text: Posted October 23, 2012 No, its a false market. The companies sold the product below cost to the companies that we rented them from. The consumer had no choice in what type they could rent. Thus the competition, Betamax, was destroyed. There is no such thing as a "false market", a market is where goods or services are offered for sale - that describes the situation perfectly. It was a market. Companies often sell things at or below cost, they are called "loss leaders". If every market that had loss leaders was a "false market" then no market would exist.

Anyone been to Tonga? Looking to set up a november trip...
Gotta ask... Why Tonga?
I knew someone from there and they were not fans after moving to the Philippines for a few years then to the US. It's really remote.
I've wanted to go to Tonga since reading an article in surfer back in the 90's
I seem to remember the claim then of lots of world class waves and very little in the way of crowds
Let us know what you find if you go
Truth, or are they trying to keep it under wraps? Oipaul, looks like you may have the hookup if you can get last minute flights from HI and keep an eye on the swell.

All that stuff about 'honour,' 'Queensberry rules,' 'playing the game,' and what not will go by the board.
On a pane of glass at the Queensberry Arms, Sanquhar, he inscribed the following.
For Queensberry had been wise with the wisdom of Hamilton and Athole.
Gentlemen, it will be a fight to a finish—Markis o' Queensberry rules.
The Marquis of Queensberry should have lived to see this, he thought.
Queensberry was there almost every night, and someone introduced me to him.
The house of lords had already decided the matter, in admitting the duke of Queensberry upon his being created duke of Dover.
The witnesses have already been described in connection with the Queensberry case.
Gay died in 1732 at the Duke of Queensberry's house, and Pope grieved that one of his nearest and longest ties was broken.
I am sure I would do as much for the Duchess of Queensberry, if she desired it.


text: I am in the market for a handful of mid-range RTW suits available as separates (as I have a 4" drop). I absolutely insist on several features, including DV jackets and FF trousers. Charles Tyrwhitt's offerings fit the bill (and I am impressed by functional cuffs and a floating canvas), but I am annoyed that all the trousers have only a single hip (rear) pocket. I am wondering whether a competent tailor would be able to add a second, and if so, how substantial I might expect to be his fee.

Study: DASH Diet may help prevent type 2 diabetes
A University of South Carolina study has found that a well-known eating plan that emphasizes vegetables, fruits and low-fat dairy products may prevent type 2 diabetes.
Researchers from the Arnold School of Public Health examined the impact of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet on type 2 diabetes among whites, African Americans and Hispanics. Their findings are published in the August issue of Diabetes Care.
Dr. Angela Liese, an Arnold school researcher and the study's lead author, said the DASH diet, developed by the National Institutes of Health, has long been recognized for its ability to reduce blood pressure and the risks for hypertension. In fact, it has been recommended by the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
"But to the best of our knowledge, the DASH dietary plan has not been studied for its potential to reduce the risk for diabetes," she said. "Our study showed that people who adhered more closely to the recommendations of the DASH eating plan had a much lower risk for diabetes."
Arnold School researchers analyzed the dietary intake of 862 participants in the national Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS). Participants completed a thorough dietary assessment of 114 food items, and researchers organized their food choices into the eight DASH food groups: grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, meats, nuts/seeds/legumes, fats/oils and sweets.
At a five-year follow-up visit, IRAS participants were checked for type 2 diabetes.
The evaluation of this data found that following a diet closely resembling that of the DASH eating plan was associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes among whites but not in blacks or Hispanics, said Liese, who said that one constraint of the study may have been a limited number of minorities in IRAS.
"The DASH diet, with its emphasis on vegetables, fruits, low-fat dairy products, nuts, seeds and whole grains and its limits on meat, poultry, eggs, fats and oils, certainly makes this eating plan a likely candidate for diabetes prevention," Liese said.
"The DASH diet offers a healthy approach to eating, and we believe that further studies are warranted to show its effectiveness in preventing a disease that has virtually become an epidemic in our nation," she said.

text: I do not have a black dress shirt. I have four. Don't ask. The prevailing opinion is that the black dress shirt is simply not a wise choice, under almost all circumstances. I'd like to throw out a few examples which might bolster an argument to the contrary. Personally, I'm starting to agree that wearing a black dress shirt is a no-no. Nevertheless, Could this be borderline acceptable? Yes, it is a black dress shirt, but I think the brown jacket/belt/shoes(presumably) offset it appropriately and elevate the whole look. I think it would be hard to argue that this look is a total failure, could you? Why? This one is slightly more dressy. Could even be worn in a business casual office, perhaps. Again, additional colors (purple/brown) make it less depressing and more cohesive as an outfit. If you disagree, why? This one is technically not a black dress shirt, since it has some sort of partially visible print on it. But the idea is very similar and I think this dude carries it off well. I am playing devil's advocate here, since I'm about to purge my black shirts. Or maybe not. Thoughts?

ANAHEIM - The Angels certainly are playing the right team at the right place to launch a winning streak.
They beat the New York Yankees 6-2 on Saturday at Angel Stadium in front of 40,486 to extend their winning streak to three games and continue their home-field domination. It was their 27th win over the Yankees in their last 39 games at home against the perennial American League contenders.
Howie Kendrick continued his blazing hitting with a 3-for-3 day and a walk, giving him 21 hits in his last 37 at-bats and a .419 average in his last 29 games. Mike Trout reached base four times and scored twice and Tommy Hanson struck out eight in 6 1/3 innings.
The Angels still have a long way to go before they can use the word "contention" in a sentence, but three wins in hand, a finale against the Yankees today and seven more home games has set them up to at least hum the word.
"We did a good job," manager Mike Scioscia said. "The last two games especially, on defense, in the bullpen and the starters getting deep.
"Tommy pitched a great one, especially since they were pressuring him with bunts and steals. When he needed a big pitch, he made one."
The biggest one for Hanson came in the seventh. The Angels led 3-2 when Ichiro Suzuki bunted for a single and stole second and third with no outs.
Scioscia left Hanson in to face Thomas Neal and Hanson struck him out. The Angels manager then summoned left-hander Scott Downs to face left-hander Reid Brignac, and Downs getting him on a full count breaking ball. Right-hander Michael Kohn then struck out Chris Stewart on three pitches.
"That was the most confident I felt all year," said Hanson, acquired in the offseason but slowed by injuries early. "I'm getting back into a rhythm.
"I threw the ball well in the bullpen (before the game) and carried it over into the game."
Neal, Brignac and Stewart hardly conjure images of the Bronx Bombers. New York is handcuffed by injuries. Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez haven't played a game, Curtis Granderson has a broken wrist, Kevin Youkilis just went on the disabled list for the second time and Mark Teixeira missed two months with torn tissue in his right arm. He left Saturday's game with a strain in the same area.
But Saturday's win still required quality efforts.
"Yeah they're banged up, but they've been pitching well and have a deep bullpen and have been able to hang on to leads," Scioscia said. "We needed to be in a position where we had a lead late when we could hand the ball to our bullpen."
The unreliable 'pen was solid Saturday. Besides Downs and Kohl, Kevin Jepsen had a 1-2-3 eighth and Ernesto Frieri struck out the side in the ninth.
Meanwhile, Kendrick remained ablaze, Albert Pujols had a pair of run-scoring, two-out singles and Trout did what a lead-off man needs to do in getting on base.
Kendrick isn't interested in analyzing his streak.
"It's really all see the ball and hit it, that's all I can tell you," he said. "Right now we're getting a lot of production from a lot of guys and we're getting opportunities to make big hits."
The Angels grabbed a 1-0 lead in the second when shortstop Erick Aybar got a 3-2 fastball from Yankees starter David Phelps and dropped a flyball into the first row of the seats just inside the right-field foul pole for his second home run of the season.
Hanson, making just his eighth start, retired the first seven Yankees before giving up a two-out single to Stewart. Brett Gardner followed with a triple off the wall in right to score Stewart. Jayson Nix hit a hard grounder at third baseman Alberto Callapson that took a sharp hop off his glove to score Gardner and give the Yankees a 2-1 lead.
Trout tied the game in the bottom of the third. He singled with one out, stole second, took third on an infield groundout and scored on Pujols' single to center.
In the sixth, Mark Trumbo walked, Kendrick singled and Aybar single to left to score Trumbo and make it 3-2.
After getting out of the seventh, the Angels seized that rally-killing momentum with a rally of their own. Josh Hamilton singled home a run after Peter Bourjos' single and a Trout walk, and Kendrick drew a bases-loaded walk for a 5-2 lead. Pujols singled home another run in the eighth for a four-run cushion.

Zyliss Ice Cream Scoop
This ice cream scoop, scooper thing is da bomb. Literally. Okay, so that sounded really dorky, but still. I know Zyliss is more famous for it's wine stopped and champagne stoppers/re-corkers? And I don't use those because I don't drink, but my parents love them and we always have a bunch. But when I saw this ice cream scoop in my local grocery store I was kind of skeptical but trying it out the first time I was very impressed with it! It's cheap and does have a nice thumb grip and it does slide through hard ice cream leaving less time between me and a bowl of Rocky Road. I got disappointed though when I saw the website and it has these scoopers in not only white but orange, pink, green, and blue as well. Cause I would have so bought the orange one.' Did I also mention that this ice cream scoop was a RedDot Design winner in 2003.....not sure what that means, but it seems prestigious.

Can someone clarify submitting field notes versus logging your finds (or dnf's)? With this app, there is a place under settings to submit saved field notes. When I did that, I was surprised to see that it actually posted logs to the respective caches. I was expecting to have to go to the website and access my field notes, and then do the logging from there.

I haven't bought the app myself yet, but Minnesotabrad was showing it to me yesterday, and from what I remember there is a selection of some sort near the logs that you can choose between on and off, something about post automatically to gc.com maybe... but when it is set to On it goes straight in as a log, when it is set to off your log goes into your Field Notes section of your profile, much like if you have an Oregon or Colorado and upload them.

Yep, I came back here to post that. I'd have to look it up to say exactly the option, but now when I hit submit, they get put under field notes. I like it that way because I can then add more comments when I can touch type, as opposed to phone-typing.

I have a Droid X and have been using various free apps to GC. I recently got the GS app and like it so far. I like the fact that it's an official app and doesnt have to jump through hoops to access the data (ie no illegal scraping).
The problems I have is accuracy. I had a cache the other day that had me at the curb and pointed me 23 feet into rush hour traffic.
Im starting to think that the Droid is a good way to find the caches on the go, but I seriously need to get a GPSr for the GZ navigating.
But as a noob, I have no idea what to get.

This could end up being a whole new discussion on it's own, but you're right - the Droid is good for getting you to the general area but that's it. Remember, the Droid's a phone, not a GPS. It's good at being a phone. It's not good at being a GPS.

My Android phone (HTC Aria) finally got me off my butt to actually go find our first cache. It's worlds more sensitive than the eTrex I've had for years.
But it's not all that great when I close in on GZ, getting indecisive. We saw nearly everyone using a Garmin 60CSx at a WNC meet back in September, and ran right out and got one on sale. It is even more sensitive than the phone, much more durable, and its batteries last all day.
I still use the Geobeagle app for paperless caching (to view hints, past logs, write notes, check Google Maps, etc.) Tinkering with GSAK has made the 60CSx a better stand-alone unit, but it's nice to have a good backup. As the Android apps improve, the combination will become even better.

The problems I have is accuracy. I had a cache the other day that had me at the curb and pointed me 23 feet into rush hour traffic.
I had the same problem when I started caching. I spent half an hour in the middle of the crosstown trying to find a GeoPierce puzzle. Later I learned that puzzles are not at the posted location.
Ahhhhhhhh, the power of cheese!

I recently got a Garmin-Asus gps/phone which is an android
Purchased the Geocaching app and found it to be well worth the money (I tried c:geo and hated it)
One major glitch is you can't delete individual caches nor mark the found ones so you have to keep a text log or you will be backtracking to ones you already found.
Big pluses though - you can log as you find and find caches near your current location so it's great for cold caching on trips etc. Also you can import gpx files and download pocket query's on the go.
Better yet - GeoBeagle which does much of the same however in geobeagle you can post a find or dnf and it will remove the found cache and mark dnf's with a frown.
I use both in tandem and find it's the best of both worlds. Now geobeagle is designed to interact with bcaching.com however I found out that is not the way to go. set our geobeagle to sync with sdcard or where your gpx files are located on the phone. In this manor you can use the file manager app to move gpx files in or out and sync with various files.
I used to use my GPS60sx and now almost never use it - I do carry it along just in case I loose phone coverage as the downside to a gps phone is you must have 3 or 4g connections to do the querry's etc. This is not required for geobeagle if you have the gpx file onboard.
BTW geobeagle is free. and the Geocaching app is $10 - well worth the cost.

If you submit your find to geocaching.com (as opposed to "save and dismiss"), you can back a screen and re-"find nearby caches" and it will exclude the one you just posted.

This is true if you do a find near me cache but if your going off a loaded gpx file than you can't.

There are now many Geo apps out there and most are free (ad banners) other are a one time purchase price.
GeoBeagle is one I use the most and it does everything I want an app to do. I don't log real time but rather create field notes. Nice thing is once you log the cache is removed from your list.
The Geocaching app is also perfect except for one giant flaw - you can log your finds real time however the cache is not removed from your list. This is a major pain and I tend to avoid this product for this reason only.
I just updated my phone to 2.1 so the neongeo app now loads. It's a bit early to tell but I am thinking it will work OK but the interface is a bit clunky and it seems more geared towards urban caching rather than rural. But in all fairness I need to use it a bit.
As far as price - it's just $10 for the most expensive and under and it's a one time purchase price - that's dirt cheap comparing the prices one spends for computer software.
In my rankings to date

My Six Year Old Girl Seems to Ignore Everything I Say
My kid is smart. She answers my questions smartly but sometimes she shouts at me when she doesn't want me talking or correcting her mistakes. All I do is hold her hand and talk in the nicest way I can and tell her she's acting bad. She just thumps her feet and makes faces. I ask her if she understood what I just said and she answers, "yes, mommy!" and that's it, no shouting. After some days will pass, there she goes again shouting at me when I tell her to do things. I'm really going crazy and I do not know how to discipline her.

Hi char_june,
Your daughter will start respecting you consistently once you start correcting her consistently and demanding that she treat you with respect.
When I say "demand", I don't me yelling at her, but rather that you let her know that you will not allow her to yell at you... that you will not allow her to stomp her feet or make faces when you are speaking to her. What I mean is that you need to consistently correct her, every single time she ignores you or her words/actions/body language says that she is showing disrespect.
This can be very emotionally and physically draining when you're training her multiple times a day, but consistency is the key.
Disciplining and training a child is something that is much easier to do if you start when they are between one and two years of age. Often you can "nip it in the bud" when you are consistent when they are very young. This doesn't mean that you can't change things now - I only mention that in case you have another child in the future.
I'd like to give you an example of how to correct your six year old when she shows you disrespect.
Let's say you've told her to turn the TV off, and she shouts "no". This is not acceptable behavior and you need to correct it immediately.
You would then quietly walk over to the TV and turn it off, and then turn to her and look into her eyes and say in a stern voice, "I won't let you talk to me like that. When I ask you to do something you must do it the first time, with a smile on your face."
Next you can roll play. You can say, "Let's try this again. I'm going to turn the TV on, and then I'm going to ask you to turn the TV off, and you need to respond by saying, "Yes, mummy", and then get up and turn the TV off."
Once she understands what you're going to do, you can set the scene and roll play so that she practices the proper response.
This can also be done if your child is rude in the grocery store. You can practice a proper response when you get home.
It can be very helpful to use things she likes as leverage. This will actually come easily once you do it a few times. An example of this would be...
You ask your daughter to turn the TV off, and she says "no". So you say, you need to turn the TV off now, or you will not get to watch anymore TV today and you won't get to watch any tomorrow either. Or if you go swimming and your daughter doesn't obey when you tell her to stop splashing, you can say, "you need to stop splashing now, or you will have to get out of the pool and you won't be able to go swimming the next time.
Please post back if you have any specific scenarios which you need suggestion on handling. Obviously if your daughter is going to throw herself on the floor and kick and scream, that will require other tactics.
Ultimately what you want is your daughter's heart. You want her to want to please you. If you can train her to respond properly and promptly, with a good attitude now, you may be able to avoid the typical rebellion that comes during the teenage years.
Warm Regards,

Hi Char_june, you should be consistent to her, if you say no, you should show her that it is a no no. You should be able to control her not her controlling you. Me I have 6 years old son and he have mild autism. It's been really hard for me at first because he doesn't listen to me and ignore me. But after I listen to his therapy about what to do. It's a miracle! Also, communication is really important. Give time for our love ones, play with them, understand them and know everything about them. Specially me, I have to know everything, when he is going to pee, poop, if there something hurt, if he is uncomfortable. Because he cannot express it. Same with other kids. We should respect them and know there limitations. We have to be firm but loving.
Hope things get well with you and your daughter,

GOIN' BACK: When we asked readers last week to mention the places they miss most about an older version of today's Big Town, we didn't realize how many beloved places have slipped out of town.
More than 100 restaurants, stores, bars, buildings and attractions were cited by readers as the best parts of The Missing Long Beach. You could build an entire town, practically, out of the submissions from Long Beachers. We're just going to put this together alphabetically:
Acres of Books downtown
Burgermaster hamburger stand in Los Altos
The Crest Theater in Bixby Knolls
Dooley's Hardware in North Long Beach
Egyptian Pharmacy in Belmont Shore
Food Fair in Los Altos
Golden Lantern restaurant in the Plaza/Los Altos
Hamburger Henry's in Belmont Shore
Inner Sanctum Tavern in Belmont Shore
Java Lanes on Pacific Coast Highway
Ken's Restaurant in Bixby Knolls
Los Altos Bakery in the Los Altos Shopping Center
Miss Universe Pageant, held in Long Beach from 1952 to 1959
Northwoods Inn restaurant in Belmont Shore
Oscar's Drive-In restaurant in North Long Beach and at the Traffic Circle
The Pike, downtown on the waterfront
Quigley's department store, in Belmont Shore and the Plaza
Rusty's restaurant in the Wrigley district
Shady Acres (miniature) Golf Course in North Long Beach
Tracy Theater on the Pike on Seaside Way
Uncle Al's Toy Corral in the Plaza
Valentine's on Anaheim Street
Wanda's Cafe on 62nd Place on the peninsula
The X-rated movie houses downtown in the 1970s.
The YMCA building downtown
Zody's Department Store in East Long Beach
And we could do it again, except without the X, working backward this time:
Zed Records off the Traffic Circle
The unbreakable YWCA building on Sixth Street downtown
Xylophone, x is always for xylophone.
Welch's restaurant in Bixby Knolls
Virginia Country Market in Los Cerritos
Uncle John's Pancake House on PCH
Tastee Freeze on Carson Street
Scotty's Pet Store in the Plaza
Rainbow Pier downtown
Quickie Chickie in Los Altos
The Plaza Theater in the Plaza
Old Mexico Cafe in the East Village
Nu-Pike, like the Pike, but Nu-er
Mike's Munchies, downtown and Marina Pacifica
Lonnie's Sporting Goods in the Los Altos Shopping Center
Koon's Motorcycles on Anaheim Street
Jolly Roger in the old Seaport Village
Imperial Hardware in downtown
The Hot Dog Show downtown
Green's Hardware (Horace Green & Sons) in the Los Altos Shopping Center
Fiddlers Three restaurants, several locations in Long Beach
Eddie's Bar on Broadway at Redondo Avenue
Drive-in theaters, particularly the Los Altos Drive-in and the Circle Drive-in
The Cyclone Racer at the Pike
The Blue Cafe on downtown's Promenade
Alfred's restaurant in Bixby Knolls.
Could we do it again? Nope, but we've got a lot of leftovers, including some of our favorites, our old Hindquarter restaurant in Naples, Hody's, Curries Ice Cream, Lions Drag Strip, Arnold's Family Restaurant, the Musical Jewel Box, Steak-o-Rama, Bogart's, Kiddie Land, Pierpoint Landing, the Towne Theater....
But, is it really a good idea to live in the past? Or should we start building our future, one day to be remembered fondly after that, too, is dismantled?
Maybe later we'll do that. Today we're happier way-backin': Platterpus Records, Licorice Pizza, dangerous park equipment, vacant lots on every block, the Thriftimart lunch counter, the Belmont Theater, Builders Emporium, Plaza Lanes bowling alley, Sad Sack's, the arcades at the Pike, Unimart....

The motor can be sold in one complete assembly with the field and transmission (such as in many cordless drills) or sold separately from the field and various gears. The most common reason motor go bad is due to overuse; prolonged use will overheat the motor. If the motor has a separate armature, inspect the commutator (where the brushes contact) and confirm no sections are badly burnt or missing. If you hear grinding, most likely one or more gears have sheared and need to be replaced.

On this summer Saturday in Internetland, where everyone is an expert, here's an image we could all benefit from:
Everybody, myself included, loves to feel right. This extends to religious people, atheists, scientists, and pundits (especially pundits). One thing that worsens this addiction to being right is becoming an "expert" – for example, earning a PhD or gaining public recognition in a field. I've noticed this tendency in myself over the years in my doctoral program.

Hi there,
I am working through the Build Database Driven Website with PHP and Mysql by Kevin Yank edition 4.
I am having a problem connecting to my ijdb database when I use: include $SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT'] . '/includes/db.inc.php'; I am able to connect to the database when I don't use the include but have the connection code in my controller file. So the issue is with the $SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT'] which doesn't seem to work?
In the actual db.inc.php, I have ensured the connection details are correct: $link = mysqli_connect('127.0.0.1', '*****', '*******');
So is there any reasons why include $SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT'] won't work? Do I need to specify something in a php config file or something?
Ensure the DOCUMENT_ROOT is indeed pointing to the location your includes folder is located in.
Hi cpradio,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Sorry are you suggesting that I add: var_dump($SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT']); to my php config file? Or do I need to add this in each file has an include ?
Or do I add the line: var_dump($SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT']); in my controller file?
Thanks for you help.
Make a test.php and then echo var_dump($SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT']) ; to see what the output says.
string(28) "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
Okay, and what is the file path to your includes folder? Is it /Library/WebServer/Documents/includes?
The project path and the include folder (using a Mac):
The path of my controller file:
In the controller file the include path to my database connection file: include $SERVER['DOCUMENTROOT'] . '/includes/db.inc.php';
Is the Document_Root wrong and needs changed? I am running on 127.0.0.1 and not localhost.
Yes, you will need to edit your apache configuration to point to the directory that contains your includes folder.
OR, you can change the include to be an absolute path to your /includes/db.inc.php file, like so
include 'C:/Users/MyName/Sites/MyPHP/sitepointphp/chapter7/includes/db.inc.php';
hi cpradio,
Yes the absolute path works fine, and should do for now as I am only working through a book project. However I think I would change the DOCUMENT_ROOT if I were publishing this on a real server!
Really appreciate the time taken to help.
Best regardsVolterony
You should read up on apache virtual hosts. It will allow you to have site specific directives, such as the document root.

LISTEN: TLC releases new track - 'Meant To Be'
TLC is giving fans a taste of their forthcoming 20th anniversary album, 20.
This week, the group released a new track titled "Meant To Be." The surviving members of TLC - T-Boz and Chilli - teamed up with Ne-Yo to write the song, which takes on the theme of a partnership so strong that it lasts through all the tough times. That subject is prominently showcased on the track's hook through lyrics singing that "it ain't going to be easy, but no matter what, baby we're meant to be."
TLC's 20 is set to hit stores on October 15th. The group will also be the subject of an upcoming biopic titled "CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story." The film will debut on VH1 on October 21st.

With one 20-minute news conference, Frank Coleman publicly declined the position of premier of Newfoundland and Labrador, announced his exit from provincial politics and left Newfoundlanders and Labradorians without any idea as to when they might get a vote on their future.
It was, Coleman said, a matter of family.
"A significant and challenging family matter has arisen over the last week that will see me unable to continue onto the (Progressive Conservative party) convention in July and, hence, unable to take the office of premier," he said, seated before microphones and cameras at the Holiday Inn in St. John's Monday afternoon.
"I know after this past week that I can no longer offer the undivided focus and energy that I feel would be required of me in this role. As such, I feel I would be doing a great disservice to both the PC party and the people of the province if I continued."
Coleman refused to provide further details on his decision. He said only that it was a private, family matter, had nothing to do with any political dust-ups over his former company Humber Valley Paving and had emerged in the last five days.
"This is a personal, family matter. It's my immediate family," he said.
He apologized for where it leaves his political party.
As victor-by-default in the party's leadership race — launched following the resignation of former premier Kathy Dunderdale on Jan. 22 — Coleman stood as premier-designate. His exit comes 19 days before the scheduled start of the party's convention, on July 4, when he was to be proclaimed.
It comes more than four months after the date was first set for the convention and nearly five months since Dunderdale's resignation.
Just down the road from where Coleman said his goodbyes to public life, there was the smell of freshly mowed grass and the rhythmic clanging of ongoing construction work on the exterior of Confederation Building. And yet there was no word as to when the PC party might see similar improvement to its curb appeal.
More significantly, Premier Tom Marshall could not say when the province might see its next premier or when an election might be called. Nor could he say when the PC party will lay out its vision for the future.
He said he has no intention of reversing his own plans to retire from political life, noting he was elected in 2003 and is a last remaining member of the original cabinet of premier Danny Williams, Dunderdale's predecessor.
"I gave an undertaking to the caucus that I would stay and undertake a transition from premier Dunderdale to the new premier and I'll honour that undertaking and I'll carry on.
"The caucus has asked me to carry on until we complete the leadership process and we have a new premier," Marshall said.
Informed of Coleman's decision Sunday night, Marshall insisted the resulting situation — while "embarrassing" for the party — is not an issue for the current government.
"The government will carry on. That has not been affected at all. What has happened is the PC Party has been affected," he said.
As for the future for members of a "transition team" brought in for Coleman, including new chief of staff Darrell Hynes, he said it will all be dealt with in the coming days, but did not interfere with the work of the office.
The PCs will have to come up with a new leader. That means a new leadership race and convention date.
A meeting of the political party executive has been scheduled for tonight to set out the schedule for relevant events to come.
Once the party has a new leader, that leader must call a provincial election within a year.
Liberal leader Dwight Ball spoke with TC Media by phone from Lewisporte. He said he had heard something was brewing in relation to the PC leadership, but also that rumours were only settled with Coleman's news conference.
"Even though we disagree on some things, one thing I will agree is that if you've got to choose between family and politics, family must come first. So I wish him well and wish him all the best as he works his way through those personal, family matters that he has to deal with," he said.
"If there's anything I would say in this, is we need to establish a clear timeline and we need to do it as quickly as possible," he added, taking the position the province as a whole is affected by the state of the leadership, not just the PC Party.
"By the time we get to this, we'll be six, seven months into (the process) and we still don't know when the next general election is," he said. "It's kind of uncharted waters for us right now, but there's only one way to get through it, is to put the clear timelines in place."
NDP leader Lorraine Michael said she was taken aback by Coleman's announcement.
"To say it's a surprise will be putting it mildly. It certainly is something that I don't think the people of the province could have imagined," she said.
As for the future, "maybe the elected members of cabinet will show that they have the fortitude to put their names forward, but right now I think they have shown the people of the province they don't care about the people," she said.
Municipal and Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Steve Kent told The Telegram he is "very interested" in the leadership role vacated by Coleman, but has not made a final decision whether or not to put his name forward.
Meanwhile, John Ottenheimer, a former MHA and minister of Health, has indicated his intention to run.
Other declarations, one way or another, are expected to be made in the coming days.

Sir Herbert Varney (c. 1858–1889) was a vampire who preyed upon London women in the 1880s. He was eventually caught and killed by a specially-assigned group of wizards from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. He appears on a Famous Wizard Card.[1]
Behind the scenes
- Herbert Varney may have been loosely based on Jack the Ripper, who in 1888 brutally murdered at least five women in London, but was never caught.[2]
- Although Varney is the name of places and companies,[3] and the surname of certain celebrities,[4] this character probably references Varney the Vampire or the Feast of Blood, a Gothic horror story written by James Malcolm Rymer in the 19th century, and one of the first vampire novels ever written (predating and influencing Bram Stoker's more popular Dracula).[5]
- Marvel Comics first adapted this character with the name of Varnae, a former wizard from Atlantis who became the first lord of the vampires and plagued the likes of Conan the Barbarian[6] and Doctor Strange[7] later, Marvel Comics adapted Varney to their own continuity as a separate character.[8]

Snyder, Scott and Stephen King. American Vampire
In a graphic novel series billing itself as "a new vampire for a new century," Western outlaw Skinner Sweet is accidentally transformed into a vampire when the blood of an old European-style vampire splashes across his mortally wounded body. No one realizes that Sweet is undead in his grave—until years later when graverobbers dig him up and get a terrifying surprise. Sweet is a different breed of vampire than his creators; he is stronger and faster, powered by the sun and thus able to walk and hunt by day, able to transform horribly with a distended jaw and huge talon-like fingers, and with a different set of weaknesses. He proceeds to set about feuding with the old breed European vamps, mostly rich old men who seek to keep American industry under their thumbs as they did European, as well. Not until decades later does Sweet create another of his kind, and he inexplicably chooses a spunky young wanna-be actress in 1920s Hollywood, Pearl Jones, who has been abused horribly by the European vamps in charge of the studios. As the series progresses, Pearl becomes one of the focus characters, as do the descendants of the sheriff who originally sought to put Skinner Sweet behind bars—and later, in his grave.
Vibrant, colorful, and dynamic illustrations contribute effectively to this compelling new spin on the vampire story. Skinner Sweet and Pearl Jones make a perfect odd-couple of protagonists as each deals with becoming a monster in a very different way, drawn to one another despite themselves. A lot of fun!
