From Our 2014 Archives U.S. Hospitals Overuse, Misuse Antibiotics, CDC SaysHealthDay Reporter Latest Infectious Disease NewsTUESDAY, March 4, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Many hospitals across the United States overuse or misuse antibiotics, which fuels the growth of drug-resistant bacteria, federal health officials warned Tuesday. Doctors in some hospitals prescribe three times more antibiotics than doctors in the same departments at other medical centers, according to a new report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "We have to protect patients by protecting antibiotics," CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden said during a noon press briefing Tuesday. "The drugs we have today are in danger, and any new drugs we get could be lost just as quickly if we don't improve the way we prescribe and use them." The agency outlined ways hospitals can improve their prescribing practices through recommended "antibiotic stewardship" programs. The CDC also is seeking a $30 million increase in the fiscal 2015 budget to help identify antibiotic-resistant germs, Frieden said. "Antibiotics are nothing short of miracle drugs, and it's important that antibiotics are used promptly whenever needed," he said. The way to preserve them is to not use them when they're not essential, experts say. Unnecessary antibiotic use exposes patients to potential complications without any medical benefit. One such complication is Clostridium difficile infection, according to the CDC Vital Signs report. A 30 percent reduction in use of antibiotics that open the door for C. difficile could reduce these serious infections by more than one-quarter, according to the report. Diarrhea caused by C. difficile is linked to 14,000 deaths in the United States each year, according to the CDC. Overuse of these same antibiotics also increases the likelihood that patients will come down with super-resistant infections in the future, officials said. CDC researchers reviewed antibiotic prescriptions at more than 300 hospitals in 2010 and found more than half of hospital patients got an antibiotic during their stay. Most prescriptions for antibiotics are written for urinary tract infections, lung infections and infections caused by drug-resistant Staphylococcus bacteria, such as MRSA. One-third of the prescriptions for vancomycin -- often considered an antibiotic of last resort -- and one-third of antibiotics prescribed to treat urinary tract infections were ordered without proper testing or evaluation. Or they were prescribed for too long, the report found. Having a formal approach to this problem is a way of holding doctors accountable, said Dr. Marc Siegel, an associate professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City. "This is an important step," he said. "Over-prescription is a huge problem when it comes to antibiotic resistance." To curb misuse and abuse of antibiotics in hospitals, the CDC recommends:
Frieden said he believes antibiotic resistance can be overcome if the CDC-recommended steps are instituted throughout the country. "It's not too late. We can reverse drug resistance," Frieden said. With funding, it would be possible to reduce the rate of C. difficile by half in five years, "preventing thousands of deaths, hospitalizations and health care costs," he said. "If we lose our antibiotics, not only will we lose our treatment of primary infections, but the treatment of other infections that complicate many other conditions," Frieden said.

In 2005 and 2006, the biggest little city in the world (aka Reno, Nevada) issued approximately $211 million in securities employing Goldman, Sachs & Co. as its sole underwriter and broker-dealer. The financing didn't work out and Reno initiated arbitration proceedings against Goldman, Sachs before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Goldman, Sachs filed an action in federal court to enjoin the arbitration. Goldman v. City of Reno, 2014 U.S. App. LEXIS 5894 (9th Cir. 2014)
Apophasis and The Meaning of Customer
The city relied on FINRA rule 12200 which requires parties to arbitrate disputes when requested by a customer. Thus, the first issue was whether the city was a customer, with the city contending that it was a customer and Goldman, Sachs taking the opposite view. This threshold definitional question would seem to be easy, but for the fact that FINRA defines "customer" not be describing what a customer is, but by stating what a customer is not. According to FINRA, a "customer shall not include a broker or dealer". FINRA Rule 12100(i). The Ninth Circuit resolved the question by enunciating what a customer is and is not:
[A] "customer" is a non-broker and non-dealer who purchases commodities or services from a FINRA member in the course of the member's FINRA-regulated business activities, i.e., the member's investment banking and securities business activities.
With this definition in mind, the Ninth Circuit found that "Reno easily qualifies as Goldman's 'customer.'"
The Penumbra of Actions and Proceedings
Goldman, Sachs was more successful with its other argument – even if Reno is a customer for purposes of FINRA Rule 12200, the city disclaimed its right to arbitrate by agreeing to forum selection clauses in the broker-dealer agreements. These clauses provided that "all actions and proceedings . . . shall be brought in the . . . District of Nevada". The question for the Court of Appeals was whether this language, which makes no mention of arbitration, clearly and unambiguously disclaimed any right to FINRA arbitration?
In addressing this question, the Ninth Circuit acknowledged the courts have not consistently reached the same conclusion. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals and the District of Minnesota have held that an identical forum selection clause does not supersede the FINRA member's obligation to arbitrate while two judges in the Southern District of New York have held that "materially identical" clauses "trump FINRA Rule 12200 . . .". UBS Fin. Servs., Inc. v. Carilion Clinic, 706 F.3d 319 (4th Cir. 2013); UBS Sec. LLC v. Allina Health Sys., No. 12-2090, 2013 WL 500373 (D. Minn. Feb. 11, 2013); Goldman, Sachs & Co v. N.C. Mun. Power Agency No. One, No. 13-CV-1319, 2013 WL 6409348, at *7 (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 9, 2013); and Goldman, Sachs & Co. v. Golden Empire Schools Fin. Auth., 922 F. Supp. 2d 435 (S.D.N.Y. 2013). After working through the city's arguments, the Ninth Circuit held that the forum selection clauses negated Goldman, Sach's default obligation to arbitrate under FINRA Rule 12200.

Point: Ed Holliday
As Tupelo explores ways to best educate our children, can we think out of the box? When farmers first started plowing with tractors they copied the time-honored techniques of making 40-inch rows in their fields. Why? They did this because for generations a 40-inch row allowed enough space for a mule to walk between the rows. Decades went by before farmers discovered greater crop yields as they dismantled the 40-inch row tradition.
Now Tupelo students (grades 6-12) have computers and like the farmers plowing 40-inch rows we are approaching education like we have for generations. Changes are not coming down from the top, they are happening, for example, as innovations like Khan Academy are actually "flipping" classrooms.
What does "flipping" the classroom mean? Instead of the teacher explaining the concept and children doing "homework" at home, innovative teachers are now sending children home to learn the concept at www.khanacademy.org and then actually reinforcing the learning with the "homework" in class. The students can actually use the computer to view the new concept from Khan Academy over and over until it's grasped.
Traditional education (including bus time) involves some children giving nine hours a day five days a week to be educated and then having to come home to do "homework." But the total amount of real learning time usually boils down to about three hours a day. We can do better for our children.
Why does every student have to come to school each day? If some students prove they can do better learning at home and then doing two days of reinforcement and testing then why not? Can private schools, public schools, and home school parents work in partnerships together for the greater benefit of everyone? Of course they can. But there must be a new concept in education to allow each student the very best of a personalized, inclusive, and innovative education environment.
Tupelo could develop this. From the city that shook up the world with Elvis, we should not be afraid to build something new using all the pillars of strength in our community.
Counterpoint: James Hull
If it were only that simple. But it's not.
What the Tupelo School District needs is much more than a few tweaks in instructional methodology. The problems with the Tupelo Public School District are pervasive – as in other school districts across the state.
Below I will list my top 10 ways for every school district, including the TPSD, to achieve three basic goals:
1. Improve every student's academic performance by one letter grade.
2. Increase discipline and decrease security personnel.
3. Decrease the disproportionate number of suspensions, expulsions and adverse disciplinary actions against any one segment of the student population.
The big 10:
1. Let's start with the way we select and appoint school board members: Take the good ole boy politics out of it. I propose a selection committee which represents a cross-section of parents, students and educators.
2. Hire administrators who won't just give lip service to "innovative, forward thinking."
3. Scrap the current teacher recruiting process. Recruit teachers who believe that education is a calling and a mission, not an entry-level job into the larger world of work. Students know and respond to teachers who are committed, and care about them. Prospects should be interviewed on their sense of spirituality – not religion or religious beliefs – and their commitment to mission.
4. Decentralize the student population and re-establish neighborhood attendance centers to decrease busing time, logistics and associated expenses
5. Put some funds into a strong Parental Involvement component.
6. Create an independent office of Ombudsman to reinforce an environment of ethical responsibility and instructional integrity.
7. Incorporate Values Clarification, Conflict Management and Effective Study into the instructional curriculum.
8. Expand the Performing Arts curriculum for Creative Writing and Spoken Word.
9. Get involved in the Parents for Public Schools organization.
10. Incorporate a dress code requiring students to wear uniforms.
I can hear the boo-birds on all sides already, especially regarding the uniforms. But what do you want, a safe, productive educational environment, or one where your students stand out for the wrong reasons?

Purcell set three of Taylor's poems, revelling in their vivid language and sentiments and countering their strong texts by adding his own extraordinary harmonic twists and turns. The continuo rhythmically tramp the road to Damascus whilst Saul is 'belching nought but chains and death': Purcell illustrates the light that blinds him with a series of extraordinarily harmonised melismas on 'glorious'. The inexorable progress of the continuo is briefly halted at 'On his amazed eyes it night did fling' before Saul continues his journey, now converted from 'a child of wrath' to become a 'vessel full of glory'. The setting closes with a prayer that God should 'curb us in our dark and sinful way', as we 'down horrid precipices run'. Purcell sets 'down' with especial emphasis.

Mozilla Rakes in $53M
Firefox might be free, but that doesn't mean Mozilla is in the poorhouse. Although some speculated on one, higher, figure, Mitchell Baker, chair of the Mozilla Foundation, said that Mozilla made just under $53 million in 2005.
The 2005 revenue figure is a dramatic jump from previous years for Mozilla. Baker noted that 2004 revenues were only $5.8 million, while 2003 revenues were less than half of that at $2.4 million.
Baker attributed the growth in revenue to the popularity and growth of Mozilla's flagship browser Firefox 1.0, which launched in November 2004. In 2006, Mozilla released Firefox 2.0.
Baker reported that the bulk of Mozilla's 2005 revenue came from search engine relationships. She did not disclose or name the search engine vendor in her official report, though it is widely known that Mozilla has a strategic relationship with Google.

NoSmoke wrote:So in the Fall of 1943 the POW's, Guards and my Great-Grandfather commenced to partake in a little hard cider. It was the first alcohol the guards and POW's had taken in large quantities in awhile, so about 9 PM they decided to keep the party rolling and run a few more barrels out of the barn. They had a roaring good time until the wee hours of the morning when they went back to the POW camp in Bangor. The commander of the camp was quite perturbed and even more upset when he saw how sloshed both the POW's and the Guards were. That day he set out for my Great Grandfather's farm to inquire about the irrational behavior, and when asked my Great Grandfather admitted what he had done.
"But you have seven boys fighting them over in Germany. What in the world are you doing getting them drunk?"
"Well the tradition here is, when the potato are in the barn, we have a little party by getting the cider barrels out, and they did a fine job of harvesting the potatoes and German or not, they deserved a little fun." As they talked however, the Commander of the Base had to sample some of the cider in question, and it is my understanding that not a word of this ever reached the War Dept down in Washington DC.
Hey that's the feel-good story of the week!
Here's how the Germans treated our boys...
"If the hell inflicted on the Americans was different from the hell inflicted on the Russians, it was only by degree—especially during the war's final months. A series of long, single-story buildings housed the fliers. Each one was divided into halves shared by 150 to 240 men (and sometimes many more), who also shared straw-filled, flea-ridden mattresses in triple-deck bunks, a single stove with scant fuel (54 pounds of coal per week), wash basins into which cold water ran only a few hours each day, and a single indoor latrine for use after dark (for daytime use, there were multi-hole latrines a short walk from the barracks). Hot water and showers were as rare as toothbrushes, combs, and toilet paper. Together with diarrhea and dysentery, the poor hygiene made life at Stalag 17-B precarious."

Amazon.com's 1984 Problems Are Just Beginning
Paul SweetingApparently, Amazon.com (AMZN) CEO Jeff Bezos' abject apology for remotely nuking copies of 1984 and Animal Farm from hundreds of Kindle devices was not enough for one Michigan teenager.
Seventeen-year-old Justin Gawronski filed suit against the company in federal court in Seattle last week, charging Amazon with violating its own terms of service, breach of contract, and illegal hacking, among other things. The plaintiff claims the unilateral removal of 1984 from his Kindle wrecked his work on a summer reading assignment because the notes he took accompanying the e-book now referred to paragraphs and electronic pages that are no longer there. His lawyer is seeking class-action certification for the case.
If I were in Bezos' shoes I'd settle this one quickly. The issues raised in the Gawronski suit are likely to be the least of Amazon's Kindle problems going, legally and otherwise. The biggest legal problem Amazon created for itself with the attack on 1984 was revealing that it has the capability to remotely delete Kindle books in the first place.
Controversy over "Kill Switches" Even if Amazon were to promise not to do it again (as part of a settlement with Gawronski, say) it won't be possible to unring that bell. Amazon now will undoubtedly face demands (and perhaps court orders) in future copyright disputes to use its powers to zap the offending files en masse, thus turning unwitting Kindle users into legal cannon fodder. The capability could also land Amazon in the middle of the brewing controversy over software "kill switches," which may soon come complete with subpoenas from the Federal Trade Commission and "invitations" to testify before Congress.
The nonlegal problems stemming from the episode, however, could prove an even bigger headache for Amazon, and the lawsuit can only draw more attention to the e-tailer. Though some consumer rights groups have waved the episode like the bloody shirt of excessive DRM, what Amazon did wasn't really a case of digital rights management run amok. The problem was that the company didn't really have the rights it thought it had.
What Amazon did have was liability, for distributing infringing works. And in an effort to manage its liability it threw its customers under the bus. That's hardly the image Amazon wants to be projecting right now, as consumers are just starting to pay attention to e-books and e-book devices in significant numbers.
The percentage of American consumers who had never heard about e-book readers fell by more than half between the first quarter of 2008 and the second quarter of 2009, to 17% from 37%, according to a new report from Forrester Research (FORR). Meanwhile, the percentage who had seen (but not yet used) a device jumped to 36% from 21% in the same period.
Rivals Emerging At the same time, Amazon is facing its first serious competition in the e-book market, as described in a new GigaOM Pro report (subscription required). Last month, Barnes & Noble (BKS) announced the launch of a full-scale assault on the e-book market, rolling out the Barnes & Noble eBookstore and releasing an updated version of its eReader application for reading e-books on a wide range of portable and desktop devices. B&N also said it will become the exclusive e-book store provider for Plastic Logic's planned Kindle-killer when it's released early next year.
Google (GOOG) recently announced plans to make an e-commerce platform available to publishers to sell e-books directly to consumers starting later this year. Sony (SNE) is also expected to release an updated version of its pioneering e-book reader, perhaps as soon as this week, and has partnered with Google to make thousands of public domain titles available on the devices.
The 1984 and Animal Farm kerfuffle could not have come at a worse time, strategically, for Amazon, and could ultimately prove more costly than settling the Kindle case.

High-tech treasure hunt
20th August 2013The New Geocache Trail for the Yorkshire Wolds Way near Market Weighton has been an immediate success. It was first completed within about 2 hours of being launched!
The trail was launched in July 2013 on the Geocaching website. There are five caches in total with the themes Railway, Stream, Well, Quarry and Village. Each cache contains one or two letters - unscramble the letters to form two words and unlock a special prize.
The geocache route uses part of the old Market Weighton to Beverley railway line, which runs through a valley known as the Market Weighton Gap. The tracks are now gone and it forms part of the Hudson Way which forms part of the Yorkshire Wolds Way. In spring and summer the edge of the old track is carpeted with flowers.

on ambition
I've always been competitive and driven (among other things women aren't really supposed to be), and definitely career-orientated, which is why the decision to give up my Proper Job after having my son surprised me more than anyone. I still want, very badly, to be good at what I do - but freelancing has been for me a way of focussing on the part I love (finding out stuff and writing about it) and ditching the stuff I don't (office politics, managing people, tiresome greasy pole-climbing).
So it frustrates me when people automatically assume that leaving full-time work signifies the end of ambition, and a slow agreeable decline to mush: because having spent the last year talking to men and women who made the same leap, I'm more convinced than ever that it's nonsense.
Those interviews were done for the book I've been sweating blood over for more than a year, which is finally out (and whose last minute labour pains have been the reason I've been so shamefully lax about blogging lately).
*look away now if you don't want to see the obligatory plug*
*Ok, you can look again now*
I don't buy that deciding not to scrabble to the top, if to do so means sacrificing everything else that matters, indicates the end of ambition. If anything, I think it's about the multiplying of ambitions - the old desire to excel professionally, fighting against a new one to be a particular kind of hands-on parent, spouse, friend, or child to your own ageing parents. The headhunter Deborah Loudon, who spent years in HR, once told me that it's never the people you expect who quit after having a baby: it's the ferociously committed ones, the lifelong straight-A students who can't stand the idea of not being 100% on top of their game both at home and at work.
The trouble is, of course, that many employers neither recognise nor reward this more plural, diffuse ambition - or even the conventional kind when it comes surging back late in life, after the children are grown. And that's one of the reasons I wrote the book.
I know I'm lucky to have a profession that's very flexible, and to have earned enough that I could afford to take a salary hit. As the saying goes, it's all right for some. But it's not enough for it to be all right for some. It should be all right for many more men and women to do interesting work and still see the children, and with a little imagination from employers, families and government, it could be. The real failure of ambition would be to think that nothing can change.

I am still ambitious but those ambitious have changed. I want a happy well-rounded, well-socialised child who has all the opportunities she wants, I want to pick her up from school, attend plays and sports days and manage play dates. But I also want to be a success personally, to do my job well and to concentrate on my writing. It's a balancing act, socialising is the part that goes I think...
ReplyDeleteAre you perhaps only seeing "Ambition" as a subset of "Employment"?
You can be on someone or other's payroll for 40 years, and achieve "success" as conventionally measured. It pays the rent (important!) but there's more, and a baby-producer has a better chance of finding it than her partner, who still will have to deal with the negative sife of employment that you identified (office politics, managing people, tiresome greasy pole-climbing)until relief ( in the form of retirement, ill-health or redundancy) brings the whole thing to shuddering halt.
You're on a winner as you are!I think the discussion about ambition is thought provoking. I was very committed to my career but gave up when I had my first child because my husband worked very long hours and travelled a lot. Then we moved to Asia for DH job and had another child. It has now been 10 years and I am ready to re-enter the workforce. My ambition is still there but has a different focus. I am studying to change direction and enhance what I already do, which hopefully will allow for more flexible working arrangements. When the children then leave home I will already be back in work and can ramp up again, hopefully doing something where age is an advantage.
In the interim years my ambition has been focussed around helping my children become well balanced, competent human beings. I have spent time with them, made sure they ate properly, and played lots. It seems ambition changes, there are different phases and being able to adjust appropriately is a real challenge.I absolutely agree that it's the multiplying of ambitions to take the leap. I've recently made the decision to leave my job and take a year out to try and find some answers to this conundrum. If anything I am more motivated than ever to find a satisfying and exciting way to work but also have what feels like the very necessary time at home with my kids. I will read your book!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all these comments - think Navel Gazer is so right that being able to adjust appropriately to whatever phase you're in is the critical bit. (And knowing when to move out of it onto the next one maybe). And Chris - this isn't always just an issue for mothers! Ambition in those partners I think changes too, & more chance than there ever has been now (tho still not enough) to follow it...
ReplyDeleteGreat post - I struggle with the perception that now I try and work an 80% contract (ie don't work Fridays but still work weekends and 12+ hours a day... not exactly part time) I am assumed to have given up my ambition - if only my employer could realise that I have that ambition but I also want to make my job and family continue to remain in some form of equilibrium. And I now know that many of my male colleagues would kill for the opportunity to downsize a bit whilst retaining their ambition
ReplyDeleteGaby - I am just about to give up my job as a Partner in a Big 4 accounting firm, and I see this as the start of my ambition not the end. Ambition to truly do something that makes a difference, ambition to be a real father to my kids, ambition to be more than half a husband. I have seen "ambitious" people every day for 20 years in my job, working all hours that god sends at the expense of any personal life. I'm left wondering what they are ambitious for. It's an astonishingly shallow existence. I used to be a nobody on a faceless treadmill in London. I'm looking forward to being somebody again.
ReplyDeleteOne year ago I was deliberating over two choices: sit my law exams or have a baby. I chose to have a baby. To say that becoming a mother has opened my eyes to a better life is a vast understatement , but it's a start. My ambition now is to be a happy person and a positive contributor to society. I want to make sure that everything I do makes this world a better place for my little boy. I am pretty sure being a lawyer for a bank would not have achieved this so everyday I am thanking my lucky stars that I made the right decision to follow my heart's ambition, not my my head's.
I love your book Gaby, it has given me huge hope!

Making the economy more energy efficient and weaning it off fossil fuels will make it more competitive, according to a panel of experts at a January town hall event on climate change moderated by former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw in Kroon Hall.
Linda Fisher, a panelist and Dupont's chief sustainability officer, said that her company has decreased its energy use by 19 percent and increased its revenues by 40 percent since 1990, saving $3 billion to $4 billion in the process. Dupont, she said, views climate change as an opportunity to invest in new ideas and technologies.
"Either we are going to create the technologies and the jobs in America or the technologies and the jobs will be created elsewhere," she said.
Fisher was one of four panelists who discussed climate change's impact on economic opportunity and competitiveness, human health, youth and moral and religious values at the NBC News town hall event, "Changing Planet: The Impact on Lives and Values"...

Updated on 19 July 2012
Singapore: Agilent Technologies has established a new center for neurometabolomics research and training in the city of Daegu, South Korea. The center will serve as the base for the company's collaboration with the department of brain science at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology.
This is Agilent's first collaboration in Asia for metabolomics research in brain science.
Metabolomics is the study of the small molecules produced during metabolism - chemical processes in a cell or organism that are necessary for life. Through metabolomics, scientists and researchers are able to discover biomarkers for neurological diseases.
"The department of brain science at DGIST aims to facilitate neuroscience discovery and education, and apply our knowledge to improve brain health," said Professor Gabriele Ronnett, head of the neuroscience department at DGIST. "This is in line with our institute's goal of developing world-leading technology for 21st century."
"The goal of this center is not only to lead global collaborations in neurometabolomics, but to foster and train researchers who will work in this area," said Professor Eun-Kyoung Kim of the department of brain science at DGIST, soon to be appointed head of the Neurometabolomics Research and Training Center.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame celebrated its 25th birthday last night in the only way it knew how. By rocking out. Some of the biggest names in rock music including Sting and Bruce Springsteen graced the stage at Madison Square Gardens as part of the five hour concert. A further celebration is set to shake the prestigious venue tonight as the likes of Aretha Franklin and U2 provide birthday surprises.
Click here or click the image to launch our guide to the artists inducted into the Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Fame has welcomed over 150 artists since 1986 and continues to be regarded as one of the greatest honours for musicians. It's not easy to get in though. Performers must have 'influence and significance to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll' and only become eligible 25 years after their first record.
Last night's concert certainly did The Hall of Fame proud. One of the biggest cheers erupted for Art Garfunkel and Paul Simon's performance of 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' and the evening came to close with Bruce Springsteen's rendition of Jackie Wilson's '(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher' ensuring that that the audience were left with a night to remember. Last night was certainly a tough act to follow, though if the performances were anything to go by, the celebration tonight promises to be one hell of a party.

You can still access the $3,500 fridge's deeper contents through the extra door, but it's designed with internal dividers so that the main compartment doesn't have to be completely opened if you just want often-accessed snacks. This keeps most of the cold air inside, improving energy efficiency.

Trip Start
Nov 17, 2010
Trip End
Feb 27, 2011
The trip was short, only about two hours, and it involved getting out and catching a small boat across a stretch of water, then waiting for the bus to come across on a much larger ferry. After arriving in Copacabana we set off to find a hostel.
After being knocked back at the first hostel, which was one recommended by lonely planet, we tried about 10 more (no exaggeration), and there were no vacancies in any of them, except for extremely expensive private rooms. It turned out that just after New years eve many Bolivians travel to Copacabana to holiday, and most accommodation in the town was booked out.
We had two choices- either book a trip to Isla del Sol straight away, and hope there is a hostel there with vacancies, or skip Isla del Sol and head straight for Arequipa in Peru, our next destination. We chose to skip Isla del Sol, and the reed islands. I've heard mixed reviews about Lake Titicaca, some loved it, some said it was kind of boring, but we would have to wait for another time to find out ourselves.
Before we left, we ate at a local restaurant and sampled a delicious local trout dish - 'trucha al ajo y pune de papas', garlic trout with mashed potatoes.
By now I had gotten used to the border police saying "Ay, Australia! Canguros!" and imitating a kangaroo bouncing, and like clockwork, the border police at the Peruvian border said the same thing.
At the border we got a nice look at the lake with the sun setting above it, then drove all the way to Puno, on the western side of the lake, and waited an hour at the bus terminal before getting a very nice semi-cama bus to Arequipa. The company was called Cruz del Sur, and the bus was as good as one from Argentina. Arrived in Arequipa around 4am, and caught a taxi from the bus terminal to The Point hostel, that luckily had some spare beds. I'm not sure if our new roomies appreciated us
arriving with our bags and things at 5am.

They've got muck; we've got rakes. TPM Muckraker
Was Raymond Davis Bailed Out By Sharia Law?
"The court first indicted him but the families later told court that they have accepted the blood money and they have pardoned him," Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah told Reuters. "The court acquitted him in the murder case."
Last month, the German broadcaster Deutsche Welle suggested something like this could be in the works. At the time, Prime Minister Yousif Raza Gilani asked Islamic scholars in Pakistan to help find an Islamic way to solve the Davis question. American officials maintained that Davis had diplomatic immunity and demanded his release. One possible solution, Deutsche Welle reported, was "the invocation of the Qisas and Diyat Ordinance of Shariah Law in which compensation is paid to the family of the victims."
Sanaullah's comments on Wednesday suggest that is just what ended up happening. What is Qisas and Diyat? One section of the Qur'an reads as follows, according to the translation on quran.com:
And never is it for a believer to kill a believer except by mistake. And whoever kills a believer by mistake - then the freeing of a believing slave and a compensation payment presented to the deceased's family [is required] unless they give [up their right as] charity. But if the deceased was from a people at war with you and he was a believer - then [only] the freeing of a believing slave; and if he was from a people with whom you have a treaty - then a compensation payment presented to his family and the freeing of a believing slave. And whoever does not find [one or cannot afford to buy one] - then [instead], a fast for two months consecutively, [seeking] acceptance of repentance from Allah. And Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.
It's not clear yet from early reports who will be making the payments to the victims' families.
Sharia, TPM readers will recall, has become the target of many right wing conservatives in the U.S., who see it as a growing alien threat to America. Republicans in a number of states have introduced bills to ban sharia in American courts. Former House speaker, and possible presidential candidate, Newt Gingrich has called for a federal ban.
Read TPM's past coverage of the Davis case here.
Late update: A lawyer involved in the case told ABC News that $700,000 was paid to each of the victims' families.

Study Shows California Tribal Gaming Casinos Have Big Economic Impact
Wednesday, August 8, 2012
A new study shows that tribal gaming casinos have a $7.5 billion impact on California's economy.
Aired 8/8/12 on KPBS News.
A new study shows that tribal gaming casinos have a $7.5 billion impact on California's economy.
The report comes as Governor Jerry Brown considers whether to approve two new tribal casinos that would add to the 60 already in the state.
Beacon Economics conducted the study. It shows tribal gaming has helped create 52,000 jobs in industries throughout the state.
Steve Stallings is with the California Nations Indian Gaming Association which commissioned the study. He says the report also shows their casinos generate significant tax revenue. "$500 million in revenue that goes to state and local government, that actually is tax revenue. So this idea that tribes don't contribute to the tax base of the state is wrong, tribes are actually contributing significantly to the betterment of California," said Stallings.
An estimated 80 percent of workers in tribal casinos are not tribal members.
Stallings says tribal gaming operations have provided about $800 million to non-gaming tribes in the last dozen years.

The 29 cu. ft. Samsung 81093 French door bottom-freezer refrigerator holds up to two grocery bags more food than a standard refrigerator, and the ample room in the bottom freezer lets you take advantage of sales on frozen vegetables, meats, and ice cream treats! The Twin Cooling System keeps your food fresh. Two separate evaporators and fan systems maintain customized temperature and humidity in the freezer and refrigerator section to maintain food freshness. This stainless steel Samsung 8109 refrigerator's Special Cool-Select Pantry protects freeze-sensitive foods stored above the freezer with adjustable temperature setting that let you keep foods at the optimum temperature.
- This 29 cu. ft. bottom-mount refrigerator features the Guggenheim™ insulation technology that allows the exceptional 29 cu. ft. of interior space in the standard dimensions of a 36-inch refrigerator. Store up to two additional grocery bags of food in the refrigerator compared to the average refrigerator.
- The Twin Cooling Plus® technology circulates the air within the refrigerator and freezer compartments individually to maintain humidity levels and prevent odor transfer between compartments. The freezer air stays dryer, while the refrigerator's humidity level stays ideal, so even easily perishable fruits and veggies remain fresher, longer.
- With an elegant and large in-door ice and water dispenser you can fill a pitcher with water with ease. Also, don't be fooled by those thin space-saving in-door ice makers--the RFG297HD has a 6.6 lbs. of ice capacity per day.

- The Cool Select Pantry™ provides additional temperature control for food storage with Fresh, Chilled and Deli options.
- The space-saving LED lighting illuminates every corner of the refrigerator to help you easily locate your food. A cooler source of light, LED emits no heat and is much more energy efficient than traditional bulb lighting.
- A refrigerator is normally one of the most energy-consuming appliance in your home, but Samsung designed theirs to be more eco-conscious. The Samsung RFG297HD ENERGY STAR® approved model protects against wasted energy and saves you money.
- The freezer compartment has Samsung's EZ Open Handle™ system. The Samsung EZ Open Handle™ breaks the seal of the freezer compartment so you don't have to, making it a breeze to open the bottom-mounted freezer.

16 ounces beef tenderloin, pre-trimmed
8 ounces fresh spinach, cooked and drained
1 pound bacon, cooked and chopped
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Sauce:
4 ounces butter
4 ounces flour
1 quart boiling water
2 beef bouillon cubes
4 ounces cabernet sauvignon
8 ounces raw mushrooms (wild, portobello, oyster)
Split tenderloin down the middle to open it the long way (butterfly). Pound it until meat is an even thickness. Mix the spinach, bacon, and feta cheese together for the stuffing. With the tenderloin spread out flat, season with a little salt and pepper. Spread the spinach mixture on the tenderloin evenly and roll it up. Bake the tenderloin in the oven for 15 to 25 minutes at 350 degrees, to desired doneness.
To make the sauce: Melt the butter and then add the flour to make a roux. Add the wine and the water (with dissolved bouillon cubes).
Let the sauce simmer until all the flavors marry. Saute mushrooms. Add them to the sauce if you like.
Cut the tenderloin into 12 even medallions and place two on a plate on a bed of the cabernet sauvignon sauce, showing the pinwheel effect of the spinach mixture.
Yield: 6 servings

NOW that the election is over, Washington's attention is consumed by the looming combination of automatic spending cuts and tax increases known as "the fiscal cliff." That combination poses risks, including economic contraction and erosion of confidence in government. But it also offers a chance to address our unsustainable and dangerous fiscal trajectory.
Much of the current energy around establishing sound fiscal conditions is focused on plans that theoretically would both contribute revenue to deficit reduction and significantly reduce individual income tax rates. Though hugely appealing, that's a tall order.
These plans rely on reducing or eliminating many tax deductions, exclusions and the like, known collectively as tax expenditures. Reducing tax expenditures to pay for both lower personal income tax rates and deficit reduction may seem like a politically attractive alternative to raising tax rates or cutting entitlements or other spending.
However, many of these tax expenditures are important and popular policy programs on which people now rely. They include the deductibility of mortgage interest, charitable contributions and the exclusion from income of employer-provided health insurance. Some tax expenditures should be cut back and reformed. But when the substantive effects and political realities of large-scale reductions are examined, it becomes clear that there would not be sufficient savings to reduce tax rates and also cut the deficit.

Ask anyone why they hate St. Patrick's Day, and it almost always comes down to lines and crowds: Long lines outside pubs, waiting for the privilege of paying a $10 cover; elbow-to-elbow crowds at the bar, waiting to order a plastic cup full of Guinness (and then jostling you once you've finally got your drink in hand.)
Throw in a snowstorm that gave thousands of government workers and college students a free pass to spend the day pub-crawling and it could have been one of the busiest St. Patrick's Days in recent memory. Except it wasn't.
The Dubliner, celebrating its 40th St. Patrick's Day on Capitol Hill, is usually one of the most crowded pubs in the city on March 17, with lines extending down F Street to hear live Irish musicians from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. But at noon Monday, only a few dozen people were present when Jimmy Rafferty and Paddy Halligan took the stage. There was some half-hearted clapping along to "The Wild Rover" in the main pub room, while the second bar – dubbed "The President's Local" after President Obama dropped in for a St. Patrick's Day pint in 2012 – was deserted enough that a troupe of Irish dancers could have Riverdanced through without disturbing patrons.
"The biggest day of the year and the federal government is shut down," said the bar's disappointed Gavin Coleman, whose family founded the pub. He shrugged. "I hope it's going to be a big 1-to-9 [p.m.] crowd, but after all the years in this business, I've learned not to worry about things you can't control."
Coleman walked through a side dining room, which had been repurposed with a small temporary bar to serve the pub's overflow crowds. It had zero guests looking for a drink. Upstairs, a dining room had been set up for a group of 70 that has a standing reservation every St. Patrick's Day. "They called this morning and changed it to 30 because of the snow," Coleman said with a resigned tone.
It was because of the snow that Danny Johnson found himself at the Dubliner much earlier than he planned. Johnson, an OSHA inspector, had planned to meet a group of friends in Baltimore for a 7:30 a.m. St. Patrick's Day breakfast, but he thought better of it after hearing traffic reports. Instead, the 52-year-old Capitol Hill resident put on some green beads and walked over to the Dubliner to meet friends. "I would have been here anyway," he said between sips of a Guinness. "I'm always here on St. Patrick's Day. I have been every year since I turned 18, which was 1979."
Ireland's Four Provinces in Falls Church saw plenty of snow day action with a live band and excited patrons.
Things weren't much better next door at Kelly's Irish Times, where there was no cover charge. But there was plenty of room at the bar around 1 p.m. and the patio, which usually plays host to the pipes and drums of the D.C. Fire Department's Emerald Society pipe band, was blanketed with snow.
There was a bit more atmosphere at Fado in Chinatown, where an arch of green balloons stretched over the front door and Irish sports played on TVs. The bar was busier, though not packed. Several tables sported signs saying they would eventually be moved for "crowd control," but by 1:30 p.m. there wasn't much crowd to control.
In the middle of the room was a large group determined to make the most of the holiday, snow or no. Bill Nicholson of Germantown had rounded up 13 friends – "ranging in age from 23 to 62" – for a pub crawl through Washington. Nicholson, 52, had created detailed itineraries for everyone, beginning with a departure from Shady Grove Metro Station at 9 a.m. and ending at Tommy Joe's in Bethesda an indeterminate number of hours later. Fado was the crew's third stop of the day. "Our goal is to have fun and meet people," said Gary Bechdolt, 59, a telecommunications engineer who'd driven from Morgantown, W. Va, for the day.
Despite their plans, the snow hadn't put too much of a damper on the day. "We were supposed to take three other people with us, but they backed out at 7 a.m.," said Missy Goode, 62, who described herself as "the senior member" of the team. "They had to shovel their driveways or something." As she talked, one of the three missing participants arrived: Jennifer Peacock of Damascus, who'd had to shovel her car out and came straight to Fado. "You can't miss it," Goode joked. "It's St. Patrick's Day. It's tradition."
While most members of the group swore they'd gotten permission to take the day off in advance, today was a bonus for Christopher Flynn, a special education teacher at Gaithersburg High School. He had planned to use a vacation day to participate in the pub crawl, but thanks to the snow, "it's a free day," he said, adjusting his scarf and beads and getting ready to move on to the group's next stop: Murphy's Irish Pub in Woodley Park. After all, there were plenty of hours left in the day.

hello everyone
im looking for a pair of headphones under £100.
i like bassy? music like dubstep, RnB, hip hop. there doesnt have to be a tonne of isolation but i would prefer if there isnt alot of leakage. i will be mostly using them for music at home on an iphone and on my computer. i may occasionally use them for gaming but thats not as important. from the research i have done so far, im liking the shure SRH750DJ, ultrasone HFI 580 and the ultrasone DJ1s, how would they be for my musical preference?
im not an audiophile so chances are anything that i do buy will impress me either way, i might buy an amp like a fiio e5, if it improves sound then why not.
thanks for reading and any recommendations.

Just thought i'd chime in, even though I haven't read the latest posts.
my PFE's had problems, but Phonak replaced them per their warranty, and the new ones are much improved... the cabling is "sandy" in texture, and is more impervious to sweat, and the casings are not as brittle. The sound quality is still excellent!

According to The Hollywood Reporter,Once Favreau and the writers — Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Damon Lindelof — learned that Rockwell was interested in the movie, they reconceived and expanded the role, which initially called for a heavy-set man.Rockwell joins Daniel Craig, who plays a former Union Army member turned gunslinger named Zeke Jackson, along with Harrison Ford and Olivia Wilde. So let's recap: the star of last year's genre-redefining epic Moon, James Bond, Han Solo and Tron Legacy's new heroine, all in one movie. Plus, they will be directed by Iron Man's own Jon Favreau, with a script penned by Star Trek, Fringe and Lost overlords Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Damon Lindelof.AdvertisementAnd let's not forget the whole idea was spawned from a comic book. That's excellent geek fodder right there. July 29th 2011 can't come soon enough.If you're not familiar with the plot, the title is pretty self-explanatory. But here's a little comic trailer someone put together to get you even more excited.
