Rangers' Little Engine That Could
Posted on 8 Mar 2011 by Margaret DeJesus.
The 2010-2011 Rangers bear a certain resemblance to a popular children's story. The Little Engine That Could in his shiny blue coat of paint embodies a message of the power of hard work coupled with belief in oneself. A small engine can accomplish big things if it tries hard enough. Or as Coach John Tortorella would say, "grind it out." But belief needs to be channeled into action ...

Shootout Loss to NYR Hurts Canes
Posted on 23 Feb 2011 by Brad Kurtzberg.
This loss hurt. The Carolina Hurricanes could have tied the New York Ranges for seventh place in the East with a win at home Tuesday night. They led the game 3-2 with two minutes left in regulation only to see the Rangers Wojtek Wolski tie the game with 1:50 remaining in regulation and then win it in the shootout. The Canes wasted a strong performance by goalie Cam Ward who made 43 saves in...

Player Profile: Mats Zuccarello (Aasen)
Posted on 1 Feb 2011 by Adam Gavriel.
In a blog post during the most recent Olympic games, I told my readers to make sure they keep an eye out for Norwegian dangler Mats Zuccarello-Aasen as he was going to get a shot with an NHL club soon and make a name for himself. Just a few short months after that he was signed by the Rangers, and here he is now providing offense at the greatest hockey stage in the world. Zuccarello has all the...

Dubinsky Down, Rangers' Offense Comes Alive
Posted on 19 Jan 2011 by Margaret DeJesus.
When g.m. Glen Sather announced that the Rangers' leading scorer Brandon Dubinsky would miss three to four weeks with a leg injury just before tonight's game against the Maple Leafs, it hurt. But not for long. Losing Ryan Callahan — the heart — was bad enough but tacking on Dubinsky — the soul– of the Rangers system, didn't bode well for the team struggling offensively....

Christensen Out 4 to 6 Weeks With Knee Injury
Posted on 30 Dec 2010 by Margaret DeJesus.
The Rangers will be without inconsistent forward Erik Christensen for at least a month. The 27-year-old injured his right knee during the team's 3-1 win over the New Jersey Devils yesterday. The second-degree sprain of the medial collateral ligament will keep him out of the lineup for four to six weeks. The Rangers won't miss him too much though. They'll lose a fancy shootout goal or two at be...

Triple Workout Day
Summer has officially begun for me and I am loving it! Colby did his half Ironman this past weekend and rocked it! I will post tomorrow all about his race. We got back yesterday and I only ran 3 miles on the treadmill at the hotel once. I had plenty of time today to workout… so that is what I did!
(PM workout)
I asked Colby to run 3 easy miles with me outside. His legs were sore but he was okay going slow with me. We walked a little too. Tonight, I did something I haven't done in a longgggg time… I went to a SPIN class!! Two years ago I tried to get into spin, but I just couldn't. My new gym has all RPM (Les Mills spin class) and they have a 30 minute class two times a week. Tonight they had the 30 minute class and CXWORX was right afterwards. I really loved it!! 30 minutes was just enough, because I'm not sure I could have done much more tonight. Spin is just so hard when you aren't used to it! I loved that it was in a separate spin room and it just had such a cool atmosphere. I really liked the instructor too!
I made an awesome smoothie this morning after my run. I haven't made a smoothie in a few weeks so it tasted great. Chocolate Vega protein, Silk almond milk, PB2 powder, spinach, frozen banana, frozen strawberries and chia seeds! YUM!
Big Ironman review tomorrow! 🙂

Employees Can Now Sue for Suitable Seating (Among Other Things): Bright v. 99 Cents Only Stores and Home Depot U.S.A. v. Superior Court (Harris); Home Depot U.S.A. v. Superior Court (Harris); Update: The NLRB and Facebook; and What Should Employers Do Now?.
Excerpt from 'Employees can Now Sue...':
California employers should be aware of two recent decisions issued by the Second District Court of Appeal that allow employees a private right of action to pursue monetary remedies under the Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 ("PAGA") for violations of the Industrial Wage Commission ("IWC") Orders: Bright v. 99 Cents Only Stores and Home Depot U.S.A. v. Superior Court. The IWC Wage Orders are generally known for establishing minimum wage and overtime requirements. However, they also establish standard labor conditions for employees. For example, IWC Wage Order 7-2001 requires that all retail employers in California provide: facilities for securing hot food and drink for meal periods between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., lockers or closets for safekeeping of employees' outerwear, resting facilities for employees in an area separate from the bathroom, "suitable seating" for employees, and a temperature of not less than 68º in the toilet, changing, and resting rooms. The wage order itself does not provide damages for violations of these standards and only provides penalties if an employee is underpaid. The Bright and Home Depot decisions will now allow employees to pursue civil penalties under PAGA when employers do not meet these obscure standards.

UV-Protection. Preserving The Natural Colour Tone Optimal protection from the sun, which is the first clear oil-based UV-protection for exterior use. External woods are constantly under attack from the suns UV rays, which can pale, discolour and grey the boards. UV-protection oil works to block this process, when used as a stand alone finish. When used as a top coat over pre-stained wood it works to prolong time between renovation, meaning you spend much less time working on it and more time enjoying it. UV-protection oil extra contains active ingredients for preventing growths of algae and fungal decay commonly found in external boards.

Makes 6 cupcakes
More Fudge and Cupcake recipes.
For the Cupcakes
1 oz unsweetened chocolate, chopped fine
3 tbsp. hot water
3 tbsp. butter, softened
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
For the Frosting
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, chopped fine
1/2 tbsp. butter
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
2 tsp. milk plus additional to thin the frosting
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Make the Cupcakes:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, melt the chocolate with 3 tbsp. hot water, stirring, until the mixture is smooth, and remove the bowl from the heat. In a bowl whisk the butter with the brown sugar until the mixture is blended well and whisk in the yolk and the chocolate mixture. Onto a sheet of wax paper sift together the flour, the baking powder, and the salt and add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture in batches alternately with the milk, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla, divide the batter among 6 paper-lined 1/2-cup muffin tins, and bake the cupcakes in the middle of the oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Transfer the cupcakes to a rack and let them cool.
Make the Frosting:
While the cupcakes are baking, make the frosting: In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the chocolate with the butter, stirring, until the mixture is smooth and remove the bowl from the heat. Stir in the confectioner's sugar, 2 teaspoons of the milk, and the vanilla and blend the frosting well (the frosting will thicken as it stands). When the cupcakes are cool, thin the frosting to the desired consistency with the additional milk, stirring in the milk drop by drop. Spread each cupcake with some of the frosting.
I routinely double and triple this recipe. I freeze unfrosted cupcakes and pull them out when I'm stuck for an unexpected dessert or bake sale. Cool completely and freeze in zip-top plastic bags. Also, when icing the cupcakes, work quickly, as the icing hardens fast as you are icing. I also love making this recipe in mini-muffin tins. You yield about 12 or 13 muffins per batch. Cooking time should be shortened to between 10 and 15 minutes.

Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Genre: Science Fiction Media: text Age Appropriateness: Middle School, High School Review: This is a book about a society who is totally run by their government and people can not see color. There is this old man named Giver who has all of the knowlegde about their society, and he can see color. The Giver spends the last parts of his job giving all of his memories and abilities to the boy (the new Giver). The people in the society are brainwashed to believe that the life they live in like the life of everyone else and that other cities live the same way. It is not until he lives his society does he realizes everything he thought he knew was wrong. Critique: I think this is a good science fiction book because it goes through a society who is totally run by the government which is called distopia. This is a good science fiction because this is a society who is ran by their government which can and does happen in real life, this society is only allowed two children, a boy and a girl, in which the mother does not carry the child but instead their our women in the society who carry children for three years as their job. The most important theme in this novel is that all memories, good and bad, have a significant impact on human behavior and without them you are bound to repeat the same mistakes. This book was even more impactful the second time reading it for many reasons. The authors gives the reader an opportunity to think about tough issues such as equality. For example, on page 20 Jonas's little sister Lily pointed out his unique eye color but to do so was considered to be rude because "No one mentioned such things; it was not a rule, but was considered rude to call attention to things that were unsettling or different about individuals." Reading this, I thought about how I would feel if I looked, talked, and acted just as everyone else did. I was able to put myself in that situation and envision how meaningless and empty life would be if everything was equal, as Jonas realized when he became the Receiver. Another reason why I really enjoyed the book was the way the author left the ending of the book; "Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too. But perhaps it was only an echo". The author leaves it up to the reader to make their own interpretation of the ending, but to me two were clear: both Jonas and Gabriel were coming upon a cabin that was playing music, or Jonas only heard the music from his memory and it wasn't actually real. The fact that the author lets the reader make their own conclusion allows for greater critical thinking and engagement you wouldn't otherwise have if the author wrote a detailed ending. The only thing I would mention is that I didn't have a strong connection as a reader to any of the characters, perhaps because of the author's choice of writing in third person or the short nature of the book. The Giver is a story that reminds you how beautiful life is. As the saying goes, you don't know what you have till it's gone, this book brings light to that without you having to actually lose it. In The Giver we find a community rid of all uniqueness, color, choice and what I consider to be the strongest message of the book, love. The book is useful for teaching the value of life, uniqueness and choice and love. Many readers will tell you that the message behind "The Giver" is that change is not always bad and to never give up on something you believe is right. When the main character is given his assigned job in the community, he receives memories of what the community was like before. He noticed that there was choice for the people; there was joy and love. Even with the bad memories that he saw, he thought it was better than the unfair life of no choice they were living. It was very dangerous for him to say anything and try to make change by bringing all of the memories back. He risks his life for something he thinks is better for the community, according to his hope and dreams. Jonas lives in a distant future world where unending rules keep all of society content, comfortable, and unendingly alike. But there is one person in the community who is assigned the task of keeping all the memories of all the past, so that if the elders ever need council about these things, there is someone to give it to them. Jonas has been assigned as the new Receiver (keeper of memories). As he gains memories of the distant past, from back and back and back, he begins to believe that the perfectly comfortable structured world that they live in is not as ideal as he has always thought. And he and old Receiver (now the Giver) come up with a plan to change things.
This book examines a utopian society thoroughly and fairly; it is this fairness that makes the novel so riveting and thought-provoking, and so perfect for triggering discussions. The author is true to her determination not to stack the deck for readers; the ending is deliberately ambiguous, with allegorical overtones, leaving readers to decide what they want to believe. Jonas' world is very appealing. The community runs by common agreement to its rules; some freedom is sacrificed for security; joy, for avoidance of misery. The choices, which provide the catalyst for discussion, all involve one central decision: to forgo the highs of life in order to get rid of the lows -- to find the middle way. There is a lot to be said for this, though Jonas, speaking presumably for the author, ultimately rejects it. Some children will agree with Jonas, but others will find themselves attracted to a life that is uniformly pleasant, if never exhilarating. Thanks... Despite occasional logical lapses, "The Giver," a powerful and provocative novel, is sure to keep older children reading. And thinking.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0440237688, Mass Market Paperback)In a world with no poverty, no crime, no sickness and no unemployment, and where every family is happy, 12-year-old Jonas is chosen to be the community's Receiver of Memories. Under the tutelage of the Elders and an old man known as the Giver, he discovers the disturbing truth about his utopian world and struggles against the weight of its hypocrisy. With echoes of Brave New World, in this 1994 Newbery Medal winner, Lowry examines the idea that people might freely choose to give up their humanity in order to create a more stable society. Gradually Jonas learns just how costly this ordered and pain-free society can be, and boldly decides he cannot pay the price.(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:06:46 -0400) Lowry's unforgettable tale introduces 12-year-old Jonas, who is singled out by the Community to be trained by The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of true pain and pleasure. Now it's time for Jonas to receiver the truth. (summary from another edition) |

Silver Springs opens as a new state park
Published: Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 3:43 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 3:43 p.m.
Jon and Lora Zedick woke up well before dawn on Tuesday and drove from Orlando to be part of the official opening day at Silver Springs State Park.
If you go
The fee to enter Silver Springs State Park, which now incorporates the former Silver River State Park, is $5 for one person in a vehicle or on a motorcycle, or $8 for up to eight people in one vehicle. Entrances are located at 5656 E. Silver Springs Blvd. and 1425 N.E. 58th Ave. The fee is $2 for pedestrians or bicyclists. Visitors can pay the fee at one entrance and then go to the second entrance with a receipt. Hours are 8 a.m. to sundown. For more information, call 236-7148.
They were the first visitors to enter the park, which came into being when the operation of the property was turned over to the state recently. The property had served as a tourist attraction for decades.
"It's not often you can come to the opening of a state park, so we decided to come up. We love our state parks. We're state park pass holders," said Jon Zedick, who last visited the park on a school field trip when he was 10.
He and his wife have camped in the adjacent former Silver River State Park, which has merged with the new park. The two properties will be known singularly as Silver Springs State Park.
Donald Forgione, director of the state's parks, which number more than 170, said the Division of Recreation and Parks, which is part of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, tries to balance the natural state of the parks with activities.
"We know this is still an attraction. We have the glass bottom boats, but we try to keep that in balance with the health and wellbeing of the nature surrounding it," Forgione said.
To that end, part of the iconic entrance to the park has been changed.
For years, as visitors entered the park they crossed a boardwalk that spanned a seemingly flooded swamp teeming with alligators and turtles. There were even vending machines with turtle food. As it turns out, it was mostly a setup.
"They would artificially flood that and stock it with the turtles. When they changed around some of the drainage, this area was blocked off. We'd like to return the natural drainage so it acts like a real swamp again, which go through times of wet and dry," Forgione said.
Also gone were the turnstiles and the bright red and white lighthouse ride that took riders up 80-feet for a panoramic view of the headwaters.
In fact, most vestiges of the attraction's other features were also gone.
Shops at the park were empty, but there are plans for those to reopen soon with vendors and even restaurants.
One thing that was put back into operation was the fountain at the entrance of the park. There were also kayaks available for rent.
Forgione hopes to soon have a tram available to shuttle visitors from the headsprings area of the park to the former Silver River park area, where there is a museum, various exhibits, camping facilities and access to miles of trails.
Tola and Emil Hass were the second visitors to enter the park Tuesday. They said they were curious to see the changes.
"We haven't been here in a while, maybe three or four years, now we're going to try it again," Tola Hass said.
As with most of the visitors to the park, she was excited to ride the glass bottom boats.
Vessamae and Lewis Poole were regular visitors to the park. Their last visit before Tuesday came a few days before the park closed for the transition in mid-September.
Vessamae Poole said she always remembers Johnny Weissmuller when she comes to the park.
"I met that man twice in my life," she said.
Weissmuller portrayed Tarzan in the movies of the 1930s and '40s. Six of the movies were filmed at Silver Springs.
The headwaters of Silver Springs have drawn tourists for about 150 years. The state bought the land in 1993, but allowed its operation to continue through a succession of private companies. Earlier this year, Palace Entertainment reached a deal with the state to be let out of the lease to operate Silver Springs. Palace agreed to pay $4 million to the state to help pay for removal of certain attractions.
The overall plan for the park is for it to serve as an ecotourism destination as well as a cultural and historical site.

oo 1800 from winning as an attacker in tol barad...tobad noone wins as a attacker
and winter grasp is still totally worthless !
the moment i read it i said the same thing The defenders wont care for 180 they woud want to lose and get the 1800 instead its 9 times more worth it....
Bahahaha. Yeah. That change should adjust the numbers a little bit so even though the attackers have to hold more at once, now they have more people to attack. Except oh wait, the numbers are fixed against each other.That's about the dumbest and most insulting fix they could've made.
So pretty much you get a free bit of PvP gear if you win ?
There are many places where it would make sense for Alliance and Horde to switch control of a place or cooperate for increased benefit to both sides. Very seldom have I seen people from either side smart enough to grasp this concept and put it into practice. I sincerely doubt this will be different despite the huge incentive to do so. I hope I'm wrong. But if there is one thing I have learned from playing WoW, it is that the vast majority of people are bone-deep stupid.
When we've lost it on my server as horde, we've always taken it back within 1-2 battles :P
Agreed about Wintergrasp - love the place, in it today with a total of 10 people (Ally and Horde total). Waste of a great BG and should be on opposing times to TB and with the same honor points.
"Mekgineer Thermaplugg no longer sometimes awards dungeon completion prematurely."That sounds disturbing...

I spend most of my time telling you about things you shouldn't watch, so the fact that I'm about to heartily recommend a show should have everyone on the edges of their seats.
Are you there? Great. The show is The Hotwives Of Orlando, and it's a Hulu original series that parodies the Real Housewives franchise on Bravo. Very similar to how Burning Love parodied The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, to use an extremely complimentary analogy, with just as many famous hilarious people in it. In case that's your thing.
It just premiered yesterday and there are only two episodes online so far (although it appears that the whole season is available via Hulu Plus), so you have plenty of time to catch up with these completely batshit ladies. First there's Casey Wilson as Tawny, who's sleeping with her personal trainer, played by Joey McIntyre, because she refuses to let the slow death of her husband get her down. She's best friends with Shauna, played by Danielle Schneider, who co-created the series with Dannah Phirman. Shauna has either four or five kids, probably four, and was blatantly pulled right off of RHONJ in the best / worst way.
Then there's Veronica Vandervon, an extremely white, extremely rich lady who insists on speaking with a British accent, Kristen Schaal as Amanda, a drug-addled former child star, Angela Kinsey as her sister Crystal, a religious zealot whose husband won't let her actually read the Bible because it's written 'in Jewish' and beyond her understanding, and my favorite character, Phe Phe, played by Tymberlee Hill. She's a pitch-perfect spoof of an amalgam of NeNe Leakes and the rest of the Atlanta cast down to the sentence, "I don't want any drama tonight…so I'm gonna confront her."
Yessss. It's a truly beautiful thing, and you can appreciate it even if you aren't obsessed with the franchise, like I am. You honestly should just watch it yourself. And you know what? I'll even make it easy for you — here's the first episode in it's entirety for your immediate viewing needs. And it's only twenty-three minutes long, so I don't want to hear any of your mouth-garbage about not having time to watch it, okay?

- Elisabeth Naughton's Wait for Me. At $3.99 this is a steal and had I not committed a multitude of budgetary sins I would own it now. I adored her "Stolen" Romantic Suspense trilogy.
- Marie Sexton's Blind Space--One of my most favorite M/M authors has a new release this month & it's a futuristic sci-fi, but it doesn't look to have freaky aliens. And it's by her, so it's pretty much an auto-buy for me. I loved her Song of Oestend and I don't read very much fantasy at all.
- Zoe Archer's Chain Reaction. Apparently this is going to be my space opera month. I adored her Collision Course (my review here) and can't wait for this title. If you like blistering heat, kick-ass heroines, lots of butt-kicking action, you'll want to try her!
- Shoshanna Evers's Bedhead. This is erotica with a bald heroine. A bald heroine. I've read the sample and my fingers are itching to read it. I love Evers's fresh voice.
- Laura Griffin's Snapped. This has languished on my to-buy pile too long. It's agency priced so I keep moving over it in favor of two or three less expensive titles, but I need a Griffin fix pronto.
- Elosia James's When Beauty Tamed The Beast. I read the sample chapters of this contained in her freebie short Winning the Wallflower released around the holidays. I loved the sample and have been waiting to click buy.
- Beth Williamson's Backlist. Um. Okay. Not in my budget, but I read and adored Bounty (which I'll try to review) and I want to read the rest of that series. She is my new western historical crack. At Samhain's decent prices, I might be able to squeeze two in, especially if ARe has a holiday weekend deal. Victoria Dahl, Marie Force, and Inez Kelley are three other authors whose backlists I'm working through & will be picking up if a sale presents.
- Celia Grant's A Lady Awakened. Everyone I know is reading & loving this, so I'll be downloading a sample to consider this unusual regency.
- Miranda Neville apparently has a virgin, nerdy hero. In a regency. I'm downloading samples of her series.

Payday! How I buy books
4 comments:
Great list of books. I just bought Yellowstone Heart Song a historical western by Peggy Henderson because it was raved about on the Kindle Western loop. Don't know when I'll get to it with research and the other tbr books on my kindle but I have it for $.99.
I need to do the free partial reads instead of just downloading. I stopped reading a book last night that I'd purchased the whole thing but when they went from a downpour of rain and the next page dust flew in their faces....As you know, I most often read sf rather than romance (although I will pick up the occasional bodice ripper..), but these are excellent tips for any eBook consumer!
A friend gave me a gift certificate for my Kindle (app) last month; I immediately spent it on books I knew I wanted to own (I'd read them from the library), but if I can ever find any 'fun' money that hasn't gone straight to wooly goodness, I'll be keeping these tips in mind. :)I sympathize with you about the credit card and your nook account. I don't have a credit card on file for Amazon because I know I would be spending way too much. I made the decision to buy gift cards for Amazon when I want books, and since the money doesn't expire once it's on the account I don't have to worry about it.
Like you, I tend to pass over the higher priced books since money is tight, but when I have a new gift card I always allow myself one higher priced book (which is anything $5 and over) as a treat.
My next buy is going to be Whispers in the Dark by Maya Banks. I love the KGI series and been looking forward to this book. I just have to find it. Since Borders went out of business, it's been harder to find new book by my favorite authors.

Tears at Last
I shed these tears at last
for a time so sadly past.
When I was just a young lad of three,
a beautiful twin sister she was to me.
For reasons I've never understood,
they say, one stormy night an Angel
took her on a heavenly flight.
Now I've wondered all my life,
what a twin sister might be like.
I think we would have always
loved each other…
laughter, tears, promises and
secrets of two that we would
have always cherish anew.
But fate was not ours to pick or choose,
so bottled up sadness and hidden
tears is all I have left to lose.
Now the years have come and gone,
and I am old and gray, but my darling twin
I wished I still had on this our Seventieth
Jackie R. kays

Merchants of Doubt is a highly engaging read by Erik Conway and Naomi Oreskes about the long war on science waged by anti-regulatory forces. Obviously, this extends to the problem of anthropogenic climate change.
One of the "Merchants of Doubt" is William Nierenberg, founder of the anti-regulatory, denialist, bullsh*t hub of disinformation, the George C. Marshall Institute.
Nierenberg's son Nicolas has been engaged in an understandable effort to whitewash his father's legacy in underplaying the risks posed by climate change. In doing so, Nicolas (ironically?) follows virtually the same pattern of doubt-mongering laid out in Oreskes's and Conway's book. He relies upon the scientific community's tendency to dial in on details to the exclusion of all else, and thus tries to argue the minutia in order to distract from and cast doubt on the bigger picture.
I couldn't have scripted a better example than the beginning of a recent comment of his over at William Connolley's: "…Merchants of Doubt (MOD) is highly misleading. As a very specific and critical point…"
Please don't get me wrong- I believe that Nicolas is engaging in good faith, and is not deliberately trying to be misleading. I encourage everyone to read his comments in full and discuss the issue with him personally- in my experience he is always prompt and courteous.
But as I said, Nicolas is depending on our failure to keep the big picture in mind. From a science standpoint, GMI is an inexcusable, disgusting organization. It is the antithesis of what genuine and honest inquiry should be. William Nierenberg's part in its founding is terrible, and it is simply not credible to pretend that he was not engaged in the same anti-regulatory shenanigans as his organization- no matter how much Nicolas would like us to believe otherwise. No matter what Nicolas says about Oreskes and Conway's writing, keep that in mind. Listen to what William himself said in his own words. On the likely effects of climate change:
In actual fact– the actual fact is, that calmer [vs. the scientific consensus] analysis has restricted the maximum likely CO2 to- the concentration- to slightly less than double and extended the time for the effects to the year 2150- that's quite an increase. The global temperature change would be at most 1°[C], and the sea level rise would be barely one foot (or 30cm). The Western Antarctic Ice Sheet is now believed to be stable for the foreseeable future. Despite this great relaxation in extremes, the dire predictions remain. [8:15-8:52]
On the atmospheric residency of CO2:
Well you see with [the scientific consensus of long atmospheric residency of CO2] in mind, you have a problem. No matter how sure you are that the effects will be minimal- you see- they are in effect irreversible. If you've made a mistake, if you've made a bad estimate, you're stuck and you have a problem- you see- reversing what you've done. Now, that's the problem, but what happened is, the change in our viewpoint- those who take the problem seriously… In fact we now know that the CO2– the excess C02- will not last for a thousand years, but in fact will decay away on the average in about 150 years. Now that alters the entire perspective of the problem. It makes a possibility of correctibility at any stage of the game, if you have made a mistestimate [about the severity of the problem], and so on. So this [atmospheric residency of CO2], however, is the reason that the problem seemed to agonizing to so many of us early, and that reason has completely disappeared today. [12:01-13:08]
Watch the video in full. There are a legion of strawmen, red herring, appeals to ridicule, and other fallacies intended to persuade an audience rhetorically at the expense of fact and logic. William Neirenberg wasn't a Morano or Watts-type out and out denialist. He was always an interjector of "reasonable" disagreement and uncertainty to prevent meaningful action on the issue. Nicolas Nierenberg would like you to believe that his father was not a Merchant of Doubt.
Nicolas is simply wrong.
UPDATE: As it's a particular interest to WC, I wonder how he'll react to Nierenberg lying about the "coming ice age" bullsh*t?
UPDATE: Per request in the comments, the video I linked to was shot in 1999. I don't believe that the date substantively excuses many of the lies and half-truths by Nierenberg, but if anyone wants to attempt to justify his claims that's probably a persuasive place to start. Nierenberg died in 2000- I'm not sure why anyone would expect comments of his to be made much past that time…

She managed the family business until she met the love of her life, John W. Brown. After a brief courtship, they were married Sept. 21, 1947, in his parent's home near Galesburg, Kan.
They began farming near Hiattville, Kan., in 1954.
Elda was a life member of the Hiattville United Methodist Church. In the late 1950's, she traveled southeastern Kansas to have churches work for racial justice and equality. She offered hospitality readily to friends and family. She was a 4-H leader, a United Methodist Woman and a past president of the women's auxiliary of the Kansas Soil Conservation Districts.
She moved to Aldersgate Village in Topeka in 2004 and became an active member of that community. She was an associate member of Crestview united Methodist Church while in Topeka.
Elda is survived by her daughters: Eva Brown, Topeka; and Margaret Bender and husband Duane, McPherson, Kan.; a son: Joe Brown and wife Rebecca, Augusta, Kan.; and four grandchildren, Catherine Bender, Shawnee, Kan.; Nathan Brown and wife Jesica, Kansas City, Kan.; Kevin Brown, Wichita, Kan.; and Ella Brown Richards, Topeka.

Update: Sciarra, in a Pinterest blog post, confirmed his departure.
Is there trouble in Pinterest paradise?
Paul Sciarra (pictured, left), co-founder of digital pin-board sensation Pinterest, is said to be on his way out the door. Sciarra will be leaving the company as soon as next week, according to a report from Startup Grind, which said it confirmed the departure with several company insiders.
Pinterest, first launched in 2010, came out of Cold Brew Labs, a product shop started by Sciarra and college pal Ben Silbermann. The one-time experimental project has caught fire in recent months and could be worth as much as $500 million in a sale. Members use the site to "pin" products to collections called "boards," an activity that's become so popular that even President Obama is doing it.
Why would a co-founder get off a train that appears to be steamrolling ahead to Facebook-level fame and fortune? Details of Sciarra's departure aren't yet known, but we doubt they're anywhere near as pretty as the site Sciarra helped to create.
Troubling though the departure may be, Sciarra's exit will be a minor blip for the up-and-coming company that shows no signs of slowing down. In February, Pinterest, at 17.8 million unique visitors, was the third-highest-gaining web property in terms of unique visitors, according to comScore's calculations.
Pinterest and Sciarra did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Update: Sciarra, in a Pinterest blog post, confirmed his departure and said he accepted a position as Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Andreessen Horowitz. "After lots of reflection and plenty of discussion with Ben and others, I've decided that now is a good time for me to step down formally from day-to-day involvement," he said. "Of course, I'll continue to be there for the company: now, as an advisor, an owner, and — as always — a dedicated pinner."

Abuser Tricks
If you are in Midcoast Maine in Sagadahoc, Lincoln, Knox and Waldo counties, New Hope for Women is here to help by calling our toll-free number at 1-800-522-3304, visiting our 'Contact' page, or stopping by any of our Midcoast offices.
If you are not from the Midcoast Maine area, here are some resources that may be of help to you: the Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence at 1-866-83-4HELP or via the web at www.mcedv.org or the National Domestic Violence Hotline, 1-800-799-7233 or via the web at www.thehotline.org.
The following is a list of behaviors that may indicate a potential batterer. It is not the purpose of the listing to imply that every person with some of these attributes is a batterer or potential batterer.
- Jealousy
- At the start of the relationship, an abuser will equate jealously with love. The abuser will question the victim about who the victim talks to, accuse the victim of flirting, or become jealous of time spent with others. The abuser may call the victim frequently during the day, drop by unexpectedly, refuse to let the victim work, check the car mileage, or ask friends to watch the victim.
- Controlling behavior
- In the beginning an abuser will attribute controlling behavior to concern for the victim (for example, the victim's safety or decision-making skills). As this behavior progresses the situation will worsen, and the abuser may assume all control of finances or prevent the victim from coming and going freely.
- Quick involvement
- A victim often has known or dated the abuser for a brief period of time before getting engaged or living together. The abuser will pressure the victim to commit to the relationship. A victim may be made to feel guilty for wanting to slow the pace or end the relationship.
- Unrealistic expectations
- An abuser expects the victim to meet all of the abuser's needs, to take care of everything emotionally and domestically.
- Isolation
- An abuser will attempt to isolate the victim by severing the victim's ties to outside support and resources. The batterer will accuse the victim's friends and family of being "trouble makers." The abuser may block the victim's access to use of a vehicle, work, or telephone service in the home.
- Blames others for problems
- An abuser will blame others for all problems or for the abuser's own shortcomings. Someone is always out to get the abuser or is an obstacle to the abuser's achievements. The victim or potential victim will be blamed for almost anything.
- Blames others for feelings
- An abuser will use feelings to manipulate the victim. Common phrases to look for: "You're hurting me by not doing what I want." "You control how I feel."
- Hypersensitivity
- An abusive person is easily insulted, perceiving the slightest setbacks as personal attacks.
- Cruelty to animals or children
- This is a person who punishes animals brutally or is insensitive to their pain. The abuser may expect children to perform beyond their capability (for example whipping a two-year-old for wetting a diaper or teasing children or siblings until they cry).
- "Playful" use of force in sex
- This behavior includes restraining partners against their will during sex, acting out fantasies in which the partner is helpless, initiating sex when the partner is asleep, or demanding sex when the partner is ill or tired. The abuser may show little concern for his partner's wishes and will use sulking and anger to manipulate compliance.
- Verbal abuse
- This behavior involves saying things that are intended to be cruel and hurtful, cursing or degrading the victim, or putting down the victim's accomplishments.
- Rigid sex roles
- The victim, almost always a woman, will be expected to serve. For instance, a male abuser will see women as inferior to men, responsible for menial tasks, stupid, and unable to be a whole person without a relationship.
- Dual personality "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"
- Explosive behavior and moodiness, which can shift quickly to congeniality, are typical of people who beat their partners.
- Past battering
- An abuser will beat any partner if the individual is involved with the abuser long enough for the cycle of abuse to begin. Circumstances do not make a person an abusive personality.
- Threats of violence
- This consists of any threat of physical force meant to control the partner. Most people do not threaten their mates but an abuser will excuse this behavior by claiming "everyone talks like that."
- Breaking or striking objects
- This behavior is used as punishment (breaking sentimental possessions) or to terrorize the victim into submission.
- Any force during an argument
- This may involve an abuser holding down his the victim, physically restraining the victim from leaving, or pushing or shoving. Holding someoneback in order to make demands, such as "You will listen to me!" is also a show of force.

October Inspirations
Lately, my bucket has been brimming over with ideas. I love Pinterest not just to discover cute and clever art lessons, but for ideas to create them. I'm in the business of creating my own content so I look to my surroundings (and Pinterest!) for my daily fix.
Here's what's inspiring me lately…
A simple image often spurs the brain into action. I adore these illustrations of the double-decker bus and the ski hill and the art lessons are already well established. Although I'm not sure what grade level yet….
I'm always on the lookout for a simple approach to teach perspective and this atmospheric grove of birch trees is perfect. And don't you love the bell jar? I can imagine what treasures a child would place in theirs…vintage books always generate great lesson ideas and why not a jolly fisherman?
Last summer, I took my parents to visit Lotusland in Santa Barbara. It's a stunning visual experience with gardens that appeal to all your senses. It took a while for this Canadian transplant to appreciate the beauty of succulents and the arid gardens typical of California, but I can now say that I am fully acclimated.
Of course, inspiration is never far away. My daughter painted me a picture of a young girl. I have it hanging in front of my glass-covered cabinet. It's so delicate and perfect and it matches my purple orchids beautifully!
What has inspired you lately?

On Friday, May 14, Peirce students from the 2010 graduating class along with members of faculty and administration joined Mayor Michael Nutter, special guest Bill Cosby, and students and administration from colleges and universities across the Philadelphia region for a citywide graduation celebration. The event honored Philadelphians who have earned their college degree, and celebrated the city's focus on education and degree attainment.
Mayor Nutter spoke about how degreed individuals enrich the city and his hope for this year's graduates to become lifelong leaders in Philadelphia. He noted the importance of access to education and pointed out the Philly Goes 2 College initiative as one of the many resources available to Philadelphians who would like to pursue their degree.
Mayor Nutter made a special mention of Peirce's own "three generation" graduates -- Gwendolyn McNuckles, Dionne Garrison, and Denise Garrison -- the grandmother, mother, daughter trio who will be graduating from Peirce in June.
Take a look at photos from the event by clicking play on the slideshow below.

ADR-Delta's steep 2012 learning curve
07/12/2012 - 21h48
Photo : JEAN MICHEL LE MEUR -
When the small British team first appeared in the FIA WEC at the 12 Hours of Sebring, one could be forgiven for thinking they looked a little shell shocked. But that wouldn't be taking into account the fact that the deal between Alan Docking Racing and Delta Motorsport was only finalised at the 11th hour, and the No.25 Oreca 03-Nissan was delivered to them just hours before it was due to be flown to the USA.
With virtually no time to prepare, Alan Docking and his crew faced a steep learning curve to reach the high standard demonstrated by competitors such as Starworks Motorsports in the LMP2 class. So, after such a start, to end as vice-champions in the category and record four LMP2 victories through the season is hugely creditable to the newcomers.
The tenacious Docking, a long-time team owner and entrant in single-seaters, and Delta's Simon Dowson worked hard to beat the opposition, so the final outcome was bitter-sweet. "We were the new guys on the block in endurance racing," said New Zealander Docking. "Starworks have a good operation and LMP2 is very competitive; you can't drop any time anywhere. Le Mans was our biggest problem as we had tyre vibration issues and bodywork problems and spent too long in the pits getting it right. It really took until Silverstone for us to feel comfortable in the championship and start to represent our potential, but ultimately we were disappointed we didn't win the title."
Australian John Martin formed a strong pairing with Thailand's Tor Graves, a relatively inexperienced driver who more than held his own amongst his more practiced peers. However, the complete line up lacked consistency due to commercial pressures and Robbie Kerr's contribution to the team's WEC class win at Spa came to nought. Jan Charouz, Shinji Nakano and Mathias Beche all contributed further to the overall points tally, with wins at Silverstone, Fuji and Shanghai.
Suspension failure and a failed wheel nut knocked the team's championship challenge further at Bahrain, but the end of the year demonstrated that ADR-Delta had gathered itself up and were on the right track. Simon Dowson prefers to look forward rather than back. "We didn't underestimate our opposition, and were comfortable we could take it to them if it hadn't been for those couple of races. In the end it was a bit of a disappointment to be so close to winning the title, but that's more incentive to come back and have another go in 2013. We've only one place to go now – to win it – and we're working hard to make sure we've got strongest possible team to do that."
