Lev: 1,000 game no minor feat for Ducks' voice
Roger Ebert once wrote an entry in his online journal entitled "The best damn job in the whole damn world." It was about him wanting, more than anything, to become a newspaper reporter.
Steve Carroll can relate.
For as long as he can remember, Carroll wanted to be a radio play-by-play announcer for a professional sports team. As a youth, the St. Louis native would go to bed with a transistor radio (remember those?) so he could listen to Jack Buck call the Cardinals or Dan Kelly the Blues. Carroll even tucked a radio into his pocket during his high school graduation ceremony.
Several decades and numerous minor-league stops later, Carroll is living his dream. This past Saturday he broadcasted his 1,000th game as the radio voice of the Ducks, who honored him at center ice before the opening faceoff against Phoenix on Wednesday night.
That Carroll has made it this far is a testament to his dogged determination. He called thousands of minor-league baseball and hockey games over the course of two decades before landing the Ducks job in 1999.
"Every day I come to work here is a good day," the gravelly voiced Carroll, 57, said from his perch in the home-team radio booth at Honda Center. "Every day I've come in here it's like, 'This is what I've worked for.' It's everything I thought it would be."
Like many American males, Carroll grew up as an unabashed sports geek. He memorized players' uniform numbers and statistics. He could list all the winners of the Indianapolis 500 and the Triple Crown horse races. He'd walk around the house shouting "Shoots he scores!" and "Lays it up and in!"
Listening to Buck, Kelly and others – you can pick up stations from Minneapolis to Houston in centrally located St. Louis – Carroll developed a love affair with radio. There was just something about the way those broadcasting legends painted a picture with their words.
So Carroll attended the Broadcast Center school in St. Louis, the start of an odyssey that would take him from Farmington, Mo., to Des Moines, Iowa, to New Haven, Conn., and parts in between. In the early 1990s, he held five jobs at once in Nashville, Tenn., including serving as the play-by-play announcer for the Music City Jammers of the Global Basketball Association.
Carroll enjoyed almost every minute of it, but he longed to work in the big leagues. He finally got his break at age 40, when he became the radio guy for the Philadelphia Flyers. But the Flyers let him go after only one season, for reasons that remain unclear. So Carroll went back to the minors, this time in New Orleans. He met his future wife there but seriously wondered whether he'd ever make it.
Carroll was on the verge of giving up hope when a colleague told him that the Ducks had an opening – a second and, in all likelihood, final shot. He sent the team a tape, came out for an interview and got the job.
"I just had this feeling that it was right. I can't tell you why," Carroll said. "And here we are, 13 years later."
There's no place Carroll would rather be. If it isn't the best damn job in the whole damn world, it's a close second.
Fox Sports 1, the latest entry into the 24-hour-a-day sports-channel market, won't take down ESPN anytime soon. But FS1 does have two advantages CBS Sports Network and NBC Sports Network lack or lacked.
One is distribution in about 90 million homes at launch. FS1, set to debut Aug. 17, is replacing Fox's Speed channel.
The other is rights to big-time sports programming, including Pac-12 football and, starting in 2014, Major League Baseball.
In conjunction with FS1, Fox will launch a mobile app ("Fox Sports Go") enabling participating cable and satellite subscribers to watch live games on their devices.
ESPN's "Championship Week" – which is actually 12 days long – already has begun, and it'll feature 136 men's games across the various ESPN platforms. New this year: ESPN will televise a quarterfinal, semifinal and the championship game of the Pac-12 Tournament. As part of the conference's new 12-year media deal, ESPN will have those rights every other year. ... Recognizing that we can't get enough when it comes to mock drafts, NFL.com is launching a weekly show devoted to that topic. "NFL.com LIVE: Mock Draft Weekly," debuting at 10 a.m. PT Friday, will feature fresh mock drafts and analysis leading up to the real thing next month. Matt "Money" Smith serves as host for the show, which also will be available on demand. ...
From the wish-I'd-thought-of-it-first file: SI.com's Richard Deitsch, with some help from his friends, conducted an "Ultimate College Basketball Broadcaster Draft" in advance of the NCAA Tournament. Deitsch had the first pick and chose Gus Johnson. Charles Barkley went second. The most notable omission: superb play-by-play man Kevin Harlan. ... CBS Sports Network will chronicle Kansas' improbable 1988 championship run in a one-hour documentary. "The Miracles: The 1988 Kansas Jayhawks" debuts at 5 p.m. Monday. ... The streaking Chicago Blackhawks are good for NBC's business. The Chicago-Detroit game Sunday was the network's highest-rated, regular-season NHL game, excluding Winter Classics.

Empellon Soon to Be the Shuck Shack
Soon to be filled with the roar of slurping
Lauren Bloomberg
In the nearly a year that it's been open, Alex Stupak and Lauren Resler's Empellon has really grown into its shoes. The tacos that fly out of the kitchen increasingly come in more interesting combinations -- see: sweetbreads with maitake mushrooms. The stack of warm tortillas that accompany the shishito fundido could easily be mistaken for a Mexican grandmother's. And although Chef Stupak wishes that less people would stuff themselves silly with chips and try the top-notch bunuelos instead, the restaurant remains packed every night, all night, seven days a week. So it comes as no surprise that, in addition to adding another restaurant, Empellon is tacking oysters onto their repertoire.
Starting next week, there will be two types of oysters, one East Coast selection and one West, for market price (you can assume they'll be around $3 a pop). The selection will rotate, and the inaugural batch will be a surprise, possibly even to the garde manger that's bound to wield the shucker. Served on the half shell, they'll be accompanied by a bottle of the restaurant's sangrita, spiked with a little extra horseradish. A fantastic alternative to the ubiquitous vinegar-based mignonette.
Look for Empellon Cocina to open, fingers crossed, on February 1 (that's from the horse's mouth), and more Stupak-Resler projects in the future.

Eating rosellas in the Northern Territory
ABC Rural Matt BrannWild rosella plants are popping up around the Top End of the Northern Territory at the moment like beautiful 'red beacons'.
A type of hibiscus, the plant is an introduced species, that typically grows in the most northern parts of Australia.
The petals are most commonly known for their use in champagne and for making jams, but listeners of the NT Country Hour today shared a wealth of rosella recipes and secrets.
There were some cracking suggestions including 'Rosella Sangria' by Greg in Nightcliff.
Rosella Sangria
Handful of rosellas in a jug
Cherry vodka
Red wine
Mango slices
Scoop of passionfruit
And stir in some lemonade
Karen Dean from Crazy Acres near Darwin grows rosellas on her farm.
She turns the rosellas into a syrup, which is put into a homemade ice-cream.
"When it's in the ice-cream, it gives it a berry flavour," she said.
"It's got a nice tropical flavour... and is very easy to grow, it's actually in the weeds book, they self-propagate."
The Country Hour got a call from Gail in Adelaide River, who says a number of residents have their 'secret rosella patches'.
She said the town will be holding a Rosella Festival on the 25th of July.
For some other rosella recipes head to our Facebook page.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
On July 21, 2014, the Health Resources and Services Administration of HHS (HRSA) issued an interpretive rule interpreting Section 340B(e) of the Public Health Service Act as excluding from the 340B Drug Pricing Program orphan drugs that are "transferred, prescribed, sold, or otherwise used" only for the rare condition or disease for which the drug received its orphan drug designation. The interpretive rule HRSA now adopts is essentially the same policy that HRSA had previously adopted in a final rule promulgated on July 23, 2013, which was vacated by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on May 23, 2014.
The D.C. District Court's May 23, 2014 ruling in Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America v. United States Department of Health & Human Services, No. 1:13-cv-01501, held that HHS lacked the statutory authority to issue last year's "legislative" final rule on Section 340B(e), the orphan drug exclusion. Last week's Health Headlines article discussing that decision is available here. In direct response to the District Court's decision, HRSA has now adopted essentially the same policy as an "interpretive" rule. HRSA's interpretive rule is the latest in an ongoing battle between PhRMA and safety net providers.
Under HRSA's interpretive rule, orphan drugs that are "transferred, prescribed, sold, or otherwise used" for conditions other than those for which the drugs received their orphan designation are not excluded from the 340B Program. This enables certain covered entities participating in the 340B Program, such as free-standing cancer hospitals, critical access hospitals, rural referral centers, and sole community hospitals, to purchase orphan drugs at a discount through the 340B Program when they are prescribed for uses other than the indication for which the drug received its orphan drug status.
Explaining its rationale for the policy articulated in the interpretive rule, HRSA highlights Congress's use of the phrase "for a rare disease or condition" in the statutory language excluding orphan drugs from the 340B Program. Second, HRSA explains that its interpretation is consistent with FDA's interpretation of provisions in the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act providing incentives for orphan drug manufacturers. Finally, HRSA cites that its interpretation of the orphan drug exclusion furthers Congress's intent that 340B covered entities obtain value from the 340B Program and "stretch scarce federal resources as far as possible, reaching more eligible patients and providing more comprehensive services."

Vacant building suffers fire damage in Orange
ORANGE – Forty-five firefighters worked to put out a fire in an abandoned building Saturday.
Officials said the former Second Harvest Food Bank warehouse, 426 W. Almond Ave., was up in flames when Orange Fire Department responded around 5:45 p.m.
The second-alarm fire caused moderate damage, but no injuries, authorities said.
Cause of the fire is still under investigation, said fire Capt. Ian McDonald.
"We always wonder with vacant buildings what was going on," McDonald said. "But it's still under investigation."
Authorities said Orange firefighters were still cleaning up the remainder of the damage at the building around 9:45 p.m.

Wall Street Protesters Prepare for Winter Weather
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Wall Street protesters around the country who are vowing to stand their ground against the police and politicians are also digging in against a different kind of adversary: cold weather
With the temperature dropping, they are stockpiling donated coats, blankets and scarves, trying to secure cots and military-grade tents, and getting survival tips from the homeless people who have joined their encampments.
"Everyone's been calling it our Valley Forge moment," said Michael McCarthy, a former Navy medic in Providence. "Everybody thought that George Washington couldn't possibly survive in the Northeast."
More than a month and a half into the movement, Occupy Wall Street activists from New York to Colorado have pledged to tough out the snow, sleet and cold as they protest economic inequality and what they call corporate greed.
But the dangers of staying outdoors in some of the country's harsher climes are already becoming apparent: In Denver, two protesters were hospitalized with hypothermia this week during a storm that brought several inches of snow.
The activists also know full well that the number of demonstrators is likely to drop as the weather gets colder.
Some movements are scouting locations indoors, including vacant buildings or other unused properties, possibly even foreclosed homes, though some question the wisdom of holding a protest outside the public eye.
Lighting campfires is probably out of the question in most places because of safety regulations.
Boston's Occupy movement, which has roughly 300 overnight participants and could face some of the most brutal weather of any city with a major encampment, has set up a winterization committee that will try to obtain super-insulated sleeping bags and other winter survival gear. Activists from the movement's flagship encampment, consisting of hundreds of people in New York City's Zuccotti Park, are sorting through packages arriving daily that include coats and jackets.
In Providence, where city officials are threatening to go to court to evict hundreds of campers from a park across from City Hall, a core group said it will remain through the winter months — if not there, somewhere else. Rhode Island's capital has an average low temperature in the 20s from December through February and recorded nearly 3½ feet of snow last year. Many of the more than 100 tents are not built to withstand harsh conditions.
Temperatures were expected to drop into the 30s across much of the Northeast by Friday morning, and forecasters said snow is possible in some places over the weekend. Boston got its first dusting late Thursday night.
In Denver, as protesters prepared for this week's snow, a few dozen sympathizers stopped by to drop off blankets, gloves, chili and hot chocolate. Police refused to let activists erect a tent. That left some sleeping on the wet ground, covered by snowy tarps.
"I welcome the challenge of this cold weather," said Dwayne Hudson, a landscaper who has been living at the Occupy Denver site for nearly two weeks. "This is like war. You know, soldiers do it when they occupy a place. I'm sure the mountains of Afghanistan get pretty cold."
But after the first snowfall, he admitted: "It's getting tough."
Eric Martin, who is on Occupy Boston's winterization committee, said the group had raised about $35,000, which could help buy winter supplies. Various ideas are being discussed to keep tents warm without using combustion-based heaters, which are forbidden. Another proposal: igloos.
"We're looking at ideas from military vets to survivalists, to the homeless community to indigenous peoples," Martin said.
Activists in Philadelphia are also researching sturdier, warmer structures that could replace the 300 to 400 tents set up on the concrete plaza surrounding City Hall.
Chris Goldstein of Riverside, N.J., owns one of the tents, though he sometimes sleeps at home. He learned the hard way during the first rainfall that the site has poor drainage: "I occupied a puddle." The self-employed writer and activist put pallets under the tent to lift it off the ground, and outfitted it with small carpets for insulation.
In the meantime, he and other activists have access to a Quaker community center two blocks away where they can shower and thaw out in common rooms.
In Chicago, where winters are famously bitter, protesters living in Grant Park are working to secure several indoor locations to get them through to spring. A church nearby is letting some demonstrators sleep overnight. Activists in Portland, Ore., likewise said that moving the protest inside is the only realistic option.
Patricia Phelan and her fiancee, Savanah Kite, have been camping in the Providence park in a $20 tent from Walmart. As temperatures dipped into the 40s in the morning this week and people could see their breath, they hadn't yet employed their hand warmers or a down comforter Phelan had in the car just in case.
Their plan is to add layers as necessary.
The trick will be keeping morale up, Phelan said, "and not letting the climate get to us."

The Economist weighs in on the debate surrounding president Obama's diplomacy. Has he been clever, or weak? Does he have the strategy and the will to use force to fulfill his promises? The coming weeks, according to the Economist, may likely be his litmus test.
AT LAST Barack Obama seems to be starting to make up his mind. After months of agonising, he is apparently close to announcing that he will after all send a decent number of American reinforcements to Afghanistan (see article). Meanwhile, having barely mentioned climate change since his inauguration, he has now told the world that he is going to the international summit in Copenhagen-and with a provisional promise that the world's greatest polluter will cut emissions.
Bold stuff. But both Afghanistan and Copenhagen can also be cited as evidence of a weakness that runs through his foreign policy. It looks to many as if he has dithered, not deliberated. On Afghanistan, far from being clever, his faint-hearted attempt to talk round Congress, manage his squabbling officials and twist the arm of Hamid Karzai, the vote-rigging Afghan president, has arguably accomplished little except hand the initiative to the enemy: his generals have an uphill struggle. On climate change, the rush to Copenhagen, with no bill in sight in Congress, has an air of desperation.
This goes to the heart of the debate about Mr Obama's diplomacy. Which will he be, clever or weak? Does this president have a strategy, backed if necessary by force, to reorder the world? Or is he merely a presidential version of Alden Pyle, Graham Greene's idealistic, clever Quiet American who wants to change the world, but underestimates how bad the world is-and ends up causing harm?

The F119-PW-100 turbofan is the only operational fifth generation fighter engine today, and is the most advanced production engine combining stealth technologies and vectored thrust with high thrust-to-weight performance to provide unprecedented maneuverability and survivability.
Two Pratt & Whitney F119 engines power the U.S Air Force's F-22 Raptor. Supercruise, the ability to operate supersonically without afterburning, gives the F-22 exceptional combat performance without compromising mission range.
The F119 engine delivers unparalleled aircraft maneuverability with its unique two-dimensional pitch vectoring exhaust nozzle. This convergent/divergent nozzle vectors thrust as much as 20 degrees up or down. Nozzle position management is integrated with the F-22 flight control system and is automatically regulated by the Full-Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC), as are hundreds of other engine and aircraft operating parameters. The FADEC also features advanced diagnostics and on-condition management capability for maintenance awareness, autonomic logistics support and automatic field and test data processing.
The F119 is equipped with a number of advanced technologies for unmatched operational performance and reliability. Its three-stage integrally bladed fan is powered by a single-stage low-pressure turbine. The engine's counterrotating core has an aerodynamically efficient six-stage compressor driven by a single-stage high-pressure turbine featuring the latest single-crystal superalloy blades and advanced cooling technologies. The robust, yet compact, high-pressure compressor features the most advanced airfoil aerodynamics and integrally bladed rotor disks for ensured durability.
On December 15, 2005, the U.S. Air Force declared the F-22 Raptor combat-ready, having achieved Initial Operational Capability (IOC) status. This milestone signified the F119-powered F-22 completed its development testing and was prepared to fly and fight in defense of the United States of America and its global interests. Just two years later, on December 12, 2007, the U.S Air Force declared Full Operational Capability (FOC) for the F-22.
The proven F119 is the forefather of the advanced F135 propulsion system, currently powering the F-35 Lightning II's flight test program. To learn more about the F135 engine, click here.

I Come Messy and Ashamed
After a long day of seesawing emotions, rivers of tears, and volcanic tantrums, my son was exhausted. I read him a story and tucked him in bed for the night. Amid the crowd of his favorite blankets and cuddly stuffed animals, I squeezed in on the bed next to him.
I was disappointed by our difficult day and at my own failures to help him through it. I have learned that his heart is most tender, his soul most bare, in the quiet darkness, wrapped warm in his blue and red fire truck quilt, surrounded by all his favorite items. I snuggled with him, hoping to speak to him about the challenges of the day.
We talked about his behavior and his angry responses. I asked him what he wanted to tell God about his day. "Mommy, I just can't pray. Can you?" I know that hesitancy to come before God messy and ashamed. I've felt the same way. It's as though I think I need to be all cleaned up before I approach the throne.

The main treatment for skin cancers is cutting the tumours out. Because of that, UVA rays may damage an individual's defense mechanisms, making it more difficult to fight off diseases and leading to illnesses like melanoma , the most serious type of skin cancer.
It's a naturally occurring component of human skin which helps maintain a healthy epidermis, and works by bringing moisture in the air. Keep it all in moderation---amazing looking skin can end up looking like leather if you stay in the "oven" overly long. No matter what your skin type or how much base you have built up, consistently use a sunblock with at least an SPF rating of 15.
In regards to Ocean City, it does not matter whether you're sporting your swim suit or bracing for the cooler temperatures, at all times of the year the salty sea air welcomes you to relax by the calming waves on your beach escape.

I actually used the baking soda remedy for acne and it also helped my dry sunlight burned skin. A regular use of fresh coconut water on the hands and face is considered to be very powerful in getting rid of a suntan as well as making the skin supple and soft.
If you don't desire to lie around all day, but still desire that suntan, another choice is to go for a jog, or even a walk. For tanning, however, it is better to either wear a hat or simply keep your eyes shut rather than wear sunglasses.
On exposure to sunlight, the skin mechanically sends this pigment to the surface to help fight off the damage - the greater the sunlight exposure, the darker the melanin turns. Understanding the entire process of tanning is imperative to prevent it and treat it as time goes on. Be sure to take vitamin D supplements also, since your body needs the vitamin even though it does not want the sunlight.
The current thinking is that tanning is a biological signal by the skin that represents the existence of DNA damage. In some studies, investigators presented this by inducing tanning with external applications of DNA fragments.
In view of this, the tanning industry's message a tan offers protection against sunburn is reckless and dangerous. The tanning industry itself is considerably more vocal, blatantly and systematically promoting the "advantages" of tanning.

Harry Wilson Gets Backing By Our Media Overlords (Updated)
Wilson |
All three New York City newspaper owners have endorsed GOP comptroller candidate Harry Wilson, who is also backed by our mogul mayor.
The real Gang of Four hasn't caballed like this since the term limits extension of 2008 and the re-election of Bloomberg in 2009. Like term limits, this insider power play might have worthy consequences, because Wilson is clearly the class act of the GOP ticket. But he might also be a class war act, just like the defiant override of two publicly approved term-limit referendums was a couple of years ago.
The quartet of elite endorsements looks like another example of our media overlords knowing so much better than we do what's good for the common folk.
While the Gang is also simultaneously endorsing Andrew Cuomo in a no-choice election, they reserve this level of enthusiasm for class allies -- even a comparative millionaire piker like Wilson -- throwing oddball critiques in the direction of Wilson's opponent, Tom DiNapoli, who can make a reasonable claim that he's cleaned up the horrid mess he inherited from his convicted predecessor, Alan Hevesi.

What's really disturbing, though, is the invisible hand of Steve Rattner, another big booster of the term-limit extension. Wilson just went to Rattner's book party, which was hosted by Bloomberg and Times' publisher Arthur Sulzberger, both of whom, like Daily News publisher Mort Zuckerman, have been described as beneficiaries of Rattner's financial advice. Sulzberger and Rattner have been sweating next to each other for years in early morning gym workouts. (The third owner, Rupert Murdoch, is not a card-carrying member of the Bloomberg/Rattner axis, but endorsing Republicans is virtually a reflex reaction at his Post).
By any fair analysis, Rattner is -- and this is really odd -- Wilson's most important supporter.
Indeed, Rattner's published account of Wilson's performance as a member of the Rattner-led and Obama-appointed Auto Rescue Task Force is the only rationale for Wilson's candidacy. No one has stepped forward to challenge Rattner's portrayal of Wilson in Overhaul, and while I detailed several negatives in that portrayal a few weeks ago, Wilson emerges in its pages as a nonpartisan giant whose skillful practicality and boundless energy equip him uniquely for this job. Without this six-month stint of towering public service, Wilson would be just another bright hedge fund profiteer who hates taxing his class, as he is depicted in DiNapoli's ads.
The inconvenient truth is that Rattner looted the pension fund Wilson wants to control. Wilson's spokesman Bill O'Reilly responded to my e-mailed questions about Rattner with answers wholly inconsistent with the heated abuse Wilson has repeatedly thrown in DiNapoli's direction about the fund fraud. Asked to comment about Rattner's conduct with the fund, which is said to have earned him a $6 million fine and a two-year-ban from the securities industry, all O'Reilly would say was "Harry roundly criticizes any of the sordid conduct that took place during that time." While O'Reilly said Wilson and Rattner are "good friends," he said that Wilson "has never spoken with Steve Rattner about the investigation."
O'Reilly would also not answer questions about whether Wilson will "maintain a relationship" with Rattner should he become comptroller, or whether Wilson would "discuss any business of the office" with Rattner. He did state categorically that Rattner "has not played any role in the campaign and would not play any role in the comptroller's office," which is different from saying Wilson wouldn't discuss office matters with him.
O'Reilly's assurance that Rattner has nothing to do with the campaign is belied by a City Hall story from just a couple of weeks ago, which highlighted DiNapoli's supposed hypocrisy about Rattner by quoting an unnamed source who recounted in remarkable detail a 2008 breakfast DiNapoli had with Rattner, seeking his fundraising help with major Democratic donors. This Regency breakfast and subsequent contacts, including a previously undisclosed July 30 meeting with Rattner's firm at DiNapoli's office, occurred shortly before the Democratic National Convention in August, suggesting that the unnamed source's contention that it was tied to donors was true, contrary to DiNapoli's denials.
The hit-up sessions also came before any of Rattner's fund wrongdoing was publicly known, but while Rattner's firm was still doing substantial business with the office. City Hall cited "a source with direct knowledge" of the conversation. This source was so well informed he knew that DiNapoli picked up the tab, which means it's either the waiter or the prince of the city with egg on his face. The story was certainly a campaign-orchestrated event, suggesting that Rattner was quite willing to question DiNapoli's "character" for Wilson's benefit, as this deep throat did.
As to the broader question of whether Rattner was helping with endorsements, either directly or through Bloomberg, O'Reilly said that Wilson has "no knowledge" of Rattner talking to anyone at the Times or News about their endorsements. Ditto for Bloomberg.
The Times never answers any questions about its endorsements even as it insists on transparency from everyone else, and my efforts were rebuffed this time, as in the past. But I did manage to get Zuckerman on the phone. He assured me that he never discusses endorsements with anyone other than Arthur Browne, the editorial page editor. He denied discussing the Wilson endorsement with Rattner or Bloomberg, or talking to them about the stranger endorsement earlier this year of Reshma Saujani, the Rattner-generated candidate who snared 19 percent of the vote in a primary against incumbent eastside congresswoman Carolyn Maloney. Rattner's daughter worked in Saujani's campaign. Rattner, his wife Maureen White and Bloomberg's girlfriend Diana Taylor were Saujani's biggest name backers.
Zuckerman spent most of the interview making fun of me so I couldn't tell if he was joking when he said he "didn't have the slightest idea" that Rattner was supporting Saujani or had praised Wilson. "I didn't read Steve's book," said Zuckerman, who was listed in the acknowledgements as a loyal friend, "and I didn't know he was connected to Wilson." Looks like he doesn't read his own newspaper either, which has certainly reported on Rattner's ties to both campaigns. But the hyperventilating in Daily News editorials about both Maloney and DiNapoli -- who the paper accused recently of running "a dishonest weasel campaign" -- suggests that something more is going on here than clearheaded judgment.
The Times was a bit better behaved, but its charge that DiNapoli "failed to push hard enough to create public campaign financing for the comptroller's office" is bizarre. Hevesi collected $10 million in contributions for his 2006 race; DiNapoli a mere $3 million, precisely because he's imposed choking restraints on his fundraising that he wasn't legally obligated to do. Wilson is what the Times used to hate -- a self-funder who has bankrolled 60 percent of his own campaign costs. The paper put its denunciation of DiNapoli as too "beholden to the Democrats in control of Albany," right next to its endorsement of Attorney General candidate Eric Schneiderman, who helped install John Sampson as Democratic conference chair of the state senate and Pedro Espada as majority leader.
These wild editorial swings, and reports that DiNapoli was given such short shrift at his Times endorsement interview that the decision appeared a foregone conclusion, add to the suggestion that connections have directly or indirectly fed this process -- either Bloomberg's or Rattner's or some combination thereof. No one will ever admit this, and Bloomberg's press secretary Stu Loeser was as emphatic in his denials of any endorsement contacts as Zuckerman, suggesting that the Gang may have figured out a way to do this telepathically.
This has all happened at a time when one might expect Rattner's influence to be on the wane. Instead, the Wilson endorsements and the ballyhooed book party came at almost the same time as the revelations of the SEC/Cuomo settlements. News accounts had Rattner going from a raised glass to a bent knee literally overnight, from a party celebrating his cosmic skills to a settlement commemorating his cosmic greed. He reportedly still faces perjury charges if he doesn't conclude this pending agreement. Indeed, if Wilson closely examined the charges against Rattner as well as the agreement his company has already signed with Cuomo, he would find that the financier's conduct was among the worst of anyone involved in the many pension fund fraud cases. He not only paid a million in sham finders fees to Hank Morris, the campaign maestro who elected Hevesi and then sold tickets to their joint auction of a public fund, but also arranged a DVD distribution deal for "Chooch," the zany film project of the brother of the bureaucrat who ran the fund's day-to-day operations. Few other fund predators paid off both gatekeepers.
Yet Bloomberg has already brazenly announced that the settlement won't alter his relationship with Rattner -- personal and financial -- and Zuckerman told me much the same thing. Rattner does have redeeming social value (the auto rescue for example), but people with great public power and responsibility, from Bloomberg to Zuckerman to Wilson, must also send signals that they respect the law and are disturbed by those who break or circumvent it. Instead Margaret Carlson, a Bloomberg News columnist who wrote a memoir of the mayor that's never been released, hosted the Rattner party in Washington, just as Bloomberg and Sulzberger did here.
Most book parties recruit journalists, especially those who've already written reasonably friendly stories about a book, but Rattner's New York party excluded them, like the Huffington Post's Marcus Baram, who broke the book story (Houghton Mifflin, Rattner's book publisher, says it had nothing to do with the selective list). That meant that the owner of the greatest newspaper in the world was co-hosting a book party limited to captive journalists, vetted no doubt by one-time reporter Rattner himself.
Wilson's chummy appearance in such a crowd sends quite a different signal than the one he's projected in the campaign, when he's turned DiNapoli's single known meeting with a placement agent into broad shots at the comptroller's integrity in administering the fund. Wilson has gone so far as to link Hevesi and DiNapoli, declaring that the fund was run "as a criminal enterprise under Hevesi and DiNapoli is under investigation by Attorney General Cuomo," branding DiNapoli's protracted refusal to release his appointment schedules as "highly suspicious."
On the other hand, Wilson's reticence to confront wrongdoing in his own circle has recently repeated itself with John Faso, the former GOP assembly leader who was the party's gubernatorial candidate in 2006. Faso has been a fundraiser for Wilson, introduced Wilson at his first public appearance back in January, and, as O'Reilly put it, "has been an invaluable help" to Wilson during the campaign.
Like Rattner's firm, Quadrangle, Faso's law firm, Manatt Phelps & Phillips recently signed a settlement with Cuomo's office, agreeing to pay $550,000 in fines. But Rattner wasn't a party to Quadrangle's $12 million settlement, and is negotiating his own individually, just as Faso didn't sign Manatt's agreement. Manatt acknowledged, though, that Faso, acting as a partner/lobbyist, tried five times to set up meetings for three different clients seeking business from the pension fund. The firm agreed in the settlement that there was an "inherent" conflict of interest "in the use of placement agents and other intermediaries," which was what Faso functioned as, and that it was "a practice fraught with peril and prone to manipulation and abuse."
Faso got three of the meetings he sought, two with DiNapoli. The agreement says he wasn't licensed as a placement agent or securities broker and that he did not include these activities on his lobbying disclosure forms. One of the clients, George Kellner, had given $54,350 to Faso campaigns in recent years (including small donations from his parents). Another, Wyser Pratte, was a thousand dollar donor to Faso, who claimed he received no compensation for these efforts (perhaps because they were unsuccessful). DiNapoli, according to sources contacted by the Voice, sent Kellner to Peter Carey, the director of the comptroller's hedge fund unit. Even though Kellner was seeking business the office didn't offer, Kellner's request remained active for a year a half before it was finally declined.
O'Reilly had essentially the same answers for Faso as he did for Rattner, calling Wilson and Faso "friends" and saying that Faso has "particularly provided insight" to Wilson about the "state's budget woes and irresponsible fiscal practices." Wilson won't say if he'll "maintain a relationship" or "discuss any business of the office" with Faso, only that Faso won't do any business with the fund. In fact, O'Reilly went out of his way to say that "John has never done any business with the fund," as if Faso's failure to secure the business he sought was a badge of honor.
Asked to comment on Faso's conduct as described in the Manatt settlement, O'Reilly said: "Harry has not read it, so he doesn't have a comment. But John will have no investments in the pension fund. He was precluded the moment he started helping Harry. He well understood that -- all funders do." In fact, since Manatt is barred for five years from doing business with the office, Faso is too, if he remains there.
O'Reilly says Wilson subscribes completely to Cuomo's code of conduct, which is a set of rules for the private parties dealing with the fund, and to DiNapoli's code, which applies to the comptroller's office. He would go further, ending contributions from law firms to do business with the office, which Wilson charges has been a source of thousands in campaign contributions for DiNapoli.
But his blind eye -- and that is the only way to describe his unwillingness to read the Manatt settlement as well as his partying down with Rattner -- indicate that he is more comfortable with abstract rulemaking than with the sort of tough personal judgments this office requires. Rattner and Faso are his chance to send a signal of public reproach, to raise a wall around the office he seeks, telegraphing that he will break with anyone who tries to compromise it. He can't bash DiNapoli, or question the integrity of the fund under his management, and remain cozy with friends charged with attempting to milk it.
Update: After this item was posted, I got an e-mail from Bloomberg press secretary Stu Loeser informing me that I'd misunderstood his cryptic e-mail. I quoted him as denying that the mayor had talked to anyone at the Times or News, or with Steve Rattner, about endorsing Harry Wilson. Loeser wrote: "My 'no' was meant in response to you asking me if there was anything I'd tell you" about any role Bloomberg might have played in these endorsements. This could mean that Loeser doesn't want to leave the impression that the mayor didn't talk to his buddies Sulzberger and Zuckerman because it would be inaccurate, and he actually did. Or it could mean that Loeser wasn't commenting either way on the mayor's conversations with his fellow moguls because their conversations are encapsulated with privilege, even when they don't actually occur. You be the judge.

If you skipped this morning's commute and are reading this article in your jammies, you understand the benefits of telecommuting. You are not alone. Although fewer than two percent of working Americans are considered to be full time telecommuters, roughly 20 to 30 million people telecommute at least one day per week.1 There was a 39% increase in the number of employees working from home at least one day per month between 2006 to 2008, from 12.4 million to 17.2 million.2
Both employers and employees can enjoy the perks of telecommuting. Employees are able to reduce or eliminate their commute time, reducing the amount of money spent on gas or public transportation. Working from home may also help employees achieve that ever elusive work-life balance. Telecommuting also benefits employers due to increased satisfaction and productivity in employees, often resulting in higher retention rates. There is more to telecommuting, though, than this picture of work-at-home nirvana suggests. Telecommuting causes a host of practical and legal issues, which can trap the unwary employer, and although a telecommuting arrangement may initially appeal to both the employee and employer, it is important to take a closer look at the legal issues related to telecommuting before approving such an arrangement.

By Ginna Parsons/NEMS Daily Journal
William Tucker loves a good tomato. But some years, he has a hard time waiting for them to become fully ripe in July.
So last fall, Tucker became part of a United States Department of Agriculture experiment to see if a high tunnel, or hoophouse, could produce the bright red fruit earlier than normal in Northeast Mississippi.
"I became a Master Gardener in 2005 and had been going to workshops and vegetable shows," said Tucker, 61. "About three years ago, they started talking about high tunnels. They'd been doing them in China and Japan with great success."
From the outside, a hoophouse looks pretty much like a greenhouse, but there are two major differences. Hoophouses have no electricity, and plants are sewn directly in the ground, rather than in pots.
In theory, the high tunnel should extend the growing season by three months, meaning Tucker expects to have tomatoes six weeks earlier in the season, then have a regular summer crop, and then have a late crop that extends six weeks into the fall.
"Everything is kind of experimental this first year," said Tucker, who retired from the Mississippi Department of Transportation in 2009 after working there for 35 years. "I'll have to adjust the schedule as I go."
Traditional garden, too
Last October, Tucker and a crew of three spent a week putting up the hoophouse on his farm in Shannon. It's covered with Visquine, a plastic sheeting that protects the plants from wind, hail, frost, snow and excessive rain. The sides of the hoophouse can be opened to allow for circulation when the temperature outside is above 40 degrees.
"We got 5 to 6 inches of rain last week, but it didn't rain in there," Tucker said, pointing to the structure, which has 20-foot-wide openings along the front and the back. An irrigation system allows just the right amount of water.
An added bonus is that because the plants aren't stressed by the elements, they tend to be healthier, which means fewer pests.
The 200 tomato plants Tucker planted the last day of February are already thigh-high and covered in yellow blooms. A few of the plants even have small tomatoes on them.
"I had to go all the way to Biloxi to get the plants," he said. "I'm shooting to have tomatoes by Memorial Day at the Tupelo Farmer's Market."
Tucker has been a regular vendor at the market since it opened in 2000.
Tomatoes aren't the only things growing in Tucker's high tunnel. He also has squash, zucchini, peppers, zinnias and sunflowers.
"The flowers are mine," said Tucker's wife, Patty, who is the director of the North Mississippi chapter of the American Red Cross. "And I guess you could also say I'm the blackberry and the strawberry picker."
But the berries aren't growing in the hoophouse. The Tuckers also have a traditional garden, which is planted with English peas, new potatoes, cabbage, onions, greens and another 200 tomatoes.
"He loves this. He is doing what he loves," Patty Tucker said. "It's not work for him. After about two hours, it's work to me. But he's living his dream, being a full-time farmer."
Three-year experiment
For three years, Tucker will keep the data on his plants in the hoophouse for the USDA.
"The government wants to see if a high tunnel will do here," he said. "I have to keep up with my expenses and stuff to see if it's feasible to do this – if it's profitable."
Tucker said the snow earlier this year almost threw him for a loop.
"It was touch and go during the snow season," he said. "It was just covered. And the wind has been rough on it, too, but it's held up real well. At the end of the season, I'll know if it was worth the work."

The Import and Merge functions allow you to import the landscape from an existing map, and then merge any changes you make to the landscape back to the existing map. It is not meant for general purpose map editing! WorldPainter is, and always will be, a map generator, not a map editor. Note that this functionality is dangerous! Use it at your own risk. Please see this post for important information about how these functions work, and their limitations.
This tool is not meant to create ready to run single player maps, it's meant to create server levels and adventure maps. The idea is to create the basic landscape, with your mountain ranges, oceans, forests, snow and ice, lakes, hills, etc. using the tool, and then go in and fill in the details with other tools.
