Sharapova to face Halep in final
Maria Sharapova will play first-timer Simona Halep in the French Open final on Saturday.
Sharapova reached the final at Roland Garros for the third successive year with a 4-6 7-5 6-2 victory over Eugenie Bouchard while Halep defeated Andrea Petkovic 6-2 7-6 (7/4).
Fourth-seed Halep has been the highest-ranked player left in the tournament for some time but she had reached just one grand slam quarter-final before.
Now she is through to the final without dropping a set and will climb to world number three on Monday.
It has been an incredible year for both Halep and Petkovic.
Halep was ranked 57th and lost in the first round at Roland Garros 12 months ago while Petkovic was defeated in qualifying and considered quitting tennis as she tried to battle back from a series of injuries.
The German appeared to be the more nervous of the two and Halep won the first set in just 28 minutes, her brand of graceful, intelligent tennis too much for the wayward Petkovic.
She improved significantly in the second set but let an early break slip away and Halep was the stronger in the tie-break.
Sharapova, who won the title in 2012 before losing to Serena Williams 12 months ago, maintained her remarkable record in three-set matches, winning a 19th consecutive deciding set on clay .
Bouchard, who was playing in her second straight grand slam semi-final, had lost comfortably to Sharapova in the second round last year and demonstrated again the huge strides she has made.
She possesses the same steely-eyed determination as Sharapova and her mental strength is remarkable for a 20-year-old.
The Canadian said after beating Angelique Kerber in the fourth round that she did not have a best friend in tennis, adding: "I don't think the tennis tour is the place to have friends. For me, it's all competition."
It was a sentence that could well have been written by Sharapova so it was no surprise that this was not a match for the faint-hearted.
Bouchard has improved significantly since making the last four at the Australian Open in January, hitting the ball a lot more aggressively, and it was she who struck first with a break for 2-1.
Sharapova fought back to level at 4-4 but Bouchard forged ahead again immediately and held to take the set, saving a break point with the gutsiest of backhand winners onto the line.
Sharapova had recovered from a set down in both her last two matches against Sam Stosur and Garbine Muguruza and set about doing the same, moving into a 5-2 lead.
But the Russian's serve, never something to be relied upon, was having an off day and, serving for the set, she twice double-faulted on set point.
There was also a second-serve ace on a break point for good measure but on her third chance Bouchard pounced.
The 20-year-old was unable to resist when Sharapova broke again at 5-5, though, and this time the seventh seed clinched the set when Bouchard netted a forehand.
Bouchard had never lost a grand slam match in which she had won the first set before but the sense was Sharapova's prowess in deciding sets would be the crucial factor.
The Russian moved ahead at 3-1, and for the first time Bouchard was making bad mistakes on the big points.
She held for 4-2, saving two break points, but in the next game missed a routine forehand and a volley as Sharapova moved to within one game of victory.
Bouchard fought on, saving four match points in terrific style, but there was nothing she could do when a Sharapova forehand fizzed off the baseline after two hours and 27 minutes.

Album Rating: 4.5Sounds awesome, great review bread!
Good review man, thanks.
No problems
[QUOTE=Liberi Fatali]Great review for a great album, I've been looking for this album for ages. Aphex Twin is one of the best band/artists/Dj's that have come out of Australia in a long time.[/QUOTE]
Uhhh, I don't think Aphex twin is australian. British methinks.
I thought he was like German or something...
Grew up in Cornwall, I think.
Yep, i think he's from Cornwall. He also owns a tank which he likes to drive through his backyard.
Good review.
This is not my favorite album of his, but it's quite good. And given the fact that he was so young when he made it and the fact that he makes many of his own instruments, it's brilliant.
I really haven't heard much about Aphex Twin, which was introduced to me by my friend last year. I'll definitely check him out.
[QUOTE=sum1soiledMyBongos]Yep, i think he's from Cornwall. He also owns a tank which he likes to drive through his backyard.
Aphex Twin (Richard James) went to high school with the media technician from my college. So he is quite definitely British.
I love this album. Great review.
He's Richard James, bitch!
:lol: Don't apologise, that was great.
/easily amused
:lol: Genius.
Album Rating: 5.0:lol: that was good.
i must get this album. apparently he played at Glastonbury, but under a different name? anyone got anything on that?
He was at Big Day Out last year as Aphex Twin :confused:
He also goes by AFX sometimes. Aphex Twin's cool enough a name though, I dunno why he has multiple names.
This album is otherworldy brilliant. Definately buy this, if you haven't already.
Album Rating: 4.0I keep meaning to get this album, but nowhere near me seems to sell it at a remotely-reasonable price.
Great review though. You've renewed my enthusiasm in finding it. How would you say it compares to Ambient Works Vol. II, because I hear they're quite disimilar records...
I almost bought this cd a month ago. I didn't know if it was decent or not, but now I regret not getting it.
according to your review, it's incredibly good
This is a great album but I prefer the other Ambient works to be honest.

Friedman Sets Phil Donahue Straight
(Editor's note: Today marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of famed economist Milton Friedman. The Mackinac Center will celebrate with blog posts commemorating his impact on free-market ideology and his educational choice.)
Milton Friedman's 1979 interview with Phil Donahue includes a brief segment in which the two men discuss a common criticism advanced against proponents of the free market: capitalists are greedy. It serves as an example of an oft-recited complaint among those against whom such criticism is advanced.
Stay Engaged
The victims of this character assassination protest that "self-interest" is not the same thing as "selfishness." Friedman does a fantastic job of identifying the way that capitalism is associated with vice, and clarifying the distinction between greed and free trade such that the association seems totally inappropriate, as it surely is. Not only that, but he does so with charm and good humor. That he refuses to succumb to resentment or bitterness in the face of misinformed animosity speaks to the strength of his character. As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of this great economist's birth, we would do well to remember that he was also a great man.

Production companies and photographic markets use these plastic filters to add color to stage scenery and to provide color correction for theatre, film, and television. Gel creates mood by changing the color shade of light. Apollo Gel are coated on both sides of the polyester base because many designers and DP's appreciate and demand the color consistency found in this process and therefore where ever good consistency and transparent colors are required surface coated should be the only choice to ensure perfectly even color consistency throughout the batch and from batch to batch.
There are two widely-accepted gel manufacturing processes: double-coated and deep dyed. Apollo gel is double-coated because many designers appreciate the color consistency found in the double-coated process.
Color recommended for general stage wash.
Possible Uses / Suggestions: A deep, clean blue. Good for cool color washes. Good for nighttime scenes. A rich blue.

This topic comes up quite a lot on technology websites, but I generally try to steer clear from it as much as possible, since I'm not the one to talk about it (you know, with me being a man and all that), however, I feel it might be a good idea to just get my opinion out there and be done with it. The topic of women in IT is a hot-button issue, so let me just go out guns blazing: assuming women need special treatment, help, protection, and affirmative action is just as insulting and degrading as outright claiming women have no place in IT - maybe even more so.

Eagles and falcons and vultures, oh my! There were birds aplenty at this year's Raptor Fest in Prospect Park. Anybody know what a raptor is? No, they're not dinosaurs, they're actually birds of prey! Every year, the New York City Parks Department brings about a dozen birds of prey to a city park for its annual Raptor Fest, where this year over one thousand people came to admire these amazing birds! This year's guests of honor were a Bald Eagle, a Harris Hawk, a Barn Owl, a Peregrine Falcon, a Turkey Vulture, a Red-Tailed Hawk, and more raptors from all over the world. The birds were on display for all to see, and twice they were released to fly around their pen and do tricks for the audience. But don't worry about these captive birds just being circus animals; all the birds have been injured so that they can't survive in the wild anymore, and spend most of their days happily on a reserve all the way up in Buffalo, NY.
The Urban Park Rangers were there too, playing games, giving out prizes and doing crafts with kids. Next time you're in a park, see if you can find a Ranger and ask them to tell you more about raptors!

Hamilton, Ohio-based Myron Bowling Auctioneers has reset the auction date from Feb. 9 to Feb. 21 for the liquidation of Carriage Inc.'s assets. Inspection is scheduled for Feb. 20 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
According to Myron Bowling's website (click here), the auction proceedings will begin at 9 a.m. at Carriage's long-time headquarters in Millersburg, Ind.
Carriage was a venerable manufacturer known for its inventive engineering and commitment to quality, building high-end fifth-wheels under the Cabo, Cameo, Carri-Lite and Royals International brands. Auction listings include finished RVs, raw materials, brand names and equipment.
Carriage Assets Will Go on Auction Block Feb. 9
January 3, 2012 by RVBusiness · 6 Comments
Myron Bowling Auctioneers, Hamilton, Ohio, is advertising the "complete liquidation" of the assets for luxury fifth-wheel manufacturer Carriage Inc., scheduled for 9 a.m. on Feb. 9 at the company's Millersburg, Ind., headquarters.
Carriage was a venerable manufacturer known for its inventive engineering and commitment to quality, building high-end fifth-wheels under the Cabo, Cameo, Carri-Lite and Royals International brands. Auction listings include finished RVs, raw materials, brand names and equipment. (For details, click here.)
News first surfaced in mid-October that Carriage, founded by Clarence Yoder in 1969, was having financial troubles. RVBUSINESS.com reported that PNC Bank out of Indianapolis had filed suit Oct. 18 to take possession of Carriage, which reportedly owed the bank more than $5 million. The suit came a day after around 180 Carriage workers were furloughed.
The bank was demanding immediate payment of overdue loans and maintained in the suit in Elkhart County Superior Court I that Carriage owner Glenn Cushman was in default of his financial obligations to PNC Bank from as far back as September of 2009, requiring the issuance of several loan extensions.
Rick Van Es, who was hired six weeks prior to the filing at the request of PNC Bank to engineer a restructuring of the company, claimed at the time that Carriage was "blindsided" after submitting a viable turnaround plan to PNC.
"We were very much blindsided because the other thing that happened here is that the company was requested to find replacement financing for PNC," Van Es told RVBUSINESS.com. "PNC had suggested that if the company could replace its operating line of credit – and also bring in enough money to pay down the mortgage to an 85% loan-to-value – that the bank would be happy to continue to move forward with the company.
"The company raised all the money that was required to achieve that, and we actually have not only commitment letters from those lenders, we were actually reviewing contracts and got to the point where our new lenders asked PNC for payoff letters, and PNC would not provide them. At the end of the day, what PNC said was 'we're not interested; we're going to file a suit."
After the proceedings with PNC became public, RVBUSINESS.com reported that Carriage owners and dealers rallied behind the builder.
"We've had an outpouring of concern from Carriage owners, 90 dealers, nothing but positive support for us, and it's sad," said Ed Kinney, vice president of sales and marketing for Carriage. "It affects 200 people in the community, the vendors and dealers nationwide and in Canada. Actually, we've got units on line right now that are supposed to be going to England, and the bank won't work with us to make this work."
Despite reports in local media that PNC and Carriage were close to an agreement, no deal was ever finalized.

The draft proposals incorporate the Shooting Ground owned by the Greenfield Family together with some adjacent land.
It is early days for this project but we want to reassure you that, should it progress, relocation to a new site is very much a part of our thinking. Our aim is most certainly for the business to continue to serve its valued customers.
The Gunshop and Shooting Ground will continue as normal on our Sturry site and will do so for some time yet.
You will be advised as soon as there is news of any changes to this situation and do please speak to Tim Greeenfield or a member of staff if you have any questions re the above.

There's a lot of 'form over function' criticism levelled at Knog for some of the Australian manufacturer's more esoteric gear. It's rarely a gripe that applies to their bags though, which are some of the best constructed and well thought out luggage out there, and the Dry Dog is no exception. An excellent quality waterproof pannier with an integral laptop sleeve and some clever detailing, the Dry Dog is certainly a bag you can grow to love.
It's made from waterproof PU coated nylon fabric, and there's a roll top closure beneathe the generous top flap that renders the bag completely waterproof for the wet winter commute. The solid back panel features a Klickfix mount and a hook at the base, both of which are amply adjustable for pretty much any rack. The Dry Dog is a symmetrical design so you can fit it either side of the bike, and we had no trouble getting it to fit our test racks. It's a comfy bag off the bike too, with a good quality shoulder strap. You get clips to tidy it over the top of the bag but in reality you can just stuff it under the flap, and the clips will rattle around inside making you think you've remembered your keys when you haven't.
On the outside there's a decent smattering of reflective, that shoulder strap and some natty illustration. On the inside you get, well, space. At the back of the bag against the back panel there's a laptop sleeve that serves equally well for keeping papers tidy, and there's a net pocket attached to that for stuff you don't want to rattle around, but there's not much by way of organisation inside other than that. There's plenty of room for a change of clothes, a laptop and some sandwiches; in spite of the face that it's waterproof you'll probably want to keep your clothes in a bag just to stop them rubbing up against all the detritus that'll accumulate at the bottom of the Dry Dog. Well, if you're anything like me.
Knog's bags are generally good, and this one is no exception. It's not cheap but for all-weather commuting or light touring it's a well made and functional bit of luggage, with a bit of style.

Trust has been identified as a key element of successful conflict resolution (including negotiation and mediation). This is not surprising insofar as trust is associated with enhanced cooperation, information sharing, and problem solving.
The need for trust arises from our interdependence with others. We often depend on other people to help us obtain, or at least not to frustrate, the outcomes we value (and they on us). As our interests with others are intertwined, we also must recognize that there is an element of risk involved insofar as we often encounter situations in which we cannot compel the cooperation we seek. Therefore, trust can be very valuable in social interactions.

| WMU News
KALAMAZOO—Twitter messages requesting Japanese books to support Western Michigan University's new major in Japanese garnered thousands of donations, as well as dozens of heartwarming and heartrending letters.
Dr. Jeffrey Angles, WMU associate professor of world languages and literatures and director of the Soga Japan Center, was in Japan in early 2011 when he wrote a series of Twitter messages calling for the donations. Angles had been working with his colleagues at WMU to offer Japanese as an academic major. The major would be offered starting with the 2012 fall semester, but he was concerned there were too few Japanese-language holdings in the University's Waldo Library.
To Angles' surprise, his tweets went viral. Materials came pouring in by the boxful, before and after March 11, 2011, when Japan suffered the largest earthquake in recorded history.
Angles tweeted that even though Michigan had suffered from the economic downturn in the United States, interest in Japanese studies here had never been stronger. As a teacher, he hoped to expand access at WMU to Japanese-language books and other materials to inspire his students.
"The response was overwhelming," Angles said. "At the time I wrote the tweets, I only had about 80 followers so I expected only a few friends to send books. But within moments, my tweet was retweeted hundreds of times, and the number of people following me skyrocketed. The first box of books arrived at my Tokyo apartment less than eight hours after the first tweet!"
Within three days, Angles had received so many boxes of books that it was practically impossible to move in the apartment. Over hundreds of hours, he opened every box, sorted the materials, and sold duplicate and unnecessary items to used bookstores. Then he repacked the remaining books and worked with a Japanese shipping company to send them to WMU. About two weeks into the donation drive, Angles had to beg people to send their books directly to Kalamazoo.
Many treasures found
Cataloguing staff members in WMU's Waldo Library have spent the past two years working their way through all the donations that have come in. To date, they have processed 2,951 books, and there are still many more, mostly paperbacks, waiting to be processed.
Among the donations, Angles has found treasures such as:
- the complete works of famous authors;
- dictionaries;
- encyclopedias;
- popular novels;
- richly illustrated art history books; and
- complete sets of popular manga—Japanese-style comic books.
Touching correspondence sent
Angles said what has been most touching to him are the letters that came with the books. One woman sent a big collection with a note explaining that the books used to belong to her father who had passed away. She had not known what to do with them until reading the tweets calling for donations. Other letters came from students who explained that they wanted to send their favorite manga to students in America. "There were dozens and dozens of wonderful letters like that," Angles said. "The outpouring of kindness and generosity moved me deeply."
Among the donors were several people with Kalamazoo connections, including residents of Numazu, Kalamazoo's sister city located near Mount Fuji, who collected several dozen books.
"They were excited to be able to contribute to Kalamazoo, a city that they knew and loved," Angles said. "I can't imagine how surprised the people at the library must have been when they saw the enormous crates."
After the March 11 earthquake, he began receiving tweets and messages from people in northeastern Japan. "They wrote to me to tell me that their houses had been half-destroyed, and as they were cleaning up the chaos, they didn't know what to do with their books," he said. "They offered to send them to me so that they would be safe in Michigan. I cried the first time I received one of those messages, and they kept on coming."
Six months after returning to Kalamazoo, Angles received a large package from the disaster zone. The package was full of Japanese translations of famous European novels with a note that the books belonged to a man killed in the earthquake. "Each time I walk through the literature section of the library and see the black spines of that particular set of books, I feel overcome with sadness," Angles said.
"Thanks to all of our donors, WMU now has a magnificent collection of modern and contemporary Japanese literature, including many of Japan's most famous authors," he added. "We also have a huge collection of manga. I hope that inspires some students to work on their Japanese.

Many faces in different dispositions. Created for two special people that will know what this painting means.
Paul Cezzane said, "A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art." I began my expression in art in 2007. I always thought I would become an architect. Well needless to say years have gone by and I am not an architect. I feel I impress my regret into my paintings. I cannot go backward, I am moving forward and the wanna be architect in me shines through my paintings in one way or another. I feel that some paintings are prophetic or beyond what we can see here on this earth logically. My painting "Dragon Fire" in some ways correlates to my late nephews life, he saw that the painting contained a dog way in the background overshadowing the hurt and pain and a dragon breathing fire and destruction mid-section going through...

OK, you've had nearly a third of the year. Lost that weight? Smoking a thing of the past? Nicer to your husband? If you are like many people, such resolutions have disappeared as completely as the bubbles in your Champagne toast. But you can start again.
We all have habits that we could stand to break. But desire isn't everything, and it can be difficult to know where to start and frustrating to carry on through setbacks, temptation and outright failure.
Still, in order to live healthful and productive lives, many of us need to make changes. Experts range in their opinions about the proper way to confront bad habits, but all agree that it can be done.

My background: I am a 18-year-old student from Germany and have some programming experience in different languages, however I have so far not used C++ very much.
My aim: I want to write a simple Tetris game using C++ and the SDL library. I have already used the SDL library to some extent in a previous C++ program of mine that I didn't finish.
My question: I am a bit lost when it comes to implementing the game logic so I hope you can help me. This is only about the game logic, not about the engine and so on. I thought I'd use a two-dimensional array (vector) of ints to store the tetris field whereas the values in the array represent the colors of the tetris stones. E.g., a value of zero means, there is no stone at this position, 1 is for red, 2 to for blue and so forth.
But then I need an extra struct or class or something to store the current element that is moving down until it hits an existing stone. And I would need two simultaneous loops running concurrently, one for moving the current element down step by step and another one for tracking the keyboard input.
If anyone has an idea how to implement this reasonably please don't hesitate to post it.
Thanks a lot, David.

Among NBA hot topics, the discussion about referees remains among the hottest for fans.
Ask anyone in San Antonio, and they'll tell you that Joey Crawford's alleged hatred of the San Antonio Spurs is as inevitable as death and taxes. Folks in Sacramento remain convinced that Dick Bavetta — who played such a pivotal part in their Sacramento Kings' painful 2002 Western Conference finals loss to the Los Angeles Lakers — has it out for them. Then there's the ghost of shamed former official Tim Donaghy and his 2007 betting scandal.
But the mystery that always surrounded the officials, the lack of transparency from the league and the fact that the system for evaluating their referees was kept mostly behind the curtain, always fed this fire of conspiracy theories and conjecture. Until now.
NBA CAUCUS: Analytics or old school?
NUMBERS: Adding to and dividing NBA
New NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has vowed to have an open dialogue about officiating that he hopes will bridge the gap between fact and fiction. And while his new methods have caused some early concerns that this will lead to even more criticism than before, the most ardent critic on the other side sees this as a significant step forward.
"I love it," Dallas Mavericks owner and resident pain-in-officials'-sides Mark Cuban told USA TODAY Sports via e-mail. "We are the only top league where some fans question the integrity of the league. That will change under Adam."
VIDEO: One-on-one with Commissioner Silver
USA TODAY Sports talks to NBA Commissioner Adam Silver courtside for a one-on-one interview.
Mike Bantom, the NBA's executive vice president of referee operations, participated in last weekend's MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference in Boston to discuss referee analytics.
As Bantom described on the panel, the days of having an on-site observer in every arena are over. Now every game, every call and even the non-calls are watched twice by someone in a centralized location in the New Jersey/New York area. The NBA, Bantom said, has "close to a million events logged for every referee on our staff."
"We've built up a database of all of our officials across different categories and … what percentages of incorrect calls (exist)," Bantom said. "We learn to identify individual areas for improving staff, areas for improvement. And then we conduct our training regimen to address those needs."
Technology is playing a bigger part than ever. In-arena video information provided by STATS tracks the movements of players and officials alike by cameras that shoot at 25 frames per second. While this information is no longer shared with team officials now that the NBA contracts with STATS directly (the company previously had individual relationships with teams), the league has the ability to monitor everything from a referee's position on individual calls to the tough-to-quantify hustle factor.
ZEN MASTER: Phil Jackson on Lakers, return to NBA, more
MARK CUBAN: Prospects should skip college for D-League
There is more frequent acknowledgement of mistakes that are made as well. Internal memos are occasionally sent to teams about controversial calls and some re-evaluation of events even being released to the media. It isn't just the blown calls being emphasized, however, as there is also a new charge to highlight pivotal calls that were made correctly. This is to emphasize the positives.
Yet as Bantom told USA TODAY Sports, it's not just the fans who need to be convinced that the league is doing everything it can to improve this part of its product. Owners and executives have been complaining for years that they didn't know enough about the ins and outs of the officiating world, and they're eager to learn more.
"At the end of last year, we just said, 'What are some ways in which we can make our teams feel that we're really not trying to hide anything from them?' " Bantom said. "That's the attitude that a lot of people (with teams) had, that ... the officiating department, they're over there by themselves and they're doing stuff and we don't know it. No, we work for you, too. So what do you want us to do? We'll do what you want us to do. There has just never been that kind of open conversation before, and I think now we're having it."
The internal consensus, Bantom said, is that there is mostly good work being done by the league's 60 officials.
"Our best guys do it at a remarkable level," he said. "And the difference is small percentage points, so how bad can our worst guy be? There are too many common misconceptions out there, and I want to change that by revealing the facts."
GALLERY: NBA photo of the day
John Ball is hoping to take this conversation took to the next level.
After spending more than 20 years in the technology industry, Ball decided to embark on a bold adventure three years ago. Through his company Beyond Box Scores, he tried to shed new light on officiating inefficiencies from outside the league's umbrella. With his home base in Phoenix, Ariz., a business partner in San Francisco and a host of game-watching contractors at his disposal, he built a database that boasts 99.5% coverage of calls from the past two seasons and which continues to grow this season.
Ball's research paper, which was titled "Refs Revealed: Many NBA Referees are "More Equal" (and Less Equal) Than Others," was published at the Sloan conference and could be the only known third-party contribution to the officiating debate. In much the same way that player statistics are being used to portray the meaning behind their every move, Ball is advocating referee analytics that could further improve transparency while offering a competitive advantage for teams and players on the floor.
In his paper, he explores the frequency (and vast discrepancy) with which referees call everything from defensive 3-second violations to technical fouls and block/charge calls. His business pitch is fluid, with Ball having considered everything from partnering with individual teams (he had one team as a client in the regular season in 2012-13, and a second team during that postseason), media companies or individual players to perhaps serving as a complementary service to the NBA. This is, potentially, the next wave of the movement that is going a new direction under Silver.
"Season ticket holders, ticket holders, they are paying good money to see a good product on the floor," Ball told USA TODAY Sports. "And there are a lot of people who care about the outcome of games.
"Every vertical market has some kind of feedback mechanism, a check and balance system for third parties to try to improve or at least inform other patrons about the quality of the service provider. ... I don't know to what extent the numbers should be published or made available, but I do think that having some information is useful. I think a third party who is doing it like we are, and who does it responsibility without just dumping a whole bunch of information out there, is probably a good way to go. What we do is try to provide a sliver of information — who's calling the fouls? — and then letting readers or users of this information decide for themselves."
It is, apparently, the new way of their shared world.

President Obama's speech Tuesday outlining his blueprint for immigration reform offered a strong commitment to fixing a broken system, even going so far as to deliver this ultimatum to lawmakers: "If Congress is unable to move forward in a timely fashion, I will send up a bill based on my proposal and insist that they vote on it right away."
Obama's remarks are in stark contrast to previous speeches in which he called for immigration reform but provided little evidence that he would exercise the political muscle necessary to get such a deal. This time, the president offered both.
I think Obama's pledge to put a bill before lawmakers if Republicans and Democrats fail to reach their own is a very real and powerful threat. Democrats don't want to lose ground with Latino voters, labor and other groups who support overhauling the current system.
TRANSCRIPT: President Obama's speech on immigration reform
And the GOP is facing mounting pressure to recast its brand with Latinos, who overwhelmingly cast their votes for Obama in key states such as Florida and Nevada after Mitt Romney unveiled his "self-deportation" fantasy -- created in some alternative universe where immigrants who are here illegally, and already enduring tough lives, would simply pack up and leave if only life became too hard for them in this country. In fact, it's almost as if Republicans need an immigration reform bill as much as undocumented immigrants do.

Few people have heard of the Western Pistachio Association (WPA). But if you are a pistachio producer, you will — if you haven't already.
It was formed about 15 years ago as an insurance association in case the California Pistachio Commission (CPC) was voted into oblivion, which happened this spring when Paramount Farms flexed its muscle and killed the marketing order.
WPA is now trying to pick up the pieces from the CPC explosion.
Michael Woolf of Woolf Farming, Huron, Calif., is chairman of WPA and the driving force, along with longtime Washington, D. C., pistachio industry lobbyist Bob Schramm, in hastily ramping up WPA into a replacement for CPC.
Right now WPA has only about 200 members, who voluntarily pay $2 per acre — which won't generate the $1.5 million the association needs to ramp up WPA.
At an annual meeting held during the CPA annual conference at Monterey, Woolf told a packed room that WPA will immediately raise dues to $5 per acre until the next crop comes in, then change the member assessment to 1.75 cents per pound.
Woolf was encouraged by the turnout at the meeting. "There weren't this many people in the room when the California Pistachio Commission idea started," he said
Schramm and Woolf admit it's difficult for a volunteer organization to be as effective as a mandatory assessment marketing order or commission. But Schramm points out that there are successful volunteer groups in California, citing specifically California Citrus Mutual, the California Grape and Tree Fruit League, and Western Growers.
Woolf says the new focus of WPA is to protect the investment in CPA by taking over some, but not all, of the commission's activities.
WPA is focusing on maintaining production research, monitoring world pistachio trade to look for unfair trade practices, maintaining the federal Market Access Program (MAP), and perhaps maintaining the nutritional research program now funded by CPC.
Woolf admits the WPA's new focus was hastily put together in a 10-day period with a series of conference calls among the 20 board members, which will be expanded to 25 with the new projects. WPA welcomes input from everyone in the industry, Woolf says.
Asked about the generic promotion and marketing program now funded through CPC, Woolf says the processors have indicated they will pick up that part of the CPC program.
Historically, Woolf says, voluntary associations have had problems with "free riders" who are unwilling to pay dues and let others take care of the problems.
"It would be unfair and unwise to ignore the huge investment you have in your pistachio business and rely on others to carry your water," he says.
"As I look forward at the estimates for production in the coming years, I am both excited and concerned. We can't assume things will be the same — we need to remember the lessons that got us here. Our industry's founding fathers knew the importance of working for the benefit of the entire industry."
Woolf said he believes WPA "provides the best opportunity for our industry to move forward."
The WPA hastily put together the annual meeting to coincide with CPC's last conference. "We have to hit the ground running and not wait six months" until the CPC is out of business," says Woolf.
The goal is to either set up a WPA office in the Valley or hire a management firm to oversee the organization.

Cold Hit by State's DNA Database Results in Arrest of Man for 1992 Mission Viejo Rapes
SANTA ANA - Attorney General Bill Lockyer announced today that a "cold hit" made at the California Department of Justice (DOJ) DNA Laboratory in Berkeley last month has resulted in the arrest of a suspect in a series of 1992 sexual assaults and other crimes in Mission Viejo. A "cold hit" occurs when DNA information stored in DOJ's databank matches the DNA from crime scene evidence which leads local law enforcement to a suspect in a case with no previous suspects.
Daniel Metzler, 37, of Chalmette, Louisiana, was arrested last week and brought to California to face sexual assault and kidnap charges stemming from the 1992 attacks.
Metzler was identified as a suspect when DOJ's DNA databank, containing Metzler's DNA profile, matched the DNA profile developed from the evidence at the 1992 Mission Viejo crime scene.
Blood and saliva samples are taken from individuals convicted of sexual assaults and other violent crimes in California. The samples yield "DNA profiles" which are stored in the DOJ database and searched against DNA profiles from crime scene evidence. Metzler's DNA profile was on file at the DOJ Berkeley lab because of a 1983 rape conviction.
This is the fourth match, or "cold hit" made by the DOJ DNA Lab since 1994. These cold hits have identified suspects in stymied cases, allowing local law enforcement agencies to compile the additional evidence necessary to arrest and charge the individuals.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bambina19 from Gorgeous Jumpsuit This jumpsuit is just so pretty and comfy too. It's true to its size. I'm 5'10 and bought small. The length was perfect and I can either wear it with sandals or high heals. I have received so many compliments about this jumpsuit because it looks like a skirt but then it's a one piece put together that looks incredible. The color is great but maybe add a white or beige.
Date published: 2013-07-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by SimpleBeauty from SUMMER CUTE I wanted to try this before purchasing online... it took a while but I ended up loving it! I tried the S (140lbs 34.27.42 for ref) and it fits comfortably. It is really long, but then I am 5'4", would need to wear it with heels... preferably wedges for the relaxed look I was looking for. The lining underneath is stretchy so that's a plus (fits my curvy frame really well) and the material ontop is soft and flowy. The top section however was more "baggy" on me but I don't have a long torso so it's expected. Ladies my height and shorter may experience that too. Still overall a very cute, relaxed jumpsuit. I agree with the other reviewer that it would be fabulous in different colors. I think I'll cross my fingers and wait for that since I have way too many bebe clothing in black and/or white.
Date published: 2013-07-03
Rated 4 out of 5 by Deni from Classy and beautiful, material is amazingly soft I typically don't buy jumpsuits as they don't seem to fit well on my long waist but I tried this one on for fun. It is so beautiful and the fabric is incredibly soft. I haven't found the zipper as mentioned in the online description as it went on quite easily by just pulling it on. I rated it four stars instead of five as the band at the top seems to fit a little loose which may mean I have to wear it with the optional straps. And the top does seem a bit billowy even though I am a size D cup. However, the bottom seems TTS. I bought a medium and it fits well and I typically wear a M or L in Bebe clothing. Long pant legs means wearing it with heals only for my average height. Would look great in other colors.

Have You Discovered Cropping?
Now, I truly believe any photo is better than no photo of an ancestors grave. However, some photos have the tombstone surrounded by so much grass that the grass is the focus of the image rather than the tombstone. Since I don't want to embarrass anyone who is willing to do this service for others, I'll use my own photos in the case study. What you'll see is a photo where the gravestone is not the center.
Did you notice the legs of my tripod in this photo as well? Yep! That's so distracting. But thanks to a cropping tool, I can reduce the grass around the tombstone and crop out the tripod. Then I have a photo like this:
|James M and Doris C Flynn
St. Joseph Cemetery
Lockbourne, Ohio
So, if you haven't discovered cropping, please look into it. Your photos will look so much better!

<–Pops, Aunt Martha & Marcus Garvey Carlton —>
Olga's Diary (Continued)
Big Scandal: My very favourite nun, Sister Marie-Thérèse, told me one day when I was at Alpha Academy, that Jamaica has the largest number of churches per square mile in the entire world. Many are beautiful, old, stone buildings going back to the 1800s. Religion has always been important to Jamaicans and especially to my family. Mammie says we are high Catholics, which I think makes us sound special, but to be honest, I don't know what the difference is between a high Catholic and a low one. It's one of those questions I don't like to ask in case people think I'm stupid.
We always put on our best Sunday clothes when we go to mass. Mammie says how we dress is important because clothes say a lot about you. Ragged clothes are a sign of poverty but even the poorest person wouldn't dream of going to church without putting their best clothes on, clean shoes and a proper hat, and not a scarf, because that doesn't cover your head properly. Mammie is very particular about us all looking clean and smart and when we were at school she would keep us away rather than send any of us off without clean, ironed school uniforms. In Jamaica being well dressed is a sign of your social status and it's important to your sense of self respect and self worth, Mammie says.
Going to church is a social occasion and after mass, standing around outside the Church, you can catch up on all the gossip. Unfortunately, quite a lot of it has been about the Browneys lately so we haven't hung around for too long.
Whit Sunday: My sisters Dolly, Ruby, Pearl and I had decided to go to an early mass so that afterwards we could catch a boat to Port Royal and spend the day on the beach and swim and have a picnic. We had just returned to our pew after receiving Holy Communion when I was aware of a click-clacking sound coming from behind me and turned round to see what it was. It was coming from Vivie and her silver dance shoes. I couldn't believe my eyes. There she was, still wearing the tight, low cut red dress she had bought to go to Freddie Howell's birthday party the previous night. On her head was a small scarf which didn't quite cover her newly bleached blonde hair.
"Is it a wig" Dolly whispered to me?
Vivie must have been aware of the stir she was causing in the Church, but, her faith is as important to her as it is to the rest of us and she knew that even if the congregation and God judged her to be a sinner, God, at least, would forgive her.
All eyes were on her and at the same time varying commotions erupted around the Church. There were plenty of gasps from onlookers as she click clacked down the aisle towards the altar rail. Some people were whispering, quite a few were muttering loudly and some distinct words could be heard…… "common, trash, looks like a whore"…… and some whose mouths were opened in astonishment.
Vivie and her shoes click clacked their way down the aisle heading straight for the altar rail. She knelt down and waited to receive Communion from Father Butler. He had seen Vivie approaching and was aware of the stir she was causing in the Church.
Father Butler told Mammie later that before he reached Vivie he had decided what he was going to do. And he did it. In front of hundreds of people he walked straight past her without giving her Holy Communion.
It was a slight of monumental proportions, and by now you could have heard a pin drop because there was total silence in the cathedral.and for what seemed like forever Vivie remained on her own kneeling at the altar rail.
Then she stood up and turned to face the congregation. She looked around at the faces in front of her, lifted her hand and slowly removed the scarf. That one defiant gesture, or it may have been the sight of the blonde hair, caused the entire congregation to act together and they gasped.
Vivie then calmly walked out of the Church.
Father Frank Butler was a newly ordained priest when he came to Kingston from Ireland shortly after the Great Exhibition in 1891 which, apparently, was Jamaica's way of telling the rest of the world what a lot of opportunities there were here.
Although Father Butler's very old now, he's still a big man and fat. He says he's not fat but "well nourished" and he's got white hair and a very weather beaten complexion from too much sun.
He's taken part in most of the important religious occasions to do with the Browneys – when we were baptised, our first Holy Communion, our confirmation and our confessions. He probably knows more about all of us than either Mammie or Sydney.
I was never very happy when he heard my confession on a Friday evening because he and Sydney are good friends and every Sunday night Father Butler comes to Mission House to see Sydney and the pair of them would sit for hours talking and smoking smelly cigars in the upstairs drawing room every Sunday night.
For a long time I was frightened that Father Butler would tell Sydney about the sins I'd confessed to and I'd get a whipping, but Mammie told me that a priest has to take an oath of silence and can never repeat anything to anyone else that he hears in the confessional box even if he was asked to by a judge in a court of law.
In the beginning Father Butler called on us for donations, either money or clothes which we had grown out of and he'd give to the St Vincent de Paul Society which helps the poor people of Kingston.
Priests are important to Jamaican families because if a family has no money they will always go to their priest for help and they will always receive a few pence for food and clothes. But things have to be really awful if you have to go to the priest and ask for money.
Anyway, this Sunday, Mammie didn't attend mass that particular morning and, Sydney was away up country on business, so missed the incident in Church, but Father Butler told Mammie later what had happened and said he was concerned about Vivie's "moral welfare". Having an affair with a married man and committing adultery are mortal sins and were forbidden by the Catholic Church and if Vivie continued on her wayward journey to damnation, he would have to have her excommunicated from the Church. Most Catholics I know would say that being put in front of a firing squad was better than being excommunicated from the Church.
Mammie tried to explain that Vivie was going to ask Carlton for a divorce because she wanted to marry Freddie.
"You know as well as I do Becky, the Catholic Church does not recognise divorce and will never allow Vivie to marry Freddie". But worse was to come……………………

OBITUARY. GEN. THOMAS C. DEVIN. Gen. Thomas C. Devin, Colonel command- in the Third Regiment of Cavalry, died at his resi- dence, No. 219 East Forty-ninth street yester- day morning. His death was due to a compli- cation of disorders caused by exposure and im- proper food during a long period of hard service in Arizona Territory, while holding the rank of Lieu- tenant-Colonel of the Eighth Cavalry. About eight months ago he was promoted to the command of the Third Regiment, and was granted five months' leave of absence. He left this City to return to his post at Fort Laramie on Nov. 28 last, and on Feb. 21 he was compelled to ask a "sick leave of absence." After returning home, he was confined to his bed and never recov- ered. Gen. Devin was born in this City on Dec. 10, 1822, and received his education in the public schools. He learned the painter'ss trade, and followed that avocation until the breaking out of the re- bellion in 1861. He had always had an admi- ration for the soldier's life, and held a commission as Lieutenant-Colonel of the First Cavalry, National Guard of this State, at that time. He went to the field at the head of a detachment of 300 men. On June 26, 1862, his regiment joined the Army of the Potomac, and performed picket duty along the Rappahannock and in the Shenandoah Valley for several months. In the Fall of 1862, when the cavalry corps was formed, Gen. Devin was placed in command of the Second Brigade, First Division. Shortly after the battle of Cedar Creek, in the Au- tumn of 1864, he was promoted to Brigadier-General. In the Spring of 1865 he was placed in command of the First Division, and at the Battle of Five Forks his division was foremost. His cavalry dismounted, charged upon the enemy, and captured their guns. For this brave service Gen. Sheridan presented a handsome silk flag to the division, upon which were arranged representations of five forks, with five prongs each, in the form of a star. During the war Gen. Devin participated in 72 battles. Soon after the close of the war, Gen. Devin, Gen. Merritt, and Gen. Custer were commissioned Lieutenant-Colonels in the regular Army, and the former was assigned to duty with the Eighth Cavalry, which was then stationed in Arizona Territory. Although there was considerable jealousy engendered in some quarters immediately after the war through the acts of the Government in promoting volunteer officers to the regular service, no such feeling was ever manifested toward Gen. Devin, from the fact that that it was gener- ally conceded that he had nobly earned his promo- tion. He leaves a wife and one child - a daughter. His funeral will take place to-morrow at St. Francis Xavier's Church, West Sixteenth-street at 10 A.M. The military order, Loyal Legion of the United States, of which he was a mem- will attend the funeral in aa body. At a meeting of this organization at Delmonico's on Wednesday night, a committee of three, comprising Col. H.M. Porter, Commander Ransom and Chap- lain Ferris, was appointed to visit Gen. Devin yes- terday; but it was not expected that his death was so near at hand. Chaplain Ferris called in the morn- ing just before the death of his old comrade. The other members of the committee visited the residence of the deceased officer last evening.

#MSBlog: How soon after stopping natalizumab (Tysabri) do you start fingolimod (Gilenya)?
Background: After discontinuation of natalizumab (Nz), MS disease activity often recurs.
"The level of rebound activity can be very severe!"
Objective: This study assessed the recurrence of clinical disease activity during the first year after switching from Nz to fingolimod (Fingo) in RRMSers.
Methods: The number of relapses and the annualized relapse rate (ARR) before, during and after Nz discontinuation were determined and compared between 26 MSers who switched to Fingo within 24 weeks, and 10 MSers who remained without disease modifying therapy (therapy free group = TFG).
Results: Median follow-up post-Nz discontinuation was 55.1 weeks. In a subgroup (n = 20), the occurrence of contrast-enhancing-lesions (Gd+) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was determined. Eleven MSers (42 %) in the Fingo group and seven MSers (70 %) in the TFG had one or more relapses after cessation of Nz during follow-up (p < 0.05). One of the 11 (9 %) MSers in the Fingo group and 6/9 (67 %) MSers in the TFG showed Gd+ lesions during follow-up (p < 0.05). MSers who switched to Fingo ≤ 12 weeks after Nz discontinuation (n = 9) showed a trend for a lower post-Nz ARR compared to MSers who started Fingo therapy >12 weeks after Nz was stopped (n = 17). Most relapses in the Fingo group occurred just before or within 8 weeks after starting Fingo.
Conclusion: These observation suggests that initiation of Fingo treatment after Nz discontinuation reduces the recurrence of disease activity compared to withdrawal without further immunomodulatory treatment. In the Fingo group the ARR tended to depend on the time interval between discontinuation of Nz and initiation of Fingo.
"These results support our recent change in practice to limit the washout period when switching from Nz to Fingo. The sooner you switch the greater the likelihood of preventing post-Nz rebound!"

The Primary Valuation of Ireland, known as Griffith's Valuation, was a survey of all Ireland undertaken to calculate the value of all land and buildings in the country. It began in 1848 and was completed in 1864.[1] It is a very important genealogical record due to the destruction of almost all the census returns for the 19th century. It lists owners and tenants of land and is estimated to cover about 70-80% of the adult population who owned land.[2] The land measurements used were the county, the Poor Law Union, civil parish and townland.[3] Baronies and civil parishes are usually not used as administrative areas in Ireland today.
The Buggy name appears 217 times in the survey. Counties Carlow (2), Dublin (1), Kilkenny (161), Laois (46), Tipperary (1) and Waterford (6) are represented. However, I estimate the actual number of people is less, probably closer to 150. This is due to the same person leasing different plots of lands, the same person being both an owner and a tenant and possible duplication errors in the database I transcribed from.[4]

iPhone Shows That Cheaper Phones Are Still Important
from the price-is-important dept
While the iPhone has done plenty to get people to rethink mobile interfaces, it seems clear that Apple may have initially misjudged how people would respond to premium-priced phones. Jobs had promised 10 million iPhones sold in the first 18 months, and has reached about 5 million in the first 12 months (nothing to sneeze at, obviously). However, to get up to that 10 million number, he had to drop the price to be competitive with other phones. It's a smart move (though, it's not clear if the $199 is subsidized or not), given the market conditions, but beyond the lessons that everyone will talk about concerning Steve Jobs' strategy in launching the iPhone, the most interesting of all may be how the initial pricing structure backfired -- but was changed so quickly.

Warrant Unit
The Sheriff's Office Warrant Unit consists of two sworn deputies assigned to manage and serve active criminal warrants. The deputies daily pursue and arrest individuals in our area who have warrants for their arrest.
Through a partnership with the United States Marshals Service, members of the Sheriff's Office Warrant Unit are also on the front line of fugitive recovery.
Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force
In October 2008, Sheriff Todd Entrekin signed a memorandum of understanding with the United States Marshals Service to assign two, full-time deputies to the Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force. The task force's Investigative Operations Division is dedicated to investigating violent crimes, and locating and apprehending wanted criminals.
The partnership between the Etowah County Sheriff's Office and the U.S. Marshals Service is beneficial to the citizens of Etowah County. It allows for the conducting of fugitive investigations by the Warrant Division deputies, who are deputized as Special Deputy U.S. Marshals. This gives them the authority to investigate and pursue fugitives outside of their normal jurisdictions.
The Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force currently serves:
- 67 counties in Alabama
- 82 counties in Mississippi
- 13 parishes in Eastern Louisiana
- Memphis, Tennessee.
The task force is comprised of 46 law enforcement agencies combining their resources on a full-time basis, as well as a number of agencies that participate on a part-time basis.
For more information, visit the Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force website.
A Message From The Sheriff
This site is maintained as a public service for the citizens of Etowah County. As Sheriff, it is my pleasure to serve you in this manner. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact us.

COLUMBIA — A man convicted of burglarizing a Beaufort County convenience store in 2004 enjoyed no relief from the S.C. Court of Appeals Wednesday.
That's despite a host of complaints from appellant Gerald Fripp. Among them were: that a juror was biased, that his two prior burglary convictions shouldn't have been considered, and that it was wrong to use two store employees' testimonies that he was the burglar seen on a surveillance tape.
At 4 a.m. on July 10, 2004, the Callawassie General Store, a convenience store in Beaufort County was burglarized. An alarm went off, police responded, and the burglar's image was captured on the store's surveillance tape. Store employees said Fripp, who was staying in a car on a property nearby, might be a suspect. Fripp contacted police, and an investigation unfolded.
A jury found Fripp, 46, guilty of second-degree burglary, and the trial court sentenced him to 15 years' incarceration, provided that after serving 10 years and paying costs and assessments, he could serve the rest as probation. Corrections department records say Fripp is housed in Lieber Correctional Institution in Ridgeville and began his sentence in 2008 and is eligible for parole next month.

School Choice in Michigan: A Primer for Freedom in Education
School choice--the right, freedom, and ability of parents to choose for their children the safest and best schools--has moved front and center in the debate over how to improve education in Michigan. This three-part primer equips parents, educators, and policy makers with the facts they need to understand and advance market-based reforms that will help all Michigan schools perform at higher levels of quality and efficiency.
The primer examines the history of government-funded and operated schooling, explains why nonmarket-oriented school reform efforts ultimately fail, and describes various school choice proposals including charter schools, inter-district choice, vouchers, tax credits, and universal tuition tax credits. Helpful appendices explain ways for grass-roots citizens to help advance school choice.

Dorset whale to surface again…
Our new Natural Dorset gallery will give visitors the opportunity to discover over 200 million years of Dorset's natural history and will allow our Natural History collection to go back on display after a period of almost 20 years in storage. This collection has not been researched for some time, and we are busy looking into many of the objects and specimens and uncovering their stories. One such item is the skull and cervical vertebrate of a bottle-nosed whale which was given to the Museum in 1894.
A report read to the Purbeck Society on 9 November 1855 gives a detailed account of what happened to the whale. It was spotted on 29 October 1855 in Swanage Bay and soon after became entangled in mullet nets. It was consequently shot by the local coast guard. The whale became stranded in the shallow water and boats were launched to tow the carcass on to the beach. The body was described as looking like 'a large dolphin'. Sadly the whale was pregnant at the time of its death. The carcass was sold to a Mr. Gillingham, who used the body to extract oil, a lucrative commodity. It was an accepted practice in Britain at this time to hunt whales for their oil, with whale hunting providing jobs and income to coastal communities. At the same time, the skeletons were also deemed to of be of interest in furthering knowledge of the natural world. The report notes that the head and vertebrate were to be deposited at Corfe Museum; we are not sure if they ever were, or how they eventually ended up at Dorset County Museum.
Until 1997, the whale skeleton was on permanent display in the former Natural History gallery of the museum. In 1997 this gallery became the Writer's Gallery, and the Natural History items were relocated elsewhere in the museum or put into storage. The whale skeleton was one of those many items that were put into storage, where it has remained ever since.
Today, whales are frequent visitors to the sea around the Dorset coastline. There are dedicated whale watching groups along this stretch of the English coastline and it has been known for whales to wash up on the Dorset shoreline in recent years, an unexplained natural occurrence. At a time of renewed interest in the natural world and increased concern for the environment, it is fitting that we will once again be able to display the Swanage whale.
