BEIJING (Reuters) - The wife of jailed Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo has written an open letter to Chinese President Xi Jinping, protesting against her house arrest and her brother's jailing, which activists have called official retribution on the family.
Liu Xia's hand-written letter was posted in photos to Twitter by a lawyer for the family on Friday, days after a Chinese court jailed her brother, Liu Hui, for 11 years on fraud charges.
"Under today's rule of law, what we should see from state authority is justice and not ruthless suppression based on violence," Liu wrote to Xi, denouncing the sentence as unjust.
"Based on my experience, the 'China Dream' you advocate has become the China nightmare," Liu said, referencing a political slogan employed by Xi, who took over as president in March and as head of the ruling Communist Party last year.
Supporters of Liu Hui say his case was trumped up, aimed at thwarting the increasing attention by the rights community on the plight of Liu Xia, who has been effectively detained in her home since her husband Liu Xiaobo won the Nobel Prize in 2010.
"No one has told me the reason for this house arrest ... Possibly in this country being the wife of Liu Xiaobo is a crime," she said.
Shang Baojun, who represents Liu Hui and posted the letter, confirmed its authenticity, which was signed and dated by Liu Xia on Wednesday.
Liu Xiaobo, a veteran dissident involved in the 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy protests crushed by the Chinese army, was jailed for 11 years in 2009 on subversion charges for organizing a petition urging the overthrow of one-party rule.
His wife is rarely allowed out and is almost never allowed to receive visitors. She has not been convicted of any crime.
Last week, Xi met U.S. President Barack Obama in California, eager to promote his desire for a "new model of major country relationship", in which China would be viewed as an equal global player.
Differences over human rights have added to strained ties between Beijing and Washington in recent months.
In a small concession by Beijing ahead of the summit, China granted passports to the mother and eldest brother of Chen Guangcheng, which they hope to use to visit the blind Chinese activist who is living in the United States after fleeing to the U.S. embassy in Beijing last year.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said on Friday she knew nothing about Liu Xia's letter.
"You know that China is a country with rule of law and China's judicial authorities deal with cases in accordance with the law," she said.

FDA bolsters black box on antidepressants to warn of suicidality in young adults
The FDA asked antidepressant makers to update the black box warnings on their products to caution against increased risks of suicidality in young adults starting on the meds. The proposed labeling warns of increased risk of suicidality for users age 18-24 in the first two months of treatment, but says that scientific data do not show increased risk in adults over than 24 and that those 65 and older have a decreased risk of suicidality. The language also emphasizes that depression and other serious psychiatric disorders treated by the drugs are themselves the biggest danger to patients. Manufacturers have 30 days to submit revised product labels and medication guides to FDA for review. In 2005, FDA asked manufacturers to add a black box warning of a suicidality risk in children and adolescents on the drugs and initiated a review of 295 individual antidepressant trials involving 77,000 adult patients with major depressive disorder or other psychiatric disorders. Today's move stems from the findings of that review.

EU to Deliver Report on Anticompetitive Practices in Cross-Border E-Commerce
March 14, 2016
Preliminary results of an EU investigation into the barriers facing companies that want to engage in cross-border e-commerce, launched nearly a year ago , will be released Friday and could result in action against some businesses for anticompetitive practices, according to Margrethe Vestager, European Competition Commissioner. The investigation focused on cross-border online trade in the EU, specifically examining electronics, clothing and digital content, for practices such as price fixing or blocking sales to consumers in certain countries.
While merchant groups defend geo-blocking as a valuable tool to curtail fraud, other European groups, including the European Parliament , have criticized the practice as being harmful to consumers. While it is unclear if businesses that currently engage in the practice will face sanctions, Vestager told media members at a conference in Germany on Thursday that, subsequent to the analysis in the forthcoming report, "maybe we will look into opening cases."

Aristotle believed that the universe consisted of huge hollow spheres, one inside the other, each carrying its share of stars or planets on its outer surface. This view dominated Western thought until Copernicus shattered the bubbles in the 16th century by moving the sun, rather than the Earth, to the center of things.
But Aristotle and his followers, it turns out, were very nearly right.
A recent discovery by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass., shows that, after all, the stars do ride on the surfaces of huge, hollow ``spheres`` spread throughout space like a great flurry of soap bubbles blown from a cosmic bubble-pipe.
Why it should be so, no one knows and few dare to speculate. ``It throws into a cocked hat a lot of theories about the universe`` said James Cornell, a spokesman for the center. But the picture is clear, and the shapes are unmistakable.
The picture comes from a new mapping of the locations of galaxies -- the huge, whirlpool-shaped or oval swarms of stars, each containing perhaps a billion suns, that contain all the visible matter in the universe. The mapping was conducted over the past year by Center for Astrophysics astronomers John Huchra and Margaret Geller and graduate student Valerie de Lapparent.
More than a million galaxies have been identified in the sky, but few have been analyzed in a way that allows their distances from us to be estimated.
What was needed, to figure out the arrangement of matter in the universe and to answer fundamental questions about creation, was a three-dimensional map -- a map of galaxies that shows not only their position in the sky but also their distance from Earth.
There`s no direct way to measure the distance of a galaxy, but there is a fairly simple indirect method that most astronomers believe to be very accurate: Measure its redshift.

"Best of B&B experiences."- Clemens (AT)
"Best B&B we have stayed at!"- John (NZ)
Our home situated at 114 Redvale Rd, in the award winning GALEO Estate is a contemporary country home, which blends in aesthetically with the environment. In building our home we thought about health, well-being and impact on the environment so incorporated many eco features. The views from our home are simply stunning, taking in the Western Ranges, Tasman Bay out to D'Urville Island and at night the twinkling lights of Nelson.
Being between the thriving town of Richmond and the beautiful coastal village of Mapua, we are surrounded by wineries, craft breweries, artists and food producers and are close to the popular coastal section of the Tasman Great Taste Trail and the beautiful Moturoa/Rabbit Island Beach and Recreation area. We are also centrally located between Nelson and Motueka – approximately 20 mins to each.
Our rural sub-division is known for its bird life and here you will see Pukeko, quail, ducks, plover, swallows, kingfisher, low flying hawks and in increasing numbers our wonderful native birds such as the fantail and tui.
There are a number of cafes and restaurants within a short distance including the wonderful Playhouse Café and Theatre. We also offer an optional tasting platter on the night of arrival.
We are happy to share with you our love of New Zealand and especially the south island and help you make plans for all the wonderful things to do and see in this area; we can also assist with bookings.
Built in 2012 our home is a large, one level dwelling with two purpose built B&B rooms on the eastern side. The house incorporates many eco features, which are:
Guests have their own parking area and entrance allowing for autonomy when needed. There are a number of seating areas outside for relaxing and taking in the stunning views. Our spa is great to sit in at night where you can gaze at the twinkling night sky or the lights of Nelson.
Our home is full of beautiful art work in many mediums, a lot of which has been bought in the 'top of the south'. We have a number of beautiful books on New Zealand, which are lovely to sit and relax with and we have a number of board games to have fun with.
Our garden is a large developing one. At the front of the house there is a beautiful border garden broken by an outdoor seating and fire area. In different areas around the house there are natives, fruit trees, raised vegetable and herb gardens and a camellia hedge. The gully part of the section contains mostly native shrubs, trees and grasses.
There are two luxurious rooms, the Red Room and Green Room, both with King beds. The bed in the Red Room is adjustable for firmness on each side.
Each room has:
*One load of washing included during stay.
From $200 per night.
Children by prior arrangement only, thank you.

Well, I was logically trying to display how worthless it would be to purchase gil to fund a craft. Aside from a cheating stand point, it's pretty much the worst move you could make.
If anyone really does want to give away RL money, just donate to charity and save yourself some time. At least the money would go to a good cause. :P

If you are a Forever Alone dude, then February 14th would most probably pass by you without anything significant
happening. I mean, you need not worry about what kind of gift to purchase for your other half, and neither do you need to stress yourself out with the different kinds of bookings that you need to make for shows, dinner, and perhaps even a hotel room to romance your other half all the way through to the morning. Hey, if you're cold at night, just turn up the heat or use a hot water bottle, no?
As for the rest of the world who are attached or married, Valentine's Day could be very stressful, as you have run out of gift ideas after celebrating your 50th anniversary in 2012. Hey, maybe it is time to ditch the traditional flowers and chocolates (although those tend to be classics), and settle for the Nokia Lumia 822. This time around, the Lumia 822 from Verizon will come in a flashy red color, instead of its boring white, black, and grey shades. It is now available for free from Verizon with a two-year contract, now how about that for a steal?

(Slain teen Trayvon Martin)

If you follow Fox News correspondent Geraldo Rivera's logic, a gun didn't kill Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, a hoodie did. The outspoken Rivera raised lots of eyebrows--and drew fire from Roots drummer ?uestlove--after Friday morning's "Fox & Friends" broadcast when he suggested that the unarmed 17-year-old victim Martin may have been as much to blame as uncharged gunman George Zimmerman. Why?
Young Jeezy Calls For Community Effort In Trayvon Martin Case
"I am urging the parents of black and Latino youngsters particularly to not let their children go out wearing hoodies. I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin's death as George Zimmerman was," said Rivera, who went on to add that he believes "overzealous" Zimmerman should be investigated to the fullest extent of the law and prosecuted if he is found criminally liable.
But, Rivera said, Martin's hoodie was, in his mind, part of "an outfit that allowed someone to respond in this irrational, overzealous way."
Rivera's comments came two days after hundreds of New Yorkers took to the streets on Wednesday for the "Million Hoodie March," during which they called for justice for Martin. The case has also drawn support from many in the hip-hop community, including Young Jeezy, Big Boi, Wyclef Jean and the always-outspoken ?uestlove of the Roots.
Questo went in on Rivera on Twitter, asking on Friday morning, "@GeraldoRivera should @kimkardashian stop creating perfume to avoid flour bombs?," referring to the reality star's flour attack from the day before at an event celebrating her latest fragrance.
He also had choice words for Rivera's attempt to make the issue personal by bringing his "dark skinned" son, Cruz Rivera, into the mix. "When you, when you see a kid walking … particularly a dark skinned kid like my son Cruz, who I constantly yelled at when he was going out wearing a damn hoodie or those pants around his ankles," Rivera said. "Take that hood off, people look at you and they -- what do they think? What's the instant identification, what's the instant association?" When even the show's host sensed that Rivera had strayed into a weird territory, the mustachioed TV veteran had a simple answer.
"It's those crime scene surveillance tapes," he explained. "Every time you see someone sticking up a 7-11, the kid is wearing a hoodie. Every time you see a mugging on a surveillance camera or they get the old lady in the alcove, it's a kid wearing a hoodie. You have to recognize that this whole stylizing yourself as a gangsta, you're gonna be a gangsta wannabe? Well, people are going to perceive you as a menace. That's what happens … You can not rehabilitate the hoodie."
Quest wasn't buying it, later tweeting, "@GeraldoRivera no quite the opposite. This was a case of racial profiling. Drill into kids heads not to racially profile … Sorry @GeraldoRivera, what I gotta stroll around rocking a tux 24 7 so I can put others who are ignorant at ease? What about the OTHER side."
When Politico later asked Rivera if he wished to retract his statement, he replied, "absolutely not," pointing them to an earlier column he published before the appearance on Latino Fox News that made a similar argument.

Dear Amy: My husband and I are in our 70s. Between us, we have 11 siblings who are in their 80s.
My husband feels we should attend the funerals that probably will be coming up soon (we live on the West Coast and they live in the East).
Dear Amy: My husband and I are in our 70s. Between us, we have 11 siblings who are in their 80s.
My husband feels we should attend the funerals that probably will be coming up soon (we live on the West Coast and they live in the East).
The problem is that we do not have the money to do this, even with bereavement fares.
Is there a way to handle this without seeming callous?
I also need to have my husband understand that it's not doable in terms of our budget.
-- Margaret, Seattle
Dear Margaret: I'd like to suggest an alternative to your fretting about attending multiple funerals that haven't happened yet.
If you can possibly manage it and if your health is stable, I'd suggest making a grand swing through the country this summer to visit as many siblings as possible while you're all still here.
Make the very most of your visit and enjoy the company of your family members while you can.
Air fares have gone down recently, and you could have someone work with you using budget travel Web sites to plan the most economical way to make your tour.
Tell yourselves that you won't fret about future travels until the sad need arises.
Dear Amy: Letters in your column about how painful Mother's Day can be have struck a chord with me, not for Mother's Day but for Father's Day.
My youngest son's father is a deadbeat dad who never sees him.
My oldest two sons' father committed suicide two years ago, when they were teens.
He was a very involved father. You can imagine the grief we feel.
Our first Father's Day without him was three months after he died.
I was grocery-shopping with my oldest son and the bagger very innocently asked him what his plans were for Father's Day.
We were shocked into silence, and I will never forget the twisted, terrible look of grief on my son's face.
We said nothing, of course. This is why I never wish anyone a happy Mother's Day or Father's Day unless I know their situation.
You never know the tragedies other people are dealing with, though I try not to get upset with people who innocently extend salutations.
I wish Father's Day was never invented, but who am I to disregard the good fathers who haven't abandoned their families? My own father is one of them!
-- Grief Every Father's Day
Dear Grief: This issue has caused a lot of traffic in my in-box; I can only hope that people pondering these special honor days realize, as you do, that you simply never know what issues people are dealing with.
I also hope that people who are grieving and sad realize that these remarks and greetings are innocent in nature.
I can only hope that you and your sons will handle your challenging feelings on this day openly and with grace. They have had a raw deal -- but they have you, and in that regard they're lucky.
Dear Amy: I am a 13-year-old girl who is an athletic swimmer. My mother loves my swimming, but for pool parties and visits to the water park she will not let me wear a bikini.
A friend of mine whose mother is very conservative will let her daughter wear a string bikini for swimming.
My mother will let me wear an athletic two-piece, which means it will be very form-fitting and generally very ugly.
How can I persuade her to let me wear a decent bikini?
-- Tired of Tank Suits
Dear Tired: Your mother's job is to help you choose appropriate clothing according to her sense of what is acceptable. She may think there is no such thing as a "decent bikini."
You can try to negotiate your way into a different suit, perhaps by pointing out that athletic two-pieces can be more revealing than bikinis because they're like a second skin. Otherwise, ask her to agree to what age you should be to wear a bikini, and look forward to that summer.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- The War Memorial almost landed one of the biggest touring acts in the country this summer -- Phish -- for its opening night and five days of rehearsal.
The Oncenter operators scrambled to clear the building by moving the graduations of two big local high schools, who historically used the War Memorial, to other locations.
But at the eleventh hour, the deal fell through, leaving the War Memorial empty that weekend.
According to three sources asked to work on the show, who wish to remain unidentified, there was a tentative deal in place to bring Phish to Syracuse for six days -- five days of rehearsal from June 26-30 followed by a concert July 1.
The deal was so far along that the Oncenter cleared the War Memorial calendar for the weekend. That meant canceling plans to host the graduations of Cicero-North Syracuse and Henninger high schools.
Kelly Carr, general manager of the Oncenter, would not confirm the specifics of the event that bumped the graduations, other than to say the Oncenter had a verbal contract for six days with a band. That deal was ultimately nixed by the "client's" management, he said.
"We had an event that was scheduled to come in at that time," Carr said. "It was the beginning of a tour and a rehearsal before a concert. We thought we had a deal in place. We had a verbal agreement with the client and then unfortunately, like so many tours do, they backed out."
Matt Beach, co-owner of Ale 'n' Angus Pub next to the War Memorial, is certain he knows who the band was.
"I can tell you for a fact that it was Phish. 100 percent," Beach said. "The whole Phish thing was all hush-hush, but things get leaked out. I knew about it a long time ago, maybe January."
Phish's tour kicks off Tuesday, July 1 in Mansfield, Mass. The Syracuse concert would have been July 1 with five days of rehearsal leading up to it. Representatives for Phish did not return messages left Friday.
A concert, Carr said, would have brought in significantly more revenue than the graduations.
"The county hired us to lower the deficit on the building," Carr said. "Unfortunately, graduations don't make as much as concerts."
Phish's tours attract a highly dedicated fan base that regularly fills much larger Upstate venues like CMAC and SPAC. Having the group in town for a week would have attracted national attention and hordes of fans to Syracuse.
The decision was made in December, then, to pave a path for the concert.
Both Henninger and Cicero-North Syracuse had graduation ceremonies scheduled for the War Memorial the weekend of June 27-28. Both have been holding their graduations at the War Memorial for at least eight years.
"We actually weren't told what was happening," said Laurie Cook, the school information officer at C-NS. "We were just told all events would be canceled that weekend and they couldn't host graduation there."
Local businesses, too, were inconvenienced.
For the last eight years, Ale 'n' Angus has hosted a get-together for C-NS faculty following the Friday night graduation ceremony.
"They get out at 8 p.m. and we get 70-75-plus faculty over here," Beach said. "We do food and a cash bar. They'll be here 'til maybe one in the morning. Here's 75 people who it's their final day of work before three months' vacation. It was good business."
The restaurant hosted a similar event for Henninger Saturday afternoon ceremony, which usually attracted 40-50 people. Beach said he was initially excited when he heard the Oncenter was bringing in a concert, though he'd come to rely on the steady business from graduations.
"Every time Phish plays here they sell out in 12 minutes and it's crazy," Beach said. "The people who attend these shows have a lot of money to spend. These are people who save their money for tours like you or I save money for a vacation. I said, 'If we can't have graduations, then this is still great.'"
But despite the verbal agreement, the band's agent backed out of the Syracuse show. Phish's tour opens July 1 at Mansfield's Xfinity Center and they will play at CMAC in Canandaigua July 15.
Now, the War Memorial will be empty on a weekend when it has traditionally hosted two major graduations. Ale 'n' Angus will likely see less foot traffic. There is a silver lining, however: The Oncenter was able to fill one of the dates, Sunday, June 29, with the American Idol Live tour.
Beach may be unhappy about the lost business, but, as a business owner himself, he understands the risk the Oncenter took.
"The grass is always greener," he said. "They had a sure thing and they tried to bring in something even better. It sounded like a great thing at the time, but it just backfired."

I've been glued to CNBC for the past two nights, trying to make sense of that unexplained global sell-off in the world equity markets that started in China and ended with a 416-point plunge in the Dow. Anyway, while watching Jim Cramer on "Mad Money" and the traders on "Fast Money," an advertisement from CNBC about a new series on business innovation caught my eye. Apparently, Maria Bartiromo is hosting a five-part series called The Business of Innovation starting on March 4:
The Business of innovation is a series of 5 one-hour programmes produced by CNBC, the worldwide leader in business news, which explores in-depth the most important topic in the business world today - Innovation. Each program will explore a different aspect of Innovation using CNBC's global newsgathering capabilities, well-known current and former CEO's and innovation experts to dissect the topic and provide guidenace for viewers seeking to innovate in their own organizations. The series is hosted by award-winning journalist Maria Bartiromo, who calls the programmes "...ground breaking in scope".
The series on business innovation sponsored by IBM looks promising. After kicking off with "Innovators and Iconoclasts," the series continues with "Revolution & Evolution," "New Tricks and Old Dogs," "People and Technology," and "Loners and Teammates."

Singing Oscar Children Almost Drove Andy Cohen to Suicide
"It was the worst. I was looking for a knife to stick in my eyes, it was so terrible."
Why did the Oscars hire P.S. 22 — a children's choir known primarily for their interpretations of modern-day radio hits like "Lisztomania" — and make their shtick a moot point by asking them to sing the 72-year-old standard "Over the Rainbow"? To annoy Bravo's Andy Cohen, apparently. "There was a thing called Up With People in the '70s or '80s. Here's what: Oscar night is not about Up With People," the Bravo fixture complained today on Morning Joe. "Like, I don't need to see that. It was just bad. It was just awful. It was horrible. A public school chorus singing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow.' I, literally, if I wasn't gonna to go out to some parties, I would have slit 'em right then. It was the worst. I was looking for a knife to stick in my eyes, it was so terrible ... The end of the Oscars is — we don't want to see this. You just ruined everything." Andy Cohen, so angry right now!

Chernarus is a 225 km2 open world, devastated by an unknown infection that has wiped out most of its population, turning some of them into mindless zombies. That is where DayZ takes place. It's a fictional creation based on areas of the Czech Republic, where ArmA developer Bohemia Interactive is located.
The major features of Chernarus are three major cities: Chernogorsk, Elektrozavodsk, and Berezino; towns such as Stary Sobor and Zelenogorsk; airfields in the south, northwest, and northeast; great expanses of highly realistic forest; simply architectured and yet fabulous castles; masterfully created and voiced hordes of bloodthirsty zombies, and so much more.
A Map can be obtained as loot in-game, and an interactive version with detailed location information is available here on DayZDB as well. This map is referred to in the following paragraphs.
Navigation of Chernarus can be time-consuming due to the massive size of the map. While running can take anywhere from 1-3 hours to cross the entire map, a vehicle can make this experience much more feasible. Driving off-road with a vehicle is sometimes required to reach certain locations or to cross stretches where roads are not present, however some form of road is usually available.
After obtaining a vehicle, there are different types of road which can be travelled on at different speeds and also deteriorate the wheels at different rates. The largest mainstream (orange) road in Chernarus stretches along the entire Southern coast and the majority of the Eastern coast. Travelling on this road will allow your vehicle to travel at full speed. You can also travel full speed on thinner roads (yellow) which still have the markings in the middle of the road.
Roads which are white are the most common in DayZ, and travelling at full speed is sometimes feasible depending on the location but it will not hinder your speed to a major degree. Travelling at full speed on an ATV or other fragile vehicle is not advised due to the abundance of sharp turns and hills which could prove a potential risk to the vehicle. Dirt tracks, shown as thin black lines and also dotted lines, will hinder your vehicle's speed notably (usually around half) but your speed will not be that of the off-road speed.
Viva la Chernarus
I'm so glad they are still using this map. I know it by landmarks like radio-stations, bases, certain towns and even valleys and castles. But it's not boring to repeatedly explore them in Standalone. Because of new buildings, different looking zombies and characters etc, the map is now feeling restored or renewed. I can't get enough of Chernarus, and the game is simply beautiful- even in the early stages.

Re: Jeremy Guthrie to Rockies
More of the same.
Time to let Angelos out of his lease and let him move the team.
Starting over is a far better option than 15 more years of this nonsense.
Re: Jeremy Guthrie to Rockies
Hammel and Lindstrom.
that's it Dan ? really ?

Barry Weiss hasn't had a lot of luck lately on "Storage Wars" (Tue., 10PM on A&E) but in the storage-bidding business, a new streak of luck is just behind a locked door.
Weiss found some horse racing-themed artwork (and a gnarly mattress) in a locker he bought for $320 in Inglewood, California, and hoping it might be valuable, he headed to Hollywood Park racetrack to have it appraised.
As it turned out, a devastating fire in 1949 made the artwork very rare. The appraiser pegged the art's estimated value at $5,000, which gave gave Barry a much-needed morale boost and a tidy profit.

You know the moment you said without thinking much 'sure let's do it' you really do not mean it. Unfortunately you said it, now you have to stick with your own words. When my partner suggested a 'whale watching trip' these are the words I used with an excitement. I am weak to refuse anything goes under the category of 'I have never done that, I got to try'.
We were headed to Newport, to see whales, and I had no idea what I was going to experience. Newport is located on the central Oregon coast, 114 miles away from Portland. I am a land person. Even though I spent 30 years by the sea, my relationship with water pretty much was 'enjoying looking at it' style. I prefer solid ground. I had a lot of warm layers and my camera, I was ready to go. When you are not in the land forget about tripod, it is useless against the wind on a rocking boat. Actually I remember many times trying to take wild windy ocean photos with a tripod, then lost the battle of holding the tripod still. Next thing I was just focusing on holding myself firmly while taking photos.
What do I know about whales? Not much. Have I ever watch whales on a discovery channel even? I did not think so. I know they are big. They come in different shapes and sizes I guess. They migrate between places time to time. I also learned that marine mammalogists estimate about 18,000 whales pass by Oregon coast between mid-December and mid-January, as they head south from the Arctic to the Baja lagoons of Mexico.
Many times when we travelled Oregon Coast and we stopped at a park ( just central coast has 38 parks ) to take picture of Pacific ocean, Rob claimed he saw a whale. How do you spot a whale in the middle of an ocean? I have never seen one. I was little suspicious of his claims. Next thing I bought was a binocular. When I was on the beach I took photos of sea animals, sea lions, crabs, birds such as seagulls, pelicans, sandpipers, sanderlings and more. Even looking at Pacific with a binocular, whales did not appear to pass in front of me. How come I do not see them? They have to be out there somewhere. I guess I have to do whale watching in order to see own my eyes.
We arrived Newport. It was sunny day with crystal clear blue sky. The white boat in the harbor was shimmering under bright sun. I thought the boat was quite large. What a perfect day it was for whale watching. I immediately went to the upper deck. If I was going to see a whale, I better be up and I had to have a clear view of it. Everyone include me had a camera in their hands, with smile on faces, listening to captan's information about how we would tell if we saw a whale. They use clock navigation. Direction is directed like the numbers of a clock. 12 o'clock is straight in front of the boat. I prepared my zoom lens, adjusted my fast shutter speed. I zipped up my raincoat, prepare myself for the wind. When you are on deep dark blue water no matter how sunny it is, it will be chilly. While my eyes fixed on the ocean, captain came to the deck and said the deck was overcrowded! It was only 8 people were allowed on upper deck. Then we started to move. At first it was a little windy. No whales, but I saw many sea lions chasing the boat. I took many photos of the Yaquina Bay Bridge while we were passing underneath. This 74 years old bridge was glittering under the morning sun. It was designed by Conde Balcom McCullough. It is an architectural beauty that the main span is flanked by identical 350 ft (107 m) steel arches.
I heard the whales would breath every ten to twenty seconds about five or six times, then dive for 3-5 minutes before coming up to start the breathing cycle again. They say Gray Whales are the easiest to spot. I gazed at the ocean watch for a puff of white. Why have I not seen any spy hopping, breaching, or any various forms of splashing with their flukes?
I realized the boat started to rock like crazy as soon as we passed by the breakwater. We crossed the bar, the end of the bay. Suddenly I was the only one on the upper deck. I became one with the rails. Soon my knuckles turned white. Can I change my idea about the boat's size? The boat was shrinking. Someone yelled 9 o'clock! There on my left I saw a faded fluke finally. I zoomed towards that area. Blue splashes, more splashes, then the spectacular whale! My heart was pounding with joy. Yes, the whales were out there. Not only one, there were four of them. I was frantically using my fast shutter speed. Hoping one would come out clearly. Then I remembered to look at my LCD screen, seeing a lot of blurry waves. The boat was shaking so hard that, it was hard to stay steady. I felt uneasy to be on a size of a matchstick boat on the ocean. I took a deep breath. Then I decided to go downstairs. I carefully removed my fingers from cold iron hand rail. I bet hand rail will miss my warm fingers for a long time. They were best buddies for a while.
I managed to get a few good photos of a gray whale's tail. I was all happy. Whales disappeared over the horizon. I wanted to chat with the captain. Was that unusual to see four whales in one trip? He confirmed that was the first time in his life. I wanted to take panoramic photos of Newport fisherman town. I put my wide angle lens, looked at houses scatted around tall green trees. Then I felt a sharp pain on thumb of my right hand. A small thirsty bee stung me. In pain I tried to get rid of it, but that was the hand was holding camera. I do not know how but I managed the kill the bee with my left hand. From the pain I even screamed. I mean I went countless hiking trips. Not even once I got stung. Now in the ocean, I got stung by a bee? How fair is that? Within minutes my hand swell like red balloon. Captain thought I was the lucky one in this trip and gave me a band aid. Are you kidding me? What kind of luck is that I will remember the bee the rest of my life, the tiny earthy creature instead of gorgeous large whales? Needless to say I am allergic to bee sting.

LONDON (AP) — A main subway line to London's Olympic Park was briefly suspended Friday morning on the busiest day of the games so far. But officials said the transit system was coping despite some upheavals.
Some 200,000 people were expected at Olympic Park on the first day of track and field competition.
Transport for London said service on the Central Line, which links central London with the Olympic Park, had been briefly suspended because of a power failure that affected its signals. Officials said full service was resumed by 9 a.m. after a partial suspension that lasted more than an hour.
Olympic fans quickly switched to other lines, causing further overcrowding. At St. Pancras station, where fast Javelin trains run to the Olympic site, lines stretched across the concourse, out the door and down the street Friday morning.
"From what I understand the queues were about an hour for the Javelin — but everybody's got in," organizing committee spokeswoman Jackie Brock-Doyle said.
Officials have warned Londoners for weeks that the games would bring pressure and crowding on public transport, but so far the system has largely coped. Transport for London says passenger numbers are up 10 percent on usual levels for this time of year.
Huge crowds thronged the park Friday, the first day of events inside the 80,000-seat Olympic Stadium, which had so far only been used for the gala opening ceremony.
Officials are also restricting access to the Westfield Stratford shopping mall next to the Olympic Park on Friday and Saturday because of the large crowds. Only ticket holders or accredited workers will be allowed into the mall — Europe's largest — during the day.
Games officials say they expect the mall to open as normal after Saturday, expected to be the peak day for Olympic visitor numbers.

UAW Is Challenging The Volkswagen Election Results
They claim Gov. Bill Haslam, Sen. Bob Corker, and others engaged in a "coordinated and widely publicized coercive campaign" against the union.
WASHINGTON —The United Auto Workers filed an objection with the National Labor Relations Board Friday claiming the election it lost last week at a Chattanooga, Tenn., Volkswagen plant was interfered with by outside groups and lawmakers.
The union says Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, Sen. Bob Corker, Grover Norquist, and others engaged in a "coordinated and widely publicized coercive campaign" to encourage votes against joining the union. The final tally was 712 votes against and 626 votes in favor.
If successful, the NLRB could set aside the election results and order a new one.
"It's an outrage that politically motivated third parties threatened the economic future of this facility and the opportunity for workers to create a successful operating model that that would grow jobs in Tennessee," said UAW President Bob King. "It is extraordinary interference in the private decision of workers to have a U.S. senator, a governor and leaders of the state legislature threaten the company with the denial of economic incentives and workers with a loss of product. We're committed to standing with the Volkswagen workers to ensure that their right to have a fair vote without coercion and interference is protected."
In the days leading up to the election, state legislators threatened that if workers voted to join the union, the plant might lose out on important state incentives.
In addition to that, Corker claimed that if workers voted against the union, VW would manufacture their new SUV at the Chattanooga plant — a claim he doubled down on in a statement released today. VW is also considering manufacturing the new product at a plant in Mexico.
VW has said the vote will not affect their decision.
"The workers at Chattanooga's Volkswagen plant spoke very clearly last week, so we are disappointed the UAW is ignoring their decision and has filed this objection. Unfortunately, I have to assume that today's action may slow down Volkswagen's final discussions on the new SUV line," Corker said in a statement. "This complaint affirms the point many of us have been making: that the UAW is only interested in its own survival and not the interests of the great employees at Chattanooga's Volkswagen facility nor the company for which they work."
Former NLRB Chairman William Gould said he thinks at first glance the UAW has a chance of winning appeal, but it will depend heavily on when VW actually responded to Corker's claims about votes affecting their decision to manufacture the SUV.
"It's going to depend upon both the timing of Volkswagen's repudiation and the extensiveness of the threats by state legislatures," Gould said.

Today the Anti-Defamation League and the American Jewish Committee issued a joint "pledge" calling on Jewish and Israel groups not to criticize President Obama's record on Israel (it can be viewed here: www.adl.org/unitypledge). The Emergency Committee for Israel will not sign the pledge. ECI's chairman, William Kristol, issued the following statement:
"Here's the Emergency Committee for Israel's answer to Directors Abe Foxman and David Harris: You must be kidding.
"Indeed, this attempt to silence those of us who have 'questioned the current administration's foreign policy approach vis-a-vis Israel' will re-energize us. Nor, incidentally, should those who support the administration's approach to Israel be bashful about making their case. Directors Harris and Foxman need a refresher course on the virtues of free speech and robust debate in a democracy. Their effort to stifle discussion and debate is unworthy of the best traditions of America, and of Israel."
For more information please contact ECI executive director Noah Pollak: firstname.lastname@example.com

sounds in my house at this very moment:
toys being dumped out onto the living room floor
nickelodeon playing quietly on the television
faith cutting up dried seaweed for them to have as a a snack. they seriously eat them like potato chips
the ceiling fan whirring above my head. it's actually not horrible hot today and i've had the window units off for most of it
things have been..interesting. and challenging.
at this very moment cory is applying for even more jobs. catching a break would be pretty sweet here.
at this moment, when i have 3 months left to fulfill groupon clients, i have mixed feelings about it all. would i do it again? fuck no. do i regret doing it? no, i don't think so.
i've been in a slump in mom land. and it's because most of my days are spent staring at a monitor editing pictures. i've gotten a rhythm down with groupon clients & lightroom that's made the process so much quicker, but it's still sucking my time into a black hole. which leaves my poor children to make their own fun. today was spent with dance parties and swimming, despite the water being titanic like thanks to the massive amount of rain last night.
i find myself wondering lately how people manage to live such glamorous lives. it's almost like much of instagram is "look how awesome i am!" and that's definitely me being bitter and judgmental. I haven't even posted in a few days. what am i gonna post? this is me...sitting on the toilet & peeing for the twentieth time today because my children destroyed my bladder. this is me...drinking yet another diet coke when my brain tells me i should be drinking water. this is me...staring in the mirror, squeezing my belly fat yet again wishing i had christina hendrick's body. this is me...sitting on my ass editing pictures that will never get purchased or seen again. seriously, you guys. i'm considering just giving the last groupon clients all their files so i don't have to order their prints any more or deal with it.
sometimes i consider giving up coffee and trading it for tea. then i remember i would be dead without it.
i noticed a penny stuck on the kitchen floor yesterday. i should mop at some point.
you know how the pioneer woman posts pictures of the trash she sweeps off her floors & claims she's "keepin' it real"? i call bullshit. she should see what i sweep off my floors.
i've come to the realization that i have two sons & a husband. i will never again have a bathroom that doesn't smell like piss 24/7.
i haven't folded laundry in weeks. it's liberating..until i need to find clean clothes. then it's horrible.
is it wrong to be jealous of my 7 year old daughter's skin tone & trim physique?
here's a secret that won't be a secret any more: i'm closer to 300 pounds than 200 now. barely, but i am. this is heartbreaking, depressing, and so discouraging. it also means that every time i see my mother now she has to say something about my weight. my tongue starts bleeding from the excessive biting i end up doing. this was the woman who told me i was fat then fed me more food. and fed me an exclusive diet of take out food and frozen pizzas.
but then i realize that i'm a 31 year old woman dammit. i need to take responsibility for my own bad habits & quit blaming other people. but it's just so much easier to point fingers. it's why we all do it.
31...i'll be 32 in 9 days. i feel like only decades matter now. 30 mattered. 40 will matter. 32 doesn't mean shit. although i have noticed wrinkles around my eyes.
right now you'er experiencing a serious case of verbal diarrhea.
and those were the bads... i should share some goods.
cory is my light, you guys. i won't lie & say that we're always perfect. in fact, we're far from it. our marriage has definitely had it's ups & downs. right now we're climbing upward and it feels so good.
i had my first thai food experience last night and i'm a changed woman. so fucking good.
after 7 1/2 years i'm finally okay with the idea that having happy children means more than having a clean house. some days it's spotless in here. others it's an episode of hoarders minus the dead cats. every day my kids are fed and laughing. that's a win.
i've re-found my photography mojo when it comes to taking things for myself. i need to get back into the habit of doing it every single day, but at least i'm getting back into the groove.
i finally own an epiphane camera bag/purse. i'd been waiting for 2 years for one of those babies. i will never not feel guilty for spending the money on myself, but we agreed it would be my birthday present from everyone in this house..and i'm totally okay with it. and the thing is amazing. seriously.
even though i'm officially fat, i actually feel more comfortable in my own body than i ever have before. it's crazy i realize. and probably just me making an excuse to stay fat & not work to change it...but it feels nice to feel disgusting for once.
every season of buffy is on netflix right now. my soul is dancing.
we've discovered the joys of stacking dominos then knocking them down. hours of entertainment here, and i'm sure they're learning the importance of something really vital..like physics or something.
my children are healthy, tender, perfect

One day, Daniel Balsam, originally a marketer, got so angry at all the email spam he got that he quit his job, put himself through law school, and made a living for himself suing email spammers. Great AP story, file under "awesome."
Balsam uses California's anti-spam laws to sue spammers and extract settlements, and makes a good living doing it, apparently. He says he has had 40 victories in small claims courts and more in higher courts.
