BEIJING (AP) — China was returning to normalcy Wednesday after angry protests over Japan's wartime occupation and Tokyo's recent purchase of islands also claimed by Beijing.
Beijing sanitation workers were using high-pressure hoses to erase the stains of paint bombs hurled at the Japanese Embassy the day before. Road blocks were removed, allowing for normal traffic around the embassy, and police shooed pedestrians away.
Japanese shops, restaurants and factories in China that closed to avoid being targeted by protesters were open again.
Large and sometimes violent anti-Japan protests roiled many Chinese cities over the weekend, triggered by the Japanese government's purchase last week of the disputed East China Sea islands. More demonstrations followed Tuesday on the 81st anniversary of Japan's invasion of China, an emotional remembrance that further stoked the outrage.
In Beijing, the bitterness spilled over to the nearby U.S. Embassy, with around 50 protestors surrounding the car of U.S. Ambassador Gary Locke and trying to block him from entering the compound.
The U.S., a close ally of Japan, has said it is staying out of the territorial dispute, but it also been the target of Chinese anger.
The State Department said in a statement that Locke was unhurt and that diplomats have expressed concerns to the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
The incident comes amid heightened vigilance for American diplomats following violent attacks on U.S. embassies in Libya, Yemen and Egypt. The statement said embassy officials have asked the Chinese government to do everything possible to protect American facilities and personnel.
Though the demonstrations have wound down, at least temporarily, there has been no progress in resolving the dispute bedeviling relations between the two Asian economic powerhouses.
The islands are tiny rock outcroppings that have been a sore point between China and Japan for decades. Japan has claimed the islands since 1895. The U.S. took jurisdiction after World War II and turned them over to Japan in 1972.
The disagreement escalated last week when the Japanese government said it was purchasing some of the islands from their private owner. Japan considers it an attempt to thwart a potentially more inflammatory move by the governor of Tokyo, who had wanted not only to buy the islands but develop them. But Beijing sees Japan's purchase as an affront to its claims and its past calls for negotiations.
Beijing has sent patrol ships inside Japanese-claimed waters around the islands, and some state media have urged Chinese to show their patriotism by boycotting Japanese goods and canceling travel to Japan

Date: 23/7/2010
The Planning Officers Society stands ready to assist in finding ways to streamline the planning system, especially where this will help meet real local needs.
Local Planning Authorities are not just about saying 'no' indeed the vast majority of applications are in fact approved, but they are also critical in promoting quality development which will help meet the Coalition Government's stated vision to support development which is sustainable.
If certain developments are not to be taken through the planning system some other way would have to be found to ensure that development is sustainable. Issues which are often of most concern to local communities and where expert input is essential include consideration of flood risk; highway safety; impacts on trees and ecology; foul and surface water drainage; and noise and other pollutants and there are many more. LPAs also have experience in securing the delivery of all aspects of a proposed scheme, and drafting conditions and other restrictions to control the negative impacts of a development for example to protect neighbours.
Planning officers also work hard to resolve legitimate objection and crucially check what is actually built. "No doubt a community would feel very let down if the development they supported did not live up to their expectations" said Malcolm Sharp, Society Junior Vice-President and Society representative on the Governemnt's local housing trusts working group,
Sharp told Planning magazine "In this way Planning and Planning Officers can be part of the solution rather than the problem. It should also not be overlooked that this issue is not all about planning but there are other key barriers to be overcome to enable the provision of rural housing and other facilities including land ownership, value, viability and frequently, local opposition."
"As well as these other barriers, solving the problem the Minister identifies is as much about policy rather than process and Government might like to look to itself in terms of what policy replaces PPS3 in promoting rural housing for example a more imaginative approach to exception sites" Sharp added.
The Government announcement can be found at: http://www.communities.gov.uk/news/corporate/1648312

Confrontation in the Southern Ocean has led both the Japanese whaling fleet and Sea Shepherd to claim to be the targets of deliberate collisions.
A video of the latest incident on Monday afternoon, is now posted online.
Sea Shepherd founder, Paul Watson claimed the Nisshin Maru, a Japanese factory ship, rammed one of its vessels, the Bob Barker, twice on Monday afternoon, causing it to collide with a tanker, the Sun Laurel.
However, the Institute of Cetacean Research, said Sea Shepherd vessels sabotaged the Nisshin Maru's refueling, ramming their vessels at least five times.
A Japanese icebreaker, Shirase, has now arrived to assist the whalers.
The Cetacean Institute says the refueling operation is essential for the safe navigation of ship.
It said the attack by Sea Shepherd was not only malicious but threatened the safety of the ships and their crew.
Sea Shepherd last Wednesday claimed the Bob Barker and the Steve Irwin were rammed by the Nishin Maru.
In a statement to Morning Report on Tuesday, the Institute of Cetacean Research Centre said:
''Japan's research whaling in the Antarcticis a perfectly legal activity carried out under the International Whaling Convention for the Regulation of Whaling.
''This time, Sea Shepherd is sabotaging refueling operation, which is essential for the safe navigation of ships, and the sabotage is not only malicious but inconceivably obstructive actions.
''Thus it threatens safety of our research ships and lives of crews on them and is therefore completely unacceptable.
''Over and over again, we call on all related countries including the Netherlands, Australia and New Zealand which are flag states and/or port Sea Shepherd vessels, and the United States in which (the)headquarters of Sea Shepherd is based, to take every measure available to restrain them and deal with their criminal actions in a strict and objective manner.''

I had not thought of using my lineup analysis on this kind of question. I would have to put in some kind of variable for speed.

So that will require some more thought.Cyril Moronghttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-608528753722196209.post-69442217235668362152010-09-28T09:17:16.638-07:002010-09-28T09:17:16.638-07:00Great article; very encouraging to read SABR analy...Great article; very encouraging to read SABR analysis focused on other than HR.

As a student of the game & saber, your analysis reveals a very real world paradox in defending Mr. Jackson.

If he only possessed speed, but no LD ability, opposition defenses could "cheat" in on him. Because of his very high LD rate, though, he's a very real threat against playing "in" as that opens up more hitting room for a LD hitter.

While the saber metrics may not yet capture all of that actual behavior, I believe dual threat players such as Austin Jackson may represent an exciting, but growing challenge to pre-positioned defensive alignment strategy; especially if he holds any added ability to spray his LD around.

Great work & I hope you share some of your simulation work on this topic of a lineup composed of 5 Austin Jacksons & 1 HR firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-608528753722196209.post-89777264467163247292010-09-18T12:53:36.994-07:002010-09-18T12:53:36.994-07:00In case you can't use those links, here they a...In case you can't use those links, here they are again

Good point about home/road.

To answer your question, see something Tom Tango (tangotiger) posted recently.

http://www.insidethebook.com/ee/index.php/site/article/ks/

I also did some analysis on how average changes when strikeout rate changes. Go to

http://www.beyondtheboxscore.com/story/2006/2/28/9349/61300

Here is the relationship I found

AVGChange = -.00036 - .274*(SO/AB)Change

If he dropped his rate to the league rate, a drop of about .08, it looks like his average would go up by .022.

And here is a comment I left at tango's site

I think my results showed that if you struck out 200 times in 600 ABs one year and then only 100 times in 600 ABs the next year, your average would go up .045. Now maybe that kind of change is far out of the normal range, so who knows.

But I dug up an old post I had the SABR list in 2003 where I looked at the biggest changes in SO rate from 1997-98. The biggest 11 drops in SO rate saw an average increase in their AVG of 21 points. Of course, I don't really know if this is all a result of trying not to strike out. Maybe they all lifted weights, generated more bat speed and were able to make more contact.

One other thing I did there was to look at the top power hitters and the weakest power hitters. Both groups had a negative correlation between striking out and their offensive winning percentage.Cyril Moronghttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-608528753722196209.post-36596738630830514552010-09-18T12:27:42.781-07:002010-09-18T12:27:42.781-07:00This is very interesting. Even more interesting wh...This is very interesting. Even more interesting when I looked and saw that his BABIP isn't all that related to ballpark differences... as it's .420 in Detroit & .404 everywhere else. I see the diff, but he's over .400 everywhere?!? That's unusual! Somebody should figure out what his regular BA would be if he struck out at the league average rate or at least cut down his own rate by 10% or something.

I love Austin Jackson. One of my favorite young firstname.lastname@example.com

There are varying opinions as to what determines a successful logo design. Some believe all logos should be simple and iconic like Apple, McDonald's and FedEx – where intricacies are kept to a minimum in order to achieve a bold and timeless look. Others prefer typographic logos that highlight the company's name such as Google, or illustrative logos that tell a story about the business like Starbucks. Regardless of aesthetic preferences most can agree, the core function of a logo is to stimulate brand awareness and maximize marketing potential.
These 4 tips will help create a logo with a lasting impact
1. Invest
First, determine the budget you're working with. Investing in a logo is one of the most important first steps of brand development. Prices can range from $200 to upwards of $200,000. Factors that impact the price such as project requirements, timeline and agency experience. Like any design element, logos are not a commodity. The value of a memorable trademark cannot be calculated by how many hours it takes to create it. While emerging contest and freelance bidding websites like 99designs and Designhill may seem attractive to new business owners, a logo design with an inexpensive price tag may have repercussions. By using these sites you are at risk of engaging with inexperienced artists, receiving little or no communication and even plagiarism. Be sure to choose a designer who will work closely with you and encourage useful feedback.
2. Detailed brief
Developing an effective design brief is critical in ensuring a successful outcome. A brief is a document outlining business objectives and corresponding design strategies. It gets the creative juices flowing and helps the designer think strategically about design solutions. Design briefs can take on various forms but should always include a summary of the project, project goals, target audience, project specifications and timeline.
3. Don't underestimate the power of color
When thinking about a logo for your business, it is important to take into account the way people interpret color. The use of color can bring multiple layers of meaning, from primitive responses based on millions of years of evolved instinct to associations we make based on personal experiences. Psychologists have studied how people are affected by color and found there is a strong correlation between color and emotional response, therefore it is closely tied to how a brand is understood. For example, restaurants like Pizza Hut, KFC and Tim Horton's use red in their logos to stimulate hunger. Black, white, silver and gold are often used in the logos of luxury brands like Prada and Michael Kors to enhance the feeling of sophistication.
Piccolo is a strong example of incorporating color into branding. As a children's design company, the bright texture appeals to our visual senses encouraging creativity. Brighter hues stimulate feelings of energy and evoke a strong response or reaction.
4. Give useful feedback
Your designer may actually present a logo that is close to what you're looking for, but there are often revisions needed. It's up to you to communicate your needs and provide the designer with specific feedback that is useful. Instead of saying, "I don't like any of them," try to articulate what you'd like to see more of and have some examples of what you do like. Offer clear direction without taking over. If you have found a designer that you feel understands your needs, you can be confident he or she will present you with quality work.

True, the appeal of the actual radio show and of the film Robert Altman's elegy to the end of life, work and the pursuit of happiness might have limited appeal among younger audiences. But anyone who respects the master of Americana's (Garrison Keillor) rambling, layered style will get a kick out of this sweet, melancholic romp through the back stages of memory. Kathryn Eastburn

Director Bryan Singer has made a movie about our need for hope in a dark time, trying to cobble his Superman/Jesus metaphors to the necessary machinations of a Hollywood blockbuster. The result is something slightly aloof a hero only briefly allowing us to touch his cape before he's off to the Fortress of Solitude. It's not enough to believe a man can fly. We need to believe that the thing that's flying is actually a man. Scott Renshaw

Google celebrates Chinese Valentine's Day with its homepage doodle
Today's Google doodle celebrates the Qixi or Qiqiao Festival, the Chinese version of Valentine's Day. Their homepage features an interactive game, which asks players to create a bridge of magpies in order to help two lovers meet in the middle of the sea. It's a really beautiful game.
More from CNET on Chinese Valentine's Day:
The festival falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month yearly, which is supposed to be the day when magpies will form a bridge for the lovers to meet. In the mythological tale, they were separated by a goddess because the weaver girl, who is a celestial being, was not supposed to fall in love and marry the mortal cowherd.
If you're unable to find the game at your own Google homepage, click here. The game is kind of hard, actually -- we can't even beat level two!

Health Canada turns to other flu shot suppliers after drugmaker reports delay in order
Health Canada has turned to alternate flu vaccine suppliers after drug manufacturer GSK informed it there will be a delay in fulfilling Canada's order this year.
The problem with production was caused, in part, by "quality-control monitoring" issues, GSK said in a statement to QMI Agency.
But there is no shortage of vaccine for this upcoming flu season, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) said in a statement.
"Provinces and territories are expected to have almost 12 million doses of vaccine available over the course of the season. This is more than was needed last year even with the current shortfall," the statement said.
Even so, the agency has submitted a supplemental order of 1.2 million doses through three additional manufacturers to bolster the "shortfall in additional supply," the agency said.
The first shipment of vaccine is expected the week of Sept. 15.
"A new delivery schedule for the flu vaccine from GSK is still being determined, but it is expected that deliveries will start in the second or third week of October, long before flu immunization demand reaches its peak," PHAC said.
The company, formerly GlaxoSmithKline, made headlines in recent months after inspectors with Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cited the company's Ste-Foy, Que., facility for failing to follow good manufacturing practices.
Canadian inspectors recorded 10 infractions in June, but said none were issues that would affect Canadians' health.
The same Health Canada report said that to ensure there is enough of the flu vaccine this fall for Canadians, the company reverted to a process used in 2012 that had been safely used to produce the vaccine for several years.
GSK said it identified quality-control monitoring issues at the Quebec facility on Aug. 14 and the production line was shut down until Aug. 26, which is part of the reason for the delay.
As well, the company had an "invalid" test result in a component of the trivalent vaccine — which protects against three different flu viruses — that, even with retesting, has come back with inconclusive results.
This will mean just under two million committed doses are no longer available, GSK communications manager Michelle Smolenaars Hunter said in an e-mail.
Shipments from GSK to the U.S. will also be affected, but she said they are not yet sure what the full impact will be south of the border.
The issues the company faced are unrelated to recent and planned inspections, Smolenaars Hunter said.
She said all vaccines that leave their facilities are safe.
"Vaccines manufacturing is a complex and rigorous process, involving quality-control monitoring at every step of production. Patient safety is GSK's first priority, and we are confident our quality-control standards ensure the safety of GSK influenza vaccines made available for patients," Smolenaars Hunter said.
"Every batch of GSK vaccine is subject to extensive review before it is released, and vaccines that do not pass this rigorous review are discarded."

Ed O'Neill of the ABC comedy series "Modern Family" received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday, August 30 in a location that appears to pay tribute to his former television character, Al Bundy, while his real-life wife said he initially did not want such an honor.
The 65-year-old actor's star is located at 7021 Hollywood Boulevard in front of a DSW shoe store. O'Neill played Bundy, a misanthropic, misogynistic shoe salesman and the patriarch of a dysfunctional family, on all seasons of the FOX comedy series "Married With Children," which aired between 1987 and 1997.
O'Neill appeared at a ceremony marking its unveiling and was joined by his wife, Cathy, their two daughters, Sofia, 12 and Claire, 5. Cast members from his television shows also attended and actresses who have played his on-screen wives, Katey Sagal and Sofia Vergara, gave speeches praising the actor.
"When the subject came up about getting a star, he said no, he didn't want to, it's like cheesy or something," O'Neill's real-life wife told OnTheRedCarpet.com, adding that the pair's oldest daughter had told the actor, 'You'd better do it, Daddy. Come on, are you crazy?"
"He doesn't really get enough publicity," Sofia added.
Sagal, who portrayed Bundy's red-headed, bon bon-loving spouse Peg on "Married With Children," and Vergara, who plays the bombshell wife of the actor's current character, Jay Pritchett, on "Modern Family" spoke at O'Neill's star ceremony.
"When I was in Colombia and I was a young, very beautiful girl, I would watch 'Married With Children' and I would see Ed sitting with his hands in the pants and talking with this very sexy Antonio Banderas accent because in Colombia, it was dubbed into Spanish," Vergara told the crowd. "To marry Al Bundy has been one of the most joyful things in my whole life."
Sagal, who currently stars on the FX show "Sons of Anarchy," said she and O'Neill have remained friends for years.
"I was just talking to Sofia - I asked her this question - 'Does he tell you what he eats for lunch?'" Sagal said. "Ed likes to talk about food. I spent 11 years laughing hysterically every day. I just always thought he was the funniest guy on television. I'm just so honored to be here. I love you, Ed."
O'Neil's other "Modern Family" co-stars - Rico Rodriguez, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet and series co-creator Steven Levitan also attended the actor's star ceremony.
"This is a bit overwhelming. It's nice to be here. I want to thank the fans, first of all, for showing up," O'Neill said, before joking: "I can't help but thinking right now ... somewhere in the world, at this moment, in a hospital, a beautiful little baby girl is being born and when she grows up, she's going to be my next wife on TV and I'm looking forward to that day."
O'Neill's performance on "Modern Family" during its previous second season earned him his first Emmy nomination earlier this year. O'Neill received two Golden Globe nods for his role on "Married With Children," which featured the 1955 Frank Sinatra tune "Love and Marriage" as its theme song. The show also David Faustino and Christina Applegate as his loser son and promiscuous daughter.
When asked if he would watch O'Neill receive his Hollywood star, Faustino Tweeted: "I'm getting my car washed. Congrats Ed!"
O'Neill, a native of Youngstown, Ohio, attended Ohio University in Athens and Youngstown State University. He pursued a career in professional football and was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the late 1960s but was cut in training camp. He also worked as a social studies teacher before he became an actor.
He scored his first big acting break in the early 1980s with a guest part on the sitcom "Another World." More minor television roles followed until he landed the part of Bundy on "Married With Children."
His character is a high school football champion who often recalls his glory days as he complains frequently about life - namely, his family and the female customers who frequent the mall shoe store where he works.
Bundy found happiness as well - he enjoyed being in the company of scantily clad women, episodes of his favorite show - the fictional "Psycho Dad," interacting with fellow members of his misogynistic movement "No Ma'am" and telling his female neighbor, his nemesis Marcy, that she looks like a chicken.
O'Neill said at his star ceremony that he was cast in "Married With Children" by a man who saw him act in a revival of the John Steinbeck play "Of Mice and Men" in Connecticut years earlier, adding: "I was a dramatic actor from New York that nobody had ever heard of."
In 1986, O'Neill married Cathy Rusoff, who later had small parts on "Married With Children." At his star ceremony, the actor recalled how the two met in 1980.
"I was doing a Broadway show," he said. "She knew the playwright. I was in the play. We had a couple of drinks. We went out, we fell in love. We moved in together. We eventually got married. We've been together all this time. I've depended on her for almost everything that a human can depend on another human for in my lifetime."
In the early 1990s, O'Neill also played Glen in two "Wayne's World" comedy films, which starred Mike Myers and Dana Carvey as slacker hosts of a public access cable show. O'Neill also appeared in the 1994 comedy "Little Giants" with Rick Moranis and in the 1999 film "The Bone Collector."
Between 2000 and 2007, O'Neill has had recurring roles on shows such as "Big Apple," "L.A. Dragnet, "The West Wing" and "John from Cincinnati." He also made a guest appearance on the comedy series "8 Simple Rules," playing the ex-boyfriend of Sagal's character.
In 2009, O'Neill began playing patriarch Pritchett on "Modern Family," which won an Emmy for Best Comedy Series in 2010. The show is nominated for a total of 17 Emmys this year. Fox Home Entertainment will release the second season of "Modern Family" on Blu-ray and DVD on September 20.
O'Neill is competing against "Glee" star Chris Colfer, "Two and a Half Men" actor Jon Cryer and his "Modern Family" co-stars Ferguson, Stonestreet and Ty Burrell for the Emmy for Best Supporting Actor at this year's Emmys ceremony, which is set to take place on September 18. Stonestreet took home the award in 2010. (Check out a full list of nominations for the 2011 Emmy Awards.)

Is it wrong to be selfish in early recovery?
Selfishness in addiction recovery
Many people talk about putting yourself first in order to recover from drug, alcohol or chemical addictions. For some people, early recovery may be a necessary time of self-reflection and time spent alone. Others, however, cannot really afford to shelter from the storm of life, and must press on. We'll attempt to talk here about prioritizing the "self" in early recovery by offering thoughts on both sides of the fence.
What do you think? Please share your feedback and comments below.
1. No, it is OK to be selfish in early recovery
The most important thing that you have to do in recovery is to stay clean. For some people, selfishness is a survival mechanism in early recovery. In fact, selfishness is not even a choice but is a mark of where you are in your psycho-spiritual development. If you're not capable of doing else than being selfish, but you can stay clean and sober, then continue doing what you're doing. But, be sure to define "early recovery" within a certain time frame (up to 1 year seems good)…and try not to use selfishness as an excuse to do bad things. Do what you can, and put effort into growing up and out of selfishness as you accumulate clean time.
2. Yes, it's wrong to be selfish in early recovery
In active addiction, addicts and alcoholics are by nature selfish. Addiction is a self-centered disease, which not only feeds on the mental, physical, and spiritual elements of the self, but drains the lives of loved ones. Responsibilities and obligations do not matter to the active addict, but should become more important to an addict in recovery. Otherwise, it is unfair to the people that have been "taken hostage" during addictive periods. Continued selfishness in early recovery can be a refusal to grow out of an immature state of mind, and needs to be overcome.

I am a recovering alcoholic, over 10 years clean and free. My opinion is yes, it is wrong to be "selfish". I completely agree, that in the early stages you must be very careful with what you do, where you go, who you see and so forth. However, this can be done without being "selfish". The key is to be open and honest with those closest to you. You must have a plan upfront, and some common understanding of what is needed to make the journey. If your loved ones are truly your loved one and friends are real friends, they will understand and support you. However, I can stress enough that you have to be transparent in these situations. You can state, "I need to stay away…." or "I need some time alone for this reason….". If you are transparent and also remain accountable (do not just disappear and state you needed time), you can accomplish both agendas, the focus and growth without a selfish attitude. That was my experience.
Just my $0.02 worth! Great blog by the way.
There isn't a right or wrong answer to this question. From my perspective on the other side of the fence (husband in recovery from dual addictions) the very selfish nature of the addict/alcoholic needs as much treatment as the disease itself.
Certainly, selfishness is necessary to the extent the one in recovery must put their recovery needs in front of all else. However, receiving constant reinforcement that selfishness is a good thing from "professionals" can lead to justifying being selfish in unhealthy areas.
I read the term "mature selfishness" on another website. So, the totally selfish addict/alcoholic is expected to become magically rational, realistic and mature in early recovery? Nearly all the innumerable addict/alcoholics I've known in my life were lost at a very young age, preteens to teens, and never attained maturity.
Unfortunately, they won't have the luxury of having another few years to grow up and become responsible adults. Once considered rehabilitated they will be thrust out in the world and expected to act their age. The trouble is the physical age may be 42 while the mental and emotional age may be 12!
Many factors come into play when discussing how individuals in early recovery think, feel, and act. For instance, what was the age of first use, age of dependent substance use, is there substance dependence in either parent/siblings/other relations, is there a co-occurring mental health/physical health disorder, what drugs were used, what substances is the individual dependent upon, what is/was the length of the dependency, and the list goes on and on. We cannot generalize what early recovery looks like. Doing this will be putting a square peg in a round hole, which does not assist individuals to find recovery. There are more than likely many sub-types of substance dependence that may or may not show a generalizable or typical early recovery response. Also, we need to remember that in any given year only around 1.1% of substance dependent individuals attend treatment. 1.1% is too small of a sample size to attempt to describe recovery for the incredible number of people finding recovery daily without any clinical intervention.
So, a completely selfish addicts/alcohol is expected to be rational, realistic and mature miraculously in early recovery? Almost all the countless addict I know/alcoholics were missing in my life at a very young age, teenage youth, and never reached maturity.
I think there is a difference between self centered "selfishness " and self care. Self care focuses on the goals of recovery and seeks to make them a priority with well balanced intention and consideration of the needs of self and others.
Havent the loved ones of addicts been ignored enough when they were active? For a recovering alcoholic to selfishly and completely ignore loved ones with the excuse that they need to "focus on my sobriety" just adds to the feelings of anger and resentment in loved ones that may have very well been destroyed by the addicts original selfish behavior. And if rehab facilities are suggesting this selfishness, they should have their licenses revoked.

Thanks to the shuffling of papers--stock certificates, dollar bills and a leading chain of dailies--there's a new No. 2 in newspaper circulation.
McClatchy Co., publisher of the Sacramento Bee, Minneapolis Star Tribune and 10 other daily papers, was poised Monday to assume the mantle, announcing its purchase of Knight Ridder Inc., owner of the Miami Herald and 31 other dailies, for about $4.5 billion in cash and shares.

I took the Robin Eggs from a nest that was right beside a footpath, I zoomed in , took a shot and then immediately left the area so that I didn't disturb the nest. If the nest wasn't on the trail I would not have approached it. I've seen nests , and will take photo's from a distance but still will not stay long so as not to stress the birds.
How would you feel if a photographer stuck there head in the window of your home, and began to take photo's of you sitting on your couch while your pregnant or better yet start taking photo's leaning in a 2nd story window of your baby in their crib.
Yes it's a wild exaggeration but you get the point.
I thought the article made sense so hope you check it out.
The article was really interesting! This Spring, I witnessed a killdeer doing the broken wing trick. Such a clever bird! Thank you for sharing!
A good link, Paul, but it doesn't specifically mention one of the more obvious signs: a bird with food.
Over and over I hear people gushing about this or that bird that "posed" for lots of photos or will hang around when it's catching insects or some other similar scenario.
They are completely oblivious to the fact that the birds are trying to get to their young with that food but the parent bird will not go to the nest as long as the human threat remains in the vicinity.
The article says, in part: As a rule, when the behavior of a bird seems oddly conspicuous or if you see a bird acting in a way you don't normally observe, you might be too close to a nest.
That's sound advice.
it's a good point, that's why I like discussion boards, because they add to the original posting. Thanks for sharing it Ralph. Really with any posting I welcome discussion cause that's how we all learn.

I never buy anything that has "high fructose corn syrup" on the list of ingredients, to the annoyance of certain members of my household. Now a research team at Princeton University can back up my assertions that it's far worse for you than sugar, as reported in Princeton's News Site:
A Princeton University research team has demonstrated that all sweeteners are not equal when it comes to weight gain: Rats with access to high-fructose corn syrup gained significantly more weight than those with access to table sugar, even when their overall caloric intake was the same.
In addition to causing significant weight gain in lab animals, long-term consumption of high-fructose corn syrup also led to abnormal increases in body fat, especially in the abdomen, and a rise in circulating blood fats called triglycerides. The researchers say the work sheds light on the factors contributing to obesity trends in the United States.
"Some people have claimed that high-fructose corn syrup is no different than other sweeteners when it comes to weight gain and obesity, but our results make it clear that this just isn't true, at least under the conditions of our tests," said psychology professor Bart Hoebel, who specializes in the neuroscience of appetite, weight and sugar addiction. "When rats are drinking high-fructose corn syrup at levels well below those in soda pop, they're becoming obese — every single one, across the board. Even when rats are fed a high-fat diet, you don't see this; they don't all gain extra weight."
In results published online March 18 by the journal Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behavior, the researchers from the Department of Psychology and the Princeton Neuroscience Institute reported on two experiments investigating the link between the consumption of high-fructose corn syrup and obesity…

The Sports Xchange
Blue Jackets 2, Canucks 1 (OT)
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Left for dead 10 days ago, the Columbus Blue Jackets are starting to figure out how to thrive in close games.
The Sports Xchange
Blue Jackets 2, Canucks 1 (OT)
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Left for dead 10 days ago, the Columbus Blue Jackets are starting to figure out how to thrive in close games.
Matt Calvert carried the puck the length of the ice, slipped a check along the wall as he entered the Vancouver zone and then scored on a wrister with 56.9 seconds remaining in overtime to give the Blue Jackets a 2-1 win Thursday night in Nationwide Arena.
It was the ninth straight one-goal game for the Blue Jackets and the fifth straight game that went to overtime. They've won the last three, their first three-game winning streak of the season.
Calvert scored his fourth goal of the season. R.J. Umberger also scored for the Blue Jackets, and goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky had 34 saves in his second straight strong outing.
The Canucks, 1-3-2 in their last six games, are slumping for the first time this season.
Henrik Sedin scored Vancouver's only goal early in the third period. The Canucks generated 35 shots on goal but only a handful of pure scoring chances.
Vancouver goaltender Cory Schneider had 25 saves but had virtually no chance on Calvert's shot after the second-year winger skated through the right circle and into the slot, waiting for Schneider to commit. Calvert beat him high to the glove side.
The Blue Jackets had been 2-7-3 in their last 10 games against Vancouver.
Columbus took a 1-0 lead at 11:33 of the first period. Nick Foligno carried the puck behind the net and was stopped by Schneider on a wrap-around, but Umberger was there for the rebound.
It wasn't until early in the third period that the Canucks drew even.
A shot by Daniel Sedin was deflected by Canucks defenseman Dan Hamhuis, sending the puck across the slot, through the legs of Columbus defenseman Dalton Prout and right to a waiting Henrik Sedin.
Bobrovsky made a huge save with 4:49 remaining in the third period, stopping Vancouver's Jannik Hansen on a short-handed breakaway after an egregious turnover by Jackets defenseman Jack Johnson.
NOTES: Blue Jackets winger Derek Dorsett left the game early in the first period with an upper-body injury. He did not return. ... Vancouver played without defensemen Kevin Bieksa (groin) and Keith Ballard (charley horse), putting Cam Barker and Andrew Alberts in the lineup on the third pairing. ... The Blue Jackets' wish to switch to the Eastern Conference took a major step forward as the NHL Players' Association approved the league's plan to realign for next season. The Jackets have been the Eastern-most Western Conference club since joining the NHL as an expansion franchise in 2000. ... The last five Blue Jackets games have gone to overtime, and their last nine games have been decided by one goal.

Pinewood Derby Rail Riding Q&A
What is rail riding?
If a pinewood derby car is aligned to run straight, but the track is not consistently level (very common), the car will contact the center guide rail both with the left wheels and the right wheels. If a raised wheel is used, then the raised wheel will likely contact the guide rail and start spinning. This will cancel any benefit attained from the raised wheel.
To compensate for the unknown condition of the track, the car can be intentionally steered such that the raised wheel does not contact the guide rail. For this discussion, we will assume that the left-front wheel is raised (if the right-front wheel is raised, then everything discussed below is reversed).
Adjust the right-front wheel so that the car drifts to the left - this keeps the left-front wheel from contacting the guide rail. With this drift, and if the rear wheels are aligned to run straight, then only the right-front wheel will contact the guide rail. To ensure that the right-rear wheel stays off the rail, the right-front of the car can be narrowed by 1/16 inch.
Tests show that when this Rail-rider technique is implemented, car performance is consistently faster than straight alignment.
Why does rail riding help?
Two major reasons: (1) The rear wheels of the car carry more weight, so there is a greater speed loss when a rear wheel contacts the guide rail than when a front wheel touches the guide rail. With rail riding, the rear wheels do not contact the guide rail. (2) When a raised front wheel is used, to gain a benefit it must not contact the guide rail and start spinning. Rail riding keeps the raised wheel off of the track.
Our pack does not allow a raised wheel. Can I still rail ride?
Yes, although the benefit is not as great, keeping the rear wheels off of the rail will still provide a performance benefit.
How much should the car drift?
The amount of drift should be 3 to 5 inches over 8 feet.
Must the axles be angled to rail ride?
Although, angled axles are commonly used when rail riding, rail riding itself does not mandate angled axles.
Are there tools to help with rail riding?
Yes, the
Pro-Rail Rider Tool
is specifically designed to angle a front axle so that it can be steered. The tool can also be used to angle the other axles if desired. Note that a
Pro-Axle Press
is required to use the Pro-Rail Rider tool.
If you do not want to bend an axle, then the desired steering correction can be accomplished by shimming one of the front axles, which will force the car to steer left or right.
Do I need access to a track to implement rail-riding?
No. In fact you can better set the proper drift using an alignment board. An alignment board is created as follows:
First, find a smooth, level surface that is 6 to 8 feet long. A smooth table top or a sheet of MDF (Home Depot, et al) work well. Next, place a piece of masking tape down the middle of the surface, running from one end to the other. Better, use a marker to draw the center line. Measure accurately to make sure the line is straight and centered.
Raise one end of this Ĺtest trackĺ about three inches with books or a piece of wood. Level the test track side to side by rolling a large steel ball (or billiard ball) down the track. Use shims of wood or paper to level the track so that the ball follows the stripe.
Finally, place a pillow at the downhill end. To use the test track, place the car at the uphill end and align the edge of the car with the line. Make sure to place the car exactly even with the line on each test - a slight difference in placement will make a big difference in accuracy.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 2 sheets of parchment paper large enough to completely cover the fish when folded. Wash and dry the trout. Using a knife, score the fish on 1 side by cutting slits into the flesh just until you feel the bone. Season the trout generously, inside and out with salt and pepper. Spread 1/4 cup of the onions on each sheet of parchment. Place fish on top, scored side up. Stuff the inside of the fish with herbs. (It?s ok if they stick out a bit). Top each fish with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the shallot butter. Cover with the lemon slices. Drizzle 1 tablespoon white wine and 1/2 tablespoon olive oil over each fish. Fold the parchment over the fish. Starting at 1 end, fold the paper on itself, making sure to completely seal it. At the end, fold it underneath itself. Repeat. Place fish on large baking sheet and cook for about 12 to 15 minutes. To serve, place trout en Papillote on a platter. Cut the parchment at the table to ensure that all the aromas stay inside the package.
In a food processor, combine all ingredients until mixed. Place whipped butter mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into a log. Freeze until ready to use. Butter will keep in the freezer for at least a month.
