This morning, this headline came via Bloomberg (via @Jackbeckman):
Amazon Tablet Share Fell to Just Over 4% 1Q Vs 16.8% in 4Q: IDC
That's quite a big market share collapse!
I observed that it must mean that the Amazon Tablet (the Kindle Fire) is something people will buy as a gift over the holidays, but won't buy themselves to actually use.
When people are buying tablets for themselves, they buy Apple's iPad.
It sounds like a joke, but it's actually consistent with what others observe.
Our Jay Yarow owns an iPad, but bought two Kindle Fires as gifts for relatives.
Matt Miller of Bloomberg said the same thing on Twitter.
So did Market Plunger on Twitter.
So that's quite a trend. People will buy the Kindle Fire over the holidays as gifts, but don't buy them during non-gift seasons.
The Kindle Fire is the fruitcake of tablets.

Blanton hurt by homers as Angels go down swinging
Hamilton's game-ending K sets club record with 36 in Opening Series
CINCINNATI -- Thursday's game against the Reds, an eventual 5-4 loss at Great American Ball Park, started and finished quite fittingly for the Angels: Joe Blanton's very first pitch went out for a home run, and Josh Hamilton's final swing resulted in a game-ending strikeout.
Home runs have always been a part of Blanton's game, and it was no different in his Angels debut, when he served up three of them -- and almost four -- while giving up five runs (four earned) in a five-inning outing.
Strikeouts, meanwhile, were a major reason the Angels dropped two of three in this Opening Series. They whiffed 36 times against the Reds, breaking the previous club record of 35 for a three-game set.
"It wasn't like guys were going there 1-2-3," Hamilton disputed, after starting his Angels career 1-for-12 with six strikeouts and two walks. "Guys were going deep in counts and making pitchers throw pitches. Their pitchers did a good job, for the most part."
And it was hard-throwing closer Aroldis Chapman who finished the job.
With the Angels down one in the top of the ninth, Mike Trout led off with a single, then advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt that Erick Aybar almost beat out for his fourth hit. Albert Pujols, who drove in two runs and hit a double, squared one up against the lanky left-hander but lined out hard to right fielder Jay Bruce.
Then came Hamilton, thrust into one of baseball's most uncomfortable situations -- batting left-handed against Chapman, whom he's never really seen outside of Spring Training.
"It doesn't look like 98, 99 [mph] -- I've faced guys who throw 94 and it looks harder than that -- but it just kind of comes out of nowhere," Hamilton said. "It's kind of weird. That makes it challenging.
"I couldn't figure out where his arm slot was. That's a problem. You just try to look in a general area."
Chapman, who limited lefty hitters to a .330 OPS last season, put Hamilton in an 0-2 hole. The Angels' right fielder then fouled off a 99-mph fastball, but swung through a 98-mph one on the outside corner to end the game. It was the Angels' ninth strikeout of the game, after 10 in a 5-4 loss on Wednesday night and 17 in Monday's Opening Day, 13-inning victory.
"We definitely have a power element that's going to show up this year, and there are some strikeouts in our lineup that goes hand in hand with some of the guys," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "But with our team speed, I think we have enough situational hitters throughout our lineup that hopefully we'll be able to get the power numbers we have and still be able to manufacture and do some things."
Blanton got, as he said, "ambushed" on his first pitch of the game -- a low fastball that Shin-Soo Choo hit into the seats in left-center field. With that, Blanton became the first Angels pitcher since Jason Dickson on Aug. 21, 1996 -- against Derek Jeter, in Dickson's Major League debut -- to give up a homer on his first pitch with the Angels.
Blanton gave up another one to lead off the second to Todd Frazier, who just missed his second by hitting one on the yellow line in the fourth, and then one more to Chris Heisey to drive in two in the fifth. When Blanton left, the Angels had a 5-3 deficit and he had become just the fourth Angels pitcher -- joining Chris Bootcheck (2003), Seth Etherton (2000) and George Witt (1962) -- to give up three or more long balls in his Angels debut.
Blanton ranked 12th in the Majors with 169 home runs allowed from 2005-12, even though he was limited to 41 1/3 innings with the Phillies in 2011. His 29 homers last year ranked second in the National League.
In short, home runs are part of who he is -- just like strikeouts will seemingly be part of the Angels' identity on offense.
You take the good with the bad.
"I'm going to keep throwing strikes, regardless of what they're hitting and how they're hitting," Blanton said. "Whatever pitch I happen to be throwing, I'm going to try to throw a quality strike. There's quality strikes and non-quality strikes. Two of the three [homers] weren't quality strikes, but sometimes that happens. Sometimes you'll get away with those when they pop those up, and sometimes you won't."

The AMAM acquired a magnificent 18th-century French painting by François Boucher (1703 - 70), Allegory of the Education of Louis XV, painted in about 1756, in late 2007.
The work is a grisaille (a painting done entirely in shades of grey, black, and white), a type of painting often used by Boucher as a preliminary sketch for later, larger color compositions. The AMAM painting, however, is a sketch Boucher prepared as part of a series of engravings depicting episodes in the life of King Louis XV (1710 - 74). Using the allegorical guise of the sea-nymph Thetis presenting her son Achilles to the centaur Chiron, who tutored the young hero, the painting represents the moment when the young Louis XV, age 7, was removed from the care of his female governess and given over into the care of men. Hovering behind the muscular centaur are Fame and Athena, goddess of wisdom. Above is a delightful chorus of 7 putti with copiously dimpled flesh, supporting garlands around empty spaces. In the final print, these spaces held depictions of the obverse and reverse of a medallion, showing the king and a scene from the Aeneid that alludes to the education of the young ruler.
Boucher holds an unparalleled place among 18th-century artists, and has been seen since the 19th century as the artist who most embodied the taste and style of 18th-century art. He excelled in painting, drawing and printmaking (as well as tapestry and porcelain design) and was especially known for the virtuosity and freedom of his draftsmanship. This is evident in the AMAM's work, executed at a time when Boucher was at the height of his artistic powers and popularity. He was the favorite painter of Madame de Pompadour, mistress to the king, and later held the important positions of First Painter to the King and Director of the Royal Academy. The new Boucher painting joins the AMAM's other distinguished works from the late 17th and early 18th centuries in France, by Coypel, Patel, Pater, Chardin, Nattier, Oudry, and Lagrenée.

Government Unveils Plans for Country's First Net-Zero Energy Historic Building
February 4, 2011
GSA to transform 92-year-old Western courthouse into a lab of efficiency and innovation.
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. – GSA Administrator Martha N. Johnson was in Grand Junction today to unveil plans to turn the 92-year-old Wayne Aspinall Federal Building and Courthouse into the country's first net-zero energy usage historic building.
"This building is on track to be the first of its kind in the entire nation," said Johnson. "GSA will partner with regional businesses to maintain the historic features that make the building unique, while investing in sustainable technologies to make it one of the most energy- and cost-efficient buildings in the country. The result will be something special that the entire country can look to as a model of innovation and efficiency."
The building design is aiming to achieve net-zero energy usage, meaning the building will produce as much energy as it consumes in a year. If the goal is reached, this would be the country's first net-zero building on the National Register of Historic Places. The project is also targeting Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council, USGBC's highest level of certification.
"People don't usually associate innovation with the federal government. But our industry does. We know GSA innovates and partners with the private sector for results," said Paul Westlake, managing principal at Westlake Reed Leskosky, an architecture and engineering firm. "GSA drives norms that have a ripple effect throughout the private sector."
GSA will install an energy-saving geothermal heating and cooling system that uses the warmth or cold of the ground to control temperature, and a solar panel array that is projected to generate enough energy to balance out the electrical demand of the building. Additional energy produced in excess of the building's needs will be exported to Grand Junction's electrical grid. The building will also feature state-of-the-art fluorescent light fixtures with wireless controls to adjust lighting to respond to natural light levels, and storm windows with solar control film to reduce demand on heating and cooling.
"These renovations will ensure that the building is running at top efficiency," said Johnson. "Ultimately, sustainability is about no waste. And no waste ensures that we are being as efficient as possible with taxpayer dollars."
Government buildings that are renovated with sustainable technologies often see double-digit energy reductions, cumulatively saving taxpayers millions of dollars each year, she said.
After touring the Aspinall building, the administrator met with representatives from the region's robust geothermal industry to discuss the opportunities and challenges they face, and Johnson expressed interest in continuing to expand the use of geothermal technologies at federal buildings across the country.
Originally designed by renowned architect James Wetmore, the Wayne Aspinall Federal Building was constructed as a post office and courthouse and completed in 1918. In 1939, a large extension was added. Project completion is scheduled for January 2013, at which time the state-of-the-art building will host nine federal agencies.
As the federal government's workplace solutions provider, the U.S. General Services Administration works to foster an effective, sustainable and transparent government for the American people. GSA's expertise in government workplace solutions include:
• Effective management of government assets including more than 9,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 215,000 vehicles in the federal fleet, and preservation of historic federal properties;
• Leveraging the government's buying power through responsible acquisition of products and services making up approximately 14percent of the government's total procurement dollars;
• Providing innovative technology solutions to enhance government efficiency and increase citizen engagement; and,
• Promoting responsible use of federal resources through development of governmentwide policies ranging from federal travel to property and management practices.

Offshore may refer to:
Offshore (1979) is a novel by Penelope Fitzgerald. It won the Booker Prize for that year. It recalls her time spent on boats on the Thames in Battersea. The novel explores the liminality of people who do not belong to the land or the sea, but are somewhere in between. The epigraph, "che mena il vento, e che batte la pioggia, e che s'incontran con si aspre lingue" ("whom the wind drives, or whom the rain beats, or those who clash with such bitter tongues") comes from Canto XI of Dante's Inferno.
"Offshore", when used relative to hydrocarbons, refers to an oil, natural gas or condensate field that is under the sea, or to activities or operations carried out in relation to such a field. There are various types of platform used in the development of offshore oil and gas fields, and subsea facilities.
Offshore exploration is performed with floating drilling units.

In collaboration with Vermilion Oil and Gas Australia (VOGA) we are investigating the ecology of offshore oil and gas platforms. Many of the world's oil and gas platforms will reach their end-of-life in the next 10-20 years, with the global decommissioning industry expected to be worth US$82 Billion by 2040. Conventional thinking and international and national legislation prescribe that these platforms be removed in their entirety upon decommissioning. However, these platforms have been a part of the marine environment for more than 20 years which means that they have become 'novel ecosystems' in themselves.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century. Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night, and his most famous, The Great Gatsby. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age. The Great Gatsby has been the basis for numerous films of the same name, spanning nearly 90 years; 1926, 1949, 1974...

Frank Johnson Jr. For the last 40-plus years, Frank Johnson and Mold Craft Products have been household names for offshore anglers around the world. Born on October 7, 1938, in Middleton, New York, Frank W. Johnson, Jr., began his love of fishing in the streams and lakes of upstate New York, a world apart from the offshore fishing realm on which he would later leave an indelible mark. After graduating from high school in 1956, Frank earned an apprenticeship at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in Hartford, Connecticut, where he first learned the many aspects of product development and manufacturing. During this time, he also began fishing in Long Island Sound and off Cape Cod, where he soon became an accomplished saltwater angler. In 1969, Johnson relocated to Boca Raton, Florida, where he ca...

The proposed research will transform our understanding of the sinks, distribution, and transport processes of sedimentary hydrocarbons by investigating the connectivity of geomorphological features (erosional channels, lee depocenters, and isolated valleys), and the sedimentological and physical oceanographic processes (resuspension, advection and re-sedimentation) affecting oil-derived hydrocarbon distribution and deposition within the BNL in the deep sea. This research will build on and synthesize information from seafloor topographic and petrocarbon mapping and sediment studies by ECOGIG, C-IMAGE and Deep-C consortia as well as deep sea current measurements and model data provided by the GISR and ECOGIG-II consortia. This project will address the impacts of hydrocarbon deposition in a m...
- Like our Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oilvips - Oil and gas are generated from a source rock, organic matter buried in the depths of the earth. Once formed, they climb back towards the surface. On their way, cap rocks can impede their progress and they accumulate in reservoir rocks. Here they constitute hydrocarbon fields, which can be identified by interpreting seismic data (a sort of echography). The data is obtained with the help of a seismic ship. To confirm the interpretations of seismic data, two types of drilling gear exist. Each is adapted to a range of depth of water (down to more than 2500 meters). The platform seen here is a semi-submersible, which floats and retains its stabilised position by means of anchors fixed on the seabed. Platforms at sea are used not only f...
A floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit is a floating vessel used by the offshore oil and gas industry for the production and processing of hydrocarbons, and for the storage of oil. A FPSO vessel is designed to receive hydrocarbons produced by itself or from nearby platforms or subsea template, process them, and store oil until it can be offloaded onto a tanker or, less frequently, transported through a pipeline. FPSOs are preferred in frontier offshore regions as they are easy to install, and do not require a local pipeline infrastructure to export oil. FPSOs can be a conversion of an oil tanker or can be a vessel built specially for the application. A vessel used only to store oil (without processing it) is referred to as a floating storage and offloading (FSO) vessel. ...
#oilwire - Hansa Hydrocarbons Limited has announced that the N05-1 exploration well drilled offshore Netherlands on its GEms licences, has been confirmed as a significant discovery, encountering gas in the target basal Rotliegend sandstones. Hansa and its partners Oranje-Nassau Energie B.V. (ONE) and Energie Beheer Nederland B.V. (EBN, the Dutch State entity), further appraised the reservoir distribution and delineated the structure with a downdip geological side-track, which also encountered gas. The reservoir interval was cored throughout and 24 m of net sand was encountered with high permeability. This was confirmed by the DST in the vertical well, which was flow tested at a maximum sustained flow rate of 53 MMscfd, which was the limit of surface equipment. The results of the well excee...
Finding Opportunities in Southern Africa Reviewing the potential oil and gas industry in Southern Africa Wednesday, January 09, 2013 London The Geological Society
Launched as part of the Offshore Day 2012 celebration, which was held in Halul Island on 17 December 2012, this video showcases the 50 years of success of QP's Offshore Operations in operating, producing and exporting hydrocarbons from Qatar's offshore fields. QP's Offshore Operations has been operating the Maydan Mahzam and Bul Hanine oil fields and the Halul Island Terminal and Export facilities for the past 50 years with excellent safety record while protecting and caring for the environment. Qatar Marine Crude from these fields represents about 28% of Qatar's total crude oil production, out of which 10% comes from QP-operated fields and 18% from QP's joint venture partners.

What lies behind a producing oil field? Some of the answers might be a set of coincidences, 300 million years, and skills like geological understanding, patience and optimism. And a little bit of luck. In this film we have condensed this 300 million year story to just ten minutes. It was originally produced for our participation at the energy trade fare ONS 2016.
Jason Devereux, Principal Consultant discusses how human factors can affect hydrocarbon releases on offshore drilling platforms. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) believes that of the occurring HCRs, 50-70% have causes linked in part or in whole to human factors. Jason discusses how we can help you reduce this number.

Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessels, or FPSOs, are offshore production facilities that house both processing equipment and storage for produced hydrocarbons. The basic design of most FPSOs encompasses a ship-shaped vessel, with processing equipment, or topsides, aboard the vessel's deck and hydrocarbon storage below in the double hull. After processing, an FPSO stores oil or gas before offloading periodically to shuttle tankers or transmitting processed petroleum via pipelines. FPSO Moored in place by various mooring systems, FPSOs are effective development solutions for both deepwater and ultra-deepwater fields. A central mooring system allows the vessel to rotate freely to best respond to weather conditions, or weathervane, while spread-mooring systems anchor the vessel f...
George Pamboridis, managing partner at Pamboridis LLC and an advisor for The Institute for Eurodemocracy Glafcos Clerides, discusses how hydrocarbon finds in the Eastern Mediterranean have been both a source of opportunity and conflict in the region. He also explains the security risks affecting offshore activities in the Eastern Mediterranean.

Full name John O'Neill
Born 1951
Current age 68 years days
Major teams Australia
Other Administrator
John O'Neill is the controversial CEO of the Australian Rugby Union. An often outspoken and flamboyant figure, O'Neill has often been vocal with his criticisms of those within the ARU and abroad.
O'Neill first held the position of chief executive with the ARU between 1995 and 2003, during which time he presided over a World Cup victory, two Tri Nations victories, five consecutive Bledisloe Cup successes and the Australian hosting of the 2003 World Cup.
Having led the Wallabies into the world of professionalism, O'Neill's greatest success proved to be the successful hosting of the 2003 World Cup. Following the final of the competition, and despite the Australian side losing to England, the Wallaby coffers were swelled by up to $45m.
This was a marked difference to the state of affairs O'Neill inherited in 1995, with the ARU operating at a loss for several years previously.
Following the end of the 2003 World Cup O'Neill left his position with the ARU and took another, with the Football Federation of Australia.
O'Neill's success continued, with "soccer" becoming increasingly more successful over time. Gates for the new 8 team A-League increased from around 4000 to 10000 under his stewardship and the final of the competition was a sell out at Aussie Stadium.
O'Neill was instrumental in securing the services of Guus Hiddink as coach for the Australian national side during the 2006 World Cup, which they exited at the round of 16 for their best ever result at a finals.
Following the World Cup, O'Neill ended his contract with the FFA early. He returned to his former post with the ARU in June 2007, in time for the 2007 Rugby World Cup.
O'Neill's statements have been linked in several cases to his desire to improve the standing of rugby union in Australia, as it currently stand fourth in the country's affections behind Aussie Rules, Cricket and Rugby League. In 2012, he was appointed to the board of Rugby World Cup Ltd, the body charged with delivering the game's showpiece event.

This is a follow up to a prior issue posted here. I think I'm making progress but I'm still struggling.
I'm having trouble getting a java web start application working. If you go to this website and try to start it, you'll see the java 6 icon come up and then disappear followed by nothing (if you don't, you're getting a different result from me). It's as if it's hanging.

Beam Me Up, Scotty! 'Warp Drive' Is Coming
Scientists are cautiously optimistic that a warp drive, like the ones made so famous in 'Star Trek' is more likely than they once thought.
For non science-geeks, a warp drive could manipulate space-time itself to move a starship. A concept for a warp drive was developed in 1994 by a Mexican physicist named Miguel Alcubierre, who originally thought that the device could surround a football-shaped starship in a flat ring, so that it could move 10 times the speed of light. The only problem with that idea is that it would require a minimum amount of energy the size of Jupiter.
However, now physicists are saying that if they adjust the calculations to make the warp drive run on less energy, it may be possible to translate this science-fiction idea into real life. Harrold "Sonny" White of NASA's Johnson Space Center mentioned that he was hopeful about creating a feasible warp drive as he spoke at the 100 Year Starship Symposium on Friday, September 14th. The idea is that instead of using a flat ring, the starship would be surrounded by a rounded doughnut and could be powered by a device the size of the Voyager 1 space probe. Further decreases to energy use would come in the form of oscillating the intensity of the space-time warps in the device.
White has already set up a mini-warp drive in his laboratory and has begun experimenting with it. It's a baby step, but who knows? Perhaps it will be the first step towards boldly going where no man has gone before.

A guest host on QVC who fainted on the air in the middle of a product pitch says she's doing fine.
Cassie Slane was selling a child-friendly computer tablet on the home shopping channel when she collapsed Sunday. The camera immediately cut away to a product shot as host Dan Hughes went on with the show and continued to talk about the item.
On Facebook, Slane thanked fans for their support and said she was feeling much better, while Hughes praised "the rapid response and immediate care that came to Cassie's side."
Another QVC host, Carolyn Gracie, told her Facebook followers that low blood sugar was the culprit that caused Slane's fainting spell.

Zayn Malik's Instagram Is Now Open to Adoring Public [PHOTOS]by Mandi Salerno | PopCrush
This is a public service announcement: Zayn Malik's Instagram is now public.
For you Directioners who haven't already heard the news and flocked to add the One Direction member on Insta, we're here to let you know that Zayn, who until today has largely kept his account on lock, is now allowing us mere mortals access to his photos.
The boy band member joined Instagram nearly two years ago, but kept so quiet about his account that it didn't cross fans' radars until earlier this year. As soon as it did and his follower count started ticking rapidly upwards, he made his account private. Bummer! It was up to the few who followed him within that small window to update the rest of us on what he was posting. (And thanks to Twitter and Tumblr, that happened pretty easily.)
Those select updaters are no longer needed now! Today (July 15), for the first time since his account was largely discovered, the IG user 'niazkilam' (which spells Zain Malik backwards [Zain is the legal spelling of his first name]) is open to the public and available to scroll through to your heart's content.
Now we can admire Zayn's numerous selfies in all their glory. And goodness, are they glorious.

'The new towers of London will make this world city even more world class,' says Rory Olcayto
More from: AJ readers pick the schemes to watch in 2013
London has one of the finest skylines in the world. Centre Point. The Nat West Tower. Guy's and St Thomas'. The Orbit. These striking towers are loved the world over. But it's about to get a whole lot better. There are more than 20 tall buildings planned that will change London for ever.
Thank you Broadway Malyan for leading the charge with a new tower in Vauxhall, cleverly named The Tower. It may not quite match up to St George Wharf, the same firm's masterpiece alongside it but then everyone knows that development in particular, whose 'specialness' was only recently eclipsed by the Strata in Elephant and Castle, has helped London become a world city once again.
Rafael Viñoly's Walkie Talkie is another soon-to-be-cherished icon. It's in the City, so obviously it's going to be extra special. That part of London is run by the architecture-loving chief planning officer Peter Rees, who would never commission anything unless it was of the highest quality. Norman Foster's Walbrook for example - near Cannon Street for those of you who don't live in this most beautiful of world cities - is the most admired building the high-tech master has ever designed.
But I digress. Depite its nonsensical name - do they mean mobile phone? - connoisseurs refer to Viñoly's masterpiece as the Upside Down Shard. This more accurately encapsulates the building's true genius, its decorum, its sensitivity to London's ever-evolving skyline. Sure, The Shard is rubbish, an eyesore, a sketch-on-the-back-of-a-napkin joke, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be respected by other, more serious and accomplished structures. The mark of good architecture as we all know, is how well a new addition treats what is already there. It is why, after 123 years, the Eiffel Tower is still so unloved.
London has always been famous for its beautiful buildings, especially the keynotes that distinguish top cities from brash wannabes, the kind that dare challenge London's rightful supremacy as an air-transport hub or as a financial centre. Take Heathrow. Easily the finest, most aesthetically pleasing, well-organised airport you are likely ever to use. Or Buckingham Palace - rightly acknowledged as the most beautiful palace in the world.
I've already name-checked the Orbit for its excellence, but let's just bask a little longer in the knowledge that London has something truly special here - the most beautiful visitor attraction made out of steel and painted that particular red the world has ever known. I forget the name of the two genius blokes who invented it, but to come up with the idea of a disembodied tied shoelace and then build it for just £20 million only goes to show that London's title of being the most creative city in the world will remain unchallenged for years.
London is great at old religious buildings too. St Paul's, as experts will confirm, holds two world titles: the most beautiful domed structure on the planet that can be seen from Peckham's multi-storey car park without anything blocking your view (not even the Strata) and the most reasonably priced temple of any kind open to the public in any of the great world cities.
It's hard to believe it is only £15 to get in. No doubt that price will rise when the latest wave of new towers, including the amazing Helter Skelter due to sit alongside Fosters' forgettable Gherkin, are complete. As well as making the skyline even more beautiful they will affirm London's status as the best world city in the world once and for all. I think that's called a win-win, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore and the rest… Deal with it.
With apologies to Rowan Moore, whose piece on the same subject was published in 'The Observer' last Sunday.

SYDNEY — A boat carrying a group of radical anti-whaling activists collided with a Japanese whaling vessel in the Antarctic Ocean on Friday in a clash Japan condemned as "unforgivable." No one was injured.
Activist Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society said his boat was trying to prevent a Japanese ship from dragging a whale on board when another Japanese boat shot in front of Watson's vessel, causing a collision.
"The situation down here is getting very, very chaotic and very aggressive," Watson told The Associated Press by satellite phone from his boat, named after the late Australian conservationist and TV personality, Steve Irwin.
U.S. & World
In a statement, the Institute of Cetacean Research — the Japanese government-affiliated organization that oversees the hunt — condemned the protesters' actions, characterizing the collision as a "deliberate ramming" that occurred while the Japanese were trying to load a whale on board one of their ships.
Shigeki Takaya, a Fisheries Agency spokesman for whaling in Japan, called the incident "appalling and unforgivable."
"We will ask concerning countries, including Australia, to immediately stop them from carrying out such horrendous acts," Takaya said.
Japan plans to harvest up to 935 minke whales and 50 fin whales this season. Under International Whaling Commission rules, the mammals may be killed for research but not for commercial purposes. Opponents say the Japanese research expeditions are simply a cover for commercial whaling, which was banned in 1986.
Chiharu Tsuruoka, a Foreign Ministry official in Japan, called Friday's incident between Japan's whalers and the Dutch-registered Steve Irwin "extremely unforgivable."
"We have repeatedly asked the Dutch government to stop them from harassing us, but so far it's been so unsuccessful," Tsuruoka said.
The protesters set off from Australia in early December for the remote and icy Antarctic Ocean, chasing the whaling fleet for about 2,000 miles (3,200 kilometers) before stopping two weeks ago in Tasmania to refuel. The group found the whalers again on Sunday and resumed their pursuit.

Former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. engages in some wishful thinking about the political leanings of the American Jewish community ("Can Jews be sure of Obama's commitment to Israel?" Sept. 2).
American Jews are the most consistently liberal religious group in the U.S. and have voted solidly Democratic for decades. While President Barack Obama's share of the Jewish vote may decline slightly from the 74 percent he received in 2008, all indicators suggest that he is likely to garner close to the 70 percent on average they have given to Democratic presidential candidates since 1972. Any small decrease will reflect mostly the same domestic factors affecting the overall vote, as opposed to some disproportionate disaffection within the Jewish community.
Nor should anyone pin their hopes on a massive switch based on the president's policies toward Israel. He has been highly supportive of Israel, as numerous high-ranking Israelis have noted publicly. Polling over the last two elections shows that a mere 8 percent of American Jews make voting decisions based on a candidate's Israel policy, making the myth of a single-issue voting block simply that, a myth. Furthermore, 80 percent of American Jews believe that the U.S. should take an active role in resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict by means of a negotiated two-state solution. If Jews did vote on Israel policy alone, polls suggest that the community would be looking for candidates to show bold leadership on that issue.
In short, efforts by Mr. Ehrlich and others to turn Israel into a partisan wedge issue in this election cycle misrepresent the interests and the desires of the vast majority of American Jewish voters.

Canyon Springs comment period extended 5 days
TRUCKEE, Calif. – Those wanting to comment on the draft Environmental Impact Report for the proposed Canyon Springs residential neighborhood development near Glenshire will now have until March 6.
The original cutoff date was March 1 – now giving the public a total of 78 days to send in environmental analysis questions and concerns.
The initial CD version of the draft EIR distributed by the town did not include all the technical appendices, so a five-day extension was given to "ensure everyone had adequate review time," said John McLaughlin, community development director for the town of Truckee.
According to the town's website, seven public comments on the draft EIR have been submitted as of Tuesday afternoon.
"Most people submit their comments the last day or a few days before the end of the comment period," said Denyelle Nishimori, senior planner for the town.
After March 6, a final EIR will be prepared, which responds to comments received on the environmental analysis and possibly includes revisions to the draft report.
A digital copy of the draft EIR can be accessed via the following shortened web link: http://bit.ly/WKFn7W – people can email comments to email@example.com.

WALTHAM, Mass. – The Brandeis University baseball team will not carry a winning streak into next season, as the Judges dropped a 7-5 decision to UMass Dartmouth on their senior day. The Judges, who had won five in a row and were searching for their longest winning streak since 2003, end the season at 15-21, while the Corsairs improve to 13-19 headed into their Little East finale this weekend.
Both teams banged out 11 hits, but UMass Dartmouth was able to bunch theirs together, scoring all seven of their runs in two innings. The big blows in a three-run second were an RBI double by sophomore SS Nate Farias (Fall River, Mass./Durfee), followed two pitches later by a two-run home run to left field by senior DH Tyler White (Westport, Mass./Westport), his fourth of the season.
Brandeis responded by scoring the game's next four runs. Three straight singles, the last two coming on perfectly execute hit-and-runs, culminated win an RBI for senior 3B Pat Seaward (York, Maine/York) in the second. In the third, the first two Judges reached on a single and catcher's interference, with a bunt moving them into scoring position. Junior Dan Gad (Mansfield, Mass./Mansfield) brought home one run with a grounder to second, while junior SS Dominic Schwartz (San Francisco, Calif./Lowell) bounced one through the left side to tie the game at 3-3.
UMass Dartmouth was in position to take the lead back in the top of the fourth when the first two hitters reached on an error and a single. But with the runners going on a 1-1 pitch, rookie 2B Taylor Cacciola (W. Greenwich, R.I.) lined hard to Brandeis's Max Hart (Montville, Conn./Montville) in right field. With both runners already at the next base, Hart fired to first-baseman Kyle Brenner (Brookfield, Mass./St. Peter-Marian) for the second out, while Schwartz was at second to complete the triple play, the 15th in Division III this season.
The Judges used the momentum to take their first lead in the bottom of the fourth. Hart led off with a single, and senior catcher Chris Ferro (Walpole, Mass./Walpole) reached on a fielder's choice. Ferro stole second and scored on rookie CF Liam O'Connor's (Avon, Conn./Avon) single to right.
UMD took the game in the top of the sixth, when they scored four times on four hits. The Corsairs also drew two walks and were hit by a pitch in the frame. The first three hitters reached, with sophomore Luke Bomback (Swansea, Mass./Case) singling through the left side, with a booted ball in left allowing a second run to score on the play. White added his third RBI of the game to plate Bomback with what would prove to be the winning run, while sophomore 3B George Aggostini (Dighton, Mass./Dighton Rehoboth) added an insurance RBI to make it 7-4.
Brandeis added a run in the seventh with Brenner led off with a double to right and scored two batters later on sophomore 2B Tom McCarthy's (Yonkers, N.Y./Fieldston School) single to center. Schwartz drew a four-pitch walk to put the tying runs on base, but McCarthy was gunned down at third as the pair tried to execute a double steal on a pitch in the dirt. The Judges had runners on in the eighth and ninth, but UMD turned a double play the first time and a two-out single by Gad proved fruitless in the ninth.
For Brandeis, O'Connor was the big hitter, going 3-4 with an RBI, a run scored and a double McCarthy and Schwartz each added two hits. Senior Dylan Britton (Poughquag, N.Y./Arlington) suffered the loss, going 5.2 innings and allowing eight hits and seven earned runs. He struck out six and walked three, falling to 4-5 on the season. Brandeis seniors Jesse Link (Weston, Conn./Weston) and Stefan Weiss (Jericho, N.Y./Jericho) were effective out of the bullpen in their final games, striking out four in 2.1 innings of shutout ball. Brenner pitched a 1-2-3 ninth.
UMD was paced by White, who was 3-4 with three RBI, two runs scored and a home run. Aggostini not only went 2-5 with an RBI, he also pitched a scoreless ninth inning for the save. The Corsairs used their whole pitching staff, with only one hurler going more than one inning. Rookie Paul Mahoney (No. Andover, Mass./Whittier Tech) earned his first collegiate win with a scoreless fifth inning, issuing a walk and a strikeout.
The game marked the final appearance for Brandeis seniors Britton, Link, Weiss, Ferro, Seaward and Nick Cortese (Guaynabo, P.R./Baldwin School of Puerto Rico); Mike Swerdloff (Scarsdale, N.Y./Ardsley) was the starting pitcher in yesterday's contest.

Liberty News
Liberty named finalist for excellence in social media award
Liberty University was recently named a finalist for a Shorty Award in the "Best BN (Barnes & Noble) College in Social Media" category, the only one that recognizes colleges or universities for their social media efforts.
The Shorty Awards, now in their fifth year, are the first and most prestigious awards for social media.
The winner will be announced April 8 during the Shorty Award Ceremony, which will be streamed live from New York City.
Liberty was also named the Vox Populi winner as the finalist receiving the most votes. All votes were placed on Twitter. Nearly 200 schools received votes in this category, which is sponsored by Barnes & Noble.
Thanks to a strategic social media campaign, Liberty soared from sixth to first place in the voting in a matter of hours on Feb. 16. Voting closed on Feb. 18 with Liberty in a commanding lead for first place with 533 votes. West Virginia University was the nearest competitor with 331 votes, followed by the University of Mississippi with 319.
Greg Galant, founder of the Shorty Awards and CEO of Sawhorse Media, said it is exciting to see colleges and universities making social media a priority. Having a strong social media presence gives organizations a competitive edge in reaching their target audience.
"That is how you reach people now," he said. "There is unprecedented opportunity to communicate with people directly … it is really the new way of getting information out there."
|Liberty students utilize social media while enjoying the atmosphere at the Liberty University Barnes & Noble Bookstore.
Galant said the awards were created because social media has become as influential as any other media source.
"What happens in social media affects culture as much as what happens in the movies or in music or on Broadway, so (social media) should really have an award ceremony of the same stature," Galant said.
It is more challenging, however, to give awards for social media rather than a movie or magazine because of how large the pool can be, he said. With billions of users on social media, it is impossible for a panel of judges to sort through them all. This is why nominations for Shorty Awards begin with votes via Twitter. Anyone can be nominated for an award but only the top six in each category are selected as finalists.
After the finalists are chosen, they are reviewed and judged by the Real-Time Academy of Short Form Arts & Sciences. The academy is made up of leaders in technology, journalism, business, and culture.
There are nearly 75 categories for Shorty Awards, ranging from best charity account in social media to best humor account, best fake account, and best small business in social media.
The Shortys originally recognized excellence in Twitter efforts only, but have since expanded to include all major social media outlets, including YouTube, Instagram, Foursquare, and Pinterest.
In just five years, the Shortys have exploded in influence and popularity. Within 24 hours of the site launching in 2008, the Shorty Awards were the top trending term on Twitter — where it remained for two months, even topping Christmas during the month of December.
The Shorty Awards website has millions of viewers and Twitter nominations each year. The average person who votes in the Shorty Awards is 26 times more influential than the average Twitter user, which, Galant said, has a "ripple effect" on the Shortys' influence.
"We are not just reaching people, we are getting the most influential people in social media to participate," he said.
Liberty utilizes a variety of social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Google Plus, YouTube, and Foursquare, providing everyone with a way to interact in a digital community. With nearly 100,000 likes on Facebook and more than 20,000 Twitter followers, more digital interactions are taking place every day.
The Liberty family, with nearly 100,000 residential and online students and almost 85,000 alumni, also stays connected through the university's official mobile app, Liberty Today. The free app includes breaking news, athletics updates, photos, media, event information, live streaming from the Liberty Channel and 90.9 The Light, and a digital version of the Liberty Journal.

Don't trust your long distance move to just any old company. If you're making a move across the country, you need professionals on your team to help handle the logistics. Moving in Jacksonville, Florida isn't easy as you thought it would be. During a time that is undoubtedly already hectic, trusting your move to the experts.
When relocating and hiring a moving company to take you across the country to another state, there are five things you shouldn't do. Some of them might seem obvious, but something as simple as having a pen and paper ready to check off items as they're unloaded from the truck will save you a lot of time and aggravation later on.
That's a common question, because the moving services most people use when they relocate are either the DIY, "rent a truck and drive it yourself" variety, or the traditional type of long distance moving services in which your belongings may be added to another scheduled move depending on the moving company's schedule. Long distance moving can be complicated. That doesn't mean it should be stressful.
Additionally, you can view your rights as a customer of a long-distance moving company. It is important that you can distinguish reputable Moving Companies in 32202 from fraudulent or "rogue" movers who have been known for holding personal property hostage for additional fees and other scams.
There are a lot of places to buy packing supplies, but boxes and tape can add up to quite a bit of money. You can avoid this additional cost by hitting up one of quite a few places handing out free boxes. Most retailers receive a lot of shipments, but your best bet is to contact furniture stores.
Have a yard sale or garage sale and get rid of unused or unwanted items. Assign a different color duct tape to each room, so the boxes are more accessible to identify. Pack a clear "First Day Essentials" bin filled with the things you'll need most as soon as you arrive at your new home.
What Not to Do When Hiring Moving Companies For Long Distance in Jacksonville, Florida
Many people might not even know where, to begin with, the packing, but relax: Packing a pod for a long distance or interstate move is more comfortable in some ways because you can usually take more time to pack, and can wrap it with the unloading process in mind. Once the container is packed up and picked up, it stays securely closed and locked until it's at your destination and you're ready to unpack it.
Cities we serve near in 32202:
- Springfield
- Brooklyn
- San Marco
- South Jacksonville
- College Park
- Brentwood
- Saint Nicholas
- Riverside
- Talleyrand
- Philips
Use plastic wrap or paper and tape to wrap silverware trays. This keeps all your flatware together and makes unpacking a breeze! Use large Ziploc bags to keep kitchen and bathroom drawer things together. It's so much easier to empty when all the small drawer items are together!
Best Moving Companies in Jacksonville
Pack spices in a large slow cooker or pot to save space. This tip can be applied towards any large item like baskets, trash cans, etc. Fill up their space with smaller items. Use cardboard dish pack partitions to pack breakables. They are perfect to insert inside moving boxes and protect glass cups and dishes from breaking.
If there are any boxes or items missing, don't sign the paperwork. The move must be completed before you sign. Once you sign that you've received everything, it's hard to go back to the company to say that something is missing. Count the boxes and recount them, making sure you conduct a home inventory.
While this is true for all moves, long distance Movers For Long Distance in Duval County, Florida is even more tricky. Make sure you read everything thoroughly and ask questions when you need clarification. If you see a list of additional fees, ask the mover to explain what each means and how they apply to your move.
Long Distance Moving Tips in Jacksonville, Florida
Important items, such as your passport, accounting records, school records, jewelry or other things that are critical, should be carried with you, not with the mover. Check out a complete list of what not to pack such essential items aren't lost during the move and things that shouldn't be packed, aren't.
It is where unpacking after a move and doing it quickly is essential. Often, open every box first to make sure nothing has been damaged during the move before fully unpacking. The longer you wait to make a claim, the less likely it is that your claim will be accepted.
No loose items remain on top of dressers or shelves, at the backs of closets, or under the beds. If appliances are going, they've been disconnected, thawed, and emptied of contents. Items not going to the new home are either isolated in a particular room or corner of a place, or they're labeled with a brightly colored sticky note or piece of paper. Pack boxes firmly from bottom to the very top both to prevent the contents from shifting during your move and to prevent the box from crushing underweight.
