A Night in Old Union Station
Some folks say it's not a good idea to live in the past. We say it can be fun, especially if it involves dressing up like a World War I doughboy, a flapper or an early-day senator to help raise money to help preserve a landmark like Denver's Union Station.
A Night in Old Union Station, hosted by Union Station Advocates, brought 800 history buffs to the train station in Lower Downtown for a party that raised $100,000 for the restoration and reinstallation of the Mizpah Arch, a 70-ton, bronze-coated steel gateway that was dedicated on July 4, 1906, and stood outside Union Station for 25 years before being deemed a traffic hazard and taken down on Dec. 7, 1931.
Dana Crawford, whose foresight and perseverance turned crumbling and neglected areas of the city into the vibrant Larimer Square and Lower Downtown we enjoy today, chairs Union Station Advocates and with co-chair Anne Hayes, had a major hand in making the benefit a success.
The 800-plus guests included Mayor John Hickenlooper; Colorado Historical Society president Ed Nichols; Tami Door and Jerry Glick from the Downtown Denver Partnership; and Amy Morrison, who not only helped get the word out about the benefit but purchased the first two tables.
Period attire was encouraged, and guests seemed to embrace the idea of researching and assembling outfits that would take them back in time.
Ayme Austin wore the same gown she had worn to her 1920s-themed wedding in 2005; Wendy Weil (her husband Steve's Rockmount Ranch Wear has been in LoDo since 1946) did Internet research to ensure each element of her flapper ensemble was true to the era; and Aylene McCallum took a more relaxed approach. "I'm a modern flapper," she said. "I'm not really sure where all the parts are from. But they seem to work."
John Steinle dressed as Henry Teller, who represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate from 1876 to 1909, and Sven Hillring wore a replica of a World War I uniform. Hillring's wife, Susan, chose an American Red Cross uniform from 1917.
Nearly everyone at the party had been to Union Station before, but the grandeur of the structure's interior still brought sighs and long looks. "It's a wonderful building," said historical society chief Nicholson. "It transports you back 40 years — to my prime!"
Judi Wagner, who'd been a history major in college, was equally smitten. "Cities just have to hold onto treasures like this," she said.
The evening included a walkabout supper featuring food from such neighborhood eateries as Bistro Vendome, Gumbo's Louisiana Style Cafe, Jax Fish House, Kevin Taylor Restaurant Group, McCormick's Fish House & Bar, Morton's, Sullivan's Vesta Dipping Grill, Wazee Supper Club and the Denver ChopHouse. Music was by Mistura Fina Jazz Band, Otone Brass Band, Eohippus Jazz Band and the Denver Municipal Band Quintet.
Service was provided by the Metropolitan State College hospitality department; the colors were presented by members of the Colorado National Guard, and members of the Wheelmen Bicycle Club added to the atmosphere by riding vintage penny farthing bikes through the station's great hall.
Evan and Evi Makovsky (his Shames Makovsky Realty Co. was a major sponsor of the event) were among the guests, joining a crowd that also included Walter Isenberg; Steve Farber; Bill Mosher; Susan Stanton; David Ehrlich; Newell and Judy Grant; Dee Chirafisi; Judy Joseph; Skip and Jane Netzorg; Lauren Lehman and John Kivimaki; Paula Grey; Tom Noel; Donna Crafton; Georgia Gallagher; Jim Guttau; Andy Levy and his sister, Renee; and Gretchen Bunn.

I will admit, before 10 years ago I had never heard of Bolognese. In our house, like many other families, it was called Meat Sauce. It was my favorite version of "spaghetti." Most versions are basically browned ground beef with garlic and onions, then various canned tomatoes and dried Italian seasoning. Simple and good. Since then, I've been introduced to Bolognese. There are many different recipes for bolognese ranging from very simple with few ingredients to many with a slew of meats to create a very sophisticated flavor complex. My version is someplace in between. It is special, but simple - similar to the good ole Americanized "Meat Sauce," but with a couple more enhancements to add depth of flavor.
Pasta Bolognese
my version of a classic
1/4 pound of pancetta, diced
1 pound of ground beef
2 tablespoons of olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup of onion, small dice
1/4 cup of red wine
1 teaspoon of tried Italian herbs
2 bay leaves
1 large can of crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons of tomato paste
1/4 cup of cream
1/4 cup of parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1 pound of pasta
In a sauce pan, cook pancetta, rendering fat. When almost crispy, remove the pancetta and set it aside leaving the fat in the pan. Add the ground beef and cook it until it has browned. Add olive oil and onion, cook for 3 minutes then add garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, then add red wine. Cook for 3-5 minutes on medium until the onion has absorbed the wine. Add herbs, tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for 10 minutes until simmering. Lower heat and add cream. Cook for another 2-3 minutes at a low simmer. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
In the meantime, begin boiling a large pot of salted water. Cook pasta until it is almost done - be careful not to over cook it. Remove it from the water and place it directly in the saucepan. Stir to coat. Serve garnished with parmesan.

It will be interesting to see what happens to battery prices in 3 to 5 years once there is lots of BEV competition demanding lots of batteries. I guess we'll find out how supply-constrained the world really is re such batteries, when there is plenty of profit motive to produce them.

doesn't help if everyone has an EV and is trying to charge their powerwall from the grid at the same time does it? Not everyone has the potential to use the amount of solar energy required to power one (space required for panels, right exposure etc). Also currently (at least my understanding) is that powerwalls actually require more energy than they make available which is not good.
The issue isn't storage it is network capacity and I would be surprised if there is any city in the world that is ready for full on EV utilization. It requires some serious rethinking about power supply and power utilization.

i was thinking i might start posting our menu every week since i like reading other people's menus for ideas. i usually just list out 7 meals and then make them on any night i feel like it. i do my shopping on friday or saturday, so i'll list what we already had to eat on saturday and sunday.
saturday - corn zucchini lime pizza - this was really yummy!! oscar made a separate pizza - just for fun - with tomatoes and basil that he grew. he spread the dough out perfectly and had all the ingredients spaced evenly on top. i was seriously impressed! we were so wrapped up in pizza making that i forgot a veggie for a side dish.
sunday - greek frittata, roasted green beans, crusty bread - this frittata is amazing and easy, we love it.
monday - butternut squash and spicy sausage soup - i use an altered version of this recipe. i've mentioned it a couple times before - perhaps it's time i post an actual recipe.
tuesday - sweet potato burritos - these are yummy, i've made the two weeks in a row already. i add cheese and olives to the top along with the olive oil and cilantro.
wednesday - pizza and green beans - every week i ask oscar what he wants for dinner the next week and he usually tells me pizza and green beans (or broccoli.. or peas..). he understands that we have to have a vegetable with it and it gives me an easy cooking night, so i dont complain!
thursday - quesadillas - jeremy will be out of town and i have extra tortillas, so i'll probably make up some sort of quesadilla with what we have on hand.
friday - fluffy french toast with maple whipped cream (leftover cream from squash soup), eggs and cherries. we actually ate this last friday night. the sourdough bread i got on the discount cart needed to be eaten, and so did the cherries that i splurged on (mmm).
so that's our menu! i have a surplus of canned tuna - so if you have any recipes that use canned tuna, let me know!

Marcia Clark was originally not excited for "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story."
Can you blame her? The prosecutor for the infamous O.J. Simpson murder trial told Ellen DeGeneres her first thoughts on the miniseries were, "No! Oh please don't do this, oh please," she said on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" Thursday.
"I just didn't want to relive the nightmare of it," she said. "It was a horrible experience."
U.S. & World
Clark said she kept hoping something would go wrong with development. "There's a chance, it's Hollywood, things get canceled a lot," she said. And it's true, this miniseries was originally in development at Fox before going to FX with Ryan Murphy on board as an executive producer. Once Murphy got involved, Clark said she knew it was going to happen and be quality. Then Sarah Paulson was announced as playing her.
"I thought, 'Oh my god, it's such an honor.' She's such a phenomenal, brilliant talent," Clark said and conceded the show is pretty on point with what actually happened.
DeGeneres then surprised the attorney with tweets from fans decrying the way Clark was treated back in the 1990s during the trial. "Wow, I didn't know that," Clark said after hearing the tweets of support.
As for the whole relationship with Christopher Darden, well, she's still playing a bit coy. "It didn't seem that way to me," Clark said when DeGeneres said it appeared Darden had fallen in love with her. "We were really partners, we were trench mates. He wasn't my second chair. A lot of times when you prosecute you have a senior prosecutor and a junior prosecutor. It wasn't like that. We were co-counsel and he was my partner and it was really – I can't tell you how important it was to have him there," she said.
But what about making out? Click play on the video above to find out, and also hear about her last interaction with O.J. Simpson in Las Vegas after the 1995 murder trial.
"The Ellen DeGeneres Show" airs weekdays, check your local listings for times. "The People v. O.J. Simpson" airs Tuesdays, 10 p.m. on FX.

Large crowds and robust sales at consumer RV shows in the first month of 2013 give the industry positive news for the start of a new year.
Building on a third straight year of shipments growth, the industry is poised for continued recovery in 2013, the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) reported.
Across the country, RV shows are reporting high levels of attendance and strong business. This was the case at the Original Pittsburgh RV Show, organized by Rob Young.
"Our attendance was up 15% this year, and sales were up about 10% — and last year was a good year for dealers too," Young said. "This has been a record year for us both in attendance and amount of space sold."
This experience was shared by Joe Gonsalves, who runs the Northeast RV and Camping Show in Hartford, Conn. Gonsalves said he increased the size of his show by 10% this year, to account for increased demand from dealers and vendors.
"Attendance is up 13% this year," said Gonsalves. "And dealers are reporting more sales than in the past few years."
The RV show in Syracuse, N.Y., reported strong attendance and sales, as well. "Just from the start of this year — and the last quarter of 2012 — business has been booming for us," said Kevin Bostrom of Camping World, which runs the Syracuse show. "Shipments and sales are way up."
In Tennessee, the Knoxville RV Super Show drew more than 15,000 visitors."This year's show is much bigger due to last year's success," said show manager Rob Lynch. "We've got 30% more RVs and 15-20 more vendors. We've got everything from pop-up campers to half-million-dollar motorhomes."
The Florida RV SuperShow in Tampa saw attendance rise slightly from 2012 to 54,255 — a new record for the show. "We didn't knock the doors off, but it was better than last year," said Florida RV Trade Association (FRVTA) President Lance Wilson. "We were very pleased. No. 1, we want to make sure enough people are there, and No. 1B is we want manufacturers to sell products. In most cases, people did very well."
Similar reports emerged from shows in Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan. The 47th Annual Detroit Camper and RV Show saw record-breaking attendance with 21,000 attendees – a 13% rise over the last year's previous record.
"The attendance for this show was phenomenal and it's obvious the camping and outdoor lifestyle is growing," said Dave Rochette, owner of Westland Camping Center, in Westland, Mich. "Interests are across the board, ranging from the small, less-expensive models, to the larger, luxury models."
RVIA works to capitalize on the strong consumer enthusiasm for these shows with publicity efforts that target local media. This retail show publicity effort has resulted in show information and RV lifestyle stories published in Dayton, Ohio; Boston, Mass.; Grand Rapids, Mich.; Denver, Colo.; and South Bend, Ind.
Coverage has been positive with a focus on large crowds, strong sales and innovative products at an array of price points.

Engineering 'ghost' objects: A breakthrough in scattering illusion
A team at the NUS Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering led by Dr Qiu Cheng-Wei has come out with an optical device to "engineer" ghosts. When someone claims he has seen a ghost, the phenomenon may be caused by an optical illusion happening through a wild stroke of nature. But the actual engineering of such a phenomenon is the holy grail of researchers in the field of optical illusions, electromagnetic, and radar detection—not only because of the thrill and excitement of being able to create a "ghost" but because of the implications it will have in science and applications.
Their research has opened up a completely new avenue for cognitive deception through light-matter behaviour control. This would have wide applications in defence and security. Their findings will also pave the way for the design of new optical and microwave devices such as those for detection and communication. The team will further develop this technique to make larger microwave devices to achieve radar "ghosts" and aircraft camouflage suitable for defence purpose.
Dr Qiu's paper, entitled "Creation of Ghost Illusions Using Metamaterials in Wave Dynamics" will be published in Advanced Functional Materials in March 2013.
Their paper reported for the first time, the realisation of creating "ghosts" through optic scattering and metamaterials which are artificial materials designed with properties (which do not exist naturally) built-in. Their device is capable of creating more than one virtual "ghost" image from the actual object. The geometric shape, position and equivalent material properties of these "ghost" images can be pre-designed and controlled—and are also able to appear in distributed places away from the location of the real object.
Doing a David Copperfield
The scientific community has always been enthralled in the creation of an illusion which can potentially transform an actual perception into a pre-controlled perception. So far, scientists experimenting with metamaterials in "ghosting" do not have much success in changing the perception of the real object, and define where the "ghost" should appear. They can only create one "ghost", in the same location (as where the real object is).
But Dr Qiu's device can create multiple "ghosts". It can also make the real object or person "disappear". The researchers can also determine how the "ghosts" look, taking on a different shape or size from the actual object.
Added Dr Qiu, "As our work solves several major issues associated with "ghost" illusion, we believe it will pave way for future applications of advanced optical illusion, camouflage, and cloaking—in an interestingly new sense. Our work has enormous potential to enhance our ability to mould, harness, and perceive wave at will. I believe it can stimulate new thoughts of realising something extraordinary that is counter-intuitive."

Denise Costanzo, assistant professor in the Department of Architecture at Penn State, is the recipient of a 2014 Rome Prize Fellowship in Modern Italian Studies from the American Academy in Rome.
Her Rome Prize project proposal, "Eternal City, New Lessons: Architects at Modern Academies in Postwar Rome," asks what Rome meant to architects after World War II and how four international academies (the American, French, British, and Spanish Academies) responded to modernity and fulfilled new roles within Rome's Cold War cultural landscape.
Rome is a natural destination for aspiring architects, who have studied its classical monuments for centuries. "But after World War II, when modernism became the norm, academies could no longer just assume it was relevant. They had to reframe its value for architects, and each did so differently," Costanzo explains. Her project expands her earlier research into the postwar American Academy, when "an amazingly open-minded new director just let them discover the city's meaning for themselves," she adds. "He had faith that freedom, not rules and limits, would enrich their thinking and work."
The Rome Prize is awarded each year to about 30 emerging artists and scholars whose proposals are evaluated by committees in each field. The American Academy's Board of Trustees announced this year's recipients on April 10. Costanzo's fellowship includes an 11-month stay at the Academy and provides room and board, a stipend, and workspace. Its community includes fellows, residents (prominent figures invited for part of the year), and visiting artists and scholars.
Costanzo joins the ranks of top scholars and artists affiliated with the Academy. These include Penn State colleagues Anthony Cutler, Evan Pugh professor of art history, a former resident; James Wines, professor of architecture; Brian Curran, professor of art history; and Chris Counts, professor of landscape architecture, all of whom are Rome Prize Fellows. The academy's other famed architects include Louis Kahn, Robert Venturi, Richard Meier, and Glenn Murcutt. Its prominent architectural historians include James Ackerman, John Pinto and Diane Ghirardo.
"It feels overwhelming to see my name in connection with theirs," noted Costanzo. "The academy has a strong history of sponsoring gifted architects and great scholarship on Italian culture. It's an honor for my work to be part of that tradition."
Costanzo was a visiting scholar at the American Academy in the summer of 2013. Funded by a Penn State College of Arts and Architecture faculty research grant, she conducted preliminary research in the archives of each academy. It was also a brief sample of life there. "You're among so many enriching people—writers, scholars, sculptors, architects. I can't imagine what eleven months will be like." One pleasant surprise was meeting a classical scholar who was at the academy during the mid-1950s who was happy to share her own recollections with Costanzo.
Ever since studying in Italy as an undergraduate, Costanzo has been intrigued by its importance to American architectural culture. "Rome has obvious intrinsic value for architects," she notes. "But its importance is also a construct perpetuated by academies and other systems. It's not automatic."
When asked how she feels about joining an institution she analyzes, Costanzo chuckled and said, "We'll see! I hope I can stay objective, even as I enjoy all its amazing benefits." She continued, "I've been impressed by the Academy's support for this project. I'm scrutinizing a conflicted period in their past and the mythology sustaining their mission. But they've opened their archives without reservation."
Costanzo received a bachelor of environmental design from Texas A&M and her master of arts and doctorate degree from Penn State's Department of Art History. Her work has been published in the Journal of Architecture, Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome, and several edited volumes, and she has a forthcoming article in the Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians. Costanzo has delivered invited presentations at Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania, and shared her work at conferences in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Turkey. She is the recipient of a Stuckeman School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture Astorino Fellowship and a Department of Art History dissertation fellowship. Her first book, What Architecture Means: Connecting Ideas and Design, is due for publication by Routledge Press in 2015.

Niyc Pidgeon Series: Boost Your Self Belief
Welcome to the sixth and final article in my 6-part series. Up to now we have covered:
- The diamond of success
- Why vision is so important
- How to boost your motivation
- Why happiness is fundamental to your success
- The daily habits that will make you a better leader
Whilst this is the last in this series of articles, I'll be back on Thursday with a webinar for you that ties all of these topics together, and means you can get your questions answered in the live Q&A ill be hosting.
3 Ways To Develop Your Resilience And Boost Your Self Belief
Sometimes life can be challenging, and the same goes for business. It's never just plain sailing and we're sure to get a few curve balls thrown in along the way.
Stress happens to the best of us – it's how we deal with it and choose to bounce back from our adversities that counts.
Building a strong business means building a strong sense of self too, and knowing what to do when the going gets tough can really help you bulletproof things.
We study the concept of resilience in positive psychology as your ability to cope with whatever life throws at you – and we look at the ways you can cultivate more.
Resilient people tend to work through challenges by using their strengths, their personal resources that they have developed over time, as well as hope, optimism, and self efficacy – all of which are positive psychology concepts too.
As you develop more personal resources (the things that protect you from slipping in to a downwards spiral), you are able to tip the balance from stress, to success.
So you now know the importance of being resilient… the big question is, how do you do it?!
Here are my three suggestions:
If you have done something successfully once, you can do it successfully (and even better) again. When you reflect on past achievements and look at how far you have already come, it gives you the strength to keep going.
Consider a time when you felt really accomplished and successful in the past. Cast your mind back to how that felt, and bring that feeling inside of yourself right now.
Allow your focus to be on your strengths, and feel the feeling building inside of you as you remember how you felt when you felt that accomplished feeling. Maybe it was when you got up on stage to collect a recognition or promotion, or maybe it was something completely unrelated to Forever, that gives you that feel good inside.
As you connect in to your presence and power, you are able to feel what it feels like to hold that sense of accomplishment within you, and know that you will feel it again.
Choose A Growth Mindset
Your growth mindset is one that focuses on learning rather than failure, and it recognizes that everything you experience is sent to give you some sort of growth.
Even if your experience feels awful at the time, with perspective, you are able to choose to see things a different way. Ask yourself, "what is the lesson I can see here", and take a moment to consider your situation from a broader perspective.
When you let go of attachment to the drama of a situation, you are able to keep moving forwards along your path. In time, and as you practice, the time you get caught up in negativity will get less and less.
Where could you choose a growth mindset today? Think about one situation or experience that you have allowed yourself to hold on to negativity within. Look for the learning today and feel how you can shift into feeling stronger and more positive just from changing this simple element of your mindset.
Reaffirm Your Goals
By building belief in your goals, you build your confidence that you will succeed, and with this belief comes the knowing that things will turn our alright, no matter what twists and turns you encounter along the way.
Choose to remind yourself that everything is temporary, and that anything negative you are experiencing right now, will not be around forever.
You have a mission, and work to do and nothing is going to stand in your way of making it happen!
I want you to reaffirm your goals with a friend today – by sharing your intentions you open yourself up to receive support if times do get tough.
Make sure you're putting these steps in to action, keep focused on your long term vision, and remember that by working on your positive mental resources, you're able to tip that see-saw from stress in to success!

Left fielder Carlos Quentin had a nice game against the Mariners with 2 doubles and 2 RBI, but it still looks like he's in a lot of pain from the plantar faciitis in his left foot. Or, is Quentin's knee causing the discomfort? Maybe it's both.

We had a fairly chilled weekend this weekend just gone. I took a break from deadlines and hung out with some friends on Friday evening which was much needed. With a slightly fuzzy head on Saturday we decided to just stay local visit the park, explore in the wood and head home for naps and a lazy afternoon.
On Sunday I visited a vintage wholesalers and picked up a few bits for the shop (yep I'm sharing this time not just keeping for myself ;)) so I'll be adding those as soon as I have a spare minute! We had coffee/babyccino's at Bocca Bar which was the first time we had visited, it's a great space, I'm looking forward to returning and trying out their eggs benedict. Wilf took a few of his dinosaurs which came in the box of old toys my parents sent us, seriously this child has more toys than a playgroup these days! He's really gotten into imaginative play lately and uses his dinosaurs and plastic animals in various scenarios, I love hearing the little conversations he makes them have with each other.
After coffee we headed into town to meet family and grab a bite at the MShed before headed home for the afternoon. Lately I have been feeling utterly exhausted so I even napped on Saturday and Sunday when Wilf did. Maybe it was a sign as he has refused him nap ever since, I'm so not ready for him to drop them!
I've had a few questions lately about the camera and editing I use for my pictures. I actually upgraded from a Canon EOS 550D to a 700D last week, mainly because I want a DSLR that has video capacity too. I loved my 550 but I have to say you can really tell the difference in quality with the upgrade!
I use RedLab* to edit all my pictures :)

WASHINGTON, June 21 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama nominated James Comey as FBI director Friday, saying Comey will strike a balance between national security and civil liberties.
"This work of striking a balance between security but also making sure we are maintaining fidelity to those values that we cherish is a constant mission. That's who we are," Obama said when introducing his nominee to succeed Robert Mueller at the agency. "I'm confident that Jim will be a leader who understands how to keep America safe and stay true to our founding ideals no matter what the future may bring."
Obama said he was confident "our nation's security will be left in good hands" if the Senate confirms Comey for the 10-year assignment.
Comey said he was excited to return to the Justice Department and once again work with the "men and women who have devoted their lives to serving and protecting others."
"I must be out of my mind to be following Bob Mueller," he said.
"I don't know whether I can fill those shoes," Comey said, noting he would be "standing truly on the shoulders of a giant."
In bidding farewell to Mueller, Obama said, "I'll say it as clearly as I can: Countless Americans are alive today and our country is more secure because of the FBI's outstanding work under the leadership of Bob Mueller."
Mueller praised Obama's choice of Comey, calling him a "man of honesty, dedication and integrity."
Comey's "judgment and strong sense of duty will benefit not only the bureau but also the country as a whole," Mueller said.
Mueller became FBI director Sept. 4, 2001, a week before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He served two years longer than the traditional 10-year term for FBI directors. He oversaw the FBI's transformation into a domestic intelligence agency, seeking to prevent future terrorist attacks, from an agency focused on solving crimes.
"To know Jim Comey is also to know his fierce independence and his deep integrity. Like Bob he's that rarity in Washington sometimes. He doesn't care about politics, only cares about getting the job done," Obama said. "At key moments, when it's mattered most, he joined Bob in standing up for what he believed was right. He was prepared to give up a job he loved rather than be part of something he felt was fundamentally wrong.
"Jim understands in a time of crisis, we aren't judged solely by how many plots we disrupt or how many criminals we bring to justice. We're also judged by our commitment the Constitution that we swore to defend and to the values and civil liberties that we pledged to protect," Obama said.
A decade ago, Comey threatened to quit the Justice Department over electronic eavesdropping. The former George W. Bush administration deputy attorney general, along with Mueller, threatened to resign March 11, 2004, because of legal concerns about central aspects of the National Security Agency's domestic surveillance program, Comey told the Senate Judiciary Committee three years later.
Comey and Mueller's resignation threat -- in the face of fierce pressure from White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales to recertify the controversial program -- became moot the next day, when Bush overruled Card and Gonzales and agreed to make changes to the program's legal framework, Comey told the Senate panel May 15, 2007.
The issues Comey raised about NSA eavesdropping -- when he was appointed acting attorney general while Attorney General John Ashcroft was hospitalized for gallbladder surgery -- are likely to come up during his confirmation hearings, The New York Times said.
He is expected to be questioned about his views on the NSA's clandestine national security PRISM electronic surveillance program leaked to the news media this month.

Senior Alex Chi and the Crimson visit Dartmouth Oct. 30 (Harvard Athletic Communications).
PRINCETON, N.J. -- Scott Prozeller scored a goal in the first half to give the Harvard men's soccer team a 1-0 lead, but it was not enough, as the Crimson fell at No. 23 Princeton by a score of 2-1 Sunday evening at Roberts Stadium.
Before a nationally televised audience on ESPNU, Harvard goalkeeper Austin Harms made four saves for the Crimson, who falls to 4-5-5 and 1-1-2 in Ivy League play.
Princeton (9-3-1, 4-0-0 Ivy) earned the game's first scoring
chances, as Harms was forced to make a save on a shot by Benjamin
Burton in the opening stages and a chance by Antoine Hoppenot rang
off the crossbar. Following a television timeout, Princeton
was whistled for the second of back-to-back fouls just outside
their box. Prozeller stepped up for a free kick and ripped a
hard shot that bent to the left of goalkeeper Sean Lynch and inside
the post, putting Harvard ahead, 1-0, at 27:19.
In the second half, Princeton netted a goal off a free kick knot the game at 53:19. Teddy Schneider took the free kick, booting a pass from 45 yards out. Schneider found Josh Walburn at the top of the box, and Walburn headed the ball into the lower left side of the net. Less than three minutes later, the Tigers moved ahead, 2-1, when Hoppenot tried a bicycle kick. Hoppenot's shot went wide, but Matt Sanner redirected it past Harms at 55:50.
Harvard's lone shot on goal in the second half came in the 73rd
minute when Connor McCarthy
headed a shot on target, but Lynch was there to make the stop.
Princeton outshot Harvard by a 23-10 margin, including 16-8 in the
second half, while the Crimson earned all four of its corner kicks
in the final 45 minutes of action.
The Crimson returns to action at Dartmouth Saturday, Oct. 30 at 7 p.m.

World Series 2013 Game 3: Traveling to St. Louis brings nostalgia
ST. LOUIS — The Boston Red Sox and St. Louis Cardinals first met in the 1946 World Series. Twenty years before that, the Cardinals faced the New York Yankees in a Fall Classic that ended with Babe Ruth getting caught stealing second base for the final out of Game 7.
There are a few amazing things about that, beyond just the World Series ending on Ruth being caught stealing.
SPECTOR: Game 3: 8:07 ET; track it LIVE! | Cards even series | Game 2 recap
For one thing, Ruth was 1-for-1 with a homer and four walks in that game. The Cardinals did OK by pitching around a guy who slugged .900 in the series in order to pitch to Bob Meusel because Miller Huggins had Lou Gehrig bat fifth for some reason.
Gehrig had an OPS 127 points higher than Meusel during the 1926 season, and batted .348 in the World Series to Meusel's .238, so it's not like Huggins was playing the hot hand.
Imagine if the 24-hour news cycle existed then — Huggins would have been roasted.
Anyway, that's not the amazing thing that came to mind Saturday. It was that the 1926 World Series was played with the same schedule as the 2013 World Series — two games in the American League city, a day off, three games in the National League city, a day off and two more games in the American League city.
I had occasion to think about this because my travel for this World Series is a bit of a throwback. I flew to Chicago Friday, stayed there overnight and took a five-hour train ride to St. Louis the morning of Game 3.

This is fine for me, but I'm not a professional baseball player. Imagine playing two games, taking a train from New York to St. Louis, playing in the World Series the next day, playing two more games, and then another train ride and two more games.
There are obviously a lot of differences between rail travel in 2013 and 1926. When I read "The Little Engine That Could" to my daughter, I'm struck by the "parlor cars with soft arm-chairs" line, for instance.
Still, I don't know how old-time players stayed in any kind of shape. Ruth hit four home runs during that 1926 World Series. That's ridiculous in any era, but more so after thinking about the travel.
Or, maybe, I'm just struck by it because I feel my own body breaking down. I'm pretty sure I've got a nice case of plantar fasciitis going, and that bottom-of-the-body injury is matched up top by a toothache that I'm nearly certain is the precursor to a root canal. My foot doesn't hurt when I'm sitting, and my mouth doesn't hurt when I'm eating, so my No. 1 most self-destructive travel habit — eating ridiculously unhealthy things — is all the more appealing right now.
Friday, I got to eat at Lucky's in Chicago and enjoyed a pastrami sandwich with fries on it, which in the past I had mostly known as a Pittsburgh thing. Lucky's is down the block from Wrigley Field, which sits empty in late October once again.
I see Saturday how lively and draped in red the streets of downtown St. Louis are, and I know from having been here to cover hockey that the center of the city is not generally this active. It's one of the sleepiest downtowns I've ever seen.
Wrigleyville is vibrant and busy even on days when there is no baseball. It has a carnival atmosphere on game days for a lousy Cubs team. I can only imagine what it will be like two Octobers from now, if the prophecy of "Back to the Future 2" is to be believed.
Even if it's wrong about the Cubs, I do assume that teams and journalists alike will be able to travel for that World Series using hover technology.
It's a Saturday in St. Louis, so the Cardinals are wearing what are, no joke, the best alternate uniforms in baseball.— Jesse Spector (@jessespector) October 26, 2013

Cleaning and recoding NHANES II data are necessary before you can use NHANES II variables for your analyses. NHANES II data may need to be cleaned if there are missing data, skip patterns, or outliers in the dataset. Alternatively, you may need to recode data in order to define new variable values.
Task 1: Identify, Recode and Evaluate Missing Data
Missing values may distort your analysis results. You must evaluate the extent of missing data in your dataset to determine whether the data are useable without additional re-weighting for item non-response.
- Key Concepts about Missing Data in NHANES II
- How to Identify and Recode Missing Data in NHANES II
- Download Sample Code and Dataset
Task 2: Check for Skip Patterns and Explain How They Affect Results
The significance of a skip pattern depends on the question leading to the skip pattern, the questions within that skip pattern, and the variables you intend to analyze.
If you fail to check for skip patterns, you may obtain only a proportion of the population, instead of the entire study population.

Task 3: Check Distributions and Describe the Impact of Influential Outliers in NHANES II Analyses
Before you analyze your data, it is very important that you check the distribution and normality of the data and identify outliers for continuous variables.

Task 4: Recode Variables
Recoding is an important step for preparing an analytical dataset. You may want to recode variables to create new variables that fit your analytic needs.

I posted about my "geek toy squee" here earlier, but I never realized before how dangerous this gadget is nor why it is the number 1 bestseller at Amazon.com.
The thing with the Kindle is the instant gratification. Whereas before you may have thought, "Ooh! I really want to read that book. I guess I'll have to go to the bookstore/library/online store." Now it's "Ooh! I really want that book! *clickclick* And it's mine!"
I stumbled upon this recently when I decided to reread the Dark Tower series by Stephen King as I haven't yet read past Wizard and Glass and wanted to finish the whole thing. Then it hit me--I could read it RIGHT NOW on my Kindle! Click, click...ooh, shiny! This is dangerous for the bookworm and perhaps rather like a dream come true. I don't have to wait to get to a bookstore or library, I don't have to wait for mail delivery. I can get my book NOW!
How is this dangerous, you might ask? Well, eventually these books cost money, and I can definitely see how someone who may have only bought books once or twice a month--or less--can suddenly be buying a whole lot more. Especially given how fast I read.
Anyhow, just finished up book 1 of the Dark Tower series, now reading book 2. I love this series.

Watch the San Diego Chargers take on the Arizona Cardinals this Saturday on CBS 8 starting at 7 p.m.
SAN DIEGO (AP) - San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers didn't practice on Wednesday.
Chargers fans shouldn't hit the panic button. Rivers was just getting a veteran rest day from rookie coach Mike McCoy.
"I guess it is good and it is tough for me — I hate watching," Rivers said. "But it was good. You usually get one or so every training camp. We kind of mapped out and picked this day. I fought it for as long as I could."
The Chargers have been decimated by injuries this summer, and the sight of Rivers donning a baseball cap instead of a helmet during drills came with an unsettling feeling.
Rivers will lead the offense on Saturday night when the Chargers visit Arizona.
What's not as clear is how long Rivers will be under center. He played in just three series in last week's loss at Chicago.
The third exhibition game is the one when starters usually play longer.
The secretive McCoy is refusing to divulge how long his starters will play.
"I will let you know Saturday," McCoy said. "You guys asked me a couple of times but it is more of a gut feel of how we are doing, how things are going, what's the situation of the game.
"I don't want to say it's a half, it's this or that. I will have a gut feel on Saturday night of saying, 'Hey this is where I think we want to pull these players.'"
Rivers, who was sacked an AFC-high 49 times last year, was pushed around with regularity in his short stint in Chicago and was sacked three times.
So if the Chargers' revamped offensive line is putting McCoy's quarterback in harm's way, maybe his playing time will be compromised.
"We will see how it is going Saturday night and we will go from there," McCoy said.
Rivers, the football equivalent of a gym rat, always loves to play. That's what made sitting out Wednesday so challenging. But giving way to backup Charlie Whitehurst has some benefits.
"My arm has felt good all camp, but it was probably good to take a day off of throwing," Rivers said. "And I know it's good for Charlie to get in there and play with the guys he would be playing with if he gets in there. So it has a lot of positives."
But wasn't it like his teammates got to go out to recess and he didn't?
"It wasn't that bad," Rivers said, with a smile. "I'm still heavily involved as you can imagine."
How active some of the Chargers' mending players will be is a mystery. But it's clear rookie linebacker Manti Te'o won't play as he remains in a walking boot and hasn't practiced since spraining his right foot in the preseason opener.
McCoy won't say if defensive end Corey Liuget will play Saturday night. He was pulled from last week's game with a shoulder injury.
"You'll see on Saturday," McCoy said.

Hey guys,
I just got a new HT5-R to use as a practice amp and it worked great for about a week. I came home last night and plugged in, but couldn't get any sound. I've done all the troubleshooting steps I can think up, but still nothing. Here are the facts:
- The amp lights up completely
- The emulated output still works
- If I hook the speaker into the emulated output, I can get sound out of it, so I know the speaker connection is good
- Both tubes appear to be glowing
Any thoughts on the problem? Could a tube be bad even though it's glowing? I was very happy with this amp, so I'm hoping this is a fluke and not a statement of its quality.
New HT5-R - No Sound!

Umm, it's new. Take it back under warranty. Sounds to me like you've checked everything.

Hey, I'm new to this forum, but I thought I could help. You are not going to like this but the same thing happened to my HT5R head and the end result is that the service tech at Sweetwater determined the amp was unrepairable unless returned to the factory. The cause was " internal shorts on the board." When my amp fizzed and the speaker outs stopped working, I had just stepped on a Bad Monkey OD, and fizzzzz. that was all except for white noise static. I was able to coax SOME sound out of the external cab I had hooked up, but only if I cranked the amps gain and volumes. The output noise was harsh, gritty and very low volume. But like both of the posts before, the emulated out still worked on both channels. This is sounding more and more like a manufacturing defect or design flaw. I'm in the process of getting the replacement head from Sweetwater.aligowers wrote:ive got the the same problem ive tried the same thing and mines wont work either
cheers for the info mate i am not happy with the amp at all the tone was great but the more ive looked into this the more people i find with the same problem im going to get a refund and get something else i think. Only problem ive got is posting as i work 6 days a week. But defo wanting my money back on this amp.
Hi I have the problem. Left my amp on stand by for about an hour and when I went to use it again there was a burning smell in the room the headphones worked perfect but when I took it of standby nothing out of the speaker. Could get some sounds out of it only nasty sounds at full volume. Only had the amp since jan this year. Can I send it direct to black star uk as my dealer has no repair centre. I have ordered a12bh7 as the valve warranty is only 90 days but looking at this post my problems are greater than a valve. I just hope black star will repair it I only use it about 2 hours a week and have modded nothing. It looks like a common fault though And hope they will repair it. How long will the amp b gone for repair as it is only one I own. Thanks in advance

I'm having the same issue -- no sound from an HT-5RH except for a faint signal on the overdrive channel at full volume and full gain. The emulated out works fine.
...ironically, even the faint signal coming out of it sounds good too.
I sent Blackstar and Korg emails requesting a troubleshooting routine.
Hopefully, Blackstar will offer a fix for the issue, quickly.

This seems to be a very common fault you would think may be bs would sort this out and give some info as to why the resistors are burning out. R39 is the resistor which has gone on mine. Replaced today with a like for like but no change. Buzzed the circuit out from diagrams i found and all seems to be good so could be down to a bad tube which will arrive Tuesday so will try that. Should have sent it away as still in warranty but was reluctant to pay the carriage which will be at least 20 quid to have a 40p resistor replaced. Also did not want to pay to send it when valves are not covered after 90 days so if it was a bad tube bs would not do anything with it so would have been a waste of time. Hope i can get it sorted now i work for a defence avionics firm so we all know are electronics and i and my work mates will work this one out and will tell u the exact fault with this amp. I am not very happy at all the amp is 8 months old and has been used for a total of about 20hours very poor imo. Hope backstage recognise there is a problem and as i am not the only one with this problem the same resistors seem to keep going. The circuit is running to hot so will try a bigger watt resistor in its place. Sorry for if this does not make sense i have written it on my phone.

Re: "State high court upholds removal of CU's gun ban," March 6 news story.
As a University of Colorado student at the downtown campus, I would like to personally thank the members of the Colorado Supreme Court who voted to ensure that our constitutionally protected right to carry guns to school is preserved.
We're in the middle of midterms right now, and I can't think of anything I'd rather be focusing on than which of my fellow over-stressed, binge-drinking peers is carrying a concealed weapon into class with me. It was extra classy of them to correct this glaring Second Amendment violation on our campus before overturning the handgun ban in their own courtrooms.
Thanks for looking out for us kids!
Abraham Nowels, Centennial
This letter was published in the March 8 edition.
Those opposed to the Colorado Supreme Court ruling that overturns the University of Colorado regents and allows concealed carry always say that more guns on campus will result in more gun violence. We can look to Colorado State University, which has had concealed carry since 2003. There has been no increased gun violence there.
When only criminals have guns, there will be more gun violence, because they know there is no one there to stop them.
We will never know is how many incidents of gun violence at CSU were prevented because the criminals were in fear of who might be armed. But we do know that gun violence there certainly has not increased because of concealed carry.

Re: "Let each college decide on guns," March 6 editorial.
Your editorial regarding the Colorado Supreme Court's affirmation of the right of students to carry concealed weapons on campus with a concealed-carry permit mentions that the 2003 Concealed Carry Act should be revised to include universities. The reason is that it "would put this important school safety decisions where it belongs — with those who are intimately familiar with the school, its culture and student mix."
It doesn't matter how well the board of regents "knows the school." Nobody can predict the violent intentions of a lone wolf who decides to go on a shooting rampage. It's doubtful that the aforementioned individual will care about the university's policy on guns.
Zachary Goldman, Denver
This letter was published in the March 8 edition.
Your editorial falls short of the mark for common sense. The courts upheld the law — surprisingly not, in this case, electing to legislate from the bench. The facts around concealed-carry permit holders show that those who obtained permits are not irresponsibly committing crimes. Just one concealed-weapon holder in a classroom where a random criminal attempts to shoot the occupants could and would reduce the casualties, as they would either take out the offender or at least distract them while others managed to get distance from the shooter.
Jim Mapes, Northglenn
