[np_storybar title="Threat to Canada's economy — glass half-full or empty for Flaherty?" link="http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2012/11/19/matt-gurney-threat-to-canadas-economy-glass-half-full-or-empty-for-flaherty/"%5DA new report out from Canadian brokers saying that tighter mortgage rules are hitting the recovery gives Finance Minister Jim Flaherty the opportunity to ask himself that age-old question: Is the glass half full, or half empty?
New borrowing rules have hit homeowners so hard that it could undermine any economic recovery in Canada, says a new study from the country's mortgage brokers.
The Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals says since new rules went into effect in July, 2012, resale housing activity is 8% lower between August and October than a year earlier.
Among the changes instituted by the government was a lowering of allowable amortization from 30 years to 25 years for consumers borrowing with mortgage default insurance which is backed by the federal government. A longer amortization allows consumers to lower their monthly payment and qualify for a larger loan at the expense of paying more interest over their mortgage period.
My concern is that a policy-induced housing market downturn creates unnecessary risk that directly affects not just housing but job creation and the economy as a whole
CAAMP says 17% of the high ratio mortgages funded in 2010 would not qualify today, including 11% of prospective high ratio homebuyers who wouldn't qualify under the new 25-year amortization rule.
"This smaller number of first time buyers is already impacting the resale market, which in turn threatens to dampen economic activity more broadly," said the group, in a release.
Jim Murphy, chief executive of CAAMP said his group's survey of 2,000 Canadians shows the "vast majority" of mortgage holders are acting responsibly with their debt. "Our concern today is the number of growing first time buyers who are now unable to get a mortgage. We worry that this is having a dampening effect on what was an already cooling market and we hope policy makers will give some thought to addressing the needs of this key sector of the market," he said.
Will Dunning, chief economist for the group, said the downturn in the resale market could be an indicator of what's next for the market. "Since the government tightened mortgage accessibility for the fourth time this past July we've seen a drop in resale activity that I think foreshadows an overall decline in the housing market. My concern is that a policy-induced housing market downturn creates unnecessary risk that directly affects not just housing but job creation and the economy as a whole," he said.
CAAMP said the impact of first-time buyers can be felt throughout the market as move-up activity is curtailed because those potential buyers find it more difficult to sell their entry level homes.
The survey found it doesn't matter whether consumers take a 20, 30 or 40-year amortization — something available until three years ago — they end up paying off their mortgage in two-thirds of the time originally intended. Other findings show one-third of borrowers made additional or accelerated payments on their mortgage while 87% of homeowners have at least 25% equity in their homes.
Lower rates have been good for Canadians too. Of the respondents who renewed in the last year, 61% saw a reduction in their interest rate.

Fujikawa to make return to Cubs this week
Carrie Muskat is a reporter for MLB.com. She writes a blog, Muskat Ramblings, and you can follow her on Twitter @CarrieMuskat.
DENVER -- Kyuji Fujikawa joined the Cubs at Coors Field, and he is expected to be activated this week, possibly as early as Wednesday.
Fujikawa, 34, was limited to 12 games last season with the Cubs before he was sidelined with elbow problems, and he underwent Tommy John surgery last June.
In six rehab games at Triple-A Iowa, he gave up one run on five hits and one walk over six innings while striking out four. He's totaled 11 2/3 innings in Minor League rehab games with the Cubs' Rookie League team, Class A Kane County and Iowa, and has given up one earned run on seven hits and three walks.
"He came in today and said he's ready to go, however I want to use him," manager Rick Renteria said. "We'll try to find a spot that suits him the best."

New Tryout Presses Part of Planned VW Mexican Expansion
There are 0 comments | Post a comment
Friday, October 1, 2010
Volkswagen announced plans to invest another $1 billion over the next three years in its Puebla manufacturing complex. Included is the purchase of two Dieffenbacher tryout presses (16,000 and 25,000 kN models) for its tool-making department. The lower-tonnage model will include a 4000-kN four-point drawing cushion and a 3200-kN ram cushion. And, the bigger press will allow the plant to simulate mechanical production presses when trying out body dies.

Russian Thinkers
Penguin Books, 01.01.2008 - 412 Seiten
Required reading for fans of Tom Stoppard s The Coast of Utopia the landmark investigation into Russian history and thought
Few, if any, English-language critics have written as perceptively as Isaiah Berlin about Russian thought and culture. Russian Thinkers is his unique meditation on the impact that Russia s outstanding writers and philosophers had on its culture. In addition to Tolstoy s philosophy of history, which he addresses in his most famous essay, The Hedgehog and the Fox, Berlin considers the social and political circumstances that produced such men as Herzen, Bakunin, Turgenev, Belinsky, and others of the Russian intelligentsia, who made up, as Berlin describes, the largest single Russian contribution to social change in the world.

|Whomping Willow
|Species information
|Endemic to
|Related to
Thick trunk
Long and thin (deciduous plant)
Protection of a given location; offensive weapon
Extant (but very rare)
The Whomping Willow is a very valuable, very violent species of magical plant. Whomping Willows attack anyone and anything that comes within range of its branches. A deciduous plant, its limbs function as arms and any damage to them must be treated in much the same way.
Known Whomping WillowsEdit
The most famous Whomping Willow is the one planted on the grounds of Hogwarts. The Whomping Willow was planted around the year 1971 to disguise the opening of a secret passage leading from the Hogwarts grounds to the Shrieking Shack in the village of Hogsmeade. It had a small knot near the base. When that was pressed, the tree would become immobilised. This allowed Remus Lupin to travel unnoticed to and from the Shrieking Shack, where he was able to undergo his transformation as a werewolf in privacy.
In 1992, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley accidentally crashed the Weasleys' Flying Ford Anglia into the tree, seriously damaging it.In 1993, Harry Potter's Nimbus 2000 broomstick was destroyed when it fell from the air into the Whomping Willow's branches.
In 1994, Sirius Black, in his animagus form of a large black dog, dragged Ron Weasley into the secret passage beneath the Willow leading to Hogsmeade's Shrieking Shack. They were quickly followed by Harry and Hermione, then later by Lupin and Snape.
In 1998, Harry, Ron, and Hermione sneaked through the passage under the Willow to the Shrieking Shack during the Battle of Hogwarts. There, they witnessed Snape's murder by Lord Voldemort and his serpent, Nagini.

Dortmund leave it late in DFB Pokal
Borussia Dortmund needed extra time to see off 1860 Munich in the second round of the DFB Pokal 2-0.
The breakthrough came for the Bundesliga leaders in the 105th minute after 1860 midfielder Dominik Stahl brought down Marco Reus inside the area and was sent off, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sending Gabor Kiraly the wrong way with the resulting penalty.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan then added some gloss to the scoreline with a second moments later.

West Region: No. 5 Purdue (25-9) vs. No. 12 Northern Iowa (23-10)
When: Thursday, 2:30 p.m., EDT
Where: Rose Garden, Portland, Oregon
1) Consistently Decent. You hear all the time about how some programs are "consistently great," and others are mocked for being "consistently mediocre." Well, Purdue teams are consistently … decent, but rarely more. The most Big Ten titles in history—yet no Final Fours since 1980. Our last national title was 1932, with John Wooden shooting at peach baskets. And that infuriating trend has continued this season. A nationally televised, early-season matchup at home against Duke: a complete flop of a loss. Oh, but wait—a huge matchup with Michigan State in February? A blowout win. Two weeks later: a loss to Northwestern at home on senior night. Then a successful run to the Big Ten Tournament title. So who will we see in the NCAA Tournament? The overachieving, sky's-the-limit, 3-point-shooting, smothering defense Boilermakers? Or the unable-to-make-a-free-throw, ice-cold shooting, standing-around-on-offense, deer-in-headlights group? Rarely is there a team for whom neither a first round exit nor an Elite Eight appearance would be surprising, but that's what this Purdue squad is.
2) Boilermakers are supposed to be tough, but… ouch. All-Big Ten selection and Big Ten Tournament MVP Robbie Hummel has played all season with ... a broken back. Okay, okay, it's a hairline fracture of a vertebrate but it still sounds hellish. Chris Kramer, an in-your-pocket defender, had his nose broken violently by the wayward elbow of Michigan's Manny Harris in late January and only missed about four minutes of game action. Mainly because two other guys had the flu and freshman PG Lewis Jackson had a concussion. Sheesh. The Purdue football team takes fewer hits than this! (Insert your own joke here.)
3) We're goin' streakin! This team often starts three sophomores and a couple of juniors and only has two seniors who play significant minutes. Point is, they're still very young and, as such, are streaky as can be. On-fire stretches of three-point barrages are inexplicably followed by eight FG misses in a row. Obviously, if this happens at the wrong time, the party's over. The Boilermakers have had four winning streaks of four or more games this year—but only once have their losses not come in multiples. We all know how important guard play is in the NCAA tourney—in terms of being steady and less streaky—and the Boilermakers starting PG is a freshman. Whee! Please lower the bar and keep your hands inside the train. — Boiled Sports
1) Paper or Plastic? If you keep wondering why Northern Iowa sounds so familiar, it's because it's the alma mater of grocery bagboy turned Superbowl star Kurt Warner. And, in less exciting news, Detroit Lion Mike Furrey also spent time in Cedar Falls. Hey, they can't all be gems.
2) Ali, Boumaye! The player who secured UNI's position in the dance is Ali Farokhmanesh, a junior transfer from Kirkwood Community College. The 6' guard cooly stepped to the free throw line and knocked down two with six seconds on the clock, and the Panthers were going to the dance. Ali's teammates surrounded him and pounded him on the Farokhmanesh arching across the back of his jersey. OK, now that you have that image in your mind, take a look at Ali. Not exactly what you were expecting, eh?
3) The Dreaded O'Rear Admiral Farokhmanesh is not the only funny name on the UNI roster. They also have a 6'6" forward named Lucas O'Rear. O'Rear! Isn't that hilarious? Don't look at me that way. YOU try and find
three interesting factoids about Northern Iowa. — Eric Angevine (Storming The Floor)

But, malaria — even the million deaths a year caused by malaria greatly understate its impact. Over 200 million people at any one time are suffering from it. It means that you can't get the economies in these areas going because it just holds things back so much. Now, malaria is of course transmitted by mosquitoes. I brought some here, just so you could experience this. We'll let those roam around the auditorium a little bit. (Laughter) There's no reason only poor people should have the experience. (Laughter) (Applause) Those mosquitoes are not infected.TED saw a surge in Twitter activity around this talk and this tactic, which must have had more than a few audience members itching in their seats. And Gates isn't the only high-profile speaker to use a dynamic prop. Also among my favorites:
- Neuroeconomist Paul Zak sprayed the TED stage with oxytocin from a syringe while discussing the link between this hormone and feelings of trust and morality. Just a squirt, mind you; and
- At TEDMED, engineer and beat-boxer Nate Ball sat on stage while a laryngoscope was put down this throat to give the audience an up-close view of his vocal chords while he improvised a beat; an fMRI gave the audience a view of what the improvisation did to his brain at the same time.
- What's the desired effect on your listeners? Do you want to puzzle them--and keep the puzzle going till the end of your talk? Create the kind of uncomfortable suspense that worked in Gates's talk? Make an abstract concept like a hormone or an unseen thing like the back of your throat concrete? Think through the effect on your audience. I have to admit that seeing the laryngoscope go up Ball's nostril and into his throat made me shiver involuntarily at TEDMED; a physician next to me leaned over and said, "That doesn't hurt as much as it looks like it does." It's not a bad thing to make the audience uncomfortable if that's part of your plan and understanding.
- How recognizable is it? If you're wielding something that the audience doesn't recognize, you'll need to spend extra time in your presentation explaining it. Factor in extra time for the hard-to-discern prop, or consider whether you need it.
- Can you edit your use of the prop? By no means should you use more than one prop (unless you host a children's live-television show, that is). But even if you only have one, make sure it's not taking up all the time of your talk. That squirt of oxytocin took a moment, but conveyed a more palpable sense of the hormone, and the idea of spreading trust. Even the most elaborate prop in our examples--the laryngoscope--does not dominate the talk. Make sure you are not upstaged by your devices.
- Is it quick and easy to operate? Props require practice, in part to make sure they don't take up too much time. If your prop takes time and effort to operate, get a partner to help, or ditch the prop.
- What might go wrong? In Nate Ball's video, below, physician Charles Limb is enlisted to help with the demo. But as Limb describes, he discovered he wasn't licensed to perform a laryngoscopy in California, where TEDMED took place. Fortunately, a qualified physician from the state also was a speaker, and stepped in to help. Think through your own prop, its use and preparation, its travel needs and all the other things that can go wrong. How would you do the talk if it suddenly weren't available?
- What do setup and cleanup look like? If your prop explodes, breaks into pieces on purpose, sheds a liquid, or requires elaborate preparations to get it onstage, take the time to talk to the conference or talk organizer, audio-visual crew or stagehands well in advance. Can you get rehearsal time for a run-through with all hands on deck? Will you be distracted right before you begin speaking by an over-wrought setup?

Human Rights in South Africa by Jennifer Benn
I have always wanted to study Law at University, so joining the Human Rights Project was an easy choice for me as I thought it would help me gain insight and understanding into a field I have hoped to enter. I also wanted to benefit others along the way. Choosing a location to do my volunteering was difficult. South Africa however has always been high up on my list of places I wanted to visit, so when I saw it as an option I knew that that was where I wanted to go. I sat and read other people's stories for hours to get an insight into what the experience would be like and I knew it would be amazing even before I left my home country.
Arriving in South Africa
I was picked up at the airport after a couple of long flights from the UK, along with lots of other volunteers. We were taken to our host families and right from the start, everyone started talking and getting to know each other. This was really lovely. There was a mix of nationalities (British, French, German and Italian) so we all had a go at saying "hello" and asking a few questions in other people's languages which was fun!
On the drive we all went silent a couple of times to take in our surroundings. The townships are unlike anything I have seen before and the driver was happy to tell us some interesting facts about Cape Town throughout the journey. The mountains and scenery were amazing! You won't want to forget these sights, so make sure you take lots of photos!
My host family
I stayed with Faye and Aslam along with 24 other volunteers. Faye and Aslam were the best - so welcoming and kind! Faye offered us food whenever we wanted and there was an unlimited supply of tea which was perfect because we drank an endless amount! Everyone automatically became a family, we even called Faye "Momma", and she called us "her babies". This was perfect because when you're away from your family you need that loving family atmosphere around you. She spoilt us and was always there when we needed anything. After a long day out on the project, we would sit and chat with her about what we had been doing that day.
In the evenings after our placements we all ate dinner together, and the table was filled with an enormous amount of food and it was all delicious! I'm a vegetarian so I was a bit worried about the food because I know South Africa is famous for its meat, but I was given lots of yummy vegetarian foods that were just as good. After dinner, we would all sit and watch a film together, or sit outside and chat to each other as we drank more tea. Everyone got on so well, we had a laugh all the time!
My Human Rights placement
We had drivers who picked us up and dropped us off at the Projects Abroad Human Rights Office everyday which was handy. After an induction and being introduced to all the staff (who were very nice) we were given a real life murder case and split up into prosecution and defense by picking out of a hat. I picked Defense and there were six others on my team. We got a file full of forensic evidence, crime scene photos, witness statements etc. With all this information, we had to develop an argument using laws and evidence. It was hard; I'm not going to lie. At times it was really stressful, but this experience was so useful at giving us an example of the lives of real lawyers.
We also interviewed police detectives and victims of crimes which was very interesting. This helped us with our case as it was all related to gang-violence.
I was lucky enough to be in South Africa for Mandela day, so we did our volunteering at a children's center which was probably the most fun and rewarding thing we did. The kids are so positive, full of life and energetic, which is amazing to see considering the surroundings they live in and some of them coming from harrowing backgrounds.
At the end of my two week stay we had a moot court where we had to present our cases in front of the Projects Abroad staff and other volunteers, who voted guilty or not guilty. It was a unanimous "not guilty" vote which meant we had won! It was an amazing way to end my time at the South African Human Rights office.
Traveling around South Africa
Projects Abroad organized lots of activities for us to do after our placement like go-karting, hiking up Table Mountain, going to the cinema and a restaurant; we were never short of things to do!
This was my first time in Africa, so the weekend at the Garden Route was something I will never forget. Although it was an early start and a long drive, it couldn't have been more worth it. We went on a safari, paint-balling, quad-biking and we also visited the Cango Caves. The safari was so cool; I love animals, so seeing an elephant, giraffe and lion and them being right next to you, was just out of this world!
We stayed in an amazing house with a swimming pool and a pool table. All of the High School Special volunteers were together for this trip, so it was an excellent opportunity to meet even more people from the other projects. There were lots of markets and chances to go and have a browse and buy gifts for family back home.
Considering that it was July, it was the South African winter. During the day it was warmer than it is in the UK during summer, but at night it was freezing! My advice for you: pack fuzzy socks and warm hoodies for the evenings!
Overall experience
On the second to last day in South Africa, I realized that soon I was going home; that made me so sad as I was not ready to leave. On our last night we had a massive BBQ and everyone from all the different houses came together and my host mum was so generous and cooked us all lots of food. On the Saturday, when almost everyone was leaving, those of us who had an evening flight went to a weekend market called the Biscuit Mill which was amazing! There was so much food to choose from and clothes markets too. It was all pretty cheap, which was good because it meant our money went a long way.
Saying goodbye to everyone was horrible, but I promised to be back! My host mum even gave me a little gift which melted my heart. I couldn't say thank-you enough to her and all the Projects Abroad staff for making my time in South Africa the best it could possibly be. This trip helped me in so many ways to realize how lucky I am, and it made me want to do whatever I can to help those who don't have the basic things in life that they deserve. I'm already looking to come to South Africa again, but for a longer stay so I can really try and help make a positive difference in the Human Rights field in Cape Town, and take part in the most rewarding of social justice schemes.

Scientists expect to see the greatest effects of global warming in the Arctic. What, exactly, will these effects be?
Scientists expect to observe the greatest effects of global warming in the Arctic. But what, exactly, will these effects be?
Huge amounts of greenhouse gases are locked up in the frozen ground—and Earthwatch scientist Dr. Peter Kershaw is helping the world prepare for their release.
The permafrost—ground that remains below 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) for more than a year—that undergirds the Arctic is critical to understand. "With almost a quarter of the Earth's landmass affected by permafrost, there are dire implications for everything from pipelines to hydroelectric dams to coastal communities and transport corridors," says Dr. Kershaw. "Add to this the impact on northern ecology—enhanced nutrient cycling, tree line migration, polar bear den sites, etc.—and we have a very interesting story that will probably play out in our lifetime."
"I learn a lot from team members," says Dr. Kershaw. "Their insightful questions always give me pause and can force me to reconsider ideas I take for granted. I hear new things and am richer for the experience."
The feeling is mutual, as past team member Lisa A. reported on her blog about the Climate Change at the Arctic's Edge experience: "Thanks to Dr. Peter Kershaw for his patience, his wisdom, his knowledge, and his humour, all of which he readily and willingly shared with a bunch of teachers, who although greatly out of our element, quickly adapted and succeeded (hopefully) in furthering his global climate change research efforts."

Romney: GOP, conservatives 'have not lost our way'
- The 2012 GOP presidential nominee has kept a low profile since losing election
- Romney was viewed warily by conservatives in two White House bids
- More than a dozen 2016 White House hopefuls are speaking at conference
Mitt Romney returned to the stage where he once proclaimed himself "severely conservative" to thank thousands of activists for supporting his unsuccessful White House bid.
In remarks Friday to the Conservative Political Action Conference, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee touted the problem solving done by GOP governors such as Nikki Haley of South Carolina and expressed his optimism for the future of the conservative movement.
"It's fashionable in some circles to be pessimistic about America, about conservative solutions, about the Republican Party," he said. "I utterly reject pessimism. We may have lost Nov. 7, but we have not lost the country we love, and we have not lost our way."
STORY:Paul Ryan talks budget at CPAC
Romney told the audience, who enthusiastically stood and cheered as he came onstage, that he was "sorry" he would not be their president. "But I will be your co-worker, and I will stand shoulder to shoulder with you," he said. "In the end, we will win just as we have won before, and for the same reason: because our cause is right ... and just."
The event known as CPAC often shines the spotlight on the up-and-comers of the Republican Party and is a critical proving ground for presidential hopefuls. More than a dozen potential 2016 presidential candidates — including Sens. Marco Rubio and Rand Paul, Rep. Paul Ryan and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal — are all on this year's program and represent a new generation of Republican leaders.
The emergence of the GOP's new guard is part of what makes the speech by Romney, who turned 66 years old this week, interesting. The other is that during the former Massachusetts governor's two unsuccessful presidential campaigns, he was viewed warily by conservatives for his changing views on issues such as abortion.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, whose own presidential bid fizzled last year, got in a jab at his 2012 Republican rival during his CPAC remarks Thursday as he criticized the news media for suggesting the losing GOP presidential campaigns of 2008 and 2012 represented a defeat for conservatism.
MORE:NRA chief denounces background checks at CPAC
"That might be true if Republicans had actually nominated conservative candidates," said Perry, who is considering another White House bid in 2016.
Rubio and Paul both called for a new message from their party during their CPAC speeches — one that would attract younger and more diverse voters to the GOP fold. Rubio, who was considered as a possible Romney running mate, even implicitly criticized Romney's dismissal of 47% of the electorate when he said the nation doesn't have "too many people who want too much from government."
Romney acknowledged Friday he might not be the best person to give advice to Republicans because of his defeat in November, but he said he still wants to try to help expand the GOP tent.
"A conservative vision can attract a majority of Americans," he said, heralding the work of GOP governors such as Michigan's Rick Snyder. "They're winning elections but more importantly, they're solving problems."
Romney is no stranger to using CPAC as a venue to deliver major addresses. Last year's comment that he was "severely conservative" came as he was wrestling with Rick Santorum for the GOP nomination. In 2008, he chose to end his presidential campaign with a speech to CPAC.

For Immediate Release, June 25, 2012
Contact: Shaye Wolf, (415) 632-5301
Study: East Coast Sea Levels Rising Four Times Faster Than Global Average
Rising Waters Demonstrate Need to Cut Greenhouse Gas Pollution
SAN FRANCISCO— Sea levels on the East Coast are rising three to four times faster than the global average, putting several major U.S. cities at increased risk of flooding and storm surges, according to a new study by the U.S. Geological Survey. The findings were published in the journal Nature Climate Change.
The dramatic acceleration in sea-level rise, which is driven by climate change, poses an enormous threat to Boston, New York and other urban centers, as well as to coastal wetlands, beaches and other vulnerable ecosystems, according to scientists with the Center for Biological Diversity.
While scientific experts predict that global average sea levels will rise by 2 to 4 feet or more by 2100, sea levels along a 620-mile East Coast "hotspot" could increase by an additional foot, according to the USGS study.
"This is an alarming study that shows just how fast climate change is transforming our planet. The waters are rising, and it's time to stop making excuses and start controlling greenhouse gas pollution," says Shaye Wolf, climate science director at the Center, which has advocated for years for rapid, major cuts in greenhouse gas emissions. "To get sea-level rise under control, President Obama and our other leaders need to act now to reduce emissions and tackle global warming."
The study follows a report by the National Research Council that found California will be particularly hard-hit by rising seas on the West Coast, with sea levels expected to increase by as much as 1 foot in the next 20 years, 2 feet by 2050, and more than 5 feet by the end of the century.
Deep and rapid greenhouse gas cuts are needed in order to avoid the most extreme impacts of climate change, including damaging sea-level rise; the technology and legal tools to implement deep reductions are available today, with only political will absent. In the United States, the Clean Air Act is our leading tool for curbing greenhouse gases. For four decades, the Act's successful programs have reduced dangerous pollution, saving many thousands of lives and achieving major public-health gains while saving money and benefiting our economy.
The law is now under attack from polluters and their allies in Congress, and to date the EPA's implementation of the Act for greenhouse pollution has been too slow and tentative to address the urgency of the challenges we face.
More than two dozen cities across the United States have joined the Center's Clean Air Cities campaign urging President Obama and the EPA to use the Clean Air Act to address the global climate crisis and reduce carbon in our atmosphere to no more than 350 parts per million, the level needed to reach to avoid catastrophic climate change.
The Center for Biological Diversity is a national, nonprofit conservation organization with more than 375,000 members and online activists dedicated to the protection of endangered species and wild places.

Su Nuraxi is the best known archaeological site of Sardinia and it's undoubtedly a symbol of the whole island. Located in Barumini, a little town in the beautiful region of Marmilla, it was unearthed after 6 years of hard work in the '50s. Every year it's visited by thousands of tourists from around the world, fascinated by the imposing, the majesty and the mystery of this ancient fortress dating from the sixteenth a.c.
Sardinia is the second-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea (after Sicily). The area of Sardinia is 24,090 square kilometres (9,301 sq mi). The island is surrounded (clockwise from north) by the French island of Corsica, the Italian Peninsula, Tunisia and the Balearic Islands. Sardinia is a constitutional part of Italy, with a special statute of regional autonomy under the Italian Constitution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sardinia

How Cuomo can tame N.Y.
Although the results of Tuesday's elections undoubtedly circumscribe President Barack Obama's opportunities for the next two years, New York voters gave Gov.-elect Andrew Cuomo a clear mandate for fundamental reform.
Cuomo has not said that everything will change on Day One, but he did promise that, in four years, the public will know that state government is more honest, efficient and democratic. That is a big challenge, given the glacial speed at which change has come to New York state government. And tough economic times, which necessarily limit funding for experimental programs, make reform even more difficult.
Nevertheless, there is one action that Cuomo can take on Jan. 1 that would signal both his seriousness of purpose and his determination to succeed: appointing a constitutional commission, with 90 days to issue a preliminary report on how to bring state government into the 21st century. Its purpose would be to examine our government organization comprehensively, with an eye toward generating smart, innovative ideas to modernize and improve our 1938 charter.
Although it is the state Legislature or a formally elected constitutional convention, and then the voters, who have the actual power to revamp our constitution, such commissions have been used to study issues and make proposals since 1872.
Among the ideas a commission might recommend for adoption are a unified judiciary instead of multiple trial courts; a return to the attorney general having full jurisdiction over election and campaign finance law violations; a standardized electoral system rather than having voters cast ballots for various state and local offices at different times throughout the year; independent redistricting of the Legislature; a streamlining of state agencies, public authorities and other quasi-governmental entities; a more intelligent approach to income, sales and real property taxation; and a more productive and accountable approach to energy creation and delivery.
There are, of course, many other areas worthy of reform.
Consider, for example, New York's basic governmental structure: There are more than 10,000 government units, almost all with taxing authority, including 62 cities, 556 villages, 932 towns and thousands of special garbage, fire, water and library districts. Representative government and the delivery of basic services can obviously be more efficient. And no one can even agree on how many jurisdictions actually exist: the attorney general's office counted 10,521; the state Local Government Efficiency & Competitiveness Commission found "approximately" 11,764; and the comptroller's office's tally was 11,691.
No doubt many of these towns and villages are lovely places. Some refer to themselves, invitingly, as "Where Life Keeps Getting Better!" (Village of Webster); "A fine place to live. A good place to learn" (Town of Kirkwood); or "Little Town--Big Heart" (Town of Paris, not to be confused with the Village of Hilton: "The Little Village with the Big Heart"). The Village of Haverstraw trumpets itself with the slogan "The Time is Now." And the Village of East Rochester disregards technicalities by referring to itself as "The Best Little Town in the World ...."
Without stepping on the historical or political prerogatives of our unique towns and villages, a constitutional commission should consider how we might consolidate these many fine places so that taxes are reduced and government serves us better.
A commission should also look beyond New York for ideas. After all, while we New Yorkers like to think of ourselves as unique, many of our problems are not. So, for instance, we might learn from Maine's public campaign financing program; Michigan's reduction of state agencies by over 50 percent; or the partnership between Minnesota and Wisconsin to provide services to both states on a shared-cost basis. The National Governors Association has an impressive Center for Best Practices that tracks various states' efforts to downsize and redesign government.
There is, I should add, a legitimate concern that rewriting our state constitution could threaten basic rights embedded in our culture and law. Voters must ultimately weigh in on any change so commission proposals require public support if reform is going to occur.
Thus, Cuomo would be prudent to choose a panel that, beyond having the expertise and experience to craft a forward-looking constitution, is sufficiently reflective of our state's diverse population to garner public support for its proposals.
Creating this commission has the potential to unleash the intellectual, political and economic power of our state in new directions. In his campaign book, "The New NY Agenda," the governor-elect spoke favorably of such commissions. I hope he appoints one.
Jerry H. Goldfeder, former special counsel to Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, practices law at Stroock & Stroock & Lavan in Manhattan. He is the author of "Goldfeder's Modern Election Law," and teaches election law at Fordham Law School.

I'm reading a book (picture above) "How I lived on a pound a day written by Kath Kelly. It started as an impulsive idea, but then she wanted to test it for a whole year.
A friend of mine came over en gave me this book. 'It's something for you' He said. So I began this book with lots of curiosity and unbelief. How can you possible live on a pound a day?
I tried a couple of days to live on a pound a day, but it isn't easy. Kelly found washing-powder for 0,25 pound. The cheapest that I found here in Belgium was 2 euros. I could change my washing-powder in vinegar. It is available for less then 0,5 eurocent and you can use it for everything. Plus it's eco-friendly.
I will not test it for a whole year, but the book is inspiring and a little shocking to read.
I recommend this book to everyone. It gives you a new fresh view about how to spend your money.

Boot Camps to Continue as Popular Trend in 2009
SAN DIEGO — Boot camp-style workouts will remain the top fitness trend in 2009, according to a survey from the American Council on Exercise (ACE), San Diego. Boot camp-style workouts were also the most popular fitness trend in 2008. The annual survey of ACE's worldwide network of personal trainers, group fitness experts, advanced health and fitness specialists, and lifestyle and weight management consultants also noted that consumers would tighten their wallets when it comes to staying in shape in a struggling economy.
"The overarching theme for fitness in 2009 is getting more bang for the buck," says ACE's Chief Science Officer Cedric Bryant. "Consumers will engage in workouts that provide multiple benefits due to time and economic limitations. We will also see continued trends from 2008 including boot-camp style workouts, technology-based workouts, out-of-the-box programming and an increased interest in fitness for those who are over 50 years old."
Boot camp workouts remain popular because they provide a total-body workout that's varied, fun and challenging, according to ACE. Participants can burn up to 600 calories during a session. In addition to a cardiovascular workout, participants get a strength workout through high- and low-intensity exercises, such as pushups, squats and lunges.
With today's economy showing no signs of strengthening, more people will cut costs to stay in shape. Of the ACE-certified professionals surveyed, 48 percent said that gym memberships will decrease in 2009 and 52 percent said less people will hire personal trainers. Look for more people to use the resources around them as their gym and equipment.
While yoga and Pilates will remain strong, dance-based classes will be all the rage next year, the survey found. Zumba, a fitness program inspired by Latin dance, combines South American rhythms with cardiovascular exercise. Bollywood, ballroom, Afro-Cuban and other exotic dance styles are growing in popularity thanks to shows such as "Dancing with the Stars" and "So You Think You Can Dance."
Trainers will get back to the basics in 2009, according to the survey. Despite the fact that many exercises and equipment are becoming more advanced and trendy, trainers will continue to focus on basic movements and techniques with their clients again.
Studies have shown that interval training combining strength training and cardiovascular activity at different intensities provides a more time-efficient workout than participating in traditional aerobic and weight training sessions, according to ACE. With an increase in popularity of circuit training, many gyms are even setting up their own circuits to allow their members an easy path to fitness.
Kettlebell training is also increasing because it gets back to basic training that requires functional, whole body fitness, the survey found. Kettlebells require an individual to focus on whole-body conditioning because lifting and controlling a kettlebell forces the entire body, particularly the core, to contract as a group, simultaneously developing strength and stability. Kettlebell workouts engage multiple muscle groups, making it a great way to get a whole body workout in a relatively short period of time.
Individuals who are 50 years old and older have the means, motivation and desire to enhance their quality of life through physical activity—and they are only growing, which is why the Baby Boomer market will become even more important next year, according to the survey. The 50-plus audience continues to redefine expectations about age, vitality and life, and has highlighted the importance of physical activity as we age. Since September 2007, AARP's fitness initiative for boomers—aimed at providing a wide range of affordable fitness services to its 39 million members—has been going strong.
From iPods to Cardio Cinema to active gaming, the latest in technology will continue to infuse itself in all aspects of fitness, according to the survey. In 2009 more interactive video games will provide fitness benefits, as well as new inventions to make exercising a more engaging experience.
Despite the emergence of new and trendy workouts, sports or recreational activities will remain a popular way to stay in shape. Participating in a friendly game of basketball or volleyball, training for a marathon, or taking a day-long bike ride are just a few ways that people are staying in shape and having fun doing so!
Traditional programming is changing from what we called linear progression to undulating as research shows similar if not better results. For example, mixing low-intensity cardio with intervals on some days, and mixing high-volume, low-intensity weight training with low-volume, high-intensity training on alternate days.

While it was cool to see Eeth and Adi I think the tired plot of Grievous torturing Jedi and narrowly escaping while battling Kenobi is getting old.The second episode was probably the worst of the year IMO. My boys were actually bored...and so was I.
Quote from: Scott on January 2, 2010, 03:23 PMWhile it was cool to see Eeth and Adi I think the tired plot of Grievous torturing Jedi and narrowly escaping while battling Kenobi is getting old.The second episode was probably the worst of the year IMO. My boys were actually bored...and so was I. I couldn't disagree more on the second episode. I loved seeing a clone who felt differently and to see him even plant some seeds in Rex's mind.
I also think it was lame to have a single small rocket launcher blow up an AT-TE
While I'm not trying to make excuses for the rocket launcher taking out the AT-TE, in AOTC, if I remember correctly, a Hailfire droid fired some missiles out of it's missile rack that easily took out an AT-TE, who's to say that this isn't a scaled down version of the same warhead technology?
Also, keeping in mind that Darth Sidious is controlling both sides of the war, it's not like he's going to give either side's forces equipment that will be 100% resistant to enemy fire, if he made it so the Republic could kick the Seperatists asses, the war would have been over in months instead of years and then he'd have to come up with some other plot. He purposely wants the war to drag on and on so that the Jedi are blamed for the war dragging. So what if he puts armor on the AT-TE and then has warheads specifically developed that can penetrate that armor and sells them at an inflated cost to the Separatist Union? To take us even further down the rabbit hole, it could cost him X to make one of those missiles and instead he sells it for 10X to the Separatists and funnels the profit into developing better tech for the day when he finally allows the republic to "win" and he needs to have the forces at his disposal to maintain power/control.
My thinking on the AT TE is that it's somewhat similar to early Sherman's - very poorly armored. It has a glass cockpit, after all. The Republic/Empire eventually develops heavier, bigger walkers.
I think all it takes is him offing some Jedi...
Is Palpatine even involved in the development of equipment though? Again I'd think not, and that he wouldn't try balancing things like that...

WWE (formerly World Wrestling Entertainment) offers programming that reaches 600 million homes worldwide, including a U.S. television audience of 12 million per week, according to WWE. Along with 7,500 hours of TV per year, pay-per-view events, digital content, and consumer products from 130 licensees, WWE oversees a publishing program encompassing biographies, children's books, comic books, fitness guides, fiction, photo journals, and historical anthologies.
"Publishing is a very important piece of our consumer products business," says Casey Collins, executive v-p of consumer products. "It's a way to engage our fans of all ages, and it's an avenue to reach our young audience. It helps parents realize that we're a family-friendly brand." Twenty-three WWE books, almost half its total output since it began its publishing program in 1999, have appeared on the New York Times bestseller list.
Some of its key partners include Simon & Schuster, which has published 26 biographies of WWE Superstars, Divas, and Legends; Penguin, for picture books; and DK, for titles including a WWE encyclopedia—a second edition is coming out in November—and an anti-bullying book, A Most Mizerable Christmas by wrestler Mick Foley.
WWE has published eight books so far in 2012, with one more scheduled by year-end; 12 were released in 2011. Children's formats, mostly for boys 6–12, are a current focus, and even books targeting teens are family-friendly.
Books are often integrated into the WWE's multi-partner marketing initiatives. Penguin is advertising its latest children's books on the back panel of the videogame guide from interactive game publisher THQ, while DK's new encyclopedia is featured in a two-sided insert in a fourth-quarter WWE DVD.
In addition, DK's Mick Foley title will be part of two WWE social initiatives, the anti-bullying Be a Star campaign and the WrestleMania Reading Challenge. WWE and its wrestlers have more than 100 million followers on social media, according to Collins, providing another promotional platform. Going forward, WWE plans to expand into e-books in 2013.

Grimm is finally back this Friday. And we're so ready for the super sex-charged bro-down that is about to happen between the main character and his monster boss. But you don't have to wait until the end of this week to see more Germanic monsters. We spoke with show creators Jim Kouf and David Greenwalt about spilling fairy tale blood all over Portland and why they're obsessed with rehabbed baddies.
There are few spoilers about the last four episodes of Grimm in this interview.
What fairy tales are we going to see in the upcoming episodes?
David Greenwalt: You're going to see a Rumpelstiltskin type character who lives in a world of high tech video games.
Jim Kouf: A devilish kind of character.
Greenwalt: Almost like the real devil. He's not like any vessen we've seen before, he might be made of something like lava. A glowing character that's going to mistaken for an alien.
Kouf: A bad ass insecty type of character.
Greenwalt: The Sandman from the Sandman myth and fairy tale.
What are we going to learn about the royal family?
Greenwalt: Oh, we have bad things coming.
Kouf: We learn a little bit more about what they're up to. What some of the history is, and something they want very desperately — something they may in fact get by the end of the season, we're not sure.
You mentioned Rumpelstiltskin and the Sandman, how do you go about selecting which fairy tales to use where?
Kouf: We look for a great story, and see if there's a fairy tale that matches it, sometimes. Not all of our stories are from the Grimm fairy tales. There's fairy tales all around the world and myths. Our theory is that anyone who is writing these stories down is a version of the Grimms. These are real, true stories.
Greenwalt: We've had South African stories, one had a basis in a Hawaiian story. So we're all over the place.
Do you sit in the library and just start pulling books from the shelves or google "fairy tales" and "folklore" and just start reading until you've hit the 1,800th page in Google search archives?
Kouf: Or we just kind of make it up as we go. Or the thing you said that sounds the most productive.
Greenwalt: A little bit of this a little bit of that. A lot of it is [based around] a solid story idea and we add fairy tales to it.
There's been a recent disconnect between fairy tale movies and their audience. Jack the Giant Slayer the Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters movies haven't been performing as well as expected. But fairy tale shows like Once Upon a Time and Grimm have found an audience. Can talk about why it seems to work on television?
Greenwalt: I think the fairy tale movies are actually about fairy tales. They're trying to re-tell old fairy tales. We're not really trying to re-tell old fairy tales. We're taking fairy tale characters and twisting the hell out of it, and grounding everything in reality. All of our mythology is grounded in real history. We're trying to deal with what's really possible and giving you an explanation for what's really happening.
Kouf: In other words we're trying to explain these terrible crimes like in the pilot, who would steal a child? It's a way of explaining inexplicable things that happen in the real world. Which is what the fairy tales sought to do. We're more in the real world.
One of my favorite stories was the dark Cinderella and the organ harvesters episodes. These two episodes also happen to be crazy violent. So you get a lot of push back on the violence of this show from the network? And where do you get all these dark ideas from?
Greenwalt: It is surprisingly dark, but I hope it's surprisingly funny and entertaining at the same time. So that it helps people watch that darkness. The network — they really surprised us. Whenever we tried to hold back on something they would say "no no push that."
Kouf: You mentioned the Cinderella episode. We just took it one step forward, what happens after Cinderella gets married. The Organ Grinder — well, that was based on real organ harvesting. That was going on in the world.
Has there been anything you had to hold back on?
Kouf: We have to pull back on the blood that's all. They're fine with the stories.
Greenwalt: There might be an episode where some people are literally cut in half and there's some issues with how much of that we're going to show.
What is your attraction to misunderstood monsters or rehabbed baddies?
Kouf: Everybody has their own point of view. Bad guys are more interesting when they have a point of view.
Greenwalt: You could say that Monroe is even more human than some of the human characters because he is battling his "demons" and trying not to eat people and doing pilates and the vegan diet. He actually feels more human than some of the humans to me.
What are the difficulties of balancing the greater story arcs with the monster-the-week crimes? Game of Thrones gets to do all this stuff in 10 episodes. Do you find it harder to tell a story over 24?
Greenwalt: We like to tell a story over a long time because it's like a big, long novel. Or possibly a couple of novels. When we started the show we were a little more close-ended: here's the monster of the week, here's the crime. And we still continued that until the arcs of these characters built up so much that we kind of have to let the steam out of the pot. It's a few episodes a year that are what you might call the mythological episodes. Like on the X-Files when Mulder would contact an alien or confront an alien, and then the rest the show would focus on a cop seeing strange creatures.
A lot of attention has been paid to Rosalee's sick auntie. Is there more going on there than meets the eye?
Greenwalt: You gotta stay tuned, but she had to go away for a little bit.
Kouf: There's nothing going on with the Aunt, but there's something else going on there.
We were surprised but happy to see the return of Adalind. Are we going to be getting more from her in the upcoming episodes?
Greenwalt: Boy Howdy. You're not going to believe the things she gets up to in this back end and into the next season.
Kouf: It's so bad.
Greenwalt: She's so bad, and she has so much fun playing that part. And that character has so much fun ruining all these lives. She's a lot of fun to write.
Can we talk about the third season? Do you end the second season on a cliffhanger? What are your hopes for the new season?
Greenwalt: We don't have a third season yet, but when and if we get one — bigger, badder, more! And yes, you could call the ending a cliffhanger.
Kouf: If we don't bring it back people are going to be really pissed [because of the ending].

Information Sessions - Outside Chicago
Lunch and Learns
Behavioral science helps you lead by providing you with the technical and functional skills needed to navigate the challenges presented by a complex organization. You will focus on learning how people use information and make decisions, as well as how they develop and use human capital to make things happen.
At Chicago Booth, we go beyond just teaching you how to come up with a business solution. We focus on creating an awareness of the many considerations that need to be taken into account when implementing an idea. The Chicago Approach™ combines theory and research from cognitive and social psychology, sociology, economics, and other related fields to study human behavior as it applies to a range of managerial contexts. You will examine such topics as the use of incentives; problem solving by individuals, groups and organizations; negotiations; how to build more effective working relationships; teamwork; and leadership
You'll have the chance to explore activities outside the classroom in numerous ways that will also allow you to build new skills, relationships, and networks. These include:
You'll have the option of taking courses that address your individual career choices. Samples include:
You'll study with professors who conduct groundbreaking research, consult with companies, and bring their real-world experience on how to navigate the challenges presented by a complex organization into the classroom.

On bus-accelerated machines, I would say yes. Also consider the DSP acts almost as a second 'processor' so can be performing calcs separate to the 060 if I am not much mistaken...?

Cinnamon Sticky-Bun Ice Cream
This creamy homemade cinnamon ice cream has a rich caramel swirl and chunks of cinnamon buns. Serve the extra caramel sauce over this or other ice cream or pound cake.—Taste of Home Test Kitchen
Total TimePrep: 1 hour + freezing
Makes2-1/4 quarts
- 1-3/4 cups whole milk
- 2/3 cup plus 2 cups sugar, divided
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 3 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon corn syrup
- 2 baked cinnamon buns, cubed
- 9 tablespoons chopped pecans, toasted
- In a large heavy saucepan, heat milk and 2/3 cup sugar until bubbles form around sides of pan. Whisk a small amount of hot mixture into eggs; return all to the pan, whisking constantly. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture reaches at least 160° and coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from the heat. Quickly transfer to a bowl; place in ice water and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in 2 cups cream, cinnamon and vanilla. Press waxed paper onto surface of custard. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
- For caramel, combine the butter, water and corn syrup in a heavy saucepan. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until butter is melted. Add the remaining sugar; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat without stirring. Boil for 4 minutes without stirring. Continue to boil for 12-15 minutes, stirring constantly or until mixture is caramel-colored. Remove from the heat. Carefully stir in remaining cream until smooth; set aside to cool.
- Fill cylinder of ice cream freezer two-thirds full; freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. Refrigerate remaining mixture until ready to freeze.
- In a large freezer container, layer a third of the ice cream, 1/2 cup caramel, 2/3 cup cinnamon buns and 3 tablespoons pecans. Repeat two times. Swirl mixture; freeze until firm. Serve with remaining caramel.
