Trading against the Apple apathy
- Commentary
- Posted By Cody Willard
I've mentioned before that I've seen pullbacks in Apple that lasted longer and went deeper than even the current 30% drawdown from Apple's all-time high over the years since I've owned it from $7 since March 2003. I was wrong to think that the stock would pop right back to $700 after a strong iXmas selling season and a historical record earnings for a tech company in last quarter's earnings report. Alas, I would venture that my bud, ex-Googlite David, is onto something about looking at Apple as a potential popper in the near- and mid-term.

Probing the structure and evolution of our Universe and the objects its contains requires, in general, that we make our observations above Earth's absorbing atmosphere. Starting with sounding rocket flights in the late 1940s, scientists have been able to develop ever-better instruments to probe deeper into space and finer into the details of our cosmos.

"Everything I'm going to say begins with the assumption that you believe the sermon, at heart, is a reflection on the word of God," said Bill Knott, featured speaker for the annual H.M.S. Richards Lectureship on Biblical Preaching. Knott, executive editor and executive publisher of the Adventist Review and Adventist World, aimed to inspire those sitting in the pews of the packed Seminary Chapel at the Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary in Berrien Springs, Mich. by focusing on the theme, "Preaching Worthy of the Name."
Knott began his four-part lecture series by bringing to light a unique, personal connection to H.M.S. Richards: while working at a coal mining camp in Colorado, Knott's grandfather was given Bible studies by Richards' father, H.M. J. Richards. "So there is a kind of symmetry for being here," he said.
Knott, himself a veteran pastor and graduate of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, immediately connected to the many students in the attendance by recalling his time studying. He told the story of Hannah More, an early Adventist reformer, missionary and the subject of Knott's dissertation. Her story is fragmentary, known mainly to Adventists only through some early writings of Ellen G. White. While studying her 150-year-old handwritten letters, the primary source for his research, Knott grew so familiar he could spot her letters while sifting through microfiche files at a high speed. He connected this skill to the importance of studying the word of God: "You get good when you spend time with a text at understanding its internal consistency. You become good at understanding what is essential about it."
The importance of not only studying the word of God, but also living with the text was emphasized, as Knott said, "If a sermon lacks a central, organizing authoritative text at the heart of the meditation, it's probably going to fall short on almost every count."
Twenty-nine years after Knott last spoke from behind the pulpit in the Seminary Chapel, he returned to give these words of advice to students set to embark upon their own journey in ministry: "It took me a long time to figure out how to take all that I got from this place and be able to use it for the benefit of the church…You have to find a way to walk and talk with your congregation and show what you have learned and gained from the word of God actually makes a difference. That's, to me, the great integrative task that sometimes we don't focus on," said Knott.
The H.M.S Richards Lectureship is named in honor of H.M.S. Richards, a pioneering Seventh-day Adventist preacher and founder of the broadcast ministry, The Voice of Prophecy. It is considered a hallmark of the academic year in terms of presentations and lectures. This annual lectureship advances the theory and practice of Bible-based, Christian preaching among seminarians, professional clergy and interested lay persons. H.M.S. Richards, himself, gave the first lectures in 1957. The lectureship continued on an annual basis before being discontinued. In 1994, it was permanently restored as an annual lectureship on Biblical preaching under the sponsorship of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary at Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Mich.

The President and CEO of the Vermeer Corporation in Pella has been selected as the head of a Branstad campaign committee for former Iowa Governor Terry Branstad. Mary Andringa tells KNIA/KRLS News, "The purpose of the committee is to simply explore the availability of support and resources for a possible Branstad candidacy. Terry Branstad has not made a final decision on joining the race for governor, and remains focused on his responsibilities as President of Des Moines University." Andringa has been CEO of Vermeer since 2003 and shares the position with her brother, Bob Vermeer.
In related news, state senator Paul McKinley, who was exploring a race for governor, tells KNIA/KRLS News that should Branstad formally enter the race, McKinley will withdraw from the race and focus on his leadership role in the senate to help return the Republican Party to a majority in the legislature.

Today, there are 56 more mountain gorillas roaming the Virunga Volcanoes than in 1989, when the last census was carried out. That's a 17 percent increase over the 1989 estimated population of 324 individuals in this region. This growth is particularly notable, given that it occurred in the midst of intense political instability and the Rwandan genocide, which took the lives of more than 750,000 people.
The future of the bonobos and other species in the Congo Basin is looking brighter thanks to two milestones in conservation. Both the passing of the Congo Basin Forest Partnership Act and AWF's launch of its newest African Heartland in the Maringa/Lopori-Wamba landscape, promise hope for the wildlife of the Congo Basin. This news is particularly welcome to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as it emerges from five years of civil war.
Great progress has been made in the past year through a partnership between AWF and a local community in Botswana.
Late in 2002, AWF signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding with Sankuyo Tshwaragano Management Trust (STMT). STMT is a community trust located east of Moremi Game Reserve.
The Memorandum is facilitating collaboration for management of wildlife areas and conservation enterprises. This furthers our mission by linking local people with wildlife conservation efforts in their area that generate much-needed income for communities and individuals.
Gland, Switzerland, 18 November 2003 (IUCN-The World Conservation Union). The Seychelles, the Galapagos, Hawaii, the remote South Atlantic islands - all conjure up images of tropical paradise or rugged beauty. But beneath these islands' striking appeal lies a story of invasion and destruction that is undermining the future of thousands of native species.
On November 13th, at the "Conservation is Good Business" symposium in Washington, D.C., the President of Botswana, Festus Mogae embraced the concept of sustainable economic development as the only option that offers hope for struggling African countries.

Global Section:
The United Nations Girls Education Initiative Global Advisory Committee sets path to 2015 and beyond
The meeting provided the GAC with an opportunity to work side by side with members of the national and district level partnership and to gain a greater understanding of the achievements and challenges faced at country level.
The Ugandan government has taken great strides in the education of the girl child, which has seen many positive changes, said Minister of State for Primary Education, Hon. Kamanda Bataringaya at the opening of the meeting. However, while we have achieved gender parity at national level, the challenges around enrolment and retention of girls in rural areas remain a priority.
The evaluation, commissioned by the GAC in 2010, was conducted ten years after the establishment of UNGEI and looked at the partnership at global and regional levels and four countries (Egypt, Nepal, Nigeria and Uganda). The purpose was to document achievements and challenges in the three UNGEI outcome areas: policy and advocacy for girls education and gender equality; good practice identification and dissemination; and an effective partnership.
Successful country-level initiative
The meeting included visits to the Ministry of Education and Sports, Makerere University and Ugandas Girls Education Movement (GEM) to look at successful country-level initiatives.
Today we met courageous and determined young people, who were standing up for themselves and taking actions to help girls return to school and stay in school, said UNGEI GAC Co-Chair Nora Fyles from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) on the visit to GEM.
GEM in Uganda is a voluntary child-led movement of children and young people, whose motto is Girls in the lead, Boys as allies while tapping the wisdom of Elders. It has been in operation since 2001, with a presence in 45 districts; just last year, it has helped over 5,000 children return to school and provided scholarships to 1,000 girls from underprivileged regions.
In GEM clubs, primary and secondary school children take part in a variety of activities such as mapping out-of-school girls, visiting communities and performing dance, music and drama to encourage community members to enrol and keep their children in school.
The evaluation has provided us with an opportunity to reflect on where UNGEI is and to think critically about strategic directions and interventions that would ensure we have a road map going further, said UNGEI Co-Chair Nitya Rao from ASBAE at the conclusion of the meeting.
The world is continually changing and its important to take time to reevaluate UNGEI to ensure we are leading the way in policy advocacy alongside identifying and sharing key strategies that work on the ground, added Ms Rao. We need at the same time to continue to work with other actors and partnerships like the Global Partnership for Education to ensure we are moving towards our goal, especially by targeting countries with the greatest disparities

The news from IGN.
But as usual Xbox and Playstation get it first.
But Chameleon is now verified as a playable character.
Go to the links section, there is another screenshot.
Chameleon and Reptile are my favorite character. Speacking of which, Khameleon may be in the great game.
Domo Arigato Draco-sama
Do you by any chance know who the stone-esqe chap taking the place oh the great, now apparently non-transparent Chameleon?
You mean the guy next to the question mark? It's one of the two boxes for Create a character I believe.
Khameleon verified as well.
I mean the black guy on the screen that features Meat. Right where Chameleon should be.
That is wierd I was wrong about the two guys by the question mark as well.
So you do not know he is?
Nope, I don't think it's a character. Just a place filler, like you have to unlock it first. I don't know.
Thank you Maltese. Sonya looks like a certain cacausian woman who was formerly a African-Amarican boy.
By the way, I must correct a question you asked me a while ago. Kabal turns out to be evil.
It'll probably get cleaned up by the time they release it. If not well, that's not why we play Mortal Kombat.
Seven Armageddon Loading Screens Released. My thanks to Cinder back at Mortal Kombat Online and Midway.
http://www.mortalkombatonline.com/conte … rticle=779
Nice site for info but I can't stand the message board there.
Three or so of the premium box designs
http://www.mortalkombatonline.com/conte … rticle=790
Well i'm psyched mostly because i love the mortal kombat games for what they are, and adding every character ever just adds to the excitement. But also, there are alot of new redesigns in store including:
- Finish him!(your way)- the fatality system has been revamped so that a short 2-3 button sequence starts a fatality, then you add to the humiliation with more button combos as the timer allows, creating different fatalities every time. (no more long button combos to remember just to see the same fatality)
-Custom character- create your own fighter with hundreds of weapons, fighting styles, outfits, and combos. Almost anything you can think of you can make your character look like.
-Air combos have been added
-Motor Kombat - A Mario Kart style racing game has been added with deathtraps and vehicle weapons. 10 playable characters with special attack, have fun destroying your oppenents in a new way.
I hope that gets some of you even more hyped for the game =P. (plus, Sektor has lightsabers in that picture!)
I hope that Reptile stays in his ninja form throughout the game.
What's the point of reptile if he doesn't turn into a reptile? j/k
From the screen shots it looks like he is part reptile at least, covering alot of it up with his ninja robes.
Unfortunately reptile's invisibility is used by Noob, Smoke and Tonya now =/
I thought it was just Tanya and Noob now or that's how it was in Deception. I don't like the bandaged look but I didn't think they'd go back to the old ninja form. What I'll miss most is the KireHashi he had in Deadly Alliance, maybe he'll get it back.
Well they have some explaining to do in this 1, i mean reptile was encased inside of the dragon king when he was resurected, so they need to explain how they are both alive. Among other character problems, like Liu Kang.
And in Deception I know only Noob and Tanya had invisibility, but Smoke is also known for it, and there was no need for him to have it considering Noob and him were together.
And if they have chameleon in this one, how come I don't see Khameleon? (for those who don't know she is the female version)
Well, I can't say I'm sure. But somehow, one way or another they'll have some explanation.
But since I've been playing the informant role. I might as well pass this article along for those that haven't already read it.
http://www.gameinformer.com/News/Story/ … .22861.htm
If you come across anything else, please send it along.
screen shots...
http://www.mortalkombatonline.com/conte … rticle=797
I have this site on my Yahoo page. Not sure if they have a newsletter.
Khameleon not in Armageddon for now.
Actually after posting i found info in my OXM magazine pretty much confirming Khameleon as a character.
I don't know, I just have one site. but we won't know until it comes out I guess.
Khameleon not in Armageddon for now.
My eyes, they bleed!!!
I have no real idea about the characters any more.
I know Khameleon isn't in the xbox and ps version is all. But Wii is supposed to be a possibility. Too may things circulate around speculation.
I hope you are right. I plan on getting the Wii.
NO! Wii sucks! Gamecube sucked, and Wii sucks, and I hate it.

Dom DeLuise, the mirthful, moon-faced comic actor who provided frequent comedic support in television variety shows of the 1960s and '70s and in movies starring Mel Brooks and Burt Reynolds, has died. He was 75.
DeLuise died Monday evening at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica, said DeLuise's agent, Robert Malcolm. DeLuise's wife and three sons were with him when he died. The family did not release the cause of death.
"He was a naturally funny man," film critic Leonard Maltin told The Times on Tuesday. "He didn't need a script to be funny, but smart people like Mel Brooks knew how to give him just the right setting and showcase."
Brooks told The Times that his good friend "created so much joy and laughter on the set that you couldn't get your work done. So every time I made a movie with Dom, I would plan another two days on the schedule just for laughter.
"It's a sad day. It's hard to think of this life and this world without him."
Reynolds, in a statement released by his publicist, said: "As you get older and start to lose people you love, you think about it more and I was dreading this moment. Dom always made you feel better when he was around and there will never be another like him."
The Brooklyn-born entertainer, who got his start on stage and in children's television in the 1950s, emerged on TV variety shows in the 1960s.
The same decade, he launched his film career, including roles in comedies such as "The Glass Bottom Boat" and "What's So Bad About Feeling Good?"
But he was best known for his movie work with Brooks and Reynolds.
Beginning with playing a greedy family priest in Brooks' "The Twelve Chairs" in 1970, DeLuise went on to appear in Brooks' "Blazing Saddles," "Silent Movie," "History of the World: Part I," and "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" -- as well as supplying the voice for the mozzarella-oozing Pizza the Hutt in Brooks' "Star Wars" parody, "Spaceballs."
With Reynolds, DeLuise appeared in "Smokey and the Bandit II," "The Cannonball Run," "Cannonball Run II," "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" and "The End." In the latter, DeLuise had a field day playing a frenzied schizophrenic.
The visually and verbally funny actor also appeared with Gene Wilder in "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother," "The World's Greatest Lover" and "Haunted Honeymoon" -- as well as in Neil Simon's "The Cheap Detective" and "Sextette," starring Mae West.
DeLuise also starred in and directed the 1979 comedy "Hot Stuff," and he starred in "Fatso," a 1980 comedy-drama written and directed by Brooks' wife, actress Anne Bancroft.
"He was one of these people who was gifted with the ability to make people laugh," close friend Carl Reiner told The Times on Tuesday. "I always say that between him and Mel Brooks, it was a tossup over who can make you laugh fastest and harder."
Until the 1970s, DeLuise was known primarily as a television personality.
While appearing in Meredith Willson's 1963-64 Broadway musical "Here's Love," DeLuise did a comedy routine as an inept magician, Dominick the Great, on Garry Moore's popular variety show.
That appearance helped pave the way for his becoming a regular on "The Entertainers," a short-lived variety show starring Carol Burnett, Caterina Valente and Bob Newhart that ran on CBS from 1964 to '65.
In 1966, DeLuise was a regular on "The Dean Martin Summer Show," a variety summer replacement program starring comedians Dan Rowan and Dick Martin.
Two years later, he hosted "The Dom DeLuise Show," his own comedy-variety summer series on CBS. His wife, Carol Arthur, a Broadway actress whom he married in 1965, was one of the regulars.
"I never met anybody like him," she told The Times in 1999. "He was just so much bigger than life, and he was so funny. I thought, 'This is the way to spend a lifetime.' "
In the early '70s, DeLuise was a staple on "The Dean Martin Show," occasionally singing in numbers with Martin and his guests and playing everything from a barber to a king's jester to a trench coat-wearing police inspector in sketches with Martin.
DeLuise told The Times in 2005 that the show's producer-director, Greg Garrison, gave him great confidence as a comedian.
"Greg was the man who said, 'Just go for it; I trust you,' " he recalled. "I was allowed to ad-lib a great deal with Dean."
In a golfing sketch with Martin and Bing Crosby, DeLuise played their loud, bad-joke-spouting caddie who arrives at a tee in a golf cart topped with a colorful umbrella: "I'm sorry I'm late," he said. "I had a flat tire. That's the first time I had a hole in one."
DeLuise, who also appeared in some of Martin's "Celebrity Roast" specials, didn't fare as well as the star of his own TV series.
"Lotsa Luck," a situation comedy in which he played a bachelor custodian in a New York City bus company's lost-and-found department, ran on NBC from 1973 to 1974.
He also starred in the 1987-88 syndicated sitcom "The Dom DeLuise Show," in which he played a Hollywood barber and widowed single father of a 10-year-old daughter.
And in 1991, he hosted the short-lived syndicated return of the classic comedy-reality show "Candid Camera." Over the years, DeLuise appeared on Broadway a number of times, including replacing James Coco as Barney Cashman in "Last of the Red Hot Lovers," the Neil Simon comedy that ran from 1969 to 1971.
As an actor, he provided the voice of Tiger in the animated movie "An American Tail," as well as its sequels and TV series. He also did voices for, among other animated films, "The Secret of NIMH," "All Dogs Go to Heaven" and "Oliver & Company."
He even occasionally performed with opera companies, including appearing in the Los Angeles Opera Company's "Orpheus in the Underworld" and playing Frosh the Jailer in a New York Metropolitan Opera Company production of"Die Fledermaus."
As long as he was entertaining people, he was happy, DeLuise told The Times in 1992.
"I like the whole process," he said. "I've never gone to work and wanted to do something else."
The son of Italian immigrants -- his father was a city garbage collector, his mother a full-time homemaker -- he was born Dominick DeLuise in Brooklyn, N.Y., on Aug. 1, 1933.
The youngest of three children, DeLuise developed an interest in acting after playing Scrooge in a junior high school production of "A Christmas Carol" and went on to graduate from the High School of Performing Arts in New York.
"I became a comedian when they laughed at my serious acting," he said in a 1997 interview with The Times.
He spent summers at the Cleveland Playhouse, where he appeared in productions as varied as "Guys and Dolls" and "Hamlet." In 1958, he had a stint as the fourth and final Tinker the Toymaker, the host-performer-instructor on "Tinker's Workshop" on Channel 7 in New York City.
And in the early '60s, he was a semi-regular on "The Shari Lewis Show," a Saturday morning children's show on NBC in which he played the bumbling private detective Kenny Ketcham.
Although his parents were supportive of his career, DeLuise told The Times in 1999, "I was really in this acting thing alone. My father was a peasant, a blue-collar worker, who was amazed that I got paid for what I do. He used to say, 'If you can make money with your mouth, God bless you!' "
DeLuise, whose girth grew greater over the years -- reportedly weighing 325 pounds in 1999-- was obviously a man who loved to eat. He also loved to cook. In the late '80s, he wrote a cookbook containing his favorite Italian recipes, "Eat This: It'll Make You Feel Better," which was followed by "Eat This Too!"
"When I was a kid," he wrote in the first book, "if I had a fever, had a cold, had a fight, had a fall, had a cut, was depressed, had a disappointment, fell off a truck, woke up with a headache . . . no matter what the situation, my mother's solution was always, 'Eat this, it'll make you feel better.' "
DeLuise, who had a second career as a celebrity chef, also wrote a number of children's books, including "Charlie the Caterpillar" and "The Pouch Potato."
In addition to his wife, DeLuise is survived by their three sons, Peter, Michael and David; his sister, Anne; and three grandchildren.
Services will be private.

Park Planning
Send an Email
There is a clear public need and desire for greenways and trail development in Mecklenburg County. In the fall 2007 and early 2008, a series of public meetings were held to provide public input into the Park and Recreation planning process. Greenways and trails were a major topic of discussion at these meetings. Additionally, a community survey conducted by ETC Leisure Vision found greenways and trail development was an important and unmet need for the majority of Mecklenburg County residents.
The results of the 2008 Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation Master Plan clearly reveal the public's appreciation for natural areas and their desire for a trail system. Echoing results found in Charlotte Department of Transportation's bicycle and pedestrian survey results, residents desired and supported the development of an interconnected trail system. From a list of 28 parks and recreation facilities, the top 5 requested by the public were:

AVAILABILITY: Unavailable for immediate shipment.
Printed Hold It Headband is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 4 out of 5 by HansGirl from Comfortable And Wicks Sweat This head band is a bit snug when you put it on. It feels like it doesn't have much stretch and will be tight enough on to give you a headache. Well, not so. It stays in place while keeping the sweat from your eyes. It was comfortable, and you won't even feel it. The design is also very stylish, and adds a bit of glam to a sweaty up-do! LOL! I have never seen a headband with this, - it has an elasticized skin strip (the same kind you find on bras, or clothing) which helps to keep the band in place. It helps, but it probably wouldn't move anyway because of how snug it fits. If your hair is kinky-curly like mine, you would be conscious of the fabric that hair accessories are made of, as to not running the risk of them drying out your hair. This is made of nylon and spandex, and not cotton which is a no-no for kinky curly hair.

Dangerous Wildlife Complaints
For more information on
hunting, please contact the
WDFW Wildlife Program.
Phone: 360-902-2515
Is Your Harvest
Safe to Consume?
is this animal tagged?
If the animal is tagged with a round yellow tag, such as the
one pictured to the right, it means that at some point in
its life it was treated with a drug. Drug residues may remain
in the animal's system for several weeks after it was
treated, depending on the particular drug and the species
of animal. These drug residues may be harmful to humans if
they are still present when the meat of the animal is consumed.
By entering the unique number found on the round yellow ear
tag into the space below, you can retrieve information to
help you determine whether it is safe to consume your harvested
game animal. This information is based on federal Food and
Drug Administration guidelines on time required for the animal
to have completely metabolized the drug.
When will the animal I harvested
be safe to consume?
Enter the tag number found on the round yellow ear tag in
the field provided, then click Check Tag.
If the date the animal is safe to eat is in the future,
and the animal is already dead, freezing it until that date
will not render it safe to eat. The drugs can only be metabolized
out of an animal's tissues if the animal is alive.
If the date the animal is safe to eat is in the future,
and the animal is already dead, freezing it until that date
will not render it safe to eat. The drugs can only be metabolized
out of an animal's tissues if the animal is alive.
Why do game animals receive drugs?
WDFW uses drugs to capture animals for a variety of reasons.
The animal may need to be relocated, it may be part of a research
study, or it may have been injured and required assistance.
In addition, when animals are captured, they sometimes receive
injections of antibiotics or other medications.
about other tags?
Sometimes an animal will have a larger (usually rectangular)
tag in its ear. These tags are numbered, can be any color,
and may be imprinted with a request to contact WDFW if the
animal is harvested. If the animal was drugged at some point,
a round yellow ear tag with the message: "Call
WDFW Before Consuming Meat", such as the one pictured
above, may have been used as the "stud" on the
back of the ear to attach the larger numbered ear tag. Because
of this, it is important to check both sides of the ear. If
no yellow round tag is present, then the animal either did
not receive any drugs, or did not receive drugs at a time
when drug residues might remain at the time of legal harvest.
What types of animals are tagged?
WDFW drugs and tags many species of animals. These may include:
bear, deer, moose, elk, cougar, wolves, coyotes, wolverines,
badgers, raccoons, foxes, fish and birds. The animals that
are of most concern relative to the drugs used are deer, elk,
moose, bear, and cougar.
Who is drugging and tagging these
WDFW veterinarians, wildlife biologists, and wildlife enforcement
officers are all trained and certified to use these drugs
on wildlife.

To sweeten the deal, Eidos and Square Enix are throwing in some bonus content. Pre-order the standard edition and you'll receive the Explosive Mission Pack. The pack features an additional mission (Tong's Rescue) with a special appearance from one of the original Deus Ex characters as well as a multi-shot grenade launcher, remote detonated explosive device, and an automatic unlocking device.
The limited Augmented Edition, which sells for $10 more than the standard game, includes a making-of DVD, soundtrack, motion comic, animated storyboard, and a 40-page art book.
Pre-order the Augmented edition and you'll also receive the Explosive Mission Pack as well as these in-game goodies: 10,000 extra credits to buy or upgrade weapons, a Huntsman Silverback double-barrel shotgun, the SERSR Longsword Whisperhead silenced sniper rifle, the Linebacker G-87 multiple shot grenade launcher, an Automatic Unlocking Device and the M-28 Utility Remote-Detonated Explosive Device.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution is being developed for Windows PCs, the Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. Square Enix has yet to date the game, but retailers taking pre-orders like Amazon.com state the game will ship on March 8.
Sharkey says: Eidos has been working on this one for a good four years. It's been a long wait for fans of the franchise like yours truly, but if the game plays as well as it looks in the trailers, it will be well worth it.

Miner Anglo American Picks Head of AngloGold to Succeed CEO Carroll
Anglo American PLC has chosen Mark Cutifani as chief executive, with an announcement likely within a few days, according to a person familiar with the situation.
Mr. Cutifani, the Australian chief executive of AngloGold Ashanti Ltd., would replace Cynthia Carroll, who resigned in October. AngloGold was spun off from Anglo American, the world's fifth-largest mining company by market capitalization, in 1998.

North Okaloosa residents have dealt with some difficult times lately.
North Okaloosa residents have dealt with some difficult times lately.
Crestview police have enlisted the FBI, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to help find Karl R. Menz and Virginia M. Lynch, who allegedly kidnapped 3-year-old Emmanuel Menz on Thursday at the South Ferdon Boulevard Burger King.
The incident followed a visit with a Department of Children and Families supervisor, who used the restroom as suspects reportedly orchestrated the kidnapping, police said.
Police first searched for a 2009 Dodge Caravan, but soon said the couple vacated that vehicle at a nearby Cracker Barrel and fled in a U-Haul van they rented from Fort Walton Beach a day before the incident.
Authorities are still investigating the incident, and local media have received no updates other than to look out for a U-Haul van with an Arizona tag and B-E- 5700 R- marked on the sides.
In other news, our Facebook fans had plenty to say when Thomas Biddle, a 29-year-old Crestview man, was charged with throwing a missile into a vehicle in a road rage related incident that Okaloosa County Sheriff's deputies said could have caused great bodily harm or death.
The missile � in this case, a water bottle � hit the chest of a motorcycle traveling approximately 70 miles an hour.
And today, we mourn the loss of Samuel Cornish, a 35-year-old found lying on the shoulder of South Ferdon Boulevard on Saturday with a stab wound to his chest, police said.
Cornish was walking along the roadway just north of Duggan Avenue before collapsing from his injuries, witnesses said. He died shortly after being taken to North Okaloosa Medical Center.
Whether it's the kidnapping, the missile incident or Cornish's death, it's distressing.
In smaller cities, we expect less crime. Fortunately, that seems to be the case in Crestview compared to larger metropolitan areas. But we as residents become particularly concerned when murder occurs.
Some Facebook fans immediately expressed that they were stunned by the kidnapping and fatal stabbing, and called others to respect each other more.
One woman said, "This is the real world, not Mayberry" and it's important to determine the best way to protect loved ones from harm.
Both sentiments have merit, but I would challenge the statement that this is not Mayberry.
Why not?
Granted, no town can match a 1960s sitcom's seemingly idyllic, aw-shucks, nothing-to-worry-about-but-what-to-serve-for-supper setting, but why should the expectation be that Crestview has a significant potential for crime or division?
Why shouldn't serious crimes and dysfunction be the exception?
This doesn't mean everyone should wear rose-colored glasses; it does mean that everyone, if they're not doing so already, could find the Mayberry within themselves, think of others and be more charitable.
We shouldn't speculate on what happened Saturday and why, but we should respect others' basic rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
We should remember that everyone here is someone's brother or sister, son or daughter, nephew or niece, grandson or granddaughter, best friend, spouse or role model.
You've probably heard of paying it forward; how every good deed begets another good deed, and creates a chain reaction.
Well, it works the opposite way, too. Every ill word, violent action or � in the worst case scenario � senseless death affects an extended family of loved ones, friends and acquaintances who struggle with loss.
It's important to remember this before a cross word passes our lips or a hand rises to strike.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Rams brought back Will Witherspoon to add veteran depth at linebacker.
He's preparing to start — at least the first four games.
The Rams' oldest player turned 33 Monday.
Witherspoon is set to begin his 12th season in the league.
Witherspoon got the starting job when Jo-Lonn Dunbar received a four-game suspension to start the season. Dunbar, who had the second-most tackles for the Rams last season, violated the league's policy for performance-enhancing drugs.
Dunbar can practice and play in the preseason but once the regular season starts, he will not take part in anything team related until after the Rams' fourth game, which is a home game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sept. 26.
On the last day of training camp Wednesday at Rams Park, Witherspoon said he ready to go and do what is needed.
"It's good to be back out there on the field," said Witherspoon, who started just five games last season with Tennessee. "It's always subject to change, right? That's the way I look at it. It's a good feeling. I just have to hold up my end of the bargain."
Witherspoon last started for the Rams in 2009 before he was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for receiver Brandon Gibson. He started his career with Carolina and then signed a free-agent deal with St. Louis in 2006. In 11 seasons, Witherspoon has made 150 starts in 173 regular-season games.
With Dunbar going to miss the start of the season, Rams coach Jeff Fisher plugged in Witherspoon with the first unit defense last Saturday in a home preseason game against Green Bay.
Fisher liked what he saw from the veteran.
"Will was fine. He didn't get a lot of snaps particularly because of Green Bay's personnel that they put on offense," Fisher said. "We had to play a lot of nickel. He played some with the second group. He was fine. He was active. He was where he needed to be."
For Witherspoon, it was important to be back out there and adjusting to the game on the field.
"I think it was really good to get into the game speed," Witherspoon said. "It definitely helps."
When Witherspoon signed in July with St. Louis, he did not know about Dunbar's situation.
"It's unfortunate," Witherspoon said. "It's one we'll all get by. At the end of the day, we've all got to step our game up and fill that void. When he gets back, it's readjustment time. We'll keep rolling forward."
Does Witherspoon have designs on playing well enough to keep the starting job?
"I'm just happy to be back to playing," Witherspoon said. "You can't say this is yours. Nothing is ever handed to you in this game. You've got to earn it, keep it and go."
NOTES: Hall of Famer Dan Dierdorf, wearing a Michigan cap to ward off the sun, watched practice while sitting in a golf cart on the sideline. ... RT Rodger Saffold practiced with the first unit in 11-on-11 drills. Saffold dislocated his left shoulder on the Rams' second play in their first possession in the preseason opener at Cleveland. ... Rookie WR Tavon Austin was back at practice after being excused for personal reasons. ... RB Terrance Ganaway, a second-year player from Baylor, told Fisher earlier in the day he was leaving the team to pursue a graduate degree. ... Camp ended with the traditional rookie dizzy bat races that Fisher started in Tennessee. Fisher declared RB Benny Cunningham "pretty impressive" as he struggled to gain his footing after spinning around while being doused with water.

I'm a girl who loves her space. I like having my own bedroom, my own quiet time to play guitar where no one can hear me, to walk down a street without having to swim through a sea of people, and regular doses of scenic mountains. So, why oh why, you might ask, would I voluntarily come to a place where nearly twice the entire population of Ireland could fit, where I share a bedroom and live in an apartment you couldn't swing a cat in.
I spent five years of my life in the academic bubble and stepped out into the real world to the bang of a recession in full swing. It seemed like every Tom, Dick and Harry had a degree or a masters and every one of them was in the same boat as I was: unemployed.
When you leave university, you expect some kind of opportunity to be out there for you but a previously booming economy had made sure that by the time the recession hit, I might as well have collected five crisp packets to become a graduate rather than slog through five years of study. It seemed that Ireland was bursting at the seams with educated people with no place to go.
Read more news from the Irish in New York
Motivated by my own restlessness and the encouragement of friends and family, I jumped on the band wagon to New York at the last minute with three girls I'd known from university. It did seem like there wasn't much choice in the matter due to the dead end that Ireland had become but, in the end, it was the temptation of life experience that made my decision for me.
We arrived in the night with our lives packed into suitcases that had eaten one too many pairs of jeans and made our way through crazy traffic and bright lights to Brooklyn, where we would stay for the next four nights. There seemed to be so much to do in the beginning and, due to visa restrictions, we only had 90 days to do it all. It's a bit of a catch-22 but it seems you can't get an apartment without a social security number, yet you can't get a social security number without an address. Thank God for an accommodating broker willing to take a chance on us. After spending four nights with my three friends in a small room in Brooklyn and one night in a hostel, two doors down from a trumpet player who sounded like he was announcing royalty every five seconds, we were relieved to get our own place, though it wasn't easy.
In Ireland, I'd never been asked for so much as a reference when moving house, whereas over here, we needed recent payslips, a good credit rating and references, whilst also discovering the joys of broker fees.
Having an apartment, no matter how tiny and unfurnished, felt like hitting the jackpot and we proceeded to make it our own with the cheapest that Kmart had to offer (the saucepans rusted through in three weeks and the first blow-up mattress went flat within two).
Being in New York on a strict budget can be pretty depressing when there's three million things to do and no money to do them. When having a cup of tea in a café feels like splurging, you know it's going to be a while before you see your first Broadway show. You need iron will power or an unlimited bank account to walk these streets.
Read more: How I fell in love with Ireland and finally moved there
Temptation is everywhere from the shops to the theatres, bars and restaurants and the smells that permeate the air are often responsible for emptying the wallet, and sometimes the stomach.
At the beginning it felt like I had left reality to take part in a movie. Even the dirtiness of the subways and the piles of rubbish everywhere seemed to be part of the film set and it took me a while to realise that this was my life now. The search for a job brought us down to earth as we could only take part in the movie if we had the money to finance ourselves.
Looking for work was a full time job in itself and after weeks of generic email replies or no replies at all, it felt like the only opportunity I would be given was to pick between a padded cell or a strait jacket. However, the good thing about all the crazy and eccentric people in New York is that it just takes a subway ride to reassure your sanity.
Since coming here, I have been propositioned by a hot dog stand vendor, chased down 40th street by a crazy man (not the hot dog vendor! different guy) and felt irrational urges to shove trumpets where the sun don't shine. But I've also soaked up the beauty of the New York Public Library, Grand Central Station, Times Square and Fifth Avenue like any other wide-eyed tourist.
New York is a contradiction of grubbiness and glamour with a mixture of the most eccentric, crazy and normal inhabitants that I will probably ever see. One minute, you can be on the subway, about to throw up while watching a man who looks like he could blend nicely into a Tim Burton movie devour half a can of dog food (the first half having been enjoyed by the dog), the next you're being blinded by the lights of Times Square, trying to absorb everything at once while trying not to crash into other tourists.
It may be a heady mixture of the weird and the wonderful, but in some ways, being in New York reaffirms our Irishness. In the search for familiarity among the sea of unknown faces and unfamiliar places, we gravitate towards Irish bars like we've never been in them before and feel an instant connection with other Irish immigrants. It is ironic that home seems to come closer, in that Ireland becomes part of our identity rather than just somewhere we're from.
Despite missing friends and family, money restrictions and the promised donation of organs to secure some Barry's tea and Kerrygold butter, I am one of the many to have fallen under the spell of New York City and know that it is an experience I will never forget.

There's nothing wrong with a bit of Nineties revivalism, but there's a point during 'Waste Of Paint', the seventh track on Peace's debut album, where it starts to get ridiculous. A loping, baggy beat and chuga-chuga chime-y guitars are joined, clear as day, by the riff from Blur's 'There's No Other Way', marking the moment when In Love pushes past nostalgia and becomes self parody. If you were being kind you'd say it was homage. We're not being that kind.
To Peace, time seems to have stopped somewhere between the Stone Roses' debut and the first Oasis album. It's not necessarily a bad thing: their influences are actually quite wide ranging so long as your field is restricted to the various forms of alternative music available in 1992. They pick all the best bits from Madchester and baggy, the first flowers of Britpop and the more psychedelic end of the grunge rock coming from America; at its heart In Love is the Charlatans covering the first Smashing Pumpkins album with a smidge of Suede, a smidge of the Mondays, a smidge of Blur and a blob of Pavement. It makes for distracting listening and it's hard to properly enjoy the songs when you're constantly noticing their inspirations, like discovering one of those old Shine compilations made up entirely of b-sides you've never heard before.
Whether all of this is really a problem is up for debate. Most of the band's record collection was obviously released while they were still in nappies and that gives the album an enthusiastic and youthful zing, as if they're proudly showing us something they've discovered, like a four-year-old growing cress on a flannel. Or displaying a full potty. It's fine if you're 17 and discovering these sounds for the first time, but for those of us past the 30 mark it makes this a difficult record to get excited about. We've already been through this, back when Hard-Fi were little. It's not charming anymore.
If you can clear your mind of the baggy nostalgia, or if you've never heard those records before, In Love is quite a bracing and well put together indie rock album, though nothing more than that. 'Follow Baby', which slices between fuzzy grunge guitars and sweet melodies is a well buffed attempt at a Britrock classic that gets dangerously close to the mark, while 'Wraith' grafts a Seventies stoner groove to a shimmering chorus creating a well judged and dancefloor friendly helping of psychedelic pop and the most 2013 moment here. These boys do catchy very well indeed - the chorus of 'Delicious' lifts a fairly ordinary baggy jam to an album highlight - and guitarist Douglas Castle has a knack for earworm riffs and lead lines, even if they are a little too heavily indebted to mssrs Coxon and Squire. It's his melodic playing that lift 'Float Forever' and 'Sugarstone' above the sub-Tim Burgess bedsit poetry crooned by singer Harrison Koisser ("Sit atop the Eiffel in your mind/if you're not happy wearing denim, you're the devil in disguise"). The psychedelia, the grunge and the insistent baggy beats come together best on 'Toxic', creating the heartily satisfying indie rock anthem precisely no-one was waiting for just now.

((((((Hugs to All)))))) ~
I decided to post a new thread, rather than post this in the Updates thread, where it might be lost in our great discussion about MBY.
After nearly a month of waiting, Jon's PT sent me a text today saying that he was authorized to visit Jon and wanted to drop by today. Fortunately, the house is clean, because the Toenail Team was here yesterday. More on that in a moment ...
PT assessed Jon's legs, noted that he doesn't have pitting in his skin (a good thing), examined the blisters on the top of Jon's foot, and stated that the best treatment is to wrap Jon's leg in cotton and two types of compression tape. Now, Jon looks like he has a broken leg, or is in the process of mummification.
I texted PT tonight that Jon's knee and thigh are quite swollen, and I asked if we needed to do more than elevate his legs. Waiting for a reply there. It's a little scary.
PT will return on Friday to unwrap Jon's leg, reassess, and determine whether to continue this treatment, increase compression, or return to the compression stockings. He expects good results, but he also said that he will request visits for 3 times a week until the fluid retention is resolved.
I don't know whether Jon's insurance will authorize this, but he's going to submit it and hope they do.
As much as we like our PT, visits 3 times a week don't allow for much else to happen in a week. For example, at some point we need to get rid of our termites.
That will require several days of ripping out our office closet, so that the exterminators can access our two attics. They will inject orange oil into the studs, then we have to turn up the heater to 90 degrees for several hours. Considering that we're facing a heat wave this weekend, this may have to be stalled even longer than it has been.
Also, it's stressful when we have people visiting, because Jon's sleeping patterns are all over the map. Jon woke up at 8:45 this morning, after 6 hours of sleep. By noon, just before the PT's arrival, I had to wake Jon and keep him awake for the PT's visit. He is just so tired all of the time now.
Of course, if this is what Jon needs, this is what we'll do. He's NUMBER ONE.
I confessed to PT today that Jim and I haven't been doing Jon's stretching exercises, because we didn't feel comfortable. We needed more training, and the PT had knee surgery and was out for over 4 months. We were probably doing it wrong, as Jon expressed pain, so we stopped.
The PT was so kind and told us that we did the right thing. Given Jon's nonexistent left hip, his contractures are a part of his posture now. And he noted that Jon's legs are not any more windswept than they were when he visited 2 years ago.
Toenail Team yesterday cut out ingrown nails on both of Jon's big toes. Both are infected. We are waiting for the regimen from them per the podiatrist. Antibiotic cleanser and ointments, most likely.
Jim and I are becoming concerned about the enlargement of the granulation tissue around Jon's trache stoma. We don't know what we can do to conquer it, nor whether it might encroach and cause breathing issues for Jon. I doubt that our nurses would know what to do, as they have so few trache patients. We don't have access to respiratory therapists. Or a pulmo doctor. Something that I need to explore. I just have to figure out where to begin.
So, we're praying the compression wrap works quickly and effectively. PT mentioned giving Jon Lasix, a diuretic, and Jim and I simultaneously exclaimed, "NO!" That must be done in a controlled environment, like ICU, because at home, we've gotten into trouble giving Lasix. Dehydration, seizures. Nope. Absolute last resort, because that means the hospital.
It only took about a month to get the PT here. Now that Jon is a Palliative Care Patient, things should move more effeciently. If not, I have extra leverage, when I complain. At least, I think that's the case. I guess we'll find out.
Love & Light,

Well, hello there!
It's been a while...
I have A LOT of news!
Including a new addition
to our little, sweet family!
Meet my Alice:
We have had several months
to get adjusted to our new life...
and I am now ready to start baking again!
My amazing mother-in-law
gave me a huge jar of
fresh pumpkin over the weekend.
Hmm...what to do, what to do!?
{wink, wink}
I decided on perfecting the art of:
Recipe adapted from Cannella-Vita
Makes 2 loafsIngredients
2 sticks Butter, room temp.
3 cups Sugar
4 Eggs
15 oz. Pumpkin Puree {canned works perfect}
2/3 cup Buttermilk
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
3 1/2 cups Flour, all purpose
2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
1 tsp. Ground Nutmeg
1/2 tsp. Ground Allspice
1/2 tsp. Ground Ginger {I adore ginger! If you don't, reduce to 1/4 tsp.}
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, salt and spices. Set aside.
Coat two loaf pans with a non-stick spray. Set aside.
In a stand mixer, with paddle attachment, mix butter and sugar together on medium speed. Once the mixture turns a light yellow in color, add in eggs - one at the time. Mix in pumpkin and vanilla extract. Alternating wet and dry, add in buttermilk and flour mixture {I do half the buttermilk, half flour mixture and repeat.} Scrap down sides of bowl and beat again on low for another few seconds, making sure all ingredients are nicely incorporated. Pour batter into prepared loaf pans and bake for 50-60 minutes. Be sure to test center of loafs with a tooth pick before removing from oven...tooth pick should come out clean after being inserted intoeach loaf.
Now, cut you a thick slice
{while it's still warm, of course!}
and ENJOY!
This is my favorite
pumpkin loaf recipe - by far!

"The only thing I know is that the Israeli government has assured us, as much as they can, that they never had any program of trying to get intelligence information from our country or doing any spying on us," Reagan said in a nationally-televised press conference from the White House. He added that the Justice Department is continuing its investigation, "but so far, there's been no evidence presented to us from anyone." Asked what he would do if some evidence of additional Israeli spying was found, the President replied: "Well, then I think we'll have to deal with that then and find out whether it's a surprise to the Israeli government, whether someone was off *?$*"« I X Simson, Summer And Broidy Honorees At Temple Israel Brotherhood Sabbath 0: • ""''ft ^•i Rabbi Gary Huber Rabbi Gary Huber Elected President Board Of Rabbis Rabbi Gary A.

A Rogue Operation Pollard pleaded guilty June 4 to spying for Israel while a civilian intelligence analyst for the Navy. His wife, Anne, pleaded guilty to the lesser charges of receiving and possessing stolen national defense documents. Both are awaiting sentencing. The Israeli government has maintained that the Pollard episode was a "rogue" operation of which it has no knowledge. The Israeli Embassy has declared that ship and unselfish devotion to the cause of Judaism through Temple services. This year, Fred Summer has been selected to receive the award. Summer, a native of Columbus, received his B.A. from Harvard University and his J.D, from the University of Michigan. He is presently an attorney in the firm of Murphy, Young and? Smith. Long active at the Temple, Summer has served on the Religious, Membership, Hebrew Education and Nominating Committees, is past-president of the Brotherhood, serves on the Board. of Trustees and is assistant secretary of the Temple. Summer has also charges that the espionage went beyond Pollard are "baseless." The State Department said last week that it accepts the Israeli assurance that the espionage does not go beyond Pollard and that Israel is cooperating in the continuing investigation. However, Justice Department sources have been asserting that the espionage goes further,than Pollard. Pollard is cooperating with the probe as part of his plea bargaining agreement in which he will pot receive a life sentence.

Curb Your Camera Enthusiasm, ColbyIntrigue swirls around Colby, as he appears on HBO's CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM during the airing of Survivor: All-Star.SNNMonday, March 8, 2004In Episode 39 of HBO's CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM ("The Survivor") the star of the show Larry David was told he was meeting a survivor, assuming the "survivor" in question was from the Holocaust.Colby played himself at a dinner party with Larry and argued with a Holocaust survivor about who had it roughest surviving.This appearance is unusual, and we're not talking about the irreverant humor. Colby is not only under a strict contract that allows CBS to veto all of his media appearances (HBO is owned by Time-Warner, a competitor of CBS parent company Viacom), but he has not even been voted off the show yet; truly a first for the heavily controlled Survivors on the CBS plantation.Did Colby make a sweet deal with the powers that be, allowing him to further his acting career in this manner?If so, it heralds a remarkable change in flexibility on the part of The Eye. Unlikely.If not, well, the CBS marketing department will have their knickers in a twist, at the very least. Colby, Colby, Colby...

Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony
|Dropping In
To begin this mission, head over to Bulgarin's house. As you know, it's located on Stillwater Avenue in Dukes, just west of Francis International Airport. When you arrive, you'll find Bulgarin and his bodyguard, Timur, playing some metal. Well, Timur is playing metal... Bulgarin is wielding an AK-47 and dancing around the room. Nonetheless, these two very drunk Russian mobsters have a job for you to undertake, if you are willing to play ball. Timur is going to come along with you on this mission, which unfortunately will require you to fly a helicopter.
As has been the case multiple times as you've played through this DLC pack, your destination is the Heli Tours helipad, located at the southeastern end of Algonquin, off of Flatfish Place. Simply drive over from Dukes, following your GPS in order to get there in one piece. When you arrive, you'll have to take a helicopter sitting on the helipad there, and fly it high, high above Algonquin. Indeed, the helicopter controls are inherently awful, but you don't have to pull off any crazy maneuvers here, so you shouldn't have too much to worry about. Be sure to carefully fly through the pink rings you encounter, and listen to Timur's advice. Gaining altitude is key here.
When you've gained enough altitude and are sitting above (and near) the building you are to land on top (located in between Jade Street, Kunzite Street, Burlesque and Frankfort Avenue), take a leap of faith out of your helicopter by following the on-screen prompt. Then, you'll almost certainly want to pull the cord on your parachute immediately, because you're going to need to carefully glide over to the building in question, which will be marked both on your HUD and in real time (the latter by a huge pink halo). Overshooting the building, missing your landing completely, or otherwise botching this operation will force you back up into the air to try again. So land carefully. And remember, you don't have to land directly on the roof. If you land on the sides of the building, you may be able to climb up to the roof via a ladder, depending on where you are.
When you've managed to breach the building, you'll have an extended gunfight on your hand. Thankfully, none of the thugs you'll be dealing with are armored, or exceptionally armed, for that matter. This means that your task here will be a relatively easy one. Things are completely linear within the building's interior. You'll have to move forward down the initial hallway, drop down to a hallway below via some sort of elevator shaft, fight your way forward, to the left, and then to the left again. Once you go down these stairs and emerge via the other door, you'll be in the hockey team's office, where your target is located, along with the remnants of his guards. Bust through the resistance you meet, and work towards the glass-encased conference room. When you've shot your target, he'll fall out of the window and die a dramatic, painful death.
Now all that's left to do is make a getaway. Remember that when you have a parachute, you have your primary parachute and a reserve chute. It's time to use the latter now. Jump away from the skyscraper via the same broken window your target fell out of. Timur will be on the streets below with a flatbed truck, and he'll attempt to catch you and drive you to safety. If you manage to land this difficult jump (follow Timur on the GPS while trying to triangulate his location), then the mission will end without too much of an issue. If you fail to make the jump however, and chances are you will, you'll need to get away from a couple of cars' worth of thugs. Feel free to kill a couple of them and steal their car. Then, make your getaway to conclude the mission.

I've been fretting for some time over the growing push for national curricular standards, standards that would be de facto federal and, whether adopted voluntarily by states or imposed by Washington, end up being worthless mush with yet more billions of dollars sunk into them. The primary thing that has kept me optimistic is that, in the end, few people can ever agree on what standards should include, which has defeated national standards thrusts in the past.
So far, the Common Core State Standards Initiative – a joint National Governors Association/Council of Chief State School Officers venture that is all-but-officially backed by Washington – has avoided being ripped apart by educationists and plain ol' citizens angry about who's writing the standards and what they include. But that's largely because the CCSSI hasn't actually produced any standards yet. Other, that is, than general, end of K-12, "college and career readiness" standards that say very little.
Of course, standards that say next to nothing are still standards, and that is starting to draw fire to the CCSSI. Case in point, a new post on Jay P. Greene's blog by former Bush II education officials–and tough standards guys–Williamson Evers and Ze'ev Wurman. They are heartily unimpressed by what CCSSI has produced, and think its already time to start assembling a new standards-setting consortium:
The new consortium would endeavor to create better and more rigorous academic standards than those of the CCSSI….
Drab and mediocre national standards will retard the efforts of advanced states like Massachusetts and reduce academic expectations for students in all states.
Yes, it is late in the game. But this should not be an excuse for us to accept the inferior standards that at present seem to be coming from the rushed effort of CCSSO and NGA.
Evers and Wurman's piece is an encouraging sign that perhaps once more national standards efforts will be torn apart by fighting factions and spare us the ultimate centralization of an education system already hopelessly crippled by centralized, political control. Unfortunately, the post also gives cause for continuing concern, illustrating that the "standards and accountability" crowd still hasn't learned a fundamental lesson: that democratically-controlled government schools are almost completely incapable of having rich, strict standards.
Evers and Wurman's piece offers evidence aplenty for why this is. For instance, the authors theorize that a major reason the CCSSI standards appear doomed to shallowness is that the Obama administration has made adopting them a key component for states to qualify for federal "Race-to-the-Top" money, and states have to at least say they'll adopt the standards in the next month or so to compete. In other words, as is constantly the case, what might be educationally beneficial is taking a distant back seat to what is politically important: for the administration, to appear to be pushing "change," and for state politicians to grab federal ducats. Political calculus is once again taking huge precedence over, well, the teaching of calculus, because the school system is controlled by politicians. We should expect nothing else.
Here's another example of the kind of reality-challenged thinking that is all too common among standards-and-accountabilty crusaders:
CCSSI's timeline calls for supplementing its "college and career readiness" standards with grade-by-grade K-12 standards, with the entire effort to be finished by "early 2010." This schedule is supposed to include drafting, review, and public comment. As anyone who had to do such a task knows, such a process for a single state takes many months, and CCSSI's timeline raises deep concerns about whether the public and the states can provide in-depth feedback on those standards–and, more important, whether standards that are of high quality can possibly emerge from the non-transparent process CCSSI is using.
Evers and Wurman assert that if standards are going to be of "high quality" the process of drafting them must be transparent. But the only hope for drafting rigorous, coherent standards is actually to keep the process totally opaque.
Phonics or whole language? Calculators or no calculators? Evolution or creationism? Great men or social movements? Transparent standardizers must either take a stand on these and countless other hugely divisive questions and watch support for standards crumble, or avoid them and render the standards worthless. Of course, don't set standards transparently and every interest group excluded from the cabal will object mightily to whatever comes out, again likely destroying all your hard standards work.
In a democratically-controlled, government schooling system, it is almost always tails they win, heads we lose for the standards-and-accountability crowd. This is why these well-intentioned folks need to give up on government schooling and get fully behind the only education system that aligns all the incentives correctly: school choice.
Choice lets parents choose schools with curricula that they want, not what everyone in society can agree on, establishing the conditions for coherence and rigor. Choice pushes politicians, with their overriding political concerns, out of the education driver's seat and replaces them with parents. Finally, choice lets real accountability reign by forcing educators to respond quickly and effectively to their customers if they want to get paid. In other words, in stark contrast to government schooling , school choice is inherently designed to work, not fail.

A few thousand people enjoying a lovely late-summer evening is not the ideal moment to sing an a cappella lament about a family tragedy. But Neko Case pulled it off Friday at the Hideout Block Party and A.V. Fest.
In the song, the narrator witnesses a mother saying hurtful things to her child at a bus stop. The vignette moves from shock to anger to empathy, a meditation on resilience. Case leaned into the microphone and told the story without fuss or tears, shaded by Kelly Hogan's harmonies.
It was a bold move, and much of the chatty crowd quieted long enough to savor it. Case gave each song exactly what it needed, honing in on small moments rather than indulging in bombast. Her voice pierced the night with its emotional transparency, and Hogan was her foil. Case trilled the high notes on "Hold On, Hold On" while Hogan's harmony slid underneath. They sang counterpoint melody lines that softened the accusatory lyrics in "Local Girl" and burrowed into the plaintive heart of "Night Still Comes."
Much like the vocalists, the undulating guitars of Eric Bachmann and Jon Rauhouse wove in, out and around each other. The rhythm section left plenty of room for everyone, a three-dimensional space in which the songs could expand and contract as needed. Frequently, Case telescoped things down to just the sound of her voice, delivering drama by playing it small. On "Wild Creatures," the band fell away as she came to a landing. "There's no mother's hands to quiet me," she sang, a quietly devastating reflection on the mother and grandmother she'd lost in recent years.
There was no hint of maudlin in this performance, though, despite the despair that entangles some of the songs. Case is a quirky pop songwriter, but her attitude is defined by the unflinching delivery of mountain-soul music, hard country and punk. "You didn't know what a man was until I showed you," she declared while bashing her guitar so hard it's a wonder it didn't bust a string.
Case said she was dedicating "every song" to Mavis Staples, the 74-year-old Chicago gospel matriarch who preceded her on stage. Staples hobbled after recently undergoing knee surgery, but she was in a feisty mood.
Her current band is designed to evoke the approach taken by her family, the Staple Singers, in its '60s and '70s prime: gospel quartet vocals and a guitar-bass-drums rhythm section. Guitarist Rick Holmstrom channeled Mavis' late father, Pops Staples, with his sparse, swampy tone. The backing vocalists included her sister Yvonne, and their harmonies were accented by syncopated handclaps that suggested a church choir in full swing.
Staples surveyed her career, reaching back to the civil-rights anthem "Freedom Highway" and paying tribute to her late friend Levon Helm with a cover of The Band's "The Weight." Slapping her chest, the singer demanded, "Put the load, put the load, put the load right on me." She's made the song her own in recent years, and on this night she sang like she wasn't giving it up anytime soon even while waving her walking cane.

Apparently 12 years for $250 million. This despite recent ratings of 0.37 and 21,000 households tuned in in a market of about 13,000,000. Compare this to the Pens ratings of 7.89 with 92,000 households tuned in in a market of 2,500,000.
Yes the competition between 2 sports cable channels apparently helped raise the amount of the deal. But how can the winning cable channel come close to profiting with so few watching? Sure the numbers will pick up next year with the Kings in the finals and likely winning the Cup. But still! The market size is probably a factor, but shouldn't the number of viewers be the biggest factor?
Does this give the Pens leverage when their TV deal with Root Sports comes due? Does anyone know when that will be? Does anyone know how much they currently receive from Root Sports for the TV rights?
Would appreciate a response from someone with a little inside knowledge of local sports TV deals.
