Rod Blagojevich may have ended Tuesday in disgrace, but the Illinois governor can be credited with doing at least one good thing--he was able to guilt-trip Bank of America into helping out workers at a shuttered window factory.
President-elect Barack Obama issued statements in support of the workers, and Blagojevich said Monday that he would withhold lucrative Illinois state business from the bank unless it restored the company's line of credit.
Under federal law, workers are supposed to be given 60 days notice of a factory closure--Republic, whose business was decimated by the housing bust, gave its workers three days. Republic workers are demanding pay for the legally mandated 60-day period, plus accrued vacation pay.
Bank of America told Forbes.com that it is willing to give Republic another loan to fund an agreement that the company comes to with its employees. "We are still a long ways off," said Bank of America spokeswoman Julie Westermann when referring to the time period of negotiations. The bank said that it has been trying to work on Republic's finances with the company since February.
Good thing Blago threw his support behind the workers when he did. On Tuesday, Blagojevich was arrested on charges that he tried to sell President-elect Barack Obama's Illinois Senate seat to the highest bidder. The governor was also charged by federal prosecutors with trying to strong-arm Tribune Company management into firing members of the editorial board of The Chicago Tribune, which had criticized him. (See "The Corruption Capital Of America")
U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald called Blagojevich's behavior "a truly new low."
President-elect Obama has not been charged with any wrongdoing, and his office told the media that he had no involvement in the affair.

Cycling-New deal to keep Tour de France on free TV across Europe
LONDON, Sept 9 (Reuters) - The Tour de France cycling race will remain on free-to-air television in major European markets including Britain and Italy until 2019 after organisers agreed a new broadcast deal on Monday.
Commercial broadcaster ITV will show the three-week Tour in Britain, while state-owned RAI will screen it in Italy. Pay-TV companies have made big inroads into the sports rights market in those two countries.
British riders from Team Sky, backed by BSkyB, have won the Tour in the last two years but the pay-TV company has been unable to secure live rights to the event.
"We are clearly in the midst of a golden era in cycling in Britain and, more than ever before, the Tour De France is a landmark event in the sporting calendar," said Niall Sloane, ITV Director of Sport, welcoming the deal.
ITV has shown the race since 2002 and has benefited from a surge in interest in the sport in Britain, propelled by the Tour wins for Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome in the past two years.
The agreement was signed by Tour organisers ASO and the European Broadcasting Union, an alliance of broadcasters across the continent. Eurosport will continue to show the Tour in more than 60 countries under the new terms.
Illustrating the expansion of broadcast technology, rights holders will be able to offer the Tour and a number of other major cycling races online, via smart phones and through social media networks.

- in Comics, Interviews
- review by Julia Rothman

My Dirty Dumb Eyes (plus an interview with Lisa about her work)
Coming home from Lisa Hanawalt's book launch party at powerHouse Arena many months ago, I was cursing myself. I have been dragging my feet to get this book blog re-launched, and here I was missing a chance to feature one of my favorite books to come out this year. I wanted to share with the world how unexpected, absurd, and hilarious Lisa's work can be. I wanted to show pictures of her crazy animal characters and take close up photos of the neon painted sections. It was killing me.
There was always this book, staring at me from the shelf, probing me to get to work on the new site. That day has finally come! I am so, so excited to finally feature this amazing collection of Lisa's work. Since this was a momentous occasion, I decided it might be nice to ask Lisa some questions about her work and the book. Hope you enjoy the short interview below and pick up a copy here. (Lisa's sketchbooks will be featured on the site soon)
Before I met you, I started following you on Instagram. I remember being pleasantly horrified by some of the stuff you were posting. I recall one drawing you posted of a naked woman defecating into a boot. The caption was "Fall Fashion." So when I first met you at a party, I was expecting this crazy, wild woman. Instead, you were this shy, pretty, well-dressed girl in big glasses. I was kind of confused. I couldn't believe you were the same person.
Yeah, I think people are surprised at first and don't recognize me based on what they thought I would be like in their head. A lot of people ask me if I do drugs. I don't. Well, not really. But I think that's part of why I draw that way. That is what I am like inside.
Do I just not know you well enough? Do you get drunk and start getting really perverted, and I just haven't seen it yet?
No, I'm not insane at all. I do say dirty stuff to my friends but I'm not that wild. I'm quite timid and well-behaved most of the time. I admire people who are outspoken and crazy. That's why I have a lot of friends who are comedians. I really like the bravery, but I don't have it myself. So my way of getting that out is by drawing. I'm never going to be like that on the surface.
What about your parents? What do they think of you drawing dirty stuff?
I think they're into it. My dad in particular, well, both of them actually, have expressed that they think it's great that I've found this mode of communication. They are quiet like I am. They're scientists. We are all sort of well-behaved people.
I did see a picture of your dad posing in a strange costume on Instagram.
A kangaroo costume! My dad is really funny. He likes really bad puns and he's the one who got me into comics. He used to read me the Sunday paper comics. And they're both really into the arts and they collect sculptures and paintings.
But when penis topics come up, do you all just laugh together?
They think it's really funny.There's only one comic that my dad was kind of not into and that was one about menstruation. He was like "ooo, I don't like this one. That's too much." Ha.
So is there anyone out there who you would be embarrassed by seeing your work?
Some of my older relatives still don't like it. Like my aunts on my dad's side. They are not so into it. It's just a bit much for them, but that's fine with me. I don't want people to see if it's going to make them feel uncomfortable. I want them to have the freedom to say, "that's not for me." I totally get it.
What about the celebrities you draw? What if Anna Wintour saw your comic about her?
I would be so excited if she saw my comic! I really hope she's seen it. But she probably has all these assistants in place just for that purpose. I hope she would feel flattered and know that even though I'm making fun of her, that it comes from a place of admiration. Same with the Martha Stewart piece. I love Martha Stewart. The piece about her being drunk, it's just showing that she's so in control. She's so perfect that you want to break that down alittle, so that's what that's about. Not about me not liking her.
You don't do much personal work, or there isn't much in this book. There's one piece that features a (animal) couple talking, and she's crafting these small fingers and they are discussing the meaning behind doing it. I'm assuming that comic was autobiographical? There's a photo at the end that shows the real sculptures.
Yes. That's like a little reveal or something. It's a joke…
How did that comic get into the book? Of all the personal things you could write about, like your romantic relationships, which everyone writes about, why did you chose this comic to be the one personal piece? Also will we be seeing more personal work from you, or is this something you're not interested in?
I love diary comics. I love reading them. But when I draw myself as a human, I find it repulsive. It's too raw. It's too bare. If someone didn't like it, I would feel personally hurt by it because it's me. I need to disguise myself as a moose because then if someone criticizes that piece, I could be like, "well it's just this character of a moose. It's not me." But when I made that piece about the finger sculptures, I was going through those feelings "what am I doing? I'm just making these things and when I die I'm just going to have this pile of stuff I've made. What's the point of it?." I do have those problems when I'm making work. I start to question myself. Part of getting over that was actually just drawing the story about it. My conversation with my boyfriend totally inspired that conversation between the moose and the cat where it was like, it doesn't matter if you feel good or bad when you make stuff, just move your hands. That's something he said. And I thought it was funny, but also kind of sad. I wasn't sure if that piece would go in the book or not until I finished it. But then I thought "this sort of ties into everything" and it makes the pop culture-y parts of the book, like the movie reviews… it brings them back down to earth in a way, it makes it more personal. It felt like a bit of a risk to have that comic in there. But I think sometimes the things that make me feel the most embarrassed to put out there, end of being my favorite things. I would like to do more personal work and more work that isn't just funny and silly, but also maybe a little sad. I'll probably always disguise myself as an animal.
With drawing your human-self, what is that thing that you are afraid of hearing someone say ?
You are just exposing yourself when you draw yourself in that way. It makes it easier for people to criticize you in addition to the work. People who do diaristic comics can grow to deal with that… I guess, I just don't know if I'm that interesting a person. People who do diary comics often have gone through something crazy: addiction, wild sex with multiple people…I don't know. They have stories to tell. I just don't know that my life story is that interesting.
I have certain things that I want to do a story about. I spent two years in LA working in a warehouse as a personal assistant/warehouse worker and that was really bizarre. I kind of want to make it into a story but I'm not sure how to yet.
Your boyfriend is a comedian. I'm wondering how he's influenced you.
We both really like jokes! and laughing. He's a really good writer and a good editor. I show him my movie reviews or whatever I'm working on and he can tell me what jokes he thinks are working and which ren't. I don't always take his suggestions, but I often do. I also help him by reading his scripts. If he has to come up with gags, I'll help. I think we help each other a lot.
What about competition?
We only get competitive with Twitter. He gets really mad that I have more followers than him. The other day he was like "I had a really good day on Twitter." and he was reading me all his tweets and then he read me number of retweets and number of faves on each tweet. It was really funny. He is the opposite of me in many ways. He has days when he's not confident and needs to be pep talked, but he doesn't have the same thing I have holding him back from being loud and obnoxious as I do. He's a performer, naturally. It's inspiring. He's not afraid of bad things happening. He says stupid thing out loud.
I wanted to ask something about your process. We were looking through your sketchbooks (a peek inside coming soon!) and I noticed these little lists everywhere, of what I am guessing are the things you think are funny. Does everything start as notes like this?
That's often how it starts. Scribbles. It's hard for me to remeber to write things down because ususally when I have an idea it starts with something really stupid that pops into my head when I'm falling asleep. I think "Ah,well, this is important, I'll remeber it." But, no. I need to write it down, or else it's gone.
And this book, how did it happen?
Drawn and Quarterly approached me. At the time, my literary agent and I were already sort of putting together a proposal to pitch around and we sent it to a few different publishers. It was difficult, because I wanted to compile all these different things I've done; I wanted to include my movie reviews. The publishers we talked to didn't know how we could include those and they wanted me to do something a little more focused. One place wanted me to do a book just about Ryan Gosling! One place wanted me to have chapters on cocktails and recipes and night-life. Those are things I really don't do in great quantities. Drawn and Quarterly was like "we just want this to be the Lisa Hanawalt book." I was like, "that sounds good." They let me be in control of it, for better or worse. For a first book, it's really what I wanted. I wanted it to be 100% my voice, and my weird world.
I'm really happy with it. I think it's the best thing I've done so far. Of course, a lot of the work is old to me now. It's work I made over a year ago. Now I just want to go onto the next thing. That's the thing about books though. When they come out, all the critics say you should have done this or that, but I know that already. That stuff is old and I've already learned from it. But you won't see the stuff I'm working on now for like two years or more.
Well, I can't wait until we do. Thank you so much Lisa for talking with me. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of Lisa's book right here.

(Critical Guide to British Fiction)
The novel revolves around the last period of Bruno Greensleave's illness, in which his bad conscience about the way he treated his long-deceased wife, his dead mistress, and his son is made the center of everyone's life and eventually precipitates difficulties which must be met and solved not only in order that Bruno may die in peace but also to allow the others to live with some chance of making sense of their lives. Bruno's determination to set things right with his son, Miles, whom he repudiated years ago when Miles married an Indian woman, is made most difficult because Miles, although remarried, still mourns for his first wife, who was killed in a plane crash. Father and son are both looking back into their past unhappily, and that matter is coincidentally complicated by the fact that Bruno's son-in-law, Danby Odell, has never entirely got over the death of his wife, Gwen, who drowned some years before.
Miles, at least, has the consolation of a second marriage to Diana, whom he loves, although not with quite the same intensity that he felt for his first wife. His sister-in-law, Lisa, who was once in Catholic orders, lives with them. Danby, always skillful at living on the surface of life, and involved unwillingly in bringing Miles and Bruno together, has avoided deep emotional connections since the death of his wife and keeps his housekeeper, Adelaide, who loves him, as a mistress but is not unhappy about starting up an affair with Diana and...

Wayne Rooney says Sir Alex Ferguson was wrong to question his fitness last season
Wayne Rooney says he has the statistics that prove his fitness was at the same level last season
Last Updated: 24/11/13 5:33pm
The 28-year-old travels with United to Wales to face Cardiff City on Sunday in a game which has taken on added importance after Saturday's victories for Arsenal and Chelsea.
Rooney has been praised for a series of energetic displays for United this term, but he reignited the debate with his former manager about his physical condition by claiming he was performing at the same level for club and country last season.
"It was the same last season. I've got all the stats, so I know," Rooney told the Sunday Times. "The stats are pinned up around the training ground every day and after every game you always get your stats - and it's the same with England.
"It's something you can monitor in terms of how much work you are doing and sometimes you do need a bit of a rest, so that's what we do.
"I'm just saying it's the same as last season but it's been noticed this season."
Rooney is expected to start in United's first-ever Premier League game at the Cardiff City Stadium despite playing 161 minutes in England's last two matches - more than any other England player.
His new manager David Moyes admitted he has been impressed by Rooney's work-rate but suggested he might be prepared to give him some time off in the future for fear of burning him out.
"With the intensity of his football and how well he is playing, I was hoping we could have got him some time off," said Moyes.
"Obviously, Roy (Hodgson) has to pick his teams and the games were important for him and I respect that but somewhere along the line I will need to give Wayne a breather.
"If I get an opportunity I might be able to give him a little bit of time off as he is incredible with his effort and work. We've seen a Wayne Rooney we all like and all enjoy watching but we can't run him into the ground all the time."
Watch Cardiff take on Manchester United live on Sky Sports 1 HD at 4pm on Sunday.

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. - Complaints are coming in to sheriff's investigators about a phone scam that plays on people's emotions and fear.
Carl, who didn't want to use his or his wife's last name, said he received a call at 2 p.m. Monday. He said that because it was a 407 area code, he didn't hesitate to answer.
"He went on to tell me his brother has been involved in a car accident with my wife," Carl told WFTV's Racquel Asa. "He then told me he had my wife in his apartment as a hostage at gunpoint ... in the meantime, I called my wife."
"And he just said, in a panic, 'Where are you?' and I said, 'I'm in my office,' and I said, 'Why?' and he said, 'I'll call you back,' and then hung
up," said the man's wife.
Carl said his instinct to make the call kicked in the minute the scammer asked for $2,000.
"I'm not gullible, but when you get a phone call like that, you're not going to think clearly," said Carl.
According to investigators, it's the time when the intended victim is not thinking clearly that works to the scammer's advantage.
Investigators said it's often in the first minute of the call when the scammer gets the most information out of their intended victim.
"Instead of mentioning the name, say something like, 'What do you mean my husband has been in an accident?' That will throw someone off guard because they aren't expecting that answer," said Marcus Camacho of the Orange County Sheriff's Office.
Instead, investigators said, take note of details like is it a man or woman, background noise or even an accent.
Those were all things that Carl remembered.
"More than anything, I'd like to see the gentleman caught, prosecuted and put in jail," said Carl.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office said it gets up to three calls a day from victims describing similar scenarios.
Investigators said the calls are hard to trace because most of the time they come from out of the country. But they said a report should be filed because it allows them to track similarities.
Deputies say phone scam plays on emotions and fearUpdated:

CRS Annotated Constitution
|Article III -- Table of Contents
|Prev | Next
From these quotations may be isolated several factors which, in one degree or another, go to make up a "case" and "controversy."
Adverse Litigants
The presence of adverse litigants with real interests to contend for is a standard which has been stressed in numerous cases,308 and the requirement implicates a number of complementary factors making up a justiciable suit. A concrete example of the requirement being one of the decisive factors, if not the decisive one, is Muskrat v. United States,309 a case not now deemed of great importance, in which the Court struck down a statute authorizing certain named Indians to bring a test suit against the United States to determine the validity of a law affecting the allocation of Indian lands. Attorneys' fees of both sides were to be paid out of tribal funds deposited in the United States Treasury. "The judicial power," said the Court,". . . is the right to determine actual controversies arising between adverse litigants, duly instituted in courts of proper jurisdiction. . . . It is true the United States is made a defendant to this action, but it has no interest adverse to the claimants. The object is not to assert a property right as against the government, or to demand compensation for alleged wrongs because of action upon its part. The whole purpose of the law is to determine the constitutional validity of this class of legislation, in a suit not arising between parties concerning a property right necessarily involved in the decision in question, but in a proceeding against the government in its sovereign capacity, and con[p.652]cerning which the only judgment required is to settle the doubtful character of the legislation in question."310
Collusive and Feigned Suits.—Prime among the cases in which adverse litigants are required are those suits in which two parties have gotten together to bring a friendly suit to settle a question of interest to them. Thus, in Lord v. Veazie,311 the latter had executed a deed to the former warranting that he had certain rights claimed by a third person and suit was instituted to decide the "dispute." Declaring that "the whole proceeding was in contempt of the court, and highly reprehensible," the Court observed: "The contract set out in the pleadings was made for the purpose of instituting this suit. . . . The plaintiff and defendant are attempting to procure the opinion of this court upon a question of law, in the decision of which they have a common interest opposed to that of other persons, who are not parties to the suit. . . . And their conduct is the more objectionable, because they have brought up the question upon a statement of facts agreed upon between themselves . . . and upon a judgment pro forma entered by their mutual consent, without any actual judicial decision. . . ."312 "Whenever," said the Court in another case, "in pursuance of an honest and actual antagonistic assertion of rights by one individual against another, there is presented a question involving the validity of any act of any legislature, State or federal, and the decision necessarily rests on the competency of the legislature to so enact, the court must . . . determine whether the act be constitutional or not; but such an exercise of power is the ultimate and supreme function of courts. It is legitimate only in the last resort, and as a necessity in the determination of real, earnest and vital controversy between individuals. It never was the thought that, by means of a friendly suit, a party beaten in the legislature could transfer to the courts an inquiry as to the constitutionality of the legislative act."313 Yet, several widely known constitutional decisions have been rendered in cases in which friendly parties contrived to have the actions brought and in which the suits were su[p.653]pervised and financed by one side.314 And there are instances in which there may not be in fact an adverse party at certain stages, that is, some instances when the parties do not actually disagree, but in which the Court and the lower courts are empowered to adjudicate.315
Stockholder Suits.—Moreover, adversity in parties has often been found in suits by stockholders against their corporation in which the constitutionality of a statute or a government action is drawn in question, even though one may suspect that the interests of plaintiffs and defendant are not all that dissimilar. Thus, in Pollock v. Farmers' Loan and Trust Co.,316 the Court sustained the jurisdiction of a district court which had enjoined the company from paying an income tax even though the suit was brought by a stockholder against the company, thereby circumventing a statute which forbade the maintenance in any court of a suit to restrain the collection of any tax.317 Subsequently, the Court sustained jurisdiction in cases brought by a stockholder to restrain a company from investing its funds in farm loan bonds issued by federal land banks318 and by preferred stockholders against a utility company and the TVA to enjoin the performance of contracts between the company and TVA on the ground that the statute creating it was unconstitutional.319 Perhaps most notorious was Carter v. Carter Coal Co.,320 in which the president of the company brought suit against the company and its officials, among whom was Carter's fa[p.654]ther, a vice president of the company, and in which the Court entertained the suit and decided the case on the merits.321

|Pass "Template instance" to event-callback and template helpers
|Phil Cockfield
I'm looking at the methods listed in the documentation under "Template instances".
It says these methods are only available from the this context of the created, rendered and destroyed handlers.
It would be extremely handy to have these available to the DOM event handlers as well, for example:
Probably harder to do this in the template helpers, because the DOM elements have not been constructed yet (right), but certainly in the events callbacks I'm finding myself wanting to access DOM elements all the time.
Would this be possible - or is there already a prescribed way to do this?
|Re: Pass "Template instance" to event-callback and template helpers
|Theodore Blackman
I agree that something to do this would be helpful, but I think one problem with this right now is that the `this` in the event handlers and template helpers is different from the `this` in the `created`, `rendered`, and `destroyed` helpers, and that actually makes sense in a way, since the `this` in the helpers is about the data context with which the template is rendered, while the other functions are about the template instance itself. It would be great if this were more consistent, though; I had a few bugs due to switching back and forth there, since I often move code back and forth between the lifecycle handlers and the helper functions during development.
IMO, any really good solution here would also let the event handlers and template helpers get access to the parent template and the parent data context. This would address a whole slew of issues that people (including me) have been having with rendering more complicated data structures. Maybe the right thing to do would be to standardize the `this` for all the template functions to refer to the template instance itself with an extra `parent` variable pointing to the parent template instance, and then the template renderer could use the `template.data` for the `this` inside the templates themselves (if it doesn't already...) so as not to break everything. Not sure how difficult that change would be on the spark/Handlebars side of things...
Another possibility would be to add references `templateInstance` and `parent` to the data-context `this` in the event handlers and helpers. The parent there would point to the parent data context, which I think is used much more often than the parent template instance. That would also be a much more minor change to the API, and my hunch is that it would be significantly easier to implement.
I see the issue with the DOM elements not being constructed yet, and don't have a good solution. I've used Meteor.defer to get around this in the past, but it felt really hackish.
|Re: Pass "Template instance" to event-callback and template helpers
|Phil Cockfield
Yes totally! Being able to get a parent ref that let's you walk up the hierarchy would provide an enormous amount of flexibility when aiming at more sophisticated rendering scenarios.

Sophomore Vocation Dinner
The Hellenic College sophomore class was invited to dinner and a talk by the Office of Vocation & Ministry for the annual Sophomore Dinner on Thursday, February 7, 2013. HCHC Director of Institutional Advancement Fr. Jim Katinas teamed up with his daughter Catherine, a Hellenic College senior, to give a 'down to earth' career services presentation based in large part on the research and methodology of career expert Richard N. Bolles in his book What Color is Your Parachute? Fr. Jim tied in personal examples of how he initially used this excellent resource to discern a career in financial consulting, and his presentation stimulated a variety of questions and discussion. Catherine shared her experience interning for a renowned Boston-based laboratory, and how this guided her decision to pursue graduate studies after college. After an evening of intellectual nourishment and a gourmet buffet, the Sophomore's were serenaded by the soulful acoustic melodies of local musician Annalise Emerick.

China Seen Facing Wave of Unrest in 2009
January 6th, 2009
Via: Reuters:
China faces surging protests and riots in 2009 as rising unemployment stokes discontent, a state-run magazine said in a blunt warning of the hazards to Communist Party control from a sharp economic downturn.
The unusually stark report in this week's Outlook (Liaowang) Magazine, issued by the official Xinhua news agency, said faltering growth could spark anger among millions of migrant workers and university graduates left jobless.
"Without doubt, now we're entering a peak period for mass incidents," a senior Xinhua reporter, Huang Huo, told the magazine, using the official euphemism for riots and protests.
"In 2009, Chinese society may face even more conflicts and clashes that will test even more the governing abilities of all levels of the Party and government."
President Hu Jintao has vowed to make China a "harmonious society," but his promise is being tested by rising tension over shrinking jobs and incomes, as well as long-standing anger over corruption and land seizures.
China also faces a year of politically tense anniversaries, especially the 20th year since the June 1989 crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square. That date has already galvanised the "Charter 08″ campaign by dissidents and advocates demanding deep democratic reforms.
While foreign commentary about risks to China's recipe of fast economic growth and one-party control are common, the nation's leaders are usually reticent about such threats.
This report and other recent open warnings may be intended to help snap officials to attention, said one Chinese expert.
"The candor about these problems reflects the severity of the unemployment problem. It's meant to attract the attention of all levels of government," said Mao Shoulong, a professor of public policy at Renmin University in Beijing.
"The government wants to show that stability is at the top of its agenda."
The biggest threats to China's social fabric will come from graduating university students, facing a shrinking job market and diminished incomes, and from a tide of migrant laborers who have lost their jobs as export-driven factories have shut.
Factory closures, sackings and difficulties paying social security had already unleashed a surge of protests, the report said. Officials in provinces that have provided tens of millions of low-paid workers for coastal factories have reported a leap in the number returning to their farm homes without work.
State statistical authorities estimated that close to 10 million rural migrant workers had lost their jobs, the magazine said, without specifying when the sackings happened.
Including students who graduated in 2008 and had not found work, there would be more than 7 million university and college graduates hunting for jobs this year, Huang calculated.

Tomas Maier to Expand Eponymous Line
Bottega Veneta's lead designer is relaunching his namesake label with a new store In New York City—and affordable price points
FOR THE PAST few months, designer Tomas Maier has played out a sartorial version of Upstairs, Downstairs, dashing between floors of Madison Avenue's Fuller Building, in New York City. On the 15th floor is the design studio of Bottega Veneta, the Italian luxury-fashion house he has helmed for 13 years, while on the sixth floor is the recently established headquarters for his more gently priced, eponymous line. Upstairs, he might ponder a $5,600 printed cotton–poplin dress; downstairs, he works at his haute plywood desk on a $495 denim shirtdress, part of his recently expanded Tomas Maier collection, which launches this fall.
Though the garments have very different price tags, Maier sees both as part of the same woman's wardrobe. Tomas Maier "is more about what I call 'time off'—when you are at home, when you pick up your kids from school or when you go on holiday," he says. "Bottega is for the more formal side of life."
It's hard to imagine that Maier, 57, has any time off at all. The famously exacting German designer is as hands-on as ever at Bottega Veneta, where his vision of logo-less luxury generated $1.4 billion in sales last year. And he's been able to expand his own cultish brand thanks to a recent influx of investment from Kering, Bottega Veneta's parent company. Maier founded his line in 1997, specializing in structured swimwear and après-swim clothing. This fall, he'll introduce a full collection of ready-to-wear, shoes, jewelry and bags for both men and women, as well as open his first store in New York City in October.
Despite the tags bearing his own name, Maier is adamant that this is no vanity project. "Who needs another extremely expensive designer collection?" asks Maier. Nor will he be launching an ad campaign or hosting any fashion shows. "There are already too many," he says. He speaks from experience, having attended fashion school in Paris before working at Sonia Rykiel, the fur company Révillon and Hermès, where he spent nine years as the designer of women's ready-to-wear. "But I also worked at mail-order catalogs," he points out, "and I always thought that was interesting because it's more of a challenge to make everything as nice as possible at [a lower] price point."
The expanded Tomas Maier line takes into account varying body types as well as differences in climate. It includes a raw-edged wool peacoat, a feather-light cotton dress, a blue silk pajama-style ensemble for his female clientele to wear during long flights and, for men, his ideal T-shirt, which retails for under $100, and moccasins. There's also a unisex cross-body messenger bag in caramel calfskin. Rather than introducing new trends, Maier says, future collections will complement the prior ones. "It's like someone's closet."
Fittingly, his newest store (he has a long-standing shop in Palm Beach, Florida, and a seasonal outpost in the Hamptons) is more akin to a home than a flashy new boutique, with wood-plank floors and vintage chairs by Danish mid-century master Børge Mogensen. "I didn't think the Upper East Side needed another precious store," he says of the 2,800-square-foot duplex space on upper Madison Avenue. It will feature glass vitrines with drawers inspired by the desk of Maier's architect father alongside bookshelves Maier made to display a small library of favorite tomes, which will be for sale. He'll also carry products from exclusive collaborations with a handful of companies, such as jewelry by Milanese designer Osanna Visconti di Modrone and mirrors by French furniture designer Christian Astuguevieille. Next year he hopes to open another New York store, in downtown Manhattan, followed by another in Miami.
It's all part of Maier's goal to use fashion as a means to streamline and improve his customers' lives. "I want to help you by giving you something that looks good and makes you happy," he says before heading back upstairs to check on his other day job. "I hate frustration."

If every sports star got to play for the team he idolized growing up, the Cowboys, Bulls or Yankees would be stacked. The Toronto Raptors wouldn't be too bad off, either. While the Raptors are usually not the first pick of young basketball fans looking to make their name in the sport, the north-of-the-border NBA club was apparently the favorite of a youthful Kevin Durant. He liked Vince Carter and how he led Toronto to a sudden ascent in the Eastern Conference, Durant said this week on The Dan Patrick Show. He also liked what the Raptors got to wear. "Believe it or not, I wanted to play for the Toronto Raptors. That was my favorite team," Durant told Patrick. "… I was a big Vince Carter fan growing up. I liked their jerseys, to be honest. They were a new team when I was growing up, so I wanted to be a part of that." A great follow-up to that would have been Patrick asking Durant about the alternate jersey that Durant has been stuck wearing with Oklahoma City this year, but alas, Patrick moved on to asking Durant about Kobe Bryant.

WTNH–The most important defense against aging is sunscreen, but is yours doing enough?
Some sunscreens only protect against UVB rays, which are what cause the skin to turn red in the sun, but they don't protect against UVA, which penetrate deeper into the skin and cause wrinkling, leathering and other telltale signs of aging. So while you might not be getting burned, you could still be doing damage.
For what to look for to make sure you're fully protected, check that your sunscreen label says broad spectrum, multi-spectrum or UVA/UVB protection. Always wear an SPF of at least 30. Apply sunscreen daily and wear it even if you work inside or it's cloudy. Windows typically only filter out UVB rays — not UVA — and 80 percent of the sun's rays can penetrate through clouds.
Be sure to apply sunscreen at least 15 minutes before heading outdoors and reapply every two hours.

The 50 Sexiest Celebrity Twitpics And Instagrams Of 2013 (So Far!)
Sunday, June 30th, 2013
The year 2013 has been very kind in the way of super hot celebrity Twitpics and Instagrams. Rihanna has been at the forefront, giving out so many overtly racy snaps that her mother complained! But she's far from the only one who has raised some eyebrows with their digital exhibitionism.
Digital titans Adrianne Curry and Coco were happy to oblige, as were musical favorites like Mariah Carey, Demi Lovato, Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus. Silver screen sirens like Hayden Panettiere, Selena Gomez and Anna Kendrick showed their stuff, and even VH1′s own stars like La La Anthony, Erica Mena and Draya Michele got in on the action. There are always too many sexy pics to choose from…and it isn't even July yet. So today at the midway point of the year, we've decided to take a look back at the most scandalously social media snaps of 2013…so far. Enjoy!

AM I a lesbian??Visitor's Question from a 13-15 year old Female
I am 14 so I have been dating guys, and have always liked guys, I have kissed guys. But I have never liked a girl, or kissed one for that matter, it kind of weirds me out. But lately I would go on youtube and serch girls kissing (not gross stuff) just sweet kisses, and I liked it, and I keep imagining myself feeling up other girls, but I have never met a girl I actually like, and right now I am super in lover with my boyfriend.
So am I lesbian? HELP!
RomanceClass.com Advice
You might be a lesbian, or straight, or in between.
It wouldn't be unusual to imagine being with the same sex. The proof of the pudding is if you enjoy kissing and making out with your boyfriend. If you do, you may be bi.
Only time will tell.
Good luck! George

Joe and his first wife, Marie C. (Maistorovich) Chase, were married in Milwaukee, Wis., and soon moved to Seattle, Wash., where they had a daughter and a son.
After working for Todd Shipyard and Boeing in Seattle, Joe began a career that spanned 30 years. He worked for the federal government in Alaska.
Joe moved to Juneau in July 1969. He remained in Juneau for the next 11 years, holding several positions including housing officer. He retired as supervisory contract administrator in July 1980 after 26 1/2 years with the BIA.
In 1976, Joe married Francille B. (Lawrence) Nerger and became the stepfather to a daughter and two sons. After their retirement, Joe and Fran moved from Juneau to Puget Sound in Washington state. Joe and Fran moved to the Skagit Valley in Washington state in 1990.
Joe was a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks in Sitka, Juneau and Mount Vernon, Wash. He was a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. While living in Juneau, Joe was inducted as an honorary member of the Tlingit tribe.

Hiring your cake and eating it too
When evaluating candidates, I have always been a believer that cultural fit and potential to improve is more important than technical ability. Of course I like to review real code samples and give a programming test, but I rarely ask for whiteboard programming. I am not a master of algorithms or math and don't have a CS background, so I don't require that of most candidates*. As Five Thirty Eight explains and shows, people just want to date themselves.
This policy is amazingly ego-centric. But it's also worked pretty well. Without exception, I'm proud of the hires I've had a primary stake in. But it is the best policy, at least for the type of work I'm doing?
I think I am a pretty darn good hire. Why would I want to exclude people like me? Well, the fact is that I'm not special. There are way more gifted people around than me. There are plenty of people who are a great fit, and are great leaders, managers, developers, and coaches, and are awesome at math and algorithms. Should I overlook myself to try and get someone better?
Clearly companies like Google can do this. There are anecdotes about people who they hired the second or third time around. People like Steve Yegge. On the other hand, there are plenty of managers that hire "to fill a seat." Can every company interview like Google, and reject otherwise promising candidates that do not ace a challenging technical interview?
Who you choose to hire does not define what your company is, it defines what your company will become. If you give in and make unenthusiastic hires, your amazing company will be dragged into mediocrity. If you hold the line and hire only the best, you'll continue to excel, if you can find people. In reality, most companies are somewhere in the middle.
The "best" policy is the one that fits your situation. In an isolated job market, you may choose to value fit and culture. A tight-knit culture may help retention, and make it easier for the inevitable low performers to improve. At a startup, you may have limited headcount, short timelines, and immediate technical needs. Cultural fit would be trumped by technical expertise and experience. On the other hand, cultural fit may be most important at an established company. The biggest risk is a dilution of the culture, and there are plenty of senior people around to do mentoring.
Recognizing what you should select for is much more important than simply always trying to be as selective as possible.
* Obviously there are exceptions. If you need expertise, you need expertise. My thoughts apply to the 80% case.
One thought on "Hiring your cake and eating it too"
I'm quite practical here. When I hire people I want them to be in my team for the long term, because hiring new people is an investment. Hiring is expensive, but also it takes time (and thus money) until someone fits into the team and gets to know the ropes.
For this the chemistry must be right. Tech art work is teamwork. If you don't fit into the team, then all the time I gain by your technical excellence will be wasted again by managing your ego (or lack thereof). I believe it is easier (and much less stressful for me) if we teach you technical things rather than trying to shape your personality. That's much more time intensive, stressful and difficult, especially if you're a technical artist and not a psychologist.
My interview usually focus on the candidates work. Talk about your folio, talk about your job, talk about your professional interests. Ask us clever questions (I believe that a candidate's clever questions tell me more about themselves than their clever answers do). What's your hobby project, what coding or tech art related would you do if you had a lot of time on your hands? How'd you go about it and what tech would you choose? Personally I don't really believe in nitpicky coding questions. Although there's a standardized test for more senior candidates which will be taken into account as well.
Sometimes you really need raw expertise and skill, and I think those are the dangerous hiring situations. You may feel tempted to make exceptions just so you can have a guy who helps you with something for a deliverable. That I think that can be a mistake – you really have to weight short term vs. long term benefits here, or you hire such a person on a contractual basis, if you're not sure if they'll fit.
But in the end,hiring is like planning a project – it's essentially you trying, with some clever methods, to predict the future. In my career I always fared well with people who I hired because they could talk about themselves, their work, who showed enthusiasm and curiosity. People who would go home and then work or research their own things because they love what they do. Those are the guys who stay in the team, who get promoted, and who'll actively try to improve themselves. And in that case, does it really matter that much how good they are at the beginning?

The aim of this paper is to describe the design features and practicalities of conducting a cluster randomized trial of obesity management in primary care. The aim of the trial is to assess the effectiveness of an obesity management educational intervention delivered to staff within primary care practices (unit of randomization) in terms of change in body weight of their patients (unit of analysis) at one year. The design features which merit particular attention in this cluster randomized trial include standardization of intervention, sample size considerations, recruitment of patients prior to randomization of practices, method of randomization to balance control and intervention practices with respect to practice and patient level characteristics, and blinding of outcome assessment. The practical problems (and our solutions) associated with implementing these design features, particularly those that result in a time delay between baseline data collection, randomization and intervention, are discussed.

Historical background: the international law
governing weapons
International humanitarian law is the branch of international law concerned with the waging of warfare.1 It regulates the conduct of hostilities and the treatment of those not actively participating in the conflict (namely, civilians, the wounded and sick, and prisoners of war). It seeks to minimize suffering and ensure that both combatants and civilians are treated humanely. Although international treaties on the subject are of fairly recent origin, practices regulating armed hostilities are evident throughout history. Even before there were States, battles fought between tribes, clans or other groups were often governed by rules to mitigate the effects of armed violence. The ancient texts of many civilizations show that in war, prisoners were not to be killed but taken and well treated; women, children and the elderly were not to be harmed; and warriors should not use barbarous weapons or methods of attack.2 While such practices were often founded on grounds of religion, morality or honour, they are the forerunners of the legal regime States have developed to regulate armed conflict.
International humanitarian law is based on the precept that the sole objective of war is to overpower the armed forces of the opponent.3 Men become the legitimate object of attack solely because of their relationship____________________

Quote:Well done on the accreditation! Great picture. Forgive me but how old is the 156?
Thank you, this car has been rebuilt from original parts becasue ferrari had a policy of destroying all cars at the end of a season in that era, but when the cars were being raced, the car is 49 years old!
Nice sharp image well positioned in the frame just hitting the apex of the bend.
I remember seeing these originally with Phil Hill, Lorenzo Bandini Wolgang von Tripps etc., driving and they looked so much better in red.

For eight years Colonial Radio's comedy series The All New Dibble Show played weekly on Sirius XM Radio. When the station went off the air in July of 2013 - so did Dibble. This is the final broadcast episode of CRT's long running satellite radio hit.
While The All New Dibble Show will continue on with new episodes, it has the honor of being on the air weekly since September 25, 2005. (It only went off the air for two weeks from then till 2013!)
The character that started creator Jerry Robbins on the road to modern radio drama, Dibble, first appeared in 1987, but had his first 13 episode radio series in 1990. When CRT began producing serious productions, Dibble went on a little vacation, returning in 2003 with the show we now have today - live from the Town Hall Theater in glorious Mayham, Massachusetts!
When it was announced that the Book Radio channel was being taken off the Sirius XM schedule, it was decided that Dibble should have the last word for CRT. After all, he's only 3'3", but he tells it like it is!

Jerry Robbins and the cast of Colonial Radio Theater really kicked Sirius/XM in the rump. This maybe Mr. Robbins finest work. The funniest thing was this actually aired on the SXM!

TEL AVIV -- Israel on Friday selected "Fill the Void" (Lemale et ha'chalal) as its submission for the best foreign language film at the Oscars.

What do you feed your 11-12 month old?
DS has never REALLY liked baby food, but I still buy it and try my hardest to get him to eat it. He'll mainly eat the pureed fruits. I'm just not sure what type of finger foods I should be giving him at this age. I give him tiny pieces of chicken, banana, gluten-free cheerios (DS1 is GFCF), and tiny pieces of apple (which he chews forever and doesn't really swallow). Any other ideas? It doesn't seem like he eats a lot. I'm having some trouble remembering what I fed DS1 at this age. He ended up having a sensitivity to wheat and dairy, which we took him off of last year after 3 years of eating lots of cheese, breads, and milk. I'm a little worried that my other son will have the same problems. Because of this, would it be okay to give him dairy alternatives instead of whole milk when he turns one? He is BFed now.
Thanks for any advice!

Re: What do you feed your 11-12 month old?
DD has always just gotten a little of whatever we're having, plus a few things like grapes and dips that are toddler-friendly. Steamed fresh or frozen veggies (corn is her fave), yogurt, applesauce, tortillas, sticky rice. Soft fish or chicken, batons of beef or pork.

Almost any soft fruit but citrus/strawberries. Eggs. Cheese. Toast/crackers/bread. Meat that's been ground up some on a food mill. Soft cooked veggies like carrots. Ravioli/pasta without sauce. Natural fruit leathers. Yogurt. Cottage cheese. Applesauce/other fruit sauces. Chex (bonus :gluten free ). Homemade fries. Mashed potatoes.
But both my girls got teeth fast.

Re: What do you feed your 11-12 month old?
for the most part he eats whatever we're eating. Canned fruit in juice (not syrup). Pears/peaches canned are both very soft- you don't have to cut them up just give the slices. DS loves canned pears, he prefers fresh peaches. Shredded cheese, ravioli- we do with sauce. Pasta with and without sauce.This may sound weird but canned, diced tomatoes or stewed diced tomatoes- he loves them. Yogurt, frozen yogurt melts, applesauce, steamed broccoli (I cut florets in half, but not in tiny pieces and I cut the stem off- only because he will shove a floret the size of his fist in his mouth- its funny but then he has to spit it out in order to eat it) and green beans. Roasted carrots- the only way he likes them, roasted potatoes. Home made sweet potato fries (baked). Meatless homemade pizza- he really likes, we put spinach on it. He loves chicken and fish, but that is all the meat he'll eat. He is offered whatever meat we are eating he just doesn't eat it. Rice- he loves any flavor rice.
We have family history of food allergies so we have not given him any eggs, things with nuts or strawberries. We just introduced fish at one. We will introduce eggs in baked goods/pancakes first then try scrambled. Next strawberries. And we will not introduce anything nut based until after he is tested. DD has a severe peanut allergy that was found through testing not exposure.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer showcased the newly completed plaza deck at the Citrus Bowl stadium Wednesday.
The deck will give fans with any ticket price a prime view of the field.
City officials have been giving tours regularly, and Wednesday they were showing of the giant deck area that sits above the northern end zone.
About 650 employees are working to have the renovations to the stadium ready for football in late November.
The new viewing plaza will be the grand entryway to the redesigned stadium.
"The deck itself is 20,000 square feet, so, that will accommodate about 3,000 people. I hope people go to their seats and don't just stay here at the plaza deck all the time, but it's a beautiful view. You can see the entire stadium, but you can also see the lake," Dyer said.
Officials say the project is helping put many struggling citizens to work.
