The three range hood models can only vent air through ducts that lead outside. It needs to be noted that they are not capable of recycling the air within the room.
Aiken, SC (PRWEB) January 20, 2013
Cavaliere range hoods are designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors, and odors from the cook top area. For best results, it is advisable to start the range hood before cooking and allow it to operate several minutes after the cooking is completed to clear all smoke and odors from the kitchen.
The wall mount range hoods are crafted from 19 gauge stainless steel in satin finish. The three range hood models can only vent air through ducts that lead outside. It needs to be noted that they are not capable of recycling the air within the room. The range hoods are equipped with two 35W dimmable halogen lights; they are electronically controlled with 4 touch sensitive buttons: power on/off, lights on/off, increase, and decrease the motor speed.
The motor used in Cavaliere range hoods is ultra-quiet and capable of moving up to 860 cubic feet of air per minute. The noise levels produced by the blower range from 35 dB to 68 dB; this can be compared to a noise ranging from a quiet conversation (35 dB) to a normal conversation (65 dB). The range hoods are equipped with a 6" round duct vent.
The model AP238-PSL-30 has a 30" wide by 19 3/4" deep canopy. The telescopic chimney extends from 23" to 40" (measured from the top of the canopy); the canopy is 7 3/8" tall, thus the overall height can be adjusted from 30 3/8" to 47 3/8". The range hood is designed for 8 to 9 foot ceilings; however the measurement that needs to be taken into consideration is the distance between the cooktop and the bottom of the canopy which is recommended to be between 28" and 31" for efficient air evacuation from the cooking area.
The model AP238-PSL-36 has a 36" wide by 19 3/4" deep canopy. All other characteristics are the same as of the aforementioned model AP238-PSL-30.
The last Cavaliere range hood model added recently to Warehouse USA's inventory is AP238-PSL-42, which has a 42" wide by 19 3/4" deep canopy. The hood's characteristics and installation recommendations are the same as for two previous models.
Cavaliere kitchen range hoods are available at Warehouse USA – http://warehouse-usa.com; they are on sale with free shipping throughout 48 contiguous states. For more technical information or if in doubt please don't hesitate to call 888-693-8066.

Sentinel: the slab serif that works.
For everyone who's ever wished Clarendons had italics, everyone whose favorite slab serif is shy a few weights, and everyone who's ever needed a slab serif to thrive in text: we designed Sentinel for you.
The first slab serifs were designed to be oddities. It was their intention to be eye-catching, to be novelties amidst the world's conventional book types. Never mind that some of these faces treated different letters inconsistently, or had inherent qualities that limited the size of their families: these were eccentricities, and to a novelty typeface, eccentricity is strength. Two centuries later, their legacy includes three beloved species of typeface that are handsome, popular, and maddeningly difficult to use. Each is marred by a crippling deficiency, a situation inspiring us to create Sentinel.
A slab serif whose capital O is close to a perfect circle is called a Geometric. Its capital H will have horizontal and vertical strokes that appear the same weight, a policy that's consistently applied throughout the entire alphabet. If the strokes are inflated beyond a certain weight, it becomes impossible to create a matching lowercase: the structural complexity of the lowercase a, e and g limits how heavy the design can go before these characters close in on themselves. The Geometric that maxes out at the Bold weight can only achieve a Black by compromising the underlying design, and in a typeface characterized by rigid geometries, these kinds of concessions can be glaringly obvious.
An early compromise was the introduction of contrast, which allowed horizontal strokes to remain thinner than vertical ones. This approach, which made it possible to create lowercase letters in extreme weights, proved to be an attractive motif among the capitals as well, and the resulting style became popular under the name Antique. A cousin of the Antique is the Clarendon, which adds rounded brackets that connect its serifs and stems, a useful feature that gives bolder faces the appearance of extra weight. These brackets are consequently a liability in lighter weights, where they begin to overpower the letters themselves, and in counterpoint to Geometrics that lack heavier weights, Clarendons rarely have lighter ones. Their absence of a Book weight makes Clarendons useless for text, a fate sealed by a greater problem which they share with Antiques: neither have italics.
Sentinel was designed to address the many shortcomings of the classical slab serif. Unbound by traditions that deny italics, by technologies that limit its design, or by ornamental details that restrict its range of weights, Sentinel is a fresh take on this useful and lovely style, offering for the first time a complete family that's serviceable for both text and display. From the Antique style it borrows a program of contrasting thicks and thins, but trades that style's frumpier mannerisms for more attractive contemporary details. It improves on both Clarendons and Geometrics by including a complete range of styles, six weights from Light to Black that are consistent in both style and quality. Planned from the outset to flourish in small sizes as well as large, Sentinel contains features like short-ranging figures that make it a dependable choice for text. And most mercifully, it includes thoughtfully designed italics across its entire range of weights.
Sentinel ScreenSmart: High-Performance Webfonts
Sentinel ScreenSmart is an adaptation of the family specifically engineered for the screen, and available for use on the web through Cloud.typography. To ensure outstanding rendering on screen at sizes as small as nine pixels, we carefully adjusted the fonts' fit, color, and proportions, and orchestrated their progression of weights so that each style is distinctly different from its neighbors. Like all ScreenSmart fonts, Sentinel ScreenSmart is equipped with a set of detailed instructions called "hints," which tell its outlines how to adapt themselves to pixel grids at different point sizes, to ensure that the fonts always retain both their legibility and their personality.

The Odyssey of Therapeutic Vaccines for HIV
Spring 2012
Table of Contents
In the earliest days after the discovery of HIV in the mid-1980s, uncertainty reigned regarding how the immune system responded to the virus. Initially, it was thought that the time between HIV infection and the development of severe immuno-deficiency and disease represented a period of viral inactivity or latency. In this context, it seemed logical to propose that perhaps vaccination could be used to bolster immune response to HIV and thus delay or even prevent the development of illness.
But the first efforts toward this goal quickly mired therapeutic vaccine research in controversy, casting an initial pall across the field that was compounded by the failure of any candidate to show significant efficacy. Additionally, the scientific rationale for the approach evolved as more was learned about the pathogenesis of HIV infection and the types of immune responses that may be effective -- and ineffective -- at controlling the virus. After a period in which enthusiasm regarding the prospects for therapeutic vaccines waned, the recent resurgence in interest in research aiming to cure HIV infection has offered new reasons to pursue their development.
The controversy that attended the earliest research into therapeutic vaccination began in the mid-1980s when a French scientist named Daniel Zagury obtained a vaccinia virus from the National Institutes of Health that had been modified to include several components from HIV, and proceeded to test it in both HIV-infected and -uninfected individuals in Paris and Zaire without appropriate regulatory approval (the vaccinia construct had been created only for the purpose of conducting studies in animals). Several of the HIV-infected participants died, and this fact was omitted from published reports about the experiments (which instead attempted to suggest the vaccine was efficacious).
Following quickly on the heels of this debacle were two more woeful contretemps relating to therapeutic HIV vaccine candidates. A company named MicroGeneSys created a vaccine containing the HIV gp160 protein, and Robert Redfield, a scientist with the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, conducted trials in people with HIV. At the International AIDS Conference in Amsterdam in 1992, Redfield claimed the preliminary results were encouraging but quickly came under fire for overstating the findings. The situation was aggravated by a successful attempt to secure a $20 million congressional appropriation specifically to conduct an efficacy trial of the vaccine, bypassing normal research review mechanisms (this money was ultimately redirected after Redfield's initial analysis was shown to be unreliable).
The International AIDS Conference in Berlin in 1993 was the site of the third blow to the credibility of therapeutic HIV vaccine research. A great deal of enthusiasm had attended Jonas Salk's venture into the field in the late 1980s, when he described the development of a vaccine comprising a whole-killed HIV isolate that was intended to be tested as a preventive and therapeutic vaccine. Due to regulatory concerns about the safety of killed vaccines in HIV-negative individuals, Salk focused on therapeutic studies. Results were hotly anticipated and due to be presented in Berlin, but they were not debuted at the conference itself, but rather at a news conference; this decision fostered distrust and anger among attendees before the data were even described. The unimpressive outcomes of the trials, which Salk and the Immune Response Corporation (the company set up to produce the vaccine) tried to spin positively, served as the final insult.
As these disasters piled up, scientific advances were also undermining the original rationale for the approach. The notion that HIV was latent during the asymptomatic phase of the infection was overturned by data showing that the virus was constantly replicating, and that this replication was accompanied by the ongoing proliferation and death of CD4 T cells. Improvements in tools for evaluating immune responses revealed that there is a massive specific response to HIV that, in most individuals, is unable to control viral replication, leading to a situation where the immune system essentially flails away at the virus throughout the course of infection. Furthermore, CD4 T cells responding to HIV (HIV-specific CD4 T cells) were shown to be preferentially infected, contributing to their poor functionality and inability to deliver appropriate help to the other vital components of an antiviral immune response: CD8 T cells, whose primary task is to recognize and kill virus-infected cells, and B cells, which generate antibodies that -- when effective -- glom onto free floating viral particles and prevent them infecting new cells. These findings seriously called into question the idea that adding more HIV antigens into the mix via therapeutic vaccination -- when the virus itself was failing to induce protective immunity -- would be beneficial. While research did not entirely come to a halt, it was not viewed as a priority, and hopes for a successful therapeutic vaccine faded.
A Second Try
The burgeoning success of triple combinations of antiretroviral drugs (ART) in the mid-1990s might have been expected to further erode interest in therapeutic vaccines, but it ultimately led to a mild revival in interest, for two main reasons. Firstly, the drugs were clearly imperfect in terms of safety and side effects, leading to interest in approaches that might allow intermittent or delayed use of ART. Secondly, the profound suppression of HIV replication mediated by ART facilitated reconstitution of the immune system, and some scientists speculated that this may offer an opportunity to use vaccines to induce new HIV-specific immune responses that could develop (or "mature" in vaccine parlance) without interference from HIV because the drugs were keeping the virus at bay.
These ideas prompted a slew of new trials combining a variety of vaccine candidates with ART. These candidates included Salk's whole-killed vaccine (now called Remune), attenuated viruses used as vectors to deliver HIV antigens (such as the canarypox-based ALVAC and cowpox-based MVA), and "naked DNA" constructs that deliver the genetic code for making vaccine antigens into cells. Data were generated showing that HIV-specific CD4 and CD8 T-cell responses could be induced in individuals with suppressed viral loads, and in some cases laboratory tests suggested that the functionality of these T-cell responses was markedly superior to those present prior to vaccination. But the harder question to answer was whether these apparent immunologic effects of therapeutic vaccines could be translated into a measurable health benefit.
Remune underwent testing in a large, randomized, placebo-controlled phase III trial that evaluated whether vaccination reduced morbidity and mortality in people with HIV, the vast majority of whom were on ART. No significant differences in the incidence of opportunistic infections or deaths were seen, but the interpretation of the results was complicated by the fact that the standard of care for ART evolved from dual- to triple therapy while the trial was ongoing, and that there were -- happily -- very few endpoints in both the Remune and placebo arms. Because the effectiveness of ART made it essentially impossible to demonstrate an additional benefit from therapeutic vaccination, alternative study designs became more common. There were two main approaches. The first was to immunize individuals on ART and then evaluate the effects on CD4 T-cell levels and viral load during an ART interruption (in hopes of allowing extended breaks from ART). The second was to administer therapeutic vaccines to individuals with early infection prior to ART initiation (in hopes of being able to show a delay in reaching CD4 thresholds indicating a need for ART). Data from these types of trials occasionally hinted that receipt of therapeutic vaccines was associated with better preservation of CD4 T-cell counts and slightly lower viral loads during ART interruptions, although at least one trial of ALVAC showed the opposite. A still-unpublished South African trial of a DNA vaccine suggested that it might have slightly delayed CD4 T-cell declines and the associated indication for ART.

The Good Husband's Guide
*Several years ago, an email circulated purporting to contain an article from a 1955 magazine called Housekeeping Monthly. It has now been revealed as a hoax - but at the time I wrote this article, over ten years ago now, no one knew that. I wrote about this episode believing it was legitimate, and even though I know now that it was not, my thoughts on the mindset behind whoever decided to create this fiction have not changed. Furthermore, no other page on this site has received more email, or been more misunderstood and misquoted. I was even interviewed on Australian radio over it, even though they, too, misunderstood my meaning.
In May of 1955, a magazine called Housekeeping Monthly ran a short point-form article called "The Good Wife's Guide." The article is unaccredited, but I am sure that like many other articles written in 1950's women's magazine, it was probably written by a woman. This article was sent around by email to all the workstations in my office, and probably visited many other inboxes around the world as well.
These are some of the suggestions that appeared alongside a cheerful picture of a woman in high heels and pearls taking cookies out of the oven as her pin-striped husband comes home looking for a chaste little peck on the cheek:
* Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready, on time for his return. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospect of a good meal (especially his favorite dish) is part of the warm welcome needed.
* Prepare yourself. Take fifteen minutes to rest so you'll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people.
* Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.
* Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives.
* Over the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering to his personal comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.
* Be happy to see him.
* Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him.
* Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not one of them. Let him talk first - remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours.
* Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or goes out to dinner or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be at home and relax.
* Your goal: Try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order and tranquility where your husband can renew himself body and spirit.
* Don't complain if he's late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day.
* Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or have him lie down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him.
* Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.
* A good wife always knows her place.
I admit that when I first read this list I laughed. It is so hopelessly out of date now that I can hardly imagine any modern woman taking it seriously. I found it hard to believe that any person would seriously abdicate their right to question the actions of their spouse, or that any person would sincerely believe that their thoughts and concerns are of minimal importance next to those of their partner, but I know that situations like this were not at all uncommon in the 1950's. I'm sure that scores of earnest young housewives took this advice to heart back in 1955, never imagining that their daughters would grow up to laugh at it with so much disbelief. Women were each other's harshest critics back then, just as they are today, and it was common for the female-written magazines to preach obedience and servitude, orgasmic rapture over kitchen appliances, beauty, poise and above all silence, in the wide-eyed young readers who looked to them for advice.
But after reading it again, and after noting that whoever had sent this email had also taken the trouble to circle the last item - about knowing a wife's place - in red marker, I realized that this item was not intended to make me laugh. Neither was it intended to illustrate how much our society - men and women - has changed since that confusing decade after the second world war, a time when women thought it best to return to the only kind of femininity they knew after having done of the work of men in wartime factories. The article was intended to encourage in me an outraged gasp of shock, an indignant yelp of estrogen-based anger, a condemnation of men everywhere and a heartfelt wail of sorrow for all my lost sisters, doomed to a high-heeled life of slavery to the Frigidaire. I had been duped, like most people had, into reading more propaganda about how lousy it is to be a woman and what self-centered, socially and economically privileged pompous asses men have always been.
It's a lucrative business, this making men out to be the cause of all our woe. No one knows exactly how much public funding radical women's groups get, but it climbs easily into the multi-millions per year. A great many women owe their livelihood to the fact that male-bashing is not only condoned, it's fashionable and moral and considered turn about for all the centuries of "abuse" women have supposedly suffered; a great many paychecks and grants and bursaries would dry up completely if men weren't such an easy target, a ready-made devil figure to justify these expenditures and all that ink. One way to make sure that no one ever forgets that men are evil bastards - not even for a second, not even in a era when the society they live in no longer hinders women in any way - is to send little emails around and to put up little posters in university hallways and the like. If they have to go back fifty years to find a suitable example, so be it. Anything rather than presenting a more balanced and more accurate accounting of relations between the sexes.
How many feminists, for example, send out emails reminding us that in 1955, the average work week included Saturday and required 10-12 hour days, or that the financial burden of providing for home and family on one salary, without even the possibility of financial contribution from their spouse, placed men of that generation under enormous pressure? Besides which, how many feminists remind their faithful that in 1955, there was nothing to stop women from holding down jobs of their own and foregoing marriage altogether if they chose, or having a career while being a wife and mother too? Barbara Billingsley, the quintessential fifties super-mom-in-pearls whom most feminists see as an icon of repression and a prime example of everything that's wrong with domesticity, was herself a working mother, an actress with a full time job and a family at the same time.
We never hear about these things, of course, because it goes against the political agenda of those who would profit from painting women as long suffering and men as the agents of our grief. Neither do we ever hear about the opposite side of the issue, about the demands and expectations we place - and have always placed - on men.
So I came up with my own list, something that could have appeared in Housekeeping Monthly or some such similar advice magazine for men. It would have been based on the same premise that the Good Wife's Guide is built on - that the husband works at a job to provide for his family while his wife stays home to raise the kids and run the household. It would have been called "The Good Husband's Guide", and it would have gone something like this:
* Always make getting and keeping a full-time job with regular raises, benefits, bonuses and the potential for prestigious advancement your number one priority in life. Remember always that you have a wife and children who need your financial support, and that it is your responsibility to provide for them to the best of your ability.
* Always arrive home refreshed and happy - put your bad day or your confrontation with your boss, the traffic, the crowds or the physical exhaustion you might feel aside and try to arrive home as cheery and lighthearted as you possibly can. Your wife has been struggling with the children and the housework all day, she does not need to hear about how bad your day was.
* Be prepared to help with household chores when you get home - let your wife relax or talk on the phone since she has been dealing with these problems all day. Make supper for her often, and offer to clean up afterwards so that she may rest and feel appreciated.
* Do not bore your wife with stories of the troubles you faced at work today. Remember that you are lucky to have a job and that many other men would be happy to trade places with you. Remember that it is not masculine to complain or let worries trouble you. Your job is to provide, and whatever you must go through to achieve this is part of your lot in life. A good husband knows that he is lucky to have a wife at all, and that a woman wants a strong, silent man she can depend on.
* Never expect your wife to have contributed to the smooth operation of the household. She has had a busy day and cannot be expected to provide meals or clean clothes for you. Never insult her by asking her to do such things while you're out earning money. Be mindful always that your wife may think you are being sexist if you ask her to help make a home for your family as part of your partnership.
* Be prepared to account for your whereabouts every minute of the day, including an explanation as to why you were away from the phone when she tried to call or why you were unable to chat with her for twenty minutes when she did get through to you. You must always put her interests first, and be mindful of her natural suspicion about her husband's activities. A good husband knows that men can't be trusted, and that a wife has every reason to believe you will hurt and humiliate her.
* Do not grumble or gripe about handing over your paycheck to her - she is in control of your finances and knows better than you how to spend or invest your money. Never assume that the money you earn is yours to do with as you will - you have a family to think about now, and their needs must always come before your own.
* Listen avidly to your wife's complaints. She leads a hectic life and needs to feel listened to and appreciated. Never suggest ways in which she might solve whatever problem is vexing her. You need only listen; your suggestions are likely insensitive and unfeeling anyway. And do not counter with complaints of your own. She would love to have the chance to leave the house and work, she does not need to hear about how difficult your job is.
* Be prepared to give up your weeknights or weekends to whatever projects or socializing your wife has in mind. If she has determined that cleaning out the garage or painting the upstairs bathroom would be the best use of your time, never complain that you would like to relax or pursue personal interests instead. She has every right to expect that you will make repairs to the house or help her redecorate during your time off. Do not be so selfish as to ask for personal time. You are a family man now, you do not have the luxury of personal time.
* Always be prepared to take over in caring for the children when you get home from work. Your wife has been busy all day and deserves some quiet time. Allow her to watch television or chat with her friends on the phone, go shopping or simply relax. They are your children too, and it is unfair of you to expect to come home from a twelve hour day and simply put your feet up.
* Never grumble about having to support children you didn't want to have. If you were irresponsible enough to help her get pregnant, then it is your duty to pay for that child for the next eighteen years. If you decide to have sex, you must know that pregnancy may result and be fully prepared to take responsibility for it. This, of course, does not apply to her. She doesn't have to be responsible for her actions, and can abort a child she conceived any time she wants, whether this breaks your heart or not. Accept this stoically. She has the special privilege of being able to kill her unborn child, carry it to term and give it up for adoption, or have it and raise it all by herself if she wants, but you have the responsibility of simply living with whatever choice she makes and quite often paying for it, too. Remember, you have no right to be a parent and no right not to be a parent, you are just a man. A good husband knows his place.
There is one main difference between the Good Wife's Guide and the above. The first list is outdated and laughable in its attitudes towards women; the second list, however, could be printed today since every single sentiment expressed in it is practiced, believed and upheld by modern wives and by the culture at large.
Although the Good Husband's Guide is just as offensive, just as insulting, just as sexist, and just as accurate a picture of the plight of some modern husbands, it will never make the email rounds as a rallying cry for anything. No one so much as blinks at the way husbands are treated in this era, and never will as long as men are so thoroughly unappreciated and so completely abused, but proud enough, strong enough, and mature enough not to complain.

毋庸置疑,亚洲的经济正在高速成长,但地区内因强烈的民族主义而出现的紧张局势表明,在加强经济集成化的同时,还需建立区域安全结构。正如美国学者李侃如(Kenneth Lieberthal)和北京大学国际关系学院院长王缉思在近期发布的论文中提到的,"战略互疑"让局势更加错综复杂。二十一世纪的世界级大国建立战略互信将是保证国际体系和谐运作的关键所在。那么如何做到战略互信呢?2020年之前,中国用油的四分之三将来自中东地区,要在战略互信的方向迈进一步,中国就应秉持合作理念,解决中东地区问题。
America's Perilous Pivot
by Javier Solana 2012年11月26日project syndicate
The Pacific or the Middle East? For the United States, that is now the primary strategic question. The violence in Gaza, coming as President Barack Obama was meeting Asia's leaders in Phnom Penh, perfectly encapsulates America's dilemma. Instead of being able to focus on US foreign policy's "pivot" to Asia, Obama was forced to spend many hours in conversation with the leaders of Egypt and Israel, and to dispatch Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from Asia, in order to facilitate a cease-fire in Gaza.
Of the two geopolitical focal points demanding America's attention, one represents the future and the other the past. Whereas Asia played an important role in a US presidential election campaign that was marked by often-heated references to China's rise, the Middle East has kept the US bogged down for decades. In addition to the eternal Israel-Palestine conflict, Iraq's instability, the Arab Spring, Syria's civil war, and the ongoing nuclear standoff with Iran all demand America's attention.
If the Iran crisis were to boil over, the pivot to Asia would no longer be America's main foreign-policy priority. But if the dispute with Iran is resolved diplomatically, the Middle East might, perhaps, be relegated to a position of lesser importance, as Obama clearly desires. The question, therefore, is whether the US will find itself drawn into another war in a region on which it depends less and less for energy.
Indeed, the revolution in non-conventional hydrocarbons, particularly shale gas and oil, which the International Energy Agency recently predicted would make the US the world's largest oil producer by 2020, and the top energy producer overall by 2030, will have enormous global repercussions. For the US, energy self-sufficiency is the perfect excuse for a phased withdrawal from the Middle East; freed from energy dependency, America should be able to concentrate on the Pacific.
Although maintaining stable global energy prices and its alliance with Israel means that the US cannot cut itself off completely from the Middle East's troubles, the shift in focus to Asia began early in Obama's first administration, with Clinton announcing America's strategic reorientation even before US troops began withdrawing from Iraq. Following his re-election, Obama's first foreign visit was to Myanmar, Thailand, and Cambodia – a choice that cannot have pleased China, as all three are ASEAN members, while Myanmar was, until it began its democratic transition, a close Chinese ally.
Asia is, of course, experiencing rapid economic growth, but managing the region's strong nationalist tensions calls for the creation of regional security structures, together with closer economic integration. Complicating matters even more is what US scholar Kenneth Lieberthal and Wang Jisi, the dean of international studies at Peking University, called in a recent paper for the Brookings Institution "strategic distrust."
Cultivating strategic trust between the twenty-first century's leading powers will be fundamental to the international system's harmonious functioning. But how can this be achieved? As China will be importing three-quarters of its oil from the Middle East by 2020, one step forward would be China's cooperation in finding solutions to the region's problems.
After the January 2013 Israeli elections, Iran will again move to the top of Obama's foreign-policy agenda. Military intervention in Iran – which itself will be holding a presidential election in June – would incite not only regional, but global, instability. The Arab world, Russia, and China would be forced to take sides, straining global relations between the different poles of power and raising tensions in the Pacific. So China has a large strategic interest in working with the US to avoid a showdown.
Beyond Iran, the volatile situation throughout the Middle East urgently demands solutions. The latest eruption of violent conflict between Hamas and Israel underscores the importance of reviving the peace process. Syria's civil war, in which a growing number of regional players have become involved, is beginning to look increasingly like a trial run for all-out war between Sunni Muslims (Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf States, Turkey, and Egypt) and Shia Muslims (Iran and Hezbollah) for regional dominance.
Iran's leaders appear to believe that the US, having incurred extremely high economic and human costs from more than a decade of war, would rather avoid another military intervention. US public opinion seems to confirm this. A recent survey by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs indicated that 67% of Americans believe that the Iraq war was not worthwhile. Moreover, 69% do not believe that the US is safer from terrorism since the war in Afghanistan, and 71% say that the experience in Iraq shows that the US should take greater care in how it uses force.
But, if Americans seem unlikely to be willing to invest billions of dollars in another dead-end foreign adventure, Iran's leaders, for their part, are increasingly hemmed in by international sanctions, which are beginning to wreak havoc on the country's economy. Both sides may believe that their best option – at least for now – is to negotiate.
Peaceful resolution of the Iranian question would help the US to complete its shift toward Asia. China may not wish for that outcome, but its own vital interest in the security of Middle East energy supplies should compel it to cooperate. After all, another Middle East conflict would poison and distort relations in the region for decades, which would be the worst of all possible consequences – for the US and China alike.

What It Takes To Land A Job
Battalion Chief Paul Lepore
Landing a job in the fire service is truly a unique challenge. On average, there are over 100 candidates who apply for each opening. Since the competition is so intense, what does it take to be the top candidate?
Many candidates believe it is important to be the "most qualified" individual in the testing process. The truth is that we are looking for someone who will fit into our family. In short, we have an opening that we need to fill. Since we can choose whomever we want, we want to choose someone we like. Those candidates who become known to us either before or during the testing process have a better chance of scoring well on the exam.
The best way to become someone who stands out in the hiring process is to understand the role of a firefighter. This can best be accomplished by taking fire science courses at the local junior college or online. Another way to gain knowledge and experience in the fire service is to become a volunteer or reserve firefighter. These candidates will have made a name for themselves long before the testing process.
Candidates often volunteer for departmental activities. These activities include departmental BBQ's, CPR training events for the community and any other opportunities that may arise to give a candidate a chance to be visible to the members of the department. As you are flipping burgers, it is entirely possible that a captain, battalion chief or even the fire chief will stop you and introduce him or herself. This is your opportunity meet influential people on the department. Once the introductions are made, the conversation often steers toward what you are doing. This is your opportunity to explain that it is your goal to become a member of the department.
Most departments have a minimum passing score for the written exam and physical agility tests. This leaves the bulk of the score (oftentimes 100%) for the oral interview. Since we are looking to hire people we like and want to have as part of our family, it is imperative that the oral board knows who you are before you walk in the door. This may be extremely difficult on a large department since there are just too many people to meet. On a smaller department it is possible to "make the rounds" to all or most of the fire stations before your oral interview. Imagine what an incredible opportunity it would be to take a practice interview with experienced firefighters.
It is important to note that you are establishing your reputation the minute you walk into the fire station. If you make a favorable impression, the firefighters will help you and maybe even pass positive information to the oral board. The same thing can be said if you make a poor showing.
It is impossible for the board to get to know you within a 20 – 30 minute interview. A candidate who maximizes his or her time before the interview by spending time in the stations and getting to know the firefighters can vastly improve his or her score. If the firefighters like you, they can put in a word to the oral board. If the oral board doesn't have a good feel for you there is no way you will score in the top.
The way we score candidates is different than most people would expect. If the board consists of two or three firefighters, the minute you walk out the door we look at each other and try to decide if we want you on our crew. If the interviewers really like you they will score you in the high 90's. If they thought you were the average "vanilla" candidate with the usual complement of fire science classes, maybe even the academy and a reserve firefighter position, you will be in the low to mid 80's. If the board really doesn't like your demeanor or feels like you were completely unprepared for the interview, you will be below the minimum score of 70%.
If you have already taken fire department examinations, reflect back to your oral interview scores and try to interpret what the board is trying to tell you. If you are in the high 90's I would suggest that you make sure you are in top physical condition. You are on the brink of being hired. Don't change what you are doing, as you are already on the right track.
If you have taken a plethora of fire science courses and are doing all the right things to get a job, but still find yourself in the low to mid 80's, you need to re-evaluate how you are performing on your interviews. It is important to remember that it is not about having more qualifications than the next candidate; it's about coming across as someone we want to have on our crew. If you already have all of the wallpaper (certificates and classes) and you are not scoring well, you have a serious problem. It's time to seek some outside advice. Your best bet is to find as many people as you can to give you mock interviews. Hopefully someone can identify what you are doing wrong and stop you from spinning your wheels.
If you scored below a 70% and this was your first or second exam, don't worry, as it's a long process. Continue taking fire science courses and learn as much as you can about the fire service. The more you understand about our culture and idiosyncrasies, the more you will be able to prove you are ready for the position.
The fire service is a unique occupation. There is no matrix to follow to ensure you will be offered a position. It's actually the opposite. A candidate can have all of the horsepower known to mankind and still not be offered a position, while a candidate who has never taken a single class is offered a job on his or her first examination. To an outsider it may be quite perplexing. To an insider we all understand it is about being the person we all want to have on our crew. It really is not that complicated.

New Mexico chile producers are about to get a boost from real rocket scientists. The U.S. Department of Energy's Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, which often does research on advanced weapon design, has agreed to aim its engineering horsepower at improving mechanical chile harvesters.
Under a new agreement, the New Mexico Chile Pepper Task Force and Sandia's New Mexico Small Business Assistance (NMSBA) program will focus on a troublesome problem farmers have as chile is harvested: too much of the plant is picked along with the peppers.
The Chile Pepper Task Force, formed in 1998, identifies and implements ways to keep the state's chile production profitable. It includes growers, harvester manufacturers, and New Mexico State University scientists and Cooperative Extension Service specialists. The task force has three major working groups focusing on mechanical harvesting, drip irrigation and best management practices.
"We're looking for new ideas," said Richard Phillips, a project manager with NMSU's Cooperative Extension Service and coordinator of the Chile Pepper Task Force. "These people may not know the chile industry, but they do know a lot about engineering and physics, and that might be helpful in separating trash from good chile."
In hand harvesting, a grower can selectively pick chile pods, explained Ed Hughs, research leader at USDA's Southwestern Cotton Ginning Research Laboratory in Las Cruces and a founding member of the Chile Task Force.
In mechanically harvesting, the machine is much less discerning. "It'll take branches and sometimes whole plants," he said.
The NMSBA program allows Sandia officials to give $150,000 worth of technical advice and assistance to a consortium of 15 southern New Mexico small businesses under the auspices of the task force. A Sandia spokesperson said the NMSBA program allows Sandia to give up to $10,000/year worth of technical advice and assistance to individual small businesses throughout New Mexico. Other projects throughout the state cover a range of businesses and problems, from helping a small-town firm make a better lava aggregate building material to helping a rural winery solve a processing problem.
As part of a field level review of mechanized chile harvesting, Sandia sent a hands-on team of four engineers, along with the director and project manager of the small business initiative, to southern New Mexico in early October. Shortly after the technical assessment, Sandia officials notified task force officials that the lab, which is operated by Sandia Corp., a Lockheed Martin Co., would be able to provide technical engineering support.
"Between now and December we'll be working on the scope of the work, and what kind of expertise they might be able to bring to the project," Phillips said.
Looking ahead, he said, the goal is to design and develop new prototype cleaning equipment in time for next season's crop.
There's an underlying sense of urgency now in moving the research forward. The window of opportunity for developing a mechanical harvesting process is narrowing.
"We only have about five to 10 years before we don't have a commercial red chile market," said James Libbin, a farm management specialist with NMSU's Cooperative Extension Service in Las Cruces. Competition is heating up from countries around the globe that pay very low wages. Hand labor accounts for more than half the cost of chile production.
New Mexico's $200 million chile processing industry has begun the changeover process. In the last decade few of the state's 19,000 acres of pepper production, which includes paprika, cayenne, jalapeño, long green and hot peppers, were mechanically harvested. Now, much of the eastern New Mexico crop is machine harvested, and there's interest on the practice in the Mesilla Valley, as well as in west Texas and eastern Arizona.

Supplementing Their Income
A Nutrition Action Exposé on How Dr. Weil, Dr. Phil, and Larry King Turn Your Trust into Cash
A folksy, popular daytime television host. A legendary radio and television interviewer. And a best-selling author and health guru whose familiar bearded face recently appeared on the cover of Time magazine.
These three men have one thing in common, according to the cover story in the current issue of Nutrition Action Healthletter. They all use their fame to hawk vitamins, herbs, and other dietary supplements that often rely on inflated claims and dubious (or nonexistent) science. Consumers who buy these products may be overpaying or wasting their money entirely, according to CSPI.
Dr. Andrew Weil is the nation's best-known proponent of alternative, or integrative, medicine. His books, speeches, television appearances, and popular websites have made him a trusted household name in health advice. He offers himself to the public and the media as an informed, sensible authority on dietary supplements.
"But Weil is hardly an objective expert on supplements," says CSPI senior nutritionist David Schardt. "The more supplements Weil can persuade consumers to buy, the more he benefits. Consumers should bear that in mind when they listen to his advice."
Weil markets his own brand of 18 vitamin and herb products and is careful to tell consumers that his "after-tax profits go to a foundation that supports integrative medicine." But he rarely discloses that this is not just "a" foundation, but his own Weil Foundation and that its main beneficiary is Weil's own program at the University of Arizona.
What's more, CSPI's review of the 2002-2004 tax returns for the Weil Foundation, the latest available, found that during those years the foundation reported no contributions from Weil or his company and awarded only one $5,000 grant.
But it's the vast sums of money Weil and his company are being paid to promote dietary supplements that CSPI says would really raise consumers' eyebrows—if they knew about it.
In 2003, Weil signed a blockbuster five-year deal with the giant online pharmacy drugstore.com that pays Weil's company and his foundation a guaranteed minimum of $12.4 million in sales commissions and donations on dietary supplements and other products he recommends to consumers at his and drugstore.com's websites. In addition, drugstore.com agreed to pay Weil himself $1.6 million in "honoraria." This financial arrangement came to light only last summer when the company sued Weil for not promoting their products aggressively enough.
"Consumers should know that when they buy any supplements recommended by Andrew Weil on his and drugstore.com's websites, Weil's company is collecting a sales commission of up to 25 percent on every bottle," says CSPI's David Schardt. "Even if some of this money eventually trickles down to his foundation, that's still a pretty big incentive to push lots of vitamins and herbs, even where the evidence is dubious."
For instance, Weil sells his own brand of evening primrose oil, which he recommends for skin conditions, brittle fingernails, arthritis, and PMS. (Drugstore.com pays Weil's company a sales commission of $2.00 to $3.50 on every bottle he sells on the Internet.) But virtually all of the well-designed scientific studies show that evening primrose oil is ineffective for dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, brittle nails, and PMS, according to an analysis of the research by CSPI. One study did find that the substance helped reduce the tender and swollen joints of rheumatoid arthritis, but only at a dose 28 times higher than Weil sells.
The other celebrities that CSPI says have leased out their names to companies making iffy claims include Phil McGraw (a.k.a. Dr. Phil) and CNN talk show host Larry King. Dr. Phil recently abandoned a line of expensive dietary supplements in the face of a probe by the Federal Trade Commission. Dr. Phil's Shape Up pills were said to contain "scientifically researched levels of ingredients that can help you change your behavior to take control of your weight." Dr. Phil is being sued by California consumers who accuse him (correctly, in CSPI's view) of making false and misleading statements about his supplements
Over the years, CNN's King has done first-person paid testimonials for a wide range of substances, including Garlique garlic pills ("the one to trust," said King), and coral calcium (which "has changed my life and could change yours"). Recently, King has been promoting Ester-C, which CSPI says is an over-hyped brand of vitamin C that is twice as expensive as regular vitamin C.
"Either Larry King has a knack for picking weak products to pitch, or manufacturers seek him out to lend credibility to supplements that could use some," said Schardt.
Weil, McGraw, and King did not respond to Nutrition Action Healthletter's requests for interviews, despite repeated attempts.

The rate of build-up of CO2 in the atmosphere can be reduced by taking advantage of the fact that atmospheric CO2 can accumulate as carbon in vegetation and soils in terrestrial ecosystems. Under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change any process, activity or mechanism which removes a greenhouse gas from the atmosphere is referred to as a "sink". Human activities impact terrestrial sinks, through land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) activities, consequently, the exchange of CO2 (carbon cycle) between the terrestrial biosphere system and the atmosphere is altered.
The role of LULUCF activities in the mitigation of climate change has long been recognized. Mitigation can be achieved through activities in the LULUCF sector that increase the removals of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from the atmosphere or decrease emissions by sources leading to an accumulation of carbon stocks. An important feature of LULUCF activities in this context is their potential reversibility hence, non-permanence of the accumulated carbon stocks.
Forests present a significant global carbon stock accumulated through growth of trees and an increase in soil carbon. Estimates made for Global Forest Resources Assessment 2010 (FRA 2015) show that the world's forests and other wooded lands store more than 485 gigatonnes (1 Gt=1 billion tonnes) of carbon, 260 Gt in the biomass (53 percent), 37 Gt in dead wood and litter (8 percent) and 189 Gt in soil (39 percent). While sustainable management, planting and rehabilitation of forests can conserve or increase forest carbon stocks, deforestation, degradation and poor forest management do reduce carbon stocks. For the world as a whole, carbon stocks in forest biomass decreased by an estimated 0.22 Gt annually during the period 2011-2015. This was mainly because of a reduction in the global forest area.
Topics relating to LULUCF
LULUCF sector under the Convention
LULUCF activities under the Kyoto Protocol
Reducing emissions from deforestation in developing countries
Cooperation with other organizations
The emergence of and continuing significance of issues related to LULUCF has stimulated cooperation with many organizations and institutions with forestry and agriculture experiences.
The United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF). The UNFF is an intergovernmental process with the objective of promoting the management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests. It allows forest policy dialogue facilitated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Forests (IPF) and the Intergovernmental Forum on Forests (IFF).
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The Forestry Department of FAO has considerable experience in, among others, building capacity in developing countries and in assessing the global status of forests. Its work includes the publication of the Global Forest Resources Assessment as a contribution to knowledge on the state of the world's forests.
The Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF). The CPF is s an innovative interagency partnership on forests comprising 14 international organizations, institutions and secretariats that have substantial programmes on forests. The mission of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests is to promote sustainable management of all types of forests and to strengthen long-term political commitment to this end.

It isn't a forgotten concept as long as there are Old Guys still around, for sure, but the switch DID all but elminate "collisions" and the timing problems that led to the worst pathology, and it also dropped the CPU load associated with global network traffic from "tightly coupled" to "minimally coupled". Multicast/broadcast traffic has always been a problem (remember DECNET and Appletalk? Couldn't tie its own shoes without broadcasting to the entire network, so it didn't NEED external nucleation, being on one of the networks beyond a certain size was sort of like living in a perpetual storm:-) but it is much BETTER than it used to be, at least. I don't know why ganglia uses multcasts. Old Guys also remember rwhod, a very early Sun daemon that basically was part of the "network is the computer" thing they had going. Every few seconds, it would wake up and broadcast more or less what one got out of the "uptime" command, and on clients anyone could enter the "ruptime" command and basically get uptime from the entire LAN (inside the broadcast radius of the nearest broadcast-blocking device). This as fine for tiny LANs with network isolation. For big flat LANs with few bridges, lots of hosts, forwarding of broadcasts (necessary if servers spanned the LAN), well, let's just say it didn't scale and leave it at that. So it isn't like people haven't KNOWN better than to use a broadcast simply forever. Besides, the nodes in most clusters -- or clients in most LANS -- don't all need to know what the other nodes/clients/servers are doing. Management and monitoring is intrinsically master/slavelike -- one host (the one I'm sitting at) wants to access all the information from the node/client/servers. It is intrinsically a serial bottleneck. Persistent network connections and round-robin will intrinsically optimize at least PART of the bottleneck associated with gathering the information. Dumping out multicasts doesn't mean that the toplevel monitoring host isn't serially bottlenecked, it only means it doesn't have any control over what gets sent, collisions, when it handles incoming information. If there were FIFTY hosts each needing information about all the others, multicasts would be good, but when there is just one it seems like they would be bad. Truthfully, one thing I learned writing xmlsysd is that a monitoring system for a cluster IS a parallel application. Different IPC designs have very different scaling. Master-slave is ideal for certain regimes. Multicast or tree structures might well scale better for other regimes. I wrote xmlsysd to work well for relatively small clusters -- out to somewhere over 100 nodes -- or most LANs. I have no idea how well it would work at 1024 nodes -- maybe terribly. And there are still a few small flaws in it that I'd like to work on one day, and probably will if anybody other than myself and the four or five other people that I know of start using it...;-) But nothing show stopping that I know of -- I use it routinely over days of continuous monitoring and it seems to work just fine. rgb -- Robert G.

Kelley softens tone in new books
As news broke this week that author Kitty Kelley's next book will be on women in the 113th Congress, fans might have expected scandalous details fresh off the Hill. No so fast, says the author.
"I have to admit, I'm going in with a very positive bias as a woman who genuinely genuflects to women of achievement, especially that achievement — busting into an all-white, male-exclusive club," Kelley said in an interview with POLITICO.
Story Continued Below
( PHOTOS: Female senators in the 113th Congress)
The author has become a household name thanks to her tomes on such big names as Nancy Reagan, Oprah Winfrey, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra and the Bush family. The books inevitably unearth some juicy nuggets, get people talking and frequently spark the ire of their subjects — including one that had Ronald Reagan saying Kelley's 1991 book on his wife " has no basis in fact and serves no decent purpose."
However, Kelley's most recent book, "Capturing Camelot: Stanley Tretick's Iconic Images of the Kennedys," is hardly the kind of juicy exposé readers might typically expect from Kelley. Instead, it is a nostalgic, photo-heavy look at life inside the Kennedy White House. The same can also be said of her next project, "Let Freedom Ring: Stanley Tretick's Iconic Images of the March on Washington," which comes out this fall and provides a glowing photo tour of the seminal 1963 event.
( Also on POLITICO: Kitty Kelley's next book: Women on the Hill)
So has one of America's best gossip generators gone soft?
"There's still time for redemption if I live long enough, don't you think?" Kelley joked.
"Studies have been done showing that there really are gender differences, that women do bring more congeniality and compromise to the table," Kelley said later. "And I wondered, 'Will they really? Will it make a difference?' Congress is the most hated institution in our country, so maybe the women will be the salvation. … Maybe I'll find out they're just the same. I don't know."

She knows that she could write another unauthorized biography about an intriguing character, but she wants to remain focused on "worthy subjects." She said she recently was offered $4 million to do a book on Donald Trump but told the publisher, "I'd pay you $4 million not to do it, because I don't want to invest four years of my life on an unworthy subject.

Airbus jets could be converted to fuel-cell propulsion
Only on the ground, though
Plans are afoot to propel Airbus A320 airliners using clean, green electricity, according to reports. Disappointingly for the carbon-fearing and oil-worrier lobbies alike, however, the aircraft will be so propelled only while on the ground.
"We are looking at installing electric motors in the wheels," Airbus A320 honcho Alain Flourens told Flight magazine yesterday.
The idea is that the big planes would thus be able to taxi about in airports without needing to fire up their main engines. This would happen only once the aircraft was ready for takeoff, and the jets would be shut down again after landing.
Initially at least, the wheel motors would draw their juice from the regular auxiliary power unit (APU) a small gas turbine carried by most airliners in their tails for generating electricity. But this would involve much less wasted energy than running the main engines for taxiing, and would reduce emissions around the airport if not in the upper atmosphere.
There is some prospect in future that gas-turbine APUs might be superseded by fuel cells - Boeing have mooted this possibility, for instance, following an otherwise rather pointless demonstration effort. That could make airliners quite green while on the ground - depending on the sources of the fuel-cell's juice, of course.
Colourful beardy biz kingpin Richard Branson has lately sought to use a somewhat similar idea with his Virgin fleet, in which the jets would have been towed to and from the runway by ground vehicles. This is sometimes done for various reasons with empty aircraft, but it was found that towing fully-loaded planes put unacceptable strains on their undercarriages, and the idea had to be abandoned.
It's not clear at first sight how the Airbus wheel-motor scheme would avoid similar problems, but presumably Flourens knows what he's on about.
In many ways, one has to say it hardly matters: measures such as this are perhaps worth pursuing, but they're hardly going to solve the issues of airline carbon emission, energy security and/or peak oil.

So now it's official. American college basketball really is our sleaziest sport. Because it even induced a nice little college program such as Saint Mary's into cheating.
Oh, you can rant and rail all you want at the NCAA for its rules and investigations. Some of the ranting is justified. But bottom line, Saint Mary's was probably asking for trouble when it started to rely on international players to boost its stature.
Moraga is not exactly the place that comes to mind when you think about slime. But the charming East Bay community that is home to the Saint Mary's campus apparently was the site of nefarious activity, if you believe the NCAA, which placed the school on four years' probation for "failure to monitor its men's basketball program."
The actual punishment — which does not include an NCAA tournament ban — will hurt mostly in the sense of tarnishing Randy Bennett's reputation. The Saint Mary's coach has been generally regarded as a quirky-smart hoops lifer who somehow managed to create a perennial conference contender at the school through his wits and through clever international recruiting.
According to the NCAA documents that you can read here — mercurynews.com/college-sports/ci_22697080/documents-ncaa-report-saint-marys-college-basketball-program — Bennett might have been too clever about his overseas pursuit of players. Or to be more accurate, he was too laissez-faire in his monitoring of international recruitment being done by one of his former assistant coaches.
That coach, Keith Moss, was also once an assistant on the San Jose State basketball staff. He helped steer French star prospect Olivier Saint-Jean to the Spartans program. Saint-Jean, who subsequently changed his name to Tariq Abdul-Wahad, helped SJSU to its only NCAA tournament appearance in the last few decades and became a first-round NBA draft pick en route to a fairly successful pro career. It seemed strange that Abdul-Wahad would suddenly show up in San Jose with Moss as his guide, but nothing illegal was ever proved.
In the Saint Mary's NCAA paperwork, investigators appear to be vexed about some murky stuff involving impermissible summertime training at the school's gym by outside coaches. The workouts apparently were encouraged by Bennett, who never checked with his school's compliance officer to see if they were legal. But who are we kidding? The sexy part of the accusations involves the information about a foreign player being provided free airfare and shoes and clothes — presumably by Moss — as an inducement to enroll at an American high school with the idea that he would eventually become a Gael. And it sounds as if Bennett did not do anything to discourage that plan.
Bennett met with NCAA investigators to protest that he wasn't even really interested in recruiting the foreign player in question. But text messages and emails were uncovered that seem to prove otherwise.
The plain fact: College basketball programs enter dangerously tricky waters when they decide to recruit internationally. The structure of basketball development in foreign countries is extremely different from in the United States. There is usually no scholastic component at the high school or college level. Each country has its own system of club teams — that can consist of teenagers and 30-year-olds — operated by coaches who double as agents.
Additionally, the NCAA rules are notoriously arcane when it comes to what colleges can and cannot do when helping recruits find their way to America. It's why teams embark on a sensitive journey when they pursue players from the other side of various oceans, though it should be noted that none of the 11 current or former Australian players at Saint Mary's are named in the current violations. Moving ahead, you can be sure the NCAA will be looking at any or all foreign recruitment by the Gaels.
The most damaging element of Saint Mary's punishment is not the temporary loss of two scholarships. That simply means the Gaels will not be able to afford many recruitment mistakes. No, the main damage is the ban on Bennett's being able to recruit off-campus. It means that when other coaches are in the stands watching players at AAU or high school tournaments, he won't be there. It means that his assistants will have to visit homes of recruits and their parents, who surely will ponder the head coach's absence.
Do other schools pursue more shady practices and get away with it? Probably. Does that mean Saint Mary's was hit too hard by the NCAA? No. Bennett is responsible for all aspects of his program. At the very least, while chasing the March Madness dream of every school, he let some details slide and waded into swampy ground. When you go into that swamp, you can't be surprised if an alligator shows up to bite you. That's the smarmy side of college basketball today. Congratulations to Saint Mary's for joining the club.

Nicole Kidman opted for a simple elegant look on the red carpet tonight for 'The Paperboy' Cannes Film Festival premiere.
Many of you had your fingers crossed that she would be wearing Chanel, but she opted for a Lanvin gown which was custom-made by Alber Elbaz.
The rose tulle silk pleated one-shoulder gown with an embroidered crystal detailing was styled with ivory Casadei sandals.
Her classic, elegant gown didn't give me the wow I was hoping for. But she looked beautiful nonetheless.
A side-parted bun with a few pieces framing her face and diamond Cartier jewels completed her look.
Yay or nay?

The Dallas Cowboys continue to clear up salary-cap space, ostensibly in an effort to keep impending free-agent pass rusher Anthony Spencer off the open market.
The latest move is releasing free safety Gerald Sensabaugh, someone informed of the move told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Sensabaugh confirmed his release on Twitter, adding his appreciation for the organization.
Sensabaugh's scheduled base salary was $3 million, which would have been fully guaranteed had he still been on the roster by March 12. While the transaction saves another $1.4 million in cap room, it leaves the secondary without a solid player who had started 60 games for the Cowboys over the past four years.
The decision to move on from Sensabaugh is the latest reminder that owner/president/general manager Jerry Jones has struggled mightily in his high-priced efforts to find an impact safety. Roy Williams and Ken Hamlin also collected monster paychecks only to flame out in Dallas.
If the Cowboys still are weighing a last-minute franchise-tag designation for Spencer, they must trim another $3 to $4 million from the cap to squeeze in the $10.63 million figure.
The clock is ticking.
UPDATE: Spencer's agent, Jordan Woy, tweeted the Cowboys intend to use the franchise tag on Spencer for the second consecutive year.Follow Chris Wesseling on Twitter @ChrisWesseling.

Suddarths of Southern Indiana
Posted by dwsuddarth on 23 September 2009
In the early 1800's, there are four Suddarth men whose relationship to each other has always been assumed to be brothers. I am not so sure. The four are, in order of birth:
- James, born 1795 in Virginia
- Benjamin, born 1801 in Virginia
- John, born 1811 in Kentucky
- Lewis, born 1812 in Kentucky
Right away, I think it is apparent that there is a question as to whether these four are brothers. The large gap in years between Benjamin and John would indicate that either there is more than one family represented here, or there are others that are missing. I believe that John and Lewis are brothers. I do not have anything to confirm or deny this, but because of the years and location of their births, I think it is a pretty valid conclusion. James and Benjamin may also be brothers, as they were born only six years apart and were both born in Virginia.
In addition, I have found some women in the area who are related to these Suddarths. They are:
- Patience, born 1774 – 1794
- Sarah, born 1803 in Kentucky, married Jeremiah Tadlock
- Sarah, born 1810 – 1820, married James Moore
I think that it is clear here that there are at least two separate families. Since there are two separate Sarahs with the maiden name of Suddarth, they are most likely not sisters. Combining this information with the information above, I have broken this down into two separate families. The first family is composed of James, Benjamin and Sarah (Suddarth) Tadlock. I believe that they are all siblings. Patience may also be a sibling, but if she was born early enough, may be the mother or another relative. The second family would be composed of Sarah (Suddarth) Moore, John, and Lewis. I believe that these three are siblings, as well.
Looking at the locations of the births, it appears that the Suddarths in Southern Indiana came from Virginia, through Kentucky and then into Indiana, where they settled. There are a lot of Suddarths in Virginia in the 1700's and the 1800's. Trying to tie the Indiana Suddarths to the Virginia Suddarths has not been easy, however.
I will be writing about each of these Suddarths (as much as I know). If you are related to any of these families, please contact me.

Steptoe Underpass Opens Today in Kennewick! [PHOTOS]
If you haven't driven past, there is no other north-south street like it in Kennewick. Totally unencumbered travel from Gage Boulevard to Clearwater Avenue with few crossroads is possible. It will open after a ribbon cutting at 11 a.m.I spoke with Evelyn Lusignan, Kennewick city's spokesperson, and found out this City of Kennewick road project will now transition from Phase 2 (from Center Parkway to 4th Avenue) to planning for Phase 3 from 4th Ave. to 10th Ave. including a roundabout at five corners. Phase 3 of this road improvement project will cost $5 million and is already fully funded by local taxes plus state and federal grants. It should be complete by fall 2014. A later portion of Phase 3 will continue Steptoe around the south side of Thompson Hill connecting it with Sherman Street in the Southridge area.
