**All our banners and door signs are triple layered for added protection from breakage. A "Happy Birthday" banner weighs 7 ounces before adding protective shipping materials. This is not a simple, flimsy, single layered banner. Your satisfaction is my TOP priority. All our toppers include a shadow on the back of the decorative image, so that the lollipop stick is not seen on the back side. We ONLY use lollipop sticks on my toppers, instead of craft wooden sticks. It adds a sense of security when the little ones are using them, so that they won't be pricked. Not to mention, that the best part of a cupcake is licking the icing off the cupcake topper. Please check our feedback at our sister company "2mommysscrapin.etsy.com" . You will not be disappointed.**
All items take approximately 2-3 weeks for production. Please note party date at checkout. If you need something sooner, please feel free to convo me! I might be able to squeeze you in.

Computer Recycling in Toms River & Brick
Let Us Safely Dispose of Your Electronics!
Is there an old computer tower sitting around in your garage or attic, simply taking up space? What about an old laptop or tablet? Computers and other electronic devices seem to become outdated almost as soon as we buy them, and the continual cycle of buy and upgrade means these now obsolete devices can simply stack up in a pile. To make matters more complicated, you can't simply throw them away—the metals and other substances are actually hazardous to the environment, which is why they need to be recycled for future use later.
Why Choose The Junkluggers of the Jersey Shore?
At The Junkluggers of the Jersey Shore, we can help you clear away that pile of outdated gadgets and make sure they're disposed of properly. Our computer recycling services in Brick, Toms River, and the Jersey Shore can collect this junk from you and then take it to a local recycling center where it can be properly sorted and then dismantled and for reuse later. This not only prevents these potentially toxic materials from ending up in landfills where they pollute the environment but ensures that the materials can be used again later to make the next latest and greatest electronic device!
Our computer removal team hauls away the following computer devices as well:
- Printers
- Scanners
- Keyboards & Mice
- Monitors
- Circuit boards & computer components
Identity Protection
Are you worried about potentially sensitive data that might still be on an old hard drive that you haven't booted up in years? The data hasn't gone anywhere, and it's a good idea to make sure that you've either sufficiently deleted the data or destroyed the drive before recycling. We do not clear your hard drives, and your safety and security is extremely important to us. We strongly recommend that you take appropriate measures to ensure all secure data is properly destroyed or removed from these drives before sending them with us for recycling.
Call The Junkluggers of the Jersey Shore at (732) 372-0284 to schedule a pickup appointment and let us haul your old, unused computers away!

MD Capital Management – http://www.mdcapitalmanagement.net
I have been investing since 1998 (age 16) when I saved nearly all my money from working on my winter break from high school, and invested it according to the value investing principles I had read about in Warren Buffett's shareholder letters and books about value investing. After high school, I attended Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, Texas, where I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in finance. Post graduation, I worked in investment banking for two years (helping companies raise financing, buy other businesses or sell their businesses) before joining a private equity and debt investment firm, where I have worked for four years. My investing philosophy has been developed through my insatiable reading of books written by and about prominent value investors and their investment philosophy, 11 years of public market investment experience and four years of private equity experience, where I have invested and/or manage over $625MM of investments in 6 companies.
I have started a newsletter that provides, via e-mail, one investment idea every month to my readers. I select investments based on the value investing principles espoused by Warren Buffett, Joel Greenblatt and Glenn Greenberg, (i) investing in good businesses (ii) with management teams who wisely allocate capital (iii) that can be bought at a cheap price.
I target two audiences: (i) High Net Worth Individuals who use my newsletter to select stocks and (ii) other finance professionals (hedge and mutual fund managers). I try to target my newsletter to High Net Worth Individuals who are generally intelligent and may have a little finance knowledge.
I am looking for a word template that I can use every month when publishing my newsletter. I would like to fill in the template with that month's newsletter's text, print to .pdf, and then send to my subscribers via e-mail. I have attached example newsletters that I have published in the past and two newsletters that I like, but feel free to be creative and not mimic the ones I like.
In addition to word, I would also like .jpg, .png, .ai, .pdf, and .psd formats.
Thank you!

For six weeks and beyond, star pupils on the HSR Diet eat a luscious salad for lunch, beautifully dressed, of course.
Dr. Colbert enters America's Newsroom
Dr. David Colbert's new diet book unlocks secrets to looking younger.
by David Colbert, MD
with Terry Reed
In a culture of obesity, poisonous fast food, myriad food phobias, and one weight loss diet more bizarre than the next, Dr. David Colbert and Terry Reed have written a lucid, lively book that offers its readers an antidote: sanity. Well researched, medically sound, and entirely free of hysteria, High School Reunion Diet is much more than a means to an end. It is a lively, smart primer on how to eat, not just for thirty days, but forever.
-Siri Hustvedt
Dr. Colbert is like your favorite high school teacher—very funny, a little sarcastic and a lot subversive. By translating nutritional science into a language we can finally relate to, he gets inside your head and turns your thinking around. Your body will never be the same again—and years later, you'll probably still be thanking him for it.
-Molly Ringwald
With its concise exposure of unnatural foods, in a voice somewhere between a savvy coach and a cheer leader, this book can help you master a healthier way to eat, crème brûlée included.
-Gael Greene
Another High School Reunion Diet Success Story!
"Many things cause people to make a radical change–a new job, marriage or moving to a new city just to name a few. But for O's creative director Adam Glassman it was a yearly physical with his doctor and the discovery of high blood pressure that caused him to re-evaluate his relationship with food. A self-described skinny kid, he says, "I never had to diet in my entire life."

I read your Editorial: �Flawed process results in unnecessary turmoil.� That is the best written, most responsible piece of journalism I have seen in a good long while and I would like to adopt it word for word as my own!
I read your Editorial: �Flawed process results in unnecessary turmoil.� That is the best written, most responsible piece of journalism I have seen in a good long while and I would like to adopt it word for word as my own!
First, let me simply say that the process was flawed and I am ultimately responsible for the process and so the unnecessary distraction was ultimately my fault and I accept responsibility for it. I am sorry. Second, while we followed the law in setting up the meeting, announcing the meeting, and allowing the public in, that process may not be good enough when it comes to politically sensitive issues like bonuses for upper level management, and I promise that I will be more aware of the political sensitivity of issues like this in the future. I simply goofed and it became a mess.
I should have been more attentive to the process and I should have encouraged debate on whether the retreat was the right place to do the vote. In fact, none of the aldermen raised the issue or it would have been debated right then and there. I think that we have all learned a good lesson and have been reminded that we need to be held to a standard that is effectively transparent rather than simply legally transparent. If we follow the law in our meetings and special meetings and yet the public is still left with the perception that something doesn�t smell right, well then we have failed and the consequence for failure is several weeks and countless man hours of time used for issues which are not part of our articulated action plan.
Quite frankly I do not consider this issue to have been raised in vain. It has allowed the best in some people to shine through. Mr. Epperson shined in his leadership and the Sun Journal shined in its editorial and has reminded us of the absolute value of the press as the fourth estate. It has also been a learning experience for me and for the other aldermen, and our process will be less flawed (not perfect) in the future. I like the Sun Journal�s simple yet ultimately workable proposal that we should not vote on anything unless it is during a routine, regularly scheduled meeting of the board or an emergency meeting.
We have a great many things left to accomplish this year. We are implementing the Gateway Renaissance Project; we would like to purchase the Days Inn and demolish it to facility a true Renaissance in New Bern; we are moving forward with business development efforts; we are strengthening our ties with the county and other area governments so that we can work more efficiently in these tough times; we are continuing to fight against any BRAC at Cherry Point, and as it turns out, we are continuing to learn about and improve our very own governing process.
Thank you to the Sun Journal for being a responsible part of my learning curve and thank you to Mr. Epperson for your exemplary leadership and character!
Lee W. Bettis, Jr.
Mayor, New Bern

Here is the problem with all economic analysis – data revisions. Each month economists, analysts and the media work off reported numbers to make assumptions about the economy. However, the problem is that most of the assumptions made generally wind up being wrong when the data is revised. This is one reason why predicting recessions is so difficult. Currently, there are many that foresee "no recession" in the coming months and that may well be the case. However, as I have discussed previously, the problem that exists for me, any other student of the economy, is that we are all working with lagging data that continues to be revised at much later dates. Waiting on these data revisions is specifically why the National Bureau of Economic Research's (NBER), who officially dates recessions in the U.S., announcements are always months after the recession actually started.
This week the Philadelphia Federal Reserve issued their revisions to the widely followed Philadelphia Federal Reserve Survey for 2012. The chart below shows the difference to the "Current General Activity" portion of the survey which is what is reported by the media.
Photo: Street Talk Live
What is important to notice is that the survey overstated both strength and weakness in the survey all year long. However, the deterioration in the subcomponents was just as notable particularly in the areas that most directly affect employment – backlogs, and new orders.
Photo: Street Talk Live
Furthermore, future expectations have been sharply declining since September. The outlook for overall activity, new orders, shipments, backlogs, and employment have all been negatively impacted since the election. While future expectations of capital expenditures have risen during the last quarter this is most likely a function of plans to increase productivity to preserve compressing profit margins.
Photo: Street Talk Live
Regardless, there are few relative positives and the revisions in the data for 2012 showed a much weaker environment than previously believed. In the coming months ahead we will get the annual revisions to incomes, spending, and employment which are all primary constituents of the GDP calculation and the determination of a recession. While I currently do not expect a recession in the near term we cannot rule out the possibility of one later in 2013 due to higher taxes and potentially larger than expected cuts in spending. We remain conservatively invested until we are past the debt ceiling debate and have more clarity on the direction and trend of the markets.

Look! The Volkswagen Super Bowl commercials really aren't racist after all. How do we know this? Because it turns out the Jamaicans love it, too!
In fact, one Jamaican Volkswagen dealership likes it so much, they're centering a contest around it. ATL Automotive of Jamaica is giving away a "gift pack" (oooh!) as part of their "Redo the Scene" competition. What's in the gift pack? They don't tell us! That makes it even more enticing if you ask me.
Here's what you have to do to win: Re-enact one of six scenes in VW's "Get Happy" ad, film it, and then send it off to the dealership via their Facebook page. Then people can get on and vote for the winning video. As of this writing, three videos have already been submitted.
It's probable that you have to live in Jamaica to win, but you guys are welcome to give it a try yourselves. It's just not likely that you'll win, seeing as how you'll be competing against, you know, real Jamaicans. Unlike the fellow in the VW ad.
Hat tip to Crossdrilled!

Worship is central to everything we do at Calvary Baptist Church.
It is through our worship encounters with God that we are challenged in our faith, encouraged by God's presence and called to serve our community through mission endeavors.
During our times of corporate worship on Sunday mornings, we nurture our relationship with God and each other.
Calvary offers multiple opportunities to worship with our church family. In all of our worship services we hear from God through scripture, music, readings and preaching. We respond to God through prayer, litany, offering and song.
So, no matter what setting helps you best relate to God, there is a place for you to worship at Calvary!
Our Sunday Services Times
8:30 am, Worship in the Fellowship Hall
Our early worship experience meets in our fellowship hall and features music from our praise band and singers. The music is contemporary in style and the atmosphere is casual. Worshipers in this service sing a wide-variety of congregational songs from contemporary music to hymns of faith.
11:00 am, Worship in the Sanctuary
At 11:00AM on Sunday morning we gather for worship in our sanctuary. Music in this service is led primarily by our sanctuary choir, piano and organ. We value diversity in this service as we often hear from our handbell, children or youth choirs, as well as instrumental and vocal soloists.
Watch Live: By visiting or subscribing to the Calvary YouTube channel here.
Listen Live: Online at the WVLK website (click the "Listen Live" icon) or you can hear the live broadcast on the radio on 590 WVLK AM and 97.3 FM.

US man pleads guilty to supporting terrorism
MOBILE, Alabama – A man who the FBI said wanted to wage violent jihad in Africa pleaded on guilty on Friday to a charge of conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists.
Randy Lamar Wilson, 26, pleaded guilty in federal court in Mobile. Under a plea agreement with prosecutors, he could face 15 years in federal prison, contingent on the information he provides about co-conspirators. U.S. District Judge Kristi DuBose set an Oct. 18 sentencing date for Wilson.
Wilson was arrested in December at the Atlanta airport while boarding a flight with his family to Mauritania.
The same day, agents arrested 25-year-old Mohammad Abdul Rahman Abukhdair, Wilson's former business partner. Charges against Abukhdair are still pending and his trial is set for August.
Federal prosecutors portrayed Wilson as an Islamic radical who wanted to reunite with Omar Hammami, an American who also grew up in Alabama and became one of the most well-known jihadists in Somalia.
Wilson told DuBose on Friday that he believed the government could prove that he intended to participate in violent jihad overseas.
Federal prosecutors said Wilson intended to "murder, maim and kidnap" people overseas.
U.S. Attorney Christopher Bodnar said the government could prove that Wilson and Abukhdair made extensive plans to travel to a country where they could participate in a religious war. Bodnar said the two men wanted to disguise their reason for traveling as tourism or academic study.
"He knew at all times that he was participating in an illegal conspiracy," Bodnar said.
Domingo Soto, Wilson's attorney, said Wilson would provide information about Abukhdair and others as part of the plea agreement.
"He wanted to plead guilty," Soto said. "As far as I'm concerned, this still has to do with free-speech issue," said Soto, who has said that Wilson's statements could have been misconstrued or taken out of context by government agents.
"He is pretty fatalistic about this," Soto said. He said Wilson believed a jury pool would be tainted by the emotional issues surrounding terrorism.
Wilson was stoic on Friday, wearing a beige jail jumpsuit with arm and leg chains and guarded by eight U.S. marshals. He answered only yes and no to DuBose's questions and said he understood the details of the plea agreement and the consequences of his plea.

The Global Vaccine Safety Initiative (GVSI)
In 2011, WHO and a group of partners developed a strategic document on vaccine safety called the Global Vaccine Safety Blueprint. This document sets out indicators that aim to ensure that all countries have at least a minimal capacity to ensure vaccine safety.
The Blueprint proposes a strategic plan for strengthening vaccine safety activities globally.
It focuses on building national capacity for vaccine safety in the world's poorest countries through the coordinated efforts of major stakeholders.
The Blueprint was developed through a worldwide consultation of experts who defined its mission, vision and goals.
The Global Vaccine Safety Initiative, or GVSI, was set up to implement the Blueprint strategy. This comprises a framework of eight strategic objectives aimed at enhancing global vaccine safety activities. The strategic objectives focus on building and supporting a systemic approach to vaccine pharmacovigilance in all low- and middle-income countries.
Blueprint objectives 1 - 4 relate directly to the components of vaccine pharmacovigilance. Blueprint objectives 5 - 8 cover supporting elements that must be in place for the vaccine safety system to function effectively.

Fans picking up the first run of Bakugan Battle Brawlers for the Nintendo DS this October can score the Collector's Edition, which comes packed with a limited edition ball for them to play with.
Bakugan is big with the kids, or it was last time I checked, which was a year ago, so the Nintendo DS game based on the animated series should do rather well, especially now that Activision has revealed the Collector's Edition, which comes with a limited-edition Naga Bakugan toy, which they can immediately sell on eBay. No, really!
"One look on eBay will show you how fanatics obsess over rare Bakugans - we're sure the Naga battle ball will become one of the most prized of all," said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. "Bakugan players and gamers are getting the opportunity to score something special while picking up the most entertaining Nintendo DS™ game of the year!"
If this is the case, you should probably preorder around 20 and just sit on them for awhile. I want to see you camping out for this one, people!
For those of you who don't know who Naga is, Activision provides a description below.

Student or Learner
Hello everyone.
Today I have some questions about indirect sentences. Would you like to help me solve them?
- Problem 1
A: Where are you going?
B: I am going to school. What do you mean?
A: I would like to know where / [you was going to] or [where you are going to] / ?
- Problem 2
+ Indirect: I don't know what happened.
direct sentence is: What happen ? (It is ok)?
+ So indirect: I don't know what is happening.
What is direct sentences ? [...]
- PS: Please tell me if you see any problems from my posts. Thanks
"What happen?" is not OK. It should be "What happened?"
Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.
Thanks you all for replying.
But why does my teacher always teach me:
I need to down tense level when convert direct to indirect?
Example. Simple tense => simple past
Peter asked me: "what do you do ?"
> Peter asked me that what I did...
So why do you think it is: Peter asked me that what i do?

So where can I use 'Backshifting' ? And Where not?
If I don't use backshifting, my exam will be not true by my teacher.

SACRAMENTO — The secretary of state"s office reports that more than 17 million Californians are registered to vote ahead of the November presidential election, or nearly 73 percent of those who are eligible to cast a ballot.
The report issued Friday by Secretary of State Debra Bowen shows the number of unaffiliated voters continues to grow. More than one in five, or 3.7 million voters, have chosen no party preference.
Bowen"s office says Republican registration continues to decline and is just barely over 30 percent. About 7.5 million voters are registered Democrats, or 43.3 percent, compared with nearly 44 percent in the November 2008 presidential election.
The rolls could see a spike before the Oct. 22 registration deadline after California this week launched its first online voter registration program.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Can someone help with my problem without going the "generic download" route?
I am using the "black" Sandisk Micro Cruzer 2Gb.
Sandisk Driver is loaded in 98SE computer but cannot get cruzer to "fire up".

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hi Carson
From your previous posts, it sounds like it's working fine. To find out:
Go to the main screen and double click My Computer
After that screen comes up, plug the Cruzer into the usb port
After a few seconds, the new drive should appear
Double click on the drive icon and it's contents should pop-up [just as if you clicked on any other drive - Removable Disk (Drive: )]
To Backup data to this drive just Copy the file from whatever folder it's in to the new drive or use Save As when saving the file and save it to the new drive
Hope this helps

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Thanks for your reply, Bill
I know I am getting close to success, but it is still eluding me. Let me recap and tell you what I find:
I followed your instructions - double-click on (removable) E drive,
I get a small window with of 1 folder inside called "CRUZER FAMILY 98SE DRIVER".
Inside that folder are 9 files:
1. DATA1.cab 609 Kb
2. DATA1.HDR 14.0 Kb
3. DATA2.cab 512 bytes
4. IKERNEL.EXE 338 Kb
5. LAYOUT.bin 441 bytes
6. SETUP.bmp 92.6 KB (when opened its an image of SANDISK logo)
7. SETUP.EXE 35 KB a launcher
8. SETUP.INI 148 bytes
I guess I am looking for the real DRIVER, but don't know where it is. Is it one of the 9 above?
Have been trying to find the location of C:\WINDOWS\INF\SNDK98.INF (with FIND command) as mentioned in your earlier post, to no avail. I presume that is the real driver which I should copy into the E Drive.
Am I right so far?
Once I find the thing, will it be in a file and shall I copy the file or only the content into the E drive?
Appreciate your help, Bill
PS: My machine is extremely clean and well functioning on everything.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hi Carson
Let's take this one step at a time.
First: go to the main screen and double click My Computer without the Cruzer plugged into the usb slot
Second: Plug in the Cruzer. The light on the Cruzer should come on and, after a few seconds, a new drive icon should appear in the My Computer window.
Third: Unplug the Cruzer and the new drive that appeared should disappear.
This will tell us if your machine is "seeing" the drive.
If it is, I suspect that the driver files are working ok and the zip file was somehow copied or unpacked onto the Cruzer.
If your machine is not "seeing" the new drive, we'll have to take it from there and do something different.
Let me know what you get.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
GoodMorning, Bill,
Must say you are a patient man, thank you.
Step 1.- I d'click My computer, no drive
Inserted cruzer in USB slot - light comes on, D-drive appears on My computer
Remove cruzer from Usb port - D-Drive disappears.
( I have the Sandisk icon on my desktop, as required by the original download instructions. Properties: 1.17Mb. Contains 9 files, 1 folder).
FYI: Don't want to be a total burden on you, but if you have the time to help me out, I'll really appreciate it. Time is not a major factor. I'll be out of commission for a few days starting tomorrow; a little hospital stay for a couple of days. Hope you will stay with me on this until we get it resolved - one way or the other.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hi Carson
No problem. It looks to me like your Cruzer is working just fine, like it's supposed to.
I'm not sure about that Sandisk icon on your desktop - we'll have to look into that a bit further, but
if the Cruzer shows up as drive D when you insert it and disappears when you remove it, it is working.
All you have to do is use it like any other drive on your system:
Use Save As to save files to it
Drag and Drop files into it
For more info Click on Start on your desktop
Click on Help
Click on the Index Tab
Scroll down to files and choose a topic to get more info - it has help on copying files and backing up files, saving file in various places etc.
Just ignore that Sandisk icon on your desktop for now, we'll figure it out later. It links to something. I never got one myself, but I probably told it I didn't want it when I installed the drivers.
Let me know when you get it figured out and Good Luck at the hospital.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hi Bill,
Eureka, you are right. It's working as it should without further changes. You provided the secret word: Use "save as" or "drag it onto D-drive". I tried both methods and all copied fine.
Having never used an external back-up device before I just didn't know how to do it. In all my researching the problem, I never ran across that activity written anywhere.
I suppose if I want to backup the modified file, I just do the same and it will over-write the old file on Drive-E. Is that the way it works?
I'll talk to you in a few days when I get back. You made my day, Bill.
Re the Sandisk icon, it is only used during the initial down-load of the driver. It does nothing more than open a window for the cruzer folder. Not to worry about.
I will probably have a few more operational questions for you then.
Thanks again, Bill

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hello Bill, (England calling)
If it is ok with you, I would like to call on your knowledge base, if not, (and this thread has been
quiet for some time now), I will understand.
I have a Sandisk Cruzer Micro USB flash drive 2.0 GB, and I'm trying to trfr some old files from
a Win 98se comp to a more modern one.
I have downloaded the Win 98 files from Sandisk as per their instructions, without too much
of a problem. However.....
I thought that you had solved my problem with your post on the 11-27-07.
"Highlight SanDisk on the Left and Cruzer (as noted above) on the Right".
However the 'closest!' manufacturer in my old computer wizard is Sundisk!, and the model is Sandisk
ATA Flashdisk.
Your next step was..
"You may get a: WARNING - The driver was not written for the selected hardware... Are you sure..."
The location of my file is C:\WINDOWS\INF\MSHDC.INF
Your location was C:\WINDOWS\INF\SNDK98.INF
I carried on regardless however, I still came unstuck, sorry to report.
Yes, I thought that you had solved it for me, but as you read this you will gather otherwise.
I have looked at System Properties, and the Sandisk ATA Flashdisk is shown in the Hard Disk controllers,
but with an exclamation mark over it saying "device either not present"
"not working properly"
"or does not have all the drivers installed"
To get around this, I made copied the files to a dvd, and tried to update from the disk,
once again without success. :-(
Bill, if you could help please, I would be very grateful to say the least.
If you can't, (and would like this thread to go <back> to sleep, its ok,
I'll take it to the shop, or wherever.
Thank you anyway.

Re: Problems installing Micro driver with WIN98SE
Hi Paul
I'm sure we can figure it out for you. It's been a while since I have had to install the drivers, so I'm going to have to think about it a little. I've got quite a bit on my plate for a day or two, but I'll think about your problem and get back to you asap.

Leading economies call for accelerating transition to global clean energy economy
By Lee Joon-seung
SEOUL, May 13 (Yonhap) -- Policymakers from the world's leading economies that account for roughly 70 percent of all energy consumption on Tuesday called for accelerating the transition to a global clean energy economy that can help deal with climate change and energy security issues.
In a press conference held at the conclusion of the three-day 5th Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) meeting in Seoul, Yoon Sang-jick, South Korea's minister of trade, industry and energy, said clean energy development depends of three key pillars based on finding good technology, investment and market creation.
Yoon, who hosted the gathering, said for such pillars to contribute to clean energy use, trust building among interested parties is essential.
"By building trust, market actors can reduce risks associated with developing new technologies," he said.
The minister also noted that participants of the latest CEM meeting agreed to discuss in detail issues raised by Seoul on the need to deal with different certifications, diverse regulations and government policies that favor national companies over foreign firms in the clean energy development field.
"After discussing the matter for one year, CEM will decide whether or not to adopt the issues as a formal initiative when it meets again in Mexico City for the sixth round of ministerial talks," he said.
U.S. Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz also concurred on the need for close cooperation across the board and said that recent focus on "clean energy finance" and other measures are important to bring about progress that can allow the world to deal more effectively with global warming.
"The focus on clean energy finance and close collaboration with the private sector is part of the broader theme where if we are going to have the kind of energy transformation that we want, at the scale that we want, and at the pace that we want, we need to find ways to move large amounts of private capital off the sidelines so it can be invested in clean energy," the official stressed.
He said that the period between the CEM 5 meeting held in Seoul and the CEM 6 meeting set for next year is important because the international community will be discussing key issues related to climate change.
"Clean energy is central to the solution of climate change risks and energy security," Moniz said.
Countries around the world are moving to make collective commitments to greenhouse gas reductions at the end of 2015 in Paris. In regards to energy security, he pointed out that the recent developments in the Ukraine has highlighted the issue to a new level.
CEM 5, which gathered energy ministers and senior delegates from 22 countries and the European Commission, highlighted progress made through the ministerial collaborative initiative and announced new and expanded actions that will enhance clean energy supply, improve energy efficiency and expand clean energy access around the world.

In a letter sent to Chu last week and released on Monday, Chairman Issa of the powerful House Oversight and Government Reform Committee blasted the Department of Energy (DOE) for failing to cooperate with the investigation. He also noted that the DOE's "stimulus" programs for so-called green energy have been a disaster responsible for billions of "wasted" tax dollars.
"The Committee is actively investigating the DOE's implementation of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act which has been plagued by missed goals, waste of taxpayer funds, and loan guarantees to companies that have failed," Issa explained. "Your in-person testimony is vital to our oversight."
Secretary Chu, however, has repeatedly defied the multiple requests by Congress to appear for a hearing. First, the excuse was scheduling conflicts. When the Committee offered an array of different dates far in advance, the department responded that other DOE officials would be better qualified to testify.
But Rep. Issa is not buying it.
"I am amazed that your staff thinks that you are not qualified to discuss DOE's Recovery Act-related work," Issa told Chu in the letter posted on the Committee's website. "While some have questioned your ability to manage DOE's broad responsibilities, I believe that as Secretary of DOE you are best suited to discuss 'an extremely broad topic' that involves many facets of DOE activity."
Energy boss Chu has already been given numerous opportunities to appear before Congress voluntarily. But if he continues to stonewall, Issa noted, the committee will be forced to consider the use of "compulsory process" within the next two months — in other words, issuing a subpoena forcing Chu to appear.
"The American people have a right to know why DOE, under your leadership, has wasted billions of dollars of their money," Issa's letter concluded. In recent months, the Congressman has brought attention to several suspicious and costly debacles.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee is already investigating the Solyndra scandal, which bilked taxpayers out of more than $500 million when the well-connected "green" company declared bankruptcy last year. The Oversight Committee, meanwhile, is examining the broader DOE loan-guarantee program as other tax-funded companies continue to go bust.
Among the DOE-sponsored firms being investigated by Issa's Committee is Beacon Power, which quickly went bankrupt despite tens of millions in taxpayer funds. Another firm, Nevada Geothermal, was already on the verge of failure when the federal government approved a $100-million loan guarantee.
In early January, Rep. Issa sent letters to Chu requesting relevant documents and raising serious concerns about the overall process involved in handing out the taxpayer money. In the case of Nevada Geothermal, Issa suggested the DOE loan guarantee was nothing but a "bailout" to the creditors of the crumbling firm.
"Not only does it appear that DOE purposely directed taxpayer funds at a failing enterprise, DOE's action robbed taxpayers of genuine investment toward renewable energy," Rep. Issa charged, saying the swindle appeared to be unlawful. "Paying off a creditor clearly does not maximize job creation and economic benefits. In fact, it provides an opportunity for private industry to exit an investment, deleverage and transfer the extraordinarily high default risk to taxpayers."
So far the DOE has provided some documents to the relevant committees. But there is a lot of explaining left to do, congressional investigators believe. And Chu, who testified before a House Energy and Commerce Committee panel in November, must cooperate for Congress to find out what was going on.
Members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, meanwhile, are also running into stonewalling by the Obama administration in the investigation of Solyndra. Republicans plan to formally object to the White House's response in the not-too-distant future. And if nothing changes, there will be consequences.
"We're going to be laying out the case [that] they've not complied," Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.), chairman of the Committee's Oversight & Investigations Subcommittee, was quoted as saying by Politico.com. GOP congressmen might even consider contempt of Congress charges if the administration continues to resist. "Everything is still on the table," Stearns added.
Despite the concerns of Congress, a spokesperson for the DOE claimed the department was trying to cooperate with the Oversight Committee's investigation. "We are working with [Issa's] staff to find a suitable date and witness for the Committee's latest hearing request," spokeswoman Jen Stutsman was quoted as saying by The Hill. "The Secretary continues to hope for a constructive dialogue with members in both parties on how American workers can compete for the growing, $260 billion global clean energy industry."
Rep. Issa and the Oversight Committee he chairs have been attempting to hold the Obama administration accountable on a broad range of issues beyond the ongoing DOE scandals, earning praise from activists nationwide. As with the difficulties in investigating the "stimulus" and "green energy" fiascos, however, the executive branch has largely refused to fully cooperate.
Last year, after whistleblowers exposed the federal government's deadly "Fast and Furious" gun-trafficking program that unlawfully sent weapons to Mexican drug cartels, congressional Republicans began investigating. Attorney General Eric Holder and other top officials responded with lies, defiance, and a half-baked coverup that continues to outrage investigators and activists to this day.
More recently, the New York Times blew the whistle on the Drug Enforcement Administration's suspicious money-laundering activities. Again, Issa and the Oversight Committee promised to investigate. So far, however, little new information has been revealed to the public.
No one has been held criminally accountable yet for the federal gun-running or money-laundering schemes despite repeated public calls for accountability. Holder insists an "internal investigation" will eventually produce a few lower-ranking officials who can be blamed.
Still, more vocal critics say the congressional hearings and investigations are largely missing the point: Subsidies to favored companies are not authorized by the Constitution in the first place. Neither, for that matter, is the Energy Department. Or the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (still known as ATF). Or the DEA.
If Congress was serious about stopping the widespread abuses, all it would have to do is de-fund the alphabet soup of unconstitutional agencies and departments that are running wild and burning through taxpayer money. Simply obeying the Constitution would eliminate countless problems lawmakers on both sides of the aisle purport to be concerned about.
And despite his public crusade to rein in the some of the Obama administration's excesses, Issa has his own "green" skeletons in the closet, too. As reported by The New American last year, the Congressman sent Chu a letter in 2010 asking the DOE to provide federal loans to an electric car manufacturer in his California district.
President Obama and congressional Democrats blasted the apparent hypocrisy and made a mockery of Issa's efforts to hold the administration accountable. Even some conservatives found it hard to defend the powerful Republican in the face of his past statements seeking "green" funds for his district, though at least he voted against the failed "stimulus" bill.
Where the investigation of the wasted "green-energy" billions will go remains to be seen. But analysts suspect that, despite the tough rhetoric, business as usual will continue in Washington until the federal government and all of its subsidized boondoggles are officially declared bankrupt.

World Cup 2011: Round 3 Tiebreaks
We're down to 16 players in the World Cup (remember, the top three qualify for the next Candidates event), and one of them is...David Navara, who pulled out the match against Alexander Moiseenko. In the first rapid game, Navara won a tough rook ending when Moiseenko wrongly retreated with 53...Kf6; it seems that the active 53...Kg4 54.c5 Kf3 55.Rb2 Rh4 speeds Black's counterplay just enough to hold the game.
The adventures weren't over yet, and as in yesterday's game, the trouble came on move 35. (This time it was a purely chess problem, fortunately.) In a complicated Gruenfeld, White enjoyed a space advantage but Black had sufficient counter-chances thanks to his passed b-pawn. Navara should have played either 35...Qb8, preparing ...Ra2 with an eye to moving the passer further down the board, or at least 35...Bxc4 to avoid some structural damage and giving White a potentially useful passed e-pawn. Instead, his 35...Na5 gave White tremendous activity, and the b-pawn never became a factor; indeed, it was soon lost, along with the game.
So it was on to a shorter time control, and with Black again Navara managed to obtain a material advantage. They eventually reached an ending where Navara had rook + f- and h-pawn vs. rook, where the rule of thumb is that the weak side should draw unless his king is cut off on the first rank. Moiseenko's king was cut off, but Navara's king was stuck on the h-file, in front of his h-pawn, so it was still a theoretical draw. With limited time to think, however, such an ending is difficult to play without errors, and Moiseenko went astray. His 74.Kf1 allowed Navara to execute a straightforward plan that allowed his king to successfully escape from its dungeon, and he was +1 once again. This time, he kept his lead and even increased it, winning pretty easily on the White side of a 4.Qc2 Nimzo-Indian.
In other action, Ivanchuk completed his comeback against Sutovsky, winning both rapid games. In the first, Sutovsky seemed unable to decide if he wanted to play aggressively with White or solidly, and in the end that's what killed him. In a position that didn't really call for h4-h5 Sutovsky played it, then took on g6, and then castled, only to discover that Black could start a dangerous attack with ...Kg7 and ...Rh8. You might think Sutovsky would be discouraged, but he played the first half of the next game very well and stood clearly better with Black. With 27...Qc2 he'd have maintained the advantage, but from this point on he started slipping (probably in time trouble), and Ivanchuk's passed a-pawn decided the game.
So an upset was avoided there, but not in the Zherebukh-Mamedyarov match. In the first rapid game, Zherebukh crushed Mamedyarov when the latter's attempt at a queenside attack only served to open lines for White's better developed forces. (23...c4? was the main culprit.) In the second game Mamedyarov dutifully pushed for a long time, but never came close to a win. Zherebukh drew the game and won the match.
In Ponomariov-Efimenko the favorite won. Ponomariov won game 1 with Black, grinding out a win from an initially equal ending, and then gave Efimenko a charity draw in the second game, forcing perpetual in a dead won position.
Kamsky advanced, keeping U.S. hopes alive in the event (and of course, his own pre-retirement hopes as well), defeating Nepomniachtchi. In an equal ending in game 1, Nepomniachtchi's slightly careless (or was it provocative?) 26.Rd2 was met by the strong exchange sac 26...Rxe3! It was a genuine sacrifice, and while the payoff wasn't immediate it eventually came. Kamsky reached a clearly winning position, but then he got sloppy and allowed his opponent to reach a clearly drawn rook vs. rook and pawn ending. I'm not sure what the clock situation was, but the increments should have been enough to draw what is usually the third elementary rook endgame given in the textbooks (after the Lucena and Philidor positions). Nepomniachtchi went for a more complicated drawing method but got confused and lost. In the rematch, Nepomniachtchi tried the Hippo with Black, but Kamsky maintained control and won that game too.
Other winners: Svidler beat Caruana 2-0, Nielsen likewise beat Parligras 2-0, and in a pair of (relatively minor) upsets Potkin beat Vitiugov and Bruzon defeated Le Quang Liem by 1.5-.5 margins. In both cases the match winner first won with Black and drew with White.
Finally, Dominguez and Lysyj played 6 quick draws, saving energy but wasting the day until the Armageddon game. Dominguez had White and the need to win, and win he did.
So here are the pairings for round 4, which starts tomorrow (higher-rated player listed first; note that the pairings are given in bracket order, so the winner of the first match will play the winner of the second; the winner of the first quartet plays the winner of the second, and so on):
Dominguez - Polgar
Kamsky - Svidler
Ponomariov - Bruzon
Gashimov - Nielsen
Ivanchuk - Bu Xiangzhi
Radjabov - Jakovenko
Navara - Zherebukh
Grischuk - Potkin

Dozens of yard signs supporting Eric Cantor's run for re-election lined the road leading to the Virginia Republican Roundup election rally. Cantor, who hosted the event — a combination political gathering and country fair — is considered one of the strongest forces helping struggling Republican candidates throughout the country.
Yet here was Cantor making a rare foray into retail politics with his own constituents.
This year, Cantor, the only Jewish Republican in the House of Representatives, is spending a bit more time on his own campaign.
Facing a spirited Democratic challenger and an overall low approval rating for Congress and congressional Republicans, Cantor, the House Majority Leader and six-term congressman, even agreed to debate his rival, a rare move in itself for a congressional leader.
"We've always taken races seriously," Cantor told the Forward, adding he is sure his district remains strongly conservative.
Experts and polling data support Cantor's claim. Virginia's 7th Congressional District, which includes parts of the capital, Richmond, and its suburbs, is solidly Republican and has become even more so after this year's redistricting.
This support was apparent at the October 6 Republican Roundup, which was attended by 6,000 of the area's GOP supporters. Families, sending off their children to jump on the inflatable moon bounce or to stand in line for a bean bag toss and face painting, waited to greet Cantor and his fellow Virginia candidate former governor George Allen, who is now running for the Senate.
"I'm a conservative Republican and formerly a big liberal," stated Adrienne Haine, who moved to Richmond four decades ago from Brooklyn. A strong believer now in small government, Haine admitted she does not know of many other fellow Jewish voters who support Cantor. "The lack of support he gets from the Jewish community is a disgrace," said Haine, proudly showing off the Cantor and Romney stickers on her shirt.
Ever since his first run for Congress in 2000, Cantor has received strong backing from his district. His election majorities have ranged from 59% in 2010 to a high of 75% in 2004.
Cantor, who switched from his Washington suit and tie to an open collared shirt, posed for pictures with supporters, listening to their advice and concerns. Known for his mild manner and genteelness, Cantor, 49, is soft spoken with a trace of southern accent he acquired growing up in Richmond. When talking to voters and supporters, Cantor presented himself first and foremost as their local congressman, abandoning Capitol Hill lingo and any sign of his top position in Republican congressional politics.
"This is a district that has a common sense conservative philosophy," Cantor said in the interview. Invoking the Republicans' mainstay theme, he explained that residents of Virginia's 7th district want lower taxes and less regulation, and support the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare. But this safe district is witnessing, for the first time in over a decade, some real politics. Cantor's aggressive Democratic challenger, Wayne Powell, a lawyer and former Army officer, has succeeded in injecting interest in the race — one sign of which is his success in getting Cantor to agree to a public debate.
The October 1 debate gave Powell an opportunity to lob some zingers at his veteran rival, accusing Cantor of being "so removed from reality" that his idea of small business is a hedge fund. Powell also accused Cantor of responsibility for the upcoming sequester that will lead to a steep cut in government spending across the board.
Cantor's perceived lead remains strong despite the attacks. "We ranked the seat at 'safe Republican' and haven't seen anything to change our mind," said Geoffrey Skelley, a political analyst at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, which rates congressional races based on their competitiveness. Skelley acknowledged that Powell is "more than just a guy in a shirt" and that he is seen as one of the strongest challengers Cantor has met. But the makeup of the district and Cantor's standing weigh heavily in favor of the incumbent, he said.
In deigning to face Powell directly, Cantor is likely looking beyond the district race. A strong showing would help him maintain his leadership position in Congress. "To defeat Powell — and to win big at the same time Republicans preserve their majority — would be affirmation of Cantor's leadership, a pointed reminder to Speaker John Boehner to avoid turning his back to the Gentleman from Virginia," wrote local columnist Jeff Schapiro in the Richmond Times Dispatch.
At the Republican Roundup event, Eric Cantor gift baskets were promised as prizes for raffle winners. The basket included a copy of "Young Guns," a book by Cantor, Paul Ryan, who is now the GOP's vice presidential candidate, and Republican Kevin McCarthy of California. The book lays out their platform for a fiscally conservative Republican party. A major win by Cantor in his district could help usher in another term of Young Guns politics in the House, meaning less compromise on spending and unbending insistence on large budget cuts and large tax cuts.
Cantor's real adversary this year may be Congress itself. Many see him as that institution's face at a time when the body is held in rock-bottom regard. Public approval of Congress, according to the latest Gallup poll, has reached an all time low, with only 10% of Americans viewing the institution favorably.
"Congress has always been a whipping boy, we know that," Cantor told the Forward, but he argued that the real obstructions were mounted by the Democratic majority in the Senate, not the Republicans controlling the House. "So, again, there is a difference and we're out making sure people understand where we are." Toni Michelle Travis, a professor of government and politics at George Mason University, believes the politics related to Cantor's leadership in Washington will have scant impact on voters in his district. "Most people don't even know what it means to be Majority Leader, except that he is on TV more," she said.
As thousands of participants prepared to leave Cantor's Republican Roundup in Richmond, his rival, Wayne Powell, held his own, notably smaller, rally a few miles away. An estimated 100 supporters gathered in a high school gym to hear the Democrat's views. It was a shoestring operation, with family members helping out and staffers who doubled as stage workers stacking folding chairs as the event ended. "There's a lot of discontent with Cantor and his positions on fiscal issues," said Harriet Cobey, who attended Powell's gathering.
Powell stressed that he is a "Democrat running as a Democrat," but a recent TV ad put out by his campaign ends with the tagline "Wayne Powell, a Democrat who just may be your kind of Republican."
"Being a Democrat in these areas is tough," said David "Mud Cat" Saunders, a political strategist working with the Powell campaign. "You tell someone you're a Democrat, you might as well tell them you're a child molester," he said.
The Appalachian-born political consultant believes that Democrats should come to Southern and rural voters with a "big tent" approach and work to dispel the notion that Democratic candidates are all about "tax and spend." Eric Cantor, he believes, "has warts" and is not undefeatable. Polling done by the Powell campaign found that Cantor, despite enjoying a double-digit lead, has a low favorability rating and is viewed by voters as too focused on national issues, instead of on the district's needs. One of these national issues could be Iran's nuclear threat.
In an interview Powell told the Forward that he opposes a rush to war against Iran, saying that Cantor's views on the issue are irresponsible. "I don't like the concept of pre-emptive war," Powell said, adding that any such war is "got to be something more than just 'well you know, they may do something' kind of thing."
But like Cantor, Powell's biggest challenge may not be the guy he's running against. While he goes door to door, trying to convince Virginia voters to turn against Cantor, Powell's own party seems unconvinced that he is a viable candidate. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which funds Democratic races, chose not to direct any resources to Powell, a clear sign that the party does not believe in his chances to beat Cantor. "I believe I'm a winner but they don't know me that well," Powell said in response.

Poor Bruce, with all his moaning and being in pain, it was sort of like being in labour with a baby.
Great recap. Man is Shane going nuts. He reminds me of that psycho guy from a few Survivors back, I think his name was Matt? I"ll have to go back and look. He was always sharpening the knives and he looked like the devil. LOL

Once more … with spectacle, grand singing and clever choreography.
Three generations of movie lovers have loved She Loves Me. But each has known Miklos Laszlo's 1937 play The Parfumerie by a different name, and with different stars. Jimmy Stewart turned the story of haters in love into The Shop Around the Corner in 1940. Judy Garland reprised it as In the Good Old Summertime in 1949. And Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks did it again — with the help of Nora Ephron as screenwriter and director — in 1998's You've Got Mail.
You probably know the plot, a play on mistaken identity. Lonely boy (Georg Nowack) falls in love, sight unseen, with a lonely girl pen pal (Amalia Balash). Lonely girl unknowingly ends up getting a job alongside lonely boy. Boy and girl do not hit it off. Sparks fly, but not of the romantic sort. Eventually, of course, the identities are revealed and lonely boy and girl seem fated not to be lonely any more.
In Infinity Theatre Company's production, the longing and loneliness of Joe Masteroff's script and Sheldon Harnick's song lyrics are left by the wayside. Director/choreographer Andrew Rasmussen makes this summer's version all about spectacle, grand singing and clever choreography.
Complementing the spectacle is Anshuman Bhatia's brilliant set design. What appears at first as a rather empty streetscape with a nice backdrop opens up like a small jewelry box and folds into itself to reveal the perfumerie's shop. It folds again and it's a storage room, then Amalia's bedroom, then a restaurant and back to the perfumerie. All this is done with walls and staircases that swing open and shut, eliminating breaks in action. The perfectly dressed and painted set works as an apt metaphor since She Loves Me features a small music box as a vital plotline.
Led by musical director Tim Rosser, the band lays down a pace that keeps Act One moving at a rapid pace. Act Two slows down, but that's inherent in a script that detours to explore two secondary characters rather than progressing the main plot.
The appealing production is a tight staging performed by a strong and confident cast. All are strong singers and performers. Happily Adam Harrington as Georg Nowack is the most genial and fully convincing of the ensemble, not only in his singing, dancing and stage presence but also in his ability to make Georg three dimensional. Analisa Leaming's Amalia Balash has a beautiful voice and strong stage presence showcased best in her song "Will He Like Me?"
Mark Fishback plays Ladislav Sipos, one of the shop clerks who motivates the plot with his own letter, and he is a delight, skillful in listening and reacting to his fellow performers.
Also delightful is Matthew Patrick Quinn's over-the-top imperious head waiter, who gives us a hilarious rendition of the song, "A Romantic Atmosphere," also very well danced by the ensemble company in creatively choreography.
Dick Decareau is Mr. Maraczek , the storeowner. Jackie Washam is Ilona Ritter, another lonely clerk, who falls for womanizing scoundrel Steven Kodaly, played by Matthew Amira. Jimmy Mavrikes is Arpad Laszlo, a bike messenger. All four are strong singers and dancers, commanding the stage with Broadway gusto.
Intern Lauren Wright (last seen as a soloist in Always … Patsy Cline) not only dances well but also strolls about as the violinist.
The talented ensemble of performers who portray shoppers, dancers and café patrons are Chelsey Lynn Alfredo, Max King, Carl Schneider, Andrew Way, Michael Windsor and Lauren Wright.
She Loves Me is well suited to Infinity Theatre's space and to its ambition of bringing Broadway style musicals to Annapolis.

So this forum post about guns got me thinking. What do you think will happen when another 9-11 happens in America?
Me personally, SOPA/PIPA/ACTA will automatically pass. The internet will be a whole different landscape all in the name of, "National Security".
I think this will make for an interesting discussion because it is talked about so little.
So post your thoughts!
Keep this in mind before your post. Do we sacrifice our liberty in name of security? Also, will the people ever stand up for the ever apparent abuse of our liberty? Me personally, I am still on the fence. They seem to take, take, take, and never give back the powers given to them. Just like Star Wars*.
You know what has always bothered me? The word "HOMELAND" security. When did we become the "Homeland"?
/end rant

All of this assuming 9/11 was in fact some sort of inside job aimed at steering future laws into certain directions.
I don't know. I like to think the above was not the case. Any time something big happens, whether it be 9/11 or the death of a celebrity, conspiracy theorists feel the need to run wild with things, often taking little hints at little possibilities (!) and doing what they can to persuade anyone that will listen that they were facts. Ya know, both Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain were murdered. lol
I don't know...anything is possible.
No. Consider the question assuming none of this assuming 9/11 was an inside job. Assume simply, that people in power and citizens across the country have been terrified into sacrificing liberty for a sense of security. There is no "conspiracy" behind the anti-liberty/pro-security legislation churned out by Congress over the last decade or the expansion of the executive branch. If you need to have an evil twist to this tale, beyond our tragic loss of civil liberties, I suppose you could say that there are some opportunistic people behind these changes. It's just as likely there are a lot of ignorant, fearful, corrupt officials doing what they think it best (be it for them or for the nation).
Yeah there are some that no matter if you showed them all the evidence in the world that the U.S government is not this all powerful, all knowing , super effective group that was behind 9/11 will never be reasoned with. If people really paid attention to how the government works they'd be surprised that anything gets done at all.
While I believe there is great potential for abuse of power during times of trial I also will not discount the American public's push back against somethings. All it takes is the right event to bring attention to things that should be questioned and the public while being known for often being oblivious can bring a lot of pressure that can't be ignored. While I rightly worry about what is done in the name of security I also have great hope.
Also...these sort of things interest me, but I try and not follow them too closely for one simple reason. Americans love guns in the same way we love drugs. Laws aren't going to stop us from obtaining them.
Well if another 9/11 type style attack happened there would be a very severe reaction in the United States among the population that I believe would be much more severe then after 9/11. If there was evidence of any nation state supporting such an attack with any means there would be a massive call for action. I think that the isolastionism streak among many in the United States would go away over night. It would be a mistake to assume that U.S wouldn't put to use the lessons it's learned in it's recent conflicts. I think those conflicts would greatly shape what the U.S did because whether people realize it or not the U.S military has learned much often the hard way in recent years about modern combat and there is an experienced group at the core of its military.
I believe that would be 1822.
The horror.
