Survivor 'saw fear in brother's eyes'
Last month, a probationary licenced driver had a bit too much to drink, and crashed his car into a tree, killing 5 people.
Driver, 15, critical. Passenger dead
Last night, someone who shouldn't even have been driving crashed a car, and killed his best mate.
See what I mean? These people have no idea what they're doing. This is why the state bumped up the practice minimum and extended the probationary period.

Common Sense and Responsibility or lack there of
Thank you Xellos THANK YOU!! You hit the bullseye and win the qupie doll! For a long time one of my pet peves has been the LACK of common sense and/or resposibility,especially by ADULTS! Granted I am 33 but there are people out there my age who do some of the most stupidest,ignorant things and then show up on the 5 o'clock(evening)news whineing about how they just didn't know or realize that if they did "A" that "B" would happen! Excuse me but when did consciense thought stop working,let alone common sense.
You see it everyday; People talking on their cells while driving,cleaning a gun they thought was unloaded,or changeing a light bulb while the switch is still on! Now you may say "Hey I've done that and nothing bad happened." And it may never happen BUT what if it does? Don't get me wrong Lord knows I've done some really bone headed things in my life and I'm not trying to preach to you guys either. Matter of fact I'm rather proud to be a part of such a bunch of "kids" who ARE THINKING outside the box! I feel that the world might be a better place with you guys manning the helm!
Question everything you are taught,think "is this news caster,politician,etc. really giving me the whole story?" and please don't be afraid to ask those hard questions to your folks,mentors,us older types,or someone you really trust! Remember to never stop learning or asking and we are all here for a reason: To HELP one another!
I would really like to know why back stabbing behind-the-back behavior is so reinforced on popular TV like survivor and big brother? Think about it their actually enforceing the belief that screwing one another over is a GOOD thing!

This also reminds me of Microsoft's (or any other company's) plan to diversify its operations into other areas away from its core strength. Done well, that means Google is less dependent on searches and advertising; done badly, someone comes and eats Google's lunch. The second is more likely.
Google's founders were also planning to sell a few billion dollars' worth of held stock, if I remember right, so its future direction and leaders might change to be more corporate than entrepreneurial. This will happen anyway, but being a telecom-like company isn't Google's strong area, IMHO.

What can I say? I'll just paraphrase what the Money Desk editor once told me: If we were any good with numbers, we'd be acountants, not journalists (and a lot richer too).
By extension, we'd also be infallible scientists and not wicked storytellers.
Climate-change chief won't apologise
Just to clarify, though, from what I can remember, the story was picked up from the wires — it wasn't entirely our fault that it was written that way. And, besides, we've got Digital Life deputy editor Oo Gin Lee relishing his violent games, very publicly, on a regular basis. So... it kind of evens out, right?

Actually, I am glad today's MYB made an effort to restructure the coke-report to a better informed article. Here is the scan from today's Straits Times publication :
The red meat (found in quite a number of the local meals) and smoking (duty*cough*unpaid*cough*next*cough*door) are great examples to throw in and provide a better POV for the reader. More informative than that small report from that site eh?
But I guess in our fast-paced society and that economy problem, we can't live without fast news laden with "weasel" words rather than facts. Thank goodness I gave up that dream of being a journalist/reporter long time ago, reading is always easier than writing for a lazy person like me.
OT : And yeah, I do enjoy reading DL. Even though most game reviews are outdated by a couple of weeks, but always interesting. I can't wait to see if Mr Oo will get a coffee session with the SPH board people for writing up about AVP3 or Dante's Inferno.

Storm leaves damage trail
Making breaking news in Victoria (and headlines in tomorrow's papers) is news of a freak storm that hit Melbourne hours ago, dropping an unprecedented amount of water and leaving damage in it's wake. Just to tell you how bad it was (I was outside when it hit), approximately 10 minutes before it started pouring I saw a dark blot of cloud looming in the North west, while the other side was just patchy cloud. I walked into a library to grab a book, came out and it was spitting. Went into an Aldi store, got some chips, came out 5 minutes later and it was pouring with rain, and loud thunderclaps. As I write, it's still pouring cats and dogs out there.
The storm itself has flooded Melbourne, and severed train services. Glad I got a lift home.

For example when here we got small scale seism in the Alps, we'll be the only ones to discuss about the risks of dam rupture, or similarly, when a small scale earthquake occur in the Rhine Graben, only in our area will we reminisce the 1356 Basel earthquake, so will we be the only ones to angst over what it could do to the very concentrated chemical industry we have there, or to the neighboring french Fessenheim nuclear power plant, all of those which are by the Rhine river, which irrigates the very hearth of dynamic and densely populated Western Europe.

@JMvS - It's true that the entire world has minor earthquakes every year, I just felt it was notable to point out the one in the Chicago area because scientists believe that the fault near New Madrid is shutting down and the one in Wabash Valley may be becoming more active as the pressure in the plates shifts. The entire region is densely populated, way more than it was back in the 1800's, but there are very few educational materials about what to do when an earthquake hits.
Since so many people associate earthquakes with California there's not as much of a focus on the Midwest region. However an earthquake in the Midwest of significant magnitude could be crippling for the country, possibly devastating. In the last decade, there's been three noticeable earthquakes in the region, including a 5.2 back in 2008. I doubt we should be in a mad rush to prepare the region for "the big one", but I do support more awareness and scientific investigation of the region considering how poorly prepared we were for something like Katrina, which we knew in advance would be hitting the Gulf Coast.
On a related note, I wish this got more press too:

I know California is suppose to be like the Earthquake Capital of the world and everything... But seriously! I've only felt two Earthquakes here since 1993! Way too many people from out of state freak out about our fault lines.

Black Mini Skirt + Red Cardigan + Green Blouse
Added Oct 11, 2013
by mixtlii
Montpellier, France
Two outfits out of one skirt!
A-line with modified seams including pockets. My own pattern, I'm kind of proud of it ! My inspiration was a skirt from "comptoir des cotonniers" which had those seams going down diagonally (but no pockets!) .
Black velvet with rayon lining.
Red Cardigan
I used the pattern that goes with the "01/2012 Panties" (I can't find it on the website), it was not very easy because the fabric is a very delicate wool and it moves all the time…
Also I unpicked the darts in the back, because it ended up too tight and it looked like the fabric was going to rip off.
Green Blouse
Nothing much to say there… Polyester that looks like silk ;)
Nice but I think it might look much better on someone less busty.

KnowledgeBase 00055: Removing Redundant Mark Characters
Sometimes programs generate data in which a dynamic array has redundant mark characters that should ideally be removed. It is easy to remove trailing field marks using TRIM() but trailing value marks within a field or trailing subvalue marks in a value are, at first sight, not so simple.
The CROP() Function
The CROP() function (named from the process of removing unwanted parts in image processing) removes redundant mark characters from a supplied dynamic array.
NEW = CROP(ORIGINAL)The returned value is a dynamic array in which trailing marks at each level of data in the original string are removed.

Mahou Sensei Negima (First TV Series)
Noticed this on the torrent submissions and I don't think it was added yet, but I downloaded it.
It's a short just under 6min intro to the animated Negima (OVA/Series?) I have no idea what the actual plan for it is. But with 30+ VA's cast for the show I can't see it just being a short 3 ep OVA.
As for the initial thoughts. Didn't get to see any magic in action really so no idea how that will come across. Did get to see all the female students (in a group shot) and then they individually introduced the baka rangers, the five lowest scoring girls in the class (ALTHO THEY DIDN'T INTRODUCE THEMSELVES BY COLOR GRR)
Well before that we get the first chapter or so of the manga animated. Negi is shown in England (Although I think this whole part should have been in English...but eh) and is assigned to teach the at a girls middle school in Japan. We then see Negi arrive and introduce himself to the class when most of the girls fawn over how adorable the 10 year old is.
Segway into the previously mentioned baka ranger intros.
So we get to see and hear Asuna, Makie, Yue, Ku Fei, and Kaede. AKA Baka Ranger Red, Pink, Black, Yellow and Blue. We get to see the Kaede Bunshin No Jutsu But shh...she's not a ninja
Then at the end Ayaka busts in for her promo and I gotta say the voice for her is DEAD-ON what I always imagined while reading the manga. Kinda Sultry/Snobby.
So it looks like this could be a fun anime, the animation looks good and pretty faithfully adapted from the manga. Thanks to Meow for translating this short. It's a nice little preview, now it's just a matter of if this actually ever becomes a full-fledged anime.
Oh yea and judging by the fanservice in the preview... Please FujiTV don't air this show if it becomes an anime. You'll run out of fog effects.

Hoe? I was about to enter this forum to vring this up bu it seems that someone is faster then me... ~_~"
Well... i'm still downloading it so i can't give any opinion yet... but as i know... the manga really promising. I like the manga and that i hope it'll be as good as the manga...
Regarding the news I don't know much but according to my friend... all the seiyuu has been chosen and that the project is going smoothly... other then those news I don't know anymore.
At first Ken Akamatsu plan to enter himself into the anime like what he did in Love Hina Spring Special but suddenly he changes he mind not to do so...
Other then that, for more news... we've to wait to see the out come...lolz

Asuna's blue/green eyes are a bit distracting the way they appear in the anime. Other than that little bit of criticizm, series looks like it's off to a rather nice start, certainly looks like it'll be more than 3 ovas since they had material in there from a lot of different stories.

When I am posting this, I am still struggling to show the subtitles for this preview.
The quality of the anime looks OK.
However, as a fan of Negima manga, I find the art below my expectation, especially Asuna character. Why can't they stick to the Love Hina's standard?
Voice acting is a mixed bag. Asuna's voice is excellent and so is Ayaka's. But Negi's and Kaede's voice are still not 'right'.
By the way, where is Konoka?

I'm completely ignorant on the manga, so this preview struck me as a bolt out of the blue. It looks pretty ok and so I'll probably give it a shot, but don't most of those characters look pretty ... familiar?
In the groupshot at the end I can spot characters that look an awful lot like...
Yomiko Readman (Read or Die)
Mone-chan (Yumeria)
I think I see some To Heart and Maburaho in there.
Just about the entire Love Hina cast
In fact, I think all them are ripped from somewhere else now that I look at it again.
Is this intentional? As a piece of satire, or possibly to pay homage to the babes of fanservice?

The manga was written by Ken Akumatsu, the creator of Love Hina, so there is no surprise if all the characters looked like characters from Love Hina.
Ku Fei doesn't look like Kaolla Su anymore. In the manga, they sure look very much alike.
I wonder whose idea was it to give Asuna different colors for each eye. It just doesn't make sense.

I really love the manga and from what I saw so far it looks like the anime could be good. but if they do it as a short OVA it wouldn't really be able to show how the manga is very well
Asuna's Eyes are really wierd i don't rember them ever saying anything about her having diffrent color eyes in the manga, and it was just really distracting or something.....i dunno it buged me.

Supposedly Negima is going to be a "special short anime" that won't be out until April...sounds like an OVA, which is too bad because with 50+ chapters there's definitely enough material for a TV series:
I've got to think the TV series will come eventually, but maybe they're testing the waters with the OVA first. And I thought Azusa's eyes were distracting too, it just ruined her character design for me. On the cover of the manga posted earlier it was subtle enough to not look bad, but in the anime it just makes her look like she's possessed or something--it reminds me of Hiro from Asagiri no Miko...

Hm...why was this moved from the fansub forum into the general anime forum. Well anyways this short OVA looks absolutely fantastic I hope they do a full series on this I don't think a bunch of OVA's can fully tell its story properly.

it really isn't right to condense a series that has the potential to be twice as long as its predecessors (A.I. Love You and Love Hina) and still maintain a good story (heck, if i had that many characters to work with, i could make 52+ episodes and still have characters not developed enough...)
on the other hand, i will watch it since i'm a big fan of series that take a cliche or overused plot device and put it on the back burner in favor of character development and/or story (i've heard Akamatsu only made it into a "harem" manga at his editor's insistance, yet he's been taking a different approach than before i.e., action sequences beyond a guy getting punched to the moon, the fact that there's 1 robot and at least 3-4 different martial artists, plus a ghost and a vampire leads to...well, first a compilation of every bishoujo cliche ever made...and then some pretty decent action (i've taken a liking to Makie based on the manga so far))

Tech Companies Launch New Coalition To Keep Operating Company Patents From Ending Up Abused By Trolls
from the good-for-them dept
While other companies haven't jumped on the IPA bandwagon, it appears a bunch of tech companies are trying something different. Google, Newegg, Dropbox, SAP, Asana and Canon have teamed up to launch the "License on Transfer Network," which is a royalty-free patent cross-licensing program, for any patent that is transferred outside of the group. The basic deal is pretty straightforward: if any company in the group transfers a patent outside the group, for any reason, everyone else in the group automatically gets a royalty-free license to that patent. Obviously, this kind of program really only works if lots of companies join, but they've made it incredibly easy to join. And, as Asana notes in its blog post about the program, there are tremendous network effects as more companies join:
The LOT Network is a powerful new idea that we hope will grow rapidly. Because of the inherent network effects, every additional company that joins the coalition will be a new nail in the patent troll coffin, diminishing the size of their potential market. As this happens, everyone will be able to direct more of their energy back to creating value.Asana and Dropbox, which also put out a blog post about this both note that this only solves one aspect of the patent trolling problem, but it's still nice to see companies coming up with innovative solutions to try to pre-empt certain types of patent trolling problems.

'How to (finally) apologize' by Serena Williams
By Chris Chase
It took 36 hours, one press conference, two statements and an appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards, but Serena Williams finally issued a legitimate apology for her tirade in a U.S. Open semifinal match.
Yesterday Serena issued a statement through the USTA that was striking in its stubborness and lack of contrition. Today, before she and her sister Venus were to play in the womens' doubles finals, Serena released a new, real apology:
Whether she means it or not is irrelevent at this point. It had to be said, if only to appease the masses and stop the hail of criticism being lobbed at her.
For what it's worth, the odds are that Serena doesn't mean it. It's more likely someone (either her handlers, sponsors or USTA bigwigs) got to her and let her know that a sincere-sounding apology was necessary to stem the backlash.
Serena has been defiant about the incident since it happened, even joking about it last night at the MTV Video Music Awards. It certainly doesn't seem like she's sorry for it. Rather, all of her actions and statements indicate that Serena still thinks this is about the atrocious foot fault call instead of her tirade.
Whatever she thinks (and only she can know that), at least Serena had the sense to finally issue a "real" apology. That's a start.
Update: And we're back to square one. After Serena and Venus won the U.S. Open women's doubles title Monday, Serena passed up a chance to apologize in person for Saturday night. Instead she babbled the same nonsense about loving her fans for "understanding".

Check out our full review of Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Touch ultrabook.
Remember last month when Lenovo accidentally let slip some details about its new ThinkPad X1 Carbon laptop? Well, we now have the official announcement from the company that the new computer will indeed be designed for touch. The X1 Carbon Touch will be similar to its traditional laptop counterpart, with the use of lightweight carbon fiber keeping it at an airy 3.4 pounds and a mere 20.8-millimeters thick. That's a little heftier than the non-touch X1 Carbon, but still pretty portable compared to other laptops on the market. As was rumored in November, the 14-inch HD+ screen supports 10-finger touch, so you can be fully hands-on with the machine.
One of the common complaints about Windows 8 so far is that, for many folks, the combination of the tablet-friendly interface and the classic PC interface proved confusing. It's possible that putting this binary OS onto a similarly double-capable computer will help alleviate those complications. Hybrids have proven just as polarizing as the new Microsoft OS, so potential buyers will want to go to a brick-and-mortar store to give the X1 Carbon Touch a spin before committing.
In terms of specs, the basic model comes with an Intel Core i5 processor, 4GB of memory, and is preloaded with Windows 8 64-bit. The more powerful model has an Intel Core i7, 8GB of memory, and Windows 8 Pro 64-bit as an OS. The computers are the first Ultrabooks optimized for Microsoft Lync, a unified-communications platform for Windows users. The most basic model starts at $1,399 through partner retailers, and the fully-loaded one is $1,649. According to Lenovo's website, the Touch Ultrabooks won't ship until Dec. 21 – just in time for Christmas.

Pinocchio Part 31C
Bernie Wolf does 40 shots of Jiminy. Don Towsley does 51. Woolie Reitherman does 46. John Elliotte does 42. The shot count doesn't necessarily reflect footage, but it does give an indication that Kimball's contribution, on screen at least, was a minority of Jiminy.
There are roughly 186 shots of Geppetto, admittedly many of them only hands or feet as he's interacting with pets or clocks. Of these, Art Babbitt animated 67, or slightly more than a third of all shots. Bill Tytla animated 23 Geppetto shots, all in the opening sequences.
How much did the supervising animators contribute to other animators' shots? Did the supervisors supply poses or timing? Were they responsible for the hand-outs, where they would go over what was needed in each shot with another animator before that animator would start work? Would they call for changes on other animators' work before it was viewed by the sequence director and the overall directors?
I'm sure that involvement varied by supervisor and by which animator they were supervising. I doubt that Art Babbitt had to work as carefully with Bill Tytla on Geppetto as he did with Bill Shull, Walt Kelly or Don Patterson. Did the supervising animators give as much attention to action scenes as they did to personality scenes?
While Ward Kimball and Art Babbitt were interviewed multiple times, I don't recall reading anything detailing how they worked a supervisors. I certainly wish more of that information was available in print.
This is probably my last post on Pinocchio, at least as part of this series. I want to thank Hans Perk and Michael Sporn again for supplying the animator draft. While I've never had any contact with Alberto Becattini, I owe him a thanks for his database of animators. Many of the less well-known animators and effects animators on Pinocchio were new to me and Becattini's database allowed me to make intelligent guesses as to first names.
For those of you with long memories (or have bothered to access my archives), you'll know that I did mosaics for shorts before tackling Pinocchio. I think that I'll be returning to the shorts for at least a while, though I wouldn't rule out another feature sometime in the future. One other thing I very much want to try is to analyze individual animated shots. I don't know if words are sufficient to explain everything happening on screen, but I want to take a stab at it.

As I may have noted here, Kimball only animates ONE shot of the Cheshire Cat throughout "Alice in Wonderland", despite being credited as the supervising animator of that character.
Milt Gray gave me the general idea of what a supervising animator did in those Disney features though - he simply set the look of the scenes he's supervising, not necessarily animating all of it.
I agree though, Mark, it would be great to have more detailed accounts on this process.

Its interesting to see how Ward Kimball only animates 47 shots of Jiminy Cricket, and yet Don Towsley animated 51 shots of Jiminy, I mean I think Ward did a good job on animating Jiminy, I DO also think that Woolie Reitherman's Jiminy is a little dodgy because he gives him a round head and he looks older, and if you look at "Sequence 3, scene 52" Woolie's drawing of Jiminy looks quite simaliar to the Kimball drawings, maybe he wasn't used to the Kimball drawings, and he did it his own way, anyway he will always be credited for animating Monstro the Whale.

SACRAMENTO — State lawmakers Thursday finally ended the three-month stalemate that brought California to the brink of financial collapse -- but now it is up to voters to keep the budget package from unraveling.
The spending plan, which wipes out a nearly $42-billion projected deficit with tax hikes, deep program cuts and borrowing, hinges on $5.8 billion contained in several ballot measures that voters must approve in a special election May 19. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is expected to sign the package today.
There are any number of reasons voters may not cooperate. The four temporary tax hikes in the budget are substantial and the ballot proposals would prolong them. Polls show that voter disgust with the Legislature has reached all-time highs. Some well-funded special interest groups are already plotting campaigns against the measures.
"Given how disaffected voters are and how really disgusted they are, you might find all the ballot measures could get swept away," said Democratic strategist Darry Sragow.

Hey, guys, I'm Emmie.
I'm married, but my husband, who's a lot older than I am, spends so much
time working that he doesn't have time enough for me. Can you believe
it? I mean, would you work late every night when this was waiting at
home for you? I don't get it either, but it means I'm always horny.
I meet guys
once in a while for some no-strings-attached sex in hotel rooms, but that's
just not enough. I love phone sex, it's so hot to know that there are
guys out there who will talk to me about anything, who'll tell me their
hottest fantasy and let me tell them mine. So, give me a call.
Don't let all this go to waste.

The Halcyon strap is easy enough to DIY if you have the time/inclination:
As an aside, if you have the choice, chose an aluminum pony. The steel ones are very negative and much harder to use.

As for sling systems for carrying off board gas, there are plenty to choose from Halcyon (which has been mentioned), Dive Rite, Oxycheq, Golem, Hollis, etc. In addition to the standard sling, I suggest also adding side mount bungee (used by cave divers using sidemount rigs instead of back mounted doubles) to hold the valve end of the tank up by your ribs, rather than have it drag in the dirt when you are in the water. There is plenty of discussions on this topic over at rebreatherworld.com.

If you use a small bailout, you need to plan your diving as if you are diving with the equivalent nitrox in open circuit, in order to be able to go directly to surface on all time in the case of bailout.
Just my 2 cents.

If I can't source the right size bailout cylinder, I'll usually just slap the rigging on a 80cf ally and deal with that. If doing shallow non-deco stuff, I'll just rely on my onboard dil as bailout (yes, I'm aware many say this is inadequate so please don't tell me how foolish I am).

text: Hi, i've seen that plugins are called by events. Each plugin will subscribe for an event and then called when this event is triggerd. This is good, but how can I get a feedback from the plugin? Are plugin able to send back a response to the caller or the communication is just in one-way ISPConfig -> Plugin only ? For example, what happens if some plugin actions doesn't work as expected ? How can I get this from ISPConfig ? next question: modules announce some events and then each module will register itself for some database table changes. Each db change will trigger one or more event (announced by modules) that will call the plugin ? For example: - module web announce an event called "web_domain_insert" - module web register for web_domain db table change. On each change it will trigger the "process" method inside itself - module web process method will trigger an event "web_domain_insert" - the event "web_domain_insert" is detected by plugin "apache2_plugin" that was listening for that event due to the method "onLoad" In this way, each module is able to create custom events, trigger some events based on db changes and plugins are able to trigger some action due to the event registration, right?

Sequestration hasn't seemed to capture the nation's attention in quite the same way as past manufactured fiscal crises.
Continue Reading Below
Perhaps it's the term itself. Few people know what sequestration actually means and fewer still can explain its origins.
And clearly sequestration, fairly reeking as it does of Washington, D.C., wonkishness, lacks the panache of, say, a "fiscal cliff," falling far short descriptively from that recent verbal threat in terms of its ability to raise a panic.
Then there's the possibility that many Americans actually broadly agree with any plan that requires the U.S. government to scale back on spending, especially a plan that doesn't discriminate among programs.
Sequestration, for better or worse, requires across-the-board spending cuts totaling between $44 billion and $85 billion in 2013 (depending on whose numbers you believe). So, no one's pet causes are spared: military projects favored by Republicans are facing the same percentage of cuts as social programs treasured by Democrats.
In other words, the cuts, whether you approve of them or not, are widely viewed as being doled out fairly.
And to add some perspective, the $44 billion to $85 billion in proposed cuts will come from a 2013 budget that calls for $3.8 trillion in spending. Pocket change at best.
But back to the initial point. Few Americans would argue that the federal government couldn't and shouldn't scale back on spending, given the broad knowledge that the U.S. budget deficit is currently tipping the scales at a record breaking $1.1 trillion. Add to that a growing awareness that the deficit will only grow as health-care costs and entitlement expenditures tied to popular programs such as Social Security and Medicare soar as millions of baby boomers approach retirement age.
So if not viewed necessarily as a "win-win," Americans apparently aren't viewing sequestration as a "lose-lose" either. Most don't seem to care one way or the other.
Sequestration Lacks Imminent Threat
Other recent crises manufactured in Washington by politicians hoping to further their singular agendas have included imminent threats of tangible and sizable ramifications.
The debt limit crisis in the summer of 2011, which served as a template for all of the crises to follow, involved a looming threat of U.S. default, a once-unthinkable humiliation for the largest and most important economy in the world.
And despite a last-minute compromise -- one that included the creation of the sequestration cuts now poised to take effect -- another parallel threat came to fruition: ratings firm Standard & Poor's slashed the U.S. credit rating for the first time in history, a move that roiled markets for several days and put a dent in America's long-held position of economic superiority.
Another budget impasse in December of 2011 caused in part by the abject failure of a bipartisan "super committee" formed specifically to slash government spending included the threat of a full or partial government shutdown. It's unclear which party would have received the blame for such a closure, but neither side apparently wanted to risk it given how badly Republicans fared after the federal shutdown of 1995.
Then there was the fiscal cliff in December. That deadline posed not only the same threat of mandated across-the-board budget cuts, but also broad tax increases that would have hurt middle-class Americans far more than the wealthy.
That threat was also eliminated -- or, more accurately, postponed -- by virtue of a last-minute deal, heralded with much fanfare at various media events.
The fiscal cliff deal brought us to where we are today, hours away from the mandated across-the-board cuts first proposed in 2011, ostensibly as an option so absurd some type of budget compromise would be inevitable. But that never happened.
Scare Tactics
Instead we have the president, members of his administration and various Democrats warning of all manner of Armageddon if the cuts go into effect. President Obama warned earlier this week that homeland security could be threatened by delays to repairs to Navy aircraft carriers caused by the proposed budget cuts.
Air traffic control, public safety, food inspections, access to public parks, and many other services provided by the federal government are all at risk if no agreement is reached to stave off the cuts, the president suggested.
Meanwhile, Obama's education secretary Arne Duncan speculated that 40,000 teachers could be laid off if the cuts go into effect. And Immigration and Customs Enforcement released several hundred illegal immigrants citing the need to reduce costs ahead of sequestration, a move sharply criticized by Republicans.
But neither side seems in any hurry to reach a compromise on sequestration, apparently comfortable that the impact won't be severe enough to warrant an immediate backlash from the public.
They're probably right. Apparently it's not just Republicans who believe the Democrats are using scare tactics in an effort to pressure Republicans into concessions on raising taxes as part of a deal to avoid sequestration.
Most Americans either aren't paying attention to this manufactured crisis, aren't falling for the scare tactics, or believe the cuts aren't the worst thing to happen in Washington lately.

BOCES is looking to do what it can to prevent teen suicide.
BOCES has formed the Putnam Northern Westchester Regional Suicide Safety Leadership Team which is facilitated by Assistant Superintendent Lynn Allen. The team collaborates with the Putnam County Department of Community Services, Westchester County Department of Community Mental Health, and Putnam and Westchester Suicide Prevention Task Forces.
The team meets monthly. Its network can be activated to provide specialized support to schools and communities in the aftermath of a suicide, and it will work closely with BOCES' Regional Crisis Team if one occurs.
The group hopes to educate school communities regarding suicide safety, providing a vetted list of resources, conducting sequenced training and establishing best practices in suicide safety.
"Our purpose is to provide a user-friendly, coordinated means for schools and communities to access expertise, guidance, support, and resources to create an environment of suicide safety," said Allen.

Japan's Murakami leads 4 Continents after short
TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — Japanese figure skater Kanako Murakami led the women's short program on Thursday at the Four Continents, a tournament she was initially reluctant to attend.
Murakami gracefully executed a double triple toe jump and a triple flip jump that put her at the top of a tightly contested race with 64.73 points, just ahead of Li Zijun of China on 62.84 and fellow Japanese Haruka Imai at 62.72.
Murakami was on her way to her first Winter Olympics and said the Four Continents was building her confidence and refining her program.
"I didn't want to come to the Four Continents but now I'm glad I came here," she said. "Of course there are things that can be improved."
In ice dance, Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue of the United States overwhelmed the competition in the free dance to win the gold medal by almost five points.
They scored 97.20 in the free, nearly six points better than second-place Piper Gilles and Paul Poirer, and left the Canadians with the silver. Alexandra Aldridge and Daniel Eaton of the United States retained third place.
"We've learned a tremendous amount about our partnership this season," Hubble said. "I feel that we finally have proven ourselves as a strong consistent team that deserves to be at the top."

Dockwise Ltd : Dockwise to review merits of intended offer Boskalis
By: Marketwired .
Nov. 26, 2012 01:54 AM
BREDA, THE NETHERLANDS -- (Marketwire) -- 11/26/12 -- Dockwise Ltd. confirms it has received an unsolicited intended offer from Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V. ('Boskalis') for the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Dockwise at an offer price of EUR 17.20 per share cum dividend. The intended offer by Boskalis is subject to certain specified and unspecified conditions.
The Board of Directors of Dockwise, together with its financial and legal advisers, will consider the intended offer of Boskalis to assess its merits, risks and the consequences for Dockwise and its shareholders, as well as its employees and other stakeholders, compared with the stand-alone strategy of Dockwise and other alternatives.
In preliminary discussions, initiated by Boskalis, the strategic rationale for a combination of Dockwise and Boskalis was presented by Boskalis. As part of the evaluation process by the Board of Directors, Dockwise will seek clarification from Boskalis with regard to its intended offer.
André Goedée, CEO of Dockwise, comments on the developments:
"This unsolicited approach for our Company has arrived not only during a phase of successful strategic development, but also during a period of intense tendering in the upstream arena. With the strategic acceleration in logistic management and the addition of new vessels, such as the Dockwise Vanguard and the Dockwise White Marlin, the Company is well positioned in the Oil and Gas upstream and downstream environment. From this position the Company is well suited to manage its next steps on a standalone basis. The medium term outlook in the Oil and Gas upstream and downstream environment clearly emphasises that there will be opportunities to establish new backlog records for Dockwise in the near future. Our position built in our individual markets, on top of our unrivalled leadership in Heavy Marine, Transport, leads to the conclusion that any offer made for the Company should fully reflect our strong market position and should clearly serve the interests of the Company as a whole, including all our shareholders, as well as our employees, clients and other stakeholders."
Further announcements will be made if and when appropriate.
This is a press release in accordance with Section 5:25i paragraph 2 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht) and is subject of the disclosure requirements pursuant to section 5-12 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.

CK Onewonderful basketSeptember 30, 2013
I did not see it, but a friend did, and told me he thought the basket was from Corporate because it looked like something a corporation would send. He said I did a good job for my friend's family, who just experienced a devastating loss. Thank you! I have used your company several times in the past for funeral baskets and birthdays and have always received positive feedback.
bellarigazzaLovely and appropriateSeptember 18, 2013
Since I was only able to see the photo the recipients said the basket was beautifully presented and they appreciated the delicious assortment of products. I did omit the summer sausage as I saw several others did too in their reviews (glad I read them) for various reasons, religious, vegetarian, etc.
So, maybe the meat should be a substitute item and not part of the original basket....
First time using GiftTree and would do it again.
auntGsophististicated gourmet fruit basketSeptember 14, 2013
This was the most beautiful basket I have ever seen,
and the fruit was beyond perfect. My sisters husband
died last week & I just wanted something special.
Her one son called me to say "ya did it again aunt G"
she received 4, 3 ok, just ok, but this one put the
others to shame. I had to laugh, her 3 sons fought
to get the goodies, their ages 46-40-39. They said it
looked so perfect no one wanted to be the first to
"dig in". You now have a very happy client.

I sent this to our neighbor due to a death in the family. She told me it was amazing, something for everyone in the family and she was very appreciative. She said the presentation was beautiful and the products fresh. Not often do you get to hear the recipient's review when you're the sender. I'm glad we had a way to bless them like this.

Ordering these types of gifts blindly can be very risky. But the recipients of this gift said that they were "bowled over" by the size and quality of this basket. Then they clarified---"no... we literally fell over!" That's exactly the kind of thing the gift-giver wants to hear when blindly sending a gift that could be underwhelming or mediocre. Thank you, GiftTree!

Burgundy Grape Harvest 2012
Taking a break from leading gastronomic cycling holidays in Burgundy, I got back intp the vines for a second year for the annual grape harvest. Picking and hauling the fruits that become the best wine on the planet is hard but rewarding work. While 2011 was blessed with sunshine, 2012 was not! Cold and wet, heavy rain, thick mud and chilling temperatures made for a hard few days. Here are a selction of images from working the 2012 harvest with Drouhin Laroze.

Stock-market operator Nasdaq OMX Group (NASDAQ:NDAQ) announced plans on Wednesday to shell out $390 million in cash to buy the public relations and investor relations divisions of Thomson Reuters (NYSE:TRI).

The move by Nasdaq, which is the parent of the Nasdaq Stock Market, is part of a campaign aimed at developing a comprehensive portfolio of services for listing clients amid a slowdown in trading revenue.
In addition to the IR and PR units of Thomson Reuters, Nasdaq said it is buying the company's multimedia solutions businesses, which provide insight and analytics to more than 7,000 clients around the globe.
"In one acquisition, we accelerate and achieve our Corporate Solutions long-term objectives, while maintaining our balanced strategy of delivering value to shareholders," Nasdaq CEO Bob Greifeld said in a statement. "The combination of these two successful companies represents a distinct opportunity to create a truly unique client experience through premier content and best in class platforms."
The new businesses will be housed within Nasdaq's corporate solutions division, aiming to build on the company's non-transaction revenue base, which is already at over 70% of total revenue.
Nasdaq sees the deal adding to its adjusted bottom line within 12 months and closing in the first half of next year.
The IR services business includes products used for shareholder analysis and communication, including the ThomsonONE IR and IR website hosting.
The PR services division features a slew of web-based tools and a self-service press release platform along with a media contacts database.
Michael Cotter, global managing director of corporate services at Thomson Reuters, said the combination will allow the companies "to deliver one of the industry's most comprehensive and innovative suites of solutions to IR, PR and communications professionals around the world."
Shares of New York-based Nasdaq gained 1.19% to $23.83 on the news, trimming their 2012 slump to about 3%.
Thomson Reuters, which is also based in New York, saw its shares rise 0.94% to $28.93, leaving them up about 8.5% on the year.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch (NYSE:BAC) and Barclays (NYSE:BCS) served as advisors on the deal.
