Welsh Conservatives revive grammar school idea
"The best elements" of the old grammar school system would be revived if the Welsh Conservatives took power in Cardiff Bay, the party says.
It believes the move would raise standards although it is not calling for a return of the 11-plus exam.
The party said pupils should be separated by ability at 14 into academic and vocational streams.
The head teachers' union said the "intriguing" idea currently left questions unanswered.
There are no remaining grammar schools in Wales and only 164 in England.
Writing in the Daily Telegraph, the Welsh Conservatives' shadow education minister Angela Burns said: "I think it is time that we revisited the successful elements of grammar schools and sought apply it to a modern Welsh system.
"If we did that we might again see a Wales where excellence is championed in a dual education system."
Prime Minister David Cameron is not in favour of increasing selective education in England, a policy that has caused disquiet in the Conservative party and led to the resignation of front-bencher Graham Brady in 2007.
Under devolution, the Welsh Tories are free to set their own policy independent of Mr Cameron's party in London.
A Conservative Central Office spokesman said: "We don't have an opinion on Welsh education policy because it is a devolved matter."
If they were in power, the Welsh Conservatives would not adopt the old system of academic testing at 11, which Ms Burns concedes was divisive.
But she insists the dual education system would raise standards and help brighter pupils from poorer backgrounds.
Welsh Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies said too many pupils were coming out of education with the wrong type of qualification for employers and it was about making the right choices - academic and vocational - at the age of 14.
Pupils would remain in the same schools where appropriate but some would carry on with academic subjects, while others would take vocational options.
Mr Davies told BBC Radio Wales they wanted to "bring the best elements of the grammar school system" and that the current system was failing in Wales.
"Ultimately you are good at vocational courses that would qualify you for the workplace in a vocational manner - or academia," he said.
"What we have at the moment is a system that actually constrains academic achievement and this homogenised blob that says everyone is the same.
"That's no good for the 21st Century. We have got to be pushing academics and we have got to be pushing vocational courses and have parity between the two."
He added: "If we're going to develop an economy that's fit for the 21st Century we have to have learners coming out of education with the qualifications that are robust and appropriate."
Ms Burns cited research from London University's Institute of Education which she said shows that the abolition of grammar schools has blocked disadvantaged pupils' "escape routes" to top universities and high-paid professional careers.
'Unanswered questions'
She added: "Instead of separating academic children from their more vocational counterparts, we could see the benefit of creating two equitable streams of education, one alongside the other, a dualling that begins at 14 - giving children the chance to develop important core subject skills before embarking on their chosen path."
Welsh Education Minister Huw Lewis said he "thought someone was pulling my leg" when he was told of the Welsh Conservatives' proposal.
Mr Lewis wrote a series of messages on Twitter criticising the policy, saying the Labour-run Welsh government was "committed to excellent schools for all, not encouraging a parental scramble for advantage".
There were numerous unanswered questions about the Tory plan, he said, including whether pupils would remain in the same school after the age of 14 and whether all would take the GCSE qualification.
The head teachers' union called it an "intriguing development" for Wales, where grammar schools were a "distant memory for most."
Anna Brychan, director of NAHT Cymru said the proposals currently raised more questions than they answered.
"The grammar school system is remembered positively by those who benefited from it," she said. "That same system disenfranchised very many of our young people.
"Ultimately the test for us will be what system can give all pupils the best opportunity to learn and prosper."

HONOLULU (AP) - Isaac Fotu scored 16 of his 26 points in the second half as Hawaii handed Cal Poly its fourth consecutive loss Saturday night, 69-60.
Fotu, who came into the game leading the Big West Conference in field goal percentage (.608), connected on 10 of 13 field goals and 6 of 8 free throws.
Hawaii (16-7, 5-4 Big West), which trailed for the majority of the first half, used a 13-3 run that bridged the two halves to open up a 34-24 lead with 19:40 remaining. The Rainbow Warriors wouldn't trail again.
Brian Bennett hit a jumper to pull Cal Poly (8-14, 4-5) within 54-53 with 6:30 left but the 'Bows used a 10-2 run over the next 5:39 to put the game away.
Christian Stanhardinger scored 18 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the win.
Dave Nwaba and Kyle Odister scored 12 apiece for Cal Poly, which shot 38.6 percent.

Football fans attacked in France
A group of up to 50 masked thugs attacked a bar packed with English football fans in Lyon on Wednesday night.
Tottenham Hotspur supporters were in the Smoking Dog pub before their team's game in the French city.
Witnesses said three Tottenham fans were taken to hospital, one with a head injury, and claimed the attack had an anti-Semitic motive.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) said it was aware of reports of an attack and was offering assistance.
Tottenham fans said the attackers, some making Nazi salutes, smashed doors and threw cast iron chairs, wooden objects, and a flare into the pub, where up to 150 supporters were drinking. They said the attack on the bar, which is popular among ex-pats, happened at 10.18pm. The thugs returned shortly afterwards to launch another assault on the pub, which was damaged extensively as a result.
Landlord, Dave Eales from Retford, Nottinghamshire, said: "At 10.18 the pub was rammed with Tottenham fans watching the Champions League on the television. The front of the pub, which is made up of reinforced glass, was attacked by 20-25 people. They threw projectiles through the windows. There was a stand off. They didn't get into the bar. Then it calmed down. Then they came back a second time and it all started again. There were three injured Tottenham fans taken away by ambulance. One of them had a head injury. I'm not sure how bad it was."
It is the second time that Tottenham fans have been targeted by an apparent anti-Semitic attack in the last three months. In November, fans of the club, which has a traditionally strong Jewish following, were ambushed inside a pub in Rome on the eve of their game against Lazio. Far-right thugs were blamed for that knife attack, and two witnesses claimed the assaults last night could have had an anti-Semitic motive.
One, who did not want to be named, said: "There were 50 who attacked in the first wave and 25 in the second. It's a pretty scary thing when you're confronted by people doing Nazi salutes. A lit flare was thrown through the window as well as the heavy weight, the kind that's used on terraces to hold down umbrellas. It was terrifying. I've never seen anything like it. They threw iron stools through the windows as well."
Tottenham fan James Taylor drove through the night from his home in Ilford, Essex, to attend the Europa League second round second leg clash. He had no doubt that this was not a random attack. "It was pre-meditated, pre-arranged. It was nothing to do with Spurs fans," he said.
Tottenham Hotspur Football Club said they were aware of reports of the attack.

Barnes & Noble Inc.'s shares fell as much as 16% on Thursday after John Malone's Liberty Media said it's slashing its holdings in Barnes & Noble to about 1.7% from the 17% stake it held in 2011.
As a result, Liberty Media, which also has stake in other companies including SiriusXM and Live Nation, will no longer have the right to elect two preferred stock directors to Barnes & Noble's /quotes/zigman/132169/delayed /quotes/nls/bks BKS board. It also won't have a say in various actions of the company, including its strategic directions and the bookstore operator's ability to issue preferred stock.
"By reducing our preferred position and eliminating some of our related rights, Barnes & Noble will gain greater flexibility to accomplish their strategic objectives," said Liberty Media /quotes/zigman/13637761/delayed /quotes/nls/lmca LMCA President and Chief Executive Officer Greg Maffei, who will step down from Barnes & Noble's board.
Microsoft /quotes/zigman/20493/delayed /quotes/nls/msft MSFT still retains its 16.8% stake from 2012 in Nook Media and Pearson /quotes/zigman/155525/realtime UK:PSON owns 5% of Nook Media, which includes Barnes & Noble's Nook e-reader business and its college bookstore business.
"Liberty's sale does not change Barnes & Noble's capital structure or its plans to rationalize the Nook business," which accounts for about 7.7% of the company's total, said Barnes & Noble spokeswoman Mary Ellen Keating. "We continue to explore opportunities to optimize shareholder value."
While news of a big insider selling its shares stirs uncertainty, analysts said the "short-term negative" may actually turn out to be something positive for Barnes & Noble.
This presents "intriguing potential to be setup for longer-term positive," said Stifel analyst David Schick in a report. "Longer term, it is also a step towards simplifying a complex ownership structure for (Barnes & Noble.)"
He said Liberty Media's relinquishing its rights could be good, and suggests "further changes to" Barnes & Noble's ownership structures are coming, including a potential expansion of its relationship with Microsoft or partnership with a third-party hardware manufacturer.
Still, he noted both scenarios would be "inconsistent" with the company's recent moves.
In March, Barnes & Noble amended its agreement with Microsoft and is no longer obligated to develop a Nook Windows 8 app. Nook for Windows 8 has been introduced in 32 countries.
Barnes & Noble CEO Michael Huseby, who took over in January after William Lynch left last year, has said the company is finding third-party manufacturers to make its Nook color tablet device. Barnes & Noble has struggled to reverse losses at Nook amid competition from much larger rivals from Amazon /quotes/zigman/63011/delayed /quotes/nls/amzn AMZN to Apple /quotes/zigman/68270/delayed /quotes/nls/aapl AAPL . As it seeks to retool its money-losing Nook business, it has cut 190 Nook positions, mostly in California, or 26% of Nook's headcount.
Janney Capital Markets analyst David Strasser said Liberty Media's smaller stake also could be "a delayed reaction" to Lynch's departure.
"At the time it was a strong vote of confidence in the company's Nook business and its ability to compete with Amazon. It was also a vote of confidence in William Lynch," he said, adding the share sale could also reflect Barnes & Noble's decision to de-emphasize the Nook business.
Meanwhile, Barnes & Noble said it's committed to its Nook business and will produce more content despite finding a third-party hardware manufacturer.
Strasser said he sees two things that could turn positive for the company longer term. With Liberty no longer able to block company actions, Barnes & Noble's Founder and Chairman Leonard Riggio could take the retail business private.
"This is further evidence that the company is returning to its roots as a bookseller and college bookstore business, with pretty predictable results, and an (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) that may be modestly declining but still relatively stable," he said. "Based on these numbers, the stock has longer term potential."

Tarvaris Jackson is an underdog to start at quarterback for the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. But coach Doug Marrone at least is giving the impression that Jackson has a chance to compete with Kevin Kolb and EJ Manuel.
Jackson led the quarterback rotation at the Bills' organized team activities on Tuesday. Marrone indicated, via BuffaloBills.com, that arrangement would change daily until one player stepped up, but it's still notable Jackson is part of the mix. (And that he went first.)
It's not like Kolb's track record particularly is better than Jackson's. It wouldn't be that shocking if Marrone decided Jackson is the better player of the two veterans.
Then again, Jackson knows that taking the first snap doesn't mean much. He also was first in line in the three-way battle including Matt Flynn and Russell Wilson last year with the Seattle Seahawks, and Jackson barely wound up getting any snaps in training camp before getting shipped to the Bills.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.

Something wrong with original chassis according to Vettel
Sebastian Vettel has admitted there was "something wrong" with his original 2014 Red Bull chassis.
After Barcelona, where the German impressed at the wheel of Red Bull's winter testing monocoque, it was reported that the team had discovered a 'bend' in the car with which Vettel struggled during the first four races of 2014.
Red Bull immediately denied the report.
But the story has now been repeated by the major German daily Bild-Zeitung.
Vettel is quoted as saying: "I knew there was something wrong. I had lost all trust under braking for the corners and accelerating out of them."
Dr Helmut Marko, Red Bull's outspoken director, does not deny Vettel's claim that something was "not right" with the car Vettel originally dubbed 'Suzie'.
"The chassis was not really bent, but in some places it just was not one hundred per cent right."
Marko said Vettel will stay at the wheel of the winter testing chassis for the time being, "but soon he will get a new one".
Reigning quadruple world champion Vettel is not even ruling out his first win of the season next weekend in Monaco.
"At Monaco you don't need as much engine power as you do at other circuits," he is quoted by SID news agency.
"Maybe some rain could help us as well. There is always a chance to win," added Vettel.

text: Dry November Zaps Wheat Crop December 11, 2012 01:43 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By AgWeb.com Editors Email Dry weather from South Dakota to Texas left the United States winter wheat conditions at their lowest levels since records of that type were initiated by USDA NASS in 1986. By November 25, more than one-quarter (26%) of the wheat was rated very poor to poor, fueled by abysmal crop ratings in South Dakota (64% very poor to poor), Nebraska (46%), Oklahoma (44%), Texas (40%), Colorado (34%), and Kansas (25%). In contrast, beneficial precipitation fell across northern California and from the Pacific Northwest to Montana and North Dakota. Still, winter wheat struggled to emerge on the northern Plains due to the seasonal decline in temperatures. By November 25, a significant portion of the wheat had not yet emerged in South Dakota (60% emerged) and Montana (68%). Toward month's end, precipitation intensity increased across northern California and the Northwest. However, mild weather accompanied the storminess, limiting high-elevation snowfall. As a result, the end-of-month water content of the Sierra Nevada snow pack stood at just 4 inches, about 85% of normal for November 30. Most areas from the Mississippi Valley to the East Coast experienced a cool, dry November. In the northern Mid-Atlantic region, dry weather aided recovery efforts from Hurricane Sandy. Farther south, mostly dry conditions promoted Southeastern fieldwork-including winter wheat planting and cotton and soybean harvesting-but caused renewed drought intensification in Alabama and the southern Atlantic States. Monthly temperatures averaged more than 5 degrees Fahrenheit below normal in portions of the southern Atlantic region, but generally ranged from 5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit above normal across the central and southern High Plains and adjacent areas of the Intermountain West. …………………………………………………………… Coverage, Analysis of the Dec. 11 USDA Reports See all of the data, coverage and analysis of the World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates and Crop Production reports.

Parting of the Ways
Firstly, Eve Myles will be appearing alongside Trevor Eve in a new BBC One drama commission, titled Framed. According to DigitalSpy, "the programme, adapted from Frank Cottrell Boyce's best-selling children's novel, sees a secretive convoy of men invade a Welsh village." It's expected to air this Winter on the BBC.
Also coming up, John Barrowman will be travelling across the globe as part of this year's Children in Need extravaganza Around the World in 80 Days. Various celebrities will be paired up, and travel segments of the world together. John's partner is the ever lovely (if boring...) Myleene Klass. Other celebs taking part include Lee Mack and Frank "I'm funny me, honest" Skinner. ETA - October/November.
5.8 million viewers (26.7% of the available audience) saw the last part of the Children of Earth serial on BBC One last night, making it the 4th most watched programme of the day.
We'll have a full ratings round-up in a couple of weeks when the full data breakdown is released.
In the meantime you can catch Torchwood: Children of Earth on DVD and Blu-Ray from Monday at all good entertainment outlets.

This was probably the saddest ending I've ever seen, much worse for me than the series 4 of Doctor Who.
What now? where is it going. is it going to continue.
I very much hope that it has not ended and that Jack comes back.

Lauren> I guess it's about Who, then, you're right. I don't watch Dr Who (one of the few people who can't stand Who but loves Torchwood). I guess that's the beauty of references, it can mean anything :p
I don't think Eve starring in another drama has any impact on Torchwood - if there is a fourth season, it's likely to be broadcast next year, not this winter. Same goes for Barrowman.

My hope is after Eve and Kia have this baby they will both go in to try and rebuild. I mean I am sure they can get those unit spec-ops people in to rebuild the hub.
they just can't end it.

I'm not sure if i should be smoking a cigarette, or crying hysterically while balled up in the corner...Either way,the writers have left me with a head full of grog and my knickers about my ankles, figuratively speaking. When i'd first heard of torchwood, i thought it would get lost wandering beyond the safety of the little blue box. And it almost did. More than one episode tried to imitate all of the fun campyness, but lacked the quirky wit of a gallifreyan vagabond to balance it out. ...then, about halfway into season one, the cast, writers, and directors found their stride. This was to be about the messes that the doctor leaves behind, and the ones he never saw. ...Beyond the confines of the police box apperantly, there's a universe that only smiles through it's tears. A universe that might be a tad close to our flats. One where desire is muddled, love is unrequited, and the best solutions available is a slapshod patch.
So, almost seemingly against my will, i've been drawn in. Spent some two odd years now getting cozy with these half mad people, led by one immortal to clean up after another immortals messy fallout. I admit. I've become a fan. I like the more adult storylines, getting to peek through the TARDIS's keyhole and into the bedroom antics of the people beyond it. Seeing that in fact humans are not as nearly as helpless as the doctor would lead you to think!
That all being said...The finale of season two was like someone stealing my car while i was napping in the back seat. This five part miniseries akin to being kicked in the gut while someone shoots your brother. We'd always expected it to end this way, but not this soon. ...Perhaps akin to finding out in act two who the killer was in would throw off a murder mystery novel. Perhaps they will surprise me again, and leap out of the plot corner they've painted in...We will have to see! But i have to say, i WILL miss Ianto. Out of all the characters, he was the most like any of us, and i think that without his humanity to redeem them(especially jack) that the rest will be cast adrift, gradually fading off into the distance beyond even the reach of mighty Rassilon himself.
We shall see.

I've been reading the reviews, adding to them, crying, praising, feeling gutted, and being impressed. I joined a listserve that was developing a petition to bring back Ianto. I even started a fanfic with how he could come back.
But I just came to the realization after calming down that it doesn?t matter that I found the relationship between Jack and Ianto compelling, that I loved the characters just the way they were, that I would have loved to see one more season of the three of them fighting alien threats. Really, when you break it down, this is just a job for these actors. Gareth has to love how he went out on this one because of the world-wide attention he and the character he portrayed is getting. He ended on an extremely high note and how many people can say that in their career. This has got to be a highlight. And although I think he and John and Eve were very good friends and from all indications got together even off camera. And no matter how much Russell liked him and his acting abilities. And no matter how many viewers loved the Ianto character. Leaving the show this way has got to be a huge boost for his career and I hope he is able to capitalize on it. As I hope the other actors do as well. John is well established and doesn?t show any signs of stopping. Eve sounds like she has her hands full for right now. So I'm really, really happy for all of them. I will continue to watch for anything that Gareth, John, or Eve do in the future.
I'm going to finish my fiction, but I have little hope that it or any other version of resurrection will occur. Torchwood may go on. I think John is interested and from some comments from Russell, I think he is interested in as well. But when will that happen; that's anybody's guess. I'm looking forward to the new Doctor Who which may advance the Jack Harkness character further along from when we last saw him. But, deep breath, all is good. I have enjoyed Torchwood so much over the past few years. Thank you to this message board, to the actors, to Russell. It's all good. I just wanted to say this here in this post about the future of Torchwood.

More Torchwood - after this ? Joke !!
This was not drama, it was melodrama victorian special. Kill Kill Kill. Sensation Sensation Sensation. Rubbish Rubbish Rubbish.
Drama develops and involves and does not involve killing everything off - at least until the absolutely final final episode.

Curious Nature: Watching beautiful Buteos
Vail, CO Colorado
Soaring birds seem to be everywhere. This morning, as I drove through Red Canyon watching great clouds of fog lift from the valley, I watched a swarm as they floated on the rising thermals. Most of the birds I saw this morning were likely vultures, with their typical v-shaped dihedral. On most mornings, I assume that any raptors without this telltale vulture shape are red-tailed hawks, but this is only because I know these are the most common of the Colorado raptors. But every once in a while, I see something that doesn't look quite right, and I wonder if maybe I'm watching something entirely new and different.
The soaring birds are broken up into several main groupings, each relatively easily identifiable by different sizes, wing shapes, habitats and behaviors. The Buteos are one of the largest groups locally, including red-tailed hawks along with less commonly known species such as swainson's and ferruginous hawks. The Buteos are identifiable by their broad, rounded wings and robust body, as compared to the more pointed wings and slender bodies of the accipiters and the falcons. Individual species are much harder to differentiate due to the tremendous variation in plumage. Many species show light, dark and intermediate forms, and then juveniles also differ from the adults, which further complicates the issue.
Most of us identify the red-tailed hawks by their namesake, the rusty colored tail feathers. In truth, though, some morphs of this ubiquitous species don't even have a red tail! According to an old friend and avid birder, the real telltale sign that you've spotted a red-tailed hawk are the substantial black tips on the underside of its wings. When these patches are absent, I eagerly scan the bird, trying to memorize markings to look up when I return home. The problem, though, is when you're not sure what to look for, especially when you only catch a quick glimpse of the bird as it sails high above you.
Swainson's hawks vary tremendously in their colors and markings. Most color phases, though, share a dark "bib" on their upper chest, with a white throat patch. Swainson's hawks are only found locally in the summer months, preferring to spend the colder months in South America and returning to the northern climates to breed and feed. These hawks are typically hunters of the open plains, and you would be more likely to see one east of the Continental Divide, but they are seen locally, particularly above open meadows or sage scrublands, where they hunt for small mammals and insects.
The other Buteos commonly confused with the local red-tails are the ferruginous hawks. These are typically our largest Buteo, recognizable by their distinctive wing patterns. The lower portion of the wing is clean white, with a very tiny bit of dark at the tips. The wings are also slightly tapered and more pointed than those of the other Buteos. Like the Swainson's hawks, these are also typically birds of the grasslands, hunting small mammals from perches high up, or sometimes from the ground.
Looking skyward, I often hear myself say, "It's just another red-tail." The excitement of spotting and recognizing different species is sometimes all-consuming. But whatever the species, the hawks that frequent our valley shamelessly flaunt their gift of flight, teasing me as they sail effortlessly on the winds, occasionally making a beeline for some hapless little creature on the ground. Swainson's, ferruginous or red-tailed; these big birds inspire us daily with their freedom, wildness and beauty. As we watch them sail overhead, we can capture just a tiny bit of these feelings for ourselves, making our own lives richer and wilder.

Ino wrote:Poor Sepp. Ino was doing the same thing a week ago and had me scared to death after I searched the "gag" cough without vomiting and pacing (and he was also drooling a bit- which he also does when he is stressed, so wasnt sure if that was an actual symptom)- bloat (my big fear) came up so I decided to sleep on the futon mattress with him and hardly slept that night so I could watch over him. It didnt seem like nausea because he wanted to eat, so I gave him a little peanut butter and youghurt to try to see if I could help him clear whatever was bothering him. About 24 hours after it started, it ended. I think he had something in his throat (probably a wood chip because he is obsessed with finding and chewing sticks). Now, I started bringing a toy that he loves on our walk so if he grabs a stick, the toy is more valuable and he will drop the stick. I hope whatever it ends up being, they can clear it up fast and your boy feels better!
I'm glad Ino is okay!
I grind Sepps food (so, no bone splinters), I supervise him w/chew toys and big bones, and he doesn't chew sticks or things he shouldn't, he doesn't pull on the leash to the point of choking himself... right now kennel cough is really my best "guess".
I hate mysteries.

Many active investors will use technical analysis when conducting stock research. Technical analysis involves studying trends and trying to predict which trends will continue into the future. Many technical traders will rely on charts to help provide the information they desire. Some technicians will use one or two technical indicators while others will combine many different ones.

Once the individual investor has done all the fundamental homework and found a few stocks that they think are poised to be future winners, they may want to figure out when to best get into the market. Many investors will turn towards technical analysis to accomplish this. Technical analysis can help identify entry and exit points by studying price trends and movements over time. Some technical indicators are very complex and others are very simple. One goal of focusing on technical indicators is to help make confusing price information easier to interpret and understand. Many investors will find signals that they like to follow, but focusing on just one indicator may not provide the full picture of what is really going on. Many investors will combine technical indicators to help round out the spectrum. Although technical analysis can be a very useful tool for the investor, it is important to remember that stock prices are inherently unpredictable. Even the most seasoned investors may have to adjust their charts occasionally if trades are not working out as planned.

The first value is calculated by adding the dividend yield to the percentage of repurchased shares. The second value adds in the net debt repaid yield to the calculation. Shareholder yield has the ability to show how much money the firm is giving back to shareholders via a few different avenues. Companies may issue new shares and buy back their own shares. This may occur at the same time. Investors may also use shareholder yield to gauge a baseline rate of return.
Individual investors have a lot to study when dealing with the stock market. New investors may start out thinking that with enough capital, they can easily start securing substantial gains. While equity market investing can help individuals build wealth, it can also be highly risky. Market education may be an extremely important part of any investor's game plan. Knowing exactly where the money is invested and why it is invested there, may be a big help when reviewing portfolio performance down the line. Any investor who takes the reins and decides to make their own decisions should realize the importance of a well-rounded stock market education.

Played frequently by the Grateful Dead in the early 90s, nearly always as an encore with different band members taking each verse (note 1). Revived by The Dead in 2004, with Bob Weir and Warren Haynes sharing vocals.
I pulled in to Nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past deadNotes
I just need some place where I can lay my head
Hey mister can you tell me, where a man might find a bed
He just grinned and shook my hand, and no was all he said
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And ... you put the load right on me
I picked up my bag, I went looking for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the devil walking side by side
I said hey Carmen come on, let's go down town
She said I got to go, but my friend can stick around (note 2)
Go down Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say
It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting for the judgement day
Well Luke my friend what about young Anna Lee (note 3)
He said do me a favor, son, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee company
Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog
He said I will fix your rack if you take Jack my dog
I said wait a minute Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man
He said that's OK boy, won't you feed him when you can
Catch a cannonball now to take me down the line
My bag is sinking low, and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Fuzhou Open | 22 - 27 April 2014
Fuzhou, China, April 23, 2014 - Top seeded qualifiers Chantal Laboureur and Julia Sude of Germany brushed aside Becchara Palmer and Zina Stone from Australia 2-0 (21-17, 21-11) to progress into the women's Main Draw at the FIVB Beach Volleyball Fuzhou Open on Wednesday.
Palmer and Stone overcame compatriots Justine Mowen and Jordan Mowen 2-1 (21-18, 20-22, 15-10) in the morning to face Laboureur and Sude, who had a bye in the first round of the Qualification Tournament alongside five other seeded teams.
The teams matched each other stride for stride in a taut first set which witnessed the scores were tied several times, but Laboureur and Sude managed to take control and eventually prevailed. The Germans were never threatened in the second set, streaking into a 6-2 lead and then 17-9 before securing the victory on their first match point.
"We didn't know the young Australian players, so we had to see how they play at the beginning," said Sude. "It's the first tournament of the season, so we have to take time to get into the rhythm. We are very happy to be in the Main Draw now."
Sude, who won silver at the Durban Open last year in partnership with Laboureur, didn't conceal their ambitions for a medal in Fuzhou.
"Sure, we want to make the podium again, but it's difficult this time, as all the teams here are very good," said the 26-year-old Sude.
Juliana Felisberta and Maria Antonelli from Brazil also made it through to the Main Draw after nailing two quick wins in the Qualification Tournament.
The newly formed Brazilian pair crushed New Zealand's Julia Tiley and Shaunna Polley 2-0 (21-11, 21-10) in just 28 minutes, before sweeping past Allison Daley and Kendra Vanzwieten from the USA 2-0 (21-10, 21-9) in the afternoon.
"It's the first time we played together in the World Tour events, so we are just focusing on our own game," said Antonelli. "We had four good sets in two games today. I'm very proud of my team. I hope that we can get better and better in this tournament."
Other teams making it to the 32-team women's Main Draw, which is scheduled to start on Thursday, are Miller Elwin/Henriette Iatika (Vanuatu), Takemi Nishibori/Sayaka Mizoe (Japan), Katharina Schutzenhofer/Lena Plesiutschnig (Austria), Kinga Kolosinska/Monika Brzostek (Poland), Martha Revuelta/Candelas Bibiana (Mexico) and Tanja Goricanec/Tanja Huberli (Switzerland).
Thirty-two teams will play a single round-robin in eight groups with top three finishers from each group to advance to the 24-team knockout stage.
The tournament is the first of 11 Open events on the 2014 FIVB calendar, which also includes 10 Grand Slam events and a new FIVB Grand Slam Final.

text:
The prolific and talented author and contributor to The New York Times, Michael Pollan, is at the center of a self-initiated movement to redo our nation's food system. The movement is built on a platform of opposing biotechnology and conventional agriculture — especially animal ag — while promoting the slow food movement, local production and organics.
He is a frequent critic of corn production and puts it at the epicenter of his axis of food evil.
Pollan is very persuasive in written and oral presentation and has embarked on an active and aggressive speaking tour and campaign to sell his books (Omnivore's Dilemma; The Botany of Desire, etc); help promote films that espouse his philosophy (King Corn, Food, Inc.) and lead a movement to revamp the U.S. food system.
Pollan's arguments have resonance and appeal with consumers and the general public and they have garnered growing support among the urban elite and more extreme environmental groups. His books and articles are increasingly well read and widely quoted by the "influential" class in our society.
At another end of the spectrum is Norman Borlaug, an American agronomist, humanitarian, Nobel laureate and the father of the Green Revolution. Borlaug is one of only five people in history to have won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal.
According to language contained in the official Congressional Action that awarded the Gold Medal to him, "Borlaug has saved more lives than any other person who has ever lived, and likely has saved more lives in the Islamic world than any other human being in history."
Borlaug is 95 years old. He is still a distinguished professor of agronomy at Texas A&M University. He continues to speak out in support of modern agriculture and the need for advancements to address world hunger. He is the founder of the World Food Prize, an international award recognizing the achievements of individuals who have advanced human development by improving the quality, quantity or availability of food in the world.
Last month, Borlaug wrote an editorial that was published in the Wall Street Journal, titled Farmers Can Feed the World, where he argued that "better seeds and fertilizers, not romantic myths, will let them do it."
In what I took as a direct reference to the type of movement that Pollan so persuasively espouses, Borlaug said the following: "Even here at home, some elements of popular culture romanticize older, inefficient production methods and shun fertilizers and pesticides, arguing that the U.S. should revert to producing only local organic food. People should be able to purchase organic food if they have the will and financial means to do so, but not at the expense of the world's hungry — 25,000 of whom die each day from malnutrition."
Pollan is a very talented and well respected author and is very driven in his beliefs. Much of what he says is true or based on fact, but his artful mixing of fact and fiction lead to very serious and erroneous as well as naïve and dangerous conclusions and recommendations.
I am reminded of the language that Rick Berman, executive director of the Center for Consumer Freedom, used several years ago when commenting on a movement very similar to that of Pollan's: "Sometimes self-indulgent utopianism is harmless. Not here. As a wise man observed, 'The boy throws the stone in jest; the frog dies in earnest.' The consequences of this ideological lark, exploited by old-fashioned greed, could be more than dead frogs."
Pollan's movement needs to be aggressively countered with fact and reality to our general consumer population who do not know any better and have been seduced by his skill with words. For, as Borlaug says, now is not the time to be limiting the tools available to our farmers and ranchers, as we need a second green revolution.
As he says, "given the right tools, farmers have shown an uncanny ability to feed themselves and others, and to ignite the economic engine that will reverse the cycle of chronic poverty."
U.S. farmers have an outstanding track record of doing just this and will continue as long as we don't allow ourselves to become apologists for or victims of "Pollan Drift." Farmers and ranchers — speak out! If you have not read it, please read The Omnivore's Delusion by Missouri farmer Blake Hurst.

Purpose of the Workshop: This workshop was held to discuss a National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) proposal to initiate a new, highly interactive public research consortium to carry out a pilot project for testing and comparing existing and new methods to identify functional sequences in DNA.The premise for the workshop was as follows:
A number of computational and experimental ¿wet bench¿ approaches have been developed to identify and characterize the encoded functional elements in genomic DNA sequence. However, no single strategy is yet able to identify all of the coding sequences in the human genome, and different approaches actually identify different, only partially overlapping sets of coding sequences. As for other sequence-based functional elements (e.g., regulatory regions, non-coding RNA sequences, elements involved in chromosome structure and function), few if any comprehensive approaches have even been devised for testing.
NHGRI¿s intent in proposing the new consortium is to encourage discussion and comparison of existing computational and experimental approaches and to stimulate the development of new ones. The institute hopes, that by working together in a highly cooperative effort to rigorously analyze a defined portion of the human genome sequence, investigators with diverse backgrounds and expertise will be able to evaluate the relative merits of each of a diverse set of techniques, technologies and strategies in identifying all the functional elements in human genomic sequence, to identify gaps in our ability to annotate genomic sequence, and to consider the abilities of such methods to be scaled up for analyzing the entire human genome.
The consortium, as envisioned, would be open to all academic, government and private sector scientists interested in participating in an open process to facilitate the comprehensive interpretation of the human genome sequence. By initially concentrating on a limited region of the human genome, the institute hopes that all of those who have experience and insight into the problem will be willing to participate, whether or not their approaches are proprietary or have already generated proprietary data. In this way, the activities of the consortium could be influential in helping to guide the planning for a complete public elucidation of functional elements within the entire human genome.
Summary of Workshop Discussion: The workshop began with a series of presentations on computational annotation and experimental approaches to biological confirmation of functional elements in the genomes of both model organisms and the human. Subsequent to those discussions, NHGRI outlined its proposal for a pilot project to exhaustively determine all functional elements in a small fraction (~1 percent) of the human genome, which the workshop participants strongly endorsed. The workshop participants then discussed a number of issues that need to be addressed in order to implement the proposed pilot project. The following outlines the highlights of these discussions.

Mayor's Office
Lincoln has been named a "Tree City USA" by the National Arbor Day Foundation for the 35th consecutive year. Lincoln also received a Tree City Growth Award for continuing demonstrated commitment and progress in managing more than 130,000 public trees along streets and in parks.
"Trees improve the quality of life for everyone by providing benefits to our environment, our economy and our health," said Lynn Johnson, Director of the City Parks and Recreation Department, which manages the City's public trees. "Studies indicated that public trees provide up to $4 of benefits for every $1 invested in tree care and management. We are proud to again have our City's strong commitment to trees recognized by the Arbor Day Foundation."
To qualify for the Tree City USA designation, a community must meet four standards established by the Arbor Day Foundation and the National Association of State Foresters:
This spring, the City began the new 2 For Trees voluntary donation program, which allows customers of the Lincoln Water System (LWS) to add $2 to their bill payments to support of public trees along streets, in parks, along trails and in golf courses. About $3,800 was donated by LWS customers in the first month of the program.
For more information on the City Forestry Division, visit parks.lincoln.ne.gov or call 402-441-7035. The website includes information on requesting a no-cost permit to plant street trees. The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the nonprofit Arbor Day Foundation in cooperation with the national Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service.

Cloud Imperium Games Break Crowdfunding Record
'Star Citizen' space game raises over $5 million.
When Wing Commander III debuted in 1994, it was groundbreaking in the way it mixed the branched storyline concept with movie-like action scenes. Mark Hamill, John Rhys-Davies, Malcolm McDowell, and Ginger Lynn Allen were notable actors starring in this epic game.
Origin Systems, later purchased by Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:EA), was the distributor of the series and Wing Commander became one of its two most recognized titles (the Ultima series being the other one).
Chris Roberts moved on to found Digital Anvil, which was purchased by Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) in 2000. The shop created the successful Starlancer, Freelancer, and Brute Force games before being disassembled and absorbed by the Redmond giant.
The space-game genre has been mostly abandoned since that time. Investors today are not much interested in storyline games. The big production houses like EA, Microsoft, Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ:TTWO), and Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI) are mostly interested in making sequels or transitioning into social games. VCs certainly look crosswise at any proposal to fund something other than the next Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPad app or Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) game.
On September 10, word started leaking out that Mr. Roberts had a new project. Visitors to his website were challenged with a question (correct answer, of course, was '42') and allowed a sneak peek into what he was planning – a brand new, epic space universe.
On October 10, Mr. Roberts debuted Star Citizen and the companion Squadron 42. Simultaneously, his company (Cloud Imperium Gaming) launched a crowdfunding effort. The response crashed their servers. After also accepting pledges on Kickstarter to take pressure off their website, interest in the game exploded.
This past Saturday, Star Citizen broke the prior crowdfunded game record of $4.17 million previously held by Obsidian Entertainment's Project Eternity. On Sunday afternoon, the total raised for Star Citizen crested $5 million on its way to a likely conclusion at 2:00 p.m. ET between $5.5 and $6.0 million.
If you read Buzz & Banter (subscription required), you've seen me write about Star Citizen before in the context of one of the key features of the game – it will be available only on PCs and will require significant hardware to run. Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE:AMD) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) will likely benefit as the game's engine will give graphics cards a real workout. Investors in those names shouldn't look for immediate relief, however. The alpha of Star Citizen is a year out and the full release won't happen for 24-30 months.
That long timeline makes it even more; remarkable nearly 80,000 people have pledged well over $5 million for a game that Cloud Imperium won't finish for two to three years.
While there is no denying the affection 30- and 40-somethings like me have for Chris Roberts because of our fond memories of playing the Wing Commander series, traditional publishing houses perhaps should watch over their shoulders. Between Project Eternity and Star Citizen, independent shops have raised $10 million direct from gamers in the last eight weeks. Of note to the ongoing debate about console gaming, neither game will appear on consoles.
The Star Citizen pledge drive continues until 2:00 p.m. EST today. The core Cloud Imperium Games team started a 24-hour "telethon" Sunday on Ustream, which should still be going when you read this.
Position: Yes, of course I pledged! (None in the companies mentioned.)

Plaso (plaso langar að safna öllu) is the Python based back-end engine used by tools such as log2timeline for automatic creation of a super timelines. The goal of log2timeline (and thus plaso) is to provide a single tool that can parse various log files and forensic artifacts from computers and related systems, such as network equipment to produce a single correlated timeline. This timeline can then be easily analysed by forensic investigators/analysts, speeding up investigations by correlating the vast amount of information found on an average computer system. Plaso is intended to be applied for creating super timelines but also supports creating targeted timelines.
The Plaso project site also provides 4n6time, formerly "l2t_Review", which is a cross-platform forensic tool for timeline creation and review by David Nides.

'True Blood' Season 6 Photos: Preview the Bloody Sexy Season in HBO's Massive Gallery!
Sweet mother of 'True Blood,' it's happening! As if reporters didn't have enough on their plates with the ongoing renewal announcements, HBO has unveiled a massive new gallery of 'True Blood' season 6 photos that promise a bloody (and sexy!) vampire-human war ahead. Not only do we glimpse a host of new characters, but also our returning favorites in the flesh! Get in here to check out the full 'True Blood' season 6 gallery before we burst!
'True Blood's sixth season won't drop until June 16, but that hasn't stopped HBO from giving us a major new taste of the season with a giant photo gallery of the new and returning players. Among the returning favorites, you'll catch your first look at Sookie's new Fae love interest and 'Eastenders' star Robert Kazinsky, along with Rutger Hauer as mysterious vampire Macklyn, 'Rubicon's' Arliss Howard as Louisiana Governor Truman Burrell, and several others.
Along with the showrunner swap changing from Mark Hudis to Bryan Buckner, season 5 guest star and former 'Last Resort' star Robert Patrick has been upgraded to series regular, while 'True Blood' season 6 also features the return of Anna Camp's Sarah Newlin, Luke Grimes as the "Jim Morrison of vampires," and 'House's' Karolina Wydra.
Premiering June 26, True Blood' season 6 will take place over 10 episodes, down from the usual 12, largely to accommodate series star Anna Paquin's pregnancy with co-star Stephen Moyer.
Feast your fangs on the fantastic 'True Blood' season 6 gallery below, and give us your fang-banging predictions for the new season in the comments!
