Few products create more passion from consumers than chainsaws. Brand logos are tattooed on arms and their merits are heavily debated by "lumberjacks" all over the world. In order to assist consumers with their buying decision, we have produced buying guides, safety guides, videos and more for popular chainsaw brands such as Husqvarna, Jonsered and RedMax. Remember, when it comes to operating a saw, always wear proper safety gear, like chainsaw chaps, ear and eye protection, and steel toe shoes.

Is it ever fair game for a boss to hit on a staffer? | OPINION
The underbelly of the #MeToo movement has thrown into sharp relief just how often women are sexually harassed at work. Currently one in every five Australian women experience the discomfort of a fellow employee – or boss – making unwanted advances in a professional setting.
In the U.S., sexual relationships between Capitol Hill lawmakers and their staffers were explicitly banned by the House of Representatives last Tuesday for the same reason. The bipartisan bill was a direct response to multiple recent sexual misconduct cases including Minnesota senator Al Franken and Michigan congressman John Conyers, who have both resigned amid allegations of workplace sexual harassment.
Whenever allegations of workplace sexual misconduct come to light, perpetrators always say the same sort of thing – they believed their behaviour was in good faith or 'just a bit of fun'. Within these excuses lies the idea that the workplace is just another social situation – a man is free to flirt with a woman, ask a woman out and even make a move on a woman in the office just like they would in a bar.
'Meetcutes' in Hollywood flicks have taught men that every situation – the office, the laundromat, at a funeral – lies the opportunity for the beginning of a romantic story. In addition to this, a romance side dish is often tacked onto a thriller, drama or almost any other genre to ensure wide cinematic appeal, implying that around every single corner of your life is an opportunity just waiting to be hit on.
But in the real world, it's almost always a bad idea to hit on a woman at work. As a man, how do you know if your advances are warranted? At the best of times, like a social event, there are cues; lingering stares, nervous smiles, a preoccupation with your conversation. At the worst of times, like at work, recognising these cues goes from tricky to completely distorted; even worse when there's a layer of hierarchy.
A boss controls a subordinate's source of income, the stability of their role and even influences their career trajectory. How does a woman confidently reject the advances of her male boss in that situation and, more to the point – should she even have to?
I say 'male boss' because overwhelmingly leadership roles in Australia are dominated by men – around 95 percent of chair positions, 77.4 percent of directorships, 84.6 percent of CEOs and 73.6 percent of key management personnel are male.
Female staff routinely go along with behaviour like unwanted touching, crude jokes and suggestive conversation that makes them uncomfortable but if flagged can cause awkwardness at best and a job dissolution at worst. But women shouldn't have to weigh up between indulging a flirty boss and risking their livelihood.
There is no suggestion of sexual harassment in the case of embattled deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce – he now is living with his new partner Vicki Campion and expecting a child in mid-April. But with workplace sexual harassment statistics at one in five women, this story could have easily gone the other way. That is exactly the sort of situation where the supposed 'grey area' of sexual harassment that so many men so loudly lament takes place.
It's true that we can't help who we fall for, and of course there are exceptions to the rule – Joyce and Campion are one – but male leaders throughout the country need to understand their female staff are not fair game for their advances. True, there's an incredibly slim chance you end up with a happy ending, or you could end up shamefacedly resigning amid sexual harassment allegations. So – why gamble?

NHL Game Nigh: 4-2-13 Panthers at Lightning
I still hate shootouts.
Mathieu Garon allowed 2 goals on 25 shots and was 1 for 2 in the shootout for the SOL. He got outdueled badly by Markstrom, and Lightning fans have to be cursing the day Lindback got his high ankle sprain.
First Period
08:36 FLA Kopecky (13), (Brennan, Fleischmann)
Second Period
16:41 FLA Rallo (1), (Brennan, Kuba)(PP)
Third Period
05:38 TB Pyatt (7), (Purcell, Carle)
10:32 Killorn (6), (Hedman, Purcell)
FLA- Mueller
The Lightning completely dominated large swaths of this game and deserved better than to only get 1 point out of it. It's damned hard to put together a winning streak when you're surrendering a soft goal or two every game, and the Lightning desperately need a winning streak.
Mike Angelidis was 43% on draws in 7:22.
Alex Killorn had a goal and was +1 with 4 shots in 23:20. He's so money.
Andrej Sustr was +1 with 1 shot in 8:19. Officially 2 giveaways. That'll get your ice time down in single digit minutes as a rookie.
Tyler Johnson had 1 shot, 1 hit, and was 58% on draws in 16:53.
Ondrej Palat was +1 with 2 shots and 3 hits in 11:39.
Radko Gudas had a fight, 2 shots, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 11:55.

EduNational prepares Canadian and international
students for successful career-oriented and international education
decisions. EduNational supports visiting
international students during their studies, and helps students and
their families select the right study program, and manage a student's
education progress.
Career Analytics Assessments measure abilities: arithmetic; vocabulary;
three-dimensional space; computation ability; name comparison; object matching;
interests; personality; learning style; work values, and work preferences.
These assessments have been tested for validity, which ensures a test is measuring
what it is supposed to measure, is reliable, and measures consistency. Validity
tests were done with more than 20,000 adults and high school students.
Career Planning Coaches are experts who guide and support
students to make decisions about their career path. Once assessments
are complete, EduNational matches students with a Coach, chosen for
background, sector-specific experience and knowledge. Coaches have
cultural and linguistic ability, to involve the parent and student.
Coaches schedule sessions with students through telephone, the web,
Skype or, if practical, face-to face.
Success Logics is like basic training for university and college. It is the
type of post-secondary preparation that the parents of today's kids could not even
dream of when they went to school. It didn't exist back then. The ideal
time to take Success Logics is between grade 11 and grade 12.
Potential Max! is a precursor to Career Analytics. It is
designed to give kids from grades 7-9 an early start in middle school, or in
junior high school. Potential Max! identifies individual
learning styles, personal interests and assists students in mapping their
academic abilities at just the right moment in their lives.
Next to a home, an education for their children is now the most
valuable purchase families make. Adding up the costs of a year lost
in a program change, it is roughly equal to buying a new, mid-range
car and driving it over a cliff. EduNational helps parents and
students make better post-secondary choices.

5 things to know about the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk
We recently had the chance to check out the all-new 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. And as the name implies, this is a track-ready vehicle.
Weird when you consider that this is also a 5,500-pound SUV.
We have already posted a full-length first-look review of the Trackhawk, but in case it's TL:DR (too long; didn't read), here are the 5 most important things you need to know about it.
Powered by the Hellcat engine
OK, it's not exactly the same engine that's in the Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats. But it's close. As Joe Kubina, the chief engineer for Trackhawk, said, you have to make some modifications to make it fit the different space proportions under the hood.
But Trackhawk is powered by a 6.2-liter V-8, and you've still got 707 horsepower and 645 pound-feet of torque. Also included: sport and track driving modes as well as standard Launch Control.
Oh, and an iconic red key fob.
Impressive performance stats
Equipped with Brembo brakes, a 1-inch lower ride height, quad-tip exhaust and a redesigned front fascia that optimizes airflow and cooling, the Trackhawk truly is bred for a racetrack.
The Trackhawk has a top speed of 180 mph and boasts a 0-to-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds. It can do a quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds.
Need some perspective? That's faster than pretty much every sports sedan, including a BMW M5 and a Cadillac ATS-V.
With that much power, you might also be happy to know that the 60-to-0 mph braking performance is 114 feet.
Lots of lux-level amenities
The Trackhawk comes standard with sporty leather seats, carbon fiber dash inserts, a 5-mode Selec-Track system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, navigation, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning and crash mitigation.
Available options include a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, Blu-ray entertainment system, leather-wrapped interior, high-performance audio and a trailer tow package.
Priced at $86,995
Cough. Yeah. You read that right. Base price for the Trackhawk, including destination, pushes past the $85K mark. And if you want to get any of those aforementioned options, you'll head toward $100K fast.
Our test vehicle during the press launch came equipped with all of the options and had an as-tested price of $99,965.
The regular 4X2 Grand Cherokee has a base price of $31,490.
Available now
The Trackhawk hit dealers in the fourth quarter of 2017. While Midwestern or Northeastern buyers might be bummed that they'll have to wait until spring to test the vehicle's track prowess, the good news is that one of the 5 drive modes on the Selec-Track system is "Snow."

Strong commitment, thirst for justice, indignation, powerful words from my favorite source of news…
WE WILL BE their witness.
We will retrace their steps, those early hours before their shocking extinction, when they, at least 27 journalists, set out for a day's work. We will piece together the bloody shards of the crime—the point in the highway in Ampatuan country where the convoy in which they were part was waylaid, the guns that snuffed them out, the grassy field where they, along with the rest of the unfortunate lot, breathed their last.
We will approximate the horror, mindful of the limitations of words but galvanized by the same calling that ultimately led them to their doom.
We will keep asking the terrible question: How could this have happened?
The mass murder in Maguindanáo on Nov. 23 has come to define our generation as journalists. Nowhere in our history as an endangered breed has a similar occurrence approached such a degree of enormity or the body count been so outrageously high. Yet a more significant aspect casts a large shadow on the crime—the climate of impunity that served as fertile ground for it to happen. Let not the staggering dimensions of the killings take the edge off that fact.
We will be their witness. Removed as we are from the arena of their toil, we will acknowledge the peculiar nature of their daily terrain as shaped by the unbridled, unabashed power that holds sway. We will presume that getting into the vehicles that made up the convoy heading to the Commission on Elections office in Shariff Aguak, thence to witness and record a process that would have made official Esmael Mangudadatu's gubernatorial candidacy, they pushed trepidation aside and sought comfort in the idea, hitherto unshakable, that journalism is a power unto itself, sufficient to stand up to fear itself.
That they are dead now is heart-wrenching, and we will mourn their—our—having been proven wrong. Yet, despite having been crudely disabused of the idea that reporting on an event, for the benefit of the public that we are sworn to inform, is no longer a guarantee of even safe passage, we will persevere. For too long have we lived gripped by a particular tension as Gordimer had defined it: that of being participant and recorder of events—a necessary burden of writers and, by extension, journalists. And we will continue to record our times and the evil that men and women do even as we rail at oppression and injustice.
We will not lose sight of the fact that as many as 68 journalists, not counting the 27 murdered in Maguindanáo, have been killed since 2001, when Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo took power. (Once upon a time, her husband, addressing a group of journalists in Negros, said no journalist on the island had been killed because "journalists here are responsible reporters.") To Camus' requirements of "courage in one's life and talent in one's work" we will add strength and commitment.
There will be justice for the 27 journalists (and the women and other civilians) who perished in the badlands of Maguindanáo.
We will be their witness. Though we may be under the gun, we will endure.

Al Merrick has shaped surfboards for some of the best surfers in the world and is considered by many the best shaper in the world.
But he holds another title that is more important than any other: grandpa.
Merrick is the grandfather of Daisy Love Merrick, and this Saturday the surfing world will come out to show their support for her.
Daisy, who is 8, is facing cancer for the third time. Friends of the Merrick family, led by Christian Surfers U.S., have helped organize Paddle for Daisy, an international event to help raise money for Daisy's treatment.
Daisy is facing chemotherapy and possibly a stem-cell transplant as part of her therapy in the U.S. and Israel that is both traditional and progressive. The family is looking at medical bills in the area of half a million dollars not covered by insurance.
At 9 a.m. Saturday on the south side of the Huntington Beach Pier, a "paddle-a-thon" will be held to raise awareness and support for Daisy. The Huntington Beach location is just one of dozens that will be taking place simultaneously around the world.
The other locations locally include the Newport Beach Pier, the San Clemente Pier and the Oceanside Pier. In all, there will be 13 California locations, three Hawaii locations, and dozens of others from the Northeast U.S. down to Florida and the Gulf Coast. There even is a location on a lake in Minnesota, and another location in Bali.
In Huntington, the plan is to either paddle around the pier, or to the end of the pier and back, depending on the surf conditions. There will also be a prayer for Daisy and breakfast served to those who participate in the paddle.
"It's bringing together people from all walks of life who have a common thread that runs through them," said Brian Edwards of Christian Surfers Huntington Beach. "And that thread is the sport of surfing, or shaping boards, or anything in the surf industry. Whatever the common thread is, it might be cancer itself, people who have struggled with it or are facing it right now."
For Daisy, the struggle began three years ago, when she had just started kindergarten. She fell down at school on the playground, which wasn't so unusual. But what was strange was that she told school staff that she needed to go to the hospital.
Daisy's parents took her to the hospital, where they looked for internal injuries. Instead, they found a tumor the size of a Nerf football in her abdominal cavity. She had a kidney removed during the surgery and then underwent extensive chemo and radiation treatments and eventually was deemed cancer free.
Not long after a trip to Hawaii with her family to celebrate, Daisy started complaining of stomach pain and it was soon discovered the cancer had returned. She faced two more surgeries to remove a tumor the size of a grapefruit.
After the treatments, Daisy resumed the life of a normal 7-year-old, but during a routine scan, cancer was found for the third time. In April, she had surgery to remove a tumor the size of a golf ball, and her spleen was also removed.
Daisy is now facing more treatments, which is why she and Al are in Israel now. And the surfing world has come together to help. In fact, it was a story in Transworld Surf Magazine that helped spread the word of Daisy's plight.
"From that, everybody in the surf industry had gotten word of it," Edwards said. "In that first hour it was up on the (Transworld) website, somebody, I'm not even sure who it was — I think a tile company in Orange County — donated $80,000."
The idea of the paddle out first came from Dean Plumlee, the national director of Christian Surfers U.S. Since Christian Surfers is a registered 501(c)(3), all donations could be tax-deductible.
"The vision to do this was launched by Dean Plumlee," Edwards said. "But that's all we wanted. We didn't want to brand Christian Surfers, we didn't want it to be a Christian Surfers thing. We just wanted to help people to do their own thing. If somebody wanted to bring groups out and call it the Hurley Paddle, fine. The goal was to raise funds for Daisy."

Jarius Wright will be getting another chance to show what he can do.
With Vikings receiver Percy Harvin already listed as doubtful due to an ankle he sprained 20 days ago in Seattle, the Vikings officially have downgraded Harvin to out. He won't make the trip to Chicago.
That gives Wright, a fourth-round draft pick from Arkansas, another opportunity to replace Harvin in the slot. Two weeks ago against the Lions, Wright caught a long pass, a touchdown pass, and another reception in a win over the Lions.
It also means that the Vikings likely will lean even more heavily on running back Adrian Peterson, who is having one of the best seasons of his career despite tearing an ACL exactly 11 months ago today.

Upshur County Pct. 1 Justice of the Peace Laura Lee Norred said Friday she has changed her office hours because the new county budget eliminated one of her two office clerks.
The office at the county "Rock Building" in Gilmer will no longer be open until 6 p.m. Mondays and 4 p.m. Fridays. Instead, hours will be 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m. to noon Fridays, Judge Norred said, but she and her clerk will take no lunch hour.
"I hate that we're having to close early now on Mondays. . . A lot of people came in after 5 o'clock," she said. But "it's hard for us to be open till 6 now" because, if either she or her clerk have to leave, that leaves only one person in the office and "we have no security—none," she said.
At the Upshur County Commissioners Court's Sept. 28 meeting, Judge Norred told the court she received a letter from County Treasurer Myra Harris telling her to decide which of her two employees to lay off.
The judge told commissioners her office does "a lot," and that it handles the most traffic tickets of any of the county's four Justice of the Peace offices. She said she was unsure she could bring in as much revenue if she lost an employee.
County Judge Dean Fowler said that the cut was part of the county proposed budget he sent to her.
Judge Norred responded that if she lost an employee, whoever she kept would "have a lot of comp time."
Judge Norred told The Mirror on Friday that the proposed budget Fowler sent her did not "reflect" that she would lose a clerk.
She added that although her office brought in $139,000 more last fiscal year than Pct. 2 Justice of the Peace Lyle Potter's office, the Pct. 2 office retained both its clerks in the new budget.

European Commission
Brussels, 17 October 2012
Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC)
What are biofuels?
Biofuels are liquid or gaseous transport fuels made from biomass. The most important biofuels today are bioethanol (made from sugar and cereal crops) used to replace petrol, and biodiesel (made mainly from vegetable oils) used to replace diesel.
There are two distinctive categories of biofuels:
Conventional (first generation) biofuels:
First generation or conventionally produced biofuels are biofuels produced from food crops, such as sugar, starch and vegetable oils. They are produced from land using feedstock which can also be used for food and feed.
Advanced (second and third generation) biofuels:
Second and third generation or advanced biofuels are produced from feedstock that do not compete directly with food and feed crops, such as wastes and agricultural residues (i.e. wheat straw, municipal waste), non-food crops (i.e. miscanthus and short rotation coppice) and algae.
Total biofuel consumption in the EU represented about 4,7% of transport fuel consumption in 2010, mainly first generation biofuels. Biofuel consumption differs significantly across Member States.
What are bioliquids?
Bioliquids are liquid fuels made from biomass used for energy purposes other than transport. Bioliquids are normally made from vegetable oils. They are only used in some Member States and their consumption levels in the EU are low.
Why do we need biofuels?
We need sustainable biofuels to reach our 2020 targets for the use of renewable energy, fight climate change and to replace fossil fuels in the transport sector. Sustainable biofuels are the main alternative to petrol and diesel used in transport as they are low carbon fuels easily deployable on existing transport infrastructure. This is important as the transport sector produces around 20% of the greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union and emissions are expected to grow in the medium term due to increasing demand.
What is indirect land use change (ILUC)?
When biofuels are produced on existing agricultural land, the demand for food and feed crops remains, and may lead to someone producing more food and feed somewhere else. This can imply land use change (by changing e.g. forest into agricultural land), which implies that a substantial amount of CO2 emissions are released into the atmosphere. What is new in the legislative proposal?
The new rules will make biofuels used in the EU more sustainable and will help us to reduce further Greenhouse Gas emissions and encourage greater market penetration of advanced biofuels.
This will be achieved in particular by:
What are ILUC factors?
The proposal sets out indirect land-use change (ILUC) factors for different crop groups. These factors represent the estimated land use change emissions that are taking place globally as a result of the crops being used for biofuels in the EU, rather than for food and feed.
Simply put, all biofuels that use land will get an ILUC factor. Feedstock that do not require agricultural land for their production (i.e. waste, residues, algae) and those that cause direct land use change (i.e. in which case operators need to calculate their actual emissions) are exempt from the factors.
Under the new rules, the estimated emissions from indirect land use change (ILUC factors), are to be included in Member States' and fuel suppliers' reporting of greenhouse gas savings under the Renewable Energy Directive and in the Fuel Quality Directive respectively.
Why are these changes necessary?
The scientific evidence on indirect land use change impacts of biofuels is indicating that some types of biofuels, such as those from waste and residues, are much better than others in terms of their climate impact. These biofuels, which are typically more expensive to produce, also do not pose problems related to increased food prices as they do not come from food crops. But unless action is taken now, they are not likely to be available in any significant amounts in 2020.
Therefore, the Commission is proposing legislation that will enhance the incentives for the best performing biofuels, and thereby improve the greenhouse gas savings of the overall biofuel mix used in the EU by 2020 compared to fossil fuels, and reduce their impact on the potential increase in food prices.
Does that mean that EU has radically changed its policy in this field?
No. This is not a radical change of policy.
The Directives on renewable energy and fuel quality asked the Commission to investigate the impact of ILUC, and propose ways to minimise it if necessary. The best available science indicates that ILUC is an issue that needs to be tackled and the current proposal does exactly that. The proposed changes are needed to ensure that the conditions Member States agreed on when adopting the legislation and notably the 10% renewable energy in transport target, i.e. that biofuels are sustainable and a significant amount of advanced biofuels are available up to 2020, are met.
What will happen to first generation biofuels? Will they be phased out?
The Commission is of the view that all biofuels made from food crops and which do not lead to substantial greenhouse gas savings (when emissions from indirect land-use change are included) should not be subsidised in the period after 2020. In the interim period, the proposal aims at stabilising the consumption of first generation biofuels.
Will there be any changes for Member States?
For the fulfilment of the 10% renewable energy target, the Member States can only count 5% biofuels from food crops. The rest needs to come notably from advanced biofuels, like the ones made from wastes or agricultural residues such as straw, but also from the use of renewable electricity in road and rail transport.
Will there be any changes to the introduction of E10 in Member States?
E10 means blending petrol with up to 10% (in volume) of ethanol and is a means to achieve the 2020 targets, which remain unchanged. Ethanol can not only be produced from food crops, but also from residues. Furthermore, the best available scientific evidence on ILUC indicates that ethanol offers significant greenhouse gas savings, also when ILUC emissions are included and that the use of E10 does not contribute to dramatic increases of food prices. E10 should therefore be introduced equally across the EU without delay.
Will the 5% limitation in the amount of first generation biofuels that can be counted towards the targets of the EU legislation put a limit on the production of first generation biofuels?
No. The production and consumption of first generation biofuels can be higher than 5% in a given Member State, but the excess of 5% will not count towards the Member States' renewable energy targets.
Can growing use of biofuels have a negative impact on the availability and prices of food and feed in the world?
All increased use of land increases the competition for the resources that we get from our land areas. This holds for crops used for biofuels, cotton used for clothes, coffee, maize used for feeding animals for meat production and palm oil used for cosmetics.
Under the new rules, the growth in biofuels in the EU should come from feedstock that are not in competition with food crops, thus minimising these impacts.
How much arable land is used for growing the feedstock for biofuels? In the EU? In the world?
The globe has ca 13 200 Mha of land of which about 1600 Mha is used for growing various crops. Less than 3% of global cropland is used to produce biofuels. In the EU, we use around 2% of our agricultural land for biofuels.
Where are the biofuels consumed in the EU being produced?
In 2010, 83% of the biofuels consumed in the EU were produced in the EU, part of which is produced from imported feedstock. The main countries exporting biodiesel to the EU were Argentina, Brazil and USA for soy biodiesel and Indonesia and Malaysia for palm oil. For bioethanol, the main exporting countries were Brazil for sugarcane bioethanol and the USA for maize bioethanol.
Do the new criteria apply also to imported biofuels?
Yes, all the rules for greenhouse gas reporting and sustainability criteria for biofuels apply equally to biofuels produced in the EU Member States and third countries. There is therefore no discrimination.
When will the new rules take effect?
The new rules will take effect after the European Parliament and the Council will have adopted the proposal in a co-decision procedure. Member States then have to transpose the provisions into national law within one year.

Republican politics: My guy's good, your guy's bad?
Re: "Top Republicans say they stand by N.J. Gov. Chris Christie," and "Paul Ryan: Immigration bill unlikely this year," Feb. 3 news story.
Top Republicans are standing by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, denigrating an investigation into his personal knowledge of and/or part in the so-called Bridgegate scandal. They appear to be assuming that the governor is blameless in this incident, based on his denials of wrongdoing.
Meanwhile, legislative Republicans, namely Paul Ryan, Eric Cantor and Marco Rubio, all state that they distrust President Obama and doubt passage of immigration reform based on their belief that the administration wouldn't enforce any new laws anyway.
With this mindset that our guy is always right and your guy is always wrong, is there any doubt as to why Congress is failing the American people?

Has Gov. Malloy built a union bridge too far?
'I am your servant!"
So proclaimed Gov. Dannel P. Malloy at a recent gathering of members of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees union. Malloy bragged "We have more workers organized in the State of Connecticut because we changed the laws to make it happen�"
Well, Malloy did more than change laws, he issued executive orders under which the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) organized about 11,000 new private sector members.
You might ask why a public official is organizing private sector labor. You'd be asking precisely the right question.
Nevertheless, Malloy did exactly that via two executive orders issued in September 2011, one for in-home health aides (so-called personal care aides or PCAs) and one for in-home family child care providers (FCCPs).
Surprised? It gets stranger still.
None of these in-home workers are state employees, yet the two new SEIU unions negotiate their pay, benefits and work rules with state government officials - not their actual employers.
PCAs are hired by and work for elderly and disabled citizens, who pay them primarily with government health plan reimbursement monies. For that matter, FCCPs are not even employees; they are small-business owners, whose customers are low-income parents who pay for child care with welfare subsidy vouchers issued by the state under its Care4Kids program. You might wonder how it has come to pass that business owners are being unionized. You'd be right to wonder.
Here's another bizarre twist. Low-income FCCPs, who care for their own young children along with those of others, receive the Care4Kids vouchers for doing so. So, while they may qualify for these welfare subsidies, now they are receiving them under a union contract, which would seem to constitute the unionization of welfare recipients. Surely, we have entered the theater of the absurd - ushered in by our Impresario-in-Chief Dannel P. Malloy.
Conventional labor unions bargain with their members' employers. Not these peculiar new unions. This peculiarity has drawn the attention of the Supreme Court in a case - Harris v. Quinn - scheduled to be decided today, involving similar unionization of Medicaid-supported homecare workers in Illinois. Malloy will be watching closely. An adverse ruling could upend his union-organization scheme.
Connecticut's FCCP contract calls for state spending on these workers to increase by 25 percent by its fourth year, including grants to FCCPs to make home improvements. Since personal care aids are also paid in part with state funds (reimbursements under state health care plans), the PCA contract will also increase state spending. Both FCCP and PCA contracts provide job training grants and various other forms of assistance, including commitments to "study the health care coverage of members." Can taxpayer-funded health and pension benefits for these new SEIU members be far off?
Of course, state taxpayers will bear the cost of all these pay and benefit increases. But what if the state cannot afford the negotiated wage and benefit increases? In that case, the state will be forced to reduce the number beneficiaries. Fewer low-income parents will receive child care subsidies and fewer elderly and disabled citizens will receive at-home health care reimbursements.
The most peculiar thing about the whole adventure? If Malloy wanted to increase the pay of PCAs and FCCPs, he could simply have pushed for higher health care reimbursement rates for PCA services and larger Care4Kids subsidy vouchers for FCCPs - both easily accomplished with his fellow Democratic Party members in control of the legislature. If he wanted to assure "quality" health care and child care, as asserted in his executive orders, he and his legislative allies could have instituted strengthened licensing requirements and provided job training funds for both PCAs and FCCPs.
Following a conventional legislative-budgetary approach, no unions would have been needed and no union dues siphoned from programming for these services.
So why did Malloy choose to get SEIU involved?
A clue might be found in the SEIU contracts themselves. There's an interesting provision authorizing: "voluntary contributions to the Union's political action/solidarity fund." Smells like a union payback for Malloy in his 2014 re-election bid.
Malloy is indeed organized labor's Servant-in-Chief. Come November, voters will decide whether they want four more years of his servitude.

President Barack Obama won Time\'s Person of the Year distinction for 2012, following his re-election this past November.
The article in the magazine opens with an anecdote from the moment Obama won the electoral vote in the critical swing state of Ohio. "This one's more satisfying than \'08," he said in the article. "It wasn't just about what I was going to do as President. It's what I've done."
The decision by Time quickly made the rounds on Twitter:
HowardKurtz: Barack Obama is Time\'s person of the year. Obvious, yes, but makes sense. Wonder if mag would have picked Romney had he won.
Media outlets from the Huffington Post to NBC News touted the decision.
The article goes on to point out that Obama overcame difficulties after his first two years in office, partly by resorting to his \"secret weapon\" — the people who don\'t much care for politics.
\"A sizable chunk of the President's most ardent backers don't admire either party yet think Obama is somehow above it all, immune to all the horse trading and favor mongering that politics entails. These voters aren't political in the cable-TV sense of the word. But in 2012, they stuck by Obama,\" the article said.
Rick Stengel, Time editor, said Obama \"is both the symbol and in some ways the architect of this new America….For finding and forging a new majority, for turning weakness into opportunity and for seeking, amidst great adversity, to create a more perfect union.\"
Time also released a short list for the Person of the Year title: Pakistani blogger Malala Yousafzai, Apple Inc. Chief Executive Tim Cook, Egyptian leader Mohamed Morsi, and Fabiola Gianotti, the Italian physicist.

These improv cross blocks were made by members of a quilting bee and the quilt was then assembled by Jacquie Gering. The improv lay out gives the quilt an unique and exciting twist. The quilt was quilted by Angela Walters.
Jacquie blogs at Tallgrass Prairie Studio and has been a member of two Modern Quilt Guilds! She was a founding member of the Kansas City MQG and is now a member of the Chicago MQG. She spent a few minutes answering some questions for us.
1) What do you like the most about improv piecing?
There is so much about improvisation that appeals to me. It's about creativity and taking an idea and making it come to life. Improvising is not the fastest way to make a quilt, but I enjoy not only the design process, but also the trial and error that I use to execute a design. It's rare that a quilt turns out as I originally envision it. Improvisation can be frustrating and exhilarating at the same time. I like that I have to work hard and sometimes even struggle. I'm challenged and because of that I can grow and change. Improvisation provides an opportunity for me to express myself in my quilts and make something that is uniquely mine.
2) What makes this quilt modern to you?
During the World War I the Red Cross encouraged quilters to contribute to the cause by making Red Cross quilts and charging to add signatures to the quilt. This quilt is my take on this traditional quilt. The cross block used in this quilt is a traditional block, but when I asked my bee friends to make them I requested them to improvise. We all took this block and made it our own. But beyond the block, the setting is what makes it modern. The blocks are set to create the impression of larger crosses that float within the negative space of the quilt.
3) What inspired this quilt?
This quilt was made just after the earthquake in Haiti in 2010. As I watched the humanitarian response to this disaster I was inspired to take these cross blocks and make my tribute to the American Red Cross. The quilt is called 'Peace and Comfort' and words that reflect the work of the Red Cross are quilted into the negative space of the quilt.

RedorBlue needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 202 designs submitted by 40 freelance designers.
Red or Blue
Red or Blue are a Internet marketing agency, specialising in innovative search engine marketing solutions.
The brand name was inspired by The Matrix movie, with the conversation between Neo and Morpheus talking about the Red pill that will give you the truth or take the Blue pill and keep your head in the sand.
For those unfamiliar with The Matrix, here's the scene that relates to the red or blue pill: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hhymzx6ovfQ
Our target audience is website owners who suspects they can do more with their Natural Search and online marketing strategy. We have the product to deliver and we want to communicate the sense of achievement brands can have working with us.
We also build key partnerships with other companies, so the logo should come across as approachable.
We like simple designs - less is always more.
Three words that reflect our products and services is Effective, Focused and Innovative. This should be reflected in the logo.
AVOID obvious Red or Blue pill images, be creative and communicate the Red or Blue relationship in your own way.
Open to suggestions and interpretations based on the guidelines above. Amaze us with what you can do!
** update to spec based on initial entries **
Red and Blue is commonly associated with Red team vs Blue team, such as US elections, The final logo should have it's own identity that breaks the norm of Red vs Blue.
Consider using a single flat neutral colour for the brand name. Also consider adding a graphical mark that could be used in isolation (such as in a favicon)
A few of the early logos reads "Red Blue" if applied in smaller sizes or low res. The "or" in the middle is very important as it highlights "choice" and that's important in the company product offering.
Also, the "or" in the brand helps to differentiate against the very well known "Red vs Blue" Halo game

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - Junior Callie Schmidt hit everything in sight this past weekend as the Tennessee Tech softball team finished 3-2 at the Frost Classic Inspired by Memorial. For her performance, Schmidt was selected the Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Week in a vote by OVC sports information directors.
Schmidt finished the three-day tournament 8-for-16 at the plate for a .500 batting average while amassing a slugging percentage of 1.125. A catcher in her second season with the Golden Eagles, Schmidt hit three homers, drove in six RBIs and scored five runs over the weekend. She was also solid behind the plate, compiling a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage.
To begin the tournament, Schmidt had a career game against Miami (Ohio) as she finished 4-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and an RBI. Her four hits were a new career high as she helped Tech to a 5-4 victory.
Later in the day, Schmidt hit another long ball against Oakland to make it two home runs in as many games.
Schmidt was the lone offensive bright spot for the Golden Eagles against Wright State as she roped an RBI double in the first inning to account for the only TTU run of the game. She followed that up with a 2-for-4 performance against East Tennessee State in the tournament's final game as she hit her third homer in three days and also had three RBIs and two runs scored.
This is Schmidt's first Player of the Week honor of her career, and she is the first Golden Eagle to earn the distinction since Stephanie Fischer was selected in the 2008 season.
For the season, Schmidt ranks first in the team in batting average (.448), slugging percentage (.793), hits (13), RBIs (10) and home runs (3).
Schmidt and the Golden Eagles return to action this weekend at the Buzz Classic in Woodstock, Ga. Tech begins the three-day tournament on Friday against Western Carolina.

It's easy to forget the impact of the Conservation Reserve Program until you drive through the Delta and hill areas of Mississippi and see fields that have been fallowed or planted to trees.
When Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss., first proposed the CRP, he wanted to protect highly erodible or worn out soils by removing them from row crop production, thus idling marginal land that was doing little other than to contribute to surpluses that depressed prices.
Sen. Cochran's epiphany came during a particularly intense farm bill debate. It occurred to him that he could win much-needed votes by including programs like the Conservation Reserve, the Wetlands Reserve, Environmental Quality Incentives and Wildlife Habitat Incentives in the legislation.
Initially, Congress approved a goal of enrolling 36 million acres in the CRP. Then it raised the authorization to 39 million acres in its effort to pass a more conservation-oriented farm bill in 2002.
The latter also included the Conservation Security Program, which promised to pay farmers for switching to reduced tillage and other conservation farming practices. But it appears something got lost in the translation when USDA attempted to implement the increased CRP and the CSP, according to watchdog groups.
Although Congress passed the law in May 2002, USDA did not conduct the first sign-up for the Conservation Security Program until this summer and then with a much more limited scope than the authors of the program intended.
For their part, USDA officials complained that the language authorizing the CSP was ambiguous. Then the House Budget Committee reduced the funding for the program in subsequent appropriations bills.
USDA's version limits the program to 18 priority watersheds in which the first sign-up was concluded July 30. But groups like the Sustainable Agriculture Coalition says USDA was slow in providing the needed information for that sign-up.
"At the start, only one of the 18 watershed sites — the Blue Earth watershed in Minnesota and Iowa — included all of the relevant CSP payment information," said the SAC's Ferd Hoefner. "Only three include any payment information."
Hoefner said USDA also imposed four extra payment limits on the CSP besides the two that were included in the 2002 farm bill. "The latter will severely limit the size of CSP incentive payments for smaller acreage farms and likely result in few enrollments of these operations.
"The administration's implementation plan for CSP payments is not only incredibly complicated but favors large farms over smaller ones and those with high rental rates over others," he said.
A report by the Environmental Law & Policy Center in Chicago suggests that farm organizations may be forced to focus more on programs like the CRP and CSP because of the rumored WTO ruling against the U.S. cotton program and the new framework agreement in the WTO Doha Round negotiations. If that is the case, congressional leaders need to make sure the budget committee and USDA have a complete understanding of its conservation program intentions the next time around.

ACLU Sues The Government On Its Own Behalf, As A Verizon Customer, Arguing 4th Amendment Violations
from the to-which-the-feds-will-scream-national-security-and-shut-up deptThere have already been a few lawsuits filed about the various NSA surveillance revelations of the last week, but one to watch closely is the lawsuit filed yesterday by the ACLU on its own behalf. The ACLU frequently represents others, but in this case, it notes that it's a Verizon customer, so the mass sucking up of all phone call records on Verizon directly impacts the ACLU.
"This dragnet program is surely one of the largest surveillance efforts ever launched by a democratic government against its own citizens," said Jameel Jaffer, ACLU deputy legal director. "It is the equivalent of requiring every American to file a daily report with the government of every location they visited, every person they talked to on the phone, the time of each call, and the length of every conversation. The program goes far beyond even the permissive limits set by the Patriot Act and represents a gross infringement of the freedom of association and the right to privacy."As we had just pointed out, the ACLU lost its case before the Supreme Court on this very subject (the Constitutionality of the FISA Amendments Act) just a few months ago, because the Supreme Court argued that the plaintiffs in that case (Amnesty International) only had speculation that its lawyers had their records monitored. But here, the ACLU rightly points out, it now has the evidence that the ACLU's calls were sucked up in this dragnet.
The ACLU is a customer of Verizon Business Network Services, which was the recipient of a secret FISA Court order published by The Guardian last week. The order required the company to "turn over on 'an ongoing daily basis' phone call details" such as who calls are placed to and from, and when those calls are made. The lawsuit argues that the government's blanket seizure of and ability to search the ACLU's phone records compromises sensitive information about its work, undermining the organization's ability to engage in legitimate communications with clients, journalists, advocacy partners, and others.
In other words, this time, there should be no issue of "standing" to deal with.
Of course, the feds will respond the way they normally do in such cases: claiming national security and sovereign immunity. That's what let the feds off the hook on the only other case where evidence of actual monitoring had been leaked, and where the "standing" issue wasn't in dispute. In that case, an appeals court ruled, basically, that the government never actually has to have the Constitutionality of such laws determined in court, because it can claim sovereign immunity to kill off any such lawsuits. If that seems like a crazy result, you'd be correct. That ruling was in the 9th Circuit. This new case is being filed in the Southern District of NY, which is in the Second Circuit. Hopefully, the court rules the other way, setting up a Supreme Court case to resolve the circuit split. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court isn't known for being particularly great at protecting civil liberties lately, so even that may be risky. But, at least there's a chance.

nycmarketer needed a new stationery design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 26 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
Lillie's is a very popular, upscale Victorian-themed bar and restaurant in New York City, centrally located at Union Square in Manhattan.
The establishment is named after Lillie Langtry, a beautiful 19th century socialite who came to NYC from Ireland. The Irish owners have gone as far as importing historic Victorian-era antique carvings and bar ornaments to make Lillie's a true Victorian establishment.
Words to describe Lillie's would be...
Victorian. Classic, but not boring. Stylish, but not trendy. Sophisticated. Confident. Authentic. Seductive. Friendly.
What we are not: We are not a "College Irish Bar", nor are we a trendy bar.
Professionals in their mid 20s and 30s that work in media, fashion and advertising. They have above-average incomes, and are attracted to Lillie's because it is a beautiful establishment that is both upscale and friendly. Our customers like to come to Lillie's because it's a great place to bring co-workers after work for a drink or dinner, or to meet new, interesting, successful New Yorkers.
We need a full color template (4 inch wide, 2 inch tall) card to be used for 3 different promotional needs.
Each card designs will share the same front design, but the back design will vary in terms of copy per below. We have uploaded multiple logo versions in a RAR file for designers to utilize.

A breast scan is an imaging test to look at your breasts. It is used when a mammogram has not given your healthcare provider enough information.
A breast scan is a type of nuclear imaging test. This means that a tiny amount of a radioactive matter is used during the scan. The radioactive matter called tracer sends out gamma rays. These are picked up by the scanner to make a picture of your breasts.
The areas of the breast where the radioactive tracer collects in greater amounts are called "hot spots." The areas that do not absorb the tracer and appear less bright on the scan image are referred to as "cold spots." Cancer cells are usually the hot spots in a breast scan.
A breast scan can be helpful in diagnosing breast cancer in younger women. Younger women usually have denser breasts than older women. Denser breast tissue can also happen because of the following:
You may need a breast scan if the results of a mammogram are uncertain. Or your healthcare provider may use a breast scan along with mammography.
Your healthcare provider may order a breast scan if he or she thinks you have any of the following:
Your healthcare provider may also order a breast scan to see how well blood is flowing through your breast tissue.
If you have breast cancer, a breast scan can help figure out the stage of your cancer. Your healthcare provider may also use the scan as a follow-up after surgery, chemotherapy, or other breast cancer treatment.
Your healthcare provider may have other reasons to recommend a breast scan.
The risk from the radioactive tracer is very low. The amount used in the test is very small. You may feel some slight discomfort when the tracer is injected. Allergic reactions to the tracer are rare, but they may happen.
Lying on the scanning table during the procedure may cause some discomfort or pain for certain people.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are:
You may have other risks that are unique to you. Discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider before the procedure.
You may have a breast scan as an outpatient or as part of your stay in a hospital. The way the test is done may vary depending on your condition and your healthcare provider's practices.
Generally, a breast scan follows this process:
The breast scan is not painful. But you may have some discomfort or pain from lying still during the test. This may be because of recent surgery or a joint injury. The technologist will use all possible comfort measures and do the scan as quickly as possible to minimize any discomfort or pain.
You should move slowly when getting up from the scanner table to avoid any dizziness or lightheadedness.
You may be told to drink plenty of fluids and empty your bladder often for 1 to 2 days after the scan. This will help flush the radioactive tracer from your body.
The medical staff will check the IV site for any signs of redness or swelling. Tell your healthcare provider if you see any pain, redness, or swelling at the IV site after you go home. These may be signs of infection or another type of reaction.
You may go back to your usual diet and activities as directed by your healthcare provider.
Your healthcare provider may give you other instructions, depending on your situation.
Before you agree to the test or the procedure make sure you know:

Oaths were taken seriously in the 18th and early 19th centuries. This document was used to make sure that newly elected members to a town's government thought and believed in a particular way. And when these new representatives swore their oath, people felt secure that they believed the things they swore to: few would have dared to violate a solemn oath such as this. This oath was drafted in the years after the American Revolution, when it was likely that someone in Deerfield, Massachusetts, would still have had allegiance to the King of England or who did not believe that Massachusetts should be a "free, sovereign" state. Each item in this oath was put there to prevent past or present enemies of the United States from serving on Deerfield's town government.

Little Falls Man Accused of Killing 2 to Seek Lower Bail
LITTLE FALLS (AP) — The Little Falls man accused of killing two teenage cousins is expected to ask a judge to lower his $2 million bail.
64-year-old Byron David Smith has a court hearing set for Monday afternoon.
Smith told police he shot and killed 18-year-old Haile Kifer and 17-year-old Nick Brady after they broke into his home on Thanksgiving. He's charged with two counts of second-degree murder.
Sheriff Michel Wetzel has said homeowners have a right to protect themselves, but that Smith used excessive force. Prosecutors say Smith executed the teens even after they'd been incapacitated by earlier shots.
Wetzel says property found in the vehicle that Kifer and Brady drove to Smith's home contained items from at least one other Morrison County burglary.

Missing three of their returning varsity players, Mount St. Joseph Academy's summer basketballers had their hands full last Monday night in a Lou Cappiella League contest. The Magic held a four-point edge over Pope John Paul II High School, but fell behind the Golden Panthers in the second half before rallying to secure a 32-28 victory.
The Mount raised its record to 5-1 in the league, with the lone loss coming on a night in late June when the Magic used only JV players in a game against the varsity club from Norristown High School.
At the outset of last Monday's bout, two successful drives by the Panthers were countered by a 17-foot jumper by MSJ junior Adrienne Cellucci and a transition lay-up by senior Maddie Kohler. Senior guard Bridget Higgins broke this 4-4 stalemate, starting slowly by hitting the first of a pair of free throws, then driving for a field goal and coming right back to score off of a steal.
Another foul shot and a mid-range jumper by the senior followed, and when sophomore Regan Gallagher converted off of an offensive rebound, the Magic owned a 10-point lead (14-4) with more than half of the opening period in the books.
Mount St. Joe would only add five more points to its total before halftime, though, while John Paul II closed up the score to 19-15. The Panthers hit a few jumpers but did most of their damage by penetrating through the defense to deposit lay-ups.
As the second half dawned they kept the Mount guessing by starting off with a three-pointer, then tallied twice from the paint to move ahead, 22-19. A three-pointer from the left side by Kohler got the Magic going in the trailing half, tying the score in the process. The Panthers led one last time at 24-22, then a lay-up and two free throws by Higgins and a baseline jumper by sophomore Julia Shinkle moved the Mount ahead for good.
Gallagher joined in on the scoring but when the Magic called time-out with 50 seconds remaining, they were still only ahead by three points, 31-28. The Mounties missed the front end of a one-and-one and then left a Panther shooter open for a three-point attempt with seven seconds to go, but the shot missed.
Higgins scored the final point of the evening from the foul mine with three ticks on the clock, and finished with a team-high 14 points. Gallagher came away with six points, and Kohler and Cellucci had five apiece.

Revision as of 09:28, 6 March 2013
This page describes how to get the rtl8187 wifi-driver working
The rtl8187 chip is made for usb-cards/dongles. It supports 802.11(a)/b/g and the following encryptions: WEP, WPA and WPA2. The rtl8187 driver is in the kernel now.
Using and testing the driver/Troubleshooting
Make sure that you have loaded the rtl8187 module with
modprobe rtl8187
Then run
dmesg | grep rtl8187
You should see some output like this
usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8187
If you see that line everything should be OK
Using the driver
If everything is right, you should have two new interfaces: wlan0 and wmaster0 If you do not see wlan0 just run
ifconfig wlan0 up
To list all available wifi-networks just run
iwlist wlan0 scan
For more information about configuring your wifi-network see here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup#Setup_and_Boot
What to do if your connection always times out?
The open source driver suffers from a lot of tx excessive retries and invalid misc errors for some unknown reason, resulting in a lot of packet loss and it keeps disconnecting, some times instantly.
Adjusting with iwconfig options
Lowering the rate
The solution can be found in this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=299642
Just set the rate to 5.5
iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M auto
Fixed option should ensure, however, it doesn't change the rate on its own, thus making the connection a bit more stable:
iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed
Alternativelly find the $POST_UP option and append the above options to your profile config file:
POST_UP="iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed"
Try various rates until you get the optimal setting, with no disconnection. In this case 12Mbits, as shown bellow:
POST_UP="iwconfig wlan0 rate 12M fixed"
Now calling;
netfcg2 -c <wireless profile>
and choosing your profile works without extra commands.
Lowering the txpower
You can try lowering the transmit power as well. This may save power as well:
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 5
or even as low as 0. Valid settings are from 0 to 20, auto and off for the stock kernel driver.
Setting rts and fragmentation thresholds
Default iwconfig options have rts and fragmentation thresholds off. These options are particularly useful when there are many adjacent APs or in a noisy environment.
The minimum value for fragmentation value is 256 and maximum is 2346. In many windows drivers the maximum is the default value:
iwconfig wlan0 frag 2346
For rts minimum is 0, maximum is 2347. Once again windows drivers use maximum as the default:
iwconfig wlan0 rts 2347

Don't. That's the Win32 API for graphics programming using nothing but windows. Go get yourself lispbuilder-sdl with quicklisp. It'll be cross-platform, you'll be able to call lisp functions in your lisp image instead of C ones in the windows libs, and you won't have to deal with the ungodly nightmare that is the Win32 API. Much much easier all round. Also, SDL is designed for game programming, and it shouldn't be hard to find tutorials on how to code simple games and game effects.
If you want a scrolling briefing, create a large image or text, render to an SDL surface, and then move it's y-coordinate upwards by a fixed amount per second. It'll be easier if you lock the framerate, too, so that one second is a defined number of frames. If you have a fixed resolution as well, then you can just create something in MS Paint, Photoshop, the GIMP, or any other image editor.I don't know how you'd loop it, if that's what you want to do. Have two, move the top one to the bottom once it's off the screen? Something like that.
