Benzion Netanyahu, father of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, died early Monday at the age of 102 and the Israeli newspaper Haaretz noted that Benzion Netanyahu "remembered for his great influence on the worldview of his son, Benjamin."
Specifically, Benzion pushed Benjamin toward a hard-line stance toward Iran.
One of Benjamin's friends told The Atlantic in 2010: "Always in the back of Bibi's mind is Ben-Zion. He worries that his father will think he is weak."
The prime minister also cited his father in televised comments two years ago about the impossibility of compromise:
"We are very simply in danger of extermination today. Not just existential danger, but truly in danger of extermination. They think the extermination, the Holocaust, is over, it isn't, it goes on all the time...
"I have always said that a necessary condition for the existence of any living body, and for a nation, is the ability to identify a danger in time, a characteristic which our nation lost in the Diaspora. You taught me, Father, how to correctly view reality, how to understand what it contains within it and draw the necessary conclusions... The same foresight led Father to say dozens of years ago that the threat to world peace would emerge from the same parts of the Muslim world where oil, terrorism and nuclear go together."
Does Benzion's death change the equation? Don't be surprised if the father's voice becomes even stronger in death.

DAHLONEGA, Ga. – The Bobcat women's basketball team (5-0) made it five-straight as they defeated St. Augustine's College (4-2) 67-58 Saturday, getting three players in double figures in game three of the 2010 Chick-Fil-A Thanksgiving Classic hosted by North Georgia. Seniors Dominique Huffin (Tucker, Ga.) and Chimere Jordan (Gray, Ga.) along with sophomore Karisma Boykin (Carrollton, Ga.) all scored in double-digits for Georgia College.
Freshman forward Abby Slocumb (Suwanee, Ga.) contributed "crazy eights" of her own, scoring eight and recording eight rebounds, a career-high.
At the end of the first 20 minutes, the Bobcats were ahead of St. Augustine's College (SAC) 39-32 as Jordan hit a shot from downtown right before time expired.
Keyona Bryant and Allison Sikes both recorded double-doubles for the Falcons as Bryant had 25 points and 17 rebounds with Sikes adding 18 points and 11 boards.

Barksdale's nephew - the son of his sister - rose through the ranks of the organization and was eventually given the high-rise tower at 221 West Fremont, lucrative territory. But his inability to handle a common argument in the lobby of the building led to a shooting - a slaying that was more panic and self-defense than any intended consequence.
Barksdale saved his nephew from prison by bribing a key witness in the case - and outcome that angered a city judge who, learning from McNulty the extent of Barksdale's organization, pressured the police to begin the probe of the drug crew. Caught by detectives muling a package of heroin from New York, D'Angelo came close to turning state's witness against the rest of his family in exchange for the chance at a new life. A pretrial jail visit by his mother, Brianna Barksdale, convinced him to take a twenty-year sentence instead. Fearful that he would not be able to do the time and concerned as D'Angelo began to distance himself from his uncle inside the state prison, Bell ordered his murder and did so without the foreknowledge of Avon or his sister.
D'Angelo was strangled in the prison library and a lax investigation by state troopers led to the death being classified as a suicide.

The wedding guests of San Francisco couple Sadie and Nowell were in for a big surprise when they received the couple's wedding announcement. When the bride and groom, both originally from the east coast, realized that their families' flights to California would take nearly as long as a trip to Italy—their honeymoon locale—they thought, "Why not move the party there?" So the couple alerted the troops of their Tuscany destination wedding in a save-the-date e-mail. "We gave everyone eight months to plan for such a big trip," says Sadie. "They were so excited to learn they would be traveling to Italy!"
The pair worked with Tuscany-based planner Monica Bali on the details of their big day, as well as coordinating the travel logistics. "Nowell and I wanted to take care of everyone's accommodations in Italy," says Sadie, so the couple rented Villa Cerretello and Villa Vignola, two neighboring estates set against the rolling hills of Tuscany, to house their 26 guests.
They invited all to arrive on the Saturday before their Monday wedding—giving them time to see the area and adjust to the time difference—and arranged for a catered welcome dinner of pizza so that guests could relax and unwind. On the big day, everyone gathered for the outdoor ceremony on the lawn near Villa Cerretello, where Sadie and Nowell exchanged vows under a bamboo arbor. Afterward, they accompanied their guests back to the villa for a banquet-style dinner beneath a covered patio overlooking the hillside. Wanting their dinner and dessert to feature traditional Italian fare, the couple had their Florence-based caterer, Convivium, present authentic dishes like fried zucchini flowers, handmade ravioli with spinach, and tuna carpaccio with grilled vegetables. —Cristi L. Hansen
Learn from Sadie and Nowell
Plan a Pre-Wedding Visit: To make sure that all of the elements were up to par, Sadie and her mom traveled to Tuscany five months before the wedding to do a walk-through of the villas, and also met with her caterer for a tasting.
Spotlight the Locale: Sadie and Nowell wanted to incorporate aspects of their location into the reception, so they printed the dinner menus with an image of their villa on the front and served Tuscan wines throughout the night.
Schedule Group Activities: Because most guests stayed for a week, the couple gave them fun ways to spend their time: They offered a cooking class, a horseback ride through the town and a wine tasting during their stay.

The Flower Ornament Scripture

Nook eBook DownloadBefore you go, sign up to receive news & promotions from Shambhala.com
Known in Chinese as Hua-yen and in Japanese as Kegon-kyo, the Avatamsaka Sutra, or Flower Ornament Scripture, is held in the highest regard and studied by Buddhists of all traditions. Through its structure and symbolism, as well as through its concisely stated principles, it conveys a vast range of Buddhist teachings.
This one-volume edition contains Thomas Cleary's definitive translation of all thirty-nine books of the sutra, along with an introduction, a glossary, and Cleary's translation of Li Tongxuan's seventh-century guide to the final book, the Gandavyuha, "Entry into the Realm of Reality."News & Reviews
"There is no doubt in my mind that Thomas Cleary is the greatest translator of Buddhist texts from Chinese or Japanese into English of our generation, and that he will be so known by grateful Buddhist practitioners and scholars in future centuries. Single-handedly he has gone a long way toward building the beginnings of a Buddhist canon in English. . . . His translation of the Flower Ornament Sutra from Shikshananda's Chinese translation of the Sanskrit is one of the monuments in Buddhist Studies of our time." —Robert A. F. Thurman, Tricycle
"As to the Avatamsaka-Sutra, it is really the consummation of Buddhist thought, Buddhist sentiment, and Buddhist experience. To my mind, no religious literature in the world can ever approach the grandeur of conception, the depth of feeling, and the gigantic scale of composition, as attained by the sutra. Here not only deeply speculative minds find satisfaction, but humble spirits and heavily oppressed hearts, too, will have their burdens lightened. Abstract truths are so concretely, so symbolically represented here that one will finally come to a realization of the truth that even in a particle of dust the whole universe is seen reflected-not this visible universe only, but a vast system of universes, conceivable by the highest minds only." —D. T. SuzukiReader Reviews

A beautiful subdued mocha taupe.
Our ribbons are made of a light silk habotai and dyed in small batches from a unique blend of pigments to create subtle and complex shades. They're then hand torn, frayed and spooled for an organic, soft feel. Ribbons are created in 3 yard lengths: each .5" and 1" spool contains two lengths (for a total of 6 yards) while the 1.75" wider ribbon is spooled as one 3 yard piece. The 2.5" width ribbon is delivered unspooled in a cloth muslin bag and may require ironing prior to use. The silk twine is our narrowest ribbon, approx. 1/8 - 1/4" at it's widest point. It hasn't been steamed and has a few loose threads here and there so it has a lovely organic feel to it and looks beautiful wrapped around stationery once or even twice.
Due to the handmade nature of our ribbons please allow 5 business days for production. For rush orders please email firstname.lastname@example.com

I've been hearing, from reliable officials, that FEMA insurance is possibly going to be phased out in favor of private insurance, or a government loan program. Government-controlled programs concern me, mostly because they seem to be letting most of us down. All the brochures looked good, like the posh resort that turned out to be a living hell, and now elected officials have to explain to us how they are advocating on our behalf.
Lift a home to a first-floor level 2 feet higher than the flood height in your zone, according to state code. AE 8 means a new finished floor level of 10 feet above sea level. I would build higher, to avoid a wet wooden floor support structure, since most who were flooded had water higher than reflected in the flood maps. Best of luck!

The fundraising campaign to rebuild Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital has received a generous $2 million gift from Santa Barbara-based Cavalletto Charities.
Cottage Health System is in the process of building a new Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital to meet California's requirements to withstand a major earthquake and to provide a larger facility designed to accommodate the medical technologies that have evolved during the past decades. The rebuild will also position the hospital and Cottage Health System to respond to the growing health-care needs of the region.
When the new GVCH opens in 2014, its new main lobby will be dedicated to the memory of the late George and Dale Cavalletto. Over the years, the Cavalletto couple made many generous donations to GVCH.
"The Trustees of the Cavalletto Charities are very pleased to continue this important philanthropic tradition by supporting the rebuilding of Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital," said Dennis Reilly, chair of Cavalletto Charities.
The new GVCH has an estimated total cost of $114 million. Although the state is requiring the work, it is providing no funding to help hospitals retrofit or rebuild. There is also no funding coming from any local or national agency.
Funds to pay for the hospital rebuild will need to come from hospital operations, tax-exempt bonds and generous community donations.
The new, two-story GVCH will total 152,000 square feet, and plans include more than doubling the size of the Emergency Department and expanding both the Surgical Services Department and the Center for Wound Management. The new facility will include 52 beds and will improve patient comfort by providing all private rooms.
"We are thrilled and grateful for this wonderful gift to our Building Well, Being Well Campaign for the new Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital," said Diane Wisby, vice president of GVCH. "It is so fitting that the gift was made in memory of long-time benefactors George and Dale Cavalletto."
The couple's estate plan created the Cavalletto Charities in 2003 and it has been a major annual donor to Cottage Health System and Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital.
The Cavalletto family history in Santa Barbara began in 1892 with Giovanni Battista Cavalletto, who emigrated from Italy at age 16.
George Cavalletto, son of Giovanni, was a pioneering Goleta farmer, businessman and attorney. In 1954, he was a founding member of the law firm Cavalletto, Webster, Mullen and McCaughey, now known as Mullen & Henzell.
The Cavalletto family has a long history of involvement with the Goleta hospital. In 1962, George Cavalletto provided a 66-year lease on the property at Patterson and Hollister for the development of a hospital. The ground lease was conveyed to Goleta Valley Community Hospital in 1973.
In 1987, Cavalletto developed a medical office building across from the hospital that facilitated physician support of Goleta Valley Community Hospital. A year later, Cavalletto was recognized by the Goleta Valley Community Hospital Board as an Honorary Founder. He remained committed to the hospital and used it for all of his health-care needs. The hospital changed its name in 1996 to reflect its affiliation with Cottage Health System.
Dale Cavalletto was a member of the Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital Foundation Board from 1989-2002. She was board chair from 1991-92. She was also a founding board member of the Breast Care Center at GVCH from 1991-96.
Dale Cavalletto's daughter, Valerie Fuette, is a Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital Foundation board member, an active volunteer for the hospital's building campaign, and a trustee of the Cavalletto Charities.
— Maria Zate is the marketing and public affairs manager for Cottage Health System.

Journeyman Ken Duke made a 2½ foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole Sunday to beat Chris Stroud at the Travelers Championship to win his first ever PGA Tour event.
Stroud had chipped in from 51 feet on the 18th hole to force the playoff.
But the 44-year-old Duke made the better approach shot on the second extra hole, bouncing his ball in front of the flag and rolling it close.
Duke wouldn't have been there at all had luck not intervened on the 10th hole, when his ball ricocheted off a tree and onto the green to about 5 feet from the pin, allowing him to make birdie.
Canadian Graham DeLaet finished a stroke back in third place. Bubba Watson finished fourth, two-shots behind, after making a six on the par-3 16th hole.

Farm Service Agency County Committee Elections: Vote by January 17 Deadline
USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) State Executive Director, Val Dolcini, is reminding farmers, ranchers and other agricultural producers that the deadline to return completed ballots for the Farm Service Agency County Committee Elections is this Friday, Jan. 17, 2014. Eligible voters who have not received a ballot can obtain one from their local USDA Service Center. Ballots returned by mail must be postmarked no later than Jan. 17.
To be an eligible voter, farmers and ranchers must participate or cooperate in an FSA program. A person who is not of legal voting age, but supervises and conducts the farming operations of an entire farm may also be eligible to vote. Agricultural producers in each county submitted candidate nominations during the nomination period, which ended on Aug. 1.
County committee members are an important component of the operations of FSA and provide a link between the agricultural community and USDA. Farmers and ranchers elected to county committees help deliver FSA programs at the local level, applying their knowledge and judgment to make decisions on commodity price support programs; conservation programs; incentive indemnity and disaster programs for some commodities; emergency programs and eligibility. FSA committees operate within official regulations designed to carry out federal laws.
Close to 7,700 FSA county committee members serve in the 2,124 FSA offices nationwide. Each committee consists of three to 11 members who serve three-year terms. Approximately one-third of county committee seats are up for election each year. More information on county committees, such as the 2013 fact sheet and brochures, can be found on the FSA website at www.fsa.usda.gov/elections or at a local USDA Service Center.

Garmin's Viago GPS App Has Powerful Features—Especially if You Pay Extra
Garmin, the once-mighty GPS powerhouse, just launched Víago, the latest attempt to win back its former hardware customers. And it may well be Garmin's most compelling software offering yet.
When it comes to GPS navigation, Google has most of us spoiled. We get free turn-by-turn navigation anywhere in the world, right on our phones. And when another company dares to give us free turn-by-turn navigation that isn't as good (yes, that'd be Apple), everybody reaches for the pitchforks and torches. It's easy to forget a time not long ago when paying $200 for a Garmin or TomTom seemed like a reasonable way to get in-car GPS.
Well, Garmin hasn't forgotten. Think of Víago—which arrives today for both iOS and Android—as a highly customizable GPS system on your phone. For a trivial 99 cents (until July 13, when it goes up to $1.99), you get a fully functioning GPS app with on-demand maps and turn-by-turn instructions wherever you are. Many of Víago's stock features aren't to be found in Google's free Maps app:
- Multiple-destination route planner
- Posted speed limits
- Your own current speed
- Weather reports for your destination
- Photo-realistic junction views
We haven't tested it yet, but if the interface is nice enough, that seems like an impressive starting point. But the fun—for you and for Garmin's accounting department—begins when you start buying add-on packages.
On-board maps, provided by Nokia's Here mapping system, are a key starting point: Maybe you want to download a U.S. map to use when you're out of cellular range, or maybe you want a Latin America map, to help you get around on vacation while avoiding crazy international roaming fees. That's $19.99 each for maps of North America, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Australia/New Zealand. (The maps are actually on sale for $9.99 until July 13.)
In addition to the maps, there are seven other in-app purchases you can make to build your own Víago experience. Here are the standouts:
Traffic Live ($19.99 but $9.99 until July 13): Traffic alerts that combine historic data with realtime information from fellow drivers. It will show traffic in the navigation view, and automatically route you around gridlock.
Safety Kit ($9.99) - Active lane guidance, telling you where to be when you're getting on and off the highway; speed limit alerts; school zone warnings; routing that enables the shortest or fastest options.
Real Directions ($9.99) - Perhaps the most interesting feature, a turn-by-turn instruction set that tells you to turn right "at the light" or "when you pass the Starbucks." It uses landmarks, lights and other information collected at the busiest intersections. It requires on-board maps in order to work.
The other add-ons, all $9.99 each, will provide features such as public transit routing, 3-D maps, spoken street names and the locations of speed cameras. (And despite these screenshots, there is a horizontal view, too—something many drivers prefer because of the lower dashboard profile.)
As you probably guessed, this $2 app could easily cost you upwards of $100 if you start letting the nickels and dimes pile up. Garmin isn't offering a "kitchen sink" bundle at a discounted rate, and besides, any price at all is very hard to compete with Google's "good enough and free." But at least with Víago, you get a choice: keep it simple or pay for the features you want most.

You could add a #define in the library header file so that your sketch can verify that the files in the library directory has had your personal attention.
I found a more configurable LCD library a little while ago. Main page is here: http://www.slashdev.ca/arduino-lcd-library
The pins are configurable via software, and it uses the R/S (or is it RW?) line instead of hard-coded delays, so it should be more efficient and faster. I've only just started playing with it and I think I've got some wiring issues at the moment, but it's got promise.

Long before the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, there was a group of radical young men who fomented rebellion against the British monarchy.
They represented all tiers of society, from well-heeled lawyers to humble craftsmen. They met in secret at Boston's Green Dragon Tavern to plot daring acts of defiance. They railed against taxation without representation.
And rather than serve as second-class subjects of a distant monarch, they famously believed that all men are created equal and endowed with the unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Those seminal years leading to America's violent separation from the British Empire are...

Yeah, I was doubtful of Reach but trusted Bungie to make something awesome and they did, the same with ODST which I think is my favorite of the Halos, Halo Wars(the RTS) was a blatant cash grab but ended up a halfway decent console RTS ( which we don't see enough of ).
I'm fully expecting the new halo trilogy to suck giant hairy balls too, but at least in the originals you had a level of respect for the game and it's fans, a commitment to make something that would stand the test of time instead of treating IPs as things to be milked annually.
Really? I always play in teams in FPSes, it's way more fun to collaborate and do lulz like ripping off a turret and hopping on the back of an ATV to make a mini-Warthog or various ietpack shennanigains.
Map control is a big part of strategy, but the playing field is always even. You have to decide quickly which power weapons to rush for and how to best use them.

About the product
Cover for IKEA MELLBY Armchair Sahara Antique White. Neutrals (black, grey, white, and brown) are basic to the decorator's tool kit.

Neutral colours such as grey will blend with any décor, complement a more prominent color, and are easy to use.

Care instructions
Liquid Stains: Blot the liquid stain gently with a high-absorbent material. Pat dry the area gently with a dry material to remove the remaining humidity (cotton cloth, paper towel, etc.). If the stain from the spill remains, remove the stain with a soapy cloth without diffusing the stain. After each rubbing motion, refresh the clean soapy cloth in order to prevent soiling. Solid Particles: Remove the excess soiling with ultimate care without diffusing. Remove the solid particle from the fabric surface with the help of a soft spatula. To remove dust, use a vacuum cleaner or a soft brush. The remaining stains should be removed by rubbing with a soapy cloth in circular motion. Ball-point pen and similar difficult stains: Dampen a clean cotton cloth in a white soap solution. Rub the stain off gently. Clean the surface with the damp cloth and leave the fabric for drying. Alcohol derives, Petroleum and alkali based solvents should not be used for cleaning. After all cleaning processes, the drying should be done with a low temperature blow dryer in large circular motion or the fabric should be left for natural drying. After drying, mis-oriented and damaged piles should be fixed with a soft brush.

SAHARA granite Grey MIA

Amaya M.
Unfortunately, the Sahara granite grey sample that we ordered never arrived. We DID however, receive the Sahara in Onyx. The fabric, texture and appearance, is coarser than I would have imagined it to be, sort of like a tough tweed. This is NOT a style we'll choose for the look we're hoping to achieve, but the Lido in granite grey, grey, and light grey, are all good possibilities. We also like the step melange and the boss style fabrics.

I ordered the wrong size cover the first time. Shipping to return it was going to be more than the cover cost so I kept it, and ordered another in the correct size. The cover is very well made.

My memory is foggy. I'm getting older. But I sure don't remember Digimon being this sexualized. Do you?
Today, Namco Bandai announced some new Digimon content, including touch-based mobile title Digimon Crusader. The game, which is an RPG, seems way more adult than the Digimon games I remember. Maybe because the first wave of Digimon players are...adults?
This art style, however, shouldn't be a surprise if you've been paying attention (I haven't!). PSP Digimon World: Re: Digitize, which was released this past July, had similar art.
This fall, Digimon Crusader will be released on smartphones in Japan.
Update: Fahey points out that Angewomon looked similar from Season 1. So there ya go.

US 84 Nolan County bridge replacement scheduled
New bridge expected to be open by mid-summer Nolan County — The Texas Department of Transportation's Abilene District began a project this week to replace the US 84 eastbound overpass at westbound I-20 in Nolan County. The overpass was severely damaged after a collision in late September and was demolished in November to allow for a replacement. The new structure will be a one-span bridge with retaining walls, said Big Spring Area Engineer Jesse Mendoza, P.E., who is overseeing the project. The overpass is expected to be finished and open to traffic within four months.The construction will require some daytime closures of the main lanes on westbound I-20 for setting beams and pouring the bridge deck. Drivers should follow detour signs and directions during these brief closures. US 84 traffic headed to eastbound I-20 should continue to follow the detour that has been in place for several months.J.H. Strain and Sons, Inc. of Tye will complete the project for about $1.6 million.

Chris Hemsworth, is that you?
The 32-year-old actor plays receptionist Kevin, in Paul Feig's upcoming "Ghostbusters" reboot, which features an all-female main cast. In the first photo of the character, released Wednesday on the movie's website, Hemsworth looks, well, more Rick Moranis than beefy Australian stud – meaning, adorably nerdy.
He sports a short-sleeved shirt, black vest, red tie and horn-rimmed glasses and sits behind the Ghostbusters' receptionist's desk. Annie Potts had played bespectacled receptionist Janine, the equivalent of his role, in the original '80s movies.
The main actors in the "Ghostbusters" reboot are "SNL's" Kate McKinnon, 32, and Leslie Jones, 48, former cast member-turned-comedy film star Kristen Wiig, 42, and Melissa McCarthy, 45. New, individual photos of the four were also released.
McCarthy had joked to E! News' Marc Malkin in November that Hemsworth was "shirtless the entire time" while filming Ghostbusters, while Feig confirmed the actor does show off his body in the movie.
"You will be seeing some man flesh," the director said.
Posters for the new "Ghostbusters" movie were released in December. The film is set to hit theaters on July 15.

Kevin Durant notched his first career triple-double with 25 points, 13 rebounds and a career-high 10 assists, and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Golden State Warriors 119-109 on Sunday night.
The three-time NBA scoring champion has had growing pains this season as he has tried to improve his floor game, with a bump in his assist number coinciding with an increase in his turnovers, too. He came in averaging four turnovers per game, the fourth-worst in the league.
He turned it over just twice in this one and pumped his right fist after he set up Kevin Martin's 3-pointer with 4:57 to play for his 10th assist. The play also helped the Thunder hold on after Golden State cut a 21-point deficit to seven in the fourth quarter.
Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 22 points, and David Lee chipped in 19 points and 10 rebounds.

Borrowing a chapter from the John Hughes school of teen comedy, this likeable caper was a box office success. Patrick Dempsey stars as Ronald Miller, a high school nerd about to enter his senior year, who longs for acceptance as one of the "cool kids." His next-door neighbor Cindy Mancini (Amanda Peterson) is a cheerleader and one of the most popular girls in school, but she doesn't even know that Ronald exists. When she ruins an expensive outfit of her mother's, Ronald offers the $1,000 needed to replace it, if she will pretend to date him for one month. Although skeptical about Ronald's plan, Cindy agrees, and her "new boyfriend" turns out to be right about what he thinks dating Cindy will do for him -- he becomes accepted by the school's snobs because of his association with one of their own. At least, for a while. Originally titled "Boy Rents Girl," Can't Buy Me Love (1987) was the first production launched by former studio executive Thom Mount after leaving his high-profile post. His company went on to produce weightier material such as Bull Durham (1988), The Indian Runner (1991), and Natural Born Killers (1994). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

General Voting Public (probably a little older more conservative demographic)
Logo should be 2 color (most likely blue and red) with NO gradients, drop shadows, or shading. Must be simple and VERY easy to read. The BEST designs will incorporate an unborn baby or something symbolic like that. In truth, we are looking for something that is pretty obvious and gets the point accross quickly. We already have many Vote Pro Life items but want something updated and better designed (I designed the current ones - and I am not a particularly good designer).
The format needs to be longer (horizontal) rather than taller so we can make it work on bumper-stickers and yard-signs. Something like a 1:2 ratio.

I know you're all busy fracking that poll, but this is relevant. It's all about the oil, and Charles Pierce always puts it so well.
As we await the decision on whether or not TransCanada will get to complete the northern leg of our old friend, the Keystone XL pipeline, the continent-spanning death-funnel aimed at transporting the world's dirtiest fossil fuel from the poisoned moonscape of Alberta down the spine of North America to Texas, where what already hasn't spilled out and killed ducks and bunny rabbits — and the agricultural economy of half the country — will be put on ships and sent out to the rest of the world, we should check to see how the pipeline system is working elsewhere.
It's not working so well.
A Northern Alberta pipeline sprung a little leak. A leak that spewed 9.5 million liters of waste water into Canadian wetlands. A spokesman for the company running the pipeline, Texas-based Apache Corp. (do you Canadians know you've got fucking Texas oilmen running loose in your backyard, with boldly named racist companies?), said it was just "salty water" with "trace amounts" of oil. Right. Do you believe him?
The substance is the inky black colour of oil, and the treetops are brown. Across a broad expanse of northern Alberta muskeg, the landscape is dead. It has been poisoned by a huge spill of 9.5 million litres of toxic waste from an oil and gas operation in northern Alberta, the third major leak in a region whose residents are now questioning whether enough is being done to maintain aging energy infrastructure.
"Trace amounts". OK.
"Every plant and tree died" in the area touched by the spill, said James Ahnassay, chief of the Dene Tha First Nation, whose members run traplines in an area that has seen oil and gas development since the 1950s.
Oh. Well that sounds…innocuous.
This is where capitalism fails, among many other places. Look to the future: as gas and oil prices steadily climb, there will be more and more incentive to unscrupulous people to profit at the land's expense, and there's nothing to stop them. Furthermore, there will always be lots of short-sighted people who will see only dollar signs and easy comfort, who will chant "drill baby drill" and enable the looters. And then someday we get to live in the wreckage.
Somebody has to actually reckon the cost and say simply, "no." Even if it discomfits a few Texans.

Dead Rising 3 Trailer: Zombies a Go-Go
In just three days, the Xbox One will launch. With it comes a handful of exclusive titles, but the one everyone's got their eye on is Capcom's Dead Rising 3.
While the trailer above may not have a whole lot new to offer, it certainly sets the mood for a new adventure in the world of Dead Rising. Set ten years after the events of Dead Rising 2, this next-gen sequel features a new protagonist in Nick, trying to escape from Los Perdidos, a replica L.A. Each of the sequels has progressively gotten larger in scale, but at least this time around you'll have a multiple vehicles to try and traverse the zombie wastes and dispatch the undead.
Enjoy this latest trailer, and get hype for after party on Nov. 22.

On Wednesday, we linked to an article by Dave Curtis of the Orlando Sentinel that detailed legal problems involving several members of the defending national champion Florida Gators. Unfortunately, that article contained an error, and Curtis has written about the correction on his blog. Here is the text of Curtis' blog entry:
"In case you missed it, I made an error in Wednesday's story about discipline and the UF football team. The correction, which dealt with Gator rising junior Jonathan Phillips, ran in Thursday's editions of the Orlando Sentinel and Friday's editions of the Sun-Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale. Here's the correction that ran in the paper:
"The continuation of an article on Page D5 of Wednesday's Sports section about legal problems that University of Florida football players have faced this year incorrectly included a player who did not face such problems. Gators kicker Jonathan Phillips has not faced any legal issues."

3/4 cup water
Sugar, to taste
Salt, to taste
Spice Paste:
1 tablespoon oil

3/4-inch galangal, sliced
4 cloves garlic, peeled
3 shallots, peeled
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
salt and sugar to taste
Marinate the beef pieces with the Marinade overnight. Keep in the refrigerator.
Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce:
Extract the juice from the tamarind pulp, discard the pulps. Blend the Spice Paste ingredients into a smooth paste. Add some water if needed.
Heat up the oil in a pan, stir-fry the spice paste until fragrant, turn the heat to medium-high and continue cooking until the oil slightly separates.
Add in the tamarind juice, peanuts, water, stir well and bring it to a quick boil. Cover the pan, turn the heat to low and simmer for another 5-10 minutes. Add sugar and salt sugar to taste. Dish out and set aside.
Making and Cooking Beef Satay:

Beef Satay
Beef Satay – beef is marinated overnight with spices, skewed to satay and grilled. Best beef satay recipe with spicy peanut sauce.
Satay is probably Malaysia's "King of Street Food." Satay such as beef satay and chicken satay are well loved by many people.
Satay is perfect as an appetizer.
The skewered meat never fails to impress, especially for those people who have never tried Malaysian street food.
Serve the beef satay with a spicy peanut sauce and you have the most amazing tasting skewered meat ever, with a flavor so complex and deep that you want more with each bite.
Anyway, here is my easy, authentic, and super delicious beef satay recipe, with a spicy peanut sauce for dipping.
Serve the beef satay with some onion and cucumber.
Take some cucumber and onion after each bite of the beef satay to refresh your palate.
Trust me, it's the most amazing combinations ever.

Good things last even longer when you take care of them. Here's how you can take better care of your Sezra Home furniture.
Marble is a porous material with an open surface that needs protection, and any spilled liquids should be wiped off immediately to avoid stains.
Before delivery we give it a protective layer of silicone wax which reduces the risk of liquids penetrating the marble. However, oily liquids will penetrate the surface more rapidly than water based liquids. Since the marble is influenced by heat and might, in the worst case, crack, you need to protect the surface by using coasters.General care instructions for marble:

Lolo, Montana Man Pleads Not Guilty to Sexually Abusing 6 Year Old Girl
A 57-year-old Lolo man has pleaded not guilty to sexually abusing a 6-year-old girl.
The Missoulian reports Danny Wayne Johnston entered his plea Tuesday in Missoula County District Court to two counts of sexual intercourse without consent.
Charging documents say the girl told her mother and interviewers at the First Step program for victims of sexual assault that Johnston made her perform oral sex on him twice.
The documents say Johnston claimed the girl was the aggressor.
Judge Karen Townsend denied a request from public defender Steven Scott to lower the construction worker's bail from $200,000 to $30,000.
Assistant Chief Deputy County Attorney Jennifer Clark asked the judge to keep the bail amount because Johnston violated his probation on a 2009 conviction of felony DUI.

School of Archaeological and Forensic Sciences
The University of Bradford uniquely integrates Archaeological Sciences, Biological Anthropology and Forensic Sciences and shares an interest in the study of people and their environments in the present and the past.
Our approach is profoundly multidisciplinary, bridging the sciences and the humanities.
Archaeology is a broadly-based discipline that uses material evidence to gain insights into earlier societies. For that, archaeologists need experience in many different fields of study.
At Bradford you will find that archaeology is global in its scope.
It is at the cutting edge of research as frequent press, radio and television reports testify. But, our concern is also about the next generation of archaeologists, which means that we focus on both the practical and intellectual skills needed when you apply for jobs.
Bradford has an excellent employment record especially for students doing the placement year, and we are one of the leading universities for students obtaining employment within six months of graduation.

Forensic Science
We have been teaching forensic science at Bradford since 1993 – one of the first three universities to offer this subject in the UK.
Our teaching is led by staff who have direct crime scene and court experience.
We have specialised facilities including a Crime Scene Facility, Forensic Examination Laboratories, and a wealth of innovative teaching space.

Perfect as You Are
In general, I like the concept of the "It Gets Better Program." If it achieves what it sets out to do--prevent young LGBTQ youth from committing suicide, because of the bullying they're subjected to at school and the resulting isolation and worthlessness they feel--then it's a success.
But, as I wrote in a post titled "Make It Better Project," published on October 19, 2010, I believe we owe our young people so much more than hope for some distant point in the future--a future that, at their age, seems so far away. We have to give them something right now, something they can use to get through the day-in and day-out of being tormented (since none of us have figured out a way to stop bullying altogether).
When I was young, suffering from being the first child of parents who were children themselves, and from incessant bullying in grade school for being different in a way I didn't understand, I wish someone had taken me firmly by the shoulders, looked me squarely in the face, and said this:
"You are okay just the way you are. The rest of the world is down on you for being different--from your parents, to the kids at school, to the Catholic church--and you're understandably scared as hell about what that means for your life and your future. But don't be. Don't buy into any of it.
"Maybe there's nothing you can do right now to stop the teasing and the hurtful and ignorant things people say, because you have no control over that. But what you do have control over is how you feel about yourself as a result of what they say and do.
Sure, it takes a strong person to rise above, but I know you have that strength. I know you have that strength because I know you're special and wonderful and beautiful and fantastic and sacred. And do not allow anyone to make you think differently.
"Love yourself. Love everything about yourself. Know how important you are. Know how valuable you are. Know how much you mean to the people who love you and to the world. Be confident in the knowledge there's nothing wrong with you, you are just the way you're meant to be.
"If you are not strong, those who want you to hate yourself will win. They will see you're weak. They will take control. They will rule your mind. They will destroy your spirit. What they do to you will have a negative effect on your life for years, even decades, after you graduate from high school. And, long after their bullying ends, you will continue to bully yourself, having accepted, in one way or another, what they said as the truth.
"But they must not win. They are no better than you are, even though they might come across that way. Nor do they know any better than you do--not about this, not about who and what you are.
"I'm not here to talk about the future, even though it will be so much better than you can imagine. Rather, I'm here to talk about right now, because you need help right now. You can do this. You must know you have it in you to be strong, as strong as you need to be to get through this.
"You must not let yourself down. You must not give in to the negativity, no matter what it looks like, no matter what form it takes. Draw strength from that core within you that knows you are good. Your character is being tested, but you are stronger than anything thrown at you. And I know you can do this.
"I repeat, above everything else, love yourself, because that's the greatest lesson you will ever learn. Know in your heart you are worthy and don't deserve any of the abuse you're going through. Believe in yourself. Honor yourself. Respect yourself. Have faith in yourself.
"You can do it. You will overcome."
Today, if you are a young person being tormented because you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, or questioning your sexuality, I'm taking you firmly by the shoulders. I'm looking you squarely in the eyes. And I'm telling you what you need to hear from someone who knows. Someone who's been there, who survived everything grade school can throw at you, who came out the other side.
Please, please listen to what I have to say. Hold your head high. Be proud of who and what you are. Go confidently forward in the knowledge nothing is wrong with you, you don't deserve what you're going through, and you are so much better than everything you have to endure.
You are perfect just as you are.

I love this book, but I think the videos are what are so powerful. I think they did the book for kids who may have access to it at a library, but not have internet (is that possible these days? I guess in some families, computers are pretty closely monitored....) I know he's gotten a few emails from kids who've said that the videos are a life line, because they live in families where they tried to come out, and were basically told to deny it or be kicked out. It's hard to believe that any parent would do that to their own child, but obviously it's still happening in places in the States, so maybe this is what will get them through that period of time. I agree, it's tough to say, "wait it out," but sadly, some kids live in families or communities where that's the only choice. But yeah, if you could find every one of those kids and say, "you are worthy," wouldn't that be great?ReplyDelete
So good to hear from you again, Sarah. (And I should have said this in my previous comment--I missed you, too. A lot.)ReplyDelete
When Dan came out with his Project, I watched a number of the videos and was deeply moved by them. What a wonderful way to reach out to so many LGBTQ youth and to attempt to support them at a time when they need it most.
But I guess I'm a little old school. Initially, I asked myself why Dan captured some of the videos in a book when videos are more graphic and immediate, but I see why now.
I've really enjoyed the connection between the book in my hands and reading what people have to say about their experiences being bullied, in many cases attempting suicide, and surviving to realize how much better their lives get. I LOVE books anyway. They have been more faithful friends to me than many, many human beings I've known.
Your last line above really hits home. And, of course, that's exactly why I wrote this post. Every last one of those kids needs to know he or she is worthy. I pray I've written something here that will be all the proof someone needs to believe that, to get through the hell of school, and to look forward to a brighter future.
Once again, my sincere thanks for your comment. It's great to resume our conversation.
Hi, I'm here by way of Heather Chomos. I loved reading your shoulder-grabbing heartfelt comments. My son, who is now 43, was unceasingly bullied because he is dyslexic---not really a comparison to your case---but by some wild chance, I thought to tell him the things you're saying now, and as an anti-bullying technique, I can affirm that it works.ReplyDelete
Like you, I've been moved to tears by some of the It Gets Better video. That promise of hope must be life-changing for some people, and the medium is wonderful, graphic and heartstring-grabbing. I've yet to read the book, but I know I will, and can imagine that for some people books are a more useful medium. I'm a booklover of some repute, so it pains me to say I haven't read the book yet, but I feel so uplifted by the videos, so hopeful that change---real change---is coming that I proselytize about the videos to anybody that will listen.
I wish you would post this blog to PFLAG Canada "My Stories". It is truly inspiring and the obvious next step in positive action.
And I'll be back.
Lorna, I'm so happy to hear from you, and to read that you believe my "shoulder grabbing heartfelt comments" could work. I believe they could, too. I really think if someone had said them to me, especially early on, they would have made an enormous difference in how I felt about myself and how I processed all the bullying I took. In that sense, they would have shaped my future so much for the better, which was the whole point why I wrote them--to help someone else going through the same things I did.ReplyDelete
I'll be sure to thank Heather for making you aware of my blog, and I will certainly consider contributing in some way to PFLAG Canada "My Stories." That's a great idea I hadn't considered.
Many thanks for stopping by and for leaving a wonderful comment. I hope to have an on-going conversation with you for some time to come. And thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it.
By way of update, Lorna, I submitted the above (with a few edits) to PFLAG Canada today. I truly hope it helps someone who reads it, both here and on the PFLAG website.ReplyDelete
Thanks for suggesting I submit it.

Red White & Blues Festival
About the Event:
We are looking for a logo for an Australian based Wine and Food Event called the Red White & Blues Festival.
The Festival will be set at a seaside Park in Cronulla, one of Sydney's beach suburbs and the attractions will include a wide selection of Australian wines, gourmet food and a fabulous lineup of live jazz and blues music acts.
The Fair runs over 2 days and attracts Wine, Food and Music lovers who 'graze' around the 60 or so stalls of Wine, Food and gourmet produce and will picnic on the lawns while enjoying the live music.
Red White & Blues is set to become an annual event and this year is taking over from an existing Wine & Food Fair known as "Jazz & Shiraz" which has run for about the past 6 years. So although this is a "new" event it already has an existing audience.
Wine Food and Music lovers.
People who enjoy the good things in life
Age 30+
Casual, relaxed, sophisticated but not serious!
We need a logo for use on the website and in Press ads. It will also appear on posters, banners and fliers.
This is an Australian event, so we aren't looking to have any references to the United States flag or any other "red white and blue" stereotypes. The Red and White clearly refer to Wine and the Blues is Blues music.
Although this particular Event is being held by the sea, it won't necessarily always be, so if creating a visual reference to the seaside (waves etc.) then the logo should be designed such that it can stand alone without the 'seaside' element(s).
The mood/tone of the event is casual but sophisticated – not too serious. It's all about enjoying some of the good things in life in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Then he had a week in one afternoon at Yankee Stadium and never looked back. While the Mets floundered in September, Delgado sizzled, hitting .340 with eight homers and 22 RBI. He finished the season batting .271 with 38 homers and 115 RBI.
Those numbers warrant a return for 2009.
"I'd like to be back. I like this group of guys," Delgado said. "I think they're a great team. There's a lot of talent here. In my stage, you don't want to be bouncing around any more than you absolutely have to. The decision is in their hands."
Since the Mets would pay Delgado $4 million regardless because of the buyout, it's really only an $8 million investment they would be making. That's not much in the grand scheme of things. The Mets have five days after the World Series to make a decision.
Delgado said he'd like to play several more years, but considering his off-year in 2007 and how long it took for him to get started this season, the Mets would be wise to make him earn the extension and not do anything until the end of 2009.
Should the Mets go the buyout route, there aren't many appealing options in the free-agent market. Here's what's available:
Rich Aurilia (37)
Hank Blalock (28) – $6.2MM club option for '09 with a $0.25MM buyout
Sean Casey (34)
Tony Clark (37)
Carlos Delgado (37) – $12MM club option for '09 with a $4MM buyout
Nomar Garciaparra (35)
Jason Giambi (38) – $22MM club option for '09 with a $5MM buyout
Wes Helms (33) – $3.75MM club option for '09 with a $0.75MM buyout
Eric Hinske (31)
Doug Mientkiewicz (35)
Kevin Millar (37)
Richie Sexson (34)
Mark Teixeira (29)
Daryle Ward (34)
Should the Mets bring him back or not?
