TAMPA, Fla. - Rep. Paul Ryan electrified the Republican National Convention on Wednesday with a blistering indictment of President Barack Obama as he accepted the GOP's nomination for vice president.
Before a rapt audience in the Tampa Bay Times Forum, Ryan delivered a speech filled with red-meat attacks on the president's record and mixed in humor, personal anecdotes and praise for Mitt Romney's record.
Obama, he said, had failed on jobs and failed to tackle the deficit.
"College graduates should not have to live out their 20s in their childhood bedrooms, staring up at fading Obama posters and wondering when they can move out and get going with life," he ripped to roars from the crowd. "Everyone who feels stuck in the Obama economy is right to focus on the here and now. And I hope you understand this too, if you're feeling left out or passed by: You have not failed, your leaders have failed you."
Ryan issued an urgent call to deal with the nation's almost $16 trillion national debt and accused the president of doing nothing about it.
"They've run out of ideas. Their moment came and went. Fear and division are all they've got left," he said.
Ryan said it's time Obama stopped making excuses.
"It all started off with stirring speeches, Greek columns, the thrill of something new. Now all that's left is a presidency adrift. ... The man assumed office almost four years ago - isn't it about time he assumed responsibility?"
Obama, Ryan argued, failed to make job creation his priority and wasted money on the stimulus.
But some of his harshest attacks came on the issue of health care, where he accused the president of engineering a costly takeover that goes against the nation's founding principles.
"Obamacare comes to more than 2,000 pages of rules, mandates, taxes, fees and fines that have no place in a free country," Ryan said.
And Ryan criticized Obama for siphoning money from Medicare to pay for it - repeating the Romney-Ryan campaign's counterpunch on the attacks Democrats have repeated for the last year on Ryan's own budget blueprint to remake and slash the long-term costs of the program.
"You see, even with all the hidden taxes to pay for the health care takeover, even with new taxes on nearly a million small businesses, the planners in Washington still didn't have enough money. They needed more. They needed hundreds of billions more. So, they just took it all away from Medicare. ...The greatest threat to Medicare is Obamacare, and we're going to stop it."
Ryan also sought to personalize his connection with the program in an effort to turn away Democratic charges that he wants to end it.
"In Congress, when they take out the heavy books and wall charts about Medicare, my thoughts go back to a house on Garfield Street in Janesville. My wonderful grandma, Janet, had Alzheimer's and moved in with Mom and me. Though she felt lost at times, we did all the little things that made her feel loved," he said.
"We had help from Medicare, and it was there, just like it's there for my mom today. Medicare is a promise, and we will honor it. A Romney-Ryan administration will protect and strengthen Medicare, for my mom's generation, for my generation and for my kids and yours."
Posturing on Medicare, he said, would no longer work.
"Mitt Romney and I know the difference between protecting a program and raiding it. Ladies and gentlemen, our nation needs this debate. We want this debate. We will win this debate."
And he accused Obama of doing nothing in the face of the mounting debt.
"They have no answer to this simple reality: We need to stop spending money we don't have. ... And I'm going to level with you: We don't have that much time. But if we are serious and smart and we lead, we can do this."
Ryan also spoke warmly of Romney, praising his experience in business and with the Olympics and his tenure as governor of Massachusetts. But he had the audience laughing when he joked about their different iPod playlists.
"There are the songs on his iPod, which I've heard on the campaign bus and on many hotel elevators. He actually urged me to play some of these songs at campaign rallies. I said, 'I hope it's not a deal-breaker Mitt, but my playlist starts with AC/DC, and ends with Zeppelin,'" Ryan said.
But Ryan said that while they are different people from different backgrounds, he and Romney share a vision for the future and a commitment to face up to the nation's problems.
"We will not duck the tough issues, we will lead," he said. "We will not spend four years blaming others, we will take responsibility. We will not try to replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles.
The work ahead will be hard. These times demand the best of us - all of us, but we can do this. Together, we can do this."

"RUDIMENTARY PENI are a band so fucking good that no one will ever understand them; I doubt they understand themselves." - Steve Albini, 1993
We can almost hear you mumble "about bloody time too!". Yes, it's taken a while. These Rudimentary Peni reissues have to be perfect you know, so sometimes we have to take our time. This one involved going back to the cutting room many times over to get the sound of the vinyl exactly right. We don't want to mess about, we want top quality.
Death Church was recorded in two days at our very own Southern Studios in April of 1983. It was the band's first long-player, following on the heels of their self-titled EP in 1981 and the Farce single on Crass Records in 1982. Arguably the most beloved album album of the band's many fans, Death Church wore its contents on its sleeve, quite literally. The intricate line drawings of vocalist/guitarist Nick Blinko are dark visions of madness, religion and death...all of which are to be found in the lyrics within. Musically, Death Church has been embraced and claimed by every fringe musical niche of its time... it's the album that brought together the death rockers, anarcho-punks, peace punks, hardcore punks, proto-metallers and art rockers.
Our vinyl reissue includes a faithful reproduction of the iconic fold-out poster sleeve from the original issue. Also included is the original insert (okay we changed a couple of minor things - see if you can spot them) and a card with a code entitling the purchaser to a free MP3 download. The LP is pressed on 180gm black wax. The CD version is in a gatefold wallet and includes a lyric insert.
We also have a t-shirt available which features the cover art on the front and the band logo on the back.
Death Church is available to pre-order from the Southern web shop now.

Living in the New Forest
The New Forest District Council is one of the largest non-unitary authorities in the UK, covering approximately 260 sq. miles. There are 172,000 residents and 16 million visitors annually. The forest area was designated a National Park in 2005 which is testament to the outstanding natural beauty of this part of the world.
Unusually for a National Park, almost half of the land is in public ownership.
Outside of the National Park area there are a number of large towns and villages, as well as some beautiful beaches. Southampton, Winchester and Bournemouth are on our doorstep offering good shopping and recreational facilities. There are also great schools and colleges within the New Forest area. All in all we think this is an excellent place to live.

17 October 2013
Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN New Zealand, the world's original international IRONMAN race, will boast record numbers when it celebrates its 30th anniversary in Taupo next March.
Organisers have closed their books with 2000 entries received, more than 300 up on the previous highest number of entries and they expect around 1700 to line up for Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN New Zealand on Saturday 1 March.
There are internationals from a record 58 nations and for the first time, more than 1000 New Zealanders have entered, while the tally of 487 females is the highest in the event's history.
Organisers are thrilled with the response.
"It is a fitting celebration of 30 years of Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN New Zealand and of the oldest international IRONMAN race in the world," said Event Director, Janette Blyth.
"Because of its unique place in history, IRONMAN New Zealand has long been on the list of must-do IRONMAN events. Surveys show that we have been one of the most popular of the 30 inernational IRONMAN races with a major drawcard being the spectacular freshwater lake swim and the hospitality of the people of Taupo."
The race, which began on Auckland's eastern bays in 1985, moved to Taupo in 1999. There were 220 Kiwis in the final year in Auckland and 286 in the first year in Taupo out of a field of 790.
"Over the years we have worked hard with triathlon events at grass roots level around the country to encourage and support people in taking up the sport to the stage when the Kiwi numbers are almost four-fold that of the first year in Taupo.
"IRONMAN is also seen as one of the great sporting challenges that anyone can achieve with hard work and dedication. Become an IRONMAN and there's nothing you cannot achieve. It can be a life-changing achievement.
"More than half the New Zealanders who have entered will be competing in their first IRONMAN and that represents a fantastic growth for triathlon in this country."
Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN New Zealand continues to prove popular with internationals, with more than 30,000 participants and their supporters venturing to this country over the years. Leading the way next year are 320 entered from Australia, 196 from USA and 68 from Japan while there are single entries from the likes of Bahrain, Guatemala, Lebanon and Tonga.
There are also five originals from the first race in 1985 back to compete in the 30th anniversary.
Organisers expect to begin confirmation of professionals in the coming weeks following last weekend's IRONMAN World Championship in Hawaii.

Check out our review: 'Breaking Bad' Series Finale Review & Analysis: Look Upon My Work
The moment has come: Breaking Bad has concluded its amazing run and for those that have been following the various exploits of Walter White over the past five seasons is now left to ponder the inevitable outcome of one of the most obsessed over programs in this golden age of television.
The word "inevitable" is telling, not only because series creator Vince Gilligan and other members of the Breaking Bad crew have made that word the description of choice for the series finale, but also because, as a television program and cherished part of the larger pop culture universe, the series has had one of the most precise and tightly-woven narratives the medium has ever seen. As season 5 got under way, there were few among us who didn't agree this story of a man sometimes called Heisenberg could only be headed in one particular direction. But now it has happened, the end has come and the credits have rolled on Jesse, Skyler, Marie and everyone else caught up in Walter's destructive and deadly life's work.
As the discussion now turns to the events of 'Felina' and the show's final moments, it's time for you to open up with your thoughts on the finale and the series as a whole. Where do you think Breaking Bad lands in the pantheon of great television? Tell us in the comments below while you wait for our review.

Breaking Bad aired January 20, 2008 – September 29, 2013 on AMC

Talent, technology and tolerance factor into economic development
PSU President Wim Wiewel talks about higher education at the Columbia Forum
Posted: Wednesday, January 19, 2011 11:30 am | Updated: 9:05 am, Tue Feb 1, 2011.
By Deeda Schroeder | The Daily Astorian
What makes cities succeed today?
In urban areas, encouraging economic development requires just the right blend and Portland State University President Wim Wiewel likes the way he's come to look at it.
"Talent, technology and tolerance" is the formula, he said.
Portland and Seattle have it – and Astoria can too.
Wiewel shared his perspectives on economic development, education in Oregon and rationale behind the possible reform of the state's university system Tuesday night at the Columbia Forum.
The sociologist and urban planner, who is originally from the Netherlands, took the president's job at PSU in 2008.
Weiwel (pronounced "VEE-Vell") explained the important role of higher education in economic development in smaller cities like Astoria. Rather than having a dearth of natural resources, customers or suppliers, success stories have a clustering of people with skills.
It's an idea Wiewel borrowed from Richard Florida, professor and author of "The Rising of the Creative Class."
"A key factor is a common labor pool of talented workers," he said.
They tend to be driven to innovate and create, and have access to the capitol needed to make those ideas real, Wiewel added.
"It's new stuff that's going to be worth the most," he said.
Developing or tapping into a stream of people with these characteristics – and retaining them – is where higher education comes in. College campuses breed an environment where the unfamiliar is cultivated into an idea that's been tested and is ready to use.
"It's not enough to have talent, or technology, you have to have tolerance," Wiewel said.
Getting a college degree gives people grow as individuals as well, adding significantly to their earning capacity in later life, he said.
"In Oregon, we are really going the wrong way."
Here, older adults are increasingly more educated than the younger ones, Wiewel explained. About 33 percent of those aged 55 to 64 have a bachelor's degree or higher while 27 percent of 25- to 34-year-olds fall in that category.
"It's unprecedented to have the younger generation less educated," he added.
That's why it's a goal of the Oregon University System to see a "40-40-20" blend in the state, where 40 percent have a bachelor's degree, another 40 have had some college and the remainder have graduated from high school, Wiewel said.
In Astoria, it's closer to 20-20-30 – not adding up to a 100 percent total – because the graduation rate shifts between 75 and 80 percent.
He encouraged locals to strengthen technology and focus on developing more high value jobs.
"The challenges you face are the same as many places in Oregon," he said.
The Oregon University System is looking to restructure itself to be able to help the state and its students overcome those hurdles, Wiewel said.
Now, compared to other states around the country, Oregon is close to the bottom in subsidies for higher education but near the top in how it "micromanages" the institutions' spending, he explained. Restructuring would give the schools more stability and give them a greater ability to control costs and revenues, Wiewel said.
Before Portland State, Wiewel was the provost and senior vice president of Academic Affairs at the University of Baltimore. Between 1979 and 2004, Wiewel was with the University of Illinois at Chicago, where he served as dean of the College of Business Administration. While there, he also served as dean of the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs. He holds degrees in sociology and urban planning from the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and a Ph.D. in sociology from Northwestern University.
Weiwel fielded audience questions about how to inspire people to study the subjects that are losing popularity in this country.
"As a sociologist, how do you inspire people to go into science and engineering?" asked Astoria resident Larry Jordan.
Weiwel shared a story about a professor that made a lasting impression on him, and said people look for moments like those that "set you on fire."
Knappa school board member Ed Johnson asked, "What can be done to turn people on to the importance of education?"
Weiwel answered that the connection between education and jobs must be stressed.
"You will get a job if you go to school," he said. College doesn't have to be outrageously expensive, either, Wiewel added.

Buying a home in Spain: Dealing with new property defects
Sometimes new property is not all that we hoped for. There can be teething troubles as the new build settles in. These might just be to do with the finish or, more worryingly, they might on occasion be structural. Either way, the good news is that there are laws in Spain to protect the new property purchaser.

Biological Anthropology is the study of the evolution and ecology of humans and other primates, grounded in an understanding of evolutionary history and extending to applied subjects such as conservation and human development.
The UCL Biological Anthropology section is one of the largest groups of academics in Europe that focuses on these subjects. We conduct research on several related themes that also form the core of our teaching programmes:
Human Ecology
- The interaction between conservation and human development, and rangeland use in sub-Saharan Africa (Katherine Homewood)
- Human ecology and aquatic resource use in Asia, with application to the management of natural resources (Caroline Garaway)
- The social dimensions of human-environment relationships, impacts of conservation on well-being, and the governance of pastoralist systems (Emily Woodhouse)
Evolutionary Anthropology
- Human evolutionary ecology, including life history, cultural evolution and kinship, currently including studies in Africa and China (Ruth Mace)
- Primate ecology, behaviour, and conservation, with current fieldwork focused on the Gashaka Primate Project in Nigeria (Volker Sommer)
- Primate origins and evolution, including functional anatomy and the interaction of primate evolution with environmental change (Christophe Soligo)
- Evolution of human phenotypic and behavioural diversity, life history theory, hunter-gatherer studies (Andrea Migliano)
- Demography of small scale societies, modelling of language diversification, application of new quantitative methods to evolutionary anthropology (Lucio Vinicius)
Palaeoanthropology, human evolution, taxonomy, phylogeny and evolutionary scenario of the Pleistocene hominins, currently including fieldwork and research at the Atapuerca sites and China (Maria Martinon-Torres)
We run a weekly seminar series that cuts across all of these research areas, as well as three MSc programmes: the MSc in Anthropology, Environment and Development, the MSc in Human Evolution and Behaviour, and the MSc in Palaeoanthropology and Palaeolithic Archaeology (with the Institute of Archaeology).
Biological Anthropology currently has two large grants including an ERC grant on the evolution of cultural norms and a Leverhulme programme grant on Hunter-Gatherer Resilience. It also has close ties to the Centre for Genetic Anthropology and others in GEE at UCL and was a founding member of London Evolutionary Research Network (LERN). Our other teaching and research links with institutions and organisations around London, include the Natural History Museum, the Institute of Zoology and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Our numerous international collaborations include projects with the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig and with the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.

NORTH CONWAY – At a recent meeting, the Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees voted to pursue membership in the MaineHealth system. Memorial is the community hospital serving New Hampshire's Mount Washington Valley.
MaineHealth is a not—for—profit health care system based in Portland. Its members include Maine Medical Center and 11 other hospitals and health—related organizations in Maine.
"Our decision to pursue this affiliation followed an extensive review," said Gene Bergoffen, chair of the hospital's board. "Our goal in pursuing it is to provide a secure future for the communities we serve, and for the hospital, its physicians and employees well into the future."
Membership in the MaineHealth system, which will make MaineHealth the parent organization of Memorial Hospital, will allow the hospital to strategically partner with MaineHealth and its members to improve health care in the Mount Washington Valley.
"We believe that the MaineHealth system is a good fit for Memorial and especially our community, said Scott McKinnon, Memorial's president and CEO.
"MaineHealth is ranked among the nation's top 100 integrated health delivery networks, and is ranked #4 in New England. The vast majority of our outpatient referrals, and 89% of our inpatient referrals to another health facility, go to a MaineHealth organization, primarily Maine Medical Center," McKinnon said.
Memorial Hospital approached MaineHealth about a potential membership and has been discussing it for more than a year. Working out the final details, including due diligence and regulatory approvals, will take about a year. This includes a review and approval by the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office.
"We're excited at the possibility of Memorial Hospital joining MaineHealth, said Bill Caron, Jr., president of MaineHealth. "Memorial Hospital is a high quality community hospital whose board and leadership share our values and commitment to health promotion and disease prevention. Membership in MaineHealth will help Memorial Hospital maximize its delivery of care to patients, realize efficiencies and cost savings and help to strengthen healthcare delivery in the Mount Washington Valley."
MaineHealth system membership benefits
Under the proposed arrangement, Memorial Hospital remains a not—for—profit organization providing the same basic programs and services and with its assets, including charitable endowments, remaining in the Valley. Memorial's Board of Trustees continues its community oversight role, establishing strategy and setting direction for the hospital. Scott McKinnon, Memorial's CEO, continues to run the day—to—day operations of the hospital. The hospital's relationships with its physicians, patient care staff and its employees will remain largely the same.
The MaineHealth brand will become a secondary brand of Memorial Hospital. MaineHealth will help Memorial further develop community health and wellness programs. Memorial's CEO, board members and physicians will be participants on MaineHealth boards and committees setting system direction. MaineHealth's administration will have input on Memorial's operations, for example, budgeting, maintenance of local services and CEO selection.
The proposed arrangement has many potential benefits for health care in the Mount Washington Valley, including access to MaineHealth's clinical technology such as telemedicine and integrated patient electronic medical records. Memorial will be better positioned for more specialty care delivered locally, potentially including clinical services like oncology, breast health and cardiac care.
MaineHealth will provide better access to continuing medical education for Memorial's staff and an improved ability to recruit and retain physicians.
Why now?
"Memorial's Board of Trustees is proud of the fact that we are a financially strong organization that enjoys a respected position in the communities we serve," said Bergoffen. "At a time in which many community hospitals find themselves in a financially untenable position, we've achieved a positive operating margin over the last few years."
"In the ever more complex and fast changing health care environment we face today, we feel strongly that Memorial can't continue to go it alone," Bergoffen said. "That's why we've selected a strong partner that we believe is the best fit for Memorial strategically, and one that shares our values."
"MaineHealth is not—for—profit and it believes that by working together, the communities its members serve can become the healthiest in America," added McKinnon. "We share this aspiration with them."
Memorial Hospital plans to hold community information meetings to outline what the proposed partnership with MaineHealth involves and answer any questions about it.

A's get Dunn from White Sox to boost offense
ANAHEIM -- Four games out of first place and struggling to gain any offensive momentum in a troubling August, the A's reeled in veteran power hitter Adam Dunn from the White Sox early Sunday morning to cap off a frenzied trade season.
The A's sent right-hander Nolan Sanburn, their No. 12-ranked prospect according to MLB.com, to Chicago in the deal. The White Sox are also packaging cash with Dunn to help offset his remaining salary.View Full Game Coverage
ANAHEIM -- Four games out of first place and struggling to gain any offensive momentum in a troubling August, the A's reeled in veteran power hitter Adam Dunn from the White Sox early Sunday morning to cap off a frenzied trade season.
The A's sent right-hander Nolan Sanburn, their No. 12-ranked prospect according to MLB.com, to Chicago in the deal. The White Sox are also packaging cash with Dunn to help offset his remaining salary.View Full Game Coverage
The lefty-swinging Dunn has long been viewed by the A's as "a guy that fit our offensive mind" for his homers and walks, said assistant general manager David Forst. Dunn will join the A's in Oakland on Monday for the start of a six-game homestand against the Mariners and Astros, and he will primarily DH against right-handers, as John Jaso did before hitting the 7-day concussion DL.
The 34-year-old Dunn is in the final season of a four-year, $56 million deal and batting .220 with 20 homers, 54 RBIs and a .340 on-base percentage.
"Look, we're trying to do whatever we can to get some offense going here," said manager Bob Melvin, who had Dunn briefly in Arizona in 2008. "The guy has a history of hitting homers and getting on base. I know he's excited about being with us."
"I'm going to a place with a chance to not only get into the postseason but also have a legitimate chance to get a ring," Dunn told White Sox reporters Sunday. "Those chances don't come too often, so I'm very appreciative of the way it was handled and for [general manager] Rick [Hahn] and them to give me an opportunity to do it."
The A's spent July bolstering their rotation, first landing Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel before pulling off a stunner of a trade that brought them Jon Lester. But in getting one of the game's best pitchers, they had to part with one of the game's most feared hitters in Yoenis Cespedes.
The A's are 12-16 since the trade, and Cespedes' absence has magnified the club's recent offensive woes, which continued Saturday in a third consecutive loss to the first-place Angels. They've been shut out in two consecutive games and four times this month, entering Sunday with a 22-inning scoreless streak.
But the downfall began even before Cespedes departed, which is why the front office does not care to make any correlations between the trade and the club's recent play. The A's went 51-30 through the halfway point of the schedule (June 29) but are 27-27 since then, moving from a 5 1/2-game division lead to a four-game deficit.
"Going back to right before the All-Star break, we have not been the same offensive team we were the first three months of the year," said Forst. "Not to say we can't get back to doing that, because there are still a lot of guys in this lineup that have the ability to get on base and drive in runs.
"We're pitching great. We need to support those guys. This is basically the same group that has played well and scored runs before. I don't think this is going to last a whole other month."
Dunn brings 460 career home runs to Oakland, which ranks third most among active players.
"Obviously we've been struggling here offensively for the better part of the month," said Brandon Moss, batting .178 in August. "Dunn has the ability to change the game with one swing, something we haven't done a lot of.
"There are plenty of guys who are .220, .240 hitters that aren't in the lineup to go 2-for-3. They're in the lineup to get on base and drive in runs and hit the ball out of the ballpark, which is what he does."
Dunn welcomes the challenge of helping turn around an anemic A's offense.
"That's a lot of pressure that I want," he said. "It feels literally like Opening Day is tomorrow and it's going to be a completely new start for me."
The move, which had to be approved by Dunn because of his no-trade clause, is just as significant for him as it is for the A's. In 14 seasons, Dunn has yet to experience the playoffs, and his 1,976 games are the most by any active player without a postseason appearance.
The next-highest total is Alex Rios' 1,581 games played, followed by Brian Roberts (1,418), Nick Markakis (1,344) and Edwin Encarnacion (1,180).
"I think that's what's probably really exciting for him at this point, to come in and play meaningful games in September," said Melvin, "and help the team hopefully get to the postseason."
Sanburn, who was the A's second-round Draft pick in 2012, was 3-1 with six saves and a 3.28 ERA in 42 relief appearances for Class A Stockton this season.

As "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" marks its 35th anniversary with a return to theaters for special screenings next week, star William Shatner is celebrating more than his long history as Captain Kirk.
At 86, the stalwart entertainer is busier than ever, starring in a reality series, competing as an equestrian, traveling with his one-man, writing books (his latest is on aging), making movies (including one he wrote) and launching a Twitter campaign to encourage charity and kindness that he calls the Ubuntu Project, referencing the South African concept of common humanity.
"Khan" — which Fathom Entertainment plans to screen at 600 theaters across the country on Sunday and Wednesday — stands out because "all my friends were in it," says Shatner, who talked with The Associated Press about that film and his other creative endeavors. Responses have been edited for clarity and brevity.
AP: How much does "Wrath of Khan" stand out in your career?
Shatner: Well it was a lovely film. I enjoyed doing it. All my friends were in it. It's been a long time. The actors, many of them are now no longer with us, and yet the film stands.
AP: Are you surprised the film still has such life?
Shatner: It's stupefying, really, that people still want to see it. And it's very popular.
AP: You released a book earlier this year about horses. How much time do you spend riding?
Shatner: I've just come back from world championship horse show, where I competed. My wife did, too. We're going away next week to another type of horse show in Las Vegas... Now I'm just finishing up a book on aging... That will be out next year, next spring or winter.
AP: You seem to see the sunny side of your fans on Twitter. How do you manage that?
Shatner: I'll give you one example: A man from a small town, Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, tweets that his son who's autistic will only eat pasta from a carton that has Star Wars stuff on it, but they've run out of the cartons in Nanaimo and can anybody help him. I retweeted that saying, "Let's help this man," and he received thousands of cartons from elsewhere of the food. Plus the Kraft company called and said to the young man, "We want your help in designing a new carton." That singular thing, who knows what affect that will have on an autistic kid? And the kindness of everybody to react to that man will change everybody's character for their lifetime. Multiply that by many, many instances of people seeking help and getting help from being on Twitter... I'm calling it the Ubuntu Project and I want you to feel your humanity by giving something — it could be innocuous, it may be nothing to give $10, but you're exercising your ubuntu.
AP: You've embraced comedic roles later in your career. How intentional was that shift?
Shatner: When I started out in theater in Canada — I had about five years as a professional actor before I came down to the states — I did only light comedy... Then got into serious roles, and my ability to play comedy was shunned to the side there for a while, but I've always thought that the character I'm playing should have a sense of humor about something. Deadly serious is deadly in my opinion.
AP: You also showed a funnier side in "Better Late Than Never," the reality series you did last year with Henry Winkler, George Foreman and Terry Bradshaw.
Shatner: I just came back from six weeks of doing next season. It'll be on in January, I think. (NBC hasn't announced a premiere date.) We went to Europe! We had a lot of fun. A lot of funny things happened.
AP: You're starting another film soon. What can you say about it?
Shatner: It's called "Relic." I wrote the story and a friend of mine wrote the screenplay and we're going to make it in November.

McIlroy not panicking about poor start to the year
Rory McIlroy refused to blame his new Nike clubs after missing the cut at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship but admitted he did need to find the right driver.
After two rounds of 75, leaving him six-over par, the Northern Irishman said that all aspects of his game were off colour and that he would be heading back to the driving range to iron out the problems.
But there was no hint of panic from the 23-year-old, despite hitting five bogeys in his second round.
"All aspects of my game were off," McIlroy told Sky Sports. "I did not drive the ball well. My iron play was not near the standard it usually is. I am struggling with my swing a bit, I am spinning off it and it's coming out of the heel.
"I just need to put in some work on the range. It is the first week [using new clubs], I would not look too much into that. It is more the Indian than the arrow. A few hours on the range [on Saturday] and Sunday and a bit of work will clear a few things up."
McIlroy hit back-to-back birdies at the eighth and ninth to help him to one-over but a poor back nine by his standards saw him slip to three-over for the round. Last year's US PGA Championship winner remained upbeat about his short game, localising his problems to the tee-off.
"I have got to work on few things," he added. "I am happy with the irons, the ball, wedges. I just need to find a driver I am comfortable with. I did not drive the ball at all well and that is a big advantage for me as I do drive the ball well."

Granite Gear Crown V.C. 60

Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $160
Overall, this bag was an excellent fit for me — a lightweight bag which still has a large capacity and excellent suspension. Additionally, the exterior pockets are more than sufficient and come in very handy, and the compression system is effective, as well as being useful for attaching extra gear. All in all, I have no complaints with this bag, and expect it to continue to be my go-to bag for years to come, based on its light weight, versatility and its build quality
- Light weight
- Load transfer
- Expandable capacity
- Build quality
- Compression system
I am 6'4", 200 lbs with about a 19 inch torso, and the regular size fits me very well. I was lucky, in that the bag's sizing is not adjustable, but the bag still fits me like a glove.
The suspension system is very comfortable and effective, I have had no irritated spots and the load carries very well and transfers effectively to the hips. The volume is excellent for a bag in this weight class, and the roll top closure makes this a versatile bag, it can be used for lightweight summer trips when compressed, and can be used for winter trips as well with its tall collar. Additionally, this helps reduce empty space in the bag as a trip goes on, and food is consumed.
However, if you're looking for a big with tons of organization features, this isn't it — it's basically a large sack with 3 pockets on the side. But, for my needs, this is sufficient. An added bonus to the design of this bag is that it is water resistant, and can be easily made effectively waterproof by taping the seams. This is due to the roll top closure, and the pack body being made from silicone impregnated nylon.
This far, I have had 0 problems with durability, the bag looks brand new after many miles and some less than gentle handling. I have used this bag in fairly moderate conditions so far, with a few instances in rain.
So did this pack TRANSFER WEIGHT well to your hip belt? AND was the hip belt in need of more padding? I ask this because the most comfortable UL pack I've found is my Osprey EXOS 58 (with aftermarket side pockets)

Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $160 (on sale)
The pack has a nice feature set, but the framesheet suspension system does not live up to the advertised weight of 35 lbs. Even worse, packed without the framesheet, the back begins to buckle at only 15 lbs. Hikers would be better off going with either a true frame or frameless. This one splits the middle and falls short.
- Good compression
- Supportive, comfoftable hipbelt
- Poor suspension
Overall, this pack has a nice set of features. The compression system is very effective and it gives several options for carrying gear on the outside of the pack. Its best feature is easily the hipbelt which quickly molds to the shape of your hips, increasing both load transfer and comfort over time.
However, the suspension system is rather poor, and the framesheet doesn't live up to its billing. I used the pack over six months, in a variety of configurations both framed and frameless. Without the frame, the molded backpanel creates weak spots that cause the pack to buckle even with very light loads (less than 15 lbs.), and the more often this happens, the quicker the frame collapses each time. With the frame, the pack is good to 25 lbs., but the framesheet is generally frustrating. It keeps the back of the pack from adapting to the shape of your back and becomes uncomfortable over time. Even more, it is too flexible to provide strong load transfer above 20-25 lbs.
The Crown tries to be a pack of all trades—switching between framed and frameless modes easily. But in the end, the poor suspension keeps it from doing either of them well.
This is a great lightweight multi-day back pack coupled…
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $199
This is a great lightweight multi-day back pack coupled with Airbeam for the frame for 15 to 30 lb loads.
- Air beam support
- Large capacity
- Roll top water resistance pack
- Back support has air channels
- Does not support over 30 lbs very well, even with the airbeam
- No hip belt pockets
- The hip belt is light, could be thicker.
Bought this for a 28lb load for a two-week backpacking trip.
This is a very comfortable bag and has impeccable quality for the sticking and design.
You have to remember to pack your load correctly and tightened the pack string system so all the contents in the pack are close to the back and not shifting.
The hip belt is a little light which causes the pack to be a little uncomfortable after a few hours on the trail.
I have used this on three backpacking trips in preparation for my two week trip and so far it holds up great.
Super great product. Both lightweight and durable.
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $179
Super great product. Both lightweight and durable. I hiked the Appalachian Trail with this pack and it stood up for the whole thing. I'm still using the same pack. It also has an innerchangeable back brace. Great pack!
- Innerchangeable waiststrap, and back brace
- Lightweight and durable
- One pocket, easy storage
- Compressible and waterproof
- Large storage area
- No waist pockets
It stood up to all of my hiking. The only cons were that the side pockets tended to get a little holy with all the throwing around. But other then that it is super durable and lightweight.
I fell in love iwth this pack after my first use and will always use Granite Gear for my packs from here on out. It is the lightest I could go and the best, most comfortable packs.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – After being held scoreless in the opening quarter, Plymouth State University registered touchdowns in the three remaining frames en route to a 21-7 victory over MIT in a New England Football Conference (NEFC) Boyd Division game on Saturday. The Panthers picked up their fourth consecutive win and improved to 5-1 on the year and 3-0 in league play. Following the loss, the Engineers' record dipped to 1-4 overall and 0-3 in the NEFC.
Both squads were unable to convert on their opening drives as a 50-yard punt by John Wenzel pinned Plymouth State at its one-yard line. An exchange of three-and-outs put the Panthers at their own 17 for their third drive of the frame. MIT's defense forced another punt that was blocked by Rhys Borchert and was recovered by punter Nick Provost at the six. Marcel Sanchez had runs of two and three yards which were both stopped by Harry Fallon. Nate Forbes then scampered the final yard to the endzone. Matthew Peterson's successful extra-point gave the Engineers a 7-0 advantage with six seconds remaining in the quarter.
Plymouth State responded with a touchdown on its next drive. Passes by J.J. Brooks to Ty Long (12 yards), Aaron Getz (23 yards), and Brendan Fontaine (30 yards) put the Panthers at the MIT five after starting at their own 21. A pair of rushes by Michael Malia generated three yards while Brooks had a two-yard keeper for the score. Christian Mulcahy converted the extra point to tie the game at the 9:24 mark of the second quarter.
On the ensuing kickoff, Provost's boot sailed out of bounds at the MIT 11 and was spotted at the hosts' 40. Ben Hessels hauled in a 24-yard pass from John Wenzel who then connected with Mike Fitzgerald for an eight-yard catch. Wenzel dashed four yards to the Panthers' 24 but the Engineers' drive ended on Dan Kelly's interception at the 15, which was returned to the PSU 33.
MIT's defense denied the visitors a chance to capitalize on the turnover as they stalled at their own 38. The snap on the punting attempt sailed over Provost's head and caused him to chase the ball down to the 10-yard line. Despite being pursued by the Engineers, Provost managed to get the punt off at the PSU 20 which was caught by Brian Doyle at the MIT 34.
Neither side made much progress during the final five minutes of the half, preserving the 7-7 deadlock at the intermission.
Starting the third quarter with the ball at its own 35, MIT picked up a first down courtesy of Wenzel's one-yard plunge and a nine-yard reception by Fitzgerald. Wenzel then ran three yards and the play appeared to have been stopped, but Peter LaBreck forced a fumble, collected the loose ball, and ran 48 yards for the touchdown. Mulcahy's point after helped give Plymouth State a lead it would not relinquish.
The defensive battle returned as a trio of punts occurred during the next three minutes. Following a touchback on Wenzel's 39-yard boot, the Panthers' offense seemed to have found its rhythm as Long rumbled 28 yards while a penalty moved PSU up to the Engineers' 23. A timeout by MIT stopped Plymouth State's momentum as it only managed two yards on its next two rushes before Doyle picked off Brooks at the MIT seven.
The Engineers were unable to convert but the Panthers found success on their next drive which spanned the third and fourth quarters. Starting at its 30, Chris Corey and Brooks combined for seven yards on two rushes as Long sprinted 28 yards to put PSU at the MIT 35. Malia gobbled up three yards while Joel Mignault caught an eight-yard pass from Brooks as time expired in the third quarter. Steve Campbell generated 11 yards on a pair of runs as Malia's five-yard scamper resulted in first-and-goal at the MIT eight. Campbell needed two rushes to find the endzone while Mulcahy's extra point capped the scoring.
Wenzel ran for a team-high 36 yards while throwing for 97. He finished 6-of-13 with two interceptions and one sack. Sanchez bolstered the Engineers' rushing corps with 22 yards on 10 carries. In addition to his 26-yard reception, Kyle Johnson shared quarterbacking duties, going 3-of-10 for 12 yards with one interception. Fitzgerald led the way with four receptions that totaled 36 yards while Forbes added an 18-yard catch. Kristopher Weaver racked up a game-high 13 tackles to go along with a fumble recovery and pass break-up. Patrick Jupe and Peter Gilliland both contributed 10 tackles, as Jupe recorded one tackle for a loss of two yards.
Long compiled 90 yards on 15 rushing attempts to go along with a 12-yard catch. Brooks added 46 yards on the ground while going 5-of-9 for 89 yards and was intercepted once. Mignault had a team-high two receptions that yielded 24 yards while Fontaine and Getz added catches of 30 and 23 yards, respectively. LaBreck tallied nine tackles, one for a loss of a yard, as Matt MacLean chipped in eight tackles and a sack. Kevin Whalen posted an interception and a break-up while Zach Parson registered an interception of his own. Chris Francher got a piece of an MIT punt that only netted 17 yards.
Both squads continue divisional play on Saturday, October 16. MIT will travel to Western New England College while Plymouth State will host Endicott College in a pivotal match-up as both squads are undefeated in league action.

|Dark Chocolate 55% Cacao with Single Origin - Criollo, Amazon cocoa mass, (includes cocoa powder & cocoa butter), evaporated cane, juice (sugar), lecithin, vanilla
Only Pure Ingredients — Cocoa Cravings chocolate bars, made from the fabled "Criollo Arriba beans" using a recipe based on a simple combination of cacao beans, cane sugar and pure vanilla. Grown solely in Ecuador, "Arriba" is a special cocoa varietal with a perfumed floral scent. Its flavor is smooth, with a dominant floral note and nutty after–tones.
In order to present you with the purest flavor of Arriba chocolate, there is no other "covering" aroma or extra flavors added to these bars. This allows you to experience the uniquely rich Arriba aromas in these tasting bars from 55% to 71% cocoa. The uniqueness, depth and flavor also result from the use of non–deodorized cacao butter in our production.
A small nibble into any one of the bars initiates your experience with a hint of sweet caramel, followed with the caress of rich cacao and ends with a light vanilla boquet... just the flavors that rich dark cocoa beans, carefully roasted and ground, should provide.
We do not use additives, preservatives, synthetic emulisifiers or artificial flavorings. Our bars are gluten free. And we definitely do not use ingredients found in some chocolates such as transfats, corn syrup, glucose, milk substitutes, or vanillin.

Cisco TelePresence Is Dead. Long Live Cisco TelePresence!
A high five to Zeus Kerravala for hitting the nail on the head in his response to a recent Forbes article predicting the demise of telepresence as we know it. Here's the key quote:
"The real question to be asked here is whether there is enough innovation left in telepresence to allow Polycom and Cisco to stay ahead of the commodity curve, and I think the answer to that is yes."
Yes, Virginia, there is such a thing as a dancing elephant. Why, just a mere five or so years ago, telepresence was just a twinkle in John Chamber's eye. Allow me to meander down memory lane. . .
Take a look at the videoconferencing growth numbers from a Wainhouse report from the end of 2003:
It's basically bumping along—revenue in Q403 is not much higher than revenue in Q1/00.
Now, take a look at the same report from end of 2007:
I'm not saying that Cisco was solely responsible – HP came out with its ill-fated Halo in December 2005 – but I'm going to go out on a blogger's soapbox and say we contributed in a big way.
So, what's the point?
The point is: Cisco is constantly looking to disrupt markets — even those that it's already in. How are we doing that for Cisco TelePresence?
1. We are taking interactive video use cases beyond meetings. This means we're talking about truly business-impacting use cases, from remote interviewing (hey, I'm hiring!), to expert-on-demand applications for retail banking, to training and live events.
2. We are expanding the uses of video. With our portfolio of enterprise video content products, telepresence becomes one video use case among many. Telepresence can transcend distance, but technologies like recording and streaming can transcend time and scale.
3. We are introducing truly novel — and useful — innovations. So you've recorded your telepresence-enabled company meetings. How can you make it useful? Cisco is innovating with technologies like Cisco Pulse video analytics, which uses voice recognition to automatically detect different speakers and keywords. That makes it easy to scan, browse, navigate within videos, as well as finding nuggets of video information in a large cache of videos. Take a look at an example from this winter's GOP presidential primary debates.
It's a brave new video world out there, and it would be wise not to underestimate the power of innovation at Cisco.

In my opinion, the innovation will come from integration into the overall UC solution. CUCM 9.0 starts to make that a reality by incorporating video-centric features into the leading UC platform.
In order to convince end users to utilize video, you have to make it easy to use. Cisco has done that both in hardware (the TelePresence Touch controller is a thing of genius…it is so far beyond the competition that end users can't imagine going back to the old IR remotes) and in access to the technology through solutions such as Jabber.

Black Snake Moan
Black Snake Moan opens in the deep, poor South, as "Ronnie" (Timmerlake) leaves to join the Coast Guard. He leaves, in his wake, his white trash girlfriend, "Rae" (Ricci) - a young woman of dubious morals. As soon as his bus has left, Rae falls under "the sickness" and spreads her legs all over the small town. She is left for dead in the middle of the rural countryside, and found by a God-fearing former blues man turned farmer named "Lazarus" (Jackson). He nurses her back to health, keeping her hostage in hopes of curing her wicked ways, with the help of the Lord. In her salvation from sin, he hopes it will also be his own.
This is truly a unique, bizarre, and well-crafted story about a very specific slice of life. Although it takes place in present day, the film feels almost like a work of the 1970s.Continue Reading

This summer, I attended seven weddings in three months. Between traveling, lodging and gifts, I spent nearly $2,000. I'm not complaining, though; I'm happy to celebrate my friends' happiness. But if this marriage movement continues – and if I'm still single by 35 – I'm seriously considering having my own party, complete with registry. But I'm hopeful it won't come to that.
The thought of getting married made my stomach do complicated things just two years ago. There was no reason for my cynicism – my parents had the ideal marriage. They married right after high school and had the time of their lives in the 10 years that followed. They created a home, traveled and spent ample amounts of time with friends.
"We felt good, looked great and laughed often," my mother has often reflected.
Due to her own difficult childhood, she admitted that having children was not a priority to her at 29. She was afraid she was going to be a bad mother. "But your father wanted you so much, and he was my life. How could I say 'no' to him?"
Unfortunately, she had a miserable delivery. She was in labor for 22 hours, and was at risk for seizures after my birth. While Dad played with me in the nursery, my mother spent two days in a dark room. Subsequently, I was the only child.
This was just the beginning of our turbulent relationship. Now, at 27, I realize it's because we're too similar: stubborn and creative, fiercely independent and greedy of our alone time. Dad was a pillar for our family, at times a wall between my mother and me. He was strong-bodied and strong-willed. Indefatigable. Indestructible. These are words that defined him.
He was first diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease in 2001. He went into remission five years later. "Thank God," he joked with a relative. "Laurie and Sarah would kill each other." And we almost did when he died in 2007.
But with time came mending and growing. We learned to forgive and forget – to communicate. Now our relationship is better than it has ever been.
I was home for a friend's wedding in September. After my mother picked me up from the train station, we sat on the back porch of her house until dark, drinking tea and talking. She reminisced about one afternoon when I was 2. She, Dad and my grandmother took me to a playground. While my mother pushed me on a swing, they sat on a bench and watched.
"I'll never be able to thank Laurie enough," Dad told my grandmother. "If something ever happens to her, I have a reason to live."
My mother teared up at the memory. I recall him chasing a squealing me around the playground. Maybe it was that day.
I am recently single again. But I'm strangely no longer cynical.
Perhaps it's all the weddings I've been to this year – I'm love-logged by my friends' vows. Or maybe I truly am at the age when people settle down. Whatever the reason, the gardens within me lay soft and burnished beneath the peace of my awakening. For better or worse, I want what my parents had.
"Could you imagine being childless now?" I asked my mother that night on the porch.
She shook her head, "Absolutely not." She said I gave her a reason to live.

Obama to urge Congress in speech to shutter Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
President Obama will urge Congress to shutter Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the mortgage-giants bailed out by the government in 2008, as part of a strategy to buffer taxpayers from future housing market downturns.
In a speech Tuesday in Phoenix, Obama will call for transitioning the business model of Fannie and Freddie into a system where "private capital must be wiped out before the government pays on any form of catastrophic guarantee," a senior administration official said.
Obama will also renew his calls for sweeping mortgage refinancing legislation when he travels to Phoenix Tuesday. Arizona's desert capital was the epicenter of the housing crisis that began in 2008, but the market there has rebounded strongly, with home prices up and foreclosures down.
The president's visit to Phoenix marks the latest stop on his summertime economic tour aimed at refocusing his agenda on middle class Americans still struggling to fully recover following the recession. The collapse of the housing market in particular had a dramatic impact on people's lives and the economic viability of communities across the country.

"So many Americans across the country view their own economic and financial circumstances through their homes and whether they own a home, whether their home is underwater, whether they feel like they have equity in their homes," White House spokesman Jay Carney said Monday.
Senior administration officials said Obama would focus in Phoenix on shifting more of the burden for supporting the nation's massive mortgage market to the private sector. A centerpiece of that effort is his support for winding down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The White House has already lauded efforts to achieve that goal spearheaded by Republican Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee and Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia. While Obama will outline his own proposals on Tuesday, his plans are largely in line with the bipartisan Senate overhaul.
Officials said Obama will insist that the government only step in to pay out mortgage guarantees after private capital has been exhausted and that private capital bear the substantial majority of any losses. He will also call for Fannie and Freddie's investment portfolios to be wound down by at least 15 percent per year.
Obama advisers did not outline a specific timeframe for winding down Fannie and Freddie. The Corker-Warner legislation would shutter the operations within five years.
Fannie and Freddie were nationalized during the 2008 financial collapse and bailed out with $187 billion in taxpayer-funded loans. The two enterprises don't directly make loans, but buy mortgages from lenders, package them as bonds, guarantee them against default and sell them to investors.
Fannie and Freddie currently own or guarantee half of all U.S. mortgages and back nearly 90 percent of new ones.
Jared Bernstein, a former member of Obama's economic team, told The Wall Street Journal the president is putting a marker down "that says there's a need for a government backstop for the secondary mortgage market, one whose magnitude is still to be determined."
Against the backdrop of Phoenix's reinvigorated housing market, Obama will also tout refinancing proposals that gained little traction on Capitol Hill when he first unveiled them last year. Among his proposals is a call for expanding refinancing eligibility for homeowners who do not have government-backed mortgages.
The president will also look to link his housing proposals to immigration reform, his top second term legislative priority. Officials said he will argue that legal immigration can stimulate the housing market, noting that immigrants accounted for 40 percent of new homeowners nationwide between 2000 and 2010, according to the Obama administration.
The officials insisted on anonymity in order to preview the president's remarks ahead of his trip.
The nationwide housing recovery has been providing critical support to the economy at a time when manufacturing and business investment have stagnated. Steady job growth and low mortgage rates in the past year have also fueled more home sales. The increased demand, along with a tight supply of homes for sale, has pushed home prices higher. That's encouraged builders to start more homes and create more construction jobs.
The recovery in Phoenix is emblematic of the larger improvements happening in many parts of the country.
Just two years ago, the region was in the throes of the worst housing collapse in the country, with prices down nearly 60 percent from their June 2006 peak and banks foreclosing on 70,000 homeowners a year. While the current median home price remains below peak, the levels have risen 66 percent from September 2011. Buyers are plentiful and homes for sale scarce, leading to bidding wars for resale homes.
