A quick thank you to Bill and Forrest for their words about DataObscura and my own work.Very much appreciated.I do often feel I toil in obscurity.Anthony
Richard Bone - I don't think he has ever gotten the level of recognition he deserves. He has had some "average works" but a lot of his stuff is superb and he is a VERSATILE artist.
I do often feel I toil in obscurity.
Meg Bowles - her 2011 release, A Quiet Light, is one of the best fusions of space and ambient in years. To release something this excellent after a more than 10 year absence is, IMO, unprecedented.

Experian Offers Searchable Consumer Credit Database
Experian has taken a quarterly report of consumer credit data, one that used to be printed and came to hundreds of pages of text and charts, and turned it into a web-based searchable database. The new tool, IntelliView, provides data in seven categories: bank card, retail card, automotive, first mortgage, second mortgage, home equity line of credit and personal loans. Credit.com recently used it to compile a list of the 10 states with the highest average bank card balance per consumer in the third quarter of 2012.
"These reports used to come in huge binders, and anyone making a credit granting decision would have to plow through all the hard copy," says Alan Ikemura, senior product manager and business consultant for the Decision Sciences group at Experian. "This is a web query analysis and reporting tool you can access through a web browser 24/7. People making credit granting decisions don't want to have to stump through pages of information."
IntelliView does not query Experian's entire consumer credit database, which tracks 230 million U.S. customers, but a representative sample of 10% of the transactions. The information is randomized and anonymized, so it's more of a tool for trend analysis than a source of information about specific consumers.
"The target end user for this is a business executive making strategic decisions about which direction they want to go in, in areas like risk mitigation and cross-selling, where they stand against the marketplace, and being able to quickly do 'what if' scenarios on the fly," Ikemura says. "They can do this internally on their own, rather than having to turn to an analyst for help." The product is aimed at bank directors and senior managers.
In a demonstration, Ikemura provided a use case: a banker wanting to know how a type of product is performing from a risk point of view in a certain location. Another use case: a banker could call up a heat map of bank card delinquencies around the country, mouse over each state and see which has most and least delinquencies, to help with a product decision.
"We're trying to make it as simple as possible for the business person who may not be analytics savvy to get at different views of data, create reports and discuss them with others," Ikemura says.

Schroders Quickview: Large yuan depreciation not on the horizon
PBoC yuan fix significant
The decision by the People's Bank of China (PBoC) to alter the way in which it fixes the yuan – now taking into account the previous day's closing spot rate – is a significant one.
But contrary to many media headlines, we do not believe this is primarily a policy aimed at providing stimulus to exporters.
The resulting depreciation, less than 2%, means that in trade-weighted terms the yuan is back to the level it was at ten days ago.
This is not the kind of change that will see a boom in Chinese exports. Far more important is the increased role of the market in determining the value of the currency.
Major depreciation unlikely
Consequently, we see this more as a reform aimed at Special Drawing Right1 (SDR) inclusion, rather than at boosting growth.
That said, the PBoC's chief economist has said that the central bank will stabilise market expectations to ensure an orderly transition to the new regime. This is not the end of intervention.
Indeed, we think it would be unwise to allow a large depreciation at this time, given the sizeable capital outflows recorded in the first half of the year.
Entrenching expectations of depreciation would serve only to exacerbate those outflows and potentially destabilise the financial system.
Will we see much more depreciation from here?
Beyond the risk of capital outflows, which should discourage policy-led depreciation, there remain structural supports, particularly in the form of the current account surplus.
But the reference to the closing spot rate, in current market conditions, will exert some depreciation pressure. PBoC intervention will be needed to alter market expectations if the authorities want to prevent depreciation.
One final change to note is that the fixing will also be determined by the exchange rate movements of major currencies. That possibly implies a move away from a pure dollar peg to a basket of currencies.
If this is so, and the PBoC wants to peg the yuan in trade-weighted terms, depreciation versus the dollar becomes more likely, particularly if the wave of dollar strength continues.
However, we believe financial and social stability remain the overriding concerns of policymakers, and so a large devaluation is not on the horizon.

"Since the start of the uprising, stories of brutality against journalists in prison have surfaced but the beating of Ali Farzat shows publicly the intensity of the violence against the critical press," said CPJ Deputy Director Robert Mahoney. "The international community must condemn this attack and make clear to the government in Damascus that it will be held accountable for this and all attacks on journalists."
Ferzat, 60, is renowned in the Arab world for his caricatures of authoritarian leaders including Syrian President Bashar al-Assad who has sought to quell protests across the country this year and silence critical media.

News bulletin - Rest in Peace: Jim Palosaari, 1939-2011
I remember you. You were baptized one summer afternoon in the warm, sparkling surf at Corona Del Mar, or maybe in the chilly waters of Woody Island in Kodiak, Alaska. You stood on a noisy, traffic-clogged street corner in Los Angeles, Detroit, Kansas City, Minneapolis or Cleveland handing out copies of the Hollywood Free Paper to everyone who passed by.
We met at a "jeans and t-shirts" Bible study at Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, or was it the House of Joshua in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho? I saw you at a Jesus rap in that rambling, two-story Green Pastures house in Pomona, or maybe we prayed together in the cozy House of Manna in Port Angeles, Washington.
I'll never forget the time you and I stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Jack Sparks in a rally outside Sproul Hall at UC Berkeley, and marched with Larry Norman on Spiritual Revolution Day in Sacramento.
We opened our dog-eared, leather-covered New American Standard bibles for a challenging study with Ron Turner on the lawn at Azusa Pacific College after an hour of Jesus music by Fred Caban's Agape band, or maybe we washed dishes together late one night at the Door coffeehouse in Prescott, Arizona.
That tangerine VW Beetle filled with noisy, long-haired Jesus Freaks might have been headed to the Hollywood Palladium to see Larry Norman on a Sunday afternoon, or to a local Jesus festival in your home town in Louisiana, Oklahoma or Oregon. Wherever it was, it's great to see you again. There's tandoori and curry in the kitchen if you'd like to stay.
From 1969 until roughly 1975, we published the Hollywood Free Paper on a shoestring, the same shoestring we're creating this Web site on now, and ever since our first clumsy, unrefined attempt at printing a newspaper, you've never stopped sending us your encouragement, friendship and love.
Many of you have continued to write to us at Box 1949 in Hollywood (yes, we still have that same post office box after all these years, although our zip code has changed a few times and is now 90078.) You've prayed for us, asked for back copies of the Free Paper (sorry, they're all gone now), and inquired about our founding editor Duane Pederson.
Duane is doing well and has been involved in prison ministry in medium and maximum security prisons across the United States. He continues to minister to young people in crisis on the street as well as in prison, and was editor of our recent 35th Anniversary edition of the HFP.
You'll be happy to know that we still have the historical archives of the original Free Paper, with articles, information about the various Jesus houses and groups we were in touch with across the United States, and drawings by our radical cartoonists Dale Yancy, Ron Bufton, Warren Heard and Lance Dennis Bowen. Also, we still have nearly every photograph we ever took (including many that were never published) and one file copy of every issue of the Free Paper for reference.
As God wills and as time permits, we are scanning this valuable material and making it available for downloading from the archives section and photo album, or use the site map to browse our entire website on one page.
The Jesus Movement was not strictly an American phenomenon, it was not just a California thing, and it certainly wasn't limited to the big cities. The Movement sprang up in the streets and small towns and on college campuses across the country simultaneously, and eventually spread to Canada and Europe, and some say even further. It brought together people of all colors, ages and backgrounds.
It was a spontaneous stirring of the Spirit of God among the young people of America and ultimately the world. It wasn't about political or social agendas, it was about Jesus and His life in us and centering our lives around His teachings.
It caught traditional churches by surprise, sounding a stern wake-up call to comfortable Christians while proclaiming Good News to those outside. In many ways it continues to this day, inside every brother or sister who remembers the Movement and who still prefers a personal relationship with Jesus to empty religious moralism and culture wars.
It's been a long trip, but here we are, talking about Jesus just the same. Oh, do you still have that capo you borrowed from me after the 2nd Chapter of Acts concert? I've had to play in the key of C ever since. Welcome home.

Dearest AV Club Readers:
This will be the last pop culture love letter for a while, because I am leaving to pursue a new, humbling, and exciting opportunity and The Hater blog and column will be going on hiatus.
In case the haunting voice, flowing white silk pirate angel costume, and barely intelligible lyrics of the IAmAngelica.com ad posted above didn't fill you with the appropriate melancholy, please gaze upon this sad relic of pop culture past:
Four years ago, I ended my very first Hater column as anyone obsessed with hammerhead sharks would: By posting a picture of Star Jones in a bathing suit. It was a proud day. My parents called to ask, "What's a hater?" I still smile just thinking about it.
From that Hater to this, I regret nothing. That picture was not a gratuitous celebrity beach photo, and it advanced the plot of my first Hater post. But if, let's say hypothetically, I were to regret something, it would probably be that I didn't find more occasions to post pictures of hammerhead sharks in bathing suits.
So how do you thank someone who's taken you from Star Jones bathing suit photos to BK Mimosas and awful Judd Apatow spoofs? It isn't easy, but I'll try.
For you, dear readers, I've consumed Sex & The City-themed beverages at a Houlihan's in Penn Station. I've read Esquire. I've thought, a lot, about the inner workings of James Cameron's mind. I've attended a Jared Leto Q & A. I've read almost every awful trend piece in existence. I watched Britain's Worst Teeth, Millionaire Matchmaker, and The Secret (the teeth documentary was definitely the most enjoyable). I discovered Yola and identified something known as Ke$ha. I figured out how to freak minds. I went to an 11am screening of Zach Braff's Face Is Made Of Feelings. I listened to "Daughters."
True, I probably would have done most of this stuff anyway, but it was more fun doing it for you. Thank you all for reading, and don't worry: I plan to continue with Tolerability Index, and I hope to keep hating at some point in some form. Until then, keep refreshing this page and storing your rage.

On Saturday, Oklahoma will make its first trip to Notre Dame Stadium in 14 years. The Irish won that 1999 contest, 34-30, and have won eight others against the Sooners, as they hold a 9-1 all-time mark in the series. Last season's game turned on several big Notre Dame plays on both sides of the ball, lifting the Irish to a 30-13 road win and an 8-0 record.
What will happen this time around? We turn to Big 12 reporter Brandon Chatmon and Notre Dame reporter Matt Fortuna to preview this weekend's tilt in South Bend, Ind.
Matt: Brandon, Blake Bell earned the noble distinction last year of becoming the first player to rush for a touchdown against Notre Dame. That was eight games into the Irish's season, and this year they have already given up two scores on the ground. Obviously, Bell has a lot more on his plate this time around. And he is making his first career road start, in a stadium where the Irish have won 10 straight games. What can Notre Dame's defense expect to see from Bell on Saturday?
Brandon: The Irish will actually have to account for the possibility they will see No. 10 throw the ball when he's behind center. Notre Dame will have to be prepare for Bell to test its secondary with his arm more than his feet, and he showed he might be a better passer than people think in his first start against Tulsa. Undoubtedly, the windows will shrink against ND but the fact remains that the Irish will have to prepare for Bell, who could test them with his arm and feet, unlike their preparations for Landry Jones, who doesn't put fear into the heart of any defense with his legs. The overriding question in Norman is: how have the Irish changed in the trenches after manhandling OU in Norman last season? Can they do that again?
Matt: The depth of Notre Dame's defensive line took some hits this offseason -- first with the transfer of Eddie Vanderdoes to UCLA, then with the ACL tear suffered by Tony Springmann. Still, the front-line guys remain very dangerous, though the numbers have not exactly depicted that through four games. The Irish's opponents have done a good job of establishing a quick-strike passing game, effectively negating the strengths of the Irish's defensive linemen. A mobile quarterback like Bell will likely present more challenges Saturday, and it us up to the Irish to continue to adjust. The other side is a bit of a mystery as well. Notre Dame has struggled to establish much of a run game so far, but its offensive line has done a tremendous job of keeping Tommy Rees standing up straight through four games, and the offense has again limited the turnovers. Rees and this year's group of running backs just don't pose the kind of threat that Everett Golson and last year's backfield did, so it's hard to imagine the Irish running to set up the deep pass in the same way they were able to last year, when they connected with Chris Brown for a game-changing 50-yard strike in the fourth quarter. They may have more weapons at receiver this year, though. How does Oklahoma's pass coverage match up with TJ Jones, DaVaris Daniels and company?
Brandon: Well, Matt, the Sooners' secondary would like to think it's ready for the challenge against Rees and Notre Dame's receivers. All-Big 12 cornerback Aaron Colvin won't be a concern, but the rest of the secondary is somewhat untested. Senior Gabe Lynn is starting at safety, a new position, after spending his first three seasons at nickelback and corner, and he has played well. OU's three new starters, nickelback Julian Wilson, cornerback Zack Sanchez and safety Quentin Hayes, have looked good but haven't yet played a quarterback who will capitalize on their mistakes. That said, the OU secondary, without question, is faster and better in coverage than the 2012 version. Whether it will it hold up mentally in a hostile environment is the unanswered question, so I can't wait to see how it all plays out. Anyway, who do you like this weekend?
Matt: Notre Dame's defense played its best game Saturday, responding to Brian Kelly's mid-week challenge. But I'm just not sure it has completely turned the corner yet. I think the Irish are getting Oklahoma at a more opportune time, as Bell is making just his second start and the Sooners have yet to really be tested. But I have not seen enough so far that makes me believe Notre Dame will be able to handle everything Oklahoma will throw at it offensively. Oklahoma has had one more week to prepare, and I sense a bit of wounded pride coming from the Sooners after the Irish out-muscled them late last year and, eventually, ended up ruining the their BCS-bowl hopes. How do you see this one unfolding?
Brandon: I think everything falls on the shoulders of the quarterbacks. Rees is much more experienced than Bell and I have a feeling that's going to show itself on Saturday as the Irish make Bell uncomfortable in the pocket and force a couple of mental mistakes from the junior during his first road start. OU's defense will hold up and play well, giving the Sooners the chance to remain in the game no matter what happens offensively. But turnovers will be the difference and ND will win the turnover battle and win a close, hard-fought game at home.

A Day in the Life of the
Coast Guard
Seaworthy Goes for a Ride on the Coast Guard Cutter Diligence.
At 11:10 a.m. on Wednesday, June 16, the Coast Guard cutter Diligence backs out of its dock at Maine Avenue in Washington, DC, turns, and begins moving slowly toward the Wilson Bridge. Because soundings had been taken earlier in one of the ship's small boats (using an old-fashioned lead line), the 210' ship negotiates the tricky channel without incident and at 11:40 the giant span on the bridge is raised so that Diligence, amid traffic helicopters and a long line of frustrated motorists, can pass beneath.
The Wilson Bridge doesn't open for just anybody and on the rare occasions when it is opened the spectacle of stopped traffic on the normally frantic capitol beltway is big news on local radio and television stations. Unfortunately, opening the Wilson Bridge for Diligence is about as much clout as the Coast Guard has been able to muster in our nation's capitol in recent years. A study of 41 of the world's "navies" found the U. S. Coast Guard now ranks 39th. After years of budget cutting, the Coast Guard's aircraft and ships, some of which predate WW II, are now older than those in many third world countries.
Diligence, as it steams slowly down the Potomac, in many ways reflects both the strengths and problems that the Coast Guard faces as it approaches the millennium. The 37-year-old ship is headed to its home port in Wilmington, North Carolina with its crew of 65 men after being on patrol off George's Bank in the North Atlantic for almost two months. The ship was designed originally for brief, two-week search and rescue missions with a crew of 75. While crew sizes (and budgets) have been shrinking, the role of ships like Diligence have been constantly expanded. On this trip, Diligence's crew tagged two Right Whales that were trapped in nets, enforced 14 complicated fisheries management plans, seized catches of fishing boats that were fishing in closed areas, and conducted numerous boardings of commercial vessels for safety and pollution compliance. Unlike the other military, the Coast Guard is empowered to enforce federal laws, which includes the power to make arrests. Aside from enforcing fishing laws, Diligence has made 41 seizures, mostly in the Caribbean, for cocaine and marijuana smuggling. And while on another recent Caribbean patrol, 225 Haitians had to be housed aboard for five days after being rescued from their foundering boat.
Diligence is a challenging assignment; the hours are long, and the constant motion of the ship makes the men's everyday work at sea that much more difficult. When the Executive Officer, Lt. Cmdr. Mike Gigilo, gave his briefing on the bridge, he mentioned crew fatigue along with numerous shoals and meandering channels as hazards the ship will encounter on its way back to Wilmington. The men onboard — the average age is only 23 — routinely cope with 12 hour work days, seven days a week. And when a helicopter is brought aboard for reconnaissance, the ship is on call around the clock and the average work day is sometimes stretched to 18 hours.
Diligence's skipper, Cmdr. Mark Landry, will remain on the bridge, quietly watching over the shoulders of the men on duty until the ship reaches the ocean. The previous night, while the ship was in port in Washington, he hosted a special event aboard Diligence to honor the Coast Guard Auxiliary, the Coast Guard's volunteer arm, which was attended by the Secretary of Transportation, assorted politicians, as well as Coast Guard and Auxiliary brass. Tonight he will be on the bridge until 3 a.m. — a long day. On commercial vessels, only two men, a mate and an officer, would be on the bridge, but on military vessels like Diligence, the job of navigating, standing lookout and conning the ship typically requires more — much more — manpower. Whenever Diligence is in a narrow channel, over a dozen men can be standing watch, taking bearings, plotting the ship's course, monitoring the radar, monitoring GPS, talking to the engine room, and taking the helm. One reason for the larger numbers has to do with combat: in a military action, enemy fire could decimate the number of men on the bridge. Another reason, according to Cmdr. Landry, is that the ship is constantly training new recruits, not just in navigation, but in all facets of ship operation.
After several years of streamlining, the Coast Guard is at its smallest size since 1967, despite the expanded number of missions. The shortage of personnel means there are opportunities aplenty for hardworking young recruits. Lt. Cmdr. Giglio, the ship's executive officer, notes that an exceptional recruit can be given command of a 41-footer after only two years in the Coast Guard — a daunting assignment, given the complexity of the many different problems he or she is likely to be confronted with.
Down in Diligence's engine room, the two giant 2550 hp diesels push the ship at cruising speed, about 14 knots. Clay Pierce, a 20-year old E-2, checks the gauges and reports any discrepancies to the bridge. Before Pierce joined the Coast Guard nine months ago, he had only seen the ocean twice. Pierce clearly takes pride in his work, but he says being at sea for half the year is hard, especially on the married guys. If Pierce were married, his wife and family would be eligible for food stamps, but he says he is able to save much of his $1,080 monthly pay toward buying a car.
Why does he endure the long hours, low pay, and hard work? Pierce says he joined because "The Coast Guard does good things." It's a sentiment that is echoed over and over by the ship's young crew. A man standing watch on the ship's flying bridge said when his family used to vacation on Long Island, he watched the Coast Guard boats going out to rescue boaters. It made a lasting impression. Another man, a Coast Guard Academy cadet who grew up on a farm, said he joined the Coast Guard because it is dedicated to saving lives.
The point is not missed by the Coast Guard's hierarchy in its quest to attract bright young recruits. Cmdr. Landry says that Search and Rescue is a large part of how the Coast Guard sees itself, both at the top and among the men themselves. Landry tells all of the young recruits that, "you may well play a role in saving someone's life." To the casual observer, this seems like recruiting hype, since the Coast Guard is preoccupied with so many other missions. But whenever a Coast Guard ship receives a distress call, its everyday operations are suspended immediately. Whether it is patrolling fisheries, performing drug interdiction, stopping illegal immigration, or enforcing pollution laws, whenever someone is in distress, Diligence only mission is Search and Rescue.
Among the more experienced crew there are plenty of Search and Rescue stories. Several years ago, when Cmdr. Landry was stationed in California, he received a call from a woman who said a man on a windsurfer "may be having trouble getting back to shore." She couldn't be sure, and later even seemed to recant her observation. Despite the lack of evidence that the man was in serious peril, Landry made the decision to launch a helicopter rescue from the nearest base, some 500 miles away. When the Coast Guard arrived, the man was alive, barely clinging to his windsufer. Lt. Cmdr. Giglio tells a similar story about a successful rescue of a badly injured boater on a tiny island in the Western Pacific. The effort involved both the U.S. and Japanese navies but was coordinated by the Coast Guard in Hawaii.
There are other stories told by Diligence's crew involving lives that were saved and a few that were lost. Cmdr. Landry speaks eloquently about the agony of an unsuccessful rescue as well as the joy shared by the entire crew whenever lives are saved. In The Perfect Storm, men from the Coast Guard cutter Tamaroa risked their own lives to successfully rescue a couple aboard a sailboat in a severe storm off New England's coast, the same patrol area from which Diligence is now returning. The couple who were saved noted the Coast Guard's dedication, "I remember their intensity, it really struck me. These guys were so pumped up, but they were also human — real humanity. They'd take us by the shoulders and look us in the eyes and say, 'I'm so glad you're alive, we were with you last night, we prayed for you. We were worried about you.' When you're on the rescuing side you're very aware of life and death, but when you're on the rescued side, you just have a sort of numb awareness."
A big question facing the Coast Guard today is whether its search and rescue capabilities are being jeopardized by personnel shortages, an aging fleet, and a lack of state-of-the-art equipment. This image of the daring Coast Guard rescue in "The Perfect Storm" contrasts sharply with the much publicized rescue, or lack of a rescue, of the ill-fated crew of the Morning Dew, a small sailboat that ran onto a rock jetty late one night at the entrance to Charleston Harbor. A brief mayday was received by the Coast Guard, but it could not be tracked (even if it had been intelligible, which it wasn't) because the station lacked the equipment necessary to get a bearing on the sailboat's VHF signal.
Aboard Diligence, the lack of funding for equipment is also evident. Radar, to cite one example, is important, perhaps the most important piece of equipment on a Coast Guard cutter. One of the crew notes casually that he saw the same 12" radar model being used on Diligence recently at a navy museum. In an Associated Press article last year about a drug smuggler, another Coast Guard cutter that was pursuing a suspicious boat but lost it on radar when it passed through a fleet of fishing boats. The article concluded, "Better radar would have helped. But the Coast Guard — saddled with aging equipment to rescue boaters and catch drug traffickers, illegal immigrants and fish poachers on the high seas — does not have it."
Since the Coast Guard has been forced to streamline its operations, problems with aging equipment has become a part of everyday life on ships like Diligence. At age 43, Chief Engineer Lt. Joe Siemiatowski — "Ski" — is the oldest man in the crew, who started his Coast Guard career as a junior enlisted man and worked his way up to become an officer (a "Mustang" in Coast Guard parlance). Ski has developed an uncanny sense of how to get things done in today's Coast Guard, despite the budget problems. He says the ship's two diesel generators, for example, are no longer being built and he had to scrounge parts from another ship that was going to be in port so that Diligence would have electricity. Coast Guard personnel wryly refer to this sort of juggling of time and equipment as "leveraging technology."
Just how long technology can continue to be leveraged without jeopardizing the Coast Guard's many missions is an open question. In his annual "State of the Coast Guard" message, Admiral Loy, said that streamlining should not be a continuous activity: "The logical extension of doing more with less is doing everything with nothing." One measure of the Coast Guard's frantic effort to continue operational excellence in the face of low budgets and reduced manpower is indicated in it's use of "Temporary Assigned Duty" (TAD) orders. When TAD orders are issued, personnel are plucked from their regular jobs and assigned temporarily to fill jobs where personnel are more urgently needed. In the Pacific last year, Admiral Loy notes that TAD orders were up 70%. He compares this sort of personnel movement to cutting six inches off of one end of a blanket and sewing it onto the other end. "It does not make the blanket longer and it is not a permanent solution."
The night before the ship is due to arrive in Wilmington, the men gather so that awards can be given for things like conduct and special achievements. A driving rain on the ship's flight deck forces the men, both officers and enlisted men, to crowd into the ship's small mess. The young crew's enthusiasm is contagious; everyone is in wonderful spirits. For some men, the few who are being transferred, the ceremony is also an opportunity to say good-bye to the rest of the crew. As names are called, each man goes forward amid cat-calls and good natured cheering to receive his award. One man in particular, "Frantz", draws a huge applause. Cmdr. Landry says later that when Frantz — a young boswain's mate who looks to be about 19 years old — first came aboard he was defiant and had difficulty accepting orders. But gradually, with the influence of the officers and other crew, he became one of the hardest working men on a hardworking ship.
As he's given the award, Frantz thanks everyone aboard — he calls them his family — and then lowers his voice to say that he will never forget them. Everyone is silent. Frantz, despite his many tattoos and hard facade, is fighting back tears.
While there may have been a day when the military took its manpower for granted, such is not the case today. A ship's captain and other senior officers in the Coast Guard have the Herculean task of maintaining discipline while somehow, despite the long hours and low pay, keeping moral — and reenlistment — high among the ship's crew. With some of the men, like Frantz, the Coast Guard offers them the first real security, the first real family, they've ever known. But for other men, their desire to "do good things" in an organization like the Coast Guard is constantly challenged by the lure of higher pay and regular hours of life ashore.
The following morning Diligence is scheduled to arrive in Wilmington. The crew wakes up to "I Feel Good" by James Brown on the PA system and a little later two local radio personalities, Brian and Jim, who host "The Morning Disaster" in Wilmington, come aboard a for a live broadcast during the trip up the Cape Fear River. Quips are traded on the air between the popular radio jocks, the captain, and some of the crew. Clearly, everyone is feeling good to be home. As the ship passes beneath the lift bridge in Wilmington, a crowd of wives, children, parents, girlfriends, and passers-by come into view along the wharf. The crew stands along the rail as the ship inches forward and lines are thrown ashore. It's a scene that goes back over 200 years, when the original Diligence, a Revenue Service cutter, returned from patrol to the town of Wilmington.
Summing up his State of the Coast Guard address, Admiral Loy mentions Morning Dew and the need for better equipment and training. He acknowledges the seriousness of the Coast Guard's readiness challenge, calling it a great personal concern. But he says that despite the readiness shortfalls he remains optimistic. Why? First, he says that publicly acknowledging the problem is the first step toward solving it. And he says that the Secretary of Transportation and many politicians now recognize the urgency of the challenges the Coast Guard faces. But most of all Admiral Loy says he is optimistic because of the type of people who serve in the Coast Guard.
On a sunny, June morning in Wilmington, watching Diligence's young crew greet their families and friends on the dock, it's hard not to share his optimism.
Caption: The crew lines the rail as Diligence arrives back at its home port in Wilmington, North Carolina after two months on patrol. The tradition of standing along the rail also goes back hundreds of years in the military, when returning crews were much more likely to have been decimated by fighting and disease. By having the men along the rail, a crew's families could quickly see who was returning — and who had been lost — during the voyage. In this case, all of Diligence's crew was returned safely.
With the exception of a few officers, Diligence's crew tended to be young and relatively inexperienced. According to Cmdr. Landry, the ship is constantly training new recruits, not just in navigation, but in all facets of ship operation. Despite the inexperience, there was certainly no shortage of enthusiasm among the crew.

Jimmie Johnson: in a world of his own (Photo: Getty Images for NASCAR)
By Mike Mulhern
Okay, wake up now. The chase is on…and how is it playing out in TV-land?
How is NASCAR itself doing on television in this second half of the long, long season?
OBTW, is there much at all happening right now in this sport anyway?
What do you think is the top story at the moment on the Sprint Cup stock car tour?
Unfortunately it looks like too many drivers and teams are – as in the first half of the season – trying their hardest not to make mistakes, not to make waves, not to do anything very exciting, to be honest.
Add in all the economic angst throughout the garage, even typically squirrelly drivers are trying to be on their best behavior, to keep a job or land a job, to keep a sponsor or land a sponsor.
Meanwhile the amazing Hendrick Motorsports juggernaut just keeps steam-rolling along.
Let's say it flatly and see if it plays out like this: Either Jimmie Johnson, Brad Keselowski or Tony Stewart will win this year's championship.
But then maybe the championship itself is one of the big problems here.
Yes, a great championship battle is exciting, like the classic 1992 fight with Davey Allison, Bill Elliott and Alan Kulwicki, that 1979 duel between Darrell Waltrip and Richard Petty, the 1973 desperation charge by Benny Parson over Cale Yarborough, those bitterly hard fought title battles by Bobby Allison (who did put that sugar in the gas tank?), and all those Dale Earnhardt bids, some lost, most won…
There was a lot of raw emotion in those….tricky head games too. And it was all fun to watch.
Okay, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has made the chase. What's he going to do with it? (Photo: Getty Images for NASCAR)
Would someone please poke Kyle Busch or Kurt Busch with a big stick?
Would someone please page Robby Gordon and tell him we need him back?
This sport is begging for something to light the fires.
Is it time for somebody to put the racing back in the racing?
Can we suit up Ricky 'Rooster' Rudd, and Buddy Baker and Cale Yarborough and generate some genuine emotion out on the track?
To put it bluntly, NASCAR sometimes seems to be racing on flats these days.
Maybe Bruton Smith is right – give bonus points for donuts on the doors.
Denny Hamlin: time to get 'er done. (Photo: Getty Images for NASCAR)
Okay, let's go to the chalkboard and look at some TV numbers:
Directly comparing this Chicagoland opener – viewed by 3.9M on ESPN -- to last season's 2.2M viewers isn't easy, because last September's 400 was delayed till Monday by rain.
-- the Richmond race a week earlier might give a better benchmark. This season's regular season finale, albeit slowed by Saturday night rain, drew 5.0M viewers on ABC, compared to 2011's 6.2M (also on ABC).
-- the July Chicago events also give some idea of how that market has been working for this sport. In 2010 it drew 4.6M, in 2009 4.8M, in 2008 5.1M, and in 2007 6.3M. All four of those races were on Turner cable, with the (much higher rated) Daytona 400 a week earlier as lead-in. This past July's New Hampshire 300, on the same weekend Chicago formerly held, drew 4.8M on Turner.
-- the September chase kickoff here at New Hampshire gives more clues too. In 2010 this event drew 3.7M viewers on ESPN; in 2009, on ABC, it drew 5M, in 2008 (ABC) 6.1M, and in 2007 (ABC) 5.2M.
Remember Kyle Busch? Maybe Joe Gibbs can kick him back in gear (Photo: Getty Images for NASCAR)
Let's look at the bigger picture. Fox carried most of the first half of the NASCAR season, and viewership was down nearly 10 percent, with the coveted 18-35 male demographic getting a big hit. That, of course, was our spring of boring, no-action, no-yellow racing.
"My gas mileage is better than your gas mileage." How many fans will that put in the stands or on the couch in front of TVs.
This was an Olympic summer, and the first three NASCAR events of the season's second half played against London.
The Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis, Jimmie Johnson's rout, was down in viewers from last summer, drawing 5M to 2011's 6.3M.
Pocono the following week was likewise also down, to 4.4M, from 2011's 5.5M.
Watkins Glen this summer drew about the same, 4.5M. Last summer's Glen event was rain-delayed, but the 2010 race drew 4.9M.
Since then, though, things have picked up.
The Michigan 400, on new asphalt, was up to 5.2M, from 2011's 5M. (It averaged 5.3M from 2008-2010.)
Bristol, on the new grind, was up to 5.9M, from 2011's 5M. (It was averaging 5.4M from 2007-2010.)
Atlanta (rained out till Tuesday in 2011) drew 5.5M this past Labor Day weekend. (It averaged 5.6M in 2010 and 2009, after being moved from California, where that NASCAR weekend averaged 6M.)
Those are the numbers.
What do they really say about this sport?
Is NASCAR racing still spinning its wheels, or is it starting to regain traction?
Well, out in Vegas Jimmie Johnson is still a prohibitive favorite to win the championship.
And if this Sunday's 300 comes down again to a fuel mileage finish……

The function of this patented device is similiar to a traditional jack-screw type expander, but with a new twist!
The uniqueness of this new appliance is that its activation is accomplished by a hex key which is inserted into the front of the expander and twisted from outside of the mouth.

'helping him' [as] your goal.
But here he may just be reinforcing this forum's distaste with discussing theft of service and I would applaud that.
In the good old days I felt multiple local markets was a grey area and even now, there are times when you lose your legitimate locals and DTV simply can't help you.
The card should also have the locals tier activated, the blackout information set properly, plus another byte in that same area of the card, and the time zone. But DTV can fix all that (and to some extent the card itself is self-repairing as long as the zip and the reciever's market id are set correctly and consistently).
If your locals are munged beyond DTV's ability (or the ability of these card changes made manually) to jog them back, then midupdate will not be helpful (it is, in any case, only a locals process accelerator, it doesn't really fix anything). If locals are munged to that extent I don't know any solution other than an OS upgrade if you're willing to go to 3.1, followed by clearing the guide and todo list, or else an OS 2.52 reinstall, which will obviously wipe out everything.

i am still unsure how to get locals on my tivo without doing major damage to it...
I 25extremed the drive back in january of 2000. ran 900s.tcl to get the locals (at that time). around november of last year, dave sent down the service update which killed the locals for good. I am a legit sub and all i'm looking for are the locals i pay for in my area. I recently upgraded to soperzap's 2.5.2 which went well. I ran nophone, which is working the way it should. i checked my locals, and i get guide data, just says channel not avialable. i then transfered midupdate2.tcl and locals.dat to /var/hack and ran it, setting the MID to the one on my legit p4 card which i pay for. Why am i not getting locals? i read this thread and still cant find a clear answer as to why. This makes me believe that getting locals is a complicated matter involving many variables to be just right. I dont want to re-extreme the drive again and load 2.5.2. How can i do this get these locals i pay for?
Since your MID and your card match. And since you pay for the locals, you have to rebuild your database. You have to clear and delete your season passes/wishlists (I think it is the third entry down). It is on the menu that allows you to restart the tivo by pressing 3 down thumbs and the enter button.
It sucks, but it works. I was in the same situation as you and now I have locals.
Locals were running just fine for quite some time (since the 2.5.2 upgrade basically) which was a number of months ago already..
Today, turned on the tivo, local guide data is gone, and channel not available is on the screen..
I have a legit subscription for my locals, and i am not trying to get more locals than what I pay for, never have.. ie, i don't run any of those mvchannels scripts or whatever..
Anyone know what I can do to get it back?
Non tivo in other room is receiving locals fine..
Last time this happened, I had to go from the 2.5 to 2.5.2 upgrade and then do clear/delete... What can I do this time? Clear and Delete again perhaps? I'd prefer not to..
NEVER MIND! It wasn't a locals problem... Somehow, I lost all but 5 channels in my guide.. Then in a different thread someone suggested I reboot, and it worked!!

I updated the software, run the hacks I need from superzaps, am I done with having a terminal connected to the tivo? (it has no nic, just serial port connected to an old 486 laptop with terminal software) As long as the MID is set and matches what's on the card, all i need to do is clear and delete everything? this will rebuild my databases and i'll be good to go?
um,Originally posted by emuman100
old 486 laptop
That's a CLASSIC. I think we should have an auction!
yes, if the mid matches and you are on at least 2.5.2 and you are no longer running mvchannels, the clear and delete will fix it all up.
Thanks, I'll let you know how well it works.
This happend to my tivo once and i was confused by it... but oddly i was able to fix it by just pulling the plug on the tivo and then plugging it back it
Not sure if this will help but its worth a shot
I'm in the process of clearing guide and to do list. It has been going for about an hour and a half. It says it will take an hour. Is it stuck? or should I just let it keep going?
Trying to get my locals back. Guide showed up but "channel not available" on the screen. Got this far with no help, but seems I'm stuck now. Or should I say Tivo is stuck.
It is at least a 2 hour process.Originally posted by Laidoffsick

Thanks, finally finished. Took about 2 hours.
Completely finished! Got my locals back after upgrading to 2.5.2 and I didn't have to bug you guys at all. Did enough reading to last a few months. I'm going to mess with some more locals in my spot beam later. Used the NOPHONE, ADDLOCS, NOPPV and something else but I forgot already.
I mis read, I have what I need. Hopefully the channels will be back after the reboot!

Keeping on top of all of the activity that goes on on Facebook can be time consuming. The need to visit the site to check to see if you have any messages, respond to messages you have received, catch up with what your friends have been up to and chatting with your online friends means that you are usually unable to do anything else at the same time. Loading the Facebook site occupies your entire screen so there is unlikely to be the opportunity to multitask and get on with other things whilst chatting or using the social network for other things.
Facebook Messenger for Windows may just be the app you have been looking for. It is a dedicate Facebook app that can be used in a number of ways as an alternative to visiting the web site. The app will immediately inform you whenever you receive a message, a friend request or there is a notification generated - when a friend comments on one of your photos, for example. The news ticker that is found to the upper right of the Facebook page is visible in the app so you can see at a glance what your friends are up to.
The program can be used in one of two ways. The first option is to treat Facebook Messenger like any other Windows app and only bring it to the foreground when you want to use it – sounds are played when chat messages are received so you will know when the app needs attention. The other option is to switch to docked mode and pin the application as a bar to the right hand edge of your screen. In this mode the news ticker and your list of online friends is always visible.
Click most of the elements that are visible in the app window or dock will take you to the Facebook site to the relevant page. However, as you would expect from an app with the word 'messenger' in its name, the program can also be used to conduct chat with your Facebook contacts, just click the name of anyone in your friends list and you can start a chat in a new window. If you are chatting with more than one person at the same time, the chat window becomes tabbed to save space and enabling you to switch between conversations with ease.
A great tool for the dedicated social networker, this saves having to visit the Facebook site and keep you informed about what is going on.

The New Orleans Botanical Garden is located within City Park and was the first classical garden open to the public. It opened in 1936 with the help of redevelopment funds allotted by the national WPA program to help boost the nation's economy during the Great Depression. The botanical gardens were botanical revamped in the 1980's, and it now contains over 2,000 species of plants from around the world.
The entire botanical gardens are composed of many small gardens, each with their own identity, including a Butterfly Walk, Lord & Taylor Rose Garden, Demonstration Garden, and Exotic Foliage. Maps are available to guide you through the gardens, and "Dial to Discover" stations allow one to use a cell phone to dial in and learn about different areas. They also offer a Spring and Fall lecture series for those interested.
Make sure to devote at least two hours for a leisurely stroll through this magnificent garden during your next visit to our bed and breakfast in New Orleans.

A white frame and charcoal negative space highlight the patchwork-pieced print fabrics in Heather Bostic's Interstate Love Song quilt.
Here's what Heather had to say about her quilt:
"I wanted to create an edgy/ urban quilt expressing my admiration for my husband. It only made sense to use Anna Maria Horner's Innocent Crush fabric line with my masculine chevron design, keeping romance without the frills. Add to that the fact that my Long Arm quilter, Angela Walters, then quilted into the quilt the lyrics to Stone Temple Pilots Interstate Love Song (our song)… and I think you get perfect image of two young kids falling in love in Portland, OR.
Heather lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and two sons. Read more about her many sewing and quilting projects on her blog (music with link).
