Zombie royals by Canadian artist give Brits the shivers
Credit: Images of zombie-fied Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth from 'Zombiewood' by Rob Sacchetto.
Rob Sacchetto knows how to get under the British skin ... and veins and brains and rotting gums for that matter.
Sacchetto, you see, is a "Zombie Illustrator", as is evidenced by the above pieces of his artwork. Better yet, he's born and bred in Sudbury, Ontario, a city that is used to digging things out of the earth.
It's his business to turn perfectly normal-looking people into hideous undead creatures. Celebrities are not immune, and that includes the Royal Family.
Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth were given the rotting treatment in Sacchetto's 2010 book 'Zombiewood.' You don't even have to squint to see the family resemblence under Sacchetto's talented yet poisoned pen.
This past week, the Daily Mail website in London published a story on Sacchetto, highlighting the royal corpses among the many other celebs-turned-worm-food images from his collection, which includes Marilyn Monroe, Donald Trump and Alfred Hitchcock.
The sight of the decaying corpses of the current and future monarch certainly caught the attention of some readers, many barely containing their gag reflex at both the paper and this warped fellow from the colonies.
Commented one: "What sort of reader is the DM trying to attact I wonder, proving that one cannot underestimate the taste of the newspaper reading public ..."
Another: "What is the matter with the DM that it does these sick articles."
And another: "What business has a national newspaper showing pictures that will give our kids nightmares without a warning outside the story, with no pics until within it?"
One reader from Toronto lept to the 43-year-old artist's defence: "I love these! Quite a few uptight responses, but art is suposed to elicit a response so this fellow is quite a success."
As for Sacchetto (right -- with his zombie self-portrait) any type of reaction is better than a graveyard barbeque at midnight. "Oh, you love me, you really really love me!" he commented on the site. "Thank you all for your kind, wonderful words, your insight and your encouragement! More nightmares to come!"
Sacchetto, the creator of two zombie books and thousands of macabre makeovers in his 25-year career, has yet to tackle Prince William and Kate, but be forewarned: "I really have not gotten around to doing more yet, but one day soon, I may do the entire Royal Family," Sacchetto replied in an email to us. "That should ruffle some feathers!"
And test their sense of humour.

How to Start an Exercise Program
Don't let arthritis stop you from reaping the rewards of lifelong fitness.
Even with your arthritis, it's entirely possible to make the leap from couch potato to avid exerciser – and well worth the effort.
A 2008 study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill found that sedentary individuals with arthritis (both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis) who exercised twice a week for an hour experienced significant declines in pain and fatigue and improved their ability to manage their arthritis. In addition, a 2006 study in the Canadian Medical Association Journal concluded that exercise markedly lowered the risk of a number of health problems, including heart disease, cancer, obesity, diabetes, depression and osteoporosis.
Don't let inexperience, inertia, weight, or arthritis hold you back. "Contrary to popular belief, there is never an age, skill level or stage of arthritis so bad that you can't do something constructive for your mobility," says Vonda Wright, MD, assistant professor of orthopaedic surgery at the University of Pittsburgh Center for Sports Medicine and author of Fitness After 40 (AMACOM, 2009).
Doreen M. Stiskal, PhD, chair of the department of physical therapy at Seton Hall University in New Jersey, agrees. "Most people with arthritis don't exercise because they're in pain – not realizing that exercise is a powerful and effective pain reliever. It eases inflammation, improves energy and promotes the flow of feel-good, pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins."
And if extra weight is a concern, take heart: For obese people, being physically active is key to not only helping you lose extra pounds, it will also reduce pain and boost your overall health.
So what are you waiting for? Here's your comprehensive guide on how to start – and stick with – an exercise program:
Get Ready…
Before you lace up your sneakers, follow these steps to make sure you safely jump-start your new routine.
Check in with your doctor. Let your rheumatologist and general practitioner know that you're going to start exercising. She may advise against specific activities because of your medical history, says Cedric Bryant, PhD, chief science officer of the American Council on Exercise in San Diego.
"Ask your doctor for specific suggestions, including how long and hard you should exercise," says Bryant. Your doctor may be able to refer you to exercise programs in your area. "If she's unable to do so, seek the help of a physical therapist or certified professional trainer who has extensive experience working with people with arthritis."
Set Modest Goals to Start. Even once you know you're ready to make a change, there's still one unanswered question: How do I get started? The best advice: Start small. "It's great to have big dreams, like losing 100 pounds, but it's more important to set small, attainable goals at first. Otherwise, you may get discouraged," says Rick Van Haveren, PhD, a sports psychologist in Atlanta.
Thirty minutes of exercise still counts if you break it into three 10-minute increments throughout a day. If you're not quite bold enough to stroll into a gym and start working out, consider taking that first step at home. Try an exercise DVD, such as the Arthritis Foundation's "Take Control with Exercise," to help boost your confidence in getting active.
And don't be afraid to aim for shorter-term successes, like always using the stairs instead of using the elevator at the office or walking for 30 minutes straight without stopping. These are all equally important achievements and each deserves recognition.
Find your courage. Embarking on a fitness program can be a challenge for anyone, but especially for people who know making that first move will likely be somewhat daunting. Don't let fear prevent you from taking action to reduce pain and improve function. You may have to dig deep for the courage to get started, but you know you'll feel better once you do. Think back to other challenges you've faced and how you rose to them. Are there any people you admire who have faced a similar challenge? How can you learn from them and challenge yourself as they did?
Know What to Wear. Perhaps the most important thing you'll need is a supportive but comfortable pair of shoes – and good fit is paramount. Visit a running or walking store to get properly fitted. A good walking or running shoes will serve your needs for most aerobic and strength-training workouts. It's OK to walk in a running shoe, but best not to run in walking shoes. When shoe shopping, wear the socks you plan to wear during workouts and try the shoes for at least 10 minutes in the store.
Loose-fitting clothing such as t-shirts, cotton shorts, sweatpants and sweatshirts are fine to start out. But if you think you'll be sweating or working on gym equipment, form-fitting, perspiration-wicking attire will keep you dry and is less likely to get caught on the equipment's moving parts. If you're self-conscious about your weight, wear clothing that you feel comfortable in. Plus-size workout clothing and swimsuits are available at department stores or discount stores such as Wal-Mart and online. Check out the Plus Size Yellow Pages.
If you plan to get your workout rolling on a bike, go to a bicycle shop and get help selecting a bike that fits you and your riding style. A helmet, gel-padded gloves and a comfy seat also will deter injury.
Get Set …
Now that you're ready to get going, set a plan you can stick with. Here are some strategies that will help bring out your inner exercise enthusiast.
Don't go it alone. If you find exercise tedious or lonely, you're less likely to stick with it. "Ask a friend or significant other to join you. Exercise feels less like exercise when it's a social event," says Bryant. You're also more likely to stick with your commitment – to exercise and to your partner. If you have an active dog, take it for a stroll. Look into group walks or arthritis exercise classes – activities that make working out more of a fun social event and less of a chore.
Reward yourself. Research shows that when people are rewarded for "good behavior" – including exercise – they feel better about it and are more likely to repeat it. "Instead of rewarding yourself with food, do something that builds on your new healthy habits. For example, book a massage or a pedicure, [or go] window shopping at the mall with a friend," says Stiskal.
Commit to the cause. Make physical activity a non-negotiable part of your day. "Schedule it in your calendar as you would a doctor's appointment, and do everything you can to stick to your plan," says Van Haveren. "It's all too easy to fall off the fitness wagon when you start skipping workouts. I recommend trying to exercise for at least 10 minutes, even on bad days.
Pick the right time. "You'll enjoy your workout more if you don't do it when your symptoms are at their worst," says Bryant. "For example, if you're most stiff when you wake up, then exercise after work. Or if you're exhausted at the end of the day, work out in the morning."
Shop around. Does the very idea of a gym make you break out into a cold sweat? You aren't alone. But if you think all gyms are filled with nothing but toned and thin people, think again. Take a tour or accept a trial membership at a variety of gyms in your area. You may find several that suit you. Explore specialized health clubs such as Curves, a chain of gyms for women. At Curves, women of all sizes, ages and fitness levels perform circuit training with instruction from a coach.
Certain forms of exercise are particularly effective for individuals with arthritis. Here are five you may want to consider.
Walking. There's a reason it's America's favorite workout: "It's safe for almost everyone, even those with severe arthritis. The only equipment it requires is a pair of comfortable, supportive shoes; and it involves zero training," says Dr. Wright.
Where and when you walk are also important considerations. If walking a hilly route is too strenuous stick with level ground. Try an indoor mall or gym with a flat track so you can walk safely and comfortably. Explore large churches, YMCAs or community centers in your area that may have indoor tracks good for walking in any weather.
To get the most from your walking workout, consider the Arthritis Foundation's Walk With Ease program. It helps you develop a walking plan suited for your needs, helps you stay motivated and teaches you to exercise safely. You can do it in a group with a trained instructor, or on your own with guidance from a book that provides instructions, checklists, progress charts and other helpful information. Because it's an evidence-based program, it's safe and effective for people with arthritis.
Water workouts. "Swimming or water aerobics are especially great for people who are heavier or who have advanced arthritis," says C. Thomas Vangsness Jr., MD, chief of sports medicine at the Los Angeles County University & Southern California Medical Center. "If you can find a heated pool, all the better – warm water almost instantly relieves painful joints."
The Arthritis Foundation is the leading organization
providing support and funding research to improve the
lives of individuals with arthritis. You can help!

Nate Berg is a freelance reporter and a former staff writer for CityLab. He lives in Los Angeles.
On one side of Miami's Biscayne Boulevard is a thriving downtown, filled with condos and office towers. On the other side is the Atlantic Ocean, and in a few choice locations, nice waterfront parks. The division between – Biscayne – has four lanes in each direction and a 100-foot median in between that carries overhead rail tracks and parking lots. All in all, it's a pretty wide barrier between the people and the parks.

"It's not convenient or easy or neighborhood-accessible," says Tony Garcia, a principal at the Street Plans Collaborative, an urban planning, design, and advocacy firm.
Instead of trying to cross the barrier, Garcia tried to bring the park closer to the people, temporarily converting the median into a pop-up public park. In partnership with the engineering and architecture firm C3TS, Garcia coordinated with the city's parking authority to take over a 60-space lot for a week to lay down sod and put up benches. It will be open for just five days, closing Sunday, March 4.
"There's no signage. We didn't put anything that said 'please come into our event' because we don't want it to be an event. It's just a piece of infrastructure," Garcia says. "We're trying to say that this is a really low cost, easy way of getting park space now for the residents of downtown in anticipation of more permanent changes later on."
And Garcia says those permanent changes could be coming. The more exposure people have to different ideas about using the median space, the more demand there will be for a new use. He says both the public and the political interest is there, and he's hoping that this temporary park will encourage more people to get behind the idea of replacing the parking lots. He says that many of the spaces aren't even needed anyway.

"You would think that by taking 60 spaces out of commission that we would squeeze demand on other lots nearby, and that just hasn't been our experience," Garcia says. "It's very promising."
He says he's even had support from the city's parking authority.
"In the scale of the parking requirements for a downtown area, the amount of parking that we're sacrificing is a drop in the bucket," Garcia says. "It's negligible, and they see that."
Garcia did have to pay to use the spaces, though – a cost of about $7,000 that was covered by a grant. All the sod, seating and outdoor umbrellas were temporarily donated. Even the sod – watered every other day by the fire department – will be returned to the donor after the park is dismantled.
Overall, Garcia says the project has created a successful temporary public space. Transitioning to a permanent redesign of the parking lot and others like it on Biscayne, though, will not be as easy as laying out a few Adirondack chairs.
"The real resistance we're going to get is from the Florida Department of Transportation, which is responsible for that road," Garcia says. In the past, the department has tried to dissuade local politicians from proposing a possible new life in the median.
"They've already brought up issues of speed and volume of the street and level of service and the same old traffic jargon that we hear when we try to do traffic calming projects around the country," says Garcia.
But after a week's turn as a park, the parking lot may be different in enough locals' eyes to create a strong enough demand for something new to happen in this otherwise uninviting space.

Sunday's episode of Fox's television show King Of The Hill, entitled "Ladies And Gentrification," was nothing short of brilliant. In the episode, Peggy Hill is having problems selling a house to a hipster because none of the homes she has shown him are "real" enough for him. That is until Peggy agrees to meet Hank at his friend Enrique's home in a Mexican neighborhood. Peggy brings her client along, as she is in the middle of showing the hipster homes to buy. Once the hipster sees the neighborhood, he wants to live there and Peggy closes a deal.
Soon Peggy is selling homes to other hipsters in Enrique's Mexican neighborhood. The fruit stands and Goodwill are replaced by art galleries and trendy stores. Even Enrique's favorite place to get fish tacos changes their menu, replacing the fried fish tacos with Salmon tacos. Soon Enrique has to move because he is being priced out of his own neighborhood.
There is a great scene in which Hank and Enrique are having fish tacos when a group of hipsters enter. They give Hank attitude because he's neither a hipster nor a Mexican, calling him Gringo. The too cool hipsters say hello to Enrique, to which he says to Hank, "They always act like they know me but I don't know who they are!"
The episode touches upon many issues of gentrification that I thought were brilliant. One is that most hipsters want what they cannot have. While most poor people are trying to get out of a barrio, the hipsters want to get in, simply because they think it's cool. Their adventures or 'realness" are things that most people try to escape. Another thing is how they showed how hipsters love the realness of an ethic neighborhood but do very to little preserve the culture, often eliminating ethic businesses to bring in their own hipster culture. Then there was the hipsters that feel that they are "down" with the people simply because they live in the neighborhood, without actually getting to know their neighbors that were there before them. For the most part, many hipsters fraternized only among other hipsters from the same neighborhood.
Lastly, what I thought was cool about the episode was that it was never a race issue. Hank is white and Enrique is Mexican and they get along because they are good people. Hank is not the enemy. Many Latino hipsters have sold out many a neighborhood for their own profit. I have nothing in common with them other than ethnicity. Give me a fish taco and a beer with Hank Hill any day.

The information provided here is meant to give you a general idea about each of the medications listed below. Only the most general side effects are included, so ask your health care provider if you need to take any special precautions. Use each of these medications only as recommended by your health care provider, and according to the instructions provided. If you have further questions about usage or side effects, contact your health care provider.
There are no medications to cure sickle cell disease. Instead, medications are given to treat symptoms and complications, improve the body's ability to fight infection, and boost the body's production of red blood cells.
Prescription Medications
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Indomethacin
- Ketorolac
- Ibuprofen
- Naproxen
- Tramadol
- Hydrocodone
- Buprenorphine
- Tapendatol
- Morphone
- Oxycodone
- Hydromorphone
- Methadone
- Fentanyl
Over-the-Counter Medications
Prescription Medications
Hydroxyurea is a chemotherapy agent often used to treat cancers, such as leukemia. It appears to help the body produce slightly more normal red blood cells that are slightly more flexible and don't block blood vessels as frequently. Most people who take hydroxyurea need fewer blood transfusions than those who do not.
Hydroxyurea affects your immune system. While you are taking it, don't get any immunizations without reminding your healthcare provider that you are taking this drug.
Possible side effects include:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Increased chance of infection
Penicillin is given routinely to children between the ages of 2 months and 5 years who have sickle cell disease. Penicillin can prevent these children from developing infections, especially pneumococcal pneumonia. It is sometimes given to adults, too.
Possible side effects include:
- Diarrhea
- Allergic rash
- Interference with birth control pills
- False results on blood sugar tests in people with diabetes
Common names include:
- Indomethacin
- Ketorolac
- Ibuprofen
- Naproxen
NSAIDs are given to treat pain. Although some types are available over-the-counter, your healthcare provider may choose to give you a prescription so that you can take a higher dose.
Take your doses with food because many of these medications irritate the stomach. Don't drink alcohol while you are taking NSAIDs.
Possible side effects include:
- Lightheadedness
- Stomach irritation
- Peptic ulcers
Common names include:
- Vicodin
- Hysingla
- Dolophine
- MS Contin
- Dolophine
- OxyContin
- Dilaudid
- Fentanyl
- Nucynta
- Butrans
Opioids are given to treat pain. They can slow your breathing. You should not drink alcohol or take other pain medications or sedatives at the same time.
Possible side effects include:
- Lightheadedness
- Sedation
- Drowsiness
- Nausea, vomiting
- Constipation
- Dry mouth
Over-the-Counter Medications
Aspirin helps control inflammation and decrease pain. Aspirin can be irritating to the stomach, so take it with food.
Because aspirin has blood-thinning properties, always remind your healthcare providers that you are taking it before dental or medical procedures, or surgeries.
NOTE: Aspirin is not recommended for children with a current or recent viral infection. Check with your doctor before giving a child aspirin.
Possible side effects include:
- Stomach irritation
- Ringing in the ears
- Exacerbation of asthma
- Increased bleeding time
Special Considerations
If you are taking medications, follow these general guidelines:
- Take your medication as directed. Do not change the amount or the schedule.
- Do not stop taking prescription medication without talking to your doctor.
- Do not share prescription medication.
- Ask what results and side effects to expect. Report them to your doctor.
- Talk to a doctor or pharmacist if you are taking more than one medication. Some medications can be dangerous when mixed. This includes over-the-counter medication and herb or dietary supplements.
- Plan ahead for refills so you don't run out.
When to Contact Your Doctor
Contact your doctor if:
- Your symptoms worsen
- You develop a new skin rash
- You develop a fever

I keep track of all my cooking in little black book, writing everything down as there have been too many instances of "Wow that was great – what was in it?". A dash of this and a handful of that all seemed so simple at the time, but by the next day they're hard to recall.
Reading back over it is a strange and interesting experience. I can see what I cooked for whom and on what occasion. The successes and failures, the phases of eating I went through, the weeks of Asian food followed by French and British, Spanish or Mexican – it's all there.
Pulled pork tacos with smoky salsa sit alongside frozen plum yogurt. The latest pages contain various brownie recipes I tried to get just right.
There are empty pages, too, where I've meant to write up things the next day or revisit dishes long since forgotten.
The pulled pork recipe is there, but a page sits blank where the salsa should have gone. And sadly the whole experience is so far in the past I can't even remember the name of the chillies I made it with.
An experiment for another time and a new culinary adventure…

Apple chief Steve Jobs is recovering from a secret liver transplant he had in Tennessee about two months ago and may only work part-time when he returns later this month, The Wall Street Journal reported on its website late Friday.
The Journal did not detail its sourcing for the surgery claim, though it reported that some on Apple's board knew of the operation.
Early Saturday morning, CNBC's Maria Bartiromo confirmed the WSJ.com report from two sources, while her CNBC colleague, Jim Goldman, confirmed with the FAA that Jobs' jet flew from San Jose to Memphis in late March.
U.S. & World
"Steve continues to look forward to returning at the end of June, and there's nothing further to say," Jobs' spokeswoman told the Journal.
Jobs, who has been credited for turning around the company he co-founded since his return in 1997, was diagnosed with a rare form of Pancreatic cancer in 2004.
He went on medical leave nearly six months ago, citing a hormone imbalance at the time.
Apple shareholders have voiced frustration at the way the company has managed news of Job's illness, and have periodically punished Apple's stock.
A doctor who specializes in Pancreatic cancer surgeries told the Journal that 75 percent of patients with Job's ailment would see their cancer spread at some point in their lifetime -- usually to the liver.
Jobs may have to ease back into the job for a couple months when he returns to allow time for a full recovery, according to the Journal.
The company's chief operating officer, Tim Cook, could take on a "more encompassing role," a source described as "familiar with Apple's thinking" said. Cook could get a seat on Apple's board, the Journal reported.

Avalanche final player grades – Milan Hejduk: B
2009-10 statistics
GP: 56. G: 23. A: 21. PIM: 10. Plus-minus: +6. PPG: 8. PPA: 9. SOG: 153. Shooting percentage:; 15 percent. Average ice time: 19:01. Hits: 30. Blocked shots: 21. Giveaways: 13. Takeaways: 32.
The Avalanche had a 1-0 lead entering Game 2 with the Sharks and had a one-goal lead with under a minute left in Game 2. They won Game 3, and lost heartbreakers in Games 4 and 6.
How much of a difference would a healthy Milan Hejduk have made in this series, considering he missed most of the final four games? I think it might have pushed it to seven games, at least, and you never known in a Game 7.
For the pundits who think the Avs were just clearly the inferior team in the series, and that, of course, the large disparity in penalties and power plays was all because of that, it really wasn't the case.
Yes, the Sharks were better. But I maintain forever that they got a lot of fortunate breaks in that series, not the least of which was the officiating. And some of the armchair media people who say otherwise either didn't watch the series too well, or are just so afraid of being called a homer that they automatically overcompensate in their assessments.
The loss of Hejduk, after he ran into Paul Stastny's shoulder in the first minute of Game 3, was the toughest break the Avs got in the postseason. He suffered a concussion and a shoulder injury, the latter of which required surgery.
Hejduk's season was pretty good when he was in there, but injuries were again too much of the story for him. He missed a good chunk of the year with recurring knee problems, and an occasionally wonky back.
Hejduk should return this coming season, and he's slated to make $3 million – a $1 million reduction from this year's pay.
He's been a top-quality, classy, dependable player here for a long time now, and I don't see any reason why he can't have another good year. The proviso, of course, is his health.
Hejduk still has a quick wrist shot, good enough speed and good hockey smarts. He's a skilled, offensive player. Not a banger and grinder or Frank Selke candidate. He's scored 20 or more goals his last 10 seasons – including one Rocket Richard Trophy.
He'll probably have his number retired some day. I believe he's earned that already. Yeah, it might help the cause to get over the 400-goal mark, and right now he's at 335. At 34, I think he could play at least two more years and maybe get there, although the days of 40-50 goals might be over.

The long-running feud between the administration of President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and critical news outlets deepened. The Supreme Court ruled that provisions of a 2009 broadcast law that would require some media companies, most notably the critical media conglomerate Grupo Clarín, to divest holdings—in theory, to break up monopolies—were constitutional. Beyond the legislation, the climate remained polarized, with officials publicly berating Clarín and other media groups, and those outlets criticizing all administration activities. The government continued with its policy of punishing critical media outlets and rewarding favorable ones with official advertising, and appeared to extend its advertising war to the commercial realm by reportedly forbidding supermarkets to advertise in newspapers as part of a price-freezing measure intended to combat inflation. Critical media alleged the tactic was meant to further harm outlets that don't receive state advertising, a claim the government denied. President Kirchner, after 10 years of dominating Argentine politics along with her husband, the late President Néstor Kirchner, faced challenges to her government in late 2013. The president's party suffered significant defeats in congressional elections, judicial reforms failed, corruption allegations surfaced in the administration, and the president suffered health problems. Press freedom advocates were dismayed by a ruling on an Argentine defamation case by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights—part of the human rights protection system of the Organization of American States—that decided for the first time that a criminal sanction for defamation did not affect freedom of expression.
The local press group Foro de Periodismo Argentino, or FOPEA, documented dozens of press freedom violations between January and September 2013.
The abuses included threats, assaults, attacks against media facilities, confiscation of equipment, obstruction of coverage, judicial harassment, police harassment, censorship, and discriminatory distribution of official advertising, restrictive legislation, and arbitrary detention.
|Local and federal officials
|Security forces
A court ruled in June that the federal government had discriminated against the Clarín-owned TV network Channel 13 in its allocation of official advertising. The decision cited a 2011 Supreme Court ruling that ordered equitable distribution of state advertising.
|State advertising for Clarín television station Canal 13, January to May, 2013
US $2.4 million
|State advertising for América TV, January to May, 2013
US $5.6 million
|State advertising for Telefé, January to May, 2013
US $6.5 million
|State advertising for Canal 9, January to May, 2013
In a closely watched decision, the Supreme Court ruled against media conglomerate Grupo Clarín and said that provisions of a broadcast law requiring divestiture of significant holdings were constitutional. Clarín has fought the law in court since it was passed in 2009.
Proponents of the broadcast law say it will curb monopolies and democratize media ownership, while critics allege its real purpose is to weaken Clarín, which has been engaged since 2008 in a nasty, wide-ranging dispute with the government.
October 2009
|New broadcast legislation is passed that requires Clarín and other companies to divest some holdings within one year. Clarín immediately files lawsuits contesting its constitutionality.
December 2009
|A judge in Mendoza suspends implementation of the law while the challenges are pending.
October 2010
|The Supreme Court finds other aspects of the law may take effect but upholds the stay on divestiture.
May 2012
|The Supreme Court rules that the divestiture injunction expires in December 2012. The government says that it will enforce the law and that Clarín must divest.
December 6, 2012
|A civil court extends the injunction until the underlying constitutionality issue is resolved.
December 14, 2012
|A federal civil and commercial judge rules the provisions are constitutional. Clarín immediately appeals to a federal appeals court.
April 2013
|A federal appeals court upholds the law but rules that the divestiture measures are unconstitutional. The government appeals to the Supreme Court.
October 2013
|The Supreme Court rules the measures are constitutional. The government says Clarín must divest immediately. Clarín argues that the injunction means it still has a year to divest per the legislation.
November 2013
|Clarín unexpectedly presents a divestiture plan but says it will continue to pursue judicial avenues for its claims in local and possibly international courts. The government says it will analyze the plan and decide whether to approve it within 120 days.
After losing its protracted court battle, Grupo Clarín presented a plan to the government regulatory body under which it would divide its holdings in line with the broadcast law. The plan divides its broadcast properties into six independent companies, with 70 percent of its holdings going to four individual shareholders, including Grupo Clarín owner Ernestina Herrera de Noble, and its CEO, Héctor Magnetto. The six companies do not include the group's significant print media outlets or other assets, which fall outside the broadcast law.
Analysts debated whether in effect this would limit Clarín's holdings or allow it to grow even bigger under the guise of separate ownership.

I Thanked God For My Trash Today!!
I saw the TV guide part of the newspaper and was grateful for a TV for entertainment any time I want, and company when I'm alone, and distraction from my pain.
Posted by Bluebirdy at 12:59
Welcome back, sheila. We really have to stop and look around us and see how blessed we are to appreciate life now. We gave to count our blessings each day. Life is beautiful, challenging yes, but that's life. I hope i can also leave you some sort of a voicemail too.
Pia said... Thu Oct 31, 12:35:00 am GMT-6
It's good that you are back to blogging again. I'm sure your readers missed you so much like sis Pia. I will still be in limbo in blogging and will still concentrate on my Facebook account. Thanks for the post. God bless you always my dear friend.
Mel Avila Alarilla said... Thu Oct 31, 03:46:00 pm GMT-6
This is beautiful, Sheila!
Thanks you for your lovely and loving email--I have not been blogging for a while so I am glad you told me about this post!
I will post a new poem as soon as I can find a photo to go with it--hopefully today.

Hello Sheila,
Greetings and good wishes.
Very useful post.Most of the time we take things for granted and crave for things we don't have. We are blessed in many ways compared to millions in the world.
Best wishes,

Last week was a quiet one for injuries. That wasn't the case this week. Plenty of names big and small were among the walking wounded:
1. Robert Griffin III left the Washington Redskins' 24-17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons with a concussion. We refuse to call any concussion mild. The rookie quarterback expressed some optimism about playing next week after the game. The Redskins, meanwhile, could get in trouble for their injury reporting during the game.
2. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel suffered a head injury in a 9-6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Chiefs fans cheered. Ugh.
NFL Replay

3. The Green Bay Packers lost three key starters in a wild 30-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Tight end Jermichael Finley (shoulder), defensive tackle B.J. Raji (ankle) and running back Cedric Benson (foot) all were hurt. Finley's injury looks the least serious. He's optimistic he'll play next week. Benson left the building in a walking boot. Raji will undergo an MRI exam Monday morning on the left ankle he injured in Sunday's loss, a source with knowledge of the situation told NFL Network's Steve Wyche. No significant damage is expected, according to the source.
4. The return of Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu didn't last long. He re-injured his calf early in a 16-14 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Linebacker LaMarr Woodley also hurt his right hamstring.
5. Cincinnati Bengals running back Bernard Scott hurt his knee during a 17-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins. There is possible anterior cruciate ligament damage and fear he could be out for the season, according to reports. The Bengals will have to lean heavily on BenJarvus Green-Ellis.
6. Tennessee Titans backup running back Javon Ringer was carted off the field with a knee injury in a 30-7 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. It appeared he might have torn some ligaments. It was not pretty.
7. Colts defensive end Robert Mathis hurt his knee and did not return against the Packers.
8. New York Giants running back Andre Brown suffered a concussion in a 41-27 victory over the Cleveland Browns and did not return.

Vatican upholds closing of Donora area church site
The Vatican has upheld a decision by Pittsburgh Bishop David Zubik to close a 107-year-old church over the objections of parishioners who appealed, citing its historic ties to the Slavic immigrants who built it.
The Pittsburgh diocese closed St. Dominic Church in Donora last year, saying it was too costly to maintain or repair and that Our Lady of the Valley Parish - which used the building as one of two worship sites - wouldn't be harmed by the move.
Six parishioners appealed, but the diocese says the Vatican found "no canonical basis in law or in fact" to keep the church open.
The diocese says that means the church about 20 miles south of Pittsburgh can now be sold but "not for any purpose contrary to the doctrinal or moral teachings of the church."

ST PAUL, Minn., Feb 26 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama announced on Wednesday a four-year, $302 billion plan to repair the country's crumbling roads and bridges, but the proposal, which relies on tax reform for funding, is not expected to gain traction on Capitol Hill.
Congress faces a Sept. 30 deadline to renew federal funding for transportation programs, and the Highway Trust Fund that helps pay for road and bridge projects is teetering on insolvency.
"If Congress doesn't finish a transportation bill by the end of the summer, we could see construction projects stop in their tracks, machines sitting idle, workers off the job," Obama said, while standing in a refurbished train and bus station.
The highway fund has traditionally been replenished through a tax on fuel. But it no longer collects enough revenue to cover infrastructure needs and Congress has all but ruled out hiking the 18.4-cents-a-gallon gasoline tax.
Obama's four-year plan would instead use revenues raised by ending some tax breaks, freeing up $150 billion for transportation. But that could only happen through corporate tax reform, a political long shot ahead of November's mid-term elections.
Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner told reporters that a bailout for the highway fund likely would be out of the question for his caucus.
"Meeting with the president yesterday, this is one of the issues that was discussed. We've got to find a funding mechanism to fund our infrastructure needs," the Ohio Republican said.
"I wish I could report to you that we've found it, but we haven't," Boehner added.
Senator Barbara Boxer, head of the committee that oversees work on the highway bill, said on Wednesday that Obama's plan was not likely to pass Congress.
"I think it's good, but I don't hold out hope for it," she told a conference of state transportation officials in Washington.
But Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx told reporters traveling with Obama that it was important for all sides to start talking about how to avert what he called a transportation funding "cliff."
"There will be voices that say one thing or another can't get done," Foxx said. "I think the most important thing is that the ideas need to be put on the table."
Obama's plan would fill the gap in the Highway Trust Fund and would invest an additional $90 billion in infrastructure projects, Foxx said.
Separately on Wednesday, the top Republican tax writer in Congress proposed a tax reform overhaul that included dedicating $126.5 billion to the Highway Trust Fund for infrastructure investments over eight years.
In his plan, House Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp said the money for infrastructure would come from reforms in the tax code.
Reaction to the plan was mixed, but the White House said Camp's approach was encouraging.
Meanwhile in St. Paul, Obama also launched a competition for $600 million in grants for transportation projects through a program that leverages funds from the private sector and state and local governments. The spending has already been approved by Congress.
It is the sixth round of grants for the program, called Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER), which has so far funded 270 projects with $3.5 billion.
Obama said the grants would result in jobs for construction workers hit hard by the recession.
"We've got ports that aren't ready for the next generation of supertankers. We've got more than 100,000 bridges that are old enough to qualify for Medicare," he said.
"Nobody knows better than Minnesotans, when we've gone through a winter like this - roads are wrecked, full of potholes, all across the country," Obama said.

Another collection due out shortly is Glimma by Lotta Jansdotter, also for Windham fabrics. I am such a fan of Lotta and her scandinavian minimalism design. I especially love those trees. I'm thinking these will need to be part of a new bag, similar to my Bella bag from last spring.
Finally, I got my first up close and personal look at Moda's new Honeycomb precuts. Can I say, brilliant? These are laser cut (meaning straight, non-fraying edges) 6″ (from point to opposite point) hexagons. They come in a stacks of 40 and you can get them in one solid color or in prints by collection, like charm packs. They are so neato.
The coolest part is that each stack of honeycombs comes with a sturdy plastic template with little holes at each point.
These holes can be used for quickly marking the 1/4″ point where you will start and stop your Y-seams when you piece your hexagons. (For a great machine-piecing-hexagons tutorial, visit Kati). SO COOL.

Comedian Jon Stewart and his wife have picked up a rogue bull that escaped from a New York City slaughterhouse Friday morning and ran loose on a college campus in Queens, according to police.
It's the third animal set for slaughter to get loose in Queens this year.
The Angus bull was being unloaded from a truck at a slaughterhouse near York College in Jamaica, Queens, when it broke free and ran off around 10 a.m., according to the NYPD.
Video from the scene showed the bull running through a field. At one point, the bull can be seen charging a person as several other onlookers run away.
Officers caught up with the escaped bovine on a campus green and used a rope to lasso the animal. They fired two tranquilizer darts into the bull's rump to subdue it.
Police took the bull to Animal Care & Control in Brooklyn, according to police. The animal was in good condition, animal control officials said.
Stewart and his wife Tracey, animal advocates who last year announced plans to transform their New Jersey farm into a center for neglected animals, went to pick the bull up and bring it to the Farm Sanctuary's shelter in Watkins Glen, New York, according to a spokeswoman for the shelter they are affiliating.
The location will become the fourth property affiliated with Farm Sanctuary, an animal advocacy organization that was founded in 1986 to combat factory farming and encourage awareness about farm animals. It's set to open in 2017.
York campus police and administrators have declined requests for comment.
Another bovine escaped a slaughterhouse in January and ran through the streets of Queens before police eventually wrangled the animal in a parking garage. The escapee — nicknamed "Freddie" after Queen frontman Freddie Mercury — was taken to an animal sanctuary in New Jersey.
That same week, NYPD officers paid $40 to bail out a goat that escaped another slaughterhouse, then took the animal, called "Merrick," to a rescue facility on Long Island.

Castel dell' Ovo
Borgo Marinari - Tel. 081.2400055
Castel dellOvo stands on the ancient Megaride islet. One of the imaginative Neapolitan tales tells that it was named after an egg that Virgilio hid inside a cage in the basements of the castle The place where the egg was kept was heavely locked because all the facts and the fortune of Castle Marino dipended on the
egg. Since that moment the destiny of the Castle,and of the whole city of Naples, has been bound to that egg. The chronicles quote that at the time of Queen Giovanna I, the castle was seriously damaged because the huge arch joining the two rocks on which the castle stood, collapsed; the Queen had to solemny declare that the egg had been replaced in order to avoid the panic in town for fear of new and greater disasters. It is the mythical tomb of Partenope and Virgilio saw it when Lucio Licinio Lucullo lived there. The Normans, and later the Angiovines, turned it into a military fortress, as it stands today.

Dr. Li Wang of Britain's University of Warwick shows a prototype of Warwick Warp, a biometric system that enables the identification of distorted and partial fingerprints. Photo: Courtesy of Alexis Madrigal Scientists in Great Britain hope you may never have to worry about losing your keys or forgetting your password again.
University of Warwick researchers have unveiled a new fingerprint recognition technology, which allows them to "unwarp" distorted prints. The technology could prove especially important in mass-market biometric access systems, which have remained elusive because of small but significant rates of false positives and negatives.
Fingerprint recognition came into wide use in forensic investigations in the early 20th century. Ever since, sci-fi writers and scientists have dreamed of using the unique skin contours on our fingertips to tell our machines we really are who we say we are. The problem is that the number of errors has just been too high.
"In real settings, the best algorithms I've seen are still talking about an equal error rate of 3 to 4 percent," said Dr. Venu Govindaraju, director of the Center for Unified Biometrics and Sensors at SUNY-Buffalo. "In good settings, we're looking at 0.2 to 0.3 percent." (The equal error rate is when the sensitivity of a test is adjusted to the point where the proportion of false-positive results equals the proportion of false-negative results.)
Three percent may be good enough for a low-security location like a public library, but nowhere near good enough for military-grade installations or even airport security.
Most current technologies focus on what the experts call Level 1 and Level 2 features. Level 1 is the general pattern of your fingerprint (you remember: arch, loop, whorl). Level 2 includes the specifics of the way the contours end and split. The problem is that a host of environmental factors can throw noise into the data. One major noise source is that people mash their fingers onto sensors with varying amounts of pressure, generating non-linear stretching.
"The skin stretches differently depending on how hard you press, which moves the Level 2 features around," explained Govindaraju.
It's the same idea that web forms use to defeat spammers: Distort letters a certain amount and a person – like a CSI or you – can recognize the pattern, while most electronic systems are defeated. Good for the cleanliness of WiSci's comment section, but bad for biometric researchers.
Enter Warwick Warp, the brainchild of three British computer scientists. The company's received seed capital from Oxford Early Investments, and it's on the prowl for another million dollars of equity financing. The scientist have come up with a system that recognizes the distortions introduced by those disobedient individuals who don't treat the sensor like a lab instrument.
"We're trying to model the variations and therefore minimize them," said Dr. Li Wang, chief technological officer of Warwick Warp. The company's algorithm filters out the environmental distortion and then unwarps the contours of the skin. Drawing on our distorted-letter analogy, it helps reflatten the letter into a shape recognizable by any spambot.
It's a promising technology, but one that is still unproven. "There's some merit to that idea," said Govindaraju. "But I've never seen real numbers."
We might see some real numbers very soon: The company plans a commercial release within six months.
Though it's not the company's focus, the Warp technology could have applications in forensics. After all, the system is designed to work with the kinds of non-ideal prints that unintentional situations tend to generate. The ability of the software to work with partial or smudged prints could increase the number of latent prints that investigators can use among those they find in the field. All those smudged prints that Horatio from CSI: Miami now tosses aside could now become fodder for his famous one-liners.
Other companies, meanwhile, are looking at other ways of dealing with the mashable-finger problem. Some suggest that fingers shouldn't make any contact with the scanner. Mitsubishi introduced the first such model back in 2005, but with the hefty price tag of about $4,500.
When it comes to the mass-market rollout of biometrics in access systems, fingerprinting technology is probably only one piece of the puzzle. Face-recognition and iris-scanning products offer some advantages over fingerprinting but are much more expensive. They could end up serving the high-end security markets, while simpler technologies with higher error tolerance just keep us from getting locked out of our cars. The ultimate solution, though, might be a biometric mashup, like using a fingerprint scan and facial recognition.
"The way biometrics is going is combining biometrics," said Govindaraju. "Why use just one?"
No story about biometrics is complete without mentioning privacy concerns. As they say in business, if you can measure it, you can manage it. And not everyone wants to be managed, especially if the government or a big corporation has the calipers. As the Electronic Frontier Foundation summed it up, "Biometric technology is inherently individuating and interfaces easily to database technology, making privacy violations easier and more damaging."
The privacy impact, however, will remain small until the technology becomes widespread. And because companies may actually prefer that you carry around their branded plastic, there's no guarantee that it will go mass-market, even in the long term.

The Miami heat failed to win a game for the first time since a February 1 loss against the Pacers. The next Sunday, Super Bowl Sunday, the Heat beat the Toronto Raptors 100-85 and kept on winning until tonight.
I've been staring at a blank screen for 15 minutes trying to figure out what to make of it all and here is the only significance I can find: it is damned impressive that the Heat spent essentially two months playing basketball without losing a game. They would play three, sometimes four games a week and they won all of them. They lost tonight because it was bound to happen and according to Luol Deng, the shorthanded Bulls were a motivated bunch tonight.
On Friday, the Heat get to play another streak-busting team in the New Orleans Hornets. They could be looking at their first losing streak since January.
