Cherries and Town share spoils
Donal McDermott equalised for Bournemouth in a 1-1 draw at home to Huddersfield in the first leg of their League One play-off semi-final.
Last Updated: 14/05/11 6:57pm
Donal McDermott equalised for Bournemouth in a 1-1 draw at home to Huddersfield in the first leg of their League One play-off semi-final.
Veteran Terriers midfielder Kevin Kilbane, 34, opened the scoring at Dean Court in the 22nd minute on Saturday with a fine header from Gary Roberts' right-wing cross.
Thirteen minutes later, Terriers goalkeeper Ian Bennett made a fine save to deny Danny Ings from the penalty spot but the Cherries rallied in the second half and were rewarded when midfielder McDermott fired home a fine left-footed strike from 25 yards.
The return leg takes place at the Galpharm Stadium on Wednesday and Lee Clark's men, who extended their remarkable unbeaten run to 26 games, will be quietly confident of booking their place in the play-off final at Old Trafford later this month.
They did not hit top gear and it was Bournemouth, whose form has fluctuated since Eddie Howe jumped ship to join Burnley and Lee Bradbury was placed in charge, fashioned the first opening in the ninth minute.
Defender Jason Pearce headed the ball over the crossbar from 12 yards and the Cherries went close again in the 16th minute when McDermott hit a shot from 18 yards which Antony Kay blocked.
Huddersfield gradually steadied themselves and opened the scoring in the 22nd minute when Kilbane powered home Roberts' cross with a fine header.
The Terriers sought to extend their advantage in the 25th minute when midfielder Scott Arfield was afforded the time and space to advance forward and struck a shot from 20 yards.
However, Bournemouth could have been level in the 35th minute after Bennett brought down Rhoys Wiggins inside the penalty area.
Ings stepped up to the spot from 12 yards but Bennett made a fine parried save to thwart his right-footed effort.
Danny Ward, on loan at Huddersfield from Bolton, then hit a shot from 25 yards which Pearce did well to block.
The Terriers went close again in the 39th minute when Roberts hit a blistering drive from 25 yards which Bournemouth goalkeeper Shwan Jalal tipped over with a superb save.
Two minutes before the break, Roberts flighted an inswinging corner which Kay greeted with a firm header that flew just wide.
Yet Bournemouth began to enjoy more possession in the second half and were rewarded on the hour when the ball was worked to McDermott, who drove a low, left-footed shot into the net from 25 yards.
Bournemouth could have led three minutes later when Danny Hollands crossed and Anton Robinson headed wide from 12 yards.
Joey Gudjonsson twice threatened from distance for Huddersfield but the Cherries held firm to leave the tie finely poised ahead of the decisive second leg.

Right-Wing Sites Baselessly Accuse WH Of Leaking "Classified Information" To Filmmakers
Research ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN
Conservative websites are claiming a new release of documents show that the "White House" gave "classified information" to filmmaker Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal for their upcoming film about the Osama bin Laden raid. However, even the group that released those documents, Judicial Watch, does not claim that the "White House" gave Bigelow and Boal "classified information."
The Blaze, Human Events Accuse "Obama Administration" Of Serious Crime
The Blaze: "White House Let Hollywood Bigwigs Learn Classified Information So They Could Make Movie About Bin Laden Death." A post on The Blaze claimed that "the White House" "invited people in the entertainment industry" to get "entire treasure troves of classified information." [The Blaze, 5/23/12]
Human Events: "Obama Administration Leaks Classified Information To Makers Of Propaganda Film." A post on the conservative website Human Events claimed that the "[w]atchdog group Judicial Watch wanted some questions answered about the degree of access to classified information the White House granted to these very friendly filmmakers." [Human Events, 5/23/12]
But Judicial Watch Only Said "The Records" Show Filmmakers Were Given "Access"
Judicial Watch: Investigation Launched Following "Press Reports Suggesting That The Obama Administration May Have Leaked Classified Information." While the Judicial Watch press release says that its investigation was launched "following press reports suggesting that the Obama administration may have leaked classified information to the director," the release does not definitively cite a single example of classified information that was leaked. From the press release:
Judicial Watch, the organization that investigates and fights government corruption, announced today that it has obtained records from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) regarding meetings and communications between government agencies and Kathryn Bigelow, Academy Award-winning director of The Hurt Locker, and screenwriter Mark Boal. According to the records, the Obama Defense Department granted Bigelow and Boal access to a "planner, Operator and Commander of SEAL Team Six," which was responsible for the capture and killing of Osama bin Laden, to assist Bigelow prepare her upcoming feature film. [Judicial Watch, 5/22/12]
Bush Administration Also Gave Filmmakers Access For "Hollywood Productions"
LA Times:"The Access Bigelow And Boal Have Had ... Is Not Unheard Of." A post on an LA Times blog noted that a filmmaker was "granted an hour with President Bush" for a movie he produced about September 11:
The access Bigelow and Boal have had to CIA, DOD and other government officials is not unheard of for Hollywood productions. "Battleship" director Peter Berg embedded for a month with Navy SEALs in western Iraq as research for his upcoming SEAL film "Lone Survivor," and filmmaker Lionel Chetwynd was granted an hour with President Bush for a 2003 movie he wrote for Showtime, "DC 9/11: Time of Crisis."

Don't you just love competition?
First, Amazon and then Google launch services that let you upload music to their servers for streaming playback to almost any device. Sure, the music labels are miffed that they weren't allowed to give their blessings, but that's a minor issue – or not.
Then, Apple – the 900-pound gorilla of online music – comes along with iCloud and iTunes Match. These services are similar to those provided by Google Music Beta and Amazon Cloud Player. The iCloud part, which lets you download purchased iTunes music to any iOS device you own, is free. iTunes Match will charge you to match non-iTunes music to songs in that service's catalog, and then downloads an AAC song file to be stored on your computer for $25 a year.
Now, Amazon has responded to Apple's moves. On Wednesday, the company announced it was expanding how Cloud Player works. If you buy any of its Cloud Drive file storage plans, Amazon will give you unlimited storage for your music.
For example, if you purchase the 20-gigabyte-a-year file storage package, you can upload any amount of music free, and it won't count against the 20-GB cap.
And as if to hammer home that its enhancements are indeed aimed at countering Apple, Amazon unveiled an iPad version of the Cloud Player for music, rendered as a Web app.
Although there's no similarly formatted version for the iPhone or iPod touch, the technology that allows playback for songs works nevertheless. Go to the Cloud Player on your smaller iOS device and you can stream your songs from there.
If you've got an iPad that has 32- or 64-GB of storage, you may not have much use for this. But, if you're like me with a 16-GB model that can't hold all your music, this is a great service. For now, if you buy any music from AmazonMP3, you get a year's worth of 20-GB music storage for free. After that, you'll have to decide if it's worth at least $20 a year to store 20 GB of files and an unlimited amount of music.
Personally, I'm on the fence. Ask me when it's renewal time whether Cloud Storage is a "must have".
Amazon's deal is good for "a limited time", according to its news release.

The gang(s) from Fascinations (wonders created by physicists) & SimerLab (makers of floating things) were @The NYC Toy fair 2008 – I've seen the glowing ant farms before (called AntWorks) but seeing this many in one spot is pretty interesting. AntWorks is based on a 2003 NASA Space Shuttle experiment to study animal life in space and test how ants successfully tunnel in microgravity, now you can bring NASA's handiwork to your home/office with a kit. You can watch the ants live, work and tunnel in the nutritious and non-toxic gel as they create intricate tunnels and you can light them up, the tunnels – not the ants.
Also present, SimerLab, they make just about anything float – you've seen floating globes via magnetism, they do that and then some with their levitation devices and systems.

Valuing Women's Work in Agriculture
Globally, technological advancements have helped agriculture evolve to keep pace with an expanding human population, with more food being produced than ever before to meet world demand. But a less well-known trend has been the shift toward the "feminization" of agriculture, or the increased involvement of women in food production. Although this trend can empower women by providing a source of income and expertise, the dramatic shift in the agricultural workforce also has resulted in a shortage of labor and capital, and increases malnutrition and food insecurity in affected households.
|VOTE HERE to help Worldwatch empower women in agriculture all around the world.
The feminization of agriculture became apparent in the latter half of the 20th century, as violent conflict, HIV/AIDS, urban migration, and other developments led to a decline in rural male populations. As men's role in agriculture decreased, women took on more duties in agricultural production and its management. In Latin America, many women are now employed in large-scale agricultural processes, such as staffing packing plants and providing field labor.
In some regions of Africa, rural male populations are shrinking rapidly, leaving women to oversee food production. Between 1970 and 1990, Malawi's rural male population declined by 21.8 percent, whereas the female population fell by only 5.4 percent. In Nepal, the 2011 census revealed that approximately 9 out of every 10 people who left the country were men. Changing gender composition in rural areas is challenging women to run agricultural operations and households with little male help.
|Studies have revealed that, compared to male-run households, households run by females tend to be poorer, have smaller plots of land, and have less access to resources.
Yet women agriculturalists face additional obstacles. In many countries, the cultural norm is to deny women access to education from an early age, creating challenges to managing agricultural operations. Studies have revealed that, compared to male-run households, households run by females tend to be poorer, have smaller plots of land, and have less access to resources. Many women are now participating in food systems and markets that have traditionally been male-dominated, many of which depend on social capital and networks.
A United Nations report on the feminization of agriculture in Latin America finds that this trend reinforces traditional gender roles, with permanent jobs reserved for men and temporary jobs available to women. Despite women's increasing role in agriculture, their work continues to have a low social value, resulting in low wages and a lack of recognition. Social norms and a lack of policy attention to female roles create significant hurdles. In India, for example, women have poor access to land ownership and control over resources, and improved technology is often reserved for irrigated lands generally controlled by men.
In many African communities, there exists a socially determined ownership system, regardless of labor performance. Larger commodity operations, such as cattle, coffee, and tea, belong to men, while vegetable gardens and small livestock belong to women, despite the fact that women often provide more labor in both cases.
Read more:
Despite the increased female presence in agriculture, it is difficult to measure the full extent of both this involvement and the challenges that women face, as female participation is underrepresented in surveys and censuses. This leads to "gender blindness" among planners and policymakers, who often work under assumptions that do not reflect reality. In many developing countries, the men in power tend to focus on traditional male roles and male crops, largely ignoring the needs of women, resulting in a dearth of women in positions of power. Local organizations are often closed to females, either due to law or social customs, restricting access to knowledge, training, and resources.
It is imperative that policymakers at all levels of governance recognize the changing nature of agriculture, as well as the impacts that this shift is having on gender dynamics and equality. As women take on managerial roles in agricultural operations, or join men as migratory workers in order to find better wages and avoid landlessness (as in much of Latin America), policies must reflect this new reality.
The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization recommends policies that "eliminate discrimination under the law, promote equal access to resources and opportunities, ensure that agricultural policies and programmes are gender-aware, and make women's voices heard in decision-making at all levels." Challenges exist in implementing such policies and in changing social norms to value the work of women—but such changes are necessary to ensure a secure future for all.

The Titanic: End of a Dream
Penguin Books, Mar 30, 1992 - History - 358 pages
On that fatal April night in 1912, the world's largest moving object disappeared beneath the waters of the North Atlantic in less than three hours. Why was the ship sailing through waters well known to be a "mass of floating ice"? Why were there too few lifeboats, so that 1,522 people were left to perish at sea? Why were a third of the survivors members of the crew? Based on the sensational evidence of the U.S. Senate hearings, eyewitness accounts of survivors, and the results of the 1985 Woods Hole expedition that located and photographed the ship, this electrifying account vividly recreates the doomed vessel's last desperate hours afloat and fully addresses the questions that have continued to haunt the tragedy of the "Titanic."

Owners show their antique snowmobiles in Oneida
ONEIDA >> The Oneida Sons of the American Legion and the Tri-Valley Trailriders hosted their first Antique Snowmobile show at the Oneida American Legion post.
The event was paired with a chicken barbecue as well and local band Lincoln Hill played at the eve from 4 to 8 p.m.
"This is the first time we've worked together on something like this," said Sons Commander Dan McNally. "We're trying to get back into combined efforts like this. It's great when everyone can work together and be happy doing it."
"Something like this just gets everyone together," said Tri-Valley President Bill Vineall, "and if we raise a couple bucks here or there that's a good thing." The chicken barbecue was the major fundraiser at the event and proceed went toward both groups.
Behind the Legion, various collectors had their snowmobiles on display. Based on votes from everyone at the show, the best sled would be given a big trophy, with others getting smaller trophies.
Jeff Cobb of Oneida had his antique snowmobiles on display, showcasing a series of Hus-Ski's that he has collected over the years.
"I bought my first in 1962 and I've been collecting ever since," Cobb said. "I just collect them, I can't sell them."
Cobb explained that the brand, Hus-Ski was different than most at the time in the sixties, featuring a track or set of tracks on the front of the snowmobile and skis on the back, as opposed to brands like Arctic Cat that are the opposite. The first Hus-Skis were designed by lumberjacks, who would use their chainsaw motors to power the machine. Hus-Ski was eventually bought out by Bolen, who changed the original yellow color to red as a marketing strategy for their Diablo model.
"As a kid, I used to ride around on a Hus-Ski and I held onto it," said Cobb. "Some guys collect nostalgic cars; we're into old snowmobiles."
Cobb said that there are similar events similar shows almost every weekend. The farthest he has ever gone for a show was St. Jerome, which was a 14-hour car ride for his family into Quebec.
Next weekend is another big collectors' event outside of Camden where families are invited to bring their snowmobiles for a day of fun. Cobb said he is excited to bring the old sleds to an event like the Ski-Doo Picnic and can't wait to ride around with his family. The event is at Jim Suits County Barn on Hillsboro Road in Camden.

Brake Calipers & Brackets at 1A Auto
What are brake calipers and where are they located?
On vehicles with disc brakes, brake calipers are the movers (and hopefully not the shakers) that stop your car or truck when you step on the brake pedal. Most modern automobiles use disc brakes for the front and rear wheels, but some use drum brakes for the rear wheels. In disc brakes, when you press the brake pedal, the master cylinder pushes hydraulic fluid through the brake lines to the caliper. At the caliper, the fluid pushes brake caliper pistons that press the brake pads into the rotor. This slows down the rotor, which is attached to the wheel hub, stopping your vehicle.
There is one brake caliper for each wheel that uses disc brakes. It sits on the caliper bracket holding the brake pads.
How do I know if my brake calipers need to be replaced?
Brake calipers are made of sturdy material to accomplish the hard job of stopping your car or truck. They still can wear out, though. They might corrode, leak fluid, or get stuck. Any of these problems will result in poor braking, which is extremely dangerous.
If you are low on brake fluid frequently, then your brake system is probably leaking somewhere. If your brake pedal feels soft or pushes forward farther than normal, that may also be a sign of leaking brake fluid. If you see fluid around your caliper or the brake rotor, then the caliper may be the source of the leak.
Brake calipers can also stick, seize, or freeze. This can result from corrosion or lack of lubrication in the caliper slide pins. If only one caliper is stuck, then your car will tend to pull to one side during braking. A seized brake caliper also creates a lot of friction. If you suspect that you have a seized brake caliper, put your hand near—but not on—the brake rotor. If there is heat coming off the rotor, then you might have a stuck caliper.
Can I replace brake calipers myself?
Do-it-yourselfers with some prior brake experience can replace their own brake calipers, but the job may require an assistant. You will need to raise and secure the vehicle and have a catch pan ready for brake fluid. Then you can remove the wheel and tire and unbolt the caliper. Then you'll have to separate the caliper from the brake lines. This is where the fluid comes out. While the caliper is off, you might want to replace the brake pads. Brake pads are exposed to the same stresses as disc brake calipers, and can get especially worn out if you have a stuck caliper.
With all that done, you can connect the new caliper and bolt it on. Then have your assistant help you bleed the brakes (if you do not have an assistant, you can bleed the brakes by yourself using a vacuum bleeder). This calls for pumping the brakes until no more air comes out of the bleeder valve on the caliper. That helps ensure there's good pressure in the brake line.
Once the wheel and tire are securely on the vehicle, and the vehicle is back on the ground, you'll want to pump the brake pedal repeatedly until it feels firm. That helps to reset the pistons. Then test your brakes at low speed before road-testing the vehicle.
Need a brake caliper replacement?
Having properly functioning brakes on your vehicle is an absolute must for your own safety as well as for the safety of others. Since brake calipers are an important component of a vehicle's disc brake system, if they are worn out, then replacement brake calipers are needed ASAP to keep your vehicle braking like it should and avoid any potential accidents.

International Banking Supervision
International Bank Supervision (IBS) resides within Large Bank Supervision (LBS). IBS conducts the Federal Branches and Agencies supervision program and coordinates the OCC's international work in line with the agency's primary bank supervisory goals. IBS also supports LBS in its supervision of the international activities of its globally active banks, including through its London office, where a team of examiners is deployed to enhance OCC's oversight of the US banks' London operations.
IBS serves as the primary point of contact for international banking supervisors, and as a clearinghouse for various requests the agency receives, such as for supervisory information, bilateral meetings, and participation in international working groups. The IBS also maintains a high degree of collaboration with other OCC divisions, since legal, economics, policy, and examination staff from throughout the agency play active roles in the international activities of the OCC.
The IBS mission includes a strong focus on working with foreign supervisors through various means such as information exchange and technical assistance. The OCC's commitment to international cooperation is reflected in its work with such international groups as the Financial Stability Board, FATF, the Senior Supervisors Group, and the Basel Committee on Bank Supervision.
In addition, OCC's core supervisory work has an expanding international emphasis, requiring increasing interaction with foreign supervisors. This interaction includes regular sharing of information regarding the risks faced by OCC supervised institutions. OCC has established productive ongoing working relationships with a number of key foreign counterparts. A further important vehicle utilized by OCC to facilitate communication with foreign colleagues is the supervisory college, which affords its members the opportunity to confer regularly on supervisory matters of significance to the group as a whole. OCC, together with the Federal Reserve Board, co-chairs supervisory colleges for Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorganChase, and Morgan Stanley. OCC also participates in a number of other supervisory colleges as a host supervisor.

Birdcage walk
by Helen Dunmore
It is 1792 and Europe is seized by political turmoil and violence. Lizzie Fawkes has grown up in Radical circles where each step of the French Revolution is followed with eager idealism. Weaving a deeply personal and moving story with a historical moment of critical and complex importance, Birdcage Walk is an unsettling and brilliantly tense drama of public and private violence, resistance and terror from one of our greatest storytellers.

, a king determined to unite Norway under his rule, while Ragnvald's sister Svanhild, faced with an arranged marriage, must make a difficult decision about her future. This 1st book in a forthcoming trilogy presents an exciting Viking saga that should appeal to fans of Cecilia Holland's Corban Loosestrife novels or Bernard Cornwell's Saxon Stories.

The Alice Network: A Novel
Kate Quinn
By 1947, Charlotte "Charlie" St. Clair is desperate to find out what happened to her cousin Rose, who disappeared in Nazi-occupied France during the war.

Tim Forbes of The Whisky Exchange has just posted the second part of his Karuizawa trip report. It makes for very interesting reading and a much-hoped-for look behind the scenes of the whole Karuizawa stock transfer. Here's the most interesting bit:
"Doing a few quick sums in my head, it seemed that there were only around a couple of hundred casks of Karuizawa here [= Chichibu distillery]. Was this really all that was left? Yes and no. David [Croll, of No.1 Drinks] explained that a significant proportion of the few hundred casks that had been purchased from Mercian / Kirin were relatively young, having been filled in the 1990s. A good number of these casks (to be precise: 77, which is a very good number in anyone's book) from the 1999 and 2000 vintages have been vatted together to create an 11 year old Karuizawa single malt that will be the first large batch young Karuizawa to be released in Europe. This batch has yet to be bottled, but is provisionally entitled Asama, in reference to the beautiful snow-capped volcano that overlooks the distillery, and should be hitting the shelves in the next few months. All the remaining casks were here in the warehouse, and will be split between the company's distribution partners, namely TWE and our French friends [of La Maison du Whisky] for Europe and America, and Eric for the Far East, over the years to come."

Confession: Like so many warriors, I didn't do my homework when I first went to Arms from Protection. In a rush to spec DPS for our first 25-man Naxxramas attempt, I picked talents that seemed good but was lost on how to spend my last six points. With a shrug, I put two in each of three talents, didn't change my glyphs, and started beating on things with a De-Raged Waraxe. Then I cackled in glee. It was fun!
I was oblivious, delirious, and wasting talent points on Enrage with this 54/17/0 build.

Literally seconds after Apple opened pre-orders for the iPad mini I bought a 32GB model in white. That was on October 26. A month ago. Not only hasn't it arrived yet, it hasn't even shipped yet. U.S. iPad minis + LTE began arriving weeks ago but international iPad minis + LTE aren't being treated equally. That's nothing new. Apple famously (or infamously) delayed the release of the original iPad and iPad 2 almost a month outside the U.S., both online and at retail. With the iPad mini, the international Wi-Fi only versions were available for delivery and purchase day and date with U.S. versions. It's only the LTE (or cellular, if your carrier doesn't support LTE) versions that seem to be MIA.
The iPad Mini Wi-Fi + cellular was advertised here as available to ship in late November. That now leaves 4 days, and and means that, once it arrives (presumably 7-10 days later) time from pre-order to fulfillment will be over a month. Staging the rollout makes sense, and prioritizing the U.S. also makes sense. It simply shows that no company, not even Apple, can do everything at once, everywhere at once.
It took Apple an embarrassingly, outrageously, incomprehensibly long time to get Lightning cables and adapters into stores. During that painful period, early device adopters were left without connectivity, sometimes without even charging solutions for their brand new iPhone 5 handsets (especially those who lost or damaged the original, lone Lightning cable that came in the box). It was a rare and disappointing gaffe by a company that's usually the best in the business when it comes to getting product onto shelves.
The lack of international iPad mini + LTE shipments is nowhere near as bad as that. Apple still has a few more days left in November to at least ship the devices. And to get iTunes 11 done, and a few more weeks to get the new, wafer-thin iMacs out the door.
But that's a lot of product to leave to the last Holiday minute. And that's the problem with doing so much -- covering a lot of ground spreads anyone, even Apple, thin.
Anyone else outside the U.S. order an iPad mini + LTE? If so, what's your shipment status?

1. Romney emerges from coma, a changed man. Romney had a great debate. The candidate who was coming under increasing fire from his own party for running a lackluster, almost leisurely campaign, even as a damaging video put him seriously behind in key swing states, has been revitalized by his clear win. The campaign has shaken off the smell of pessimism, the fellow Republicans who were bashing Romney are cheering now. There's a bill coming due — see below — but as this week ends things are looking up in a major way. It's astonishing that Romney would have been given such an opportunity by Obama, who either got some very bad advice or was unable to follow good advice. Pollster John Zogby put Obama's performance in perspective: "If Obama had been running against himself, the race would have gotten tighter." Advantage: Romney.
2. A surprisingly good jobs report. Good news is never unwelcome, but good news on Friday morning was particularly well-timed for a president who had inexplicably damaged himself 36 hours earlier. The jobs news was outstanding on several fronts: Weak July and August hiring gains were given new luster by major adjustments as new data were reported — and most of all, the most-watched labor statistic, the jobless rate, plummeted in September from 8.1 to 7.8 percent. No single monthly report is going to change the campaign's trajectory, but it does put some wind beneath Obama's wings and remove a key Romney talking point that "we're in the XXth straight month of 8+ percent unemployment. Advantage: Obama.
3. Winners get paid. The Romney campaign joyously dialed for dollars Thursday, feeding hungrily from the win by winning over donors who had thought the cause was all but lost. The debate will be a fundraising bonanza for the campaign, which sorely needed the influx of cash after being outraised over the past two months. Advantage: Romney.
4. Romney's family takes a more public role. A couple of weeks ago, Ann Romney spoke out about Republicans taking shots at her husband's performance as a candidate. This week, she talked in an interview with CNN before the debate about giving her husband emotional support. And she's going to fill in for Good Morning America host Robin Roberts for a day Oct. 10. Also, Politico reports, son Tagg is taking a larger role in advocating his father's candidacy. The family involvement reinforces the view of Mitt Romney as a family guy that the campaign wants and needs. Advantage: Romney.
5. A swing-state voter ID law is stymied. On Tuesday, a Pennsylvania judge blocked the key part of a controversial Voter ID law in Pennsylvania — and as a result registered voters will not have to show IDs. It's the latest in a string of victories in the pushback against tough voter ID legislation. Laws in South Carolina, Wisconsin and Texas have been similarly blocked. In Florida and Ohio, attempts to limit early voting have been largely unsuccessful. Advantage: Voters.
1.A monumental flip-flop boxes Romney in. Here's the bill the challenger must pay: Defending himself from the only real attack Obama mounted Wednesday night — the voodoo economics of his specifics-free tax plan — the candidate made himself sound reasonable and middle-class friendly. At the same time he made the mathematics of his position all the more confounding. Plus, of course, what he said was wildly different from what he's said before. Romney said in a February 2012 primary debate, "We're going to cut taxes on everyone across the country by 20 percent, including the top 1 percent." Wednesday, he said, "I'm not going to reduce the share of taxes paid by high-income people." He added, "My plan is to bring down rates but also bring down deductions and exemptions and credits at the same time so the revenue stays in." Is it a tax-cut advocate? Is it a deficit hawk? No, it's a candidate speaking out of both sides of his mouth. Advantage: Obama.
2. An ill-timed mea culpa. On Thursday, Romney turned to Fox News to try to fix a big hole in the campaign boat — the 47 percent remark captured on the fund-raiser video. He told Sean Hannity that in a campaign, sometimes you say things you shouldn't, and "in this case I said something that's just completely wrong." Does that mean all the tycoons at the Boca Raton fund-raiser get their money back? And a bigger question: Since Obama utterly failed to bring up this gaffe, which probably has more to do with turning the campaign against Romney than anything, why self-inflict? This didn't seem like the best time to bring this up and remind people of why they were uncomfortable with you. Advantage: Obama.
3. The missed opportunities stack up. Obama failed in so many ways Wednesday, causing so much damage that needs to be repaired, that his campaign is going to look like a FEMA operation for the next two weeks. And it puts massive pressure on him to perform in round 2. In a real sense the stumble has turned him from a frontrunning incumbent with an air of inevitability into a wounded challenger. Plan A – non-engagement — was a disaster. Now, Plan B carries the risk that he will overreact and turn people off by being too aggressive. But the dirty work must be done; if he lets Romney get away cleanly with the huge pivot he took Wednesday, he could very easily lose all the ground he gained at and after the conventions. Advantage: Romney.
4. Romney gives PBS the bird. His base may have loved him taking a swing at PBS, anathema to all right-thinking right-wingers, but it was the most ridiculous moment of Romney's debate performance. "I love Big Bird," he said, but he'd cut the government subsidy to PBS rather than "borrow money from China to pay for it." Please. It's great to get a specific thing that would be cut — such declarations have been too rare — but something that amonts to .00012% of the budget seems like an odd place to start. Besides — you don't tread on Superman's cape, and you don't mess with Big Bird. The best two delayed- reaction ripostes from the Obama campaign Thursday: "Thank goodness somebody's finally getting tough with Big Bird" and "He wouldn't crack down on Wall Street, but he's cracking down on Sesame Street?" Advantage: Obama.
5. Spare me the conspiracy theories — it's a jobs report. Instead of being pleased that hiring appears to be on the upswing, some Republicans Friday darkly assumed that either "a lot of Democrats are lying about having jobs" or the Bureau of Labor Statistics cooked the books to make the President look good. Ex-GE CEO Jack Welch actually posited this: "Unvelievable jobs numbers .. .these Chicago guys will do anything .. can't debate so change numbers," he Tweeted. Jack, go sit in that empty chair with Clint in the "crochety old loon" corner. All this does is remove credibility from conservative arguments. Advantage: Obama.

This fills me with both great happiness and great sadness. A bittersweet moment it will be when BlitzGirl finally arrives in the present. We will have the joy of her presence but I will miss cheering her on and following her quest. I'm reminded of the feeling I had when London 2012 was nearing its end.

I like it when computers do repetitive, simple tasks which computers are good at, correctly (no time.png) every time, so the humans' time is free for having insane discussions. I like programming computers to do that, and I'd be annoyed if a PHB told me not to use such tools (especially when I'd only just written them) so that people have more mundane tasks to complete/compete over/talk about.
Maybe the bot could link to the other auto-collected images (e.g. aubronwood and that other one I don't remember the URL of yet) and the wiki, so people don't have to keep bumping them. Some day perhaps it'll automatically post updates of graphs, hats, etc. We won't even need to be here! But we will be, if it's fun. All the fun parts of life are optional. If there is a downturn in discussion, at least BlitzGirl will get here sooner. And what will we do then? I suggest we destroy the moon.
ETA: The only thing I don't like about the bot is that it doesn't give other people the chance to show their creativity in 'ONG' words. Maybe somebody here has been thinking 'Oooh, I can't wait till I get to be the one to post an ONG! WOLLONGONG is going to kill!' and is now put out by the robot overlong. So I would like to suggest that there be some kind of web interface where people can submit their ONGs (along with their usernames, if they want to get credit for them) and the bot could add these to its list.
If the bot was encouraging discussion that would be one thing. But since the bot got turned on, discussion has decreased, and for some of us at least, so has the fun. I'd hope that the ONG isn't the only creativity we have left. I wouldn't mind some sort of backup to the humans, but I don't like the bot the way it is.
I totally agree. I think the bot is a bad idea - especially as it was added without asking what other people thought.

Cooperative Extension at the University of New Hampshire recently announced a series of changes to the program that will not only save money but continue to provide services to New Hampshire residents in a more efficient and effective way.
"This unique approach will give all 10 counties a greater choice in how to participate and sets the stage for a stronger program overall," said John Pike, dean and director of UNH Cooperative Extension (UNHCE).
Participating counties will have a locally run 4-H program as well as access to all field specialists in Cooperative Extension instead of just those in their county. It is important to note that while our methods of delivering programs will change, our mission will not. Cooperative Extension remains the primary outreach arm of UNH and that remains unchanged."
The recent state cut and the resulting loss of 23 positions spurred the organization to implement a team of people from around the state to look at ways to reinvent, reconnect, and reinvigorate the work of Cooperative Extension. The new plan calls for alternate revenue generation, new funding partnerships with counties, specialization of staff, use of technology, and increased engagement with UNH faculty.
"Cooperative Extension is a vital link between the public and the knowledge and resources on the university campus," UNH Provost John Aber said. "Extension translates the great research that is done on campus into programs that directly benefit the public. This reinvention of Cooperative Extension allows for delivery of programs that is more efficient and more effective in creating value."
UNHCE reaches one in four New Hampshire residents with information or assistance, and recruits, trains, and supports more than 5,000 volunteers who work with staff to conduct educational programs throughout the state, including Marine Docents, 4-H leaders, and Lakes Lay Monitors. Nearly all of UNHCE's programs also directly benefit many other state residents. For example, the Lakes Lay Monitors program improves lake quality for all those using the lake as well as the tourism industry and local economies.
The budget cut and subsequent reduction in staff meant that Cooperative Extension needed to focus on areas where it could have the most impact. Moving forward, existing program areas will be replaced with teams focused on food and agriculture, natural resources, community and economic development, and youth and family. The teams will make final recommendations on what current programs will continue. While working primarily in the local counties, other significant changes include field specialists working regionally rather than limited to one county and counties having the option to transition support staff from county to UNH employees.
Pike also noted that if a county does not fund an office either on its own or jointly with another county, programs will be very limited for its residents. "We cannot continue to operate the way we did. Providing one educator in each of four traditional areas for each county is no longer possible. This reorganization will not only allow Cooperative Extension to survive, but thrive."

© 2012 The Joy of Cooking Trust and the MRB Revocable Trust
...parallels the history of the American kitchen and cuisine. Its eight editions take us from the Depression Era to the 21st century. Many JOYs have been passed down through families and many people are curious about the editions on their shelves. Visit our books page to read the history of each edition.
To learn about the people who have worked and continue to work to make JOY America's favorite kitchen reference, visit the Friends and Family pages. As you can imagine, a book this size with such a long and colorful history requires the time and effort of a small army. The JOY is constantly being updated to reflect current cooking knowledge, and we work diligently to correct any errors we, or our readers, find in the book. If you find an error or a subject that needs addressing, please let us know via our Contact Us page.
The Joy of Cooking has been a family affair since its first publication in 1931 when Irma wrote the book and her daughter Marion did the illustrations and helped with recipe testing. Today, the book is in the hands of the fourth generation-- John Becker, Irma Rombauers's great-grandson, Marion Becker's grandson, and Ethan's son.
The JOY Family has expanded to include Ethan's wife, Susan Cope Becker, and Maggie Green, both editors and writers on the 2006 anniversary edition. Most recently, Megan Scott has been welcomed into the family as John Becker's fiancée. The JOY is not a corporate cookbook. We remain a family business, and each member of the family actively works to improve the book.
Nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains and a stone's throw from the Little Tennessee River, the JOY family's test kitchen is a hive of activity as we research, test, and photograph new and classic JOY recipes daily in our continuing effort to keep the book ---and its wealth of recipes, tips, and reference information-- up to date, error-free, and as simple and useful as we can possibly make it. On an average day, we test recipes, work on revisions for future printings, maintain the website, write seasonal newspaper articles, develop new recipes, and answer your questions and concerns from our JOY Community forums, comment sections, Facebook and Twitter pages, as well as good, old-fashioned snail mail. We are fully dedicated to the quality of the book and to the happiness of its many fans, and we wholeheartedly welcome you to our online home.
Please: if you have any questions, suggestions, or feedback of any kind, post a comment on one of our blogs or in one of our forum sections and we will respond as soon as we can, which is usually within a day.

[This post by Mike Kimel was published at Angry Bear Blog.]
Steve Lopez at the LA Times reports on the bizarre world of the bizarre calculus of emergency room charges:
Debbie Cassettari had outpatient foot surgery to remove a bone spur. She arrived at the surgery center at 8 a.m., left at 12:30 p.m., and the bill came to $37,000, not counting doctor fees. In recovery now from sticker shock, she's waiting for her insurance company to do the tango with the clinic and figure out who owes what to whom. Gary Larson has a $5,000 deductible insurance plan, but has found that his medical bills are cheaper if he claims he's uninsured and pays cash. Using that strategy, an MRI scan of his shoulder cost him $350. His brother-in-law went to a nearby clinic for an MRI scan of his shoulder, was billed $13,000, and had to come up with $2,500. Kaiser member Robert Merrilees had a colonoscopy at an affiliated surgery center, which charged $7,500. His co-pay was $15, Kaiser picked up $470, the rest of the bill "just went away." Merrillees was left scratching his head over the crazy math in medical billing.
The article goes on:
Ella's father, John Moser, had a $5,000 deductible plan withCigna, and had taken Ella to the hospital to rule out appendicitis. Nothing serious was diagnosed, and Ella went home to a quick recovery. Her dad got a bill for nearly $5,000 from the hospital, as well as bills for $540 from a pathologist and $309 from the doctor who treated her. Like Moser, lots of patients are surprised to get separate bills like that, unaware that a hospital's doctors can be independent contractors. It's like going to a Laker game, paying $150 for a ticket, and later getting an additional $75 bill in the mail from Kobe Bryant.
I especially liked this:
"It's outrageous," Schwarzman said. "I don't know where they're coming up with these numbers. Are they picking them out of a hat?"
So who is this Schwarzman fellow? It turns out he is Dr. Phil Schwarzman, medical director of the emergency department at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center.
What is evident from the article, not to mention anyone who has dealt with health care services any time in the last few decades, is that medical bills make no sense at all. Having health insurance doesn't always help, either. Sometimes the bill for a procedure is lower for someone with health insurance, sometimes it is higher. So it is hard for a patient to make an informed decision. But you'd think things would be different for insurance companies. You'd think insurance companies would not willingly tolerate when they are the ones being handed a crazy bill. After all, they a) have information that patients don't, b) have market power that patients don't, and c) have a monetary incentive not to overpay. But it seems that even insurance companies don't operate the way a buyer in Econ 101 would operate. I'll give you two examples from my own life: 1. When I was in my early twenties I got a bill from a hospital. I couldn't remember having been to the hospital in the recent past. If memory serves, I had gotten a routine eye exam at the hospital a year or two earlier, but that was about it. As I went through the bill, my memory wasn't jogged at all. I was able to determine that the bill had been rather significant for a simple grad student, and fortunately my insurance had paid for the bulk of it. Sadly, there had been one procedure which hadn't been covered. But what the heck was an "epidural?" I finally learned, when I called the hospital to find out, that apparently I had been billed for delivering a child. And my insurance paid for the procedure... except the epidural, of course. Given that a guy doesn't have the, er, internal plumbing to deliver a child, presumably a good insurance policy would have sprung for the epidural too. Alternatively, they might have been tipped off by my gender that the whole thing never happened and disputed the bill. I don't know if they ever did. I just know that the hospital decided I probably didn't have an epidural and rescinded the charge for what they had wanted to bill me. 2. There was a point in my life I was getting headaches. Fortunately, it turns out I had a deficiency of either magnesium or placebos - a nurse practitioner I saw about the problem told me to take some magnesium pills, and since then I haven't had any problems with headaches. But what was interesting was that the insurance company happily paid for a bill from the doctor's office which indicated I had been seen by a doctor, not a nurse practitioner. The rate for seeing a doctor is much higher. I only had to pay the co-pay, so it made no difference to me, financially, but my wife is a stickler for this kind of thing and called the insurance company several times trying to inform they had been ripped off. She spoke to a number of people, but the charge was never disputed.
Anyway, that's all I got. Discuss.

Nicklas Backstrom, Washington Capitals – Concussion – Long Term Injure Reserve
The Caps placed Backstrom on LTIR just prior the deadline. It seemed to be to add cap space allowing GM George McPhee to do something significant. That didn't happen and now speculation is that Backstrom is nowhere close to healthy.
Joni Pitkanen, Carolina Hurricanes – Concussion – Indefinite
Roto World reports Pitkanen began skating on Monday. GM Jim Rutherford said "it will likely be two or three weeks before the defenseman is able to resume playing."
Keith Ballard, Vancouver Canucks – Concussion - Out for Season

Kris Russell, St. Louis Blues – Concussion – Day-to-Day

Jonathan Toews, Chicago Blackhawks – Upper Body Injury – Day-to-Day
Toews will miss his fifth straight game Wednesday night. The team is not commenting on the nature of the injury but there is speculation it may be a concussion.
Victor Hedman, Tampa Bay Lightning – Upper Body Injury – Day-to-Day
The nature of Hedmans injury is still undiagnosed, and GM Steve Yzerman said Tuesday "we don't believe it is concussion related" and "I'm hoping" he will play this season." Take from that what you will; your guess is as good as mine!

This is the first time i wrote something about my private life in the internet . it's hard for me to describe myself and tell others about the series of pain and humiliation that i have been through during my childhood and as a teenager in a muslim community.

Thanks for the friend request , I am really pleased to see more people coming to atheism from Islam. Without religion I think we will find just how much we all have in common and maybe stop back from the edge. I have been very surprised when debating with muslims the arguments for allah are identical to those used by christians yet because of religion they are two groups opposed to one another.
Hey Kiki,
Thanks for adding me as a friend here, we are alike in many ways, and I can really say that I understand what you're going through..
Good luck in your exams and I'm looking forward to read your posts.

Eide/Dalrymple Gallery to Feature Works by Eleanor Spiess-Ferris
"Shallow Waters: The Art of Eleanor Spiess-Ferris," an exhibition of large-scale paintings and drawings, will be on view at Augustana's Eide/Dalrymple Gallery March 11 through April 16. The gallery is open to the public and free of charge.
An opening reception with the artist will be held from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday, March 11. The artist will give a gallery talk at 6 p.m.
Chicago-based Spiess-Ferris is well known for populating the world of her large paintings with personal mythologies and surrealist forms. Her grand tableaus almost always include fantastical women encountering various species of birds – a reflection of the artist's personal myth of where birds go in the fall.
Rather than migrating south, "in my myth, many women come and pick them up, and put them [the birds] in things," Spiess-Ferris has said.
The results are surrealist images that also profoundly reflect upon environmental degradation, personal loss and the spiritual nature of being a part of the world.
Spiess-Ferris, however, also intends her symbolism to be open and changing.
"My feeling is you really don't need to know the symbol," she has said. "I like the idea of people making up their own story about what is going on because then they're pulling from themselves and they're joining the picture. I want people to think and to have fun."
Spiess-Ferris was born in New Mexico and studied at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has exhibited extensively through the United States and has held grants from the Illinois Arts Council and Arts Midwest. Based in Chicago, she teaches at the Evanston Art Center. During her visit to Augustana, she will also conduct a painting workshop and critiques with Augustana art students.
The Eide/Dalrymple Gallery is located on Commons Circle (30th Street and Grange Avenue), in the Center for Visual Arts. Hours are Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday noon to 5:00 p.m.

The Panasonic LUMIX GH5 was announced yesterday for release in early 2017.
- 4k 50p/60p
- 4:2:2 10-bit in-camera
- Looks like no 6K other than in "6K PHOTO" mode
- New body design which will almost certainly mean it won't fit GH4 housings
- No mention of the new 5-axis Dual I.S. 2 IBIS that's in the G80/G81/G85. Would seem strange not to include it in the flagship camera.
I may get it, chiefly for the 60p @ 4k. I really hope the auto-focus and underwater colour rendition are improved, as these are my 2 biggest issues with the GH4 for underwater use.

Sharks, Kings clash in Game 5 of deadlocked series
The San Jose Sharks will aim for a third straight victory, as they visit the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday for Game 5 of the deadlocked Western Conference semifinals.
San Jose lost the first two games of this best-of-seven series in Los Angeles, but recorded a pair of 2-1 wins on home ice to even the set at 2-2.
The sixth-seeded Sharks won Game 3 in overtime before taking Tuesday's encounter at HP Pavilion in regulation. Antti Niemi made 22 saves to help San Jose tie the series and improve its home record in this postseason to 4-0.
San Jose is 2-2 as the road team this spring after going 8-14-2 as the visiting club in 2013. The Sharks won both games in Vancouver en route to their sweep of the Canucks in the opening round.
The Sharks received goals from Brent Burns and Logan Couture on Tuesday. Couture's tally was his fifth of the playoffs and all of his goals have come on the power play.
"I thought we really established our forecheck well and that helped us get our first goal," said San Jose head coach Todd McLellan. "That's the type of game we have to play because we have big bodies and some speed that we need to use to our advantage."
Mike Richards had the only goal of the game for the Kings, who received 21 saves from Jonathan Quick in the setback.
"I think we battled back and made it close, but you don't get much for making it close," said Los Angeles head coach Darryl Sutter. "I think our role players kept us in the game and they have in the past three games."
The Kings were 1-for-3 on the power play, while San Jose went 1-for-4.
Los Angeles fell to 1-4 as the away team in the playoffs after posting a 8-12-4 road record during the regular season.
However, the Kings were 19-4-1 as the home team in 2013 and are a perfect 5-0 at the Staples Center in the postseason. In fact, L.A. hasn't lost a home game since dropping a 1-0 decision to Vancouver on March 23.
The Sharks will host Game 6 of this series on Sunday.
This marks just the second postseason meeting between these two Pacific Division rivals. The Sharks got the best of the Kings in six games during the 2011 conference quarterfinals.
