Hillary Clinton's Treatment of Police Revealed! Police Radio, The Voice of American Law Enforcement tears the lid off of how Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton treats the Secret Service and Law Enforcement Officers that have protected her over the years. In this special broadcast, Host Randy Sutton speaks in depth with Ron Kessler, the renowned Investigative Journalist and New York Times Best Selling Author of "The First Family Detail, Secret Service Agents reveal the Hidden Lives of the Presidents". You will want to hear this before you decide how to vote.
Ronald Kessler is the New York Times bestselling author of 20 non-fiction books. Kessler began his career as a journalist in 1964 on the Worcester Telegram, followed by three years as an investigative reporter and editorial writer with the Boston Herald. In 1968, he joined the Wall Street Journal as an investigative reporter in the New York bureau. He became an investigative reporter with the Washington Post in 1970 and continued in that position until 1985.
Kessler has won 18 journalism awards, including two George Polk awards—one for national reporting and one for community service. Kessler has also won the Robert Novak Journalist of the Year Award, the American Political Science Association's Public Affairs Reporting Award, the Associated Press' Sevellon Brown Memorial Award, and Washingtonian magazine's Washingtonian of the Year award. Franklin Pierce University awarded him the Marlin Fitzwater Medallion for excellence as a prolific author, journalist, and communicator. He is listed in Who's Who in America.
In a similar story, the Daily Mail featured an article by Ron Kessler that you may also find of interest. EXCLUSIVE: Hillary 'triggered' suicide of President Bill Clinton's counsel Vince Foster when she attacked and humiliated him in front of White House staff one week before his death, FBI agents claim
THE FIRST FAMILY DETAIL reveals:
Vice President Joe Biden regularly orders the Secret Service to keep his military aide with the nuclear football a mile behind his motorcade, potentially leaving the country unable to retaliate in the event of a nuclear attack.
Secret Service agents discovered that former president Bill Clinton has a blond mistress who lives near the Clintons' home in Chappaqua, New York. Within minutes of Hillary Clinton's leaving, the woman—codenamed Energizer by agents—shows up to be with Bill and stays every day while the likely future presidential candidate is away.
The Secret Service covered up the fact that President Ronald Reagan's White House staff overruled the Secret Service to let unscreened spectators get close to Reagan as he left the Washington Hilton, allowing John W. Hinckley Jr. to shoot the president.
President Obama's decision to appoint veteran agent Joseph P. Clancy as the new Secret Service director guarantees that the agency's security lapses will continue.
Secret Service agents have been dismayed to overhear Michelle Obama push her husband to be more aggressive in attacking Republicans and to side with blacks in racial controversies.
Secret Service Director Mark Sullivan diverted agents from protecting President Obama and his family at the White House and ordered them instead to protect his assistant at her home and illegally retrieve confidential law enforcement records as a favor to her.
Because Hillary Clinton is so nasty to agents, being assigned to her protective detail is considered a form of punishment and the worst assignment in the Secret Service.
Secret Service agents were ordered to ignore security rules and allow the SUV carrying actor Bradley Cooper to drive unscreened into a secure restricted area when President Obama was about to deliver his speech at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Vice President Joe Biden has racked up costs to taxpayers of a million dollars to fly to and from his home in Delaware on Air Force Two. His office tried to cover up the costs of the personal tri…

It is not every day that you hear soothing music like that of a piper playing when you sip on a glass of whisky. But if it happens to be a good scotch that is a rare blend of choicest of malts across Scotland, is mature, refined, and well cultivated – you sure are in for music in good measure. Yes, with Seagram's 100 pipers – the wonderfully aged blended Scotch whisky, the effect is so soothing that you can hear as many as 100 pipers playing in your glen.
Seagram's 100 Pipers: The Coming Alive of an Incredible Scottish Legend
A Scottish legend goes that the proof of a good scotch lies in the music it evokes to your senses. When you sip on a good scotch, you can hear a piper play. If the scotch is mellow, you might hear two. The number may be three if the scotch is very smooth, and may increase to four or five in case the scotch is light. Scotland's legendary hero Bonnie Charles the Prince is believed to have heard as high as nine pipers playing. One day a master blender was blending in the glen and was determined to boost the number up to ten. He tried every trick he knew and tested, tasted, and repeated the process multiple times over. He finally heard the Pipers – not ten, not twenty, but a hundred of them. Yes, he heard a 100 pipers playing in his glen and that's exactly what we call perfection.
Another legend has it that in year 1745, a group of 100 pipers preceded Bonnie Charles the Prince and his army into battle. Their melodious music served to fill the army men's hearts with courage and those of the enemy with terror. This ballad of 100 pipers is the inspiration behind this legendary scotch whisky, bringing alive the epic story of victory by an astounding platoon of pipers.
More than 20 years and 530 combinations to get the best of Scotland in one bottle
They say it takes generations to create a revolution. In this case, it took one whole generation spanning 20 long and eventful years to source the best whiskies from all of Scotland and combine them for a never-created-before product. Shortly after the big Scotland war of 1928, a team from Seagram went to Scotland with a very American idea. They wanted to create a rare scotch that would be everything that embodies all of the renowned whiskies of the world – the Balmenmachs, the Strathislas, the Macallans and many more. While most distilleries stop at and are happy having one or two of these whiskies in their scotch, we at Seagram's were determined to stop at nothing but an incredible scotch that would combine all these tastes. We spent years searching the Highlands and Lowlands, built a library of 50 whiskies and then tried them in 517 different blends and 530 combinations. When we finally came across a blend that combined 30 of these world's 50 great whiskies, we knew we had found our product and it was named 100 pipers.
100 pipers is the result of a superior blend of handpicked malt and grain whiskies from across Scotland. At its heart lies a sweet vanilla aroma of the Braeval malt whisky, sourced from the remote Livet Valley in the Speyside region of Scotland.

Africa and Human Rights
HRHW is proud to present a special Roundtable on human rights issues in Africa with contributions from Ines Mzali and Walter Lotze. The Fall Roundtable responds to Ben Rawlence's article at Project Syndicate on "Kenya's Somali Contradiction."
On the Roundtable
The Roundtable is part of an ongoing effort to utilize our online format to its fullest extent and provide an arena for intellectual dialogue on matters of great international importance. Toward this end, every quarter we assemble an interdisciplinary panel of academics, policy-makers and practitioners with interest and expertise in foreign affairs from varied disciplines. This approach is unique in its attempt to present a truly diverse field of commentators who see world affairs through their particular lenses.
Panelists are commissioned for one to up to three Roundtables. HRHW editors select a different focal article from a widely-read publication (e.g., Foreign Affairs, Harper's or the New York Times Magazine) that addresses an issue or event with clear human rights implications. The panelists' responsibility is to reflect on the article chosen by and compose a short response paper.

In the Kitchen With: Stacy Newgent's French Toast and Bacon
This week's recipe for French Toast and Sweet and Spicy Bacon by photographer Stacy Newgent reminded me how much I love French toast (and bacon!). I've mentioned before my culinary rituals when I visit the United States, and together with hamburger sampling, great breakfasts rank at the top of my list. My favorite French toast of all time was Finkelstein's French Toast from the no-longer Late for the Train in Menlo Park, California, made with thick slices of challah. I tried making it at home, starting with homemade challah, but my father always sneaked into the kitchen and ate all the loaves before they could go stale (yes, two giant loaves in less than two days). I'm happy to have Stacy's recipe to try again this weekend with a different bread! — Kristina
About Stacy: Stacy Newgent is a freelance photographer (and aspiring home cook) living in Indianapolis, Indiana. She shoots a variety of subjects but is happiest photographing food and restaurants for cookbooks or editorial assignments. Her recent work includes the James Beard Award-winning Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home, the upcoming Bakeless Sweets by Faith Durand and the most recent Garden and Gun "Made in the South" awards issue. Stacy also writes the Swell Photo Blog. Our readers loved her recipes for really easy apple dumplings and fantastic raspberry and sweet corn ice cream (from Jeni's).
See Stacy's full recipes after the jump . . .
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 6 slices of 2-day-old Italian bread cut about 1 1/2 inches thick
- butter for pan
1. Whisk the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla and salt in a baking dish. Place the bread in a single layer in the egg mixture. Spoon the egg mixture over the bread and let stand until soaked through.
2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet (I used a cast-iron skillet) over medium heat. Add 3 bread slices to each skillet. Cook until a deep golden color on the bottom, about 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Sprinkle the tops of the bread slices with sugar, then turn the slices over and cook until a deep golden color on the bottom, about 3 to 5 minutes.
4. Transfer the French toast to plates and serve with lots of powdered sugar and blueberries.
- 1 pint berries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
Put everything into a saucepan and cook over medium-low heat — stirring occasionally and mashing the berries a bit until reduced — for about 20 minutes. You can also add a bit of lemon juice or orange zest, or you can add fresh herbs. It seems like everything is delicious with blueberries!
Spicy and Sweet Bacon
- 1 lb thick-cut bacon (about 12 slices)
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the brown sugar and pepper together in a small bowl and set aside.
3. Line the bacon on a cookie sheet (one with edges, so the grease doesn't run over) or a broiler pan. I like to put foil down first just to help with the clean-up.
4. Bake the bacon at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the bacon over. Sprinkle the bacon with the sugar mixture.
5. Put the bacon back into the oven until crispy — about 10 to 20 minutes depending on the thickness.
My normal breakfast is coffee — lots and lots of coffee. But once in a while, I'll start craving French toast and bacon. I really like this French toast recipe because the bread doesn't get too soggy (since it's pretty stale), and it turns out really sweet and buttery — and paired with spicy bacon . . . [it's] really a delicious breakfast or brunch or dinner. Plus it's really easy, and if you don't have berries, you can always go more traditional and use maple syrup.


text: Feb. 23, 2010 - We call on Congress to continue its bipartisan support of the federal student aid programs – which combine grant, work-study, and loan programs to enable low-income students to succeed. Since the onset of the economic downturn two years ago, college enrollment has surged, and federal student aid applications have increased by almost 20 percent. We believe these appropriated student aid programs are critical to the access, persistence and completion of college degrees.

I wonder if it counts as insomnia if I don't even try to go to sleep in the first place. A week without school or any other commitments earlier than 14:00 have given me a feeling of being suspended in limbo. There is no sense of time anymore. Not even the sun can guide me through the day, blocked out of my apartment for the few hours it shines by thick blinds.
Each night there's a point where I know logically I should go to sleep. Instead I stand in my middle of the room and wonder what I can do. Make a snack, perhaps, or watch a movie? I have a book to read but that is far to serene for my otherwise wired self.
Last night at 3:00 I found myself on my couch wrapped in blankets, watching an old movie I've seen half a dozen times before. I was tired, but still didn't feel like sleeping. After some time I was lying down, eyes closed, back to the screen, just listening to the dialogue. Not an unusual place to find me, I must admit. Somehow my couch often feels more inviting than the flat impersonal mattress of my bed.
I was aware of a sex scene happening behind me, a seduction twenty-five minutes in the making, and at the same time developed an intense craving for cheese fries. It was what the two lovers had shared moments earlier at the fast food drive-through. Some kind of Freudian desire on my part? One can only wonder.
I figured it had been long enough since I brushed my teeth that a snack wouldn't taste like peppermint or Listerine. Toast and cream cheese. Right food groups, wrong foods. But it did the trick.
Now almost 4:00, back on the couch with toast and tea, wide awake again, back to square one. Another hour needed settle down once again and have any hope of going to sleep.
Today at least it's only 2:00, but that craving for cheese fries is coming around again, and today all the equipment I need is waiting for me in the fridge. Not exactly an appropriate midnight snack, but it's just Friday night. The regular dirge of academia is still more two days away, and until then its all the late-night melted cheddar I want.
Come late Sunday night it might be insomnia. Yesterday, and tonight, it's just a lazy ass good time.

Put An End Towards The Home Invasion Of Pests
Pests are probably the stuff that irritate your nerves if you own a residence. There are an endless selection of potential pests that could invade your own home. Pests might be rodents, ants, roaches, or flies. Some pests can do significant damage to your home, including termites. Here are several actions you can take to reduce these pests.
Once thing which will eradicate the pests is to vacuum thoroughly. You'll rid your family room and kitchen of insects by sweeping them up. When you find yourself finished, throw the bag in the garbage.
One way to kill hornets or bees would be to spray the insect with hairspray. The hairspray is actually a double threat, since it kills the bugs while repelling others featuring its scent.
You should usually have an inspector take a look at a home prior to deciding to purchase it. It may be an easy task to spot some infestations, but those under your home on inside of the walls won't be visible until two or three days have passed.
If you have any plumbing leaks, immediately fix them. Many pests like areas which may have water. They are able to sense drips from miles away. Don't let your neglect end up being the reason you may have pests. Prevent rodents and bugs from using up residence through taking a little time to complete some preventative maintenance.
One pest that is acknowledged for being difficult to eliminate is fleas. Thankfully, you can use several techniques for eliminating fleas and their eggs. Vacuum your property daily, and then followup by spraying flea spray. Always toss from the vacuum bag when you are finished cleaning your living quarters.
Plant new trees farther away from your home to cut down on rats and mice in your own home. That's as the rodents can simply climb are available to your home using your roof or attic. At the very least, be sure they're 15 feet from your house.
Mint might help within your battle against mice. Plant mint plants throughout the foundation of your property. This makes the cornerstone undesirable for mice to live in. Once you sprinkle mint leaves in different areas of your house, it would keep mice away. Mice are repelled by mint, but make certain you use fresh leaves.
Have you got a problem with rodents in your own home? Walk throughout the perimeter of your house and try to locate small cracks that may be allowing pests inside. If you realise any cracks fill them track of steel wool pads or poison.
Use a strong-smelling repellent like mustard oil to keep them at bay.
If you're a family pet owner, don't use poison to kill rodents. Your puppy could get sick from catching a poisoned rodent. You should also avoid these poisons in case you have young children. They could put the pellets with their mouth.
Whatever the pest that is invading your property, you should address the situation immediately. Using the advice here you'll have a lot better control of any pest problems. Recall the tricks you've learned, and you are going to be pest-free.http://www.youtube.com/embed/-FjgDea3qhI

The news is out. The winners of the 2011 Winetasting Challenge have been announced.
The Challenge was created in 2004 as part of The Renaissance Project, brainchild of Felice Sabatino of Via Allegro Ristorante, to celebrate and encourage excellence in our wine service industry. It was a huge success and, as the competition grew, Brock University's Cool Climate Oenology and Viticulture Institute was appointed as the organizing, presenting and auditing body in 2005. It is now the most unique and largest wine tasting competition in the world, with the largest prize purse of its kind in the world – upwards of $100,000 including cash, trips, Spiegelau stemware and scholarships.
In the Challenge's early days, Toronto Life was a media sponsor, an association that has since been dissolved but which made me proud when I was still involved with the magazine. I particularly liked the fact that the competition was open to anyone, professional and amateur, and that no entry fee was required. That is still the case. The event is operated by volunteers and all awards and competition expenses (venue, food, wines, etc.) are provided courtesy of the sponsors. In a healthy spirit of competition, neither The Renaissance Project nor CCOVI keeps or publishes any individual scores. Only the names of the winners and runner-ups for each of the categories are announced.
It's a very tough competition – as it should be with so much at stake. All the wines and spirits are presented 'double blind' (purchased and at the competition, pre-poured out of sight by "bonded" representatives from CCOVI at Brock University) the "challenge" is to correctly identify the grape varietal, country, region of origin and vintage from a diverse range of world wines. The professionals try to identify seven wines while the amateurs attempt to identify three wines. There are two supplementary rounds where (1) three VQA wines are presented double blind and (2) three spirits are presented double blind.
You can find out much more and see a list of the noble sponsors who make all this possible at the Challenge's website, http://winetastingchallenge.com/.
And so to business:
1st Prize, professional: Peter Boyd, Sommelier at Scaramouche and an Instructor with the International Sommelier Guild, songwriter and preternaturally gifted blues musician.
2nd Prize, professional: Jonathan Salem-Wiseman, Professor at the Humber School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, winner of 1st Prize, amateur in 2010.
3rd Prize, professional: Eugene Mlynczyk, Key Account Manager, Sales at Vincor Canada.
1st Prize, amateur: Anthea deSouza
2nd Prize, amateur: Jordan Mills
3rd Prize, amateur: Monika Janek
Spirit Champion: Mark Coster, familiar to all as a contributing writer at Good Food Revolution.
CCOVI VQA Challenge Champion: Peter Bodnar Rod, Director of sales and marketing at 13th Street Winery and the Director Online education, Wine Industry Liaison at the International Sommelier Guild. He was also the first Grand Award winner of the Challenge, back in 2004.
Huge congratulations to them all!

Patch Testing
Patch testing is a specialist procedure carried out by a consultant dermatologist who has a special interest in occupational/contact dermatitis.
It can help your referring doctor/specialist determine if your skin condition is caused by an allergy to substances (these substances are called allergens) which come into contact with your skin, such as products at home, at work or in leisure activities.

IT transformation is a big deal: it can make or break a company's ability to adapt and therefore to keep the lead or to stay in the race. These high stakes, combined with the ongoing business as usual turmoil make it feel like hitting a moving target:
- Not hitting it could jeopardize your future
- It's very difficult as target moves
- It requires the snipper's experience to have a chance of success
- It requires to anticipate all kind of various factors that could lead to mission to failure: an experienced snipper knows majority of those which requires his attention
Here are 5 "snipper" hints which tend to lead IT transformation programs to success...
Always have in mind that "IT transformation" is only a part of a "Tranformation" strategy
The main characteristic of a transformation is that it is business driven. It's a mandatory, entreprise-wide change to either respond to changing market conditions, tap into new market segments, or in worst cases avoid the decline of the company.
IT transformation is only a part of a larger plan, or at least shall be. It can bring value to the company only if it is integrated in a larger transformational move. If it's not, it's only a supplementary layer patched onto the existing IS, which entails additional costs (maintenance, evolution, IS complexity) without gain.
In order to favor value brought in by IT transformation project, project sponsor has to:
- Be strongly aware of business drivers, which set the goal and will be the focal point followed in Steering Committees
- Be able to summon SME (Subject Matter Experts) on entreprise-wide processes
- Foster processes improvement aligned with target solution
- Ensure future IS users cooperation and buy-in
Contractor's point of view
Project sponsor is a key stakeholder on projects, and especially on IT transformation projects. He's accountable for alignment between IT transformation and business objectives. Contractor's project direction team has to know project sponsor well, foster a good relationship with her/him and raise alerts to top management if Project Sponsor do not perform as expected.
Overarching company's transformation strategy shall be shared with contractor's project direction team in order to enhance value propositions from contractor.
Know your Business Case by heart
IT transformation projects are often large and complex. Large because of the number of applications involved in entreprise processes, of the large number of resources involved, and complex because of intrinsic complexity of existing entreprise processes, inertia and organization's resistance to change as well as changing landscape due to ongoing operations (business as usual).
In this fast paced moving world, business case shall always serve as a reference to stakeholders to take decisions. This business case shall come from project sponsor and be mastered by project management team.
Current operation stakeholders will always urge project management team to embed changes that come from ongoing business, and the related value has to be carefully questionned in order to avoid scope creep.
Contractor's point of view
Client's project management team responsibility is to mitigate and deal with stakeholders' expectations by studying and questionning benefits vs costs. Contractor's responsibility is to alert whenever scope change requests could lead to scope creep by blasting out Project Management Baseline too widely or too often.
A shared vision of business drivers may help contractor to give better advices related to business case (Contractor has a vision on industry standards).
Set-up a champions team to lead the project
Given the 2 previous hints, managing an IT transformation project is not an easy journey. Each stakeholder has a role to play in order to ensure project success.
However, too often have I seen project sponsors busy with day-to-day operation and current financial results lacking of vision on project's benefits, project management team not aware of company's strategic drivers of the transformation. This situtation has several consequences:
- Bad decisions, which themselves lead to additional costs (rework) or decrease in expected value (inadequation of the solution)
- Lag in decision, which lead to delay and therefore to additional costs
Contractor's point of view
Champions team is a team. Clients resources are member of the team and the outcome depends on them too.
Contractor has to alert whenever client's side of the team has not the appropriate level of expertise / involvment. Some useful indicators are
- Number of meeting's absence / cancellation
- Lead time for getting answers
- % of inaccurate answers
Manage the inevitable changes effectively
As mentioned above, changes are inevitable. During a 1 year-or-more project, companies need to do their "company jobs", eg. struggle with competition, be innovative, buy other companies, review internal processes to face organic growth...
But changes are to be managed very very very well in order to avoid leading the entire project to failure. Here are some tips:
- Have a centralized, shared repository of all changes candidates
- Share the lifecycle of changes and ensure that any stakeholder master which states they are accountable for
- Propose a review process which forces business case establishment for each of the given change candidates. Low value changes will be discarded faster
- Set-up formal change control boards to prioritize and sign-off changes to add these to Project Management Baseline
- Monitor the average number of change candidates registered per month. It provides a useful insight on target solution's stability
- Monitor the average number of accepted Change Requests vs average number of submitted Change candidates to gain insights on Project Management Team to manage operations' expectations
Contractor's point of view
In a fixed price contract, managing changes is a matter of economic survival. Don't play with it, and set-up a change management governance and toolkit right from the start. Spread the word to teams to carefully register any new request during design but to never commit during sessions on embedding a change, even if it seems obvious and cheap.
Lessons learnt: More than 2M€ changes which could not be charged, all of this being a sum of small changes between 5 and 20 m*d in implementation accepted on-the-fly by inexperienced design team: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"... It' worth paying attention to.
Rely on industry standards
Last but not least, value is leveraged by not-reinventing-the-wheel. Every industry builds standards which represent a set state-of-the-art best practices skimmed through millions of work hours across various contexts. No one shall be arrogant enough to claim "These standards cannot be applied in my business".
Standards can be tuned, right. Instanciated, right. But somehow, the company which accepts to review its intrinsic processes to go the-most-standard-as-possible leverages a powerful bunch of aggregated experience and can be pretty sure to generate value from it.
Moreover, one of the great benefits of standards is that they come along with
- A common language to name items (processes, steps, concepts...) which facilitates further communication between stakeholders
- Standard implementation from Software Vendors
Contractor's point of view
If involved in upstream steps of a transformation project, always be sure to have a Subject Matter Expert who knows industry standards by heart. If you don't, hire one.
If you're not involved un updtream steps of a transformation project, get involved. The earlier you're involved, the more value you can leverage with standards:
- Propose software vendors who implement standards Out of the box, but flexible enough to allow adaptation
- Urge project sponsor in very early stage to align operations with industry standards

Wedding Photojournalism
I was voted as one of the best wedding photographers in London by the Evening Standard. I have shot over 1500 weddings in my career, so a I have a huge amount of experience. I am now based in the South of France.
My style is very much a mixture of documentary photography and some beautifully arranged groups & portraits. The aim is to give you both but to make sure that the groups and portraits don't take ages, so you can make the most of your day. I choose gentle direction as opposed to anything cheesy.
My Book "A Guide to Wedding Photojournalism" is an Amazon Best-Seller. Read my 5 star Google Review to get an insight of what my previous clients thought.

My research is based at the University of Colorado's Adult and Child Consortium for Health Outcomes (ACCORDS), a multidisciplinary research center that focuses on the entire life spectrum as well as on "delivery science," encompassing comparative effectiveness, patient-centered outcomes and implementation and dissemination research.
My work has focused on using electronic health data methods to define and model systems- and patient-level factors associated with process and outcome measures of health care quality. This work has assessed variation in quality of care for various conditions, and has demonstrated the importance of rigorous methods in selecting and implementing quality metrics. These publications have highlighted the importance of the following in quality measurement:
- selecting process measures only when they have demonstrated association with outcomes of value;
- using risk-adjustment that extends beyond adjustment for the severity of the acute condition to encompass chronic medical complexity and social determinants of health; and
- incorporating adjustment for structural measures of quality, including crowding and occupancy measures.
These publications document the importance of addressing these issues from a policy standpoint, particularly in light of public reporting and pay for performance tied to such measures.

My new favorite wood
I'm almost finished designing my next project, so I went to the hardwood lumber dealer today to pick up some Honduran mahogany. While I was there, I found some cool figured walnut - I didn't even know there was such a thing. So I brought it home, and cut off a foot or so to run over the jointer, and plane down to get a look at the figuring. What I uncovered was quite remarkable, almost like figured maple stained to look like walnut. It was a bit difficult getting a picture with the right lighting to give a good representation, but I think this at least gives a good idea. I'm thinking of bookmatching this for the door panels for my upcoming dining room piece (thanks to Kip from the woodwhisperer chat room for that gem). Anyway, just thought I'd share my find for the day - I can't wait to start resawing!

Introduction, Paintings 1-20
• In his Introduction to the book, Thomas Hoving noted that it took him a long time to get to know Andrew Wyeth as a person, and it took even longer to get to know him as an artist.
• What united Wyeth the man and Wyeth the artist was an independent nature from an early age.
• Wyeth's paintings are free and dreamlike. They draw romantic associations, even though Wyeth claimed he was not a romantic.
• Subject matter was most important to Wyeth who thought that it was unnecessary to add life to a scene because scenes were discovered by accident.
• In these accidents, Wyeth hoped over the years that something random or unlikely would add incongruity to a scene.
• In many ways, Wyeth's painting are like dreams where there are deep emotional and personal associations, although they are hidden from obvious detection in what is depicted...

Nearly two out of three real estate investors in California who work with a Realtor plan to buy and hold homes for more than a year instead of flipping them for quick profits, a recent survey from the California Association of Realtors shows.
That stat suggests a general shift in industry strategy. When foreclosures flooded the market and home prices plummeted, investors picked up heavily discounted properties, renovated them and executed quick sales.
Now? Not so much.
Related: Where's the housing market headed?
Distressed sales have dried up and housing prices have soared, rendering flipping less financially viable.
Chief Denney, developer and owner of Chief Property Ventures in Rancho Santa Fe, does both flipping, and buying and holding. But the company has been doing more of the latter since three months ago, when it saw fewer flipping opportunities.
"It's been really difficult finding deals with the spread needed in order for us to succeed at doing renovations," said Denney, whose company is featured on A&E's new show "Flipping San Diego." "...The real estate market, what I like about it is it's never the same. You figure out how to stay profitable and you continue to play the game."
What's changed?
Foreclosures and mortgage defaults have fallen to their lowest levels since 2006, and the county's home prices have risen to a 5½-year high. Also, short sales -- deals that let borrowers sell their homes for less than what they owe -- have become easier to accomplish, Denney said. When you put all those factors together, fewer foreclosures come onto the market.
And that means fewer deals for real estate investors. But that's not to say they've all left the market.
Nearly 30 percent of San Diego County home sales in June were completed by absentee buyers, likely investors or second-home buyers, show figures from real estate tracker DataQuick. The share of absentee buyers peaked at 31.5 percent in March.
"It's probably the most competitive that I've ever seen it in San Diego," Denney said. "It's still a lucrative business, but you have to have an amazing team to put out an incredible project. And you've got to know what you're doing. The days of not knowing much and making a lot of money are kind of over."
It seems interest in real estate has remained high, but strategies appear to be shifting.
Sixty-four percent of investors who teamed up with a Realtor said they plan to keep the property for more than a year, says the Realtors' survey, which was conducted in April and recently released.
The rest? They plan to flip within 12 months.
What hasn't changed: Flipping can be high-risk work that comes with unforeseen challenges, Denney said. In one episode of "Flipping San Diego," which debuted earlier this month, his company had to tear down half of a home's front because of structural issues that revealed themselves only after crews tore open walls.
The show chronicles renovation projects completed by Denney's company from start to finish. Episodes feature Denney, and partners Chris Bedgood and Elisa Stabile. They air every Saturday at noon local time. Here's a glimpse of the show:

As stated in 4.3, in order to verify the ultimate and serviceability limit states, each design effect has to be checked and for each effect the largest value caused by the relevant combination of actions must be used.
However, to ensure attention is primarily focussed on the EC5 design rules for the timber or wood product being used, only the design load case producing the largest design effect has generally been given or evaluated in the following examples.
Example 10.13.1 A timber-to-timber tension splice connection functioning in service class 2 conditions is required to connect two 50 mm by 150 mm timber members as shown in Figure E10.13.1(a). Two 36 mm by 150mm timber side members will be used, connected by 3.35 mm diameter smooth round nails 65 mm long without pre-drilling and driven from both sides to overlap in the central member. The nails have a tensile strength of 600 N/mm2. The joint is subjected to a characteristic permanent action of 2.5 kN and a characteristic medium-term variable action of 3.5 kN and all timber is strength class C22 to BS EN 338:2003.
Determine the number of nails and the nailing pattern required to comply with the rules in EC5.
36 mm
36 mm
150 mm t
150 mm
Nailing zone
1. Geometric properties
Thickness of the side members, ti t\ = 36 mm
Thickness of the inner members, t2 t2 = 50 mm
Width of the members, h h = 150 mm Cross-sectional area of each of the side As = h ■ t\ members, As
Cross-sectional area of the inner Ain = h ■ t2 member, A;n
Nail head diameter, dh dh = 2.25 d
Nail pointside penetration, tpomt
Maximum nail pointside penetration, t2 - tpomt > 4d (Figure 10.6c (EC5, 18.104.22.168.(7)))
Minimum penetration of the nail in the inner timber member, tpoint.pen
Both maximum and minimum nail penetration criteria met
2. Timber and nail properties
Table 1.3, strength class C22 (BS EN 338:2003(E), Tablel)
Characteristic tension strength /t.0.k = 13 N/mm2 parallel to the grain, /t 0 k
Characteristic density of the timber, pk
Tensile strength of each nail, /u
3. Partial safety factors
Table 2.8 (UKNA to BS EN 1990:2002, Table NA.A1.2(B)) for the ULS
Permanent actions, yg Yg = 1-35
Variable actions yq Yq = 1-5
Material factor for timber, km , Material factor for connections,
KM. connection
4. Actions
Characteristic permanent action,
Characteristic variable action, Qk
Design tensile action for the critical load combination, Fd (Table 2.8, equation (c) using the unfavourable condition variable action)
5. Modification factors Factor for medium-duration loading and service class 2, kmod.med
KM.connection 1-3
Tension member width factor for solid timber, kh (Table 2.11 (EC5, 3.2))
6. Tension strength of the timber
The critical design load case at the ULS will be due to the combination of permanent and unfavourable medium-term duration variable action:
Nails are driven without pre-drilling and are less than 6 mm in diameter. In accordance with 5.3.3 (EC5, 5.2(3)), the loss of area effect can be ignored.
Design tensile stress parallel a 1t.0.d = to the grain in the side members, a 1t.0.d
Design tensile stress parallel a2t.0.d = to the grain in the inner member, a2t.0.d
Design tensile strength parallel /t.0.d = to grain, /t.0.d
Ain kmod.
Design strength exceeds design stress in members; therefore OK
7. Embedment strength of timber
Characteristic embedment strength of timber parallel to the grain, /h.k
The equation incorporates dimension factors for Mathcad:
Characteristic embedment strength of the headside timber, /h.Lk
Characteristic embedment strength of the pointside timber, /h.2.k
8. Yield moment of a nail
Characteristic yield moment of a nail, My.Rk (Table 10.5 (EC5, equation (8.14)).
fh.1.k = fh.k fh.2.k = fh.k fhk = 19.4 N/mm2 fh.1.k = 19.4 N/mm2

Lying rears its ugly head...
Okay, so I am a little psycho about lying and secrets. After working with children who were sexually abused, it is easy to worry about those magic phrases of horror "don't tell anyone" and "It'll be our little secret." I have worked very hard with Monkey trying to get her to understand that we don't keep secrets from mommy and daddy, and we don't lie. (I understand that she will get to a point in her development when she will need to do both those things, but by then she will be old enough to know that she needs to tell me if anything abusive is going on.)
Which is why my mind is in complete panic mode tonight.
My story begins several weeks ago when Devon and I were driving back from Lowe's with Monkey. We were laughing about something and she said "If you two don't stop laughing, I'm gonna kick your ass." I would love to say I was shocked but it was too funny for me to anything but snicker uncontrollably. When Devon and I had regained control, I asked Monkey where she had heard it. She got really quiet and said "I don't want to tell you."
That phrase began the worst night we had had in a long while. It took four hours, a grounding, loss of tv for a week, and loss of computer for a week for her to tell me where she had heard it. So my little plan of teaching my daughter not to keep secrets from me or lie to me had seemingly backfired. We had another long talk about how important it is for her to tell me the truth. We talked about trust and safety. We held firm to the consequences and continue to express the importance of truth and openess in our family.
So tonight she calmly asks me if she can say "what the fuck?". I answered no of course and then asked where she had heard it. Sigh.
"I made it up."
She was in her room in minutes with the directions that she would not leave her room until she told me where she heard it and had stopped lying to me. She spent twenty minutes screaming "I made it up mommy, I promise" before I walked in to her room and told her to look me in the eye and tell me the truth. She calmed down, looked me in the eye, and said "I made it up mommy, I promise."
(At this point, I had a slight problem. The first thing she asked me after I asked her where she heard it was "Are you going to call their mommy and daddy and tell them I told?" I told her I didn't know if I was going to call them but she still needed to tell me who said it. That's when she claimed to have made it up.)
Why would she ask if I was going to tell someone's parents if she made it up? I ask her after being bold faced lied to.
She says "I would really like an answer to that question."
I tell her "I am sure you would, but you can't keep secrets, even if I am going to call their mommy and daddy and tell them, so please stop lying to me."
So she screams "I am not lying to you, I made it up!!"
At this point I want to bang my head against a wall until I can no longer feel pain. Instead, I tell her "fine, I will not call their parents, who said it."
She responds "someone at school" and later gives me a name.
Now the problem is, she has been lying to me over and over and over again for the past half hour, she has begged me to believe the lie, has promised me she is telling the truth, has acted offended that I would doubt her veracity, has looked me in the eye and lied to me. I tell her, you are still grounded in your room, because you lied to me. Why did you lie?
"I wanted to be a good friend."
SO we had a long talk about how lying to mommy and keeping secrets does not make you a good friend, and friends who ask you to keep secrets are not good friends. We talked again about safety and truthfulness and trust.
What in the world am I going to do if she keeps flat out refusing to tell me when other people have done something wrong? How could I have worked this hard to insure her safety, only to have completely screwed it up?

Liar Liar...

Caitlin is lying, too and it seems to be about different things at random. Anything you get emotionally intense about will definitely trigger lying.
Not certain how you can take the emotional aspect out of it, other than instead of questioning directly, go around the side. Flank her, somehow, verbally.
"That's an interesting phrase. Did you hear that at school? What do you think it means?"
Etc. Trying not to lead the witness here, but where else is she when she's not with you?
It gets her out of admitting WHO said it and focuses on where it was said and what does it actually mean. Then you get into the importance of not saying things like that and repeating things she doesn't understand. Skip entirely the blame session on the other kid - are you really going to confront that kid's parents? or the kid directly?
M's concern was protecting her friend - if you avoid triggering that you might have a better strategy.
This, however, is just a guess on my part since my little liar will lie about whether or not the bully hit her. She says he did, teacher says they were no where near one another. Who do you believe? Did he just do it while no one was looking? If it was in the classroom, why didn't she talk to the teacher as she was supposed to? Has he just become the receptacle for all ugliness that occurs in their room? Very likely.
Good luck. Let me know how it goes!

That is a good idea, I am trying to figure out how to get past the "are you going to tell thing."
Basically I am going to try involving her in what might happen. So if she comes home with a problem, she can tell me, and she and I and Daddy will sit down and figure out what to do about it together. Maybe if she has a say it will be easier to come forward?
Sometimes I wish they came with instructions.

Oil above $41 as OPEC predicts 'moderate' rebound
Oil prices dipped slightly in Asia Tuesday but stayed above $41 a barrel as OPEC raised hopes of a moderate rebound from a meeting of key producers in Qatar in April.
At around 0400 GMT, US benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI) for delivery in May, a new contract, was five cents down at $41.47. Brent for May dropped seven cents to $41.47.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries secretary-general Abdalla El-Badri said in Vienna on Monday that about 15 or 16 nations will attend discussions on output caps in Doha on Apr 17, but didn't know whether Iran will join, Bloomberg News reported.
El-Badri also said he hopes that prices have "bottomed", adding that he expects crude to enjoy a moderate bounce rather than reach high levels, Bloomberg reported.
The meeting will follow last month's talks between Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela when they proposed an accord to freeze oil output at January levels.
But Sydney-based CMC Markets analyst Michael McCarthy said traders do not expect much from the Qatar meeting.
"I would be surprised if many people in the oil market are holding out much hope for this meeting," he told AFP.
"The levels of trust required to get so many different nations and companies to curtail their production, I don't think is there. While it may add to the firm tone of the market, I don't think it is a key driver."
Iran has said it would not join the effort until its own crude production reached pre-sanctions levels of 4.0 million barrels per day, about double its current output.
McCarthy added that Monday's dip could also be due to "holiday shortening" ahead of the long Easter weekend.
"The hectic start we've had to the year has left people reaching for the first opportunity to take a bit of a breather," he said.
This follows a buoyant week which lifted WTI above $40 for the first time since December, boosted by a sharp drop in the dollar, which generally makes crude less expensive, and revived optimism that producers would strike a deal to freeze output.

Stress ulcer prophylaxis in critically ill patients: a meta-analysis
ACP J Club. 1992 July-Aug;117:15. doi:10.7326/ACPJC-1992-117-1-015
Source Citation
Cook DJ, Witt LG, Cook RJ, Guyatt GH. Stress ulcer prophylaxis in the critically ill: a meta-analysis. Am J Med. 1991 Nov;91:519-27.
To investigate the effect of drugs for prevention of stress ulceration on overt bleeding and mortality in critically ill patients.
Data sources
Citations to 1990 were retrieved from MEDLINE and EMBASE databases using the key and text words hemorrhage (gastrointestinal), critical care, and clinical trials. Further trials were sought from the bibliographies of relevant articles and from pharmaceutical companies.
Study selection
42 randomized clinical trials that compared prophylactic regimens for overt and clinically important bleeding in the critically ill were selected from 168 articles.
Data extraction
Data on study validity, patient characteristics, drug regimens, and outcomes were independently evaluated. Overt bleeding was defined as hematemesis, bloody gastric aspirate, melena, or hematochezia. Clinically important bleeding was defined as overt bleeding associated with hemodynamic changes or the need for transfusion.
Main results
A total of 4409 patients were evaluated in this overview. Compared with placebo, the incidence of overt bleeding was reduced by antacids (common odds ratio [COR], 0.40; 95% CI, 0.20 to 0.79) and by histamine-2-receptor (H2) antagonists (COR, 0.29; CI, 0.17 to 0.45). Antacids were as effective in reducing overt bleeding as sucralfate (COR, 1.19; CI, 0.62 to 2.29) and prostaglandins (COR, 0.99). H2-antagonists reduced overt bleeding events more than antacids (COR, 0.56; CI, 0.33 to 0.97) but not more than pirenzepine (COR, 3.78; CI, 1.33 to 14.45) or sucralfate (COR, 1.77; CI, 0.78 to 3.96). Compared with placebo, H2-antagonists reduced the incidence of clinically important bleeding (COR, 0.35; CI, 0.15 to 0.76) as did antacids (COR, 0.35; CI, 0.08 to 1.33; not significant). CIs for CORs all included unity in comparisons of the incidence of clinically important bleeding between antacids and sucralfate (COR, 0.65) or prostaglandins (COR, 1.04), or when H2-antagonists were compared with antacids (COR, 0.84) or with sucralfate (COR, 0.95). Mortality did not differ significantly in any comparison of medications or placebo.
The incidence of overt gastrointestinal bleeding in critically ill patients is reduced by pirenzepine, histamine-2-receptor antagonists, or antacids. Histamine-2-receptor antagonists also reduce the incidence of clinically important bleeding. Stress ulcer prophylaxis does not affect mortality.
Source of funding: No external funding.
Address for article reprint: Dr. D.J. Cook, Department of Medicine, Division of Critical Care, St. Joseph's Hospital, 50 Charlton Avenue East, Hamilton, Ontario L8N 4A6.
The meta-analysis of stress ulcer prophylaxis by Cook and colleagues compared with that by Tryba (1), abstracted in the January/February 1992 issue of ACP Journal Club, raises several issues. Both articles conclude that antacids and H2-antagonists significantly reduce overt bleeding when compared with no prophylaxis, reiterating the conclusions of earlier meta-analyses by Lacroix and colleagues (2) and Shuman and colleagues (3). Newer agents (sucralfate, pirenzepine, and the prostaglandins) were also evaluated by both Cook and colleagues and by Tryba. From their analyses of published data, they disagree about the efficacy of sucralfate and pirenzepine, and their differences may be of substantial clinical importance. Cook finds a trend favoring antacids over sucralfate for overt bleeding, and Tryba does not. Cook finds a trend that favors sucralfate over antacids and H2-antagonists for lower mortality, and Tryba reports that sucralfate significantly reduces mortality. If the latter is true, should not all patients receive sucralfate?
Meta-analyses can disagree for many possible reasons that are related to the quality of each effort. The control of biases in the selection of papers and extraction of data is most important (4). The databases of Cook and colleagues and of Tryba are not identical. Further, neither article presents all of the results from each study in ways that allow the reader to decide which is correct. They should resolve the issue forthwith by comparing their data and reporting the results.

What does happiness mean to you?
Posted on 22nd September 2017 at 14:11
Have you ever sat down and worked out what happiness is for you?
I am going to talk about happiness today because I talk about happiness all the time, but particularly today I want to know if you know what your happiness is.
What does happiness mean to you?
What is happiness for you?
Have you ever sat down and worked out what happiness is for you or is it this sort of ethereal thing, this sort of aspiration of happiness?
Or have you actually sat down and thought, "If I was happy what would my life look like? If I was happy how would I feel? If I was happy who would I be with? If I was happy what would I be doing? If I was happy what would I work at? If I was happy where would I live? How much money would I have? What would I drive?"
Have you ever defined it for yourself?
For me, happiness is my husband and my two daughters. They are absolutely top of the list. It's me being with my husband and my two daughters. Happiness is me doing the work that I do because I properly love doing what I do. Part of my happiness definition is working in schools. Running workshops in businesses are part of my happiness. Writing stuff for my Happiness Club members is part of my happiness. Speaking at events is part of my happiness because all of those things fulfil and satisfy me and thus add to my happiness. So that is there on my definition of happiness. Writing is happiness for me so getting the opportunity to write whether it is about happiness or something else, that is part of my happiness.
I know all of these things because I have sat down a while ago now. and worked out for myself what my happiness looks like; what I need to have in my life; what I need to be doing; the people I need around me, in order for my life to be a happy one. I have worked that out. I have taken the time to do it.
Now a lot of the people that I know draw up goals and plans for their work, for their business life but I don't know that many people that do it for their personal life and actually I heartily believe, as most of you know, that what we are all after, at the end of the day, what is at the end of that rainbow for every single one of us is happiness.
A lot of people view happiness as a destination; personally I don't. I think happiness is in every single second of every single minute of every single hour of every single day of every single week of your life. It is not a destination for me, but it is something that you can define. It is something that you should define for yourself.
Define the things you already have in your life that make you happy and the things that you would like in your life that would make you happy. This is one of the exercises that I am going to be teaching on my Happiness Retreat which is happening on the 28th-29th of October this year at the beautiful Shrigley Hall in Cheshire.
On the retreat you will get the chance to sit down and pay attention, to define this stuff for yourself. Honestly it is such an invaluable exercise to do, such a valuable exercise to do to pinpoint for yourself what makes you happy. To know what is already in your life that makes you happy. To know that, to have the knowledge instead of just walking past all this stuff with blinkers on every day, to pay attention to it now and to know what you want to get, what you still aspire to having in order to help you maintain that happiness. We have a vague idea of it but I want people to get a concrete picture: a firm, clear, lovely gorgeous picture in their heads of all the stuff that is happiness for them.
What is happiness for me might not be happiness for you. It is entirely personal and I am going to help you, on my retreat, work out what it is for you. So come and join me on my retreat.
