The ...Lost Quiver Killer extends the range of the …Lost Short Round by adding a touch more overall rocker and changing the exit to a roundtail. As the model name implies, this design has an extremely wide range of use, from grovelly zippers to overhead barrels.
Tech Specs
• Hybrid outline with generous width thru the nose
• Flatter entry rocker
• Slightly more overall rocker than the …Lost Short Round to keep it loose in small waves and keep it in control in the bigger stuff
• Single to double concave bottom shape
• 5-fin convertible
We tested this board on an 8-day trip to Surfari Charters in Nicaragua. Surf ranged from waist high to 2 feet overhead. We surfed river mouths, beach breaks, reef breaks and points.
Nica test quiver: (top to bottom) Maurice Cole Prowtow, ...Lost Baby Buggy, Maurice Cole Dirty Dingo, ...Lost Quiver Killer
Here are the things that really impressed us most about this board:
Mega range:
This is a great single board for all but the smallest and biggest surf.
...Lost Quiver Killer top of the stack and ready to attack.
We spent most of our time surfing out of a boat, so not only was space tight, but a lot of times you were paddling in to the waves rather than out to them. This makes judging the wave size and power a bit harder. We found the Quiver Killer to be a trusty "go to" no matter where we were surfing and how big or small the surf was.
The ...Lost Baby Buggy (left) and Quiver Killer (right).
It handled the medium to larger stuff as well as the outline and tail shape would indicate. Great paddle speed to get in early and set your line. The roundtail drew really smooth lines and held with confidence in the barrel.
We surfed a few bigger days in a wide range of wave types from long walled up points to heaving, thick beach break barrels. In the larger walled up points, the Quiver Killer had noticeable drive down the line plus good glide thru long wraps on flatter faces. On the beachies, the Quiver Killer got you in early and made setting up for the barrel easier. The roundtail was easier to control on the steeper faces than the squash tail that is standard on the Short Round. Small, medium, big. Flat, walled up or heaving. The Quiver Killer killed it all.
Impressively loose and nimble in smaller waves:
Even in the small stuff, the Quiver Killer shows some zip and gets the job done.
As impressive as the overall range, was the Quiver Killer's performance in smaller surf. Most of the time, when you take a board with an outline like this and try and make it work in smaller waves, it feels long and stiff. The Quiver Killer's width combined with just a pinch of additional overall rocker made it feel loose and nimble in smaller waves.
You can obviously grovel with more speed and power on a ...Lost Puddle Jumper or similar, but the Quiver Killer performs admirably in the smaller stuff and is loose and fast enough to keep you stoking. We had some days, where at the wrong tides, surf dropped to thigh to waist high over cobble stone reef. The Quiver Killer felt right at home, surfing loose and fast in the pocket. The wider/flatter nose gets you into waves easily and with speed, setting you up to tear apart little zippers.
The Quiver Killer seemed to cover a slightly wider range of surf than the ...Lost Mini Driver, especially on the small side and with front footed surfers. The Mini Driver is still a popular and relevant design and excels in punchier surf especially with neutral or back-footed surfers.
While the Quiver Killer covered everything we encountered, you may still want something narrower on the bigger/hollower days. The Quiver Killer held fine, it just felt slower rail to rail when you really didn't need the extra width for any part of the session. If all you're surfing are flatter faced waves or walled up points, it will handle and excel in anything you can paddle it into.
Throughout the course of the 8-day trip, we surfed our Quiver Killer set up both as a quad and a thruster. Just like the Mini Driver, the quad loosened it up and gave it some extra speed in the small stuff. If works really well with both set ups, so whether you're a Tri guy or a quad fan, you're going to like this board. The fins we ended up liking the best on this board were the FCS2 Mayhem L 5-fin set, as well as the FCS2 Performer XL thruster, with medium sized FCS2 Performer Quad trailers when switching it up to quad set up. These fins were all sized around a larger surfer, so size down for lighter weights.
You're looking for a high performance hybrid design with maximum range of use, small waves thru pumping daze. By itself, it's a great board for clean thigh high through well overhead surf. If you're adding it to your quiver, the Quiver Killer fills the middle of your bag perfectly or makes the ultimate single travel board for surf zones like Central America or similar.

The Michael Jackson saga has claimed another victim.
Evan Chandler, whose son accused the King of Pop of child molestation in the '90s, was found dead in his New Jersey home, the victim of a self-inflicted gun shot wound to the head.
Chandler was found on Nov. 5, alone in the bed of his Liberty Towers home with a revolver in his hands, Jersey City police spokesman Stan Eason said on Tuesday, reported the New York Post. There was no sign of foul play and his death was ruled a suicide, added Eason.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
In 1993, Jordy Chandler, then 13, was under anesthesia for a tooth extraction when he first told his father, then a Beverly Hills dentist, that Michael Jackson had molested him.
The claim led to a 13-month investigation into the allegations of sexual abuse but never led to criminal charges after Jackson settled the case for some $20 million.
In addition to his dental practice, Evan Chandler also had a writing credit on Mel Brooks' "Robin Hood: Men in Tights," which was released the same year his son accused Jackson of touching him.
But the riches from the Jackson settlement and the success of Chandler's budding screenwriting career were not enough to keep the family together. Jordy was at one point estranged from his mother, before returning to her after accusing his father in 2006 of attacking him with a dumbbell.
Strangely, Evan Chandler, like Jackson, underwent a series of plastic surgeries. The procedures were the result of a mixture of vanity and paranoia about being attacked by still angry Jackson fans, a source told the Post.
Chandler, who had a "serious medical issue," was found dead when a building worker checked on him at the request of a doctor who became concerned when Chandler missed a doctor's appointment, Eason said.
"There was no note found in the apartment but officers did find medication in keeping with a serious medical condition," Eason said. "Mr. Chandler's body has now been returned to his family."

How Edward Vivona Stands Out From The Competition!!
KINDLY NOTE: All Of The Upcoming "Red" URL's/Text,
Offer HOT "Clickable" Links!
Please take a brief moment to read below, insight as to how I stand out from any other Real Estate Agency or agent. Hopefully, you'll afford me the opportunity to show you though your confidence, while representing you in all your Real Estate ventures.
For the the potential BUYERS out there, I "PREVIEW" , thoroughly research any, all homes you have an interest in. I know how precious your time is, to you and your family. At times, there will be homes that will not suit your needs, wouldn't you like to know prior to a showing? Many times I have visited a home on behalf of one of my clients and "taken additional photographs"…. if I'm permitted of course. I'll do the same for you, I'll then email them to you… allowing you to get a better feel for the home, before you commit your time to a preview.
Now for the SELLERS, are you THINKING OF MARKETING YOUR HOME? I build, I provide complimentary, Custom Single Property Websites for all my listings, big or small, at any price-point. SO HOW DOES THIS BENEFIT YOU? Well, besides having a great looking website for your home, with the web address or URL being your home's actual address, it will be prominently displayed on your lawn sign (www.3WithersLane.com) This business practice, this marketing technique offers potential Buyers all there is to know about your home, the area, including school reports but perhaps most importantly, unlimited, professional photographs, which is the number one search criteria for Buyers shopping on the Internet,…and the Internet, is where 90% of them begin their home search.
This effort empowers me to market your home anywhere on the web, syndicating your home's website to the most powerful search engines the web has to offer, places like Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. All agents will tell you your home will be professionally photographed,…perhaps. As for me, in addition to being an area Real Estate professional, an award winning marketeer, I'm also a professional photographer which enables me, to visually tell your homes entire story through my skill sets, showcasing your home to it's full potential!
Here are examples of single property websites for your review (All Photographs Taken By Me).
In offering unlimited high definition (HD) photos, the ability to add surveys, amenities list, floor plans,… virtually any documents to your website that will help showcase your home, I leave no stone unturned towards maximized effort, maximized exposure.
Single property websites also offer the luxury of "unlimited text" and featured bullet points, to properly explain all the nuances of your home unlike the MLS Systems which put limitations on: the quality, number of photographs, the amount of supportive copy/content. To keep my clients in the loop, I customarily provide "traffic reports".
My listings are routinely on the top position on Real Estate search sites like Homes.com, Trulia, Zillow, etc. due to the amount of photos I provide for my listings. I always upload the maximum amount of photos allowed. One example would be Realtor.com, which allows for up to 36 .
Whether you're looking to market or purchase a home, I've only scratched the surface on how I am uniquely different. I've not only explained to you, I have shown you by example, with those "BLUE" links. Ask the same of whom every your considering. Ask them to SHOW you, just as I have….then give me a call!
I challenge you to find a more compelling reason to align yourself with any other Real Estate agent or agency.
Give me a call to experience what so many already know,…but don't take my word for it, you can read more about Ed here:

Somebody please make it stop.
That Jamaican, he keeps messin' with our heads.
Usain Bolt keeps doing things that shouldn't be done. Things that boggle the mind.
He makes older sprinters start to think about other careers. He makes liars out of track commentators.
This time, the fastman from Trelawny, Jamaica, brutalized his own 200-meter world record set last year in Beijing.
Today, at the world championships in Berlin, he ran the 200 meter sprint in 19.19 seconds. And he won going away with the largest margin of victory in that race in Olympic or world history.
That's two world records in one week. Five world records in his last five championship races.
Staying loose
Before the race, Bolt strolled around the track taking in the atmosphere while sporting a Jamaican warm-up shirt with the slogan: "Ich bin ein Berliner."
He traded fake punches with fellow competitor (and fellow goof-off), American sprinter, Wallace Spearmon.
He moved toward the camera, put his right hand, then his left hand "through" his hair and said to the world: "Come get me."
At that point, no one but Bolt thought he'd set a world record - let alone win.
Days earlier, American sprinter Shawn Crawford called Bolt a dragon, followed by, "but I'm a dragon slayer."
Um, not this time.
American sprinting legend Michael Johnson told Agence France-Presse that he didn't think Bolt would break a record.
"His exertions this week have taken a lot out of him," said Mr. Johnson, whose 200m world record was broken by Bolt in Beijing last year in the Olympic final when the Jamaican ran 19.30 seconds. "He's also been very busy and he looks tired. It is certainly less possible than it was a few nights ago. Also he has said that his training this year hasn't been as good as last year."
Just before the race former championship sprinter and NBC announcer, Ato Boldon, said that Bolt would not set a world record.
Moments later, Boldon was noshing on crow.
Bolt led from the get-go and by the midway point he was meters ahead of a pack of the world's fastest runners. He crossed the finish line with a grimace.
"He made a liar out of me tonight," said Mr. Boldon. "That's what I get for doubting the Lightning Bolt."
"This might be the biggest and greatest world record he's broken," Boldon said, explaining that the track world had thought Bolt would struggle for a long time to get anywhere near 19.20.
MJ, Tiger, …. Bolt?
This all begs the question: Is it too early to start talking about Bolt in the same breath as other athletes whose performance literally changed their sport, champions such as Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods?
Too early? The answer has to be an emphatic "No."
Bolt isn't a flash in the pan. A flash, yes. He's proven he can consistently shatter world records – one after another. That just does not happen. Period.
He's now the first man to ever hold both the 100 and the 200 meter world and Olympic records.
Cynics say it has to be drugs. Unfortunately, given the number of disgraced sprinters caught doping in recent years – most of whom, it must be said, have been Americans – people do ask that question. In time, the truth will win out. Till then, there's no reason to presume guilt.
Too tall to run?
One way his times may be explained is his build. Sprinters aren't supposed to be tall.
Typically, people with Bolt's lanky, 6'5" frame cannot match the times of stocky sprinters. They can't turn their strides over quickly enough. Bolt, somehow, can. So, he's got the turnover of his stockier peers, but the length of stride of a longer-distance runner. It's kind of like the flipper-like feet and double-jointed arms that give top swimmer Michael Phelps an edge.
And then there's the fact that Bolt is Jamaican. Let's face it, Jamaica has replaced America as the top sprinting nation. And it's a long-time coming, given the country's love of the sport, the fact that it's one of few tickets out of poverty, and that the world's best coaches now come from there.
(Read my story from Jamaica about why the country breeds so many top sprinters.)
While reporting that story in Kingston, I met with supercoach Stephen Francis of the MVP track club, which stands for Maximizing Velocity and Power. The maverick coach certainly doesn't give tips from his own experience. The rotund man's fastest time may only be to the nearest jerk chicken shack.
Seriously, though, he's done wonders.
Today, Jamaican Melaine Walker became the latest MVP star to win a gold medal during these championships with her win in the 400m hurdles. She follows the fastest woman in the world, Shelly-Ann Fraser (Jamaican gold in the 100m) and Brigitte Foster-Hylton (and yes, Jamaican gold in the 100m hurdles).
"The MVP group out of Kingston, Jamaica, is having a fantastic championships," said Boldon, when describing Melaine Walker's gold medal in the 400-meter hurdles.
It's the yams, stupid!
Here's my theory: The reason people think these are drug-assisted victories is that when we watch Bolt it looks like WE must be on drugs. It's an other worldly experience.
Jamaican sprinters were so tired of getting tested for drugs during the Olympics last year that they started joking about the International Olympic Committee cooking up a new list of banned substances. No. 1 on that list, they laughed, would be yams - the staple of a rural Jamaican diet.
In fact, Bolt's garish designer track shoes are the result of that inside joke: bright orange because that's the color of cooked yams.
What do you think is going to be on the training menu of US and European sprinters next week?

This week on Peter Krause Comically Walks Through African-American Neighborhoods, And Everybody Looks At Him Strangely Because Of How He's Dressed, a baby was born. This was no great surprise, particularly if you watch the ads or watch the "next week on" promos or saw that the title of the episode was "Nora" and thought, "Hey, there's no one on this show named Nora. I wonder which crazy new character will be introduced?" And while there are some really silly, really stupid moments in this episode, I kind of loved it all the same. It could just be the fact that there are babies involved, and everybody likes babies. It could also be the fact that this episode—like the best episodes of Erika Christensen Walks Into A Hospital And Says Give Me All Of The Babies, Please—really nails the way it is to be having an argument with someone in your family and then have something happen that supersedes all of that and pulls you closer together.
That ending really works to pull this episode together. It's the stuff beforehand that… has its problems, to put it mildly. In particular, the Julia and Joel storyline continues on its calamitous way, and tonight, we got to watch the two show off their skills at being a nuclear family, to the degree that Julia's best, baby-bearing pal, the Coffee Girl, was so impressed that she decided, against her better judgment to let them adopt her baby, who will be a little boy. Now, the scene where Julia hugged her for making her decision was a pretty sweet one, but everything leading up to this was just ridiculously silly, contrived within an inch of its life to get the Coffee Girl (whose name I refuse to learn because I'm petulant about this plotline) inside the Julia/Joel manse, where Sydney could charm her by painting Joel's fingernails and touching her pregnant stomach. ("Cool," says Sydney, who knows nothing about the struggles of being single and pregnant in modern society and just thinks pregnancy is a grand mystery or something. FIGHT THE PATRIARCHY, SYD!)
Anyway, it more or less makes sense that this girl would be impressed by the gentle, loving home life of Julia and Joel—who is the greatest person in the history of life itself—but so moved that she decides to overcome her previously stated positions? That she decides to give her baby to a known crazy person? It's not that I fundamentally dislike the idea of the Coffee Girl giving birth to Julia and Joel's new child. It's that the ending a few weeks ago—where she said she wanted a closed adoption and couldn't imagine anything else—was such a touching close for this story that even if the writers had wanted to go on with it, I wish they had just had Julia helping Coffee Girl out where she could and not being immediately rewarded for doing so. It wasn't even like she had to struggle for this! She was just nice for a day or so, and that was it. Baby! I get that this show doesn't like to push the conflict too hard, but this is really just ridiculous.
Over in other parts of the show, everybody's got baby fever. The Adam/Crosby/Kristina stuff was some of the stronger material those three have had in a while, and despite the aforementioned very stupid scene of Adam walking around in what he imagined to be hip hop gear (that would have always looked stupid on him but would have looked less stupid in 2005), there was a lot to enjoy here. Adam realizing he couldn't hip it up and asking Crosby to grab him a suit was good. (The partnership works so much better if Crosby is Crosby and Adam is Adam.) Crosby exaggerating… or lying… about whether Mista Ray was on board was also good, as was Kristina's slow devolution once she realized that everything was not going according to plan and took it out on her brother-in-law. And then, of course, because this is television, her water broke. (Water is always waiting for the slightest provocation to break on TV.) But the scene where she and Crosby were at the hospital together, and he had to be a fill-in Adam was just great. Here are these two people who are diametrically opposed opposites, now bound together in a moment of extreme excitement and change. And then little Nora is born, and all of the Bravermans come together for one, nice moment. (Also good: Adam going ahead with the meeting with Mista Ray, though he was ridiculously dressed.)
My favorite part of the episode, however, was my favorite part of every episode of Amber And Max Watch YouTube Videos Of Bill Clinton To Learn About Feelings And Stuff. The idea of putting Amber and Max together ended up being quite inspired, and I loved how she very slowly plied him with Tootsie Rolls to get him to understand how to give Jabbar an effective apology. Basically everything about this storyline worked, from the performances to the writing to the central conceit, and if this is all a setup to get Amber to be Max's new afternoon helper, then I think that's a great idea. (I don't think Kristina mentioning Gaby was for nothing.) Every time the story cut back to this storyline, I was thrilled just to watch these two interact. Odd character pairings seemed to be the order of the day for this episode (except for Julia, who continues to be stuck off in her own show), and this was the one that worked best for me.
Finally, there's Sarah and her ex-husband, who returns just to get drunk and have Zeek kick his ass. There's so little of this storyline that I'm going to reserve judgment on it until next week's episode rolls around and gives us a better sense of what's going on. The big John Corbett arc last season was one of the best things the show did last year, and it also gave Miles Heizer something good to play. But there's always a temptation to go back to a well like that over and over again, and I'm not sure what new will be added this time beyond the obvious drama of him falling off the wagon so spectacularly and Jason Ritter Is An English Teacher Who Loves Your Mom not being sure what to do in this situation. It's not bad or anything; it's just the sort of storyline that gives me pause without really knowing what's coming next.
But, hey, babies. And, ultimately, that's all this episode had to do. Now that Nora's here, let's all hope she doesn't take over The Nora Braverman Show with her maniacal ways. (She almost certainly will.)
Stray observations:
- Missing Braverman of the week: For getting over a break-up and having her parents have another kid, Haddie sure was absent this week. She pops up at the end, looking happy about having a new baby sister, but you know she's gotta be plotting.
- So Max is in the fifth grade, eh? That would make him 10 or 11, by my count. Is that at all believable with the actor playing him? I guess sort of. But it's a stretch.
- Jabbar is always ready to accept an apology quickly, which makes him a contender for Braverman of the week every week. You just know Kristina would still be harboring a grudge.
- Oh, right. Jasmine is dating Principal Wood. Crosby is upset about it because, well, when isn't Crosby upset about a woman wanting to sleep with someone other than him? On the other hand, he's dating a girl named Tough, so he has it pretty good.
- Braverman of the week: Amber. Your terrible haircut has started to look like a decent haircut, and your ability to coach Max using videos of presidents in their moments of greatest disgrace is unparalleled. For this, we salute you, Amber. (Runner-up: Nora. For all her diabolical plans. AND FOR BEING SUCH A CUTE WIDDLE BABY. YES SHE IS. YES SHE IS!)

Mitt Romney has been a governor and run the Olympics.
"The taxpayers shouldn't have to have money taken out of their paychecks to pay people in government, who are our servants, who are making a lot more money than we are."
It's the tail end of that remark that really smarts if you're a federal employee. Romney's net worth hovers between $200 million and $300 million, in spite of being "unemployed," as he told a group of jobless Floridians in June 2011. A top career civil servant in the Senior Executive Service will earn $179,700 in 2012, the same annual salary as in 2011, when the current federal pay freeze took effect. Many federal employees earn more than a metal worker in Iowa, but none, including President Obama, has ever made money like Romney, the former head of a leading global private investment firm and savior of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Romney wasn't really talking statistics at that stop in Dubuque, though. The "we" in his statement was designed to underscore something he emphasizes nearly every chance he gets: He's not a government guy, he's a business guy.
Romney spent four years as governor of Massachusetts and crafted a state health insurance program that served in part as the template for his Democratic rival's national health care reform law. But the son of a former federal housing secretary, Republican presidential candidate and Michigan governor has spent most of his career in the private sector as a business management and consulting whiz. Mitt Romney relates first and foremost to the business world: its people, its methods, its emphasis on data-driven results and its bottom-line sensibilities. That's just what he told those metal workers in Iowa: "I've spent my life doing what you guys are doing; I've spent my life in the private sector. I spent my time in business."
You might ask why a person with that background wants to run the federal government. But a more useful question is: How will Romney, a chief executive officer by trade and disposition, manage a workforce of 2 million employees who operate in a Byzantine network of agencies, departments, regulations and programs?
"Government is a Fortune 1 company," says Alan Balutis, senior director of the business solutions group at Cisco Systems Inc., who spent a big part of his career in government. In other words, the American government is in a league of its own as a business.
'Simpler, Smaller, Smarter'
George W. Bush was billed as the first MBA president, but if Romney is elected, he'll be the first CEO in the White House. Romney positioned himself as the first CEO governor in Massachusetts, and he has adopted that brand on the presidential campaign trail. The founder of global private investment firm Bain Capital frequently talks about making government more efficient, whether it's through consolidating agencies and programs or scaling back on federal workers' pay and benefits. "Those three things—making government simpler, smaller and smarter—means getting rid of programs, turning programs back to states and finally making government itself more efficient," Romney told the Dubuque audience. "Now, for me, this is not an impossible dream. It's something I've seen happen in other settings."
Romney the rainmaker helped Bain reap billions during his 15-year tenure there, according to The Real Romney, a 2012 biography by Boston Globe reporters Michael Kranish and Scott Helman. Some companies prospered as a result of Bain's investment in their operations: Gartner Inc., a small technology research firm before Bain invested, is now a multibillion-dollar company with thousands of employees. Others, such as Damon Corp., a Needham, Massachusetts-based medical testing firm, closed its plant and laid off 115 people when Corning Inc. bought it—a deal Bain helped orchestrate, and which made the venture capital firm a lot of money.
A winning formula for cutting deals, streamlining operations and making money in the private equity world, however, doesn't always translate well to government. "Business, per se, is not a model for anything," says Clay Johnson, who served as deputy director for management at the Office of Management and Budget during the George W. Bush administration.
In government, Johnson says, the focus should be "on goals that are good for America." Leaders have to clarify why they believe their goals are appropriate and be transparent and results-oriented in how they aim to achieve them, he adds. Many business executives are not good at those things.
Focusing on efficiency is not useful, because it simply means "people have to work longer and harder," and there are ways to be more efficient that are not always effective at improving government, Johnson says. "I think the focus of any management agenda that has a chance of success has to be on government effectiveness."
As Massachusetts governor, Romney set out to shrink government, but did not make it significantly smaller, according to The Real Romney. His cuts to the state bureaucracy were "fairly modest," the book notes.
"After four years, he reduced the payroll of agencies under his direct control by 603 jobs, according to his administration's tally," states the book. "By contrast, a Republican predecessor, William F. Weld, had closed state hospitals, privatized services and slashed about 7,700 jobs during his first term, though the numbers had later increased when the economy improved."
On the campaign trail, Romney strikes an activist tone on the subject of remaking the federal bureaucracy, although he has avoided providing specifics about his plans. He told campaign donors during an April closed-door fundraiser in Florida that he intended to restructure the bureaucracy, in remarks that were overheard by reporters outside the event.
"I'm going to take a lot of departments in Washington and agencies and combine them," Romney said, according to a report from NBC's Garrett Haake. "Some eliminate, but I'm probably not going to lay out just exactly which ones are going to go. Things like Housing and Urban Development, which my dad was head of, that might not be around later. But I'm not going to actually go through these one by one. What I can tell you is, we've got far too many bureaucrats. I will send a lot of what happens in Washington back to the states."
As governor, though, Romney wasn't always a fan of delegating down. Take, for example, the comprehensive security plan he crafted for the 351 cities and towns in Massachusetts. In 2004, he told National Journal, a sister publication of Government Executive, that one of the state's biggest challenges in that area was a lack of uniformity. He said avoiding ending up with a "hodgepodge of equipment" meant keeping a tight rein on how funds were distributed. Massachusetts' grant process for receiving homeland security funds has "carefully delineated criteria," he said, and the Homeland Security Department regarded the state's system as a model.
Of course, talk of eliminating and reorganizing government agencies is nothing new from presidential candidates. Former GOP presidential contender Rick Perry famously forgot during a November 2011 debate which three departments he wanted to scrap; fellow Republican presidential hopeful and Texas Rep. Ron Paul pledged to get rid of several agencies.
"That's all about politics, not how you go about changing things," says Johnson.
Balutis agrees that Romney could be mirroring the GOP primary campaign rhetoric of smaller government when he talks about restructuring or eliminating agencies. "Somebody with his background, as a business and management consultant, you would really expect someone to take a more ordered and rational look at what is the largest, and some would say, most complex organization, on the globe," he says.
Massachusetts Morale
When Romney took over as Massachusetts governor in 2003, the Bay State faced a budget crisis, with a potential $650 million deficit and a projected 2004 shortfall of more than $3 billion. He raised millions in revenue by charging residents more for permits, licenses and other services, according to The Real Romney.
Romney and his team also looked for savings and efficiencies within the commonwealth, attempting to overhaul agencies and programs with mixed success. He consolidated some agencies within Massachusetts' health and human services organization, but a plan to streamline its public university system did not win support. Other proposals, including one to reclassify hundreds of government attorneys as political appointees and create a new Office of the Solicitor General in the governor's office, met strong resistance from workers and interest groups and ultimately were unsuccessful. Romney also floated the possibility of laying off some attorneys, including many in the state's Environmental Protection Department, and looked into the legality of barring government lawyers from union membership.
"He approached government like a hostile takeover," says Kyla Bennett, a former attorney at the federal Environmental
Protection Agency in Massachusetts, and current director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility in New England. Bennett said morale among state civil servants during Romney's tenure was "awful."
Romney issued a gag order early in his term forbidding state environmental employees to speak with the media or have contact with members of the legislature. Violators were subject to disciplinary action. In addition, Romney moved citizen appeals of decisions by the Environmental Protection Department from under the purview of independent administrative law judges to political appointees, a practice still in place today under Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick.
Kerry Healey, who served as Romney's lieutenant governor in Massachusetts and currently is an adviser to his presidential campaign, says morale was "quite good" among the state workforce during Romney's term, citing his commitment to increasing diversity in hiring, especially women, to the top ranks of government. Romney created the commonwealth's first human resources and diversity officer, a job held by Ruth Bramson, the current CEO of the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts. Healey also notes Romney's efforts at "rooting out a culture of patronage in state government." As governor, he barred family members of his Cabinet and senior staff from lobbying the government.
Rubbing Elbows
Backslapping, glad-handing politics has never been Romney's strong suit, in business or government. His reluctance to engage in horse-trading could prove problematic if he's elected president, particularly in dealing with Congress. As governor, Romney—the son of a natural-born politico—saw his agenda derailed more than a few times by a legislature put off by his policies, but also his personality. Romney frequently couldn't remember state lawmakers' names and often did not extend them the little courtesies they'd come to expect from the state's executive, according to reporters Kranish and Helman. Romney attempted to make changes through executive orders and other directives, but he couldn't ignore the legislature altogether.
"Many other moves to reform state government required legislative support, and there Romney often faltered," they write. "That was partly because he showed little interest in the lawmakers themselves. He and his brainy, idealistic staff seemed too often blind to the fact that sweeping reforms, even if they made great sense in a white paper, counted for nothing unless the spade work had been done to cultivate legislative support." One state lawmaker the book quoted said Romney was "far removed" from the daily operations of government.
The annual federal budget, department reorganizations and changes to employees' pension plans are just a few of the many things affecting the operations of government that require congressional approval. And even under the best of circumstances, getting anything through both chambers of Congress and to the president's desk is nothing short of a miracle these days.
As of early August, the House had passed only six of the 12 annual appropriations bills, while the Senate was 0 for 12. Lawmakers reportedly had cut a deal on a six-month stopgap funding measure to avoid (again) a government shutdown when the fiscal year ends Sept. 30. Congress undoubtedly will be just one of Romney's headaches if he's elected president.
Romney's reluctance to engage in retail politics makes it even more important for him to surround himself with people who can effectively communicate and execute a government management agenda. One person he already has looked to is his running mate, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis. Even before Romney picked Ryan, the two enjoyed an easy camaraderie on the campaign trail that some observers credit with loosening up Romney. Ryan has supported an extended pay freeze for federal workers, an increase in the amount they contribute to their pensions and reductions to the federal workforce through attrition. Romney and Ryan are in sync policywise, at least as far as issues affecting government workers go.
Another key relationship is with former Utah governor and friend Mike Leavitt, whom Romney tapped to lead his transition team, dubbed the Readiness Project. Leavitt was governor of Utah when Romney shepherded the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City through crisis and spent a decent amount of time in the federal government, serving as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and Health and Human Services secretary during the Bush administration.
Leavitt is known for his fondness of using technology to improve government, particularly when he was governor. Shortly after he was sworn in as head of EPA in 2003, he delivered a wide-ranging address to agency employees on policy issues, but also went out of his way to praise federal workers. "I came into this office with great respect for the work of the agency and as a believer in its mission," he said. "Every day spent here has only heightened my admiration. It also has affirmed the greatest certainty I had going in—that I would be surrounded by the best people in the world." Leavitt could end up as chief of staff in a Romney White House.
Building Relationships
Showing appreciation for federal workers is part of cultivating a good relationship with them, says Johnson. The former head of Bush's transition team says Colin Powell, who served as secretary of State during the Bush administration, was particularly adept at forging a rapport with his workforce. "Colin Powell made it very clear to them that he was for their success and for helping them make State the darnedest department it could be," Johnson says.
Romney's transition team has reached out to some of Bush's management point people for input on different issues, according to Balutis and Robert Shea, an associate OMB director during the Bush years, who is now a principal at Grant Thornton, LLP. Shea, who says he's been contacted by the campaign, believes government management and making the "day-to-day operations more efficient and effective" will be a primary focus of Romney if he is elected, based on his track record in the public, private and nonprofit sectors. "Pulling off the Olympics, that's almost a metaphor for the government as a whole," Shea says, praising Romney's turnaround of the scandal-ridden and fiscally troubled Salt Lake Games. A Romney administration likely would pull from the "deep bench of talent" in the GOP, Shea says, as well as the business world.
When it comes to relating to federal employees, Romney will come in saddled with his repeated statements on the campaign trail that they are overpaid relative to their private sector counterparts. He says he would "align" their compensation packages with industry and "stop the unfairness of government workers getting better pay and benefits than the taxpayers they serve." He also wants to shrink the federal workforce through attrition.
Based on his proposals in Massachusetts, government employees could expect a more aggressive approach to consolidating and streamlining government than the Obama administration has taken so far.
Would that put Romney at odds with his own employees?
If it did, it might not make him that different than his predecessor. "President Obama has not shown an interest in enhancing the morale and engagement of federal employees," argues Shea. What about reports of low morale among state government workers during Romney's tenure in Massachusetts? "I think if that's the case, which I am not aware that it is," Shea says, "there's not a contrast between President Obama and Mitt Romney."

Second ingredient is a named meat product
Insufficient meat content, meat and fat of unidentifiable origin, controversial filler
The first ingredient in this food is wheat. Although apparently a whole grain, wheat is believed by many to be the leading cause of food allergy problems in dog foods. Even if this had been a decent grain, however, we would still note that grains are not a natural foodstuff for canines and are of very low quality compared to meat (on which dog foods should instead be based). The second ingredient is a named meat product, in meal form.
Animal fat, third on the ingredient list, is an ingredient of unidentified origin for which it is impossible to determine species, source or quality. Unidentified ingredients are usually very low quality. AAFCO define this asobtained from the tissues of mammals and/or poultry in the commercial processes of rendering or extracting. It consists predominantly of glyceride esters of fatty acids and contains no additions of free fatty acids. If an antioxidant is used, the common name or names must be indicated, followed by the words "used as a preservative". We note that research at Purdue University has identified fat in the top four ingredients of dry dog foods as a factor increasing the risk of bloat in large breed dogs. Smaller breeds are untested.
Meat digest meal is a low quality ingredient, similarly of unidentifiable origin with indeterminate source and quality (such ingredients are almost always extremely low quality). Fish meal is potentially better quality but we find no sign on the manufacturer's site that all protein ingredients purchased are preserved with substances other than ethoxyquin (ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative, commonly added to fish meal ingredients, but that is banned or heavily regulated in human food due to the belief that it is carcinogenic). Chicken, the 7th ingredient is not a meat meal, but instead is inclusive of water content (about 80%). Once this is removed, as it must be to create a dehydrated product, the ingredient will weigh around 20% of its wet weight. As ingredients are listed in order of weight, it is thus unlikely that this ingredient is truely amongst the most prolific in the food and would be more accurately placed further down the ingredient list. At wet weight only the 7th ingredient in the the food, it is likely that the true amount of this ingredient is significantly lower and it is unlikely to make up any significant portion of the food.
Beet fibre (pulp) is a controversial filler. It is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.

Vi Hart is Khan Academy's professional mathemusician. (Yeah, I KNOW, right?) And, this year, she's making the most delightfully nerdy Thanksgiving dinner ever.
It begins with green bean matherole, topped with fried Borromean onion rings. But, besides the fact that it's finished with crispy, delicious hyperbolic geometry, what makes the matherole a matherole?
Vectors. Like the rings, vectors are part of geometry. They've got a magnitude (think: size of the green bean) and they've got a direction (think: which way the green bean is pointing). Most importantly, a single vector can be part of a field of vectors. And that, my friends, is an excellent starting point for a 9 x 13 pan full of beans.

If you've ever wondered what exactly wiped out the dinosaurs and how quickly over 38 hours of painstaking domino stacking can be undone, check out FlippyCat's latest tumbling creation. It's particularly noteworthy this time not just because it's educational, but also because most of the dinosaurs and the giant earth were actually created in 3D.
As usual, the most entertaining part of the video is the time-lapse build at the end revealing just how one goes about stacking dominos horizontally and vertically so that they all come crashing down together. [YouTube via Neatorama via The Daily What]

The victory tastes so sweet

Four years and two months ago, on a lovely Friday morning when Shahriar Hossain
let a ball from Srinath go by the outside off, Bangladesh sailed on her maiden
voyage to the unknown vast of Test cricket. Many balls have since passed by
both off and leg sides and many runs have scrolled down the scoreboard, but
a test win for Bangladesh has never come by.
The fanatic cricket nation missed a heart beat or two at the fourth day of
the third test against Pakistan in Multan two years ago as the win slipped through
their grasp. The lone win still remained elusive when the packed Chittagong
gallery booed their captain once so passionately called Chacha, the fighter.
Forty thousand fans spontaneously erupted in a standing ovation to young Ashraful
when he crafted a chanceless innings, they didn't even mind to batter their
vocal cords at the beats of the drums to cheer the tigers up but the victory
never comes any closer. The taste of a shy test win gets sweeter and sweeter
day by day, match by match for Bangladesh.
Exactly four years and two months after the inaugural test match against India,
Bangladesh takes on Zimbabwe at the MA Aziz Stadium just outskirt of Chittagong
on the final day of the 1st test of the series having the first-ever Test victory
firm and clear in sight. But coming to this 10th day of January took much more
than just four years and two months.
Never before in the history of Test cricket, a nation had to suffer so much
public criticism, humiliation, denigration and degradation. Even the ICC came
hard on its own decision to grant Bangladesh the elite status when it started
to explore a way to demote a nation full of passionate cricket lovers.
Bangladesh, with her first generation of young and inexperienced players, managed
to show credible performance against the likes of ruthless Australia, king Lara's
West Indies, formidable Pakistan and ever challenging England. Unfortunately,
the records of youngest centurion, test hat-trick and even the smallest margin
of defeat failed to enchant the quibbler's heart.
Legends after legends came to steal the limelight to call for the demise of
the 10th test playing nation. Reporters after reporters ran riot in inventing
words and phrases to shower Bangladesh in endless humility. At one point it
seemed like there will be no living well wisher out side of Bangladesh as the
chorus grew louder and louder. It was a sickening experience for a nation so
fond of cricket, who so lovingly and proudly call themselves the 'Tigers'.
Just when there seemed to be no end to this ignominy, the tigers bounced back
to roar against a nation, arguably the second best in the world. The bite was
so fierce that the skipper had no other option but to make an immediate u-turn
to his earlier comments on the so-called n-tier system. The whole world watched
in absolute silence as the tigers ripped through the Indian lineup. Youngest
test centurion to-date, Mohammed Ashraful proved too much for the Indian attack.
Mashrafe, Bashar, Rajin and Aftab showed their new found confidence and class.
India will never see the Tigers the same way again for years to come.
For the Tigers, it was an electrifying event to say the least. They never knew
what they had missed before, the drum beats, the flags, the eruptions, the ultimate
joy of playing in ourown back yard with families and friends around and what
not! Now that they know it, they are hungry as ever and the Zimbabweans could
not have come any sooner.
Rajin continues from where he left off with the Indians. Bashar picks up his
old self without a hitch. Rafique greets the batsman, one after another in the
middle as if he owns the pitch. Mashrafee dances around flexing biceps terrorizing
both batsmen and bowlers. Young Enam took the role of a silent killer. There is no better time for the Tigers to register
their first test win.
And they did so in style, dominating the opponent from the very first minute.
They made the Zimbabwean sweat mercilessly under the blazing sun for almost
two days and with equal cruelty, lured them to bat only to make them surrender
4 wickets at the close of the second day. Zimbabwe managed to avoid the follow-on,
thanks to the heroics from their skipper and his mates, but suffered continuous
tightening and never recovered. The Tigers overwhelmed the hapless opponent
on the final day.
The 10th ranked test playing nation seals its first test victory on the 10th
January, 2005 exactly fours years and two months after gaining the elite status.
Habibul Bashar, Khaled Masud, Nafis Iqbal, Javed Omar, Mohammad Ashraful, Rajin
Saleh, Aftab Ahmed, Mohammad Rafique, Enamul Haque jnr, Tapash Baishya, Mashrafe
Mortaza and Talha Jubair will never be the same when they go on to play again.
They are no more paper tigers as the detractors would say. They have come of
ages and sure will be eager for more wins. A win is a win but this really meant
much to Bangladesh, to the players and to the fans.
The evening is never too short for the celebration. Let the students, professionals,
kids, fans take the control of the streets one more time to celebrate and taste
the victory that finally finds its way to a new home to stay a very long time.

The land of Nike shoes and plastic Christmas trees – and 40 percent of China's factories – has been battered by falling foreign demand. But that doesn't mean Guangdong Province is sitting idle. A pioneer in China's capitalist experiments, it's using the country's worst slowdown in seven years to push ahead with a complete economic makeover.
Like Japan and the Asian tigers before it, China is moving to loosen the grip of high-volume, low-end manufacturing on its economy – and transform itself into a corner-office innovator that can dream up an idea and build it to exacting specifications.
Instead of just assembling iPods, in other words, China wants to invent the next "it" music player.
In an unusual silver lining, the economic crisis may be helping: By shaking out low-profit companies, it's making room for more advanced ones.
The policy is known as "emptying the cage, removing the bird," says Mei Xinyu, a senior researcher at the Ministry of Commerce in Beijing. The slowdown "sped up the process."
China's Silicon Valley?
Last month, the National Development and Reform Commission announced revised plans to transform Guangdong and neighboring Hong Kong and Macau into a "significant innovation center" by 2020.
One hundred R&D labs will be set up over the next three years. By 2012, per-capita output in the region should jump 50 percent from 2007, to 80,000 yuan ($11,700) And by 2020, the study predicts, 30 percent of all industrial output should come from high-tech manufacturing.
"While some traditional competitive industries such as household appliances, textiles and garments, papermaking, and Chinese herbal medicine will be upgraded to increase competence, inefficient energy-consuming sectors will gradually be phased out," the plan states.
Low-end factories will have to relocate to cheaper provinces or countries.
For provincial officials, whose standing rises with Guangdong's economic performance, that's the only way forward. As global recession hit Chinese exports last year, growth in this region dropped to 10.1 percent, from 14.7 percent in 2007.
"Restarting outdated capacities for the sake of growth would just be like drinking poison to quench thirst," Guangdong's Communist Party boss Wang Yang, an advocate of upgrading, wrote in a recent opinion piece.
Still, the economic crisis has forced some compromise. To stem the troubling tide of millions of layoffs, officials decided to prop up the struggling companies they've sought to run into the ground, by reinstating an export tax rebate to help them cut costs.
"They're trying to provide enough benefits to companies so they don't go out of business, while at the same time not backtracking too much," says Arthur Kroeber, head of Dragonomics, a consultancy based in Beijing.
Stimulus measures aim to balance spurring the economy with not sacrificing hi-tech upgrading. The elimination last month of the value-added tax for capital equipment is a case in point, says Mr. Kroeber.
Greener autos
Another example is an auto-industry aid package that halves sales tax on certain cars and subsidizes owners of high-emission vehicles who exchange them for more fuel-efficient, cleaner ones. It also includes a 10 billion yuan ($1.5 billion) fund to promote new technology, including the mass production of electric vehicles.
The Chinese government has deep pockets to help push manufacturing up the value chain, says the Commerce Ministry's Mr. Mei – tapping an array of perks from subsidized infrastructure, tax breaks, investment, and generous government contracts.
Favored companies, like Huawei Technologies, China's leading telecommunications equipmentmaker, got free or low-cost land and utilities, says Kroeber.
It also enjoyed liberal policies on resident permits for workers who had the right skills.
From Beijing's perspective, the returns are worth the investment. The auto stimulus will benefit companies like BYD ("Build Your Dream"), a battery manufacturer-turned-carmaker that has advanced China's green-car prospects and won it prestige as a globally recognized brand.
Already the world's No. 2 batterymaker, it's now the first company to have mass-produced hybrid, plug-in vehicles; it has also made an electric car.
"BYD is a key player in the world market," says Duan Chengwu, an auto industry analyst with Global Insight, based in Shanghai.
The company's international profile soared even higher last September when Warren Buffett bought a 10 percent stake in the company. At the Detroit Auto Show in January, BYD models got space on the main show floor – until then, Chinese carmakers had always been relegated to a basement or foyer.
Needed: workforce upgrade
In addition to putting massive resources into developing the infrastructure of high-tech upgrades, China needs to upgrade its workforce, says Liu Kaiming, head of the Shenzhen-based Institute for Contemporary Observation.
A lavish science park in Dongguan, a nearby factory city, illustrates the mismatch. The expansive campus – complete with apartments, hospital, school, mall, KFC, and a Hyatt hotel, all built around a natural lake and dotted with saplings and flower beds – is meant to impress.
But actually upgrading the "software" of manufacturing takes time. While some A-list companies like Huawei are setting up shop, many of the buildings remain uninhabited.
There are many "empty cages" these days, especially due to the economic crisis, says Mr. Liu. "But they are still waiting for the birds to come."

A FiOS TV Tablet From Motorola?
Motorola has developed an Android tablet and hopes to launch it before the end of the year. This according to people briefed on the company's plans who tell The Financial Times that it could hit stores "as early as this autumn." The device is said to have a 10-inch screen and front and back-facing cameras for video capture and conferencing. And it's rumored to be both thinner and lighter than Apple's iPad. Beyond that, it's main competitive advantage over the iPad is believed to be FiOS TV integration thanks to a deal with Verizon. And that could be key, since Apple hasn't yet managed to roll out that subscription TV service it's been working on.

Amazon: a Solution to the Review Problem?
Perhaps, Amazon can be persuaded to do something positive for authors who provide it with a living?
The company currently has a policy preventing honest reviews from writers giving opinions on the books of other writers they may know. The whole policy is a sledgehammer to crack a walnut. It's intended to prevent dishonest reviews of books by sockpuppets and others who develop aliases so they can produce positive reviews for their own books, or bad reviews for the books of other authors, using another name. Of course, we all want to stop such dishonest activity. But the process also stops honest reviews by honest reviewers.
A possible solution?
Amazon has the capability to develop a system to allow authors to give potential reviewers free copies of their books. The gift could easily be tagged and any subsequent review could then be listed under a heading to declare that it has been provided following the supply of a free book. That way, the reading public would always know that the book was a gift, that the review was by the person to whom the book was gifted, and that no money changed hands for the review. It shouldn't be beyond the capacity of a giant like Amazon to institute such a scheme and it would go a long way toward solving this problem for authors and readers.
Worth a try? What do you think? Any holes in this proposal?
11 Responses to "Amazon: a Solution to the Review Problem?"
Jack. can you explain what you do so some of us can figure out how to do what you do? It is not clear to me…perhaps I am more of a luddite than I imagined!
I read an article recently that stated that Amazon's review policy also resulted in more poor reviews being allowed through than higher ratings for books. As if only the five-star reviews were going to be the fake ones. I guess Amazon hasn't heard of trolls? Also their criteria for deciding if you "know" the author was as thin as being connected through social media. If that's the case none of your Twitter, Facebook or WP followers would be permitted to give a review! Is this your understanding of the new Amazon review policies?
Maybe Stuart.
Or, you could do what I've done for my latest ebook, by providing potential readers with the tried and tested method of old fashioned pre-publication publicity when they use Amazon's 'See Inside' option, by asking some authors you trust, to read it and then write an attention grabber which I've deposited on the second page, with a link back to one of their books via their hyperlinked names, in fair exchange for them obliging me. Plus you can also deposit the attention grabbers as part of the book's description using Amazon's Author Central, minus the hyperlinks or course.
Think about it…

I love the gopak tables with matching titan chairs, they're the perfect height and the colour is lovely. They fold easily and be wheeled away when needed. I would have liked to order the trolley but found it to be very expensive!
The products that was order were of highest quality and we are very pleased with everything.
Stars * :
Brilliant tables, look good, made well, wear well.
Really fantastic quality, simple to use but incredibly sturdy. the bright and colourful tops really make a statement when they are all in use (we ordered 6 complementary but different colours for this reason and they look amazing)
Excellent sturdy table and lovely height for my pre school children
well made,robust product.
very happy with the table
The goods arrived on time and were well packaged. I would certainly buy from Go-Pak again.
Excellent quality, well produced easy to erect
Scratches and marks all over and dirty. Received replacement although slightly better we are convinced we are receiving used samples. Unfortunate and poor service!! I suppose they can't help what the factory send out! Either way as a business cannot afford to keep waiting for replacements that...
Strong sturdy tables will complement our other gopak tables.
Excellent table design, robust construction
A lovely table, we have had this model before.
We needed a strong, portable table. It's good quality and easy to fold legs. Good colour too.
The GoPak tables are much stronger than the Polyfold tables that they are replacing. They are pretty heavy though!
As Above
Go Paks products are always fit for purpose, robust and withstand school life extremely well
