HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. -- Rick Santorum is running for president but his campaign speeches sometimes sound like he's working toward tenure.
The Republican quotes Irish statesmen and French historians, traces word origins and explains Islam to the Christian conservatives who have great sway in South Carolina's Saturday GOP primary. He recommends books, cites academic studies and doesn't shy from footnoting his own unscripted remarks.
At times, Santorum's events more closely resemble a somber college lecture than a raucous political rally -- informative, if not always inspirational....
Often, Santorum commends one of his recent reads, David Hackett Fischer's "Washington Crossing," to his audiences. He mentions Edmund Burke, the 18th Century historian. He quotes Alexis de Tocqueville's study of American democracy....

One of the most common toe issues people face is Hammer Toes. Hammer Toes are typically caused by shoes that are too narrow and tight across the toe box, shoes that have high heels, or even genetics. With hammer toes, one or more of your toes - not the big toe - tends to curl downwards. Hammer toes can also be caused by a muscle or tendon imbalance in the toe, causing it to bend downward. This condition starts out with the toes still being flexible although they appear to be bent (like hammers), but over time, the toes can stiffen so that the person can't bend or straighten them on his own, and the toes will require surgery.
Other problems that hammer toes can cause are inflammation and corns due to rubbing against the shoe. In extreme cases, open sores can ensue.

Leukemia & Lymphoma
Understanding Hodgkin Lymphoma -- Diagnosis and Treatment
In this article
How Do I Know If I Have Hodgkin Lymphoma?
The diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma can only be made by a tissue biopsy -- cutting a tissue sample for examination. If you have an enlarged, painless lymph node that your doctor suspects may be due to Hodgkin lymphoma, tissue will be taken for biopsy or the entire node will be removed. The diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma is sometimes confirmed by the presence of a type of cell called a Reed-Sternberg cell.
If a biopsy reveals that you do have Hodgkin lymphoma, you may need additional tests to determine the extent, or stage, of the disease. Tests include blood tests, chest X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis, and possibly the neck, and PET scans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, bone scans, spinal tap (lumbar puncture), and bone marrow studies are useful under special circumstances.

Important It is possible that the main title of the report Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Read the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia article > >
These tests will reveal the stage of the Hodgkin lymphoma and determine the best type of therapy.
What Are the Stages of Hodgkin Lymphoma?
The prognosis and specific treatment used to treat Hodgkin depends on the stage of the disease or how widespread it is. Here are the stages of the disease:
Stage I. Hodgkin lymphoma is found in only one lymph node area or structure (such as the spleen).
Stage II. Hodgkin lymphomais found in two or more lymph node areas on the same side of the diaphragm (the muscle beneath the lungs that moves up and down to help you breathe).
Stage III. Hodgkinlymphoma is in lymph nodes on both sides of the diaphragm, or the cancer may also have extended to an area or organ adjacent to the lymph node or to the spleen.
Stage IV. Hodgkin lymphoma has spread to one or more organs outside the lymphatic system such as the bone marrow or liver.
Refractory or recurrent Hodgkin lymphoma. Refractory disease is the term used when the disease does not respond to initial therapy. Recurrent disease means that Hodgkin lymphoma has come back after it has been treated. This may occur shortly after treatment or, less commonly, years later.

It's voting day and turnout has been HUGE…at Babeland.
Babeland is giving out free Vibratex Maverick Sleeves and silver bullets to voters and before they'd even opened their doors this morning, people were already lining up down the block.
When the SECB walked in Babeland's door at 11:30, the store had already given out 87 sex toys60 Maverick Sleeves and 27 silver bullets. By the time the SECB left 15 minutes later, Babeland had given out 113. Babeland's New York store has apparently gone through 600 silver bullets and 100 Maverick sleeves in three hours.
"We didn't think it was going to be so popular" says Audrey, Babeland's education coordinator."
The Seattle Babeland store is already out of Maverick sleeves. Audrey says they'll be getting in one more shipment tomorrow but will only be giving out toys while supplies last.
The SECB asked Audrey whether any McCain supporters had come in for free masturbation aids. "If they do, we're out," she joked.
The Palin plug
Babeland was nice enough to provide the SECB with a few toys. If the election goes badly, at least the SECB will have these to keep us warm through the night.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - More than 100 people turned out to pay their
respects to a Marine killed in combat in Afghanistan.
A plane carrying the body of Marine Cpl. Joseph Whitehead flew
Monday into the Mobile Air Center.
The Mobile Press-Register reports that about 100 friends and family members lined the tarmac, while others stood near the airport fence.
A contingent from the U.S. Coast Guard, a Marine honor guard and local police stood at attention as the plane carrying Whitehead's
body came near.
Defense officials said Whitehead was killed in combat in the Helmand province of Afghanistan.
His brother said that Whitehead set off an improvised explosive device.
A visitation will be held Tuesday. A funeral is set for Wednesday at Serenity Funeral Home.

Are Shark Attacks on the Rise?
But Ritter prefers to talk about shark "accidents" -- not attacks. Emergency physician Richard Nateman, MD, agrees.
"Humans are not really what [sharks] want. When they get a human, that's a mistake," he tells WebMD. They do want fish, so the best strategy for avoiding a shark attack is not looking like a fish, he explains.
Sharks usually won't attack someone who's standing or in a vertical position. "They want to attack horizontal things because they know fish are horizontal," he says. Nateman is CEO of South Florida Emergency Physicians at Baptist Hospital in Miami and has seen about a dozen shark victims during his years at the hospital.
Even though the risk of attack is low, you may still want to take steps to further limit that risk. Nateman and Ritter offer the following tips:
Swim where lifeguards can see you.
Swim where other people are around.
Know how to do CPR -- that's a good idea for many reasons.
Avoid swimming during dusk and dawn. This is when sharks have the best vision and are looking for food.
Avoid murky waters, harbor entrances, channels, and steep drop-offs. "Murky water is attractive to sharks because it has more nutrients," Ritter explains. "Steep drop-offs or anything that increases the current has more available food ... so that brings in more sharks."
If you do encounter a shark, what should you do?
Stay calm. "Sharks ... can sense your speeded-up heart rate," says Ritter.
If the shark has seen you, never ever swim away from it. Stay still.
Even if they bump into you, do not move. That's how they check you out.
Stay vertical.
Don't struggle and splash. You don't want to look like a struggling fish.
If a group of people see a shark close by, they shouldn't huddle together. Instead, try to stay at least a body length away from the next person.
Thank you for submitting your response.
Good to Know is a new feature that allows members of the community to answer questions from WebMD experts, doctors, staff, and other community members. We're testing this new feature and we'd like your feedback.

Hosted monitoring systems review: for easy to use monitoring without extra hassle.
Below is the list of the market key players (in the alphabetical order):
- AppFirst
- NewRelic
- ScoutApp
- ServerDensity
- 10bees
This company is focused on providing with a comprehensive server monitoring and analysis tool.
They provide an agent (called 'collector'), installing a kernel module to get as much information about the processes as possible. Linux, FreeBSD, Windows and Solaris support is available. They also support connecting other data sources like 'statsd'.
The company is heavily working on the customized dashboard and has a lot of the technology behind the service.
Mobile app was not found, but it doesn't seem to be that much needed. The solution comes with some alarms pre-defined and enabled by default. In case of any problems, an operating system status snapshot, with the top resources consuming process, is sent it to you via e-mail, which is quite handy.
Price: $15 or $25 per server per month, depending on the number of monitored servers.
Born as a programmer's profiling and an application internal behaviour measurement tool, it was extended to support Linux, SmartOS and Windows operating systems monitoring.
The system has a powerful dashboard with the graphs and a correlations analysis. The installation procedure is a bit complicated (as opposed to the AppFirst and 10bees approach), but once installed, it's managed by OS' packaging system.
Mobile app is available, but there are no default alarming settings. The idea is that you have a single place to hold and work with your data — would it be a server, application or anything else.
Price: for the operating systems supported — it's free.
A Ruby based agent and server parts of the product enable Linux and a limited MacOS X and Solaris monitoring.
For me it seems to be too much Ruby oriented, the dashboard functionality looks to be quite limited. After adding the monitoring agent to the cron manually, my server disk was overflowed with the logs, which did not make me happier either.
Price: $10 (with 5 minutes time resolution delay) or $15 per server per month.
Server Density
A Python based product in both — agent and server parts. The system provides with a complete monitoring for Linux and Windows, and with a very limited FreeBSD and MacOS X support.
Originally started as a server monitoring service, it is getting more features with each release, moving to the direction of New Relic. You can also send your data from your apps via the API, and monitor your site via the http ping tool and the system even has some basic cloud based server management.
For me the dashboard did not seem good enough for the purpose of servers monitoring, but it is getting more and more flexible, so that you can adapt it according to your needs.
The other drawback is monitoring agent and it's requirements — ServerDensity's Python based agent is constantly a reason for the AppFirst monitoring to throw an alarm, saying that Python took all my micro EC2 instance CPU time. Windows version of the agent is .NET based and requires few hundred megabytes to run.
There is a nicely looking mobile app, with an iOS support introduced recently.
Price: $10 per server per month (comes with 1 web check as well).
A new player on the hosted system monitoring market, started a while ago and recently restarted with a new platform and solutions on the background.
10bees solution doesn't have that much on the board yet, but it's the only hosted monitoring system providing with a full support for *BSD world — FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD are supported, alongside with Linux, Windows and MacOS X.
The dashboard is straight forward, but a bit simplified, in comparison to the other players. The servers are represented like in a rack. History perspective is currently limited to one hour and no alarming feature as of now.
The agent is mostly written on Perl.
Price: free.
If your server resources are limited (in terms of CPU and memory) — consider using AppFirst or 10bees; if you don't really care about the memory and CPU and Linux is your primary platform — then almost all of the solutions will work for you.
For support of the wide range of the operating systems, note AppFirst and 10bees solutions. If you need NetBSD or OpenBSD support — 10bees is your only choice.
In case you are a developer and more focused on the languages / development platforms, and don't care that much on the operating system support — NewRelic or ServerDensity looks the best choice.
And if you search for a perfect one-suits-all blender for all kind of needs — NewRelic seems to be an absolute winner here, with an option to be integrated with almost anything, ready to pick up templates and a platforms support.

Aside from being a heinous malapropism, Shemale Bisexuals offers little to justify its misaligned title.
The opening scene features a g, b, t three-way that implies bisexuality on somebody's part; otherwise the remaining encounters all feature tranny, guy hookups of minor passion.
Videography is static and uninspired; with too many angles that act as camouflage for spongy junk. True enough, two of 'em do manage to jack wood and shoot batter bullets post-cornhole sessions.
As imported fare, the PAL-to-NTSC transfer renders all of the physical motion in a herky-jerky fashion. The title's biggest advantage, we suppose, it that these tricky-dicked performers maintain decent oral skills and are passable in dim light.

The owner of an adult pitbull has been charged after police
say the dog attacked and bit his 3-year-old nephew on the
face resulting in a 6cm gash under the boy's right eye.
Arron James Kohu, 41, who appeared in Tauranga Community
Magistrates' Court today, faces a charge of being the owner
of a dog which causes injury, which has a maximum sentence of
three years imprisonment.
Police say the dog, which was tied up on a long chain,
attacked the boy at Kohu's Waikari Rd address on March 27
while the toddler was playing near the animal on the back
The Hastings boy, who was visiting the property at the time,
was treated at Tauranga Hospital.
The dog was seized and remains in the dog pound pending the
outcome of the court case.
Through a duty lawyer Kohu sought interim name suppression
until his next court appearance on the basis that publication
of his name and the details of the charge would have a
serious impact on his sick mother who lives with him.
Police opposed the application.
Community Magistrate Sherida Cooper refused the suppression
request saying that any upset and embarrassment was a natural
consequences of any court appearance.
Kohu was remanded at large to obtain legal aid and further
legal advice.
His next court appearance is in Tauranga District Court on
May 16 when he is expected to enter a plea to the charge.

Unless DOT grants a weather-related extension, studded tires are only legal in Washington from Nov. 1 to March 31. No extension is planned.
Crews will keep an eye on forecasts, especially at higher elevations, and will be ready to treat and clear roadways if wintry weather returns.
Under state law, driving with studded tires after March 31 is a traffic infraction and could result in a $124 ticket.

Life Drowning for Dollars (Mudede Parody)
posted by June 8 at 11:05 AMon
As Google's mission statement says, "Don't be evil", but we must quantify the search for good in the study of evil. For Evil itself is merely Live backwards, and the quest to both end and begin Life acts as a bookend on our quotidian musings.
In Africa, bathing the dead is a religious ritual accompanying death, and with large numbers of orphan children left to the ravages of continent-wide diseases that are killing off most of the parents, the connection between income and a child's life becomes clearer.
Perhaps that is why a Seattle father tried to drown his child for insurance money. For on Wednesday he was charged with exactly that by Seattle police, themselves frequent arbiters and observers of life and death.
As the firefighters pulled three-year old Ashley McLellan from the pool in 2003, the unreal dichotomy of life and death was exposed in the figure of her father, who stood there calmly, unscathed by water's clean touch, not asking if she would live.
Joel Zellmer perhaps was going back to this primal state, and his history of dating single mothers, convincing them to get insurance on, and then harming their children, through trials of fire and water, showed his struggles with parenthood and the demand for money. This included burning the hands of one child (fire), holding a hot cup to the lips of another so that it blistered her lips (fire and air, the very breath of life, transfused through the cup (earth) in liquid form (water)).
King County Sheriff's Department will not be pursuing charges in the other cases which happened as far back as 1990.
For little Ashley, Zellmer told emergency workers a tale, suitable for those sitting around a fire between the huts of a tribe in Africa: While her mother worked, Ashley opened a sliding glass door to a deck in order to eat a cake provided by her father, then descended as if unto Hades by a flight of stairs, there to cleanse her hands in the Stygian depths in an unlit, uncovered pool. All this while the temperature approached that of the underworld, 39 degrees, and for a girl with a fear of the dark. For is not the transition to death that of a child in fear?

ST. AUGUSTINE BEACH -- Within minutes of turning onto the Ocean Trace ramp to start his patrol on the beach, St. Johns County Deputy Tony Matuse spotted a man sunbathing with an open bottle of beer wedged in the sand by his side.
"We're not out here to be mean people," Matuse said, then stepped out of his patrol car to issue the man a warning for violating the county ordinance banning alcohol on the beach. "We just want a safe environment."
The man told Matuse he would take the cooler of beer back to the place where he was staying. He put the open beer back in the cooler, and walked toward his car.
"We got the glass off the beach," Matuse said as the man carried away the cooler. "I certainly don't want my son or his friends stepping on broken glass."
On Monday, Matuse was assigned from Surf Drive to the Matanzas Avenue ramp as part of beach patrol. He said he takes on the role about once a week throughout the summer, driving up and down the coastline, mostly on all-terrain vehicles, making sure people are driving safe and obeying the rules.
Sgt. George Clark is the coordinator for beach patrol. His team of three deputies and three public service assistants (PSAs) work the beaches every weekday, with an additional deputy assigned on the weekends. They cover about 42 miles of beaches, from St. Augustine Beach south to Marineland and from Vilano Beach north to the Duval County line.
"We try to take a proactive stance instead of a reactive stance," he said.
Clark said between 200 and 250 warnings for alcohol violations have been given out so far this year and 25 fines for alcohol have been levied. The fine is $43 if paid within seven days and $58 if paid within 15, he said.
Clark said the culture of the beach has changed a bit this year. More pedestrians are coming from the oceanfront condos, whereas beachgoers of the past traditionally came in cars. But on holiday weekends, the cars still roll in, he said.
Clark said there were cars lined from St. Augustine Beach to two miles south of the Crescent Beach ramp on the Fourth of July weekend. The cars were only a couple of feet from each other all the way down, "just enough to open their doors," Clark said.
The role of the deputies and PSAs is to enforce traffic rules, laws and assist when they are needed in an emergency, Clark said.
There are often calls for missing kids, he said. The worst this year came on a Sunday afternoon about three weeks ago when a 7-year-old boy wandered four miles away from his family. He strayed from Mary Street to the Fort Matanzas ramp. "He was looking for momma," Clark said.
The St. Johns County helicopter was already in the air, so a search was called. Deputies soon found the boy after a description was called over the radio.
Most kids that go missing are found within a half-mile of where they were last seen, Clark said. Sometimes they just wander back to the condo where they are staying as their parents searched the beach.
Safety on the beach calls for "almost a zero tolerance," for speeding, Clark said. He said the posted speed limit is 10 mph at the beach, but a deputy has stopped a driver for going 27 mph so far this year.
David Williams, aquatic superintendent for St. Johns County, recalled the tragedy of two 16-year-old girls from Pennsylvania getting run over by a man driving recklessly on the beach just north of the main ramp at Anastasia State Park. The two girls were laying in the sun when the man ran over them in the summer of 2000.
"I believe one is still in a coma, and the other, although out of the hospital and living her life, I'm sure has some complications or lasting effects from it," Williams said.
Clark said there have been about 25 tickets issued so far this year for not obeying traffic laws. He said many of the 16 arrests so far this year have also been for traffic infractions.
But this year has been slower than most, he added. There have been a few "I'm bigger and better than you," arguments, but no fights. "That tells me it's a slower year than last year," he said.
The beach patrol assists St. Augustine Beach Police with the patrol of the city beaches by assigning a PSA to help with patrol.
Officer Joe Beaudoin said the police department faces mostly the same type of issues as the beach patrol. Except for a rare burglary to a car parked at the beach, he and the other officers on patrol are looking for alcohol, people speeding and "spinning donuts" in the sand with their cars.
Williams said with an estimated 26,000 beachgoers heading to the beach each weekend day, and about 250,000 vehicles driving on the beach throughout the year, beach patrol is doing its job well. There is an average of only 2.3 accidents per year, and that is usually vehicle versus vehicle, he said.
"The beach is kind of like running a small city," he said. "By in large, we do a pretty darn good job."

Youth is cited by police after chase
BARRE Police say a 16-year-old has been issued a citation in connection with a police chase that ended in a crash in Barre Wednesday morning.
The individual, whose name has not been released by police, has been cited for attempting to elude, careless and negligent operation and aggravated assault on a police officer.
According to police, there was a report of some males in a white vehicle breaking into cars on Bugbee Avenue and Short Street. Upon arrival, police located a white Ford Escape with three males inside at the intersection of Maple Street and Seminary Street, and after the vehicle was pulled over, it fled the scene as police approached.
A pursuit ensued and the vehicle crashed near Boynton Street where the three males fled on foot. Police say a cellphone and wallet were found in the vehicle and from those items they were able to identify the individuals involved and contacted their parents.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON Rutland Post 31 pitcher Andy Kenosh called it mojo.

Some people are all about the stuffing. Some can't do without the mashed potatoes. And the debate over marshmallows with the sweet potatoes can stoke family feuds spanning decades. But at the end of the day, Thanksgiving is all about the bird.
Disney princesses reimagined as hot dogs and drunken rants by name-brand chefs are de rigueur for quarterly food magazine Lucky Peach.
When Samuel Kim was growing up, his mother often spiked the family's white rice with amaranth, barley, quinoa and other whole grains to boost its nutritional value.
When chef Hooni Kim opened his Korean-inspired restaurant Danji in New York City nearly five years ago, he made sure to couch the cuisine's bold, funky flavors in familiar items: sliders filled with the marinated beef called "bulgogi," for example, and chicken wings glazed with garlic, honey and sesame seeds.
"I wanted to deliver the flavors in a non-exotic way," says Kim, who was born in Korea and moved to the U.S. when he was 10. "This was the way to get the non-Korean eaters in to try these flavors. That was my one and only chance to win them over."
A few years ago, former video game executive Kevin Yu was cooking for a girlfriend on Valentine's Day when he discovered he'd forgotten the mushrooms for the mushroom soup. But that was just the start.
When it comes to wrangling the Thanksgiving meal onto the table, one motto gets it right: Be prepared.
Let's face it, our national day of feasting features multiple dishes, all of which require different cooking times, temperatures and techniques.
Spring is back and so are farmers markets. And that means a whole new chance to make friends with strange and unusual vegetables. Or to rehabilitate some old familiars.
Nelson Cho isn't just Chinese-American. He's Chinese-Cuban-Peruvian-American. Which means he grew up on the shredded beef dish ropa vieja, the fried chicken called chicharrones de pollo, and other Cuban specialties.
Strategic splurging can keep your budget - and your time - under control
A roaring grill and an icy brew are almost as integral to July Fourth as fireworks. But today's burgers and beers affairs bear little resemblance to the buffet served during our nation's first Independence Day.

Arts In Defense of a Certain Rabbit Who's Running Scared
It's not "in" to say this, especially post Hitchens' Atlantic piece, but I like John Updike. I'm glad that he continues to exist. One of my friends raises an imaginary gun to her temple whenever The New Yorker publishes a new story by him. Former Stranger staffer Nate Lippens used to say: "Too male, too pale, to stale, too Yale," which still makes me laugh. Paul Constant has a review of Updike's Terrorist in The Stranger that comes out in a couple days, and I don't want to give anything away, but the sub-headline of the review is: "Newsflash: John Updike Is Not 'With It.'"
What inspires me to raise an imaginary gun to my temple, more often than not, is the Sunday New York Times Book Review, which was so crashingly boring this week I can't bring myself to revisit it. The only thing I read to the end? On the last page, an essay by Updike commenting on that article by Kevin Kelly on the cover of the New York Times Magazine a couple weeks agothe one about the end of physical books as we know them. That article was annoying, especially the part whereand Updike takes Kelly to task for thisKelly describes that, once all books ever written by anyone are owned by everyone on the universal library of all written knowledge or whatever, copies of books are no longer going to be how writers make money. Writers will instead make money on "performances, access to the creator, personalization…" This is presented as an exciting development: more fetishization of the writer as opposed to the writing. Sounds like a goddamn nightmare. Kelly is the "senior maverick" for Wired magazine, and I bet he watches a lot of TV.
Incidentally, the Updike piece was adapted from a talk he gave at BookExpo America a couple weeks ago (a bookseller convention that Paul Constant ate pâté at).
And here's a link for anyone who wants a lot more information about Updike's career than you probably need.
UPDATE: I just foundon that abovelinked Updike page (actually, a sub-page called What's New in Updikiana) a link to this rebuttal to John Updike on Time magazine's website. Now, I loves me some Sean Wilsey, and he makes a lot of good points and a couple of choice digs (Updike is "a writer who hasn't actually been edited for decades"), but Sean, what about the whole making-money issue? How do you feel about selling personal access to yourself as your only way of making a living? (This particular issue is complicated by you, Sean, since your book is a memoirwhich is, you know, a way of selling to other people access to yourself.)

Martin Brudnizki Designs His Perfect Weekend
The Swedish interior designer talks to The Wall Street Journal Europe about how he starts his weekend.
Martin Brudnizki has a chic collection of high-profile interiors under his belt, including the Soho Beach House in Miami, and the St. Pancras Grand and the Club at the Ivy in London. He refers to his style as Minimalism Deluxe. "Minimalism stands for precision in detail, space and the design concept," the 44-year-old explains. "Deluxe stands for quality of materials and furnishings."
Mr. Brudinzki, a former model, left Sweden for London in 1990 to study interior architecture and design at the American University. After graduating in 1993, he worked as an apprentice to design luminaries Philip Michael Wolfson and David Gill. Later, he branched out on his own, and in 2000, founded his eponymous design studio, growing the company from two to 30 employees.
Today, he is busy with three London projects: refurbishing Le Caprice restaurant, redesigning the Rib Room, set to re-open Oct. 19, and preparing for the Nov. 4 launch of steakhouse 34.
On the weekends, though, the Stockholm native tries to keep things unstructured and low-key, jogging in the park, catching a gallery exhibition or just perusing his favorite vintage shops.
"Even when I travel, I always try to be back for the weekend," Mr. Brudnizki says. "I try to keep a varied social life because otherwise it gets a bit boring. I try not to plan too much in London because the rest of the week is so mapped out."
How do you unwind on Friday night?
I usually quite like not to do anything. It's nice to come home after a hard week and relax. I might have something to eat with a friend. We usually go to a local pub…something very informal. Then after that, I go home, read a book and then go to bed. It's a nice finish to a week. Occasionally I will go to a dinner party, but what I would usually prefer is to have that pause.
What's Saturday morning like?
I usually get up and go for a run to a park called Eel Brooke Common around the corner from where I live. Then I go back home, cook myself an omelet with red pepper, feta cheese and some tomato for breakfast. I then read the papers.
What else is on the agenda?
I always do a bit of food shopping, then after that there's lunch with friends. Depending on the weekend, we might go to a pub called the Surprise, which is in Chelsea, where I live. It's very nice pub—informal and local. I quite like that. It's a very British thing.
How do you spend the afternoon?
I either go to the Tate or to see a new exhibition somewhere. Last month, I went to see a Lucian Freud retrospective at Tate Britain. I had never been to an exhibition that showed so much of his work and I really wanted to see it.... Last week, I went to the Little Black Gallery to see Terry O'Neil's "It Girls and Boys." There's a photo of Brigitte Bardot with a cigar in her mouth, which is very old school. It shows glamour and beauty.
Who do you enjoy spending your weekends with?
With my longtime friends Suzanne Trocmé, who is a curator, an author and furniture designer, and her husband Paul Verburg, a great designer and artiste. I spend a lot of the time with them. We have coffee or tea or a more formal dinner. They have four sons and I am godfather of two of them. I met them 18 years ago.
If you had more free time, what else would you like doing?
I would like to visit East London more because there is always so much going on. It's an interesting part of London, rough around the edges yet chic. It has a completely different atmosphere from living in Chelsea.
There's a store, Hostem, where they have very interesting clothes. I also like to visit a few other stores there. One of them is MacBlack & Vine, which sells vintage furniture. On 2 Columbia Road, there's an antique shop by the same name that's quite interesting. They sell a lot of 20th-century furniture. And there's another furniture store called Unto This Last and they do Modernist furniture.
I enjoy looking at furniture—chairs, tables, screens, stools. This is part of me and what I do. They help me understand trends and see where things are going.
—Mr. Brudnizki was speaking with Javier Espinoza.

Vulnerability in GNU "tar"
Linux distributor Red Hat has discovered a vulnerability in the GNU "tar" program that could allow attackers to overwrite files.
Red Hat describes the vulnerability as a directory traversal error, stating that attackers could use manipulated archvies to exploit the bug. "../" directory entries give the attacker the ability to overwrite files for which the executing user has write permissions. The security hole is due to faulty "contains_dot_dot()" function in the "names.c" file. Both Red Hat and the Secunia security service have classified the vulnerability as moderate.
The error affects GNU tar version 1.18 and older. An update and a patch by Red Hat are already available. Other distributions can be expected to follow suit. Users are advised to update their systems.

"This was spray-painted along a walkway at North Carolina State University in Raleigh called the Free Expression Tunnel," writes Slog tipper Cassidy, "which is a space where students (or anyone else) are permitted to graffiti, chalk, paint, etc. When I walked by and took the picture this morning at about 10am, several university facilities officials were there, presumably discussing what they were going to do to cover it up. For us NC natives celebrating our new senator, governor and blue-state status, it was a reminder that we have a long, long way to go."

JERUSALEM, Israel -- Israel's new school year begins Tuesday with nearly 2.13 million students, roughly a quarter of the total population and an increase of 60,000 students from last year. About 150,000 students are starting school for the first time this year.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Education Minister Shai Piron were on hand in the coastal city of Netanya to greet the children.
Piron expressed what many Israelis feel: excitement "…that more than 2 million students and tens of thousands of teachers" are starting school today.
Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat and MK Tzipi Hotovely, along with President Shimon Peres, welcomed returning students in the nation's capital.
On Independence Day 2013, the Central Bureau of Statistics listed Israel's population as 8,018,000, a tenfold increase since the establishment of the modern nation-state in 1948.
Of that figure, 6,042,000, or 75 percent, are Jews; 1,658,000, or 20.7 percent, are Arabs, both Christian and Muslim. And an estimated 4 percent of Israelis, 318,000, are non-Arab Christians.

Ex-Saints coach deserves `Mora' respect
Published: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 at 11:00 p.m.
Around the NFL he was known for his postgame meltdowns with the media and his teams' miserable meltdowns with opposing teams in the playoffs (0-6 in six tries).
But amidst what has become the normal weekly shootout victory for the New Orleans Saints Sunday in the Superdome, former New Orleans and Indianapolis coach Jim Mora was inducted in the Saints Hall of Fame.
And rightly so, that's no diddly-poo.
All fun aside, Mora, and the late Jim Finks, were responsible for bringing New Orleans from the doldrums of the NFL to respectability.
Mora got his pro coaching start in the USFL with the Philadelphia Stars in the early 1980s and went on to win two championships, before being hired by Finks in 1986.
After a 7-9 year, Mora led the Saints to their first playoff appearance with a 12-3 record in 1987, but many remember it as the year he made his coulda, woulda, shoula speech after New Orleans fell in a key game to the 49ers, who would win the division.
Despite a 44-10 first-round playoff loss to the Vikings, Mora was named NFL Coach of the Year and Finks NFL Executive of the Year.
The Saints finished 10-6 in 1988 and 9-7 in 1989, but didn't see the light of the playoffs again until an 8-8 season in 1990 led to a 16-6 NFC Wild Card loss to the Bears.
Mora showed resilience and came back to help New Orleans to its first-ever division crown in 1991 after posting an 11-5 mark, but again the Saints fell in the first round.
Mora's final postseason with the Saints came in 1993 after the Eagles scored 26 fourth-quarter points to steal a 36-20 NFC Wild Card victory.
The Saints then began their move south and Mora reached the bottom on Oct. 21, 1996. Mora, the longest-tenured head coach in major professional sports at the time, resigned after a loss to the Panthers and 10-plus years in New Orleans.
Mora, who has been known to have the utmost respect of his players, won 93 games in New Orleans.
In the 19 years before Mora, the franchise won a total of 83 contests.
In 1998, Mora was hired by the Colts and went 3-13. But the next season, the Colts finished 13-3 and won their division.
But the playoffs jinx would catch up to Mora as the Colts would not only lose in the first round in 1999, but would also fall in the AFC Wild Card game of 2000.
After the final game of 2001 in which the Colts finished 6-10, a reporter asked Mora, who was later replaced by Tony Dungy, if he should be the coach of the Colts in 2002.
"I will not quit, I want to coach here," Mora said after punching a wall with tears in his eyes. "I should be the coach here."
Some called it just another one of Mora's post-game meltdowns, but what Mora was doing was displaying the same fire and passion for the game that finally helped make New Orleans a winner and him a successful NFL coach -- even though he never won a playoff game.

Could be bad enough to kill
Published: Friday, April 2, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 1, 2010 at 4:53 p.m.
To The Editor: On March 21 proud Nancy Pelosi and our President laid a huge, stinking egg. Many Americans and some elected officials had shouted, "There's a bad odor here. Don't lay this egg, it's dangerous." The warnings were ignored; the pungent bill was exalted and passed.
The Democrats will deny there is a stink. They will say the odoriferous facts will soon go away. And later they will blame it on someone else. But the stench is from their own egg, and we know it. Our entire country must breathe it in because there's nowhere else to go. So the only question now is, "Will it kill us?"
Our prosperous country seems incapable of recognizing its real wealth. No doubt, God ordained and gave our country special blessings. He's a jealous God and can remove us from the place He's put us in (Psalms 118:8-9 and Revelation 2:4-5).
We need to be giving thanks and getting the priorities of our life in order. How many of us knew this bill was wrong but weren't able to do anything about it? Let's stand together and fight.

'Banana Republic' In North Carolina: GOP Committee Chair 'Approves' Bill To Gut Clean Energy Without Counting Votes
The ALEC-sponsored bill to gut North Carolina's clean energy standard failed last week in one House committee. But as the Charlotte Observer reports, last night it passed a Senate committee over shouted objections to do something most people take for granted in a democracy — counting votes to see which side has more.
Over the objections of Democratic lawmakers, a Senate committee approved legislation Wednesday to end the state's 6-year-old renewable energy program.
Opponents of the bill shouted "No!" when voting to show their frustration at Republican Chairman Bill Rabon's refusal to count votes with a show of hands. In what was clearly a razor-thin margin, both sides said they would have won if the votes had been counted.
"North Carolina is not a banana republic," Democratic Sen. Josh Stein of Raleigh, one of the no votes, said after the meeting. "That was no way to run a proceeding."
It was also evident that the Republicans are split on the legislation that would end a state policy of requiring electric utilities to buy green electricity from solar farms and other renewable generators.
At least a half-dozen Republicans voted with Democrats against the controversial bill Wednesday.
The Senate bill would keep the utilities' clean energy requirement at a laughable 3 percent and get rid of the mandate entirely by 2023. Utilities support the standard: Duke Energy has found that the clean energy promoted by the standard helps with peak load, is reliable, and makes a profit. North Carolina agriculture showed up to testify in favor of the standard, from farmers to the Pork Council. (Pork farmers would rather use the methane from swine waste lagoons to make energy instead of letting it waft into the atmosphere.)
Who opposed it? Mostly radical conservative groups like the Heartland Institute, the Koch Brothers, ALEC, Art Pope, the American Conservative Union, Americans for Tax Reform, and their friends in the North Carolina State Legislature.
Senate Finance Committee Chair Bill Rabon heard the loud nays (consisting of at least six Republicans voting with Democrats) and without allowing a show of hands to count, approved the legislation out of committee. This is democracy in action in North Carolina:
(Video: NC Policy Watch)
This Senate bill moves to the Commerce Committee for a vote and would have to pass there as well as before the full Senate by May 16 to get to the House in time to pass this legislative session.
If it gets there the House version's sponsor, ALEC member Mike Hager, will have to bring his version back before his Public Utilities and Energy Committee for a re-vote after his bill failed there last week. Hager was in the Senate committee room, talking with staff as this "vote" took place.
Gutting laws that have wide support and economically benefit the whole state becomes easier when you can do it just because you say so, and don't have to worry about counting votes.

Voice votes should be illegal.
Let's get mobilized against these pro-ALEC sons of bitches anti-democratic cretins , like the Koch brothers, who would rather be left alone to despoil the whole planet then pay their fair share in taxes. http://www.350.org
This is very typical Republican MO. Hate the planet suppress the votes.
The Republicans should not be allowed for one minute to say they want to maintain or create jobs. This clean energy bill has created so many jobs in North Carolina and promised to create more…(All those handsome guys on the roof tops)…They prefer the Keystone XL which creates 35 temporary seasonal positions
And you call President Obama "Socialist"? Excuse me, but what happen to the democratic process? I know, all you GOP have become more like Dictators than Constitutionalist Lawmakers.
I don't think we should identify the source of the state bills to repeal RPS laws as "radical conservative groups," anymore than we should call a dog a tail, when it is fundamentally about the dog. It is no coincidence that these repeal laws pop up just at the same time as wind passes the crossover point with fossil generation in many places and solar in some places. It's the coal companies. It's the oil companies. It's the gas companies. That's the dog. ALEC and the others are just the tail.
Contraire following this past election where the GOP won both houses and the governorship the Banana Republic of North Carolina is regressing in all its glory.
We have many examples of Republican opposition to democracy. From attempts to make it harder for citizens to cast votes to attempts to halt voting for Senator and have them appointed. Republicans are not defenders of democracy or the Constitution. They favor a dictatorship of the few over the majority, authoritarian rule, and opposition to public education.
That is one way Romney could have won the election without his billionaire friends spending all the money just don't count the votes. Even former Justice Sandra Day O'Connor admitted the High Court voted political and not Justicial when appointing George W. Bush President in the fixed Chad Florida mess. State by State we are losing Democracy to elected idiots who are paid.
NC made sea level rise illegal
I think that was a good idea
That's the Republican way – if you can't win by persuasion, cheat.
And this disgusting, thuggish behavior will continue exactly as long as voters let them get away with it. When voters start paying attention and punishing politicians at the ballot box for such actions it will stop faster than you can say the Pledge of Allegiance.
A John Boehner in the making. The only vote that counts is that of the Chairman. Power corrupts absolutely.
Republicans are traitors. They are fascists waiting to take over our country and turn it into a right wing dictatorship.
I think it's called fascism.
As expected, they just grow nastier and nastier, and they have an infinite capacity for evil. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
It's the Supreme Court 'deciding' that the votes should not be counted in Florida, all over again. At least in Taiwan, Ukraine or South Korea there would have been a nice punch-up as the putsch was executed.
So, you are saying it will never end?
Yeah but they're 'uncivilized', ME
Correction (as shown in the name-plates this is actually Senator Bob Rucho, not Bill Rabon (they are co-chairs of that committee) who is doing the dirty deed.
He's the SOB who railroaded through NC's fracking bill last year, in a variety of committees, though not responsible for it's final passage in the NC House with one accidental yes vote which was not allowed reversed even though it happens and usually is fixed right away.
Truly disgusting behavior. What is interesting is that the pork industry (factory farm, ugh) used to be heavy hitters in Raleigh and could write their own bills virtually. I guess they didn't donate enough this cycle or they were subject to a Jack Abramoff type scam.
Rule by almost decree, this is how bought and paid for Repubs rule, no vote counts… UnAmerican to the Nth degree.
ALEC vs Big Oil is a distinction without a difference.
The Republicans have fascists in all but name.
Even neoCons like Karl Rove, used fascist marketing techniques for Bush's elections. Seems these techniques have not worked lately. People are finally finally wising up

Released: Aug 01st, 2005
Running Time: 87
Director: Chi Chi LaRue
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Cast: Manuel Ferrara, Tawny Roberts, Alexia Malone, Tommy Gunn, Melissa Lauren, Marco Duato, Mick Blue, Jack Lawrence, Katie Morgan, Eric Masterson, TJ Hart
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Vivid fans will go for it.
Follow blond stunner Tawny Roberts as she compares and contrasts contemporary aspects of culture and mores with those of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Tawny truly digs those "screen sirens," but Roberts does things onscreen that Gloria Swanson never came close to, like taking Tommy Gunn's load on her chest, for example.
Tawny tells us how distasteful she finds men "screaming into microphones and using women as disposable tissues," and to prove it, we get to see a couple rock chicks get serviced by two presumably disposable studs, Ferrara and Blue.
It's all pretty tame, condomed stuff, but listening to Roberts lisp and slur through the narration is somewhat amusing.

(Jemima Tiller, Chemistry World, December, 2009)
"It was refreshing to peruse a lighter, brighter food-related book, when the refined 'Sushi: food for the eye, the body & soul' landed on my doorstep. … Making it all the more engaging, the book was written by a Danish professor of biophysics with a longstanding interest in gastronomy and its scientific basis." (VittlesVamp, December, 2009)
"It is very comprehensive, starting with the philosophy behind sushi, moving through the science of sushi and ending on the practicalities of preparing sushi. … The book is also aesthetically pleasing, with plenty of excellent photos and diagrams. … Overall, this was a very informative and fairly comprehensive book on sushi and Japanese cuisine.

"If you have ever wanted to know everything about sushi … then this is the book you've been waiting for. … a beautiful book that would sit comfortably on a coffee table, on a shelf of textbooks at a culinary arts academy, or in the kitchen. … The origins and cultural history of sushi are examined, as well as a thorough guide to all the ingredients and tools used in sushi preparation." (EAT, January, 2010)
"Of all the books out there written in English about sushi, for me this one by Ole Mouritsen is possibly the most interesting. … Not only does this book explore the basic, key ingredients for sushi … it discusses a far wider range of ingredients and Japanese condiments. … The result – it answers many of the unanswered questions about sushi … . the illustrations and photographs used are of excellent quality and provide an added insight into the variety of ingredients used to make sushi."

After consuming this work, readers themselves should be given a PhD in sushi." (Yukari Sakamoto, Metropolis, April, 2010)
"Sushi – Food for the eye, the body & the soul is the quintessential book on the science of sushi, how it contributes to wellness, and why people have such passion for sushi. … The book is a jewel for sushi lovers everywhere. … Still, for all the eye-popping presentation and first class printing, the heart of the book is in the text. … The writing is richly presented … . Descriptions can be quite technical yet keep an average reader like me enthralled." (Afar, Chowhound, May, 2010)

construct great sushi - from traditional to modern - I was extremely impressed by this wonderful book. It is clear that serious research, as well as much imagination, went into every page. It has become my new `go-to' bible when I need a shot of inspiration."
Ken Oringer, internationally renowned and award-winning chef
Clio Restaurant, Uni Sashimi Bar, Boston
"Congratulations on writing such an aesthetically beautiful, informative and inspiring book. ... I shall not hesitate to recommend your book to those colleagues, who like me, are fascinated by Sushi and who will surely be captivated, like me, turning every page."
Dr. Ian C. Forster, April, 2011
"Ole Mouritsen's engrossing book focuses on sushi in its minutest details, but zooms out for extended looks at everything from the tea ceremony and Japanese aesthetics to the biology of nutrition and perception and the origins of life. It's a treatise to consult for its wealth of practical information, and to browse in for the diverting thoughts of an omnivorous mind."
Harold McGee, author of On Food and Cooking. The Science and Lore of the Kitchen
"With the passion of a connoisseur, the insight of a scientist, and the curiosity of a writer, Ole Mouritsen offers this exquisite meditation on sushi, including its meaning, the art of preparation, eating, and serving it, the health benefits it imparts, and its role in ancient and contemporary Japan"

Barclays Announces Reorganization Cutting 3,700 Jobs
Published: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:57 p.m.
Barclays announced a major reorganization that will eliminate 3,700 jobs and close several business units, as the bank reported a big loss in the fourth quarter of 2012. The overhaul of its operations comes after a series of scandals at the bank, including one concerning the manipulation of benchmark interest rates, which led to the resignation of the firm's former chief executive, Robert E. Diamond Jr. In a bid to reduce its exposure to risky trading activity, Barclays plans to close a number of operations in Europe and Asia. The recent scandals weighed down the bank's fourth-quarter earnings. Barclays said Tuesday that it posted a net loss of $1.3 billion in the last three months of 2012, compared with a profit of 356 million pounds in the period a year earlier.
