Hi, As pointed out by some recent messages on the cedet-devel ML, the lexical analysis tools in semantic don't handle well block structures which are not delimited by open/close parenthesis-like characters. In fact that limitation comes from Emacs itself which associates blocks with parenthesized-like expressions, delimited by single characters that respectively have the open and close parenthesis syntax classes. With such parenthesized-like expressions it is easy and natural to write a single analyzer that returns a single high level lexical token for a block, ignoring other low level tokens inside that block, simply using `forward-list' to skip at the end of the parenthesized-like expression. Something like this: (define-lex-regex-analyzer simple-paren-delimited-block-analyzer "Detect an open parenthesis-like character. Return a high level token for the whole parenthesized expression." "\\s(" (semantic-lex-push-token (semantic-lex-token 'semantic-list (match-beginning 0) (save-excursion (semantic-lex-unterminated-syntax-protection 'semantic-list ;; Just skip to the close parenthesis-like character. (forward-list 1) (point)) )))) Things are more difficult when blocks are delimited by keywords or any other non-parenthesis-like single characters. Like in this pascal-like program __ sorry I am not a pascal programmer ;) __ where blocks are delimited by the `begin' and `end' keywords: program test begin do while (cond) begin i = i + 1; end end So here is a proposal which I hope will make things better ;) My idea is to use the semantic lexer itself to handle block structures, using the low level tokens pushed into the lexical stream. For example, the full lexical analysis of the above pascal-like program will return these low level tokens: ((program 1 . 8) (test 9 . 13) (begin 14 . 19) (do 23 . 25) (while 26 . 31) (open-paren 32 . 33) (cond 33 . 37) (close-paren 37 . 38) (begin 42 . 47) (i 54 . 55) (punctuation 56 . 57) (i 58 . 59) (punctuation 60 . 61) (number 62 . 63) (punctuation 63 . 64) (end 68 . 71) (end 72 . 75)) In a such stream it is easy to identify blocks when the `begin' and `end' keywords are encountered. The principle I propose is to filter such `begin' and `end' tokens, and, based on the current value of `semantic-lex-maximum-depth', collapse the low level tokens found between those delimiters into high level block tokens. For example when `semantic-lex-maximum-depth' is 0, the lexer will returns these tokens: ((program 1 . 8) (test 9 . 13) (begin-end-block 14 . 75)) When `semantic-lex-maximum-depth' is 1, it will return: ((program 1 . 8) (test 9 . 13) (begin 14 . 19) (do 23 . 25) (while 26 . 31) (semantic-list 32 . 38) (begin-end-block 42 . 71) (end 72 . 75)) The main advantage of that mechanism is that it doesn't depend on Emacs syntax classes so that any tokens can be used as block delimiters. The main issue could be a slow down of the lexer because it is necessary to analyze inside blocks to search for the end of block token. Notice that a full parser, like the wisent-java one, already do a full lexical analysis and performance is not so bad ;) A good way to minimize the performance issue, is to keep the low level tokens found inside collapsed blocks and reuse them when doing a recursive parse of the block, when using an EXPANDFULL clause for example. This is what I did in the first implementation I propose below, I used to produce the above sample results :) I put the new/modified code in a single "block-lex.el" file that can be easily loaded after semantic is setup. To test: Create a "test.pas" file with the sample pascal-like program above. Create the block-lex.el file with the code below. M-x load-file RET block-lex.el RET C-x C-f RET test.pas RET M-: (semantic-lex-init) M-: (block-test-lexer (point-min) (point-max)) M-: (block-test-lexer (point-min) (point-max) 1) M-: (block-test-lexer (point-min) (point-max) 10) After each call to block-test-lexer you can examine the variable `semantic-lex-block-streams' which will keep the lower tokens found inside collapsed high level blocks. The next step will be to write a sample parser to use this sample lexer! However, before going further I would like to know your opinion, ideas, etc.. Thanks!

What I particularly like about your proposal, is that it could work with languages that nest these block keywords as in your example. This was a major limiting factor in (if I remember rightly) the Ruby language. This could also be tested for speed by converting a { } type block structure to do the same in an existing language.

It is often claimed that the only tensors invariant under the orthogonal transformations (rotations) are the Kronecker delta $\delta_{ij}$, the Levi-Civita epsilon $\epsilon_{ijk}$ and various combinations of their tensor products. While it is easy to check that $\delta_{ij}$ and $\epsilon_{ijk}$ are indeed invariant under rotations, I would like to know if there exist any proof by construction that they are the only (irreducible) tensors with this property.
This is somewhat late in the day / year, but I suspect the author is asking about representations of isotropic Cartesian tensors, where "isotropic" means "invariant under the action of proper orthogonal transformations" and "Cartesian" means the underlying space is Euclidean $R^n$ ($R^3$ is a case of great practical interest).
The proofs for the two cases asked here are non-trivial, and given in
Weyl, H., The Classical Groups, Princeton University Press, 1939
Constructions for higher-order isotropic Cartesian tensors are also given there.
The proof given is a lot more concrete and "hands on" than Weyl's proof linked to by user_of_math.
$\mathtt{Definition:}$ $T$ is an isotropic tensor of type $(0,n)$ if $\;T_{i_1i_2...i_n}=R_{i_1j_1}R_{i_2j_2}...R_{i_nj_n}T_{j_1j_2...j_n}$ whenever $R$ is an orthogonal matrix i.e $R^TR=RR^T=I$.

The excitement is already building with the New England Patriots and New York Jets squaring off on "Monday Night Football" on Dec. 6. Jets coach Rex Ryan has already called it the "biggest game of the year."
This week's mailbag digs deeper into the game, focusing on some of the matchups and other issues surrounding the teams.
E-mailers brought their "A" game this week, so let's get right to it:
Q: Mike, how do you think the Jets' defense will attack the Patriots -- blitz or stay back and play coverage? In the first meeting Brady really picked the D apart when they blitzed him and seemed to struggle when they just sat back and dropped extra defenders into coverage. This may have also just been the fact that he was clearly forcing the ball to Randy Moss. I think we can handle any D the Jets throw at us this time around because we are far more balanced. -- Cory (Medford, Mass.)
A: Cory, Bill Belichick says that the Jets blitz about 50 percent of the time and I'd be surprised if they all of a sudden go cold turkey on that. So I think we can expect to see the Jets blitz at times. If I had to sum up my thoughts, I'd look to the Cleveland game as a good model to follow. Rex Ryan's brother, Rob, is the Browns' defensive coordinator. On that day, the Browns did a nice job disguising their pre-snap intentions -- sometimes blitzing, sometimes dropping into coverage -- and I expect the Jets to adopt a similar approach.
Q: Mike, I seem to remember the Jets killing us in the second half by running against our sub package defense. How do you anticipate this matchup in the big game come Monday? -- Kartal (Denver, Colo.)
A: Kartal, I see three aspects of overall matchup between the Jets' offense and Patriots' defense. When the Jets have two backs in the game, it's the base 3-4 alignment for the Patriots. When the Jets go with three receivers, that's a nickel package with three safeties. The third matchup is Brad Smith-based. Because he's such an X factor for the Jets and could line up anywhere on offense, the Patriots will have to decide how they want to handle that. Specific to the question, I think the three-safety sub package will be able to hold up enough against the run.
Q: The Bears scare me more than any other team, but this is Jets week. One game at a time, as the coach always says. In your eyes, what contributed to the Jets winning the first meeting, and are Pats able to overcome it this time? -- MarkJ (Japan)
A: Mark, looking back on what I wrote after that game, I was pretty hard on Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. I think Brady would agree that it wasn't his best performance, so I'd start there when revisiting the primary factors that contributed to the team's 28-14 loss. The offense was stuck in neutral for the second half, in part because I thought Brady was jamming the ball into Randy Moss. In retrospect, that might have been the beginning of the end of Moss' time in New England. It is my theory that Brady felt a physical and mental pull to keep Moss involved in the attack so he would remain interested, and it was starting to weigh down Brady and the offense. I don't think we'll see the same problems Monday night.
Q: Mike, the Patriots team and organization have grown remarkably in the last 11 games, been through a lot of changes and passed some pretty hard tests. It looks like the time is near to play a 60-minute complete game at the same level and consistency, and close the game once and for all. Do you think this will happen vs. the NY Jets? -- Memo (Tijuana, Mexico)
A: I think that's what it's going to take to beat the Jets, who have proved to be one of the best teams in the NFL. The Patriots are in a similar class. I believe they will rise up to the challenge on "Tedy Bruschi Night."
Q: Hey Mike, you were accurate in your prediction about how the Pats-Lions game would play out with it being tight early before the Pats pull away in the second half, so how do you predict the Pats-Jets game to unfold? -- Joe (Burlington, VT)
A: Joe, I like the Patriots to win a classic game at home. I am picking them by a touchdown, 24-17.
Q: Hey Mike, just wondering what your thoughts are on the Pats/Jets game on Monday night? -- Rick Cipullo (Brockton, Mass.)
A: Rick, my first thought is to step back and appreciate it. For 10 years now, it seems like the Patriots are playing in at least one of these types of games per year and it's special, something that I sense we'll be talking about 15-20 years from now, saying "Remember the good old days and all those big games?" This is what competition is all about. As for the game, which is what I think the question was really about, I like the Patriots' chances. This team is resilient and has an impressive mental and physical toughness to it. The Jets have a similar quality to them, but I like the Patriots because they are at home.
Q: Mike, hopefully not jinxing in advance of the Jets game, but we've had zero turnovers in the last three games. What's the Patriots' record in this regard? Also seems a good stat to reflect the "big" mistake-free play since the Browns game. -- Mark (Dublin, Ireland)
A: Mark, the turnover differential is a major part of the Patriots' success this year. The team is plus-11 on the season, which is tied for second in the NFL (20 takeaways, nine giveaways), and two of those giveaways came on a Hail Mary and a late interception against the Browns when backup quarterback Brian Hoyer was in the game. As for the record, I'm going to try to dig that up and will either add it into the mailbag or post on our blog.
Q: Hey Mike, did you see Julius Peppers on Sunday? What I wouldn't give for a pass rusher even somewhat close to his league. How can we get someone like that? -- Papi Shimon (NYC)
A: Papi, you either have to open the financial vault to the tune of six years, $91.5 million with $41 million in bonuses/guarantees -- which is what the Bears paid -- or have the keen scouting eye to draft and develop a player like that out of college. This topic has been explored multiple times in the mailbag this year, but the Patriots had a chance with Clay Matthews last year in the first round of the draft. I watched him with interest in Sunday's Green Bay-Atlanta game and I was impressed with how quick and explosive he was, thinking to myself, That's the type of player the Patriots need, assuming all the off-the-field questions are answered positively. The Patriots obviously did OK with Patrick Chung, but I couldn't help but wonder what Matthews, solely from a pass-rush perspective in sub packages, would have been like in New England.
Q: What is wrong with the defense? There seems to be a lot of homers telling us how great the individuals are, but what makes the Patriots the 31st-ranked defense? -- Earl (Waltham, Mass.)
A: Earl, I'd start in two areas when it comes to assessing the defense. The first is the pass rush. Too many times I feel like opposing quarterbacks are too comfortable as a result of not feeling enough heat on a consistent basis. The second is youth. I think the players sometimes get a little jittery at times and have trouble stabilizing themselves because they are still growing into the job. Obviously these aren't the only issues, but that's where I'd start. The other point I'd make is that the 30th ranking doesn't account for one of the key parts of football -- turnovers. This defense comes up with them at critical times and it deserves credit for that.
Q: During the last game, Phil Simms made the comment that the Pats were struggling at times against the run because they were scheming against the Lions' pass first, run second. While that may have been partly true, I saw it more as the Wilfork effect. When he was not on the field, the Pats struggled against the run. Is there any question he is their best and most dominant defense player? All due respect to Mayo, it's not even close. Beyond that, he's the second-best player on the team behind Brady. While the Patriots made it interesting during the contract negotiations, this personnel decision has been a home run. -- Brian (Mansfield, Mass.)
A: Brian, Tedy Bruschi made the same point in his most recent "Bruschi on Tap" piece (see point No. 4). Going back to those negotiations, I think a big part of it is that Wilfork is more than just a standard two-down nose tackle in the 3-4, so it was a bit more of a challenge to find a comparable player to establish his market value. Wilfork is versatile and can do a lot of different things -- if asked to do so. We're seeing that this year. I agree that he is their defensive MVP. He's having a terrific season and I know how highly Jets center Nick Mangold thinks of him; Mangold calls him one of the toughest players he has to match up against.
Q: In order for the Patriots to make a playoff run in January weather, I think their defense needs to start holding teams under 20 points per game. We cannot expect the offense to score 30 points in the playoffs. Your thoughts? -- Paul (Scituate, Mass.)
A: Paul, that's a tough one for me to be real convincing on because a lot of it will depend on the matchup. A game against the Jaguars in the playoffs, for example, and I like the Patriots' chances of scoring 30.The Jets? Maybe not so much. I look at it this way: If Tom Brady keeps playing the way he is, and this defense keeps coming up with critical stops and turnovers, anything is possible for this team. It's a winning formula.
Q: Hi Mike, many of us were curious to see how things would pan out with Coach Belichick leading the defense and Matt Patricia not officially been named defensive coordinator. Through 12 weeks the Patriots are 31st in the league in team defense. Can you shed some light on who you think has had more of a say on defense? -- Derek (Dallas, Texas)
A: Derek, I think it's Belichick, first and foremost. Players say he's the one leading the meetings, unless something has changed in recent weeks. Patricia looks like the No. 1 defensive assistant, the coach who would pull it all together if Belichick is pulled in another direction.
Q: Mike, it is well documented that defensively the Patriots struggle mightily on third down. While that can't be denied, is it possible the bigger issue is more on first-down D? It seems that over the course of the season they have given up more than most teams on first down. Not only does this give the offense more flexibility on second down, but it often leaves the Pats in a third-and-short situation when the opponent does fail to convert on second down. -- Ken Snyder (Indianapolis)
A: Ken, the Patriots rank 18th in the NFL in terms of yards given up per first-down play, with an average of 5.82. So that's just below the average and wouldn't seem to be the big area of concern.
Q: Hi Mike, where do the Patriots' special teams rank in the NFL? They started off strong but seemed to have trailed off. They seem like a middle of the pack special teams unit. -- Ashley (Worcester, Mass.)
A: Ashley, this is a good observation and I believe it's one of Bill Belichick's big concerns entering Monday's game as the Jets look like they have an advantage in that area. The Patriots rank 19th in kickoff return average, 11th in punt return average, 21st in kickoff coverage average, and fifth in punt coverage average.
Q: Hi Mike, I'm really worried about our kicking game now. Shayne Graham on kickoffs is weak. Do you think Mesko could take the kickoffs? He has a big leg and one day someone is gonna take a kick to the house against us. -- Imala (Brisbane, Australia)
A: Imala, this has to be a big area of concern for the Patriots this week, given the Jets' strength. One thing I'd say about Graham is that he is not known for distance on kickoffs, so he needs to be better with his hang time. We saw it against the Lions -- his longest kickoff was a low line drive that was returned 42 yards, the longest return of the game. I'm not sure if Mesko could take the kickoffs. My hunch is that the Patriots will stick with Graham.
Q: Hi Mike, in light of the revelations regarding Josh McDaniels, I had a question regarding the previous Patriots penalty. I was always under the impression that if the Patriots had just taped the Jets' hand signals from the stands/crowd, then it's considered legal and that the location of the taping was the illegal part. Is that correct? -- Gary (Cambridge, MA)
A: Gary, the initial rule in the Constitution & Bylaws was written poorly so that it could have been interpreted in a number of ways. In September 2006, the league sent a memo to all teams letting them know that any taping of signals -- from any location -- was prohibited. Here are the three key pieces of information which I dug up from that time:
Constitution & Bylaws: "Any use by any club at any time, from the start to the finish of any game in which such club is a participant, of any communications or information-gathering equipment, other than Polaroid-type cameras or field telephones, shall be prohibited, including without limitation videotape machines, telephone tapping, or bugging devices, or any other form of electronic devices that might aid a team during the playing of a game."
September 2006 memo: "Videotaping of any type, including but not limited to taping of an opponent's offensive or defensive signals, is prohibited on the sidelines, in the coaches' booth, in the locker room, or at any other locations accessible to club staff members during the game."
League's operations manual: "No video recording devices of any kind are permitted to be in use in the coaches' booth, on the field, or in the locker room during the game." Furthermore, all video shooting locations for shooting purposes "must be enclosed on all sides with a roof overhead."
Q: In Sunday's "quick-hit thoughts" you speculated Josh McDaniels might be fired after this season. If so, what's the chances of him coming back to Pats' coaching staff. He and BB seemed to part on good terms but maybe he'd rather stay out from under BB's shadow to make his own name now. -- Johnny (Rutland, VT)
A: Johnny, I could see a scenario in which McDaniels returned to the Patriots in a similar role that Bill Belichick did under Bill Parcells in 1996. I am a big believer in McDaniels' abilities as a coach and feel like he'd be a serious consideration as a successor to Belichick when the time came that Belichick felt ready to step down. I think McDaniels' big issue in Denver is not having a good personnel man by his side. He's made some very poor personnel decisions there.
Q: Hey Mike, I've heard announcers and commentators calling BenJarvus Green-Ellis a "serviceable back". This makes it sound as though he is just a fill-in for Fred Taylor or until we draft a new back. But he is second in the NFL in rushing touchdowns, has more rushing yards than Matt Forte, Shonn Greene, Brandon Jacobs and Fred Jackson (who are all established starters), and is on pace to easily rush for double-digit touchdowns, something not done since Corey Dillon. He has great vision, power and speed. And he's only a third-year player. Why can't he be our starter for years to come? -- James (Gainesville, Fla.)
A: James, I think he can be, but I do believe the Patriots still need to add to the running back spot because only Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead are under the team's control from a contractual standpoint for 2011. As we've seen, that's a position that can quickly become depleted and depth is important. It's also a position where it seems like a replacement is easier to find than others.
Q: Yeah, Hernandez, Gronkowski and Woodhead have all been a boost to the offensive production this year. To me it's been Green-Ellis just doing his job by running hard and following his blockers that has been most impressive. The yards per carry by the running backs and the play of the offensive line was good last year, but Benny's ability to follow the line's blocking and avoid negative plays and most importantly be able to pick up first downs and run out the clock better than they did last year have made a big deference in this year's team. Your thoughts? -- David (North Attleboro, Mass.)
A: You said it well, David. I don't think many followers of the team thought this is the way the Patriots' running back situation would unfold. Green-Ellis has been terrific.
Q: Mike, how do you think Brandon Tate's drops are impacting his role in the offense? Does he get a little extra slack for being young and a hard worker, or is Brady's confidence in his ability to catch a big pass eroding? Also, am I crazy for thinking Devin McCourty is a couple big plays away from ROY? -- Matt (Charlestown, Mass.)
A: Matt, I don't think Tate's drops are impacting his role as much as three other factors: 1. The chemistry which has been recaptured between Tom Brady and Deion Branch; 2. The return of Wes Welker to close to full strength (did you see him power through those two Lions players near the goal line?); 3. The offense shifting to more of a two-tight end attack, which means only two receivers are on the field at the same time. As for McCourty, I'd still call him a longshot for Defensive Rookie of the Year honors. It will probably go to Lions defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh and he's a worthy choice. But I think most anyone who watches football and studies it would agree that McCourty deserves to be in the discussion.
Q: Mike, Jerod Mayo has ridiculous tackling numbers compared to the rest of the league. He has 132 and the next-highest guy (Tennessee's Stephen Tulloch) has 110. Pro Bowl year for Mayo? -- James (Gainesville, Fla.)
A: I think he has to be in consideration, James, but it could be tough given the competition. You figure Ray Lewis is a lock for one of the inside linebacker spots based on a combination of play and reputation. So that would leave Mayo battling for the other spot with the likes of Lawrence Timmons, Bart Scott, DeMeco Ryans and a few others. Tough call there. It's hard to make it on tackles alone. I think more big plays will be needed for Mayo to break through.
Q: Mike, what on earth has happened to Taylor Price? Has he just fallen out of the good graces of the coaching staff? With the departure of Randy Moss I thought he might see some game action but he seems to be AWOL. What gives? -- Ed Alves (Nashua, N.H.)
A: Ed, there are two main factors that I see when it comes to Price, who is basically serving a redshirt-type season after being selected in the third round of the draft. 1. Because the Ohio University offense was option-based, Price had a steeper learning curve when coming to the NFL than most, so it's taking a little more time, and it didn't help that he had to miss some spring camps; 2. The Patriots have morphed into more of a two-receiver attack, and when you have Deion Branch, Wes Welker, Brandon Tate and Julian Edelman, there isn't room for a fifth option unless he's a major difference-maker on special teams. Price will be in the mix next year, for sure.
Q: Hi Mike, with Mankins playing well and the nasty attitude he is bringing to the offensive line, do you think there is a chance he will re-sign? Is the offer from the team still on the table? I personally don't believe there is a better alternative. -- Mike (Phoenix, Ariz.)
A: Mike, the sides have agreed that now is not the time to talk; they will revisit after the season, perhaps. From Mankins' viewpoint, assuming he doesn't get assigned the franchise tag, I think he will still want to test the open market. If the Patriots' offer is the best he can get, I could envision him staying. But if another team steps up with a better offer, I think he'll be on his way.
Q: Mike, there have been a few games lately where I'm not sure who to root for as a homer. With Miami and Oakland on Sunday, I chose to root for Miami since they don't seem to be a threat within the division while Oakland traded us the first-round pick. Who else has traded future picks to the Pats and what are they? -- Paul (VT)
A: Paul, the teams you want to be keeping an eye on are Carolina and Minnesota. The Patriots own Carolina's 2011 second-rounder as a result of trading a 2010 third-round pick during April's draft. Terrific trade. The Patriots own Minnesota's 2011 third-rounder as a result of trading Randy Moss this year. In retrospect, it's hard to argue with that one either.
Q: Hey Mike, I have a few questions and all of them have to do with free agents. Jarvis Green was released by the Broncos, and Sam Aiken and Adalius Thomas were let go by the Patriots. Why haven't they found new teams? Finally, Shawne Merriman will be a free agent at the end of the year, as will Sidney Rice and Vincent Jackson. Any chance one or more of those players will end up in New England? -- Andrew Child (Mexico, Maine)
A: Andrew, the answer is pretty simple: Teams don't think they're either good enough, worth the cost to sign them or worth the roster spot that could go to a younger player to develop for the longer term. Aiken had hooked on with the Browns briefly before being let go. As for Thomas, this is a chance to acknowledge that I was wrong last year when I thought he should have been rushing the passer more. If 31 other teams feel the same way, I think it's about time to fess up on that one. I don't see Merriman, Rice or Jackson coming to New England in the offseason.
Q: Mike,there was a report this week that Plaxico Burress is drawing interest from two teams. Do you see him as a possible fit on the Patriots' roster and will the Patriots be interested in him? -- Jay H (Beirut, Lebanon)
A: Jay, I don't see the fit or any interest for the Patriots. I think their focus will be more on developing and working with Taylor Price, their 2010 third-round choice who is being groomed behind the scenes.
Q: Hi Mike, in the ongoing negotiations between the league and the players' association, is there any discussions about a modified injured reserve? It's a shame that under the current system, a player like Leigh Bodden is out for the year when he looks pretty good right now after his surgery. Any thoughts about an eight-game IR? -- John F (Walpole, Mass.)
A: John, one of the ideas is a six-game injured reserve list that teams could place one player on during the year. That would be one of the alterations the league would consider if going to an 18-game season. We'd also probably be looking at expanding the 53-man roster by a spot or two and adding one or two practice squad spots.

Is Jimmy Graham a 1st Round pick?
Some fantasy football owners think Jimmy Graham is worth a first round pick but Yahoo! Sports' Brad Evans explains why that's insane
Some fantasy football owners think Jimmy Graham is worth a first round pick but Yahoo! Sports' Brad Evans explains why that's insane
Moshika: I am so sorry Mark, but voting for Hillary following in the footsteps of Obama -- if the sky has no ceiling, then Hillary Clinton and her likes can never be stopped.. Read the following by the National Review...: At the end of the day, one wonders what level of misbehavior or incompetence the liberal press won't tolerate from Hillary Clinton. Provided that she has a sufficient chance to offer a series of denials, adjust her story to new facts, and — above all — blame Republicans for her plight, she can do virtually anything. The media sellout is complete. She could shoot a man in Reno — just to watch him die — and the headlines in the Huffington Post would praise her for observational skills and intellectual curiosity. Why? Because if Hillary loses then Republicans win, and for millions on the left, that's a fate worse than incompetence, worse than corruption, and — when it comes to Benghazi — worse even than other men's deaths. — David French is an attorney and a staff writer at National Review. And then, there is.... Do the Clintons Even Care How Their Myriad Scandals Affect Their Public Image? Let's translate this into plain English: The hearing was a "bust" because Hillary rationalized away her abject failures and multiple lies with poise and panache. Libya is a failed state? The State Department ignored warning after warning, and failed to protect its people at our embassy? There was no adequate American response despite an hours-long firefight in Benghazi? The administration lied to the American people for day after day after day about the cause of the attack? No matter. Look at how mean the Republicans are! Gaze in wonder at Hillary's stamina. End the hearings and #FreeHillary! No one, however, should be surprised that Hillary was able to dazzle the Left. While she's not as charismatic as her husband, she does share his greatest political gift — the ability to persuade millions of Americans to not just accept but defend truly reprehensible, indefensible conduct. Consider Bill Clinton. After months of public combat with Kenneth Starr and House Republicans, the public was ready to "move on" from revelations that Clinton not only engaged in a tawdry affair in the Oval Office but also lied under oath — all the while committing acts of mass-scale character assassination against the people who doggedly pursued the truth. RELATED: The Dirty Business of the Hillary Machine, Again "Sure, but Bill Clinton's marriage is his own business, and doesn't everyone lie about affairs?" declared the same people who've collected countless scalps of executives and professionals caught doing far less. And so we're left with arguably the most popular Democrat in the land occupying a gray area between cad and sexual predator — between Eliot Spitzer and Bill Cosby — and he's still toasted from coast to coast. NOW; Consider Hillary's e-mail scandal. After months of drip-drip-drip public revelations, the Democratic party is once again ready to move on from the fact that the secretary of state kept classified information on an unsecure server located in the bathroom of a Denver loft apartment. Every other government employee would face imminent prosecution, but Hillary? This is all old news. In the Left's eyes, there's now no "smoking gun" unless a Freedom of Information Act Request turns up an e-mail from her home-brewed IT system marked "Top Secret" that says, "I know I'm committing a felony sending this, but . . . " But the granddaddy of them all is of course Benghazi. Clinton, one of the chief architects of America's "We came, we saw, he died" Libya policy, is now the victim of Republican hectoring in spite of failure after failure, lie after lie, and — tragically — death after death. A Republican secretary of state would have been rightly hounded from office if he or she didn't have the grace to resign. In the Left's eyes, however, there's now no "smoking gun" unless Trey Gowdy can retrieve a deleted e-mail from Clinton to Obama that begins, "Dear Barack, with the election this close, we can't afford to tell the truth about the Libya attack. Oh, and another thing... BY CHRISTINA SARICH POSTED ON FEBRUARY 19, 2016 Hillary Clinton was asked Which enemy that you made during your political career are you most proud of?" Pharmaceutical companies have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars in the 2016 presidential election cycle. Guess which presidential candidate accepted far more campaign cash than any other from Big Pharma? The money went to…drum roll please...Hillary Clinton. What's more, Clinton says she's proud to have drug companies as her enemies. These big, bad companies continue to be big spenders, donating $951,018 to presidential candidates in the 2016 presidential election, according to the Center for Responsive Politics and the Federal Election Commission – including to her campaign. Clinton collected $336,416 in donations from the pharma/health industry, over a third of the total contributions during the 2016 presidential campaign. The next biggest recipient was Republican candidate Jeb Bush, who collected less than half the amount of Clinton. Trump received a whopping $1001 – enough to buy one Daraprim pill. These donations don't include the big money corporations spend on lobbying Congress as well. For example, Pfizer, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies, spent more than $10 million in lobbying efforts last year. Big Pharma bets on established candidates that they think they can influence once they are in office. Scott Swenson, vice president for communications for Common Cause, a nonprofit political watchdog group, says: "Established industries and lobbies give primarily to establishment candidates that they perceive will be leaders and eventual nominees." The health industry overall — combining health professionals, hospitals, HMOs and pharmaceutical companies — donated over $9.5 million to the 2016 presidential candidates, making it the third largest donating industry. Clinton is still the top beneficiary from this group, receiving more than $3.5 million in donations. Clinton is also a big supporter for Big Biotech and GMOs – check it Bottom line; Hillary Clinton will continue to place tax on tax on tax for the middle class and the poor -- Large companies of all sorts, will continue to exploit the system as truly corrupt and people like Hillary Clinton can be bought and sold. For all American's Hillary Clinton is the Grimm Reapers her sickle will sweep across America like the black plague.

Yum! Perfect solution for a souvlaki craving. I ate this all by myself for dinner while Little Miss (DD) and Hubby had steak (which they requested) and I could see in their eyes they wished they had one of these in their hands. Thank you Anme
I made this and so tasty. I didn't have any fetta, so used grated tasty cheese. Also served it up with finely diced red capsicum and Spanish onion. Will definitely make it again.
simply and tasty. made as the weekly special at the tuck shop, made 24 and sold out :)
Very good!
Delicious ,added in some avocado and that worked well .Also i put in some sugar because i thought bit might be a bit sour without it .Will make again but next time doubled!
Delicious. I thought I had purchased regular tortillas, but when I got them out I noticed they were cheddar/jalepeno. I didn't think that would taste very good, so I just wrapped up the chicken et al in the lettuce leaves. Yummy and low carb!
This is unbelievably delicious! My daughter(20), husband and I all couldn't get over it. I made it exactly as stated. Yum!! I only wish I knew how to pronounce the sauce name :)
mmmm...good this really hits the spot for a good easy lunch. I cooked the chicken and just kept it in the fridge to thrown together for lunch.
YUM! The Marinade for the chicken was awesome! I did add some Cavender's Greek seasoning to it, and sprinkled some on the chicken before grilling on my George Forman grill. I used a little extra yogurt than called for, also my yogurt was thickened by straining it overnight first. I added a little salt too. I served it with some to-die-for Lebonese pita breads that I bought, and served it more of a gyro style with lettuce and thinly sliced red onion as the toppings. Absolutely Wonderful!

PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) - Scientists and health experts are gathered in California at Stanford University to discuss the dangers of sitting.
Although much of the research into the health risks is preliminary, several studies suggest that people who spend prolonged periods on their behind are more likely to be overweight, have heart disease or even die.
The goal of the two-day conference that started Thursday in Palo Alto is to discuss the existing science on the topic and what research is still needed.
Experts hope that with more research and discussion, policymakers will eventually be able to issue guidelines about how much time in a seat is too much.
For now, scientists are encouraging people to take breaks and move around more.

Yes, this was the question. And after several months of contemplation I decided to give it a try! So, what is this flattr thingy you might ask – apart from all these little buttons? Well, it is a newish social micro payment system and provides an easy way to share money and make small donations. Check flattr.com or watch the video below for a better explanation. Basically, if you have a flattr account you can click on one of the buttons on this blog to give a small amount of money.
Although I find the idea behind flattr fascinating I doubt that it will be a huge success on this blog because of various reasons. First of all I don't think I have enough readers (a common problem among eurobloggers!). I also suspect that most of my readers do not have a flattr account. The second problem is that flattr is not yet popular enough. It seems to me that only few blogs (mainly tech related), add-ons and several NGOs (wikileaks being the most prominent) use it actively. Only in Germany flattr seems to be a known service. This situation is a problem for thus blog. Very few readers have even fewer flattr accounts… So I suppose the main aim for your blogger – to re-finance the server/hosting costs – cannot be achieved. Nevertheless, I would greatly appreciate your flattr love… 😉
So the main reason why I am using flattr now is twofold. It gives me the opportunity to flattr others and I hope to get to know the system better. Maybe I can use it in other projects more successfully!

Father accused of driving drunk with kids in carSeptember 05,2013Police: Man drove drunk with his kids
BENNINGTON A local man faces criminal charges after police said he had a blood-alcohol level more than 2½ times the legal limit while driving with his two children, 7 and 10, in the car.
Michael A. Martin, 31, of Bennington was arraigned Tuesday in Bennington criminal court on a misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol. The charge was modified because Martin had been convicted of the same charge in July 2006.
Trooper Elliott Justinger of the Vermont State Police said he had been dispatched to Shaftsbury for a citizen dispute at 8:50 p.m. Monday. But on the way he learned that one of the people involved, later identified as Martin, had left with two children in his car.
At Martins home on School Street, Justinger said, Martin told him hed had 14 beers that day but had slept for five hours before driving.
A preliminary breath test indicated Martins blood-alcohol content was 0.208 percent at 9:20 p.m., the trooper said. The legal limit for driving in Vermont is 0.08 percent.
At the police barracks Martin declined to give police a statement or provide a breath sample, according to Justinger.

(AP) Joshua Houston and his teammates from the west side of Chicago aren't ready to go home just yet.Pierce Jones and Trey Hondras homered, and Houston hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the fifth inning as Chicago's Jackie Robinson West beat Cumberland, Rhode Island, 8-7 on Monday night in an elimination game at the Little League World Series.''It means a lot because it's been 31 years,'' said Marquis Jackson, who had two hits and scored twice. ''It shows anything is possible.''The Jackie Robinson West team, representing the Great Lakes, is comprised of all African-American players and is making its first appearance in the World Series since 1983. It will play Pearland, Texas, on Tuesday night.''I don't think they really grasp what's going on,'' manager Darold Butler said. ''It doesn't matter who they're playing. This team's a special team.''Jones led off the game with his fourth homer of the World Series, a solo shot to center field, to get Chicago rolling, his teammates embracing him when he crossed home plate.Cumberland responded with two runs in the bottom of the first. CJ Davock singled to left and Addison Kopack walked. Tyler Provost followed with an RBI single to center and Kopack scored when the cutoff throw sailed past Houston at third.Hondras hit a towering three-run homer to center in the second to stake Chicago to a three-run lead and Houston's RBI single in the top of the third made it 6-2.Undaunted, Cumberland laced six straight hits to spark a five-run rally in the bottom of the third to take a 7-6 lead. Kopack had a run-scoring single, Provost laced a two-run single to left, and Trey Thibeault lined a shot down the left-field line that just cleared the fence for a two-run homer.Hondras tried to spark Chicago in the fourth, but he was thrown out at third trying to stretch his line drive that bounced off the left-center field wall. Chicago protested, but the call was upheld, although a replay showed the fielder missed the tag.In the fifth, lefty-hitting Darion Radcliff's hard RBI single to left tied it for Cumberland before Houston drove a line drive down the left-field line to bring in pinch-runner Lawrence Noble from second base with the decisive run.It wasn't the way Cumberland manager Dave Belisle wanted his season to end. Not after his impassioned speech had sparked that scintillating 8-7 comeback win over Nashville, Tennessee, on Saturday.''We showed our character again. It has to end sometime,'' Belisle said, fighting back tears at the end of his interview. ''They gave me memories I'll take home for a lifetime.

This is a really good cookie recipe! Very moist and yummy! I didn't have allspice so used pumpkin pie spice instead but still tasted great. I'll be using this one again. Thanks for sharing.
My son's daycare was looking for an eggless pumpkin cookie recipe (so my egg-allergic son could eat it, too). I did a search, and picked this one out since it had 4 good reviews. I do not bake hardly at all, so had to rely on the experience of others. The teacher made it today and said it came out better than some other pumpkin cookies she made with egg (mainly for comparison purposes). I got a chance to sample when I picked him up - and it was definitely the right choice!
Fantastic! I picked this for my one-year-old's November birthday treat since he is allergic to milk, soy, egg, and peanuts. I put the whole batter on a metal pizza pan and baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes (at negligible altitude) and got a DELICIOUS pumpkin-flavor, pizza-size muffin/cake. It was a hit with everyone and no allergic reactions! Huzzah! The leftovers will make yummy breakfast coffee cake.
These were a huge hit with my whole family and friends! I made them for my son who loves anything pumpkin, and I never have eggs in the house, so it seemed perfect! They were soft and cake like, and kept really well in a airtight container. The only changes I made was adding extra spices, i put in 2 tsp of cinnamon, and 1 tsp of nutmeg, just gave it more of the pumpkin pie flavor!
I got a lot of raves about this cookie. I cut the recipe in half and had to add a bit more flour, but that was my only change. Thanks for the great recipe!
I made these cookies for a friend who has an allergy to eggs. Nine people have already been eating and enjoying them today . I had to put a dish aside and hide it to be sure they got to my friend! We love the flavor of pumpkin and this cookie is a nice treat. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Bills under consideration in the Oklahoma House this week touch the use, and
possible regulation, of electronic smoking devices.
Two of the bills would place some regulation of e-cig sales within the same broad title of state law as tobacco products, while fashioning regulatory limitations and some protections for the devices. Either of those could represent a slowing of the anti-e-cigarette juggernaut in Oklahoma over the past year, financed in large part by a state government agency.

Last Days of the Sicilians
The dramatic story of the most successful criminal investigation ever, in which the FBI dealt a blow to the Sicilian Mafia and its worldwide drug trade. The first clues to the existence of a clandestine network of Sicilians in the midst of strife-torn American Mafia, emerge from the Brooklyn restaurant massacre of Bonnano family boss Carmine Galnate in 1979. A pair of agents pick up the trail which leads them all over America, to Rio and Palermo, until they eventually uncover the most lucrative heroin racket ever, worth more than a billion dollars. The Mafia however, are not their only enemies - they must also fend off jealous and important bureaucrats and crooked cops, who come close to blowing the case.

On the Boardwalk
By RACHELLE GARBARINE
Published: July 6, 2003
ASBURY PARK— IT is late morning down the Jersey Shore. The sun has burned through the clouds and hangs low over the Atlantic Ocean, which stretches like a slate blanket beyond the boardwalk, a lonely, nearly mile-long strip of warped and splintered wood that long ago had the life drained from it.
On this day, Sal Marino and Richard Handschuch are among a small clutch of people strolling on the boards, as has become their habit. Since the men, both in their 60's, retired from teaching several years ago, they have turned their love of the seashore and quest for fitness into a second career of sorts as boardwalk chroniclers. They are the authors of ''The Beach Bum's Guide to the Boardwalks of New Jersey'' (Beach Bum Press), which offers tidbits about the state's 41 boardwalks, 28 of which follow the shore in a broken line from Sea Bright in the north to Cape May in the south.
Strung -- or, perhaps, hammered -- end to end, the oceanfront boardwalks would total 32 miles. Most are still made of wood, but some are of other materials like recycled wood and plastic board, brick pavers, concrete, macadam or some combination of them.
Oceanside boardwalks, which date from the 1800's, are the foot-friendly main streets of the beach communities, a place for people to gather at land's end, where the air is salty and cars and traffic do not intrude. Whether they are lined with rides, games and fast-food stands or simply offer uncluttered views of the ocean, boardwalks are -- befitting New Jersey's tradition of home rule -- as different as the communities themselves. Having known better and worse times, they also hold secrets to their towns' pasts and, in some cases, a key to their futures.
Some boardwalks, like the one in Atlantic City -- considered the granddaddy of them all at 4 1/8 miles-- grew from a simple walkway to a tourist attraction and, despite some modern touches and updates, are content to remain so.
''Our boardwalk is really a boulevard,'' said Vicki Gold Levi, an Atlantic City historian and the author, with Lee Eisenberg, of ''Atlantic City: 125 Years of Ocean Madness.'' ''The others are just paths.''
Other towns along the 127-mile-long Jersey coast might take issue with that characterization. For instance, the boardwalks in Seaside Heights, Ocean City, Point Pleasant Beach as well as Wildwood and its sister city, North Wildwood, are also dedicated to the proposition that between Memorial Day and Labor Day people should venture to the Jersey Shore to play skeeball and ride a Ferris wheel.
On others, like the 1.8-mile stretch in Spring Lake, no commercial amusements ever stood or likely ever will. Still other boardwalks, such as those in Long Branch and Asbury Park, like the towns themselves, are struggling to make a comeback.
In Long Branch, there are plans to turn the 2.2-mile-long boardwalk into a year-round destination by luring tourists with boutiques and restaurants. In Asbury Park, a town mired in a seemingly endless renovation, there are hopes to transform the moribund boardwalk, slightly less than a mile, into a modern version of the entertainment center that it was in its heyday.
Mr. Marino, his curly hair stuffed under a cap, said he felt a bit sad when he and Mr. Handschuch walked the boards in Asbury Park. For them, the ghosts of a more glorious day entertain their minds and their own youthful memories claim their hearts.
The men say that when they were teenagers in the 1950's, the boardwalk was the place to take dates after a movie -- a place to walk under the stars, let the sea breezes kiss their faces, hear the waves pound the shore and become swept up in the romance of it all.
That romance is gone today, as are most of the amusements and fast-food stands. As a nod to its Spartan look, there is a sign stuck in the corner of a shop window that reads: Alarm Calls Police.
''Show me the baby carriages, the young people,'' Mr. Handschuch said as he extended his arms and turned his lanky frame from side to side. ''It is not the same. But it has to come back, the boardwalk and the city. You can't have one without the other.''
The New Train to the Sea
In the mid 1800's, the Camden and Atlantic Railroad came to Atlantic City, largely through the efforts of Jonathan Pitney, a physician from Absecon, and Richard Osborne, a civil engineer from Philadelphia. The two men convinced investors to finance 60 miles of tracks from Camden to the sandy hamlet of Atlantic City, which they touted as a health resort where the surf and sea could cure the ills of most urbanites.
By the end of the century, several rail lines snaked along the coast carrying people to the sea. In turn, some sleepy shore towns like Ocean City, Seaside Park and Wildwood blossomed into resorts.
Atlantic City is credited with inventing the raised wooden boardwalk in 1870. It sprang from practicality, a way concocted by a hotel owner, Jacob Keim, and a railroad conductor, Alexander Boardman, to keep sand off floors and furniture in hotel rooms and railroad cars.
Two months after Mr. Keim and and Mr. Boardman petitioned the city for a ''footwork,'' a mile-long street that sat 10 inches above the sand was built at a cost of $5,000. It was designed to be taken apart and packed away for the winter. By the end of the 19th century, a collection of modest boardwalks dotted the Jersey Shore.

James Fitton was a founding member of the left-wing Artists' International Association. He made his reputation as a political cartoonist for Left Review during the 1930s. With his colleagues James Boswell and James Holland, he was credited with the revival of a British tradition of political satire established in the eighteenth century by such figures as James Gillray.
Fitton's post-war paintings often show public dining rooms of some sort, and demonstrate a gentler form of witty social satire. Frying Tonight is a typical example.

VALLEY CITY, N.D. - Carol Umsted got more than the word of God during services this summer at the Congregational United Church of Christ of Valley City.
She also got $50 worth of free gas, thanks to winning a raffle. For the local farmer, it was a nice side benefit, at a time when gas was more than $4 a gallon.
Churches nationwide are making similar offers, ranging from gas card raffles to 99-cent gas sales at local stations, to boost attendance during the vacation season and attract new members.
But some Christians question whether a financial incentive should be used to draw people into church.
Robert Kruschwitz, director of The Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University, called the promotions "unseemly" and "misguided."
Umsted, a church official, said a couple of Valley City congregants stopped attending because they considered it "a bribe." But the Rev. Carl Borden, pastor of the congregation, said the overriding goal is to have a little fun and remind people that the church is there.
"It's a method of marketing for the church," he said. "For a $200 investment we've made, we got featured in the local newspaper once, twice on TV, and it's the buzz around town. I can't get a quarter-page ad for $200."
Church leaders have debated for years whether modern marketing techniques cheapen the faith or are an effective - and necessary - means of evangelizing. Even those Christians who believe some marketing is helpful disagree about how far they should take the approach.
David T. Olson, director of the American Church Research Project and head of church planting for the Evangelical Covenant Church, said independent, Pentecostal and Baptist churches with nontraditional ways of attracting new members are more likely to use promotions like the gas raffles. But he said there are other more effective ways of drawing newcomers.
"I personally would encourage them that having people from their church build relationships with their friends who do not attend church, and invite them as their friend, would be a much better strategy," Olson said.
Nathan White, an Atlanta-area Baptist, was troubled by a church gas card raffle he learned about at a Baptist church in Snellville, Ga. The corporate executive, who plans to become a pastor, thinks gas giveaways are shameful financial gimmicks that undermine the Gospel.
"They are appealing to the natural corruptions in unbelieving people ... . The Bible warns very explicitly about the dangers of greed, the love of money being the root of all evil," said White. "Appealing to the selfish motives of people is not Christianity."
The nondenominational Liquid Church in Morristown, N.J., took its gas promotion outside of the church. Members went to a local service station in August, bought $10,000 worth of fuel and sold it for 99 cents a gallon.
"We canceled services that day, and said our service to the community will be our service," said the Rev. Tim Lucas.
"This wasn't a gimmick, 'Hey, come to our church.' There was no bait-and-switch. We didn't try to convert people. We just wanted to show we care," he said.
He noted that the church also provides money to drill wells in African countries.
There, "water is the most precious liquid," Lucas said. "In New Jersey, it's gas."
Michael Cromartie, vice president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, a Washington, D.C., think tank, said there is a fine line between advertising a church and using what he called "huckster" means to entice outsiders.
He called the gas promotions in general "a clever tool."
"There are a lot of worse things that people can be doing in life than getting people to come to church," he said.

Overall Experience
Home away from home
July 26, 2016
Hotel was fresh up to date. Had everything needed in the room to make lunch or dinner. Socials were great and saved me money. Staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Social Beer was a nice treat.
New, classy
July 22, 2016
New, classy hotel for the cost, overall good value. My room had a full kitchen with full size fridge, stove, dishwasher, microwave, sink. Everything was in working order and clean. Kitchen and bathroom counter tops were granite, and in good shape. Cabinetry was classy looking. A/C had no trouble keeping up with the 90 degree heat. Plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby.
Pleasant Surprise - Great Stay
July 20, 2016
I had never heard of Staybridge Suites before this trip. What an amazing property! The suites are large with kitchens for the same price as a regular hotel room. The breakfast was fabulous - so many choices - lovely presentation. My kids enjoyed the pool and I used the workout room. Free laundry is great so you don't have to go home with a bunch of dirty laundry (or leave the property to do laundry and mess with finding quarters, etc). I was so pleasantly surprised by Staybridge. I would definitely look for them again when I'm on the road.
Great Rooms and Peaceful stay
July 19, 2016
I truly enjoyed my stay, except the Fitness Center, which was too cold to get a proper workout.
The rooms are exceptional and the interior and exterior of the hotel is very clean and quiet.
The staff are excellent!

I arrived on Saturday (25-Oct) at noon and fortunately at that point in time the wildfires
in the east of the LA area had no influence on the flight schedule. But I've heard
that people coming in later have problems. It's not because of the smoke which isn't
that dense in downtown LA or LAX airport, but the flight traffic control for the region
is in the fire area and they had to plan for evacuation.
I just attended the keynotes from Bill Gates and Jim Allchin. Overall the two sessions
really got the message out what all the new Longhorn technologies (Avalon, WinFS and
Indigo) will bring to endusers as well as to developers. Seeing Jim working as code
monkey for Don Box was really fun:-)
