Sallie Weeps Blood, Greg Smith Cashes In, Breaking Up the Banks and More
Sallie Krawcheck gave what is likely the most graphic description of big bank complexity, while Goldman Sachs prepares for ex-employee Greg Smith's supposedly tell-all book. Here what people are saying about these newsmakers, breaking up the big banks and the euro's continued troubles in this week's top quotes.
September 14, 2012
1. True Blood
It makes you weep blood out of your eyes.
—Sallie L. Krawcheck (pictured at right), who ran Bank of America's wealth management division before a management reshuffling last year, said regarding why she has concerns about the complexity of financial behemoths.

Mariners expected to part ways with Jon Garland
Seattle Mariners RHP Jon Garland will likely opt out of his contract, according to multiple reports. General Manager Jack Zduriencik said there wasn't room for the veteran right-hander in the rotation and a roster spot could not be tendered to the 33-year-old. Garland has an opt-out clause in his contract after signing with the club on a minor-league deal in February.
Garland pitched well for the Mariners this spring, posting a 2.25 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 12 innings. Prior to the Spring Training assignment with the Mariners, Garland last pitched in the big leagues in 2011 with the Dodgers before having season-ending shoulder surgery.
Garland has 132 wins and a 4.32 ERA over 12 seasons. The Rockies have shown interest that is considered to be "lukewarm" in Garland.
Zduriencik-at this time we cannot commit a rotation spot to him or a roster spot. #Mariners—

Garland's locker is cleaned out and the name plate has been removed.—

Drug treatment for almost any behavioral condition is most useful when combined with behavior modification. However, determination of which drug or supplement might be indicated requires a diagnosis. Psychotropic drugs and natural alternatives can be useful for reducing the signs associated with phobic, panic, or chronic anxiety states and to improve trainability, especially in situations in which the pet is too anxious, fearful, or impulsive to learn. Drugs can have a dramatic effect when there is brain pathology or impulse dyscontrol; however, for the most part, they are adjunctive therapy for the treatment of anxiety or arousal that might contribute to a behavior problem and may be necessary for the welfare of the pet.
Evidence-based decision making is a means of providing the best information and treatment options. Treatment should be selected using the evidence combined with the clinician's expertise regarding the patient, client, and problem. In veterinary behavior there are very few drugs that have been adequately tested under rigorous, randomized, controlled trials. To date, the only behavioral drugs licensed for use in North America are clomipramine, fluoxetine, and selegiline for dogs, and the sedative acepromazine. For most other medications used in veterinary behavior, minimal data have been collected and much information is extrapolated from human literature. However, drug metabolism and receptor effects vary between species. This can lead to inaccurate assumptions with respect to dose, duration of effect, contraindications, and adverse effects.
The first choice should be drugs licensed for veterinary use. Not only do these drugs have established efficacy, adverse effects, contraindications, toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and safety profiles, but the technical support available from the manufacturer provides additional expertise, especially if adverse events arise. Other medications have been studied in pets, but evidence for their use and efficacy is often based on smaller trials, case report studies, or anecdotal reports of efficacy (see Drug Dosages for Behavioral Therapy in Dogs and Cats). Therefore, the practitioner should be knowledgeable about indications, recommended dosage, potential adverse effects, and contraindications before dispensing any of these medications. Drugs that are not licensed for use in the species should be dispensed with written guidelines, precautions, and informed consent. In addition, the owners should understand the expected outcomes that might be achieved. Compounding may be required to achieve an appropriate dose and formulation for administration; however, reformulation may alter a drug's pharmacokinetics, safety, efficacy, and stability. Recent studies on the use of transdermal preparations of behavioral drugs such as fluoxetine, amitripyline, and buspirone have found little to no absorption when comparing transdermal to oral dosing.

A physical examination and blood and urine tests should be part of a minimum database prior to dispensing drugs. For many of these drugs, several weeks may be required to achieve therapeutic effect, and prolonged treatment may be necessary to prevent relapse. However, with regular physical examinations and laboratory monitoring there may be few associated risks.
A variety of natural products have been used in the treatment of anxiety. Most of the evidence for efficacy is anecdotal. However, there are a number of studies supporting the efficacy of some of these products for the prevention and treatment of fear and anxiety, including canine dog appeasing pheromone, the feline pheromone Feliway®, l-theanine, α-casozepine, Harmonease® (containing Magnolia officinalis and Phellodendron amurense), as well as perhaps melatonin, aromatherapy, and l-tryptophan.

I am a pin up photographer and just had a semi-casual, Pin up Picnic themed wedding. This is the dress I wore to walk down the aisle and it was simple perfection. The fit is amazingly flattering, the length generous and the bodice is beautiful. I spiced it up with a sash across the waist. A full pettiskirt underneath is definitely a must (I spent more on my petti than this dress but it was so wort...

I love the look and fit of the dress. The color is definitely not as yellow as the main picture. You would think they would reshoot the photo to be an accurate representation. This will be my wedding dress and it is perfect in so many ways. However, the zipper is horrible. From the start it was sticking and didn't want to zip up. This is not due to the dress not fitting. The dress (once I got t...

i ordered this dress going by the pictures of the model in the white dress hoping that it was not the tan color of the first model. It is definitly a white color so i was happy about that when i received it. it is a pretty dress and i am excited to wear it. it is cotton so it is more of a casual dress. i am wearing it to my wedding reception with the pink crenoline slip underneath....
Amber Smith
Gorgeous dress! I bought it to wear for my outdoor August wedding, and it's light and crisp and will be just perfect. It is a little whiter than the picture on the model shows, but it's still a pretty light ivory, almost an almond color. I think it'll definitely need a crinoline slip underneath it... now I just have decide which color! :) It was super-wrinkled when it arrived, but that's nothing a...

I had contracted someone on Etsy to make a wedding dress for me. I had seen this one and I figured I wouldn't want cotton for my wedding dress. Well, after much frustration and the dressmaker not getting back to me I drove to LA with one of my bridesmaids and luckily they had one in stock in my size. I cannot tell you how awesome the dress is. Everyone at the wedding made such great comments on it...

Will it work? Probably. Will you get an exception if the code calls for 2"? Not likely. Inspectors typically will not deviate from what's "in the book", because they would then be liable if there were a problem at a later date.
I plan to install a toilet, wash basin, and a laundry tub in our basement. Will break out the floor and hook into 4" DWV line. The run from the main line to the toilet is about 5 1/2' feet. I figure that if I vent at the point where the new toilet drain line enters the 4" main line, I should be okay. Basin and tub will be directly above the main line. My question is about the vent pipe. According to the information I can find from on-line articles, it seems that a toilet draws 4 "fixture units", the basin draws 1 and the laundry tub 2. 7 altogether.
There is a single laundry drain pipe nearby that drains into another drain pipe (3") which then runs directly into the vertical stack next to the basement wall (can't use it for my purposes). The vertical stack runs directly into the 4" line under the basement floor. That 2" laundry drain is vented by a 1 1/2" pipe that goes to the roof. Also in that same small system is the kitchen sink (with dishwasher and disposal). The kitchen sink and laundry drains work excellently. The vent pipe is actually 2" where the kitchen drain hooks into it, but then it converts to 1 1/2 " as it turns to go through the floor upstairs. If only that were a 2" vent stack (which should be able to handle 16 fixture units..more than enough for everything)!
Am I risking too much by hooking the vent line for the new half bath and laundry tub into that 1 1/2" line? Will it do the job? It doesn't seem to pass code, but would it if I asked for an exception? I certainly can't run a vent pipe from the basement to the roof. I can get to a 2" vent line that is currently only serving a toilet and washbasin...but it will be very difficult to get to it (have to tear out some finished areas, including first floor vanity and wall, etc., and will have a very tight working area to get to the vertical stack above that first floor sink. Need some expert advice on this. Thanks.

As the president said in June 2013, we "don't have time for a meeting of the Flat Earth Society". We couldn't agree more. President Obama also asked if we have "the courage to act before it's too late". We think we do and that's why Clean Water Action and our million members are committed to working with the president, with Congress and State Legislatures...with anyone who is willing to join us to combat climate change before it's too late.
The new Showtime series,Years of Living Dangerously brings the storyof Climate Change home in ways that everyone can understand and share. It debuts on April 13th. Catch a sneak preview of the first episode right here.
The Obama Administration's announcement of a proposed rule to protect most streeams and wetlands is a huge step forward, and Clean Water Action is ready to make sure everyone hears about it. You can be sure our members, and anyone who cares about putting drinking water first, are ready to join us. Because, like Bob, our CEO says, "It's about time" – we've been fighting to put the Clean Water Act back together since the Bush Administration "broke" it in 2001.
Let the Obama Administration know you support the proposal to #ProtectCleanWater

Treating Canine Bladder Stones
Although there are other causes, dogs that do not drink enough water or those that are not allowed to urinate frequently are at a greater risk of forming bladder stones. Diet plays an important role, since excess amounts of magnesium, calcium, or phosphorus can lead to the formation of bladder stones.
Other causative factors are the pH balance and a urinary tract infection. In dogs, urine normally tends to be more acidic. Stones of different composition of minerals can form in both acidic and alkaline urine. Many medications like diuretics, cortisone, sulpha drugs, and tetracycline increase calcium levels in the urine that sets the stage for the formation of crystals and stones. Ammonium urate bladder stones are also among the many consequences of a liver shunt, a condition of abnormal blood flow to the liver.
The treatment of canine bladder stones depends upon the type, size and composition of the stones. Almost fifty percent of the bladder stones are struvite and are predominantly found in female dogs. Excessive struvite crystals are normally formed due to urinary tract infection. In cats, struvite stones are more common and are normally seen in housecats. A bacterial infection raises the urine pH to neutral or alkaline. Antibiotic therapy based on the type of bacteria and diuretics for flushing out urine help to resolve the problem.
The second most common type of bladder stones in dogs is calcium oxalate. These are mostly caused by increased levels of calcium in the blood stream. The only treatment available for these types of bladder stones is surgical removal. Ammonium urate stones are normally treated with allopurinol that checks the excessive formation of uric acid.
Many stones can be dissolved by feeding the dog with a special diet that ensures a reduced amount of certain minerals and proteins. A diet that effects urine pH and helps in increased urination to flush out the bladder is most effective.
For some types and sizes of bladder stones, surgery may be the only treatment option. Surgical removal of bladder stones is called cystotomy. It usually is successful in resolving the issue and providing relief from canine and feline urinary incontinence issues, too. However, surgery is only the first step, since stones are prone to recur. A struvite stone can recur within two weeks of being infected with bacterium that is urease-positive. Lifelong medication and increased attention to the type of diet is required even after surgery to ensure that the problem does not occur again.

On April 1 and 2, the Nevada Land Conservancy (NLC) will hold its annual event when it hosts a stop on The Banff Mountain Film Festival's U.S. tour at John Ascuaga's Nugget. This is the seventh year the NLC has hosted a stop on the festival's tour and the organization hopes it will be the seventh consecutive sell-out. NLC project director Becky Stock said the event started with one night in the Nugget's Celebrity Showroom, which holds about 650 people. The event's popularity prompted the addition of a second night, then a move to the larger Rose Ballroom where it continued to sell out its 1,400-person capacity, Stock said. This year, the films will be shown over two nights in the Rose Ballroom, complete with screens in every corner so viewers don't miss a moment.
The Banff Mountain Film Festival is put on by The Banff Mountain Centre, an arts, cultural and educational institution headquartered in Banff, Canada. According to the organization's Web site, www.banffcentre.ca, The Banff Mountain Film Festival began in 1986 as an outreach program to bring the festival to other communities.
"Festival organizers wanted to share the efforts and talents of the world's finest mountain filmmakers with a larger audience," according to the site. "Like the first festival in Banff, the tour began small: three cities across Canada. The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour brings mountain films to thousands of people who cannot make the annual trek to the Canadian Rockies."
After each year's festival winners are announced, the winners are shown all over the United States and the world.
"When I started coming to this event back in probably 1996 and when I moved to Reno I was shocked it wasn't available," Stock said. "I had to go up to Truckee to see it. When the Nevada Land Conservancy had the opportunity when (the festival was) no longer shown in Truckee to show it in Reno-Sparks, we jumped at it."
Stock said that many of the festival's Nevada viewers come every year and surveys show that their top interests are skiing, snowboarding, hiking, biking and camping. Banff festival organizers focus on small towns, she added.
"It doesn't matter to them how big you are," Stock said. "I think that they value longevity over numbers. They're very faithful."
Though the festival is a Canadian export, the films it honors come from all over the world. On each of the two nights of the fundraiser, as many as eight films will be shown, ranging in length from five minutes to an hour, Stock said. The exact films that will be screened have yet to be determined, but a check of the 2007 festival winners gives a peek at the possibilities.
The Banff Mountain Film Festival awards were announced on Nov. 4, 2007, and include a wide range of films that pay tribute to rugged outdoorsmanship and mountain culture. The festival's Grand Prize winner was a 2004 German film called "Death on Nanga Parbat." Again, according to the Banff Centre Web site, this documentary is about a tragic 1970 climbing expedition of brothers Reinhold and Gunther Messner to Nanga Parbat, the ninth highest mountain in the world, located in northern Pakistan. On the expedition, Gunther was killed in an avalanche during the descent and the film features footage and photos taken in the extreme conditions of the ascent, and interviews with participants of previous expeditions who talk for the first time on camera about the tragic event, allowing it to be seen in a new light.
A film that is likely to be screened during the stop in Sparks is Banff's 2007 Best Film on Mountain Sports and People's Choice Award winner, "20 Seconds of Joy." This film, made by German documentarian Jens Hoffman, depicts the adventure of 30-year-old Norwegian base jumper Karina Hollekim.
"I don't want to die, I want to live. I'm pretty good at running away, and this is my escape!" is how Hollekim describes her dedication to base jumping. The film accompanies her through many stages of her base-jumping career, until it comes to a sudden stop, changing all aspects of her life.
Most of the films at the festival are independent or foreign works that most people have never heard of, but in 2007 a major Hollywood production did get recognition at Banff. "Into the Wild," a film directed by Sean Penn, received the Special Jury Award. This film, based on a true story and the best-selling book by Jon Krakauer, is about Christopher McCandless, a top student and athlete who graduated from Emory University in 1992, only to abandon his possessions, give his entire $24,000 savings account to charity and hitchhike to Alaska to live in the wilderness.
"Rarely does Hollywood treat a delicate story with this level of integrity," Banff jury member Rob Frost said of the film. "We hope that Penn's work will lead the way for other Hollywood directors, and develop a taste for truth in their audience."
The NLC fundraiser will also include raffles between films, which will start at 7 p.m. on each night of the event. Proceeds from admission and raffle ticket sales helps raise money for land protection in the Truckee Meadows and the rest of Nevada, Stock said.
Assigned seating tickets are $16 in advance and $18 the day of the event, and tables of 10 are available for $160 in advance. Tickets are available through John Ascuaga's Nugget by calling 1-800-648-1177, and at REI at 2225 Harvard Way in Reno. VIP seating is also available for $40. A VIP ticket will reserve premier center seating, a fun "bag o' swag," a complementary beverage from Great Basin Brewing Company and a one-year membership in Nevada Land Conservancy. These special seats are available by calling Anna or Doug between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday-Friday at the Nugget, 356-3300 x4739. For information on tickets or how you can get involved in this unique event, call 851-5180 or visit www.janugget.com to purchase tickets.

Aaron has decided he hates eggs. Anything that is remotely eggy he can't stand. He says it makes him gag. Of course it doesn't occur to him as odd that some of his favorite things in life include pate choux and souffles - both of which are primarily eggs...
A few years ago I made a cheddar souffle as a special Valentine's Day meal. Of course, they have had souffle since then, but they request it whenever it pops in their little noggins. They needless to say were pretty excited about this months Daring Baker challenge.
Dave and Linda from Monkeyshines in the Kitchen chose Soufflés as our November 2010 Daring Cooks' Challenge! Dave and Linda provided two of their own delicious recipes plus a sinfully decadent chocolate soufflé recipe adapted from Gordon Ramsay's recipe found at the BBC Good Food website. Of course they did allow us to make our own recipe. And that is exactly what we did.
Inspired by our CSA pears, we went for a pear and blue cheese souffle. The beauty of this souffle is that it can be eaten as dessert or as a we did tonight, a light slightly sweet brunch or dinner dish. It is meant to be cooked until just wobbly, so it is soft and unxious. And really, this is a rather healthy souffle. I had no problem letting my kids go for a second one. The sweet pear plays off of the salty blue. Novel pairing? No, but it's a classic for a reason
I don't find souffles as fussy as many people say. The key is in the egg whites, they must be beaten to stiff peaks, but not over done so that they collapse. Fold gently but with purpose. Get the eggs whites down and you can have your souffle and eat it too! I find the discussions on souffle in Harold McGee's books very nice in dispelling old myths - you don't need to sugar the ramekin so it can climb, and you don't need to tiptoe in the kitchen.
One few other tip: Make sure your oven is preheated thoroughly before baking.
Pear Blue Cheese Souffle
- 400 g ripe bosc pears (about 2-3 large), halved, peeled and cored
- 1/3 cup good mild flavored honey (I used almond blossom)
- 2 cups apple juice plus one teaspoon red wine vinegar, or 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 t kosher salt
- 5 egg whites
- 4 egg yolks
- pinch of cream of tarter (optional)
- 1 1/2 ounces good quality blue cheese, crumbled
- 6 individual 6 oz. ramekins, buttered
- Bring honey, apple juice/vinegar or wine, and water to a simmer. Add pears and simmer until soft. The time will depend on the pears, but around 10 minutes.
- Remove pears and reduce the poaching liquid by boiling over medium heat until it is very thick and syrupy and measures about 2/3 cup.
- Meanwhile, puree the pears. Then place in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until it is very thick, starts to carmelize (brown a bit) and measures about 1 cup.
- Allow both the syrup and the puree to cool.
- When ready to assemble and bake, preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Bring a few inches of water to boil in a small sauce pan. In a metal mixing bowl that will nest on the top of the sauce pan without hitting the bottom, whisk together 1 TB of reduced syrup and egg yolks. Whisk constantly over the water, until the eggs start to thicken. Remove from mixing bowl to a large cool bowl to stop the cooking. Mix in the blue cheese.
- Place egg white and a pinch of cream of tarter in the very clean bowl of a stand mixer. Start on low, with the whisk attachment and gradually increase speed. When the eggs just barely hold soft peaks, add 1 1/2 TB of the reduced syrup and mix on high until they are shiny and hold stiff peaks.
- Place about a half cup of the whites in the yolks mixture, then fold in the rest of the egg whites. There should be no streaks in the batter, but fold carefully so you don't deflate the batter.
- Divide into ramekins, place ramekins on a baking sheet and place in the oven.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until slightly wobble. Remove and serve immediately. These are soft set souffles so they will deflate after a few minutes. You can re-inflate by placing back in the hot oven.

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

I searched and can't believe i couldn't find anything, must just be a bad searcher.
What would cause the hot water heater to run constantly. I can hear what sounds like water running and when I go into the garage I hear the heater running always. I have no known leaks in the house, all the faucets, toilets, shower etc. as well as outside faucets are not leaking. I can't find any puddles or wet spots in or out.... Don't see any water leaks near heater tank. Bathtub faucet had been leaking for quite a while but that's been fixed.
Its an electric. Heater is probably at least 10 years old.

Anand-Gelfand in the media
As we're approaching the start of the Anand-Gelfand World Championship match (the first game will be played next Friday), many media are publishing previews online or in their print edition. We give a number of links and a few quotes.
A big article about Anand-Gelfand in the Dutch newspaper NRC last Saturday
Yesterday the Indian magazine Daily News and Analysis (DNA) published a preview by Vijay Tagore. A number of Indian players give their opinion about the match. Here's a quote from the article:
Over the next three weeks, his credentials, competence and character will be come under the scanner. Does he have the wherewithal to win the title? Does he have the desire to do it again? And can he become one of the few men to become world champion five times?
Vladimir Kramnik is quoted about Anand as follows (without crediting the original source):
His main weakness is that he's no longer so young, and now he's also got a child. I can't imagine he's still going to work his socks off as before.
The article also reveals that GM Surya Shekhar Ganguly is still part of Anand's team. (And we have no reason to believe that Peter Heine Nielsen, Rustam Kasimdzhnov and Radek Wojtaszek have left the team!)
Vijay Tagore points out that Gary Kasparov (2000) and Alexander Alekhine (1935) were two overwhelming favourites that ended up on the losing side. Perhaps that's something Gelfand can draw even more motivation from...
The Indian Express nicely describes what kind of opponent Anand will be facing. The article, which discusses Gelfand's career and work ethic, starts with a famous story.
Circa 1972: Abram Gelfand, an engineer in Minsk, Soviet Belarus, got his five-year old son Boris a children's book on chess, Journey to the Chess Kingdom. When Gelfand junior asked his father a few days later if he could read something else, Abram understandably thought chess didn't hold much interest for the kid.
It was, of course, not so. In Gelfand's words: "My dad couldn't even imagine that I'd gulped down the whole book in one day and therefore wanted something new."
Last Saturday the sports pages of the Dutch quality newspaper NRC were dominated by a big article by Dirk Jan ten Geuzendam (NIC editor and host of the English-language commentary in Moscow), and especially by a photo montage of Gelfand and Anand by Fred Lucas (see the top of this article).
Like other media, NRC mentions the (almost unbelievable) fact that the last time Anand lost to Gelfand in a classical game is 19 years ago. This doesn't mean much, said the World Champion to Ten Geuzendam:
It's nice to talk about such statistics when you don't need to play a match. Boris is a ridiculously strong player so to underestimate him is never a good idea.
Gelfand doesn't believe his underdog status is much of an advantage.
I think Vishy is taking the match very seriously. But I do believe that more people believe that I can win, than before the Candidates Matches. But even this doesn't matter. It's what you do that matters.
The Jerusalem Post focuses on the lack of a chess culture in Israel, and therefore a lack of government support. Almog Burstein, general-secretary of the Israel Chess Association, told the newspaper that
Gelfand has a team of 4 or 5 coaches that he pays for mainly out of his own pocket, using the prize winnings from former tournaments to support his training.
The German Chessbase has an article in which Dagobert Kohlmeyer interviews Gelfand and Hans-Walter Schmitt, Anand's good friend and team member. It is revealed that over the past weeks Gelfand has been training in the Swiss Alps: the small town of Waldbach, Austria. (It was known already that Anand spent his time in Germany, where he has a house.) Gelfand says that he started preparing about a year ago, 'basically from the moment it was clear I was the challenger'.
I have studied my opponent's games thoroughly and hope that I have done everything what's needed for the match.
Gelfand also mentions that his regular seconds Alexander Huzman and Maxim Rodstein will be in Moscow, but won't reveal other names yet. Hans-Walter Schmitt reveals that the Anand team will be staying in the 5-star Hotel Baltschug Kempinski. He knows where the Gelfand team will stay, but only wants to say that it is not the same hotel. :-)
We already mentioned Haaretz's preview before here. It has a lengthy interview with sponsor Andrei Filatov, a friend of Boris Gelfand. Filatov doesn't want to play favorites when it comes to predicting the outcome of the match.
It's 50-50. I know Boris well. He lives and breathes and dreams chess, but he's also someone who takes an interest in other areas − like politics, art, sports.
About Anand he said:
He made an excellent impression on me. A lot of people, myself included, have the feeling that this is going to be a match of true gentlemen − great chess players, but also terrific people, which is something you don't always see.
This article was inspired by Eric van Reem's brief overview. A member of the Anand team, Van Reem is already in Moscow and he started a blog – recommended!
May we remind you...
...that ChessVibes will be providing on-the-spot coverage of the whole match, with photos, videos and reports. We'll hop on a plane on May 9th already, one day before the opening ceremony. And... did you vote already?

Interesting that so few give Gelfand a chance to win. I think his chances are closer to 35-40%. Anand is not so invulnerable. Anand should win, but that's why they play the match!
@noyb ''Interesting that so few give Gelfand a chance to win. I think his chances are closer to 35-40%. Anand is not so invulnerable. Anand should win, but that's why they play the match!''
And that's why your man Kasparov shd have played Anand again!! Shirov. Ponomariov. Kasimdzhanov.
My guess is your man did not play because the cards were no longer stacked in his favor.
I think Gelfand has an even chance of winning this. His preparation for the candidates was simply terrific.
1 year 11 months ago
Anand has become such a great force we have ever seen in the chess scene. Previous greats and heavyweights are already looking lightweight in front of him. I know this is not in the interest of many. So Anand should be mighty cautious about any dirty tricks that could unseat him. He should especially guard his preparation being stolen from his seconds, from his computers and even from him, and then passed on. It can all happen without Gelfand knowledge. I know it is too late to advise Anand on this but I only hope Anand has taken all necessary precautions including filling his computer with all sorts of junk lines. He should always play lines that he has fully prepared to the end that would at least guarantee him a draw. He should strieve for computer like precision like in the previous matches. In the event of an unfortunate loss or at a smell of foul play, Anand should be ready to give up his current preparation and switch to some unrevealed/unstored lines prepared on earlier occasions with overnight preparation. I think he should just juggle his openings and keep Gelfand guessing. It is a win or retire situation for Anand as the next cycle is diluted by challenger tournament.
But Anand, take whatever precautions you can and importantly stay fully focussed until the last move is made. It will then all be yours. My prayers and best wishes for a forever reign in the kingdom of chess!
we'll see some catalan games. I expect some lines like this 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 d5 4. g3 dxc4 5. Bg2 Bb4

I know we've hashed this out in the past, concluding that there are regional differences, but frequently "next Friday" would mean the Friday after "this Friday." I doubt anyone is relying on the headline for the start date, so file this one under "another trivial comment about the use of 'next' in week days."

if by some miracle gelfand wins, one will never hear the end of it.

No matter how many links you guys post, this is one of the most devaluated world chess championship matches I can remember. How I miss Karpov vs Kasparov matches! Please fide, bring back the candidates matches and the 24-game final match, no "poker" chess nor blitz / rapid deciders anymore!

Boxing championship involve lot of trash talks which help in giving the event a mega hype.
here also we should have the same. Like Anand saying I will thrash him hard

Does anyone know if the schedule given on the officlial site above are CET?

Anand will win by 2point margin. Best wishes to both players but in this long match, Boris wont match Anand

Our Under-21s will be looking to record back-to-back victories when we take on Aston Villa tonight at Villa Park, a game which can be seen live on Chelsea TV.
The Blues secured an impressive 1-0 win away at Sunderland a week ago, but having suffered a 2-1 defeat against tonight's opponents at Cobham in our previous game, Dermot Drummy's side will need to be at their best if we are to head back to the capital with three points.
Villa, under the guidance of their former midfielder Gordan Cowans, are going into the game in a rich vein of form, having beaten Sunderland, Chelsea and Blackburn Rovers in the space of a week.
The recent meeting between the two teams saw Villa take the lead through Danny Johnson, before Connor Hunte - who scored the winner against Sunderland last week - equalised seven minutes later.
The visitors restored their lead midway through the second half when Danny Devine headed home, and while the Blues had a wonderful opportunity to secure a point right at the death, Milan Lalkovic chipped his penalty over the bar.
Coverage begins on Chelsea TV at 7pm, with Gary Taphouse and Clive Walker bringing you live commentary of the game from 7.05pm.

Am I missing something with the Calendar?
I did a search back away in time and did not find anything on this so I thought I would post it. I am a new Mac user, came over because I am a happy user of iPhone and iPad. I have been very disappointed with the calendar app on the Mac. Getting to sue similar apps for such functions was one of my reasons for going Mac. The calendar app seems to allow only one way to create a new event and that is to type something in like "tennis on 3/2 at Sportsclub from 9am to noon". That is real pain as far as I am concerned. I would rather select a day and time and then type in just the event and place which the iPhone app allows. Why is this app so restrictive, allowing just one way to create events? Does not seem to fit the Apple easy to use model at all.
|Feb 12, 2013, 08:45 AM
I am not that proficient with Calendar, but I would do it like this:
Did the above help?

|Feb 12, 2013, 12:04 PM
Go to the date you want to insert the meeting. Double click on the time you want to schedule the meeting. A popup will appear where you can set the specific time, reminders, invite people, and type in what meeting. Calendar on Mac has the exact same functions as Calendar on iPhone and iPad.
|Aug 2, 2013, 09:13 AM
I saw your post and just downloaded BusyCal....where have I been??? I am so glad Calendar didn't work. This app is so much better.
Wishing you the best always

Not intuitive
Frequently the field for entering information does NOT pop up and most of the time you must right click to get information, in order to give the event a title
by adding that information in the blank field. There is no opportunity for labeling something in color to denote importance. I think it needs improvement but don't count on it.

You CAN create different color calendars, but it's true that a 3-level priority, like in the task list, would be appreciated. However iCal does work quite well for me most of the time.
If there's an Apple software that I don't really like, it would be iPhoto. Makes no sense for me to split photos by event as I am snapping pictures as subject comes, and subjects may be very different in one session.
Ubuntu and Mac OS X user means sacrilege both to Mac and GNU/Linux communities.

Truck topples but no one hurt in Naperville crash Tuesday
BY BILL BIRD firstname.lastname@example.com January 15, 2013 3:52PM
A truck and a car collided at the intersection of Diehl Road and Raymond Drive on Tuesday, January 15, 2013. The truck remain tipped over on its side as the car was towed away as Naperville Firefighters and a tow truck driver cleaned up the scene. | Steven Buyansky~Sun-Times Media

Updated: January 16, 2013 8:45AM
A large truck flipped onto its side Tuesday afternoon in a three-vehicle crash at Diehl Road and Raymond Drive on Naperville's far northwest side.
Police said their initial investigation showed the northbound black Isuzu box truck ran through a red light and struck a red Ford Mustang that was heading west at about 3:26 p.m. As the truck rolled, it hit a red four-door Saturn that was stopped for the light in the southbound lanes of Raymond. The crash scene is northwest of the McDowell Forest Preserve and adjacent to the Tellabs campus.
No injuries were reported, but the collision caused prolonged delays for motorists crossing the intersection for at least an hour after the accident.
Naperville police and several engines, trucks and pieces of apparatus from the Naperville Fire Department were sent to the scene, along with at least one ambulance. Members of the Police Department's Traffic Unit also were dispatched to begin crash reconstruction as part of their investigation, which remains in process.
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact investigators at 630-305-5966.

A talented hair stylist can be found here. – I have been going to Leslie Nolen at Rebecca's Hair Studio since 2005. I have never before gotten so many compliments on my hair. Leslie is on top of the latest styles, she is consistent and dependable. In six years, she has cancelled only one appointment with me and that was due to the birth of a child. (Totally understandable!)
I have gone to her for simple cuts, formal styles, highlights, straightener treatments and deep conditioning. I've never been disappointed in the level of service I've received from Leslie. The hair studio is clean and inviting.
Honestly, I give this place a four star rating only because of a lack of greeting when you walk in the door. It's nice to be acknowledged right away, but I also understand that these ladies stay consistently busy! Make an appointment with Leslie. You won't be disappointed.
Terrible Service – I gave this place 3 or 4 tries before giving up. Twice, I had appointments on Saturday morning and my stylist did not show up until half an hour later.
The last time this happened, she rushed me out the door after a quick 10 minute cut, with my hair wet, and tried to say it was my fault that we ran out of time. I'm never going back again.
Great atmosphere – I recently tried Rebecca's Hair Studio for the first time. I was very impressed! The salon was clean and the stylists there were very friendly. I wasn't greated immediately, but they were all very busy. I got an appointment for the following week and was very happy with the outcome. I got a new style and awesome hilights! Everyone has commented on how beautiful my hair looks, and that's a first! I definately recommend this place to everyone!

Students at FDNY High School for Fire and Life Safety organized a CPR training session for students
Along with reading, writing and arithmetic, a fourth "R" was taught at the FDNY High School for Fire and Life Safety on Monday, November 26; Resuscitation. The life-saving CPR class took place following a grant presentation by Taylor & Taylor Associates and Fireman's Fund Insurance Company to support CPR training.
Students from the FDNY High School, working closely with the FDNY Mobile CPR Training Unit, managed and planned a project to train every member of the school how to perform bystander CPR.
"Learning CPR is one of the most important skills you can master – at any age," Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano said during the ceremony. "The fact that these students are working to teach the entire school means there will be so many more motivated, dedicated young people in this city who now have the ability and the knowledge to save a life."
Taylor & Taylor Associates and the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company partnered to award the $17,990 grant to support the work of the FDNY Mobile CPR Training Unit.
(L to R): Chief of Department Edward Kilduff; President of Taylor & Taylor Associates, Scott Taylor; Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano; Vice President of Fireman's Fund, Glenn Skrynecki
Since its inception, the Mobile CPR Training Unit has trained over 67,000 people, including 2,800 middle and high school students. The unit offers free training by certified FDNY EMS instructors in all five boroughs.
"The hope is that by giving to the community and helping to train people like the students in this high school, we can make it a safer place to live for everyone" said Scott Taylor, President of Taylor & Taylor.
Since December 2006, Fireman's Fund has awarded the FDNY over $600,000 dollars. This grant by Taylor & Taylor brings their total donations to the Department to over $170,000.

brainstorming ideas we though of were:
- Webservices: many WS wizards use non-standard wizard UI/graphics (is this "cool", or is this distracting)?
- New Projects/Facets: once again
- Server tools, such as:
Consistent Installable runtimes (make api? suggest common approach in Eclipse, such as for datatools, for consistent user experience)
Server runtimes "effects" many places or properties, such as classpath, module dependancies, project build path. So, are there simpler ways? more consistent ways to set/modify these values?
- JPA: details view vs. property's view vs. outline view. Neil was quick to point out "they were first"

Bike ride up (and down) a volcano
A bicycle. One of the most beautiful spots on earth. 35 miles. 10,000 feet of climbing. Feelings of pain and exhaustion waiting to happen. If this is your idea of a great vacation then keep on reading.
Ever since picking up road biking a few months ago, I fantasized about doing a multi-day bike tour in the not so distant future. Adventure Cycling and REI (among others) offer a variety of tours with different difficulty levels, lengths and, of course, locations. In order to get in the mood (and training state) for such a trip, I felt it would be good to get a few longer and intense rides under my belt. The combination of great air fares and the fact that I found out that one can actually ride up Haleakalā on Maui, led me into booking a trip to the second-largest of the Hawaiian Islands for mid November. And so I found myself on a beach in Pāʻia in the early morning hours of November 15, in full cycling gear and my Specialized rental bike leaned against a tree nearby—it was time to rock n' roll.
The following is a description of my own experiences while riding up the volcano, however if you are looking for an even more detailed trip report, I encourage you to visit Mike Jacoubowsky's definitive guide for riding up Haleakalā.
Starting Out
The adventure started with tipping my toe into the water of the Pacific Ocean, a nice symbolic ritual and it underlines that this ride starts at 0 elevation. After a few pedal strokes, I left the small town of Pāʻia, the official start of the ride. For quite a while, the sides of the road are lined by farmland on one side and little housing and small businesses on the other. But with every minute, the area gets less and less populated. Due to the amount of rainfall this part of the island gets, there is green all around.
After riding for about 6.5 miles and climbing roughly 1,500 feet, I reached the town of Makawao, more than double the size of Pāʻia, with quite some shops and lunch places along Baldwin Ave. After the intersection with Makawao Road, Baldwin Avenue becomes Olinda Road which greeted me right away with a steep 13% climb of around 300 feet in length (which is probably the steepest section of the whole climb, so be relieved to get that out of the way at the beginning).
At the 8 mile marker, I made a right turn onto Hanamu Road, avoiding to continue riding on I-390 and eventually reaching a dead end. So not missing that turn is quite imperative. From Hanamu Road I connected to I-377 (or Haleakala Hwy) via the short Kealaloa Ave. For the next 4 miles, I admired the lush of green to both sides of the road and great views of West Maui, while I was climbing and climbing and climbing…. Conquering that stretch, the area showed signs of civilization again when I reached settlements that are part of the Kula region. The sign for Haleakala National Park, which I have been waiting for finally manifested at mile marker 14 and about 3,400 feet of elevation, directing me onto Crater Road and further up the mountain.

In April 2005, while working out at her college gym in Rhode Island, 22-year-old Glenna Kohl detected a hard, golf ballsize lump near her groin. She left the gym and went home to put ice on what seemed like a sports injury.
When her roommate, Courtney Caulfield, now 25, returned to their apartment that evening, Glenna asked her to feel the lump. "I told Glenna she probably pulled a muscle," recalls Courtney. "She wasnt overly worried; she seemed more upset about cutting short her workout."
But the lump hadnt gone away by the time she graduated from Salve Regina University the next month. So Glenna, then living at her parents' home in Massachusetts, visited her family doctor. Puzzled, she referred Glenna to a surgeon, who scheduled a biopsy.
A few days later, the surgeon handed Glenna and her family a terrifying diagnosis: The lump was melanoma, the deadliest of the three forms of skin cancer. When caught at an earlier stage, melanoma which typically begins as an irregular-shaped mole or a bump on the skin is highly curable. But by the time it reaches stage III, as Glenna's had, the cancer has spread beyond the skin and into the lymph nodes (that's why the lump she felt was in her groin, where there's a cluster of lymph nodes). Only about half the people with her level of stage III melanoma survive for 10 years.
The news came as a total shock. "No one in our family knew what melanoma was," recalls Glennas mother, Colleen Kohl. "We did a lot of crying."
Mystified about how the cancer had reached stage III without Glenna spotting any suspicious moles on her body, the surgeon eventually pored over her medical records. He found something disturbing: In high school, Glenna did have an irregular mole removed from her leg. A pathology report identified it as benign, but the surgeon tested it again. The lab had made an error: The mole was an early stage melanoma.
"We can't know for sure, but her odds of beating melanoma would have been greater had it been diagnosed earlier," says Donald Lawrence, Glennas oncologist and clinical director of the Center for Melanoma at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Cancer Center, in Boston.
The misdiagnosis infuriated Glenna's parents. But she didn't share their anger, says her mother. Even when the Kohls' lawyer confirmed they had a case of medical negligence, Glenna positive thinking and not one to dwell on the what-ifs agreed to let the lab settle out of court. "She wasn't resentful; she focused on getting better," says her father, Bob. "Back when we all first got the news, it wasn't a matter of if but how soon she'd be cancer-free."
