Iranian terror plot in US foiled
posted at 2:32 pm on October 11, 2011 by Ed Morrissey
The Department of Justice announced today that they have foiled an attempted terrorist attack — perhaps a wave of them — in the US. This time, though, the plot didn't originate with al-Qaeda, but instead with Iran:
FBI and DEA agents have disrupted a plot to commit a "significant terrorist act in the United States" tied to Iran, federal officials told ABC News today.
The officials said the plot included the assassination of the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the United States, Adel Al-Jubeir, with a bomb and subsequent bomb attacks on the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Washington, D.C.
Bombings of the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Buenos Aires, Argentina, were also discussed, according to the U.S. officials.
The stunning allegations come against a backdrop of longstanding tensions between Iran and the United States and Saudi Arabia. In the last year, Saudi Arabia has attempted to build an anti-Iran alliance to push back against perceived aggression by Iran in the region.
If true, would that not be an act of war? We're presently using drones in Pakistan and Yemen against al-Qaeda terrorist networks for plotting similar attacks, thanks to the AUMF from October 2001, even though we're nominally allied with both nations. If the government of Iran plotted attacks on American targets, that should require a response from the US, should it not — or do we send a signal that even attacks from actual nation-states fall under the rubric of law enforcement?
So far, it looks like the latter:
Arbabsiar and a second man, Gohlam Shakuri, an Iranian official, were named in a five-count criminal complaint filed Tuesday afternoon in federal court in New York. They were charged with conspiracy to kill a foreign official and conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, a bomb, among other counts.
The complaint also refers to another Iranian official but does not name him.
If we're charging an official of the Iranian government with complicity or worse in this plot, then it ceases to be a law enforcement issue and becomes a military and political issue instead. This isn't a case of espionage but of sabotage or worse, which would be an act of war by anyone's definition. If we're not willing to respond in kind, we then send a signal to hostile nation-states around the world that attacks on the US are low-risk, high-reward affairs — and we'd better get ready for an avalanche of them.

- Description
This is a High Mountain Lake located in the Island Park area in Idaho close to Yellowstone National Park. It is one of the Headwaters for the Henry's Fork of the Snake River and a famous fishing lake.
Surface elevation is 6472 feet (1973 m).
This Gigapan was taken from the top of Sawtell Peak, south of the Lake. Peak elevation is 9869 feet ( 3008 meters)
Shot with a Nikon D5000 and 300 mm lens.
Note! My batteries in the Gigapan Epic 100 ran out of juice halfway through shooting this scene. I replaced the batteries and continued shooting, however, I noticed some abberations in the middle part of the Gigapan when processing. I believe some images in this section are missing, but I have cleaned it up look "OK.". Has anyone taking Gigapans had a similar experience of losing the previous Gigapan shot location when changing batteries?
If I had known this might happen I should have started shooting the Gigapan again from the beginning. As it is I wish I had used a 200 mm lens to capture the mountain range above the lake.
Gigapan Comments (2)Toggle Minimize gigapan_comment
Ron, Thanks a lot for your comment and advice about how to correct for possible alignment problems after changing batteries. I tried to gauge the battery levels found I could usually shoot 5 gigapans in one day with one set of batteries. Somehow I misjudged on this set. (I found the new Eneloop rechargeables keep the charge longer and are more reliable than older types.)
I've found that the Epic100 gearing does a pretty good job of holding the pitch (up/down position) of the camera during a battery change but the yaw (right/left position) is susceptible to movement while you're removing and replacing the batteries. When I change batteries I make sure I know what was centered in the last image taken and then recenter that before resuming.

If you can see this, it worked
For values of "this" which you don't care about and can't see, but my hacky homebrew blogging engine now watches a bare git repo using inotify and runs a checkout/refreshes its content when it sees changes. I'm not sure it wouldn't have been simpler just to make it die and then use a, y'know, shell script or something to run a git pull before restarting the server, but I did it this way because ZERO DOWNTIME.
Anyway. You don't see and can't care, or possibly vice versa. But the previous Heath Robinson stuff with git hooks wasn't working now that the bare git repo is owned by someone other than the uid that runs the http daemon, so a different Heath was called for.

Nieky Holzken, sporting Yokkao trunks, made his successful return to the boxing ring yesterday after about a year away. Holzken stepped into the ring in the Netherlands at Golden Glory Helmond against Ismael Altintas, whom he made short work of in round two. Holzken was proudly sporting his Yokkao trunks in the ring as he moved on to 5-0 as a professional with Yokkao promoter Stefania Picelli and BeNeLux Yokkao distributor Peter Wetzer at ringside to provide support.
It looks like Holzken is over that injury from the car accident and might be back in kickboxing action in the very near future as well, with us knowing that he has his eyes on Joseph Valtellini and that GLORY Welterweight Championship. Yokkao's next event is a double-header, Yokkao 10 and 11 on October 11th. Expect to see Liam Harrison, Kongsak, Pakorm, Jordan Watson, Piscitello, Crice and more in action on October 11th.
The only way to watch this event was to be there in person, it will not be released online or on TV until August, but we found some videos and a few of the results. Andy Souwer beat Kido again, this time in the extra round, they both received yellow cards, and even a red cards during the fight, for what we think was holding, but we aren't positive and even Souwer himself wasn't sure. Nagashima got DQ'd for catching the leg and administering an illegal sweep from which Zanolini could not continue.
Here are the main fight results, we will update more as we receive them.
Andy Souwer VS Yasuhiro Kido - WINNER: Andy Souwer (Decision Extra Round.)
Danilo Zanolini VS Nagashima Jienotsu Yuichirou - WINNER Danilo Zanolini (Disqualification)
Samo Petje VS Hinata - WINNER Samo Petje (KO 2nd Round)
Murat Aygun VS Raomaru - WINNER Murat Aygun (KO 1st Round)
Zelg "Benkei" Galesic VS Uehara Makoto - WINNER Uehara Makoto (KO 1st Round)
Geo Fairtex VS Komiyama Kousuke - WINNER Geo Fairtex (Decision)

text: For what a man had rather were true he more readily believes. Therefore he rejects difficult things from impatience of research; sober things, because they narrow hope; the deeper things of nature, from superstition; the light of experience, from arrogance and pride, lest his mind should seem to be occupied with things mean and transitory; things not commonly believed, out of deference to the opinion of the vulgar. Numberless in short are the ways, and sometimes imperceptible, in which the affections colour and infect the understanding. [Francis Bacon, "Novum Organum," 1620]

Serves 6 to 8
Serve this creamy, rich aromatic stew over brown rice; to jazz things up, enrich the grains with butter and lime zest. Since different brands of curry paste feature different levels of salt and heat, taste and adjust the seasoning accordingly. For speedier prep, buy prechopped sweet potatoes and feel free to skip the fresh ginger, lemongrass, and garlic.
Place two layers of paper towels on a plate, then top with the tofu, then another two layers of paper towels, and a large plate. Leave for about 15 minutes to drain. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes. In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar and curry paste. Add one-third of this mixture to a zip-top, gallon-size plastic bag. Add the tofu and gently coat it with the marinade, using your hands to massage it. Close the bag and refrigerate.
Put the sweet potatoes into the slow cooker, then mix with another third of the sugar-curry mixture and all of the salt and pepper. Heat 2 Tbs. of oil in a 10-inch, heavy sauté pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the ginger, lemongrass, and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the final third of the sugar-curry mixture, plus the flour (and the remaining 1 Tbs. of oil if the pan is very dry), and cook, stirring, until no white flour is visible, no more than a minute. Add the coconut milk, pumpkin, lime juice, and stock, and bring to a boil over high heat, whisking vigorously to remove any lumps. Cook until smooth, thickened, and some bubbles appear, about 4 minutes. Pour over the sweet potatoes.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the sweet potatoes are very tender but still retain their shape, about 4 hours. Stir in the chard and marinated tofu, cover, and cook on high until the chard is tender, about another 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

2000 Ford F-350 Super Duty - Project Plain Jane, Part 3Posted in Project Vehicles on July 1, 2002 Comment (0)
Regular readers of Four Wheeler will recall our occasional project girl, Plain Jane, a 2000 Ford F-350 Super Duty carrying a Power Stroke diesel under her hood. We havent heard from Jane since March and June of 2001, when she received a five-inch Fabtech lift, ARBs, a gear swap, and 36-inch rubber. Since then, Jane hasnt been asleep, shes just been dutifully performing as a daily driver, a ranch work truck, and tow rig for a 9,000-pound enclosed trailer. She hasnt changed much, except for a few dings and scratches received while racking up 40,000 trouble-free miles. We like to think that they give her personality. Her personality got the biggest shakeup yet, though, the day the wake-up call came.
When Four Wheeler editor Jon Thompson called to say it was time to wake up Project Plain Jane, I dont think he realized just how much life this waking up would amount to. I always felt Janes Power Stroke made her pretty spry, and never realized she had been performing her tasks while half asleep. After her visit to Gale Banks Engineering in Azusa, California, where she received Banks whole-enchilada PowerPack kit, she was a changed womanahemtruck.
More power is always nice and, I must admit, despite Janes more-than-adequate stock performance, Id more than once eyed ads for chips and/or larger exhaust systems and the power gains they claimed. One reason Id shied away from installing any of them was my concern over the trucks exhaust-gas temperature (EGT). Living and towing heavy loads in mountains above 5,000 feet, Id seen my pyrometer gauge touch the dont-go-above-zone of 1,250 degrees more than once. Since more fuel equals more heat, installing a chip that just feeds the engine more fuel seemed like a recipe for trouble. But a phone conversation with Rich Shahoian at Banks convinced me that the Banks whole-system approach to increasing power was a safe way to go.
Gale Banks Engineering has been in the business of making power gains from both gas and diesel engines for more than four decades. The companys philosophy is to maximize engine airflow. An internal-combustion engine is just a big air pump. Getting maximum air into it, and back out of it, will result in it producing the most work. Extensive lab work, using highly sophisticated techniques for testing and identifying engine airflow restrictions, allows Banks engineers to offer products that maximize the airflow capabilities of a given engine while keeping temperatures and component stress to a minimum. Banks Engineering offers its power enhancement kits in various levels. Each level builds upon the last, allowing you to build up your truck in stages. Besides the products discussed in this article, Banks also offers staged buildups for older, pre-Super Duty Fords, as well as lots of goodies for Dodges and Chevys, both gas and diesel. For a 2000 Super Duty diesel like Jane, Banks offers four levels of upgrades.
The base level Git-Kit claims a 40hp gain and an extra 71 lb-ft of torque by replacing the restrictive, backpressure-producing stock muffler and tailpipe with a free-flowing acoustic-tuned muffler, mandrel-bent four-inch stainless-steel tailpipe, and a polished 5-inch tip. The engine-management computer is then reprogrammed with an OttoMind module that provides just enough fuel delivery for the exhaust flow gain.
Move up to the Stinger and you add a 3 ½-inch turbine outlet pipe, four-inch intermediate pipe, a K&N air filter, a Big Head wastegate actuator which optimizes the turbos boost, and pyrometer and boost gauges to monitor the claimed 57 hp and 110 lb-ft gains. The OttoMind module is calibrated to match the fuel curve to these airflow enhancements. Next step up the Banks Power ladder is the Stinger-Plus, which claims 79 hp and 147 lb-ft of torque over a stock Power Stroke. To the basic Stinger package is added a Quick-Turbo turbine housing which allows for less backpressure between the combustion chamber and the drive side of the turbo. This eliminates excessive backpressure at higher airflow levels and, overall, improves acceleration from idle to redline. Also included is a reconfigured compressor wheel for the turbos intake turbine. Again, the OttoMind is tweaked to maximize the gains offered by the Quick-Turbo. Finally, we come to the whole-hog system, the PowerPack, to which we treated Plain Jane. Along with all the goodies offered in the other three kits, the PowerPack includes the Banks Techni-Cooler intercooler and high-flow air ducting. The Techni-Cooler is a replacement high-throughput intercooler with an improved tube-and-fin heat-exchanger design. It minimizes boost pressure drop while also supercooling the boosted intake air before it is rammed into the combustion chamber. A correspondingly programmed OttoMind module completes the package, allowing a 99-02 Power Stroke to produce up to a claimed 91 extra hp and 200 lb-ft more torque than stock. Once we decided to go with the Banks PowerPack kit, I drove Jane to Banks 7-acre campus in Azusa, California, so she could receive expert installation of her enhancements by the guys who designed them. Jane would be dynoed before and after so we would have real-world figures of her specific personal gains. The photos and captions that follow tell the story of Janes transformation, and the Dyno Box and graphs show the results. However, nothing on paper can express the seat-of-the-pants feeling that 660 lb-ft of torque gives you when beating a new DuraMax up a 7-percent grade with 10,800 pounds in tow. Or being able to accelerate, in Sixth gear, all the way up the longest hill out of the L.A. basintowing 6,500 pounds. At 75 mph, I had to back off as traffic kept getting in the way. Jane has had a wake-up call, big time. It seems the more you load her or lug her, the harder she pulls. Yet driving around town empty, she is just as docile as she was when stock, leading me to believe her newfound muscle is not putting undue strain on the rest of her drivetrain. Her power band is very linear. There is no slam-you-in-the-seat acceleration, just a steady, pull-like-a-freight-train rush that never lets up. And then theres the business of her EGT reading. Because the Banks modifications address the entire airflow system, Janes exhaust temperatures now are 200 degrees lower across the board. These readings only confirm suspicions that the stock Ford setup is inefficient and restrictive. Janes Power Stroke seems much happier with all her horses awake and running free. Since the operation, Ive put just over 3,000 miles on the truck. More than 2,000 of those were towing something. Most recently it was a 30-foot, three-axle trailer with a truck and a car on it to the Mexican borderan 18,180 GVWR. Mileage with a load like this is hovering around 10 mpg at 75 mph. Jane used to average around 9 mpg at that speed with lesser loads. This gain seems to be in keeping with Banks claim of a 14-percent mileage gain. As of this writing, I havent been able to keep a trailer off Jane long enough to determine if there has been a gain in mileage when empty. I may never know, as its too much fun pressing that right pedal down.

The European Chronic Disease Alliance (ECDA) sent today an open letter to the President of the European Commission, José Manuel Barroso.
The letter expresses concerns about the lack of political will and action regarding chronic diseases from the leadership of the European Union. The ECDA also stresses that inaction will have disastrous outcomes – both in terms of Healthy Life Years lost and continued strains on healthcare systems. Chronic diseases cost economies immensely, through medical and social care needs, as well as through impact of premature retirement and reduced work force productivity.
Robust action to prevent and control chronic diseases will not be an emergency bailout but a long-term investment in the most valued primary resource: people.
IDF Europe, as a member of the ECDA, supports the letter and calls on its membership to disseminate the document.

Born on a small hillside farm in West Virginia, the youngest of eight children, Irene Brand still lives in the same community where her parents were born and where her ancestors settled in the 1840s. Her education started at the age of four in a one-room school.
Irene graduated from high school at the age of fifteen. During her four years of high school she walked five miles daily, round-trip, to catch the school bus. Irene didn't start college until she was in her 30s. She received two degrees from Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia.
Early in life, Irene had two dreams—to become a schoolteacher and to be a fiction writer. These dreams came true when, in 1966, she became a social studies teacher at Point Pleasant Junior High School, and in 1984 when her first novel, A Change of Heart, was published. Irene retired from teaching in 1989 to devote her time to writing.
It took many years for Irene to break into the publishing field. Her first manuscript, Freedom's Call, was rejected by eighteen publishers. One publisher kept the manuscript for one-and-a-half years; another publisher intended to publish, and even edited the text, but finally returned it because they couldn't find the proper niche for the book. The book was released in 1990 by a publisher who had rejected the manuscript two years earlier. In the meantime, Irene had had other books published.
Irene has had many amusing incidents during book signings. Appearing in a mall bookstore, one boy approached her and asked if she was acquainted with Robert Louis Stevenson—one of his favorite authors.
At another autographing session a woman came and, rather than approaching Irene, she stood to one side and stared at her. When she had a break, Irene asked the woman if she could help her. The lady responded, "I don't really have time to read, for I have seven children, but I heard on the radio that you were going to appear here. I'd never seen an author, and I wanted to know what one looked like." In a radio interview, prior to a book signing, the emcee asked, "Have you ever read any of your books?"
Irene married Rod Brand in 1956, and they plan to observe their Golden Anniversary in April, 2006. The Brands have traveled to thirty-five foreign countries, the last one Ireland in 2001, being there on traumatic 9/11. They have also visited all fifty states. With the publication of her 2005 October and December books, Irene will have thirty-seven titles in print, with two more under contract for 2006.
Irene may be contacted by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit her Web site.

In this segment we are going to break down a few different Purrs. Scoot is going to show you a couple different ways to run them (in slow motion) so you can hear the different pitch changes in the purr. The pitch change is very important to the meaning of what the purr is telling that Tom. The pitch change, the speed and the pauses between the clucks and purrs are important, birds purr quite a bit, but unless your very close to them you won't hear it, and each purr has a meaning to it. Purring on a pot call, it will make a big differance if you purr straight down or sideways on your call, the pitch in the call will make a differance in the meaning of your purrs.
Plain Purr = The plain purr is used as a hen is feeding or just moving through the woods as she is very relaxed and happy with her surroundings. It tells the Tom that everything is fine here. ///=pause
These are a very soft purr with no change in pitch.
Breeding or Sex Purr = This Purr is used when a Tom is coming in and the hen is getting excited. It has a pitch change that tells that Tom to get his tail feathers over here quick. It statrs out at a lower pitch and raises at the end of the purr, it's a mid-volume purr, not as soft as the plain purr because that hen is getting excited and as she does her pitch and volume changes. There isn't a pause between the clucks and purr at the beginning and end of the purr, it's all done in one motion.
This Purr works great on locked up birds, and tells that Tom to get his tail feather over here quick, it's also used right after the Breeding Yelps.
Fighting Purr = This Purr is pretty self explanatory, it's used by both hens and Toms. It's a loud Purr that will change in speed between Purrs, and will have anywhere from 3 to 10 Purrs in the call.
This call is effective on hung up birds as well as birds right on the roost.

The number one New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Kellerman's "psychology skills and dark imagination are a potent literary mix" (Los Angeles Times), and this intensely thrilling blend has never been so powerful as in the acclaimed author's new novel of murder and madness among the beautiful dreamers, seductive predators, and doomed innocents adrift in the glare of Southern California's eternal sunshine.
A series of horrifying events occur in quick succession in the same upscale L.A. neighborhood. A backyard renovation unearths an infant's body, buried 60 years ago. And soon thereafter in a nearby park, another disturbingly bizarre discovery is made not far from the body of a young woman shot in the head. Helping LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis to link these eerie incidents is brilliant psychologist Alex Delaware. But even the good doctor's vast experience with matters both clinical and criminal might not be enough to cut down to the bone of this chilling case - and draw out the disturbing truth.
Backtracking six decades into the past stirs up tales of a beautiful nurse with a mystery lover, a handsome, wealthy doctor who seems too good to be true, and a hospital with a notorious reputation - all of them long gone, along with any records of a newborn, and destined for anonymity. But the specter of fame rears its head when the case unexpectedly twists in the direction of the highest echelons of celebrity privilege. Entering this sheltered world, Alex little imagines the macabre layer just below the surface - a decadent quagmire of unholy rituals and grisly sacrifice.
Before their work is done, Alex and Milo, "the most original whodunit duo since Watson and Holmes" (Forbes), must confront a fanatically deranged mind of such monstrous cunning that even the most depraved madman would shudder.
©2013 Jonathan Kellerman (P)2013 Random House Audio
I don't know about you, but why are there so so so many 5 star reviews. I LOVE books, but so few are 5 star.
"Standard Milo and Alex"
If you have read the series and enjoyed it despite the formulaic story lines then there is no reason to stop now!
This outing wasn't one of the best, still entertaining in a cheesy way. There are very obvious parallels to a current actress that make you wonder whether Kellerman is aiming for a movie deal. The crime was bizarre in keeping with the entire series premise, but it feels like this one was a bit of a stretch.
If you have never read any of the series do not make this your first, read When the Bough Breaks it is the first in the series and justifies how you can enjoy Guilt, an eventual watered down version of Milo and Alex.
"Kellerman does not disappoint. Another great read."
Another great read by Jonathan Kellerman. Love John Rubinstein performance - does Milo Sturgis and Alex Deleware so great! Good plot - always keeps you guessing till the end. Good cast of characters with a few story lines going on. Very much enjoyed Guilt. In fact I could not stop listening - kept me up till the wee hours of the morning so...warning...make sure you have plenty of time to listen or have the will power to hit "pause". Highly recommend Guilt. If you have not read a Kellerman novel before, this is a good one to start with - gives you enough background on the two main characters so you don't feel you have missed out. Not sorry at all I pre-ordered this book. And, unlike some popular authors, Kellerman still delivers a long (time wise) novel even though his books are wildly popular. (Some authors give you only 6-7 hours per book.) Again, a great addictive read.
Avid audio book listener with over 1600 books in my library!
"HUGE Disappointment"
Don't waste your credit! I have been a Jonathan Kellerman fan from the first Alex Delaware novel. Read or listened to them all. This book was so boring if I could get my credit back I would. The story is weak with absolutely NO excitement and very little of the humor that is normally interjected between the characters. I certainly hope Jonathan was just having a bad year and not starting to get stale in his writing.
"Alex & Milo at it again!"
Second listening for me and it held my interest the whole way. Good story (a little dated, but, hey…) Excellent performance by Mr. Rubenstein. Thoroughly enjoyed this book!
"Straight-forward Mystery"
I have pretty much listened to all the Alex Delaware series to date and this one ranks in the Top 10.
In this book it has to be Delaware because he carries the story line.
It would not be a Delaware book without John Rubinstein.
No. But it would have been less disjointed. Breaking it up makes you lose pertinent facts.
I liked this book mainly because I am an Alex Delaware fanatic. The one thing that mystifies me is why Kellerman insists on giving you a complete run down of each person's wardrobe. It just seems a little insignificant and has no real bearing on the end result.
T.Y. jane
"boring and slow"
Intensity in storyline
The thrill was left to the end chapters.
Maybe one more time to see if a different storyline would help
I 've always liked the how well Alex and Milos got along
"Loved it!"
I really enjoy the author's use of words. It pleases my ear and makes me smile. The descriptions of the places and the way the characters are developed have great appeal. I went back and replayed several chapters when I first listened to the audiobook, and will undoubtedly listen to the whole thing again.
The plot developed nicely and kept me interested and entertained, which is why I finished it in two days. Actually I would have done it more quickly, but forced myself to slow down as I knew I would be disappointed when the book was finished.
Love Rubenstein's narration - they really make these books come alive. The individual character voices are always recognizable, and word flow and timing are excellent. Rubenstein's narration is one of the things I most enjoy about the Alex Delaware novels, and when I see that a new book is out, that's the first thing I check.
I've read all the Alex Delaware books and this was one of my favorites.
"Disappointing !"
I found a very weak story line.....too much repetition.....and do readers really need a detailed description of each article of clothing each character is wearing ....does this add to the story line....don't waste a credit on this one !
"Sometimes a Review is Just a Review"
When I ordered Guilt I looked at the review promanently displayed on the page with the synopsis of the story. I have read all of the Alex Delaware books and was so skepical of reading (listening) to this one when the reviewer said it was the last Alex Delaware she would read. I know the subject matter was delicate but I thought this was one of the bext of J. Kellerman's works.
All my favorite characters were there and acting appropriately (true to character). The stroy was a fascinating one and quite convoluted which adds to the mystery. John Rubinstein is a great reader as Alex and Milo and I have trouble identifying with him in some of the TV dramas where I see him as he is still my Alex.
Dissappointments - yes, one major one. I don't want to give it away to readers so I must say the quilty party was not a well developed character. Usually the detectives or someone has more contact with this person in order for the character to be deceptive and the truth revealed. Not so here and It made a hole in the story for me.
Scott Brick puts me to sleep. Narrator's narrator be damned.
"These characters have become family to most of us"
Yes the formula is played out. Yes John Rubenstein always sounds like an old man with a cough , no matter the character. But for some reason it's always a pleasure finding out what Alex and Milo are up to. And just like most of you out there,I read these books just because they are there.

Latest Headlines is home to all the latest, up to the minute news headlines from The Wall Street Journal in a streaming continuous headline experience.
By Paul Ziobro
A.G. Lafley is back at home as Procter & Gamble's chief executive. But he won't be replanting roots in Cincinnati.
Mr. Lafley, who moved to Florida after retiring from P&G a few years ago, plans to keep his permanent abode in Sarasota, where he lives with his wife and near his father. P&G is paying $200,000 to cover a temporary residence for Mr. Lafley in the consumer-products company's hometown, according to P&G's annual proxy filing released Friday.
The arrangement puts Mr. Lafley in the club of big-name CEOs with ultralong commutes. The group has included Edward Whitacre, who resided in San Antonio but kept a Detroit-area apartment when he ran General Motors Co. and Ron Johnson, who as J.C. Penney Co.'s CEO flew each week between the retailer's Plano, Texas, headquarters and his home in California.
P&G is a company deeply associated with its hometown, and the living arrangement likely marks the first time a sitting P&G CEO isn't keeping a permanent residence near the company's headquarters in Cincinnati.
P&G requires that its CEOs live locally, company spokesman Paul Fox said Friday. Mr. Lafley technically will be doing so. He is currently staying at a nearby hotel, a person familiar with the matter said.
In May, Mr. Lafley returned to the company to replace Bob McDonald, who stepped down this summer after P&G posted lackluster results during his four years on the job. His exit ended a brief retirement for Mr. Lafley, who turned 66 in June.
Mr. Lafley isn't expected to stay in his role for more than a couple of years. One of his chief tasks is identifying a successor, likely from one of several internal candidates he recently promoted to more prominent roles.

It's hard to believe given the affluence of America that so many people grow up in our community and across the country unable to read. Imagine if you couldn't make out the words on a menu, figure out what it says on your prescription label or even read a birthday card from your children. It is estimated that 225,000 adults in our metro are functionally illiterate. They can't do these things. Recently, Nick Haines had the privilege to host the Power of Reading Event for Literacy KC, a Kansas City organization that uses volunteer tutors to help adults learn to read. Several of those adults who have overcome great odds shared their stories in front of a large audience at the Plaza Branch of the Kansas City Public Library.
You can become a tutor if you can spare two 90 minutes sessions a week. Training is provided.

Collection Title: Puddles
Materials & Technique: sculptures, human and synthetic hair, perspex, wood
Sadie Chandler's irreverent Puddles is a work in five parts. The artist presents glazed compositions of human and synthetic hair―collected from hairdressers, friends and family, from wigs found in opportunity shops, costume stores and wigmakers' studios―elaborately arranged in frames. The strands of hair are gathered by texture and hair type, composed in an overall pattern, and confined within the black surrounds: there are long brown tresses, and wound grey curls. Individually each object conjures images of nineteenth-century mourning brooches, much enlarged.[1] Positioned together on the gallery wall, the interrelatedness of the components is emphasised and Chandler's creation becomes an almost jigsaw-like puzzle. Does the title of the work imply a melting mass form or, perhaps, liquid droplets from above? Puddles adopts the guise of geometric modernism to draw the viewer in, only then revealing its true materiality to the eye. At once repellent yet intriguing, we are impelled to examine closely the locks, tufts and wisps that adorn the gallery wall―if only to be sure that our eyes have not deceived us.
Chandler's work playfully contravenes the legacy of modernism. Barbara Creed has argued that, 'Although the male Surrealists of the 1920s and 1930s advocated the liberation of woman from the home, in their art and theoretical writings they continued to idealise woman as Muse.'[2] Employing the device of anthropomorphism―investing inanimate objects with human emotions, characteristics or behaviours―(mostly male) artists, such as André Breton, Salvador Dali and Luis Buñuel used hair to create objects that expressed irrationally emotional subconscious desires that were keenly informed by Freudian theories of fetish and castration. In this milieu, Chandler's work, with hair intricately presented for view, is defiantly confronting and incongruously comic. Rather than presenting the female as subject, Chandler's work signifies woman as creator.

[1] In 1861, following the death of her husband Prince Albert, Queen Victoria entered a deep period of mourning, with citizens of the British Empire experiencing her loss and grief. To commemorate her beloved, Victoria commissioned jewellery made from locks of Albert's hair ―intricately knotted and woven to form elaborate designs for brooches and rings, bracelets, necklaces and watch fobs

This was the one they had been waiting for — the players, parents and fans alike. After beginning the season 0 - 4, the Bobcats of Robert F. Munroe won their first game of the 2012 season Friday night at Godby Field. And they did it in grand fashion, scoring a season-high 41 points and avoiding the turnover bug that has plagued them through the first four contests.
The Munroe volleyball team picked up two wins last week to move to 8-3 on the season.
Cats over TCS
On Monday night they dropped Tallavana Christian 25-5, 25-14, 25-18 winning three straight in the Lion Den in Havana.
Olivia Fletcher and Mollie Edwards had five kills each. Audrey Thomas continued to show why she was leading the Big Bend in aces with 10 service aces. Kaitlyn Sirmons added nine aces and Kadejah Glynn five.
Setters Madalyn Pappadakis and Sirmons combined for 11 assists.
Cats over Grace
Times Sports
Friday night, the East Gadsden High Jaguars traveled to Jacksonville and proved they are indeed ready for the big dance. The Jaguars beat Andrew Jackson Tigers 41 – 6 in a 4A matchup of North Florida's new emerging prep football stars.
The Bobcats of Robert F. Munroe were bested by the visiting Knights of Rocky Bayou last Friday at Godby field by the score of 41-18.
While the 0-4 Bobcats scored their season high, they also surrendered the most points they have allowed in four outings.
The game began on a positive note for RFM as they took a 6-0 lead when Myles Edwards powered over the right side of the line from 3 yards out, culminating a drive that featured the rushing efforts of both Edwards and Jordan Curry.
The Munroe volleyball team dropped both matches this week. The team lost away games to district rival John Paul II on Tuesday and North Florida Christian on Thursday.
In Tuesday's match, the Lady Cats lost in three straight games by scores of 25-13, 25-16 and 25-7. Statistically, Mollie Edward had five kills and Audrey Thomas four aces. Kaitlyn Sirmons added nine digs and three aces.
On Thursday, NFC was looking to avenge a three-game loss to Munroe in early September.
Times Sports Correspondent
Friday night lights featured a clash of the East Gadsden High Jaguars and the Jefferson High Tigers.
The first play from scrimmage Jarrell Reynolds exploded on a 57-yard touchdown run. The Tigers controlled the ball for 9 minutes of a 12-minute quarter to create an excellent test for the defensive coordinator of the Jaguars. By halftime, the Jaguars' Pedro Popoca had nailed a 37-yard field goal and the special team capitalized on a miscue by the Tigers' punt return player, giving the Jaguars an easy recovery in the end zone.
The Gators of Wewahitchka, led by halfback Jalyn Addison's 171 rushing yards and three touchdowns, roared to a 30-8 victory over the visiting Bobcats of Robert F. Munroe this past Friday evening.
Jordan Curry and Myles Edwards, with 13 and 10 tackles, respectively, anchored the Bobcat defense as they held the Gator offense in check for the first half after allowing a score on the opening drive. The Bobcat offense moved the ball effectively on the ground in the first half, but turned the ball over to thwart their scoring opportunities.

Life In Beijing
The city of Beijing, capital of the People's Republic of China, has a long history spanning over 3,000 years. With the exception of two brief periods (the mid-12th century and from 1928 to 1949), Beijing has remained as China's capital.
Beijing has been the seat of power for Kublai Khan, the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, and the early Republic of China, to name a few. Beijing is both a city and a municipality; its area spans nearly 6,500 square miles. Its population is estimated around 22 million people, of which 30 percent are migrant workers from the countryside.
Beijing has classic architecture standing side-by-side with distinctive global design. It holds a number of China's symbolic attractions, including the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, the Beijing Opera, Tiananmen Square, the Temple of Heaven, Confucius Temple, the Ming Dynasty Tombs, and The Great Wall of China, some 75 miles northwest of the city.
The language spoken in Beijing is Mandarin ("Putonghua" based on the Beijing dialect). Beijing is a transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads, and motorways passing through the city. Mountains surround it on three sides.

3.52: Properties of Acids
Look at the boy in the photo above. You can tell by the expression on his face that lemon juice tastes sour. Lemon juice is an acid, and all acids taste sour. They share certain other properties as well. You will learn more about acids and their properties in this article. For a musical introduction to acids and related concepts, watch the video at this URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTLiJE-j1-I
What Are Acids?
Acids are ionic compounds that produce positive hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. Ionic compounds are compounds that contain positive metal ions and negative nonmetal ions held together by ionic bonds. (Ions are atoms that have become charged particles by gaining or losing electrons.) An example of an acid is hydrogen chloride (HCl). When it dissolves in water, it separates into positive hydrogen ions and negative chloride ions (Cl-). This is represented by the chemical equation:
- HCl \begin{align*}\mathrm{\overset{H_2O}{\rightarrow}}\end{align*} H+ + Cl-
Properties of Acids
You already know that a sour taste is one property of acids. (Warning: Never taste an unknown substance to see whether it is an acid!) Acids have certain other properties as well. For example, acids can conduct electricity when dissolved in water because they consist of charged particles in solution. (Electric current is a flow of charged particles.) Acids can also react with metals, and when they do they produce hydrogen gas. An example of this type of reaction is hydrochloric acid reacting with the metal zinc(Zn). The reaction is pictured in the Figure below. It can be represented by the chemical equation:
- Zn + 2HCl → H2 + ZnCl2
Hydrochloric acid reacting with the metal zinc
Q: What sign indicates that a gas is being produced in this reaction?
A: The bubbles are hydrogen gas rising through the acid.
Q: Besides hydrogen gas, what else is produced in this reaction?
A: This reaction also produces zinc chloride ZnCl2, which is a neutral ionic compound called a salt.
You can see an online demonstration of another acid-metal reaction at this URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQz5YEsx7Fo
Detecting Acids
Certain compounds, called indicators, change color when acids come into contact with them, so indicators can be used to detect acids. An example of an indicator is the compound called litmus. It is placed on small strips of paper that may be red or blue. If you place a few drops of acid on a strip of blue litmus paper, the paper will turn red. You can see this in the Figure below. Litmus isn't the only indicator for detecting acids. Red cabbage juice also works well, as you can see in this entertaining video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrOUdoS2BtQ&feature=related
Drawing of blue litmus paper turning red in acid.
Strength of Acids
The strength of acids is measured on a scale called the pH scale. The pH value of a solution represents its concentration of hydrogen ions. A pH value of 7 indicates a neutral solution, and a pH value less than 7 indicates an acidic solution. The lower the pH value is, the greater is the concentration of hydrogen ions and the stronger the acid. The strongest acids, such as battery acid, have pH values close to zero.
Uses of Acids
Acids have many important uses, especially in industry. For example, sulfuric acid is used to manufacture a variety of different products, including paper, paint, and detergent. Some other uses of acids are be seen in the Figure below.
- Acids are ionic compounds that produce positive hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
- Acids taste sour, conduct electricity when dissolved in water, and react with metals to produce hydrogen gas.
- Certain indicator compounds, such as litmus, can be used to detect acids. Acids turn blue litmus paper red.
- The strength of acids is measured on the pH scale. A pH value less than 7 indicates an acid, and the lower the number is, the stronger the acid.
- Acids have many important uses, especially in industry.

Chewable fish oil gel cap with a non-fishy taste. I recommend the product to people who are unable to swallow the large gel caps offered by competing companies.
Great value
Posted by Reviewer3210057 on Jun 12, 2010
Great quality and price. Use to buy Nordic Naturals and after discovering Carlson, switched. Better value for the same quality. Kids like the orange flavor. I like that the whole family can take the same supplement (adults twice a day, and children one a day).

Gotta get that fish oil
Posted by Reviewer1843434 on Dec 16, 2009
Being a Scandinavian girl, fish oil in culturally a big part of my life, however I love the large quantity in this particular brand and who can beat the price. I even give my dog a couple of fish oil capsules a day.
Tastes Great!
Posted by ShelleyP on Jan 20, 2009
These taste quite good and are fun to chew. It does takes 5 of these capsules to get the equivalent of 1 tsp. of their regular fish oil though, so not as cost effective as the liquid.
excellent product
Posted by Reviewer2141573 on Feb 14, 2010
very good small family owned company, with top notch products!!!!!
Everyone should take fish oil
Posted by Reviewer1519629 on Sep 14, 2010

Convenient fish oil
Posted by Reviewer2354295 on May 23, 2010
I keep these at work so I can get my lunchtime dose of fish oil. Very convenient. Easy to swallow and no fish burps.
Great value
Posted by Reviewer2709738 on Apr 13, 2010
These were recommended by my Dr and are a deal! Taste good too.

very happy with product,extremely good value.
Comparable to higher priced brands
Posted by Reviewer2457263 on Jan 12, 2011
The capsules are large but easy to swallow since they're gel. Really nice light orange flavor masks the fish scent. I haven't noticed any burping or stomach ache from these. I wouldn't recommend chewing though, because I can taste the fish when doing that. Definitely going to reorder!

Updated 06/03/07
This page contains separate sections of links for information about testing and assessment, online tests, and test publishers.
These free tests are range from self-diagnostic psychiatric screening tests to academic research projects gathering data online. Other tests are enticements to pay for further services (books or web site memberships) and some are labeled "for entertainment only." Listed below are the free online tests I consider the best (or, in a few cases, most revealing of common problems in test construction). Each includes feedback about how to interpret results. No personal data is recorded by these sites unless otherwise indicated.
Interesting. Starts out asking about sugar intake and moves on to signs of depression of alcohol abuse, ends up giving you a score which indicates your addictive potential.
By C. George Boeree. 30-item test measures a person's sense of meaninglessness and estrangement from work and society.
This is a good example of a test which is very "transparent"...the items are so very straightforward that one could probably ask a person "Do computers make you anxious?" and get an equally valid result.
A test used in much research by Spielberger, an ex-president of the APA, and others. Like the previous few, it is transparent, but it is aimed at assessing a person's current state, not a lasting trait, therefore ostensibly it is more useful for before-and-after comparisons in therapy research.
"Experiences in Close Relationships" questionnaire diagnoses your attachment style. After completing the test you get a good discussion of its implications with links for finding out more. They collect some personal data like age, marital status, ethnicity and nationality, so this data might be used in research, but they do not ask for names or other detailed identifying data.
"Defensive pessimists lower their expectations to help prepare themselves for the worst. Then they mentally play through all the bad things that might happen. Though it sounds as if it might be depressing, defensive pessimism actually helps anxious people focus away from their emotions so that they can plan and act effectively." Quick checklist verifies your self-diagnosis.
"This scale is not designed to make a diagnosis of depression or take the place of a professional diagnosis." But it does tell you the extent to which you report symptoms typical of depression. Like the other screening tests on this page, it is transparent.
From the New York University Medical Center Department of Psychiatry. Gives a binary decision: you are/are not showing symptoms of depression.
A quick, confidential, totally transparent test for symptoms of depression.
Interesting. Asks about how you relate to others and your organization, then gives you feedback about your virtues or how you might have to adjust your behavior in leadership situations. Compares your results to group averages.
This is a test for irrational hatred of homosexuals. It has been used in research and is accompanied by a discussion of the issue.
This 15 minute multiple-choice test can only be taken once from a particular computer, requires personal information, and uses a password to give your results.
This is based on classic work, but I am including it here mostly as a negative example. The test requires forced choice decisions when the truth might be "in between." (For example, are bad grades deserved, or are tests unfair? The most accurate answer would be, "It depends on the situation.") Most free online tests have not been subjected to validity testing which can justify test design by showing the results match well with independent ways of measuring the same thing. Absent such evidence, a better way to capture people's true opinions is to use Likert scales (multi-point rating scales, e.g. asking for ratings on a 5- or 7-point scale) because one can take the middle position as a compromise between opposites.
This is a transparent test for the manic phase of the bipolar disorder.
"...Assesses your moral attitudes, particularly as they relate to your religious and cultural background. By "moral" we mean those aspects of thought and behavior that relate to commonly accepted notions of right and wrong, and to selfish and unselfish actions." Appears aimed at determining whether conventional religiosity correlates with moral positions as defined by the test-maker.
Another transparent screening test, this one for OCD...basically a list of symptoms.
From the New York University Medical Center Department of Psychiatry. This test is too short for what it tries to do. Personality disorders are the most unreliable diagnostic categories in DSM-IV, meaning that experts often disagree in their diagnoses. You can look in the relevant section of DSM-IV and see what personality disorder each question on this test is designed to reveal, but also how much they left out and how easy it would have been to add extra questions asking about more symptoms of each disorder.
Get a personality profile using the "big five" traits found to be most discriminative of personality differences. By William Revelle. Well done, efficient, with good feedback. Most items drawn from IPIP but some "experimental" ones added.
This site offers both the original (40-60 min) and shortened (15-25 min) versions of a test aimed at profiling your personality using the big five personality traits. Adapted from Goldberg's IPIP by John A. Johnson, PhD. Compare the results to Revelle's test for your own validity check.
Based on Jungian personality typology; requires registration, e-mail address for password to take test
This one is shorter than the other two "big five" tests above, with some overlap in questions, but it is not a total duplicate which makes it good as a validity check. I found total agreement between these three tests on four of the dimensions, total disagreement and contradiction on one dimension, which is actually useful to know when evaluating the results.
A test based on the 1940ish theory by Sheldon relating body type to three personality types: viscerotonia, somatotonia, and cerebrotonia. By C. George Boeree. This is just for fun; Sheldon's theory is no longer taken seriously.
Several personality tests, all based on the International Personality Item Pool (http://ipip.ori.org/). This one requires e-mail registration and a password.
A "modified version of the Jenkins Activity Survey" from 1971. Find out whether you would be rated a Type A or Type B personality, or somewhere in between. Alas, they do not tell you the original type A/B construct fell apart when later research failed to replicate the original findings linking Type A to heart attacks. (Cynicism proved more predictive than time-urgency or activity level.) Therefore this test, while fun, illustrates the dangers of reification...treating a psychological construct as concrete and real, just because you can construct a test to measure it, when the "thing" being measured may not even exist as a meaningful psychological trait.
"Gain insight into your personality the fun way! A variety of short personality tests that attempt to analyze your personality by interpreting your reactions to various events."
Find your "ShyQ" or how shy you are. Results are provided immediately and compared with aggregated data from web participants.
These sites have large collections of online tests and questionnaires.
These sites sell tests and online testing services to clinicians, businesses, and researchers. Some also offer free online tests.
"IQ Tests & Personality Tests - quick, fun, accurate!"
For identifying behavior problems. "The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) is the centerpiece of a family of psychological assessment instruments developed by Dr. Thomas M. Achenbach and used by professionals in the mental health and education fields"
"A new personality test that rivals Myers Briggs and is being used in Fortune 500 Companies nationwide"
"IPAT is the publisher of the 16PF Questionnaire (one of the most respected and well-documented assessments of normal adult personality) as well as other personality and ability tests. The website includes information on all products, interpretive report services, reference materials, workshops, research projects, international directory of distributors, research assistance for professors and graduate students, research contest for graduate students, and free testing materials and manuals for professors conducting graduate-level assessment or measurement courses."
Excerpts from a self-help cognitive behavior therapy program
Fun-sounding tests like "Are you a freak" and the "twin" test (find out the similarity between your personality and somebody else's). The author says, "The tests are derived from scientific psychological research and the feedback provided to participants is based on statistical analyses of large amounts of data, unlike many other 'tests' on the web."
"An innovative leader in psychological test publishing"
From HealthyPlace.com. Lots of online tests "for entertainment and possibly educational use only"
"...The pioneer and leader in online testing, has developed hundreds of psychological assessments and innovative applications for individual and business purposes" This site is owned by Queendom.com (next link) and the web pages are very similar.
"Queendom offers the largest online battery of professionally developed and validated psychological assessments. A pioneer and leader in online testing, Queendom has served more than 250 million tests in nine different languages."
"A site devoted to Commercially published standardized tests for all manner of purposes. Tests from over one hundred commercial test publishers are listed and described."
"We are the global market leader in computerized psychological diagnostics."
"Village Publishing publishes psychological tests and materials used by psychologists in child custody evaluations. The Village Publishing web site is an "on-line catalog" that fully lists and describes the tests and materials, as well as facilitates orders."

Chapter 9: Covalent Bonding
The physical and chemical properties of elements and compounds are a function of their structures. As we have seen in previous chapters, ions form when electrons are transferred from one atom to another. The crystalline structure and specific properties of ionic compounds are related to the nature of the ionic bond. Molecular compounds form in a completely different way. As you will learn in this chapter, atoms are also capable of forming chemical bonds by sharing electrons. There are specific guidelines that can be used to determine the ways in which this sharing occurs and the shapes of the molecules that result. The picture above is an electron density map of a water molecule, which has a bent shape. The red color is indicative of high electron density, while the blue color is indicative of low electron density.

It seems like big rig truck drivers are not what they used to be.
They are texting and on the phone. They don't use their signals.
They ride the lane lines....and now they are driving in the fast
lanes! If you're not a carpool, you can't get around them during
carpool hours. Have they changed the law? Are they no longer
restricted to the first two lanes? Unbelievable really. I'm surprised
they're aren't more accidents.
