What was Mark Whitacre thinking? A rising star at agri-industry giant Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Whitacre (Matt Damon) suddenly turns whistleblower. Even as he exposes his company's multi-national price-fixing conspiracy to the FBI, Whitacre envisions himself being hailed as a hero of the common man and handed a promotion. But before all that can happen, the FBI needs evidence, so Whitacre eagerly agrees to wear a wire and carry a hidden tape recorder in his briefcase, imagining himself as a kind of de facto secret agent. Unfortunately for the FBI, their lead witness hasn't been quite so forthcoming about helping himself to the corporate coffers. Whitacre's ever-changing account frustrates the agents (Scott Bakula and Joel McHale) and threatens the case against ADM as it becomes almost impossible to decipher what is real and what is the product of Whitacre's active imagination.

Located in the Marriott Evergreen, a resort described by an NBC Channel 11 reporter as "like being in another world," The Spa at Evergreen celebrates 10 years of transporting guests to another dimension of relaxation with pampering massage, skin, and nail services. The décor of each of the in-hotel spa's treatment rooms is inspired by an element to add an air of ritual to massages, facials, and body wraps. In the earth room, dark tones and the soothing scent of sandalwood and teak form a stark contrast to the lavender-colored, citrus-scented wind room, where aestheticians perform facials with Dermalogica products. In the water room, a rain shower in the ceiling rinses mud and seaweed from bodies after exfoliating body treatments or slimming wraps. Flickering candles warm the final treatment space, aptly named the fire room, where soothing massages atop heated treatment tables melt muscles like caramel snowmen.
At Warrior Body Spa, a team of holistic health experts help patients rid their bodies of toxins with ionic footbaths and body wraps. Their body wraps use medical bandages soaked in herbal solution to leech toxins from, shed inches from the body, and reduce the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite while imparting useful nutrients including vitamin K, caffeine, and collagen. Clients can also relieve tension with a variety of massages, including their therapeutic massage that incorporating essential oils, long strokes, and muscle kneading, to stimulates blood flow and reduce tension, and The Royal Warrior, which helps clients relax with a variety of hot oils and towels. Specialty massages are also available for pre-natal patients and teens active in sports, and an express option caters to those seeking emphasis on the head, neck, back and arms.
As a high-school student, Dennis Rattiner reached down to pick up a leaf blower and heard an ominous pop in his lower back. He was bedridden for days with pain. At the suggestion of a friend, he paid a visit to a chiropractor, which alleviated his discomfort without the use of drugs or surgery. From then on, he sought to help people in the same way.
Now the owner and head chiropractor at Progressive Healthcare of Gwinnett, Doctor of Chiropractic Rattiner treats patients for ailments including disk herniations, arthritis, and back and neck pain. His massage therapists and chiropractors rehabilitate patients through physical therapy, mollify aches with Swedish and deep-tissue massages, and help clients shed pounds with weight-loss programs and donuts made of antimatter.
Yahshua Spa & Wellness Salon's holistic approach to restoring the body combines massage, body, and beauty care. The spa's massage therapists strive to tailor Swedish, deep-tissue, prenatal, and reflexology massages to the needs of their clients. Staffers continue this customized approach during colon-hydrotherapy sessions, in which they often offer neck massages to make the natural body cleanse more relaxing. They also provide facials designed to hydrate skin, decrease oil levels, and remove walking dead skin cells.

Ice Sheets Affect Corals
Fossilised corals from tropical Tahiti show that the behaviour of ice sheets is much more volatile and dynamic than previously thought.
Analysis of the corals suggests that ice sheets can change rapidly over just hundreds of years – events associated with sea level rises of several metres over the same period. It also shows that a natural warming mechanism thought to be responsible for ending ice ages does not fit the timing of the end of the penultimate ice age, around 137,000 years ago.
A report of the research appears online in the journal Science on April 23...

Pep Guardiola expected to decide on Barcelona future tomorrow
Pep Guardiola is expected to announce tomorrow whether he will sign a new contract at Barcelona or quit the Nou Camp.
Reports in Barcelona this morning claimed Barca boss Guardiola had already held a meeting with club president Sandro Rosell, at which he outlined his future plans.
He will convey that message to the players when they reconvene for training tomorrow ahead of Sunday's trip to Rayo Vallecano with the club then expected to reveal his decision.
Guardiola, 41, has operated on short-term deals throughout his time at the Barca helm and his latest deal expires in the summer.
But the manner of their defeat to Real Madrid last weekend - a defeat which effectively saw them relinquish their Primera Division title to Jose Mourinho's men - and the midweek exit to Chelsea in the Champions League semi-finals may prompt Guardiola to walk away after four trophy-laden years.
Speculation in Catalonia this morning suggested the former Spain and Barca midfielder was giving serious consideration to quitting.
Speaking after the game with Chelsea on Tuesday, Guardiola said: "I will speak with Tito [Vilanova, assistant manager] and see what we have to do.
"Right now, we need to talk more about the emotion of our players and how they recover because there are many players that have been playing a long time.
"We have to go to Rayo Vallecano [this weekend], we are still Barca, we have to continue doing things as we usually do them.
"So we will talk to the president as well and we will talk about everything - the situation what happened in these days and of course we will take a decision because it is time to take a decision now."
Guardiola stepped up from Barca B manager to first-team boss in 2008 and has gone on to become the most successful coach in the club's illustrious history.
He has led the azulgrana to two Champions League crowns, three La Liga trophies, one Copa del Rey, three Supercopas, two UEFA Super Cups and two FIFA Club World Cups.

The Amtrak Residency: Why I Think This Is A Terrible Idea For A Writer
I've felt sorry for Amtrak for a long time. Economic pressures and the unique problems of any rail system based inside the US (where automobile travel has too long been the be-all and end-all) have turned it into a faint shadow of the formerly great passenger and freight rail lines that helped define the 19th and early 20th-century history of the US.
But I'm finished feeling sorry for it as of now. It's no crime to have fallen on hard times. But offering people what seems to be something wonderful and then ripping them off the minute they start trying to take advantage of it? NOT GOOD.
On the face of it, it sounds like a lovely offer.
#AmtrakResidency was designed to allow creative professionals who are passionate about train travel and writing to work on their craft in an inspiring environment. Round-trip train travel will be provided on an Amtrak long-distance route. Each resident will be given a private sleeper car, equipped with a desk, a bed and a window to watch the American countryside roll by for inspiration. Routes will be determined based on availability.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed by a panel. Up to 24 writers will be selected for the program starting March 17, 2014 through March 31, 2015. A passion for writing and an aspiration to travel with Amtrak for inspiration are the sole criteria for selection. Both emerging and established writers will be considered.
But then you read the terms and conditions, and the alarm bells go off big time. Go read them: I'll wait. I'm not going to reproduce them here: they give me the pip.
Clause 5 is where the trouble starts. Clause 5 essentially says: "When you turn in your application, gee, anything can happen to your original writing. Who knows? We have a billion PR people working for us whose work yours might be [airquotes] confused with [/airquotes]. By signing this you agree that should this happen, you have no recourse, and we never have to credit you or pay you one thin dime. [But you're so desperate, you won't care, will you?] #lol #loser"
Clause 5 by itself ought to be enough to make you walk away, it's so slimy. But then comes clause 6, in which you assign to Amtrak the irrevocable world rights to all the data in your application including your writing, forever and a day. And the day after that.
I learned the lesson long ago both from other freelance writers and at my agent's knee, and the lesson is as important now as it ever was — in this day of the effortless digital ripoff, perhaps way more so. The lesson is this: Never give anyone world rights to any of your writing. Ever. Ever. Because who knows if that one piece of writing is the one that would have made you famous worldwide and rich beyond the dreams of avarice? I wouldn't sell anyone world rights for a million dollars and that necklace of flawless cabochon emeralds I saw in the window at Harry Winston that one time*. But give away world rights to something for a single lousy train ticket? I don't think so. They could plate the inside of that sleeper with platinum and lay on catering from Dallmayr and I still wouldn't do it if it meant they got to keep world rights.
Better pay the ticket price yourself and keep the rights to your work in your own pocket than swap those rights for the chance at a single train ride, sleeper or not. (And something else to note here. There is no declaration of who owns the rights to the material you produce on this train trip. There is no way to tell what paperwork you're going to be required to sign if you actually win. Oh, and did I mention the background checks they want to conduct on you first, to make sure you're not some kind of crypto-crook who's going to embarrass them? Clause 9.)
…Now, I hear they're fixing clause 6 in some way or other (doubtless already having heard the first wave of complaints). That's all well and good. But I haven't heard a word about clause 5, which stinks to just as high a heaven. And they tried to get away with clause 6 as it was. That says way too much about their concept of good faith as it applies to writing, and writers.
It's not worth it. This thing is poison. So please, I beg of you, step away from the very large diesel-powered vehicle. I too am "passionate about train travel and writing"… way more than most people might guess on the first count. But this is not the way to go about it. If they're willing to try to take this much off you before you even win, what happens when you actually get on board?
*I leaned my forehead against the window right there on Fifth Avenue in the twilight and moaned like a broken thing. Ah God those emeralds. They didn't have a single inclusion, not one of them. (sigh) …Never mind.

The whole TPP business just reminded me of Alanna from the MSPA forums, where the heroine was aware of forum comments and perceived them as benevolent spectral advisors. So there was some back-and-forth between Alanna and the readers, where people got really emotionally invested in her adventure.
It's a good read and I don't want to spoil too much, but it does end on a bittersweet note, so I was always sad that nobody ever sang "Happy Birthday" to her.
So with TPP's conclusion, I'm really, really glad that the last thing Red ever heard from us was cheers and shouts of victory.

Blastoise had ceased to move. Twitching under the electric assault. He recalled Zapdos, what the voices had been referring too as the "Archangel". His team was in tatters" but there were enough left standing.
When the Professor clasped his shoulder and lead him into that room, everything seemed so… clear. He stumbled forward. His feet had been moving on their own all this time. And as he stepped into this room, he found that he had - no, not just had, that he could - move his feet forward of his own will. That he wasn't dashing into a wall, or tripping off a ledge, or checking his items one by one after mashing buttons on his Pokedex.
No.. he felt.. more in control. The voices that had been there since day 1 - a chaotic mass that had willed his movements, edged him towards the PC - where so many friends had been separated from him - but also steered him through great victories.
He put his Pokemon, his friends, into the machine that would register them. Helix, the Lord. Abba, the Savior and Messiah, Fonz, The King, Double-A, the Archangel, Air, the Prince, and ATV, the Dragonslayer.
The voices started to fade. They faded more and more, each step he took away from the Indigo Plateau. They fevered cries that had directed him, that had given him movement… they started to silence, one by one.
Oak helped him home, as he continued to stagger and stumble. He assumed that being the Pokemon Champion had overwhelmed him.
How wrong he was.
He left Red at the door to his home, congratulated him again. Red could actually hear him, for once. Over it all. Over the voices. The voices who, now that he was at the door to his home…were silent.
For a ong moment, he stared at the door. It felt like an eternity, just drinking in the peaceful atmosphere. For the first time since he had started this journey, Red felt something settle within him.
Peace. Peace at last. He was finally free.

FaceGen Modeller »
Sooo I installed this forever ago but lost track of it after a few moves and computer meltdowns. Now that I've found it again, I'm sharing it with you guys.
FaceGen is a program that lets you create a 3D model of a human face and has a pretty decent range of customization. The free version is the same as the paid one, except that you can't import faces into other modelling software and they all have a watermark on the forehead, which is fine for me, since I'm just using it as a drawing reference.
Only real quibble is that it only features four ethnicities (African, European, East Asian, South Asian), and some of the expression sliders are downright creepy, but it's a good start if you're learning how to draw different racial features and face types. There's sliders for everything,including age and gender. You can apparently also feed in a photograph of yourself and let it generate a picture of you, but I haven't tried that yet.
Here's six faces where I just hit the "Generate" button and gave them random skin textures:
(Christ, the watermark really gives off a "cyberpunk androids fresh off the assembly line" feel…)
Have fun!

cheshiresmiling replied to your post: Idle thought: Are there any post-zombi…
There is the Newsflesh trilogy by Mira Grant! It takes place several years after the zombie apocalypse, and follows a set of reporters covering the presidential election. It's one of my favorite series, personally.
Ooo. Newsflesh was on my to-read list, but I didn't know it was post-zombie, and I've definitely enjoyed books from Mira Grant's mild-mannered alternate identity… Thanks for the heads up :D

Idle thought: Are there any post-zombie zombie stories? Like, after the whole grim survival siege situation and the fighting over food and water and collapse of society and finding out about secret inethical experimentations and governmental coverup and the military being called in and running away to a deserted island. Assuming our heroes live, what happens then?
I mean, yeah, it'd probably be the same as any other postapoc setting, but those are usually just either natural disasters or nuclear war, with a slim chance of aliens. You can't go anywhere without tripping over a zombie story, so people will be familiar with the set-up.
I suppose the question is, "is there even anything new to say in the genre," and that's where I'm falling down…

I ordered the iphone last night on my business account around 2:20. It took me a while to get it to work for the business account as I had been trying soon as they started taking orders. I finally got it to work, placed the order, but never got a confirmation email to my personal email or to my work email. I thought maybe that the order didn't work, so I went to my account and my orders and the iphone order showed up. I clicked it and it just said N/A beside status, shipping, and tracking number. Underneath it said "due to the increase in demand for this product, etc.." Well I go to bed thinking I'll have an email when I wake up confirming the order and giving me a shipping number. Never got it. I go back to the site, check my order number, and the part in quotes at the bottom is no longer there and under status, it says completed but still has a N/A by everything else.
Can anyone let me know if they had this same problem?
Thanks in advance.
Still haven't received anything. Making me regret ordering through Verizon. I wish I had of done more research and just ordered it through apple and chose in store pick up. I was under the impression that I would be receiving my iphone tomorrow.
That's how mine was when I ordered at 3:00 on the 7th. Never heard one thing from them until I got an email from Verizon saying it had been shipped with a tracking number. That happened on 8th about 6:00 pm. I kept checking my account and saw that it had been charged about 2 hrs. before I got any info from Verizon. I even clicked update of my phone number and it showed that I had an order pending.
When I Pre-Ordered on the 3rd. I received no emails whatsoever. All I got was a confirmation number once I hit the submit button to place the order. I was concerned that I got no emails but I just kept checking my status on the verizon website and eventually it showed my tracking number. Once I got that, I used that to keep track of my shipment.
We're sorry you haven't received a confirmation for your iPhone order. I will be sending you a PM, and ask that you reply with your wireless number (including area code) so we can confirm your equipment order.
I am in the same boat as Philstyle above. Placed my order around 12:30 AM Pacific Time on 2/9 and received a confirmation number after entering my credit card information. But I did not receive an email confirmation so now I'm worried that it did not go through. Unfortunately, I did not print out the number so I can't look up the status...
information sent in the private message.
I wish I had of known that I most likely wouldn't be getting my phone tomorrow and I wouldn't have ordered online from Verizon. Oh well, you live and you learn.

Chance to be down at MSFC for 14 weeks, needed an inexpensive stay, read the good reviews and the fact that if it wasn't a good review mgmt was quick to respond... I have to have good internet connectivity due to my university and employment, when asked I was given 16mbps. Drove the 23 hours to here, set up my computer... 0.7mbps! Have had nothing but issues with Guest-Tek, finally purchased the 'up to 3mbps'... now it is at 0.08 if it works at all! I know it's not entirely the hotel's fault... but I cannot stay 14 weeks and not have access to my classes. I will re-review if it gets better... or worse :(

EMS companies sue NW Houston scrap yard where stolen ambulances were found
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Local businessmen who say dozens of their ambulances were stolen are now suing the scrap yard that bought and crushed some of those emergency vehicles
We first told brought you this story last week when Houston police found about a dozen of the trucks at Texas Port Recycling in northwest Houston.
Texas Port Recycling told us it bought the ambulances from a company with state-issued scrap metal licenses and proper paperwork.
A lawyer for Baytex EMS, Life Care EMS, and Greater Houston EMS Inc. -- whose ambulances were stolen -- just filed a lawsuit against Texas Port Recycling, and a judge has ordered the scrap yard to not crush any more of the ambulances until the case is resolved.

Returning tailback to anchor New Brighton's young lineup
By Meredith Qualls
Published: Thursday, Aug. 23, 2012, 6:29 p.m.
Coach Joe Greco believes the Lions are on the way up.
"We've had an excellent offseason," the New Brighton coach said. "We have a solid core of kids grades 10 through 12. They've put the time in."
With one more win in 2011 than the year before, Greco believes that this year, the team will be even more competitive.
One obvious strength in the lineup is senior Kellen Mackey, who rushed for 799 yards last season.
"Kellen's going to be one obvious impact player. He's looking for a healthy and successful senior season," Greco said. "He's a strong, fast kid."
But Greco isn't looking for Mackey to carry the team.
"We're going to have to be more than just him," Greco said.
New Brighton is still a young team. Senior Tony Tomasi and juniors Craig Thompson and Braden Thomas will play wide receiver, while juniors Lamar Taft and Tyler St. Esprit will play fullback. Joe Greco's son, Gabe, a junior, will play quarterback in the team's spread offense.
The Lions have not been to the postseason since 2003, and this year Greco wants his team to be in the mix.
"The (Midwestern Conference) is always competitive. That's just the way it is," Greco said. "We hope to be one of the teams fighting for a playoff spot."

I think that this dish needs the garlic. I neglected to put any in as per the other comments and it was missing something. I used black pepper and the zest and juice of half a lemon instead of the lemon pepper too. Overall it was a tasty and very cheap dinner. Will be having again for sure, but next time with garlic!
tasty, with a bit of spice, didnt have kepac manis so added extra soy sauce and pepper and salt. will use regularly.
Made this for tea for my wife and three kids. I was surprised at how juicy the chicken was on the inside. I added garlic, lemon and some chicken stock. 1 teaspoon. Everyone like it even my cat who somehow ate the bits of chicken left over ( or the kids dropped the cat some meat) very easy no mess and nice taste.
super easy! i didnt have lemon pepper so i used normal white pepper and a couple splashes of lemon juice, i also added crushed garlic and one chopped red chilli (seeds removed) delicious!
Very easy and tasted great!
Amazing flavour! I've made these for a few BBQs & they always get complimented. Also worth using the seasoning on chicken breasts done on the BBQ or grilled.

Posts: 13858 My dictionary gives as third meaning of "jetty"=overhanging part of a building, and "pilaster"= rectangular support or pier projecting partially from a wall and treated architecturally as a column, with a base, shaft, and capital
So it sounds as though fishonabike has the answer . My compliments to you, sir.

Posts: 1346
Loc: Sussex, England You could guess that I've done this kind of thing before quite a bit (Brit cryptic crosswords). But allow me to show you all how it works for this clue:
Column to remain inside jetty (8)
1. Either the overall meaning of the word is "column" or "jetty".
2. Whatever is left of the clue after you remove that word denotes how the word is made up [this is what I always loved about cryptic crosswords - they're actually easier, as you get two types of clue. You don't even need to know the word.]
3. There's a natural pause after "column", and it's the first word, so we try that as the overall meaning.
4. "to remain inside jetty" is left. The simplest interpretation of this is that the solution is made up of a word meaning "to remain" inside a word meaning "jetty".
5. First word that springs to mind meaning "jetty" is pier. Yeah, OK, generally a jetty is a lot smaller than a pier, and this is stretching the meaning - but we forgive the crossword compiler and get on with it..
6. Now we have an 8-letter word meaning "column" that consists of P*IxE*R where *s denotes all possible locations for another word meaning "to remain". x denotes the favourite location, as it's right in the middle.
7. Now we try to think of a four-letter word meaning "to remain" (4 letters because we've already used up 4 on "pier"). You'll notice that dody thought "stay", so stuck that in location x, giving pi-stay-er. However, that's not a real word, and doesn't mean "column" so we try again.
8. I try last as the word meaning to remain, and stick that in location x.
This gives pilaster, which happens to mean "column" and is the correct answer.

Republican U.S. Rep. Erik Paulsen has netted a Democratic challenger.
Democrat Sharon Sund, who ran for the DFL endorsement in the Third Congressional District in 2012, announced her campaign on Thursday.
National Democrats had eyed Paulsen's seat for possible pick up because it is one of the few seats across the country held by a Republican where President Obama bested Republican Mitt Romney.
In 2012, Obama won 49.5 percent of the vote, to Romney's 48.65 percent in the suburban district. That year, Paulsen won re-election with 58 percent of the vote.
Sund, a DFL activist who has worked in science-related jobs for big Minnesota businesses, said in a release: "I'm running for Congress because Minnesota's families deserve a thriving economy that rewards hard work and innovation."
When she ran in 2012, local DFL activists picked Brian Barnes to run instead and she dropped out.
Paulsen has already built up a considerable war chest to fend off any challengers. According to his most recent campaign finance report, he had $1.7 million cash on hand.
In an effort to shed more light on who is influencing lawmakers, a Senate panel on Wednesday approved a measure that would require disclosure of officials' spouses' financial interests.
"I really see it as an oversight," said Sen. Kent Eken, DFL-Twin Valley, who sponsored the measure.
Various studies have found that Minnesota has weaker financial disclosure requirements than many states. Many other states already require some financial disclosure from spouses, and some even require information about lawmakers and other officials' children.
But the idea has its detractors.
"I just really don't see how we can force a spouse to comply with this statute," said Sen. Scott Newman, R-Hutchinson. He said he could not support the measure.
Sen. Ann Rest, DFL-New Hope, said she shared that "sense of umbrage."
"I'm going to vote for it but I, too, have some misgivings," she told Eken.
The measure would also ask lawmakers and other officials to disclosure the areas in which they have contracts to do consulting or independent contracting.
A similar measure is moving forward in the Minnesota House as well.
A proposal to avoid partisan, big-money fights for judicial seats by changing the way judges achieve and keep their offices moved ahead on a mixed voice vote at the Legislature Wednesday.
The Senate Subcommittee on Elections approved the measure and sent it to the full Rules Committee.
Sponsored by Sen. Ann Rest, DFL-New Hope, the bill proposes an amendment to the state constitution that would go to voters in November. It would replace the current system, in which judges run for re-election with the word "incumbent" by their names, with one that depends on an appointed merit commission and yes-or-no "retention" elections with no opponent on the ballot.
Rest and supporters of the bill, including former Supreme Court Justice Eric Magnuson, presented the amendment as a way of avoiding partisan judicial elections that require judges to commit on issues that may later come before them. In Wisconsin and Michigan, they said, those races have attracted significant campaign contributions.
"You folks run on platforms," Magnuson told the legislators. "A judge can't run on a platform. That's antithetical to what a judge does. A judge decides cases based on the law and fact in front of him or her."
Sarah Walker, president of the Coalition for Impartial Justice, also argued in support of the bill. "All you have to do is look around the country .... to see that high-cost partisan elections are sweeping the country, and it's not far off in Minnesota."
Currently, most judges do come into office by gubernatorial appointment, but there are rare elections for open seats without an appointee. Once in office, judges stand for re-election and can be challenged by opponents. Most run unopposed.
Opponents of the measure including Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life, the powerful anti-abortion organization, and others who argued that the measure denied voters the right to freely choose their own judges.
"We oppose the premise that citizens aren't qualified to vote for judges," said Andrea Rau of the MCCL. We believe citizens have the right to vote for a particular judicial candidate, not just against them."
Sen. Warren Limmer, R-Maple Grove, a member of the subcommittee, said voters "will have their vote taken away." He said empowering a commission to evaluate judges and recommend replacements means the people's right to select judges would be given to "political appointees."
"I don't see the public pounding our doors for this," Limmer said.
Rest's proposed amendment is now queued up in the Senate Rules Committee along with a proposed amendment that would make it harder for the Legislature to submit future constitutional amendments to voters. The House, which is up for re-election in November, has shown less interest in putting amendments on the ballot this year.
One day after the only Republican candidate for Secretary of State dropped out of the race, former state senator John Howe announced on Tuesday that he would run for the seat and former state senator Ted Daley said he is "definitely" considering a bid.
On Monday, Dennis Nguyen, who had the GOP field to himself, quit the race, claiming his existing obligations had made it difficult for him to run a statewide race. Nguyen had seen his support from sitting lawmakers diminish after reports that he had visited strip clubs.
Howe, the former mayor of Red Wing, said he had thought about running when Nguyen was still in the race. Daley said he did not.
Both of the former senators were elected in 2010 and lost their seats to Democrats after the 2012 redistricting.
Howe, a former mayor of Red Wing, said that his hallmarks would be honest and common sense.
"I think most people know that I work well with everybody," Howe said. In the 2012 legislative session, he proposed what some saw as a compromise to the voter ID constitutional amendment. That alternative was not adopted by the Republican-led Legislature.
Daley, a CPA and military veteran, said he is "definitely, definitely considering" a run for the office. While he said his interest in running rose after Nguyen quit the race. He said he expects to make a decision this week.
Daley, of Eagan, was on the joint House-Senate committee that crafted the voter ID amendment. The voter ID amendment ultimately made it onto the ballot and was rejected by Minnesotans in the 2012 election.
Current Secretary Mark Ritchie, a Democrat, is not running for re-election. DFL state Reps. Steve Simon, of Hopkins, and Debra Hilstrom, of Brooklyn Center, are both running to replace him.
A Republican legislative leader who supports same-sex marriage said she will run in a primary after failing to win her party's endorsement over the weekend.
"This is a democracy and people are able to throw their hat in the ring," said state Rep. Jenifer Loon, of Eden Prairie. "I don't see this as a huge issue, honestly."
Local GOP activist Sheila Kihne emerged to challenge Loon at their local convention, with neither candidate able to get enough votes to win the endorsement.
Kihne said she is weighing a primary run after her strong showing at the convention. Loon was one of four GOP House members who voted to legalize same-sex marriage last year.
"Here locally, it was an issue of trust or integrity," Kihne said Monday. "We do not feel like we have good leadership."
Activists who oppose same-sex marriage had worked behind-the-scenes to defeat Loon, a deputy minority leader.
"Life, marriage, and religious freedom are values for which there is no compromise," said John Helmberger, CEO of the Minnesota Family Council. "Jenifer Loon tried to compromise these values-hurting the families in her district who trusted her to uphold them. And her constituents have spoken."
House Minority Leader Kurt Daudt said he expects Loon will prevail and win a fourth term.
"Jenifer Loon—and I don't know anybody who would dispute this—is very well-liked by the constituents in her district," said Daudt, R-Crown. "I'm very confident that she will make it through a primary and easily win a general election again. She does a great job representing her community and I think that support will definitely be there for her."
Just over 40 percent of voters in Loon's district supported a proposed constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage in 2012, a factor that Loon said she considered when she voted to legalize same-sex marriage last year.
Kihne said she is not a single-issue Republican, and noted that Loon is among several GOP leaders who have faced a challenge from within the party, including Daudt.
"It speaks to the fact that we are looking for more principled leadership and representatives who do what they are say they are going to do," she said.
Of the four GOP House members who supported same-sex marriage, Loon is not the only one facing challengers.
First-term Rep. David FitzSimmons, R-Albertville, lost the endorsement at his convention and is considering a primary run.
Rep. Andrea Kieffer, R-Woodbury, is not seeking re-election.
Only Rep. Pat Garofalo of Farmington breezed through his convention without trouble.

Google's new OS raises privacy, antitrust concerns
A Google spokesman says user privacy will be a top priority
IDG News Service - Google's announcement Tuesday that it is developing an open-source operating system raised questions among privacy advocates about the amount of personal data Google will be able to collect.
Google already collects private data through products like its search engine and its Gmail e-mail service, as well as its AdSense advertising service. The Chrome operating system, to be rolled out on netbook computers next year, gives the company another avenue to collect and monetize personal information, privacy advocates said Wednesday.
"Competition in the OS market should always be welcome, but Google is the special case," said Marc Rotenberg, president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, a privacy advocacy group. "It has become dominant across many essential Internet services -- search, mail, video, online apps and advertising."
Google has a growing profile of Web users and has been reluctant to support some privacy safeguards, Rotenberg added. For example, Google has been cool to proposals to require that online vendors get opt-in permission before collecting customers' personal data.
Rotenberg called on antitrust officials in the U.S. and Europe to "view Google's entry into the OS market with enormous skepticism."
Jeffrey Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, another privacy advocate, agreed. "I think the new OS has to be placed under the data collection x-ray by U.S. and E.U. privacy regulators and advocates," he said. "Any expansion into the marketplace by either Google or Microsoft should generate intense scrutiny, especially for the privacy implications."
Google's entrance into the OS market "clearly" raises some privacy concerns, said Ari Schwartz, vice president at the Center for Democracy and Technology, a privacy and civil liberties advocacy group. While Google does a good job protecting privacy within individual products or services, the company has challenges with guarding privacy across its suite of offerings as a whole, Schwartz said.
Google has recently worked on giving users control of their privacy settings for targeted online advertising, but Schwartz said he's unsure how more user privacy controls would work in an operating system environment. "We'd like to see them innovate in that area, but that remains to be seen," he said.
Google spokesman Adam Kovacevich said user privacy will be among the top priorities as the company develops the new operating system.
"The product is still being developed ... but we'll consider privacy protections when we build the product, as we do with all our other products," he said. "We always build privacy into our products from the very beginning, and this will be no exception."
Google's expanding online empire creates not only privacy questions, but antitrust ones as well, said Steve Pociask, president of the American Consumer Institute Center for Citizen Research, a think tank that has been critical of Google in the past. Google's Chrome operating system would run on top of the Linux kernel and be primarily Web-based, Google said.

$7.40 is too high to add. I prefer them cheaper.
Sell at $8 wesp ?? Stock is worth well above 8, huh...
VSNT did 22 cents and 25 without the restructuring charge. If they can do $.75 for 06 and give it a modest P/E of 20 which is very low for the margins and growth in earnings the stock is worth $15.
Well lady, if you were short, you must have covered at $7.33 by your own system. TA is rather useless without history, and the stock history of this company is only two weeks. Before the latest figures the volume was too thin, and I expect to be in that same situation again within a few days/weeks???
Regarding the Stockscouter, the most useless crap I have ever seen. Half a year back at $4 the rating was N/A, 1 month ago it was two and it still is two. The whole change in management is not in their system. Without change the ticker would have been VSNT.OB (or PK) now. And it still is high risk!!!!
Above $6.90 I will not add to my reasonable position. As stated before I expect the stock to be in the range $7 to $8 for the coming month. Above $8 I will sell a few.
I also will not post any message on this board for a while.
Versant Corporation, a micro-cap value company in the technology sector, is expected to underperform the market over the next six months with very high risk.
RATING - 2 - 10 is the best possible rating.
Stock Price: $7.35
TRADE QUALITY 75%, Good
TARGET 1 Price: 6.47 Profit: 12% , for a typical pullback.
Cover Limit/Trailing Cover Limit: 7.71 Loss: 4.9%
Profit/Loss Ratio: 2.4 : 1 - Fair
TARGET 1 POTENTIAL Excellent, there are 1 support areas on the way to Target 1.
Stocks may quickly fall to Targets when there are not many support areas blocking the way.
TARGET 1 SUPPORT Current price at support: 7.2 ± 0.21, type single, strength 8
-12% at 6.47 is Target 1
TARGET 2 Price: 6.2 Profit: 15.6% , Profit/Loss Ratio: 3.2 : 1 - Good for an extreme pullback.
Most of the posters will only come around when think their position has been confirmed/proven by the latest stock activity.
It seems very few are interested in learning anything from anybody else.
You have the bashers - I'm not sure what they think. If you/anyone is truly trying to sway people in one direction or another, bashing sure seems to be a highly ineffective way to do it.
Calling me a bag holder does't make me want to sale my long position. And I doubt anyone long or short does anything because of bashers. So why do people bash? I guess it's easy and it makes them feel better.
As for traders - trading is a lot like poker. You get lucky and you think you know what you're doing. You feel invincible. Then reality catches up with you and you lose it all. That's the way it is for most poker players and I suspect the same for traders. Very few actually make money over the long run.
Investing is where it's at.
This post wasn't directed towards you Wesp ... it was just convenient to reply to your post.
