When two people are trying to make a deal — whether they're competing or cooperating — what's really going on inside their brains? Behavioral economist Colin Camerer shows research that reveals just how little we're able to predict what others are thinking. And he presents an unexpected study that shows chimpanzees might just be better at it than we are. (Filmed at TEDxCalTech.)

How Will Recent Changes to United Methodist Women Affect Local Women?
The 2012 General Conference allowed United Methodist Women to separate from the General Board of Global Ministries and become an official independent organization within the United Methodist Church.
Since then, many members have been inquiring about how this historic action will impact local United Methodist Women.
While the 2012 General Conference adopted changes related to the structure of United Methodist Women on the district, conference and national levels, it did not approve any changes to local units of United Methodist Women.
And so, local units will continue under the guidelines of The Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church, 2008 (¶ 256.5) and the United Methodist Women handbook.
The 2013-2016 United Methodist Women Handbook ($12.50), off press in January 2013, explains the flexibility available to local United Methodist Women to organize for mission. Here's a synopsis of some of the ways local United Methodist Women can organize.
Local United Methodist Women organization
United Methodist Women is organized according to the group's need and size. Most United Methodist Women groups relate to a local church. Each local organization of United Methodist Women should have a leadership team, which at minimum consists of a:
- President
- Vice-President
- Treasurer
- Secretary
- Chair, committee on nominations (The Book of Discipline, 2008, cf. 256.5).
Local groups chose additional leaders and form other committees or task forces as needed.
Organizational Options and Opportunities
Subgroups and circles
Forming subgroups or circles allows members an opportunity to focus on special mission interests in smaller groups. They provide greater flexibility and freedom for participation, nurture and leadership development.
Some women find that their circle is their primary connection for prayer, study and spiritual growth. Subgroups and circles may relate to the local organization by selecting representatives to be members or connect with the leadership team and/or other committees, as appropriate.
Cluster or charge groups
Smaller groups in a local church may be strengthened by joining with United Methodist Women members in other churches to form a charge or cluster or other regional group.
Online connections
Social networking through UMWOnline.net provides yet another way to organize and connect with others with a passion for mission. The primary purpose of the online community is to enhance the ways in which we connect and communicate with one another.
Accepting a leadership role requires a commitment of time, energy and effort. But in return, you develop a deeper understanding of mission, grow spiritually and are sustained by the knowledge that you are making a difference in the lives of women, children and youth and addressing unjust systems.
Leadership team
The local organization should be structured so that the work of administration, finance, program planning, planning for mission, record keeping and nominations can be carried out. A member must be named president, and she — or someone named by the team — must serve as the contact person for the district organization and serve on the local church council.
The leadership team assigns responsibilities for all basic functions. It includes the following persons:
- President
- Vice president
- Treasurer
- Secretary
- Chair, committee on nominations
- Member at large
- Pastor (ex-officio)
Other persons may also be recruited to plan programs of spiritual growth, mission education and advocacy work according to the needs of your group and community. Others might organize programs for individual study and hands-on mission.
Each organization should recruit leaders needed to make sure opportunities for spiritual growth, mission education, leadership development, service and advocacy are available to members throughout the year.
Elected leadership responsibilities and duties
The president, treasurer, chair of the committee on nominations and secretary of the local organization each have a counterpart in the district and conference organizations of United Methodist Women. Your district counterpart will be available to give you practical advice about how to carry out your duties and will be a source of support as you learn more about being a leader of United Methodist Women. They will provide training and give advice.
Term and tenure of elected leaders
Leaders are elected for terms that are determined by their local or district unit. Tenure, the maximum amount of time a woman may serve, is described in the bylaws of United Methodist Women, which are in the handbook.
Tasks of mission
Mission is and has been at the heart of the organization for more than 140 years. Our mission tasks grow out of the United Methodist Women vision and outcomes and offer a way for local groups to organize themselves.
I hope this is helpful to local United Methodist Women members organizing to put their faith, hope and love into action.

The GANEX is a broad, cross-capitalization, multi-industry, multi-sector green equity index. Its purpose is to:
(1) Represent the emerging, green, eco-efficient economy in all its aspects, in effect defining the next, green economy
(2) Demonstrate the growth, breadth and depth of this Next EconomyTM
(3) Serve as a performance benchmark for active green public equity investment strategies
(4) Provide a universe of Next Economy companies to draw from to manage active green strategies
We believe that the three major, global, macroeconomic conditions currently prevailing: 1) required sustainable restructuring of the US and world economies, 2) energy and national security and 3) civilization-threatening climate change, make an imperative case for investing in the best companies leading the way to the eco-sustainable, minimal-carbon future. Or as we call it, the Next Economy. By Next Economy we mean the whole next economy as it must function to avert eventual collapse: cross-industry, cross-sector, cross-cap, cross-border. This includes energy solutions, water solutions, smart grid technologies, infrastructure, materials, agricultural solutions, forestry solutions, sustainable commerce, communications and zero-carbon transportation. All these things are connected; solving for one issue type doesn't make sense when confronted with multi-dimensional problems. Click here for more info on our investment thesis and research process.
Index Management
Next Economy, eco-efficient companies identified during the ongoing research process are evaluated for market liquidity and bankruptcy risk. Those passing these criteria are admitted into the GANEX with a modified market-cap weighting. The GANEX is completely reconstituted annually. In addition, the investment committee meets monthly to discuss possible additions or removals to or from the index between reconstitution events. These changes, while important to ensure the index remains current with the Next Economy, do not have a dramatic effect on portfolio turnover.
GANEX is available for investment via the following managed account solutions:

American journalist and critic noted for his range of interests and for his outspoken essays on African-American arts, politics, and culture.
Crouch grew up in Los Angeles, where he attended two junior colleges and was an actor-playwright in the Studio Watts company (196567). While teaching at the Claremont Colleges (196875), he also wrote poetry and played drums; initially active in the Civil Rights Movement, he abandoned it for a more militant viewpoint. He moved to New York City, where he promoted jazz performances, then became a staff writer for the Village Voice (197988).
Writers Ralph Ellison and, especially, Albert Murray crucially influenced major changes in Crouch's thinking. Like Murray, he criticized politicians and writers who viewed black people as victims and black culture as deprived. He came to oppose black nationalism, accusing it of narrowness of vision, even of racism; separatist leaders such as Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael, according to Crouch, vitiated the Civil Rights Movement. An enthusiastic admirer of what he considered avant-garde jazz in the 1970s, he opposed the music in the 1980s, when he became a spokesman for popular jazz trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. The objects of Crouch's published attacks included many forms of racism, as well as filmmaker Spike Lee, novelist Toni Morrison, and rap music. In the 1990s he wrote columns for the New York Daily News and articles for magazines such as The New Yorker and Esquire. He was the author of two collections of essays, Notes of a Hanging Judge (1990) and The All-American Skin Game; or, The Decoy of Race: The Long and Short of It, 19901994 (1995).

Federal Medicaid statutes and regulations give States broad discretion to craft the rules applicable to their Medicaid programs. Congress left intact the States' authority to determine what makes an entity qualified to provide Medicaid services, while ensuring that Medicaid recipients may utilize any practitioner deemed to be qualified under State law. Since HEA 1210 does not limit a beneficiary's ability to choose among providers that are deemed to be qualified, it is consistent with federal Medicaid law.
In May, a federal judge refused to block the law [JURIST report] upon passage. But the June ruling from the US District Court for the Southern District of Indiana [official website] granting the injunction is in line with a recent US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] brief that urged the court to grant an injunction [brief, PDF] to stop the enforcement of the Indiana law [JURIST report]. The brief echoed arguments made earlier this month by the Obama administration, which argued against the law [JURIST report] in a letter to the stateone of several to have acted recently to tighten restrictions on abortions. In May, Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] filed a lawsuit [JURIST report] challenging a South Dakota law requiring women to seek counseling at a pregnancy center and wait three days before obtaining an abortion. Earlier that week, Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton vetoed a pair of bills [JURIST report] that would have restricted state funding for abortions and banned them altogether after 20 weeks. Also in May, Texas Governor Rick Perry signed a bill that requires women seeking an abortion to first get a sonogram [JURIST report]. Multiple states have acted to ban abortions after 20 weeks, when some studies suggest a fetus can begin feeling pain, including Missouri, Indiana, Alabama, Ohio, Oklahoma, Iowa, Kansas and Idaho [JURIST reports].

The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA) in collaboration with the Africa Centre for Cities (ACC) and UN-HABITAT are jointly hosting a workshop from 17-19 February 2009 in Cape Town, South Africa, to identify regional priorities that will set the agenda for a Sustainable Urban Development Network (SUD-Net) for Africa, the first regional network to be launched under the SUD-Net initiative.
The workshop will bring together representatives from cities, education and research institutions as well as existing networks dealing with urban development issues. They will be joined by key partners from local governments involved in policymaking and practice in urban planning and development.
African cities are currently confronted with the problem of responding to rapidly growing urban populations, while at the same time ensuring that cities remain inclusive, providing adequate shelter and basic urban services, ensuring environmental sustainability, as well as enhancing economic growth and development.
At both the regional and national level, there is a growing demand for initiatives to strengthen the capacities of local authorities, particularly within processes of decentralization and environmental changes and degradation, which have huge impacts on the economy and livelihoods.
If cities are to come to terms with these challenges, they require leaders, managers and communities capable of adopting innovative and robust approaches to planning, developing, managing and financing growth for all citizens. Thus, the role of integrated planning, management and governance needs to be highlighted further in response to these emerging threats through strengthened networks which work with clear agendas and address priorities within the regions.

CEPIN - Citizenship, Encounters and Place Enactment in the North
A Multidiciplinary Research School
Welcome to CEPIN - a research school for studying globalisation, and modernisation processes in the north.
CEPIN's research covers three themes/fields:
CITIZENSHIP: The questions and challenges of citizenship in an era of increasing mobilisation and multiculturalism. The rights and duties of citizenship have traditionally been tightly connected to well-defined nationality/ethnicity and nation-state borders. This has become problematic and is an important issue in the northern regions.
ENCOUNTERS: The increasing mixing and meeting - encounters - of people, artefacts, symbols, organisations and institutions from various cultural, national, ethnic and linguistic background. Our northern regions have experienced various kinds of encounters in the past, so our research agenda will include historical perspectives.
PLACE ENACTMENT: A typical trend within contemporary globalisation processes is an effort in many sites around the globe to appear unique, as especially attractive places with a striking and highly interesting identity. This phenomenon we call place enactment. It is particularly visible in tourism as efforts to promote and sell places and adventure. But it is also observable within more general public discourses on the identity and characteristics of places and is deeply connected to questions of who we are and what we will become.
Project organization: CEPIN research school is led by the following steering committee:
- Professor Anne Britt Flemmen
- Professor Willy Guneriussen (sabbatical year 2011)
- Associate Professor Siv Ellen Kraft
- Professor Einar Niemi
- Associate Professor Gry Paulgaard
- Associate Professor Jorunn Bræck Ramstad
- Research fellow Tor Ivar Hanstad
- Professor Torill Nyseth
- Professor Hallvard Tjelmeland
Head of research: in 2011 associate professor Siv Ellen Kraft
ABOUT CEPINCitizenship, Encounters and Place Enactment in the North |
PROJECTSProject organization, postdoctoral projects and research fellows projects |
PEOPLE / STAFFAdministration, steering committee, postdoctoral research fellows and research fellows |
EVENTS / ACTIVITIESNovember 14.-15. CEPIN research school arrange a final conference. The arrangement is open. There will be lectures, shorter presentations, panel discussions etc. Everyone interested in studies of (past and present) changes in the north are welcome (room: E-0101, HSE-fac) |

mod_reserve is an Apache2 module for Linux that extends the Apache HTTP server, allowing it to reserve a certain CPU bandwidth for the provisioning of a service. This module exploits the functionality provided by AQuoSA, whose API is used to reserve CPU bandwidth for execution of tasks. In this way, the module can force the Web server to provide services, like CGI or Perl scripts, using exactly the configured CPU bandwidth. This behaviour is useful in order to provide Quality of Service to certain types of services, or to prevent the kinds of attacks in which a service can starve all the others.
QtWebApp allows you to write standalone Web server applications in C++ as easily as Java Servlets. The HTTP 1.1 server supports persistent connections, sessions with cookies, and file uploads. It contains a template engine and a logger that can be configured at runtime. The application runs on Unix as a daemon, on Windows as a service, and on all operating systems on the command line. It is based on Nokia QT 4.7. Compatibility with QT 4.8 and 5.0 has been verified successfully.

Opponents of charter schools - publicly financed, privately operated - paint them as demon spawn that sap resources from public schools.
But increasing numbers of people, tired of their children being virtual prisoners of failing public schools, are willing to entertain the idea.
As Motoko Rich reported in the New York Times, the number of students in charter schools increased by almost 13 percent between the 2010-11 and 2011-12 school years. There are now more than 2 million American children in charter schools.
In some districts, the proportion is growing. In New Orleans, that happened because so many city schools were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.
"But in other districts, including Detroit, Washington, D.C., and St. Louis, more than 30 percent of public school students attend a charter school," Rich wrote.
Figures from the National Alliance for Public
Charter Schools show that in 110 school districts, at least 10 percent of students attend public charter schools. A year earlier, that could be said of only 96 districts.
In New York City, more than 48,000 kids attended charter schools in the last school year. That's only about 5 percent of the total enrollment, but it grew by 24 percent in just a year.

Changing Skyline: An elegant redesign for Ben Franklin - and Venturi
Ben Franklin was a great and fearless tinkerer, but even he might have been reluctant to mess with the Old City architectural icon that honors his life and work. The deceptively modest Franklin Court complex was designed by world-famous Robert Venturi for the 1976 Bicentennial, and it changed the way we think about memorials. The historic site reopened last week, after three years of planning, construction, and dire warnings of architectural Armageddon. Just as the experts predicted, everything is different. But different is also better.

Social Networking for Fashion Doll Lovers
I'm a third time around doll fan.
First when I was a kid, secondly when I played for hours with my daughter, and just recently I thought why wait for the grandchildren?
I've been inspired by blogs, photos and enthusiasts online...I don't know where I'm going with this but I am having fun.
I don't have room at home for a collection, so my idea at the moment is to give played with dolls a makeover, and then send them off to a new life.
At the moment I'm making clothes with recycled material, or cleaning and mending pre-worn doll fashions. (I made the jumper in the photo from some of my old knitwear)
Landmarks this week..my first doll haircut and I was able to let go enough to list the first of my makeover dolls on ebay. (she just needed her hair sorting and new shoes so I reckoned it felt less of a risk if nobody wanted her)
Tags: introduction, makeover
Hi Kate,
Sounds like a great plan to get back into dolls. We have lots of restorers and One-Of-A-Kind-ers here too, who will be able to give you any tips, should you need any.
I'm sure you'll find this a great place to help you out with your return to the doll world :)
Warm regards,
he Kate first thanks for joining Sew Much fun.
you did had basicaly the same path that I had. I never played with Barbie as youngster but started with my kids. then I rediscovered Barbie when in Canada and started sewing as well with re-cycled doll and cloth. it is so rewarding to give back her beauty to a doll that seems to be lost .
have a look at my blog the will give you an idea od my "trajectory"
Love the welcome on this site, thank you!
@ Simon, that's really good to know.

How was the amount of the proposed judgment determined? In particular, what calculations went into the determination of the $95 million penalty? Why, for example, is the penalty in this case less than one-fifth of the $535 million penalty assessed in SEC v. Goldman Sachs & Co. Why should the Court impose a judgment in a case in which the S.E.C. alleges a serious securities fraud but the defendant neither admits nor denies wrongdoing?
This is not the first time that Rakoff has questioned settlements between the SEC and major financial corporations. In February 2010 he accepted a settlement [agreement; JURIST report] agreement between the SEC and Bank of America after twice rejecting it [JURIST report; JURIST report] as unfair to investors. This is also not the first time the SEC has taken issue with Citigroup's dealings with investors. In July 2010 the two sides reached [JURIST report] a settlement in regards to the SEC's claim that Citigroup misled investors about it's exposure to sub-prime mortgage-related assets. That agreement penalized the company $75 million. It was also rejected in August 2010 when a federal judge demanded to know how it was reached and why the investors were forced to bear the majority of the cost, but not the majority of the executives. The settlement was approved [Reuters report] October 2010.

Girls, Gays Invited to Join Alternative Scouting Troop
January 18, 2013
© 5th Brooklyn Scouts/Facebook
File this under: If you can't join 'em, beat 'em.
One Brooklyn, New York, dad took such offense at the Boy Scouts of America's policy of excluding gay members and leaders that he went so far as to start his own all-inclusive troop.
Todd Schweikert's new 5th Brooklyn Scouts counts his 7-year-old son as its charter member and welcomes boys and girls alike of all sexual orientation.
"I felt like I had too much respect for scouting to succumb to the rules and polices of the [Boy Scouts of America]," Schweikert, a former Iowa Boy Scout, wrote in an email to The Huffington Post. "So I looked for other alternatives."
Hoping to inspire parents across the country to start their own charters, the 5th Brooklyn Scouts held their first open house Wednesday night, and are planning overnight camping trips to New York's Catskills mountains in the spring. More than 40 families and their kids have reportedly expressed an interest.
Plus: Gay Mom Barred from Leading Boy Scout Troop, Fights Back
Technically, it's not unheard of for individual chapters and troops to flout official policies against admitting girls or gay members, Schweikert didn't want any of his dues money to go towards an explicitly discriminatory organization. Instead, he asked an alternative scouting service, Baden-Powell Service Association, to anchor his troop.
"The tipping point was the BSA's approach to gay scouts and the gay and lesbian parents," he said. "Any form of discrimination, no matter how small, is never ok and not something I can endorse and wish to teach to my children."
Would you sign your kid up to a similar alternative scouting troop? Let us know.

Exactly what is the future of fee house worths in Studio city? LA, California? Humans love routines that go to prepare, Ben Bernanke, the high priest of Worldwide money gave alerting recently of a future change in ritual and disturb a bunch of his followers in Wall road. Will the current dramatic gains in fee LA residential property costs prove a short-lived installment because of this?
The housing market as a recovering person
Printing $85 billion a month for the last couple of years to keep rate of interest reduced has allowed the US housing market (by far the largest possession course of financial investment) to restore its footing. The housing market was the person associated with the collision. After extensive care with terrifying moments The $85 billion "medication" was carried out to bring the person back from the point, Now as the person regains toughness the medication is being taken out. The concern beckons? Has the patient come to be depending on the medication? The mere reference of a reduction appears to have triggered" withdrawal devices" with securities market swooning. In the current Senate hearing Bernanke moved to assure flustered financiers that had increased jittery. The Smart authorities understand nevertheless that the lengthy delinquent surge in the lengthy Bond return means that the a long time of historically ultra reduced rate of interest in the US is certainly pertaining to an end.
A wall of money
The US housing market HAS reclaimed its health and wellness due to the fact that the pre- situation uncommon surge in homeownership from the long-term historic norms has now scaled back to below average. Property buyers with fictional earnings servicing undersea debt have been switched out by a brand-new type of house investor. Hedge funds and exclusive equity players. have already nailed down Billions in financing at historically reduced rate of interest to take place a unprecedented acquiring spree. For the very first time, a wall of money from huge well funded institutional players & cash rich hedge funds are getting 10s of hundreds of family residences, frequently for less than the price of building them. They are concentrated on making a good-looking return by renting to families, many of whom were badly burned by the residence getting encounter. This wall of money is still pouring into the housing market due to the fact that it is not directly linked to the most likely future surge in rate of interest, The Folks in Wall road doing the heavy lifting have secured their money already when it was cheap. They have already seen a surge in the possession market value of their investments and therefore will certainly use this to take advantage of still bigger investments in house. Possibly. As current occasions have shown the markets still have the energy to shock.
Studio City Condos
Short-term outlook
It would seem that the huge gains in house worths of the last 12 months may moderate as a result of the "tapering" chatter that has unsettled financiers of late, nevertheless we do not anticipate a go back to a purchasers market for the factors stated. That said there are several unstable head winds that may unexpectedly appear- the unsettled eurozone situation that might unexpectedly become a monetary cyclone. And underground, unseen, those Iranian centrifuges are now mere months away from America's red lines. A residential property investor once asked Jacob Rothschild, "How did your family come to be so rich with residential property?" as the tale goes Mr. Rothchild responded with a droll smile, "We always sold prematurely."

The Phillies open the second half of the season with a big series against the second-place Marlins. The Phils came in to the set knowing they could come out tied atop the division with the Fish or as many as eight games ahead of them. So far, so good. The Phils rolled in game one as Jamie Moyer threw a one-hit shutout with help from Madson and Romero.
The Phils are on a roll and look like they have a chance to put serious distance between themselves and the rest of the NL East. That would be good for a lot of reasons, but one of them is that it would allow them to rest key members of the bullpen down the stretch.
You'll remember that the Phillies pen was fantastic last year. Durbin and Madson both finished in the top five in the league in innings pitched as a reliever, though. Durbin led the league with 87 2/3 innings pitched in relief and Madson was fifth with 82 2/3 innings pitched in relief. Down the stretch and through the post-season one of them was fantastic and the other faded badly. Durbin ended July last season with a 1.67 ERA and a 1.15 ratio. In his 27 regular season appearances to end the season he threw to a 5.40 ERA and a 1.70 ratio. In seven appearances in the post-season he was charged with just one earned run, but allowed seven hits and three walks in 3 1/3 innings (2.70 ERA with a 3.00 ratio). Madson, on the other hand, ended July with a 3.48 ERA and a 1.31 ERA and was fantastic the rest of the way. In his last 28 regular season appearances he threw to a 2.22 ERA and a 1.09 ratio. He followed that up with an awesome run through the playoffs in which he pitched 12 2/3 innings with a 2.13 ERA and an 0.87 ratio.
Durbin and Madson both find themselves in the top ten in the NL in innings pitched in relief again in 2009. Madson has again been fantastic early in the season this year while Durbin has struggled a bit. I think there's an added element this season as well — for Durbin, his struggles have meant that in addition to all of the innings he's thrown he's also had to throw more pitches to get through innings. In 2008 Durbin used 1,417 pitches to get through 87 2/3 innings. So far this year he's needed 836 pitches to get through 44 1/3 innings. At his '08 rate of pitches per inning he would have needed just 717 pitches to get through 44 1/3 frames. In 2009, Durbin is throwing about 1.17 times as many pitches per inning as he did last year.
For the 16 pitches who have thrown at least ten innings for the Phillies this season, here are the rates for pitches per batter, batters per inning and pitches per inning for each of them this year (does not include last night's game):
Pitchers per batter |
Batters per inning |
Pitches per inning |
T Walker R Lopez R Madson B Myers C Condrey C Hamels J Happ J Moyer J Blanton J Taschner C Park C Durbin B Lidge A Bastardo J Romero S Eyre |
3.52 3.67 3.69 3.73 3.76 3.82 3.86 3.87 3.91 4.06 4.12 4.14 4.24 4.25 4.33 4.38 |
T Walker R Lopez J Happ C Condrey R Madson C Hamels B Myers J Blanton J Romero S Eyre J Moyer C Park A Bastardo C Durbin B Lidge J Taschner |
3.82 3.97 4.08 4.21 4.21 4.24 4.30 4.35 4.40 4.44 4.46 4.47 4.50 4.56 4.75 4.88 |
T Walker R Lopez R Madson J Happ C Condrey B Myers C Hamels J Blanton J Moyer C Park C Durbin J Romero A Bastardo S Eyre J Taschner B Lidge |
13.45 14.56 15.54 15.75 15.79 16.07 16.22 16.97 17.25 18.42 18.86 19.05 19.10 19.44 19.81 20.16 |
A lot of pitches per inning isn't ideal, but the combination of a guy who throws a lot of innings plus needs a lot of pitches to get through an inning is worse. So I don't think we should be worried about Romero and Eyre needing a lot of pitches to go through a frame since they don't throw a huge number of innings. I do think we should be worried about Durbin and Lidge.
Durbin and Madson threw about the same number of innings in the first half of the season. Madson threw 44 2/3 and Durbin threw 43 1/3. Madson threw a lot less pitches, though. He threw just 694 while Durbin threw 836, which is 142 more. Madson has thrown 15.54 pitches per inning this season — if he threw at that rate he could have thrown about 54 innings with the 836 pitches Durbin has thrown compared to the 43 1/3 Durbin has.
In addition to the increasing number of pitches that Durbin has to throw to get through an inning, I think for both he and Madson you have to worry about the number of innings they are both pitching. You don't really want to see both of those guys in the top five for innings pitched in relief for the league every season.
Lidge is the other guy I think you have to worry about in terms of the number of pitches he's throwing. He's throwing about 20.2 pitches per inning this year after throwing 17.18 per inning last season. His pitches per innings is at the highest rate for his career with the exception of 2002 when he threw under ten innings. 2006 with the Astros was the other year where he really struggled — in '06 he needed just 18.01 pitches per inning.
Whether it's a physical problem or not, Lidge is either going to work through his struggles this year or he isn't. The worry, though, is that even if he does, by the time he does it he will have thrown so many pitches that he's worn out.
Clay Condrey could be activated for tonight's game.
Kyle Kendrick is engaged to marry a former Survivor contestant, which means that five percent of the Phillies 40-man roster is now engaged to or married to someone who has been on the show. Don't know for sure, but I would guess that leads the league.
With his home run last night, Ryan Howard became the player to hit 200 home runs in the fewest number of games in Major League history.
Philliesflow has a Twitter page.
Update: The Phillies activated Condrey and designated Tyler Walker for assignment.

The Fact-Finding Mission, the Commission of Inquiry on Syria, and I myself have all concluded that crimes against humanity are likely to have been committed in Syria. I have encouraged the Security Council to refer the situation to the International Criminal Court. All Member States must ensure that these crimes do not go unpunished. The Universal Declaration for Human Rights, adopted by this Assembly more than 60 years ago, makes clear that it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law. The people of Syria are asking for the rights that every human being is entitled to.
Pillay, as well as numerous human rights groups, have called for both an end to violence in Syria and ICC prosecution of Syrian officials. On Friday, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) [official website] requested [JURIST report] that Syrian officials suspected of crimes against humanity be tried before the ICC. Pillay has addressed the UN Security Council twice to urge ICC prosecutions [JURIST reports]. Last week the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) [official website] claimed that 11 months of violence in Syria has led to the deaths of hundreds of children [JURIST report]. Earlier this month Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] accused the Syrian army of torturing children [JURIST report]. In January, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon [official profile] demanded [JURIST report] that President Assad end violence against Syrian civilians. In November, HRW declared that Syrian forces were committing crimes against humanity [JURIST report], including torture and unlawful killings of anti-government protesters. JURIST contributing editor Chibli Mallat has argued that a UN Security Council resolution would not have affected meaningful change [JURIST op-ed].

Gregg Harper on Government Reform | |
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ (D, FL-20): We, as Members of Congress, have responsibility not just for the institution, but for the staff that work for this institution, and to preserve the facilities that help support this institution. We have endeavored to do that responsibly, and I believe we have accomplished that goal.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. SCALISE (R, LA-1): It's a sad day when someone attempts to cut spending in a bill that grows government by the size of 7%, and it's not allowed to be debated on this House floor. Some of their Members actually used the term "nonsense" and "foolishness" when describing our amendments to cut spending; they call that a delaying tactic. Well, I think Americans all across this country want more of those types of delaying tactics to slow down this runaway train of massive Federal spending. Every dollar we spend from today all the way through the end of this year is borrowed money. We don't have that money. We need to control what we're spending.
The House Ethics Committee's functions revolve around the standards of ethical conduct for members of the House. Under this authority, it:
In response to criticism of the House Ethics Committee, the House created the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), an independent non-partisan entity established to monitor ethical conduct in the House.
The House Committee on House Administration deals with the general administration matters of the United States House of Representatives, such as:
Congressional Summary: Resolution Disapproving of the President's appointment of four officers during a period when no recess of the Congress for a period of more than three days and expressing that those appointments were made in violation of the Constitution.
Text of Resolution:
OnTheIssues Notes:Pres. Obama attempted to appoint Elizabeth Warren to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in May 2011; House Republicans disapproved of Ms. Warren. House Speaker John Boehner disallowed the Senate's adjournment resolution, which meant the Senate was legally not adjourned and Pres. Obama could not make a "recess appointment" which would otherwise be allowed. This Resolution brings the issue to the fore again, for another set of Obama appointments for which House Republicans disapprove.

Trekking to my favorite Alm
We're headed to Nauders, Austria to begin our trek to Piengalm. This is what an old alm looks like. It was drizzling off and on during the trek to and from. The alm serves some unbelievable fresh milk. The old man (58) is great for taking photos of. He is very animated. After we left the alm (full) we ran into him again. He was looking for a missing cow. The bull and the new dog didn't do their job when they were herded in earlier in the day. No food for the bull ...
Old Time Hand Craft Displays
I mention this in my last story. I believe they had 400 or so displays. About half of the shots I took were in a video format. For some reason this is not allowing the videos to be played. They had a tractor parade shortly before we left. We stayed about 3 hours and I ...
Trek from Meranzalm
The total trek was 12.7 km mostly down hill. Karl said we made over 20,000 steps and it took us 4 hrs of solid walking. The trip started at 10 and finished close to 5:30. Other time accounted for was for picture taking, eating, outdoor bathroom breaks and one fall. Nothing serious. Some loose gravel and tired legs. That was Doris by the way. By the time it was over my puppies were barking ...

Okay, so I said no more pictures of Fendels. Well, I didn't know that our "Chef" was taking us for a higher walk around the same place that we went the day before. Different point of View.

Mutations in a Novel Isoform of TRIOBP That Encodes a Filamentous-Actin Binding Protein Are Responsible for DFNB28 Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 78, Issue 1, 1 January 2006, Pages 144-152 Hashem Shahin, Tom Walsh, Tama Sobe, Judeh Abu Sa'ed, Amal Abu Rayan, Eric D. Lynch, Ming K. Lee, Karen B. Avraham, Mary-Claire King and Moein Kanaan Abstract In a large consanguineous Palestinian kindred, we previously mapped DFNB28—a locus associated with recessively inherited, prelingual, profound sensorineural hearing impairment—to chromosome 22q13.1. We report here that mutations in a novel 218-kDa isoform of TRIOBP (TRIO and filamentous actin [F-actin] binding protein) are associated with DFNB28 hearing loss in a total of nine Palestinian families. Two nonsense mutations (R347X and Q581X) truncate the protein, and a potentially deleterious missense mutation (G1019R) occurs in a conserved motif in a putative SH3-binding domain. In seven families, 27 deaf individuals are homozygous for one of the nonsense mutations; in two other families, 3 deaf individuals are compound heterozygous for the two nonsense mutations or for Q581X and G1019R. The novel long isoform of TRIOBP has a restricted expression profile, including cochlea, retina, and fetal brain, whereas the original short isoform is widely expressed. Antibodies to TRIOBP reveal expression in sensory cells of the inner ear and colocalization with F-actin along the length of the stereocilia. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (2486 kb) |
The Y Chromosome Pool of Jews as Part of the Genetic Landscape of the Middle East The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 69, Issue 5, 1 November 2001, Pages 1095-1112 Almut Nebel, Dvora Filon, Bernd Brinkmann, Partha P. Majumder, Marina Faerman and Ariella Oppenheim Abstract A sample of 526 Y chromosomes representing six Middle Eastern populations (Ashkenazi, Sephardic, and Kurdish Jews from Israel; Muslim Kurds; Muslim Arabs from Israel and the Palestinian Authority Area; and Bedouin from the Negev) was analyzed for 13 binary polymorphisms and six microsatellite loci. The investigation of the genetic relationship among three Jewish communities revealed that Kurdish and Sephardic Jews were indistinguishable from one another, whereas both differed slightly, yet significantly, from Ashkenazi Jews. The differences among Ashkenazim may be a result of low-level gene flow from European populations and/or genetic drift during isolation. Admixture between Kurdish Jews and their former Muslim host population in Kurdistan appeared to be negligible. In comparison with data available from other relevant populations in the region, Jews were found to be more closely related to groups in the north of the Fertile Crescent (Kurds, Turks, and Armenians) than to their Arab neighbors. The two haplogroups Eu 9 and Eu 10 constitute a major part of the Y chromosome pool in the analyzed sample. Our data suggest that Eu 9 originated in the northern part, and Eu 10 in the southern part of the Fertile Crescent. Genetic dating yielded estimates of the expansion of both haplogroups that cover the Neolithic period in the region. Palestinian Arabs and Bedouin differed from the other Middle Eastern populations studied here, mainly in specific high-frequency Eu 10 haplotypes not found in the non-Arab groups. These chromosomes might have been introduced through migrations from the Arabian Peninsula during the last two millennia. The present study contributes to the elucidation of the complex demographic history that shaped the present-day genetic landscape in the region. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1387 kb) |
Leishmaniasis in Israel and the Palestinian Authority Trends in Parasitology, Volume 20, Issue 7, 1 July 2004, Pages 328-332 Charles L Jaffe, Gad Baneth, Ziad A Abdeen, Yosef Schlein and Alon Warburg Abstract Cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in the Middle East has been known since the early 1900s. Recent epidemiological studies show that they are re-emerging as important public health problems in areas long believed to be disease free. Cutaneous leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania tropica, has become a significant problem in northern Israel and parts of the West Bank, whereas zoonotic foci of Leishmania major in the Jericho area and Negev desert present a threat to increasing populations. Canine leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania infantum, is now highly prevalent in central Israel and encroaching on urban areas. Recent studies on the vectors and reservoir hosts, in addition to the molecular characterization of Leishmania, are helping us understand the dynamics of these diseases.

Massively parallel sequencing of targeted regions, exomes, and complete genomes has begun to dramatically increase the pace of discovery of genes responsible for human disorders. Here we describe how exome sequencing in conjunction with homozygosity mapping led to rapid identification of the causative allele for nonsyndromic hearing loss DFNB82 in a consanguineous Palestinian family. After filtering out worldwide and population-specific polymorphisms from the whole exome sequence, only a single deleterious mutation remained in the homozygous region linked to DFNB82. The nonsense mutation leads to an early truncation of the G protein signaling modulator GPSM2, a protein that is essential for maintenance of cell polarity and spindle orientation. In the mouse inner ear, GPSM2 is localized to apical surfaces of hair cells and supporting cells and is most highly expressed during embryonic development. Identification of GPSM2 as essential to the development of normal hearing suggests dysregulation of cell polarity as a mechanism underlying hearing loss.
