ETF Midweek Peek 0 comments
On Monday, a Bloomberg anchorman was on the trading floor and said to one of the traders, "So it's all about The Bernank?" To which the trader responded, "It's always about The Bernank".
On cue, the Fed Chairman has speeches scheduled and can say the magic word "QE" and fix a selling market (without actually even having to deliver the money). Unfortunately, as we saw on Tuesday, the magic spell is having a shorter and shorter duration. End-of-quarter window dressing is all the fashion for fund managers, but with a historic run-up without pause, nervous fund managers want to be the first to sell the top.
Nervousness was aggravated by the Case-Schiller housing data down 3.8% following the previous report of down 4.1%. Homebuilders were hit after a spectacular run-up on calling a "bottom" after the previous report. Calling a "new" bottom was met with skepticism and selling went through the sector taking any related industry with it.
AAPL continues to mystify the market chalking up over 50% gain in a single quarter and taking the entireNasdaq with it. Even in the most extreme overbought condition and declining volume, gravity defying gains are a daily routine. AAPL is a "must own" for fund managers this quarter. We'll see if it becomes a "must sell" at start of the 2nd quarter on Monday.

Air Jordan & Nike Basketball All-Star Showcase @ Kicks Lounge
February 20th, 2012 by John Kim | 44 comments
The annual NBA All-Star Game has served as a righteous platform for some of the greatest sneakers ever, and with Nike stepping it up a noticeable notch with the 'Galaxy' theme, it would be entertaining to look back at some of the best All-Star footwear of all-time. Luckily for us, Kicks Lounge in China held a special All-Star themed event, previewing the upcoming Nike Basketball and Jordan All-Star Collection and taking a trip down All-Star memory lane; the best Air Jordans, Nike LeBrons, Nike Zoom Kobe, and Nike Basketball were all up for display in a 'history lesson' of sorts, placing Michael's earliest All-Star selections like the Air Jordan III Black/Cement and LeBron's 'Remix' in the spotlight. Does the upcoming 'Galaxy' collection have the gumption to be considered as one of the best All-Star sneakers? Check out this nice recap of the All-Star Showcase @ Kicks Lounge and stay tuned to Sneaker News for some more NBA All-Star sneaker features this week! via hk-kicks

1999 : KG281 elected Bicycle of the Year
In the late Nineties, LOOK innovated the production of its frames and integrated considerable improvements in the design of the tubes. For example, the KG281, spearpoint of the 1999 range, is produced with tubes of different structures and variable thickness, with all the tubes different from each other depending on their place. They are reinforced in the heavy stress places (direction, saddle, pedals, back flaps) and lighter in the low stress places so they can reach a minimum weight for a desired rigidity. A true technological tour de force at the time, the production of a KG281 required a week's work.

1989 : KG 96 and the debuts of Jalabert
The KG 96 marks the turning of a technological corner: until then, LOOK frames had been made from tubes designed by TVT (the leader in tube composites at the time). With the KG96, LOOK developed its own blowing technology, created with the help of a Platilon, a flexible "pocket" inside the tubes. The carbon piece is inserted into a mould; after it is closed, the Platilon is inflated under high pressure and flattens the carbon piece against the walls of the mould. This technique enables better resistance to be gained, and the weight to be decreased, and is still used for the creation of certain pieces. Ceramic fibres were also used in the KG96 to strengthen the braid made from carbon and kevlar.
695 Alchemy pack
For a perfect combination of technological integration and esthetics, LOOK offers a limited edition 695 Alchemy pack, made up of the 695 White/Red frame, the EDH carbon handlebar and the Kéo 2 Max White/Red pedals.
Kéo 2 Max Colored Limited Edition

Krazy & Ignatz 1929-1930by George Herriman
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This volume is one in a long-term plan to chronologically reprint the entirety of the 28-year run of Krazy Kat's breathtaking Sunday page, most of which has not seen print since originally running in newspapers 75 years ago. Each volume is painstakingly edited by the San Francisco Cartoon Art Museum's Bill Blackbeard, the world's foremost authority on early 20th Century American comic strips, and designed by Jimmy Corrigan author Chris Ware. In addition to the 104 full-page black-and-white Sunday strips from 1929 and 1930 (Herriman did not use color until 1935), the book includes an introduction by Blackbeard and reproductions of rare Herriman ephemera from Ware's own extensive collection, as well as annotations and other notes by Ware and Blackbeard.
Of special note to collectors, this is the period when Herriman was again liberated from the "grid" constraints of the mid-'20s and was able to compose his pages far more creatively, resulting in richer, more complex, more eye-pleasing compositions. Krazy Kat is a love story, focusing on the relationships of its three main characters. Krazy Kat adored Ignatz Mouse. Ignatz Mouse just tolerated Krazy Kat, except for recurrent onsets of targeting tumescence, which found expression in the fast delivery of bricks to Krazy's cranium. Offisa Pup loved Krazy and sought to protect "her" (Herriman always maintained that Krazy was gender-less) by throwing Ignatz in jail. Each of the characters was ignorant of the others' true motivations, and this simple structure allowed Herriman to build entire worlds of meaning into the actions, building thematic depth and sweeping his readers up by the looping verbal rhythms of Krazy & Co.'s unique dialogue. Synopsis:-Designed by best-selling Jimmy Corrigan author Chris Ware
- Major review attention - Advance reading copies - Major historical appeal - Over 10,000 copies sold of first collection - Widely considered to be the greatest example of the comic strip artform Synopsis:Collects early twentieth-century comic strips featuring Krazy the cat, Ignatz the mouse, and their fellow Coconino County inhabitants.
Synopsis:This volume finds Herriman flowering into the peak of his inventiveness, liberated at last from the constraints of his syndicate's chosen format. Gorgeous cartoons are augmented by rare bonus materials.
Synopsis:Designed by bestsellers Jimmy Corrigan and author Chris Ware, this love triangle of the brick throwing mice Krazy Kat and Ignatz Mouse has major historical appeal, and is widely considered to be the greatest example of the comic strip artform.

Writing a Java Class to Manage RPM Package Content
Installing a Linux system for the first time is quite straightforward. You can find good and cheap Linux packages on the market that will quickly install themselves. You need only choose some configuration options describing the type of hardware on which you want to install, and that's it.
As time goes on, you will add some new components to your Linux system, and that's where the nightmare may begin. A Linux system is composed of hundreds of components and dynamic libraries. In order to keep your system up and running, you should be careful, since installing a new version of a component may introduce incompatibilities in your system, making it more unstable as time goes on.
Replacing an existing component with a new version at first looks like a trivial task: you just need to pick up a new compiled version of the component, generally available on the Net in a .tgz file (tar + gzip compression), and install it on your system. Some dynamic libraries of the component you just upgraded may already be used by other installed components and might not be compatible with the new version you just installed.
It would be great to have a tool which could report the dependencies of each component installed on your system. Such a tool could tell you the version of Samba (for instance) installed on your system or that you can't install egcs-1.0.2-8 on your system prior to having binutils 2.9 up and running. This tool already exists on Linux—it is called RPM—and is on many existing Linux distributions, including Red Hat, Caldera, SuSE and Linux Mandrake.
RPM stands for Red Hat Package Manager and is described by its creator as "an open packaging system available for anyone to use and works on Red Hat Linux as well as other Linux and UNIX systems" (from the Red Hat installation guide).
Before starting the programming discussion, I will introduce the RPM package manager and give a general overview of it. If you need more information, see Resources for more than 400 pages of interesting details on RPM's history, design, usage and programming.
The diagram in Figure 1 represents the different components involved in the RPM tool. RPM is composed of three main parts:
a database
candidate packages
RPM utilities, which modify the database and packages
The RPM database, located in /var/lib/rpm on Red Hat distributions, is owned by root; it is a mirror of all the packages which are presently installed on your system. The RPM utility accepts various commands which query the database for installed packages, install or update the system with new RPM packages, remove unused packages from the system, and verify and check installed package dependencies. Usually, when a new version of a given component becomes available on the Net, you have two choices:
Look for a tar gzip file containing the sources. Compile the sources on your system, then proceed with installation of the binaries. The given package generally provides a README, a make and make install procedure to help you.
Look for a tar, gzip file containing the binaries, meaning that someone else has already compiled the sources for you on the same kind of computer as yours. Then proceed with installation of the binaries.
Let's say you are interested in installing version 1.9.18 of Samba. First, you should look on the Net for an RPM of the Samba package (instead of a tar, gzip package). Once you have it, type:
rpm -uvh samba-1.9.18p8-50.1.i386.rpm
This command will install (or upgrade) a copy of Samba on your system. It will also check that all dependencies needed by this version of Samba are present on your system. If the rpm command completes with no error messages, you're guaranteed the installed package will be ready to run without trouble at the end of the installation process.
This installation process will also update the RPM database which keeps track of all installed packages on your system and all their dependencies.
So if, six months later, you want to find out which version of Samba is installed on your system, typing the following command:
rpm -q samba
will tell you
samba-1.9.18p8-50.1If you want to remove a package from your system, the RPM utilities will remove the files which were installed on your system during installation.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

Mono Master Item # GT045 |
$14.95 |
The "MONO MASTER" is an innovative device for handling and disposing of waist monofilament. Discarded mono lasts around 600 years, and when left streamside it usually ends up tangled around a bush, a heron or a trout. Shove it in your pocket and it tangles with fly boxes and tools, and is often accidentally dropped in the stream anyway. The MONO MASTER is the solution. Simply push waist mono into the slot in the side of the device (just to get it started) and spin the handle. Waist mono is "vacuumed" up instantly. MONO MASTER weighs nothing, holds up to 50 meters at a time, and is simple to empty when you get home. An easy way to prevent waist monofilament pollution.
Field & Stream Magazine proclaimed the MONO MASTER as the "Best of the Best" fishing gadget in 2009.

South Dakota State University's Ashley Eide has been named Summit League Player of the Week for her efforts against nationally ranked Nebraska on Dec. 21.
A 5-foot-9 guard from Sioux Falls Washington, Eide had 21 points, five rebounds, two assists and two steals as the Jackrabbits' upset bid came up short 80-71. Eide's high school coach was Aberdeen native Nate Malchow.
Eide and her Jackrabbit teammates resume Summit League play tonight, hosting Oakland in a 7 p.m. matchup at Frost Arena in Brookings.
Greenway earns award
Mount Vernon native Chad Greenway has been selected as the Minnesota Vikings 2011 Community Man of the Year.
Since being drafted in the first round of the 2006 NFL Draft, Greenway has been an active member of the team's community outreach. He has volunteered his time with several local organizations, including: Memorial Blood Center, Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, Sanford Hospital, University of Minnesota Amplatz Children's Hospital, Fuel Up to Play 60, Taste of the NFL, United Way and Make-A-Wish Foundation of Minnesota.
Greenway took his volunteerism to a new level when he and wife Jenni established the Lead the Way Foundation (greenway52.com) to enrich the lives of individuals and families who are in need medically or financially. For the past five years on Father's Day, the Greenways have partnered with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board for the Greenway's Gridiron Gallop 5k race, benefiting Minneapolis youth sports programming.
Greenway is now one of 32 team representatives in the running for the NFL's Walter Payton Man of the Year, which will be awarded at the Super Bowl.
42-41 in Military Bowl
Even the youngest head coach in the country knows not to expect the conventional from Air Force. After all, the Falcons had already scored three fourth-down touchdowns, including the one that had just tied the Military Bowl with 52 seconds to play.
So 32-year-old Matt Campbell, leading Toledo for the first time, wasn't surprised when Air Force lined up to kick the extra point and then ran a fake, going for two to win the game instead of sending it to overtime.
The Rockets were ready.
Holder David Baska got bottled up trying to run the option. The ball squirted toward kicker Parker Herrington, who chased it until it went out of bounds in the end zone, and Toledo started celebrating its 42-41 victory Wednesday night at RFK Stadium. It was the school's first bowl win since 2005.
Texas takes Holiday from California
David Ash threw for one touchdown and caught a TD pass to lead Texas to a 21-10 victory against California in the Holiday Bowl on Wednesday night.
The Longhorns (8-5) had five takeaways and sacked Cal's Zach Maynard six times.
The Golden Bears (7-6) are winless in five games against the Longhorns dating to 1959.
Ash caught a 4-yard pass from wide receiver Jaxon Shipley in the second quarter to join BYU's Steve Young, Texas A&M's Bucky Richardson and Oregon's Joey Harrington as quarterbacks who've caught scoring passes in the Holiday Bowl.
Texas coach Mack Brown joked on Tuesday how much it still bugged him that Harrington caught a TD pass in the Ducks' 35-30 win against Texas in the 2000 Holiday Bowl. The Oregon offensive coordinator then was Jeff Tedford, who has been Cal's coach since 2002.

Christmas 2012
Well hello! It's been a while. We were very blessed to be able to go visit Virginia and see all of our family this year, so I took a little break from the blog. (ok, a long break)
It was a long drive up there (over 21 hours each way), but we did it and I was so impressed with how my girls did. I was expecting the worst, but they pleasantly surprised me.
The girls were in heaven with all the family they got to see (and all of the Christmas' they got to have).
It was such a wonderful time and made me homesick.
There was lots of laughter, good talks, fun play, and good food.
Miss J was so excited to see her cousins and their animals. Now all she talks about is getting a bunny! Or 3......
It was also good to be back in the cold Virginia air. When we left Louisiana, it was still humid and warm so that was a welcome change! Of course it isn't so warm here anymore, but we are still a good 20 degrees warmer than there.
It's time now for me to work on some goals/resolutions/and all that good stuff. I'm a little behind with that since it is already January 6, but I've learned to have lots of flexibility! haha So happy new year to you and I look forward to spending another year with you all!

Will this work with MIDI Mobilizer II or IK's iRig MIDI does anybody know?! Getting a bit confused with all these different ways to get MIDI in & out of iOS devices.
Looks like a great app. Could be real useful.
I like the clear, uncluttered design on this app.
This looks very cool!
I agree. I love the fact that it's wifi, keeps the studio clean :)
Looks like a great companion for touchosc !

While in college, I went to see Paco de Lucia with my dad at the Guzman Center for the Performing Arts in Miami. My father plays classical guitar and Paco de Lucia was one of his heroes so seeing him in concert for the first time together was a really big deal for both of us.
I will never forget how my dad's eyes lit up as he watched this master flamenco guitarist play, how he tapped his fingers along with the music. 66-years-old was far too young to lose this legend. RIP.

"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in. Let it come in. We think we don't deserve love, we think if we let it in we'll become too soft. But a wise man named Levin said it right. He said, 'Love is the only rational act.'"

Flash mob delights Spaniards waiting in the unemployment line in a Madrid office with The Beatles classic "Here Comes the Sun." The soloist is marvelous.
Recall the reports in August about the well-intentioned woman who defaced this prized Spanish fresco in Borja? Well, according to this piece from PRI's The World, it looks like Cecilia Jimenez's botched restoration has now become an economic boon to the local community. Tourists are flocking to the town, filling bars and hotels. And even the Sanctuary of Mercy Church is cashing in:
"In the entrance to the sanctuary, custodian Jose Maria Aznar, tended the till, charging one euro to get in, and 12 euros for a lottery ticket bearing the image of the defaced fresco. Entry used to be free. Aznar said he's not used to handling so much cash, and messes up people's change all the time.
'Usually in mid October we get about 20 visitors a day during the week,' Aznar said. 'Now, its 150. And on the weekends, we're getting up to 1500 visitors. Everyone is really happy with what's going on.'
The money, Aznar said, is being used to maintain the sanctuary, and to support an old folks home."
What a magnificent few minutes of bird watching. I'm not a birder, per se, but the breadth and array of birds in Spain is remarkable — so many species and types of habitats. The filmmaker must have traveled thousands of miles getting these shots:
- Riglos and Valle de Tena (Pyrenees, Huesca)
- Bardenas Reales (Navarra)
- Montes de Toledo and Andújar (Jaén)
- Albufera de Valencia and Dénia
- Tablas de Daimiel (Ciudad Real) and Doñana (Huelva)
- Coast of Murcia and Almeria
Being an American, it's the Spanish Imperial Eagle that captured my imagination: large, powerful, majestic. (Oh, you'll know it when you see it!) It's something to behold. Here's a list of all the species in order of appearance:
- Bubo bubo
- Gypaetus barbatus
- Tichodroma muraria
- Chersophilus duponti
- Otis tarda
- Falco naumanni
- Pterocles orientalis
- Bucanetes githagineus
- Cercotrichas galactotes
- Aquila adalberti
- Sylvia hortensis
- Aegypius monachus
- Cyanopica cyana
- Galerida theklae
- Sturnus unicolor
- Dryocopus martius
- Dendrocopos leucotos
- Phylloscopus bonelli
- Serinus citrinella
- Montifringilla nivalis
- Pyrrhocorax graculus
- Prunella collaris
- Luscinia svecica
- Merops apiaster
- Upupa epops
- Circus pygargus
- Larus genei
- Porphyrio porphyrio
- Oxyura leucocephala
- Marmaronetta angustirostris
- Phoenicopterus ruber-Platalea leucorodia
- Grus grus
Beethoven's Ninth on a Spanish Plaza (video)
by Trent Gilliss, senior editor
Let's make no mistake here; this is a commercial for Banco Sabadell. And, yes, it's a majestic, highly orchestrated flashmob organized by one of Spain's largest banking groups. But, when I get an evening email from our founder and host confessing to shedding "happy tears" when watching it, I figure I better check it out.
And, if you read the comments on YouTube, you'll see much more of the same sentiment being expressed.
On May 19th at six in the evening, what appeared to be a single, tuxedoed street performer playing a bass for people strolling around Plaça de Sant Roc in Sabadell, Spain (just north of Barcelona) turned into a mass ensemble performing a movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony — including more than 100 musicians and singers from the Orchestra Simfònica del Vallès, Amics de l'Òpera de Sabadell, Coral Belles Arts, and Cor Lieder Camera.
The production is lovely and highly produced, but it's the fascination and pure joy of the passersby that makes the moment quite magical. Non?
Do You Know the Way to Sacromonte?
by Taline Voskeritchian, guest contributor, with photos by Tamar Salibian
The road may be — and almost always is — made of our footsteps, as Antonio Machado said, but there are places in the world, sacred sites, where arrival is at least equal to the effort of getting there, where our beginnings and our ends do actually know each other. The Camino du Sacromonte, which we recently climbed all the way to the Abbaye du Sacromonte at the very top of the trail is such a place.
We had begun rather unambitiously, meandering up and down through the alleyways of Albaicin, until we suddenly found ourselves on the Sacromonte trail. On one side was the lush landscape atop which sat the Alhambra; on the other side, and at a sharp elevation, we could make out the Abbey. It was a grey afternoon. We walked slowly and quietly, for there was not much sound around us save for a few tourists and locals, and the dogs of which there are an unusually large number in Albaicin. We stopped here and there, the landscape taking our breath away — literally. And then on a little bit more, and then another stop.
View of the Alhambra from the road to the Abbey of Sacromonte.
Then, it began to rain — first softly for a while, the droplets of whispers. The rain stayed with us all the way to the top, sometimes a mere hint, at other times a downpour. We continued walking for a long, long time, and then the rain became more ferocious as we made our way up the arch of the abbey. The path became more treacherous, but we persisted, stopping to catch our breath and then start again. For more than ten minutes, we ascended, our feet muddied, our hearts beating fast, our ears alert to the tiniest movement. But most of all, we were sustained by the smell of the absorbent landscape — the earth saturated with that moist fragrance, the vegetation holding the water in its roots but also on its surface.
Entrance to the Abbey of Sacromonte
It was not fear that seized me for that instant, though I may have expressed it in those terms. We're alone, there's no one around, just these two little women from Boston, speaking a foreign language, huddling against each other. It was awe, and awe is always mixed with an undercurrent of terror as though at any moment invisible figures — the ghosts of the gypsies for whose "education" the abbey was originally constructed in the seventeenth century — would suddenly jump out in an ambush. But it passed, that terror, leaving in its trail an unfamiliar but sweet sense of being gathered together, of being held, by the invisible hands and secret thread of the gods and their shadows, propelled by something transcendent.
We made it to the top and into the abbey, which was completely devoid of sound and sight. We sat in the foyer, looking out at the landscape ahead of us through the small iron gate. In the distance the Alhambra of the Muslims extended across the entire top of the mountains, and here, in this spot, the Christian abbey built on the grottos of the gypsies: a quintessential moment of faiths in violent embrace.
We sat for quite a while, looking ahead and inward, waiting for the rain to subside, which it did not. No sense of triumph, no sense of victory, but something else, pure and of this place, at this moment. Perhaps this is what faith feels like, we said. This sense of being on top of the world, held — contained is a better description — by something invisible, something beyond this religious edifice. But ask the question and you've subverted the sentiment, you've sullied the faith. But if not faith, then what?
There are places in the world where you can go down on your knees — even if you are a card-carrying secularist — and rail and curse and bless and thank your gods. Such places are removed from the push and pull of everyday life, from the noise and verbiage of human chatter. You can go down on your knees and when you come up again, you are less vulnerable, more resilient, at least for a little while — and a bit less wet. Camino du Sacromonte is such a place.
After some time, we decided to go down to the main road and find a way to get home. We did not have the foggiest idea, except that we had heard that bus #35 passed from the main trail.
We made it back to the main trail, and within five minutes, bus #35 came speeding through the narrow street. It was going in the opposite direction, up to the Abbey, but the driver motioned to us to jump in. Inside the bus was a rowdy, laughing bunch of passengers whose noise turned wilder with each jolt and turn of the bus. They all seemed to know each other, or acted that way, which is more likely. Before we made it to the top, the self-appointed "leader" of the gang asked if anyone was going to the abbey. No one was, and so with a rather wild turn of the steering wheel our driver took a right downhill turn, which I thought would land the little bus at the base of the ravine on its side and throw us into an accident from which we would be delivered to the community of ghosts that inhabit these mountains. But nothing of the sort happened though the swerve was pretty precipitous.
We made it back to the main trail and to the Albaicin. No doubt the gods and the ghosts were on our side, all of them that roam these lands — Christians, Muslims, Jews, the gypsies, the heathens, the believers, the kings, the commoners. Those who were burned at the stake, those who were occupied, those who were expelled, and those who built their monuments on top of the destruction, the mayhem.
The ashes. All in the name of faith. But if not faith, then what?

text: Numerous lawsuits are pending against BP in connection with the Deepwater Horizon spill. In August, Alabama Attorney General Troy King [official website] filed a lawsuit [JURIST report] against BP for damages to the state's coast and economy, claiming that the oil giant has failed in its efforts to accept responsibility for the oil spill. In July, a class-action lawsuit [complaint, PDF; JURIST report] was filed against the company in a Louisiana state court alleging that its negligent actions led to the spill and that BP was further negligent in its oversight of the cleanup effort, resulting in volunteers falling ill due to inadequate protective equipment. In June, two lawsuits were filed against BP [JURIST report] alleging violations of the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations (RICO) [18 USC § 1961 et seq.] statute. The lawsuits allege that BP purposefully defrauded the American public in order to increase company profits. Also in June, US Attorney General Eric Holder [official website] announced that the DOJ is reviewing whether any civil or criminal laws were violated [JURIST report] by BP resulting in the oil spill. Holder cited several statutes being examined by government lawyers, including the Clean Water Act and the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 [materials].

God, I love this line of attack because it's so on point (just like he fully "evolved" on gay marriage so he could get that liberal big money). Bottom line Obama's a con artist so always puts his base first, even when it comes to what's best for the American people:
In an appearance in Texas Wednesday, Mitt Romney charged that President Obama "knowingly slowed down the recovery in this country…in order to put in place Obamacare." The president's action, Romney said, "deserves a lot of explaining."
Speaking to an audience at USAA, an insurance and financial services company headquartered in San Antonio, Romney cited a book, "The Escape Artists: How Obama's Team Fumbled the Recovery," by the liberal journalist Noam Scheiber. In the book, Scheiber discussed Obama's thinking on the question of whether, early in his term, to focus more attention on passing a national health care law or to devote more energy to bringing about economic recovery. As Scheiber put it, Obama saw health care as a bigger long-term accomplishment. "There was a strain of messianism in Barack Obama, a determination to change the course of history," Scheiber wrote. "And it was this determination that explained his reluctance to abandon his presidential vision." So health care it was.
"I always admired the president's courage for recognizing that fifty years from now people would remember that all Americans had health care," former Obama economic adviser Larry Summers told Scheiber. "And even if pursuing health care affected the pace of the recovery, which was unlikely in my view, people wouldn't remember how fast the recovery from this recession was."
A few weeks ago, Romney began putting a reference to Scheiber's book into some of his speeches. Today, Romney signaled that he'll make the accusation -- that Obama neglected the recovery to work on Obamacare -- part of his larger case against the president.
Scheiber recently wrote that Romney is "misreading" his book. But Scheiber's explanation essentially conceded that Romney is, in fact, reading the passage correctly. 'While he's definitely misrepresenting Summers and the administration, there's a kernel of truth to his interpretation of my book," Scheiber wrote.
"I argue that Obama really was more focused on long-term, historically significant accomplishments than marginal, near-term differences in the pace of the recovery. On some level, Obama was prepared to accept (and I'm making up these numbers for argument's sake) three years of painfully high unemployment with health care reform rather than 30 months of painfully high unemployment without it. And the reason is the one Summers alluded to (before disputing): Health care was simply more historically important than avoiding those extra six months of pain."
The bottom line: On Obama's priority list, passing Obamacare ranked higher than economic recovery. Mitt Romney is likely to talk about that a lot more as the campaign goes on.

Installing Cydia programs on a phone that has no internet connection: read this.
Editing binary .plist, .strings, .nib and .xib files:
* on your computer: Windows tool / conversion website.
* on your iPhone: convert those files in a terminal with plutil (installed with Erica Utilities) or edit them with iFile (Cydia links).
Anyway, you should have jailbroken iphone with Cydia already installed. iTunes should be installed on the PC. Download openssh*.deb file from one of the suitable repositories to your PC. Use BigBoss repo, for instance. The filename is
Next you must transfer the file over USB cable from the PC to the iphone using DiskAid or something similar.
The next task is to let Cydia know about this new package.
I recommend this way to do
i.e. to create a folder /private/var/root/Media/Cydia/AutoInstall/ and drop the .deb file there.
instead of installing that software, a more portable way is to fetch a copy of iphone_tunnel:
start ssh on iphone, run iphone_tunnel 22 22 and ssh with winscp to localhost port 22
This can be portable too! All you actually need are winscp and iTunnel folders. First you run Launcher.exe in iTunnel, then winscp.exe. And of course, a batch file is a neat idea.
In order to make it work under OS3.0 you need to use iTunes 8.2 and replace iTunesMobileDevice.dll in directory where itunnel.exe is located with the new one from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin.
Itunnel could not work in my 64 bit win7, I find ispirit to replace now

After two stints as police commissioner, including the last 12 years under Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Ray Kelly is in what are expected to be his final few days at One Police Plaza. NY1's Dean Meminger sat down with him for a wide-ranging talk about terrorism, crime, and Kelly's legacy. The following is Part 2 of his report on that interview.
The time has come for Ray Kelly to hang up his police commissioner title. But don't expect for him to disappear into the sunset. "I love the department -- I've been here for 45 years," Kelly says . "I guess it is a bittersweet moment. but it's time to move on. I still want to do some things while I can still do things, if you know what I mean."
At 72 years old, Kelly remains active and fit. He says the challenges of heading up the country's largest police department have been energizing.
"For me it's been a terrific experience," says Kelly. "It's been a great run, as they say. I think people in New York should know they have the finest police department anywhere, that the men and women are committed to making the city safe and keeping it safe. And you can feel it, it's palpable." Crime, especially the murder rate, has dropped drastically over the last 12 years. There are several factors that contribute to that, but Kelly points to proactive policing.
But he admits that even he is pleasantly surprised by the major decrease in crime.
"If you said to me in January 2002, 'Hey, you are going to have a 6,000-person reduction in your head count, and crime is going down to record low numbers,' I would haven't believed it," he says.
But now he says the NYPD can push crime rates down even more.
"I think we have a lot of great people," Kelly says of the department. "I think we have some really good programs put in place. I want to live here, I want this to remain the safest big city in America, and I believe it will."
Asked if he'll miss the power of the office, Kelly says, "I will miss the people, that's obvious. There's a lot of bonding that goes on with all the years in the department. But as I say, I'm ready to do different things."
And asked if he would come back in two or four years if he got the call to be police commissioner of New York City or elsewhere, Kelly says with a smile:
"No this is it for me. I think it's time for the private sector."

Litigation Alleging Fraud, Deceptive Practices by PBMs
The major pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, have paid $370 million to settle claims of deceptive practices or fraud over the past decade, with other cases pending.
"The health benefit provider, however, often has no idea that a PBM may not be working in its interest. This lack of awareness is the result of the fact that there is little transparency in a PBM's dealings with manufacturers and pharmacies." – First Circuit Court of Appeals, 2005.
Plaintiffs have included the attorneys general of dozens of states, unions, private industry, pharmacists and others. In many ways, the cases are symptomatic of the lack of regulatory oversight of the PBM industry as well as the absence of meaningful transparency for PBM clients into pharmacy benefits management.
The specific charges relating to fraud and deceptive practices have included:
- Switching patients to more expensive drugs to pad profits;
- Shipping or billing for medication that was never ordered;
- Breaching contractual/fiduciary responsibilities;
- Soliciting and receiving kickbacks from pharmaceutical manufacturers;
- Inflating the costs of generic drugs; and
- Cancelling prescriptions.
