Cathy Newman checks it out
Is the nasty party back? David Cameron's tried very hard to put the compassion back into Conservatism, but he and George Osborne have made no attempt to disguise the brutality they say the economic situation demands. There was no end of pain in Budget 2010, particularly in the benefit cuts. FactCheck has been looking at who will suffer, and if the chancellor was right in his claims about the cushiness of housing benefit and child tax credits. And was he right to claim that the poorest – and the enterprising – will be spared the worst? Over to the team.
"We will for the first time introduce maximum limits on housing benefit – from £280 a week for a one-bedroom property to £400 a week for a four-bedroom or larger."
George Osborne, Budget 2010 speech
The chancellor seems to have got his figures wrong on this. George Osborne said in his budget statement the cap for housing benefit would be £280 a week; but in the red book the figure was £30 lower. Before you accuse us of splitting hairs, that's an extra cut of £1,560 a year – and it'll no doubt be keenly felt.
This cut is certainly going to hurt, particularly as the Department for Work and Pensions confirmed today the new cap will apply nationally. Labour MPs warn of a housing crisis in London and the South East, where rents are higher. For example, in parts of Hackney, the maximum housing benefit is £1,000 a week for a four bedroom house. Losing £600 a week would mean families currently claiming housing benefit would have to move to cheaper parts of London. Anti-poverty campaigners say that will entrench the divide between the haves and the have nots.
"Today there are some families receiving £104,000 a year in housing benefit."
George Osborne, Budget 2010 speech
There are – though not many. Latest figures from the Department for Work and Pensions reveal that just under 100 families got a payout of more than £100,000 a year. Families on housing benefit can claim up to half of the average cost of renting a private property in a local area. For a five-bedroom house in a swanky part of London, that weekly limit goes up to £2,000. But the average housing benefit payment is much lower – just under £84 a week.
"There are over 150,000 families with incomes over £50,000 receiving tax credits. Taking into account the various disregards means that families earning up to £83,000 are eligible for this means-tested benefit."
George Osborne, Budget 2010 speech
Families can get child tax credits so long as the joint income of the parents is less than £58,175 a year – something we looked at in detail during the election campaign. So surely Osborne is over-stating the government's generosity by quoting £83,000 instead?
But no – his claim stacks up if you take an administrative loophole into account.To reduce the overpayment headaches which dogged the tax credit system in its early days, the taxman now allows families who earn up to £25,000 more than expected to keep any extra cash rather than paying back the difference.
So if a family earning £55,000 – just below the tax credit threshold – bagged a £20,000 pay rise they'd still carry on getting tax credit payments until the end of the financial year. After that their new higher income is taken into account and the payments dry up – so the £83,000 loophole lasts for one year only.
"We have given our country some of the most competitive business taxes in the world."
George Osborne, Budget 2010 speech
The current 28p corporation tax rate (paid on business profits) is the 18th lowest of the 30 OECD industrialised countries. Osborne plans to start cutting this by a penny next year, until it falls to 24p in five years' time.This will, according to Ernst and Young, make the UK's corporation tax rate the 11th lowest in the OECD, and fifth lowest in the G20.
That puts us in the top quarter of the G20 league and just outside the top third of the OECD league table – assuming, of course, that our international partners don't follow tax-cutting suit in the meantime. So that puts us in line to become one of the more competitive business tax countries – but not top dog.
This isn't the whole picture. For example, today's VAT increase affects businesses that buy materials or sell to consumers (i.e. pretty much all of them). Currently the UK's VAT rate is 11th lowest in the OECD; the planned hike to 20 per cent means only 10 of the 30 OECD countries would have a higher rate of indirect tax.
"I can tell the House that the policies in this budget, taken together, will not increase measured child poverty over the next two years."
George Osborne, Budget 2010 speech
The coalition government endorsed Labour's target of ending child poverty in the UK by 2020. That was proving extremely tough for the previous administration – it failed to live up to its promise of halving child poverty by 2010. But has George Osborne just made life even harder for himself by increasing VAT – a tax traditionally seen as hitting the poorest hardest?
According to Mike Brewer, from the Institute for Fiscal Studies, it's possible the chancellor may be right that his budget won't lead to child poverty increasing for two years. That's because of the rise in the child tax credit. However, to meet that 2020 target, the government would need to be cutting child poverty, not simply stopping it increase. And notice that the chancellor has made no promise beyond the next two years – suggesting child poverty could once again rise later this parliament. That leaves that 2020 goal looking as elusive as an England World Cup win.
The budget book also contains a chart showing who the austerity measures will hit (p67). The chart (look at the dotted line for the net impact) shows that although the richest are the worst hit, the poorest are a close second leaving middle England cushioned from the worst of the blow. It's also worth pointing out the chart doesn't go beyond 2012-13. And we know (from table 2.1, p40) that more than half of the £11bn welfare cuts kick in after that date. So the chances are the poorest have more pain to come.
- Update: we've looked at whether the budget will really hit the rich more than the poor here.
"[The budget's changes are the equivalent of] putting every working man and woman in the city of Coventry out of work."
Harriet Harman, Budget 2010 response
Harriet Harman got a few cheers on the Labour benches when she claimed an entire city would be forced out of work by the coalition government.
Last week the independent Office for Budget Responsibility forecast 1.5 million people would claim unemployment benefit this year. That figure was forecast under Labour's plans to drop to 1.4 million in 2011 – a reduction of 100,000. But today's OBR forecast, which takes into account the effect of new budget decisions, is rather more pessimistic, suggesting 1.5 million will sign on in 2011 too.
Is this 100,000 differential the equivalent of turfing the whole of Coventry on to the dole? According to the ONS, there are 125,000 working people in the Coventry area.
Labour said it was guessing that around 25,000 workers lived in outlying areas, leaving 100,000 in the city itself. Harman was clearly using poetic licence but we'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps what's more surprising is how few working adults there are in Coventry.
Cathy Newman's verdict
George Osborne was right to highlight the largesse afforded to some housing benefit recipients. And few would quibble with his decision, in the current economic climate, to rob the richer tax credit claimants to help the poor. But by capping housing benefit nationally, he's sown the seeds of a Lib Dem rebellion in the capital and the South East. That, and the regressive nature of VAT, means the chancellor has got his work cut out over the next few days to persuade the British public he really is putting "fairness first".

In beach communities, the outdoor kitchen is a much prized
amenity. Making outdoor cooking, eating, and cleanup as convenient
as they are indoors can be a challenge. This month, Kalamazoo
Gourmet is rolling out another high-powered weapon for the high-end
barbecue arsenal: an outdoor dishwasher to accompany
Kalamazoo's other specialty appliances (grills, fridges, and
even a pizza oven or a wok-ready cooktop).
With stainless steel finish and an adjustable wash system to
accommodate large pots and pans, Kalamazoo says the new unit is
specially designed for the rigors of outdoor cookery and outdoor
exposures. For more information, check the company's website:

Vegan Fettuccine Alfredo with Broccoli and Roasted Vegetables (Sweet Potatoes, Brussel Sprouts, Beets) and Quinoa Salad.
*About Vegan Daily Eats
How did you make the fettuccine? please tell!
Hi Meg,
Thanks for checking out my blog and making a comment. I will make sure to post the recipe today. It is delicious!
Hi Meghan,
The recipe for the fettuccini alfredo came from the cookbook Skinny Bitch In the Kitch. Here is the recipe.
3 quarts water
about 4 3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 ounces whole wheat or brown rice fettuccini
1/4 cup refined coconut oil
1/2 cup vegan creamer
1/4 cup vegan parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups fresh peas, cooked or cooked broccoli (optional)
In a 4 to 6 quart stockpot over high heat, combine the water with about 1 1/2 tablespoons salt. Bring water to a boil, add the fettuccini, and cook according to the package directions.
Meanwhile, in a 1 to 2 quart sauce pan over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. When it's almost melted, whisk in the creamer, increase the heat to medium high, and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the Parmesan, pepper, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cover and set aside.
When the pasta is done, drain it, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water. Return the pasta to the pot and stir in the sauce (re-whisk if it separated) and peas or broccoli if using. If it seems to dry, and 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Transfer the pasta to plates and serve.

Cheese Boards
Slice, toss, dress, purée — dinner, with hardly any actual cooking.
On a hot summer evening, who has the energy, after the harrowing heatstroke of shopping for it, to actually make any food? Even if the children's teeth are strangely loose and you catch yourself looking up "scurvy" on Wikipedia? Here's an idea for a cool meal that even the weariest parent can prepare easily, and even the most swelteringly unhungry child will nibble gladly. Because life (and summer) is short. What did Groucho Marx once say? "Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana."
There used to be a restaurant called A Bottle of Bread, on the river not too far from our house, that served the kids the sweetest little wooden boards of bread and cheese and meats — and nothing has ever seemed so elegant to them, or so enticing on a warm evening, since.
Consider offering your children such a thing: a little breadboard or a nice tray with a piece or two of buttered bread, a few cubes of favorite cheese, a rolled-up slice of ham or salami, a few cucumber slices, and a handful of berries. It's a lovely way to eat, and you can serve whatever appeals: a quartered hard-boiled egg, a splotch of hummus, a leftover hot dog sliced up neatly, breadsticks, cubes of melon, olives ... just make sure it's pretty and cool.

Hello! I'm trying to configure my environment to start trying some code for my 5800XM.
I have a fresh installation of Windows 7 x64 and I started by downloading S60_5th_Edition_SDK_v1_0_en.zip and Carbide.c++_v2.0 and reading the "S60 5th Edition SDK Installation Guide". I downloaded and installed ActivePerl 5.10.1 Build 1006 (64-bit) and Java JRE. After that, I ran the S60_5th_Edition_SDK_v1_0_en setup.exe which installed successfully. However, I'm having trouble when trying to install Carbide.c++_v2.0.
On starting Carbide.c++_v2.0.exe the User Account Control dialog appears and I click OK. After some seconds of nothing, Windows 7 tells me that the installation failed and asks me to install with "recommended settings". Even with that setup, the installer won't proceed.
I read here that Carbide.c++ and the whole SDK seems to work fine in Windows 7. Any idea what could I be doing wrong? Thanks a lot.

Darcey Bussell has secretly signed a two year contract to keep her on the Strictly judging panel, TV Bizz has revealed.
Following her family's relocation from Australia for Strictly Come Dancing, it seems that the former ballerina wanted her future to be more secure.
A source told The Sun: "Her first outing divided people but she has grown into the role tremendously. The other judges love her as she knows her onions.
"And producers actually think she is better than Alesha."
Darcey is currently in a strong position if sources are to be believed. If producers sack her she is entitled to £100,000 for the second year of the deal.
But hopefully there is no sign of them firing Darcey just yet. BBC big wigs have been super impressed by the 43 year old's judging talent.
But things didn't start of so smoothly, Darcey was teased for using the word "yah" instead of "yes" in the first show and came over all hoity-toity.
However that's all in the past as the nation has well and truly warmed to the knowledgeable CBE.
Her popularity improved dramatically after she stood up to head judge Len and catty Craig.
What do you think of Darcey, are you happy to have the ballerina on the judging panel for a another year?
Or would you like to see a new face mix it up a bit? Check out the Strictly crew on BBC's Children in Need, as well as One Direction, Girls Aloud & more...

Adam Schefter was just on ESPN talking about how vulnerable the Steelers are to losing players in free agency due to the salary cap. Right now Mike Wallace is a Restricted Free Agent, which means any team that signs him would have to send a 1st round pick to the Steelers. Of course the Steelers would have the option to match the offer and that's where it gets interesting. The Steelers are still 11 million over the salary cap, so if a team offered Mike Wallace a contract with a big roster bonus (which counts against the cap unlike a signing bonus) the Steelers would be unable to match the offer.
The Browns and the Bengals are in prime position to make a move like this. We both have two first round picks, plenty of cap space for 2012, a need at WR AND an opportunity to weaken a division rival.
So what do you think? Assuming we made a splash in free agency and addressed our needs, would you be happy with the move?"

Coach Sports in Cape Town
In the school we work with, there are approximately 600 children, with 20 teachers. There are usually around 28 to 30 children in a class, but sometimes classes will be split into smaller groups when you are coaching/playing games on the field.
You'll most likely work with children who range in age from 5 to 13. English is not the children's mother tongue, but the general standard is about Fair to Good. 98% of the children at the school come from Cape Town's townships.
The school has a few basic sports facilities like a football field, basketball and netball courts, and cricket nets.
As a Travellers Sports volunteer you'll help with fun games and sports on the field during certain periods. The coaching sessions take place during Life Orientation classes, which is now part of the curriculum in South Africa.
Many of the teachers don't have any training or knowledge of sports coaching, so you'll take most of the sports sessions. You may coach on your own or possibly with other volunteers. You may even have a teacher to help you, and, if so, you can assist the teacher on how to coach a particular sport so that hopefully they can learn to confidently take a sports lesson themselves.
It is vital to use loads of initiative on this placement as you may have to 'round up' classes to coach during the day. Forming a good relationship with the teachers is a great way to achieve this.
What you'll gain from doing this Project:
- An exciting, never-to-be-forgotten adventure into South African culture.
- You'll learn a lot from experts in your field about how they work in a cultural environment that's different to what you're used to.
- New skills, more confidence, a greater understanding of a different culture, invaluable personal and professional development.
- An entry on your CV or résumé that will put you head and shoulders above most others in the job market
- And best of all ... an unforgettable experience!
Nestled under the mountain near the city, is the trendy and arty suburb of Observatory, the student Mecca of Cape Town. We have chosen this location as an accommodation base and make use of 33 South Backpackers Lodge, where you will be staying. It's distance from the projects, safety conscious attitude and very friendly staff make this the ideal home away from home. 33South is not just a backpacker's lodge, it's an experience! With secure access, 24hr managers on duty, they uphold a very high safety and security standard. The night manager is also a lovely welcome 'home' after a night out… and bakes fresh muffins for your breakfast!

Guam - The Marianas Judo Association hosted Judo Instructors from Tokai University in Japan as part of a training camp that was held at the Maite Dojo. The camp was intended to develop Judo on Guam and to further enhance peace through sports. The group included Dr. Toshiaki Hashimoto, Yasuhiro Yamashita, Mr. Teruyoshi Yamaguchi, Mr. Yusaku Sato and Mr. Ryukou Noguchi who are both All-Japan high school champions and sambo champions.
Gen Imai with the Marianas Judo Association told KUAM Sports, "We have a group of instructors from the Tokai University from Japan. They are here teaching us techniques and a lot of the basic fundamentals and the help of developmental of Judo here on Guam. This experience for my students have been really good because they get to see the technique that comes from the originating country of the sport of Judo. So they see the technique and with these instructors from Tokai University they come from the best Judo University in Japan and are recognized all over the world where a lot of Olympic champions and world champions from Japan come from."
Ric Blas Jr. credits a lot of his success to the Tokai University the place where he trains in preparation for international competition. Blas adds that sensei Yamaguchi has had a big influence in the development of his game and says that the camp will definitely help the sport evolve on island.
Blas said, "These guys from Tokai University come out here and they are known to create some of the sports top players and the biggest names in Judo so it's really great that they are out here. Even if we have elite players here they are just back here touching up on their technique and getting the basics down. It's always good to go back and review what you have learned in the past.And these guys are here making sure that the technique is refreshed and up to date and it's a good developmental program for the kids.
"So hopefully with this program we will have more coming out and build a better relationship with Tokai University. I'm always there training, they have been a big part in my preparation for both Olympic Games and so it's a big honor for them to come out here and take their time to help teach our kids. I hope more people come out and see that with this great relationship we can create more elite players and hopefully a better future for Guam Judo."

Vanity Fair (Bantam Classic)by William M Thackeray
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A deliciously satirical attack on a money-mad society, Vanity Fair, which first appeared in 1847, is an immensely moral novel, and an immensely witty one. Called in its subtitle "A Novel Without a Hero," Vanity Fair has instead two heroines: the faithful, loyal Amelia Sedley and the beautiful and scheming social climber Becky Sharp. It also engages a huge cast of wonderful supporting characters as the novel spins from Miss Pinkertons academy for young ladies to affairs of love and war on the Continent to liaisons in the dazzling ballrooms of London. Thackerays forte is the bon mot and it is amply exercised in a novel filled with memorably wicked lines. Lengthy and leisurely in pace, the novel follows the adventures of Becky and Amelia as their fortunes rise and fall, creating a tale of both picaresque and risqué. Thackery mercilessly skewers his society, especially the upper class, poking fun at their shallow values and pointedly jabbing at their hypocritical "morals." His weapons, however, are not fire and brimstone but an unerring eye for the absurd and a genius for observation of the foibles of his age. An enduring classic, this great novel is a brilliant study in duplicity and hypocrisy…and a mirror with which to view our own times.
"Vanity Fair" is a story of two heroines--one humble, the other scheming and social-climbing--who meet in boarding school and embark on markedly different lives. Amid the swirl of London's posh ballrooms and affairs of love and war, their fortunes rise and fall. Through it all, Thackeray lampoons the shallow values of his society, reserving the most pointed barbs for the upper crust. What results is a prescient look at the dogged pursuit of wealth and status--and the need for humility. Reprint.
About the Author
WILLIAM MAKEPEACE THACKERAY was born in India to a long line of Yorkshire gentry recently mixed with equally ancient gentry. In 1817, two years after the death of his father a prosperous official of the East India Company, the boy was sent back to England. There he underwent the proper education of a young gentleman, including rounds of laziness and dissipation at Cambridge, where he made the acquaintance of Tennyson and other notables, and later at the Middle Temple.
He next crossed to Paris, where he studied art and made a love match with Isabella Shawe, whom he married in 1836, overcoming strong maternal resistence. The couple returned to London, where Thackeray embarked on ten years as a journalistic hack-of-all-trades. Meanwhile, two daughters were born and lived, Anne (1837) and Minny (1840), but one, Jane (1838) died after eight months. The serial publication of VANITY FAIR in 1847-48 ended Thackeray's days as a minor journalist and he went on to become the author of miscellaneous satires and reviews, including essays, lectures, and seven novels. After a period of deteriorating health, Thackeray died during the early hours of December 24th, 1863.

Since watching the Wild has been boring and depressing recently, I would like to think about something else. How about Zach Parise? I know the Hockey Wilderness team did a post recently about the Wild's chances to sign Parise or Suter during the offseason (link here), but I wanted to expand the post to look at which other teams Parise might sign with.
Now I know that the only person who knows where Parise will sign next year is Zach himself. But that won't stop me from speculating! So while I am avoiding work, I thought it would be fun to give each team that might sign Parise a percent chance of signing him. By the way, if you have any ideas to improve this post, lemme know and I'll edit it!
To do this, I started by taking a look at each team's cap space this year on Capgeek. I eliminated any team which is currently close to the salary cap, thinking that even if they have a lot of contracts off the books next year, they will be focused on re-signing their own talent. So Philly, Calgary, Vancouver, Washington, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Boston, Montreal and Toronto are out of the running. Then I did the opposite and looked at teams that are currently close to the cap floor right now (figuring they also don't have the cash for a big contract). This eliminated Colorado, New York Islanders, Dallas, Carolina, Nashville, Ottawa, Winnipeg, St. Louis, and Phoenix (duh!).
Then I went through the list of team's left, and gave each team a rating out of 10 in the following categories: the team's financial Ability to pay Parise's salary, the attractiveness of the city / climate, how much the Team needs Parise and how well he would fit in their roster, and how good the team is. Let's get to the results!
Ability to Pay: Questionable. Capgeek has their projected cap space at $20M for next season, but rumors on the street are that the team has cash flow issues, in which case they might not be able to spend to the cap. Other than Parise, both NJ goalies are UFAs next year, so they will have to spend at least $4-5M in net. Kovalchuk's $6.7M cap hit and Zidlicky's $4M a year (What were they thinking?!) do not help matters. The Devils get a 5/10 - they could maybe swing a big contract, but it'd be tough.
Location attractiveness: Location of this. Need I say more? 3/10
Team need / fit: Parise fits nicely onto their top line with Kovalchuk and Henrique. His two-way play fits their defense-first system perfectly. 9/10
Quality of Team: The Devils are a pretty good team - in the past five years they have finished 1st, 2nd, 1st, and 4th in their division - the fourth place finish coming when Parise only played 13 games. That said, I don't see them having the depth to make a deep playoff run. 7/10
Parise Possibility Points = 23 + 5 hometown points (he's played for NJ his whole NHL career) =28
Ability to Pay: The Rangers have a history of bringing in superstar free agents. But with the amount of money they have tied up in Gaborik, Richards, Dubinsky, Callahan, and Lundqvist, it would be a stretch for them to sign Parise as well. 2.5/10
Location attractiveness: New York, New York! A center of culture - lots to do, lots to see. It is crowded and expensive (but would this matter if you made $8 million a year?) 7.5/10
Team need / fit: Despite having the best record in the Eastern Conference this year, the Rangers are only 11th in the NHL in scoring. They're also know for a stingy defense, so I'd have to say Parise would fit great. 9/10
Quality of Team: The Rags are for real. They're a talent-filled team that's primed for a good playoff run, and the most important players on the team are all signed for at least a year or two. 8/10
Parise Possibility Points = 27
Ability to Pay: The Sharks also have signed a lot of free agents in their time, but Capgeek has their payroll next year at $55 Million, and they have about 10 guys that will be UFAs/RFAs. Plain and simply, the Sharks can't afford Parise. 0/10
Parise Possibility Points =0
Would YOU go here if you were Parise? I'll move on...
Ability to Pay: The Lightning are projected to have $17M in cap space next year and have shown a willingness to spend under new ownership and Yzerman as GM with $30M in a recent stadium renovation... looks like they have the ability to offer a big contract if they want to 9/10
Location attractiveness: I wouldn't mind living here, would you? Plus there are plenty of local attractions if you get bored...10/10
Team need / fit: The Lightning play a trap similar to the Devils where Parise would be right at home, but they need some serious help on D and in net. I have to think they will go after D-men and Goalies first this offseason... 4/10
Quality of Team: The Lightning won a cup back in 2004 with Tortorella as coach, and then descended into mediocrity. They went on a great run to the conference finals last year, but came back to earth this year and are currently 10 points out of a playoff spot. Kinda an inconsistent team - I'll give 'em 5/10
Parise Possibility Points = 28
Ability to Pay: Doubtful - $55M already signed against the cap next year with multiple roster holes to fill. 2/10
Location attractiveness: Low. 2/10
Team need / fit: Low... with Kane, Toews, Hossa, Sharp, and Bolland all signed for a while, the 'Hawks biggest need right now is on D. 2/10
Quality of Team: Won a cup in 2010 but then lost a lot of their depth players that helped them do it. Still have a pretty solid core, though, and I expect them to be in the playoffs every year for a while. 7/10
Parise Possibility Points =13
Can't afford Zach. Moving on...
Ability to Pay: Now we're talking! Through solid roster management and Lidstrom's impending retirement (I assume he will finally retire...), the Wings are projected to have $20M in cap space next year. Now, this is not including new contracts for Brad Stuart, Kyle Quincey, Jiri Hudler, Filppula, Helm and Abdelkader. But even after re-signing them I expect the Wings to have at least $9-10M in cap space. I give the Wings an 8/10
Location attractiveness: Low, but they have good hip hop... 4/10
Team need / fit: An all-star two-way center on the Wings? No way. 9/10
Quality of Team: The Wings are perennial contenders. With the possible exception of the Canucks, it doesn't get any better than this. 10/10
Parise Possibility Points = 31
Ability to Pay: I'm not sure....the Ducks don't spend to the cap, but they should have some extra cash next year if Selanne retires. Capgeek has them at $23M in cap space next year, but they will have 9 UFAs. That's a lot of players to sign in addition to Parise. I'll give the Ducks 3/10
Location attractiveness: Uh-huh........ why am I not living there right now? 9/10
Team need / fit: He could be the replacement for Selanne, but Anaheim is already pretty set on their top line. 5/10
Quality of Team: Eh, the Ducks are ok. Everyone knows their first line is insane, but their depth goes to shit after the second line. 5/10
Parise Possibility Points = 22
Our Very Own Minnesota Wild
Ability to Pay: Oh, indeed. Capgeek projects the Wild to have $18M in cap space next year with about 12 UFA/RFAs. Here's to hoping the Wild don't sign half of those bums.... anyway, the Wild should still have over $10M in cap space to go after Parise after signing their RFAs. 9/10
Location attractiveness: Hmmmmm......... it does get cold here, I can't lie. But Parise grew up here, playing Midget hockey in Faribault. The Wild will have to try to play up some nostalgia, and also the fact that people here love their hockey. 8/10
Team need / fit: What team could need a scorer more than the 30th place team in goals per game? You know the Wild will go hard after Parise. 10/10
Quality of Team: I'll have to try to take off my homer glasses...... the Wild are not good. We haven't qualified for the playoffs in 3 years, and we are about to complete a historic collapse that took us from 1st in the NHL down to 25th. That said, a lot of this year's collapse was due to injuries. Also, the prospect pipeline is good and the trend should be positive after this year, but most of the prospects are still a year away from the NHL... I give the Wild a 4/10
Parise Possibility Points = 31
Ability to Pay: Here's another team I'm not sure about. Until recently, the Panthers were a cap floor team, until last year they went on a spending spree that had them acquiring the likes of Campbell, Versteeg, Fleischmann, Wolski, and others. This year they had about $8.5 Million in unused cap space, and they are actually winning their division right now (though with only 74 points). They have salary cap space, but I think like the Lightning they do not have a lot of cash. 5/10
Location attractiveness: Yep. That looks especially nice when there's a fucking shit-ton of ice everywhere in Minneapolis. 9/10
Team need / fit: Florida's 24th in goals per game. I'd say they could use him. 8/10
Quality of Team: Not great, not awful. 5/10
Parise Possibility Points =27
Final Scores and % Chances each team signs Parise!
New Jersey -28 = 13.6%
New York -27 = 13.1%
Tampa -27 = 13.1%
Chicago -13 = 6.3%
Detroit -31 = 15%
Anaheim - 22 = 10.6%
Minnesota - 31 = 15%
Florida - 27 = 13.1%
And finally, what do you think?

If Aspies are everywhere in high tech, that means there's a greater than average chance you work with someone, or several people, who have Asperger's Syndrome. Maybe even your boss. Or your boss's boss. Maybe all the way up the food chain.
Grandin isn't alone in occasionally playing a bit of a parlor game, guessing which players in the IT industry have Asperger's, either undiagnosed or simply unacknowledged publicly.
"I read a lot of profiles of big names in the industry in the magazines or I'll see them on TV. I know [they have] Asperger's," she says. "I'm not going to say their names, but people in high places in the tech industry, some of them clearly [have] Asperger's."
Incendiary? Perhaps, but it's nothing compared to the naming of names that happens on various Aspie and IT-related message boards, Web sites and blogs.
Aside from some usual suspects from history (Isaac Newton, Emily Dickinson, Albert Einstein) and fictional pop culture (Mr. Spock, Mr. Bean, Sherlock Holmes), the name that most often comes up Aspie is that of the Master Geek himself, Bill Gates.
It's also the one most often shot down by Aspies who say a true Asperger's individual could never endure the social requirements of Gates' public life. A spokeswoman who handles inquiries regarding Gates' personal life declined to comment for this story.

Baseball Coaches and Staff
Head Coach
Steve Ward
Steve Ward has stepped back into the position of head coach of DVC baseball.

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
"Don't be afraid your life will end;
be afraid that it will never begin."
— Grace Hansen
"When opportunity comes, it's too late to prepare"– John Wooden
The most important thing in life is not what you do, it's who you become.
Dallas Willard
The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.
Ancient Chinese proverb
In the past several posts I've been writing and commenting on the top five regrets of the dying as reported by Bronnie Ware. To refresh your memory here are these regrets:
5. I wish I'd let myself be happier.
4. I wish I'd stayed in touch with my friends.
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
Review these and evaluate where you are today. Are you experiencing regrets? Hopefully you have time to evaluate and make corrections.
I am sitting in a conference room as I write this post, and reflecting on my life. Am I living a life that is true to myself, or am I allowing other's expectations to drive me? The conference is on "Motivational Interviewing" and the topic fits with the post. I am living closer to my authentic self than I ever have and the experience is mixed.
In the old days of living a life driven by desire to please others the rules were clearer than they are living a life of authenticity. However, the difference between the two is massive in terms of satisfaction and freedom. I am free every day to evaluate and decide for myself what the most important task is for this day.
At the same time there are no others that can set the boundaries or rewards. Freedom allows for boundary-less living, but being free requires change.
Change is often difficult. We want to have a life that is lived without regrets, but there always seems to be something that keeps us chained to the "old" life. Often these chains develop in childhood. Co-dependency is common in children. We are trained to please our care-givers and punished if we do not. Quickly most children learn to obey, be compliant and learn to put one's own desires on hold in favor of pleasing others.
Don't misunderstand what I am saying here. It is a value to work cooperatively with others, to be a team player and be productive. The challenge is to not lose oneself in the process. Living life without regret requires us to allow our selves to be happer, to remain in touch with friends and families, and to honestly express one's feelings. A life true to self is balanced with ample time for work and relaxation, and most of all, a life without regret will be authentic, true to one's self and as free as possible from being over influenced by the demands of others.
The question you may have now is "how." How does one live an authentic life?
I'll be posting about this in upcoming articles. Stay tuned.
Writing exercise of the day: Write abut a time in your life when you felt compelled to please others. What did this look like? How did it feel? Were you able to break free of this desire to please others? How were you able to break free and be authentic?
I wish I'd let myself be happier.
This is the fifth regret of the dying as reported by Bronnie Ware in her book "The Top Five Regrets of the Dying." Few people discover that happiness is a choice, not an event. In reality happiness is a byproduct of involvement in tasks that one deeply enjoys. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi in his classic work refers to the experience of deep happiness in terms of "flow". "Flow" describes being unified with one's environment, fully engaged and involved in an interesting task or project so much so that time and space disappear and all that remains is pure experience. He refers to these as "peak experiences" and those who have had such times recall them as being very enjoyable, creating a longing for more. The experience of flow is allowing oneself to be happy. This is a learned skill and one that can be taught. Here's an example.
My friend, a young father, was reporting to me on work we had been doing together on assisting a younger generation to be responsible and doing for self rather than having problems solved for them. His son, age three, came to him and asked him to help him get up on a shelf in order to get something for his mother. "Dad, I need to get this thing off the shelf and I can't reach it". This wise father asked his son "How do you think you can get it?"
The first response was "I don't know" to which the father replied "Think about it."
After a few moments of thinking the son stated "I can move that chair over to the shelf and then climb up on the chair and get what I need!" The father affirmed him and so the little boy dragged the chair over to the right spot and then climbed up and got the item. He ran off with it to his mother.
Soon he returned. "Now I have to put it back" he told his father. "Well, what should you do to do that?" asked his father, and the little boy dragged the chair back to its original place, put his hand on his chin and tried to think again about the process of solving this problem.
I hope you get the point. The little boy had enjoyed solving the problem so much the first time that he want to re-experience the joy of discovery, the peak experience of learning to do new things that comprise almost all play of children.
The sadness for us as adults is that we lose the joy of learning, of experimenting, of trying new things, fully aware that most things we try will not solve the problem, but knowing that joy is in the learning. Constant learning is choosing to be happier.
Happiness becomes a choice for me in terms of how I choose to face situations. I can choose to be happy in any circumstance as I discipline myself to discover the learning moment. It is in that moment that I become childlike again and discover new ways of solving problems. This happiness is available to all of us, no matter what age, no matter what stage of life.
Choose to be happy and remove one of the major regrets of the dying. This is living life without regrets.
Task for today: Write of a time when you had a "peak experience." Did you find the moment enjoyable?
I will wrap up this series in the next post.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This is a fun route that deserves more traffic. Find it on the SE corner of the main Rock of Ages cliff: a thin crack on a hanging slab, above an overhang. It's somewhat dirty, but not as bad as it looks, and the moves are super fun. An overhanging boulder problem start past fixed gear leads to a good rest; the finger crack above is pretty solid 5.11 and gear is pumpy to place. Save some guns for the finger stacks at the end! The route as a whole is safe to lead but somewhat spicy.
1 fixed rp + 1 fixed pin, then standard rack (heavy on thin stuff)

How do you set financial goals and give yourself the very best chance of achieving them? Understanding how to do this properly and then manage your tasks and activities accordingly can be a struggle.
Setting financial goals in our business can feel like a daunting task. Most people resist it because they don't know how much to expect they'd earn and they also don't want to end up disappointed. This approach however leads us into trouble because everyday we are spending money and running up cost, thus we need to make sure we are replacing that money by earning it back.
For most small businesses wondering about setting financial goals, I recommend having two targets. One is the 'Must Earn' figure that covers the overheads of the business and living, and the other is 'Goal Figure'.
Every day we need to be focusing on activities that bring in the money that we need to meet our 'Must Earn' goal, otherwise we are eating away at our savings or building up debt.
In the early days of your business it really doesn't matter where you earn the money to pay for your 'Must Earn' goal, just as long as you do. You must put enough time aside each week into guaranteeing that that money is coming in.
When you take this approach you'll find yourself asking better questions of yourself, and always focusing your business on profit making activities. Many entrepreneurs can suffer from 'Creativitus' – an addition to always making things and never selling. It is important in your business that you have a mixture of activities and focus on selling, at least to meet your 'Must Earn' figure.
A lot of entrepreneurs experience resistance when it comes to setting their 'Goal Figure'. This is usually because they have experienced failure with this in the past and don't want to disappoint themselves. However, without this goal being in place, we fail to ask the right questions of ourselves and structure the business in a way that will lead it to make good income.
Here is how to handle it. When you set your goal figure for the year, you'll need to divide it by 12 to find the monthly figure. However, this isn't your goal for the next 12 months, but rather a baseline that you're aiming for from here onwards in your business. As you grow in your business you can raise this figure.
Your goal is to aim to earn this figure in your business, however, if your business is new or you are currently some way off this figure with your current contracts and activities, you'll need to make those monthly goal to be lower and more achievable in the first three months. Then over the months this figure should go up in increments and add up to your Goal Figure for that 12 month period.
By doing this you will find you've given yourself a 'grace' period in your early days with a realistic income target, you'll be asking better questions of yourself and thus producing better results that lead you to be able to hit these higher income goals and feel amazing when you have achieved them.
What is better, at the tail end of the year you'll be earning the higher income target and managing your business accordingly. There is no need for you to reduce your activities or your income target, thus in your second year you'll be able to earn this high figure every month, making your second year even more profitable.
On this to note however: if your income goes up as well as your spending, they'll be no profit. Aim to keep your spending the same no matter what your earnings.

"I was born here." Mrs. Patterson didn't look up as she spoke, her voice inaudible, lost in the cement, concrete, doorways, truck exhaust, honking horns, brick walls and glass storefronts of downtown San Francisco. Her skin, the color of earth and wind, land and nature, was camouflaged in long ago lost clothing, shredded blankets and plastic ware.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP), an organization celebrating 20 years of promoting access to and success in higher education for all students, announced today recipients of its inaugural IHEP Champions of Access and Success Awards. Winners of the "Institutional Champions of Access and Success Awards" and "Champion of Champions Awards" include postsecondary institutions and individuals who have successfully advanced strategies that increase opportunity, persistence, and degree completion for low-income, first-generation, minority, veteran, and other underserved students.
Recipients of the Institutional Champions of Access and Success Awards are being recognized for scaling and institutionalizing their access and success strategies. Awardees have strong leadership, faculty, and staff who are committed to achieving positive outcomes for students. Each institution has put in place robust data systems that inform their decision-making and interventions. The Institutional Champions of Access and Success Award winners are:
• Northern Virginia Community College (Annandale, Va.)
• Salish Kooteni College (Pablo, Mont.)
• St. Edwards University (Austin, Texas)
• The University of Texas at El Paso (El Paso, Texas)
The IHEP Champions of Access and Success Awards were presented during IHEP's National Policy Summit: Redefining Access for the 21st-Century Student held at the National Press Club. That signature IHEP event brought together critical stakeholders—policymakers, institutional decision-makers, business leaders, and other influential individuals whose reach extends across and beyond the postsecondary community—to foster policy and practice solutions in support of increased access and success.
SKC President Robert DePoe III accepted the award on behalf of Salish Kootenai College. Mr. DePoe thanked the college Board of Directors, faculty, and staff for their dedication to student success.
The IHEP Champions of Access and Success Awards were selected through an open application and nomination process; for the institutional awards, all institutions committed to improving access and success were invited to apply. Selections were vetted by IHEP staff, board members, and external postsecondary access and success experts.

Asya Bussie and Christal Caldwell combined for a 28 point second-half surge, but it wasn't enough as the West Virginia women's basketball team fell to No. 2 Connecticut 79-60 Wednesday at the XL Center.
The Mountaineers (10-4, 1-1) held the Huskies (12-1, 2-0) to only 37.1 percent (13-35) shooting in the first half, while shooting 44.4 percent (12-27) and went into halftime down 34-27.
Out of the half, a Caldwell free throw brought WVU within six points, the closest it would come since the 8:13 mark of the opening half when it was tied at 18-18 and the closest it would come for the remainder of the game.
"We had a great game plan--we just didn't execute. We weren't moving the ball," coach Mike Carey said. "Our spacing was horrendous against their pressure. We stress defense and I still thought some of our girls played extremely hard. Now if we can get the rest of them to play hard and be a little smarter. With Connecticut you can't give them layups and second shots. We got out of control sometimes. I have to do a better job of teaching our team against pressure and spacing."
Bussie led all players with 19 points, 17 in the second half, and pulled down six rebounds. Caldwell recorded 17 points, with 11 coming from the closing half. Brooke Hampton was the only other Mountaineer in double figures as she had 10 points on 4-of-7 shooting, including a pair of threes.
Ayana Dunning matched Caldwell in leading WVU in rebounding with seven boards each. The Mountaineers were successful in out-rebounding the Huskies 37-35.
Overall, WVU out-shot Connecticut from the field, draining 44.9 percent (22-49) to the Huskies' 43.8 percent (28-64). Connecticut took a slight advantage from beyond the arc, making 20 percent (4-20) to WVU's 15.8 percent (3-19). The Huskies had the true advantage from the charity stripe as they converted 67.9 percent (19-28), while the Mountaineers only achieved 13 points (13-22) from the free throw line.
Turnovers proved costly as WVU turned the ball over 29 times in comparison to Connecticut's 13 turnovers.
Connecticut had five players in double figures with Bria Hartley having 18 points. Kelly Faris chipped in 14 points and also led in steals with six and dished out five assists. Stefanie Dolson pulled down a team-best seven rebounds and had six assists.
"They are a great team," Carey said. "They are well coached. I told them, this is what the BIG EAST is about and we have to learn from this."
The Mountaineers return home for a 7 p.m. matchup on Saturday, Jan. 7 as they continue BIG EAST competition with Villanova.
