Obituary: Bishop Joseph Zong Huaide
Wednesday 02 July 1997
For many years Zong had headed the CPA, the Church which broke away from the jurisdiction of the Vatican in the 1950s under pressure from the Chinese Communist government. Although he had suffered at the hands of the regime during the Cultural Revolution, Zong believed that compromise with the government and a national Catholic Church free of Vatican control were goals worth pursuing. As well as heading the CPA itself, he was also chairman of the Bishops' Conference of the CPA.
Zong was born in eastern Shandong province in 1917 into a family that could trace its Catholic roots back 200 years. After school and junior seminary in Zhoucun he entered the major seminary in the provincial capital Jinan in 1938, being ordained priest in 1943. He was then sent to work in a local village parish.
He served as vicar of the Zhoucun diocese from 1949 to 1958. These were turbulent times for the Catholic Church in the wake of the Communist takeover. All foreign missionaries were arrested and then expelled. Bishops, priests and lay people who remained faithful to the Vatican were imprisoned as the state moved to assert control over the Catholic Church. Those prepared to break their ties with the Vatican were allowed to form the Catholic Patriotic Association, which was under tight government control.
Zong's acceptance of a national Catholic Church soon led to promotion. He was consecrated Bishop of Zhoucun in June 1958, one of the first of the new bishops ordained without Vatican approval. However, this did not spare him as times got tougher. In the wake of the unleashing of the Cultural Revolution by fanatical Maoist students in 1966, Zong was one of the many clergy of all religious groups to be arrested. All China's churches were closed and religious books and artefacts were destroyed amid the frenzy of destruction. Zong was to spend the next decade at a reform-through- labour farm, not re-emerging until the late 1970s.
Following his release he resumed his church work at a time when life was getting easier for the government-approved religious groups, including the Patriotic Catholics. At the Third National Congress of the CPA, in May 1980, Zong was elected chairman of the organisation, indicating the trust placed in him by the state authorities.
He later became head of the national Catholic seminary in Beijing and a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. From the late 1980s he was acting head of the Bishops' Conference, becoming its chairman in 1992. Zong's work - most of which was based in Peking - left him little time to care for his diocese of Jinan and Zhoucun.
Despite his high-profile position within the CPA, Zong was a timid and self-effacing figure. He was clearly not the person taking decisions in the organisation and his position as CPA leader meant that he was not often invited abroad by other Catholic organisations.
Last month, he welcomed to Peking a delegation of Hong Kong's leading Catholics, including Coadjutor Bishop Joseph Zen Ze-kiun and Auxiliary Bishop John Tong Hon. The talks were polite, but delicate, and concentrated mainly on pastoral questions. More important, talks were held with government officials. The Hong Kong Catholic Church is determined to retain its links to the Vatican and neither the Hong Kong Church nor the Chinese authorities have proposed incorporating it into the CPA.
Although he did not rule out re-integration of the Patriotic Church into the world-wide Catholic Church, Zong stressed that this was impossible unless the Vatican ruled out interference in China's domestic affairs and ended its diplomatic recognition of Taiwan, which China holds to be a rebel province. However, he did work to promote some of the reforms of the Second Vatican Council within the Patriotic Church.
Joseph Zong Huaide, priest: born Shandong province, China 1917; ordained priest 1943; Bishop of Zhoucun 1958-97; Chairman, Catholic Patriotic Association 1982- 97; died Peking 27 June 1997.

There are 33 major deserts in the world that, when subdivided into smaller deserts, similar to mountain ranges, equal 71. Of those 71, 12 are in Africa, one is Antarctica, three are in the arctic basin, 26 are in Asia (including the Middle East), 10 are in Australia and New Zealand, 10 are in Europe, four are in North America, and five are in South America.
Although the typical idea of a desert is a vast sandy place with little water, a desert is actually classified as any area of land that receives less than 10 inches of rain annually. This is why Antarctica is not only classified as a desert, but it is the world's largest desert. The Sahara in Africa is the world's largest hot desert.
Some of the major deserts of the world include: Arabian Atacama Death Valley Gibson Gobi Great Basin Great Sandy Great Victoria Kalahari Karakum Kavir Kyzylkum Libyan Lut Mojave Nafud

Farm bill creates new critical conservation areas
by MBJ Staff

AROUND MISSISSIPPI — Mississippi has two new conservation partnerships aimed at ensuring the long-term viability of the Mississippi River and the long leaf pine forests to the state.
Large portions of Mississippi are included in two of the eight Critical Conservation Areas (CCA) authorized under the 2014 farm bill as part of a significant reform of U.S. Department of Agriculture conservation areas. Mississippi is part of a 13-state Mississippi River Basin CCA and the Longleaf Pine Range CCA that extends from the Atlantic Coast to East Texas.
"The new Regional Conservation Partnership Program will create opportunities for Mississippi agriculture producers, conservationists and other partners to work on a cooperative basis to safeguard the natural resources that are important to our state's environment and an economy that benefits from strong agriculture and timber sectors, as well as hunting, fishing and recreation," said U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.).
The Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) was created through the consolidation of 23 conservation programs into 13 reformed programs, saving more than $6.0 billion over 10 years. The RCPP will make resources available through three competitive funding pools of which 35 percent of total program funding will be reserved for the eight CCAs to support collaborative conservation projects with federal, state and private partners. The U.S. Department of Agriculture will allot $400 million in the first year of this five-year program.
The overall goal of the Mississippi River Basin CCA is to reduce nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment loads entering the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico. The long-range goal of the Longleaf Pine CCA is improve longleaf pine ecosystems, enhance water quality and increase the longleaf pine acreage goal from 3.4 to eight million acres by 2025.
At a Senate Agriculture Committee hearing in March, Cochran promoted the inclusion of the Lower Mississippi River Valley in one of the eight CCAs.

Coach Chuck Pagano to Be Featured On CBS Sports' NFL TODAY, 12/30
THE NFL ON CBS, home of Super Bowl XLVII and broadcasting its 53rd year of the NFL, continues its 2012 NFL season on Sunday, Dec. 30 (1:00-7:00 PM, ET) beginning with THE NFL TODAY (12:00 Noon-1:00 PM, ET).
THE NFL ON CBS's Greg Gumbel previews the Houston Texans-Indianapolis Colts game with one of the most inspirational stories of the 2012 NFL season, an interview with Colts Head Coach CHUCK Pagano as he returns to the sidelines for the first time since Week 3 after fighting leukemia.
When Pagano took the head coaching job of the Colts in January of this year, little did he know what would lie ahead for him and his team. Indianapolis started 1-2 with the rookie head coach and a rookie quarterback. During the Colts' bye week in September, Pagano visited his doctor to check out some symptoms of fatigue and discoloration of his arms. The next thing Pagano knew, he was in the hospital receiving chemotherapy for leukemia.
Meanwhile, Offensive Coordinator Bruce Arians was appointed Interim Head Coach on October 1. Arians and his players promised Pagano that they would keep things going until his return. With Pagano's inspiration, Arians' coaching, Andrew Luck's growth at quarterback and the veteran leadership of All-Pro wide receiver Reggie Wayne, among others, the Colts won nine-of-their-next-12 games led by the chant, "1-2-3 CHUCK!" Now with Pagano returning this week, he takes back the reigns of a playoff team. Along the way, Pagano's heroic fight against cancer promoted countless "Chuckstrong" stories. Charlie Bloom is the producer.
JAmes Brown hosts THE NFL TODAY along with analysts Dan Marino, Boomer Esiason, Shannon Sharpe and Bill Cowher, NFL TODAY Insider Jason La Canfora, as well as Lesley Visser reporting.
Eric Mann is senior producer and Bob Matina is director of THE NFL TODAY.
Sean McManus is Chairman, CBS Sports and serves as the Executive Producer for THE NFL ON CBS. Harold Bryant is Executive Producer and Vice President, Production, CBS Sports.

David is the Director of Product Marketing for Flex System. What is one of the top challenges for IT departments? The need to deploy sophisticated and advanced technology that can help meet their needs faster and at lower cost. Many data centers are successfully addressing this challenge with converged infrastructure (CI), which include servers, networking, storage and management designed to work together as a single unit. The unique characteristics of CI enable IT departments to add applications and capabilities quickly, and thus provide their businesses with a competitive advantage. The basic premise behind CI is simple; as we integrate components, the cost and the complexity flows out. Customer-focused CI vendors will take a solutions approach to extend the basic premise by integrating software along with the hardware. Take virtual desktop computing (VDI) as an example. A traditional VDI solution can help consolidate call-center IT to reduce cost and improve security. A more advanced VDI solution can enable deployment of applications across an enterprise and support bring-your-own-device (BYOD) initiatives. So what is needed to deploy a VDI solution? It takes servers, networking, storage, virtualization technology, management of both physical and virtual desktop environment, cabling, PDUs and thermal consideration. In short, it requires a lot. A CI solution specifically for VDI can simplify this complexity. Design guides and reference architectures provide guidance and ensure interoperability. Lenovo provides this guidance here for the Flex System VDI solution by partnering with VMware. The newly announced FlexPac promotion on... ]]> http://blog.lenovo.com/products/the-x3750-m4-is-a-proven-winner-in-the-financial-industry-new-lenovo-case-s Randall Lundin 2014-11-20T19:44:41+00:00 Financial industry clients and industry benchmarks confirm that the System x3750 M4 is a proven winner for low latency transaction processing applications.

In this blog, I'd like to briefly explore these new technologies and their potential benefits for different workload types. Also, I will discuss some industry benchmark results to highlight the key benefits that the x3550 M5 and x3650 M5 systems offer based on actual performance measurements. Processor options The System x M5 servers now support the full range of Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 product family, including 18 or 16 cores (2.3 GHz core speeds); 14, 12, or 10 cores (up to 2.6 GHz core speeds); 8 cores (up to 3.2 GHz core speeds); 6 cores (up to 3.4 GHz core speeds); and 4 cores (up to 3.5 GHz core speeds). The following table recaps the differences between the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 product family and its predecessor, the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v2 product family.

In this blog, I'm going to talk about the business value of scale–up deployments. Companies consolidating workloads from scale-out x86 servers to scale-up servers can experience savings in a number of categories, including server and networking cost reduction, licensing fee reduction, and avoidance of costs associated with IT staffing as well as datacenter facilities and power and cooling. Without consolidation, these costs would have increased because larger numbers of physically separate servers would have been needed to support all of those workloads and to support all of the end users accessing the servers. Also, end-user productivity can be enhanced with less downtime or performance issues. Reduced Software licensing costs. A major factor to consolidating onto scale-up systems included the reduction in the number of instances of supporting software such as operating system licenses and third party licenses. Since many major software packages are licensed on a per-processor or per-core basis, reducing the number of systems can significantly lower annual software supports cost. Improved IT staff productivity. Using scale-up servers reduces the total number of processors and servers under management. With fewer physical servers to maintain, server administrators were freed up to focus on higher-value-added tasks and expand process automation applications without adding overhead. They also benefited from the automation and manageability features associated with scale-up server deployments, further easing the administrative burden and reducing server-related administrative... ]]> http://blog.lenovo.com/products/lenovo-cloudera-solution-brief-for-hadoop-deployments Edgar Haren 2014-11-14T15:15:54+00:00 Lenovo is proud to formally announce a partnership with Cloudera to bring forward a tool box of solutions for Hadoop deployments. Lenovo's newly acquired System x portfolio had an existing relationship with Cloudera, and has released a variety of reference architectures around Cloudera's Enterprise Data Hub & Hadoop Distribution. These solutions were aimed at large enterprise customers and consisted of multi-rack deployments. Lenovo also has the ThinkServer portfolio of systems that is more focused on the small- and medium-sized business market segment and key verticals such as Education, Distributed Data Centers and Retail. Below is Gartner's research depicting the investment trends for big data by vertical. For this reason, we believe that the ThinkServer portfolio is well positioned to support SMBs across a variety of industries. By 2020 we will have 30 billion devices and eight billion people connected to networks generating 40 trillion gigabytes of data. Data points like this may lead SMBs to shy away from big data or deep business analytics; however, other firms are finding the competitive value of harnessing key business metrics as critical to their success. According to the SMB Group, currently only about 18 percent of small and about 57 percent of medium-sized businesses utilize business intelligence and analytics solutions, but there's a trend towards more widespread adoption. Techaisle highlights that the SMB big-data-related deployments crossed the $1B mark in 2013 (32 percent increase) and will reach $3.5B in 2016. The challenge for SMBs will be in finding the necessary skilled talent to... ]]> http://blog.lenovo.com/products/join-the-lenovo-hpc-team-at-sc14-the-supercomputing-show-of-the-year Beth O'Shea 2014-11-13T13:52:22+00:00 The Supercomputing Conference 2014 (SC14) is taking place in New Orleans from November 16-20 and is focused on high-performance computing (HPC).

Here's how to do it. By default, a Windows 8/8.1 shutdown is not a real shutdown. Instead, it is hybrid shutdown where contents of memory are saved to disk. This allows for a faster startup. However, turning on the PC after a hybrid shutdown does not allow for pressing F1 or F12 during startup. There are several ways to enter Setup Utility (F1) or the Boot Menu (F12) on a Microsoft Windows 8/8.1 PC as explained below: Press and hold the Shift key while selecting the Shutdown option in Windows 8. This will make the PC perform a full shutdown instead of a hybrid shutdown. Then F1 or F12 can be pressed successfully during startup. Select Restart instead of Shutdown. Then F1 or F12 can be pressed successfully during startup. Disable the fast startup option in Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Power Options -> Choose what the power buttons do.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed w...

Explosive growth in connected devices. Enormous amounts of data for collection and analysis. Critical use of data for split-second decision making and actionable information.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things. The difference ...

My Toshiba Equium laptop has lost sound - no problem with the speakers which test OK. I downloaded JYK Recorder software to transfer cassette tapes to MP3 which seems to have caused the problem. How can I resolve it? Haven't been able to find answers online.

It's not as if Las Vegas doesn't have enough panhandlers, but The Times-Picayune, citing multiple sources, is reporting that Gov. Bobby Jindal waved a tin cup last month before billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, the fat cat who dropped more than $100 million on Republican campaigns in the last election cycle — he didn't get much return on his investment — and has vowed to double down his efforts in 2016.
Citing The Wall Street Journal, Politico and Salon, The T-P says Jindal, along with up to four other GOP governors, popped into the Venetian Resort Hotel Casino a week after the Nov. 6 election to meet with Adelson and be to be simultaneously awesome and sycophantic. The Republican state executives were in Sin City for a conference for the Republican Governors Association, of which Jindal is chairman.
Adelson, whose personal wealth is estimated at more than $21 billion, directly backed nine candidates this past election cycle. Eight of them including Mitt Romney lost. But money is money, and whoever secures the 2016 GOP nomination will need lots of it to compete.
Read the T-P story here.
NOV 26 Zach Kopplin, who we came to know and love when he was a Louisiana high school student lobbying for the continued inclusion of science stuff in science class, pens this post in The Atlantic about a "textbook" available for social studies instruction in Texas that discusses how Moses contributed to the Constitution. (Oy! Texas rednecks love Jews. Who knew?)
NOV 26 Finally, mad people on the interwebz is a good thing! World wide webby outrage has caused the village of Moreauville to reverse its plan to confiscate pit bulls and Rottweillers and euthanize them simply because of their breed, WAFB reports here. The plan? They're going to enforce the leash law. Well, that would have been a good place to start.
NOV 26 Jim Brown, like many of us Louisiana voters, seems fed up with out of town know-it-alls trying to tell us what to do. Bill Cassidy can't make it through the day without flying someone in to "tell us political retards" how to vote, he says.
NOV 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about the behavior of the two finalists in the 6th Congressional District race: Edwin Edwards and Garret Graves. Edwards has come out swinging, but Graves' campaign seems bent on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, Tom says.
NOV 26 Blogger CB Forgotston is confused, he says, because Governor Bobby Jindal said higher education wouldn't get cut, but it looks like it is being cut. CB's asking: When is a cut not a cut?
NOV 26 Unless you're in Virigina, you shouldn't count on seeing our Governor on Election Day. Mark Ballard writes in the Advocate's political blog that Bobby will be appearing at a GOP love fest of some kind there, instead of spending the day here.
NOV 26 This post on The Lens takes a look at the ongoing dispute in New Orleans over the banners about the upcoming tax election for the school system. The banners are hanging on schools, and some feel they are promotional, which is not allowed, instead of educational - which is allowed.
NOV 26 Not all college students are focused on football games and parties at this time of year. This post on DIG Baton Rouge recounts an LSU student group that tries to make sure that those who are hungry and homeless are not forgotten by those of us who aren't.
NOV 25 Edwin Edwards took off the gloves on Monday, this post on WAFB tells us. At a Press Club appearance, he wondered how his 6th Congressional District opponent, Garret Graves, could be an expert in all the areas in which he claims to be - when he has no college degree in anything. (Five years - FIVE YEARS - in college, but no degree. Huh?)
NOV 25 Blogger Mike Deshotels offers this primer on predatory charter schools and how they operate, specifically in Louisiana. They're not just profiting from our tax dollars, they're using children and shortchanging them to do so, Deshotels says.
NOV 25 Here's a link to the petition that has been created to save Zeus, a family dog who is targeted for death by the learned fathers of the Avoyelles Parish village of Moreauville. They passed an ordinance based on nothing that outlaws pit bulls and Rotweillers. As of Tuesday morning, the petition had more than 230,000 signatures - a number that's a wee bit higher than the village population of 929.

LG Electronics has developed the push-to-view mobile phone, which enables multi-user video conferencing, the company said. Push-to-view, or PTV, is a development of the concept of push-to-talk phones that use walkie-talkie technology.
While current video conferencing technology only enables one-to-one image transmission, PTV takes video telephones one step further, allowing a user to send real-time moving images to more than one person at the same time. Recipients of the video can also join the video conferences.
LG said that it is getting ready to commercialize PTV services for top global mobile carriers that offer wideband code division multiple access, or WCDMA, service.
Marketing of the third-generation video conferencing phones will begin as early as July 2005. (JoongAng Daily)

Preliminary work begins on Warren Co. racino
Updated On: Dec 31 2012 06:38:28 PM EST
A local racino isn't expected to open until early 2014, but crews are already out paving the way for Warren County's newest attraction.
Crews are doing preliminary site work for the racetrack and casino near Cincinnati Premium Outlets and Traders World.
"Since this area is growing with the mall, I think it will definitely bring more people to the area," said shopper Anthony Hixon.
The project will create 1,000 construction jobs and 700 permanent positions.
Miami Valley Gaming and Racing said the project will pump $24 million each year into the local economy.
The Turtlecreek Township racino will offer harness racing and simulcast operations.
It will also feature 2,500 video lottery terminals, restaurants and shops.

Flushing, NY (Sports Network) - David Wright crushed a go-ahead, RBI double in the bottom of the eighth, lifting the Mets to a 9-4 victory over the Reds to salvage a split of a two-game series at Citi Field on Thursday.
Lucas Duda and Justin Turner each knocked in two runs, Wright scored three times and Ronny Cedeno added a three-run blast in a five-run eighth inning as the Mets snapped a brief two-game skid.
"These guys are a resilient bunch," remarked Mets manager Terry Collins. "They don't get down when they lose tough games. They just know they have to come out and play. They're a joy to be around."
Bobby Parnell (1-0) got the victory after tossing a scoreless top of the eighth, while starter R.A. Dickey was charged for four runs -- three earned -- on five hits with eight strikeouts over six frames.
Logan Ondrusek (3-1) suffered the loss after giving up five runs on four hits and a walk in the eighth inning. Starter Mat Latos struck out seven and allowed three runs on seven hits over his five-plus innings of work.
"It's something that's going to happen," Ondrusek said. "I have to bear down next time and do a better job and not give up five."
Joey Votto added a solo blast in defeat as the Reds lost their second game in three tries.
The Mets trailed 4-0 heading into the bottom of the fifth, but scored nine unanswered runs to complete the comeback victory.
Andres Torres slapped a one-out single in the fifth and Wright worked a walk two batters later. Duda then lined a double into right, scoring both runners to bring the Mets within 4-2.
Ike Davis drew a leadoff walk in the sixth before a single from Cedeno marked the end of Latos' afternoon. J.J. Hoover entered and Mike Nickeas got down a bunt that Todd Frazier misplayed at third to load the bases before pinch-hitter Mike Baxter's sacrifice fly to left pulled the Mets within one.
Aroldis Chapman walked Wright to start the bottom of the seventh and Duda followed with a flare into shallow center.
Daniel Murphy then lifted a fly ball into center field where Drew Stubbs made a diving effort, but saw the ball tip off his glove to load the bases before a sac fly from a pinch-hitting Turner tied the game at 4-4.
Ondrusek entered for the Reds in the eighth, but Rob Johnson reached on a bunt single with one out before scoring from first on Wright's double into center field to give the Mets a 5-4 lead.
After Duda flied out and Murphy was intentionally walked, Turner lifted a fly ball into shallow left field that no one was able to get under, allowing Wright to score before Cedeno's first homer of the year pushed the margin to 9-4.
Earlier in the game, Votto's sixth homer of the season gave the Reds a 1-0 lead in the fourth before they added three more in the fifth.
After not walking a batter over the first four frames, Dickey plunked Ryan Ludwick to start the fifth and walked Frazier before Ryan Hanigan plated Ludwick with a double into center field.
Latos then pushed a run across with a sac fly and Hanigan scored on a passed ball to give the Reds a 4-0 lead.
Votto extended his streak of reaching base safely to 28 games with his home run in the fourth...Chapman had gone 19 1/3 consecutive innings without allowing a run this season...Ondrusek also had his streak of 15 1/3 consecutive scoreless innings snapped.
Former Texas A&M and NFL linebacker Larry Kelm died in a hunting accident, the university announced Monday.

The $24,000 campaign is part of $19 billion that Texas is estimated to spend annually on incentives to keep local businesses happy and to attract businesses from other states.
A couple of California businesses have moved operations to Texas recently including Xeris Pharmaceuticals and LegalZoom, the Chronicle notes.
And several Bay Area companies including Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) and Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) have expanded in the state.

"President Obama's plan to speak to America's schoolchildren next Tuesday has some Republicans in an uproar," said The Wall Street Journal in an editorial. Their criticism, that Obama plans to indoctrinate our children in socialist ideology, is "overwrought, to say the least." Obama's message of working hard and taking responsibility for their own learning is "hardly the stuff of the Communist Manifesto," so why the calls for an "NC-17 rating"?
First, it's not Obama's job to "go over the heads of parents," said The Washington Examiner in an editorial, and give "mass life-counseling to school kids." Then there's the worrisome 'Dear Leader' aspect" of the speech: Having "the nation's leader exhorting students 'to get focused and inspired for the new school year' would not be surprising in Havana, Caracas, or Pyongyang," but it "properly sets off all kinds of alarm bells" here.
The alarm bells should be ringing all right, but rather for the Republican Party, said Rod Dreher in BeliefNet. At least one "Texas Republican friend" has told me that this "crazybomb on the Right"—Obama's speech is akin to Hitler and Charles Manson, for example—is the "last straw," and he no longer wants "to be associated in any way with the GOP."
Look, "lefty darling Dick Gephardt" criticized a similar school speech by President George H.W. Bush in 1991, said Allahpundit in Hot Air. But the amazing thing is that the White House didn't anticipate this reaction, given the "righty suspicions about creeping authoritarianism." Seriously, "do they not watch Glenn Beck or listen to Limbaugh" in the West Wing?
Obama should have seen this "hysteria" coming? said The Dallas Morning News in an editorial. "Who in their right mind could have anticipated that a president encouraging American kids to be exemplary students would set off a roaring partisan prairie fire?" Conservatives used to respect the U.S. presidency, and "roll their collective eyes when liberals would go berserk over the most ordinary things Bush said. Why the hypocrisy now?"
