If that happens, Obama's Cairo speech will assume its proper place with other dramatic Obama addresses – rhetorical flourishes, symbols without substance – until this moment passes and strong leadership arises that can address problems in the real world rather than the world of our illusions. In the meantime, we will have to show fortitude, tenacity and real courage.

As Arabs murder and maim Jews, Jordan's leaders bark the blood libel of "Israeli aggression."
Perhaps attacking a terrorist's legacy broadly and publicly would dissuade others from terrorism?
R' Aryeh yelled "Run, I'll fight!" Using a chair against terrorists to buy time so others could flee
Riot started when Muslim students wore the Pal. kaffiyeh and Druze students demanded them removed
The "Media" didn't want us to know what a kind, giving, loving young woman Dalia was.
A "Palestine" could become another Lebanon, with many different factions battling for control.
Maimonides himself walked and prayed in the permissible areas when he visited Eretz Yisrael in 1165
Having a strong community presence at the polls shows our elected officials we care about the issues
Israel's Temple Mount policy prefers to blames the Jews-not the attackers-for the crisis.
When Islam conquered the Holy Land, it made its capital in Ramle of all places, not in Jerusalem.
I joined the large crowd but this time it was more personal; my cousin Aryeh was one of the victims.
Terrorists aren't driven by social, economic, or other grievances, rather by a fanatical worldview.
The phrase that the "Arabs are resorting to violence" is disgraceful and blames the victim.
Tuesday, Yom Shlishi, a doubly good day in the Torah, Esav's hands tried to silence Yaakov's voice.
Because of the disparate nature of the perpetrators, who are also relatively young, and given the lack of more traditional targets and the reverence Palestinians have for their homes, one now hears talk of Israel returning to a policy of destroying the houses of terrorists' families.
There is a certain unwordliness to the pope's call for a two-state solution, an obliviousness to the reality on the ground.
One can't only take; one must give as well. Giving – not taking – is the essence of the righteous person.
Much of what we know about 19th century Orthodoxy is false, including the provenance of the term Orthodox.
A president who today used the language of FDR or JFK would be derided. If he were a candidate, the media elites would bury his chances of winning the election. He would be a laughing stock to the aimless young people whose uninformed opinions on public affairs seem to matter more than they should.
With the constant drumbeat of articles about "Orthodox" female rabbis appearing in the media almost weekly – essentially the same articles making the same points to the same eager audience, all to make the phenomenon of such "rabbis" seem commonplace – it is important to take a step back and examine how we arrived at this destination.
The Wall Street Journal last month featured a front-page article titled "After These Jewish Prayer Services, Things Come 'To Life' at Open Bar," with the sub-heading, "To Woo Worshippers, Synagogues Compete with Food and Booze."
In the wake of the presidential election, American Jews must once again ask a fundamental question that seems to defy both societal trends and a clear resolution: why do Jews overwhelmingly support the Democratic candidate, year after year, election after election?
The notion of the "Reagan Democrat" is one cliché that should be permanently retired.

NPR: '80s Ads Are Responsible For the Lack of Women Coders

Re:What? (786 comments)
I guess we have to take your word on this regarding the reasons, instead of using Occam's Razor and just accept the most likely answer.
Re:We understand (225 comments)
It probably is a nightmare for them. But really the problem is our own society.
It is a problem of society, but not in the way you describe it. It's a problem that people don't act like grown-ups and take responsibility for their decisions.
If I use a service by a company and trust them to upload my private photos to the internet and secure them, and said company is failing to do that and is breaking my trust, I should stop dealing with that company, or take the fight to them. It was my decision to trust that company, now I have to deal with it.
Further, if I decide to upload my private pictures to the internet I should know that something like that can always happen. If something is private I should just save the pictures at home or put them in a physical photo album. It was my decision to use cloud services, now I have to deal with it.
Re:Stop complaining and debating and do something (1134 comments)
When a girl gets put into a easier math class because she is a girl, that's a problem.
I have never met any girl which was sent to an easier class. Quite the opposite, most girls (and so did most boys, actually) during my school day tended to say "math is hard" and chose to avoid the higher level classes. It's not the society's job to question that decision by a person, nor is there anything wrong with it. People decided they didn't want to do math at a higher level, so it's fine. It's time to treat grown-up people as grown-ups and accept and tolerate their decisions without using them to further some social engineering goals.
When a women can't get a promotion in the gaming industry because 'women don't game' that's a problem.
There are women in prestigious designer jobs, and they got there by hard work, effort and dedication, not because of their boobs. And you know what? I don't care about the gender of the person who created the game(s) I play, and I guess most gamers don't even know the gender of the members of the development team. So why exactly do you want and need more women in gaming development? What is the ulterior motive? Why do you care so much about the gender of game designers? Why don't you just let people who want to become game designers become it and let the others live as they want? Stop making this a gender thing and let people choose jobs because they're skilled and dedicated, not because they have a certain flavour of genitals. It's really that simple.
When a women is trying to point this out and then has her personal life dragged into the public and is threatened with rape and death, that's a fucking problem.
I agree. Those are criminal offenses, and should be treated as such. People who are on the internet and publish things can get attacked for it, and we have laws to deal with it. I fail to see how there is a bigger problem with the "gamer society" in general. Some absent-minded idiots did an idiotic thing. That's it. It's still valid to criticize the feminist faction and not accept that every critic is a supposed misogynist, or object that the videos by Sarkeesian are ridiculously skwed and one-sided. It's an opinion, and I'm not a "women-hater" because I don't agree with what she shows in her videos.
And guess what? IN those situations society needs to make an effort to level the playing field.
It gets down to the very simple fact that feminists and all the other social engineering types are NOT working to even out the playing field or the rules of the game, but to manipulate the result.
Stop paying for DRM and lawyers (363 comments)
I wonder if the costs for implementing DRM, polishing the bad publicity and paying all those lawyers is really in the same order of magnitude as the "damages" by some people enjoying BBC content. And the only damage I see is that those alleged "pirates" are using BBCs bandwidth to stream the content. They wouldn't (because they couldn't) be customers of the BBC anyway.
Re:So, where is ... (1134 comments)
So you argue that some men in shining white armor should come to the aid of the damsels in distress? Isn't it ironic how the harassed women are now used as a damsel-in-distress plot device in some gamer misogyny story?
Re:Stop complaining and debating and do something (1134 comments)
So we should assume that women cannot achieve something on their own? Sometimes I'm confused who the real misogynists are in this discussion.
Stop complaining and debating and do something (1134 comments)
It's easy to complain, but difficult to do something yourself. Wouldn't it be nice instead of signing "open letters" or some other meaningless paperwork that developers and their supporters actually create the games they dream about? If there is the supposed conscience of the inclusion issues, I'm sure there is a market for their games, too. What's stopping them from developing them? And please act like a democratic and tolerant citizen and not tell the other part of the gaming community which games they are allowed to like or don't like, or developers which games they are allowed to develop.
The problem are the programming languages (329 comments)
What's obviously needed to even out the field is a feminist programming language. Luckily there are people doing research in that field. And our friends at 4chan have even created the first implementation.
Re:I have an idea (198 comments)
I don't think they want to abandon Android. It's great for hardware companies, in that you need a quadcore CPU and 2GB of RAM to render a telephone directory or do basic multitasking.
Re:Ah the Germans, they're really bad at this! (176 comments)
I don't know where you got your numbers, but here's what is on Wikipedia for CO2 And GWh generated. Let's at least compare the same year for each country.
It's certainly better than the US, but considering this big push the Germany is in for clean energy and the US is only half-ass moving in that direction, I'm a little surprised it is as close as it is.
This is because Germany now uses coal power plants instead of nuclear plants to produce the necessary electricity.
France is on the better side of this by far at: CO2-370,000 / 560,500 GWh=0.66 tons of CO2 per GWh
How surprising, nuclear energy is green energy.
Re:Just one question (333 comments)
Useful error messages are a technical merit. It makes development much easier. So they traded run-time vs. development time here.
Re:PR gimmic, if your cynical (266 comments)
If they bring [...] jobs back
I knew that Apple was an evil company, but I didn't know they dabbled in necromancy.
You can't share files "on BitTorrent" (339 comments)
Nobody would say "he shared data on http", so please stop confusing the BT protocol with BT trackers.
Where's Europe's largest country? (132 comments)
Where's Germany? Did they not collect any data for it?
Hats and Trousers? (148 comments)
"Valve has big plans for Dota 2, no less big than what happened with Team Fortress 2, even if it took them a few years to get to where Team Fortress 2 is today."
They will never match the amount of hats TF2 has, their only chance is to add farm-able trousers.
Not a missing metric, it's bad engineering (251 comments)
The problem is not that we are missing some metric to calculate the loudness, that is pretty easy to define, and has been used to develop counteracting measures in ReplayGain and EBU R128 compliant loudness scanners.
The problem is that the production of music is so atrocious, most of popular and metal music is compressed into such a tiny dynamic range. Some is even clipped to digital fullscale, leading to horrible artifacts when listening. This is nothing which can be fixed by a law, it is simply (deliberate?!) bad engineering. As long as this keeps up the loudness war will not end.
From the last few pop(?) albums I listened to (Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Mars Volta), it seems that we, the listeners, are still losing big time.
Re:Why pirate network TV? (312 comments)
I will explain the situation for Germany:
First of all, real popular shows you read about on the net normally haven't arrived on German networks, yet. Most of the time they arrive with at least one season lag, if at all. And even if you can watch the show by then, it is normally on networks which will drown you in ads every few minutes.
And don't get me started that not even today, with the full digitization of TV, you have the option to watch foreign shows undubbed in Germany. If you ever had to suffer through the German dubs of TV shows, you would no doubt also strongly consider piracy.
Of course you can wait for the DVD/BD box to arrive, containing an English audio track, but those may again arrive late or not at all. Coincidentally, GoT has been an exception here. Also, the pricing is oftentimes on the ludicrous side, and thanks to DVD and BD DRM you cannot even just get the US release.
Re:Social Justice (188 comments)
This adds to my impression that many, many voters just voted for them because they are fed up with the old parties and system. It may very well be that these voters will leave for greener pastures in the future, causing the PP to fall below 5% again (meaning they won't get seats in state elections). Also, a good percentage of the voters are previous FDP (liberals) voters. The FDP had two positions in the past, neo-liberalism with open markets and freedom for the financial sector, and civil rights. They nearly completely expunged the latter from their party over the years (apart from the national minister Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger), and now they are paying for it: They are part of the national government, but didn't even get 2% of the votes in the Saarland. Most analysts assume that the voters left for the other bigger parties and the PP.
Two likely causes (311 comments)
Dwindling sales of the RIAA labels could have two probable causes:
1. With Spotify and similar streaming services, most people can get all the music they need for 5$ a month. The offers there probably satisfy most users.
2. The CDs that get released by major labels are produced so poorly that I entirely stopped buying any major label releases (also because my taste evolved). It's completely retarded marketing on the majors end. The people buying CDs today are actually not the young people, but rather in their late twenties and thirties. Those actually know how properly mastered music sounds, and current CD releases are far from that. It's totally schizophrenic to still put out CDs, but to treat your own product in such a poor fashion that it's simply worthless.
Ian's remark about 128kbit/s MP3s (382 comments)
Ian Shepherd's mentioning that one should avoid 128kbit/s encoded MP3. This is leaving out a critical piece of information. Luckily he mentioned himself that heavily (audio) compressed music (data) compresses very badly. This will be especially evident if you force the encoder to only allocate a fixed number of bits to a section, called "Constant Bitrate" (CBR) in MP3 encoders. "Busy" sections will get the same data allotment as quiet sections. This problem can be diminished by using "Variable Bitrate" (VBR) mode when encoding, which encodes to a specific target quality rather than file size. With that, (LAME) MP3s can still sound good enough around 128kbit/s, since the encoder is free to allocate more bits to critical sections and less bits to non-critical section.
In short, there is no reason to use CBR encoding, unless your target device is unable to decode VBR encoded files, or you absolutely need to know the exact bandwidth requirement of a stream. It defeats the whole point of lossy encoding, which is to reproduce the original with highest possible fidelity, not reach a target file size.

NBC's Brian Williams: Indie Rock Vlogger!
By Tom Breihan on May 11, 2009 at 1:05 p.m. EDT
"NBC Nightly News" anchor Brian Williams isn't all lacquered hair and permanently arched eyebrows, it turns out. There's a serious indie crate-digger lurking somewhere within this guy. Today, NBC launched a new web series called (seriously) "BriTunes", wherein Williams interviews up-and-coming bands. (This is not to be confused with "FeinTunes", Senator Russ Feingold's music pick series.) The inaugural episode, up now, features the man talking shop with gnarled young Brooklyn alt-folkers Deer Tick.
It is so worth sitting through the obligatory Applebee's ad to watch this thing.
News in Brief: Les Savy Fav, Deer Tick, Nels Cline, These Arms Are Snakes
By Ryan Dombal on January 7, 2009 at 11:40 a.m. EST
-- Les Savy Fav-- led by the star of Pitchfork.tv's Beardo, Tim Harrington-- will take their punk rock freak show to Atlanta on January 23 at the Earl before heading over to nearby Roswell to play at a Whirlyball. That's right: a Whirlyball. Whirlyball, of course, is the bumper car game that's more fun than tetherball and basketball combined. As a special treat, the folks over at Chunklet are putting out a special edition of 2007's Let's Stay Friends that will only be available at the Whirlyball gig. Ladies and gentlemen, we already have a potential contender for Most Out-and-Out Fun Show of 2009.
-- Brooklyn folkies Deer Tick are getting ready to head out on a U.S. trek starting February 13. (Most dates will also feature former Drive-By Truckers member Jason Isbell and his band.) But, in the meantime, the Tick (!) aren't just playing Wii bowling or whatever. They're working hard on the follow-up to 2007's War Elephant, Born on Flag Day.
-- You probably know Nels Cline-- avant-guitar extraordinaire and tallest man in Wilco. But did you know he had an identical twin brother, Alex Cline? And that Alex plays all sorts of percussion and composes music, too? You do now! The twins will release simultaneous solo albums February 10 on L.A. jazzbo imprint Cryptogramophone. Nels' Coward is another guitar freakout featuring a six-part song called "Onan Suite" that will definitely cause record-store employees to run into the street naked. Alex's Continuation finds a slew of players including violinist Jeff Gauthier and pianist Myra Melford interpreting his work as they see fit. Brotherly synergy rarely sounds this odd, we assure you.
-- Scuzzy Seattle dudes These Arms Are Snakes are taking their most recent album, Tail Swallower and Dove, on the road starting February 22. Up-and-coming Touch & Go rockers All the Saints will open.

Editor's note:
A testimony to the failure of the environmental movement to offer an alternative to ecocide is the continued, widespread support of the automobile industry for "clean cars." This pseudo-environmental stance is almost identical to the Obama administration's myopia about continuing industrial pollution at full tilt for the sake of "jobs" and stability for its friends on Wall Street. However, the state of affairs -- driving off the ecological cliff for maximum petrocollapse -- is also the failure of grassroots activism and the pro-bicycle/pro walking movements.
For many thousands of years, any tribe knew not to overfish the local brook. For if the people did so, fish would not be forthcoming from distant places. There was always some trade, but not of staples (nor paperclips!).

I suspect my earlier explanation was ambiguous. The whole autotools suite is a shell script based build system. Shell scripts traditionally run on nix platforms do not run natively on Windows due to lack of UNIX/POSIX support, think of them as MS-DOS batch files on steroids. The "configure" script will run and test for the host and compiler capabilities, in this case MinGW and win32 gcc. It would then disable parts of the program source that requires function not found in the host system. For MinGW, it means parts of the program that uses fork(), ioctl(), pipe() will be disabled since it fails the "configure" test. The whole point of MSYS (for regular users, as opposed to MSYS developers) is to support MinGW. MSYS doesn't do much on its own, it will provide the environment to run nix support tools (bash, sed, grep, gawk, etc) on. MinGW provides the gcc compiler and w32api which to compile and link your code against.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Jets get out of town fast
No time to relax, facing red-hot Colorado tonight in Denver
DALLAS -- If hockey fans have learned anything about the Winnipeg Jets over these two-plus years, it might be this: Their frustrating inconsistency often means they handle boons and blessings as well as they handle adversity -- not very well.
And so maybe it's a good thing the Jets, who served up a solid effort in a 2-1 shootout victory over the Dallas Stars Saturday night, were airborne immediately after the game for Denver and a meeting with the Colorado Avalanche, 9-1 to start the season, this evening.
"That was one of our better games, especially the first 40 minutes when we played pretty good," said veteran Olli Jokinen. "That was a big win for the team. We can move on, try and put this game behind us and focus on the next one.
"We're a .500 hockey team so there's no reason to plan the parade."
Yup, that just about sums up this team perfectly. Now 5-5-2, they last posted back-to-back wins at the start of the season when they opened with victories over Edmonton and Los Angeles. Since then it's kind of been all over the map in a 3-5-2 run.
"We've just got to go game-by-game, we can't really worry about who we're playing against," Jokinen said. "We've got to play our way. We can't get satisfied having the one win here. That's our second win in four-five games, whatever it is. To me, we're a .500 hockey club. This gives us confidence. We want to take those steps forward. We don't want to be in the position where we have one good game and then take a few steps back. That's been the case for us in the first 12 games.
"We've got to have the right mindset and play the way we did tonight, build off this game and try to be better, try to improve."
All that said...
"If we had said at the start of the trip we'd have three out of the first four points, we definitely would have taken that," said Andrew Ladd. "It's nice having a win heading into (Denver) against a really tough team. We're going to have to be playing with the confidence and the jam we had tonight.
"Confidence-wise, this is a big thing."
PP SPECIAL: The Jets' power play was 0-for-4, extending their drought to seven games and 23 man-advantage chances -- although Evander Kane's goal did come on a delayed penalty. But the Jets penalty kill was excellent in killing off four chances.
And raise your hand if you've heard this before, albeit from Stars head coach Lindy Ruff:
"We are going to have to figure something out because we are not getting the job done, especially when we need to. We got to figure it out. Because like I said, it can make a difference in a game when you get a 4-3 in overtime or a 5-4 late in the third, whatever it is, that's pretty big.
"It's going up against their four hardest-working players pretty much and we have to outwork them and figure out a way to get it going."

The only reason for me to buy it over 120 (HP5 is readily available in 120!) would be price, and that's the wrong way around. As far as I'm concerned, if I'm buying the equivalent of 55+ rolls of film (150') then I expect a discount not a premium! That is in no way saying that Ilford's price is "wrong", it is what it is and no doubt due to their small-run cutting and hand-packaging process for this run. It just means there won't be much of a market at that price.
I agree, I think the idea is that, now that the ULF run happened, the tools and special machinery to make the perforations and cut the film will now be made, so in the future, the cost will go down (in theory) I mean the price for the 46mm (127 film size) equated to $5/roll which is 1/2 of efke's price and a better film... so I guess part of this was about "taking one for the team" so to speak. I do hope by next year it's significantly cheaper.

Carmen's bio
Carmen Fowler LaBerge heads the ministry of the Presbyterian Lay Committee as its President and Executive Editor. She also chairs the ecumenical leadership network, Common Ground Christian Network, co-convenes the LOVE2020 Apologetics group for Mission America Coalition and has been nominated to serve on the Board of Directors of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE). Her blogs, articles, equipping bible studies and commentaries are accessible at www.layman.org.
Ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA) in 1993 and having served churches in Texas, Georgia, Florida and South Carolina, Fowler LaBerge set aside her ordination in 2011 after the denomination began openly ordaining those who do not limit their sexual expression to fidelity in the context of marriage between a man and a woman or chastity in singleness. Asked about her rationale, she commented, "I could not in good conscience continue as an officer in a denomination that openly ordained those whose behavior so clearly fails to conform to God's revealed Word in the Scriptures. Ordination in the PCUSA is an act of the whole church. Knowing that if I were present, I could not participate in the laying on of hands of such an ordinand, I concluded that asking to be removed from the ordered ministry was the right step to take."
Fowler LaBerge has since taken considerable criticism from those further to the right on the theological spectrum for whom women's ordination causes similar concerns. LaBerge responds, "I fully respect both complimentarian and egalitarian interpretations. The confusion in our culture related to the male headship, mutual submission to Christ, the roles of men and women in a Christian household and in the church runs deep. Christians need to be leading the conversation and the reality is, many of the things that need most to be said can now only be said by a woman. Radical feminism has created a kind of toxicity toward male voices that robs them of a hearing. I do not face that particular challenge."
A widely known leader among Presbyterian Church (USA) renewal organizations, Fowler LaBerge served as executive director of the Presbyterian Coalition in 2002 and 2003 and co-moderator of the New Wineskins Association of Churches in 2008-2009. She has taught seminars and delivered keynote speeches in dozens of states, Israel and Malawi. Her pastoral experience spans the spectrum from the 5,600-member First Presbyterian Church in Orlando, Fla., to the 100- member Rabun Gap Presbyterian Church in the mountains of northeast Georgia. Fowler Laberge earned a degree in business administration from the University of Florida ('90) and a master of divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary ('93). At Princeton she served the seminary and her fellow students as the moderator of the student government.
When asked to assess the current realities facing Christians today, Fowler Laberge sees the conversation shifting from marriage to religious liberty. Read her interview here with the Washington Examiner.
Her ecumenical work among mainline evangelicals has also exposed Fowler LaBerge to the realignment of the Church both in America and around the world. She says, "That realignment is in evidence not only among Presbyterians, but among Episcopalian/Anglicans, Lutherans, other Reformed Christians and Methodists. God is drawing together those who are not ashamed of the Gospel, those who submit their lives to the authority of the Scriptures, those who understand the calling of the church to be the Great Commission and are willing to live it out at risk of their own lives. We are privileged not only to 'see' what God is doing in our generation, but also to participate in it. Equipping the saints for the work of God's mission is a worthy calling. Partnering with others around the world who share our passion is a great joy." That passion motivates Fowler LaBerge to serve in ecumencial leadership groups like the Common Ground Christian Network, National Association of Evangelicals and the Mission America Coalition.
Fowler LaBerge resides in Kingston Springs, Tenn. with her husband, Jim. They wed in May 2011. Fowler LaBerge can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

text: GOP Needs to Change the Debate to Reach Hispanic Voters by John Sexton Mar 19, 2013 10:39 AM PT Share This: Print He who frames the debate, wins the debate. It's time to re-frame the debate on the GOP relationship with Hispanic voters. Chris Cillizza had an interesting piece in yesterday's Washington Post. Titled "The Republican problem with Hispanic voters — in 7 charts" it relies on recent polling to present the GOP's demographic problem in an easily digestible form. Charts 1-5 establish that the number of Hispanic voters is growing and that they are overwhelmingly identifying with Democrats. I want to pick it up at chart 6 which conveys the source of the problem--the empathy gap: As I argued in much more detail a few days after the election, the reason the GOP lost has more to do with perceived compassion than it does with specific policies. The chart above supports that idea. Hispanics side with Democrats because they believe Democrats care. More than any policy or technological advantage, this is how Obama won. This dynamic puts the GOP in a bit of a pickle. How does one express compassion without equating it with opening the government coffers or, in the case of immigration reform, handing Democrats millions of new voters? Alternatively, how can one oppose immigration reform and still convey the message: The GOP cares. And like it or not, this is the message the GOP needs to convey to win Hispanic votes in future elections. However chart 7 in Cillizza's rundown points out that immigration is not the only issue Hispanic voters care about. In fact, it's not even in the top 3: The top issue according to Pew is education. Hispanic parents, like all parents, want a bright future for their children. And as it happens this is an area where the GOP supports change and Democrats--who are wed to teacher's unions--support the status quo. Assuming these charts are accurate, it seems that a national campaign focused on the benefits of school choice and school reform could be an issue where the GOP could go on offense and the President would be stuck playing defense. This possible opening on education reform was pointed out during the election last year but obviously Gov. Romney wasn't able to capitalize on it. Why not make it an issue now? It's an issue with appeal to most minority groups who bear the brunt of the nation's failing schools and, apart from it's political benefits, it's something that resonates with the GOP's core messages about competition and freedom. Plus, taking on the teacher's unions is something the GOP needs to do to balance state budgets anyway. There's a lot of potential upside here but we won't see any of it so long as we allow the President and the media to keep everyone focused on immigration reform. We need to re-frame the debate in order to win the debate. GOP Needs to Walk the Walk by Elizabeth Sheld Mar 19, 2013 11:14 AM PT Share This: Print In response to GOP Needs to Change the Debate to Reach Hispanic Voters: The GOP has successfully been branded as the party of rich, privileged people. The left has convinced various minority communities and factions that we are going to take their food stamps, education, healthcare, etc. away or we are going to take them away from people they know or take them away from those who are down on their luck. What is our response? We counter with lofty concepts like "liberty" and "self sufficiency" and "free market." This doesn't really help people who are worried their heat is going to get turned off or wondering if they can feed their kids tomorrow or someone with a sick baby. I'm sorry, but it doesn't. Where does that leave us? How about going into these communities (community organizer?) and creating some freemarket based solutions for people who need them? Doing so would create solutions, offer assistance to those who need it that are based in the private sector and also teach people that we do not need to depend on government. As long as we continue to shout bumper sticker slogans at people in need, we look like assholes. Yes, assholes. advertisement Breitbart Video Picks advertisement advertisement Most Popular Fox News National Classroom sex abuse case to cost more than $100 million22 Nov 2014, 12:37 AM PDT Authorities: Man arrested in 2007 killing of Colorado mom who worked as escort was a client21 Nov 2014 Polish town opposes Winnie-the-Pooh for dubious gender, immodest clothing21 Nov 2014 Official: Ferguson grand jury still reviewing evidence21 Nov 2014 Rural museum's WWII exhibit saved from scope of new gun laws 21 Nov 2014 advertisement Send A Tip Sign up for our newsletter

I currently have three children ages 5.5, 3.5 and almost 1. I just found out I am pregnant again. My question is that my almost 1 year old was still breastfeeding 3-4 times a day up until 2 days ago but yesterday he only nursed once and today not at all so far. If I try to latch him he just pauses and then bites down hard. I don't know what to do. Is this the end for us of nursing? Is it teething? Is it changes in the taste of my milk (I'm only 4.5 weeks along so I can't imagine it has changed so soon)? I tried to pump a bottle and give it to him last night and he drank a few ounces and then stopped. I'm at a loss and very frusturated. Any advice or thoughts?
Thank you!

BizCloud enters Asia
Business technology provider CSC has now extended its BizCloud to Asia. As of Friday, (March 16, 2012), the on-premise private cloud to be charged as a service offering, purportedly the first of its kind in the world, CSC customers have access to "the agility and convenience" offered by a public cloud and "the privacy, security and control" typically expected of a private cloud.
Company executives have said that BizCloud "gives users all the components needed for a private cloud, preconfigured, integrated and tested, on their own premises behind their firewall" but need only treat it as a subscription, "pay only for what they use and choose from different [grades of] service-level agreement, provisioning and support," and can simply ask CSC to scale up or down workloads according to their needs at any point in time.
Chief Technology & Innovation Officer of CSC in Asia, Bob Hayward expressed his belief that this latest announcement will encourage more enterprises in the region to move onto the cloud. "Asian organisations have been uncertain about the move from traditional IT to the Cloud. As an Asian first, customers can now take a safe first step to a preconfigured, integrated and tested private cloud on their own premises in just ten weeks," he said, spelling out the attraction.

The case of the phantom millionaire
Dominic Prince finds that the fashionable Tory Ivan Massow isn't quite as rich as people think
Dominic Prince finds that the fashionable Tory Ivan Massow isn't quite as rich as people think
by Dominic Prince Published
Ivan Massow is a homosexual, fox- hunting Tory, a friend of Michael Portillo and Peter Mandelson and a policy adviser to Steve Norris's campaign to be mayor of London, following a decision not to stand on his own account. He is also chairman of the Institute of Contemporary Arts. Charming, good-looking, well-dressed, cultured, broad-minded and a self-made millionaire to boot, he is very much the flavour of our age.
Being homosexual is at odds with the Tory party (see Quentin Letts on the next page). But making money is not. Happily for Massow, the press clippings state that he "made his first million by the time he was 23" and that now, at 32, the shares he owns in his business are "worth about £15 million".
Moreover, Massow made his money in a most admirable fashion, selling pensions and life insurance policies to homosexuals, who had been shunned by the financial services industry in the wake of the HIV epidemic.
Massow is a very good salesman. He cultivated writers on the newspaper personal finance pages when he started out, offering pictures taken during his modelling days as illustration. There is no doubt that he sells financial products. But is he really a multimillionaire?
Massow is a shareholder and director of two companies: On-line Independent Financial Adviser (originally called Ivan Massow Ltd) and Massow Financial Services. The first, according to records at Companies House, recorded a pre-tax profit of £703 in 1997 and a pre-tax profit of £3,864 the previous year. Hardly sums to catapult a man into the millionaire league.
Massow owned all the shares in this company until it was dissolved in 1998. I asked him about it.
"Oh," he said, "it was a little Internet company that was set up in my barn. It was far too ahead of its time and it didn't really work so I wound it up."
The second company was formed in 1998 and registered with the Personal Investment Authority (PIA) to conduct business in July of that year. It has yet to file any accounts.
But Massow was first registered with the PIA ten years earlier when he was 21 years old. He practised as a sole trader from offices in London, Edinburgh and Manchester. For eight years, he was an appointed representative of DBS Financial Management, a company based in Hull which, in 1997, was fined a record £425,000 by the PIA for its part in the mis-selling of pensions. But there is no suggestion that Massow knew anything about this mis-selling: he was not a director of DBS, nor did he own shares and, soon after the fine, the association with DBS was severed.
Now, Massow owns 90,666 shares in Massow Financial Services with others owning around 39,000 ordinary shares. The holder of 500,000 preference shares in the business is a company called European Financial Services Venture Fund (Commercial Partner), which, Massow says, has supplied the company with financing to the tune of £1 million.
So here is Massow with a stake in a company that has never filed accounts and owes £1 million. How, I asked, could he possibly value that at £15 million?
"I've never said that my stake is worth £15 million," he replied. "It has just been said by people - I think it's because they want to make you sound grander than you are."
So I asked him how his new company was doing. "We've just finished our accounts and they show a turnover of £1 million. I know it's not a lot, but it's only our first year and we've spent a lot of money on advertising. Anyway, the best way to value it maybe is that Catalyst Fund Management has just bought 24 per cent for £1million and 3i Group [one of the largest investment companies in the country] was bidding for it as well, and there are lots more people trying to buy shares at the moment."
I asked Massow if Catalyst was the same company as European Financial Services Venture Fund, and he said that it was. Put simply, this means that the company has been loaned £1 million and that it had a 1999 turnover of £1 million. Massow owns just over half of the shares, but the preferential shareholder will want to be repaid the £1 million loan before anyone can realise any money.
So what about the £15 million stake?
"Look," he said, "the independent financial advice market is set to quadruple in the next two years and we are doing something very soon in the Internet and they are talking about a valuation of £19.5 million. I know it's mad, but there we are."
Massow is a charming fellow and we should all applaud his honesty about his homosexuality and his firm stand on gay rights. But he is not, I think, a man whose shares in his own company are worth £15 million - or anywhere near it.

Maryland School Goes Solar
Dorchester County Public Schools in Maryland unveiled a 803 kW solar array at Mace's Lane Middle School.
The ground-mounted installation consists of 3,276 solar panels and will help provide power to the school.
Washington Gas Energy Systems will own and operate the array under a 20-year power purchasing agreement. Kenyon Energy and REC Solar designed and installed the system. Dorchester County Public Schools provided the property for the system.
Dorchester County Public Schools was the first school district in the state to use geothermal technology as a heating and cooling solution in its schools. To date, five facilities are using this technology. Other sustainability initiatives include the use of domestically produced natural gas for heating, wherever possible, and an energy management program that has saved the district over $1 million in avoided energy costs.
Maryland only recently passed a new aggregate, net-metering law that allows one solar system to serve facilities at various locations. Taking advantage of the new law, last fall, the town of Rock Hall, Md., opened its third new net-metered solar array, which was installed by Standard Solar and will be owned and operated by Washington Gas Energy Systems.
In the case of Mace's Lane Middle School, a Washington Gas Energy Systems spokeswoman said there won't be excess power to be sold to the utility.
