Unions, CCSP Mislead Public in Oakland Clean Truck Program Vote
ARLINGTON, Va., July 20 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Unions and Oakland Harbor Commission President Victor Uno are misleading the public in an attempt to pave the way for the Teamsters to take over Oakland's waterfront drayage operations, which would send truck rates there soaring as much as 53 percent. Increasing drayage truck rates would increase consumers' costs for all products flowing through the port and make Oakland less competitive, the American Trucking Associations said.
"The unions and Mr. Uno aim to destroy small independent businesses serving the Port of Oakland and replace them with larger trucking companies whose employees can be more easily organized by the Teamsters," said ATA Vice President of Public Affairs Clayton Boyce. "Unions and their supporters are wrongly claiming that banning independent owner-operators from the Port of Oakland is necessary to clean the air. The recent experience in the Port of Los Angeles, where clean air efforts are far ahead of schedule even though the L.A. ban on owner-operators has been enjoined, has shown that claim to be false."
The U.S. Court of Appeals and a U.S. District Court ruled earlier this year that banning owner-operators from ports likely violates federal law, rejecting the Port of Los Angeles' claim that a ban was needed to help it achieve its environmental and safety goals. The Appeals Court belittled that position, noting that "[we] see little safety-related merit in those thread-paper arguments, which denigrate small businesses and insist that individuals should work for large employers or not at all."
Unions are asking the Oakland Harbor Commission to vote tomorrow to ask Congress to amend federal transportation law that limits local regulation of interstate transportation and grant an exemption for port drayage hauls of less than 50 miles. In arguing for an exemption, the union organization called the Coalition for Clean & Safe Ports (CCSP) is also misleading the public about the nature of the ATA lawsuit against the Los Angeles and Long Beach Ports.
"The Coalition has falsely stated that ATA asked a federal court 'to kill the clean air program' in those ports," said Curtis Whalen, Executive Director of ATA's Intermodal Motor Carrier Conference. "The Coalition knows that is wrong and that ATA supports those Ports' clean air programs and agree to the ports' graduated ban on older diesel trucks. The fact that ATA secured an injunction against Los Angeles banning independent contractors and that the clean air aspects of the Los Angles Truck Program are moving ahead with great success belies such an outrageous claim."
Finally, the CCSP is also ignoring the Port of Oakland's own economic impact analysis in its flow of misleading propaganda. For example, CCSP has said that independent owner-operators (IOOs) cannot successfully run their own businesses and need unions' help, but the port's own economic impact analysis by the firm Beacon Economics says, "The majority of truckers serving the Port are independent owner-operators who do not wish to become employee drivers."
CCSP said that independent owner-operator drayage drivers are underpaid, but the port's economic analysis says, "IOO and employee driver earnings are comparable, and significantly higher than non-drayage truck driver earnings."
Most importantly, Beacon Economics said that if the CCSP is successful in outlawing independent businesses from port drayage, "Costs of regulatory compliance combined with an employee driver requirement would raise drayage rates by up to 53 percent."
When CCSP and pro-union environmental groups tried the same misleading tactics in Los Angeles and Long Beach recently, newspapers there criticized their methods in strongly worded editorials. Now CCSP is repeating its campaign of vilification in Oakland, Boyce said.
According to the Los Angeles Times, "Despite the arguments of the proponents, there was never a compelling need to eliminate independent truckers, a move that would . . . do nothing to clean the air." The Los Angeles Business Journal said that Mayor Villaraigosa met with Teamsters President James Hoffa to shape the port plan. The mayor and the Port attempted "contorting it into a payoff for union cronies," the journal said.
The Los Angeles Daily News and the Press-Telegram newspaper in Long Beach, whose Port and mayor admirably refused to ban owner-operators, said a Teamsters-inspired campaign by environmental groups "tried to vilify" the mayor and Port and called opponents of an owner-operator ban "immoral." ATA's Boyce "has taken on L.A. politicians and port officials for deliberately misleading the press and the public about a Clean Trucks Program designed to cut diesel pollution. And he is absolutely right," the Press-Telegram said.
Unfazed by the fact that clean air is not related to a driver's employment status, the unions are asking the Oakland Harbor Commission to vote tomorrow to ask Congress to change the federal transportation law to effectively nullify the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision and the federal law that protects motor carriers, shippers and consumers from unnecessary and costly state and local regulations. The unions are willing to disrupt national transportation policy, undermine thousands of small businesses and place millions of dollars of unnecessary cost on freight transportation, just to allow them to better advance their organizing goals.
The American Trucking Associations is the largest national trade association for the trucking industry. Through a federation of other trucking groups, industry-related conferences, and its 50 affiliated state trucking associations, ATA represents more than 37,000 members covering every type of motor carrier in the United States.

The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

The Geography of Recession
By Peter Zeihan
Dear Friends:
One of the first things you learn about analyzing a company is how to
dissect a balance sheet. What assets and liabilities can be deployed by a
company to create equity over time? I've enclosed a fascinating variant on
this process. Take a look at how STRATFOR has analyzed the "geographic
balance sheets" of the US, Russia, China, and Europe to understand why
different countries' economies have suffered to varying degrees from the
current economic crisis.
As investors, it's precisely this type of outside-the-box thinking that can
provide us profitable opportunities, and it's precisely this type of
outside-the-box thinking that makes STRATFOR such an important part of my
investment decision making. The key to investment profits is thinking
differently and thinking earlier than the next guy. STRATFOR's work
exemplifies both these traits.
I've arranged for a special deal on a STRATFOR Membership for my readers,
which you can click here to take advantage of. Many of you are invested in
alternative strategies, but I want to make sure that you also employ
alternative thinking strategies. So take a look at these different "country
balance sheets" as you formulate your plans.
Your Mapping It Out Analyst,

The Geography of Recession

Special Series: The Recession Revisited
Special Series: The Financial Crisis
The global recession is the biggest development in the global system in
the year to date. In the United States, it has become almost dogma that
the recession is the worst since the Great Depression. But this is only
one of a wealth of misperceptions about whom the downturn is hurting most,
and why.
Let's begin with some simple numbers.
As one can see in the chart, the U.S. recession at this point is only the
worst since 1982, not the 1930s, and it pales in comparison to what is
occurring in the rest of the world. (Figures for China have not been
included, in part because of the unreliability of Chinese statistics, but
also because the country's financial system is so radically different from
the rest of the world as to make such comparisons misleading. For more,
read the China section below.)
But didn't the recession begin in the United States? That it did, but the
American system is far more stable, durable and flexible than most of the
other global economies, in large part thanks to the country's geography.
To understand how place shapes economics, we need to take a giant step
back from the gloom and doom of the current moment and examine the
long-term picture of why different regions follow different economic
The United States and the Free Market
The most important aspect of the United States is not simply its sheer
size, but the size of its usable land. Russia and China may both be
similar-sized in absolute terms, but the vast majority of Russian and
Chinese land is useless for agriculture, habitation or development. In
contrast, courtesy of the Midwest, the United States boasts the world's
largest contiguous mass of arable land * and that mass does not include
the hardly inconsequential chunks of usable territory on both the West and
East coasts.
Second is the American maritime transport system. The Mississippi River,
linked as it is to the Red, Missouri, Ohio and Tennessee rivers, comprises
the largest interconnected network of navigable rivers in the world. In
the San Francisco Bay, Chesapeake Bay and Long Island Sound/New York Bay,
the United States has three of the world's largest and best natural
harbors. The series of barrier islands a few miles off the shores of Texas
and the East Coast form a water-based highway * an Intercoastal Waterway *
that shields American coastal shipping from all but the worst that the
elements can throw at ships and ports.
The real beauty is that the two overlap with near perfect symmetry. The
Intercoastal Waterway and most of the bays link up with agricultural
regions and their own local river systems (such as the series of rivers
that descend from the Appalachians to the East Coast), while the Greater
Mississippi river network is the circulatory system of the Midwest. Even
without the addition of canals, it is possible for ships to reach nearly
any part of the Midwest from nearly any part of the Gulf or East coasts.
The result is not just a massive ability to grow a massive amount of crops
* and not just the ability to easily and cheaply move the crops to local,
regional and global markets * but also the ability to use that same
transport network for any other economic purpose without having to worry
about food supplies.
The implications of such a confluence are deep and sustained. Where most
countries need to scrape together capital to build roads and rail to
establish the very foundation of an economy, transport capability,
geography granted the United States a near-perfect system at no cost. That
frees up U.S. capital for other pursuits and almost condemns the United
States to be capital-rich. Any additional infrastructure the United States
constructs is icing on the cake. (The cake itself is free * and,
incidentally, the United States had so much free capital that it was able
to go on to build one of the best road-and-rail networks anyway, resulting
in even greater economic advantages over competitors.)
Third, geography has also ensured that the United States has very little
local competition. To the north, Canada is both much colder and much more
mountainous than the United States. Canada's only navigable maritime
network * the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway *is shared with the United
States, and most of its usable land is hard by the American border. Often
this makes it more economically advantageous for Canadian provinces to
integrate with their neighbor to the south than with their co-nationals to
the east and west.
Similarly, Mexico has only small chunks of land, separated by deserts and
mountains, that are useful for much more than subsistence agriculture;
most of Mexican territory is either too dry, too tropical or too
mountainous. And Mexico completely lacks any meaningful river system for
maritime transport. Add in a largely desert border, and Mexico as a
country is not a meaningful threat to American security (which hardly
means that there are not serious and ongoing concerns in the
American-Mexican relationship).
With geography empowering the United States and hindering Canada and
Mexico, the United States does not need to maintain a large standing
military force to counter either. The Canadian border is almost completely
unguarded, and the Mexican border is no more than a fence in most
locations * a far cry from the sort of military standoffs that have marked
more adversarial borders in human history. Not only are Canada and Mexico
not major threats, but the U.S. transport network allows the United States
the luxury of being able to quickly move a smaller force to deal with
occasional problems rather than requiring it to station large static
forces on its borders.
Like the transport network, this also helps the U.S. focus its resources
on other things.
Taken together, the integrated transport network, large tracts of usable
land and lack of a need for a standing military have one critical
implication: The U.S. government tends to take a hands-off approach to
economic management, because geography has not cursed the United States
with any endemic problems. This may mean that the United States * and
especially its government * comes across as disorganized, but it shifts
massive amounts of labor and capital to the private sector, which for the
most part allows resources to flow to wherever they will achieve the most
efficient and productive results.
Laissez-faire capitalism has its flaws. Inequality and social stress are
just two of many less-than-desirable side effects. The side effects most
relevant to the current situation are, of course, the speculative bubbles
that cause recessions when they pop. But in terms oflong-term economic
efficiency and growth, a free capital system is unrivaled. For the United
States, the end result has proved clear: The United States has exited each
decade since post-Civil War Reconstruction more powerful than it was when
it entered it. While there are many forces in the modern world that
threaten various aspects of U.S. economic standing, there is not one that
actually threatens the U.S. base geographic advantages.
Is the United States in recession? Of course. Will it be forever? Of
course not. So long as U.S. geographic advantages remain intact, it takes
no small amount of paranoia and pessimism to envision anything but
long-term economic expansion for such a chunk of territory. In fact, there
are a number of factors hinting that the United States may even be on the
cusp of recovery.
Russia and the State
If in economic terms the United States has everything going for it
geographically, thenRussia is just the opposite. The Russian steppe lies
deep in the interior of the Eurasian landmass, and as such is subject to
climatic conditions much more hostile to human habitation and agriculture
than is the American Midwest. Even in those blessed good years when crops
are abundant in Russia, it has no river network to allow for easy
transport of products.
Russia has no good warm-water ports to facilitate international trade (and
has spent much of its history seeking access to one). Russia does have
long rivers, but they are not interconnected as the Mississippi is with
its tributaries, instead flowing north to the Arctic Ocean, which can
support no more than a token population. The one exception is the Volga,
which is critical to Western Russian commerce but flows to the Caspian, a
storm-wracked and landlocked sea whose delta freezes in the winter (along
with the entire Volga itself). Developing such unforgiving lands requires
a massive outlay of funds simply to build the road and rail networks
necessary to achieve the most basic of economic development. The cost is
so extreme that Russia's first ever intercontinental road was not
completed until the 21st century, and it is little more than a two-lane
path for much of its length. Between the lack of ports and the relatively
low population densities, little of Russia's transport system beyond the
St. Petersburg/Moscow corridor approaches anything that hints of economic
Russia also has no meaningful external borders. It sits on the eastern end
of the North European Plain, which stretches all the way to Normandy,
France, and Russia's connections to the Asian steppe flow deep into China.
Because Russia lacks a decent internal transport network that can rapidly
move armies from place to place, geography forces Russia to defend itself
following two strategies. First, it requires massive standing armies on
all of its borders. Second, it dictates that Russia continually push its
boundaries outward to buffer its core against external threats.
Both strategies compromise Russian economic development even further. The
large standing armies are a continual drain on state coffers and the
country's labor pool; their cost was a critical economic factor in the
Soviet fall. The expansionist strategy not only absorbs large populations
that do not wish to be part of the Russian state and so must constantly be
policed * the core rationale for Russia's robust security services * but
also inflates Russia's infrastructure development costs by increasing the
amount of relatively useless territory Moscow is responsible for.
Russia's labor and capital resources are woefully inadequate to overcome
the state's needs and vulnerabilities, which are legion. These endemic
problems force Russia toward central planning; the full harnessing of all
economic resources available is required if Russia is to achieve even a
modicum of security and stability. One of the many results of this is
severe economic inefficiency and a general dearth of an internal consumer
market. Because capital and other resources can be flung forcefully at
problems, however, active management can achieve specific national goals
more readily than a hands-off, American-style model. This often gives the
impression of significant progress in areas the Kremlin chooses to
But such achievements are largely limited to wherever the state happens to
be directing its attention. In all other sectors, the lack of attention
results in atrophy or criminalization. This is particularly true in modern
Russia, where the ruling elite comprises just a handful of people, starkly
limiting the amount of planning and oversight possible. And unless
management is perfect in perception and execution, any mistakes are
quickly magnified into national catastrophes. It is therefore no surprise
to STRATFOR that the Russian economy has now fallen the furthest of any
major economy during the current recession.
China and Separatism
China also faces significant hurdles, albeit none as daunting as Russia's
challenges. China's core is the farmland of the Yellow River basin in the
north of the country, a river that is not readily navigable and is
remarkably flood prone. Simply avoiding periodic starvation requires a
high level of state planning and coordination. (Wrestling a large river is
not the easiest thing one can do.) Additionally, the southern half of the
country has a subtropical climate, riddling it with diseases that the
southerners are resistant to but the northerners are not. This compromises
the north's political control of the south.
Central control is also threatened by China's maritime geography. China
boasts two other rivers, but they do not link to each other or the Yellow
naturally. And China's best ports are at the mouths of these two rivers:
Shanghai at the mouth of the Yangtze and Hong Kong/Macau/Guangzhou at the
mouth of the Pearl. The Yellow boasts no significant ocean port. The end
result is that other regional centers can and do develop economic means
independent of Beijing.
With geography complicating northern rule and supporting southern economic
independence, Beijing's age-old problem has been trying to keep China in
one piece. Beijing has to underwrite massive (and expensive) development
programs to stitch the country together with a common infrastructure, the
most visible of which is the Grand Canal that links the Yellow and Yangtze
rivers. The cost of such linkages instantly guarantees that while China
may have a shot at being unified, it will always be capital-poor.
Beijing also has to provide its autonomy-minded regions with an economic
incentive to remain part of Greater China, and "simple" infrastructure
will not cut it. Modern China has turned to a state-centered finance model
for this. Under the model, all of the scarce capital that is available is
funneled to the state, which divvies it out via a handful of large state
banks. These state banks then grant loans to various firms and local
governments at below the cost of raising the capital. This provides a
powerful economic stimulus that achieves maximum employment and growth *
think of what you could do with a near-endless supply of loans at below 0
percent interest * but comes at the cost of encouraging projects that are
loss-making, as no one is ever called to account for failures. (They can
just get a new loan.) The resultant growth is rapid, but it is also
unsustainable. It is no wonder, then, that the central government has
chosen to keep its $2 trillion of currency reserves in dollar-based
assets; the rate of return is greater, the value holds over a long period,
and Beijing doesn't have to worry about the United States seceding.
Because the domestic market is considerably limited by the poor-capital
nature of the country, most producers choose to tap export markets to
generate income. In times of plenty this works fairly well, but when
Chinese goods are not needed, the entire Chinese system can seize up. Lack
of exports reduces capital availability, which constrains loan
availability. This in turn not only damages the ability of firms to employ
China's legions of citizens, but it also removes the primary reason the
disparate Chinese regions pay homage to Beijing. China's geography
hardwires in a series of economic challenges that weaken the coherence of
the state and make China dependent upon uninterrupted access to foreign
markets to maintain state unity. As a result, China has not been a unified
entity for the vast majority of its history, but instead a cauldron of
competing regions that cleave along many different fault lines: coastal
versus interior, Han versus minority, north versus south.
China's survival technique for the current recession is simple. Because
exports, which account for roughly half of China's economic activity, have
sunk by half, Beijing is throwing the equivalent of the financial kitchen
sink at the problem. China has force-fed more loans through the banks in
the first four months of 2009 than it did in the entirety of 2008. The
long-term result could well bury China beneath a mountain of bad loans * a
similar strategy resulted in Japan's 1991 crash, from which Tokyo has yet
to recover. But for now it is holding the country together. The bottom
line remains, however: China's recovery is completely dependent upon
external demand for its production, and the most it can do on its own is
tread water.
Discordant Europe
Europe faces an imbroglio somewhat similar to China's.
Europe has a number of rivers that are easily navigable, providing a
wealth of trade and development opportunities. But none of them interlinks
with the others, retarding political unification. Europe has even more
good harbors than the United States, but they are not evenly spread
throughout the Continent, making some states capital-rich and others
capital-poor. Europe boasts one huge piece of arable land on the North
European Plain, but it is long and thin, and so occupied by no fewer than
seven distinct ethnic groups.
These groups have constantly struggled * as have the various groups up and
down Europe's seemingly endless list of river valleys * but none has been
able to emerge dominant, due to the webwork of mountains and peninsulas
that make it nigh impossible to fully root out any particular group. And
Europe's wealth of islands close to the Continent, with Great Britain
being only the most obvious, guarantee constant intervention to ensure
that mainland Europe never unifies under a single power.
Every part of Europe has a radically different geography than the other
parts, and thus the economic models the Europeans have adopted have little
in common. The United Kingdom, with few immediate security threats and
decent rivers and ports, has an almost American-style laissez-faire
system. France, with three unconnected rivers lying wholly in its own
territory, is a somewhat self-contained world, making economic nationalism
its credo. Not only do the rivers in Germany not connect, but Berlin has
to share them with other states. The Jutland Peninsula interrupts the
coastline of Germany, which finds its sea access limited by the Danes, the
Swedes and the British. Germany must plan in great detail to maximize its
resource use to build an infrastructure that can compensate for its
geographic deficiencies and link together its good * but disparate *
geographic blessings. The result is a state that somewhat favors free
enterprise, but within the limits framed by national needs.
And the list of differences goes on: Spain has long coasts and is arid;
Austria is landlocked and quite wet; most of Greece is almost too
mountainous to build on; it doesn't get flatter than the Netherlands; tiny
Estonia faces frozen seas in the winter; mammoth Italy has never even seen
an icebreaker. Even if there were a supranational authority in Europe that
could tax or regulate the banking sector or plan transnational responses,
the propriety of any singular policy would be questionable at best.
Such stark regional differences give rise to such variant policies that
many European states have a severe (and understandable) trust deficit when
it comes to any hint of anything supranational. We are not simply taking
about the European Union here, but rather a general distrust of anything
cross-border in nature. One of the many outcomes of this is a preference
for using local banks rather than stock exchanges for raising capital.
After all, local banks tend to use local capital and are subject to local
regulations, while stock exchanges tend to be internationalized in all
respects. Spain, Italy, Sweden, Greece and Austria get more than 90
percent of their financing from banks, the United Kingdom 84 percent and
Germany 76 percent * while for the United States it is only 40 percent.
And this has proved unfortunate in the extreme for today's Europe. The
current recession has its roots in a financial crisis that has most
dramatically impacted banks, andEuropean banks have proved far from
immune. Until Europe's banks recover, Europe will remain mired in
recession. And since there cannot be a Pan-European solution, Europe's
recession could well prove to be the worst of all this time around.

The pocket is way too small. There is barely any room to put anything in side; at most it can fit 2 CD cases. You can't put coins in it either since it has two holes in the back bottom. The storage pocket does not have an edge-to-edge pocket. The pocket is actually a quarter inch from the top and bottom. This severely limits the pocket room.
Installation was confusing, even with my friend who had installed kits before. The kit came with a few plastic adapter brackets; we did not know whether or not to use them, the instructions did not help. In the end, we just added one adapter piece to the back, then used the old holding brackets from the original head unit.

Awesome little unit for the price! Easy to install with free included harness and connections (Sony MEX-BT4100P bundled for me with Scosche HA1563B and Scosche HA02B for my specific car). Definitely worthwhile to get with it for that easy set up. Unit in particular has a lot of good features for the price, main pieces for me being bluetooth and external outputs. One wish would have been to have integrated bluetooth vs a necessary corded microphone, but cant beat that price. Love Sony! Sounds good (currently connected to four sony xplod 6 1/2's) with all features working. Only negative is the sony app, whereas it works fine, though wish it would auto-activate or power up once bluetooth recognizes its connected to the headunit (samsung s3 phone). not a deal breaker though. awesome headunit as a whole!

Kansas City Chiefs' starting right tackle Donald Stephenson has been banned by the NFL for four games following a performance-enhancing substance violation.
The 25-year-old has not missed a Chiefs game since being taken in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft and blamed his lack of a theraputic-use exemption for the violation.
"I'm extremely sorry that I failed to check with the NFL, NFL Players Association or Chiefs medical team before I took a medication that requires a therapeutic use exemption," Stephenson said in an apology statement released by the players' union.
"It is not a mistake I will ever make again. I will train extremely hard during my time away from the team and I will be ready to contribute to my team's effort to win a Super Bowl as soon as I return."
Stephenson will miss the clashes with Tennessee, Denver, Miami and New England.
A statement released by the Chiefs read: "Obviously losing Donald is disappointing but we are in full compliance with the league's policy."

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.Honore de Balzac

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 40th Anniversary Edition (1974) Review
Former schoolteacher Tobe Hooper decided that his Hollywood calling card would be to make a movie about 'a whole family of Geins'. Having grown up listening to tales about the Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein, Hooper 'borrowed' the same inspiration for his tale that author Robert Bloch did for his novel Psycho, and Thomas Harris later did for The Silence of the Lambs. It was when he was Christmas shopping that he got the idea for the implement that was to adorn the hand of his story's lead nutcase Leatherface. 'I was shopping in a crowded Sears's department store in Austin, Texas, when I started to have a panic attack. I was thinking, 'Please God, show me a way out of here...' And there right in front of my eyes was a big display of chainsaws.'
The 'Burbs (1989) Review
In 1989 the world was massively psyched up for just one cinematic event. The film was heavily advertised, pushed further by songs both inspired and featured in the film, courtesy of pop superstar Prince. Elsewhere merchandise tie-in's for the film saturated the marketplace. You couldn't escape it. That film was Tim Burton's Batman.
For all it's Gothic majesty Tim Burton's Batman turned out to be a bit of a non-event as an actual film event, later better by Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy. In the shadow of such a heavily-hyped behemoth Joe Dante's The 'Burbs was met with mediocre box office receipts and a lukewarm reception from the critics. Twenty-five years later Burton's behemoth has been forgotten but Dante's suburban nightmare has found a life of its own garnering a sizeable following.
The Incredible Melting Man (1977) Review
Meet Steve (Alex Rebar), he's an astronaut. He's in space with two other nameless astronauts. Their ship passes through the rings of Saturn. Stock footage of a solar flare is seen. Now we are back on Earth. Steve is bandaged up and seeking medical attention at some undisclosed location. Unlike most hospitals though Steve is allowed to wear his own pyjamas. The doctor is in a bit of a state about Steve's condition and is keen to have Steve's condition played down until NASA are consulted (you mean NASA missed Steve's condition when he returned from space?)
Witches of East End Season 1 (2013) Review
First off, I don't really think that I am the demographic that the makers of Witches of East End are aiming at. If I were then add an extra star and a half to the rating given. The rating showing is not indicative of the quality of the show, Witches of East End is perfectly made and constructed, it's just not geared to appeal to the likes of me.
Secondly the title was a bit off-putting. I had visions of The Witches of Eastwick laced with the likes of Dot Cotton chuffing on another smoke in TV's East End. I was ready to write it off. But what's this? Witches of East End stars Julia Ormond! She's no Dot Cotton! And the Candyman's Virginia Masden too! Even better. My appetite was whetted sufficiently by the mention of their names in the casting, along with former Twin Peak's star Mädchen Amick.

Sather: Lots of interest in Brian Boyle
Rangers GM Glen Sather raised some eyebrows last week when he told Edmonton's Team 1260 that he's received lots of interest in center Brian Boyle, but is loath to deal the 28-year-old.
"I've had a lot of requests for Brian's services," Sather said. "I'm not anxious to trade him. I think he's a good player, he's a great team guy and I think he has still an upside to go to. He's one of those guys you may regret trading if you do trade him so I'm not anxious to do anything with him at this time." Read more »

Darth Vader clock radio has no patience for your sloth
Nothing will get you out of bed faster than Darth Vader staring at you in bed. I mean, it's just hard to feel comfortable under the covers when you know the Sith Lord is staring you down.
If that sounds pleasant to you, the Darth Vader clock radio might be right up your alley. With the time displayed in the eyes, you'll have to look right into his dark soul to see if it's time to wake up or not. Even better? Darth will wake you up with his trademark James Earl Jones voice. And if that doesn't get you out of bed, well, nothing will.

Although often portrayed as a religious conflict, the crisis in Nigeria's Central Plateau State is of a social and economic nature, the foreign minister has told church leaders.
A world churches delegation has asked Nigeria's religious leaders to encourage different ethnic and faith groups to promote lasting peace in violence-affected communities.
The avowedly Christian governor of Nigeria's Plateau state, Jonah David Jang, says that "religion is used to cover up all conflicts, although other factors also exist".
Nigeria's acting president, Goodluck Jonathan, a Christian, has been sworn in as the country's president following the death of his Muslim predecessor, Umaru Yar'Adua.
Nigerian Methodist Archbishop Michael Kehinde Stephen has been chosen to moderate the Continuing Committee on Ecumenism in the 21st Century, a group assigned to monitor and encourage initiatives in a global quest for Christian unity.
The progress of a bill in Nigeria that that would impose brutal penalties on shows of affection between lesbian and gay people has been halted in the face of national elections in the country.
A law in Nigeria that would impose brutal penalties on shows of affection between lesbian and gay people, or even on those who would advocate for lesbian and gay people, has been condemned by more than 250 Christian leaders from the US.

Welcome and thanks for stopping by.
As you may have heard we are in a very "active" market here in the Bay Area.
What does that really mean? To put it succinctly; things are selling fast (30 days or less), homes in traditionally "nice neighborhoods", walkable, near public transportation or ones that offer flexibility for expanding families, provide bonus creative space, and have an indoor outdoor connection command a premium and appeal to (usually) more than one buyer -> "multiple offers".
I am well versed in this market – representing buyers, sellers and investors, in a wide range of price points and end goals. Success in this market requires a game plan, patience, education, number crunching and local knowledge. Sellers need a process and plan as well – for example, what are the top 3-5 repair/upgrade items that will result in a more successful sale?
Feel free to contact directly to learn more about how I work and how I can help you with your buying and selling needs.

Why do non-returners exist as a distinct category?
In other words, why is it that to be a stream-enterer or a once-returner or an Arahant requires some kind of distinct effort, yet the last 5 fetters (Conceit, Restlessness, Ignorance, Rupa-raga & Arupa-Raga) can simply be overcome by dying and being reborn in a Pure Abode?
Why can't there be heavens where people can overcome the first 5 fetters (and all 10), without any chance of failure? Or how is it that non-returners never fail once they are in Pure Abodes? Is it the Pure Abodes themselves or something special about the process of dying?
And lastly (perhaps most importantly of all), what exactly is it that Arahants have or do that non-returners do not, that allows them to overcome such things? The last 5 seem the most problematic, because to even attempt to go about eliminating them is itself an act of entertaining (and therefore furthering) their existence.

Three Maoists were killed in an encounter with Jharkhand Jaguar Special Task Force (STF) and the Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA) of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Peerhi forest near Garu in Latehar district on Monday morning.
The encounter took place less than 15 km from Katiya forest where 11 security personnel of CRPF and Jharkhand Jaguar STF were killed by Maoists on January 7.
Senior police and CRPF officials claimed that the security personnel had killed seven Maoists. "The encounter began at 9 30 am based on an intelligence input shared by the police officials in Latehar. Our men shot seven Maoists though the Maoists managed to take away four bodies with them when they fled," said CRPF spokesperson IG M V Rao. "This was a large group of Maoists in battalion-like formation and there is still exchange of fire on."
Ammunition including one INSAS rifle and two .315 rifles, and wireless sets and SIM cards were recovered, they said.

Reconciling justice, selfishness, and compassion when the only way to be free of pain is death
My father, a lifelong atheist, died at 91 in a Catholic hospice center. He received excellent, compassionate care from his nurses and from a doctor who willingly administered the morphine needed to ease his suffering -- although, she advised, it would hasten his death. Did she violate the doctrine of a church actively opposing a Death with Dignity proposal now on the ballot in Massachusetts?
The medical team was administering palliative care, not assisting in a suicide. According to a Church spokeswoman, "You can have whatever level of morphine you need to control the pain, even if that level of treatment hastens death." Palliative care is "legitimate," even when it risks "shortening life," Cardinal Sean O'Malley explains -- so long as "the intent is not to hasten death, but only to ease the pain of a dying patient."
The view of suicide as selfish, even when undertaken to avoid extreme pain and suffering, is central to the debate over it.
I guess God knows the intent of every physician who administers pain medication to terminal patients, but law enforcement officials can't be expected to know it. And sometimes, palliative care involves not just "the risk of shortening life" but the knowledge that it will shorten life. What if the only way to ease pain is to shorten life?
Put aside, for the moment, arguments about the right to die, and consider this: If Cardinal O'Malley's principle is the basis for secular law, if "legitimate" end-of-life care is distinguished from illegitimate "killing" on the basis of a district attorney's perception of intent, doctors risk prosecution when they administer palliative care, and patients risk gratuitous suffering. If my father's doctor had been subject to a law laid down by the Catholic bishops, she might have let him suffer harder and longer, gasping for air, in his last days.
According to the bishops, "a society that devalues some people's lives, by hastening and facilitating their deaths, will ultimately lose respect for their other rights and freedoms."
This makes little sense if you consider few freedoms more fundamental than the freedom to end your own life on your own terms, when confronting a terminal illness and inevitable pain and suffering you'd rather avoid. But this concept of freedom deeply offends the Church: Physician-assisted suicide "would create pressures to limit our freedom, because it could establish an expectation that certain people will be better served by being dead, a dubious premise indeed," Cardinal Sean O'Malley declares.
I don't begrudge the Cardinal his differing view of liberty or the belief that assisted suicide cheapens regard for life. I do begrudge him and other opponents of assisted suicide their slippery, inflammatory arguments against it.
"By rescinding legal protection for the lives of a category of people, the government sends a message that some people are better off dead," O'Malley preached last year.
Let's parse this rhetoric. First, the people must approve the Massachusetts Death with Dignity proposal at the ballot box. It will not be a directive laid down by "the government." Second, while O'Malley can fairly speculate that physician-assisted suicide is a step down a slippery slope toward euthanasia, he cannot honestly describe the Massachusetts proposal as a form of euthanasia that will "rescind" existing "legal protections" or the right to life enjoyed by any "category of people." Instead, as the Cardinal must know, the proposal formally extends new legal protections and a limited, heavily regulated right to die to a very small category of people who are terminally ill.
The Death with Dignity Act will allow doctors to prescribe lethal medications to adult patients, "medically determined" to be competent and capable of communicating their desires and medically diagnosed with terminal diseases expected to cause death within 6 months. Patients will be required to make two requests for medication, on two occasions, 15 days apart, and to sign standard request forms, in the presence of witnesses, "one of whom is not a relative, a beneficiary of the patient's estate, or an owner, operator, or employee of a health care facility where the patient receives treatment or lives."
My mother drifted in and out of consciousness, acutely aware of her circumstances, tracking her own death, apparently impatiently. "Why does it take so long?" she asked.
This process will be voluntary, not just for patients, but for health care providers. Doctors who do participate will be required to report every case in which they dispense lethal medication to the Department of Health. Still, opponents of physician-assisted suicide claim that, despite regulatory safeguards, it leads to the murder of people considered expendable or burdensome by their relatives, insurance companies, or society in general.

To avoid shrinking altogether you should just air-dry your shirts without the use of a dryer.
Cotton shirts conventionally shrink ~%5 after a wash and dry cycle. If you're definitely going to use a dryer, I would play it safe with a medium. Otherwise, just get a small and air-dry.
