The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
G3* - UK/EU/SWEDEN/IRELAND/CZECH REPUBLIC/GV - UK's Cameron holds talks with potential EU allies

Wed Dec 14, 2011 6:09pm EST
Dec 14 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister David Cameron held talks on
Wednesday with potential allies in the European Union as he seeks to avoid
isolation after vetoing EU treaty changes to allow closer fiscal union by
euro zone members.
Britain, the EU's third largest economy, was left on its own when 26 of
the 27 member states led by Germany and France agreed on Dec. 9 to press
ahead with a separate treaty for deeper economic integration to save the
euro currency.
Cameron, who vetoed an EU-wide agreement after failing to win safeguards
he had sought for Britain's important financial services industry, has
held phone conversations with several EU leaders in the last two days, his
spokesman said.
He said Cameron spoke to Czech Prime Minister Petr Necas and Swedish Prime
Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt on Wednesday and to Irish Prime Minister Enda
Kenny on Tuesday.
The Czech Republic and Sweden are seen as possible waverers on a fiscal
convergence deal, while Ireland is worried about a proposed pan-European
financial transactions tax that could hurt its financial services industry
while bypassing nearby Britain.
Cameron assured all the leaders that Britain wanted the new arrangement to
succeed, but said that without the safeguards he sought it was best that
the 17-member euro zone proceeded outside the EU's Lisbon Treaty, his
spokesman said.
Cameron told the other leaders that "Britain ... wanted to find the right
way forward that preserved the proper role of the EU and its institutions
as the guardian of the treaties and the single market," the spokesman
Non-euro zone member Britain has raised concerns about EU institutions it
says are intended for all 27 states, such as the European Commission and
the European Court of Justice, being used to enforce any new euro zone
"In each call the leaders agreed to build on their close cooperation on EU
issues, especially promoting jobs and growth through the single market.
They agreed that the priority for the European economy remained
comprehensive and decisive action to deal with debt and increase
competitiveness," Cameron's spokesman said.
Several of the non-euro zone governments that went along with the new
inter-governmental plan on fiscal union, including Sweden, Hungary and the
Czech Republic, still need parliamentary approval before they can give
their full backing to the move.
Sweden said on Tuesday it was uncertain about signing up to the pact,
raising the possibility of it joining Britain on the sidelines.
Ireland warned on Wednesday its financial services industry may be at risk
from Britain's opt-out. Britain's decision could also cause political
problems for the Irish government, which is keen to avoid putting its
participation in the new fiscal union to a referendum.
Cameron also held a private meeting on Wednesday evening with legislators
from his centre-right Conservative Party.
Members of Cameron's largely eurosceptic party were pleased with his veto
but it has caused a rift with his junior coalition partner, the
pro-European Liberal Democrats.
The Guardian newspaper quoted one senior Conservative as saying Cameron
told the meeting that there was "no question" of there being 26 EU member
states against Britain.
"There are a number of countries that are not all sure what they are being
asked to sign up to," the source was quoted as saying. A spokesman for
Cameron declined comment.

Grant to Help Develop Dental Fillings that Self-Heal, Fight Cavities
Posted on February 4, 2014
The American Dental Association and the ADA Foundation announced that the foundation's Anthony Volpe Research Center (VRC) has received a 5-year, $2.2 million grant from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) to develop new resin composite dental fillings. VRC scientists plan to use the grant money to research and develop new polymers that are BPA-free and not susceptible to enzymatic or hydrolytic degradation. They also hope to establish self-healing systems to significantly extend the life of composites, and to formulate smart antibacterial components.
Dentists in the United States currently place more than 122 million composite dental fillings every year. But the average lifetime of those composites is only eight years. Current composite filling technology is nearly 50 years old. "There have been major advances over the past decade in chemistry, microbiology, imaging, and other potentially important areas," said Dr. Martha Somerman, NIDCR director. "Let's get the right people talking to each other and see if it's possible to double the service life of tomorrow's dental composites."

Garmin Nuvi 3597LMTHD
Magellan SmartGPS
starsOld meets new as the SmartGPS system blends traditional GPS hardware with a smartphone...
TomTom GO Live 1535M
Garmin nüvi Essentials
TomTom's got one . Magellan's got one . Now, we have our hands on Garmin's newest 5-inch GPS navigator. Dwarfing the current norm of 4.3-inch units, the Garmin Nuvi 1490T's big screen makes it that much easier to view from its perch on a car's dashboard or windshield. With Bluetooth hands-free calling, free traffic data, and a clever, green driving suite of tools, this big fellow is not a bad choice for people looking for a good blend of advanced functionality and ease of use.
The Nuvi 1490T's most distinguishing feature is its large 5-inch screen. Compared with the 4.3-inch units we normally see these days, the extra real estate is quite obvious. There also appears to be a slight increase in screen brightness. At arms length, the larger onscreen buttons are easier to hit, making light work of address entry. However, screen resolution remains the same 480x272 pixels as the 4.3-inch Garmin units, so the display's pixels are slightly more obvious and its text is rendered with more aliasing.
The unit features a glossy, black bezel with a small pinhole microphone in its lower left edge. The left side is home to a microSD card slot and on the top edge features the power/lock button. Flipping the Nuvi over reveals its matte-finished back panel. Here you'll find the Mini-USB port for charging and syncing and the unit's speaker.
Also in the box is a suction cup windshield-mounting bracket, a 12-volt car charger with a Mini-USB tip and integrated FM traffic antenna, an adhesive dashboard-mounting puck, and an assortment of user guides and warranty papers.
The Nuvi 1490T's home screen features two large icons for the two major functions of a portable navigation device: finding a destination and browsing the map. Along the top edge of this screen is a status bar with icons for GPS signal strength, Bluetooth status, navigation mode, current time, and battery state. Touching the Bluetooth icon jumps straight to a hands-free setup screen; the navigation mode icon lets users select between automobile, pedestrian, or bicycle navigation modes; and tapping the time brings up the time settings screen. Of course, the time is automatically set by the GPS signal, so this last option is largely unnecessary.
The bottom edge of the home screen is where you can find the volume controls and the tools menu. With a destination chosen, the bottom bar will also display options for detour and stop navigation and if a phone is paired, here is also where the phone menu will appear.
You can select your destination using an address or by searching a preloaded database of points of interest. Address entry and search use the onscreen QWERTY keyboard, which is quite nice as far as navigation keyboards go. It doesn't feature any sort of predictive blanking of keys, but will display a list of possible completions once you've gotten a few letters punched in. The resistive touch screen requires more pressing effort than most smartphones, but after a few entries, we quickly got used to bearing down.
Meanwhile, the map screen is able to display 2D or 3D maps that are easy to understand and read at a glance. The top bar displays the current street or the next turn. Along the bottom edge is a back button for returning to the home screen, a configurable button that displays routing data (ETA, direction of travel, elevation, etc.) and a speed display that, when clicked, takes you to a trip computer screen.
Along the map's left edge is the traffic icon that is gray when traffic data is unavailable, green when the route is all clear, or turns yellow or red when obstructions are ahead. It also displays an estimated delay time. On the right edge are transparent buttons for zooming in and out and an EcoChallenge score icon, which we discuss in the next section.
EcoRoute is a suite of tools and functions that the Nuvi uses to help drivers get to their destinations while using less fuel and emitting less carbon.

Harris drops out of race for Congress, endorses Kelly
By Danielle Neveles Corrrespondent January 30, 2013 5:02PM
Napoleon Harris

Updated: March 2, 2013 11:46AM
Issues of housing, jobs, public education and gun violence dominated a debate Wednesday night involving five candidates for the Democratic primary election in the 2nd Congressional District.
Former U.S. Rep. Debbie Halvorson, of Crete; attorney Ernest B. Fenton, of Markham; Chicago Ald. Anthony Beale (9th); state Sen. Toi Hutchinson (D-Olympia Fields) and Robin Kelly, of Matteson, a former state representative and top Cook County official, took part in the debate at Rich Central High School.
Earlier Wednesday, the crowded field of candidates was reduced to 16 when state Sen. Napoleon Harris (D-Flossmoor) dropped out, endorsing Kelly.
The Feb. 26 primary is equivalent to election in the heavily Democratic district that stretches from Chicago's South Side through the south suburbs to Kankakee. The post is open because of the Nov. 21 resignation of former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.
The five debate participants pledged to fight for district residents by pushing for mortgage relief to reduce foreclosures and to promote economic development to help lower homeowners' property tax bills.
A major topic was gun violence, and the killing this week of a 15-year-old girl in Chicago, who had attended President Obama's inauguration with her school band, was cited by the candidates in proposing stricter gun control.
As a mother, Hutchinson said she personally connected to the tragic shooting death because it reminded her of her daughter who's about the same age.
Halvorson is the only 2nd District Democratic candidate to publicly oppose a ban on assault weapons and large-capacity bullet magazines. She said the focus must be on who has access to guns rather than the guns themselves.
"I'm going to fight to make sure criminals don't get guns," she said.
Some candidates said they had personal experience with gun violence. Beale said he has attended too many funerals for gun victims in his ward. Kelly said she has spent more than 20 years working for gun control to make communities safe.
Fenton was a crowd favorite, emphasizing affordable housing and fighting foreclosures. Many in the audience repeatedly applauded his ideas and what he called "being real."
Beale boasted of doing more for "job creation than any other candidate up here. I brought many Wal-Mart jobs to my ward."
In a statement Wednesday, Harris, a first-term state senator, said he threw his support behind Kelly because of their similar philosophies.
"I believe we need to fight for more educational opportunity, better jobs and to get guns out of the hands of criminals and gangs that are preying on our neighborhoods," he said.

Photos: [top] Jack and [bottom] Jill, before and after receiving treatment at the ASPCA Animal Hospital.
Can you imagine leaving your pets behind in your former home, even in the worst possible circumstances? We can't either. And yet, after Jerome Smith, 23, was evicted from his Harlem apartment, he chose to do just that to his six-month-old puppies.
When New York City Animal Care & Control officers opened the door to Smith's former home in September, they found Terrier mix puppies Jack and Jill, all alone and in bad shape.
The officers called ASPCA Humane Law Enforcement, and our agents brought the pups to the ASPCA Animal Hospital right away.
ASPCA veterinarians found Jack and Jill to be dehydrated, malnourished and severely underweight. Jack weighed 12.7 pounds and Jill weighed 8.5 pounds. By contrast, after being fed a balanced diet and receiving treatment by ASPCA staff, Jack now weighs 36.5 pounds and Jill weighs 30.3 pounds—a 187 and 256 percent increase, respectively.
The ASPCA arrested Smith in December. He was charged with two counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty. If convicted, he faces up to two years in jail and/or a $2,000 fine.
Jack and Jill's story ends happily. On January 13, Jill was adopted! Jack is waiting for a forever family at the ASPCA Adoption Center, located in Manhattan. To learn more about how you can adopt Jack, please visit the ASPCA Adoption Center online.
Update 1/18/13: We are thrilled to report that Jack was adopted!
If you suspect you've witnessed animal cruelty, please report it.
I agree - he probably did not even care and he'll end up with just a slap in the face - they need to really start enforcing punishment for animal cruelty charges - if he would do this to an innocent animal (or in this case, two scared innocent dogs), he would have no reservations doing this to people, just a hunch url=http://www..comemate.com ]keyword[/url]

Manti Te'o could be Brian Urlacher's heir apparent
BY ADAM L. JAHNS firstname.lastname@example.com February 19, 2013 10:48PM
Notre Dame's Manti Te'o is seen in action during the second half of the BCS National Championship college football game against Alabama's Crimson Tide on Monday, Jan. 7, 2013, in Miami. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)
Here are the top three inside linebackers in the 2013 draft:
Name School Ht. Wt. Year Proj. Rd.
Alec Ogletree Georgia 6-3 234 Jr. 1
Quote: "Ogletree is potentially a top-10 player who has had significant [off-the-field] issues." — Mike Mayock
Kevin Minter LSU 6-1 245 Jr. 1-2
Quote: "A guy who has moved up a lot. . . . He was a tackling machine." — Mel Kiper Jr.
Manti Te'o Notre Dame 6-2 255 Sr. 1-2
Quote: "[It's] not a lock that he's going to be a great passing-down middle linebacker." — Todd McShay
Updated: March 21, 2013 6:37AM
Manti Te'o probably will feel uncomfortable — and he should.
After being involved in that notorious catfishing controversy, teams will want to know anything and everything about the once-praised Notre Dame linebacker during interviews at the NFL Scouting Combine, which opens Wednesday in Indianapolis.
Of course, that includes the Bears.
With no Andrew Lucks or Robert Griffins this year, Te'o, with his capricious draft status, headlines the combine. For the Bears, the combine also could be about finding an heir apparent to Brian Urlacher, whose future remains unknown.
Maybe it's Te'o.
NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock and ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. and Todd McShay rate Te'o as a first-rounder who could be available when the Bears' No. 20 pick comes up. McShay, in his latest projections, actually has the Bears selecting Te'o.
"I think this is around the range that [Te'o] goes, somewhere in the 10-to-25 range," McShay said. "I think 10 would probably be too high, and it really has nothing to do with the off-the-field stuff. That's just where he grades out as a player.
"One of the questions is: Can he be a really good third-down or passing-down middle linebacker? This year helped him [with] the seven interceptions. But the more I'm studying, the instincts got him in position, and he was quicker this year because he took off some weight, and you could tell he was just moving better than he had in years past."
The Bears certainly have done their homework on Te'o, but meeting with him and others could determine if a linebacker rates higher on their draft board than certain offensive linemen, another glaring area of need.
Te'o, Georgia's Alec Ogletree and LSU's Kevin Minter are the only inside linebackers who rate as first-rounders. But Te'o (catfishing controversy) and Ogletree (DUI arrest) come with concerns.
"I would tell Te'o, 'You better look people in the eye, and I know you're going to be embarrassed,' " Mayock said. "But don't be embarrassed. . . . Don't back away. Admit what you did. Look people in the eye. Tell them your story, and let the tape do the talking.
"What I really think happened is that up until that story became public, he had a plus-plus-plus intangible grade. Was he going to become Ray Lewis? Could he galvanize a locker room? He had a huge intangible grade that would push his on-the-field grade higher. I think he's lost all that."
There are reasons why targeting a linebacker makes sense for the Bears:
† The new staff has stated many times that it still has players best-suited for a 4-3 scheme, but the team lacks depth at linebacker. Urlacher is an unrestricted free agent who turns 35 in May and has injury concerns. But even if the Bears re-sign him, Nick Roach and Geno Hayes also are UFAs.
† Kiper, McShay and Mayock said the 2013 class is deep with offensive linemen. As far as inside linebackers, Mayock says it's Te'o, Ogletree and Minter, then "there's a big drop-off."
† At the moment, it also looks like there will better offensive linemen available in free agency than linebackers.
At the Senior Bowl, general managers stressed a wait-and-see approach with Te'o, who struggled mightily in the national title game against Alabama. Teams will begin interviewing linebackers Friday.
Kiper said teams want to see how fast he runs the 40-yard dash because that "is going to determine whether he's an every-down linebacker." But Mayock contends his body of work is still exemplary.
"Some teams have said to me, 'The kid obviously had some stuff going on in his life, and we're not sure how well-prepared he was mentally to play in that national championship game,'' Mayock said. "The whole girlfriend thing is going to hurt a little bit. The bowl game is going to hurt. But I think the body of work is what trumps it."

How anxious was Manny Ramirez to play in his first meaningful game in more than a year? Well, this is how excited he was: the Dreadlocked One flew into Albuquerque a day early, just so he could get in a few early hacks before his 10-game minor league stint began. That was yesterday, when A's Director of Player Development Keith Lieppman—of all people—snapped this rather telling photo of Manny entering Isotopes Park in his maroon Sacramento River Cats uniform. Of course, Lip proudly reminded me that he did major in photo journalism during his college days at the University of Kansas.
I suggested to our baseball brass that it might take a little pressure off Manny and the Albuquerque Isotopes' PR director if I flew to New Mexico and organized a couple of pre-game media sessions with Ramirez in the dugout. I arrived this morning and the first media fest was staged this afternoon, comprised solely of local journalists, with the Associated Press the only national presence. One writer asked Manny why he decided to try a comeback now. After all, he had already accomplished more than most players in Major League history. Manny answered the question with a question. "Why not?" asked the man with 555 career home runs and 1,831 RBI. Essentially, his reason was simple. This is what he does, and has done for almost his entire life, dating back to his days growing up in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan, where he was named New York City Public School Player of the Year as a senior at George Washington High School. And like all the great ones—Ted Williams, Stan Musial, Rod Carew, Tony Gwynn—Manny loves nothing in life more than swinging a bat. Former teammate Scott Hatteberg tells the story of when they were Red Sox teammates at spring training one year. "Manny drives into the parking lot in his sports car, opens the door and climbs out already wearing his batting gloves. That's how much he loves hitting."
Tonight, he'll finally find himself penciled into a lineup. He's batting third for the River Cats, followed by the twin towers, Chris Carter and Michael Taylor. But preceding the game here in Albuquerque, the Isotopes are staging a celebrity softball game between a team of actors that includes Bryan Cranston of "Breaking Bad" and Lou Diamond Phillips of "La Bamba" and "Young Guns" fame, and the Wounded Warriors, a group of veterans who have lost limbs in service to their country (and have recently been featured in a segment of "Bryant Gumbel's Real Sports" on HBO). I understand that many of the veterans sat in the stands at last night's game, and they had a visitor. Manny Ramirez, who by Major League rules was required to leave the field at the end of batting practice, stayed around and came up to visit with the U.S. military men. He shared his new-found faith, the tough lessons he has learned, and how he's thankful to be given a second chance—in baseball and in life. Going full circle, from Phoenix, to Albuquerque, to Round Round, to Sacramento, and hopefully on his 40th birthday (May 30), to Minneapolis, where he hopes to make solid contact for the Oakland A's in a big league game. How sweet the sound.

Awww.. yea that sounds sweet.

I'm looking for a good everyday backpack that is durable and has quite a bit of room. Currently I'm using this backpack that I received as a gift: http://www.mastodonrocks.com/files/merch/preview/detail_backpack.jpg It's a great backpack in that it has the features I want- rucksack style loading, two small front pouches (about the size of a deck of cards) and one larger front pouch (about the size of a graphing calculator) but it's not very durable (it is just band merch, after all). It has almost no structure at all, and while I don't want something with an actual internal frame, I'd like something a bit more rigid. I use the backpack mostly for taking my laptop to class and for weekend trips- the top flap is great for throwing a sleeping bag under. asked Jul 27 '11 at 12:58 wilbus |

Eddie Bauer Adventure backpack - $80 with lots of great features that allow flexibility for laptop bag (padded), for weekend camping or camera bag. linkanswered Aug 01 '11 at 19:16 |
I highly recommend the GORUCK Echo.
It's a tough as nails, ballistic nylon bag built to military specifications but designed for city folk. There are two compartments - a large main pocket and a rear, reinforced compartment that is designed to hold a laptop or a hydration pack. There are a pair of zip pockets on the inside and a front slash pocket too. The bag is substantial without being heavy. The straps are supportive and comfortable. The zippers are strong and error free. This one is the right size for my everyday stuff, but they have larger ones too. linkanswered Aug 01 '11 at 20:39 |
These are all pretty busy backpacks added so far... I use a Black Diamond backpack and not only is it cleaner looking than all of these, it is certainly lighter and probably cheaper. http://www.backcountry.com/black-diamond-magnum-backpack-1098cu-in http://www.backcountry.com/black-diamond-hollowpoint-backpack-1220cu-in Quality is insanely high for the price... comparable to Arc'teryx or other top-end brands. The best part about the Magnum I have is that whether it's loaded with clothing and sketchbooks for a weekend trip to the beach, holding just a change of clothes while I run to work, or crammed with metalworking tools while I bike to studio, it looks great and fits like I was born with it. linkanswered Aug 01 '11 at 21:24 nhfoley |

You can buy anything from MEC and have it shipped to the U.S. that is MEC branded. That is, you can't buy anything that isn't made by MEC. They do this to prevent people from exploiting the exchange rate and lower MSRP's in canada. You just need to pay a one time membership fee which back when I signed up was quite inexpensive. The only issue with purchasing items and having them shipped to the U.S. is the shipping is a little high. But the savings by buying MEC products makes it very worthwhile. Take a look at the different textiles, bags, and the classic yellow hardman isomat.

Many good suggestions above. I am a fan of Tom Bihn products (someone suggested the Synapse above -- a good choice!) but on the trip I'm on right now, I left behind my Brain Bag (another good choice from Bihn) and am carrying a Jansport Agave 32 (http://www.amazon.com/JanSport-Agave-Outdoor-Lifestyle-Backpack/dp/B000XQ6BUE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312404292&sr=8-1), which I bought at a good price from ebags.com -- an addictive site for bag junkies like me. The Jansport looks small (I have a larger similar Jansport with more rigidity, too), but holds an impressive amount. It also looks nicely inconspicuous (doesn't scream "valuable laptop inside!") but has a padded slot that fits any smallish laptop well. I've used it to hold enough things for casual 2-3 trips, including clothes, snacks, computer, a paperback, phone, etc. Flexible to load, with mesh pockets on the side for water-bottles or other small-stuffables (even a small umbrella). My favorite feature: a small suede(ish) pocket up top, perfect for wallet and phone while going through airport security system. I bought this one as a mostly toy bag, but have been impressed way past its price. linkanswered Aug 03 '11 at 13:49 Timothy Lord |
I use Rickshaw's Commuter Backpack. Sturdy yet not as pedestrian as the Kensington Saddlebag, which is similar in design but doesn't have the same level of materials or function. I like how it has some PALS/MOLLE attachment points for extra pouches and the like but doesn't scream "imperialist contractor, shoot me first" when transiting through foreign airports. I also have some fantastic Maxpedition bags but purposely don't carry them overseas for that reason. Is it worth 3x the price of the Kensington? Not sure, as I got mine (actually one of the TED2009 swag bags) for free. But it is hella nice. :-) linkanswered Aug 04 '11 at 17:00 jameshom |

Wow, that's awesome. I think as soon as we get moved, I'll be joining her classes.
Mother to Ashley 16, Samantha 12, Dorothy 9, Madison 5 and Brian 13 months
I'm currently in Andrea's Intermediate class and have learned SO much! The tutorials are easy to follow. You get your tutorial file -- it covers more than one function/technique, then the homework...and a sheet to take notes on. I print mine out and have put all of them in a notebook. I too forget very easily. In fact -- I just had to review something we learned in the beginning class to complete something in last weeks homework for the intermediate class.
I have been using photoshop for quite a while (self-taught - ugh) and am already designing my own kits, but I would really like to take a class to learn better or new techniques. Should I start with the beginner class or would I just be learning what I already know? Would the intermediate class be overwhelming without it? Those who have taken the classes, what do you think?
You may want to email Andrea Gold here (Goldscraps) on the board and she can help you determine which class would be the most beneficial for you.
PS is so totally addicting!
I agree- ask Andrea - you can go to her Intermediate class HERE and there is a link where you can click on "ask a question" to ask her her opinion. She will soon tell you where to start. I sailed thru the beginners class as I had taught myself PS Elements, and although fundamentally the two are similar, I learnt many tips and quick ways of doing things - so very glad I started at the beginning! I'm about to start her new class next month for CS3 tips and extra bits- can't wait!
Great post and info in regards to the classes and kits! Thanks for sharing!

The online picture of this dress does not do it justice! I purchased the dress in store and fell in love at first sight. The white bandage material is made very well and the black leather criss cross straps make this dress really sexy. The color combination, black & white, always look good together so I knew this dress would be perfect. I am so happy I got to see in person first (before seeing it online)! Its really easy to pair this dress with black accessories! Highly recommend.

Love the dress!
This dress is very sexy and flattering. The material is of good quality. You can dress it up or down depending on your taste.

nice quality
Nice quality, the material is thick, stripes are sexy. I found this dress to be a bit on the smaller side than the rest of the extra small dresses I have bought from Bebe though.

Beautiful dress!
I think this is the first review I've ever written. I JUST bought this dress today for a wedding this weekend and I'm so excited to wear it. It hugs in all the right places and the leatherette strapping makes the dress sexy and also slimming at the same time! For reference: I'm 5'3", 113 pounds and I got an XS!

I adore Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the 2005 version. I can't find the clip online, but some of you probably know the scene when the children first come to the factory when you can hear Willy Wonka's voice (Johnny Depp) saying "Please enter.", "Close the gates." The voiceover is fantastic. So, you know, when Renel retires he could take over? We couldn't pay him as much as Tim Burton, maybe, but we could give him some nice homemade brownies. Mmmmm… homemade brownies… I volunteer to make them.
Picture of brownies is my own, not a stock photo. Photo of Willy Wonka is not mine. ::Cue "duhs"::
More importantly, perhaps… the Rangers clinched in Oakland on Saturday, which made me very happy. I didn't end up going to any of the game but 2011 is filled with promise. I will see them. So I know CJ Wilson doesn't drink and he said he was going to wear swim goggles and not drink any of it and Josh Hamilton, a recovering alcoholic, skipped the party altogether. In this situation, why not create a new idea so that you can include all your players?
This photo is obviously taken by me, with my exclusive pass to the Yankees clubhouse. Once again, cue the duhs.
I honestly hate the champagne parties at all. They are so contrived and commercialized at this point, that I don't really think they're fun or exciting. The locker rooms are all taped off for easy clean-up and the cameras are all set up. I am still hoping for a team to come out and show their unique player and coach personalities and use orange juice and make a real mess. Why orange juice? It's healthy, not tremendously sticky and, I mean, no one's in rehab for orange juice addiction. It's also unexpected. The Rangers have battled bankruptcy, have a low payroll, young GM… why not embrace that and show respect and appreciation for your players who don't drink alcohol and use orange juice?
Um, no. Not taken by me. I have better ways to waste my time than photographing orange juice bottles.
Since the Rangers didn't do it, the Giants could. Or do you think the league would make them die half the juice black?

Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West Upgrade, Part 1
Apr 9, 2013 11:21 AM, With Bennett Liles
Editor's note: For your convenience, this transcription of the podcast includes timestamps. If you are listening to the podcast and reading its accompanying transcription, you can use the timestamps to jump to any part of the audio podcast by simply dragging the slider on the podcast to the time indicated in the transcription.
Built in the 30's and it still looks like the future today, Taliesin West, the winter home of Frank Lloyd Wright, got a complete AV makeover in its famous Cabaret home theater and HomeTech AV Solutions did the job. Jim Beaumont is here to tell us how it came together with an Elan g! control system, coming up right up on the SVC Podcast.
Jim Beaumont, thanks for being with us on the SVC Podcast from HomeTech AV Solutions and this is a very interesting project. I don't think I've talked about one this far off the beaten path before though. Taliesin West, the one-time home of architect Frank Lloyd Wright and now the gathering place for architectural students. HomeTech AV Solutions was brought in to make some big changes there. Tell me about HomeTech AV Solutions. What's been going on there?
Well, we're a U.S. division of a company that actually started out in Europe, called HomeTech Europe. We started in Seattle originally and then did a lot of work in London and other areas in Europe, and then wound up coming back over to the states mostly through referrals of existing clients and architects and partners. We really seek out installations. We don't just go after, you know, the standard, typical home that has a cinema and multimedia room. We want to do something that's out of the ordinary, particularly focusing on historic properties, which is what we've specialized in in the London market.
Well certainly not taking the path of least resistance working on historical sites where you're not always free to do whatever might make a quick and easy AV setup. What is Taliesin West exactly and how did the Energizing Taliesin West Project come about?
So Taliesin West was the winter home of Frank Lloyd Wright. He bought the property in the late 30's and then up until his death in 1957 he just was continually building. He used it basically as an experimental test bed for different building techniques and technologies and he was very much into low-impact building, what we would now call green building. Back in the day he was all about whatever you build should become part of the environment and it should not just be this scar on the earth. One of his most famous projects, Fallingwater, back in Pennsylvania, most people, that's what they recognize him for. That was the same thing. That house just became part of that hillside and he allowed the river to flow through it. All of that idea and that design and building stuff vetted out in both his houses in Wisconsin and Arizona. He would try new things and see how it worked. It's on the National Historic Register, and so it's really particularly hard to do anything there that wasn't original to the property. [Timestamp: 3:02]
A 1930's vintage site meets modern AV. Sometimes it's a shotgun marriage. HomeTech AV didn't go it alone on this one. It was a big team effort, so who else was working on this project?
The Energizing Taliesin West Project brought about the idea of reducing the energy impact at the facility there, hopefully to come to a green-neutral situation where they're not using any more power than they're producing. The first consultant on board was Big Green Zero, and they specialize in energy consulting and reducing your energy usage. They brought in a company by the name of First Solar, who installed the largest private solar botanic generating plant in the United States. It's huge and it sits down—you can't see it from the property—that was part of it, that they couldn't disturb the original feel of the house—so it sits down on the entryway as you come up. That right now is producing 40 percent of the previous power usage at Taliesin West. Now what they needed to do, then, was get the rest of those savings through energy-efficient fixtures; controlling lighting, controlling usage throughout the campus. So that's where we were brought in along with a lighting design firm by the name of Studio Lux, who is working on re-lamping the entire campus down from incandescent lamps and halogen lamps to LED technology. That, combined with a Lutron dimming system, and then the overlay of the Elan control system, will hopefully help them manage their power consumption down to that point where they're going to be in the range of between zero and 10 percent of the energy they used to use after this is done. [Timestamp: 4:37]
A very ambitious project.

How to Get an NYC Tech Job, From the People Who Are Actually Hiring
Thanks to the anything-goes nature of startup culture, all the old rules of job searching have gone out the window. It can feel like the advice your parents and professors gave you — wear a suit! bring five copies of your résumé! — is stuffy and outdated in an era when CEOs sport flip-flops and jeans.
So to nail down the dos and don'ts of securing a startup job once and for all, we headed to yesterday's Uncubed job fair. Uncubed isn't just any job fair, mind you — many of the coolest startups in town, including Seamless, BuzzFeed and Mashable — attend, looking to hire everything from programmers to marketers to salespeople. And they hand out beer and free macarons. Read More

April 1st and I'm Shocked - Emily Dickinson in the News today
I am completely shocked to learn today in an article from Publisher's Weekly that it has been determined that Emily Dickinson did not write any (ANY!) of her poems, but instead would switch places with their live-in cook who would pay her for her doing the work in the kitchen with short small poems.
Emily started to submit these poems in hope of making a name for herself, but only had about 9 published until her death. Apparently, Emily was a much better cook than a poet, so she came up with this arranged to satisfy her urge to a "writer."
I'm just amazed at how this news is going to change the literary community.
The article states--
The cook, Belle Eve Anathin, will now finally get credit for all the poems she wrote for Miss Dickinson. As of April 1st, all poems associated with Emily Dickinson will now be credited to Miss Anathin.
"There will be a huge number of presses that will have to make a lot changes immediately," explained Mary Jokersty. "We can't even estimate the number of collected works and anthologies that will have to be pulled from the shelves to make room for this incredible discovery."
The news completely took me by surprise and I am now thinking I may have to change my book title to Letters from the Belle Eve Anathin Room.
I am really not sure what to do.

Kate Middleton Bundles Up In Blush For Swiss Wedding
If that nasty bout of hyperemesis gravidarum hadn't revealed Kate Middleton's pregnancy, it's very possible we still wouldn't know the Duchess is expecting. Despite being several months along, she looks as svelte as always—perhaps thanks to her shrewd wardrobe choices.
This weekend, for instance, K Mid attended a wedding in the Swiss Alps wearing a MaxMara Studio leopard print dress under one of her favorite pre-baby-bump coats (which, according to Grazia.com, she was spotted in last November) that completely camouflaged whatever bulge she might have. Also, her matching chocolate brown pillbox hat, clutch, suede pumps and fur stole drew eyes away from her middle. Baby on board or not, it's a flattering look for any woman—and worth trying for yourself. Click through the slideshow below to shop similar options now.

Fields at Chamberlain Farm Produce tested positive for salmonella — and showed signs of wildlife activity — likely causing the initial contamination of cantaloupe linked to a deadly outbreak in 2012, according to federal officials.
The company's failure to use basic food safety practices at an outdoor packing shed then likely caused cross contamination and led to further pathogen growth, according to a Food and Drug Administration environmental assessment released March 1.
Owner Tim Chamberlain has consistently denied the operation was the source of the contamination, including a statement in January from his attorney, Gary Zhao.
Zhao did not immediately respond to a request for comment on March 4.
Chamberlain said in the January statement that he had an independent microbiologist investigate the situation. He has said he will not grow cantaloupe for the 2013 season.
Courtesy Indiana State Department of HealthAn inspector from the Indiana State Health Department took this photo of the Chamberlain Farm Produce Inc. cantaloupe packing line in August 2012. The inspector noted porous wood surfaces and carpet-coverings as prime breeding grounds for salmonella and other deadly pathogens.Chamberlain contends the salmonella responsible for the 2012 outbreak "was present on surrounding lands and ... the source of the bacterial contamination was not (his) packing facilities, equipment or operations."
In the March 1 report — http://tinyurl.com/FDA-Chamberlain — FDA investigators confirmed that multiple types of salmonella and other pathogens were found in Chamberlain's fields, packing shed and water.
The FDA has not revealed what distributors and retailers received cantaloupe from the Owensville, Ind., farm in July and August 2012. However, the March 1 report states "29 consignees in eight states" received 222,000 cantaloupes from Chamberlain Farm.
The salmonella outbreak linked to the company's cantaloupe killed three people in Kentucky and sickened 261 people in 24 states, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.
Similar problems
Many of the problems cited at Chamberlain Farm echoed bad practices the FDA reported in an investigation of Jensen Farms, Holly, Colo. That farm's cantaloupes were linked to a 28-state listeria outbreak in 2011 that sickened 147 and killed 33.
Both the Jensen and Chamberlain packing sheds were outdoors and had equipment that could not be properly cleaned, according to the FDA. Equipment at both sheds had buildups of "filth" the FDA reported. The floors of both sheds allowed water to pool, providing a breeding ground for pathogens.
Both operations also failed to properly pre-cool cantaloupe, according to the FDA. The Chamberlain packing shed had evidence of birds roosting above packing equipment and bird droppings throughout the shed, the FDA reported.

This is the calm before you storm the mountain, and you've got a decision to make. What's the best goggle for you? Before you read about all the performance of Oakley Elevate™, wrap your head around one key aspect: comfort. This snow goggle is optimized for small to medium size faces, and we poured every technology we could into the fit. That's why both male and female pros of winter sports are calling it their own.
The right fit isn't just about comfort. It's about the safety of being free of distraction, and that's the difference between throwing down a great run and being thrown down a great run. Elevate conforms to your face with a flexible O Matter® chassis and strap "outriggers" that balance pressure. You don't have to over-tighten it like ordinary goggles. We lined the contact surface with triple-layer polar fleece foam that wicks away moisture, and we added some brilliance to the architecture: an internal skeletal support system that minimizes nasal pressure and balances contact forces along critical zones. Translation: You'll have all the airflow you need to feed your lungs, plus comfort that makes you wonder why you ever wasted a single snow day on ordinary goggles.
Elevate utilizes a dual vented lens to fight fog, and we added premium F3 anti-fog technology. The peripheral view is wide and crisp, and the pure Plutonite® lens stops every single ray of UV that bombards the highlands. That includes UVA, UVB and UVC, as well as harmful blue light up to 400nm. Choose an optional Iridium® lens coating to balance light transmission and make the most of your session.

When you start going out with someone, even if you started out as friends, there are lots of new things to learn about the other person.
This can be worrying and you might feel a bit odd or have emotions that you haven't had before.
Things you might worry about:
It's natural to worry about some or all of the above things. If you are really worried about your relationship you could talk to your boyfriend or girlfriend about how you feel.
If you feel like you can't talk to them, you can chat with us about any problems you might have. Call ChildLine free on 0800 1111 or chat to us online in confidence.
If you ever feel scared, frightened or humiliated by your boyfriend or girlfriend, this could be relationship abuse. Nobody should make you feel like this. Get help with relationship abuse
Having sex is a big decision and there are lots of things to think about if you are considering doing it. You can read more about sex on our explore page. You can also speak to other young people on the sex and sexual health message board.
Having sex is a big decision. If you don't feel comfortable or ready to have sex with someone, then you shouldn't feel like you have to do it. Your boyfriend or girlfriend should care about you enough not to pressure you or make you do something you're not happy about. Remember that the age of consent in the UK is 16 years old.
There can be a lot of pressure from other people to have sex and it might seem like everyone else is doing it or talking about it. This shouldn't be the reason that you start having sex – you should do it because you want to and you are over 16 years old. If you need to talk about sex, you can talk to ChildLine any time.
It's never easy breaking up with someone but there are ways to make it easier. If you are unhappy about something in your relationship, or don't feel the same way about your boyfriend or girlfriend any more, then you might want to end the relationship. Think about how you would feel if it was the other way round and try and make it as painless as possible.
- Try and tell your boyfriend/girlfriend face to face in a place that is private and quiet, or at least not full of people you both know. - Don't break up with them by text, email or letter as this will be really hurtful.- Tell your boyfriend/girlfriend why you want to end the relationship. - If you don't want to be friends, don't promise that you will be as it will hurt them more if you lie.
Splitting up with someone is never easy - especially if it wasn't your decision. It can be really upsetting if you are the one who has been broken up with and it takes time to get over it.
It can be helpful to talk about how you feel to a friend or even a parent. If you feel that you can't talk to anyone, you can contact a ChildLine counsellor free on 0800 1111 to chat about how you feel. You can also visit the relationships message board and get help and support from other young people who might be in the same situation as you.
Yes. You can speak to a ChildLine counsellor about anything that is on your mind and we will not tell anyone else about what you've said. Find out more about ChildLine's confidentiality promise
