Work detailsTeam of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin (Author)
Compact | Rate recommendations
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. At 732 pages (not including acknowledgements and notes), and very small print, this book appears daunting. However, Goodwin has the remarkable ability to turn dry history into a fascinating read. When Lincoln was elected President, he appointed his rivals (both in his law practice and in political campaigns) to his Cabinet. This meant his Cabinet was comprised of both conservatives and radicals with vastly differing opinions on how to run the country. Lincoln proved to be a genius both in his ability to work out compromises within his Cabinet as well as in reading the public mind and know when when and how to introduce controversial issues to the country. I very highly recommend reading this book. A very "heavy" read indeed. The book provides a very good look into the lives of Lincoln and some of his closest associates. I really learned a lot about politics in the 1850 and 1860s. However, at over 900 pages (with relatively small print) this book is quite a load to carry around! By far one of the best history books I have read. The author has gone into so much detail in every aspect of Lincoln's life - I am not quite sure what could have been left out. The thorough inclusion of each member of Lincoln's cabinet officer adds so much depth to this work. I completely enjoyed the recent movie based on this book and found it very interesting that the book only spent one chapter covering what the movie delt with. This this volume about Lincoln's life, his presidency, and the complex group of people who made up his cabinet has received a lot of praise. And I can understand why. It's clearly written; it focuses on the human aspects of things rather than just on the dry whats, wheres, and whens; and it's full of lots and lots of detail. If you have a particular interest in Lincoln or the American Civil War, this is probably a book you want to read. I confess, though, that it might have had a little too much detail for me, to the point where I got bogged down a bit in the middle and sometimes had trouble keeping the large cast of characters straight. The truth is, I don't have a burning personal interest in this particular period of history. I picked this book up partly because I like good non-fiction and was attracted by the glowing recommendations I'd seen for it, and partly because I feel as if I should perhaps read books like this as a way of offsetting the damage done by badly taught high school American History classes. And I do feel like I've accomplished some of that in reading this. If nothing else, I now feel like I have a much better sense of Lincoln -- not just the myth of Lincoln, but the man. Although maybe, in this case, the man and the myth actually aren't all that far apart. I know that I came away from the book feeling a tremendous liking and admiration for Lincoln, to the extent that I found myself positively dreading the end of the book, knowing what was in store for him and desperately not wanting it to happen. Rating: Despite the fact that I found it such slow going, I'm going to give this one a 4/5, as I can't help but feel that any problems I had with it were my own, and in the end I'm very glad I read it. This book so very important, and good reading. Every politician with aspirations beyond mere common political misbehavior should read this book.
"We needed the strongest men of the party in the cabinet," Lincoln replied. "These were the very strongest men. Then I had no right to deprive the country of their services." They were indeed strong men, Goodwin notes. "But in the end, it was the prairie lawyer from Springfield who would emerge as the strongest of them all." "But this immense, finely boned book is no dull administrative or bureaucratic history; rather, it is a story of personalities -- a messianic drama, if you will -- in which Lincoln must increase and the others must decrease."
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (25)Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0743270754, Paperback)The life and times of Abraham Lincoln have been analyzed and dissected in countless books. Do we need another Lincoln biography? In Team of Rivals, esteemed historian Doris Kearns Goodwin proves that we do. Though she can't help but cover some familiar territory, her perspective is focused enough to offer fresh insights into Lincoln's leadership style and his deep understanding of human behavior and motivation. Goodwin makes the case for Lincoln's political genius by examining his relationships with three men he selected for his cabinet, all of whom were opponents for the Republican nomination in 1860: William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, and Edward Bates. These men, all accomplished, nationally known, and presidential, originally disdained Lincoln for his backwoods upbringing and lack of experience, and were shocked and humiliated at losing to this relatively obscure Illinois lawyer. Yet Lincoln not only convinced them to join his administration--Seward as secretary of state, Chase as secretary of the treasury, and Bates as attorney general--he ultimately gained their admiration and respect as well. How he soothed egos, turned rivals into allies, and dealt with many challenges to his leadership, all for the sake of the greater good, is largely what Goodwin's fine book is about. Had he not possessed the wisdom and confidence to select and work with the best people, she argues, he could not have led the nation through one of its darkest periods.Ten years in the making, this engaging work reveals why "Lincoln's road to success was longer, more tortuous, and far less likely" than the other men, and why, when opportunity beckoned, Lincoln was "the best prepared to answer the call." This multiple biography further provides valuable background and insights into the contributions and talents of Seward, Chase, and Bates. Lincoln may have been "the indispensable ingredient of the Civil War," but these three men were invaluable to Lincoln and they played key roles in keeping the nation intact. --Shawn Carkonen The Team of Rivals Team of Rivals doesn't just tell the story of Abraham Lincoln. It is a multiple biography of the entire team of personal and political competitors that he put together to lead the country through its greatest crisis. Here, Doris Kearns Goodwin profiles five of the key players in her book, four of whom contended for the 1860 Republican presidential nomination and all of whom later worked together in Lincoln's cabinet. 1. Edwin M. Stanton 2. Salmon P. Chase 3. Abraham Lincoln 4. William H. Seward 5. Edward Bates The Essential Doris Kearns Goodwin More New Reading on the Civil War (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:47:38 -0400) This multiple biography is centered on Lincoln's mastery of men and how it shaped the most significant presidency in the nation's history. Historian Goodwin illuminates Lincoln's political genius, as the one-term congressman rises from obscurity to prevail over three gifted rivals to become president. When Lincoln emerged as the victor at the Republican National Convention, his rivals were dismayed. Throughout the turbulent 1850s, each had energetically sought the presidency as the conflict over slavery led inexorably to civil war. That Lincoln succeeded, Goodwin demonstrates, was because of his extraordinary ability to put himself in the place of other men, to experience what they were feeling, to understand their motives and desires. It was this that enabled Lincoln to bring his disgruntled opponents together, create the most unusual cabinet in history, and marshal their talents to the task of preserving the Union.… (more) (summary from another edition) |

Vaughan won't be rushed
05 Sep 2008 - 13:01:55
Everton manager David Moyes has promised not to push James Vaughan too hard as the young striker tries to enjoy a long injury-free run in the first team.
The 20-year-old striker has endured a succession of injury problems since making his Premier League debut in April 2005.
Vaughan has already featured in this season's clashes against West Brom and Portsmouth, but Moyes will not rush the forward.
The former Preston North End manager said: "He could be very exciting for us but my concern is that I've put in him too early because I've had very little options.
"The boy had to play 30 minutes at West Brom first up and I nearly had to take him off with ten minutes to go because he had nothing left.
"He's had no football but he made a difference and it's great for him to come back and show us what we've been missing.
"I don't know whether I could ask him to hang fire. His enthusiasm is his game although there are other parts that he needs to improve.
"Technically, we want to do a lot of work with him but his injuries have stopped us doing that. He's missed a lot of his young development because of that. But what he's got in abundance is enthusiasm."

How much manual labor do you do?
Why does that matter? I don't run marathons for the labor involved.
When I worked in fast food and manufacturing, I spent more of my spare time reading, gaming, and writing software. I still do those things in my spare time, but now, as a desk jockey, I do a lot more woodworking, cooking, and biking. I trained for a week long bike ride across Iowa. Best shape I've been in in years because of it. As I spoke with my fellow riders among the corn fields, I found a lot of professional workers. I didn't find any carpenters or plumbers or electricians.
Among the people I run with are contractors, police officers, EMTs, etc. They run the whole gamut of professions from those who do a lot of manual work to those who do very little.
I assume that one of the reasons you find running to be rewarding is because of the amount of work it takes to successfully prepare for a marathon. Running a marathon in anything under 5 hours is a major achievement. We do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard. Some guy that builds houses for a living? He doesn't need any more hard work.
Well I know of two guys who did run marathons who built houses for a living. One of them has since sold his business but that's what he did. It may be true that those of perform manual labor are not as likely to run but they are there.

Similarly, people who don't find themselves doing enough real work do things like running marathons.
As a marathoner, I resent your implication that I don't do enough real work. Training for and running a marathon is my hobby. I train with doctors, lawyers, housewives, entrepreneurs, students, wait-staff, etc. It takes a lot of time and is like getting a second job but it's not because we spend all day doing nothing. Some people choose to watch TV in their spare time; some people choose to play video games. You may not choose a marathon over your current hobbies but that is your choice; don't denigrate those who simply choose differently.
Comment: Re:Pilot Proof Airbus? (Score 1) 132
You have a strange definition of stop.
Again I refer you to the transcript. From the initial stall warning at 2 hr 10 min, there are stall warnings in every minute. Then the plane crashed.
I do not know where you get the impression that we disagree about this. Of course they stalled because their speed was too low and the AoA was too high.
Your conclusions have been wrong about Air France 447 because you have been wrong about the facts. The conclusions of the BEA specifically contribute the accident to the pilots and a number of other factors including the pitot tube design. However, the failure of the pitot tubes should not have led to a crash by themselves. You seem to want blame everything else except what is clear in the report. The computer did not "panic". The stall warning did correctly identify the problem that occurred. The pilots under a number of alarms did not establish initial control. There was a communications breakdown between the pilots. The pilots ignored the stall warning until too late.
Comment: Re:Pilot Proof Airbus? (Score 1) 132
This is a factual bit we disagree about.
You can read in the transcript. The stall warnings never stopped. They didn't alarm all the time but they didn't stop. The plane eventually stalled because the pilots did not correct the problem. I refer you to the final report of the accident not the opinion of a pilot's union.
The aeroplane went into a sustained stall, signalled by the stall warning and strong buffet. Despite these persistent symptoms, the crew never understood that they were stalling and consequently never applied a recovery manoeuvre. The combination of the ergonomics of the warning design, the conditions in which airline pilots are trained and exposed to stalls during their professional training and the process of recurrent training does not generate the expected behaviour in any acceptable reliableway.
That is unless you want to argue with conclusions of the official report.
Do you really think you need to tell me what a stall is?
When you posted something factually incorrect about what a stall is, I expect you to admit that you posted factually incorrect information. I'm not a professional pilot but I know enough about aviation to know what a stall is. Stalling due to high speeds is unlikely especially when that was not the case in Air France 447. There were climbing; their air speed was not too high. They were stalling because their air speed was too low and the AoA was too high; they just didn't believe the warnings.
Yes, the stall happened because airspeed was too low. However, the stall warnings did the worst thing possible: turn off when airspeed is low and turn on when airspeed increases.
There were a number of contributing factors to this accident, but you seem desperate to dismiss that the fact that the pilots made errors that led to the crash and blame everything else. The computer did not "panic"; it did exactly what it was supposed to do. The stall warnings while intermittent did alert the pilots to the exact situation that caused the plane to crash. This was a recoverable situation, and the pilots did not apply the proper procedures: Establish initial control then deal with the situation. Instead the crew panicked not the computer.
More generally, the double failure of the planned procedural responses shows the limits of the current safety model. When crew action is expected, it is always supposed that they will be capable of initial control of the flight path and of a rapid diagnosis that will allow them to identify the correct entry in the dictionary of procedures.

I am not sure why you think the part you copied from the transcript contradicts what I said.
No you said that the stall warning stopped when the pilot pulled up (read above). That is not correct. The stall warnings happened continuously throughout the time until the condition was corrected. It was never corrected.
The stall warnings sounded multiple times, whenever airspeed got high enough (i.e. the pilot was doing the right thing) to make the system believe the readings
No that is also incorrect. Stall warnings are when there is not enough lift. Most of the time (and in this accident), this is when the airspeed is too low or the angle of attack is too high. Stalling at high speeds is possible but not in this case especially since the pilot was climbing not diving.
The pitot tubes were working correctly for the majority of the accident, precisely because there was no ice on them for the majority of the accident.
The pitot tubes were to be replaced per schedule because they had a tendency to ice up during flights. I point you to the wiki article on the flight as multiple incidents led to the replacement advisory.
Yet the computer system stuck in alternate law, encouraging the pilot to do the entirely wrong thing.
The computer did not get "stuck" in alternate law. The computer with conflicting airspeed readings goes to alternate law by design. This is basic flight (and computer system) protocols. As for "encouraging the pilot to do the entirely wrong thing", I don't know where you get this idea: The computer did not goad the pilots into climbing nor told them what to do. The computer realized it could not fly the plane according to its program and switched to alternate law giving the pilots full control of the aircraft. It is up to the pilots to fly manually (which they are supposed to be trained to do).
The problem is the pilots did not follow training or procedures. It may be an increasing problem as more pilots rely too much on autopilot. This has been identified as a trend in all airlines as more airlines are created with more flights and more planes. The US is also subject to this problem; however, the US has a larger pool of ex-military pilots who were trained to fly manually.

Read the cockpit transcript. The stall warnings stopped whenever the crew member pulled the stick back and made the stall worse. (They stopped because the computer was programmed to treat the ridiculously low airspeed indications as instrument failures and disregard them).
I have. That's not what I read in the transcript.
2 h 10 min 03: Cavalry charge (autopilot disconnection warning)
2 h 10 min 10,4: SV: stall
. .
2 h 10 min 13,0: SV stall
. .
2 h 10 min 41,6: Weâ(TM)re in... yeah weâ(TM)re in climb
2 h 10 min 51,4: SV Stall
(for the next minute until 2 h 14 min 01,7 there are stall warnings)
It has 2 pitot tubes and 1 failed.
This is incorrect:
On 12 August 2009, Airbus issued three Mandatory Service Bulletins, requiring that all A330 and A340 aircraft be fitted with two Goodrich 0851HL pitot tubes and one Thales model C16195BA pitot (or alternatively three of the Goodrich pitots)
Apart from that the aircraft was in perfect condition. The failing pitot tube recovered during the fall, so all equipment worked correctly.
The pitot tubes failed because of icing. There would be no ice when they were recovered so "working correctly" isn't exactly true as the conditions of the accident were not in place when they were recovered.
The autopilot shut off and the computer put the plane into alternate law, where pilots are allowed to do stupid things like stall the plane. The computer had one perfectly working airspeed indicator to rely on, but instead it panicked.
Do you know what happens when one of the pitot tubes fails in these conditions? It give erratic readings. So the autopilot cannot determine which one of the 3 readings is correct. It's not "panicking" if it is meant to do that.

Babe! Welcome to the second week of the Resolution Files! Have you been good? I've been trying, and really, that's anything anyone can ask for, right? Without further ado….
I totally get excited about healthy meals that are, well, exciting! For me that means adding depth of flavor to already star-struck veggies. We're eating so many green beans for this meal, that we don't need carbs! Wanna know why? We've got Mango Habanero Chicken Sausage up in hurrrrr! I wanted to keep the recipes in this series light, but that still appeal to my carnivorous husband. Let's face it, we both crave the meats and the carbs, but when you have a dish like this, really you don't miss it. I'm super serious!

A paper published today in Biology of Reproduction's Papers-in-Press describes the effects of brief prenatal exposure to plant estrogens on the mouse oviduct, modeling the effects of soy-based baby formula on human infants.
Girls who start puberty very early are more likely to have psychological problems and be at risk of sexual abuse and early pregnancy.
Hormones shape our bodies, make us fertile, excite our most basic urges, and as scientists have known for years, they govern the behaviors that separate men from women. But how?
Estrogen has a wide range of effects on the body and brain. The link between estrogen and emotion was first investigated over a century ago and showed that estrogen can improve mood.
Women who use bust-enhancing dietary supplements containing the mycoestrogen zearalenone (ZEN), a naturally occurring toxin that widely contaminates agricultural products, could be increasing their risk of breast cancer.
Hormone researchers at the University of Houston (UH) have their sights set on providing long-term treatment options for diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases by better understanding estradiol, the most potent naturally occurring estrogen.
University of Alberta researchers have identified a key regulator that controls the speed of development in the fruit fly.
The Breast Cancer Fund announced on Wednesday that research indicates bisphenol A (BPA) has been found in canned soups marketed to children.

THE WEEKLY CHART of AMZN tells all. The uptrend is clearly over and lower this equity goes as Institutional ownership falls and they try to dump on to retail investors. However, not enough buyers can line up to absorb all these shares. Why are they letting go... most are probably overweight the stock. Overweight works when the stock is working. However, now we can see FCF is falling and the balance sheet is less than healthy. This is a very risky stock to hold.
I predict a move to the $280 mark and then a small bounce to the $300 to $305 range. This should be a slow grind higher into options expiry week... AUG 15 ... Then the downside continues. Ultimately the price will move lower in the coming weeks. Maybe it just tanks now. But, be careful. Never underestimate the power of OPTIONS writers moving the stock to a more favourable price.
Im trading AMZN puts.
Good luck trading.

FUN is a great example of institutions manipulation then bailing. They promoted this stock back in MAY. look at the WEEKLY chart of FUN early June. The stock spent one week above the $53 resistance. As always, those pumping the stock refrain from telling the whole story. It is a fine line. However, it is obvious to me some big players wanted out of this one as the $53 and above pop had decent weekly volume. Every buyer needs a seller and I believe those pumping the stock knew the inherent liquidity issues this company faces.
FUN is paying a high price for debt due to the high risk of lending to them. They just re=financed some debt. Write a negative article about this company teetering on the brink of disaster and I'm sure you would get a lot of grief. Why? The truth hurts. Those who own shares never want to hear that the company they own sucks. Especially if they are collecting a yield like that in FUN. FUN is paying out 5.4% dividend! Something that looks like they can't afford.
Take a look at the FUN balance sheet, never mentioned in the pumped notes. They are struggling to keep current. Cash flow is tight. They also just completed a refinancing to pay off (see SEC filings) some higher priced debt due sooner.
"$450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2024
This was released JUN2 when the stock popped. Somehow this was awesome news that they don't have the cash flow to pay debt so they must kick the can down the road. SEC FILING
intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to redeem all of its 9.125% senior unsecured notes due 2018. SEC FILING
This was released May29 ... so yes it is good news that FUN was able to pay off 9% notes with the proceeds of 5.375% notes.
However, you have to question the safety of a 5.4% dividend when the company is paying out the same on its debt and was paying 9% prior. Does not seem like a good long term plan to me. Especially after you consider the health of the balance sheet ... any tiny blip in revenues is going to send the company stock spiraling lower in my opinion. Especially when they are forced to cut the dividend.
Im almost certain it is a good idea to review the financials of any company that gets pumped and quickly reverses... as with this one, something big is likely going to happen on the downside.
IM in OCTOBER, FUN $45 PUTS ... good luck trading
Disclosure: The author is short FUN.
Additional disclosure: This is my opinion on a stock and not considered investment advice. This is simply my belief in the direction and the position I have taken. Do your own research before investing long or short an equity.

Managing email with Evolution
Email Wizardry
We show you how to manage your email more efficiently with the lightweight Evolution email client.
Although Evolution [1] may look like a lightweight email client, it's packed with features that can help you manage email messages in the most efficient manner. This article will help you to master Evolution's basics.
Configuring Evolution
When you launch Evolution for the first time, the Evolution Account Assistant conveniently guides you through the process of configuring basic settings (Figure 1). The first step offers to restore existing personal data, settings, and so on from a backup file. This process can be useful when you are migrating from another Evolution installation, but if it's your first time using the application, you can safely skip this step by pressing Continue.
You are then prompted to configure an identity. At the very least, you need to specify your name and email address. If you happen to use Gmail as your preferred email service, the wizard automatically configures incoming and outgoing server settings for you. Otherwise, you need to provide the required information manually. Before you proceed, make sure you have the required information handy.

Five best practices for a successful PTV initiative.
You can't turn on a television these days without finding at least a couple reality shows. Those programs are making an impact in mobile, as well. Participation TV (PTV) is one of the hottest and fastest growing areas of mobile marketing.
According to the Mobile Marketing Association's (MMA's) "Annual Attitude and Usage Study,", released earlier this year, participation in voting campaigns increased from 8 percent in 2005 to 29 percent in 2006. Voting campaigns and initiatives receive, by far, the highest amount of consumer interaction of any mobile marketing form. The trend is set to continue.
According to Telephia, Americans sent nearly 35 million text messages in Q1 2007, generating roughly $35 million in revenue. One reason is many PTV initiatives offer incentives or prizes that encourage engagement; the shows also enable viewers to interact with their favorite content, an obvious draw. Couple those with programs that teach consumers how to interact and engage with their devices. The shows, in effect, walk consumers through the steps required to participate in a voting campaign and interact with their devices.
Companies like CBS, Endemol, NBC, and Telescope Inc. are working together to launch PTV initiatives that put consumers in the driver's seat. All campaigns are expected to adhere to the MMA's "Consumer Best Practices Guidelines," which defines the base set of rules for PTV.
A few key guidelines for interactive television:
A premium charge call to action integrated with programming may be a single opt-in when the call to action contains the following conditions:
The industry has worked together to ensure the guidelines reflect industry demands, support sustainable growth, and protect the consumer experience as well as the industry. The guidelines are evaluated every six months to ensure they address the needs of both the industry and consumers. The MMA also recently launched a PTV committee, comprising representatives from across the ecosystem, which will work to ensure best practices are enforced and the industry grows in a responsible and effective manner, ultimately protecting all in the value chain.
What makes a successful PTV initiative? As with all mobile marketing campaigns, integrating the mobile call to action within a cross-media marketing initiative is key. In PTV, the mobile call to action can be integrated into television, print, the Internet and so on, to drive consumer participation in the program. Since the early days of "American Idol," a number of best practices have been gleaned, including:
As PTV grows and the number of shows leveraging an interactive element increases, it's imperative all players be proactive about adhering to guidelines and best practices to protect the industry's continued viability.
As the number of consumers interested in engaging with their favorite programs and content increases, media companies will continue to experiment to provide more to their viewers. Voting, sweepstakes, polling, games, and trivia are just some of the tactics that have been deployed to connect programs to viewers. PTV is one of the many ways the mobile channel continues to be leveraged to engage consumers and drive overall brand awareness...and revenue!

Close-Up Talk Radio spotlights Dayton Commercial Realty's Richard Moody
in Real Estate
Dayton, OH – The city of Dayton boasts the country's least expensive commercial real estate. Whether someone wants to buy or lease commercial real estate, the market is currently the best it's been since the Great Recession.
Moody-Woodley Management has been developing real estate in Dayton and its surroundings communities since 1949. Dayton Commercial Realty, a subsidiary of Moody-Woodley Management, is a full-service commercial real estate brokerage firm representing thousands of investors, developers, owners, tenants in their acquisition or abdication of commercial real estate. Led by its president Richard Moody, Dayton Commercial Realty has asserted itself among the city's leading commercial real estate firms.
"Creativity is our best asset," says Moody. "There are so many opportunities in commercial real estate when you think how other people don't and do things other companies won't. When we say full-service, we truly mean it."
Where other brokers specialize in either office, retail or industrial space, Dayton Commercial Realty enjoys a considerable advantage in its market having built, owned and managed all three types.
"In commercial real estate, owners and realtors are not necessarily best friends," says Moody. "We're very fortunate in that building owners think of me an owner first and a realtor second. It's easy for me to represent building owners because I am one myself."
In keeping with the firm's commitment to creative thinking, Dayton Commercial Realty offers clients the option to auction their property rather than allow it to linger on the market indefinitely.
"The ability to combine auctioneering with brokerage is a completely new concept," says Moody. "As the broker, I am both and nobody else in Ohio can claim to be."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Parker asked.The other ESPN panelists seemed uncomfortable, asking what that meant."He's black, he kind of does his thing, but he's not really down with the cause. He's not one of us," Parker said. "He's kind of black, but he's not really the kind of guy you want to hang out with, because he's off to something else."Parker's rationale for this was that Griffin's fiancée is white and because there was "talk" that he is a Republican.Parker's comments came in response to a USA Today story in which Griffin said he didn't want to be "defined" by his race."For me, you don't ever want to be defined by the color of your skin,'' Griffin said at the end of Wednesday's post-practice news conference in reference to a question about Martin Luther King, Jr. "You want to be defined by your work ethic, the person that you are, your character, your personality. That's what I've tried to go out and do."I am an African-American in America. That will never change. But I don't have to be defined by that.''Parker's rant made fellow panelist Stephen A. Smith particularly uneasy."I'm uncomfortable with where we just went," Smith said."RGIII, the ethnicity or the color of his fiancée is none of our business, it's irrelevant, he can live his life in whatever way he chooses. The braids that he has in his hair, that's his business, that's his life, he can live his life."For those asking for ESPN Statement on Rob Parker: "The comments were inappropriate and we are evaluating our next steps." — David Scott (@ESPNprDScott) December 14, 2012 Promoted Stories Comments

Juniper Taps Microsoft Vet Muglia to Head Software Unit
Juniper Taps Microsoft Vet Muglia to Head Software Unit
Jeffrey Burt
Posted 2011-07-25
Juniper, which competes with the likes of Cisco and HP in the networking space, has hired former Microsoft executive Bob Muglia to oversee its newly created software division.
Juniper Networks is hiring former longtime Microsoft executive Bob Muglia to head up its newly formed software division, an indication of the importance Juniper and other networking vendors place on the role of software in the market. Juniper on July 25 announced the decision to make Muglia executive vice president of its Software Solutions Division, where the company will centralize its varied and growing software offerings. Muglia will oversee Juniper's overall software strategy, according to CEO Kevin Johnson.
"We are excited to have a leader of Bob's caliber coming on board to lead Juniper's software initiatives, and I'm confident that his vision, management savvy and technical expertise will bring tremendous value to our organization," Johnson said in a statement. "As we continue to execute on our growth strategy centered on systems and software, we look forward to Bob playing a central role in extending our leadership position in network-powered software solutions."
With networking playing an increasingly important role in the data center, thanks to the growth of such technologies as virtualization and the rise of cloud computing, there is a need for software that helps manage, configure and run the network. All the major networking vendors are growing their network software offerings, though Juniper officials see their portfolio-and the combination of that software with their hardware-as a key differentiator in its competition with the likes of Cisco Systems and Hewlett-Packard. Central to that portfolio is the
Junos Networking operating system
, which is the software platform that is common to all of Juniper's hardware, from routers and switches to security devices. Juniper also offers a Junos SDK (software development kit), which enables its own developers and third-party programmers the chance to develop applications that leverage the network operating system. In addition, the vendor offers a host of other software products, including the SRX Series and vGW Series security products, MobileNext core for mobile operators, the Junos Pulse mobile security suite for managing mobile devices, and the Junos Space platform for developing and deploying network applications.
Juniper executives said they hope to grow and enhance their software portfolio with Muglia at the helm. He brings with him more than 23 years at Microsoft, where most recently he was president of Microsoft's $15 billion Server and Tools Business, a unit whose revenues grew 50 percent under his direction. The business group encompasses infrastructure software, developer tools and cloud computing platforms, including products such as Windows Server, SQL Server, Visual Studio, System Center and the Windows Azure Platform. In January, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer announced that Muglia would be leaving the software giant this summer, part of a larger
exodus of high-ranking executives from Microsoft
that started last year and spilled over into 2011. A month later, Microsoft
tapped Satya Nadella
, who had overseen the company's Bing search engine business, to take Muglia's place as head of the server and tools business. In announcing Muglia's departure, Ballmer praised his performance but said that new leadership was needed. "While Windows and Office are household words, our Server and Tools Business has quietly and steadily grown to be the unquestioned leader in server computing," Ballmer wrote in a Jan. 10 email to employees. "We are now ready to build on our success and move forward into the era of cloud computing." For his part, Muglia sounded excited about the move to Juniper. "I have long respected Juniper for its disruptive approach to solving the toughest networking problems and for its networking vision that is simple, open and programmable," he said in a statement. "I am thrilled to be joining Kevin and his team and look forward to contributing to the company's continued success and momentum in the marketplace."

Water is the best thing to drink during pregnancy, so you should have at least six glasses a day. But a glass of orange juice with breakfast or a snack provides folic acid, potassium, vitamin C, and other vitamins. Because of juice's high sugar content, don't make it your all-day drink of choice.

Celebs are known to go on fad diets to get red carpet ready in an instant — Dukan diet anyone? But these days, it's their kids who are following the unusual eating habits.

Three girls with three agendas and the ultimate destination: the Hamptons.
Summer in the city? Way overrated. Everybody who's anybody in New York City summers in the Hamptons. Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui all want a piece of the action, all for different reasons.
So the girls answer a classified ad to become au pairs. How bad can it be, watching a couple of kids on the beach all day? They've got the swank address, the sweet ride, and an all-access pass to the hottest social scene on the East Coast. It's shaping up to be the summer of their lives.
Melissa de la Cruz is the bestselling author of The Blue Bloods series and The Witches of East End. She also wrote The Ashleys novels and Girl Stays in the Picture. Her work has been translated into several languages. She writes regularly for Marie Claire, Gotham, Hamptons, and Lifetime magazines, and has contributed to The New York Times, Glamour, Allure, and McSweeney's. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and daughter.
Los Angeles Times Book Review Melissa de la Cruz has created a rambunctious first novel that deserves to have its every page encrusted with sand, its binding ringed with condensation from highball glasses.
Publishers Weekly Society Page addicts will no doubt enjoy its irreverent spin on the glamorous life.

Josiah H. Bell received the first grant deeded to a member of
Austin's Colony, was entrusted with the affairs of the colony during
Austin's absence, founded the towns of East and West Columbia.
Mary Austin Holley, cousin of Stephen F.
Austin, never moved to Texas but owned land on Flores
Bayou and Quintana in Brazoria County and visited in the
area for months at a time, staying with her brother, Henry
Austin at his home at Bolivar, about 40 miles up the Brazos
River from the mouth, and with her relatives, the Perrys,
at Peach Point Plantation. She probably did more to publicize
Texas than any other single person, writing voluminous
letters, newspaper articles, even books about the
state. Her Texas Diary covers a period from 1835 to 1838, e
most of which was spent in the area, and gives a graphic
picture of the living conditons, the social and political
activities. L
James W. Fannin, Jr. settled at Velasco in
1834, established a plantation on the San Bernard River
near Brazoria, took part in several battles of the Revolution
and was in command of the Texas forces at Goliad
where he and most of his men were massacred.
John Austin aided Stephen F. Austin in settling the original colonists,
founded the town of Brazoria in 1828, was elected alcalde of the Jurisdiction of
Brazoria in 1832, established one of the first cotton gins in Texas, was a delegate to the
Convention of 1833, was one of the leaders in the Battle of Velasco.
W. D. C. Hall was in Texas twice before returning to what was to be
Brazoria County in 1835 where he established a plantation called China Grove which
he later (in 1842) sold to Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston. He was a member of the Safety
Committee at Columbia, appointed adjutant general by Burnet, served as secretary of
war of the Republic.
William H. Wharton, an attorney from
Tennessee, established Eagle Island Plantation in the
present city of Clute, in 1827. He took part in the
Battle of Velasco and the Siege of Bexar, was named
with Stephen F. Austin and Branch T. Archer to a
commission to seek support, men, money, and arms
from the United States to aid in the coming revolution,
was the Republic's first emissary to the United
States, served in the first Senate.

Slipped out in my nightware to see my man of stone.
I know he whispered my name,
I knew that hardness matched my soul.
One night ,one lifetime told,
of the secret so far below
my lips had never spoke.
I begged he take me deep within
his mountain granite tomb.
His eyes glazed over, the ground shook,
My man was making room.
hidden among gnarled trees,
the moist decay with which we'll feed.
No more our hearts will break
or fear it's bitter regret
soon enough those we knew
have only to forget.
Ella -2012 straight from my camera.

" Occupy Art " Occupy something!!!!
And if you can't do that than at least "don't be mean".
When we can each do that then we will be living a true life.
One of Grace.
One of unbounded creative energy.
One without rules .For they are only needed where there is disrespect, fear, and unkindness.
great effect

Wisniewski to miss 4-6 weeks with broken foot
Updated: February 27, 2013, 2:48 PM ET
Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed defenseman James Wisniewski on injured reserve retroactive to Feb. 24 and he is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a broken right foot.
Wisniewski was injured when he was struck by a shot during Sunday's game against the Chicago Blackhawks.
He had three goals (all on the power play) and six assists in 15 games this season. The 29-year-old had picked up a point in eight of his last nine games prior to being hurt.

1-Day Acuvue is the original daily contact lens from healthcare pioneers Johnson & Johnson. Further Information
Your prescription information is on the right hand side of your contact lens box. For accuracy we suggest using this to make sure you order the correct lenses.
They keep my eyes comfortable all day and there's no need for a long cleaning routine after removing them.
I have really dry eyes and when I used monthlies they always felt even drier and gritty after some time. I then decided to switch to dailies. These are the second ones I tried and they are amazing.
I have used these for 3 years and they are really comfortable.
Very comfortable lenses. Good value for money!
I have worn these lenses for years. Great quality, good price.
I don't wear lenses very often, usually only for sport, as I find them better for cycling, football and going to the gym than my glasses. Daily lenses give me the freedom to store a couple of boxes at home for occasional use, whereas monthlies felt like a waste of money based on my wearing pattern. I find that 1-Day Acuvue are perfect for me, they offer clear vision and feel very comfortable during wear.

This discribes network marketing accuractally and objectively. Its written by professors. Its not an industry hype book.

Excellent information that will open your eyes to what is going on out there. See the pros and cons of being an employee, an employer and an entrepreneur. Even though the book was written a decade or so ago, the information is relevant. The way it has been written sounds like it was meant for the recession we are in...

Product Description
Uberti has re-created some of the special-order single action cattleman six-shooters that would have been right at home on the dangerous streets of Dodge City, Kansas. The Uberti 1873 Cattleman series replicates many popular variations of the Colt 1873 Single Action Army, arguably the best-selling pistol ever produced. The New Model Cattleman features an improved cylinder-pin retainer that's spring-loaded for easier release and removal of the cylinder pin. It also has a slightly higher fixed front sight and an oblong ejector-plunger grip. The matched sets share the same serial number, but are distinguished from each other by an R or an L preceding the serial number. |
