Food Award
Had some really tasty biscotti the other day - which is the equivalent to falling off the wagon for a diabetic like me. Usually I can't stand sugary things, because they are so cloyingly sweet. Biscotti with dark chocolate dipped in nice hot black coffee is another matter. The binge only lasted a short while, and I thought that entering an image into a food competition was actually fitting. Well, it must have hit the judge on some level, because he awarded a "mark of excellence" award in "I Shot-It's" latest food competition.
The I Shot-It judge's comments can be found in HERE.

One redo, and one new
I revisited this ArtPrize installation again, because I wanted to capture the feel, and didn't think I got it last time. This time a little boy gliding around the room with his arms out, and an awestruck couple passionately discussing the piece gave me the context I was looking for.
This scene slapped my face and screamed "shoot me". I almost didn't get my camera up in time, and then it was gone. There is so much going on here - click the photos to see larger versions!

Like seeing an old friend...
Was checking out the art last night in Grand Rapids, and I found an unofficial entry. Sam kindly shot a photo to commemorate the occasion. I think this is my first image at iso 25600...impressive! Found another piece that is also impressive.
I haven't been participating in the art contest the last few years, and it has changed quite a bit. The vibe is different, and some venues don't seem invested in the competition to the same degree as in the past. I will continue to visit additional venues, and art over the next couple weeks.

A Couple Awards
I got notice this morning that this photo was given an award of excellence by I Shot It.
With Angus moving out, and Sam becoming more reclusive - the house seems very quiet now-a-days. Nothing like the constant "Will you stop touching me" days of not so long ago. Quiet is nice! Here is a link to the I Shot Competition CLICK HERE

The wing wherewith we fly
When I started this blog the hope had been to write something that had some value. I don't think that has occurred in the way that I had hoped. Shakespeare writes with such an economy of words that span centuries. His words with substance (this blog's slogan) are the inspiration for this photo. The photo is titled "The wing wherewith we fly", but it is merely the heart of the Shakespeare quote: "Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven." Pictured is two of a six volume set of large sized, and illustrated complete works of Shakespeare.

Stitchin' Seattle
I enjoy making panorama's, but a really enjoyable horizon makes them so much better. During a recent visit to Madison Washington (a suburb of Seattle) I pressed into service an old 500mm Reflex-Nikkor - C f8 lens from the early 1980's. It's a catadioptric lens design which is brilliantly small, and light. Though it lacks contrast, and can produce weird dough nut shaped highlights - it completely lacks any chromatic aberration. The above image is 24 vertical images stitched together and it is sized from it's 40,000 + pixel size down to 2000 pixels. Even 60 miles away, Mount Rainier dwarfs lake Washington in the foreground.
This nine vertical image stitch shows the new lake Washington bridge being constructed. It is suppose to be finished by 2016, and I believe they intended to just sink the floating portion of the bridge in the foreground of the above panorama. Click either photo to see a larger version.

Art & Beyond
A friend let me know about a trade magazine (Art and Beyond) that is exclusively distributed to art galleries, museums and art institutions. They have an annual "Special Digital Art and Photography" issue, and they held a competition to be a featured artist. I got word in early March that I was one of the featured artists selected to be in the magazine (page 21). The link below is to an online version of the magazine. (I'm ordering some hard copies) However, you can see my entries (above) and those of the other 15 featured artist in this link. I would suggest you make it full screen to see it better.

FM Monthly Assignment Win - Theme Antique
Had another win in Fred Miranda's monthly assignment (#118). The topic was antique - the top five finishers can be found HERE
I've had 16 wins doing these "Assignments" on FM. (Which you can see here) However, some of my favorite images only made it to second place (19 times), or even third place (18 times). But, the best thing about these "Assignments" is getting out there shooting, and doing your best to convey the topic. It sharpens your skill, and the reward is another likely keeper for your portfolio.

Louisiana's higher-education leaders told state lawmakers this week that education quality is suffering after repeated cuts to university budgets. If lawmakers pass Gov. Bobby Jindal's new higher-education budget it will mean the state has cut school funding by nearly 85% since 2008. "The strength of a university depends on faculty and support staff. It's hard to stay competitive when you start losing quality faculty," Louisiana State University System President William Jenkins told lawmakers.

I just dug out the 2010 Auto Issue (came out in March 2010)
I am slighly confused that Consumer Reports condemed Toyota cause of its bogus sticking throttle pedal problem, but at the same time gave high marks to those vehicles that was effected by the recal, BUT gave low marks to the 09 Tundra and the 09 Tacoma 4 cyl that never were effected by the recall??
Consumer Reports also gave higher marks to the Honda Ridgeline over the Toyota Tacoma where the Honda Ridgeline was horrible in its crash test results.
According to Consumer Reports its more important for a comfortable, quiet ride than getting killed in a crash?
( The Toyota Tacoma rated better than average in all the crash tests )

Bravura doesn't begin to describe Greengrass's skill in mounting these complex sequences...This is, simply put, some of the most accomplished filmmaking being done anywhere for any purpose.
The best action thriller of the year.
The best blockbuster of the summer and the most accomplished thriller since, well, Supremacy. This is the payoff Bourne fans have been waiting for and the standard to which future blockbusters should be held.
Feels fresher, leaner, and faster than any action movie in years.
Mr. Greengrass knows how to do his job, and there's no one in Hollywood right now who does action better, who keeps the pace going so relentlessly, without mercy or letup, scene after hard-rocking scene.
Unstoppable fun.
A great action movie, exhilarating and neatly crafted, the kind of picture that will still look good 20 or 30 years from now.
The movie is one continuous, exhausting, exhilarating chase.
A spectacular windup toy of a thriller -- a contraption made by an artist.
Damon's minimalist style is key to why the Bourne movies have become an oasis from other blockbuster action fare.
Few films combine a dense and tingling atmosphere with the headlong pacing and adventure of The Bourne Ultimatum.
It's a relentless finale to the "Bourne" movie trilogy that raises the stakes, pumps up the action and develops old characters while introducing new villains
Audiences will eat it up: This is a postmillennial spy-action movie pitched to a large international audience. You hardly need subtitles.
A pounding, pulsating thriller that provides an almost constant adrenaline surge for nearly two hours.
It says something about Paul Greengrass' directing style that he's able to make a movie as fresh and frank as The Bourne Ultimatum from a genre as moldy and bombastic as the spy thriller.
This is the most satisfying thriller of the year, capping the Bourne trilogy.
Director Paul Greengrass - who directed the superb "United 93" between the second and third "Bourne" installments - knows how to stage and edit bravura action sequences, generating almost unbearable suspense while deploying a superb cast.
The movies are smart -- smarter than you, but not in an off-putting way. Their basic appeal, especially this new one, is that Matt Damon's killing machine, Jason Bourne, is the cleverest man on earth. And we thrill to his sense of superiority.
Both the most bewildering of the three movies and also the most brutally compelling.
It's the rare action picture whose adrenaline-driven thrills neither overshadow the characters nor degenerate into cartoonish preposterousness.
You sit there, and the action assaults you, and using words to re-create it would be futile. What actually happens to Jason Bourne is essentially immaterial. What matters is that SOMETHING must happen, so he can run away from it or toward it.
It's an action picture that's been distilled and compressed to its tightest, barest, almost abstract essence, and it's absolutely thrilling.
Bursting with so much amped-up energy, you may need to rest once it's finally done.
The movie is thunderously exciting, but what makes it resonate is the wrenching story we read on Damon's face. We've waited all summer for a wild ride to grab us with more than jolts. Now it's here. Hang on.
You come out of the movie both excited and soothed, as if your body had been worked on by felt-covered drumsticks.
For action junkies, The Bourne Ultimatum will be like a hit of pure meth. It's bravura filmmaking in the jittery, handheld, frenetically edited Paul Greengrass style.
Faster and, if possible, furiouser than its predecessors.
Greengrass and co. may have made one of the best action movies in recent memory.
The Bourne Ultimatum provides a lot more suspense and tension than "Transformers" could hope for.
For once, I didn't feel cheated by an unresolved ending, but let's hope this is the end. Robert Ludlum wrote three Bourne novels, and this is one series that ought not to be dishonored by inferior sequels.
Director Paul Greengrass downplays the movie's travelogue aspects by repeating the bobbly, hand-held camera style he used on "The Bourne Supremacy." It's not a style I'm fond of.
A thoughtful, satisfying action thriller.
Most thrillers of this ilk have no qualms about going past the 120-minute mark, but I think Greengrass and company understood that overdoing it would turn mass excitement into massive headache.
This adaptation of Robert Ludlum's third and last Bourne thriller doesn't have much story left, so director Paul Greengrass has to keep it moving all the time.
A perfectly serviceable action movie…better than most, in fact. The entire premise is growing creaky, however, leading us to think we might want to leave this particular spy out in the cold a while, before he becomes completely tiresome.
It's not just vérité--it's battlefield vérité; it triggers your fight-or-flight instincts.
It's frenetic to the point of crazy while achieving a mark that barely exceeds mediocre.
The movie is so surreal it's just not very involving. As an action extravaganza, it's busy but dull.

The company sent me the wrong product so I recieved this instead of a shimmer stick. The packaging is identical, I can see why they may have made a mistake. I love the smell (lemons) even though it's a little immature, the packaging is cute (really mini) and the formula is better (for me anyways) than their moisturizing foundation stick. I use this to highlight when I contour, not to conceal. Being how it was a mistake, I probably wouldn't buy it again, I would just hope they send me the correct item next time.

Not awful, not great!
its a pretty reasonable price for what it is, but you get what you pay for with this product unfortunately. However i do thinks it works as a concealer for under the eye.
tried using it as a foundation and it looked AWFUL and pasty, it made me look like i was really sick and decided to cake my face in foundation. x
okay so the other day i felt curious and tried applying this with my stipple brush (i i first put the product on my face and then stippled it out using my elf stipple brush) MUCH better result than trying to blend out with my fingers as i did before.
Quite a good foundation especially for the price, but i would use it as an all over foundation x

I'm still mourning the loss of Max Factor's PanStick makeup. The new Irish version doesn't have my HG shade, is smaller, and just not the same. This ELF cover stick is a decent, and very inexpensive substitute. I tried Honey, based on the reviews. The color applies lighter than it looks. So I and my warm-toned light to medium skin appreciated the color advice here from MA friends.
As for the formula, it smells fine and applies with decent coverage, including dealing with darkness under the eyes, with no obvious caking or creasing. I may add more once I use it awhile. Hey, it's such a deal!

This doesn't RLY conceal as good as I would like it to be and I wish its creamier but... Oh well you can use it as a highlighter as well! Good thing is it doesn't crease up when I apply under my eyes and bad thing is it doesn't conceal much as it just makes my skin look brighter.

For ONE dollar this is a steal! I use the All Over Cover Stick in Pink Lemonade for my cheeks, eyes, and lips. It has a deep rich pink color and it also smells really yummy!!! The only downside is that some of the shimmer will smear off if you rub your cheeks against something.

I have purchased these little concealers so many times. I won't say it is the very best concealer I've ever used, but it is really incredible for the price. I have tried many, many concealers and this (other than the smell and packaging) really is comparable to many drugstore and high end products. It covers well and I find that if I use it with a damp beauty blender sponge, it blends into my skin well. I have recently been using this on the weekends to save my favorite high end products for the work week. I use the Revlon Nearly Naked foundation which is pretty sheer and use this ELF concealer to cover acne spots, scars, and my under eyes. If you are looking for a concealer, I would really recommend giving this a try. Especially for $1, what is there to lose?

I've owned and used two sticks in fair (Apricot Beige). At first, I approached them as a product only to be used as a concealer, but, I was such a fan of Max Factor's stick foundation (when it was around), I figured I'd try using it as a foundation stick, as it matches my skin tone pretty well and has the consistency of a foundation stick.
I gave it a go and am happy with the results.
I have fair, normal to dry skin am an occasionally oil prone in my T-zone.
This product works for me as a light-to medium coverage foundation. The product blends well, yields a natural finish and covers imperfections.
Though a $1.00 yields a mini package, it is fairly long lasting, with daily use, as a little product goes a long way at least for someone like myself who does not require a full coverage foundation.
I suggest using a setting powder, particularly if you are oil-prone in your t-zone. I would use a setting powder with this product, even if I used it as a concealer only. I may not recommend this product for those who are acne prone and overtly oily. The packaging can be problematic. I had one package to break and would no longer spiral up/push up properly. I tossed it.
Overall though, I'm pleased with this product. For the price, I'm of the opinion that you get a great value and I appreciate the versatility of this product. I am using it as a foundation and can also see it used as a higlighter and a darker color used as a contour stick.
The small size makes it great for travel and for touch ups throughout the day.

Not for Book Club: Kitty Kelley Takes on Oprah
Kitty Kelley, the queen of gossipy and unflattering (but extremely best-selling) celebrity biographies, has a new subject that isn't gonna like it: Oprah Winfrey.
The author's publisher announced Thursday that her 544-page unauthorized 'Oprah: A Biography' will be released April 13, with a huge first printing of 500,000 copies. We've got a hunch Oprah won't be adding this biography to her book club.
Kelley says she has high regard for Winfrey, but also felt committed to writing the truth. Kelley says she devoted the past three years to examining Winfrey's life. She says she came away "full of admiration for her accomplishments and fascinated by her complexity."
David Drake of Crown Publishers said it was time to get a closer look at the TV icon.
"Oprah has spent years eliciting intimate confessionals from her subjects, but she herself has a carefully guarded persona," Drake says, according to EW's Shelf Life blog. "This is the first complete portrait of her -- it will reveal Oprah as she has never been seen before."
But what will it actually reveal about her? "It will cover all aspects of her life...It will be evenhanded. Kelley understands Oprah's cultural importance and that is something she covers at length."
Winfrey has apparently known about Kelley's book for some time. Drake says that a few years ago she said "something along the lines of, 'I'm not encouraging it, I'm not discouraging it; this is America.'"
Kelley is known for her salacious biographies about the Kennedys, the Bush's, Nancy Reagan and Frank Sinatra. Critics have called her books "Kitty litter" and she's been accused of libel, but has never been sued.

When you write about a celebrity the question isn't is it true or not, it's whether the writing is malicious or not. Malice is defined in these cases as a reckless disregard for the truth or falsity of the story. Suing Kitty for liable is more likley than not a costly waste of time.

Can A Grasshopper And The Ant Republic Survive Long Term?
You remember the story of the Grasshopper and the Ant?
Once there lived an ant and a grasshopper in a grassy meadow.
All day long the ant would work hard, collecting grains of wheat from the farmer's field far away. She would hurry to the field every morning, as soon as it was light enough to see by, and toil back with a heavy grain of wheat balanced on her head. She would put the grain of wheat carefully away in her larder, and then hurry back to the field for another one. All day long she would work, without stop or rest, scurrying back and forth from the field, collecting the grains of wheat and storing them carefully in her larder.
The grasshopper would look at her and laugh. 'Why do you work so hard, dear ant?' he would say. 'Come, rest awhile, listen to my song. Summer is here, the days are long and bright. Why waste the sunshine in labour and toil?'
The ant would ignore him, and head bent, would just hurry to the field a little faster. This would make the grasshopper laugh even louder. 'What a silly little ant you are!' he would call after her. 'Come, come and dance with me! Forget about work! Enjoy the summer! Live a little!' And the grasshopper would hop away across the meadow, singing and dancing merrily.
Summer faded into autumn, and autumn turned into winter. The sun was hardly seen, and the days were short and grey, the nights long and dark. It became freezing cold, and snow began to fall.
The grasshopper didn't feel like singing any more. He was cold and hungry. He had nowhere to shelter from the snow, and nothing to eat. The meadow and the farmer's field were covered in snow, and there was no food to be had. 'Oh what shall I do? Where shall I go?' wailed the grasshopper. Suddenly he remembered the ant. 'Ah – I shall go to the ant and ask her for food and shelter!' declared the grasshopper, perking up. So off he went to the ant's house and knocked at her door. 'Hello ant!' he cried cheerfully. 'Here I am, to sing for you, as I warm myself by your fire, while you get me some food from that larder of yours!'
The ant looked at the grasshopper and said, 'All summer long I worked hard while you made fun of me, and sang and danced. You should have thought of winter then! Find somewhere else to sing, grasshopper! There is no warmth or food for you here!' And the ant shut the door in the grasshopper's face.
It is wise to worry about tomorrow today.
That's the story I thought of when I read this:
Tax Day is a dreaded deadline for millions, but for nearly half of U.S. households it's simply somebody else's problem.
About 47 percent will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009. Either their incomes were too low, or they qualified for enough credits, deductions and exemptions to eliminate their liability. That's according to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington research organization.
We have a massive, ever expanding federal government and yet, only half of the citizenry: are: : supporting it with their income taxes. Worse yet, the people who are paying the taxes are being incessantly demonized and accused: of: : being selfish by the people who aren't paying. Nobody wants to be forced to pay: other people's: : bills and then to add insult to injury, get the back of their hand as a "thanks."
Eventually, the ants are going to say "enough is enough" and they're either going to give up, retire, cheat on their taxes, move out of the country, or find some other way to safeguard their income from the grasshoppers. Our society shouldn't be backing the people paying the bills into this corner because one day, they will find a way to say,
'All summer long I worked hard while you made fun of me, and sang and danced. You should have thought of winter then! Find somewhere else to sing, grasshopper! There is no warmth or food for you here!'

Vienna Nocturne
A Novel
From Library Staff
"A deeply moving debut novel that brings to life two extraordinary figures--a thirty-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and a young English soprano, Anna Storace, who was his muse--in prose as spirited, timeless, and touching as Mozart's greatest compositions."
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentFor someone who loves music and especially Mozart, I was really looking forward to this novel. Disappointingly, it did not live up to my expectations. As a historical novel it falls flat on the details, which is what I love about historical fiction. And as a romance, it lacks passion. What it gives instead is a bland portrayal of a time period that is full of color and exuberance that should ultimately shine through. The author seems to have that in her own love of music, she just cannot share that with her reader.

2010 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews and Owner Comments
2010 Chevrolet EquinoxVisitor, Twinsburg, OH, February 24, 2015 10:39Bought new in June 2010. I have the 2.4 engine. At 29000 the motor was replaced under warranty. Since then I have had to replace a wheel bearing , and the heat blender actuator. The rear window defroster works when it wants to. The resonator has also rusted out and the driver side doors are starting to rusting at the bottom seams. I live in northern Ohio. I have not had a car rust this fast since the 70's. I have owned at least one GM vehicle since the 70's. This is the last GM I will own.Flag ThisLike0
2010 Chevrolet EquinoxVisitor, Shirley, NY, February 08, 2014 16:22I have a 2010 Equinox and love the car except for one major flaw. At 45000 miles, I had trouble getting the key out of the ignition. Each week it would be more difficult until the key would not come out. This is complicated by the fact that the key is left in the accessory postion and drains the battery dead! After 650 dollars to "fix" six months ago, (new solenoid) it appears the problem has returned!Flag ThisLike | 2 people like this2
2010 Chevrolet EquinoxVisitor, Jacksonville, FL, March 31, 2013 19:56Bought 2010 Equinox new...(now has 36,600 miles) had no problems while it was under warranty with the exception of the tire monitoring system. Then, received a notice from Chevrolet about the software update required for the engine oil monitor. Took it in a little over a week ago. Since then the A/C does not cool and the shifter started sticking...in Drive and can only move to the Neutral position (strange coincidence...huhhh???). Can turn off...but, the key cannot be removed from the ignition. After 30 minutes of wiggling the shifter...finally got it into Park and could then remove key. Since it was Easter Sunday weekend...everything was closed so could not get it fixed....so, had to cancel weekend trip. Real good timing.... :(Flag ThisLike | 2 people like this2
2010 Chevrolet EquinoxVisitor, Nashua, MT, December 27, 2012 15:07I loved my 2010 Eqinox but it had a bad shake sometimes going down the road and one time when my husband was driving it the steering would not work it just wouldnt engauge to turn he almost hit the ditch. Then on Sunday before christmas 2012 I was driving it going about 35 miles an hour and the steering locked up and I hit the ditch. a ditch full of snow and it ended up totalling out my car now I have no wheels and I thought at first I was just imaging the steering but once I stopped shaking I knew.

sailors in the Los Angeles Area
I recently completed my first set of sailing lessons. In a few months my boyfriend and I are setting off for an extended cruise throughout the pacific. Im not very confident right now and I need to be before I set sail.
Im not looking for lessons, but I am wondering if there are any experienced sailors in my area (channel islands, marina del ray, long beach) who would be interested in sailing with us on a few day trips. Im looking for tips, advise, experience, little things. You know, I want to see how someone who really knows how to sail sails! I can''t pay you but it would be fun and of course I would work around your schedule, make all the arrangements, feed you, etc. Thanks, Laurel |

Waffle Bar Party
Wednesday, February 19, 2014
Valentine's day with a little is just so fun you guys. For the past 7 years I've celebrated Valentine's day with my hubby, and he's made it just the most fun day. Our first Valentine's he traveled an hour to visit me at my parents house since we were still in high school and doing the long distance thing. Another year we biked 4 miles to eat at our favorite restaurant and of course we've done the fancy restaurant maybe twice. But, we are usually laid back and want to have fun for this holiday. Having a baby this year made for the best Valentine's day. I wanted to host a little get together with some of our friends to celebrate the holiday and couldn't think of a better theme than to do a Waffle Bar. It exceeded my expectations and it was so fun and cute. Of course I pulled my inspiration from pinterest, but was so surprised as to how easy it was to set up everything. Luckily I had most of the essential decor and only had to pick up a few things. Really, if you are on the fence about a fun theme to do, I suggest this kind of party. All of the waffles were eaten and everyone had so much fun making them!
And of course, the waffle party was a huge hit with Scarlett, too! She even stole my waffle! :) I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! XOXO

It's generally assumed that lobbyists influence legislation. But in some cases, they actually write the bills word for word. A week and a half ago, the House passed a measure that would roll back a portion of the 2010 financial reforms known as Dodd-Frank. And news reports revealed that language in the final legislation was nearly identical to language suggested by lobbyists. NPR's Ailsa Chang reports.
AILSA CHANG, BYLINE: What happened in the House reflected something most of Washington has long accepted. Lobbyists often write the laws themselves. So that raises two questions. Why does it happen so much? And is it a bad thing?
Let's take a look at that recent House bill. It essentially sought to wipe out a financial reform known as the push-out rule. The rule prevents banks from using your deposits to trade in derivatives. These are risky securities that many believe contributed to the 2008 financial crisis. Marcus Stanley of Americans for Financial Reform says the regulation was a way to protect taxpayer money.
MARCUS STANLEY: The purpose of this part of Dodd-Frank was to basically say that Wall Street derivatives activities should be funded by private money and shouldn't get a public subsidy, and this bill kind of reversed that.
CHANG: What the bill would do is exempt broad categories of trades from this rule. And here's what really ticked off consumer advocates like Stanley. The New York Times and Mother Jones obtained a draft language that lobbyists for Citigroup - one of the largest banks in country - offered to lawmakers.
And it turns out that 70 of the 85 lines in the final House bill reflected Citigroup's recommendations. In fact, two paragraphs were copied almost word for word, except lawmakers had changed two words to make them plural.
REPRESENTATIVE DANIEL KILDEE: It shouldn't be as a result of an investigative report by a newspaper that members of Congress find out that a bill put before them was actually written by one of the interests affected by it.
CHANG: Democrat Daniel Kildee of Michigan says no one ever told him before he first voted for the bill as a member of the House Financial Services Committee that Citigroup had drafted so much of the language. So, later on the House floor, he voted against the bill.
KILDEE: It should have been made clear to all committee members as to where this was coming from, and folks may have taken a different look or a closer look at the language if we had known it had been written by and for a particular interest.
CHANG: Citigroup declined to comment on its lobbying efforts but said in a blog post that what it advocated was good for the whole financial system.
LEE DRUTMAN: To me, this is just another tick-tock on a story that's been developing for a long time, that Congress has basically out-sourced its policy expertise to the private sector.
CHANG: Lee Drutman of the Sunlight Foundation, a government watchdog group, says as outrageous as the story seems, it's now unfortunately business as usual on Capitol Hill.
DRUTMAN: People on the Hill don't stay as long. You don't get as good people on the Hill. The expertise on policymaking more and more has moved to the private sector, and it's moved to represent those organizations and companies who can afford to pay for it, which generally isn't you and me. It's big banks and big oil.
CHANG: Drutman worked as a banking policy staffer in 2009 and 2010, handling financial reform issues. And what he saw around the Capitol was that congressional staff members were stretched incredibly thin. Lobbyists know this, so what they offer lawmakers is an all-in-one package. They'll help a lawmaker round up co-sponsors for the bill, even write talking points, as well as the specific bill language.
NICK ALLARD: Sometimes it's two words, right? So, you know, sometimes you want to insert a not or something.
CHANG: Nick Allard, a longtime lobbyist at the firm Patton Boggs, says before you think lobbyists are running Washington, consider this. Word choices in a bill have to be vetted and approved by lots of eyeballs in a long lawmaking process. So it's the members of Congress who voted for the bill, not the lobbyists, who have to take ownership over the final language.
ALLARD: So where it comes from, you know, whether they see it on the back of a cereal box or on the "Today" show or on NPR or out of a lawyer who's acting as a lobbyist word processor, doesn't matter because if the member is proposing it. They are responsible for it and they have to make the case for why it's advisable.
CHANG: Several of the House bill's sponsors didn't respond to a request for comment. And as for Congressman Kildee's concerns about transparency? Well, lobbyists aren't under disclosure requirements, so consumer advocates like Stanley say the public can't see what lobbyists have drafted for lawmakers unless someone leaks it.
KILDEE: It's a little different when the American Cancer Society gives you some technical assistance on a cancer funding bill versus when one of the largest banks in the world, which was just recently bailed out by the public, writes you a bill that will give it access to public deposit insurance to fund its exotic financial activities.
CHANG: And Stanley says the public has a right to know where policy expertise is coming from. Ailsa Chang, NPR News, the Capitol.

Conference Paper: Analysis of switching activity in DSP signals in the presence of noise
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Input switching activity is one of the deciding factors for power consumption in digital signal processing components. For accurate power estimation, it is essential to have knowledge about the switching activity in the input signal, including how this activity changes in different environments, e.g., in the presence of noise. The dual bit type (DBT) method aims at characterizing the bit-level switching activity in a signal, using signal statistics. However, the DBT method requires that the correlation coefficient and switching activity for the most significant bit of the signal are available. In this paper we give an expression for direct calculation of the correlation coefficient for the most significant bit in a signal, using the word-level correlation coefficient. Using simulation results we examine the accuracy of the given method to calculate the switching activity and correlation coefficient for the most significant bit. Furthermore, we derive expressions for accurately calculating the variance and word-level correlation coefficient for a correlated signal, when an additional noise of a given variance is added to the signal. This can be used to estimate the bit-level switching activity in a signal in the presence of noise. Finally, based on this we study the impact the additional noise has on the switching activity of the resulting signal.EUROCON 2009, EUROCON '09. IEEE; 06/2009 - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Parallel multipliers can be optimized using the intrinsic arith- metic equivalencies in their reduction-tree. In this paper, we propose a method to reduce the dynamic power consumption in parallel multipli- ers, operating within systems with effective word-length variation. Word- length variation induces a certain pattern of spatiotemporal correlations. The proposed method is capable to take such correlations into account resulting better solutions. The experimental results show about 16-21% reduction in the average number of transitions compared to random par- allel multipliers.Integrated Circuit and System Design. Power and Timing Modeling, Optimization and Simulation, 18th International Workshop, PATMOS 2008, Lisbon, Portugal, September 10-12, 2008. Revised Selected Papers; 01/2008 - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this paper we investigate the impact of finite coefficient word length on channel estimator performance. A theoretical analysis of the increase in channel estimation error due to quantization of estimator coefficients is performed, and by using simulation results, the behavior of this error in different fading environments and for different filter orders is studied. Comparing the simulated results with a theoretical model we have shown that there is a relatively good agreement between results based on the theoretical model and the simulated results. We have shown that there is a closer match between theoretical and simulated results when the input signal is less correlated. Our model is restricted to a flat-fading channel with varying Doppler, and linear FIR estimators.01/2008; -
Conference Paper: On the Impact of Fixed Point DSP Implementation on Required Channel Estimator Complexity in Communication Receivers
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this paper we discuss the impact that fixed point implementation of DSP units in a communication system chain has on the required complexity of channel estimators. We have restricted our model to a flat-fading channel and linear FIR estimators, under the assumption that finite word length effects in the DSP operations in the communication chain can be modeled as additional additive noise. We have shown that a small increase in this noise can lead to a considerable increase in the required estimator complexity if a given NMSE performance for the channel estimation must be upheld, in particular at medium- to-high CSNRs.Wireless Communication Systems, 2007.

My DH and I are planning a trip away from the kids for a long weekend in August. I haven't been in years and would love a recommendation for the best town to be close to dining, shopping &beaches. Hotel/inn recommendations are welcome... We'd like a quaint and clean place in a good location for under $300/nt if possible.
Best town to stay in Martha's Vineyard?

There's really only 3 decent size towns on Matha's Vineyard that have a variety of shops/restaurants and nearby beaches:
Oak Bluffs
Vneyard Haven
We stayed in Edgartown and really liked it - plenty of B&B's and small hotels all within a few blocks of the town. -
Report Abuse
I've stayed in Oak Bluffs and enjoyed doing so.
If memory serves, there are more ferries that come into Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs than Edgartown. Note also that there are more tourist attractions in Edgartown and Oak Bluffs than Vineyard Haven. Note also (if it matters to you) that Oak Bluffs and Edgartown are the only towns that are not "dry" on the island. Shopping options seemed about the same in all three. My impression also was that there are more public beaches near Oak Bluffs than the other two towns. -
Report Abuse
The ferries only come into Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. And you are more likely to find economical accomodations there...there are some nice b&b's on the water in Oak Bluffs.
But personally, I like Edgartown the best. There are loads of nice b&b's right in town, and you can get the shuttle to South Beach (also called Katama) which is one of the nicest beaches on the island. You can also bike to East Beach, using the On Time Ferry to go across to Chappaquidick.
The other towns, West Tisbury, Aquinnah, Chillmark, Menemsha, are all very nice, but quite expensive, and much more difficult to stay in if you don't have a car. Plus there are fewer inns, and beaches hard to access (they are still public beaches, but the parking is private and there are no shuttles. They make it tough for you to go there).
Do you plan to try to take a car across? It can be extremely difficult to get car reservations on the ferry. I suspect you need to have done it already for a weekend in August -
Report Abuse
FYI - parking (especially in summer months) is sometimes very difficult in the three main towns. It's often very limited and "metered" so you have to keep putting coins in the meters or risk getting a ticket or your car towed.
Report Abuse
If memory serves, there is a seasonal ferry that runs between Edgartown and Falmouth (not Woods Hole, either). But indeed, most of the ferries go to Vineyard Haven or Oak Bluffs.
Report Abuse
Bachs is correct about the Edgartown ferry from Falmouth--not sure of the particulars, it is a much smaller boat but goes directly there--you could Google.
Report Abuse
Thanks so much for the responses. It sounds like Edgartown might be the best choice. Does anyone have any great inn/B&B recommendations?
Report Abuse
we stayed at the charlotte inn in Edgartown - veery, very nice B&B but it's a bit more than $300/night for their least expensive room.
You can find a list of just about every B&B in Edgartown (all with plenty of reviews) on TripAdvisor - http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g41558-Edgartown_Martha_s_Vineyard_Massachusetts-Hotels.html) -
Report Abuse
Sorry, I can't help with lodging but there's also a seasonal ferry from New Bedford, MA. I've taken it before and it's a nice ferry ride. One hour.

I don't know the names of them but Edgartown has some lovely B&Bs on the side streets just outside of downtown. They are throwbacks to another time. Let me see if I can figure out which streets....NOW full disclosure! I have only seen these places from their gardens and lobbies. I have not stayed in them.

OK, this is one of the ones we have been totally charmed by from the outside. On a lovely little street. However you would need to find other info about what it is like to stay in. I did not check the prices....
DOH! Just noticed it is the same one that was mentioned above! -

As I mentioned, we stayed at the Charlotte Inn - a terrific place but it probably will exceed OP's $300/night budget. They rooms a very well appointed, the gardens are lovely, the staff was very friendly and accommodating and the home itself is impeccably maintained. Best of all you can walk to just about everything in Edgartown.

I was wondering, RA, when we have stayed in B&Bs on the Cape, they have been really noisy, as they generally are just old houses w/o soundproofing of any kind...what did you notice at this place? I know that some are not so sensitive, but it is my main issue with any overnight accommodations.

quote:If he earned 8.5% (Dave Ramsey says 10% in a good growth stock mutual fund ), then $8400 would represent about a 4% distribution. I personally would rather take my chances myself as opposed leaving it with the state.
quote:If he invests no more money, at a conservative 5% rate, that money grows to roughly $92,000 over 25 years. At a withdrawal rate of 5%, he gets $4600 per year. Far less than he would get keeping it there.
