2 months in and still happy Erik from Waunakee, WI– Verified Buyer Granted there is not a lot of history with my purchase yet but so far I'm pleased. I have the 96" version for an outdoor gazebo. I've never been able to use the deck during the summer on a sunny day. The gazebo helps up until 3pm when the sun angle floods the interior of the gazebo. These shades do a wonderful job of keeping the direct sunlight off of our bodies. This should not be considered a privacy shade. You can see out and in during the day to be able to see most objects. You need to be about 30 feet away to make out faces but both motion and stationary objects are visible. there is still enough light penetrating during the day to see clearly inside and it also lets breezes through to keep it cool. You can still feel on your skin a small amount of sunlight penetrating the shade but it makes it feel up to 20 degrees cooler and never uncomfortable. In the evening someone from the outside can still see in if the interior is lighted. |
Worth Every Penny Lisa Murray from SW Florida These shades have made such a difference in our living room. We have them hanging outside on our lanai, which faces west. Before we bought the shades, we would close the drapes every afternoon, but the living room would still heat up. Now we don't even need to close the drapes. The shades cut down the sun more than we could have imagined and the living room stays nice and cool. |
EXCELLENT sun blockage DEBRA from INDIO, CA– Verified Buyer This shade is to block the eastern rising sun in the desert summer - temps sometimes 120 degrees. The blinding sun used to fade furniture, pictures, and make it impossible to view the computer screen. Now, problem solved. Most people hang these outside the covered area; I mounted it inside for additional protection of the roller and parts. Very happy. |
Excellent and Quick Service! Virginia from SC– Verified Buyer Wayfair provided excellent service in the ordering of the Designer Series Roller Blind. |
Excellent product Mountain Girl from Flagstaff AZ– Verified Buyer Used it to block a nosy neighbor and it did the trick. Stood up well to freezing cold blizzards. Make sure it is hung on a VERY sturdy frame. I built a portico and bought three of these. Excellent and well made. |
Excellent quality shade J from Farmville, VA– Verified Buyer After many years I needed to replace an outdoor shade; again I chose Coolaroo. The fabric on the old one still remains in very good shape,however, the stitching finally wore through and could no longer support the bottom rail. |
Keeps heat out! Susan from Franklin, TN– Verified Buyer I really liked the color of my shade. It does block out considerable heat. Just don't pull the chain too fast or it jumps off track. |
cooleroo Leonard from Quartz Hill, CA– Verified Buyer Very nice shade. Blocks setting, western sun well and color of shade goes with all home colors. Very easy to install. |
Good product Nina from Lancaster, VA– Verified Buyer Works well on screened porch and has held up well. |
Very nice Anna from KY– Verified Buyer This is a very nice roller shade. It does just what it was intended to do & it looks nice. It is well made and works as I had hoped. |

A friend and I will be arriving in Atlanta late on a Saturday night and plan on meeting my sister and her family for brunch Sunday morning before my friend and I head for Asheville. We are looking for a moderately priced, kid-friendly (niece and nephew are 10 and 8) place we can meet up. Suggestions, please..............
Brunch in Atlanta

Well, if you want a bit of history and a feature of Diners Driveins and dives, look at The Colonnade. In business since maybe the 30's!! Has their old menu on display. Just old time southern food VERY well prepared. We met friends in Atlanta there and it was fun and good. They don't take credit cards, just FYI.
And we went on a Sunday and it was packed with after church diners. -
Report Abuse
I like the Colonnade. Old Atlanta/ southern. Good food. Full bar. Known for their "Gays and Grays". The diners will be pretty evenly split between young gays (mostly men) and Old Atlanta grey hairs. A very comfortable atmosphere. Everyone is happy and relaxed and a lot of folks know each other. The wait staff has been there forever.
We are having delicious weather and if you want outside dining, go to Einstein's in Midtown.
If you just want a good basic brunch place, there are several J. Christophers around Atlanta and they are known for their brunch and you'll see lots of kids. -
Report Abuse
The Colonnade sounds interesting.........Thanks for the heads up on the no credit card thing! What time did you go, Gretchen? Maybe we can go early enough to avoid the after church crowd.
I forgot to put in my OP that we will be there mid-October, but we'll keep Einstein's in mind in case the good weather hold out! -
Report Abuse
I don't have a restaurant recommendation, but when I travel to new cities I always refer to the web site urbanspoon.com. It's all patron reviews so it's a bit more trustworthy than Zaggots. Plus there are filters so that you can actually limit it to kid-friendly/brunch. I've even used the site on my smart phone when I've gotten to a restaurant only to find that there's a two hour wait and need another recommendation fast. It's not available for every city, but I know that Atlanta is included.
Report Abuse
The weather in mid-October will be absolutely delicious. Nothing is better than fall weather in Atlanta. Still warm but with a bite in the crisp air. The mountains on the way to Asheville will be absolutely gorgeous!
There's an ATM machine as soon as you go into the doors of the Colonnade. They think of everything -
Report Abuse
All what Starrs said. We were there about 1 I think and there wasn't a particular "wait". I think we were seated right away--and it was in October, as a matter of fact. It was very cool/cute, and what Starrs said about the staff is right==just down home.

My Atlanta friends really like this place for brunch:

The wife and I just got home from a visit to our son in Atlanta. We had lunch at a place called "Chicken and the Egg". We enjoyed it very much! It was fairly reasonable and a very nice looking place! It was a week day lunch, so there weren't any kids there. They do have a Sat. and Sun. brunch. You can check their website; just google Chicken and the Egg.
It's in Marietta, but that's almost the same as Atlanta. It's northwest. We certainly intend to go back when down there. -

"starrs on Sep 27, 13 at 10:00am
Marietta is a suburb of Atlanta. Not exactly "almost the same"
Thank you soo much for setting me straight. I knew what Marietta was. It's still a nice restaurant. -
Report Abuse
" I knew what Marietta was"
Glad you do. The OP doesn't.
The OP is from California. She's headed to Asheville.
Why in the world would she want to leave Atlanta and head NW to a restaurant for brunch when they are going to be driving NE towards Asheville?
It seems a strange recommendation to me. I'm sure it's convenient for your route to/from Tennessee, but heading to Marietta seems REALLY a strange routing for the OP. -
Report Abuse
While you might enjoy the Colonnade (we do) it doesn't serve brunch--it just opens early for dinner on Saturdays and Sundays.
57th Fighter Group might be fun for kids. The food is pretty good (brunch is a buffet) and it is right at a small airport so you can watch planes take off and land. Decorated like a WWII officers' club.
Concur in NOT going to Marietta for lunch. That's way too far out of town and there are lots of places right in the City. -
Report Abuse
The 57th Fighter Group would be perfect for my aviation crazy nephew!! I will definitely pass that on to my sister.
Plans have changed, and my sister won't be joining my friend and I for brunch, but she and I are still trying to figure out if we want to try one of the above mentioned places, or if we should just eat our way to Asheville by stopping at some of the places starrs recommended.

Barbara Hesselman Kautz
YORK — York Public Library is presenting A Vietnam Nurse Remembers: Barbara Hesselman Kautz, on Thursday February 6, at 7 p.m.In recent months we have been marking anniversaries of social and political events of the 1960's; the assassination of President John F Kennedy, landmark legislation for civil rights and desegregation to name a few. Amid these high profile remembrances and tributes, there are other less public recollections of events and circumstances that were also an integral part of our collective history of the tumultuous 1960's. Certainly the Vietnam War stands among these. Kautz will recall her life-changing experience as a military nurse in Vietnam and read from and sign copies of her newly published memoir, "When I Die I'm Going to Heaven Cause I Spent My Time in Hell." Forty-four years ago this month, York resident Kautz went to war. A 22-year-old second lieutenant in the United States Army Nurse Corps, she had less than six months experience as a graduate nurse when she was assigned to the 24th Evacuation Hospital, Long Binh, Republic of South Vietnam.
Now retired from York Hospital she volunteers for AIDS Response Seacoast, sings with Seacoast Community Chorus and in the choir at St George's Episcopal Church. A bicycling enthusiast, she recently participated in a cross country bike ride and looks forward to riding the East Coast Greenway from Florida to Bar Harbor in 2015.The York Public Library is located at 15 Long Sands Road in York.

Chapter 6 BUSINESS CONTEXT History of the Cash Flow Statement The balance sheet and income statement have been required statements for years, but the cash flow statement has only been formally required in the United States since 1988. However, cash flow statements, in some form or another, have a long history in the United States. In 1863, the Northern Central Railroad issued a summary of its financial transactions that included an outline of its cash receipts and cash disbursements for the year. In 1971, the APB (predecessor of the FASB) started requiring that a ―funds statement‖ be included as one of the three primary financial statements in annual reports to shareholders. The APB did not specify a single definition or concept of funds or a required format for the statement. The most commonly used definition of ―funds‖ was working capital (current assets minus current liabilities). Thus, a ―funds statement‖ reported changes in cash, accounts receivable, and inventory as if they were the same thing. The funds statement was not without its problems. Buildups in receivables and inventory without a corresponding increase in sales would result in positive funds from operations yet result in no cash. The W. T. Grant Company provided a classic example of the downside of using the working capital definition of funds. The largest retailer in America prior to its bankruptcy filing in 1975 was W. T. Grant, whose continued buildup of inventory and receivables (resulting in positive funds from operations) masked a five- year negative cash flow from operations that eventually led to the company's demise. As a result of numerous cases like W. T. Grant's, the Financial Executives Institute (FEI) began encouraging its members to adopt a cash emphasis in their funds statements. In 1980, only 10 percent of the Fortune 500 companies used a cash focus; the other 90 percent reported net changes in working capital. By 1985, 70 percent used a cash focus. In late 1987, the FASB finally called for a statement of cash flows to replace the more general funds statement. At that time, the FASB established the statement format that we use today, based on the three-way classification of cash flows into operating, investing, and financing activities. Because the required cash flow statement is relatively young (remember, double- entry accounting is 500 years old), it sometimes doesn't get the emphasis it deserves as one of the three primary financial statements. In fact, because the traditional analysis models were developed in an age when cash flow data were not available, analysts will go to great lengths to approximate cash flow numbers, seemingly unaware that since 1988 the actual numbers have been easily available in the cash flow statement. For example, a number often used in evaluating a company's health is EBITDA—earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. When pressed about why they use this number, an analyst will say, ―EBITDA approximates operating cash flow.‖ Why don't analysts use the real cash flow numbers? Because information from the cash flow statement is not yet ingrained in the analytical tradition. But it will be. Questions 1. Briefly describe how using the working capital definition of funds masked the cash flow troubles of W. T. Grant. 2. Why is the cash flow statement frequently overlooked by financial analysts? Sources: James H. Thompson and Thomas E. Buttross, ―Return to Cash Flow,‖ The CPA Journal, March 1988, pp. 30–40. James A. Largay III and Clyde P. Stickney, ―Cash Flows, Ratio Analysis and the W. T. Grant Company Bankruptcy,‖ Financial Analysts Journal, July/August 1980, pp. 51–54.

November 20th, 2014Roy Jones: Mundine would give Floyd the fight of his life
By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing
Future Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr was in Australia recently as a guest of Newcastle businessman Richard Claut and to open the One World Boxing Gymnasium. Jones commented that former WBA super middleweight champion Anthony "The Man" Mundine could upset boxing's pound for pound best, Floyd Mayweather Jr., after the controversial Australian's scored an upset split twelve round points decision over WBC #2 Sergey Rabchenko.
"Of course he would have a shot at him," Jones said. "I mean, Mayweather would consider Mundine as old and out of his prime, so he would take that shot, but he'd be making a big mistake because Mundine is the kind of guy who could give him the fight of his life. Mundine is not a dumb fighter at all. Sometimes he takes more damage than he has to. With Mayweather, he would be the bigger fighter and he could afford to take Floyd's power shots."
WBA #13 Mundine has stated he would also welcome a chance to fight WBC #1 Saul Alvarez.

November 19th, 2014Klitschko-Briggs a possibility
Heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko may face nemesis Shannon Briggs in his next fight. "I want what the fans want, also Briggs," stated Klitschko. In a poll by German media giant BILD, 72% of respondents stated they want to see Klitschko face Briggs and Wlad's manager Bernd Bönte told RTL that Klitschko-Briggs "isn't entirely excluded."
The 42-year-old Briggs, who is currently rated WBA #7, has been stalking the Klitschko around the globe, twice confronting him in the gym, at press conferences, at a restaurant and even on the open sea, generating millions of views on YouTube in the process. Last week in Germany Briggs disrupted Wladimir's press training, but was prevented by security from direct contact with the champ.

November 18th, 2014Quebec loses another main event
By Dave Spencer
Another Canadian main event knocked out within hours of each other. After losing Lucian Bute as the headliner for December 6th at the Bell Centre, Friday's card in Sorel Quebec that was to have featured super-middleweight Schiller Hyppolite (13-1 9KO) fight for a pair of vacant belts (IBF North American and WBC Continental Americas) has also lost its marquee matchup. Hyppolite's opponent Alan Campa (10-1 7KO) reportedly could not make arrangements to make it into Canada. Hyppolite had just entered the rankings at #15 (IBF) and was hoped that this fight would solidified that position and move him up even further. The Eye of the Tiger Management card is still going forward featuring fights from lightweight Mick Gadbois and 140-pounder David Theroux.
November 18th, 2014Bute out for December debut with Roach
By Dave Spencer
Former super-middleweight champion Lucian Bute (31-2 24KO) debut under new trainer Freddie Roach set for December 6th in Montreal has been washed-out owing to a back injury suffered in sparring by the Romanian fighter. Bute was to have faced Roberto Bolonti (35-3 24KO) of Argentina as the headliner at the Bell Centre, a spot that will now feature Jean Pascal (29-2-1 17KO) battling Donovan George (25-4-2 22KO) as the marquee matchup.
"It's a case of bad luck," said Bute's promoter Jean Bedard of Interbox of the injury that took place in Macau China where Roach is readying Manny Pacquiao for this Saturday. "When he decided to stay in boxing (after loss to Jean Pascal) we said that next time he came to fight he would be 100% ready. They judged that this injury that occurred during sparring that he wouldn't be able to train for two weeks. It would be dangerous not having him at 100% so we decided it would not be a good idea to get into the ring. What I understand is that he will be able to fight at the beginning of 2015."

November 18th, 2014Cleverly: I have too many strengths for Bellew
Nathan Cleverly says Tony Bellew cannot handle his all-round ability and that will be the key to victory when they meet at the sold-out Echo Arena in Liverpool on Saturday night. "A lot of people have him as the favourite because he's the naturally bigger guy," said Cleverly. "He is heavy handed, apparently, so they think that is too much of a jump for me and it is a big jump. I'm up against it but I am confident. I know my own body, I know what I can do. Mentally and physically, I know my limits and I know that I can beat this guy at Cruiserweight. I feel comfortable, strong, sharp and fit. I'll beat this guy. I've got too many strengths and I'll bring everything I've learned from the lighter divisions up to Cruiserweight. I'll bring the speed, I'll bring the stamina. He can bring his power – I've already tested it and I've taken it with ease. It will be no different at Cruiserweight." (more…)

Emme of Capri, 277 Summer Street, 353-0626, must be a secret that only the most savy stamford restaurant goers must know about. Wanna know how I know this? Well, cause that's where I dined this week at lunchtime. It's a small space: Only a handful of tables, and cozy. Decor was fitting and set the "Italian" mood. A painted mural that spanned the whole wall and colorful Italian tiles depicting Capri where all around. It wasn't hard to find the perfect spot, which was a window next to the sidewalk . Perfect for people watching during the afternoon lunch hustle-bustle. Not a crowded place. Benefit being, that it was such a pleasure to be able to have nice conversation with the person I was sitting with, instead of having to make-believe I could hear him. (you know, it gets annoying after the tenth time I have to say "What did you say, I can't hear you...." during an hour long lunch) We had a nice chat with the owner, Massimo, with his sultry authentic Italian accent, who I could listen, with no problem, to whatever he would share. He was busy checking the "wine" pages for some future selections. Not knowing much about wine, the conversation was short, but I wished him luck and was pretty sure he didn't need it to pick out the perfect wines for the menu. Needless to say, my lunch was served to perfection: Tasty linguine and clams from New Zeeland.(sic). My friend had the freshest fish recommended, which I can't remember the name right now, but I know it was the first entree on the menu. As we left Massimo to head back to the office, we quietly validated our choice to one another as being right on mark for a nice, quiet restaurant close to the office, but best of all, excellent Italian fare.

Click, click: How the people's credit card was launched
Chargex was the first card aimed at Canadian consumers, but it almost never got off the ground. Hard to imagine today
"Yes, I would say it was a tipping point. I never thought of it that way, but that's exactly what it was."
That's Griff Thompson, casting his mind all the way back to 1968 when, as research director at advertising agency McCann Erickson, he was part of the group charged, if you will, with launching the nation's first full-service credit card.
An edgy, go-go sort of a name sprung from Group X, a boutique offshoot of McCann, housed in the Lothian Mews. The creative types at Group X spent a lot of time at the Coffee Mill there. Thinking.
The group's writer, a guy named George, would get a faraway look in his eyes. "Everything was in metaphor," says Dennis Bruce, who was art director. "That was Group X."
"The name sounded pretty good," says Griff Thompson. The name being Chargex. "It sounded like whatever I'm not going to pay right now I'm going to charge to my account."
One of the group's challenges was this: how to introduce the nation to "the working man's credit card" as the Star would refer to it, as distinct from the businessman's credit card, American Express?
That's the sound of an imprinter being run across a plastic credit card, pre-magnetic strip, the signature sound of the card's commercials. "I have this theory about advertising, which is, if you can create a mnemonic device, you've got a burr in the brain," says Bruce. "It almost never leaves you."
Free money was the top-line pitch. No interest incurred if your balance was paid within 25 days! Click-click.
And, unlike, say, the Eaton's card, or Esso — "Happy Motoring!" — consumers could use their Chargex card to purchase everything from antiques to yard goods from a wide array of participating merchants. "What we were doing was taking a category out of business and putting it in the hands of consumers," says Stu Eaton, once McCann's chairman, now long retired. The name Chargex, he points out rightly, "was both original and explanatory." Sharp. In contrast to, say, a name such as Visa, a good name for a car, Eaton thinks, or maybe a line of diet foods.
Back to free money. What was not to love?
Consumers did not love the idea. "People said, look, if you're going to bring out another card we're going to cut it up," Bruce recalls. He wonders if debt aversion was part of the reason why. In pre-market surveys, as many as 60 per cent of respondents said they didn't want it.
"Usually in my business when you get a 60-per cent resistance, nothing goes anywhere," says Terry O'Reilly, ad guy and co-creator of The Age of Persuasion on CBC Radio. "It's astounding that they still pushed through with it."
The prognosis was grim. "It's going to be a flop, was sort of the take we had on it at the time," says Bruce.
Four banks were on board, which meant that Group X had to wrangle reps from the bank of Commerce and the Royal and the TD and Banque Canadienne Nationale all in one room. The group would rotate, bank to bank to bank, each trying to outdo the other. The wine! The meals! Egos being what they are, the ranks of the big swinging banks grew and grew until a meeting room had to be reserved at the Park Plaza Hotel. "It got to a point where the meetings would erupt into arguments backwards and forwards," says Bruce. "Terribly embarrassing for the clients."
The initial ad campaign was built from two angles. One: appealing to customers — "You can furnish the living room. Buy a violin." Two: appealing to merchants — "Cancel your vacation . . . You'll be far too busy this year." Shoppers newly armed with Chargex would be running shopkeepers off their feet — that was the idea.
Debt? Well, the adverts made a delicate suggestion: "Cardholders may make small monthly payments if they prefer." At a 1.5 per cent rate of interest monthly.
Click-click! Gold mine!
Group X's television commercials are lost, like much of the story, to "the mists of time" as Dennis Bruce likes to say.
But that sound. Will that be cash or Chargex? Click-click! That stays with us. "That mnemonic was so catchy and sticky," says Terry O'Reilly. It burred right into the brain.

Touring America's oil rigs and nuclear plants, John McCain sometimes sounds as if he'll produce enough wind to power the nation all by himself.
The government of President Sidi Ould Cheikh Abdellah came to an end Wednesday in the West African state of Mauritania, as military officers arrested both Abdellah and the prime minister in a coup against a government denounced for its "corruption and ineptitude in handling rising food prices and oil revenues." Sound familiar at all?
A national strike left South Africa's streets largely deserted Wednesday as 2 million people refused to work in protest of soaring food and fuel prices. The action, led by a coalition of trade unions, was symbolic and precautionary, suggesting additional strikes if the government and business remained inept at managing the national economy.

According to the Politico, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has given her blessing to vulnerable Democrats to rebel against the party's position on offshore drilling. The strategy goes something like this: Pelosi plays the liberal from San Francisco while representatives of more conservative districts berate her. With a majority intact, the Democrats push through a comprehensive energy policy sometime in 2009.
A congressional report has found that the Iraqi government will soon have a $79-billion surplus, thanks to the record price of oil. It's a figure that will surely raise eyebrows as the U.S. shells out an additional $48 billion for reconstruction, but the situation, like all things involving billions and bombs, is a lot more complicated.
Both Barack Obama and John McCain have recently changed their positions when it comes to dealing with the burgeoning energy crisis and America's all-too-apparent dependence on foreign oil, but that doesn't mean each presumptive nominee isn't going to keep pointing out the other's potential inconsistencies and flaws, as Obama's new ad here demonstrates.
House Republicans are camping out in the Capitol, trying to pressure an up-or-down vote on offshore drilling. The lights and the C-SPAN cameras are off, but a number of lawmakers have turned to new media sites such as YouTube and even Twitter to microblog their dissent.

It's not particularly surprising that oil executives at the Hess Corp. got a little excited when John McCain changed his position in June and called for offshore drilling, but it is interesting that the Hess brass, according to Talking Points Memo, apparently demonstrated their gratitude (cue cash register sound effect here) by writing some big checks to the McCain campaign.
By Mike Luckovich —
Despite the massive federal stimulus package, national GDP only grew 1.9 percent from April to June, the Commerce Department has announced, and it actually shrank in the last quarter of 2007. Meanwhile, high gas prices, supposedly reflecting costs, spiked profits of oil companies, with Exxon recording its most profitable quarter ever. In fact, reports the NYT, "It was the highest quarterly profit ever for any American company, as Exxon made nearly $90,000 a minute."
By Mr. Fish —
John McCain's newfound enthusiasm for oil drilling probably has more to do with campaign donations than any public benefit—that's because there isn't any.
Do you think that when John McCain helped craft the legislation requiring "I approved this message" at the end of political ads he could have envisioned himself attaching his name and approval to this silliness? Behold, McCain's attempt to elevate the discourse ... by likening his opponent to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.
Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska was indicted Tuesday on seven felony counts in a corruption scandal stemming from some mutual back-scratching he allegedly engaged in with oil service and construction company VECO. The charges against the Republican include secretly accepting renovations to his vacation home in exchange for official favors to VECO.

John McCain had hoped for a photo op atop an oil rig, but he got a hurricane and an oil spill instead. The senator is known for his superstitions, but lately his lucky charms don't seem to be doing the trick. The Washington Post takes a closer look at McCain's week of bad luck and finds there's more to frown about on the horizon.
The former vice president had some choice words for big oil on Saturday, when he stopped by the Netroots Nation conference in the liberal heart of Texas to elaborate on his energy ideas and connect the dots between America's economic and foreign policy quandaries.
Americans are undergoing an "attitude adjustment," as the AP puts it, when it comes to oil, as evidenced by the current debate over lifting the ban on drilling off the U.S. coastlines. Another sign that drastic times call for what some might call drastic measures: New Hampshire residents will be keeping warm this winter with a little help from Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
On the issue of gasoline prices, Republicans think they have a winner in their call for new drilling and Democrats are playing defense. Democrats need—this is a technical term—a lot more oomph. Al Gore wants to help them.

The once-mighty U.S. dollar is full of hot air, or at least the rate of inflation is at a 26-year high due to the recent economic toils and astronomical energy prices. Prices U.S. consumers pay shot up 1.1 percent in June—or more directly, your paycheck just got 1.1 percent smaller.
With all the subtlety of a jackhammer, an enterprising right-wing artiste by the name of Mike Meehan has recorded an election-year anthem, "Please Don't Vote for a Democrat," and has launched a corresponding PR campaign via the Internet and billboard ads—like this one in noted liberal stronghold Orange County, Florida—in hopes of striking fear and indignation into the hearts of undecided voters.
In keeping with his image, the president made a lot of noise on Monday while accomplishing absolutely nothing. In keeping with theirs, the Democrats condemned the president while making plans to roll over. George W. Bush lifted an executive oil drilling ban, but a national moratorium remains in place. The hot air, meanwhile, is getting to the Democrats, some of whom chastised the president while others worked up one of their famous compromises.

The endless debate about the U.S. withdrawing its army from Iraq and what will happen to the country once it does tends to ignore much of what we know about how the world works.
Tab, The Calgary Sun —
While environmentalists and opponents of foreign oil may have found common cause in the use of biofuels, a new, confidential World Bank report estimates that the recent increase in plant-based fuel production has actually contributed to a 75 percent rise in global food prices, sparking riots across the world and pushing millions beneath the poverty line.

As we head into the Fourth of July weekend of patriotic bluster and beer swilling—but before we are too besotted with ourselves—might we also for once consider our imperfections? Why not take a moment to heed the cautions of our founding father, George Washington, whose true legacy will most likely be ignored during the flag-waving weekend?

If you plan on speeding through Holly Springs, Ga., be warned: The police chief there has decided to start charging the pulled-over a fuel surcharge. Cop houses around the country are struggling with the high cost of gas. The chief in Holly Springs said he got the idea from businesses, such as airlines, that pass their troubles on to the consumer.

More than any other mammal (except of course Mr. Homo sapiens), Ursus maritimus, which translates as maritime bear, has been in the forefront of the news lately, the subject of television specials, lawsuits, congressional debates, and New York Times editorials. Why?
There's a great deal riding on this November's presidential election—and, clearly, not just for Americans. Link TV has put together a new feature called "Dear American Voter" to tell those who will be able to cast their vote in the U.S. what their choices might represent for the rest of the world.
RJ Matson, The St. Louis Post Dispatch —

The theory that the Bush administration wanted Iraq for its oil has just gotten a major boost. It turns out that the U.S. State Department sent over a team of lawyers and consultants to help the Iraqi government work out several high-profile no-bid contracts with five Western oil giants.
Nineteen years ago, the Exxon Valdez supertanker struck a reef in Alaska, causing an environmental catastrophe so devastating its impact continues to be felt. A court later slapped Exxon with $5 billion in punitive damages, but on Wednesday the Supreme Court ruled that the oil giant shouldn't have to pay more than about a tenth of that amount.
Seems like everything is a crisis these days, what with the subprime mortgage crisis, the oil crisis and, perhaps most troubling of all, the climate change crisis. Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan acknowledged the complexity and interconnectedness of these unsettling trends Tuesday, stopping short of declaring that a major recession is on the way but without ruling out a recession of lesser magnitude.
There's nothing like the Saudi version of straight talk to put in perspective the tongue-twisting of American politicians.
By Mark Fiore —
President Bush called for a speedy end to the ban on offshore oil drilling in American coastal waters Wednesday, chiding his congressional challengers by declaring that there's "no excuse for delay" in lifting the "outdated and counterproductive" restrictions. However, some of his political opponents on this issue, like California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, are giving him heat from his own side of the political aisle.
Dario Castillejos, Dario La Crisis —

John McCain is hoping that Americans, particularly those living in coastal states, are so sick of high gas prices they won't mind a little extra offshore drilling. That's a risky assessment according to The Politico and the former head of the Florida GOP, who said that back before fuel costs skyrocketed it "would have been like pulling a pin on a grenade and rolling it into the state."
Olle Johansson, Sweden —
Clinton enthusiast James Carville tells CNN that Barack Obama should select Al Gore as his vice president candidate and energy czar in order to "send a signal to the world ... that America's gettin' serious about this horrendous problem that we face."

Forty-one Senate Republicans stayed in lock step with the oil industry Tuesday as record gas prices have big oil rolling in profits at consumers' expense. Even as they face another tough election, Republicans in Congress refused to allow a tax on oil companies' "unreasonable" revenue.
AP photo / Rich Pedroncelli
Wow, a lot of people must have bought Hummers last week. How else to explain the spike in oil prices? No, I'm not being silly: They are, and by they I mean the gaggle of media pundits and other administration apologists—abetted by some green zealots—who want to explain our energy crisis by reference to profligate consumers.
Patrick Chappatte, The International Herald Tribune —
The price of a barrel of crude oil has doubled over the last year, reaching a record $135 on Thursday. With dwindling supplies and a weak dollar, analysts expect the price to go up for some time.
What's it got to do with the price of gas? Would some reporter with access to the Republican presidential candidate please ask John McCain why he wants to continue President Bush's Mideast policy when it has proved so ruinous for American taxpayers?
AP photo / Dean Rutz
John McCain pranced through a Washington forest with reporters Tuesday, speaking of his historical support for the environment and his plan to slow global warming. The move is seen as an effort to differentiate McCain's brand of Republicanism from Bush, who ritually regarded global warming as a "theory."
In this first-ever biography of the religious leader many predict will take over Iraq after the Americans leave, Patrick Cockburn, one of the most respected correspondents in the Middle East, provides a dramatic look at a man Paul Bremer denounced as a "Bolshevik Islamist."

I often wondered if he wanted the job as president.. during this campaign he did not have the same spark as he did in the last campaign. My suspicion was all along that he was setting up Rand for 2016.

L.A. Noire developer's follow-up is slated for next-genWhore of the Orient, Team Bondi's anticipated follow-up to L.A. Noire, will be published on next-gen consoles and PC by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Set in 1930's Shangai, during a time of political unrest, Whore of the Orient will mine a similar gritty, noir style but in a far different location and context. Last year, Team Bondi head Brendan McNamara said the game will based on "one of the greatest untold stories of the twentieth century." Here's a description from the updated site: Given McNamara's track record, it's safe to assume this will be an open-world game of some nature. Whether it will mimic L.A. Noire's structure and approach is something we don't know yet, though I imagine there are many who wouldn't mind that being the case. [TeamBondi.com via Eurogamer] Comments not appearing?

HoopsHype Dirk Nowitzki rumors
Though Tuesday night's heated verbal exchange between Rick Carlisle and Rajon Rondo probably shocked many, Mavericks veteran Dirk Nowitzki pointed out that he's seen others. "In my time now, in 17 years, I've been a part of a few," Nowitzki said. "Bother guys are very competitive, want to win. So that was unfortunate, but like I said that wasn't the first time I've seen anything like that happen and it won't be the last." Dallas Morning News
Rajon Rondo, a basketball savant who has never figured out the art of shooting, quietly observed Holger Geschwindner working with his masterpiece on the Dallas Mavericks' practice court before the All-Star break. After his shooting session was done, Dirk Nowitzki made an offer to his point guard, if not a suggestion. "If you want to work with Holger, now is the time," Nowitzki told Rondo, mentioning that Rondo would be sidelined another week to 10 days due to facial fractures. "You're more than welcome." As Nowitzki recalled the moment, he added: "And Holger obviously loves challenges in his life." ESPN.com
To his credit, Rondo, who earned a reputation for being difficult to coach in his younger years, embraced the opportunity to work with Dirk's longtime mentor and shot doctor. Rondo started shooting with Geschwindner immediately after Nowitzki made the suggestion – a partnership the media got a quick glimpse of after Thursday's shootaround in Oklahoma City – and continued until Holger packed up his flannel shirts and blue jeans and headed back to Germany on Friday. Rondo plans to continue following the program that Geschwindner, who will return for the playoffs as is his custom, put in place. ESPN.com
"It's a lot different," said Rondo, a career 26.1 percent 3-point shooter and a 31.1 percent shooter from the free throw line this season. "Some things are not comfortable, but that's part of it. It's early in the process. Obviously, Dirk is one of the greatest scorers of all time. He's worked with Dirk since he was 10, 11 years old. It's going to take some time, but he's very positive and I pretty much understand all of his methods." ESPN.com
Yes, that really was 34-year-old Richard Jefferson rising from the dotted line and throwing down a vicious tomahawk slam over 21-year old Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. The dunk was so stunning and so sweet that players on the Charlotte Hornets' bench were falling over each other in shocked awe. "It was sick!" said Dirk Nowitzki, whose All-Star alley-oop is no longer the most surprising dunk of the Dallas Mavericks season, although players swear the 14-year veteran Jefferson has dunked like that in practice. ESPN.com
DeAndre Jordan: So, when you ask me whether or not I am disappointed not to have been named an All-Star, my answer is: YES! But when you ask me if I think Dirk Nowitzki deserves to represent the West at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, my answer will remain the same. Medium
Dirk Nowitzki on possibility of adding Amar'e Stoudemire "I'm sure we're going hard after him" Twitter
What, you were surprised when Dirk Nowitzki soared almost a full foot off the Madison Square Garden hardwood to throw down a lob pass from Golden State's Stephen Curry during Sunday's NBA All-Star Game? "Hey, that's what I do," Nowitzki cracked to Marc Stein in an ESPN Radio interview after the West's 163-158 win. ESPN.com
"The guys are killing me," Nowitzki said. "They said the last alley-oop I had was in the Hoop Summit in '98. It was great. Steph lobbed it up for me. He kept it nice and low, below the rim for me to get it." ESPN.com
Dirk Nowitzki had an alley-oop dunk tonight. He has 9 of those in regular-season play ... his last was in January 2004! Twitter
Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki first met the younger Gasol in 2002, at All-Star weekend in Philadelphia. Pau was in the rookie game. Marc had tagged along and was staying in the hotel room next to Nowitzki's. "I come out of my room and this huge guy comes out," Nowitzki recalled. "I mean, he was massive, tall. He must have been 350 (pounds) or something crazy. They said, 'Yeah, that's Pau's brother.' I never thought he would develop into that kind of (star) player." Bleacher Report
"I never thought he would develop into that kind of player," Nowitzki said, recalling the 350-pound behemoth he met in the hotel hallway years ago. "I mean, just really no weaknesses out there. Tough-minded. So yeah, I'm a big fan." Bleacher Report
Earl K. Sneed: Dirk says he was headed on a trip to Florida this weekend until he was told by @Dallas Mavericks assistant GM Keith Grant he's be going to NYC. Twitter @EarlKSneed
Dallas power forward Dirk Nowitzki was the final All-Star selection, getting picked by commissioner Adam Silver as an injury replacement for Anthony Davis late Wednesday night. The Mavs had lobbied for shooting guard Monta Ellis. "Let's be honest: [Ellis] should be at the All-Star Game and Dirk should be home," Carlisle said Friday on ESPN's "The Afternoon Show with Cowlishaw and Mosley" on 103.3 FM. "That's the way this should be going. I'm assuming they go by the vote count. Dirk may have had one more vote than Monta or something like that, but Monta Ellis should be in the All-Star Game." ESPN.com
"But I'm really disappointed that he's not there because this was his year to be there after all the things that he's done. He's leading the team in minutes played and points, and he's made more big shots down the stretch of games than anybody on the team. ESPN.com
So what does Dirk Nowitzki think of the fashion sense of Parsons, who has had a few modeling gigs over the last couple years. "We think he dresses like Justin Bieber," Nowitzki said. "So if you're into that kind of stuff, then you can vote for him. If you like some grown-man stuff, some slacks and button-downs, then I got him beat." Asked if some of the jeans - which no doubt cost an arm and a leg - that Parsons wears are the worst part of his wardrobe, Nowitzki said: "Sometimes, I don't think the jeans are the worst. The sweaters he wears that are almost down to his knees - female pajamas, I call them - that's the worst look, his sweaters. His shoe game is OK. Sometimes, it's too over the top for me. But, like I said, these young boys these days, the flashier, the better." Dallas Morning News
Michael Scotto: OFFICIAL: Dirk Nowitzki will replace Anthony Davis on the Western Conference 2015 All-Star team, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has announced. Twitter @MikeAScotto
TH: Nine guys have assisted you at least 150 times. Can you name those nine guys? Let's start from the top. Dirk Nowitzki: Nash. TH: Yep. Nash is No.1! ESPN.com
