Mumbai: The Bombay High Court has asked the Maharashtra government to inform by November 21 what action it has taken against education officers who are responsible for allowing unauthorised schools to mushroom in the state.
The direction was given by Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice MS Sanklecha on October 7 while hearing a PIL alleging inaction by the government against unauthorised schools.
Government Pleader N P Deshpande sought time to seek instructions on whether the state government had appointed any officer to grant previous sanction for prosecution of officers under Section 36 of `Right of children to free and compulsory education Act` for not acting against unauthorised schools.
Under the Act, the officers found guilty of allowing illegal schools to flourish in the state can be prosecuted only if previous sanction is obtained from an officer authorised by the government.
The judges granted the government pleader time till November 21 to inform what steps the government has taken against the guilty education officers for allowing unauthorised secondary and primary schools to operate in the state.
The Director of Education filed an affidavit, indicating that there were 189 unauthorised secondary schools in the state as on August 21. In Mumbai west, there were 27 such schools, in Thane 33 and Kolhapur 43.
Such unauthorised secondary schools were also found in districts of Raigad, Nashik, Jalgaon, Pune, Satara, Sangli, Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg, the affidavit pointed out.
Another affidavit filed by Director of Education for primary schools affirmed there were 243 unauthorised primary schools in the state, including 128 in Mumbai, 22 in Pune, 94 in Kolhapur and 12 in Nasik.

Rubicon Technology's CEO Presents At Canaccord Genuity 32nd Annual Growth Conference Call (Transcript)
So with that, I'll turn it over to Bill Weissman. Thanks.
William F. Weissman
Thanks, Jed. Good afternoon, everyone. So Rubicon is the world's leading provider of sapphire products as Jed mentioned. One of the main applications for Sapphire is in the LED market. It uses the substrates of choice in the LED market. But there are also a couple of other key markets we served, the SoS market and the optical market. And I'll talk more about each one of those.
We are one of the really only fully vertically-integrated sapphire producers in the marketplace, meaning we produced very high grade large-diameter sapphire products from the very base materials of aluminum oxide powder and I'll explain that a little bit more as well.
Our real strength is in our ability to produce these materials in very large diameters with very tight tolerances, which has enabled several leading industries, the SoS market is one application, which I'll talk about, which is growing rapidly right now and which has really start out at large-diameter wafers and we're also helping the LED market progress to larger and larger diameter wafers, which is helping that market kind of lower cost and address the strong demand. The LED market is the biggest market by far. It is historically been got 80% of our revenue stream, we're a little less from that right now, but clearly the biggest user of sapphire. The SoS market, which I'll talk about more, is really the fastest growing segment, we started serving right now and the optical market is our third major market. Within the LED market, I think everybody is familiar with the main applications, historically, it's been mostly display, backlighting, signage and that's been driving the growth for the past couple of years. Of course the Holy Grail in industry is general lighting.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Seven Chicago Gangsters Slain by Firing Squads
Al Capone had a pleasant Valentine's Day in 1929, when several members of a rival gang were killed under rather violent circumstances. The event was called "the most cold-blooded gang massacre of [Chicago's] underworld." A firing squad lined the men up against a wall at a beer distributor's "rendezvous," and subsequently released "a stream of bullets" into the "gang warriors." During the investigation, Chicago police found 160 empty machine gun shells at the crime scene, and eyewitness accounts claimed that several members of the squad were dressed in police uniforms. Police Commissioner William F. Russell was quoted as saying, "I've never known of a challenge like this – the killers posing as policemen – but now the challenge has been made, it's accepted," in a speech reminiscent of dialogue from The Dark Knight.
(The New York Times – Feb. 14, 1929)
Huge Snowdrifts Paralyze Province
It's a relief to discover that almost 80 years ago, people in Ontario were dealing with weather similar to what we've experienced over the last week. However, the capacity of the province to deal with the rapid and sudden accumulation of snow has thankfully grown. According to the article, only approximately 50 miles of the primary highways were accessible for vehicles, and the rest was heavily laden with snow, which left thousands of cars and busses stranded. Looks like some people in 1936 were forced to spend Valentine's Day on their own, in motor vehicles, rather than with loved ones, making anti-Valentine's Day parties in 2013 seem rather decadent.
(The Globe and Mail – Feb. 14, 1936)
Thousands of bombs destroy Dresden
Despite his many powers, Cupid could not put a one-day halt on WWII for Valentine's Day in 1945. In what is now recognized as the "firestorm" of Dresden, "2,600 tons of high explosive and incendiary bombs" were dropped on the city by 800 RAF bombers. The article does not cite the human impact of the attack, though The BBC notes that estimates of civilian deaths were between 25,000 and 100,000. The event brought the issue of the morality in dropping bombs to the forefront of European culture, inspiring works like Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse Five.

About MeAbout MeIf you'd like to work with me I can be contacted via here or email@example.com. I am very professional in my outlook to my modelling as it will be my full time career and I have a full driving licence, to date i have not been late or failed to arrive on time for a shoot. Personally I think it rude not to answer my mail so even If it is to decline an offer you will always get a reply as I have found that it pays in the long run to be polite. I can provide references if needed but no pictures unless somehow clothed will be sent out. Simply because there are too many fakes out there and I'd rather not give them what they want. Thanks for looking, enjoy your shooting and hopefully we will be able to work together sometime. Also, the pictures I have on here are a few years old, apart from the unproffesional photos i have on here, i haven't had a shoot in a while but just wanted to show what i look like now as i have changed a little.

Very good
Very good location (walk distance to restaurant, bars, supermarket, etc.). Refurnished rooms. Valet (car parking service). Discreet staff.
Bed sheet was not changed daily. WLAN very slow. Sparely breakfast.
Well organized excursion on Sunday.
Breakfast very simple.
there was a blackout in the area and noone from the hptel staff came to offer any help or informayion and this is not what it should happen in a 4stars hotel
Location and Size of the room it 's the stronger suit of the htl
The breakfast needs a lots of improvements! ...and the air conditioners equipaments needs attention!!!
After three days days asking for my invoice I did not receive even an answer from the hotel. The is incredible in a supposedly 4-star hotel.
- Location - Staff always there to help
- Small hall - Restaurant not open for diner - Executive Rooms are of old styles with small bathrooms - Swimming pool is too small and water looked not so clean
I loved the size, cleanliness, and general comfort of the room and bathroom. Having a two bedroom suite option was perfect for 3 adults (2 of which are married). While it was centrally located hotel, it is on a quiet street which allowed for good rest. I also really enjoyed the daily included breakfast.
I did not like that one shutter did not have a window behind it. It was difficult to regulate the room temperature as a result. The bathroom also needs a ventilaton system or fan.
The staff were very helpful always ready to please and find a solution
I cannot think of anything
I liked the location. and it was fairy clean.breakfast was good too.
Very bad Internet connectivity. .We had to wait for long to received password and login. The hotel some time change the login and passwords many times. . Lobby and the room has different password which cause much problems if I was moving from one place to another. Lobby is very small. And most of the time only one person working at the reception. .i had to wait some very often to get served. The female member of the staff at the reception who was on duly on the 15th June 2014 at Aprox. 15.30 was very Un experienced in his duty. Must get training in hospitality industry's and confronting clients.
Location is not bad. It got a fitness gym.
Rooms are small, cold, badly designed, small bathroom, bad bedsheets, bad AC, dated, no real lobby. Discomfortable furniture and shower.
Great location; refurnished rooms; car valet service available
room cleaning under average; breakfast personal demotivated
Location (Jardins is a great quarter in Sao Paulo). Facilities (refurnished rooms, Car Parking Valet service). Staff (reception and security) very polite and helpful.

following were not available: - Would required to provide sufficient water - Kettle for preparing Tea/coffee - In the Restaurant the menu card as well as breakfast desk should contain English version - Atleast one staff in the restaurant there should be an English speaking person.
Breakfast was not bad.
The hotel rooms don't match the photos! Look like 3star apartment rooms really... Poor staff service, even if they spoke English they were just indifferent to guests. It's quite a walk uphill to reach the metro station.
well located friendly staff
weird AC system located behind curtains, works but not really practical
I loved the rooftop pool, gym and lounge.
The location isn't that close to Paulista Avenue and required a good fifteen minute walk uphill every time...
Excellent location
The bathroom needs to be maintenance,
location, nice suites
the personal was rather improfessional. We were not informed about brackfast-times. One day it ended at 10.30 a.m., the other at 10.00, so that we could not take that day, arriving at 10.20 a.m. They did not clean the rooms, althoug I gave to the girl 1 Dollar for cleaning at the moment of leaving the room.
the room has plenty of space
old fashioned air conditioning, blowing on your legs and feet
Very good Breakfast Perfect Location Nice Staff
The cooling (AC) was much too small for the apartment and blew a lot of dirt into the room without cooling. But this was really minor, the hotel is a very good place for reasonable price in jardims.

Stately and serene, HULA MOON sits on one of the most beautiful oceanfront properties in Puako. Each bedroom has a perfect ocean view. Located near the end of the road, you will enjoy year-round sunsets and privacy. As you enter through the gates, lush tropical plantings enhance the large courtyard swimming pool and generous lanai. Designed so that every room has a magnificent view of the ocean, you will love the open and airy feeling of this 5000 square foot contemporary home. Please view our VIRTUAL TOUR- just scroll down to find the link which is below the Rates and Calendar section.
HULA MOON was designed for gracious living in a relaxed atmosphere. Including the covered lanais you have almost 7000 square feet of indoor/outdoor living space. The two-story Great Room is breezy and inviting with wonderful views of the ocean. The beautiful oceanside lanai has a dining table for 8, seating for an additional 12 guests, and a built-in wet bar. Enjoy watching the humpback whales in season, spinner dolphins and green sea turtles from everywhere in the house. The Puako reef offers some of the best snorkeling and walk-in scuba diving on the Big Island.
We have four large bedrooms located at opposite ends of the house for maximum privacy. The Kona and Kohala suites are on the main floor and both have stunning ocean views and doors that open onto the lanai. Each suite has been beautifully appointed with new King mattresses and linens. Both have large bathrooms with a separate dressing area and a large open-air shower filled with sculpture and tropical plants.
The two spacious upstairs bedrooms have expansive ocean views and a private lanai that runs the length of the house. The Aloha suite has a new King bed and two plantation chairs for relaxing. The Turtle suite has new Twin beds (that can be made into a King Bed) and a daybed 'trundle bed' that also has an additional lower twin mattress. The Turtle suite is a great room choice for the kids or for parents with a couple of children. Of course, it is also perfect for a couple or for several friends to share. Both upstairs bedrooms have private bathrooms with large walk-in showers.
Each bedroom has a TV/DVD player and an iPod speaker dock. There are 6 televisions with premium cable channels throughout the house. We do not have air conditioning because the home was designed to 'breathe' and to take advantage of the steady ocean breeze and the winds coming off the mountain. This provides excellent cross ventilation. There are ceiling fans and louvered windows in every room. It remains cool and comfortable and every bed has a blanket plus a quilt or comforter which guests usually need at night.
If you have business to attend to, we have a great Wi-Fi connection, and several work stations. The upstairs double office has a printer that you are welcome to use. And a punee (Hawaiian lounging bed) for relaxing.
Daily housekeeping, private yoga lessons, in-home massage, kayak rentals, and more can be arranged through our concierge. Just ask and we will do our best to help you make the arrangements for your perfect Puako experience!
HULA MOON is a welcoming home where visitors can feel like a local. Join our ohana of happy guests.
HULA MOON is professionally managed by the owner. This is our only property and it shows in our excellent professional staff and attention to details.
This property is compliant with Hawaii Tax Act 326. We collect and pay our Hawaii GET and TAT taxes. Our tax ID number is: 25465279-01.
Please include your PHONE NUMBER when making an inquiry. This is very important to us.
Welcome to the HOME OF THE HULA MOON.
Warmest Aloha
I came to Puako 30 years ago. The homes are larger now, but the community retains its laid-back friendly atmosphere. There is something magical about the Big Island and if you spend a little while in Puako you will feel the 'mana' and aloha spirit of this special location.
Gail or Niki purchased this estate in 2010
This is a beautiful home. Every bedroom and living space has a fabulous ocean view and we have excellent cross ventilation throughout. The pool area is protected so it is warm and sunny. We are not located near a public beach access so our house is very private and more secure.
Puako has the finest sunny and dry climate year round. The reef is healthy and wonderful.
Our home was built so that every bedroom has a gorgeous ocean view. The home is perfect for four couples or for a large family group. There is almost 7000 sq. ft. of indoor/outdoor living so you can always find a private place to relax. We enjoy year-round sunsets and quiet friendly neighbors.
We swim in front of the house with manta rays, and dolphins, and buy fresh fish directly from the fishermen at the nearby harbor. We get freshly baked bread and organic produce at the Waimea farmers' market and buy orchid plants and fresh papayas from a woman down the road.
Home of the Hula Moon will be your own private paradise during your visit to the Big Island. Join our ohana of happy guests.
We agree with all of the other comments in this book- a very special place in paradise! Just perfect for us and our two grandsons. Lots of magic in and around your lovely home. Best wishes to you-
We could not have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate for a week our 50th anniversary. Our children and grandchildren had a GREAT time as well. The turtles were sitting on the rocks sunning themselves. Later in the week there were whales all over, some just outside the breaking waves. We could see them and at times the whales were slapping their tails. It was INCREDIBLE! The pool was fun. The home is perfect in every way. Hula Moon is well appointed. Each room has been carefully decorated with the ocean as a theme. It was a delight to cook in the kitchen and eat outside on the lanai. Our grandchildren loved the "turtle room" and the pool. The beds were super comfortable and the ocean waves lulled us to sleep each night. In other words, it was a DREAM vacation at Hula Moon. We would love to return.
Beautiful home and a stellar location in Puako. We looked on-line at other houses in this area, but we felt very fortunate to have rented this one. This was the best of the best. Very satisfied. We're coming back.
Hula Moon is a stunning house, excellently appointed, excellently maintained. The view from the lanai was breathtaking -- a beautiful lawn sweeping down to the ocean. Lava rock at low tide that the sea turtles climbed up on. Beautiful sunsets every night -- I even saw a green flash!
This was truly one of the best vacations I have ever had. The house is so airy and relaxing. Very comfortable. The beds were great -- and I'm very picky! It just calmed me being there. It had everything I could have possibly wanted. And what a cool, mellow neighborhood. Great snorkeling, and tons of beach choices. The beauty of the house and the setting were unequalled for me. I can't wait to go back there.
It was paradise.
Lucky, Lucky me - I celebrated my 60th birthday with my family at Hula Moon!! The home is perfect - it has everything. Niki was incredibly helpful with directions, activities, and arrangements that included massages and even a chef who prepared my amazing birthday dinner.
Secluded, yet close to shopping, restaurants and tourist attractions. We are already planning our next stay at Hula Moon!
I've been to the Big Island many times, and I have to say that this is an exceptional property - beautifully maintained, quiet and very comfortable. We wanted for nothing and enjoyed everything about it! There was plenty of room for our family of 10 to spread out and relax. The home is so well appointed - it's apparent that a lot of thought and care went into preparing this property for rental. The showers are a special treat! Our children had lots of fun snorkeling, exploring the tide pools and watching the turtles from the back yard. I would highly recommend this property, and we sincerely hope to return to the beautiful Home of the Hula Moon soon! Mahalo!!!
We are soooo happy that we picked the Home Of The Hula Moon in Puako. It was hard to decide, there were several big houses, but we made the right choice for us and we LOVE this place!! Big house, big rooms, big views, big fun. Loved every minute and found it hard to ever leave. House is even better in person. Super helpful owners and staff. We are already planning a return trip for 2015. Thank you, thank you.
Oh yes ... thanks for the views of the dolphins from the deck!!! Wow.
Puako is quite possibly the sunniest spot on the Big Island. Blessed with a dry climate and pristine water, Puako remains a top destination for travellers seeking a perfect beach location. The Puako reef is alive with fish, green sea turtles, eagle and manta rays, dolphins, and whales during the winter season. Early Polynesians considered it a spot with strong 'mana' or spirit, and carved numerous petroglyphs in the fields near our home. Surfers love the winter surf at nearby Paniau, a five minute walk from our home, and children will love the tide pools where the sea turtles rest each evening. Puako is a family neighborhood which was originally homesteaded in the 1950's. The Aloha Spirit is strong and you will love being part of this small friendly community. Puako is a short 25 minute drive north of the KONA Airport. Exclusive resorts with spas, restaurants, tennis and golf courses are a 10 minute drive from Puako. Relax or do everything!
Other Activities: Walk-in scuba diving is a 5 minute walk from our home.
Great snorkeling on the Puako Reef.
Hiking trails.
Lovely sandy beaches nearby.
Yoga/massage/spa services nearby.
Golf: Beautiful golf courses at the Mauna Kea and Mauna Lani and other nearby resorts that are a ten minute drive from here.

The New Baldor•Dodge Pre-lubricated GRID-LIGN Coupling Maximizes Productivity, Minimizes Downtime
Fort Smith, Ark. – Baldor Electric Company, a Fort Smith, Arkansas-based manufacturer of energy-saving, industrial electric motors, drives, mechanical power transmission products and generators, introduces the Baldor•Dodge pre-lubricated GRID-LIGN coupling, a maintenance-free, lubed-for-life design that eliminates the time and expense associated with preventive maintenance. Interchangeable with existing grids, hubs and covers, this product is easy to install with no mess, and eliminates unexpected downtime associated with improper coupling lubrication.
The unique, environmentally friendly design of the pre-lubricated GRID-LIGN coupling features high-performance synthetic oil impregnated into a polymer shell that encapsulates the grid element. This polymer shell allows for efficient, long-lasting lubrication throughout the life of the coupling. The polymer acts as a reservoir for the oil that prevents contamination during installation and avoids the mess required with greasing a traditional grid design.
The coupling not only includes the optimal amount of lubrication for the life of the element, but the synthetic oil used actually improves the lubricating performance of the grid segment during operation. Baldor•Dodge pre-lubricated GRID- LIGN coupling components are interchangeable with competitive tapered-style grid couplings. Interchangeability includes use with complete vertically or horizontally split covers and half or full spacers.
This new product can be specified via the online Dodge coupling selection program. Go to dodge-pt.com, select "online tools" and click PT Wizard. Following a login, select "product selection" and click "coupling." The coupling selection program is user-friendly and gives customers the opportunity to customize the coupling selection to their exact application needs.

BS Skilled immigrants are only more profit in the pockets of major companies and wage deprevation to domestic workers. This is a FARCE!!! Micro-soft wants more cheap asian laborers to replace the more expensive domestic ones.

Bullshit. How many scientist and engineers are out of work? We are a huge country 300 million people and the best universities.

What?!? Those companies *were* founded in the US, under current policy! That's doubletalk if ever I heard it. As for the rest of it, we've all heard of the gaming that goes on with skilled worker Visas. Companies use H1Bs to drive down wages here in the US, by employing foreign nationals on work Visas. It's common practice in the Sili Valley, unfortunately. |

Goldman Offers Hedge Funds to the 99%
Private equity giants Blackstone Group (BX - Get Report), Carlyle Group (CG) and KKR (KKR - Get Report) have recently announced the intent to bring their investing approach to retirement accounts, albeit with higher minimum investments.
Goldman's alternative investment mutual fund also comes as the bank pares its own investment in private equity and hedge funds to comply with post-financial crisis regulations.
For instance, the Volcker Rule, a crucial piece of the 2010 Dodd Frank Act, significantly limits the amount of capital the firm can put into private equity and hedge funds.
In the first quarter, Goldman significantly beat earnings estimates on $1 billion in private equity investment gains and another $1 billion in write-ups of principal debt and equity trading positions.
Investors, however, appeared to discount the $2.1 billion in revenue Goldman earned from the bank's so-called "Investing & Lending" unit, amid uncertainty about the sustainability of such earnings. The $2.1 billion figure accounted for about 21% of Goldman's first quarter revenue. Goldman's Investing & Lending unit holds $57.2 billion in assets, according to the firm's 2012 10-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. -- Written by Antoine Gara in New York Follow @AntoineGaraCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

Attorney Chris Cawood got some good news a few days before Christmas. He came out victorious in his latest legal battle with the Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility. The board sought to have Cawood disciplined for a sexual tryst he had with two women in his law office. The board's own hearing panel and a judge determined no discipline was warranted. Instead of dropping the matter, the board appealed to the Tennessee Supreme Court.
New Year's Eve, 1999.
It was an uncertain time in my life, and not just because of the looming new millennium.
I had left Chicago and was transitioning out of a two-year freelance stint that hadn't lived up to my expectations. Now I was tying up those lose ends and holding a temp job in the law firm of a large electric utility.
As I sat around the TV with my brothers on that long-ago New Year's Eve, my edginess wasn't just over whether planes might fall out of the sky.
TVA employees are providing food, gifts and other donations to children and families in need across the TVA service area this holiday season. Kingston Fossil Plant employees gave food boxes to 24 families of children at Dyllis Elementary School near Harriman. The staff at Bull Run Fossil Plant provided gifts for 32 children at Claxton Elementary School in Powell and delivered food baskets to 25 families.
Gone is the big cloud of steam over the Kingston Fossil Plant that had become a symbol of cleaner air over much of the Southeast. It has been replaced with the nastier, albeit less obvious, emissions from the plant's twin stacks. All this is a result of TVA's leaky gypsum containment pond.
Folks here at the office work hard to get information to you. They also know they're more than welcome to share a lighter moment when we push past a deadline and put another issue to bed. We call it "decompression time." It's when we take a healthy breath and step back from our deadline-driven lives. It is in those moments that we remember we're fellow sojourners along life's highway. Banter ranges across many subjects and disciplines.
Ponds aren't always the final resting place for gypsum produced at TVA's coal-fired power plants. John Kammeyer, TVA's vice president of coal combustion products, said the gypsum produced at the Cumberland Fossil Plant is sold and used to make wallboard. "Here at Kingston, it's being pumped out to this big pond," Kammeyer said. That was before the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation ordered TVA to stop using the gypsum pond. A leak was discovered in the pond on Dec. 15.
Roane Countians got to revel in a white Christmas on Saturday — even if it was only for a while. Snow fell across the county. David Hotz, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service Office in Morristown, said the amounts varied throughout East Tennessee. "Roane County, I think, was more between like 1 to 2 inches," he said. "I think maybe the southern part of Roane County picked up a little bit more than that. If you go down to Chattanooga, they had more like between 4 and 6 inches."

The emergence of religious fundamentalism, often linked to terrorism, seems wholly inconsistent with the teaching of the Quran and the other holy

The FDA and USDA split food safety responsibilities currently. A total of 12 agencies enforce about 30 different laws.
FDA officials estimate consumers will lose up to $5.27 billion in 'lost pleasure' over the next two decades as a result of calorie counts on restaurant menus.
It's been a long time coming, but calorie counts will be arriving on menu boards at restaurants, groceries, theaters and most places that sell fresh food.

Can egg-less mayonnaise really be called "mayo?" Unilever, maker of Hellmann's mayonnaise, is taking the issue to court.
As the number of nano food products continues to surge, watchdogs say their dangers are still poorly understood and the FDA's new guidelines lack teeth.
A Cincinnati woman was alarmed to discover the ice cream she serves her family doesn't melt. How does the FDA define "ice cream" anyway?
The FDA's proposal to include "added sugar" to the Nutrition Facts label has sparked cheers from health advocates and fierce opposition from food companies.
Some food companies are changing recipes behind the scenes to comply with health recommendations, but they're doing it quietly for fear of losing business.
Increasingly, farm businesses are starting as operations intended to provide produce for schools and other institutional markets in the local area.
The European Union has clamped down on an anti-browning chemical, effectively banning the import of apples and pears from the U.S. and Canada.
Four years after the FDA first considered a proposal to raise genetically modified salmon, no decision has been made. What gives?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is approaching food-borne illness in a different way -- by mapping the DNA of harmful bacteria.
A watchdog reveals key flaws in new FDA guidelines designed to reduce the use of antibiotics to fatten livestock.
Organic farmers are raising opposition to FDA food safety rules that will put the squeeze on small-production farms.
Nutrition science has changed over the past 20 years, but nutrition labels on food haven't — until now.
Use of antibiotics to grow farm animals has been blamed for growing antibiotic resistance in humans across the United States. New rules could help curb that.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has taken steps to ban harmful artificial trans fats, a move health advocates welcome.
A new provision in the health care law mandates chain restaurants to post the calories in each menu item.
New research from UC Davis suggests that our brains automatically regulate salt intake, casting doubt on calls for Americans to cut salt consumption.

Study: Republican primaries polarize. Democratic primaries don't.
Are moderates more likely to lose primaries? Not particularly, say the political scientists at VoteView. The 19 incumbents who have lost primary challenges since 2006 — 11 Republicans and 8 Democrats, in case you're wondering — were slightly more moderate than their counterparts in Congress. But not much.
More interesting, however, is the voting records of their replacements. Six of them couldn't be assessed because they lost in the general election. But of the five challengers who defeated incumbent Democrats and went on to serve in Congress, two were more liberal their predecessor, two were more conservative, and one voted pretty much the same. Of the eight Republican challengers who won the election, six proved more conservative than their predecessor, and only two were more liberal.
In other words, Republican primaries served to push the party to the right, while Democratic primaries didn't. And remember: These numbers don't include conservative primary challenges that helped convince Republican moderates to drop out, like the one Olympia Snowe faced in Maine, or that pushed the incumbent to switch parties, like the one faced by Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania or Lisa Murkowski in Alaska, or primary challenges that were unexpectedly close and so scared the incumbent into voting in a more conservative fashion both before and after the race.
The Republican primaries are, in other words, sending a clear message to Republican incumbents about what they must do to protect themselves from future primary challenges. In that way, one defeated incumbent can change the voting patterns of three dozen incumbents who think they could be vulnerable in the next election.
"This provides a partial explanation for polarizing trends in Congress," writes the VoteView team. As you can see in their graph, which I've posted above, Republicans have moved much further to the right than Democrats have moved to the left, and there's been a sharp spike in Republican polarization over the past few years, which is the period of time in which these primaries have been happening.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

New Hampshire voting tonight for Republican GOP candidate
NBC NATIONAL NEWS — The votes are finally being cast tonight in New Hampshire.
Based on pre-vote polling, Mitt Romney looks like the sure winner, but who comes in second and third and emerge as the top Romney challengers will be a big story.
Former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman surged to third in New Hampshire's final tracking poll.
He's looking at the next primary.
"South Carolina will light up because we will have proved that very important point of electability," Huntsman predicted.
Surveys showed Ron Paul in second place before the actual vote, but many eyes are on Rick Santorum, who nearly won in iowa.
Will he emerge as the top conservative?
Or will Newt Gingrich regain his spot as the alternative to Romney?
Romney assumes he'll win here, but a weakness emerged when he said "I like being able to fire people who provide services to me" during an appearance on Monday.
He meant insurance companies, but Romney rivals claim he'd admitted he got rich raiding weak companies and laying off workers.
"Waiting for the company to get sick and then they swoop in, they eat the carcass," Rick Perry said of Bain Capital, Romney's former firm.
If Romney wins, he'll be the first non-incumbent Republican ever to win New Hampshire after winning Iowa.

What are other SF2 owners finding battery life to be? For me, it's really poor. I might get through a working day without needing to charge up but today, it was down to 20% by 3pm and I haven't used it much, just emails and a little internet. Not even any phone calls. Wifi seems to be taking a lot of battery and I'm not even using it during the day (although I haven't been turning it off, it's not something I've had to do with previous phones or my iPod). I don't really want to have to turn it off and on gain when I need to use it. That's a lot of hassle! I have seen mixed reports about battery life for the original SF, maybe I have a bad one? Rgrds
I'm getting about a day and a half per charge, depends how much I've been using it, so that would be an average. Usually get more than a full 24 hours though
That's way better than I get - maybe I've overdone the apps I've downloaded and have running. I'm amazed at how much seems to be running when I check in the apllicataion manager. Why does maps need to be running, for instance? I've no idea how much juice each of the processes and services is actually using . Wifi seemed quite hungry and, as I don't have wifi access at work, I tend to turn it off. That seems to help. Thanks for the reports - it helps. Rgrds
Some apps take more juice than others. Lots of apps run in the background seemingly pointlessly. I think there are some good tips in the SF1 area to help with battery life. I've recently seen some tips on getting the most of your battery too.. Over charging and resetting the level guage with an app.
I've had a mixed bag with the SF2 battery. For the first week I thought it was atrocious, I could barely get a day out of it, but it seems to have bedded in a little and I'm getting just about 2 days out of it now, so it's acceptable. It's nowhere near as good as the original SF, which could get by for 3 days (or a nearly week on standby, using Swedish_Spring). I'm going to get rid of the stock ROM, as I'm convinced the Orange bloatware doesn't help (though to be fair it doesn't seem as intrusive as the SF1). I think that 3G data connectivity seems to use a more power than WiFi, so if you have WiFi available, turn it on and you'll save more battery power like that.
I'm new to the forum, could you tell me where you saw that? Mine lasts 24 hours & I only use it for phoning & texting, it loses charge overnight!
I unlocked my SFII on Friday 23rd when I got it, its now debranded and running the full version of Power Manager, so I can turn on/off stuff at will and it allows me to set my own profiles. Recently I emptied both caches and after allowing my phone to get to a full 100% charge I them emptied the battery stats in the Restore screen. At this point I had to let it get flat normally and not charge it until it was at the critical stage. I used the phone and to be honest unintentionally hammered it with installs, program usage and generally messing about with my son who is 100 miles away and comparing stuff. Rebuilding the caches the first time cost me 10% power Wi Fi hammers it, but then 3-4 hours on is not bad, a case of use it when you need it I put Tango video chat on for me and my son, that hammers it the most-but expected Standby overnight resulted in only 1% loss which is acceptable. 16 hours later and still a good 55-60% left !!! But then we hammered it some more and I got 24 hours out of it before it went critical and I plugged in the USB cable again. From this I infer 1-2 days of normal use and I feel a lot more comfortable about it now. After all, this is a GPS enabled phone with Sat/Nav capability, video conferencing with both front and back cam, Bar Coder, Email, Wi Fi etc. Mine runs Quake 1, Quake 2, Real Racing 2 and lots lots more. The original San Fran was a 600 CPU, the newer SFII is an 800 CPU and that takes more oomph! All in all I know I got a bargain and I`m well pleased with it. I use Power Manager (62p) to control the settings I want, a licensed Titanium (
There are lots of guides around. Here's a good one: Battery Recalibration ProTip - Android @ MoDaCo If you don't have clockwork mod installed some of the rom tools will reset the stats fully booted. All methods need root access afair. Thing is what do you have running and are you considering the effect on your battery? If you're leaving on wireless all day when you're not using it for example... same with apps etc you have running. It goes without saying: If you want to extend battery life between charges you need to be running only what you need.
