Expert Tips to Get Kids in the Kitchen
Could Your Children's Meal Make Them Sick?
More than 12.5 million U.S. children are overweight and face chronic disease. But it's tough to make healthy meals for kids when they're screaming for fries or ice cream. Are you setting your child up for trouble? Read on for 10 ways to get your kids to eat better…
Today's parents are up against the biggest food fight of any previous generation.
Everywhere you look, more junk foods and sugary drinks are available to our children, and there are more kid-targeted food commercials on TV.
"The No. 1 'vegetable' the average 18-month-old consumes in the U.S. is French fries," says Christina Schmidt, M.S., a certified nutrition educator and author of
The Baby Bistro
The Toddler Bistro
(Bull Publishing Co.).
What's worse: Many parents don't see a problem.
"Parents don't get it," says William H. Dietz, M.D., director of the Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Only 42% of parents cite childhood obesity as a health concern, according to the 2007 National Poll on Children's Health by C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Some don't know the nutritional content of the food they serve. Others don't want to be the "bad guy" and force fruits and veggies on finicky eaters.
Yet childhood obesity can shorten life expectancy by up to five years and lead to heart disease, type 2 diabetes and some cancers, Dr. Dietz says.
One 2010 study published in the
International Journal of Pediatric Obesity
also found that obese children with big bellies are at greater risk for future heart problems.
"Seventy percent of obese children today already have one cardiovascular risk factor, such as elevated blood pressure," Dr. Dietz says.
What's fueling this obesity epidemic? Not enough exercise, for one. Plus, too much face time with TVs and computers, which experts say are linked.
As a result of this media overload, children ask for foods they see in ads, Dr. Dietz says.
That's why parents have to step in.
"No matter how strong outside influences are, what we do at home is stronger," says Nancy Tringali Piho, author of
My Two-Year-Old Eats Octopus: Raising Children Who Love to Eat Everything
(Bull Publishing Co.).
Here are 10 tips to encourage healthy eating for children:
1. Don't defer authority.
"Don't ask your child what he'd like to eat," Dr. Dietz advises. They'll say "gummy worms" or "ice cream."
Instead, tell them what's on the menu and that there will be no substitutions.
"Parents have to remember they're parents," says chef Ann Cooper, author of
Lunch Lessons: Changing the Way We Feed Our Children
(Collins Living). Your job is to provide nourishing foods; your child's role is to eat them and reap the nutritional benefits.
2. Don't offer too many choices.
Making hot dogs for one kid, mac 'n' cheese for another and a "grown-up" meal for Mom and Dad will drive a home cook crazy.
"Parents shouldn't be running short-order restaurants," Cooper says. Plan one menu for the entire family.
But ask your children for their opinion. Broccoli or green beans? Or serve them both.
"Offering two or three choices of a fruit or vegetable encourages kids to try at least one of them," says
Baby Bistro
author Schmidt.
3. Set limits.
The worst thing for a child is not knowing the limits or having ones that constantly change, Dr. Dietz says.
Every kid needs boundaries, so stand your ground when it comes to what your child eats. If on Monday you proclaim "no fast food," don't go to Burger King on Friday. It sends mixed messages and kids quickly pick up on that ambiguity.
Also, don't set limits you can't – and shouldn't – keep, like banning all foods with sugar. There's just no way around a little sweet stuff in a kid's life – and there shouldn't have to be.
Experts agree: "Everything in moderation."
Even after you've set boundaries, expect them to be tested – repeatedly. Just stand your ground.
4. Expose kids to an assortment of foods.
"One mistake parents make is not exposing [their kids] to a wide variety of foods and flavors from an early age," Tringali Piho says.
Start small and build on each success. Forgo the white-bread PB&J; offer up cucumber and hummus on whole wheat instead. Your kids' taste buds might surprise you both.
Also, make learning about new chow a game. Let your children discover a new food – through books, the Internet or from friends. Then help them prepare it.
"Kids love to be hands-on with everything they're learning," Schmidt says. The more they're involved, the more likely they are to eat happily.
5. Don't worry they'll go to bed hungry.
Hunger can be a persuasive learning tool. Next time your children refuse to eat what you've prepared, tell them: "The choices are to eat it now, later or nothing at all," Schmidt says.
"Unless children learn that they'll be hungry if they don't eat, they won't learn to eat what's offered," Dr. Dietz says.
If your children push away the food, be matter-of-fact about it, he says. Simply put the plate aside, so they can eat it later.
This may be harder on parents. It's never fun to watch your children cry and scream. And you don't want them to go to bed hungry.
But they'll learn to make a better choice next time:
I guess I'll
just eat the salmon patty. Hey, this tastes kind of good!
6. Don't make excuses for their eating habits.
"If kids are labeled as picky, they'll act that way," Schmidt says.
Instead, be persistent. Offer up the despised foods as many times and in as many forms as possible. Broccoli hater? Try it steamed, roasted, baked in a quiche, chopped up with a low-fat dip or served with veggie sticks.
7. Don't worry that they're not eating enough.
When a child has consumed only three graham crackers all day, it can drive a parent to force them to eat.
The strategy will backfire, Dr. Dietz says.
"There's no quicker way to get a child
to eat than by forcing him or her to eat," he says. Even if your child has barely touched food all day, don't worry.
"Children regulate their nutrition intake surprisingly well," Schmidt says.
They learn to recognize their natural hunger and satiety cues. "Forcing them to eat destroys these healthy instincts."
Children go through natural periods of eating very little or eating more than you'd expect. It's normal and linked to their growth cycles. But if you're concerned, talk to your pediatrician about whether a multivitamin will provide the nutrition they need.
8. Don't disguise healthful foods.
recognize zucchini if it showed up only in muffins or cookies? Sneaking extra veggies into prepared products isn't bad, but it's important to offer them in their natural state too.
"If we keep those green veggies under wraps all the time, children will never choose them in their true [form]," Schmidt says.
Get to the root of the situation – literally.
"If we want to change children's relationship to food, we have to get kids involved in cooking, gardening and grocery shopping," chef Cooper says.
Grow veggies in a garden pot or plot. Or go to a nearby you-pick-it farm. When children see where food comes from and help get it from farm to table, they'll appreciate it more.
It helps instill a sense of ownership in what they're eating – "I picked that strawberry!" or "I grew that tomato!"
9. Don't offer rewards or bribes for eating.
Bribery is another trick nearly every parent uses – but shouldn't.
"Don't reward children for eating foods they don't like by giving them junk foods," Dr. Dietz says. That means not dishing out ice cream because they've finished the spinach.
Sure, you're enticing kids to eat the good stuff, but it will just make mealtime more difficult for you. Before long,
be bribing
with, "I'll only eat it if I can have a sno-cone!"
10. Keep trying.
"Parents need to repeatedly introduce new food before accepting that their child doesn't like it," Dr. Dietz says.
A scrunched-up face or barfing noise doesn't mean game over.
"It takes eight to 15 times for a child to accept a new food," Schmidt says.
Most parents give up after two or three tries.
Vary your approach and be creative with presentation, Schmidt suggests. Cut foods into fun shapes (like zucchini stars), make mini versions of their favorites or call foods by nicknames.
Finally, don't expect good eating habits to be a piece of cake.
"Success is not defined as 'no conflict,'" Tringali Piho says. "No one ever said it will be easy!"

The Five Dumbest Things on Wall Street This Week: June 22
5. Body's Repeat Performance
Like the TV networks, Wall Street is filling the summer void by programming reruns. And we're not simply talking about European bailouts and broken internet IPOs perpetually popping up on trading screens either.
Take Body Central's (BODY) ridiculous repeat performance for example.
The women's apparel retailer slashed its second-quarter outlook Monday as a result of weak sales trends and a bloated inventory, causing its stock to collapse by 49% to $8.66. Body Central cut its second-quarter earnings forecast to 19 to 21 cents per share from a range of 26 to 28 cents, and says it now expects second-quarter net revenue of $77 million to $79 million, down from $80 million to $82 million. "We continue to diligently manage inventory and to take aggressive markdowns on slow moving items," said CEO Allen Weinstein in a statement. Wait a second there Weinstein! Didn't we see this same exact episode not too long ago? Oh yeah! That's right. Just last month Body Central lowered its profit and sales guidance, surprising the Street and causing its shares to sink 49% in the process. Here's what Weinstein said back in May when the stock took its last shellacking: "We are closely monitoring our inventory levels and content." Here's what we said at the time: "Seriously, not since Rocky broke Apollo Creed's rib have we seen a crowd favorite suffer such a massive gut-shot." Another month, another body blow for Body Central. Time to change the channel folks because, quite sadly, we've seen this show before.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Audio: New Single "I Wish" from G-DO & Xception
"I Wish" is the first single from G-DO & Xception's new album 2030. "I Wish" initiates the listener through a burst of kicks keeping the pace, laced with an eerie bass and graginharp (created in 2022) to create a deep groove of movement and attention. Xception is right there from the first beat almost daring you to come along on the ride. Immediately, his flow hits as hard as the beat, but like the beat, falls into a brooding groove and carries through with a collage of 2030's trip straight through the end of the track - when the transmutation actually begins. The track is available below, on the G-DO & Xception Bandcamp page, iTunes, and Spotify. Stay tuned here and to the duo's facebook page for more as we move closer to the release of 2030.

NCF On The Trail: Alex Bookser
The Panthers are waiting to hear from ESPN 300 defensive back Montae Nicholson (Monroeville, Pa./Gateway) on Thursday and three-star Shai McKenzie (Washington, Pa./Washington) on Friday. Wholly unexpected was four-star and No. 149 prospect Alex Bookser (Pittsburgh, Pa./Mount Lebanon) committing to Chryst and the Panthers late Wednesday.
Scouts' Take: Pitt adds another OL piece

So with signing day closer than it appears in college football's mirrors, here are 10 storylines in the ACC to watch between now and Feb. 5.
1. Who will sign the ACC's top class?
To continue reading this article you must be an Insider
Most important targets: ACC
Boston College
DE Harold Landry (Fayetteville, N.C./Pine Forest)
6-foot-3, 230 pounds
Four stars
Boston College is close to done for 2014, and coach Steve Addazio is looking toward taking the next big recruiting jump with the 2015 class. However, the Eagles' 2014 class would be dealt a devastating blow if he cannot hold on to Landry, No. 30 among defensive ends nationally and the second-highest-rated commit in BC's class. Reports in mid-October had Landry decommitting from the Eagles, but it was only for a short while. He made amends with the staff quickly and rejoined BC. But now coaches are coming through schools and homes, so BC will have its work cut out once again.

Weekend recruiting wrap: Big Ten
The Big Ten championship was the main focus this week, but that just gave coaches extra time to put in on the recruiting trail. Here is a look at what happened around the conference over the weekend.

Questions for signing day: ACC
It is a chicken or the egg argument. Has the SEC ruled college football for much of the last decade because the conference annually places five or more teams among the top 10 of the recruiting rankings? Or is the SEC's recruiting dominance a result of seven straight national championships?
The ACC, though, could be the David to the SEC on the field and in recruiting. In the 2014 cycle, two ACC schools have top-five classes. Will that remain the same come signing day?
We look at that question and nine others as we examine the most pressing ACC recruiting questions leading up to signing day.
1. Will FSU and Miami remain in the top five of the class rankings?
Both classes are close to completion, so it could be tough for the Noles and Canes to finish in the top five of the rankings. Alabama is at No. 1 and could end up running away with another recruiting title. The rest of the SEC will charge hard come signing day, too. Tennessee should be a safe bet to finish in the top five, and programs such as Florida, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss and more could break into the exclusive group come February. Tennessee recently jumped both schools, pushing Florida State to No. 3 and Miami to No. 4.
2. Can Miami surpass Florida State for the ACC's top class?
If both were to fall out of the top five, there is still some pride in finishing with the top class in the conference. The Noles are ahead of the Canes at the moment, and it will be tough for the Canes to jump FSU. It looks as if Miami has two spots left and should finish with Johnnie Dixon and Anthony Moten. But the Noles could sign more than 30, and some of the country's truly elite prospects have Florida State among their finalists. It looks doubtful that Miami -- or any ACC team -- will catch and pass Jimbo Fisher's class.
Sitting at No. 12 in the rankings, the Tigers have a good chance to finish in the top 10 and even an outside chance to crack the top seven. Defensive end Lorenzo Featherston (Greensboro, N.C./Page) is No. 27 in the ESPN 300 and a Clemson lean. It would be a surprise to see him land anywhere but with the Tigers. Cornerback D.J. Smith (Marietta, Ga./Walton), No. 88 in the ESPN 300, also looks to be leaning Clemson's way, and the same could be said for defensive end Andrew Williams (McDonough, Ga./Eagles Christian Landing), No. 168 in the rankings. The prize of the defensive class would be five-star inside linebacker Raekwon McMillan, however. He is slated to visit officially later this month, and the No. 12 player and top linebacker in 2014 has the Tigers among his top three.
4. Can Pitt close out with three of its four Western Pennsylvania targets?
For Pitt's class to be considered a success, Paul Chryst needs to do just that. The Panthers are struggling some with Pittsburgh-area prospects in 2014, but the same happened in 2013 before Pitt landed Dorian Johnson and Tyler Boyd. In February, the Panthers hope to land Dravon Henry (Aliquippa, Pa./Aliquippa), Alex Bookser (Pittsburgh/Mt. Lebanon), Montae Nicholson (Monroeville, Pa./Gateway) and Shai McKenzie (Washington, Pa./Washington); Henry, Bookser and Nicholson are all in the ESPN 300 and have Pitt among their finalists. Henry is a Pitt legacy. Bookser looks to be focused on Ohio State and Pitt; Nicholson will decide in December and is projected to Pitt.
5. Will Duke sign an ESPN 300 prospect?
The Blue Devils have never signed an ESPN 150 or ESPN 300 prospect since the rankings began almost a decade ago. That was going to change in 2014 with quarterback Nicodem Pierre (Miami/Coral Reef), but the dual-threat dropped from the ESPN 300 in October. However, Trevon Lee (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla./Cardinal Gibbons) could be leaning Duke's way with the Blue Devils on a roll this season. With a guaranteed winning regular season -- their first in nearly two decades -- Lee is thinking hard about Duke. Academics are big for the 241st-ranked player, so a decision could come down to Duke and Vanderbilt.

Questions for signing day: Big Ten
It's never too early to talk about signing day, especially with so many questions currently unanswered on the recruiting trail. Big unknowns remain for the Big Ten conference, so here are 10 questions leading up to signing day.
1. Last year, Ohio State finished with the No. 3 class in the nation. Can it happen again?

Pitt makes statement to recruits with win
In front of one of the best atmospheres since the Panthers moved to Heinz Field, they upset No. 23 Notre Dame -- and made an impression on a number of key recruits who were at the game.

Pitt looks to follow Miami's blueprint
Miami has made its way to the top third of the ACC behind the success of a new coach and his recruiting, and Pitt hopes to do the same under second-year coach Paul Chryst. The Panthers are looking to finish strong in 2014, and this weekend could go a long way toward doing that.
The Hurricanes are still not where they want to be following a second-half shellacking at the hands of rival Florida State last weekend. A win Saturday night, however, and the Hurricanes essentially lock up a rematch with the Seminoles in the ACC title game, which would help regain some power in the three-way recruiting tug-of-war in Florida.
Here are five recruits who will be keeping a close eye on the Notre Dame-Pitt game and five more who will be watching Virginia Tech-Miami.
Notre Dame at Pitt
ATH Dravon Henry (Aliquippa, Pa./Aliquippa): It is not often the Panthers miss out on prospects from nearby Aliquippa, and Henry is related to former Pitt standouts Darrelle Revis and Sean Gilbert. The two-way star is a West Virginia lean, however. The Mountaineers have been out front for Henry for quite some time and the lead is expanding. This could be the type of game that finally brings Pitt a little bit closer to the top spot. Henry, No. 136 in the ESPN 300, will take official visits after the season, and he acknowledges the pressure to go to Pitt will increase as signing day nears. A positive showing by the Panthers on Saturday could go a long way in easing some of that pressure on the state's top player. One problem: Henry will be at West Virginia.

1. Michigan, 15 commits: The Wolverines are No. 6 in the RecruitingNation class rankings, which includes nine ESPN300 prospects -- among them headliner and No. 2 overall Jabrill Peppers (Paramus, N.J./Paramus Catholic High). Michigan could make a move into the top-5 by winning the race for No. 4 Da'Shawn Hand (Woodbridge, Va./Woodbridge High).

Big Ten 2014 recruiting scenarios
There are still a ton of prospects on the board for Big Ten teams, so conference recruiting reporters Tom VanHaaren and Brad Bournival take a look at the best and worst case scenarios remaining for each team.
Best-case scenario: Illinois picked up an offensive line commit on Monday with Peter Cvijanovic (Great Barrington, Mass./East Coast Prep), which gives the Illini two offensive line commits. Despite having four wide receiver commits on board, it looks like the staff would take another receiver in this class.

Hope for the best but prepare for the worst. That is what college coaches must do when it comes to recruiting. Every coach would love to land their top target at every position, but coaches are forced to play the what-ifs and continue to recruit prospects lower on the recruiting board. With signing day a few months away and several classes close to completion, college staffs are pushing for those few final targets but also keeping a watchful eye on players down the board.
Here are the best- and worst-case scenarios for each of the ACC schools.

Bryan Cranston's Ominous GODZILLA Speech, an Empire Cover, and a Waveform of the Roar
By Dan Casey on February 24, 2014
In case the ear-shattering majesty of Godzilla's roar wasn't enough to get you excited for the Gareth Edwards-directed Godzilla film, then a) who are you and b) you're in luck because the film's Facebook page dropped a double dose of teaser-y goodness this afternoon in the form of a waveform video of the iconic roar and something a little more ominous.
The official Godzilla Facebook page also linked to a new section of the film's website, godzillamovie.com/awakenthetruth, an ominous black-and-red splash page with audio of a very angry Bryan Cranston yelling about how something terrible is coming and one line of text: "2.25.14 10:00AM PST". Chances are that we'll be treated to a brand new Godzilla trailer when the countdown strikes zero, but I'd also be totally on board with an I Love Bees-style ARG. (Editor's note: Or something like this.) Regardless, expect a lot of browsers to be frantically refreshed come tomorrow morning
And if all of that didn't get your kaijuices flowing, then check out this awesome Godzilla cover from Empire.
Are you excited for Godzilla? Let us know in the comments below.
HELL FREAKING YAH!!! I grew up watching the Godzilla movies on TV on Saturday and Sunday afternoons and even made it through the Emmerich version. I just really hope that they do the franchise right with this one; so far from what little they have shown, I don't think we will be disappointed.
Can't wait any longer, hopefully it surpasses the 1998 film in every way
If that movie were to be cancelled before it hit theaters, it would surpass the 1998 version in every conceivable way.
And that waveform looked more like the spines on Gojira's back than the roar.
Kaiju has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. It's what brought me and fiancé together in a "MST3k" kind of way. Now to have an American version that Toho will be proud of just gives me goose bumps. When I saw the teaser more than a year ago with Oppenhiemer saying "We knew the world would not be the same. Few people laughed, few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." I truly shed a tear.
I want a poster of that magazine cover on my wall.
[…] expected from yesterday's deluge of Godzilla goodness, Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. have unveiled the new […]

Just to quickly rehash, the problem is that freetype removed the ft_is* macros from one of the public headers. If you were compiling an executable that was trying to use these macros, the compiler would just barf immediately because they would be unresolved symbols. However, when you build a library, the compiler and linker assume that unresolved symbols will just be resolved at runtime from some other library. In this case, the missing ft_is* macros don't become a problem until trying to build the bdftopcf executable. If you want to trigger this right away, set LDFLAGS="-Wl,--no-undefined" when building libXfont-1.2.8. We fixed this in libXfont by replacing the ft_isdigit macro by the ctype equivalent. Now, the question is whether any other freetype-using library or application uses any of the ft_is* macros. I'm gonna lean towards no. It's been over a year since freetype removed those macros, and there's been no mention that I can see on their mailing list. Furthermore, if there are other packages where this becomes a problem, it will be very easy to identify and fix the problem now that the issue is understood. So, I'd say, make the update. Fixing security vulnerabilities and bugs is probably more important than worrying about this silly API break that apparently no one else cares about. -- Dan

Review: Simple Color Chooser uses intuitive controls to make choosing a color easy
Swipe and slide your finger to find the perfect shade with this great color-picking iOS app.
Simple Color Chooser offers exactly what its name implies -- a very easy way of checking colors and choosing one for your project. The developer has a keen understanding of user needs, including a full range of color codes and hexes along with a streamlined method for choosing that color on the screen. What at first looks like a pretty stripped-down app is actually one of the better color pickers we've seen on the App Store.
After installing Simple Color Chooser, you can select the color range you want to look through -- red, blue, or green. From there, just slide your finger up or down the screen and the background color will change accordingly, running through that range of colors. As the colors change, so too do the codes listed on the screen. If you find the perfect color, you instantly have every possible color code you would need to use in your project. This app, while not particularly attractive at first glance and lacking additional features beyond its core offering, is a great example of streamlined design. It just plain works.
If you need a color-picking app for your iPhone that will provide every possible code you could need, Simple Color Chooser is a great option. It works seamlessly as you slide between different color ranges and at any time you can save the screen you are on and access it from a list of recently saved favorites. It's a great tool for developers or designers, alike.

Further to our previous story on a Kindle reader's library being wiped by Amazon, Stephen K. has posted an update (as comment), which deserves to be its own story.
From Computer World UK Simon Phipps continues the saga of Linn, the Norwegian individual who purchased a Kindle in the UK.
The story first emerged on a friend's blog, where a sequence of e-mails from Michael Murphy, a customer support representative at Amazon.co.uk were posted. These painted a picture some interpreted as Amazon remotely erasing a customer's Kindle, but in conversation with Linn I discovered that was not what had happened - something just as bad did, though.
Linn lives in Norway, where Amazon does not operate (Amazon.no redirects to the Amazon Europe page). She bought a Kindle in the UK, liked it and read a number of books on it. She then gave that Kindle to her mother, and bought a used Kindle on a Danish classifieds site to which she transferred her account. She has been happily reading on it for some time, purchasing her books with a Norwegian address and credit card. She told me she'd read 30 or 40 books on it.
Sadly, the device developed a fault (actually a second time, it was also replaced in 2011 for the same reason) and started to display black lines on the screen (something I've heard from other friends as it happens). She called Amazon customer service, and they agreed to replace it if she returned it, although they insisted on shipping the replacement to a UK address rather to her in Norway.
More from Computer World UK.
From Mashable, a report on library use by young people.
According to a study by the Pew Research Center published Tuesday, 16-29 year olds are reading more often, largely because of the mass amounts of e-content that is available to them on mobile devices. They're not just reading short blips of content, either — people under 30 are reading more long-form content on their smartphones and tablets, but also continuing to visit their local libraries.
Eight in 10 Americans ages 16-29 read a book this past year, and more than six out of 10 used their local public library. Of the people who read this past year, 75 percent read a print book while 19% read an ebook, and 11% listened to an audiobook. Forty six percent used the library for research, 38 percent borrowed books (print books, audiobooks, or ebooks), and 23 percent borrowed newspapers, magazines, or journals. High schoolers, especially, report borrowing books from libraries.
Let's violate a journalistic tenet and repeat that headline: Random House says libraries own their ebooks. For those who have been paying close attention, this is not news. It came up at the Massachusetts Library Association conference in May, it was bruited about at the American Library Association (ALA) annual meeting in Anaheim in June, and it was mentioned in a "corner office" interview I had with Skip Dye, Random House's vice president of library and academic marketing and sales, during LJ's virtual ebook summit on Wednesday. But the potential implications of Random House's stance are not receiving enough attention and consideration.

The good thing about Unglue.it as I see it is that everyone is a winner. The author gets paid for his work and the world gets unlimited access to the book – What's not to like about it? I think Unglue.it is the most democratic book project you can imagine. The first book has already been unglued and is therefore yours too – it is "Oral Literature In Africa" by Ruth H. Finnegan – 278 world citizens participated in unglueing this book raising 7500 dollars – The e-book version is available for download from the Unglue.it website. You can go to Unglue.it to learn more and make your own pledge to give the gift of a book to the world.
Amazon has been sending out this email as a result of legal settlements between several major e-book publishers and the Attorneys General of most U.S. states.
Dear Kindle Customer,
We have good news. You are entitled to a credit for some of your past e-book purchases as a result of legal settlements between several major e-book publishers and the Attorneys General of most U.S. states and territories, including yours. You do not need to do anything to receive this credit. We will contact you when the credit is applied to your Amazon.com account if the Court approves the settlements in February 2013.
Hachette, Harper Collins, and Simon & Schuster have settled an antitrust lawsuit about e-book prices. Under the proposed settlements, the publishers will provide funds for a credit that will be applied directly to your Amazon.com account. If the Court approves the settlements, the account credit will appear automatically and can be used to purchase Kindle books or print books. While we will not know the amount of your credit until the Court approves the settlements, the Attorneys General estimate that it will range from $0.30 to $1.32 for every eligible Kindle book that you purchased between April 2010 and May 2012. Alternatively, you may request a check in the amount of your credit by following the instructions included in the formal notice of the settlements, set forth below. You can learn more about the settlements here:www.amazon.com/help/agencyebooksettlements
In addition to the account credit, the settlements impose limitations on the publishers' ability to set e-book prices. We think these settlements are a big win for customers and look forward to lowering prices on more Kindle books in the future.
Thank you for being a Kindle customer.

Opinion piece on the NYT: Long Live Paper
LAST week, Education Secretary Arne Duncan declared a war on paper textbooks. "Over the next few years," he said in a speech at the National Press Club, "textbooks should be obsolete." In their place would come a variety of digital-learning technologies, like e-readers and multimedia Web sites.
Such technologies certainly have their place. But Secretary Duncan is threatening to light a bonfire to a tried-and-true technology — good old paper — that has been the foundation for one of the great educational systems on the planet. And while e-readers and multimedia may seem appealing, the idea of replacing an effective learning platform with a widely hyped but still unproven one is extremely dangerous.
A letter to the Editor from the director of the Harvard U. Library, Robert Darnton via The New York Review of Books on the anticipated changes to the Rose Reading Room of the Main Library. LISNews reported on the story this past spring.
"Polemics rarely lead to happy endings. They usually produce hard feelings and a hardening of positions, rather than mutual understanding and mutually acceptable results. The loud debate about the Central Library Plan (CLP) of the New York Public Library may, however, be an exception to this rule—not that it has come to an end, but it has reached a turning point, which should satisfy both sides.
Critics of the CLP were especially incensed about its provision to remove books from the seven levels of stacks under the Rose Main Reading Room and ship them to offsite storage in order to make room for a circulating library to be installed on the lower floors. They petitioned, they provoked a debate—some of it conducted in these pages [Letters, NYR, July 12—and they were heard.
After studying the problem further, a committee of the library's trustees has made the following recommendations, which were accepted by the full board on September 19:
• Another level of stacks under Bryant Park will be developed, creating room for onsite storage of another 1.5 million books.
• Books shipped to ReCAP, the offsite storage facility in Princeton, New Jersey, from the onsite collection will mostly be works that are already digitized and available online.
This week's episode features a chat with Dan Lynch of Sixgun Productions in Liverpool about changes in the UK library world relative to the UK government reviewing the possibility of e-book lending there. Madam Producer also discusses a new report by Freedom House about Internet Freedom in the context of this week being Banned Books Week.Download here (MP3) (ogg), or subscribe to the podcast (MP3) to have episodes delivered to your media player.

Speaking at a private gathering of publishers organized by the Association of American Publishers, Sullivan was explaining why earlier this week the ALA sent a strongly worded open letter to publishers about the need to figure out way for publishers to sell libraries e-books for "equitable use at a reasonable price."
Publishers in the room, however, were not so conciliatory.
An executive from Perseus Book Group who did not identify herself said, "our executives are confused as to what is a library?" She cited concerns that the free and wide availability of e-books to library patrons could undercut publisher business.
But the most pointed questioning came from Wiley's director of digital business development Peter Balis.
"When will the ALA start proposing to us some best practices on what models you think will work from your digital solutions working group? You put a lot on us and it's created a lot of chaos and clearly it's [e-book library lending] broken. We have twelve different models," he said. "You have to come back to us with more than just 'equitable access at a fair price.'"
As the question was being posed, many heads in the publisher-heavy audience were nodding in ascent.

David Brooks Shoots and Scores On McCain
This is a very eloquent and balanced look at the man...
http://www.ohio.com/editorial/commentary/29855034.html John McCain, fundamentally sound Published on Sunday, Sep 28, 2008 NEW YORK: I've been covering John McCain steadily for a decade. A few years ago, I worked on a book, which I foolishly never completed, on the U.S. Senate with McCain as the central character. So when I step back and think of McCain, even in the heat of this campaign, I still think of him first in the real world of governing, not in the show-business world of the election. I think first of the personal qualities. He was an unfailingly candid man. When other politicians described a meeting, they always ended up the heroes of the story. But McCain would always describe the meeting straight, emphasizing his own failings with more vigor than his accomplishments. He is, for a politician, a humble man. The most important legacy of his prisoner-of-war days is that he witnessed others behaving more heroically than he did. This experience has given him a basic honesty when appraising himself. His mood darkened as the Iraq war deteriorated, but his accomplishments mounted. I don't think any senator had as impressive a few years as McCain did during this span of time. He lobbied relentlessly for a change of strategy in Iraq, holding off the tide that would have had us accept defeat and leave Iraq to its genocide. He negotiated a complicated immigration bill with Ted Kennedy. He helped organize the Gang of 14 and helped save the Senate from polarized Armageddon over judicial nominations. He voted against opportunist bills like the pork-laden energy package and the prescription drug plan. He led a crusade against Jack Abramoff and the sleaze-meisters in his own party and exposed corrupt Pentagon contracts. I could fill this column with his accomplishments during this period, and not even mention the insights. At a defense conference in Munich, I saw him diagnose and confront Russian hegemony. Week after week, I saw him dissent from GOP colleagues as their party lost its way. Some people who cover the campaign seem to have no knowledge of anything but the campaign, but I can't get these events which were real and required the constant application of judgment, honor and courage out of my head. Do I wish he was running a different campaign? Yes. It's not that he has changed his political personality that bothers me. I've come to accept that in this media-circus environment, you simply cannot run for president as a candid, normal person. Nor is it, primarily, the dishonest ads he is running. My friends in the Obama cheering section get huffy about them, while filtering from their consciousness all the dishonest ads Obama has run the demagogic DHL ad, the insulting computer ad, the cynical Rush Limbaugh ad, the misleading Social Security ad and so on. If one candidate has sunk lower than the other at this point, I've lost track. No, what disappoints me about the McCain campaign is it has no central argument. I had hoped that he would create a grand narrative explaining how the United States is fundamentally unprepared for the 21st century and how McCain's worldview is different. McCain has not made that sort of all-encompassing argument, so his proposals don't add up to more than the sum of their parts. Without a groundbreaking argument about why he is different, he's had to rely on tactical gimmicks to stay afloat. He has no frame to organize his response when financial and other crises pop up. He has no overarching argument in part because of his Senate training and the tendency to take issues on one at a time in part, because of the foolish decision to run a traditional right-left campaign against Barack Obama and, in part, because McCain has never really resolved the contradiction between the Barry Goldwater and Teddy Roosevelt sides of his worldview. One day he's a small-government Western conservative; the next he's a Bull Moose progressive. The two don't add up as we've seen in his uneven reaction to the financial crisis. Nonetheless, when people try to tell me that the McCain on the campaign trail is the real McCain and the one who came before was fake, I just say, baloney. I saw him. A half-century of evidence is there. If McCain is elected, he will retain his instinct for the hard challenge. With that Greatest Generation style of his, he will run the least partisan administration in recent times. He is not a sophisticated conceptual thinker, but he is a good judge of character. He is not an organized administrator, but he has become a practiced legislative craftsman. He is, above all and this is completely impossible to convey in the midst of a campaign a serious man prone to serious things. Amid the stupidity of this season, it seemed worth stepping back to recall the fundamentals about McCain today and Obama on some other day in the near future. Brooks is a New York Times columnist.

Hi Patrick, My paternal great-grandfather was William Lahey, born Sept. 1856, Fort Kent,Aroostock, Maine. This is on the Canadian/Maine Border. You haven't run across any "Lahey/Leahey" clan that immigrated around that time have you. Also, I show a Patrick Lahey born around the same time period and married in Maine (same area) Plus, I have a Nora Lahey and a Bridget Lahey,(married Morris Mansfied, 1900 in Lewiston,ME), both appear to be Canadian immigrants of Irish descent. If you run across any of these, please email me. Thanks, Therese Lahey-Zirkle Notify Administrator about this message?

The Perception Problem
Thomas Drance
August 11 2011 01:02PM
I remember the sinking feeling I had walking out of the "Bertuzzi-punch" game when I was in high-school. I turned to my friend and said the words: "I'm embarrassed to be a Canucks fan." I was seventeen at the time, and it wasn't an experience I'd ever had before. I remember it vividly - it was a tough moment, and a dark one.
I'm getting used to that embarrassment though, sad as it is to say. Yesterday evening - news surfaced about some harassment Milan Lucic has been enduring this summer from a handful of probably young, probably drunk young men. The Courier reports that the frosty reception from some lowest-common denominator Canucks fans has caused Lucic and his family to recalibrate their Cup celebration plans this weekend. The piece, it should be pointed out, doesn't cite a single official complaint or police report - but I don't think it requires a huge leap of faith to accept that most of what the Courier piece claims, sounds pretty likely to have occurred.
CA Prospect Profiles: Jonathan Iilahti

Jonathan Iilahti played some stellar hockey at the international junior level last year.
Will it carry over to the WHL and the Vancouver Giants?
(Photo courtesy Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
Being a goaltender in the Vancouver Canucks system must be a curious and interesting phenomenom these days. For starters, Vancouver has long been known as a goalie graveyard, a place where very few goaltenders have succeeded and a place where fans find every single opportunity to rip their netminders to shreds. Then there's the fact that the Canucks currently have Roberto Luongo signed until he's 700 years old, and have a serious trade chip in backup goalie Cory Schneider.
So what does the future look like for young Finnish goaltender and Canucks prospect Jonathan Iilahti?

Here's one way to make a fast buck (actually a million): write a textbook, be hired by a public school board and insist that the board purchase nearly 50,000 copies of your book with federal funds. This is exactly what former Los Angeles math curriculum supervisor Matthias Vheru did, but now the jig is up and he's facing prosecution.
Story from the San Luis Obispo Tribune and additional details from The Washington Post .
If he was the director of curriculum, and he designed a curriculum for which he had written the ideal textbook, and it was a good curriculum, then there's nothing necessarily inappropriate about his actions (as long as he went for all the correct procedures a fact about which there appears to be some disagreement in the article).
In both high school and college, I had teachers and professors who was signed their own textbooks for class work. Why? Why not? If they were experts in their fields, and he designed a curriculum over a period of years, why not use the textbook tailored to that specific curriculum?
It doesn't seem to me that this article carries enough information to know whether or not this man's actions were unethical or pedagogically appropriate.

This morning the Toronto Film Festival added several more films to their lineup including the world premiere of Thomas McCarthy's The Cobbler which stars Adam Sandler as a New York City cobbler who, disenchanted with the grind of daily life, stumbles upon a magical heirloom that allows him to step into the lives of his customers and see the world in a new way. The film co-stars Method Man, Ellen Barkin, Melonie Diaz, Dan Stevens, Steve Buscemi and Dustin Hoffman. Additionally, Sundance standouts Infinity Polar Bear and Laggies starring Keira Knightley and Chloe Grace Moretz were added to the Gala selection. Joining The Cobbler as new additions to the Special Presentations field include Olivier Assayas' Clouds of Sils Maria starring Kristen Stewart and Juliette Binoche and Two Days, One Night from Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne and starring Marion Cotillard.

Next month, Jack Bauer (Keifer Sutherland) will return to television with Fox's 24: Live Another Day, a 12-episode update of the acclaimed espionage thriller series. Set four years after the explosive events of 24's eighth and final season, Live Another Day finds Jack laying low in Europe, still hounded by the CIA. When he catches wind of a planned terrorist attack in London, the former agent leaps into action, determined to prevent global chaos even as his pursuers draw closer.
Fox has unveiled a decidedly cinematic trailer for the series today, which reveals a lot more about the set-up for Live Another Day, as well as new additions to the cast. Check it out below:
For newcomers to the series, season eight saw Jack slaughter high-ranking members of the Russian government who were involved in a shadowy conspiracy. In Live Another Day, the CIA is clearly still holding a »

One can find a quite revealing, fascinatingly candid admission by Steven Spielberg on a documentary for Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull featured on the film's DVD release. In it, he opens proceedings by admitting that, following the end to The Last Crusade, he felt he had brought the unlikely Indy trilogy to an appropriate conclusion with a well judged shot of Harrison Ford's erstwhile hero literally riding off into the sunset. It meant that efforts by Ford and George Lucas to revive the franchise, an ongoing struggle lasting almost all of the intervening nineteen years between Crusade and the forth in the series, were initially met with staunch refusal. Spielberg had wrapped up his fan favorite.
Considering that he moved on to Jurassic Park, Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan, he seemed justified in this stance. In the 2000s, he was still rated as »

Getting people psyched up for the new 24 series, 24: Live Another Day, may strike many people as something along the lines of Coke commercials. At this point, are you really selling to anyone? We all know whether or not we're interested in Coke.
Still, despite the idea that pulling in the completely uninitiated may be a questionable pursuit, Fox is pretty clear on the idea that it wants to make sure it doesn't miss anyone. The new teaser doesn't exactly give you a lot to go on, perhaps in a way similar to the idea that Coke commercials don't exactly explain the product. But, it does at least give you the impression that it may pull off the difficult and dangerous attempt of standing next to the previous entries. I'm not absolutely convinced that this is a game we can keep playing, but the trailer looks good. »

Another exciting casting for Fox's 24 reboot Live Another Day: Michelle Fairley is joining the show in a major villainous role.
She'll play Margo, the British widow of a notorious terrorist. This is a role that was previously filled by actress Judy Davis, who had to exit the production due for personal reasons.
Fairley is best known for HBO's fantasy hit Game of Thrones where she played Catelyn Stark for three seasons. Last year, she had a recurring role on USA's Suits.

Jack Bauer is back and stuff is blowing up, that's more or less the message we've gathered from the four teasers for 24: Live Another Day that aired during tonight's Super Bowl. The highly anticipated "event" series, a sequel to 24's eight year run on Fox, will follow a fugitive Jack Bauer sucked back into the fight against global terror while in London. Many key cast members from the series are returning, including Kiefer Sutherland, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Kim Raver and William Devane, but what trouble will they get up to? Let's find out.
Doesn't offer much, does it? Then again, shooting just began on the miniseries in London, so we'll likely have to wait a bit longer to see any significant footage.
Here's the official plot summary, it should provide a few more details.

Arguably one of the biggest television events of 2014 will be the return of Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer in Fox's event series, 24: Live Another Day. Fans of the show have waited patiently for 24 to receive a proper conclusion ever since season eight ended on a cliffhanger back in 2010.
The 12-part follow-up picks up four years later and will see Bauer head to London to face a new threat. Shooting has now begun in the capital, leading to the first waves of set photos. As you may expect, they feature the former CTU agent is a typically bloodied state.
Joining Sutherland will be Mary Lynn Rajskub (Firewall), Kim Raver (Revolution) and William Devane (The Dark Knight Rises) reprising their original roles, while newcomers include Yvonne Strahovski (Dexter), Giles Matthey (Jobs), Gbenga Akinnagbe (The Wire), Michael Wincott (The Crow) and Judy Davis (Life with Judy Garland).

Fans of 24 have been patiently waiting for the series to receive a proper conclusion ever since season 8 ended on a cliffhanger way back in 2010. For years, a big screen continuation was promised, but numerous attempts to bring Jack Bauer back to life failed again and again (everything from script issues to Kiefer Sutherland being unhappy with the amount of money Fox were offering were given as the reason why).
Well, following last year's announcement that a 12 episode event series was being planned, we now know that 24: Live Another Day will debut (in the Us at least) with a special two-hour premiere on Monday, May 5th. The official press release also confirms earlier reports that it will be both set and shot in London, with the focus again on Jack as "he attempts to thwart an unthinkable terrorist attack that could change the world forever."
Joining Sutherland will be »

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian is to its precursor what Ghostbusters II is to Ghostbusters: the less-novel offering, sure, but a follow-up of surprising wit and great throwaway touches, and one that, in many ways, improves on source material that was pretty terrific to begin with. Despite its titular locale, no one is going to mistake director Shawn Levy's adventure comedy for a work of art, yet when this follow-up is really working - which is surprisingly often - it provides a giddy, giggly rush, and it's filled with comic bits that you could probably watch three or four times in succession and laugh at every single time. The movie is scrappy, silly, and a load of fun.

Since I'm not their target demographic, I guess it shouldn't bother me that so many perky, theoretically harmless chick flicks these days are so breathtakingly shrill and stupid. But why doesn't it bother their target demographic? January gave us the offensively unfunny Bride Wars, and now, hot on that film's stiletto heels, comes Confessions of a Shopaholic, which trashes its promising setup and excellent performers in a candy-colored morass of clichés, contrivances, and incessant brainlessness. The film is like a rom-com take on Speed Racer - it even has John Goodman as a loveably ineffectual dad - and it doesn't feature one moment of recognizable human behavior. And audience members still applauded at the end.

A guys eating in a restaurant and spots a gorgeous woman sitting all alone. He calls over his waiter and says, "Send that woman a bottle of your most expensive champagne, on me."
The waiter quickly brings the champagne over to the woman, and says, "Maam, this is from the gentleman over there."
She says to the waiter, "Please tell him that for me to accept this champagne, he better have a Mercedes in his garage, a million dollars in the bank, and eight inches in his pants."
The waiter delivers the message, and the guy says, "Please go back and tell her I have two Mercedes in my garage, three million dollars in the bank, but I havent even met her...so why the fuck would I cut off four inches?"

WILMINGTON -- The trial of a man charged with killing an FBI employee in New Hanover County continues today.
The ex-wife of Tyrone Delgado testified against him in court yesterday.
Delgado is accused of strangling Melissa Mooney to death inside her home back in 1999.
It took six years for investigators to link him to the crime. They are preparing for a murder trial this March.
Seven women from across the country who say Delgado raped or attacked them are expected to testify in New Hanover County court in pre-trial motions.
Prosecutors hope to establish a pattern of behavior and use this testimony in Delgado's murder trial.

Miller is a transitional serif typeface released in 1997 by the Font Bureau, a U.S.-based digital type foundry. It was designed by Matthew Carter, based on the "Scotch Roman" style which originates from types cut by Richard Austin in Scottish type foundries in the early 19th century.
The general purpose versions of Miller are Miller Text and Miller Display, though since their release they have given rise to a number of variants, including Miller Daily, Miller Headline and Miller Banner, as well as some variants commissioned for use in specific publications. The Miller family is widely used, mostly in newspapers and magazines.
Contents |
The Miller family was designed by Matthew Carter and developed by Carter with the assistance of the Font Bureau's Tobias Frere-Jones and Cyrus Highsmith,[1] and the encouragement of James Mosley, a librarian at St Bride Library.[2]
Miller is a "Scotch Roman"—a style which originated in types cut by Richard Austin at the Scottish type foundries of Alexander Wilson and William Miller in the period of 1810–1820.[3] Although Miller remains faithful to the Scotch Roman style (for example, in having both roman and italic small caps), it is not based on any single historical example.[4] Mosley described Carter's revival of Miller as follows:
Matthew Carter's Miller is not a facsimile of Miller's Scotch Roman, any more than his Galliard was a facsimile of any one type by Robert Granjon. What it has done is to capture the good color, and the generous breadth and modelling of its model, and to bring a valid version of 'Scotch Roman' back into current use after a lapse [in England] of some decades. Miller was made with current production needs in mind, of which the two versions, 'Display' and the more robust 'Text' versions are evidence, and so is its relatively large x-height.[5]
As well as the general purpose versions of Miller, Miller Text and Miller Display, numerous variants designed by Carter and others have been added to the Miller family. Variants include:
Miller and its variants are widely used in newspapers, magazines and other publications around the world. Miller Daily is used for body copy in The Washington Post,[3] while Miller Banner features in Glamour magazine.[8] Another Miller variant, Miller News, was commissioned by Simon Esterson of The Guardian for his 1998 redesign of the newspaper,[9][10] Miller Globe was designed for The Boston Globe,[11] and Bibliographical Miller was commissioned by the University of California, Los Angeles for use in its Aldine Press incunable collection.[2] The Miller family has also been used in the National Post, The Straits Times, The Dallas Morning News, Hindustan Times and the San Jose Mercury News.[5]
A 2005 survey by Ascender Corporation found Miller to be the tenth most popular typeface featured in American newspapers.[12] As of 2010[update], it is Carter's biggest source of royalties amongst the fonts to which he owns the rights.[13]

Residents of Dover: Where are you?

I have served as a member of the Dover City Council for almost five months and I'd like to share an observation.
Maybe there are thousands of you watching our meetings on Channel 22, but somehow I doubt that's happening. Maybe we're doing such a good job that 99 percent of you feel that no further input is needed. I don't think that's the case either.
