Rob Gray spins February 11 at the Funky Buddha
Rob Gray — who relocated to Denver last year after building up his name as a Midwest Massive resident in St. Louis — is the latest to grace Brett Starr's monthly House Revival night at the Funky Buddha, where three different DJs spin hours of house music in the round, taking turns at the decks and building off each other. You might have heard his funky, soulful tunes at myhouseyourhouse.net, as a guest at Kilowatt Thursdays, or even at last year's Lake of the Ozarks blowout, Escape to the Beats V (which draws more Denverites to the Midwest every year). Gray's smooth, soulful style utilizes playful piano lines, spoken-word sampling and jazzed-up melodies overlaying booty-shaking beats, and we're very lucky to have him here in the Mile High City. He'll spin with Starr and Brian Camarena on Saturday, February 11, as one of the House Revival selectors.

This sounds like anotherSubmitted by Optimister (not verified) on Sun, 06/17/2012 - 7:47am.
This sounds like another solyndra. Pour millions of goverment money into something we think might work. How about lab testing it on a small scale and being sure it will work. It also sounds like another mandated program because given a choice people will not buy it. How much money already has been lost on this type of ethanol plant. »

Lucia [loo-SEE-ah] is 5 years old. She lives in the little town of Opuwo [oh-POO-who] in northern Namibia. [Locate Namibia on the map.]
Lucia is the youngest of several children. Her parents work in their small shop in a Himba village several hours away. They can't come home every day, so Lucia's oldest sister takes care of the family.
Once a month Father and Mother return home for the weekend. It's always an exciting time when Mother and Father come home. The family worships together and laughs as they eat meals together. Then on Sunday, Mother and Father say goodbye to their children and return to their business.
Lucia studies at the Adventist preschool near her home. She has just started kindergarten, and she enjoys school a lot. She learns such practical skills as washing and drying dishes, sweeping the room, and measuring out ingredients for a recipe, as well as math and basic reading skills.
Talking Time
The children in Lucia's school don't talk while they are doing their assignments unless they have a question. But during language class and talking time, they may talk freely. "After lunch we have a talking time," Lucia explains. "We can talk about anything we want. Some children talk about what happened to them or tell about their pet."
But Lucia likes to tell Bible stories during talking time. Her favorite story is about Daniel. "Daniel and the king were friends," she explains. "Some of the king's helpers didn't like that the king shared secrets with Daniel, so they set a trap. They knew that Daniel prayed three times a day, so they convinced the king to make a law saying no one could pray to anyone but the king. The king liked the idea; he didn't think about Daniel when he signed the law. The next day the servant told the king that Daniel was praying to his God. The king was sad when he realized that his servants had tricked him, but he couldn't change the law. So he had to put Daniel into the lions' den that night.
"But God sent angels to protect Daniel. The next day the king ordered the servants to take Daniel out of the lions' den. Then he told the people that they must stop praying to idols and pray only to Daniel's God in heaven. Even the king prayed to Daniel's God."
Lucia loves learning about God in school and in Sabbath School. She says, "It's important to know about Jesus so we can tell our friends. Some of my friends don't know God as I do. They need to hear that God is mighty and powerful and that He loves us," she says.
Part of this quarter's Thirteenth Sabbath Offering will help tell the Himba people of northern Namibia about Jesus.

AT&T Center
Attendance: 17,075
San Antonio, TX (Sports Network) - Tim Duncan scored 19 points, pulled down 16 rebounds, and his dunk with 4.6 seconds left lifted San Antonio to a 100-99 victory over the Indiana Pacers, giving Spurs coach Gregg Popovich his 700th career regular season win.
Tony Parker added 15 points, Keith Bogans 14 and Manu Ginobili 13 for the Spurs, who have won two straight and five of their last six games. George Hill had 12 points and Richard Jefferson 10 for the Spurs.
Troy Murphy had 21 points, while Roy Hibbert contributed 20 points, seven rebounds and six blocks for the Pacers, who have lost two straight. T.J. Ford had 14 points and Mike Dunleavy 11 in defeat.
Hibbert's tip-in off a Ford miss moved the Pacers to a 99-98 edge with 1:12 left, but Indiana couldn't take advantage of misses by the Spurs. Duncan was off the mark on a layup and a jumper, while Ginobili missed a three-ball, all in the same possession.
Ford missed a shot at the other end and the Spurs called timeout with 10.2 seconds left to set up a final play. Duncan got the ball in low, but the attempt was blocked by Hibbert. Duncan cleaned up with a jam.
"I wanted to try and take it to the glass and see what happens," said Duncan. "Hibbert made a very good defensive play. It came right back to me, a little bit of luck. I'll take it."
Ford's jumper caromed off the iron at the end for the Pacers, who wasted an 87-76 lead with nearly 10 minutes left.
San Antonio gained a 30-21 edge after the first quarter and went to the intermission holding a 50-45 lead. Indiana surged late in the third to grab an 83-70 lead moving to the fourth.
"We showed a lot of heart tonight," said Ford. "We just have to close out the game and protect it when we get a lead."

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Portsmouth hockey nipped in quarters
Sunday, March 9, 2014
EXETER — It would be tough to find a moment in Portsmouth High School hockey history that rivaled the atmosphere following Beau Arsenault's second goal during Saturday's Division III quarterfinal against John Stark/Hopkinton.
John Stark/Hopkinton went 2-0-1 against Portsmouth this season, including a 5-4 win and 6-6 tie in the regular season.
"I'm never going to forget that — that's one of the best moments in my life," Rancourt said. "The vibe in this place was electrifying and it gave us a boost. It's sad that I'll never experience that again with this team and I really wish I could."
Portsmouth is due to return a talented group of 13 players. Brandano knows how this group should be remembered. |

although i'm not new to firearms, being an avid hunter for most of my life. i am new to self defence weapons. i've been practicing some basic sd handgun techniques. as such, i have taken my state required classes and applied for my cpl. currently waiting for the mailman. i'm also going to take some formal training classes. the more i learn about self defence the less i find out i know.
my main motivation besides living in the detroit metro area, is to have abit more than a bow and buck knife while i'm in one of michigans deep dark swamps. believe me when i say that my guardian angle has stepped in more than once.

40.41s - refresh rates 1280x960
If you are using this resolution, no matter what refresh rate you choose, it will still run at 60hz. I know this because i check the refresh rate on my monitors OSD, and it says 60hz even if i set it to something else. Happens on my bros computer. Dosn't happen on other resolutions. So i think this is a bug in the new drivers. Please fix.
Same issue
I've been running into the same issue. When using the Det 40.xx drivers, I can't run at a higher refresh than 60 Hz while just on the Desktop when in 1280x960. I just hope they can get this fixed soon. Everything else I saw about the drivers was rather impressive.

Is it farther or further?
"sac in certain fungi," 1830, Modern Latin, from Greek askos "leather bag, wine skin," of unknown origin.
ascus as·cus (ās'kəs)n. pl. as·ci (ās'ī', -kī') A membranous, often club-shaped structure in which typically eight spores are formed through sexual reproduction of ascomycetes.
spelling Did you mean ASCII?
a saclike structure produced by fungi of the phylum Ascomycota (sac fungi) in which sexually produced spores (ascospores), usually four or eight in number, are formed. Asci may arise from the fungal mycelium (the filaments, or hyphae, constituting the organism) without a distinct fruiting structure, as in the leaf curl fungi; it may arise within a fruiting structure (ascocarp) that may be exposed, as in the molds and powdery mildew fungi; or it may be imbedded in a compact structure (stroma), as in the ergot and black knot fungi. In the case of yeasts, a single cell converts to an ascus.

The column is below. Before that, I feel I should apologise for my very limited blogging over the last month or so. At very short notice, I have been posted to Washington DC. Indeed, I caught a plane two hours after filing my last Bagehot column and am now writing these words in the American capital. Organising the move in a hurry left no time for this blog, to my regret.
Mine was a briefer than expected stay in Britain. After watching the country from afar for so many years, it was a great opportunity to report on my homeland, an outlier in so many ways, and something of a canary in the mine for the cause of free market liberalism.
Your comments have been instructive, I always read every one, as I did in a previous life as Charlemagne, and will again in the late summer when I...Continue reading]]>
DAVID CAMERON does not want Britain to leave the European Union, though he finds it exasperating and fears euro-zone meltdown could cost him re-election. His Liberal Democrat coalition partner, Nick Clegg, is a pro-European. Nor does the Labour opposition leader, Ed Miliband, want out. Mr Miliband is a European social democrat by instinct (his relatives were refugees from the Holocaust) and by judgment, seeing the EU as a way of delivering public goods such as action on climate change.
Yet the chances of Britain leaving the EU in the next few years are higher than they have ever been. A Brixit looms for several reasons. For one thing, the British never fell in love with Europe, instead weighing costs against economic benefits. Right now the EU is seen as a basket case (though British finances are hardly in great shape).
For another, if euro-zone members overcome their differences and integrate much more deeply, they would arguably be leaving Britain, especially if their integration fragments the single market that is the bedrock of British membership. Mr Cameron and his chancellor of the exchequer, George Osborne, may talk of the euro's "remorseless logic" compelling richer members to stand behind the weak. But there are paths of...Continue reading]]>
EVER since he delivered his budget to Parliament on March 21st, troubles have rained down on George Osborne. He has U-turned and dodged, to the press's glee. The chancellor's colleagues ask whether he is steering Britain on the right course, amid the most perilous economic storms in memory.
Some on the right of the Conservative Party loudly assail the chancellor, accusing him of lacking a credible plan for growth. They roll their eyes at Mr Osborne's blame-shifting argument that a British recovery, already slowed by high oil prices and debts bequeathed by the previous Labour government, is being "killed off" by chaos in the euro zone. The euro is a menace, such right-wingers agree. That is why a proper Tory chancellor would call for its early break-up, not urge European colleagues to save it.
A second group, among them lots of Tory MPs first elected in 2010, is less critical than crestfallen after a run of missteps from a man they had thought the political genius of their generation.
A final group of worriers includes figures close to the Conservative leadership (as well as allies of Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democratic bit of the coalition). These quiet...Continue reading]]>
ANGRY insurgents rarely prosper in British politics. Two big things help explain this: voting rules and sniggering. Britain's first-past-the-post voting system is rather brutal to small parties. And if electoral rules do not snare a would-be demagogue then mocking laughter probably will. It is a brave politician who stands before British voters, face red and voice shaking with fury. There is always the risk that at some climactic moment a heckler will interrupt, posing a variant on the ancient British question: just who do you think you are?
How, then, to explain the rise of Nigel Farage, leader of the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), an insurgent (and at times quite angry) outfit devoted to Britain's withdrawal from the European Union? Once a near-irrelevance, UKIP haunts the thoughts of politicians across Westminster. The explanation lies in Mr Farage's talent for turning both Britain's voting system and its traditions of pomposity-pricking mockery to his advantage.
UKIP does not need to win a single House of Commons seat at the next general election to have an outsized impact. The party just needs to threaten, credibly, to siphon off enough Conservative votes to deny David Cameron's party victory in a...Continue reading]]>
Alas, the story of Britain's relations with Europe comes under the heading complicated but important (or even, a lot of the time, boring but important).
As patient readers may have noticed from a few columns and blog postings over the past few months, I think that Britain's relationship with the EU is in pretty ropey shape. Some of that is the fault of British politicians, quite a lot of it is not. Though accused here in London of being a hand-wringing Euro-quisling, I was taxed in Brussels with being a swivel-eyed Anglo-Saxon ultra-liberal Eurosceptic. I like to think that leaves me, in political terms, doggy-paddling somewhere in the middle of the English Channel dodging the ferries. But it's not for me to judge.
But I confess that in my reporting around Westminster and in my contacts with the government and opposition, I do try to keep an eye on what is happening with the euro-debate. It helps that the clan of people in London interested in Europe (whether pro-European or Eurosceptic) is pretty small. So like devotees of some...Continue reading]]>
NOTHING in Britain's constitutional traditions obliges the Speaker of the House of Commons to woo voters. Within the Gothic halls of the Palace of Westminster, the Speaker is a mini-monarch, escorted to the chamber by a mace-bearer, a doorkeeper and a chaplain, while a policeman shouts at people to remove their hats. From his canopied chair, the Speaker can summon the prime minister to explain himself and silence the mightiest office-holder with a glance. The incumbent, John Bercow, comes from a safe seat, Buckingham, which he first won as a Conservative in 1997 but now holds as the non-partisan Speaker.
Yet one recent Friday Bagehot watched Mr Bercow criss-cross the West Midlands, wooing the public as if days from a crunch election and ten points behind. After an early train from London (second class tickets, an entourage of two) the day ranged from the dignity of a formal lecture to events that would leave a non-politician pink-cheeked with embarrassment. There was a speech to football coaches that had to be delivered at a bellow in one corner of a noisy sports hall. There was a photo opportunity in a bus station, involving Mr Bercow, a local MP, a mayor in a gold chain and a bus named after a local war hero. All gamely grinned for the camera while...Continue reading]]>
BEFORE Queen Elizabeth's Silver Jubilee in 1977, the villagers of West Hoathly in Sussex were placed under secret observation. A file was drawn up, noting their views on the monarchy, the country and the impending celebrations. The royal family was marvellous but these festivities had better not cost too much, said one villager, recorded as "Nurse, female, 50", explaining: "People are not in the mood."
West Hoathly was reliably monarchist, the file records, with anti-republican sentiment boosted by recent American elections ("Fancy having Jimmy Carter," a villager shuddered). But still its Jubilee enthusiasts sounded a bit bleak. We're due a celebration, said "Male, 53"—we've made it to 1977 without a nuclear war.
The files were commissioned by Mass Observation, a private social-research project that has studied the British since the 1930s. In all, 107 volunteers were recruited to record the Silver Jubilee. Their diaries and notes, together with complementary files on the 2002 Golden Jubilee, now form part of a vast archive held at Sussex University. On the eve of Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee—to be marked from June 2nd to 5th—the archives offer a...Continue reading]]>
SOME years back the BBC enjoyed a surprise hit with a spoof chat-show presented by Mrs Merton, a fictional northern housewife whose trick was skewering guests with mock-naive questions. One noted interview, with a willowy beauty married to a diminutive magician, featured the query: "So, what first attracted you to the millionaire Paul Daniels?" The concept of the "Mrs Merton question" duly entered the national lexicon.
Far from the world of sequins and greasepaint, Bagehot recently interviewed a political grandee about constitutional reforms being explored by the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition. The grandee expressed passionate opposition to a planned change that—it so happened—would disadvantage his own political party. This is a Mrs Merton question, Bagehot ventured—as in: what explains your principled objections to this reform that might cost your party the next election? The grandee pondered this impertinence but did not immediately respond. Yet, a while later, asked to explain his party's dislike of another constitutional reform, he murmured: "Mrs Merton reasons."
Mrs Merton's spirit may need summoning once more, after...Continue reading]]>
Only Bristol was in favour. In a separate vote, Doncaster voted to keep its mayor.
What went wrong?
Left to his own devices, Steve Hilton, Mr Cameron's shoe-shunning head of policy and long-time political friend, would have imposed mayors all over the country, in a Big Bang designed to shock and awe the forces of municipal reaction into submission.
Mr Hilton's dreams were partly inspired by France, where even the tiniest commune has an elected leader in a tricouleur sash, well-known to local electors—"Bonsoir, Monsieur le Maire"—and thus accountable to them, and representing authority devolved to the lowest possible level....Continue reading]]>
Voices on the Tory right have already reacted with enthusiasm, with ConservativeHome arguing that David Cameron should follow Lord Mandelson's lead and announce an in-out referendum. Con Home explicitly says that the value of such a vote would be to neutralise the threat from the United Kingdom Independence Party, the anti-EU protest party which is today being credited or blamed (depending on who is doing the reporting) with triggering defeats for the Conservatives in such previous Tory strongholds as Thurrock in Essex and Tunbridge Wells in Kent.
Some caveats are needed at this point. Nobody is expecting UKIP to pick up lots of seats in the House of Commons at the next general election. There is considerable polling and focus group evidence that Europe is not, in fact, the top issue for core UKIP voters, who...Continue reading]]>
You can add to that Mr Hague's hunch that all diplomacy, deep down, is bilateral, and his insistence that Britain needs to "get over" its neuroses about post-imperial decline or its sometimes tetchy relations with Europe, and instead focus on selling its best assets (he cites things such as Britain's armed forces, her universities, civil servants and service industries).
The end result, I conclude, is that Mr Hague is making a bet that Britain will mostly have to look after herself in the next phase of globalisation. He may be right, but if he is to win that bet, Britain will have to ensure that it really does have world-class services, products and capabilities to sell. That will involve unprecedented effort and hard work. Are we British ready to work that hard? I hope so, but I am not sure.
Here is the column.

Mr Watson has just published a book, "Dial M for Murdoch, News Corporation and the corruption of Britain", which makes a passionate case that News Corp and its British arm, News International, behaved for years like a "secret state", to a degree that threatened British democracy itself.
At its readable best, the book—which I reviewed for last week's print edition of The Economist—has the moral force and anger of a prosecutorial summing-up of the case against Mr Murdoch. (The book is less good, I argued, at answering a harder question: how to craft new forms of oversight and media-ownership rules that work, leaving Britain with a free press that is less horrible but still profitable.)
Yet today we were reminded that Mr Watson, a loyal ally of...Continue reading]]>
Ms Leslie, the daughter of a surgeon, notes that ministers have spent years wrestling with the puzzle of giving good teachers the freedom to teach while preventing bad teachers from wrecking the lives of children.

Are British newspapers a menace to democracy? tag:www.economist.com,21553535 2012-04-26T15:40:13+00:00 2012-04-26T15:40:13+00:00 Reasons for optimism, even amidst the gloom Bagehot http://www.economist.com BAGEHOT spent today in Singapore on the final leg of a trip watching the British foreign secretary at work in Asia. A future column will discuss Britain's new foreign policy plans, but this week's print column—written from the road—examines a furore back home triggered by the latest hearings of the Leveson inquiry into press ethics. Ripples from the debate about the British press, and its unhealthily swaggering relations with the country's political leaders, reached Asia all week. To my slight surprise, I found myself watching Leveson coverage live at Hong Kong airport, courtesy of CNN, caught up on more footage late at night on streaming video, and my Blackberry hummed with endless headlines. Why is a row about British domestic press regulation global news? Is it because British newspapers and newspaper tycoons really are a menace to democracy? I am not sure. In part, of course, it is because Ruper Murdoch, the tycoon whose evidence made most waves this week, is a global media baron. But in part, I argue in this column, Britain simply has a very odd media market. Here's the column:
WHEN Britain's biggest tabloid claimed credit for a Conservative general election victory with the front-page headline "It's the Sun wot won it", its proprietor, Rupert Murdoch, was not pleased. Giving evidence on April 25th to a public...Continue reading]]>
Britain's educational secret weapon: chilly rigour tag:www.economist.com,21553431 2012-04-25T20:43:54+00:00 2012-04-25T20:43:54+00:00 Easy is not good Bagehot http://www.economist.com "YOU don't see many white people round here," said the American lecturer, visibly startled to encounter Bagehot at the Banking Academy of Vietnam, a sprawling finance college in a far-flung district of Hanoi. Actually, on this particular morning there were two more Europeans upstairs, giving an economics lecture on the optimal level of managerial ownership in a British company (not too little, but not too much either, I can report, otherwise managers start hoarding cash).
But learning was not really the point this morning. This visit by two academics from a branch of London University was really a thinly-disguised sales pitch, advertising the joys of studying in far-off Britain.
Vietnam is a young country—a quarter of the population are under 15—and its local universities are a source of endless complaint among the rising middle class. The teaching is pretty patchy, and students are obliged to leave their core studies to study such irrelevances as family planning, military drill and "ideology".
As a result, Vietnam is seen as a boom market for western universities, notably in Britain, the top overseas destination for students from Hanoi (the southern middle classes from Ho Chi Minh City favour American and Australian colleges, reflecting both the legacy of American influence in southern Vietnam, and family ties to émigré communities...Continue reading]]>
The British government's prosperity agenda hits the road tag:www.economist.com,21553358 2012-04-24T17:25:49+00:00 2012-04-24T17:25:49+00:00 With the British Foreign Secretary in Hanoi Bagehot http://www.economist.com REPORTING from a summit some years ago, your correspondent found himself following the foreign minister of another country into a press conference. The foreign minister in question, a celebrated public intellectual at home, was strolling at an easy lope into the room when his attention was caught by something to his left. The distraction, it turned out, was the minister's own reflection in the shiny glass of an interpreter's booth. The ministerial hand rose and came to rest on the ministerial hair, its owner oblivious to the British journalist just behind him. Pat, pat, smooth, went the hand. A last check. A nod. Oh yes. Looking good. And in we went. Tonight, Bagehot is in Hanoi, watching a rather different foreign minister, William Hague, on a tour of south-east Asia. Keeping up with the British foreign secretary involves more jogging than loping, it turns out. There is a minimum of fuss. Landing at Hanoi, his small delegation of officials cantered through the airport, unnoticed by milling passengers. Shaven-headed and crisply suited, were it not for his Yorkshire accent and red ministeral box in hand, he could have been an American CEO, in town to inspect a new production site.
Taking office, the Conservative-led coalition vowed a new, business-centred approach to foreign policy. Trade and prosperity would be the watchword, rather than grandiose schemes to...Continue reading]]>
Why elected mayors matter tag:www.economist.com,21553116 2012-04-19T17:13:41+00:00 2012-04-19T17:13:41+00:00 Foes of elected mayors detect a plot to drive radical public sector reforms; they're right Bagehot http://www.economist.com MY PRINT column this week is from Bristol, one of ten English cities that on May 3rd are holding a referendum on whether to have a directly elected mayor. There are larger cities holding votes on the same day, such as Birmingham, and cities that are convulsed by angrier rows about the quality of their local councils, such as Nottingham. But Bristol offers a particularly pure case study of what is at stake. Power has changed hands many times in the last decade in Bristol City Council, with coups, ambushes, partial elections and backroom deals bringing down minority administrations and wobbly, ad-hoc coalitions. As a result, by the count of Conservative ministers in London the post of council leader (chosen from among the 70 elected local councillors after deal-making among the dominant party blocks) has changed hands seven times in the past ten years, though this is disputed by the current council bosses. Add in a quirk that the council holds partial elections in three years out of every four, and the sad result is that many Bristolians are thoroughly sick of local democracy. In the words of a piece of graffiti sighted in the tough St Paul's district of the city: "Whoever you vote for, the council wins".
All this rule by fudge, huddle and horse-trading has undermined accountability, and weakened any sense that voters can sanction policies they dislike, and reward...Continue reading]]>
Why the debate over British shale gas extraction is for high stakes tag:www.economist.com,21552969 2012-04-17T22:13:31+00:00 2012-04-17T22:13:31+00:00 Not just a domestic argument Bagehot http://www.economist.com THE BRITISH debate about shale gas extraction has made headlines today, following the publication of a government-commissioned study suggesting that the unconventional drilling technique can safely be tested further, despite apparently causing two small earthquakes near the northern resort town of Blackpool. The domestic argument is already trundling along familiar tramlines. Environmental campaign groups and left-wing newspapers have expressed concern, arguing that it would be better to focus on renewable energy sources. Right-wing newspapers have accused green activists of having a "general hostility to fossil fuels". Similar debates can be found in several countries which have looked into the use of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to unlock gas and oil deposits from rock formations with the help of high-pressure injections of water and chemicals.
Yet the British debate could turn out to have an international twist, and one that makes it edgier than most.

Cutty Sark Britain tag:www.economist.com,21552651 2012-04-12T15:35:19+00:00 2012-04-12T15:35:19+00:00 British Eurosceptics try out a new line of argument: who needs European markets anyway? Bagehot http://www.economist.com MY PRINT column this week looks at a question that is coming to dominate British debate about Europe: is EU membership an economic advantage, or is it dragging us down? OTHER countries show off warships or the vessels of great explorers. It says something about Britain that one of its best-loved ships, the Cutty Sark, was built for trade. After long repairs, the three-masted tea clipper will reopen to the public on April 26th in a new setting at Greenwich—her racing lines and brass-sheathed hull held in a lattice of glass and steel so that visitors may walk aboard, around and beneath her.
Launched in 1869 at the peak of British commercial power, the Cutty Sark was a response to globalisation. The abolition of protectionist laws had opened China-to-Britain shipping routes to fast American boats, capable of winning the lucrative annual race to London with the new tea harvest. Manned by sailors from a half-dozen nations, the Cutty Sark was built to win the tea race, at such high cost that her shipyard went bankrupt. Dogged by ill luck (a broken rudder, a captain eaten by sharks) she never won a China race, but later made a packet as the fastest ship on the Australian wool run. Today her bowsprit points across the Thames at another symbol of global Britain: the glass towers of the Canary Wharf...Continue reading]]>
David Cameron's bad week tag:www.economist.com,21552298 2012-04-04T17:12:52+00:00 2012-04-04T17:12:52+00:00 The real lesson from a spate of grim headlines: British voters are losing faith in mainstream parties Bagehot http://www.economist.com MY PRINT column this week looks back at a run of grim headlines for David Cameron and his coalition government, and questions the idea that his biggest problem is being exposed as an out-of-touch toff: "LET'S not mince words," said one of the Conservative Party's heavy-hitters: our party has come to be seen as arrogant, selfish and—fatally—"out of touch". The out-of-touch charge has rung in the ears of David Cameron and his closest ally, George Osborne, this week, after days of unforced errors. Lowlights included a party fund-raiser filmed allegedly offering access to ministers for donations, bungled preparations for a fuel-delivery strike and angry headlines about a budget that noisily cut the 50% top income-tax rate while sneakily raising tax on pensioners and hot bakery snacks (serious stuff: the British like their pasties).
The prime minister's net approval rating, measured by the pollster YouGov, fell 16 points in a single week, to a record low of -27. Much advice has been offered by Tories in Parliament and by the press: cull the suave "chums of Dave" who fill Downing Street; hire a new party chairman; give more ministerial posts to northern or working-class MPs; ditch totems of party modernisation such as support for gay marriage, and focus on proper, Conservative policies like bashing Europe and slashing...Continue reading]]>

True, there were the Occupy London protestors camped out on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral, and yes, the Archbishop of Canterbury and assorted bishops were regularly making headlines by speaking out against public spending cuts, criticising the government and generally fretting about austerity. But the Occupy protestors had only ended up at the cathedral by accident, I noted. They wanted to camp in the London stock exchange but were prevented by security guards, forcing them onto the nearest open space around St Paul's. More seriously, I was struck by how seldom Church of England leaders mentioned religion or God in their essays, editorials and open letters. More often, I grumbled, sounded like shop stewards for the welfare state, defending specific benefits or attacking specific cuts. That was their right, I agreed: the Anglican church was an early enthusiast for the welfare state (indeed, the very term was coined by an archbishop of Canterbury). But is defending welfare enough, I wondered? Follow the logic to the end, and citizens fulfil...Continue reading]]>
Another reason why the Tory right are wrong about gay marriage tag:www.economist.com,21552127 2012-04-02T12:25:32+00:00 2012-04-02T12:25:32+00:00 Forgetting the lessons of "back to basics" Bagehot http://www.economist.com ACCORDING to the Daily Telegraph's well-researched front-page offering this morning—"Tory MPs round on Cameron and Osborne"—the gay marriage thing made it onto the list of stink-bombs lobbed at David Cameron during a "robust" private meeting last week with senior Tory backbenchers. As I mentioned last week, I struggle to see the link between gay weddings and the government's recent, genuine offences against competence: a poorly-presented budget, and advice on preparing for a petrol strike that failed to take into account the detail that British motorists, when panicked, have the rational capacity of hens.
But there you go. For a certain sort of MP, Mr Cameron's enthusiastic support for gay marriage clearly remains a talismanic blunder, that exposes his failings as an out-of-touch elitist surrounded by amoral metropolitans.
When it comes to the ethics of gay marriage, I think I am right to support it (on grounds of equality, human kindness, the evidence that it improves the lives of thoroughly decent, upstanding gay citizens and simple good manners). Socially conservative MPs do not agree. But assuming that we must agree to disagree on the ethics, here are two more cynical, electoral arguments in favour of Mr...Continue reading]]>
Wait till the Sun hears that the EU won't let George Osborne reverse the pasty tax tag:www.economist.com,21551677 2012-03-30T10:47:16+00:00 2012-03-30T10:47:16+00:00 The campaign to reverse the pasty tax is up against the clock Bagehot http://www.economist.com THE Tory tabloids are still seething about what they are calling the "pasty tax", or George Osborne's decision to end the VAT exemption on sausage rolls, pasties, freshly roasted chickens and the like that are sold hot over shop counters or in supermarkets, for munching elsewhere. The Sun devotes two pages to the question and a leader, and links to a petition got up by the National Association of Master Bakers, demanding that the tax break be re-instated. They had better hurry. I blush to admit it, but five years covering the European Union left me quite the connoisseur of VAT rules (you lucky people). And VAT is a one-way ratchet of a tax, thanks to its role in funding the EU budget. Put simply, the EU doesn't like VAT exemptions or special low rates. It cannot do much about those that already exist, because tax rules are decided by unanimity among all 27 member countries. But if a national government ever gives up a national VAT exemption, it is gone forever (unless all 26 other member countries can be persuaded to show mercy).
Scanning the fine print of the 2012 budget, VAT is going to be slapped on hot shop-sold food from October 1st this...Continue reading]]>

David Beckham teams up with foul-mouthed chef Gordon Ramsay
(Read article summary)David Beckham has announced plans to open a pie and mash restaurant chain with foul-mouthed chef Gordon Ramsay, disappointing this mom and her Beckham fan family.
AP Photo/Wong Maye-E
When soccer legend David Beckham, often called the "ultimate role model for kids," decided to back a string of pie and mash cafes he made the distasteful choice of setting a bad example for young fans by teaming with a foul-mouthed bully chef Gordon Ramsay. Pie and mash is an East London classic that originated with dock workers and consists of a meat pie, mashed potatoes and eel sauce.
As parents we love Mr. Beckham, Mr. Ramsay, however, is a parent's worst nightmare for his constant swearing, brutal berating of those he works with on various TV shows, and generally bad attitude.
I marvel that a man who has done so much good by saving failing restaurants via the show Kitchen Nightmares, can be so widely reviled. Today I marvel again that Beckham is so drawn to this sort of person.
According to the Irish Independent, "The ex-footballer is said to be plotting a worldwide pie and mash takeover with foul-mouthed Gordon."
In 2010 Beckham and Ramsay registered the name PM - which stands for Pie & Mash - under their joint initials DBGR with the Intellectual Property Office, according to the London Sun.

Obama's offshore tax reforms prompt jitters in Ireland
Closing a corporate tax loophole could yield $60 billion for the US, but it threatens to undermine an already weak Irish economy.
Galway, Ireland
President Obama launched his offshore tax reform proposals last month with a briefing note stating that Ireland, Bermuda, and the Netherlands accounted for nearly a third of all foreign profits reported by US corporations in 2003.
These are precisely the profits Mr. Obama hopes to tax.
The three countries named in the memo did a shocked double-take: "Who, me?"
It was not an entirely ingenuous reaction. The president's intent to rein in offshore tax havens and close corporate tax loopholes was signaled long in advance.
Although the issue has remained relatively under the radar in the US, it's caused something of a furor in Ireland, where unemployment is skyrocketing, the budget deficit is deepening, and the banking sector threatens to disappear down a black hole left by the imploding property market.
More than 500 US firms employ 100,000 people directly in Ireland. In 2008, those firms paid more than $3.6 billion in corporation tax to the Irish government – 40 percent of the country's total corporation tax take that year. If the new rules were to prompt a mass exodus of US multinationals, as some analysts predict, the economy would effectively be almost entirely hollowed out.
The Irish press has reacted to the proposal with dismay, but more sober minds have since combed the president's statement and exhaled an uncertain sigh of relief. For Ireland, and for every other country with a substantial US corporate presence, deferral is the big issue. Existing law allows multinational corporations to defer reporting their foreign income to the Internal Revenue Service and to obtain US tax credits for paying foreign taxes.

There are no floors in this thing. Total rot from the firewall to the rear seats.
Rear wiper spoken for. I don't know if I could get the windshield out without busting it. Same for the trim....not sure how that comes off. $25 for the windshield and trim if I can get it out. Corner lights and tail lights - $50 for all. |

How soon are you coming down this way? I like the prices, i know in the other post you said the lift sold, if that falls through i would like it to.
As for the windsheild trim i think it just clips on and off, at least thats what it looks like where mine is missing, and the glass wont break if you can get it cut all the way through. |

The Rules Committee voted 8-4 on Wednesday to send to the House floor a measure on whether to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress.
The party-line vote on the closed rule provides 25 minutes of debate for Republicans and 25 minutes for Democrats.
Before voting no, Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., made a brief statement.
"Mr. Chairman if we do this history will judge us harshly," he said.

We are proud to announce our first series of SESMAD publications, appearing in a special issue of the International Journal of the Commons (http://www.thecommonsjournal.org). These are each listed under the "publications" page of the home tab.
Welcome to the website for the social-ecological meta-analysis database (SESMAD) project! The goal of this project is to enable highly comparable case analyses of a diversity of social-ecological systems. The SESMAD project is unique in several respects. First and foremost, it is a collaboration that began with fourteen young scientists from diverse backgrounds, each trained to consistently code data into a common database. The SESMAD project began during a conference held by the Resilience Alliance in the spring of 2010. During this conference, a group known as the Resilience Alliance Young Scholars (RAYS) met and formed teams oriented around particular projects. SESMAD was one of those projects. Project members became part of the project either through their affiliation with RAYS or with the Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis at Indiana University, a well-recognized leading center in the synthetic institutional study of small-scale common-pool resource management.
An additionally unique aspect of SESMAD is that it entails the development of tools and an approach as much as it involves the production of scientific results. In addition to serving as the hub for the work done by the core SESMAD team, this website, and the database it supports, is designed serve as a tool for a variety of collaborative research projects.
The core group is focusing on the use of meta-analytic methods to analyze large-scale environmental problems and systems such as the Great Barrier Marine Park and Ozone Depletion. The website and database, however, are capable of assisting in data collection and organization of any type of SES. Several pilot projects are under way which involve novel fieldwork and are guided by the use of the SESMAD approach.
Site Content:
This site serves as an interface with the SESMAD database. This is done with the series of tabs that are present on each page. The first two of these (Introduction and Manual) provide an introduction to the project.
The manual tab provides both a (1) in-depth guide to the structure of the SESMAD database, and (2) a much briefer data entry guide. These cover similar content. The manual tab can also be used by any user to browse the variables that are available to be measured via the database, the studies that users have either published themselves or used to code a case, and to browse through any surveys that were used to collect data for a case.
The next three tabs (Cases, Components and Theories) are used to add, edit, and browse data that describe social-ecological systems.
While only registered members of the SESMAD team can add or edit data, casual users can explore each of the above-mentioned tabs and can browse through the variables, cases, and theories involved. Every object in the database can be viewed on its own page in a wiki-like fashion.
If you would like to use this database or any of its content for your own research you are free to do so. If you do, please include the following citation in your work:

I'm new to firearms so I would appreciate some advice on cleaning kits. I'm a cancer survivor (exposure to AO and diesel fuel) so I avoid as many petroleum products as I can. MPro7 and Gunzilla both indicate they are non-toxic so they seem like good options for me.
I found two kits on Amazon ---
Amazon.com: Hoppe's M-Pro 7 Gun Cleaner - Tactical Cleaning Kit, Clam: Sports & Outdoors
Amazon.com: Otis .22-45 Caliber Pistol Cleaning System: Sports & Outdoors
What are the advantages/disadvantages to the rods vs the cables?
Others prefer Jags. Being new, I have no experience so any suggestion or recommendation from the more experienced folks is greatly appreciated.

Can someone please make Steve Brown stop?
For the Steve Brown doubters, you should turn on the radio. Phil Johnson is dropping some great info tonight.
So just before the half, Hayward was like 1-10 and Locke and Phil Johnson were talking about how Haywards shot looked off. A few minutes later Locke was talking about Hayward last night after the game trying to write a term paper for a spanish class at Butler.
Johnson was not impressed. "Hmmph, maybe Gordon should spend more time concentrating on basketball."
I agree.
Sean Elliott spent most of Spurs-Jazz talking about Gobert as if he were Godzilla. And he wasn't really wrong.
Why can't Burks makes free throws? Mind boggling....
Phx has shot 37% on the road and they are still in this game. Sad.
Sean Elliott spent most of Spurs-Jazz talking about Gobert as if he were Godzilla. And he wasn't really wrong.
15 minutes for Favors
11 minutes for Kanter
Randy Foye is a killer! Either he kills the other team with his shooting, or he kills his own team with his shooting!
I don't know if I want to laugh, yell, or cry right now!
Jazz are playing 4 against 5 right now. Tinsley cannot score a point!
i just saw foye's stats......get this ****ing guy out of here.

Mark your calendar and set your DVR boxes!! On Tuesday October 7th at 8:30pm EST, I'm going to be on the Emeril Green cooking show!! Yes, it is only for about 2 minutes and 3 seconds, but still, one of the best experiences of my life getting to teach Emeril all about gluten-free cooking. During this episode, Emeril will help a newlywed couple learn to cook delicious gluten-free food. The wife, Pamela, was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and wants to make sure she can make her new hubby awesome food! Emeril takes Pam on a shopping trip through the new Whole Foods store in Virginia and just happen to bump into me in the bakery! You'll learn to make Pizza, Gazpacho, Italian Salad, and Pasta with fresh mozzarella, grape tomatoes and basil!! And, the best part is that I think Emeril might actually take my advice to drink Redbridge beer...but we'll just have to wait and see if that scene made the final cut! So be sure to tune in to Emeril Green... Tuesday October 7th at 8:30pm!! And, yes...it did take me about 3 hours to photoshop the photo below...gotta love it! |

Your child has a right to attend and succeed in a great public school.
Regardless of income, ethnicity, family circumstances, disability, or school readiness, all children are entitled to an education that will help them reach their full academic, professional, and personal potential. As a parent or guardian, you are the best advocate to ensure that your child receives a quality education.
Help your child succeed in school
While all parents want their children to do well in school, many parents don't realize that the role they assume in personally monitoring and guiding their child's schooling is essential to academic success. Today, parents can no longer afford to take a hands-off approach to their children's education. Unlike a generation ago, students are facing an increasingly complex and challenging world that requires a more skilled workforce with an education or training beyond high school.
Parents and guardians have a legal and moral right to demand that their child receive a quality education. You have a right to expect that your children have up-to-date textbooks and computers that will prepare them for today's globally competitive economy. The quality of the tools and resources available in your local school is a good indicator of how much administrators and the school board are investing in their education. So, examine your child's school books and ask for new or replacement books if necessary.
But new books alone cannot guarantee achievement. Students need a safe and nurturing learning environment and small classes with a low teacher to student ratio. Unfortunately, too many school districts have allowed school buildings to deteriorate over the years and failed to keep up with increasing student enrollment. In fact, the condition of school facilities shows students how much adults really value education. School buildings should be welcoming and well-maintained with a modern cafeteria, gymnasium, hygienic rest rooms, a well-stocked library, and a wellness room. Communities must hold politicians accountable for the condition of their local schools by demanding adequate funding for schools.
Families have a major role in encouraging academic success. Adults must grab every opportunity to let children know that they have high expectations for their education. During daily conversations, adults should help children set goals and encourage them to create a plan of action to meet those goals— whether it is getting up in the morning on time or perfect classroom attendance, every small step taken helps build momentum to academic success.
Encourage learning at home
Parents must not only supervise homework, but create a comfortable location for doing homework. For starters, turn off the television set and eliminate any other distractions such as loud music. Simple steps like making sure there is sufficient work surface to spread out books or providing proper lighting, school supplies, and having a dictionary on hand can make homework easier to complete.
Helping your child develop organizational skills is the foundation for academic success. Make sure your child has a schedule planner for school and writes down homework assignments daily. Parents should help their child prioritize homework by deadline and by the amount of time required to complete an assignment. By breaking large tasks into smaller ones, assignments become more manageable and your child is less likely to become overwhelmed and procrastinate.

Comments about Trailer Valet Jack / Dolly:
When originally received, tires would not hold air. Contacted customer service and they immediately shipped 2 new tires and tubes. Everything works as advertised. I wish I had found this years ago. It's a real back saver.
- Easy to use
- Versatile
- Not Great In Sandy Soil
Best Uses
- Boat Trailer On Asphalt
Comments about Trailer Valet Jack / Dolly:
I use it to relocate a 3000 lb boat on a boat trailer while in the yard. It is simple to use and effectively moves the boat and trailer as long as it is on cement or asphalt but once it goes into the sandy ground of Cape Cod the tire sinks in and spins. A wider tire or additional tires might solve this problem.
- Easy to use
- Works great

Comments about Trailer Valet Jack / Dolly:

I was not able to move my boat/trailer on my own until this product.
hope it lasts cause it fixed my issue!

Comments about Trailer Valet Jack / Dolly:
Well worth the money, delivers on everything it says, the only draw back was the directions need to be clearer, i still have one bolt that came with the package and it shows up in the pictures of the directions but it does not tell you what to do with it. It is currently installed on a 2007 Q8 Tahoe, boat and trailer weight is 4800lbs and i can move it by myself now
- Better Control backing in
- Better value than others
- Can Withstand Use

- Only manual crank
Best Uses
- After your friends ditch
- Backing in tight spaces
- Garage
Comments about Trailer Valet Jack / Dolly:
It was easy to install, and I left my old jack on my trailer. I imagine that someone would want to take it. The nice thing is that it is compact in size and light enough to toss into the garage once hitched. But it does tilt up if you want to leave it on there. The real use for me is backing my trailer back into my side yard. Before I had to come in at a jack knife angle, since it's so narrow, but now I can get it close, unhitch and crank it back in while adjusting the angle via the trailer valet. Plus the brake lets me go back and put down the tire chucks.
The bad things are if I was going up the whole driveway, my arm would get tired from cranking, it wouldn't work on a large toy hauler since it's weight limit is 5K lbs, but that's great for my 19' utility trailer.
Compared to other trailer movers that are motorized, this is way way more affordable and safer imo.

We move a 21 ft Yamaha jet boat on a dual wheel trailer in and out of our garage but must make a more than 90 degree turn to get it in or out. We normally have to literally kick the wheel on our current swivel jack to get it to turn - which has resulted in failure and now we are replacing. Will this Jack make the turn? It does not look like the wheel will rotate and that was not one of the demonstrations in the video.Asked on 9/7/2014 by shannen from canton Ga1 answer
Hello Shannen,
Yes. The Trailer Valet wheel has the ability to turn 180 degrees. However, tandem axle trailers have more resistance than single axle trailers, so please use caution when when turning the trailer.
Thank you,
SteveAnswered on 9/9/2014 by Anonymous
will this work with a 20 ft boat on a single axle trailer on a non cement area (mostly dirt)?Asked on 5/29/2014 by Karla1 answer
Hello Karla,
Yes. The Valet Jack will work on your single axle trailer. If the dirt is very soft or loose it may not work as well as it is intended too.
Thank you,
SteveAnswered on 5/29/2014 by Anonymous
I need this to move a 17ft. bass boat in and out of a parking area that is too tight for vehicle hook up. Roughly 10 feet in distance, on about a 15% incline. Will it do the job?
ThanksAsked on 12/17/2013 by Wade from Crewe, VA1 answer
It depends on what the trailer/tongue weights are on your boat, but as long as it is under the 5000lb max trailer weight and 500lb max tongue weight, this item should work perfect for you. It will certainly make steering the trailer in and out of a tight parking spot much easier. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact our technical assist line at 1-800-334-6541 and someone will be more than happy to help you further.Answered on 12/19/2013 by Product Expert from Overton's
