Oscar Wilde 370.
(photo credit:Sarony, Napoleon)
We can only speculate about whether Meir Dagan, ex-chief of Mossad (counterpart
to America's CIA), and Yuval Diskin, exchief of Shin Bet (counterpart to
America's FBI), are at all conversant with Oscar Wilde's
wit. Unfortunately, we've no way to evaluate their erudition. But on the
off chance that they're better- read than the average honcho, we might ponder
whether they subscribe to Wilde's insight that "the only thing worse than being
talked about is not being talked about."Wilde's dictum might go a long
way to accounting for Dagan's and Diskin's otherwise inscrutable gabbiness,
which might be no more than the product of an apparently uncontrollable urge to
generate headlines. This may be in keeping with a local penchant alluded to by
the colloquial Hebrew catchphrase for volubility: larutz lesaper lakhevreh. It
roughly translates to "run and tell your friends."But that may be no
more than an intricate ruse they want us to fall for. Their hypothetical
nothing-is-what-it-seems hoax could be in keeping with the Hebrew semi-slang idiom
hafuch al hafuch – literally "opposite on opposite"– i.e. not what you expect,
the opposite of what you assume, creating an impression that's the opposite of
what immediately looks likely.Both the above pearls of our insular
culture may contain some relevance to putting Dagan's and Diskin's spasms of
loquaciousness into some semblance of context.It may well be that both
our former top guns are giving vent to run-of-the-mill run-and-tell inclinations
so pervasive in our minuscule milieu. Most our ex-generals and other security
services higher-ups find it hard to find themselves out of the loop.Our
undersized arena bursts with an overabundance of posturing Napoleonic knock-offs
– cocky military types and prolific know-it-alls – who presume to exclusively
possess what it takes to dictate Israel's agenda.Hubris, testosterone,
bigheadedness, braggadocio and whatnot impel them to make noise hot on the heels
of their formal retirement. Paraphrasing Descartes, their motto appears to be "I
babble, therefore I am."But the "opposite-on-opposite" scenario is far
more appealing. Indeed, it's downright comforting to believe that Diskin and
Dagan are sophisticated performers in a carefully scripted plotline aimed at
swaying the whole world to accept the authenticity of the very facade against
which they ostensibly squeal at the top of their lungs. In other words, rather
than hawk sour grapes, they're in actual fact altruistic actors.It would
be reassuring to trust that these two aren't cast in the mold of assorted
self-important omniscients who proliferate in our puny provincial pond, where
they're prone to shoot off their mouths in the informal contest for which
proverbial rooster crows loudest.It's nice to imagine that the
proclivity to prattle is part of a grand cunning scheme, a clever disinformation
ploy to obfuscate, leave the enemy wondering, guessing and unsure, to throw the
whole watching world into a tizzy, to convince all and sundry that we're led by
a trigger-happy lot.The convoluted subtext is that, if not somehow
placated, we might nuke the neighborhood. This image could be essential
to induce fellow democracies to comprehend that something effective had better
be done about Iran because we're losing patience with the international
community's dalliance. The West's inaction is liable to force us to step into
the breach ourselves.Dagan and Diskin, obviously no novices in sly
stratagems, would be the wiliest choice to persuade the world to get on Iran's
case because otherwise the field would be left to Binyamin Netanyahu and Ehud
Barak, whom both exchiefs assiduously build up as a demented and dangerous
pair.In crafty collusion, the two Ds hype the scary factor of Bibi and
Barak (the two Bs).The supposed subterfuge might not be outlandishly
implausible, on condition we accept the premise that real life can be as
elaborately tricky as espionage yarns. Why else, we may be tempted to ask, would
the Ds choose this especially sensitive juncture for their frenzied verbal
regurgitation? By the scales of conspiracy theory devotees this cannot be
accidental timing. The Ds, moreover, were until recently the guardians of our
deepest national secrets. It's more than a little unexpected for them, of all
ex-hotshots, to blab in order to carp.Otherwise, how are they better
than Anat Kamm? For those who forgot, she's serving time for having duplicated
2,200 documents, while she worked in the OC Central Command's office as a young
conscript, hiding her haul, hanging on to it long after her discharge and
finally entrusting it all to Haaretz reporter Uri Blau who absconded with
it.True, the Ds didn't have to fiddle with computer files. But spilling
the beans is spilling the beans, the modus operandi notwithstanding. Even
staffers in private business firms must sign undertakings not to tattle about
confidential company data after their employment has ended.However, like
Kamm, the Ds glory in the pose of courageous whistle-blowers desperately
defending the public's right to know. Here too pseudo-moral narcissism is lauded
by this country's domineering left-leaning media as the epitome of politically
correct bon ton.Not only did the Ds, like Kamm, thumb their noses at
their elementary obligations, but their cheerleaders now tell us that, like her,
they did so out of conviction that they know best what's best for us.Yet
do they know better? Did they discover Gilad Schalit's whereabouts for five
years right under their noses? Did they foresee a smidgen of the upheaval
misnamed as the Arab Spring? Their list of failures or not-quite-successes is
too long to inspire uncritical adulation.We could kiss our national
interests goodbye if each member of our defense hierarchy – regardless of status
– were to decide that he/she is empowered to determine national policies and/or
subvert endeavors not to his/her liking. That may be precisely what assorted
varieties of leftist anarchists fervently desire. Their goal is to destabilize,
even abolish, all authority. To that end, the Ds, like Kamm a couple of years
ago, are an absolute boon.The spinmeisters embraced Kamm as a youthful
idealist purportedly entitled to impose upon Israel's democratic collective what
she deemed appropriate. These very spinmeisters now genuflect to the Ds'
professed professionalism.They wouldn't gripe without reason, we're
told. But why did the Ds conceal their mistrust of the Bs for so long? If they
were certain that we entrusted our government into inept hands, why didn't they
alert us earlier? Why did they keep working with incompetents for so long? Why
did they seek extended tenures and why did they accept them? Why didn't they
resign in protest in real time, which would have been the honorable move to
make? To grumble from the sidelines is too much like what many of us do in
Friday evening gossip and fix-the-world sessions. The Ds shouldn't be
automatically absolved of all ulterior motives. They provided no proof, only
innuendo. The fact that the insinuations in question came from ex-big
wheels hardly renders them infallible.The Ds don't know anything more
than their erstwhile bosses. The Ds had already briefed the Bs on
whatever intelligence they gathered. If the two twosomes are indeed at
loggerheads, it can only be over differing analyses of said
information. Here the Ds' opinion isn't necessarily superior. It's an
opinion.This is where things get dicey. Do the Ds really imply
that their opinion deserves to override that of members of a democratically
elected government? If so, they're in effect suggesting that spymasters should
by right and rank call the shots or at least instruct the voters how to cast
their ballots. How will the Ds react if Netanyahu is reelected? The Ds'
conceit, to resort to understatement, smells bad. The tendentious
commentators and talking heads who avidly boost the Ds need to think about the
ramifications of backing security chiefs over elected
representatives.Beyond this issue of elementary civic hygiene looms the
Iranian danger. If the tantalizing "opposite on opposite" twist of spy fiction
hasn't bizarrely manifested in this particular tawdry episode, then Dagan and
Diskin are actually pushing us into a military conflict with Iran – the very
conflict against which they rail.One of Netanyahu's and Barak's most
incontrovertible achievements is denting the indifference abroad to Iran's
machinations. To no small measure this was achieved by the threat of an Israeli
preemptive strike. Winning the ear of the US and the EU is utterly indispensable
at this point.Only concerted international action can replace an Israeli
attack. The international community will do nothing if it doubts our assessments
regarding Tehran or our determination to foil the ayatollahs.The Ds'
irresponsible nattering weakens Israel's cause overseas and thereby undermines
the likelihood that Iran's nuclear project can be defused without use of force.
The Ds' superfluous chatter jeopardizes the international coalition against
Iran, demoralizes Israelis and emboldens Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.Do
acclaimed experts like the Ds fail to understand this? Or has frustrated
ambition and cynicism blinded their judgment? If so, it's time for us all to pay
heed to two more of Wilde's peerless aphorisms: "Ambition is the last refuge of
failure" and "a cynic is one who knows the price of everything and the value of

We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Yes, it's DRM on subscription, but solving that problem is really outside Microsofts scope. Believe me, NO software company wants to waste time writing and defending DRM software. They do it because the alternative is not being able to sell stuff, and in some cases (like video games) there is no equivalent of the open source model to fill in the gaps with alternative revenue streams.
Seriously. DRM is just a time and money sink. It's necessary because it pays for itself many times over, when done correctly (note: a cracked drm that requires exotic and annoying workarounds will still fulfil its goal). If everybody could be trusted to buy the things they use, it wouldn't be necessary, and the time spent on it would be spent on improving the product instead. But we don't live in such a world.
If we had an economic model in which anybody could copy to their hearts content, and the content creators still got paid commensurate to their products popularity - then you wouldn't need DRM. But it's pretty hard to imagine how that'd work.

what kind of tree to plant?
greyfox39(z7 NM)March 22, 2005
We live in the Rio Rancho, NM area, and want to plant a shade tree in the back yard lawn. We are NOT gardeners, and need something that is not too easy to kill, and don't want something with large leaves. It should be a fast grower, and able to withstand the watering of the lawn, and we don't want it leaking sap or cotton.
Any ideas?

Dean Norris Among Stars in History's Miniseries 'Sons of Liberty'
Hans Zimmer will create the title theme for the new six-hour mini.
History is moving forward with Sons of Liberty, setting an all-star cast for its six-hour miniseries.
The Revolutionary War miniseries, first announced more than a year ago, follows a defiant and radical group of young men -- Sam Adams, John Adams, Paul Revere, John Hancock and Joseph Warren -- as they band together in secrecy to change the course of history and make America a nation.
Ben Barnes (The Chronicles of Narnia) stars as Sam Adams, a natural-born leader with charisma and a penchant for mischief; Ryan Eggold (The Black List) is set as Warren, a doctor and man of conscience and integrity; Michael Raymond-James (Once Upon a Time) is Revere, a veteran who wholeheartedly joins forces with Adams; Rafe Spall (Prometheus) will portray Hancock, the wealthiest man in Boston at the time; and Henry Thomas (Gangs of New York) is John Adams, a lawyer and the conservative, smart cousin of Sam Adams. Marton Csokas (The Lord of the Rings) will be Gen. Thomas Gage, who is sent to handle the unrest in Boston with a military response; Emily Berrington (24: Live Another Day) will be Margaret Gage; and Dean Norris (Breaking Bad, Under the Dome) rounds out the cast as the brilliant yet mischievous diplomat Benjamin Franklin.
STORY: The 'Bible' Effect and the Resurrection of TV Miniseries
Hans Zimmer will create the title theme for the miniseries, which begins production in the summer. Sons of Liberty hails from A+ E Studios and Stephen David Entertainment, the production company behind History's The Men Who Built America, its eight-hour mini that focused on John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie and J.P. Morgan.
Kari Skogland (Boardwalk Empire, Vikings) will direct. Stephen David and David C. White penned the series. Russ McCarroll and Elaine Frontain Bryant will exec produce for History, while David and Matthew Gross will oversee for Stephen David Entertainment.
Here's History's official logline: "Calling themselves the Sons of Liberty, they light the spark that ignited a revolution. Though their names have become American legend, this group of young rebels didn't start off as noble patriots in powdered wigs. They were a new American generation of young men from varied backgrounds, struggling to find purpose in their lives. They were looking for equality, but they found something greater: Independence."
For History, Sons of Liberty becomes the cabler's latest miniseries. It joins the star-studded Texas Rising and follows Hatfields & McCoys and The Bible. History -- among other broadcast and cable networks -- has used miniseries to attract top talent and cache in a bid to break through the clutter and draw live viewers in the DVR era. A formal premiere date for Sons of Liberty has not yet been announced.

Need help choosing a hardy acid citrus
I live a little too far north for lemons and limes, but I would like to grow a good hardy substitute. Old time Floridians are said to have used hardier sour oranges like lemons. One of my gardening books recommends Calamondin as an acid citrus, and "limequat" as another. Has anyone tried any of these? Any recommendations or suggestions? Thank you.
Have grown calamondin in pots for the past few years (both as houseplants and outdoors) in Portland, Oregon. They are both quite small but yielded several dozen fruits this year. The juice is excellent--no bitterness, very tart. Where you live planting them in the ground and regular fertilizing should result in heavier crops.
Be aware that there is confusion on the scientific name and there are several cultivars being sold. Get one with fruit already on it to be safe. There are some very impressive pictures on the Web if you research "calamondin..."
I have not lived in Florida in almost 20 years, but I have lived in both Tallahassee and Clearwater. I seem to recall some kinds of cold-hardy citrus in the Tallahassee area. I now live in south Texas, Latitude 28°. I planted 5 citrus trees in my yard the beginning of April, and they are all bearing fruit. I found several of the trees which were cold-hardy with one being a Cold-Hardy Meyers Lemon. You might see if you can find some cold-hardy citrus in Florida.
There are LOTS of citrus varieties cold hardy enough for zone 9. Heck, there are avocado varieties that will grow there (Mexican avocados, the littler ones). And there is a lot of interest in this now. Do a little Net searching. I think you will find quite a bit of information. (FYI: until the disasterous freeze of 1835 (1830?) Florida's citrus growing was concentrated way up there, by the Spanish.)
Thank you for the responses. I live in a very difficult zone--the 9A/9B border, inland. According to what I've read, the trouble with growing citrus here is not that it gets too cold for the trees, although it does occassionally do that, but it gets too cold before the fruits ripen. Anything that ripens December or later is iffy. So early ripening citrus, or citrus with fruits much of the year, is what I'm looking for. According to my gardening book, these are mainly satsumas, limequats, kumquats, and calamondins, although there others.
Larry Gene, does your calamondin have and orangy or tangeriny taste? I've never tried one. I'll definitely taste the fruit before I buy one.

I think Ivan is trying to cover every country and terrritory in the world, which is not bad in itself, it gives us insights into cultures around the world. For example, Armenia is a place where flesh for Westerners must be really cheap and smack my bitch up is cool.

Juliet Beckett believes in destiny. When she moves into Greywethers, a beautiful 16th-century farmhouse, she suspects that more than coincidence has brought her there.
The locals are warm and welcoming, especially the eligible squire of Crofton Hall. Yet beneath the ordinaries, Julia senses a haunting sadness about her new home. Then she learns of Mariana, a beautiful young woman who lived there 300 years ago. It seems history has been waiting for Julia....
©2010 Susanna Kearsley (P)2010 Oakhill Publishing
"An intense and gripping novel that is almost impossible to put down. The reader would be well advised to seek out a comfortable chair to experience an exceptional read." (The Winnipeg Free Press)
I am a Company Rep in Central Qld. I travel around 60,000klms a year and rely on my Audiobooks to keep me company on my Country Trips!
"I was hooked when I heard the Narrator's voice!"
Although purchasing the Book originally for my Wife, I decided to have a break from my usual Seafaring & Crime Audiobooks.
Well! What a surprise this one turned out to be!
Carolyn Bonnyman's intimate reading style made me feel that she was sitting opposite me over a cup of coffee and telling me this tale in an almost whispered voice!
Her ability to enhance the somewhat eerie setting just with her voice was quite captivating.
Although I would not normally have selected such a Book for myself, I am so glad I did!
"Didn't see that coming!"
When I first started listening to this book I struggled with the constant changes in time, but as the book progressed and I relaxed into the story I revelled in all the twists and turns. Mariana is a book that you can't multi-task with - it demands full concentration - a lapse of a few minutes will leave you wondering just what happened and how you missed it. It is a book that needs to be read a couple of times to fully understand and appreciate its underlying intricacies. The narration of the book is excellent and flows easily around each character.
"By far my favorite romance writer"
I am never disappointed by Susanna Kearsley. Her writing is superb! There is always some mystery woven into the romance. With an ending to make any Jane Austin Lover swoon.
"Wonderful escape"
I particularly enjoyed this book becauseit was narrated beautifully and was a gentle way to relax to a story that took me back in time. I often don't get teary in books but it was difficult not to feel compassion for the characters in this book
"Not your typical time travel"
creative, romantic, satisying
Carolyn Bonnyman's voice is magical. So gentle and intimate, with great accents. She doesn't over-do character voice changes - makes it all so seemless.
"Love love loved it!"
Right up there with the best. Absolutely loved this book
I've nothing to compare it with so if you have any recommendations???
Beautiful reader, great voices and well emoted
I could feel all of the emotions - so well presented
The ending took me completely by surprise, I had to listen to it again.
"Terrific read"
I very much enjoyed this book. The story was well written, the plot was interesting and the characters had depth and personality.
"Nice Romantic Tale"
Good story, strong characters. Unfortunately, the ending left some unanswered questions.
Even though the ending could have been better I enjoyed the book and the story held my interest.
"Great story, good narration"
Narration was good, only this is it was a little too soft at times. The story was very good - I didn't see the end coming and that's a great story in my book. This is the second book I've listened to by this author and this was an even better story than the last one... I'm picking my next listen now . YWorth the credit
Mystery and Fantasy Lover
"Endless love!"
Love is fulfilled across the chasm of time. The story keeps the listener's interest in every chapter. The voice perfect.
"Interesting time-slip tale"
Julia Becket moves to the country from London, and finds her perfect home in the shape of Greywethers a 17th century cottage.
Right from the start we get the sense that the house chose Julia rather than the other way round, and soon Julia realizes all is not quite as it seems. She starts having strange experiences seemingly transported back to the past and into the life of a woman called Mariana.
I quite enjoyed this story, and liked the characters and gentle love story. However I only gave it three stars, This is primarily because of the narrator, Carolyn Bonnyman. I found her voice too monotone, and lacking emotion, especially when there was a lot of dialogue. When different characters were speaking there wasn't enough difference made between them and this could be a bit confusing, as in a pub scene when there were four people all having a conversation together.
I still enjoyed it though and found the story entertaining, with enough mystery about it to keep me interested.
This audo book was really great, Susanna Kearsley is one of my favourtite authors and to listen to it being read was so much more atmospheric, it was as if i was actually there. I recommend this book, you will not be dissapointed.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Greece's Golden Dawn leader Nikolaos Mihaloliakos 370.

A worrying trend is sweeping Europe. Extremist parties on both the far-Left and
the far-Right are on the rise, apparently exploiting the economic turmoil that
has swept across the debt-ridden continent. The co-opting of extreme
solutions to the Muslim immigration issues also seems to be playing a
part.In France, a number of anti-Zionist parties on the far-Left made a
strong showing in the first round of voting in April. And in the wake of
socialist François Hollande's victory over Nicolas Sarkozy in Sunday's
presidential race, there is a real possibility that these parties will be
included in Hollande's government coalition.Richard Prasquier, the
president of the CRIF umbrella group of French Jewry, has warned of the need for
caution regarding the rise of the Left in France. While Hollande, has made the
right public comments in condemning anti-Semitism and professing admiration of
Israel, some of the parties who are supposed to be partners in Hollande's
coalition "are not friends of Israel," he said.These Trotskyites,
anarchists and Greens, who succeeded in garnering 15% of the vote in the first
round of voting, have collaborated with Islamists. Shimon Samuels, Director for
International Relations of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, has testified to seeing
representatives of these parties "marching with Hezbollah banners, incongruously
invoking Allahu Aqbar" in demonstrations in France and outside the
anti-globalization World Social Forum in Brazil, and in India.Cause for
additional worry in France is the surprising success of Marine Le Pen's National
Front, which received 18% of about 11 million votes in the first round. And more
support for the extreme Left and Right is expected in the upcoming legislative
elections and in the regional and local ballots.Meanwhile, last Thursday
in London's mayoral election, rabidly anti-Zionist Ken Livingstone – who has
excused suicide attacks and accused Israel of ethnic cleansing – nearly defeated
rightwing incumbent Boris Johnson. Particularly worrying, was the precedent set.
Livingstone managed to receive 48% of the vote on a campaign that appeared to be
based on catering to one million Muslim votes by alienating some 200,000 Jews.
It might not have worked for Livingstone, but promoting an anti-Israel position
to garner Muslim support could become a tactic in other cities where there is a
high percentage of Muslim residents.In Greece, the neo-Fascist Golden
Dawn party is poised to win 7% of parliament seats, easily passing the 3%
threshold. In the 2009 elections Golden Dawn received just 0.29% of the vote. In
a June article on Greece's political crisis that appeared in Foreign Policy,
Golden Dawn was seen as having "no prospect of winning parliamentary
seats."But as support for mainstream parties in Greece has waned, the
space for the fringe has widened. Greeks are increasingly attracted to parties
that promise to crack down on crime and the migrants who supposedly cause
it.Inevitably, the rise of extremism – whether on the Right or on the
Left – is bad for the Jews. Benjamin Albalas, head of the Jewish community in
Athens voiced his concern over the rise of parties like Golden Dawn. He noted
that while there have not been any attacks against Greece's estimated 5,000
Jews, he was pessimistic: "Now they are attacking Muslims, immigrants,
homosexuals and foreign workers, but not the Jewish people. Not
yet."Recent developments in Europe point to a worrying trend of far-Left
and far-Right empowerment.As was the case in the wake of World War I,
Europeans' support for extremist parties seems less about identification with
their goals and values and more to do with punishing mainstream candidates for
perceived mistakes. But even a throwaway vote for radicalism is liable to grant
these extremists undeserved respectability and legitimacy.Can it be that
Europeans have so quickly forgotten the lessons of the recent past?

Quite a bit has to be taken into consideration when choosing a new Pistol Holsters, but one of the most popular and familiar types is a belt holster. As the name implies, belt holsters attach to your belt for an exceptionally comfortable fit. And Browning Belt Holsters are unquestionably among the best. Browning Belt Holsters are frequently used as duty holsters, though police officers can also decide on other options. The majority of of us, when we think of a classic holster, visualize belt holsters. They have a long history of proven and versatile use, and Browning has an incredible reputation of producing exceptionally high quality ones. We love them. The draw you get because of the angle and height of a belt holster is both natural and simple to learn. The Browning options shown here are among the best anywhere, with fantastic retention and phenomenal looks employing the best materials, often including nylon, kydex, and, naturally, leather. We sell tons of holsters for a lot of different handguns. If you're sure you'd like a belt holster but aren't sure which model to choose, contact us and one of our industry experts (who have many years of working experience with all types of holsters) will be happy to help you out. Good luck in your search for a great Browning Belt Holsters!

A Christmas Carol gets a revamp as Strawbridge's prepares to join the ghosts of Christmas past.
The significant effort-on the part of Daub's team and the store itself-is a positive sign that the exhibit has a future even as the store's days as a Strawbridge's wane. Earlier this year Federated Department Stores obtained Strawbridge's parent, the May Department Stores Co., and will convert the Market Street flagship into a Macy's next year.
But the store's financial commitment is especially noteworthy considering the state of retail holiday celebrations. Lord & Taylor offers a pared-down version of the famous Wanamaker light and organ show, and remnants of the long-gone Lit Brothers' Enchanted Colonial Village are on display at the Please Touch Museum. And with malls trumping downtown department stores, generic Santa displays have become the norm.
But that homogeneity is almost comforting to Daub.
"It would be sad to see this go, but my instinct is that the show will be around for a while. It's one-of-a-kind," he says. "I think it's unfair to even compare this to a mall display. We put our hearts and souls into this."

Let's see your "E" photos!
(BTW, you all don't have to wait for me to start a new letter - If you have something to share and want to go to the next letter, go for it!;-)
OK, lots of pictures to post on this one! I love my echinacea!

Beautiful flowers!
Aka Margo I absolutely love your 'Sunset' Echinacea and Green envy and Echinops 'Artic Glow' Where do you get those I haven't run across them yet in my searches.
Julie, what is that you have behind to the left of your ruby star? It's probably obvious, but like I said I am so new at this I can't identify too many plants yet. I just bought the Ruby star myself and am trying to plan what else I need to get to put around coneflowers hmmm..... maybe I should have just started a new thread
The plant behind the Echinecea, 'Ruby Star' is a Sedum, but the name isn't labeled on my map, so I don't know what cultivar it is. I know it's not 'Autumn Joy', but something else pink. It will bloom later, after the Purple cone fls are finished.
I ordered both the Green Envy and the Artic Glow Echinops. The Echinops I recieved from Bluestone Perennials last year and the Green Envy (and a lot of my other coneflowers) came from Garden Crossings (whom has awesome plants) this year.

Hydraulic fracturing may always be a controversial mining process, but at least everyone can now agree on a definition for "fracking," the word that has become the most typically used in discussions about it.
Fracking joined more than 100 other words added to "Miriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary" for its 2014 edition as the dictionary's editors update the publication to keep up with the ever-evolving English language.
Most of the attention for this year's additions focused on those focused on social networking — such as "selfie" and "hashtag" and, for that matter, the phrase "social networking" itself.
Fracking is now officially defined as: "The injection of fluid into shale beds at high pressure in order to free up petroleum resources (such as oil or natural gas)." The process has been behind a massive increase in oil and gas production in North America, used in shale field production in North Dakota, Texas and the new region falling into the states of Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
And, by the way, in the new edition, fracking will come right after the definition for "fracas: a noisy argument or fight," which somehow seems appropriate.

Lorenz Willig: The builder as grandfather
"I can tell you how he lost that fingertip." Bill Willig sits across the table from me at the Cracker Barrel. He has photos, documents and, best of all, memories of the man who built my house, Lorenz Willig. The fingertip's not a surprising story – a moment's distraction in the workshop; Lorenz brought the […] [Read More]
One storm, one tree, two ideas of childhood
The last of the old tree is gone. The guy with the grinder came and removed the ragged stump two weeks ago while I was out shopping. I got home to find the corner of my yard raked strangely smooth, as if the tree had never been there at all. Our property came with just […] [Read More]
Building the American Dream
Sometimes it's the smallest thing that hooks you into a story. Something as small as the top joint of your index finger. Lorenz Willig was missing his. I don't know how Willig, the man who built my house – along with scores of other houses in Albany's early 20th-century neighborhoods – lost the top of […] [Read More]
The first time I saw Albany it scared me. It looked dirty, crumbling, crowded.

Silence and memory: What became of the Scotts
Catherine Scott and Beryl Scott Glover never knew John A. Scott, their grandfather. He died before they were born. But it was more than time that separated them from their father's father. Though John Scott's 1935 obituary says he died at home on North Main, family members say that's not what they were told: He […] [Read More]
Brief presence, lasting impression: The Scotts, Part Three.
When John A. Scott died in 1935, his obituary appeared as a news item on page A3, not bundled with the day's other death notices. This prominent, well-connected man was one of the builders of Albany's 20th-century neighborhoods. He didn't live long in my house, but he lived here first. Scott seemed a restless fellow.

Part Two: Toilet paper, oyster pails, and bridle paths
John A. Scott, first owner of my home, was born in 1867. His parents were immigrants from Northern Ireland, and father Robert was employed at the gas works. John was a middle child; his mother, Margaret, would in all bear seven children, though only three were still alive by the turn of the century. The […] [Read More]
Earliest echoes: John and Mary Scott
Five foot 11, fair complexion, blue eyes, dark gray hair: That was how they described John Scott on his passport application in 1918. In the passport photo, his eyes are a little tired, his smile a little dopey. But it's an accessible face. It's the kind of face that translates easily to the modern age; […] [Read More]

Bandai Namco has revealed a few different upgrade options for PC Dark Souls 2 players who want to pick up the forthcoming enhanced edition, Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin.

Dirty Bomb's lengthy development a reaction to troubled Brink launch, says Splash Damage chairman
Multiplayer experts Splash Damage have definitely taken their time with Dirty Bomb, the team-based shooter that they first announced back in 2012, and has only just entered a Closed Beta on Steam.

Vicking - Nothing but trouble
PeterM123May 21, 2013
I strongly urge anyone thinking about purchasing Viking appliances not to do so. Just over six years ago, I purchased every appliance, including a microwave and barbecue, and I have had nothing but trouble with every one of them. Right now my refrigerator has to be rebuilt ($1,200 in labor). The freezer has gone multiple times. DO NOT BUY VIKING.
I'd be mad too. Viking isn't exactly cheap. You'd hope to get more than a few years of trouble-free operation. Although I don't know the expected life of modern appliances. Maybe we're both expecting too much.
Was Viking unresponsive to your complaints?

Legends biographies
A biography is a description or account of someone's life and the times, which is usually published in the form of a book or an essay, or in some other form, such as a film. An autobiography is a biography of a person's life written or told by that same person. A biography is more than a list of impersonal facts (education, work, relationships, and death), it also portrays the subject's experience of those events. Biography presents the subject's story, highlighting various aspects of his or her life, including intimate details of experiences, and may include an analysis of the subject's personality.

Week 21: at New England Patriots
Mark and Joe say: Neutral matchup. Russell Wilson survived one of the worst passing performances of NFL playoff history during the NFC Conference Championship - he was awful for the first 57 minutes of regulation (ending the day with 14/29 for 209 yards passing, one TD and four interceptions thrown, with five sacks taken for -25 yards, nine other hits taken and a fumble - he posted 7/25/1 rushing), but managed to make two clutch throws after his teammates got Seattle into a miraculous OT period, finding Doug Baldwin for a 35-yard first down reception and then Jermaine Kearse for the game-winning 35-yard TD before the Packers could touch the football during the extra period. It was easily Wilson's worst game of the entire season and post-season (and probably his worst game as a passer during his NFL career). Basically, there is nowhere to go but up for Wilson in the Super Bowl. Usually, Wilson is very reliable and steady from week to week - we think the Conference Championship melt-down was an aberration and not the beginning of a trend for Seattle's signal caller. Doug Baldwin was reliable for Wilson two weeks ago (nine targets for 6/106/0 receiving), but Jermaine Kearse (six for 1/35/1) and Luke Willson (five for 2/11/0) struggled to accomplish much against the Packers - Wilson's tough day at the office contributed to the difficulties endured by Kearse and Willson. The Patriots finished regular season ranked 17th vs. opposing passers, averaging 239.8 net passing yards allowed per game, with 24 passing scores surrendered vs. 16 interceptions (tied for 12th in the NFL) and 40 sacks (ted for 13th) generated over 16 games. This is a so-so bunch of defenders on their best weeks. Joe Flacco wasn't sacked at all during the Divisional Round of the playoffs, with 28/45 for 292 yards passing, four TDs and two interceptions thrown at Foxboro. Andrew Luck fared much worse there during the Conference Championship, with 12/33 for 126 net yards passing, zero TDs and two interceptions thrown (Luck wasn't sacked at all during the game, either). The Patriots enter the Super Bowl off a strong showing in this phase of the game. On balance, this looks like a neutral matchup, with neither side holding a big edge over the other.
