A government-appointed inquiry has delivered a damning assessment of Japanese nuclear regulators and the operator of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, raising further fears that despite new rules, the country's nuclear sector still does not meet safety requirements.
The 450-page report by a 10-member panel of independent experts was released on Monday, and comes as anti-nuclear activists continue a vociferous campaign against the restarting of two nuclear reactors in the country.
The government is currently readying a new energy policy, due next month.
The panel suggested that post-Fukushima safety steps taken at nuclear power plants across the country have not been enough to cope with a complex catastrophe, a combination of human error and natural causes, such as the one that struck the country after an earthquake and tsunami last year.
"We understand that immediate safety measures are being further detailed and will materialise in the future. But we strongly urge the people concerned to make continued efforts to take really effective steps," said the panel, chaired by University of Tokyo engineering professor Yotaro Hatamura.
Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco), the operator of the Fukushima Daiichi plant, and regulators failed to plan for a massive natural disaster, the panel said, blaming them for being lulled by the same "safety myth" blasted by a parliament-appointed team of experts earlier this month.
"Both the government and companies should establish a new philosophy of disaster prevention that requires safety and disaster measures against any massive accident and disaster... regardless of event probability," the report said.
The inquiry did not go as far as accusing regulators and TEPCO of "collusion", as a parliamentary panel had done earlier this month.
Reactors restarting
The decision to restart two reactors operated by the Kansa Electric Power Company has energised Japans' anti-nuclear movement, with more than 100,000 people taking to the streets in Tokyo a week ago.
All 50 of Japan's nuclear reactors were shut down for safety checks after the Fukushima disaster. Critics say that the two restarted reactors do not meet the government's new safety criteria, announced this April.
The panel has called on the government to take immediate action on certain issues, such as ensuring off-site nuclear accident management centres are protected against the kind of massive radiation leaks that rendered the one at Fukushima unusable.
The Fukushima Daiichi plant, located 240km north of Tokyo, was hit on March 11 last year by an earthquake and tsunami that knocked out power and cooling systems.
Three of its six reactors went into meltdown, and about 150,000 people were forced to flee the area as radioactive material leaked into the surroundings.
The panel said that there was no proof that the earthquake was a key factor in the disaster, but added that a certain degree of impact could not be ruled out.
TEPCO's own investigation put the blame for the accident solely on the tsunami.
The panel, however, called on TEPCO to review data that had been presented to it, saying that it believed that it contained errors. It said that further investigations should be carried out.
The report also blamed the country's nuclear regulators for not paying sufficient attention to improvements in nuclear safety standards, as recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
It said that the Japanese Nuclear Industrial and Safety Agency had been promoting nuclear energy without being open about the inherent risks.
It said that a culture of complacency about nuclear safety and poor crisis management had led to the nuclear disaster.
The panel's investigation concludes the last of a series of probes into the worst atomic accident since the Chernobyl disaster in 1986.

What dremel tool do you use?
Hey guys, need to cut a motor shaft today and I realised I have no metal cutting tools at all...
I have a dremel (not proper make) but the chuck broke and I've lost all the accessories...
I would like a decent Dremel (proper make I presume is the best).
I was looking at the Dremel Stylus, seems really good, about 60 pounds so not to bad. Any things I should be aware of?
Cordless and has a decent battery/charging station. Looks comfortable too, unlike those round long ones.
I take it will cut through 4mm or so motor shafts?
Looking to order tomorrow night.
Thanks for any advice!
|Oct 04, 2008, 01:25 PM
Most cordless versions (I have a Stylus) gets hot and are fairly weak. Fine for small jobs and with a cut-off wheel (soaked in CA) would cut a 4mm shaft. Do it three times in a row and you'll need a corded Dremal. The stylus does hold a charge for months if not used. Great for the flight box. Small jobs its fine, any job over five minutes and I use a corded because the Stylus gets to hot to handle.
|Oct 04, 2008, 01:33 PM
Thanks tbird!
I've been thinking, I have a corded drill which is a powerhouse, even though it's not a proper make it works well but only drills.
I think the most I would ever use a Dremel for would be to cut steel shafts, I mean I tend to make do without a Dremel until I get to cutting something tough...
I guess I would also be cutting hardened 3mm screws (just trying to think of all the things I would be cutting).
I mean would it struggle much with the 4mm-5mm steel shafts for motors, because that's really what I'm buying it for mostly, but I don't know I might love it and use it even for little sanding jobs on plastic.
(what do you call tough? ) So it just heats up and looses power?
I suppose the accessories (cutting disks etc) will be the same as for the corded more powerful dremel versions?
I remember my old no-name Dremel tool, the cutting disks used to last hardly any time...
Thanks once again!
No way... It's the same price in dollars... half the price....

Dixon v. Alabama
Dixon v. Alabama, 294 F. 2d 150 (5th Cir. 1961) was a landmark 1961 U.S. federal court decision that spelled the end of the doctrine that colleges and universities could act in loco parentis to discipline or expel their students.[1] It has been called "the leading case on due process for students in public higher education".[2]
The case arose when Alabama State College, a then-segregated black college, expelled six students, including the named appellant, St. John Dixon, for unspecified reasons, but presumably because of their participation in civil rights demonstrations. The college, acting in loco parentis, expelled them without a hearing. The case was appealed to the Fifth Circuit, which held that a public college could not expel students without at least minimal due process.[1]
The case was heard by a panel of John Minor Wisdom, Richard Rives, and Benjamin Franklin Cameron. Cameron dissented from the opinion of the court.
Thurgood Marshall was among the counsel for the appellants.[2][3]

wild raspberry
I have wild raspberries growing along the edge of our property. The berries are sweet and flavourful but very, very small compared to the ones from the grocery store. I was wondering if I dug some up, planted them in my garden and fertilize the heck out of them, would I get bigger berries?
Has anyone done this?
I doubt of they would get bigger, but you might increase production. I always forage wild reds and blacks even though I grow about 20 domestic cultivars.They have a unique taste. I don't grow domestics anywhere near the wild ones, but brought in other wild berries to grow in my naturalized forest-edge garden. Thimbleberry, wine berry etc.
"don't have the option of keeping domestics far away "
I would try anyway! Plants are fairly cheap.
At Indiana Berry they cost about $3.50 each. Oh you're in Canada. Nevermind!
My family still says the wild raspberry jam I made this year (I used a mixture of reds and blacks) was the best jam I ever made. So even though in the city I grow domestics, i still forage the wilds, blackberries too, but they are not as good. The wild raspberries taste nothing like domestics.The wild mulberries I forage are to die for too. Thye are my favorite. Not that good just eating, OK, but in jam or syrup, wow!

ABC Renews 'Modern Family,' 'The Goldbergs' and 'The Middle'
The veteran darling, the Patricia Heaton entry and the freshman sitcom are the first comedies on the network to score a 2014-15 pickup, as ABC hands out commitments to a slew of returning dramas.
It's not all drama at ABC on Thursday night. The network's slew of late-hour renewals for returning hour-longs -- not to mention more than a few new series orders -- also includes comedies Modern Family, The Middle and The Goldbergs.
That makes the pair the first returning ABC half-hours locked for the coming 2014-15 season, with the Modern Family news more of a ceremonial greenlight for the network's flagship hit.
PHOTOS: Broadcast TV's New 2014-15 Shows
A semi-autobiographical comedy from showrunner Adam F. Goldberg and executive producer Seth Gordon, The Goldbergs will be back for a second season thanks to strong support from ABC's Paul Lee and strong DVR gains. The critical darling, which launched to a 3.2 rating in the demo -- the network's top comedy launch in more than a year -- managed to break out from a crowded Tuesday comedy traffic jam, despite a mismatched lead-in from comics-themed drama Agents of SHIELD.
Halfway into its first season, it also earned the ratings distinction of besting Fox's New Girl in live-plus-same-day showings.
The '80s-set comedy from Sony Pictures Television grows more than 50 percent when factoring in delayed viewing, climbing nearly a point to 2.6 million among adults under 50. For his part, Goldberg has been vocal about support from the network -- he was the only freshman comedy showrunner who didn't have to pitch a back-nine pickup -- and has been campaigning to have the show's sophomore run moved to ABC's Wednesday comedy block.
STORY: TV Pilots 2014: The Complete Guide
Modern Family, ever the Emmy darling, is TV's No. 2 scripted comedy, behind The Big Bang Theory. It returns for a sixth season. From 20th Century Fox Television, season five of the comedy from co-creators Chris Lloyd and Steve Levitan is averaging a 3.6 in the key adults 18-to-49 demo -- rising to 5.6 when adding seven days of DVR playback.
Despite USA Network's frequent syndicated repeats, the single-camera comedy is down year-over-year from season four. While the family ensemble ranks as the crowned jewel of ABC's comedy brand, the network has yet to find a successful lead-out.
Meanwhile, the Patricia Heaton family comedy is returning. Down only slightly year-over-year, averaging a 2.1 rating among adults under 50, The Middle continues to anchor the network's Wednesday comedy block at 8 p.m. While it lacks the water-cooler buzz factor of its counterparts, the Warner Bros. Television-produced effort is still perfectly on brand for the Disney-owned network. Helping its cause for a sixth season, The Middle recently began airing in syndication on Hallmark Channel.
New comedies already confirmed at ABC are Jeff Lowell's entry, which is now known as Manhattan Love Story, and Emily Kapnek's Selfie.

I have a Humming bird that's claimed my feeder
It's been a while since I've posted but those that might remember me..Hey there ! Anyway..getting on topic here I have the neatest Hummer that's claimed my feeder..It comes in the evening (morning too) and stays on the feeder till dark..chases the other hummers away..some may get a drink but this one nestles in and ducks and waits for the attacks and then comes back and gets cozy..It's stayed every night for a week..almost 2 hours..Un real this is a first for me..Has anyone had this experience >?...I am anxious to hear from ya all..
I'm so hooked on this little one..I feel like I'm the MOther Hen...LOL... Hope you all have a wonderful Easter too and good to be back on line again..
God Bless
BarbZeee (wintering in Florida and go home to Pa in June)
OH my goodness has it been that long ????? I'm sure tickled pink to be back..and Yes Steve, that Hummer has moved in..He sits on that perch and dares anyone to hit that feeder...I can't believe it he's here now..and will be till it gets dark..wonder if I can claim him on my taxes LOL....
I've never seen this happen. Have any of you ? Gosh I know now I fall under that..If it can happen it happens to me..better change my name to "Murphy"...hahaha
God Bless...and Happy Easter/Passover Making sure I'm politically correct...anything else just let me know :)
Well my resident Hummer is still with me.. He comes at day break for about an hour then goes..and in the evening he's at the feeder at around 7pm...I'm telling ya I've never seen this before..He settles down on the rim of the feeder like the perch and rests..chases those who think they may have a sip..and I've even watched him stretch his wings..just awesome..This is a first for me and it's really neat... Guess he likes my brew and my area..cause it's peaceful..oh the other night I was out there near the feeder and he even buzzed me.. hahaha...What a guy :)
God Bless
Im so glad to hear that your hummer is staying with you and has claimed your place as his, lucky you Im quite envious as I havent had my first as yet here in central indy. According to the hummingbird map they are all over the state just not here.
You could try putting up another feeder just out of site for the other birds. Let him claim that one and everyone else will go to the other one!!! Jealous here, still no hummers, but my feeders are clean and fresh and ready!!! Christy :)
Well my Resident has moved in...but we right now have had some chilly mornings..wonder if he'll stay... ?
I have noticed from other areas that have posted about hummers they have more than one that can feed at a feeder...sure wish they'd get along here...guess it's like people..not too many get along in the neighborhood...LOL.
Christy sorry to hear you haven't seen any yet...
Hummer Steve..I'll make sure I spread the word to those daring critters...You've got good juice :)
If we have more cold mornings our hummers might pack it up
Have a good evening everyone God Bless !

Suggest some Garden Design books
Need a little help.
I have been planting different bulbs, annuals and perennials in a sunny garden area for the past few years. Mostly experimental to see what would do well in this particular area of my home.
I have experimented and learned what I want from the area, how much maintenance and the yearly expense I am willing to put into the area. I am also keeping in mind that this area will be mimicked further out from the house in a few years when we are able to terrace a steep corner of our front yard.
I am just not sure how to layout the plantings.
I have a tendency to plant in rows, symmetrical thus a formal look, I know I do not want strict formal look. I have tried my hand at planting in drifts and over compensate and plant too haphazardly.
I am still in the planning/experimental stage, hoping next year I will have a complete planting list if my experimental plants this year work out.
I have checked out a few gardening books but still on paper (top view and side views) the designs look like a nursery dumped their left overs in front of the house.
I know with books there are always some better then others, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
I'm not sure from your post how technical the info is that you are looking for so I've got a couple of suggestions - one more basic and somewhat technical (although a very decent and understandable beginner's guide to garden design) and a second that is more about plant selection and placement.
The first is Better Homes and Gardens New Complete Guide to Landscaping, which covers all the basics including measuring, site analysis, layout and design principles. It also includes some info on plants and design construction and installation. You should be able to locate this in the publications area of Home Depot or other home improvement store. If you can't locate this, try Ortho's Creative Home Landscaping -- they are pretty much interchangeable :-)
The second book I'd suggest is Tracy diSabato-Aust's The Well-Designed Mixed Garden. This will provide a much broader picture of bed layout and planting combinations and placement. Lots of good photos and a mini-encylopedia of plants. This includes shrubs and trees in addition to perennials, annuals and bulbs. These are absolutely essential elements in the home garden to provide structure, mass, verticality and screening, as well as a year round presence, that annuals or herbaceous plants are just not able to supply.
Thank you gardengal for the suggestions, I can find BHG, Orthos and others such books in my local library branch and have been reading through those. I will request the Tracy DiSabato-Aust's books.
Perhaps I am specifically looking for "design fundamentals/principles/elements" and specifically "how to apply those concepts to gardening/landscaping."
Pam, I have yet to read a book on landscaping that gets to the heart of your question. So many books. So many approaches. So much to understand only to end up confused and unable to find a starting point. May I suggest that you do a Google search for...how to plan a landscape. Time spent reading and studying those sites should be helpful. Lots of succinct information to be found there.
One book that might be helpful if you can find it is THE SELF TAUGHT GARDENER by sydney Eddison. Its a very positive, go ahead and plant it - there is no wrong way to go about this - kind of book. Great plant lists, good pictures to help learn plant id and good gardening practices.
I'm sorry I don't have a direct link, but you might be interested in some sites/articles/books that explain, and give examples of, things like repetition, abundance, balance, unity, and several more. Fine Gardening (magazine) has done features on these principles and there are other short quick versions on the 'net as nandina advised.
If you don't get too overwhelmed by books, I also like Gordon Hayward's books because he links a discussion of the design goals and principles with the accompanying photos, and P. Allen Smith's book on how he designed his home landscape in Little Rock.
Another one you might want to check out at the library is Plant Driven Design by Scott Ogden and Lauren Springer Ogden.
I don't consider this to be a basic or beginner text - the BHG book will provide all that - and it is not just a plant encyclopedia. This is a text written by very accomplished gardeners and designers that takes the "right plant, right place" concept to a very high level. Of all the gardening books in my library - and there are hundreds - this is one I come to most often for inspiration.
I also really like the Plant Driven Design book by the Ogdens, but from your dilemma with what you've been doing so far, I suspect that you aren't at a point to absorb what they are suggesting. It is a great book from the standpoint of "right plant, right place", but you need a feel for the ideas and approaches to getting the design basics of composition, repetition and use of color, texture, etc first. I don't quite understand Nandina's comments about how an internet search will be more comprehensible than a good book on landscape design basics, maybe she can elaborate as to why one is better than the other.
It may take reading several books more than once to really absorb the design principles, and you'll have to really study the photos in combination with the text to grasp the points being made.
I think it really helps to see live examples of good planting design, and take a photo and try analyzing what the design principles used are illustrated. You could also try just copying examples of plantings that you like that are successful in your area/your climate, as a starting point to developing your own style.
Bahia, I noted your question to me re my suggestion to do a search for "how to plan a landscape" in addition to locating books that might be helpful to our OP. It is a very busy time here so will expand on my thoughts later. However, I am curious. Did our OP do the search I suggested and if so, was it helpful?
Gardengal48, I have been reading through "Plant-Driven Design", very informative book and yes I am reading it a second time, lots of good stuff in this book to absorb. So in its essence I do understand the PDD concept of gardening design. However authors insight on gardening/landscaping are excellent regardless of design/style. This is the exactly the kind of book I am requesting suggestions for.
Bahia, your suggestion of reading the authors points and then studying the points made in the specific photos is excellent. In the PDD there is content specific to their photos, not all books are created as thoughtfully. I now understand why my previously mentioned drifts looked odd after reading the authors observations as to why so many gardeners fail at this. In this book they show proper drifts and explained them well.
To answer Nandinas curiosity I have done searches via Internet on "how to plan a landscape", I started searching garden planning, garden design, gardening, landscaping, designing etc. I have searched the forum, then I started searching for books, perhaps it is the natural progression of learning to return to books.
Most of the internet search pertained to how to draw the plan, figuring out the three Fs of each area of your landscape, analyzing site location, expense, time frames, hardscaping, preplanned gardens or the usual suburban foundation plantings. Fine Gardening does rank in alot of those searches. With that said, Internet was a good place to start. I know what I want to accomplish, know how to draw a scale plan, divided up projects into stages of progress (due to expense) and know how much effort and expense I am willing to put into the garden yearly and have been simply experimenting with plants zoned for my area. I go through the ones that thrive (not just survive)and decide as to whether or not we love it and why. The results lead toward the next experimental plants and so on.
It may be best to find (using Google images) a famous garden/landscape I love and hopeful the designer or someone has written about the designers process of creating the garden/landscape. I know the lovely natural gardens the PDD authors do so well, is not quite what I have in mind, but I am enjoying reading their thoughts, experiences and decision process of creating the gardens.
Drtygrl and frankie thank you for the additional suggestions, I will be looking into to those as well.
Again I do appreciate all reading suggestions as I figure out my "style".
You may be looking in the wrong place, aren't you looking for the way to combine plants rather than design a complete landscape? I am not sure if these two books are still available (maybe used) but "Classic Plant Combinations" by David Stuart and "Take Two Plants" by Nicola Ferguson could be more what you are looking for.
Sorry for any confusion inkognito, I am designing a complete landscape for my home. As I design on paper, I try a few things out in the garden area, like my so called drifts or I will plant a five x eight ft section of my design to see it in real life. This has been helpful in seeing the plants true tolerance of the planting area and to see how it looks, smells, and feels.
Thank you and bboy for the suggestions I am adding to my list for reading.
An inspiring plant combo book I found was Designer Plant Combinations 105 Stunning Gardens Using Six Plants or Fewer by Scott Calhoun.

Weepu offered new Hurricanes contract
ESPNscrum Staff
July 7, 2011

Piri Weepu is set to be back in Hurricanes colours next year after being offered a new contract by the Wellington-based franchise.
Weepu told reporters earlier today that although the Hurricanes had shown verbal interest, there had been nothing more concrete but his agent Bruce Sharrock has since confirmed a contract has been offered.
"That's the only thing we've been waiting for, is to have everything put on paper. But it's taking a while and, like I said, it's been pretty frustrating having to wait for so long," he told The Dominion Post. "If they're going to be making us feel like we're not [wanted] and having second thoughts, then obviously we want to look at the other options."
But Sharrock today said that a "timing issue" had confused matters. He said he had spoken to Weepu yesterday morning, with nothing definite to report. "Early in the evening I received confirmation from the New Zealand Rugby Union (NZRU) on the Hurricanes' position and from the Wellington Rugby Union confirming their position," he told NZPA.
"I spoke to Piri at one o'clock this afternoon, only to find he'd spoken to the media. He's a much happier chappy now. We've been talking about it for some time -- discussions have been going on for weeks. I've told him they want him, and that's been the case."
Sharrock said Super Rugby franchises could negotiate contracts up to NZ$180,000 (£93,000) but anything over that went through the NZRU - "they're the gatekeeper in terms of the upper level of players".
"In this new environment, a lot of these contracts are multi-faceted. There's a lot of components that go into them, so pulling them together is not always a swift process."
Wellington rugby chief executive James Te Puni confirmed Weepu was offered a provincial union contract last night. "The Hurricanes confirmed last month with the New Zealand Rugby Union and Piri's representatives that we wished to contract him," he said in a statement today.
"We were informed yesterday afternoon that negotiations have now concluded between Piri's representatives and the NZRU with regards to his Hurricanes contract. As a result, Wellington offered him a provincial union contract last evening and are waiting to hear back from him regarding this."
There would be no further comment on the matter until it had reached its conclusion, he added.
The Hurricanes have had a tumultuous season, with new head coach Mark Hammett under fire for poor results and for opting not to renew the contracts of captain Andrew Hore and midfielder Ma'a Nonu.
Nonu earlier this month signed a two-year deal with the Blues after being told by the Hurricanes that he was surplus to requirements for next season two weeks before the end of the current campaign.
Hore will play his national provincial championship rugby with Taranaki but has yet to secure a Super rugby contract for next season. Hurricanes fly-half Aaron Cruden is expected to confirm his Super Rugby franchise next week, and has been linked with a possible move to the Chiefs.

By Uttara Choudhury
New York: Indian women have made steady progress over the past several years by ascending to senior positions in blue-blooded American companies. PepsiCo Chief Executive Indra Nooyi, Cisco Chief Technology and Strategy Officer Padmasree Warrior, finance high-flyer Sheila Hooda, nanotech innovator Anita Goel and McKinsey consultant-turned-restaurateur Rohini Dey are emblematic of the plodding progress of women.
Those coming of age in the executive suite often were educated at one of two institutions founded in the 1950s and 1960s, the now seven-city IIT and the six-member Indian Institutes of Management. IIM-Ahmedabad educated Sheila Hooda never tires of pointing out that education gave her a crack at working on Wall Street.
Hooda was a managing director in Credit Suisse before moving to the financial services giant, the $410 billion Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association — College Retirement Equities Fund (TIAA-CREF). Less than 10 percent of the senior posts on Wall Street are filled by women and Hooda is part of that small statistic.
She finds it neither an advantage nor a disadvantage to be a woman in a male club. "My father died when I was nine," said Hooda. "I had no one to fall back on — my mother was religious and quiet, and I was the eldest child. So even as a nine-year-old, I was driven, hardworking and focused.
"I knew it was the only way I could do well for myself and my younger brothers and sister," said Hooda, now a senior managing director, mergers & acquisitions and corporate development, at TIAA-CREF.
Hooda worked at American Express in Mumbai before coming to the US in 1988 for an MBA from the University of Chicago's Graduate School of Business. "I did an accelerated MBA in Finance from Chicago and was hired on campus by McKinsey & Co," said Hooda.
"As Indians, we have the tough quant and analytical skills to do data-crunching. But all the A-plus performing in the world goes unnoticed without soft skills. The US puts an emphasis on soft skills, so it is important to be a strong team player and a good presenter," said Hooda.
By the numbers, PepsiCo has done a pretty good job since Indra Nooyi took the helm seven years ago. She has shown prescient business sense in the C-suite by taking Pepsi in a bold direction — from caffeine colas to healthy products such as juices and high-fiber oatmeal. PepsiCo Inc.'s fourth-quarter earnings rose 17 percent to $1.66 billion, or $1.06 a share, up from $1.42 billion a year earlier. The world's second largest food & drinks giant forecast a 7 percent rise in 2013 core per-share earnings.
Indra Nooyi has doubled her executive team to 29 and has proved comfortable enough with her leadership presence to patrol the office barefoot at times and even sing in the halls, perhaps a holdover from her days in an all-girl rock band in Chennai. Indra Nooyi isn't afraid to showcase her cultural identity. Coming out of Yale in 1980 with a master's in public and private management, Indra Nooyi wore a sari to an interview at Boston Consulting Group and was offered the job.
The US media has hailed her as one of "America's best leaders" for balancing the profit motive with striving for a net-zero impact on the environment and taking care of the workforce.
"When a woman like Indra Nooyi rises to the rank of a CEO of a major US corporation, it definitely makes her a great role model," said Deepali Bagati, Senior Director, India at Catalyst Inc, which tracks women in business.
According to Catalyst, there are 21 women running Fortune 500 companies, including IBM and PepsiCo, up from 18 companies in 2012. Near the top there remains slow progress in the number of female directors and highest paid. But women receive about six in 10 college degrees in America, so change is coming willy-nilly.
Indra Nooyi spoke about the sacrifices working mothers made to reach the corner office, during a panel on "Women and Global Leadership" at the Yale Club in New York. She was disarmingly candid about how it jolted her when her teenage daughter sent her an email asking for an hour-long appointment.
Naina Lal Kidwai country head of HSBC India told the same panel that women had to push past the holy trinity of fear: the fear of being a bad mother/wife/daughter.
"I might sound irreverent but I think the biggest glass ceiling we have is ourselves. Self-imposed glass ceilings — feelings which tell us we can't go beyond a certain level. Issues like the ones Indra referred to which are personal — Can I juggle home and career? Can I be wife, mother and work? These are self-imposed glass ceilings," said Kidwai, the first Indian woman to graduate from Harvard Business School.
"You worry that you might drown. Then when you get there and take that leap of faith it isn't so bad after all," said Kidwai.
Indira Nooyi says being an immigrant fuelled her will to succeed; "I am a first generation immigrant. I had no safety net. If I failed, I failed. That kept me going. Any survey will tell you first generation Indian Americans work extraordinarily hard. When I think of my beginning, where I was born and brought up, being CEO of Pepsico is not just incredible — it is incredulous! I can't even connect the dots."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Van Massenhoven Out 4-6 Weeks
by Paul on 12/01/06 at 04:43 PM ET
Comments (0)
Don't tell Don Van Massenhoven that players are the only NHL participants who get injured in the line of duty. Just one week prior to the one-year anniversary of having facial reconstruction surgery, Van Massenhoven caught a rut in the ice at the Staples Center in Los Angeles Nov. 16 and is now on the shelf for four-to-six weeks after having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. "I zagged when I should have zigged," said the veteran referee. "There had previously been a lot of scar tissue in there."

Thanks, they are cool rifles and I wanted one ever since I held one in a gun store about a year ago.
I'm gonna stop you right there, you just said an AR-15 is a high-powered rifle. It is obvious you don't know anything about guns and I shall ignore anything you say from this point on.

The 99 Savage has been my primary woods rifle for the Northeast since 1966. Most of the game I got in VT was with my 99F 358 Win.
The 99's are control round feed!
Here is one of the 99's. The Steyr below it is also a 358!
The .358's are hard to find. They only made them for a very few years. Beautiful gun.
Here's mine in .308. Got it from my dad when he passed away. I've killed 1 elk, 1 bear, and quit a few deer with it.
Oops double post.
I don't know very much about savage lever actions. I passed on a lever action savage chambered in 300 savage. The fellow that owned it reloads for 300 mag and 25/06. I figured he couldn't get components for the 300 savage, so I would have a hard time finding ammo. It was a handsome gun for $350.

Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger

Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
Wednesday, April 14, 2010
By Chuck Finder, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said today he plans to further investigate, analyze and discuss Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's conduct before he renders a decision in "the near future" on whether to punish him. (Looks like Goodell want Ben to twist in the wind for awhile. - mesa)
Goodell didn't tip his hand Wednesday night, moments before joining a banquet to honor Steelers patriarch Dan Rooney, who was receiving the AFL-CIO's Pennsylvania Citizen of the Year award at the Westin Downtown.
However, Goodell noted that after meeting with the Steelers' star quarterback at the NFL's New York offices Tuesday, he hoped Roethlisberger better grasped the gravity of the conduct code across the league.
"We met for a couple of hours. We had a good discussion," Mr. Goodell said of the three-hour meeting one day after the local district attorney announced that he wasn't going to file charges in a Milledgeville, Ga., bar incident investigated as a sexual assault.
"I think he understands how important the personal-conduct policy is to the NFL. And I hope he has a better understanding of how important it is for everybody in the league.
"We'll continue to gather more information. We'll continue to have that analysis done. And we'll consider it, and we'll make a decision in the near future. I don't know if I'd say there's a normal time [period]. We like to be thorough. We like to be sure we fully understand it. We've talked to, obviously, the player. We'll talk to the Players Association. I think anytime you can get more input into the various factors that are going on, the better decision you'll make.
"What you've got to do is, understand that we have a very high standard of conduct for everybody involved with the NFL, whether it's a player, a coach or the Commissioner. And that we all are all held to that high standard. It's something that I believe in firmly. We owe that to our fans. We owe that to our partners. And it's something we'll continue to reinforce."
Goodell declined to discuss what type of penalty he is considering.
In an earlier press conference before the dinner, Rooney declined to publicly discuss the "serious matter" surrounding Roethlisberger.
He offered simply, "Everybody makes mistakes.
"My job is in Ireland," added Rooney, now the U.S. ambassador to that country, indicating that the team in his absence is run by his son, president Art Rooney II, along with coach Mike Tomlin and director of player personnel Kevin Colbert.
"I would just say that it's a serious matter. And it's being handled properly with Art, Mike and Kevin Colbert. I think they're handling it very well. The Commissioner as you know saw Ben [in New York Tuesday]. I don't have any more to say."
Asked about the general behavior his family expects of Steelers, Rooney -- standing with state AFL-CIO officers, his son, Jim, and Steelers backup quarterback Charlie Batch -- said: "I think the players have to be special. And we have a special man here in Charlie, what he's done, what his foundation does as far as children in this community is exemplary. That's the way it should be. Everybody makes mistakes. But I don't even want to talk about that."

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
Suspand or no suspend..just announce it already. I mean what else is there to look into. ?
I mean this is not a court of Law. So why doesn't Ben just tell Goodell that he will partake in a Lie detector test ? I mean this is not the 80's. The detectors they have now are so advanced they are basically 100 % accurate. Make Ben, AND the two women take them. If they refuse, then I think they can be called liars. And if Ben refuses, then Goodell has more proof that something nefarious happened.

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
And Ben should be suspended for one year just because he IS white.
"We're not going to turn our backs on him," Ward said. "We're going to treat him like our brother. We're going to accept him back and be very supportive of him and help him get through this. In this locker room, he's still our quarterback."

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
I don't like this at all. I've been on the side saying Ben should be cut if criminal charges came forth. However, none were. So where do our rights lie that we can't go out to a bar and have a beer? Because when the dust settles on this matter, whether you like it or not, in the eyes of the law that is all that can be proven.
Not to be political but this country is headed toward places it has never been. "Personal Conduct Policy" is a pretty phrase for oppression. And don't think that this is just the NFL and million dollar athletes are held to a higher standard. Companies emulate companies. There could be well be a day you could be fired for being spotted in a place your company's CEO has decided he doesn't want to go.
If Goodell wants to eliminate the CRIMINAL element from the game then fine. My point is nothing criminal has happened here. He can't be allowed to serve as a judge, jury, and executioner. We can't allow that. I hope to God the Union stands up to this guy. I'd be willing to forgo an entire NFL season because of a strike on that issue alone. We need to stand up to this crap.

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
If you watched the press conference with the D.A. He spoke of Bens actions. I got the impression that Mr.Bright believed the alleged victim and would have liked to bring charges on, but the evidence wasn't there.
I have always thought Ben innocent here, however, it appears to me he may not have been as innocent in this as we all would hope. Ben has been making the wrong choices and in this case put himself in a bad situation especially with the Nevada thing hangin over his head.
I will add this ,In my 25 years of law enforcement I have seen a number of "guilty" people escape criminal charge because a lack of evidence.
I am not saying that is the case here but the more he puts himself in these positions, sooner or later he will be charged and prosecuted.

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
Imagine your son getting hit with a false rape accusation.
Have low morals and raping someone are two vastly different issues.

Re: Goodell plans 'further investigation' of Roethlisberger
Yet Mr Bright would have us believe that a rape kit that was methodically proccessed within hours of an alleged sexual assualt procured "male DNA" in the alleged victims genital region but they couldn't get enough markers off it to determine whether it was Mr. Roethlisberger's or not. To paraphrase noted patholigist Cyril Wecht take on this conclusion. Yeah right.
"A man's got to know his limitations."

What Christmas Would be Like if Men and Women Switched Their Roles [VIDEO]
I watched this three times and I'm still chuckling! How many of these situations relate to you? Very funny and very well done video!
I watched this three times and I'm still chuckling! How many of these situations relate to you? Very funny and very well done video!
So I guess you could say this is my kid at heart coming through!
Kenny Chesney's hit 'Spread the Love,' co-written and recorded with the Wailers, benefits Boston Marathon bombing victims. But the new video spreads a message of hope that's for anyone in Boston or around the world who's looking for a little bit of goodness in the world.
Christmas is the time of giving and families, but it also has a darker side.
I don't usually watch movies, not because I don't like them, but because I don't have much free time to do so. However, the holidays are different. During our brief break from sports, school and work, my family and I love to watch Christmas movies
A lot of us video our kids on Christmas morning. One dad had 25 years worth of the same shot: his son and daughter coming down the stairs to see what Santa brought. He edited it into a 3-minute video guaranteed to touch your heart.
Every year at this time my shopping cart and my house are filled with Christmas candy. There are just some holiday treats I can't make, or just refuse to because they are perfect just the way they are. Don't believe me, just try to make any one of my favorites better. I bet you can't.
Remember when we used to type up the year-end update, print it on red or green paper and mail it to every friend and family member we could think of? For a lot of those people, it was the only time they heard from us
As we head into the final week and the kids' anticipation grows, let's step back and talk about the worst Christmas presents we've ever received. We all have senile and/or cheapskate relatives. Read these hilarious stories from Reddit and then share your story below!

Eight Reasons to Play Video Games [VIDEO]

Speaking on behalf of every Batman nerd out there, why don't we have this in America?
Can I get a rock band to make an original song if I create a video game tournament?
Yup get the video games off the streets because that's the real problem for violence in our country.
I have lost weight also doing the Mortal Kombat diet, Grand Theft Auto diet and Halo diet. Actually, I just play too many video games, need to get on Ronda Rousey's level.
After a disappointing debut in 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine', Ryan Reynolds will have another chance to bring the "Merc with the Mouth" to life in his own 'Deadpool' movie in 2016.
CBS has entered the world of comic book television series, ordering a full series about Superman's cousin Supergirl, and without a pilot episode.
Excluding Eminem, white people can't rap. But it's sure is fun to watch them try.
What happens when two of the greatest fantasy series of all time (Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings) face off against each other? Let's just say the results aren't pretty.
Imagine if the Nintendo trio were narrating your everyday lives, yeah this guy can do that whenever he wants.
Every town has dumb laws from the past that are still in effect, but seriously this took eighty years.
All the technology in the world and we're using it to watch fish fight each other in Street Fighter. This is the future we have all been waiting for.

Plates smaller than 11"
I am giving my everyday China to my daughter and I am searching for new white everyday dinnerware. I have read all of the threads and love some of the suggestions.
My old plates are 11" and will only fit in the top drawer of my dish drawer dishwasher (too tall for the shorter bottom drawer). I want to find nice dinnerware with dinner plates smaller than 11", so that I can utilize both the top and bottom drawers.
My Correlle fit in both drawers and they are 10 1/4"
Does anyone know which white dishes have the smaller plates?
I looked for smaller white dinner plates forever (for portion control, not dishwasher reasons) and found that iittala has a number of white dinner plates that are about 10-1/4 inches. We have the white plates from the Sarjaton line and they are simple and beautiful. And great quality. They are a bit pricey but go on sale a few times a year.
Ikea has at least one or two sets of dishes where the dinner plate is 10". Hope that helps.
I will check mine when I get home...they are Ikea 365--so inexpensive and I've had them for 18 mos...no chipping. My mom always had white china "because it goes with everything" and I rebelled when I got married and always had patterns...but now I do prefer white because "it goes with everything." Moms do know best!
Another reason for smaller plates....some of those big ones bump the cabinet door when you shut them. My uppers barely fit my dishes (Crate and Barrel all white dishes). I had glass fronts so I was always worried about the kids somehow slamming them and cracking the glass fronts even though they have soft close hinges.
But I like the portion control reason the best.....
Red...just got home and measured my Ikea plates...10 1/2. The outer raised rim is 1 3/4 and the flat part just over 7". We bought a few sets of 4 that I think we're around $30 but you can buy open stock as well. At 3.99 a plate if one breaks...oh well. Here is a link
