Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon

US Secretary of State John Kerry has said that while he does not know the particulars about allegations that the US bugged European Union offices, countries involved in international affairs undertake different activities to protect their national interests.Kerry made the comments after Catherine Ashton, the EU foreign policy chief, raised the issue with him on Monday during a meeting on the sidelines of a security conference in Brunei.
"All I know is that that it is not unusual for lots of nations, but beyond that I'm not going to comment any further until I have all of the facts and find out precisely what the situation is," Kerry said.
The latest revelations from US intelligence whistleblower, Edward Snowden, published in a German magazine Der Spiegel showed that the National Security Agency lists 38 embassies and missions and describes them as "targets".
According to Der Spiegel, the NSA taps half a billion phone calls, emails and text messages in Germany in a typical month,much more than any other European peer.
The list includes the French, Italian and Greek embassies, as well as a other US allies including Japan.
Cold War-style behaviour
A German government spokesman said if media reports were true, it would be unacceptable Cold War-style behaviour between partners who require trust for a new trans-Atlantic trade area.
Also Chancellor Angela Merkel wanted to discuss the allegations with US President Barack Obama.
French President Francois Hollande also demanded the United States to immediately stop its alleged eavesdropping of the European Union.
The European Commission called in the US ambassador to the EU, William Kennard, for discussions on the issue with Pierre Vimont, the EU's top diplomat.
Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland, reporting from Paris, said that if the allegations were proven to be true, they could risk the ongoing EU trade deal negotiations with the US and the trans-Atlantic alliance.
Der Spiegel quoted from a September 2010 "top secret" NSA document that it said Snowden had taken with him, and the magazine's journalists had seen in part.
The document outlines how the NSA spied on EU internal computer networks in Washington and at the United Nations, not only listening to conversations and phone calls, but also gaining access to documents and emails.
Surveillance methods included planting bugs into encrypted fax machines and other communications equipment.

A quest in the quire for the bones of the squire
A quick question posed to the right quarters
A quizzical quip about the queen's mingled bedfellows
Is she queen consort . . . or consorting quean?
Inquiring minds want to get to the bottom of this box of bones!

7 Pearls of Dubious Pedigree January 27, 2015Posted by nrhatch in Humor, Mindfulness, People, Word Play.
Tags: Humor, Mindfulness, People, Vegetarian, Word Play

Every so often, I toss flotsam, jetsam, and/or detritus overboard in order to keep synapses firing at optimal efficiency.
Here for your consideration are 7 Pearls of Dubious Pedigree:
Judgment gives us the ability to weigh options and choose between competing priorities. We would be lost without it.
Fundraisers unite
with one common goal ~ to take
your money and run
Even if you give ALL opposing ideas, thoughts, and opinions the benefit of the doubt, that doesn't mean they possess any inherent validity.
Some ideas are ignorant, idiotic, and/or just plain evil.
Not convinced? Keep reading . . .
2. Rejecting Social Acceptability.
Next time you're in a restaurant (or, better still, the bowling alley!), reach over and grab a handful of French fries or a slice of pizza from your neighbors.
See what happens.
3. The Zeitgeist Movement and the Venus Project.
If parents can't make equitable distributions between 2-3 offspring, how would society do so for everyone?
"How come Mozart got a GRAND PIANO and I just got a stupid harmonica?"
"Be glad it's not a rock, Charlie Brown."
4. Why are carnivores averse to cannibalism?
Why are cows, pigs, chickens, and turkeys gobbled up while horses, dogs, cats, and rodents are shunned by everyone but Andrew Zimmern?
Why are we willing to donate our organs to science . . . but not to someone's breakfast table?
5. A "Pay It Forward" Pyramid Scheme.
There's a Pay It Forward chain letter circulating through cyber space.
When I saw it for the first time, I refrained from leaving a comment on the post because I did NOT want to be selected to win an "unspecified surprise" . . . not if it meant agreeing to add five more people to the chain by offering to send them an unspecified surprise if they would each agree to add five more people to the chain.
Etc. Etc. Etc. Ad Nauseum. The whole thing is just too forced and phony. A pyramid scheme gone awry.
I'm happy to perform "good deeds" and "random acts of kindness" on an ad hoc basis, but I don't like gifts with strings attached.
And, even if I enjoyed being manipulated via cyber strings, I'm not going to agree to send out 5 surprises in exchange for one surprise I might not even like.
"Be glad it's not a rock, Charlie Brown."
When we are mindful, ample opportunities to be kind appear in our In Box every day . . . without the necessity of entering into contrived cyber contracts.
Laughter each day keeps the doctor away.
He who laughs, lasts. ~ Mary Pettibone Poole
And even if you don't get better, you'll feel better. It's a win-win for everyone.
Except the doctor. But 'eel get over it!
Eek . . . an eel!
Grasping on to my heel!
Whilst wrapped in chain
Oh what a sight
I shudder with fright
But 'eel steal my pain
All's well that ends well
The Eel that Time Remembered (Kate Shrewsday)
When I was a kid, I ate a poisonous mushroom in the backyard and had to have my stomach pumped.
It left a bad taste in my mouth.
That's why I refuse to eat fungus.
If ever I get around to writing a Vegetarian Cookbook, it will NOT include any recipes featuring mushrooms, toadstools, or truffles.
I'll call it, No Fungus, Please!
Aah . . . that's better!

Homemade Cards and FOXY Gifts December 9, 2014Posted by nrhatch in Amazing Animals, Humor, Special Events, Word Play.

I'm a frugal Scot at heart.
The idea of paying Hallmark $4 (or more) for a piece of card stock with a few uninspired impersonal words printed on it seems the opposite of frugal.
So, time permitting, I flex my creativity chakra and make cards from scratch ~ like this 30th Anniversary Booklet that BFF is holding:
The booklet goes on for pages and pages about ways to celebrate our 30th ~ including going on a safari to watch a Zebra chasing a Lion:
This year, one of our nieces turned 18. She wants a pet fox "one day." We decided to get her something FOXY for her birthday.
Here's the card I created to go with the present:
I had no problem finding illustrations for the card.
Who knew that you could find so many FOXY items for sale? From hats to scarves to mittens to socks!
From t-shirts to earrings to stuffed animals to night lights.
That FOXY Night Light gave me a Bright Idea!
I'm sure you're wondering what we got her for her birthday. Here's a hint:
And here's the FOXY reveal:
Yes . . . it's a horse.
But I think it's FOXY!
Aah . . . that's better!

Something about the cadence and rhyme of limericks always teases a smile out of me.
I don't mind a few made up words that stretch language to its limits.
There's something fun about limericks
Especially those that boast gimmericks
They make us smile
And ponder awhile
On the sleight of tongue trickericks
Here's to the liberal literary license of limericks!
After all, where would Dr. Seuss be
If he had limited his vocabulary
To words already written
Would we be as smitten
If it hadn't called it a Truffula tree?
Aah . . . that's better!
Do you enjoy limericks? With sleight of tongue trickericks? Are you a fan of the bawdier the better rhymes . . . featuring folks from Nantucket?

As I read through my grandfather's letters, his occasional turn of phrase made me grin.
For example, instead of calling someone a jerk (or worse), you might point out that they are "trying to be a bit odd" . . .
* 12/4/55 ~ Following his retirement from post office after 30+ years of service, my grandfather shared:
I am having some little fuss over the records but feel it can be cleaned up. Both Tim and Armond are trying to be a bit odd.
I bought a 160# quarter of beef. Have it hanging down stairs. I hope we continue to eat anyway.
As a pragmatist, my grandfather obviously felt that if you didn't starve, you were doing alright. Here's another example along the same lines:
* 1/1/57 ~ "I read The Bible As History and a notorious new book with a local background across the river from White River ~ Peyton Place. The author's husband lost his teaching job in a N.H. High School over the book. He got another job and did not starve."
And he dished up some good dope:
* 9/14/57 ~ "About the weekend of 25-26: I want to give you some dope on that.
* 11/26/61 ~ "So life goes on and it is foolish to brood over the mistakes we made."
* 9/20/62 ~ "Don't work too hard. I don't if I can dodge it."
He was happy to be needed . . . or not:
* 7/22/66 ~ "Margaret has gone slumming. An Art Exhibit in Hanover and some shopping. I did not seem necessary ~ happily."
Aah . . . that's better!

"Tonight's Halloween. Let's have fun.
Mayhem and mischief shall be done!"
Hilda swirled and twirled round the room.
Fireplace sparks pierced the gloom.
"Where's my broomstick? It's time to fly!"
Pumpkin sat mute. With no reply.
Hilda reached underneath the bed,
but only found a shrunken head.
She opened drawers and closet doors,
accompanied by creaking floors.
Dust rose and fell as Hilda paced.
Pumpkin glared. Evil grin in place.
Cauldron bubbled with purple brew.
"Broomstick. Broomstick. Where are you?"
The clock chimed twelve and Hilda froze,
as one small tear ran down her nose.

My maternal grandfather loved puns, crosswords, and word play . . . like Toyota = Toy Auto.
He also loved Stollen Bread and received a loaf from my mother every Christmas for as long as he lived.
When I read Nancy Curteman's post on Global Mysteries about The Isle of Guernsey, it struck me that the ingredients for a Guernsey Gache sounded like those for Stollen Bread.
I wondered whether the similarities stemmed from German occupation of Guernsey during World War II.
Could it be The Case of the Stolen Stollen?
There's a mystery for Miss Marple!
Aah . . . that's better!
ACK! I said the C-word and it's not even half-past Halloween.

Violet's threat hung in the air. She pointed a gun at me, placing more pressure on the trigger than I deemed prudent.
I scanned Hal's living room, noting the crimson stain pooling around Hal's body. Violet meant business. Some other scandal hound would get the scoop on Hal's death, and mine, unless I helped her.
I gave Violet center stage. Like a true diva, she dove in.
"Hal called this morning. He said he had some dirt on me and invited me over. When I arrived, he suggested we discuss the situation over a glass of wine . . . in the Jacuzzi. I refused. He got ugly. When I started to leave, he called you. After hanging up, he said, Sugar, when Ketchem publishes the photos I dug up on you, your career will be on permanent standstill. I knew I had no choice."
Violet paused. I glanced at Hal.
Seeing the trajectory of my eyes, she gasped. "No! No! I know what you're thinking, Sammy. I didn't KILL him. I agreed to meet him in the Jacuzzi and went to get a towel. I heard a gunshot, raced back here, and found him like, like . . . that. I heard a noise behind me, grabbed the gun, and turned around. There was no one there. I panicked and started tearing the place apart to find the photos. Before I found them, I heard the doorbell and you walked in."
I exhaled.
If Violet didn't kill Hal, she didn't need to kill me.
Aah . . . that's better!
General tickets will go on sale Nov. 1 and can be purchased later this year through the Manatee Performing Arts Center box office and the Manatee Library Foundation website.

There are key benefits to both journal bearing and ball bearing center sections. The decision really comes down to personal preference and budget. Ball bearing turbos are designed to offer increased support to the turbine shaft in such applications where sustained load on the center section would decrease the longevity of a journal bearing center section. Ball bearing center sections requires less oil to provide adequate lubrication, this reduces oil temps and minimizes the chance for seals leaking and oil starvation after your engine has been shut down. Journal bearings work well in most situations, they are more affordable than their ball bearing counterparts and offer greater longevity in applications where maximum load under sustained duration is not needed. OEM turbos are typically journal bearing because they are reliable under more moderate boost levels, cost effective and are typically, more serviceable. Ball bearing turbos are more reliable in sustained higher boost applications and offer better transient boost response.

Congress: House Republicans succeeded in maintaining their solid majority after two years of opposing President Obama's big-government initiatives. The people kept them in power Tuesday to do more of the same.
The media establishment was making a lot on Wednesday of House Speaker John Boehner's supposed willingness "to accept new tax revenue to reduce the nation's budget deficit," in the words of Bloomberg News.
In fact, Boehner made it clear the new revenue shouldn't "come from government taking a larger share of what the American people earn through higher tax rates" but rather "as the byproduct of a growing economy, energized by a simpler, cleaner, fairer tax code, with fewer loopholes, and lower rates for all."
Boehner is thinking very big, envisioning President Obama joining hands with Republicans to reform the tax code and fix entitlement programs like Medicare and Medicaid, which are on track to bankruptcy — and, hopefully, to reverse our nation's long-term fiscal imbalance. It would be a historic legacy for a president of either party.
Another Ohio congressman, Jim Jordan, the chairman of the conservative Republican Study Committee, told Investor's Business Daily what Boehner is proposing is "just good, smart economic policy. It's John Kennedy. It's Ronald Reagan-Tip O'Neill. It's not raising the tax burden on families and business owners."
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., gave a fairly clear idea of what the House GOP's tack would be in dealing with Obama.
The best description might be encouraging the president to rise to the occasion presented to him by his slim re-election.
"Small business owners want results, in the name of substantive tax reform and a smarter regulatory environment," Cantor said in a statement Wednesday. "Families want results, in the name of a less intrusive government, better schools and more take-home pay."
At the same time, "Higher tax rates won't create jobs and they won't solve our spending crisis," Cantor said. "Ignoring the problems of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid won't help people get better health care or prepare for a secure retirement."
Calling on all in power in Washington to "rise above the dysfunction," Cantor said that "economic growth, entitlement reform and solving our spending crisis are our top priorities, and I look forward to working with President Obama to meet these challenges."
But what if Obama refuses to work with House Republicans on these and other issues?
What if he continues his hard-left stance, looking to demonize the GOP majority in the House in hopes of gaining back Democratic control in 2014, then running wild with full political control of Washington for the final two years of the Obama presidency?

Liberty was very easy to contact. The whole process was very smooth. The flat is absolutely amazing, large, light, beautifully decorated. The view is unbeatable. There is a bus stop right outside or an easy stroll down into the centre of Santa Teresa. I would happily stay here again and again.
Our stay at Liberty's apartment in Santa Teresa was a pleasure. From booking to checking out it was seamless and effortless. Great response time and great tips on getting better acclimated to the surrounding area. She also offered us a ride to and from the airport.
The apartment had amazing views and a hammock that made pre dinner naps a regular routine in my schedule. It was clean and tastefully decorated. We cooked and spent many night out in the veranda. I wish I was there now. The center of Santa Teresa is a 30 min walk or 8-10 min taxi ride. We felt very safe and enjoyed every minute of Liberty' apartment.
Thank you
Michael and Paul

Spacing washers 6 are positioned around the pin 3 between the knife 2 and a nut 7 threaded on said pin. Shanks 8 and 9 taken on the extend from the hook 1 and knife 2 respectively, and are threaded into hollow handles 10 and 11, respectively.
Tubes 12 and 13 are positioned within the hollow handles 10 and 11 respectively, and are formed of a suitable non-metallic material which will not be attacked by the disinfecting substance. Suitable plugs 14 and 15 are threaded into the bottom of the handles 10 and 11 respectively, to enable said handles to be filled with the disinfecting substance. Ducts 16 and 17 are formed in'the shanks 8 and 9, respectively, and extend from the 4 tubes 12 and 13 to the openings 4 and 5, respectively, in the hook 1 and knife 2, respectively.
Thus, it will be seen that when the shears are hung downwardly the disinfecting substance will flow from the ducts 16 and 17 and openings 4 and 5 to spread over the hook 1 and a knife 2, the fit between the pin and the shear-s being sufficiently loose to allow of sufficient flow of the comparatively thin disinfectant to maintain the shears covered, whereby the spread of disease is prevented.
In the modified form shown in Figure 3, the handle 10 or 11 is provided with a flexible rubber bulb 20 secured to the end thereof and communicating with the hollow bore of may thehandle, the object beingth atif it is de sired to force liquid into the shears, a slight pressure on this bulb will accomplish the purpose Without holding" the'shears downwardly as previously described.
In the modiiied form shown in Figure 4, a means is provided whereby the liquid may more effectively fiow over the cutting surfaces of the hook 1 and knife 2. This is accomplished by a notch 21 cut into the knife and hook in'their adjoining surfaces and around the pin 3, and a recess 22 in the hook 1, joining with the duct 16, which recess extends around the pin 3. The notch 21 and the recess 22 are cut into the material in such close proximity that the liquid disinfectant run from one into the other and from the notch out over said cutting surfaces thus effectively distributing the disinfectant over the latter. The book 2 is countersunk as at 23 and a spring 24 is positioned, therein which bears against the nut 7, thus pressing the knife against the hook at all times.
Referring back to Figs. 1 and 2, the pin 3 acts as a loose plug, but it does not oompletely shut off the flow ofliquid through the ducts 16 and 17. The idea'here' is to inject the liquid around the immediate surfaces by forcing the liquid into the shears. A slight pressure of the bulb will accomplish the purpose, since these are all loose fitting joints. These pins soon become worn in the rough usage of pruning ofi dead trees. It is best to make them tight in the beginning, because in the hard usage, they become loose soon enough and thereby permit the liquid to flow out freely.
Having described my invention, I l. Pruning shears comprising a hook and a knife, a pin extending through said hook and knife to pivot them together, shanks extending from said hook and said knife, hollow handles secured to said shanks, said shanks having ducts formed therein, extending from said hollow handles to said pivot in. p 2. Pruning shears comprising a hook and a knife, a pin extending through said hook and knife to pivot them together, shanks extending from said hook and said knife, hollow handles secured to said shanks, said shanks having ducts formed therein, extending from said hollow handles to said pivot-' ing pin, tubes positioned in said hollow handles, and plugs threaded into'the bottom of said hollow handles. y v
claim 3. Pruning shears comprising a pair of members pivoted together by means of a pin one of said members comprising a knife, a shank and a hollow handle containing a tube, said shank being provided with an internal duct extending from said tube to said pin, each of said pivoted members being provided with an annular recess adjacent said pin. and connected with said duct, and means connecting said recesses with the surface of said knife.
V 4. A clipping tool comprising a pair of iembers pivoted together by means of a pin, one of said members being provided with a cutting element and a hollow handle, means for retaining a liquid, in. said hollow handle, one of said members being provided with an annular recess adjacent said pin, means for conducting liquid from said hollow handle to said recess, and means for conductingsaid liquid from said recess to said cutting element. v v

Michael Pastore | July 30, 2003 | Comments
By the end of 2004, one out of every 10 jobs with U.S.-based IT vendors and IT service providers will move to emerging markets, as will one out of every 20 IT jobs within user enterprises.
By the end of 2004, one out of every 10 jobs with U.S.-based IT vendors and IT service providers will move to emerging markets, according to Gartner Inc., as will one out of every 20 IT jobs within user enterprises.
While the economic benefits of offshore outsourcing are well-known, Gartner is warning CIOs and other executives about the impact offshore outsourcing may have on business strategies. Gartner cites three areas of concern: loss of future talent, loss of intellectual assets, and loss of organizational performance.
"To many CIOs and business executives, the decision to outsource activities offshore is fiscally sound – the cost, quality, value, and process advantages are well-proven," said Diane Morello, vice president and research director at Gartner. "At a time when IS organizations are struggling with poor credibility and IT is being scrutinized, offshore outsourcing is becoming a tool for improving service delivery and a source of highly qualified talent in greater numbers."
Many workers in the high-tech sector might question whether it is the number of highly qualified workers looking for jobs offshore or the price at which they are willing to work. In the United States, the computer industry lost 3,473 jobs in June of 2003, while telecommunications lost 5,528, reports Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a Chicago-based outplacement firm that tracks job cuts and hiring trends. The two sectors combined lost 54,278 jobs between January and May 2003, which is 67 percent fewer cuts than the 165,391 logged in the same five-month period last year.
According to a survey by the Computing Research Association of 182 university departments that issue Ph.D. degrees in computer science or computer engineering in the United States and Canada, a total of 849 Ph.D. degrees were awarded in 2002, the lowest number since 1989. Master's degrees were awarded to 7,918 students, a decrease of 4 percent from the previous year. Bachelor's degrees numbered 20,677, an increase of 21 percent.
For companies that do choose offshore outsourcing, Gartner recommends they be open and honest with employees who are affected, while at the same time maintaining organizational performance.
"CIOs need to communicate clearly, honestly and respectfully about the transition plan, and about the options available to affected employees," Morello said. "The way in which enterprises deal with employees during the offshore transition will be lasting testament to the perception of leadership and the reputation of the company as an employer."

Recommendations » India
Redington India Q4FY14 results update
Q4FY14 results were in-line with our expectations. Revenues were above our expectations on the strong growth seen in the India business (grew 16.5% YoY). Overseas revenues were mainly boosted by the currency which grew by 21.4%. EBIDTA margins were marginally lower during the quarter. Apple business has shown strong performance in Q4 as well as in FY14 (grew by 220% + YoY). Redington has strategically changed its overall product portfolio and has included tablets and ipads and also has included vendors like Lenovo and Samsung which has assisted. Company expects better momentum in FY15 and since it enjoys leadership position in the products it deals, we expect it to grow its business in infant markets like Africa and Turkey. Our initial target of Rs.107 has been achieved and now we are introducing FY16E numbers. At CMP, the stock is trading at a P/E of 9.7x/8.1x its FY15E / FY16E expected earnings and we recommend investors to buy the stock for a target price of Rs.130.
Quarter highlights
- Revenues for the quarter grew 14%/19% QoQ/ YoY on the back of good traction in the India business.
- During the quarter, West Africa has made good progress with company launching new Smartphones like Motorolla. On the other hand, company has lost some market share in East Africa.
- EBIDTA margins were down by 33 bps on the back of lower margins in some of the overseas non IT products.
- PAT after minority interest grew by 7.8% YoY to Rs 113 crore. This includes Rs. 9 crore loss from the NBFC sale during the quarter.
- Company plans to add more Smartphone clients to the overall portfolio.
India Operations – Regained growth Momentum

YourTango was magical this week (and it's not just because of Harry Potter's release!) From our community advice to groom-planned weddings, we had a few tricks up our sleeves as well. So in case the line at the cinema was a little too long, here's this week's best from YourTango.

That's right. Famed Ruske Tatiana Kozhevnikova—able to vaginally lift 31 pounds with a single, er... squeeze—is now offering "organizers of trainings" for both professional and amateur women everywhere eager to better manage their intimate muscles.
3 Things We Secretly Love About Weddings
We're entering another weekend at the heights of wedding season. We have to admit as much as there may be gripes about the logistics of getting to and from a wedding location and budgeting for what to wear and what to give as a gift there are three things we absolutely adore about weddings.
Richard Gasquet: Kissed By Cocaine
Tennis player Richard Gasquet told the International Tennis Federation that he tested positive for cocaine because of a make-out session. Amazingly enough, the the tribunal panel bought it and gave him the green light to resume playing.
Love Bytes: Dating Through Technology

I'm A Politician, Let Me Fix You Up
Given the plethora of niche dating sites out there, finding one expressly for fans of politician Ron Paul, should not have come as a surprise. Unlike Obamadatingsite.com, which features nary an ode to our President beyond his namesake, RonPaulSingles.com caters to fans of the Texan Congressman. At the time of this post, there were currently 113 members registered on the site—84 men and 29 women—all presumably poised to find love among fellow Federal government haters.
Is It Possible To Share Too Much?
It is possible to share too much. That's according to an article on The Wall Street Journal's website. And if you didn't believe the article, reading the comments by wsj.com readers is great proof. The article details a fight over a sponge between a Arizona couple. There was a sponge left in a sink which led to an argument and accusations about bad housekeeping, among other things. In this scenario, the woman called her boyfriend's bud to come over and calm him down.
Wedded Weight Gain
Commitment is linked to weight gain finds a new study published in the July issue of the journal Obesity. Just what is it exactly that makes it so easy to pack on pounds once commitment enters the picture?
Are More Women Having Bisexual Tendencies?
Watching 'The Real World: Cancun' makes me feel old for multiple reasons. 1. I am five years too old to actually be cast on the show. 2. It's so insanely vapid that I cannot actually watch a full episode, which says a lot considering I can stomach an entire marathon of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians." 3. Every single girl in the cast seems to be bisexual. Why does point three make me feel old? Well, I think I just missed the boat on the bisexuality trend. Hear me out. I believe sexuality is a spectrum and where we fall on that spectrum when we're born and how our sexuality evolves as a result of societal influence depends on the person. I also don't think it's relevant whether a person is gay, straight or bi, whether they were born that way or 'chose' that 'lifestyle,' as I don't think what goes on in a person's bedroom or romantic life is anyone's business. In the last five years or so, female bisexuality has become quite 'cool.'
5 Signs You're Ready To Call It Quits
If you're having a hard time figuring out when a relationship is over and a break-up should happen, check out the list below. Cringing when they call, cleaning is more important than sex and self-sabotaging all make the list.
