Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Curling events slide into Manitoba
PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE--Two major curling bonspiels opened this morning in Manitoba with the men's 2012 Canad Inns Prairie Classic at the Portage Curling Club at Portage la Prairie and the women's 2012 Manitoba Lotteries Curling Classic at Winnipeg's Fort Rouge Curling Club.
Winning men's teams in the morning draw at the Canad Inns Prairie Classic included Daley Peters, Brad Gushue, Glenn Howard, Deijia Zou, Niklas Edin, William Lyburn, Dennis Bohn and Heath McCormick.
At the women's Manitoba Lotteries Curling Classic, the winning teams in the morning draw included Jennifer Jones, Amber Holland, Cheryl Bernard, Chelsea Carey, Sherry Middaugh and Shannon Kleibrink.
"We're very happy with the field we got this year. This is the best we've had in 10 years," said Trevor Found, the president of the Portage Curling Club. "There's a $58,000 purse with $18,000 for first place so it's one of the top events."
Found said Portage ice technician Garnet Cairns is being assisted by Greg Ewasko, who is the ice technician for the provincial championships, a combination that is certain to create a world-class surface for the competitors.
There are men's draws today at 1:30 p.m., 5 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Women's draws today are at noon, 3 p.m., 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Video: Man charges Seattle police with knife, gets shot
The man survived the shooting and pleaded guilty to assault
By PoliceOne Staff
SEATTLE — KOMO News obtained dash cam video of a June confrontation between Seattle police and a knife-wielding man with a history of mental illness.
According to court records, a man called 911 several times to report a person outside his home with a large kitchen knife – who police later discovered was the same person, reporting himself.
Video shows the man, who has not been identified due to his mental illness, running toward police with a knife. Once he's off camera, an officer fires one shot at the man.
According to the report, the man pleaded guilty this week to assault.

I am very happy with this item that I purchased. I always doubt before I buy stuff online because its a pain to have to ship it back if it doesn't fit..yet I decided ti take he risk and only benefitted from it! I like these pants a tremendous amount! SO comfy!
I am overly happy with these amazing yoga pants. I wear them everyday when I do exercise, and sometimes even just on regular days because the material is extraordinary comfortable which makes them enjoyable to wear daily.
The pants are very comfortable. They have a wonderful stretch to them so they move very easily. The skirt doesn't ride up on the pant which is really great! They are a more polished look that simple yoga pants, but just as comfortable!
I did not receive them!!!!! I'm still waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Motorists must remember to adjust driving behaviors during winter weather. When the first snowstorms hit the valley, a higher number of crashes are observed, because people just aren't used to adjusting their driving behaviors for winter conditions. Snow, sleet and ice on the road require drivers to be more diligent, attentive, and cautious. Winter weather conditions can turn small mistakes into serious problems. Please keep the following winter safety driving measures in mind this winter.

Describe your seed starting set-up
I thought it would be interesting to find out how much space and rooms are devoted to seeds starting and if anyone has invested in any special equipment.
I am lucky to have a large E/SE facing walkout FR with two oversized sliding doors. I have space to set up a plank of plywood on a couple of saw horses and there are hooks in the ceiling to suspend shop lights in which I have full psectrum/grow lights. Once the plants are large enough and the weather is predictable, I can just slide open the door and put plants on a picnic table on the patio or on the patio floor once they are transplanted to larger containers. I suspend shade cloth to filter out too much sun and gradually acclimate each plant by moving it more and more foraward unti ready to leave the patio for the final position. (I do all container gardening at the moment).
I already have indoor house plants taking up space in my best windows and 4 cats to knock stuff over in the other rooms, so I only use this area.
My DH built a greenhouse set up (reads: shelves and light fixtures) for me out of scrap wood that he had and placed it in a section of the basement for me. So once my seeds germinate I can place them on the shelves. I have a timer for the lights and for a fan for air circulation. I also have one of those covered three-tier greenhouses that that I use for germinating the seeds. This has worked well for me, even my cat won't mess with the setup, plus it was inexpensive for me as well.
I've given up on starting seeds indoors except for a very few that I germinate on top of the refrigerator and move outdoors as soon as I see green. With limited window space and no room to set up grow lights it was a losing battle trying to keep the seedlings from becoming waaaaayy too tall and lanky and suffering from damping off.
The Winter Sowing forum got me hooked last year and I was amazed at how well it works! Now I start almost everything outside over the winter or very early spring and don't have any problem with them getting too tall or suffering from damping off. The plants don't get as big as quickly as commercially grown ones but are establishing good root systems. They catch up very fast once set in the garden. And it gives me some gardening activity during a time when I used to just have catalogs to keep me sane! LOL
Here is a link that might be useful: Winter Sowing Forum at Garden Web
Sujiwan, I have 4 cats too,and 1 permanent dog and 1 guest dog so everything is in the cellar where I can also make a mess with dirt and water.
Sandy, sowing outdoors in coldframes is great if there's no room indoors or cold strat needed - I do start some things in cold frames. But I so need the indoor germination- GREEN- to get me through winter!! I had my very first light table in a 5 room condo :) They can be squeezed into the corner of a hallway. And before that I hung fluorescents under kitchen cabinets and considered hanging one under the piano bench. Nixed that on account of the 4-footed.
Anyway - I have 3 light tables, total of 12 shelves built from shop shelving and shop lights. They hold a total of 48 10x20 flats or a bazillion transplants. I don't use them all anymore, and try to cut back each year. Running out of room in the yard, but love having the seedlings indoors.
There's a thread with photos on this topic on the Growing from Seed Forum. Linked below:
Here is a link that might be useful: Growing From Seed Forum
Oh my gosh, Cynthia! Your white cat in those seed starting thread photos looks just like my Rama! Sad to say, I lost him in 1995. He was a flame point Manx.
I like those utilitarian seed starting racks. I may talk to my husband about making some of those for me, though it would be best if they can be deconstructed when not in use.
I have one of the old 4-shelf units (24x48" each shelf) from Parks, with lights over the bottom 3 shelves. It's in an independently heated garage-turned-family room, and most of the time I don't bother to turn on the electric baseboard heating. My husband and I re-fitted the shelves last year with the high-output, long-lasting fluorescent fixtures and lights everyone was raving about, tho' we didn't go to the trouble of overdriving them.
What I need now is a cold frame, so I can move the young-uns out safely when they get to a certain size and make room for the new crop of seedlings being transplanted. (Most of what I grow is at least semi-hardy here in zone 7a, but I always end up with plants started in the fall from offsets, that are well rooted and settled in by February.)
I have a homemade wooden stand with three or four shelves (depending on how I configure them) and two two-bulb shoplight fixtures per shelf. At least part of this unit is in use pretty much year round (seedlings and overwintered stuff in the cold months; cuttings in the summer).
Since I always plant too much, this is augmented in April by a 4x8 plywoood sheet on sawhorses, on which I jury-rig as many lights as are needed to hold the overflow until they're ready to go outside for hardening off.
I winter-sow too, but am not as enthusastic about it as some folks are. Sure, it's easy and takes relatively little time before spring. But, like Cythia, I take pleasure from tending to my seedlings in the winter. And a lot of plants will bloom the first year if started early indoors, but won't if wintersown. Plus transplanting them is easier: winter-sowing gives you zillions of itty-bitty seedlings to tend to at the busiest time of the gardening year.
"winter-sowing gives you zillions of itty-bitty seedlings to tend to at the busiest time of the gardening year."
- Well, yes, IF you actually use containers tha they need to be transplanted out of! i just "direct-plant" my winer-sown seeds.
- Does the container provide shelter? How about, cut the bottom off of yogurt contianers (or similar) and plant the resulting tapered tube in the ground? (Narrow end up, so in the spring, when you remove it, it doesn't disturb the seedling growing up in the center.) For a veggie, you might want to leave the tube as a cutworm barrier.
- Just a thought, from one "green with envy" while thinking of others who have seed-starting set up inside! Sure wish i did, but there really isn't room for such, nor proper lighting.
(Do we REALLY need a formal dining room? Can't i just line it with waterproof, easy-clean bath tiles, hang industrial grow-lights from ceiling chains, and stuff the room with potting benches and plant racks? You know, just until i can get a real greenhouse?)
- Sigh. Happy gardening,
The previous owner of our house put in two two-bulb ceiling shop lights over counters in the basement (where the cats don't go) -- I think for his model airplane, or model something, hobby. I put the seedling pots on random trays on top of ironing boards on each counter. The seeds get started in pots in the kitchen in sweater boxes (if they don't need heat), or in a cheesy little mini-greenhouse with a heating element at the bottom that I got from Park Seed six years ago (if they do).
I also have a cold frame consisting of cinder block walls, a big piece of plexiglass for the top, a smaller piece of plexiglass for the front, and some bricks to keep the front in place (mostly).
Plus, usually, by early to mid April, everybody is outside on small metal wire utility shelves, backed up to the south side of the house. Shoplights work, but the outdoor sun works better.
I winter sowed last year then fried all my seedlings when the day was hotter than expected.
This year, I packed the trays with potting soil in anticipation of seeding this month. I learned a lesson, though: no more peat pellets! They dry out SO fast.
I don't have a place inside with enough light or heat, so I'm going to put them on makeshift benches outside. Once i see green, it'll be repotted, labeled and moved. I had decent (not great) success last year, but figure one learns with experience. Plus, I figure the cost of any successes to be less this year, because I'm not investing in the trays or pots or anything.
Anyone tried those do-dads that let you roll and form your own pots out of newspaper? And don't they disintegrate?
Keep me in mind for red seeds.....
Anyone tried those do-dads that let you roll and form your own pots out of newspaper?
You gotta check out this recent thread over on the Winter Sowing forum. No "do-dad" required! It looked so easy that I when ahead and made a couple pots last night. I figure that they will be great for starting some sunflower seeds. I too am a little curious about how long they hold up.
- Brent
Here is a link that might be useful: Newspaper Pots 'Tutorial' (12 pics)
- GREAT tutorial!
- Paper pot hint: Set them in a tray, as tight as possible. THEN fill with soil. (It doesn't matter if some soil goes between, instead of in, the pottlettes.) This way, they all support eachother, and you can more easily carry the tray outside for sun and inside to shelter from frosty nights.
- A mesh tray that sits in a larger tray is ideal (for better water controle), but a solid tray is OK; put an empty tin can, top and bottom cut out, in the middle, so any excess water has a place to drain to.
- i keep a turkey baster among my garden tools for slurping up excess water. (Works with houseplants too.)
- The "cut top edge of pot into tabs to fold down inside" is a new trick to me - i always just popped a paper clip on the lip of each potlette at the seam, but this fold-in looks likely to provide better bracing.
- When planting, you don't have to remove the paper pot, just tear it enough for the young roots to get through. Once planted, the rest of the pot will disintegrate soon enough.
- Happy gardening,

I have had no problems with the car and it has over 40,000 mi on it now. I am happy to have had this as my first car! I hope to keep it until it finally dies one day.

2007 Volkswagen GTI Hatchback 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
I bought this car new.
It now has 110,000 miles on it (more highway than city) and it's been 100% reliant.
All I've ever done is maintenance, oil changes, tires around 60K, brakes around 70K, a taillight.
I had the a/c compressor just go out (around 95,000) and I just got the timing chain redone for piece of mind.

2007 Volkswagen GTI Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
I have been pleasantly surprised by this car. bought it new so I could get a warrranty as I was not sure of VW quality. I now have close to 70k on it, and haven't had any problems. It's a blast to drive and gets good mileage (25 - 30+, depending on the type of driving I do). The manual transmission is fun to shift; I have tried several others since having this car, and they all seem cheap and clunky to me now. Definitely one of my all-time favorite cars.

2007 Volkswagen GTI Hatchback 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6AM)
Bought my 2007 4-door GTI as a CPO in 2009 with 35k miles. Have put about 20k miles on it in approx 2 years. Haven't had any issues with the car since owning it other than expected maintenance, also not with higher-than-normal tire-wear (even with an occasionally heavy right foot...).
Car has leather, sat-nav, sunroof, DSG, sport steering wheel with controls, factory 18" wheels. Even now, the car's very nimble, snug seats and the direct steering feedback make it exceptionally great fun to drive! The folding rear seats make it roomier than expected (hello Ikea). The DSG shifts super-fast when accelerating, but displays lag during kick-down.Bad: old nav is slow, road noise, occasional rattle.

Bought the car used in 2010. Selling it as soon as possible. I can't afford to keep sending it to the mechanic/fixing small things on the car. I've had two tail lights burn out, both the xenon headlights go out ($80 a piece), AC compressor, electrical problems, and now it seems the coil packs need to be replaced. It's a great car, and fun to drive, but I've had to drop it off almost every other month to get work done on it. Which wouldn't be as big a deal if the parts cost less than an arm+leg.

My 07 has less than 30,000 miles on it. Last week the transmission needed to be completely replaced luckily under warranty. Got it back and check engine light came on. Dealer said intake rotor motor needed replacing. Not under warranty and over 500 in parts and labor. The company sent an extended warranty on the camshaft because it has been found to wear out prematurely. I bought a new car in an effort to not get nickel and dimed on repairs. I guess I didn't get nickel and dimed they have all been major top dollar repairs. I will never even consider another VW or Audi or anything related.

first owner, do service every 5K in dealer or respected shop... 30100miles, (right after service)fuel pressure sensor died on the road 200 miles away from home on a holiday....
42000miles, power steering wheel and traction control lights on for 80% of driving time, 4 times to the dealer, 2 for diagnostics 2 for fixing, got fixed, first time for 15 mins before lights came on again, second time, better, 3 days...
50100miles, with those problems persisted, new problems came out, when those lights on, the power steering wheel would lose electricity for all buttons and pedals include signal lights, wipers...
in the dealer for 8 business days and counting... bad luck, maybe, but lesson learned

My Gti was the perfect car for me. I am a college student and I am more than likely always in a rush. The Gti has a great responsive clutch and the ability to grip the road better than most bmw's along side with the performance the maintenance was extremely high than most its competitives but I rarely had to take it to the shop. I drove the car from California to Georgia with no problems or issues the ride was comfortable and enjoyableI've had it for two years and the quality was good compared to others of that same year. I had little problems with the electronics like the iPod connector and the windows.

Have had several Hondas, this is much more car for less money. Having read a few of these other reviews I guess that experiences vary, but I've had exactly 0 problems with this car after 3 1/2 years of "spirited" driving. Nothing. Nada. Oil changes, regular maintenance, and that's it. I will say that the handling is a bit disappointing, feeling a bit top heavy and with a bunch of understeer. The DSG is less amusing than I thought and it's back to a stick next time around. But, overall, great motor, good all around driver. Took it from upstate NY to Outer Banks and comfortable all the way. A set of Blizzaks and snow is no issue. Finally I agree with Consumer Reports.

Great design and drivability are the hallmarks of this sporty hatch. Mechanically it is still going strong as it approaches the 40K mark. The A/C failed, however, though it was replaced under warranty (took 2 tries!) Aluminum pedals are great, as is the premium stereo (after re-flash). Visibility out the back slightly poor. Biggest problem: 18" Huffs EAT TIRES! I have replaced numerous tires due to Pennsy potholes and had rims straightened once. Ouch! Buy a 17" wheel for the sake of the extra sidewall. Noisy rough ride just reminds you why you like to hang onto that fat padded wheel so tightly at speed. Great lines! I have thought about trading it when the warranty is over, but....

This is the estimated average annual insurance premium being charged in your state. The premium has been determined based on annual premium data for defined coverages (liability, comprehensive and collision) from a major insurer.
While this information is specific to vehicle make, model, model year and body type, your personal information is not taken into consideration and could greatly alter the actual premium quoted by an insurer. Factors that will affect your rate include your age, marital status, credit history, driving record, and the garaging address of your vehicle.

Playing the stock market can seem appealing. It is also a huge undertaking. The following article will offer you many great tips to consider as you begin to buy stock, so you can get the most out of your money. Keep reading to learn more about the basics of trading.
Investing in stocks requires you stick to one easy principle: keep it simple! Try to streamline your investing decisions such as prognosticating, trading and reviewing new information as much as you can so that you minimize risks.
Set yourself up with realistic expectations when investing in common stocks. For the most part, instant wealth is not a realistic goal. There are a few stories of people who made killings overnight, but thinking that will happen to you will very likely lead you to take undue risks. Keep this in mind, play it safe, and avoid these costly investing mistakes.
Watch the stock market closely prior to jumping in. Especially before making that first investment, you should get in as much pre-trading study time of the market as you can. The best advise is to watch the upswings and downswings for a period of three years before investing. If you wait long enough, you will know how the market functions and you will be making the right decisions.
Stocks are not merely certificates that are bought and sold. Your purchase represents a share in the ownership in whatever company is involved. You become vested in the earnings and assets that belong to the company. By being a stock holder, you may also even be given the option to vote in elections where corporate leadership is being chosen.
Be sure that you have a number of different investments. You do not want to put all your eggs in one basket, as the saying goes. As an example, suppose you invest all of your money into one stock only to have it tank. You wind up the first million losing your hard-earned savings.
It is prudent to keep a high-earning interest bearing amount of money saved away for an emergency. This allows you to cover medical bills, unemployment costs, or even damage from a disaster which might not be covered by insurance until you get your affairs in order.
If you want to have the full service of a broker but also make your own choices as well, you should find a broker that will offer both full services and online options. This way you'll be able to dedicate part of it to a professional and still handle part of it yourself. This division allows you to have the help of a professional and complete control over your stock actions.
In order to make your stock market investments the most successful, you need to map out a specific plan with strategies and future goals. Your investing plan needs to contain your detailed buying and selling strategies. It should also entail a precise budget which defines your investment limitations. You will be making decisions with your head this way, instead of with your emotions.
Many people are enticed by the stock market. The more you know, the better informed your choices will be. By implementing the advice in this article, you'll be prepared to make sound financial decisions.
Stock Market Strategies That Everyone Must Know
Playing the stock market can seem appealing. It is also a huge undertaking. The following article will offer you many great tips to consider as you begin to buy stock, so you can get the most out of your money. Keep reading to learn more about the basics of trading.

How often does a quarterback who completed less than 50 percent of his passes draw an off-season crowd of 20,000? Well, at least once.
Last Sunday, jersey-clad fans endured long lines to enter a church — in Las Vegas. It could only be to hear Tim Tebow, and it was.
Canyon Ridge Christian Church was filled to hear the Denver Broncos quarterback give his testimony. One family arrived at 4 a.m. Saturday, not Sunday, but Saturday to be the first in line.

I didn't remember the exact date until I looked it up.
But I remember exactly what I was doing Nov. 7, 1991, when an AP news alert broke across the wire, reporting that Earvin "Magic" Johnson was going to announce his retirement from the Los Angeles Lakers.
Immediately I had one thought: "He must have AIDS." Why else would an athlete in the prime of his career announce his retirement?
I was close. Magic announced he was HIV positive. He had the AIDS virus, but he did not have AIDS. The news was...

Meanwhile, Penny (Casey Wilson) and Max (Adam Pally) team up for a cutthroat scavenger hunt.

Breaking News:
Cyclone Pan hits Vanuatu.
The president of Vanuatu (Mr. Lonsdale) has told the BBC most of his people are hmeeless after the devastating cyclone that hit the Pacific Island nation on Friday. The categary five storm, with winds of up to 270km/h (170mph) had veered off its expected course and struck populated areas Vanuatu's population of 276,000 is spread over 65 islands with about 47,000 people living in Port Vila. A video from the president (talking from Japan) said communications are broken down.
What this means is we as Hams must be very cautious when operating HF so as not to interfer with ongoing emergency communications. The extent of this disaster will not be known for several days.
Pam had already caused major damage on other Pacific Islands including Kiribati and the Solomon Islands.
Please stay aware of the situation.

The Big Island International Hamfest (swap meet) will be on April 11th at the Keaau Community Center from 9AM to 2PM. This year BIARC is the lead club. The plans are for next years event to be earlier (perhaps February) since the past scheduled month of October is just too congested and during Hurricane season. It is hoped that by changing the date, we will have better weather and perhaps attendees from the mainland.
There will be the normal swap meet, card checking, refreshments, prizes and Testing in the afternoon. Admission if free with donations and registration at the door.
Parking may be limited so try to come early. Early set up will be 8AM.

Drw BrothersDiscussion0
this wiki
Drw Brothers (also known as Drw) is a RuneScape player. He has been 200,000,000 Runecrafting experience since January 19th, 2011. He achieved it shortly after Phoenix Odin. He is currently ranked number 2 on the RuneScape Hiscores for Runecrafting. He has also achieved 99 Runecrafting on Oldschool Runescape, with his current Runecrafting XP being at 14,477,950.
Unlike Phoenix Odin, Drw did not want to stop Runecrafting after he achieved 200M Runecrafting experience, so he created an account called Drw II in which he got over 21,000,000 extra Runecrafting xp at ZMI on that account before Runespan. As of now, Drw II has over 30,000,000 Runecrafting XP, but he has quit runecrafting on him since the release of Runespan. He considers Runespan one of the worst updates of all time because in his mind it has "ruined Runecrafting." Now those who couldn't stand the old style of RC (Graahk/ZMI) because of the slow xp and not being able to AFK it, now enjoy the nerfed xp rates of Runespan and being able to AFK it.
His Runecrafting rates at ZMI consisted of sub 60 second average laps with 4 pouches and an abyssal lurker. This was well over 60k Rc xp/hr, but he keeps his true Runecrafting xp/hr confidential.
He achieved 2376 total on December 13th, 2008, before the release of the Dungeoneering skill and he is now 2583 total with Dungeoneering being the only skill left needed to max out. He was quite happy with the release of Master Capes, since he is now able to wear a 120 Runecrafting cape. Drw currently has 200M Runecrafting and Cooking XP, 120 Agility and 120 Divination.
He also needs to stop.

Well, reports are coming in that Remote DVR Service has been restored in our area. I just checked via mobile web and that didn't work. I checked via My Services and that did work. Since Navigator is the same version, it was likely a headend issue.
Also, I made the switch to Signature Home today. My install is scheduled for the 26th (at my request). They had openings as early as two days from now, but my schedule doesn't permit it plus I have some recordings to catch up on. I also want it on a day I have off so I can be around. The Pre-install setup was painless & truly like dealing with a completely different set of CSR's. I requested 2 Cisco 8642's and numerous times I was asked to leave feedback after the install. I will report once the install is complete and I have time to play with everything.
The package cost will be $210 (total with taxes and fees)
I've got the 8642 cisco box and a harmony one remote. My current tv lamp died (so waiting on new one to be delivered) so I moved an old 19" crt tv down and attached it to the box and we've been using that for the last 2 days. One of the things I've noticed is how fast the TW remote works with the 8642 compared to my harmony remote. So I am looking at the inter-key delay option so see what I can adjust. Currently it is set to 0 ms, anyone else using this setup? What is your interkey-delay set for with the 8642 cisco box? I thought initially it was just navigator being extremely slow and never bothered to try the actual TW remote that came with the box.

Acting OMB Director Jeffrey Zients released a memo to step up strategic sourcing efforts.
It largely went unnoticed, but the federal contracting world might have shifted on Dec. 5.
A memo from the Office of Management and Budget has given strategic sourcing a new visibility by changing a working group into a standing council that will lead a governmentwide initiative to encourage agencies to collaborate on procurements whenever possible.
OMB's acting director, Jeffrey Zients, released the memo to push forward strategic sourcing efforts across the government. He wrote that the memo establishes a broad initiative that "agencies join together to negotiate the best deal for the taxpayer."
The approach has been around for years but not adhered to on a broad scale. Now, though, experts say strategic sourcing has caught the attention of senior officials in the administration who work on a broader policy scale. It is significant that Zients issued the memo, rathe OFPP Administrator Joe Jordan.
Experts also say the memo reflects the Obama administration's emphasis on strategic sourcing as a way to address the government's ongoing budget pressures. OMB's move is indicative of a desire for centralized approval of procurement strategies to get lower prices and save money.
"Is this true tectonics?" asked Michael Del Colle, an independent consultant. "I think it bears watching." In the past, officials have confined the drive mainly to agencies' acquisition offices. But now they are expanding its scope.
In the memo, Zients raised a working group in the Chief Acquisition Officers Council to be on par with that council and the other CXO councils. For the governmentwide initiative, the new Interagency Strategic Sourcing Leadership Council will team up with a broad number of councils, including the Chief Financial Officers Council, the CIO Council and the Performance Improvement Council.
Robert Burton, former deputy administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy and now a partner at the Venable law firm, said there is no significant difference between the working group and the leadership council, except that Zients has made it more visible.
In 2005, OMB made a similar push for strategic sourcing. Officials were told to find several commodities that they could buy in bulk. However, there was no governmentwide council, and OMB put the CAOs largely in charge of leading the internal initiatives.
The new council includes officials from the major departments, the General Services Administration, NASA and the Small Business Administration.
Nevertheless, several sources predicted that the administration will have a tough time taking strategic sourcing governmentwide. As in the past, agency officials will bicker over which commodities are fit for strategic sourcing. Experts say the arguing might diminish the usefulness of the effort, especially when it comes to buying IT, because agencies have their own requirements.
"Agencies definitely push back because everyone feels like they're a little bit different," Burton said.
He noted that it has been hard to get agency buy-in over the years. Now, however, officials might be willing to take a closer look at the money-saving initiative. The budget situation has put bulk buying in a new light, Burton said, and agencies might be more willing to use strategic sourcing.

Using a computer program Reich and Myers wrote specifically to sort the massive amounts of data, Hinch identified places in the genomes of the 30,000 people where switches occurred between African and European ancestry, detecting about 70 per person. These switches correspond to recombination events in the last couple of hundred years, resulting in the more than 2 million recombination events that the researchers used to build the map.
The study was only possible because of collaboration from 81 co-authors from many institutions, using DNA samples from five large studies that had previously been carried out to study common diseases such as heart disease and cancer, funded by the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Defense, and many private foundations.
"All the co-authors worked together in an incredibly collegial way to put together the enormous set of samples and high quality genetic data that made this study a success," Wilson said.

McCarthy maturity
With a pass success rate of 88%, James McCarthy was a key factor in Everton's highly impressive performance at Arsenal. We take an in-depth look at the midfielder's growing responsibility after his fine display at the Emirates
By Peter Fraser - Follow me on Twitter @SkySportsPeteF. Last Updated: 08/12/13 10:37pm
James McCarthy: Republic of Ireland coach Roy Keane believes the midfielder can be a 'top player'
Goalscoring substitute Gerard Deulofeu or rising England star Ross Barkley may have been the more glamorous performances from Everton's engrossing draw at Arsenal on Sunday but the role played by James McCarthy was integral in earning a well-deserved point at Emirates Stadium.
The Scottish-born Republic of Ireland international is at times even overshadowed by on-loan team-mate Gareth Barry when praise is being lavished on this current Everton squad but his contribution should not be underestimated.
McCarthy was integral against Arsene Wenger's table-topping team, who had taken the lead through Mesut Ozil in the 80th minute before Deulofeu's equaliser four minutes later, and his role was key in helping Roberto Martinez's men to the point which keeps them fifth in the Premier League.
At just 23-years-old, McCarthy's experienced performance demonstrated he is already fulfilling the potential which convinced Martinez to bring the central midfielder with him from Wigan Athletic in a £13million deal this summer.
Arsenal v Everton starting line-ups
Arsenal recalled striker Olivier Giroud along with full-back Kieran Gibbs, who had started on the bench for the midweek win over Hull City. Midfielders Jack Wilshere and Mikel Arteta were also back in the first XI after their midweek rest among the substitutes. England forward Theo Walcott was again on the bench.
Everton were looking to build on their 1-0 win at Manchester United and Romelu Lukaku, on loan from Chelsea, again led the attack in an unchanged XI from that side who silenced Old Trafford. Ross Barkley was the man tasked with supplying the support from midfield for lone striker Lukaku. Bryan Oviedo, the goalscoring hero of the victory over United, kept his place in the absence of injured left-back Leighton Baines. McCarthy, meanwhile, was alongside Barry as the two men who sat in deep midfield.
Story of the game
Sky Sports expert and former Manchester United defender Gary Neville summed it up midway through the first half when he said: "When we used to play against Arsenal, they had players in between your structure and they were difficult to know where they were. But they are actually on the other foot today. Everton are taking up fantastic positions - Kevin Mirallas and Steven Pienaar are coming off the wide positions, the full-backs are wide and Barkley is picking up intelligent areas in the pitch."
Everton, passing in triangles and with players drifting in between the lines of Arsenal's formation, were superb for the opening 40 minutes and finished the first half with 317 passes to their hosts' 196. Martinez's visitors also had a superior passing accuracy of 87.07 per cent compared to Arsenal's 75.51%. Additionally, Everton had enjoyed 137 more touches of the ball than their opponents.
|First-Half Statistics
|Total Passes ( Excl Crosses & Corners )
|Passing Accuracy
It is rare that Arsenal are out-passed to such an extent, with their first-half possession of 37.9% proving to be less than their record overall Premier League match lows at the Emirates against Manchester City last season (40%) and Liverpool in 2008 (42%). The key factor in Arsenal's difficulties was McCarthy, whose 97% pass completion rate in the first half was the best of any player on the field. The midfielder sat in the centre circle alongside Barry and dictated play as Everton spread their formation to expose a compact Arsenal. Barry and McCarthy, especially, were providing the possession with a platform to the likes of Barkley, who without that service would not have been able to go and hurt Arsenal in the manner in which Neville had described.
Everton (r) spread out, with McCarthy (16) and Barry (18) sitting, in the first half to expose a compact Arsenal (l)
For all their dominance, Everton did not test Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny with a shot on target in the entirety of the first half. But Wenger's home team similarly struggled for a shot and did not muster an effort until the 43rd minute. That did spark a strong finish to the half from Arsenal and Tim Howard was forced to make a handful of saves to mean the Everton goalkeeper went in at the break having touched the ball eight more times than Szczesny.
The timelines demonstrate how the game came to life either side of half-time after a slow start in terms of shots
Arsenal also began strongly immediately after half-time but they never took control of midfield and the game evened out. Again, McCarthy was vital in maintaining that foothold for Everton. He was the responsible player who sat in midfield despite being the less experienced member of Everton's central pairing. Barry was given more permission from Martinez to get forward. This was demonstrated by the fact the Manchester City loanee played more passes in the opposition half (51) compared to McCarthy (27) but this is still unusual. It is difficult to imagine many players of McCarthy's age being trusted as the player to fight the urge to break forward while he also has younger legs than Barry.
That Martinez is prepared to put his faith McCarthy says it all about his increasing maturity. It is something to which Republic of Ireland coach Roy Keane alluded in November's international break, when he said having watched McCarthy: "He is certainly progressing very, very well and certainly when he steps up a level, I have seen him against the very good teams and he has stepped up, which is a very, very good sign. My first impression is that the boy has a chance of being a top player."
With McCarthy and Barry dominating central areas, Wenger tellingly made a triple substitution and his changes were all in midfield, with Aaron Ramsey, Santi Cazorla and Wilshere the men to go off. The last time Wenger had made a triple substitute was against Martinez and McCarthy's Wigan in December 2011 - albeit when Arsenal were already 4-0 up and cruising to victory.
The introduction of Walcott, especially, helped Arsenal in adding some pace in wide areas and it was his header across goal which led to Ozil's goal. But still McCarthy helped Everton maintain control in central midfield and ultimately equalise through much-praised substitute Deulofeu. McCarthy lost possession only nine times during the game, which was less than any other Everton player apart from centre-back pair Phil Jagielka and Sylvain Distin, who of course had the luxury of more time on the ball compared to the congested midfield.
McCarthy's passing (l) and touches of the ball (r) were intelligent and he stayed in responsible areas of the pitch
Following on from a similarly impressive performance in the win over United, McCarthy finished the game against Arsenal having won only one of his four duels. But it was in his simple yet smart use of the ball that Everton were able to build for a draw which was the least their performance merited. He ended the game with an 88.2% success rate in his passing which was more than any other midfielder on the field who had produced more than 50 passes. It was a mature, composed and subtly influential performance. In McCarthy, Everton have a midfielder of class and dependability for the present and future.
Arsene Wenger's view
"It was a very intense game and you have to say Everton were a very good side today. They gave us a difficult time, especially at the start of the game in the first half-an-hour. After that we had better control in the final 15 minutes of the first half and the second half but they remained always dangerous on counter-attacks."
Roberto Martinez's view
"The performance - I could not be happier. The only bit of criticism is you need to take your chances, in the final third we were not ruthless enough. But I am really, really pleased. The character is really strong. We conceded really late from an unlikely source but we did not accept defeat."
Paul Merson's view
"I thought this would be a hard game and Arsenal did not play well today but Everton did not let them play. They never played well and they never lost. They have played badly a couple of times this season, once against Aston Villa and once at Old Trafford and they lost both games, that is the positive."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Prevention worth pounds of cure
No matter who is in power at city hall, elected officials routinely cite crime and safety among their top priorities.
But robust emergency services come with an ever-increasing price tag, governments have learned after fulfilling election promises to hire more police, paramedics and firefighters.
In the City of Winnipeg, the combined cost of the police service and fire-paramedic service will be $406 million this year, a figure that represents 44 per cent of all city spending on services.
That figure has jumped almost $100 million in five years, from $308 million in 2009, when emergency services accounted for 39 per cent of the city's total operational spending.
The city has no control over one factor that's driving up the cost: arbitrated contract settlements with unions representing police and firefighters, who do not have the right to strike.
But the unions are not to blame for political decisions to hire more members of their ranks. In fact, for years, police, paramedics and firefighters have been pleading with politicians to improve the social services that contribute to a high number of emergency calls, noting emergency workers should not be forced to play the role of social workers.
The Winnipeg Police Advisory Board, a short-lived body commissioned by Mayor Sam Katz, suggested crime could not be reduced in this city through law enforcement alone. Its conclusion: No amount of police officers on the street can prevent the problems that take place inside homes, let alone alleviate the poverty, substance abuse and family breakdown that contribute to violence.
Likewise, firefighters and paramedics complain of repeated calls to aid the same patients in distress. While there are housing models that could greatly reduce the cost of emergency response, the responsibility for social services, health care and housing lie with other levels of government.
Until such services improve, the city spends more and more to provide all citizens with emergency services.
-- Bartley Kives

It looks like all the negative press surrounding Delta's decision to only release the earning and not burning half of its new SkyMiles program got the airline to reverse course. We now have the full 2015 award chart clearly showing what's changing. Frankly, the new award chart doesn't look all that different except for the addition of two more tiers. We don't know how availability will change at the low level, but now that we have a mostly clear picture, what do you think?

In 1878, Memphis was hit by one of the worst epidemics to ever strike an American city. One in eight people died from a yellow fever outbreak, and the survivors fled Memphis en masse.
Memphis' population fell from 47,000 to 19,000 in the space of two months. The city was unable to pay its municipal debts, and temporarily lost its city charter.
For several years, Memphis was officially a taxing district instead of a city, but the efforts of the remaining inhabitants of Memphis led the city to rise from the ashes. By 1900, the population of Memphis was 102,320.
