7200 rpm vs. 5400 rpm for the new MacBook Pro?
Hi there,
I'm ready to buy one of the new MacBook Pros. I was going to go for the 15" 2.0 GH. There's one thing that's difficult to decide. Should I go for the 7200 rpm HD upgrade? In principle it would seem that the default 5400 rpm HD would act as a bottleneck for the new and powerful CPUs. I heard some people say, though, that the 5400 rpm HDs are fast enough and that I would not notice any difference. Therefore, spending the extra money on a faster HD would be a waste. There is also the concern about battery life. Would a 7200 rpm HD reduce the battery time considerably vs. a 5400 HD? Since this would be my work computer, I would not want to sacrifice performance. So, if there is no significant difference in battery life and a considerable gain in performance, I would definitely go for the 7200 rpm option. What is your experience and/or opinion? I've always gotten very good advice from people in the Mac Rumors forums. I'm anxiously waiting for your response so that I can go ahead and enjoy the new Mac Book Pro. JM |

My own strategy is to save the $100 on the upgrade, and apply that to a 128GB SSD in a few months for about $200.
In this way, you also get to keep the HDD that comes with it and can install that in place of the DVD drive. This doesn't work for everyone though. But to pay $100 for some more RPMs, to me, a poor value.

The problem about the base config on the 15 is that you are forced to take the slow HD, unless you want to pay for overpriced upgrades. If you care about performance at all, you will have to replace the HD as soon as you get it. Some people are not comfortable doing this, although it is very easy.

Re: 7200 rpm vs. 5400 rpm for the new MacBook Pro?
Thanks for your answers, guys.
I agree that the SSD option would be ideal. I use often one of the new MacBook Airs with SSD HD and it is amazingly fast. The problem is, SSD memory is still very expensive. One could buy an SSD module and install it in the DVD player slot but with 128 GB I would only have space for my basic applications. Data would still have to be stored in the default HD. Then what? If you are editing video or searching through large amounts of data stored in the mechanic hard disk, having SSD for your apps would not be much help, would it? I'm just asking. Perhaps somebody has already implemented this mixed solution and can tell us how it works. That's why I was asking whether there would be important differences in performance between the default 5400 rpm and the optional 7200 rpm unit. JM |

Any noticeable speeds will depend on your usage. If you can tolerate the extra few seconds on boot time then go for the slower drive. A lot of people just put their MBPs to sleep rather than do a complete shutdown anyway. App launches might lag a bit but its not a show stopper. If you do a lot of big data transfers you'll most probably notice the difference.
Impact on battery life with a faster drive would be negligible. |

Buy a stock MBP and put the 7200 drive in yourself. It's a easy upgrade if you know how to use a screwdriver (you will need a Torx 6 driver too). You'll spend less money and get an extra drive out of it too. But the best thing is that YOU can select the exact brand drive you want and not a random Apple OEM which are not always the best or quietest. Same goes for RAM.
Putting in an SSD (again, yourself, as Apple's SSDs are slow and pricey) is also a great option IF you don't need a lot of internal storage or you are good with content management.

You get some HDD's with 7200rpm that use the same amount of power or less as a 5400rpm. It depends on the brand and model, get the standard one with your drive, by a new one with 7200rpm, clone your HDD, replace the standard HDD with the new one. If you need the optical drive then put the standard drive into an external enclosure, if you dont need the optical drive then install the HDD into there.
Performance wise, i have apples 7200rpm 500gb drive in my BTO Macbook pro, its quick yes, speeds up to 90mb/s couple things that bug me though are the noise and vibrations. its not really that load but definitely louder then fans at 2000-2200rpm. Vibrations are significant, i feel them when putting my hand flat on the palm rest, can be annoying at times. Depending on the surface of where my macbook pro is standing, the vibrations can be transferred to the object, this also produces more noise. when i use my friends macbook pro with 5400 rpm drive im amazed how quiet it is, and how little vibrations there are. thats my little review your call which one you want |

I have the 7200rpm seagate momentus in my aluminum Macbook. I don't find it notably faster. Save the hundred dollars and start an SSD fund. You'd already be halfway there.

I sort of have the same dilemma, 500GB 7200rpm or 750GB 5400rpm. I think I'll be going with the 750GB as 250GBs is more important to me that very slightly quicker.

Thanks for all the great answers. I think it is clear that the best option is to buy the MBP with the default 5400 rpm HD. Just by chance, though, I came across this other thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthre...1135259&page=2) and now I'm getting cold feet about buying one of the new MacBook PROs. This overheating problem is a bit scary.

No offense Sir, but think about what you are saying. The cpu will get hot no matter which emblem is on the lid, so why would Apple's lineup be different? Food for thought. EDIT: also, I vote for buying the 5400 and installing the 7200 yourself.

I say buy it with the 5400 RPM. Use it in stock form and if it is not performing to your requirements, then- let the requirements drive your expenditures and upgrades.
It may be just fine with the 5400 RPM's and you can save for other stuff. |

In mine, i have the 7200. and its obviously faster than 5400.
When you restart, mine only takes about 8 seconds and bootup is like less than 15 sec. My friend had the 5400 (Same 17in 2.2GHz MBP w/ 4GB) and we tested to see the difference but, his Mac didnt stand a chance to my 7200. If you want to go even more faster, buy a SSD but as you know Apple rips you off with SSDs:/ all you lose is 250GB of space and gain more speed on restart, bootup, reading and writing on your HDD.

I installed a Momentus XT 500GB in my '09 MBP Unibody and saw a noticeable improvement. Yes, I would love to have a SSD Optibay + conventional setup, but financially that isn't in the cards right now. OP, the XT hybrid drive is a good option if you don't want to spend the $$ on a full SSD drive.

Fair enough. I normally wouldn't have had the cash either, but I got more money than I had expected for the 2006 Mac Pro I sold to fund the new MBP, so I was able to swing the SSD. Seriously, though, if you save for a few months you could easily swing it, in my opinion. Momentus XT is $100. You can get the new Intel 320 120GB for $230, plus $75 or so for the caddy. Yes that's more than three hundred bucks, but deliberately saving $20 a week for a two months will make up the two hundred dollar difference in under three months. Not bad.

Agriculture Assets Face $8 Trillion Risk from Climate Change, Water Scarcity
Environmental hazards such as climate change, land degradation and water scarcity could wipe out as much as $8 trillion in agriculture assets each year, a major study warned.
The study, released today by the University of Oxford's Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, aims to show the scale of the asset bubble faced by the agricultural sector. The study focuses on so-called stranded assets, a term used to describe environmentally unsustainable assets that suffer from unanticipated or premature write-offs, downward revaluations or are converted to liabilities, and can be caused by a range of environment-related risks.
The potential challenge of stranded assets in agriculture is currently being exacerbated by an ongoing agricultural boom, which is feeding off high commodity prices and poor investment returns elsewhere in the economy to push farmland values to record highs in many markets, the study says.
The study determined value at risk calculations under three scenarios: current, moderate and extreme. The report found a one in 20 chance the world's farmland assets and agricultural capital stock could lose between $4.4 trillion (the current scenario) and $8 trillion (the extreme scenario) in a single year.

What kind of a responsible planet lover condemns their own children with 28 years of science ONLY agreeing their own "comet hit of an earthly emergency" could happen and have never said anything close to "will" happen like they say comet hits are. Not one IPCC warning has said; "eventual" or "inevitable". History will view 28 years of needless CO2 panic and CO2 death threats to billions of children as a pure war crime.
How close to unstoppable warming will science lead us before they finally end this costly debate and actually say it actually WILL happen? A real crisis has a real warning, not; "Help my planet could be on fire maybe."
Note: *Occupywallstreet now does not even mention CO2 in its list of demands because of the bank-funded and corporate run carbon trading stock markets ruled by politicians for taxing the air we breathe.
This is about the fourth time that mememine69 has cut&paste essentially the same meaningless troll-line into a comment section at this site. Here are some of the other occasions:
As on the other occasions, I reply that such troll-lines are false and irrelevant. OccupyWallStreet, for example, has nothing whatsoever to do with climate change. The same can be said for comet hits. And the silly nonsense about scientific certainty is just that: silly nonsense. Such remarks say far more about the lack of scientific understanding posssessed by the person making them; than they do about any science or about the well-accepted scientific standing of climate change.

George Washington and Slavery: A Documentary Portrayal"I never mean (unless some particular circumstance should compel me to it) to possess another slave by purchase; it being among my first wishes to see some plan adopted, by which slavery in this country may be abolished by slow, sure and imperceptible degrees."—George Washington, September 9, 1786 No history of racism in America can be considered complete without taking into account the role that George Washington—the principal founding father—played in helping to mold the racist cast of the new nation. Because General Washington—the universally acknowledged hero of the Revolutionary War—in the postwar period uniquely combined the moral authority, personal prestige, and political power to influence significantly the course and the outcome of the slavery debate, his opinions on the subject of slaves and slavery are of crucial importance to understanding how racism succeeded in becoming an integral and official part of the national fabric during its formative stages.The successful end of the War for Independence in 1783 brought George Washington face-to-face with a fundamental dilemma: how to reconcile the proclaimed ideals of the revolution with the established institution of slavery. So long as black human beings in America could legally be considered the chattel property of whites, the rhetoric of equality and individual freedom was hollow. Progressive voices urged immediate emancipation as the only way to resolve the contradiction; the Southern slave owners, of course, stood firm for the status quo. Washington was caught squarely in the middle. As a Virginia plantation proprietor and a lifelong slaveholder, Washington had a substantial private stake in the economic slave system of the South. However, in his role as the acknowledged political leader of the country, his overriding concern was the preservation of the Union. If Washington publicly supported emancipation, he would almost certainly have to set an example and take steps to dispose of his Mount Vernon slaves. If he spoke out on the side of slavery, how could he legitimately and conscientiously expect to uphold and defend the humanistic goals and moral imperatives of the new nation as expressed in the Declaration of Independence and embodied in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights? His was a balancing act that became more and more difficult to sustain with the passing years. Relying primarily on Washington's own words—his correspondence, diaries, and other written records—supplemented by letters, comments, and eyewitness reports of family members, friends, employees, aides, correspondents, colleagues, and visitors to Mount Vernon, together with contemporary newspaper clippings and official documents pertaining to Washington's relationships with African Americans, Fritz Hirschfeld traces Washington's transition from a conventional slaveholder to a lukewarm abolitionist. George Washington and Slavery will be an essential addition to the historiography of eighteenth-century America and of Washington himself. |

After reading the chapter on Oney Judge I have concerns about the validity of this source. Having done past research on both Washington and Judge I know personally that there is much more to this story than the author puts forth. In addition it cites that her husband's name is John Harris and in all of my research this is the first time I have not seen the name listed as Staines. While the subjects and overall points have truth to them, I would not take this book at face value without further research.

I'd love to get local tips on where to go, what to do, and especially where to eat -- I love food! I am easy to get along with, clean, tidy, and responsible.
Michelle has completed online and offline ID verification.
As a person Michelle is polite, comunicative and appreciate suggestions. As a guest left the apartment arranged. I strongly recommend Michelle to any other host. 10 out of 10
Michelle and his boyfriend were very communicative, we instantly get a fluid talk; as guests, tidy, neat and clean. I would undoubtly host them again.
Michelle is really funny, friendly, polite and just overall the perfect guest. Thanks so much for staying with me and maybe see you in Australia :)
I am especially happy when I have woman guests traveling alone. Michelle was one of them and I had a nice conversation with Michelle, about her hometown Brisbine.
Michelle is charming and discreet. It was a real pleasure hosting her. We are sorry she did not stay longer because there is lots more to see in Brussesl She is welcome back any time !!
We had a great time during Michelle's visit. She was very friendly and considerate, and she certainly made the most of her stay in the city, with marathon walking tours of NYC followed by a cold beer at home with us. We would be very happy to have her back with us any time!

Soledad Pastorutti in 2012
Background information | |
Also known as | La Sole |
Born | Arequito, Argentina |
October 12, 1980
Genres | Folk music, Latin pop, |
Occupation(s) | Singer, songwriter |
Years active | 1995–present |
Labels | Sony Music Latin |
Soledad "La Sole" Pastorutti (born October 12, 1980 in Arequito, Santa Fe) is an Argentine folk singer, who brought the genre to the younger generations at the end of the 20th century, and the beginning of the 21st. She is actress of films and TV. Soledad is the older sister of Argentine singer Natalia Pastorutti.
Her first album, Poncho al Viento, is Sony Music's best-selling album ever in Argentina according to Alberto Caldero, Sony Music's president in the late 90s, in an interview with La Nación newspaper. Her second album, La Sole, is Sony Music Argentina's second best-selling album ever.
César Isella took her under his tutelage in 1995, only 15 years old, to participate in the Cosquín folklore festival. Her presentation with sister Natalia had an important impact, that gave her a contract with Sony Music Argentina to record and release her first album, Poncho al Viento, that very same year.
After one year singing in over 181 villages and cities in Argentina, Soledad was already popular in the whole country and by the time her second album was released, her first album became a huge hit in Argentina.
In three years, her album had already sold over 600,000 copies and became Sony Music's Argentina best-selling album ever. She was so incredibly successful and popular the media called her 'Huracan de Arequito' (Arequito's Hurricane).
In 1997 she edited her second disc, La Sole, which she also presented in several concerts throughout the country, including 10 concerts in Buenos Aires' Teatro Gran Rex. During the whole year, her both albums went to #1 several times. La Sole sold over 400,000 copies in one year.
In 1998 her success kept growing, duplicating the number of concerts at the Teatro Gran Rex, and accompanied the Argentina national football team for the 1998 FIFA World Cup. In Madrid, Spain, she received a distinction from Sony International for reaching a million units sold of her first two works.
Upon her return, Sony Music Argentina recognised her as the best seller artist of the company in all the musical genres, and edited her third album A mi gente, recorded live during her concerts. For the first time, folkloric music was getting huge airplay in radios and discos.
In 1999 she became the protagonist of the movie Edad del Sol (anagram of her name), and recorded her fourth album Yo sí Quiero a mi país this time in studios in Miami under the production of Cuban Emilio Estefan. That album opened doors to other markets in, among others, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Peru, Mexico, United States and Spain in which she would also have concerts.
Edad del Sol was a huge production for Argentina's cinema standard and Clarin reported Soledad asked for three times more than an A-list Argentine actor asks for a movie. The movie, about a graduation trip, was shot in Bariloche. The movie was not as successful as expected and Manuelita, a cartoon based on a popular children song, stole the spotlight and was the most successful national movie in 20 years. The movie also was not well received by critics.
In 2000 she returned, after 2 years, to Buenos Aires for 3 concerts at the Luna Park. In August she participated in the Martigues Folklore Festival where she was widely praised. Back in Argentina she started recording her fifth album, released in October of that year. Before the release, La Sole performed at the Barbican Centre of London during a festival of Argentine cinema and music. She also participated of the 2000 Viña del Mar International Song Festival in Chile, considered the most important recurring music festival in Latin America, where she received the Audience prize.
Her sixth album was recorded in 2001, produced by Alejandro Lerner and Fernando Isella, with a renovated style. She had again concerts at the Gran Rex, and received the "Silver Torch" award at the Viña del Mar Festival.
Soledad debuted on TV in the telenovela (soap opera) Rincón de Luz in 2003.
Personal life[edit]
After seven years with her boyfriend Jeremías Audoglio, they married on April 28 in Arequito. On June 10, 2010, she and Jeremias had a daughter, Antonia Audoglio Pastorutti, in Rosario, Santa Fe (Argentina). They had a second daughter, Regina, on February 19, 2013.[citation needed]

Key Info |
Casa Roja is located in the coastal countryside of the charming village of Aguilas in the Southeastern province of Murcia. Here you´ll find the best of both worlds - the peace and quiet of the countryside, yet just a few minutes drive to the sea. Many of our guests have chosen us as the perfect "destress" holiday. The local coastline is untouched by development, with still wild coastal trails to ramble, and numerous coves to privately sunbathe or snorkel. The waters here are unpolluted and crystal clear. The apartment is south facing with its own private garden with sunbeds and terrace. Ample shopping is only a 15 minute drive to Aguilas, which also offers a variety of cafes, bars and restaurants, long seaside promenades, a hilltop castle with stunning views of the town and the sea, and a beautiful botanical square to sit for a coffee, a drink, or a plate of tapas. The entrance to the AP7 motorway, with links to Cartagena and Almeria, is less than 10 minutes away from the lodging. The apartment has been decorated by an interior designer with a mix of the comfortably modern and details unique to Spain. The owner is a trained chef, and can provide dinners on the terrace by request.

About this location
The Murcia region
The Costa Calida in Murcia is one of the least developed coastlines in all the Mediterranean, let alone Spain. There´s a average year round temperature of 25º celcius with limited rainfall and desertlike vegetation similar to the north coast of Africa.
The nearby town of Lorca hosts a series of spectacular easter week (semana santa) processions through the centre of town and a summer nights arts and music festival with international acts performing under the stars in the grounds of the castle which overlooks Lorca. The town itself features many examples of Spanish baroque architecture.
The fishing port of Aguilas stays virtually unchanged through the seasons, being a normal working town. There´s a seaside promenade which stretches along the town´s coast and the lush central square, Plaza España, offers several areas to sit for an al fresco coffee, beer or ice cream. The weekly market is where all the town gathers to stock up on anything from clothes to olives and roasted almonds.
Aguilas is famous for its scuba diving, with sunken ships and underwater caves to explore. There are several schools on hand to help the novice. In February, the town goes into a frenzy with its carnival and the entire town turned out in fancy dress.

State of the Art: Linux Audio 2008
The demands of professional audio production require a different order of performance from a sound server. None of the servers mentioned above are capable of drop-out free performance under heavy resource demand—for example, multichannel recording with high sample rates and bit depths—and they cannot be considered suitable under pro-audio conditions. Fortunately, Linux has JACK, a truly professional-grade audio server and master transport system. If you plan on producing professional-quality audio with Linux sound and music software, you need to know JACK.
JACK development is steady and continues to expand the system's capabilities. JackMIDI is showing up in more applications, and the jackdmp Project points the way toward JACK's future on multiprocessor architectures. Current versions already run on OS X, and there's even been a successful port to Windows. Currently supported back ends now include ALSA, OSS, PulseAudio, FreeBob/FFADO (for FireWire devices) and CoreAudio (on OS X).
Erik de Castro Lopo has contributed some essential components to the Linux audio infrastructure. His libsndfile provides programmers with a comprehensive library for handling file I/O for a great variety of soundfile formats, and his libsamplerate has found broad acceptance as the preferred tool for high-quality sample rate conversion. These libraries relieve applications programmers from the burden of writing code for very common tasks, and both packages are common dependencies throughout the world of Linux audio software. I'm also happy to report that both libraries are currently maintained.
The sound-related software most familiar to typical users includes media players, games and audio communication devices. In each instance, the application itself does not handle audio directly, instead relying on the kernel's sound API (that is, ALSA). This reliance frees application developers to focus on features, rather than on how to interface with users' sound hardware.
Linux music players are a mixed blessing. For average users, programs such as Amarok, Banshee, Rhythmbox and the XMMS clan work well for playing most audio formats (MP3, Ogg, WAV, AIFF and so on). AlsaPlayer continues to provide a lighter-weight player, not so feature-rich but stable and JACK-savvy. JACK-awareness is one of my personal complaints with most of the current music players, but I have reason to hope that the major players will get it and at least provide a plugin for JACK connectivity. And, while I'm dreaming, I'd also like to see Linux media players adopt the JACK master control system. More typical wish lists include true gapless playback and support for huge collections. The development teams of the popular players are quite aware of these requests and are working to address them in future releases. As Figure 1 indicates, some developers are indeed moving forward.
Multimedia players, such as MPlayer and Xine, continue their development march forward. These projects are well established, and many users rely on them heavily for more than just DVD and video file playback. MPlayer (and its sister software MEncoder) is a veritable toolkit for a wide variety of video and audio tasks, and the Xine library is used by many other applications that need video capabilities. Both programs play a wide variety of video and audio formats, and both include hooks for user-friendly GUIs.
Alas, there is a snake in the grass in this field. Video players depend on codecs that provide support for the seemingly endless variety of video formats, and many popular formats are patent-encumbered. One immediate result of this situation is the difficulty or impossibility of including these codecs in a mainstream Linux distribution. Some distros simply point users to a repository where they can download the necessary packages, but it would, of course, be better if the codecs could be installed along with the players. However, until patent law reform takes place (in the US, at least), there can be no other way to supply the software.
Playback of encrypted DVDs also is problematic. It appears that the MPAA is no longer pursuing legal action against distribution of the DCSS software, but distribution vendors remain hesitant to include the software directly. Again, users typically are directed to a distribution point on the Internet where they can acquire the software they need to watch their legally purchased discs. Although these extra steps may seem trivial to seasoned users, they often are confusing and seem unnecessary to novices, especially when there is little or no understanding of the legal ramifications. Nevertheless, until patent encumbrance and copyright entanglements are things of the past, the extra steps will be necessary if users expect fully functional media playback.

Jackdmp comment
"Currently supported back ends now include ALSA, OSS, PulseAudio, FreeBob/FFADO (for FireWire devices) and CoreAudio (on OS X)."
Not exactly, PulseAudio is not supported, but a PortAudio driver to be used for Jackdmp Windows version.

Ouch, you're right, I meant Portaudio. Thanks for the correction. :)

One after another, the voices came, some shy, some accented, some powerful with emotion.
They came from ordinary people, each reciting a line from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1963 "I Have a Dream" speech in which he envisioned a nation where little black children and little white children could play together, and where his four children would "not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
The speech, which was presented as a film entitled "We Have a Dream," created by Malden Access Television, was the centerpiece of Reading's Martin Luther King Day celebration Monday morning, well attended in spite of a sloppy snowfall that made the morning tough to navigate.
The celebration, held at the Reading Memorial High School Performing Arts Center, was a group effort
by the Town of Reading, the Reading Clergy Association, the Human Relations Advisory Committee, and RMHS. The collaboration demonstrated a "concerted effort to have a truly town-wide event that is open to all people," said Rev. Tim Kurtzmark of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Reading.
It was also the second year in a row that the event was slammed by bad weather, he said.
The snow kept the Reading Community Singers off of the program, but in the spirit of the morning, the RMHS Singers and the RMHS Mixed Choir came together to open the program with a performance of "Let the River Run," and also performed several other spirituals. The vocal ensemble of the Korean Church of the Nazarene also performed.
The Reverend Lisa Stedman of the First Congregational Church led the opening prayer, welcoming those who "have risen from your beds and shoveled your way out."
Stedman asked those present to remember those in Haiti strugging in the wake of last week's earthquake, with a moment of silent prayer.
"Let us pray for Haiti and our world," she said.
Dr. John Doherty, Superintendent of Schools, spoke briefly of his predecessor, Patrick Schettini, who died of cancer last month:
"Superintendent Schettini always looked forward to this event, " he said. "It was one of the things he was passionate about, tolerance and inclusion. I look forward to continuing it."
The RMHS Drama Department performed "The Story of Rosa Parks," a dramatic reenactment of Parks' refusal to relinquish her bus seat to a white passenger, and the subsequent Montgomery bus boycott, which launched King to national prominence when he came out in support of Parks after her arrest.
Without the Reading Community Singers to close the program, the audience instead took up the singing of "We Shall Overcome," a spiritual that came to symbolize the Civil Rights movement.
They were shy and hesitant at first, but by the end all of the voices rose together in the final verse: "We shall all be free, we shall all be free, we shall all be free someday. Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe, we shall all be free someday."

A letter has been sent to House Speaker John Boehner, asking him to add language to the debt ceiling legislation that would prevent the use of federal funds for abortions. Currently, people with plans that provide elective abortions can pay a dollar and get coverage for their abortion.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
9/30/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in Politics & Policy
Keywords: Obamacare, abortion, mandate, individual, insurance, cost, conscience, taxes, amendments
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - According to CNS News, the letter was sent to Boehner from 72 of his colleagues in the House and implored him to act on behalf of unborn children and religious freedom on September 25.
The letter asks, "Specifically, we are asking that you incorporate H.R. 940, the Health Care Conscience Rights Act, along with a cessation of federal dollars for abortions into the continuing resolution or legislation addressing the debt ceiling."
According to the letter, H.R. 940 would also amend Obamacare to protect both businesses and individuals from being forced to pay for coverage that includes "items or services against which they have deeply held moral or religious objections."
Such a law, if passed, would restore religious freedom and freedom of conscience for individuals including employers. To be clear, it would not excuse employers from providing health insurance, just that part which is morally objectionable, i.e. the killing of unborn children.
There can be no question that the Obama administration has pursued a pattern of behavior that attacks basic religious liberties. Recent court rulings are mentioned in the letter such as the federal appeals court decision on September 17 that said Autocam Corporation, despite being owned by devout Catholics, cannot be exempted from the Obamacare HHS edict.
This means the business owning family must now choose between earning a living and providing jobs to others, a commendable and moral obligation, while violating their conscience and committing sin, or closing their business to protect what is more important, the fundamental human right to life of all persons. This is reprehensible! It is a clear injustice and violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution.
The letter points out that the Affordable Care Act does in fact pay for elective abortions, a change from decades of prior precedent.
Thanks to President Obama, abortion is free and we're paying for it, one way or another. In fact, anyone who has a plan that happens to also cover "elective abortions" will also pay a "$1 fee" which will go towards a special fund designed specifically to pay for abortions.
Meanwhile, lifesaving medical procedures, even giving birth, costs money.
Although the proposed amendment is both wise and appropriate, nobody expects any significant changes to Obamacare. The broad consensus is that some Republicans are positioning themselves for reelection by authoring letters, making largely symbolic votes. Some of the more cynical even perceive the efforts of Ted Cruz as intended to curry favor with some conservative voters.
It is expected that the Republicans, despite some of their personal convictions, will eventually pass a measure giving Obama his credit limit increase while doing nothing to fix or stop Obamacare. Even if the government does go into a temporary shutdown, nobody expects it to last.
Ultimately, voters must take a harder stance on the issues and elect representatives who will do more than grandstand , but will actually make a hard, principled stand on the issues that are essential to life in a truly free society.

Think again. Social Media is not a Job, it's a Skill!
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Business, Human Behavior, Marketing, Technology on September 18, 2012
If I started off with saying Social Media is important for Businesses, I'd sound time-shifted backward by at least 2 years. Everyone knows that already. In the last year or so, I've not heard a single serious business that's not trying to "do" some social media. They typically start with a Twitter Account, an FB […]
Incentive! What Incentive?
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Human Behavior, Leadership, Management on March 19, 2011
There are many employees (if you want to call them that) that love their job so much that they just don't care what the incentive is. They just want to excel at what they do. They just love the work they do. And that's the kind of employee one should ever want in their team for the right job. No incentive ever helps if the person you employed doesn't love doing "what you expect them to do".
Systems Today, Culture Tomorrow. Don't Tweak!
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Business, Human Behavior, Leadership, Management on June 15, 2010
Not all organizations may realize that some of the tweaks in policies and systems actually end up as the key determinant of the longer term direction that "organizational culture" takes. When tweaking systems and policies for shorter term goals, do not lose sight of the longer term effects on culture and mindset of people working in the organization. Systems and Policies of today are the organizational culture of tomorrow!
SLAs Drive Mediocre Services, Not Customer Delight!
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Leadership, Management, Technology on May 25, 2010
SLAs are great way to manage contractual obligations. One would hope that they would bring the much needed quality of service in business, but that's unfortunately not the case. They are just not geared for "customer happiness", They are designed, and used in a way, to keep the management from frowning! As far as I know, SLAs (or with a benefit of doubt, badly designed ones) are the root cause of mediocre services.

Great Aesthetics, Good Notes, Bad Design!

SALT LAKE CITY -- Mormons may not know until the hereafter what causes same-sex attraction, but "God loves all his children" and expects everyone to do the same, a top Mormon leader said Oct. 24.
While the message -- delivered to more than 200,000 Utah Mormons -- may not seem significant, the messenger was.
As second counselor in the governing First Presidency, Dieter F. Uchtdorf is one of the highest-ranking leaders in the hierarchy of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to address the thorny topic of same-sex attraction.
The gentle tone and emphasis of Uchtdorf's remarks came in the wake of a speech by Boyd K. Packer, senior member of the LDS Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, who said homosexual "tendencies" can be "overcome." Packer later changed "tendencies" to "temptations" on the church's website.
Packer's speech generated national controversy and protests from church-members and non-Mormons, many of whom saw the apostle's statements as contributing to the self-loathing and suicides of gays.
In response to the outcry, LDS spokesman Michael Otterson issued a strongly worded condemnation of bullying and belittling of gays, saying, "Their struggle is our struggle."
On Sunday, Uchtdorf reiterated the church's position that it doesn't know the cause of homosexuality and that it doesn't matter.
"Many questions in life, however, including some related to same-gender attractions, must await a future answer, even in the next life," Uchtdorf said. "Until then, the truth is, God loves all his children, and because he loves us, we can trust him and keep his commandments."

Chargers Thank Fans Across All of San Diego

The entire Chargers roster took to the streets of San Diego Monday to thank fans all across America's Finest City. Divided into seven position groups, the team spent the entire afternoon hitting hot spots around the city to surprise and mingle with fans, showing their appreciation for their loyal support.
Photo Gallery: Thank You San Diego Day | More Photos
"This day is our day to say thank you to San Diego," said Executive Vice President - Chief Executive Officer A.G. Spanos. "We're proud to be San Diego's team. We've got the entire team out in full force along with the Charger Girls and members of our staff to show our appreciation to San Diego. Really the team is out in force to say thank you."
General Manager Tom Telesco agreed the day was a special opportunity that the Chargers relished.
"This gives us a great chance to get out in the community and meet people and say thank you to the fans that support us," he said. "The fans are with us week after week, so the chance to get out and tell them what they mean to us, it's great."
The event was an unmitigated success with the players enjoying the rare chance to canvas the entire city and spend hours with fans taking photos and talking about all things Chargers. They even gave away a bunch of game tickets.
"Today was one of the best days of my life," said Greg Brandt. "For these players to come out and see us and talk about football and also our lives, it was amazing. I'll remember it forever."
Starting shortly before 1:00pm, seven team busses departed from Chargers Park to a number of destinations. The running backs visited Old Town where they made tortillas before jumping on the Trolley to visit a local downtown fire station. The quarterbacks, tight ends and specialists started off at the zoo, where they fed the giraffes and spent an hour with fans before heading off to the airport. Hitting the beach were the wide receivers, who rode the roller coaster and walked the boardwalk. They then paid a visit to Sea World where they participated in the dolphin show and dropped in on Shamu. The defensive backs went shopping, joining patrons around multiple malls in Mission Valley before heading off to Boomer's for a round in the batting cages. Heading north were the linebackers, making a stop at the Sorrento Valley area before ending up at Legoland. The offensive line went south, visiting a couple of stores before taking a plunge at the new Aquatica Water Park in Chula Vista. Finally, the defensive line visited the oncology and pediatric unit at Kaiser Hospital before heading east to Lemon Grove and La Mesa, where they made pizzas at Sanfilippo's.
While the Chargers organization has provided countless memories for the city of San Diego over the years, the team was humbled by the outpouring of support they received today. Long after the event ended and the team arrived back at the facility, the players remained behind, sharing stories of fans they got to meet and places they visited. Without a doubt, "Thank You San Diego Day" is something each and every player will remember long after their careers have ended.

The sponsors of Referendum 71, who seek to put Washington's expanded domestic-partnership regulations on the November ballot, must not be allowed to make their citizen lawmaking an anonymous act.
Referendum and initiative petitions are public records and must remain so. People who sign such petitions are engaging in the legislative process.
Attempting to make, amend or stop a law is the most public of civic business.
The government cannot block the names of people who sign petitions out of a vague, undefined fear of what might happen. The subtle slander of the opposition's presumed unstable nature and lawless behavior is clear.
Just as clearly, harassment of those who sign petitions is unlawful, and will be punished.
Sponsors of Referendum 71, which seeks to refer Washington's expansion of domestic-partnership regulations to voters, have sued the state Elections Division in federal court, to prevent the release of signatures. A Sept. 3 hearing is scheduled. The state Attorney General's office pledged to vigorously defend the Public Disclosure Act.
Petition details are available to those who file a public-information request. The information cannot be used for commercial purposes, but political parties or organizations can parse the records to find kindred spirits or the names of those who supported another point of view.
Intimidation fears were stirred by an organization that sponsors a Web site, knowthyneighbor.org, which said it would publish a database with names and addresses of people who sign the R-71 petitions.
Under current state law, none of the petition information may be withheld. The Legislature could create exemptions, for say signatures or e-mail addresses. The idea of making these citizen lawmakers completely anonymous serves no constructive purpose.
This is all about expansion of the state's domestic-partnership law. The Legislature strongly approved giving same-sex couples, and heterosexual couples with a partner age 62 or older, all the state benefits and obligations of married couples. They put all families on the same legal footing for sharing a life together and raising children. People who oppose the law have every right to try and block its implementation. They cannot do it secretly and anonymously.

Kingston Passenger Ferry Service Canceled Thursday, Friday
The Port of Kingston's SoundRunner passenger-only ferry service will be canceled Thursday and Friday while workers change out an engine in the Spirit of Kingston.
The ferry threw a rod in one of its four engines on its first day of service Oct. 18 and has been running with three engines ever since. The engines are less than two years old and under warranty.
The port is working with the warranty company, which has another engine available, port commissioner Pete DeBoer said. The boat will sail to Seattle, where the engine will be removed and replaced with the new one. DeBoer said he hopes to have the ferry back by Sunday.
The port can't run its backup boat, Victoria Express, because crew members need more training on it and those who would be operating it will be changing out the Spirit's engine, DeBoer said.
