Cameron's Leap Off the Fiscal Cliff
Britain embraced austerity instead of following the advice of its own economic giants. What was David Cameron thinking?
- By Daniel AltmanDaniel Altman is senior editor, economics at Foreign Policy and is an adjunct professor at New York University's Stern School of Business. Follow him on Twitter: @altmandaniel.
How did Britain end up with such a terrible economic policy? The birthplace of John Maynard Keynes, John Hicks, and other economic giants was just starting to recover from the global financial crisis when its new leaders forced it back into recession with enormous cuts to the public sector. Two years into their government, the failure of the Tories and their coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, looks like a case of overriding ideology mixed with naïve mistakes.
The British economy is the same size now, roughly speaking, as it was at the end of 2006, well before the onset of the global financial crisis. Since the most recent peak in early 2008, GDP has shrunk by about 3 percent, after adjusting for inflation.
Clearly, the United Kingdom's problems are not all the fault of its current government, which took office in May 2010. After a promising start in economic policy — independence for the Bank of England and "golden rule" budgeting, which eliminates deficits over the economic cycle — the governments of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown lost their fiscal discipline and went along too easily as their American counterparts embraced financial deregulation instead of addressing systemic risk. Mervyn King, the governor of the Bank of England since 2003, and the Financial Services Authority, the industry's independent regulator, must also share the blame for the UK's travails.
Yet in the past two and a half years, the current government of Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, led by David Cameron as prime minister and George Osborne as chancellor, has chosen to inflict unnecessary economic pain on its people. The economy was on the cusp of its fifth straight quarter of growth when the government took office, but total employment had fallen for 7 of the past 10 quarters. The new government decided that the time was ripe for massive cuts to public services and employment. Over the next three years, 628,000 government jobs — about 10 percent of the entire public sector — would disappear.
As followers of the "fiscal cliff" debate in the United States surely know, a huge cut to government spending at a fragile moment in an economic recovery can risk sending a country back into recession. And indeed, this is what occurred in the UK: three straight quarters of economic shrinkage starting in 2011 and anemic growth thereafter.
How did this happen? Even in 2005, long before their alliance with the Liberal Democrats, Osborne and his cohorts in the Conservative Party were calling government spending unsustainable. As many right-leaning parties had done before them, they called for a combination of tax cuts and spending cuts that would, in theory, reduce the government's deficits.
At the time, the Lib Dems called the Tories' plans "flaky and unrealistic." In retrospect, the rhetoric on both sides was somewhat overblown. The UK's overall debt in the public sector did climb over the next couple of years despite the growth of the UK economy – apparently the result of a political choice to abandon the "golden rule." But the change in debt was only slight, to 36.4 percent of GDP in the 2007-08 fiscal year from 35.1 percent two years earlier.
By the time Cameron took over in May 2010, the situation was very different. After two years of crisis, the country's debt had shot up to 53.1 percent of GDP because of lower tax revenues, greater demand for public services, and some costly bank bailouts. The first two of these factors were to be expected in an economic downturn; the government used its ability to protect people, to the extent possible, from the full pain of recession. The third was unusual, but unlikely to recur anytime soon.
Nevertheless, the new government remained committed to the plans it had set down five years earlier, in a completely different economic situation. Rather than thinking twice about making deep cuts to the public sector while unemployment was still high, Cameron and Osborne doubled down. They had already decided that 35 percent of GDP was too high for the UK's national debt, even though only Canada had a lower number among the G-7 economies in 2005. Naturally, debt over 50 percent of GDP made them even more determined to wield the axe.
Their main mistake, of course, was in timing. At some point, the UK would have to cut spending and reduce its debt. But 2010 was not the right time. The recovery was young and still precarious, and the increase in debt had not resulted in higher borrowing costs for the government. On the contrary, rates were lower than what they had been in 2005.
So why did this happen? Perhaps, for a start, because the leaders of the governing coalition had little training in economics. Cameron's tutor in Oxford's Philosophy, Politics, and Economics program was Vernon Bogdanor, an expert on British history, constitutional issues, and political systems. Osborne may have had even less exposure to the fundamentals of economic policy; his degree is in Modern History, which sounds quite recent but ends at Oxford somewhere around 1914.
In retrospect, it seems likely that the Conservative Party's current leaders chose their economics via their politics. Their time at Oxford spanned the late 1980s and early 1990s, when Thatcherism and its laissez-faire doctrines were in full force. Embracing the party meant believing in small government and a diminished role for the state in the economy as a whole, with little consideration for the economic circumstances of the moment.
Starting in 2005, Osborne wrote repeatedly of the need to cut taxes and spending in order to compete with other advanced economies. Yet he and Cameron allowed these long-term goals to drive what should have been a short-term economic policy designed to mitigate the UK's recession. Today, most economists accept the importance of fiscal policy as a short-term stabilizer in the economic cycle, and few would recommend the sort of fiscal austerity that Cameron and Osborne inflicted on the British people in the middle of a severe downturn. In essence, they were trying to treat a gunshot wound with diet and exercise. The patient is still waiting for intensive care.

One more unrelated question.
Can I leave my Vixia Camcorder on the charger even if its fully charged? The battery life is not the greatest so I would like to make sure its ready at a moments notice.. And if you had to guess, how long do you think a full charge would last with the camcorder turned off? how long it holds its unused life.. If anyone has those answers, it would help me a great deal. Thank you |

Marry young. In your twenties. Then grow up, dammit. Just like Michael Pollan's rules for omnivore eating are so simple (Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.), my rules of how to have a lasting military marriage are just as straightforward.
Consider me ready to roll for our 25th wedding anniversary this June. Instead of repeating my grandma's rule for a happy marriage (Never go to bed angry), or my grandpa's rule for marital bliss (Stay up and fight), I am crossing all military cultural boundaries and going for Marry young. In your twenties. Then grow up, dammit.
That should make the entire chaplain corps sit up and howl. Because working with couples who married too young is one of the things those poor guys gotta do all the time. Admit it. We military folks do marry awfully young. According to the research, male military members are much more likely to have married at a younger age than the civilian population. More than half of us are married by age 25.
Related article: Can You Stop an 18-Year-Old From Getting Married?
Yet early age at first marriage is one of the strongest predictors of divorce in the civilian world. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 48 percent of couples who marry before 18 are likely to divorce within 10 years. Only 24 percent of those who marry after age 25 will divorce within 10 years. That doesn't mean half those teen marriages last forever. That means only half of them even make it to the tenth anniversary.
So it is not surprising that young age at first marriage has been found to predict a higher rate of divorce in the military population too, especially among young enlisted. Considering how many stressors a young military marriage must face, that fact alone ought to be enough to convince us that everybody in the military ought to be single until, say, age 25. Or 30!
Which should make the entire active-duty population sit up and howl. One of the greatest predictors of life satisfaction is a deep relationship with one other person.Why should military service condemn people to a life alone?
Marry young. That's why my rules work so well. I'm all for military folks marrying pretty young. In the all-volunteer force, early marriage is so common that it is the norm. There are significant social supports for marriage as well as financial benefits that come with marriage. So run with it.
As long as you are in your twenties. In the civilian population, 74 percent of all women have been married by age 30. So my number isn't too far off as averages go. But my real thinking is that my line of work I hear from plenty of long-married military couples who married before age 25, but I rarely hear of a teen marriage that worked out for the best.
Then grow up. It ain't no sin to be young and hopeful when you get married. It is fairly common among young military couples that they think they will not deploy very much or very often. It is common to think the paycheck of an E-3 is a lot of money. It is always a surprise to realize that your one true love can be so annoying.
That is when military couples really come in to their own. When young couples start to experience the reality of military life, they have a choice. They can rip into each other or they can grow up and figure out what kind of strategies and sacrifices and strengths they need to develop. That growing-up-together attitude is common among lasting military couples. And when I see it. I am so grateful that after 25 years, Brad and I can count ourselves among that married bunch.

The Accidental Time Machine | ||||||||
Joe Haldeman | ||||||||
Ace, 272 pages | ||||||||
A review by Michael M Jones
That's the question Matt Fuller has to answer when he accidentally invents a time machine while working as a grad student at
MIT. At first it's a curiosity. Then a breakthrough. And then, as he experiments, it becomes inviolably intertwined with his life,
as he's blamed for an accidental death which occurs during testing. At that point, he has no choice but to leap forward, into a
strange new future. And, just like with H.G. Wells's protagonist in the original Time Machine, Matt Fuller is repeatedly
exposed to the strange ways in which the future might unfold.
A time where Matt is a hero, but everyone he has known or cared for are much older, and society is different, yet still eerily
familiar. But when things get uncomfortable, Matt realizes that his time machine is also the ultimate escape, a way to leave
behind his problems.
A society ruled by religion, a strange blend of high and low technology, where Matt might fit in if he can just learn to adapt. But
this society has its own problems, and Matt has no intention of being struck in it forever. What lies ahead, though? It's here,
however, that he picks up a traveling companion, an intelligent young lady whose ways are very different from what he's used to.
A utopian world where bartering is an art form, and Artificial Intelligences are commonplace. But is there any place for Matt and
his companion, Martha, here? All they have to do is push a button, and find out...
Ultimately, Matt and Martha do reach their ultimate destination, only to discover that it's not what they were expecting. In
fact, it's not what anyone was expecting. History, it seems, repeats itself.
The Accidental Time Machine is a fascinating extrapolation of the future in the way only Joe Haldeman, who has explored this
concept before in The Forever War, can do. It's a relatively swift read, and I found it hard to put down once I'd started,
eager to find out what mess our hero would get into next. Haldeman's look at these societies of the centuries to come is
intriguing, and even plausible, although I'm honestly sorry he didn't spend longer in some of them. As soon as we got
comfortable, he was off again to the next one. I'd have enjoyed seeing Matt stay longer in the future theocracy (where
Jesus literally rules) and the future barterocracy (for lack of a better word) as they both held a lot of promise. The
deus ex machina which comes into play near the end didn't light my fires either; it reminds me a little too much of the
god-like figure which dominated the end of Forever Free (his sequel to The Forever War). I don't know what
exactly I was expecting; after all, we knew the trip was one-way and if Matt was ever to return to the past (something
that was quite broadly suggested to have happened) he had to encounter something capable of reversing the process. I
guess it all seemed to end rather abruptly where that point was concerned. This book could have been longer by several
hundred pages and I would have been happy.
In general, I really enjoyed The Accidental Time Machine. Haldeman has some great ideas, and a fairly good follow
through on some of them, but he failed to utilize their full potential. This was a good book, but I know he's capable of
more. After all, The Forever War remains one of my very favorites for a reason. I'll recommend this book, but not
as enthusiastically as I'd originally hoped. Here's hoping his next offering lives up to our high expectations.
Michael M Jones enjoys an addiction to books, for which he's glad there is no cure. He lives with his very patient wife (who doesn't complain about books taking over the house... much), eight cats, and a large plaster penguin that once tasted blood and enjoyed it. A prophecy states that when Michael finishes reading everything on his list, he'll finally die. He aims to be immortal. |

Vanaja, A and Jyothsna, - and Padmavathi, T and David, T (2011) Effect of Fibre Weight Fraction on the Electrical conductivity of Continuous fibre Reinforced Conductive Composites. Project Report. National Aerospace Laboratories, Bangalore.
Full text available as:PDF - Published Version Download (364Kb) |
SIP-FRP-01 project aims at the development of conductive polymer composites for Electromagnetic Interference shielding (EMI) applications. Highly conductive materials are best suited for electromagnetic shielding. Metals are the conventional materials used for electromagnetic shielding. But their applications are limited due to their high densitives. Polymers with light weight are generally insulators in nature. They can be made conductive by dispersing either the particulate conductive filters or by reinforcing with continuous conductive fibres. Particulate polymer composites are not suited for load bearing structural applications due to their limited mechanical strength. In recent times carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites are gaining importance in air-craft structural applications due to their low density, good processability, and high specific strength. Further, carbon fibers being conductive in nature, impart electrical conductivity to these composites.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla.—Early Saturday morning I called for my uncle, Mr. David Gray, soon after 9:00 a.m. and we drove to Hyde Park. At one o'clock we lunched with members of the Hyde Park Historical Association and Mr. Snell of the Park Service. Mr. Snell, who has been in charge of the memorial home and grounds since Mr. Palmer was promoted to the regional office, gave an interesting talk. In the evening Mr. Gray and I dined with Mr. and Mrs. Henry Morgenthau Jr., all in all Saturday was a very gay day in the country for us.
On Sunday Mr. Peter Casson, assistant to the High Commissioner for Refugees, came to Hyde Park to visit the memorial library and lunch with me. With him was Mr. Langdon Post who has just moved back to New York from California. A few girls from Vassar also joined us at lunch, and I always enjoy seeing these young people and hearing what their interests and problems are as they begin a new year in college.
Sunday night I left from Idlewild Airport and came down to Miami Beach where we are holding a two-day meeting for the American Association for the United Nations. Our local organization is growing in strength and we are glad to have this opportunity to be brought up to date with their activities.
I received a letter the other day which I think is of some interest so I am putting it into my column though I will withhold the name of the writer. I shall say only that he is a Spanish student at a university in Washington, D.C. His letter follows:
"I am a Spanish student and am in my third year. I like the United States very much and I read your column regularly in the Washington Daily News. You discuss many of the questions which interest the average citizen.
"Not long ago I wrote a somewhat facetious letter to a Washington newspaper about my experiences with your cocktails. Actually, the problem involved in the difference in drinking habits between the United States and many other countries is a big one for many foreign students. Quite a few of these students come from wine-drinking countries like Spain, and the shift from drinks like Sherry and Vermouth before mealtime to Martinis, Manhattans, etc., is sometimes a little startling in its effects. The party consumption of hard liquor also is demoralizing to many of the foreigners, whose training has not equipped them to handle gin and Bourbon.
"I have made some inquiries, but apparently the indoctrination courses for foreign students do not include education about liquor. With the school season at hand, perhaps a word or two in your column may do a lot of good."
The word or two I would like to say is, if you come from a wine-drinking country, try to stick to your wine and do not get into our bad cocktail-drinking habit. If for some reason you must take a cocktail, take one and one only. Don't be ashamed of being abstemious.
In the long run the man who knows what he is saying and doing at all times and has full control of himself and his emotions is in a much better position than anyone who allows liquor to color his thoughts or his actions.

21 year old Australian actress Indiana Evans has revealed how looking younger than you actually are can have its drawbacks. Indiana also admitted that she did not think she would get the role as Tatum Novak, in the Australian legal drama Crownies, due to this reason.
Evans explained, "She's 22, which is similar to my age, but I look young. When I auditioned I didn't think I would get it for that reason, so it is a bit tough, but we work hard with the makeup and structured suits to try and age me up a bit." She then revealed how being the youngest on set affects her.
Indiana added, "I get along with everyone and I don't feel it too much. I am the youngest but I've been working for quite a bit so I don't feel too out of my depth." Indiana Evans is just one of a number of Australian stars who are making a big impact in the world of acting.

In the Matter of PETER F. COMAS |
: : : : : : : : : : : : |
Peter F. Comas has petitioned to vacate a January 11, 1999 Commission consent order (the "Order"), which bars him from association with any broker, dealer, municipal securities dealer, investment company, or investment adviser, with the right to reapply after eighteen months.1 Comas seeks to vacate the portion of the Order collaterally barring him from association with any investment company or investment adviser.3
The Order arose out of an administrative proceeding simultaneously instituted and settled on January 11, 1999 against PaineWebber Incorporated and Comas, a former associated person of PaineWebber.3 In the Order, we found, on the basis of his consent, that Comas had aided and abetted and caused fourteen instances of fraudulent violations by PaineWebber of the broker-dealer antifraud prohibitions of Section 15(c)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 19344 and Exchange Act Rule 15c1-2.5 We also found that Comas aided and abetted and caused eight instances of violations by PaineWebber of the fictitious quotation prohibitions of Exchange Act Section 15(c)(2)6 and Exchange Act Rule 15c2-7.7 In addition to the collateral bar, we ordered Comas to cease and desist from committing or causing future violations of the antifraud provisions and to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $210,000.
We have stated that in reviewing requests to lift or modify administrative bar orders, we will determine whether "under all the facts and circumstances presented, it is consistent with the public interest and investor protection to permit the petitioner to function in the industry without the safeguards provided by the bar."8 Our long-standing approach to Commission administrative bars has been that they will "remain in place in the usual case and be removed only in compelling circumstances."9 Preservation of the status quo "ensures that the Commission, in furtherance of the public interest and investor protection, retains its continuing control over such barred individuals' activities."10 Further, we have stated that we would act "in response to those situations in which, under all the facts and circumstances, the equitable need for relief, consistent with the public interest and investor protection, warrants vacating or modifying a Commission bar order."11
Therefore, we have determined that it is appropriate to modify the bar against Comas by vacating the portion of the Order that prohibits Comas from associating with investment advisers and investment companies.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the petition of Peter F. Comas to vacate the Order entered against him on January 11, 1999, as it applies to the bar from association with any investment adviser or investment company, be, and it hereby is, granted.
By the Commission.

Catching the seven o'clock train from Bristol is never easy, but we made it up in time for Helen's opening. Great to hear her pay tribute to Patrick, and her thoughts for the future - stressing the need for the Soil Association to play a part in the 'big society' by being much more open to working with others and setting old differences apart - 'we should stop lobbing stones from the hills'. Good stuff, and it's great to be here. More to follow on Caroline Spelman and following panel debate. . .
Tim is editor of the Soil Association's Living Earth magazine, and has written on food, health and consumer issues for the last ten years. When not at work Tim is normally being run ragged by his two young sons. In 2009 Tim started trying to grow vegetables, and last year he took on an allotment. Two years later he is still trying to grow vegetables, and is very hopeful that one day soon he will have some success.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (118 votes).
In short: Smashing course and super marshalsIn full: This is a low-key classic. (Lower key than I'd expected, in fact - it starts in a car park with a 'ready steady go', and there probably weren't more than 200 runners.) A smashing course (doubtless even better on a clear day), hard but not sadistic, with fabulous marshals who seemed oblivious to the horizontal rain. No signposting problems, and excellent cake at the end.Date of review: October 13, 2013

Hawaiian officials admit withholding Obama's original November 1, 2008 at 11:30am
Now it's pretty apparent why Barack Obama made his sudden, last minute visit to Honolulu. It wasn't Granny's health problems that interested him but Hawaii's Health Department.
The strategy may have backfired. A statement by Hawaiian officials Friday that they have seen but won't release an "original" birth certificate that has never been released raises more questions than it answers. It undercuts the indignant claims of Obama spokesmen and supporters that the "birth certificate" has been published for months, and the ridicule and claims of "smear" that the Obama camp has made against anyone claiming otherwise.
Image: the "certification of live birth" claimed by Obama campaign as his "birth certificate"
According to an AP report, Hawaii Health Department Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said Friday that she and the registrar of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, have personally verified that the health department holds Obama's original birth certificate.
But they won't say one word about what's on it.
Conspicuously, Hawaiian officials refuse to confirm that the information on the "original" certificate conforms to what has appeared on the "Certification of Live Birth" produced in 2007 that has so far been passed off as original by the Obama "Fight the Smears" site (here) and the Annenberg-backed site FactCheck.org (here). The latter dedicated a photoshoot to examining in pornographic detail a computer-generated facsimile that may bear no relation to the original document that the State of Hawaii now admits holding.
Can anyone smell "red herring"?
All of the obfuscation, which has been going on for more than four months, begs the question that the Obama campaign and its media supporters have steadfastly refused to answer: why won't the original birth certificate be released?
Why can't the Obama campaign do as the McCain campaign did, and release the original, typewritten document that the State of Hawaii, finally and in the last days before the election, admits exists in its "vaults"? What could be so damaging or contradictory that Obama has felt the need to keep hidden all these years and has created elaborate cover-ups to put forward computer-abstracted certification of live certificate instead of the original birth certificate?
Fukino says that no state official, including Governor Linda Lingle, ever instructed that Obama's birth certificate be handled differently. But state officials, including Lingle's office, have consistently refused media requests for the release of the document, saying that only Obama himself, or a close family number, was authorized to have access to the "original" certificate. She says state law bars release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who does not have a tangible interest.
Apparently that does not include the American People.
And yet Obama claimed in his memoir Dreams from my Father that he had in his possession his birth certificate. Unless the document has been "lost," he could publish the original without visiting grandma in Honolulu.
Trumpeting victory in Hawaii's admission that a suppressed "original" birth certificate exists is Chicago-based journalist Andy Martin, a long time nemesis of Obama, whose trip to Hawaii preceded the candidate's. (Obama arrived just as Martin left). Martin takes credit for forcing the State's hand in a press release:
Obama has falsely claimed to have placed the "original" on the Internet. Factcheck.org has falsely claimed to have seen this document and posted it on the Internet; that is not true. CNN has falsely ridiculed Martin. Hawai'i officials have now refuted Obama's false assertion.
Martin's victory in Honolulu will roil the final weekend of the presidential campaign. Internet chatter is expected to explode as the issue moves to the front page over Saturday and Sunday. Swing voters may be swayed by the exposure that Obama has brazenly been lying to the American people. "We just lobbed a grenade into the final weekend of the presidential campaign," says Andy.
"I am ecstatic. I called Obama a liar. I called Factcheck.org 'ObamaLies.org.' I said CNN was sloppy and lazy and wrong. And I was right. The State of Hawai'i has now backed me up. Whew. I knew I was right, but I feel a lot more comfortable knowing that I have started to get the machinery moving in state government. The original document is now obviously protected and safe from any tampering by Obama.
"My lawsuit started a firestorm in Hawai'i. The circuit judge has set a hearing for November 18th (a report in the Honolulu Advertiser for November 1st for an earlier hearing date of November 7th is inaccurate; that date was cancelled).
"CNN also has egg on its face, because, once again, Hawai'i backs my contention that the original document has never surfaced in public. CNN tried to demean me by contradicting my accurate claim.
"Now Obama, Factcheck.org and CNN have been exposed as liars. I said there was a 'secret,' original, typewritten birth certificate that had never been disclosed, and that document was the original COLB, not the phony 'original' that CNN placed before its viewers.Martin, who has advanced the theory that the candidate has suppressed the original certificate because it would show that his father is not in fact Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., claims that Frank Marshall Davis -- a high profile Communist and journalist that Obama II referred to in his memoirs only as "Frank" -- is in fact Obama's father.
Martin has a court date in Hawaii on his demand to release the original birth certificate in the public interest scheduled for November 18, 2008. He has scheduled a press conference for today (Saturday, November 1).

Clothing and Textile
Shopping at second hand clothing stores is a great way to save money. For the price, well-made used clothing is a bargain! Clothing you no longer need can be sold on consignment at a number of local stores or donated to any of several charities. Clothes you donate should be clean and since space is usually limited, it's best to give clothes that are in season. Items that go together, like shoes, socks or multi-piece outfits should be fastened together. Make sure to call ahead since different locations accept different types of clothing. Contact the RCBC Recycling Hotline for a list of organizations in your area.

Tribe's three homers sink reeling Red Sox
Cabrera's three-run blast follows critical mistake by Varitek
CLEVELAND -- There is a whiteboard hanging inside the office of Indians manager Manny Acta, facing him from the opposite end of the room when he sits at his desk. On the board, in pristine handwriting, is a message to all who enter.
"The road to success is not a freeway. It's a tollway and it's always under construction."
It is a fitting summation of the current state of the Indians. The ballclub has high expectations, but the path to baseball's promised land -- the World Series -- is going to require patience. Then again, if Cleveland has thoughts of shocking the world this year, the team is certainly on the right track.
On Wednesday night, the Tribe took down the highly touted Red Sox -- and took advantage of an odd play in the sixth inning -- to earn an 8-4 victory at Progressive Field. With that, Cleveland notched a series win over the preseason darlings of the American League East and collected a third win in a row.
The Indians -- with their youthful roster and a meager payroll -- kept the deep-pocketed and powerful Red Sox reeling with a trio of home runs that powered the offense. The season might only be five games young, but it is clear that Cleveland's local nine are not easily intimidated.
"You can't get caught up in how many potential Hall of Famers they have," outfielder Travis Buck said of the Red Sox. "You've got to go out there and play the game. Yeah, they've got some great players, but that's where they probably beat some younger teams like us, guys that are like, 'Oh, we've got no chance.' We don't sense that here. We've got some great leadership and we've got to go out there and compete every single day. It doesn't matter who we're facing."
The Indians are trying to take a different approach.
"It doesn't matter who we're facing," Buck said.
It has worked thus far against the Red Sox and White Sox, who are both early favorites to make the playoffs out of the AL. The Indians are 3-2 for the first time since 2007, when they won 96 games and came within five outs of reaching the World Series.
The Red Sox? They are 0-5 for the first time since 1996. In the long history of baseball, only two teams -- the '74 Pirates and the '95 Reds -- have opened a campaign with an 0-5 record and gone on to reach the postseason.
"Any time you play the Red Sox you want to give 100 percent," shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera said. "You want to win. That's one of the best teams in this league. We've played hard."
In the series opener on Tuesday, it was soft-tossing starter Josh Tomlin who gave the Red Sox fits. On Wednesday, Cleveland right-hander Mitch Talbot was effective enough for 4 1/3 innings before bowing out and allowing the Tribe's bullpen to hold down the fort the rest of the way.
Meanwhile, Shin-Soo Choo snapped an 0-for-13 skid at the plate with a two-run home run in the first inning off Red Sox right-hander Diasuke Matsuzaka. Matt LaPorta provided some late insurance with a solo blast in the eighth. It was Cabrera's three-run bomb in the sixth, though, that proved most damaging.
"I was just trying to put the ball in play," Cabrera said.
He put it in the right-field stands.
Cabrera's three-run job pushed Cleveland to a 7-2 lead, but a few moments earlier the advantage was only one. That was before Boston reliever Dennys Reyes hit two batters and walked another, setting up a bases-loaded situation that provided an unusual twist on this evening.
Center fielder Michael Brantley sliced a soft line drive at Red Sox third baseman Kevin Youkilis, who dropped the ball, setting off a chaotic turn of events. While the runners tried to assess what to do, Youkilis scrambled for the baseball, retrieved it from behind third base and stepped on the bag.
Youkilis then fired the ball to catcher Jason Varitek, who gloved it, stepped on the plate and moved out of the way as Buck ran by. It might have been a double play except for one problem. By first stepping on third, Youkilis removed the force play at home.
Buck was not tagged by Varitek, so the runner was safe and the Indians had a 4-2 lead.
Acta thought Youkilis might have dropped the ball intentionally.
"That's a very, very good play if he did do it on purpose," Acta said. "It just causes chaos. Most of the baserunners don't even know what to do."
The thought crossed Youkilis' mind, but he was caught in-between on the play.
"At first I was like, 'Try to drop it,'" Youkilis said. "Then it was a little too far out of my range, so I tried to catch it, literally. But that was in the back of my head -- to try and drop it."
Varitek did not see Youkilis step on the bag before throwing home.
"I obviously had no idea," Varitek said. "I'm still trying to learn that one right now. I should have went ahead and tagged him, also."
When he was called safe by home-plate umpire Dale Scott, Buck was as confused as anyone else.
"I was walking in and they were like, 'Good baserunning,'" Buck said with a laugh. "I didn't even know what I did. No idea. I knew I was going to be thrown out at home by about 30 feet. That's what I thought. I didn't know he touched third base.
"It was a huge play. That would've been two outs. He could've tagged me or whatnot. But they only got one and that's when it kind of blew the game open a little bit. Big hit by Cabby. That was huge. We definitely capitalized on it."
It was hardly the easiest path to success -- much like the message on the whiteboard says -- but Cleveland will take all the breaks it can get.
"I'm never satisfied," Acta said. "But it feels pretty good that we clinched .500 at home for the first homestand against two of the best teams in the American League."

The second of my Orchestral Themes series, designed to provide samples of how my custom music might sound in a film, animation, game, etc.
This one has a slightly more adventurous feel to it. It feels like it would be good for some light tension buildup... for some reason, it also makes me think of riding on a train. I find this odd, because I've never been on a train (LRTs don't count. I'm talking real trains, here), but hey.
If you're a developer, producer, etc. and you like these samples, feel free to ask me if I'd be willing to do some custom music for your project.
If you're just a listener, then all I can say is this:

Edison Glass Cloche Table Lamp
Love it
This product is adorable. I highly recommend it. Buy it before it sells out again!
December 13, 2014
Perfect nightstand lamp
I put this in my son's nursery and it's absolutely perfect! Not too bright and stimulating for nighttime feedings but has lots of style and interest.
October 22, 2014
This is a fun, reminiscent piece!
I absolutely love this piece - simple, refined, and aglow. Very well-made, also. Have added it to a book case I am filling very intentionally.

Absolutely not! Registering your family is simply a way of indicating you would like more information. When your child is eligible for one of our projects, we will contact you and explain all the details. You can decide at that point whether you would like to participate or not.
We typically only have a couple projects running at a time. Although it will depend on the age of your children, most families would only be contacted once or twice a year.
No problem. Contact us at any time and we will immediately remove you and your family's information from our system.

Hong Kong International Film Festival strives to:
- foster film culture with a program that recognizes the achievements of the past and looks forward to future.
- provide an opportunity for Hong Kong residents to appreciate films of good artistic merit from all over the world.
- promote and highlight the achievements of the cinematic scene in Hong Kong as well as deepen the appreciation of Hong Kong's cinema history.
The Hong Kong International Film Festival Society is a non-profit, non-government organization which develops, promotes and encourages creativity in the art and culture of film through the presentation of the annual Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF). Apart from organizing the flagship event HKIFF each year, the Society is also committed to organize regular programmes and other film culture activities throughout the year, in order to promote the art and creative business of cinema, with an international dimension and outlook.
The Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) is one of Asia's most reputable platforms for filmmakers, film professionals and filmgoers from all over the world to launch new work and experience outstanding films. As a competitive event, the HKIFF serves as a platform for international film exchange, to promote better understanding between global cultures, and to discover new talents from around the world.
The Hong Kong International Film Festival programme is comprised of features, documentaries, shorts and animations organized into the following sections:
The Young Cinema Competition is set up to encourage young filmmakers to explore the potentials of the cinema of our times.
The Hong Kong International Film Festival considers documentaries addressing social issues with aesthetical significance as an essential component of any meaningful film festival. The Documentary Competition is a salute to filmmakers around the world for their devotion to the documentary form and its languages.
The Hong Kong International Film Festival Short Film Competition supports the production and re-invention of the short film, a form with its own formal, aesthetic and expressive qualities distinct from those of the feature. It is also a platform for international and local short film directors to exchange visions and ideas.
30-40 new works including special programmes and tributes
15-20 new independent and avant-garde works
8-12 new documentaries
Submit your film in the general entry categories above for consideration for these programmes.

Companies: X-Cast Entertainment, American Xcess, X-Cast Entertainment,American Xcess
Cun Tre, D Wise, Pebbles, Felicia Young, Lady Temptation, Ms Paris, Others, Sylvio Mata
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Bring 'Um Black does just that, bringing an ebony cast and all it's hip-talking, pussy-pounding fun. For this group, jawin' is foreplay, and there's lots of loose lips between the couples before face and pussy lips are filled with cocks.
Each couple is shown in extended episodes with quick camera edits. The first two hetero couples assume position after position, and there's even a girl/girl vignette featuring strap-on sans-man fun.
There's no tie-in among these average wall-to-wallers, just a bunch that brought 'um black.
Retailing: Standard fare for your all-black fans.

no engine braking in th350
quickly and informative as possible.... tranny was leaking badly but shifted perfectly pulled tranny to replace seals and gaskets found clutch / band material in pan rebuilt tranny and install B&M transpak stage 3 shift kit (with vaccum modulator still installed and connected) flushed out lines and torque converter installed tranny added type F fluid as recommended Now in drive trans seems to shift very soon from first to 2nd and possibly a bit soon to 3rd. Manually downshifting into 2nd works Manually downshifting into 1st doesn't starting off in 1st (manually) trans automatically shifts to 2nd Also in any forward gear there is no engine braking seems to go into nuetral unless to accelerate checked cable linkage checked kickdown adjustment vaccum modulator is new and so is rubber hose in drive shifts are firm but too soon especially considering shift kit so not as firm as I would expect BTW this is my first tranny rebuilb and my 3rd shift kit installation. ! was a th400 and 1 was a th375 never had any problems with either one. Any ideas??
Sponsored Links | |||
pull the v-body and revisit the instructions. I believe the problem is there.
Not the shift valves , But with the detent regulator vavle or the control valve next to it. IF the B&M kit has different springs ( Stronger) for the governor... put the original springs back in. Quote:
Dont worry how old you are... it is the mileage on your body that adds up. |
I found the problem much better now
When I installed the shift kit the trans was out of the car making some things easier and somethings harder. When I replaced the spring with the sleeve for the manual control valve there is no longer pressure on the pin that holds the valve in place. It fell out.... Replaced the pin with a piece of nail. ALL BETTER!!! I have all gears when I downshift and engine braking again also shift point for 1-2 shift is much better not to soon now. Hopefully this will help anyone else having similar problems. |
it is almost like I had seen this happen before
good to hear you are on the road again Quote:
Dont worry how old you are... it is the mileage on your body that adds up. |

Reward: The First Hero
The story of Alethrion and Amerath, the original creators of the map.
4.82 / 5.00 18,383 ViewsDISCLAIMER: At one point in this short I make a little joke about Machinima, I want to make it clear that, I have no problems with Machinima, I'm a Machinima director. I'm not the greatest animator in the world, but my opinion of SOME of the other Machinima animators is quite low, in fact because of how bad their animations are it INSPIRED me to animate, because if they can do it, anyone can.
Anyway, this is just a little animation about me making more animations. So every cartoon I make is essentially part of a series about me becoming a better animator, and potentially befriending other great animators! This was also a little tribute to every animator mentioned in the video, cause you know, I'm "fighting the best to become the best" sort of deal.
And the song at the end is "The Sunlit Earth," from Shadow of the Colossus.
EDIT: Sometimes when the video loads it might zoom in, just right click and "show all." I have no idea why it's doing this now.
thous quest shall be a long one, thou will make many friends and enemies alike.
tis the will of the internet god
great inspiration but!? a tip! is not! them you need to worry about it's me! or people like me who are on the same starting page! they are on a class of there own you and me could never reach! it for it is not! from are time or place to do so!. but you and me are in the same class and as long as you keep that in mind then I guess the greatest challenge is to refold into a new age of animators and artist alike. although I have been here since almost the beginning of it but I lay low to learn and come back with some near impossible to match but! this is my test stage! soon i will get down to business and when I do will be a force to be reckon with! mark my words as Toonyman raises to the thrown you will witness the coming of a real true Artist and the birth! of true art. so let us have a good clean war, I love the challenge.
Loved this movie. Part of it was the humor and the other was what you said about some Machinima animators. I really like how this movie embodies your goal of being a better animator and becoming one of the animating elite.

"My son makes good grades in high school, but he is messy and disorganized at home. How can I improve his life skills before he goes off to college?"
by Patricia Quinn, M.D.
Your son is not alone. Many teens go to college without acquiring life skills. Because they are bright, and have had structure and support in high school, many college-bound teens with ADHD have had a relatively smooth path. Few parents see how their efforts to manage, support, and fix problems for their teen can delay him from mastering skills he'll need in college.
Strong daily living skills -- getting up on his own in the morning, staying organized, doing laundry, making appointments, refilling prescriptions -- are crucial to a teen's success at college. In our two latest books, Ready for Take-Off: Preparing Your Teen with ADHD or LD for College and On Your Own: A College Readiness Guide for Teens with ADHD/LD, Theresa Maitland, Ph.D., and I developed a checklist to enable teens and parents to evaluate and modify their living skills to prepare for college. Here's how it works:
> Identify and agree on areas that need improvement.
> Determine the strategies or discuss the rules your teen can follow to address these challenges. Be specific.
> Observe your teen as he practices the strategies and see what works.
> Talk with your teen about how to slowly reduce your involvement and observe how your teen does. Identify the things he needs help with. Expect to repeat this step many times until your teen has mastered a particular skill.
> Have your teen practice the skill without your supervision and see how he does on his own. Keep doing this until he is confident he can do it by himself.
