Three tracks, carrying 6 cars on each side and 5 in the middle could carry 10,000 tons of coal when fully loaded. This information was provided in 1949 by the builder of the model.

So, with Game Freak claiming that Generation V will be an "inventive rebirth" of Pokemon, do you take them seriously? To what extent do you think this will be a Pokemon "Renaissance" as I like to call it? Do you think that there will be complete overhauls in certain parts of the games, that they'll only change and/or overhaul a few aspects of the series, or that they're basically bluffing & that there will be barely any changes in terms of gameplay?
Imo, I think their original claim of Gen V being a rebirth is a bit inflated (like every informercial you've ever seen.) There might be some major changes to some parts of the games, but the overall core of the series will remain unchanged. I think this generation will have more action in it since GF has been hinting at that for a while now. I think that there won't be nearly as many older Pokemon in the regional PokeDex for the new region either. But other than that, I think that's about all they'll do.
So what do you think? Will this be a true Pokemon Renaissance or a bluff?

Narrator is fine, the book left me flat.
Total disappointment is what I felt after reading this book.
I really don't understand how this book became a sensation. Fifty Shades fell flat on so many levels I really wish I could have my credits back.
"Death you take my breath away!"
Oh My God
Endless Knight stands alone. Kresley Cole played with all my emotions and I loved it.
Ms. Galvin brought the book to life. Evie and Jack were so amazing.
Love, Hate and Tears...
Highly recommend Endless Knight.
The reader and the echo in the background killed it for me! I couldn't get past the horrible echoing in the background.
"AMAZING! Poision Princess won't disappoint!"
Kresley Cole is a true storyteller. I loved that every character has mystery about them. From start to finish this book had me at the edge of my seat. The narrators did an amazing job.
This book is a classic....
finding out Pia is a unicorn!
Most definitely didn't want to put it down til I was done!
Highly recommend this book and the rest of the series!

The origin of specious quotes
14 August 2006Justin gives John Reid's recent anti-terror speech a good going-over. I have very little to add, except to question one part of the speech:
Charles Darwin wrote ?it is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change?. That is why we need to see national security in a new context and all of us ? politicians, businesses, lawyers and citizens need to evolve our thinking for the 21st century.
To me, there's something ever so slightly dodgy-looking about that claim; the language and tone used just don't seem to fit in with Darwin's style of writing, it doesn't fit with my (limited) knowledge of Darwin's own beliefs, and it's a little too similar to the whole "blessed are the changemakers" spiel that managerialists in corporate and political culture love to preach. Moreover, there is a logical fallacy contained within – species don't survive by changing, as by changing they become new species. So did Darwin actually say it?
While a quick Googling seems to agree with Reid, when it comes down to it, no-one can find where the quote came from. WikiQuote lists it as "attributed" but with no citation; the contributors to this discussion thread can't find it either. So, to Project Gutenberg and a delve in the section labelled "Authors – D". And I can't find any trace of it there, not in Origin of Species, nor The Descent of Man or The Voyage of the Beagle. Instead, what Darwin has to say on strength seems to be the opposite of how Reid quotes him. From Origin of Species:
Finally, it may not be a logical deduction, but to my imagination it is far more satisfactory to look at such instincts as the young cuckoo ejecting its foster-brothers, ants making slaves, the larvae of ichneumonidae feeding within the live bodies of caterpillars, not as specially endowed or created instincts, but as small consequences of one general law leading to the advancement of all organic beings–namely, multiply, vary, let the strongest live and the weakest die.
While in The Descent of Man:
Just as man can improve the breeds of his game-cocks by the selection of those birds which are victorious in the cockpit, so it appears that the strongest and most vigorous males, or those provided with the best weapons, have prevailed under nature, and have led to the improvement of the natural breed or species.
I'm fairly sure that Darwin made no such remarks on responsiveness to change (if he has and you can prove it by providing a primary source, then a shiny new ten pound note is yours – that's how sure I am). It's quite nicely ironic really; Reid recites a fake Darwin quote in an attempt to make his blueprint for society buzzword-friendly, and much more palatable and 21st century. But in reality, Darwin's reflections on brute force winning supreme every time are much closer to Reid's idea of success, and his vision of the future; one where state power is allowed to run with as few checks as possible, while privacy, freedoms and fairness are willingly and continually traded in exchange for a false sense of security.
3 Responses
The quote certainly sounds more "Who Moved My Cheese" than "The Voyage Of The Beagle".
It's more Machiavelli than Darwin.
"[Men] are successful if their methods match the circumstances and unsuccessful if they do not."
But I guess that wouldn't go down so well for a home secretary, however similar to the chaps Niccolo was talking about he may be.
After a long search I'm perpared to agree, and I'd also be inclined to say that a lot of what is attributed to Darwin actually comes from his contemporaries (Lamarck, Spencer, et al).
The cloest I managed to mind (via an old metafilter thread) was a quote by Kropotkin in 1902:
Those who survive a famine, or a severe epidemic of cholera, or small-pox, or diphtheria, such as we see them in uncivilized countries, are neither the strongest, nor the healthiest, nor the most intelligent … All that natural selection can do in times of calamities is to spare the individuals endowed with the greatest endurance for privations of all kinds.

Star Trek: The Next Generation Toys Announced
Posted on May 22, 2013 AT 04:29pm
Diamond Select Toys has announced they're releasing two toys based on Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as one from Star Trek VI.
First up is a 7-inch action figure of Captain Jean-Luc Picard that has him on a Borg ship, standing over the body of a dead Borg, while aiming a phaser at what we can only assume is another Borg.
Next, they've also got a replica of the Enterprise-E, which is the ship Picard commanded in the 1996 movie Star Trek: First Contact. As with all of their ship replicas, this one will light up and has sound effects that include Mssr. Picard barking orders. It will be available this summer.
Finally, this summer will also see a replica of the Excelsior as it appeared in the 1991 movie Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. It also lights up, and will include quotes from its captain, Hikaru Sulu, which have been recorded by actor George Takei (though we doubt one of them will be, "Oh my," unfortunately).

Building Your Future
Internships are an important element of today's undergraduate education. A well-structured internship program can assist you with figuring out the difference between a job and a career. An intense, time-on-task internship will produce a meaningful experience with which you can test your knowledge in your field of interest. Students who are given substantive work assignments will stretch their knowledge and skills to complete assignments.
When you intern, you test your interests, develop new strengths, and learn about opportunities and career paths you might not otherwise discover.
Students can earn from 3-15 upper division credit hours for an approved internship. Many government internship programs are paid positions ranging between $1,000-$5,000 per semester.
There has never been a better time to explore the many opportunities that exist in the public sector. Make an internship part of building your future!
Getting Started
Eligibility: All student interns must have junior status and a 2.5 GPA. Transfer students also need to have completed two semesters of full-time study at SUNY Oswego.
Consultation: Working with your academic advisor and the Political Science Internship Coordinator is essential. You must discuss how an internship will affect your academic program and determine whether the internship will be taken for departmental credit (POL) or General Studies (GST) credit.
Application Process: Prior to starting their internship, every student must complete two application forms: one for the Office of Experience-Based Education (EBE) and one for the specific program to which they are applying. Applications can be obtained from the EBE Office, in 145 Marano Center, or from Dr. Stephen Rosow, Political Science Internship Coordinator, in 435B Mahar Hall.
Placement and Credit
Internship Placement: The Dept. of Political Science places students with several reputable internship programs located in Albany, NYC, and Washington D.C. You may also find your own position via online internship databases, or use the Experience Based Education Office as a campus-based resource center to secure a position. In all cases, we work closely to help you find a high quality, academically challenging internship that matches your special interests and specific career goals.
Learning Agreement: Once your internship has been secured, you must meet with the Political Science Internship Coordinator (Dr. Rosow) to discuss your learning objectives, review your specific responsibilities, and design your academic assignments. This step in the internship process helps to ensure you receive a credit-worthy experience.

This remarkable photograph shows some of the damage caused by the force of the blast and the resulting tidal wave from the Halifax Explosion.
Walter Wonham, training as a Royal Canadian Navy wireless (radio) operator, took this photograph from inside HMCS Niobe. The explosion and resulting tidal wave slammed Niobe into the pier and shattered the gangway leading up to the ship (centre right and left). The explosion also smashed the wireless training school, killing one of Wonham's fellow students and badly injuring four others.

To legions of illicit gourmets, it is the ultimate guilty pleasure: a delicacy so tempting and yet so barbarous it is traditionally consumed with one's head cloaked in a napkin. But to France's animal rights activists, the traditional practice of eating ortolan, an endangered songbird, is cruel and anachronistic. Now, enraged by the failure – or refusal – of successive governments to crack down on poachers, campaigners are taking matters into their own hands. In a co-ordinated protest, members of the League for the Protection of Birds (LPO) destroyed hundreds of traps and set free the birds inside. The time had come, they said, to prioritise biodiversity over gastronomy."For 10 years now, not only has the state turned a blind eye [to the poachers] but it has been complicit," said Allain Bougrain-Dubourg, president of the LPO. "It is time to make the state face up to its responsibilities."The hunting and selling of ortolans, which have suffered a Europe-wide decline of 40-50% in the last 40 years, has been illegal in France since 1999.--full story: http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/aug/31/france-activists-poaching-endangered-ortolan

Seminar: | Working Seminar: Dynamics and its Working Tools |
Speaker: | Federico Rodriguez Hertz, Penn State |
Abstract: | |
We shall give an exposition of Ledrappier's paper "Positivity of the exponent for stationary sequences of matrices." In this paper appears in a seminal form some rigidity phenomena that were exploited later by several authors (this consequences will be the subject of forthcoming lectures). In particular it is studied the consequences of having 0 exponents for matrix cocycles over general measurable systems and applications to particular examples. |

Swan criticises Opposition over rates hike
Treasurer Wayne Swan has attacked the Opposition over its response to ANZ raising interest rates by 0.06%, saying it is too slow to attack the bank for raising rates outside any RBA decision.
"What, do you want them to have a loss before they can put up their margins?" Opposition finance spokesman Andrew Robb told ABC this morning.
"You know they're not stupid, and I don't think they would willy-nilly put up their margin like this if they weren't suffering a problem with their margins." Swan told AAP Robb is "out there going into bat for a huge bank over struggling families".
"So it's no wonder he has no idea of what rate rises mean for families and small businesses."
Toyota lays off 350 workers
Toyota has begun the process of laying off 350 workers at its Melbourne plant, although the company has drawn criticism due to hiring security guards to oversee workers leaving the premises.
Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU) official Charlie Marmara told AAP the hiring of security was heavy-handed.
"For me personally (it's) very difficult, for the people themselves very upsetting, a lot of people are uncertain now what the future holds for them," he said outside the plant.
Toyota spokesperson Beck Angel said the security was actually hired at the union's request.
"We're doing one-on-one meetings with everyone. We just don't have the facilities at the plant to facilitate them," Angel told AAP.

President Obama magically calms crying baby. Video:
Human Interaction of the Day.
I've watched this three times, now. There's something funny and delightful about seeing a man's effect on a real-life baby—now if only dealing with complainers on the left and right were so "easy."
From Gawker: Obama is a Baby Whisperer.
Loved it? Leave a tip!

i love the look michelle gave him… priceless!
Hollie Hirst He's got the 'momma bounce' down… that's really sweet! ThanksWendy Goldner He's got the touch, that's for sure.
Yep, he's got the baby jiggle just right. Michelle was standing too still!
I always think that babies can sense intention, anxiety & attitude. I know that mine are super squirmy and uncomfortable when I have a lot on my mind or am distracted. They are like emotional barometers. So, I'm impressed with the President's ability to calm an agitated child… and he does have a good mama bounce going even after all those years.
Wow, so should every woman with a child be given a medal? Not impressed
aww…could someone hold jay?

Yet even as it faltered, Crystal Care continued receiving payments from the state. The company has been paid more than $25 million over the last decade, most of it through federal-state Medicaid grants for the poor and infirm.
The episode was symptomatic of problems that have emerged during a decade of explosive growth in the industry. In Minnesota, public spending on personal care assistants in clients' homes has soared from $117 million in 2003 to $618 million last year, and more than 36,000 Minnesotans now receive such care. Nationally, Medicaid payments to home health care companies nearly tripled in the past decade, eclipsing $12 billion in 2011.
In the midst of that growth, billing irregularities and fraud have become chronic. Nationwide, 20 percent of all Medicaid claims submitted by personal care service providers were found to be faulty — either because providers had no record that the services were actually provided or the caregivers lacked proper qualifications, according to a 2010 survey by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). In a single year, wrongful payments totaled more than $700 million, the department found.
Across the country, state regulators who investigate Medicaid fraud have more than 1,000 open cases involving personal care assistance services — more than any other health service covered by Medicaid, according to a 2012 report by the HHS Office of the Inspector General.
Just last week, Michigan's auditor general reported that the state improperly paid $160 million in a 29-month period for home care services under a state Medicaid program. The auditor blamed shoddy paperwork and poor oversight and noted that 3,786 caregivers in Michigan had felony criminal records, including convictions for homicide and sexual assault.
In 2010, Ometta Vent Care Services of Plymouth quietly shut its doors after state investigators uncovered extensive fraud, including evidence that the firm had billed the state for thousands of hours of nursing services that were never provided. Sick patients, including people on ventilators who required 24-hour care, also complained of inadequate care.
In Minnesota, personal care assistance services account for less than 10 percent of total Medicaid spending, but alleged personal care fraud accounts for 37 percent of state fraud investigators' time, according to Minnesota's Department of Human Services. Personal care fraud also accounts for more than half of the state attorney general's Medicaid investigations.
"The fraud is a reflection of the extreme lack of state attention and resources devoted to this exploding industry," said Hollis Turnham, the Midwest director of the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute, a health care advocacy group.
'Sitting here, rotting'
Luverne Nelson is gasping for breath, his face a mixture of pain and fatigue as he struggles to take off his pants and shirt.
Nelson, 84, suffers from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The mere act of undressing for a shower can cause him to collapse on his bed from exhaustion.
"Some days, I get to huffing and puffing so bad you can hear me across the street," he said one day recently.
And that's on good days, when Nelson has a personal care assistant to help him.
For two months last year, Nelson had no such help. One day in September, Nelson's longtime personal care assistant at Crystal Care failed to show up at his apartment in North Branch.
Nelson, a Korean War veteran who calls himself "fiercely independent," thought he could fend well enough on his own until another aide arrived.
Days slipped by without a caregiver showing up. Then weeks. Then months. Nelson stopped taking a shower. He stopped washing his clothes and changing his bedsheets. And he frequently forgot to take the small pink pills, kept in a plastic tray above his kitchen sink, that help prevent the buildup of fluid in his lungs.
Like other former patients, Nelson said he was afraid to call public officials for help, fearing they might discover his frail state and send him to a nursing home. His condition worsened to the point where he could barely bend down and pull on his socks without wheezing uncontrollably.
"I was just sitting here, rotting," he said.

In a new study, it was found that regardless of diet, participants with the highest dairy calcium intake, equal to 12 oz. of milk or other dairy products (580 mg of dairy calcium), lost about 12 pounds (6 kg.) at the end of the two years.
In comparison, those with the lowest dairy calcium intake averaging about 150 mg dairy calcium, or about half of a glass, only lost seven pounds on average.
The study, conducted by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) researchers, was published in the current issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
The study reveals that dieters who consumed milk or milk products lost more weight on average than those who consumed little to no milk products, according to a BGU press release.
Beyond calcium, the researchers also found that blood levels of vitamin D independently affected weight loss success. Vitamin D levels increased among those who lost more weight. The dietary intervention study also confirmed other research that overweight participants have lower blood levels of vitamin D.
More than 300 overweight men and women, aged 40 to 65, participated in the study evaluating low fat, Mediterranean or low-carb diets for two years. Dr. Danit Shahar led the study. According to Dr. Shahar, "It was known that over-weight people had lower levels of serum vitamin D but this is the first study that actually shows that serum Vitamin D increased among people who lost weight.
This result lasted throughout the two years that the study was conducted, regardless of whether they were on a low-carb, low fat or Mediterranean diet."

Stay on the left side of the arete for the entire top section, there is one two finger pocket on the right side used to setup for the big move. In general, It is hard 2 finger pocket climbing with a few friction feet then a big move into a jug finish. Sandbag. |
By CritConrad From: Bend, OR May 3, 2012 |
contrived and horribly over-bolted |
By donggua From: Corvallis, Oregon Jun 19, 2013 |
feels harder than an 11a staying entirely on the left side of the arete. the mini pockets are extremely hard for feet, maybe i just need to improve my footwork, but definitely sandbag for me |
By Bryan Hall From: Bend, Oregon Jul 25, 2013 |
Tough pocket climbing that is great fun for Smith. I don't think it's overbolted or contrived. Check it out on TR after climbing Scary Llamas 5.8 to the right of it. Watch out for bees in the pockets mid/late summer... |
By Kemper Brightman From: Walla Walla, WA Aug 18, 2013 |
I'm seconding Bryan's comment about the bees. The "wasp pocket" turns this climb from questionably worth it to absolutely not worth it in my book. |
By hwendlandt Oct 22, 2014 rating: 5.11 6c+ 23 VIII- 23 E4 5c |
Every time I've seen donggua comment on something here, he says the climb is about two grades easier than it is rated; so when he says this is harder than 11a, truth. I watched three people climb this totally different, then added my own variation, staying on the right of the ar�te until the little undergoochie. Every way was harder than 11a to me, but that's pretty awesome variety for a climb! |
By Alan Zhan From: Seattle, WA Mar 31, 2015 |
If you stay on the left face and use only the slopey arete it definitely feels harder than 11a... or maybe I just suck at pockets. |

Impact of Asian carp on the Great Lakes
Hits: 2808
From: http://www.freep.com/article/20100126/NEWS06/100126010/1322/Impact-of-Asian-carp-on-the-Great-Lakes
If Asian carp establish a breeding population, they could hurt the Great Lakes by outcompeting other species, as has happened on rivers in the South, where some stretches of river are mostly Asian carp. They could alter the ecosystem by filtering out food that other fish and smaller organisms need, and they're dangerous to boaters and anglers because of their size and weight.
Recreation and fishing could be forever changed.
Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix)
• Up to 4 feet long and 40 pounds.
• Found in 12 states, including evidence of reproducing population in Louisiana and in the Mississippi River.
Bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis)
• Up to 4 feet long and 80 pounds.
• Reported in open waters by early 1980s, they are found in 18 states.
JUMPING DANGER: Silver carp will torpedo out of the water up to 10 feet in the air when agitated and can cause serious injury to boaters or anglers.
COMPETITION FOR FOOD: The carp's only food is plankton. In large numbers, they could deplete plankton that native fish depend on.
ADAPTATION: Bighead and silver carp tend to grow big and produce a large number of offspring.
Proposed solutions
BARRIER CONTROLS: Bubble curtains deter fish without impeding boat traffic. The screen is a steady stream of bubbles being generated via a submerged perforated tube through which compressed air is released. The wall of released bubbles is used to guide approaching fish into a by-wash. Bubble curtains can achieve greater efficiency when combined with other deterrent systems such as sound or light.
COMMERCIAL USE: Asian carp were introduced to the U.S. in the early '70s to control algae in catfish farms in the South. Floods washed them into the Mississippi River in the '80s. They've worked their way upriver ever since. They thrive in the Illinois River, a tributary of the Mississippi. The State of Louisiana has approved plans to market the fish to restaurants and fish stores. Asian carp will be sold as silverfin — a more appealing name.
KILL THEM WITH POISON OR ELECTRIC CURRENT: The Army Corps of Engineers is updating an electric field designed to repel invasive fish species from entering the Great Lakes. Once complete, two nonlethal dispersal fields are expected to replace the aging system.
1. Creates a 2-volts-per-inch electric field in the water, discouraging fish from swimming onward.
2. Once complete, this field will work concurrently with the first one to create a much larger grid to repel fish.
3. The original barrier emits a 1-volt-per-inch field and is to remain active until an upgrade is complete.

Love and Mr Lewisham
eBook (ePub)
Download immediately.
Love and Mr Lewisham is an 1899 novel set in the 1880s by H. G. Wells. It was among his first outside the science fiction genre. Wells took considerable pains over the manuscript and said of it that "the writing was an altogether more serious undertaking than I have ever done before." He later included it in a 1933 anthology entitled Stories of Men and Women in Love.

Product Description
In this tactical placement game, players cleverly play their tiles next to other tiles with similar characteristics. The more tiles the new tile is played adjacent to, the more scoring chips the player may steal from his opponents. Complete a row of tiles, and the whole row scores, causing players to select tiles from that row for their scoring pile. Chip and tile values are added at the end of the game, but be careful--only two colors of tiles count as positive points--collect too many colors, and the other colors count against you!

In 'M' your goal is to match colors, numbers or shapes on the tiles which you lay down to create the board. After a row reaches five or six tiles, and two neighboring tiles match in two ways (such as color AND shape, or shape AND number), each player chooses one tile from that row to pick up and make part of his/her score. The twist is that two of the colors will count for you, but all other colors will count against you.
This entertaining, lightweight game is a good start or finish to a night of gaming.
Nicely done. Pretty quick, takes 45 minutes to an hour. Tiles have symbols, colors and numbers. You play tiles that match in one of the three ways. When the rows reach 5 or 6 tiles in length, it forces players to each pick up a tile from that row. Players score chips for playing tiles, and the numerical value of the tiles they pick up. However, only two colors will count for you; the rest count against you. Recommended.
When I first saw mention of this abstract tile-laying game, it didn't appear to be something which would be of interest to me. However, the game began receiving favorable reactions from several gamers I know, so I began to grow interested. While visiting my good buddy Mark Jackson in Nashville, I had the opportunity to play (courtesy of fellow visitor and buddy, Craig Berg), and enjoyed the experience so much I immediately ordered a copy.
The game, which is designed by Martin Schlegel, is decidedly abstract, with no attempt being made to paste on a theme. There is no board per s, but one develops as players lay tiles to the table. However, tiles are also removed during the course of the game, so the board is constantly changing in both size and shape.
There are 90 tiles included--18 in each of five colors. Each of these tiles depicts either two or three characteristics: color, value or shape. The border on each tile also varies, but corresponds with the value of the tile, so all tiles of one value (either 0, 10, 20, 30 or 40) have the same border. These tiles are the central element of the game.
The game begins with five tiles set onto the table in the shape of an 'M'. I can only surmise that this is how the game acquired its name. Each player begins the game with four tiles and six wooden chips. On a turn, a player must, if possible, lay a tile onto the table adjacent to one or more previously laid tiles. However, several rules must be followed:
1) The newly laid tile must be played adjacent to at least one previously laid tile and must match at least one of the three characteristics of the tile or tiles to which it is adjacent. Thus, if the newly laid tile is placed adjacent to two tiles, it must match at least one characteristic on both of those tiles. Please note that the characteristic it matches can be different for each tile. For instance, the tile can match the value of one of the previously laid tiles, while matching the color of the other adjacent tile.
2) The developing grid of tiles (or 'board') cannot be larger than 6 X 6.
If both of these conditions are met, then the tile can be played. If a tile is successfully played adjacent to two or more tiles, the player gets to steal chips from the opponent to his right. The number of chips stolen is one less than the number of tiles adjacent to the newly played tile. So, if I place a tile which is adjacent to two other tiles, I steal one chip (2 - 1 = 1) from the player on my right. These chips are worth 10 points at the end of the game. If for some reason the player to my right is out of chips, then I steal a chip from the player to his right!
The placement of a tile may trigger a scoring round if two conditions are met:
1) The row or column to which I played the tile contains five or six tiles, without any gaps between the tiles; AND
2) The newly played tile matches two or more characteristics of an adjacent tile in the same row or column.
If these conditions are met, the player who placed the tile which triggered the scoring takes one of the tiles from that scoring row or column and places it in front of him. By taking a tile, however, the remaining tiles must still be connected to the rest of the 'board' either horizontally or vertically. In other words, no tile or tiles can be isolated.
After this player takes a tile, the player to his right must then take a tile, if possible. This procedure continues until either only one tile remains in the scoring row, or until a player cannot legally take a tile.
All tiles taken by a player during the course of the game are kept face-up in front of him, separated by color. These tiles will score at the end of the game, but with a nasty twist.
Following the placement of a tile and the resolution of any resulting scoring, the player fills his hand of tiles to four by taking a tile from the face-down draw pile. Play continues in this fashion until the final tile is drawn from the draw pile, after which play concludes following the next scoring round.
At the conclusion of the game, players score the tiles and chips they collected during the game. Any tiles remaining in a player's hand are discarded. The scoring is reminiscent of the card game Mit List und Tucke:
1) Players must choose two colors of tiles to score. They then add the values of these tiles together.
2) Players then add the value of the other tiles together, and subtract this value from the above total.
3) Players also receive ten points for each chip they collected.
The player with the highest value is victorious.
It doesn't take long to figure out that you only want to collect tiles from two colors. Of course, that would be the ideal world. In reality, it is quite possible to trigger scoring rounds which will have the end result of forcing your opponents to take tiles which they do not want. As mentioned, this is very similar to the deliciously evil Mit List und Tucke, which uses the same scoring mechanism.
The temptation in the game is to immediately plop down a tile that will allow you to steal a chip or chips from your neighbor, or to trigger a scoring round so you can grab a tile. Often, however, this is not the wisest choice. Sometimes triggering a scoring round results in greater benefits to your opponents than yourself. Further, you must constantly be vigilant in that you do not play tiles which allow your opponents to trigger beneficial scoring rounds or steal chips. Sometimes this cannot be avoided, but more often you do have several choices on each round.
I find the game to contain a good mixture of puzzle solving, hand management and deductive skills, with some nice 'slam' potential thrown into the stew. I do think, however, that most of this is not evident with just one playing. It does take a while to recognize all of the possibilities and tactics available, so it really shouldn't be judged after just one playing.
The game can be played with 2 - 6 players, but one does lose a bit of control as the number of players increases. There are more tactical decisions to be made when playing with just 2 or 3 players. With a full contingent of six players, the board has changed so much by the time your turn arrives again that advance planning is just about out of the question. Still, even with a full load of six, I enjoy playing and find the game quite fun.
To be sure, the game is not to everyones tastes. There is no hiding its abstract nature. That alone is enough to turn some folks off. However, for those who can get past this abstract skin, theres a fine game lurking underneath.

John Clements | |
Born | London, England, UK |
25 April 1910
Died | 6 April 1988 Brighton, East Sussex, England, UK |
(aged 77)
Years active | 1935–1982 |

Sir John Selby Clements, CBE (25 April 1910 – 6 April 1988) was an English actor and producer who worked in theatre, television and film.
Clements attended St Paul's School and St John's College, Cambridge University[1] then worked with Nigel Playfair and afterwards spent a few years in Ben Greet's Shakespearean Company. He made his first stage appearance in 1930. Clements founded the Intimate Theatre at Palmers Green in 1935, which is a combined repertory and try-out theatre. He appeared in almost 200 plays, and presented a number of plays in the West End as actor-manager-producer. He also started his film work in 1933. Clements was the artistic director of the Chichester Festival Theatre from 1966 to 1973.
He married the actress Kay Hammond and together they became a critical success on stage with their West End revival of Noël Coward's play Private Lives in 1945. In 1952 they both appeared in Clements' own play The Happy Marriage, an adaptation of Jean-Bernard Luc's Le Complexe de Philemon. Clements starred as Edward Moutlon Barrett in the musical Robert and Elizabeth, a successful adaptation of The Barretts of Wimpole Street. His stepson is the actor John Standing.
As a film actor John Clements played bit parts of increasing size for Alexander Korda's London Films in the 1930s. He made quite an impression opposite Robert Donat and Marlene Dietrich in Knight Without Armour as Poushkoff, an over-sensitive commissar who saves their lives during the Russian Revolution. He came to further prominence when film director Victor Saville chose him to star opposite Ralph Richardson in South Riding (1938). The two actors were reunited in the very successful The Four Feathers (1939). After this Clements' film career was somewhat intermittent although he made a series of British war films for Ealing Studios and British Aviation Pictures, such as Convoy (1940), Ships with Wings (1942), Tomorrow We Live (1943), and as Yugoslav guerrilla leader Milosh Petrovitch in Undercover (1943). He had a cameo role (as Advocate General) in Gandhi (1982).
Clements was made a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) in 1956 and knighted in 1968. He died in Brighton, East Sussex in 1988.

Kiro Gligorov
Kiro Gligorov Киро Глигоров |
1st President of Macedonia | |
In office January 27, 1991 – November 19, 1999 |
Preceded by | Vladimir Mitkov (as President of SR Macedonia) |
Succeeded by | Boris Trajkovski |
Personal details | |
Born | Štip, Kingdom of Serbia (then controlled by Kingdom of Bulgaria) |
May 3, 1917
Died | January 1, 2012 Skopje, Republic of Macedonia |
(aged 94)
Nationality | Macedonian |
Political party | Social Democratic Union of Macedonia (SDSM) |
Kiro Gligorov (Macedonian: Киро Глигоров, pronounced [ˈkirɔ ˈɡliɡɔrɔf] ( listen)), May 3, 1917 – January 1, 2012) was the first President of the Republic of Macedonia, serving from 1991 to 1999. He held various high positions in the political establishment of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, including as Secretary of State for Finance in the Federal Executive Council, a member of the Yugoslav Presidency, as well as President of the Assembly of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from May 15, 1974 to May 15, 1978.
Early life[edit]
Born in Štip, Kingdom of Serbia (then under Bulgarian control),[1] Gligorov later graduated from the University of Belgrade's Law School. After the defeat of Yugoslavia in 1941, he returned to Skopje, where Gligorov worked as a lawyer until 1943. Afterwards he participated in the National Liberation War of Macedonia as a secretary of the Initiative committee for the organization of the Antifascist Assembly of the National Liberation of Macedonia (ASNOM) and a finance commissioner in the Presidium of ASNOM.[2] He served as Finance Minister of Yugoslavia from 1962 to 1967.
After the promotion of parliamentary democracy in the country in 1990, he became the first democratically elected president of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia on January 27, 1991. On April 16, 1991, the parliament adopted the constitutional amendment for removing the "Socialist" adjective from the official name of the country, and on June 7 the same year, the new name Republic of Macedonia was officially established, hence Gligorov continued his presidency as the President of the Republic of Macedonia.[3]
He served for two terms, from January 27, 1991, to November 19, 1999. He was re-elected for his second term in office on November 19, 1994. He led his country to independence proclaimed after the referendum held on September 8, 1991, and tried to keep it out of the Yugoslav wars, a task made difficult by disputes with the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Albania, Bulgaria and Greece who all faced separate issues with the country.[citation needed]
Assassination attempt[edit]
On October 3, 1995, Gligorov was the target of a car bomb assassination attempt in Skopje. While en route from his residence to his office, the vehicle carrying Gligorov was blown up by an explosion from a parked vehicle, killing his driver and injuring several passers-by. Gligorov was seriously injured above his right eye and was immediately conveyed to the hospital.[4]
Since the incident there have been no suspects brought to book and no progress has been made in the investigation of the case. However, there have been short-lived speculations as to who could be the culprits. Shortly after bombing, the Minister of Internal Affairs Ljubomir Frčkovski publicly claimed that "a powerful multinational company from a neighbouring country" was behind the assassination attempt,[5] with the Macedonian media pointing at the Bulgarian Multigroup and the Yugoslav KOS as possible suspects.[5] During a meeting between Multigroup head Iliya Pavlov and Gligorov in Ohrid, Pavlov assured Gligorov that his organisation was not involved.[5] All investigations were futile.[5]
Gligorov was incapacitated until November 17, 1995. He was permanently blind in one eye as a result. Stojan Andov was acting president during Gligorov's recuperation.[citation needed]
The election for Gligorov's successor took place only a few days before the end of his term.
Gligorov died in the early hours of January 1, 2012, in his sleep.[6] It is known that his request was that the funeral be private with only his closest family in attendance. He was buried in Butel Municipality, Skopje.[7]
Kiro was the father of Vladimir Gligorov, a refounder of the Serbian Democratic Party.

Breastfeeding (cont.) IN THIS ARTICLE
Benefits of BreastfeedingWith rare exceptions, breast milk is the preferred feeding for infants and confers unique benefits. Breastfed babies (for at least six months) may be at reduced risk for many acute and chronic diseases, including gastrointestinal tract infection (like diarrhea), irritable bowel syndrome, respiratory tract infections (like a cold), urinary tract infections, otitis media (ear infections), and allergic reactions (like atopic dermatitis and asthma). Breastfeeding also has been shown to reduce pain in infants undergoing painful procedures. Exclusive breastfeeding has been shown to help infants recover faster from major illnesses such as pneumonia, with shorter hospital stays and decreased need of antibiotic changes than formula-fed babies. The effect of breastfeeding in protecting against infection is well established. Infants who were fully breastfed for six months or more seem to have higher mental development when compared with infants who were never breastfed. Some studies show that the effects of breastfeeding may carry over and also protect young children and adolescents from becoming overweight, having elevated cholesterol levels, and developing diabetes or prediabetes. Either exclusive breastfeeding for four months or breastfeeding with some formula supplementation for six months reduces risk of being overweight. Breastfeeding may also impact adult health. In some studies, breastfed infants were more likely to have good cholesterol levels and normal weight as adults than those who were not breastfed.

I came to respect Steven Brill's reporting skills years ago, when his 1978 book, The Teamsters (Simon & Schuster), exposed the scrofulous inner workings of one of the country's strongest unions. Later, he founded The American Lawyer and its chain of siblings; Court TV; and Brill's Content. No longer associated with those influential stimuli to the media, Brill is now a columnist for Newsweek. He returned to reporting in his current book, After, whichwith clear source noteslets us in on strategy sessions at the Justice Department in the weeks after 9-11.
These revelations add further critical weight to the June 3 report by the Justice Department's inspector general, which, in my view, raises powerful questions about Ashcroft's fitness for officenot to mention his revisions of the Constitution in the subsequent USA Patriot Act and executive orders. The report was based on internal documents and over 100 interviews with detainees and government officials.
In fairness to Brill, I should point out that he does not agree with my assessment of Ashcroft, specifically the attorney general's roundup of hundreds of detainees whom he kept in prison for weeks, sometimes months, often under harsh conditions, by turning the American rule of law upside down. Under Ashcroft's orders, the prisoners were presumed guilty until proved innocent. But Steve Brill told the June 3 New York Times:
"We have to acknowledge that we stood the system on its head. But maybe it was for a good reason. It was a national emergency. Ashcroft's view was that he would rather put 762 people away for some number of months if two or three of them are guilty or can prove others are guilty."
Yet, by contrast with that conception of justice, one New Jersey FBI agent told Brill: "I'm an educated person, not some bigoted Southern sheriff from the sixties."
A section in After, "Saturday, September 29, 2001," starting on page 145, is based, says Brill in the source notes, on accounts from "two of the people who are closest to Ashcroft and were directly involved in these discussions [in the Justice Department]." The material is further confirmed, Brill adds, "by a White House official familiar with Ashcroft's articulation of the strategy in White House meetings."
Central in formulating this strategy was Michael Chertoff, assistant attorney general in charge of the criminal division. Recently, Chertoff has been confirmed by the Senate, 88 to 1, for a seat on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals (a level directly below the Supreme Court). The one opposing vote was from Senator Hillary Clinton, Democrat of New York, because Chertoff was the lead lawyer in a Senate investigation of the Whitewater affair. Senator Pat Leahy, Democrat of Vermont, said Chertoff merited the honor of a unanimous vote.
You decide, from what follows, whether Michael Chertoff is fit to be a federal appellate judge. Worth keeping in mind is what Democratic congresswoman Linda Sánchez of California said during John Ashcroft's June 5 testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. She skeptically asked Ashcroft to comment on a pledge she says Chertoff made during the roundup of immigrants that "every one of the detainees has the right to counsel, and every one of the detainees has the right to make phone calls to attorneys."
The attorney general did not respond to her request for an answer.
In his book After, Steve Brill, based on his sources, reports that in the strategy sessions at the Justice Department, Chertoff, agreeing that the detainees should be held for long periods of questioning, said that even if some got a hearing, "the hearings could not only be done in secret, but also could be delayed, and that even after the hearings were held and they were ordered deported [usually for only minor immigration violations], there was nothing in the law that said they absolutely had to be deported immediately. They could be held still longer."
As for the detainees' right to contact lawyers, Chertoff and the others in the room, reports Brill, knew that under INS rules, the prisoners "were entitled to call a lawyer from jail, but the lists the INS provided of available lawyers invariably had phone numbers that were not in service." (Emphasis added.)
Brill adds that "according to one person who says he was there, someone in the room remarked that the government should not try too hard to make sure these people could contact lawyers. 'Let's not make it so they can get Johnnie Cochran on the phone,' another lawyer added."
