Howard Richardson led Memphis unions, worked behind the scenes
Howard Richardson began his working life as a bellman at The Peabody in an era when black employees came and went through the back door and when men were sometimes referred to as "boys."
"He felt they were not being treated right," says his daughter, Elois Frazier. Instead of accepting low wages and poor working conditions, Mr. Richardson joined the Hotel and Restaurant Employees and Bartenders International Union. It became his passion for 44 years.
At his first union meeting, Frazier says, her father "stood up and argued his point. By the end of the meeting he was appointed secretary-treasurer and later became field supervisor." It made him one of the first black union organizers in the South in the 1960s. He worked his way to international vice president of the union in 1983.
Mr. Richardson was 81 when he died at home Sunday after a five-month battle with lung cancer. He called his daughter "Lois Jean" and told her when the end was near: "'I know you're upset, but I'm OK with it.' He was ready," she says.
Mr. Richardson's job made him part of labor's inner circle and, because of the voting strength of unions, part of the inner circle of Memphis politics. "He's been through it all -- the civil rights movement, the labor movement. He had a wealth of knowledge to share," says Van Turner, chairman of the Shelby County Democratic Party.
Turner says he was often summoned by Mr. Richardson to his home for a strategy session. Or they would go out to one of Mr. Richardson's favorite restaurants, usually Paulette's. If they ate at home, it could well be a meal of Mr. Richardson's own baked chicken wings. Cooking was one of his hobbies along with a little poker, walking and jazz music.
His circle of friends included Memphis AFL-CIO president Irvin Calliste, who says Mr. Richardson "was more savvy than most politicians, and, as a labor leader, he was a people person. The thing about him is he had so much knowledge."
Chad Johnson, executive director of AFSCME-Local 1773 described him as "a legend in labor circles for his long commitment and political action. He was a very quiet-toned man and liked to work behind the scenes or one-on-one. He was rarely the person standing at a podium and yelling. He always felt that labor rights, human rights and civil rights are all the same thing."
Rebekah Jordan Gienapp, executive director of the Workers Interfaith Network, agreed her friend was a quiet strategist, but, "When he thought he needed to be, he could be a little more fiery."
Mr. Richardson leaves two other daughters, Karen Swan of Detroit and Maryam Husain of Chicago, and a son, Howard R. Richardson Jr. of Memphis; a sister, Mamie Eldridge of Anaheim, Calif., and three brothers, Curtis Richardson of Detroit, F.C. Richardson of Merrillville, Ind., and Raymond Richardson of Nashville.
Visitation will be from 10 a.m. to 11:55 a.m. Thursday at Mt. Olive Cathedral CME with funeral at noon and burial in New Park Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. J.O. Patterson Mortuary has charge.

Building work yet to begin, says ZP chairperson
Cites non-release of funds as reasonCollector seeks village-wise lists for sanction of pension
KADAPA: Six hundred and thirty one anganwadi centers have been sanctioned in Indiramma model villages in Kadapa district, including 78 in urban areas and 553 in rural areas, Kadapa Zilla Parishad chairperson D. Jyothi Reddy said on Monday.
Work on the buildings were yet to commence due to non-release of funds, she told a review meeting with officials at ZP meeting hall. When Ms. Reddy suggested location of new anganwadi centres in SC/ST colonies, Collector M.T. Krishna Babu directed ICDS Project Director P.V. Lakshmaiah to do so.
The Collector asked DRDA Project Director R. Hariprakash to prepare village-wise lists of eligible persons awaiting sanction of pension, to seek grant of funds from the Government.
Mr. Krishna Babu said basement was constructed for 17,755 houses out of 82,033 sanctioned in Indiramma scheme.
He told district Manager of Housing D. Selvaraj to intimate to new beneficiaries about sanction of houses and warn them that sanction would be cancelled if they did not construct basements by October-end.

North Korea is hoping to cozy up to the west. New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson said on CNN yesterday, "the North Koreans are sending good signals, that they're ready to talk directly to the United States." He hosted a North Korean delegation yesterday. He said "they felt that the President Clinton visit was good, that it helped thaw relations, and make them easier." But counter-proliferation's experts say there will be nothing easy about it unless North Korea gives up its nuclear ambitions.

The Sony HVR-S270U is an HDV camcorder designed for ENG applications, while still being highly cost-effective. Incorporating all the benefits of HDV technology, the camera can also take advantage of standard-size DV tapes for increased run-times.
Additionally, the HVR-S270U can record directly to CompactFlash cards via the camera's supplied memory recording unit. Combined with Sony's entire family of HDV products, the HVR-S270U is a great camcorder for almost any production, including documentaries, news, low-budget movies, music videos, and industrials.
- ClearVID 3CMOS Technology
- Sony's ClearVID sensors are positioned at a 45° angle. Since each pixel is positioned at this angle the result is far clearer diagonal lines. Images will appear crisper, without the apparent "jaggies" that often plague video signals.
- Record to CompactFlash
- The camera comes with an attachable recording unit, allowing users to record HDV and DV to CompactFlash cards. With cards getting larger and larger in capacity, the ability to take advantage of tapeless workflow while still using cheap media is a welcome addition.
- High Definition on MiniDV Tapes with HDV
- The HDV format, used in the HVR-S270U, allows high definition recording on standard MiniDV tapes. This is accomplished by using the very popular MPEG-2 compression technique used in many applications, including DVDs and satellite television.
- 24p Capability
- In 24p mode, images from the CMOS can be 2:3 pulldown-converted and recorded onto tape in the standard 60i HDV format. The tape can then be played back or edited using an ordinary HDV system. True 24p editing can be achieved by uploading 2:3 pulldown-converted images via an i.LINK FireWire interface to a compatible non-linear editing system. The resultant images resemble the visual motion of film!
- High Definition LCD
- When shooting HD footage, standard LCD screens can be very deceiving; what looked perfect amidst a full-day video shoot can sometimes prove very soft or out of focus while in post-production. The HVR-S270U comes equipped with 1-MegaPixel LCD screen, eliminating this oft-pesky phenomenon. Record with confidence, knowing that what you see is what you will get. The LCD is well-placed on the top of the viewfinder for simple operation.

Baen's gripping list of science fiction never stops: these are some wonderful recent winners. Leo Frankowski's Conrad Stargard: The Radiant Warrior (0743488636, $24.00) presents a total life change for one Conrad Schwartz, who one moment is hiking through the mountains of Poland, and the next finds himself stranded in 1231 AD, fleeing an angry Teutonic knight. Medieval Poland comes alive as Conrad decides to turn it into the most powerful country in its time--and faces the Inquisition during the process. Spider Robinson's Very Bad Deaths (074348861X, $18.00) confirms that Spider Robinson hasn't lost any of his compelling touch despite decades of writing. Shattered by the death of his wife, American expatriate Russell Walker is ready to join her--but Smelly, his old college roommate, won't let him go. And Smelly's urgent need for an intermediary with the police brings Russell into contact with a feisty female constable, a telepathic hermit, and a serial killer monster in the process. Swift action with a healthy dose of irony evolves. Travis S. Taylor's Warp Speed (0743488628, $22.00) tells of an astronaut who strives to reach the stars, preparing himself through martial arts, physics studies, and more. Her and his team have actually built the first warp drive, convincing the government to fund an impossible dream: now Dr. Clemons has new ideas for the drive, unsuspected by America's enemies, and espionage and international intrigue create high stakes for the prize.

Tinker finds herself too involved in the politics of the Elven court, technology smugglers, and more as she tries to balance inventions with romance. Humor permeates a fast-paced, unpredictable plot. David Drake's The Far Side Of The Stars (0743488644, $7.99) tells of one Lt. Daniel Leary and fellow officer Adele Mundy, who must find other work during peaceties. Their venture into a dangerous escort service involves them with winged dragon challengers, jealous lovers, and a prophetic mystery in Drake's involving winner.

Sanford, Colbert Busch trade jabs in SC debate
Tuesday - 4/30/2013, 3:28am EDT
Associated Press
CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, trying to revive his political career, and Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch traded verbal jabs on his past indiscretions and her liberal political supporters during a spirited debate Monday night -- their only scheduled meeting in the race for the state's vacant 1st Congressional District seat.
With eight days to go before the May 7 special election, Sanford stressed his efforts to rein in spending as a three-term member of Congress and as a two-term governor. The Republican noted that he was the first governor in the nation to turn back economic stimulus funds.
But Colbert Busch reminded Sanford that he once used taxpayer funds to "leave the country for a personal purpose" -- referring to the extramarital affair with an Argentine woman he had while governor. Sanford said he didn't hear the response and asked to have the question repeated.
"Answer the question," Colbert Busch chimed in.
Sanford wasn't biting.
Later, Sanford was reminded by a questioner that he voted to impeach President Bill Clinton because of his involvement with Monica Lewinsky and asked if he would vote that way again.
"I would reverse the question," Sanford said. "Do you think President Clinton should be condemned for the rest of his life for a mistake he made in his life?"
Sanford is trying to rebound from a scandal that sidelined his political career.
In 2009, Sanford, after telling his staff he was out hiking the Appalachian Trail, returned to the state to reveal that he was in Argentina with a woman he later became engaged to after divorcing his wife, Jenny. Before leaving office, Sanford avoided impeachment but was censured by the Legislature over state travel expenses he used for the affair. He also paid the largest ethics fine ever in South Carolina, $70,000.
On the issues, Colbert Busch criticized Sanford for voting in Congress against harbor dredging and building a higher bridge so the Port of Charleston could handle a new generation of larger container ships.
"My opponent voted against the dredging and voted against the bridge," said Colbert Busch, a businesswoman and the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert.
Sanford shot back that if it bothered her so much before, "I don't think you would have written me a $500 check as I left the Congress to run for governor. I don't think it must have bothered her that much."
The Democrat that she'd talked with Sanford a number of times years ago and he had said he supported trade and dredging.
"You didn't tell the truth," she told Sanford. "You turned around and did the opposite."
Sanford later said he opposed the money coming in the form of earmarks.
"I was against earmarks before being against earmarks was cool," he said.
Colbert Busch also said that, if elected, she would return 10 percent of her congressional salary to the government.
The candidates also differed over issues such as immigration reform, the federal health care overhaul and abortion during the debate sponsored by the Patch news service, the South Carolina Radio Network and Charleston television station WCBD and which was telecast by C-SPAN.
Sanford tried to tie Colbert Busch to House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and labor unions. Often though, when he did so, Colbert Busch supporters would jeer.
"With all due respect to Nancy Pelosi, whose name I will raise again ... it all goes back to her and others. They have not pushed for financial discipline in Washington, D.C.," he said.
Colbert Busch said she was independent and planned to represent the district's voters, first and foremost. The debate, attended by 500 people, was frequently interrupted by applause and shouts from the audience.
"We're at an incredible tipping point as a civilization and I think if we don't get spending right in Washington, D.C., there will be real consequences," Sanford said. "I've gotten into this race with the hope of taking what I've learned in Congress, what I learned in the governorship and what I've learned on the way up and on the way down and applying it to what I believe is the great debate of our civilization, which is indeed, how do we get our financial house in order."
Colbert Busch portrayed things differently.
"Here's the fundamental difference. This is not the end of our time as we know it," she said. "The sky is not falling Henny Penny. In fact our best days are ahead of us."
The debate was the first joint appearance by the candidates in a campaign that began after then-U.S. Rep. Tim Scott was appointed to the U.S. Senate seat vacated by fellow Republican Jim DeMint.

Tjernlund Products Inc.: Residential Fresh Air Intake System
October 10, 2011
Called Fresh Air In-Forcer, the system consists of a fan and exterior hood that can be installed through a 4-inch round exterior wall opening. According to the manufacturer, it is an effective, affordable way to supply fresh outside air to dilute trapped pollutants and replace air vented by exhaust fans and fuel-burning equipment in residential structures. Operating control options include manual operation by plugging into a 115-vac switched outlet, plug-in timer operation for a desired schedule, or dehumidistat control operation. Standard 4-inch flex or metal duct may be used for ducting. The quiet, high-efficiency 90-cfm fan consumes 18W.

|A comparison of household saving motives between Chinese and Americans
|Wang, Feifei, 1985-
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|The main purpose of this study is to compare the household saving motives between Chinese and Americans. The two datasets used in this study are from the 2008 Survey of Chinese Consumer Finance and Investor Education and the 2007 Survey of Consumer Finances in the United States. The likelihood of reporting precautionary saving motive, education saving motive, and retirement saving motive was tested by logistic regression analysis. This study concluded that Chinese households were more likely to report the precautionary and education saving motives, when compared with American households. In terms of the retirement saving motive, only Chinese households placed in the first and second household income groups were more likely to perceive the retirement saving motive than their counterpart Americans. There was no difference in perceiving the retirement motive between Chinese and Americans for all the other household groups. The stronger motivation to save for Chinese than for Americans serves as a good explanation for the higher saving rates in China than in the United States. Policy makers and financial planners can use the findings to target particular population who are less motivated to save, and to help them realize the importance of saving and conduct necessary saving behaviors.

Dominicans beat United States in WBC, 3-1
Both starting pitchers benefited from umpire Angel Hernandez's large strike zone, and they cooled off two teams that came into the game batting over .300.
R.A. Dickey, the NL Cy Young Award winner last year, gave up one run and struck out four in five innings. Minnesota Twins right-hander Samuel Deduno allowed one run and struck out seven, mostly on curves, in four innings for the Dominican Republic.
Deduno walked Eric Hosmer with the bases loaded to score the lone U.S. run in the opening inning. Deduno then went to 3-0 on Adam Jones but struck him out on a 3-2 breaking pitch to escape the jam.
Deduno also struck out Hosmer looking to end the third, then walked to the dugout shouting with both arms raised. He was just as demonstrative after fanning Jimmy Rollins to end the fourth.
Strop pounded his chest when he kept the score tied by getting three outs in the eighth.
"There's passion on both sides," Torre said. "It's just showed a little different. It's nothing we didn't expect."
Ramirez, traded by the Marlins during their dismal 2012 season, drew boos when he batted in the second. He responded by pulling a knuckler into the beer garden to make the score 1-all.

Identifying trophic variation in a marine suspension feeder: DNA- and stable isotope-based dietary analysis in Mytilus spp.

Accurate field data on trophic interactions for suspension feeders are lacking, and new approaches to dietary analysis are necessary. Polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) was integrated with stable isotope analysis to examine dietary patterns in suspension-feeding Mytilus spp. from seven spatially discrete locations within a semi-enclosed marine bay (Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland) during June 2009. Results of the two methods were highly correlated, reflecting dietary variation in a similar manner. Variation in PCR-DGGE data was more strongly correlated with the principal environmental gradient (distance from the opening to the Irish Sea), while values of δ 13C and δ 15N became progressively enriched, suggesting a greater dependence on animal tissue and benthic microalgae. Diatoms and crustaceans were the most frequently observed phylotypes identified by sequencing, but specific DNA results provided little support for the trophic trends observed in the stable isotope data. This combined approach offers an increased level of trophic insight for suspension feeders and could be applied to other organisms.

so tempting :'|
People have been copying (I use that term affectionately) other peoples ideas since cavemen painted on walls. As one person already put it, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I think some people have been unfair in saying that the OP's new item is not going to be unique and original when they haven't even seen it. And yes, if it's a good design and does something new and interesting people are probably going to be inspired by it and try to do something similar.
Just stand by your product and focus on providing great support for your customers and creating new and exciting things. Don't obsess over whether or not someone else is going to copy your design or steal your code. If you truly feel someone has done something they shouldn't just notify support of your concerns and let them handle the rest.
^ that. And we use a lot of things somebody somewhere invented, for example slider, standard layouts, 600px etc. If all those things were patterned and perfectly protected things would be pretty much [language removed] up now. You use others people ideas but you don't want anybody to use yours? It's evolution and with uniqueness you feed it, so why be selfish?
Getting a bit heated. Going to have to lock it down.

On November 7, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau unveiled a process designed to warn individuals and companies of possible enforcement actions against them. At its discretion, the Bureau may provide an Early Warning Notice and an opportunity to respond before deciding whether to pursue an enforcement action. This process is not required by law, however, and the CFPB may decide not to provide notice in certain cases, such as when the Bureau's Office of Enforcement believes that prompt action is necessary.… Continue Reading

Risky Business: CFPB's New Consumer Risk Assessment ProcessPosted in Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB), Fair Lending/Anti-Discrimination
By: David L. Beam, Rebecca Lobenherz, Stephanie C. Robinson
Those who have been concerned about the expansive powers of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB" or the "Bureau") should ready themselves for the risk assessment reviews that the Bureau is about to initiate. The CFPB recently released the first edition of its Supervision and Examination Manual ("Examination Manual"), which provides an overview of the Bureau's supervision planning process and details the Bureau's examination procedures. A key component of the Examination Manual is the CFPB's Consumer Risk Assessment process, which evaluates supervised entities based on the amount of … Continue Reading

The Department of Education, as required by the Higher Education Opportunity Act, plans to publish a model form that schools can use to communicate financial aid offers to students.… Continue Reading
The CFPB Mortgage Servicing Examination Procedures Fail to Harmonize – Isn't it Ironic?Posted in Mortgage Servicing
By: Jonathan D. Jaffe, Steven M. Kaplan, David I. Monteiro, David A. Tallman
The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (the "Bureau" or the "CFPB") was designed to provide a single, integrated federal approach to consumer financial protection. But with the October 13, 2011, release of its new Mortgage Servicing Examination Procedures (the "Procedures"), the CFPB appears to leave it up to scores of individual examiners to decide in their subjective judgment whether a company's loan servicing practices raise "unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices" ("UDAAP") concerns. A federal government that is supposed to sing in one … Continue Reading
When Trying Title Becomes Trying: The Impact of Bevilacqua v. Rodriguez on Massachusetts Foreclosure LawPosted in Litigation & Enforcement Actions
By: R. Bruce Allensworth, Andrew C. Glass, Roger L. Smerage
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ("SJC") has ruled that Massachusetts property owners may lack standing to establish title to their property where there is a void foreclosure sale in the chain of title. The Massachusetts "try title" statute permits a holder of "record title" in possession of property to file a petition to force adverse claimants to defend their purported interest in the property. In Bevilacqua v. Rodriguez, the SJC held that a third-party purchaser of foreclosed property did not hold record title where no assignment of … Continue Reading

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
The sensibility is hard to define: sort of romance as something doomed and precious but enlivened by little flicks of the knife. This could be annoying as the basis of an actual relationship, but it's a good framework for music and its indefinite emotions. In fact, what's most interesting about the Hissyfits' Letters From Frank is that I can't get a fix on its emotional tone. This ambiguity seems quite deliberate.
Lead singer Princess sounds little girly, but not in a cute wayher high-pitched vocals just haven't lost their baby talk. And I can't tell whether the mood is sweet or bitchy (in other words, it's both). The words are designed for ambivalence: "Daniel is staring at me with his sick fantastic eyes." Many of the lyrics are built on just a few phrases, the phrases reversing meaning as a song goes on. "Today Is the Day" repeats the words "I'm so glad you came into my world" in an insanely beautiful melody that struggles to be heard through static and guitar fuzz. Then the notes of the song break up (as the joy breaks up, perhaps).
"Something Wrong" is about a perfect love, or a perfectly painful love. "He said, 'You look so pretty, in this light it hurts my eyes.' " (This line reminds me of the first episode of the teen epic My So-Called Life, where Ricky asks Rayanne and Angela what they'd most want a lover to say when commencing sex. [Rayanne: "This won't take long."] Angela suggests, "You're so beautiful, it hurts to look at you." Ricky tells Angela that this is wonderful, while Rayanne snickers. Then Rayanne goes on to get smashed and smashed up, flirting and picking fights; she has to be rescued by police. As she and Angela are being taken home in a patrol car, a giggly drunk Rayanne gets suddenly lucid, stares at Angela, says to her in earnest, "You're so beautiful it hurts to look at you," then stumbles from the car up the steps to her home.) The Hissyfits like to sing about eyes. A window to the ambivalence of the soul. At the end of "So Sweet," the singer instructs the poor Daniel creature to look into her eyes, as if to tell him that she's the dangerous one, the one with sick amazingness in her gaze. It's like a contest to see who has the most captivating danger.
In "Something Wrong," in contemplating an apparently perfect guy, the singer goes, over and over, "There must be something wrong with me," since the relationshipobviously, on principleis headed for ruin. And as she keeps repeating, "There must be something wrong with me," it could be an accusation against herself: Why is she walking away from this perfect love? But it feels more like bragging, as if she's got an edge on romance; so if it's doomed to go wrong, at least it will go wrong on her own terms. But she has not defined the tone as accusatory or bragging, so it gets to be either. Or both.

I bought the unit for 3 reasons - Speed camera alerts, Traffic alerts & European & UK mapping. Within 6 weeks of purchase my first unit just stopped altogther..... After a heated argument with Halfords 'we can't refund your money you're past the 28 day return rule' - they offered me a replacement.
This time after 2 weeks, the Speed camera alerts disappeared... The Traffic alerts & European & UK mapping never worked.
Another word of warning - When purchasing the unit I was totally unaware I'd have to download everything. I would not have gone near this Sat Nav I'd known I'd have to spend half my life on the internet attempting (in vain) to download things I thought were already on the damn thing..
Frankly, this product is utterly useless.

Moderate Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Face of Truth: Lifting the Veil (Paperback)
If you are looking for a good mix of history and technical confirmation, this is a good book to read. As I try and place myself in a non-believers, agnostic's or seeker's position, I try to ask if it answered questions about God and Jesus to my satisfaction. Understanding no one book will answer ALL of these questions, this one does a pretty descent job. I have read others that only cause more questions than they answer, but this one satisfies.
