GOP Rep. Latham to pass on Iowa Senate bid
Wednesday - 2/27/2013, 7:29pm EST
Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- Iowa Congressman Tom Latham, who had been considered the establishment Republican choice for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated next year by retiring Democrat Tom Harkin, announced Wednesday that he won't seek the job.
Latham, a 10-term Republican from Clive, said in a statement that he could not "in good conscience launch a two-year statewide campaign that will detract from the commitment" to the new district he was elected to in November.
He faced considerable pressure to run from throughout the Iowa Republican establishment, including Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad. Latham, a soft-spoken former businessman, had represented more than half of Iowa's counties during nearly 20 years in Congress and was considered a good fundraising match for Democratic Rep. Bruce Braley.
Attention now turns to U.S. Rep. Steve King, an outspoken conservative who has said he is weighing a Senate bid but was not expected to challenge Latham in a primary. King said Wednesday in a statement: "It is too big a decision to be rushed."
King gave no timeline for a decision. "A potential Senate race remains an analytic decision first and then one that requires deep conviction," he said.
Democrats would have been expected to hold the seat before Harkin, 73, opted last month not to seek a sixth term. Republicans, who need to gain six seats in 2014 to win the Senate majority, immediately claimed to have a real shot at the seat.
But in the month since Harkin made his announcement, Democrats have coalesced around Braley, a four-term congressman from Waterloo. He is the only Democrat to announce his candidacy for the seat.
Trying to foster an organized process for Republicans, Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad had urged Latham this month during a private meeting at the governor's mansion in Des Moines to seek the nomination. Branstad, who also met with King privately, said he urged King to develop more of a statewide network and consider running in 2016, should Republican Sen. Charles Grassley decide against running for a sixth term.
A national group started by former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove had identified King as a potential target of attack ads in its mission to field candidates more acceptable to general election audiences after GOP Senate candidates lost in races seen as within their reach in 2010 and 2012.
Branstad, who is expected to seek re-election next year, hopes to field a strong GOP ticket and avoid a potentially nasty Senate primary that could dishearten portions of the GOP coalition.
He also is urging Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds, a loyal Branstad protege, to consider seeking the GOP Senate nomination.
"I know the respect and support she has throughout Iowa," Branstad said in a statement provided to The Associated Press. "I have been greatly impressed with the work she has done here in the lieutenant governor's office and would urge her to explore a run."

Quantum Mortar "Critical Mass"?
I've been thinking of experimenting with large numbers of quantum mortars to see if they have a critical mass of sorts...meaning, how many does it take to get a good overall refire rate? I've noticed they tend to do decent damage, just not very often.
I'm thinking of grabbing a couple cheep-o engineer BOs and training them with as many iterations of this skill to see what effect it has, but was wondering if anyone has already done such a test? Has anyone seen the effect of 5-6 mortars? Does it suck, does it produce a non-stop **** storm of awesomeness....or something in between?

The Patent and Trademark Office has been going without a confirmed director for a year and a half. Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah.) has urged President Obama to nominate somebody already. He thinks the vacancy "hampers the agency's ability to influence policy and make long term-plans." Todd Dickinson is a former PTO director, now executive director of the American Intellectual Property Law Association.

20.08.06 - "Styles make fights" and were ready to deliver," said Wanda Bruce, A Ring of Their Own matchmaker. "From "Baby Doll" to "Hurracan" August 31 at Harveys will show fight fans a variety of styles and great action. "There will be explosive action when all of these fighters meet," Wanda promised and commented on the evenings card..
ELENA "BABY DOLL" REID and MARY "THE HEAT" ORTEGA:
"With Elena Reid (17-3-5) and Mary Ortega (28-2-1), battling for the WIBA flyweight title will bring out the warrior in both fighters, and also present a great south paw/orthodox match up. Mary Ortega has been in tough with the caliber of fighter like Ada Velez, and Elena with Regina Halmich twice so, the sparks will fly, and the title wont come easy," Wanda predicted.
LAURA "LADY RAM" RAMSEY and ERIN TOUGHILL:
"The rematch between Laura Ramsey (5-2-0) and Erin Toughill (7-2-1) will also be tough. Both fighters need a win to not suffer further set backs in their careers," Wanda continued. "Erin is promising another victory and is reported to be in great shape, while Laura Ramsey has been perfecting her game, and correcting a lot of mistakes since losing to Erin and will be hard to beat a second time."
DARIA HILL and JILL EMERY:
I foresee Daria Hill (3-3) and Jill Emery (6-0), to be a real interesting fight," Wanda stated. "Daria is the taller fighter, with a great reach and power to put behind her punches, while being shorter, Jill Emery has the capacity to punish Daria if she gets to her on the inside. Jill Emery is looking to extend her perfect streak to 7-0, and Daria is ready to fight hard to make up for her losses to Shadina Pennybaker and Suswella Roberts.
MELISSA "HURRACAN" HERNANDEZ and STACEY ROGERS:
Melissa (4-0) is coming into this fight with all the advantages- the great amateur career and a draw with Kelsey Jeffries EARLY in her pro career. Rogers, who is making the change from kickboxer to conventional boxer in her pro debut, may have a few tricks up her sleeve, since getting in some training with Kelli Cofer, who, like Melissa has fought Kelsey Jeffries. I anticipate some fireworks here, a really good fight."

Use our Lucky Dip Lottery Number Generator to help pick your lottery numbers (you will need your browser to be Java enabled).
Pick how many numbers you want from 1 to 10 (default is 6), then give it a number range (default is 49) and then
press 'Generate numbers'.
Your randomly generated numbers will appear below!
Try it - it's just for fun.
Note: The numbers produced here are random and are not in any way matched to any predictive 'system'.
Every lottery draw is unique. Whatever happened in the last draw or any other draw has no effect on the next draw. The lottery machine doesn't remember what happened before, neither do the lottery balls. That's what makes it a lottery - the organisers ensure that every draw is totally random.
So, if everything is random, what are the odds of picking that winning combination?
In a typical Lotto game with six balls for example, you have to pick the correct six numbers from 50 possible balls in any order to hit the jackpot.
The odds of picking one correct ball are 8.33:1
The odds of picking all six balls correctly are 13,983,816:1
To put this into perspective
Your chances of being struck by lightning are 2,000,000:1
A pregnant woman has a 705,000:1 chance of giving birth to quadruplets.
Someone eating an oyster has a 12,000:1 chance of finding a pearl inside of it. Everyone uses a different system for picking their lottery numbers. Some choose birthdays, their age, addresses, years, phone numbers, etc, some use prediction systems based on past results and others rely purely on luck.
But really, the only way to increase your chances is to buy more tickets.
Use this lottery number generator for
UK National Lottery 6 balls from 49
US Powerball - 5 balls from 53
US Mega Millions - 5 balls from 56
Euro Millions - 5 balls from 50
Oz Lotto - 7 balls from 45

Let me know you are E.C. because if you tell me you are potty training your 3 month old or 6 month old... of course I'm going to call B.S. I have a very open mind... but it doesn't mean I'll be POTTY TRAINING my baby... because you know.. this Post Still Didn't Suggest It Was About E.C. UNTIL they decided to mention it in the comments. So fucking please judge me because I don't believe you are potty training... and say I don't know the first thing about E.C.

PORTLAND -- The people behind a controversial marijuana billboard in downtown Portland have come up with a new message.
The original billboard (shown in photo at right) featured a photo of a glass of beer, a glass of wine, and a marijuana leaf. And above each photo, the words read: Beer, Wine, and Safer, respectively. It was located at Southwest 13th Avenue and Southwest Alder Street.
The billboard went up on Thursday, March 29 and by that night, it was no longer standing up.
Roy Kaufmann, a spokesman for the Marijuana Policy Project, which paid for the sign, said they suspected it had been vandalized. Others questioned whether the wind may have taken down the billboard. Portland police were investigating.
More:Portland pot billboard comes down
The Marijuana Policy Project said they designed the sign with the goal of getting people to think about how marijuana is objectively less harmful than alcohol to consumers and the community, Kaufmann said.
Now a new billboard has gone up that reads: The truth cannot be destroyed.
The Marijuana Policy Project wants to get a measure on the 2016 ballot legalizing recreational marijuana in Oregon. Both Colorado and Washington passed similar bills last year.

They are meant to give young people a taste of work, but traineeship are fast becoming a necessary, if poorly rewarded, precondition to launching their careers. Work placements are often abused as a form of cheap labour, with youngsters being given no training and little or no pay and sometimes being given simple, menial tasks like photocopying and making tea that do not make use of their skills and education. The European Parliament has now called for an end to this exploitation.
This week, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) released some encouraging news about the state of employment in the UK - youth employment is on the up. However, nearly a million 16-24 year olds are still left without work. For many young people, this is a desperate situation. Any length of time with little or no work is an extremely difficult cycle to break.

What should we do about foreigners? Should we try to make them more like us or keep them at bay to protect our democracy, our culture, our well-being? This dilemma underlies age-old debates about immigration, citizenship, and national identity that are strikingly relevant today. In Democracy and the Foreigner, Bonnie Honig reverses the question: What problems might foreigners solve for us? Hers is not a conventional approach. Instead of lauding the achievements of individual foreigners, she probes a much larger issue--the symbolic politics of foreignness. In doing so she shows not only how our debates over foreignness help shore up our national or democratic identities, but how anxieties endemic to liberal democracy themselves animate ambivalence toward foreignness.
Central to Honig's arguments are stories featuring ''foreign-founders,'' in which the origins or revitalization of a people depend upon a foreigner's energy, virtue, insight, or law. From such popular movies as The Wizard of Oz, Shane, and Strictly Ballroom to the biblical stories of Moses and Ruth to the myth of an immigrant America, from Rousseau to Freud, foreignness is represented not just as a threat but as a supplement for communities periodically requiring renewal. Why? Why do people tell stories in which their societies are dependent on strangers?
One of Honig's most surprising conclusions is that an appreciation of the role of foreigners in (re)founding peoples works neither solely as a cosmopolitan nor a nationalist resource. For example, in America, nationalists see one archetypal foreign-founder--the naturalized immigrant--as reconfirming the allure of deeply held American values, whereas to cosmopolitans this immigrant represents the deeply transnational character of American democracy. Scholars and students of political theory, and all those concerned with the dilemmas democracy faces in accommodating difference, will find this book rich with valuable and stimulating insights.

Hickory-headquartered Corning Inc. will help thousands of mobile users enjoy Super Bowl activities this weekend in Indianapolis.

Friendship defeats bullying.
Shuford Elementary School students learned that message all week during programs, contests and lessons that taught them no one has to be a victim of bullies.
"We learned how to help your friends when there are bullies," said fifth-grader Tamiya Artis. "If you do something good, you get something in return — friends."
Daily themes shaped the week's activities. Students wore hats Tuesday to "put a lid on bullying." On another day, students wore tie-dyed shirts and some read quotes about peace on the school's intercom.
A Conover woman faces child abuse charges after police said she was seen tampering with her infant daughter's intravenous line at a Charlotte hospital.
The Charlotte Observer reports Charlotte-Mecklenburg police responded to Carolinas Medical Center (CMC) after hospital staff saw Ladonna Kaye Parlier, 26, injecting a substance into her 5-month-old daughter's IV line.
Police said they caught Parlier on surveillance video abusing her child.
Detectives said she pulled a syringe from her daughter, Naomi's, IV line, then injected an "unknown substance" into the IV.
Summer will be two weeks shorter for students and teachers in the Catawba County Schools system - but that might not be such a bad thing, according to some.
More details on next year's school calendar in the Friday edition of The O-N-E.
Newton-Conover High School received remains from the World Trade Center, and the 110-pound piece of 9/11 history will be unveiled during a community ceremony later this month.
The exit of Gov. Beverly Perdue from the 2012 North Carolina gubernatorial race opened the door for a variety of serious and rumored candidates on both party tickets.
Former Charlotte mayor Pat McCrory — a Republican who lost to Perdue in the 2008 race for governor — and Lt. Gov. Walter Dalton, a Democrat, are in the race.
Current Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx and former UNC system president Erskine Bowles said they won't run for the state's top government position.
Have you picked a candidate to support in the governor race?
Bessie Cresimore McGee, 96, formerly of Newton, died Thursday, Feb. 2, 2012 at Catawba Valley Assisted Living at Rock Barn in Claremont. The McGee family has entrusted the funeral arrangements to Willis-Reynolds Funeral Home & Crematory in Newton.
Catawba County Schools (CCS) will have a new calendar next year that will shorten teacher and student summers by nearly two weeks.
Some of the system's teachers say they don't mind the change and are praising the "early-start" calendar that's more similar to schedules used in previous years.
The CCS Board of Education unanimously approved a new 185-day calendar this week that will start teachers Aug. 2 and students Aug. 7 for the 2012-13 school year. The last day of student classes will be May 23, 2013.
More than a decade later, aftershocks from the 9/11 terrorist attacks continue to touch hearts in the Newton-Conover community.
UPS recently delivered a tightly stuffed box to Newton-Conover High School. Tom Mentzer, senior Naval science instructor and Navy JROTC commander, retrieved the heavy box at the school's office.
"When I opened it, my heart was beating so fast," Mentzer said, "because I knew what was inside."
The box housed 110 pounds of history — a piece of one of the two World Trade Center (WTC) towers that collapsed after planes hit them in 2001.
Catawba County Schools (CCS) will have a new calendar next year that will shorten teacher and student summers by nearly two weeks.
Students must behave to stay in school and graduate.
In Catawba County, overall student behavior is improving, but additional work must be done to keep more students in the classroom until graduation, school leaders said Thursday.
N.C. Department of Public Instruction (DPI) released state and district statistics on crime and violence incidents, suspensions and expulsions, and dropout rates for the 2010-11 school year.

This legislation doesn't appear to apply to Penn State. Despite its name Penn State isn't a state-owned school. It's "state-related", which basically means it gets a lot of state support but is independently controlled. The legislation appears to apply to PASSHE, the collection of true state-owned schools (which are generally smaller teaching colleges). I suspect PASSHE has a lot less land at its disposal than Penn State does.

by James Slater - 28-year-old Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola did it again last night; he won a fight and looked impressive doing it as he carried into the ring with him a poundage in excess of the 250 mark. Many critics have been on Arreola's case for his continual desire to weigh-in in excess of the weight he often says he will tip in at, at 240, but until there comes a time when the excess weight affects Arreola to the point of him running out of gas or slowing down to a crawl, the Mexican/American can ignore such criticism.
In blowing away the huge Jameel McCline inside four rounds last night, Arreola proved he is the best of the current young and hungry heavyweight title contenders.. No, McCline, at age 38, is no world beater, but only fairly recently he came within a whisker of beating Sam Peter to capture the WBC crown, he is dangerous early, he is as experienced as they come, and he has not been stopped as quickly as he was last night for a long time (the freak, knee injury loss to Nikolay Valuev, in a fight he was winning, aside). Some people will argue that David Haye, Eddie Chambers and maybe Kevin Johnson have more of a chance of taking one of the two Klitschko brothers out of their current comfort zone, but for me the not exactly svelte, but genuinely tough guy from Riverside, California - a man who really enjoys fighting - is the best bet to end the Ukrainian's dominance.
Chris has often argued back when people have moaned about his weight, claiming, quite rightly, that he has never huffed and puffed in a fight and that his punch output remains as prolific late in a fight as it starts off in one. Remember, Haye was starting to look a little tired before finally despatching Monte Barrett last time out (to say nothing about the time he ran completely out of gas when he lost to Carl Thompson down at cruiserweight), and Chambers simply stopped fighting against Alexander Povetkin in his only loss. Johnson has yet to struggle in any fight, but he has not met the quality Arreola has.
Also, Arreola has good punch variety and real heavyweight power. He goes to the body well, he jabs well and he has a cracking right hand. "The Nightmare" has also proven the strength of his chin far more than Haye, Johnson and Chambers have. How would either of those guys have reacted had they been hit with the hard left hands to the head "Big Time" landed on Arreola in the 3rd round of last night's rumble? And Arreola showed he can keep a clear head and come back from a knockdown in his win over the heavy-handed Travis Walker. There is no doubt in my mind, though "Fast Eddie" scored a good, if slightly pedestrian win over an under-motivated and overweight Peter recently, Arreola is the best of the current heavyweight young guns.
Haye, should he shock both the odds and Wladimir Klitschko in June, will make mincemeat out of such a claim, but until then, Arreola - a guy the fans like because they see action, KO's, a high punch volume and because he is a humble, approachable warrior outside of the ring - gets this writer's vote as the best of the heavyweight hopefuls. 255 or less, "The Nightmare" is at least earning his shot by keeping busy, by taking risky fights ( be honest, how many of you picked McCline to win last night?) and by being entertaining.
Now 27-0(24), Arreola may get his chance to really silence his critics later this year.

HOOVER, ALA. | Most coaches take stock of preseason predictions and move on.
Georgia coach Mark Richt on Thursday wasn't dismissive of the fact that the Bulldogs were pegged to finish second in the Southeastern Conference's Eastern Division.
What's this? Richt quibbling with South Carolina as the pick to represent the East in Atlanta in the league title game?
Richt was asked at SEC Media Days if that sounded about right to have the Gamecocks numero uno.
"Uh, no," he said. "No, I'd have us first. I'd have us first. … That's our expectation to win the East. We don't want to say we're happy about being second. No, that's not even close."
Georgia finished third last season in the SEC East behind Missouri and South Carolina when the Bulldogs were 8-5 overall and 5-3 in the SEC during a season when injuries hit the Bulldogs hard.
Georgia plays at South Carolina on Sept. 13. The Gamecocks won 35-7 in their last meeting in Columbia.
"We got killed," senior inside linebacker Ramik Wilson. "It was bad. Very bad. That's not going to happen this year. We've got a new team, we've got all the pieces. We've got a lot of great players all around."
They include nine players selected preseason media All-SEC.
Gurley, Wilson and kicker Mashall Morgan are on the first team. Receiver Malcolm Mitchell, linebacker Jordan Jenkins and cornerback Damian Swann made the second team. Tailback Keith Marshall, offensive lineman John Theus and defensive lineman Ray Drew are third teamers.
Even with attrition in the secondary this offseason after the dismissals of safeties Josh Harvey-Clemons and Tray Matthews, Richt likes this bunch.
"Oh, yeah, we've got a good team," said Richt, entering his 14th season in Athens. "We'll see how good we are once we get going. We've got a lot of things to put together between now and then. I think we've created a very good culture this summer. Just listening to our guys on the plane ride here, asking how's it going, they're very optimistic. They're proud of their teammates and the work that's been put in."
Alabama was picked to win the West and be SEC champions, but Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban pointed out the media's spotty record of being accurate with picks to win the SEC.
It's been wrong the last five years and 18 of the past 22 years.
"Just to let you know," Saban said wrapping up his news conference, "that we're evaluating you."
Wilson said Georgia's talent level is as good as the program has had "in a long time here. We've got some great looking freshmen."
Georgia opens preseason practices on Aug. 1.
"We need to win now," Wilson said. "We've got the team to do it. We've got one shot. A team like this comes around like once every 10 years with the weapons we've got all around."
Maybe that's why Richt just puts it out there.
He said what's important is what happens at the end of the year.
"I think in the end," he said. "it's going to be Georgia."

anyone in lehigh valley area?
So I just bought my first boat, an 1979 O'day 23
in great condition, but needing just a hint of TLC.
I've had the bottom sanded back and painted, I've re bedded all the hull penetrations, my word, what a thankless job!!!!
Now, I've never actually sailed anything bigger than a hobby cat
I plan to take lessons on Nockamixon, but was wondering if there is anyone in the area who could take a quick "peak" at the boat before she gets shrink wrapped as to anything that needs "fixing"?
I will stand you lunch and a beer for your trouble,lol
Really just want to a knowing eye over her. I think I got a great boat at a decent enough price,which did not justify a survey.
Any valley sailors out there?

Wednesday morning, September 12, 2001
As I noted, because there was neither transportation nor hotel rooms available, I slept in the office Tuesday night. Eerie, but quiet. Couldn't sleep past six a.m. Dressed, went downstairs. Our building's security man was up on a ladder, putting the second of our two big American flags at half staff. I choked up, said: "That's good." He looked down, patting the flag as he came down the ladder. I reached out a hand to steady him. His eyes were wet, as were mine.
Third Avenue, a northbound river of humans escaping horror the previous afternoon, was deserted. No delivery trucks…all bridges and tunnels closed. A few runners, a few dogs walking their humans, but virtually clear all the way downtown. The billowing cloud from the disaster scene seemed just as large as it was yesterday. Unseen sirens echoed crosstown and downtown.
Got a bagel. Newstands locked up. Back to the office. Had to sign in, show photo ID and building pass. Our HR Director came in, as did a half-dozen dazed co-workers. Within a short time, we were told we could leave. E Train to Penn Station. Very few passengers, plenty of seats. Everyone swayed in an individual cocoon.
Penn Station was a 'zoo'…the only way to get to New Jersey or New England. Had to shoulder my way to the stacks of newspapers flying out of the newsstand and bought extra copies of the New York Times.
NJ Transit had extra staff answering an endless series of questions from upset and exhausted travelers. They did well. "All trains are free today. It's the least we can do." That produced some smiles. "Train to Dover, Track 13." A pushing, shoving throng broke through other lines to muscle their way to the narrow escalator.
Ample seats on the train. We left on time. Then, suddenly we're moving south through New Jersey. Out the left side was 'the view'…the plume of smoke and NO World Trade Towers. Every passenger watched, transfixed. Men and women alike, we cried.
My cell phone worked. My wife, Emily, would pick me up at Hackettstown, NJ. Had a three-hour layover at Dover before the ONE train to Hackettstown.
In the Dover train station parking lot, a white sedan pulled up and a big guy ran down the stairs to it. Short black hair, huge build, looked like a linebacker. T-shirt, jeans. On closer view, white ash ground into the jeans.
He enveloped his pretty wife, who ran from the car, leaving the driver's door open. They hugged and kissed endlessly in the warm sunlight. He broke down, had to lean on the side of the car, his large body heaving.
She handed him a cell phone and he talked a long time, crying and pacing, unaware of his surroundings. She finally got him into the passenger seat and closed the door. He leaned back, just drained. A dozen of us had watched the whole thing. We were not pleased to be voyeurs, but were unable to take our eyes away.
Two other cars drove up, picking up daughters. The scenes were much the same, hugs and tears all around, then dad gets everyone in the car, sighs deeply as he drives towards home, which will never be the same.
Thursday, September 13, 2001
No access to New York. We sat in front of the TV, mute with the horror of it all.
Friday morning, September 14, 2001
We commuters are pathetically predictable. By rote, we get up at the same time, arrive and park in the same place, nod to the same faces, take the same bus. The trick is to get to work with as little thought as possible. ANYTHING unusual is noticed.
In the dim half-light of 5:35 a.m., I walked from the parking lot to the little bus station, noting that there are FAR too many cars parked here for this time of morning. I cringed to think what that meant.
Strong thunderstorms and a cold front rumbled through late Thursday evening. Colored leaves are splattered on the macadam. We are in between showers.
As I walk, I think about the 20 buses each morning which bring about 2,000 commuters to NYC from eastern Pennsylvania. I'll guess that half of them work in the Wall Street area. Ahead of me, the Martz Park and Ride bus station looks weird. What's wrong? Two buses should already have rumbled past me.
There's a cement landing out front of the station. Ordinarily, the 5:25 a.m. Port Authority bus line faces left and begins at the left end, right by the big trash container. A lumpy procession of black carry bags are placeholders against the building. At the front edge, three feet out, the 5:30 a.m. Wall Street bus line starts at the other end, facing right. That bus stops at the right edge of the step.
Then, to the left of the station, the 5:40 a.m. Port Authority line snakes to the back of the building. The 5:50 a.m. line is two car widths to the right of that line. We all know our place and time. It is comforting. You know you'll get a seat, can get some sleep. You'll get into work on time.
Four buses load and leave within ten minutes. Very smooth, very predictable. You greet your driver, make sure you hand your ticket right side up so he can check the date.
But this morning, there's only one ragged line. No place holders…just people standing and waiting. Very strange. What's going on?
I don't know where to stand. Sign on the glass door: NO WALL STREET BUSES TODAY. People stare, gulp and understand. Everyone gets in 'the line.' The buses fill up. Air brakes sneeze, the door swings closed, the rubber gasket squeaks.
Two men across the aisle in front of me are talking softly. "What floor?" "Forty-seven. Two." "Were you able to get through to your wife?" "Just a quick call. She was hysterical." Not much else to say.
Behind me, two men confer. "Any word from Joe?" "No. Kept trying. But he was on 94 of Two." "Yeah." A heavy shower starts. Ordinarily, there would be grousing about the rain, or "we really need it, you know." Not today. We know that the cold chill is not good news for anyone in the rubble and we pray silently.
By now, the whole world knows the code of the World Trade Towers, which one was hit first, when they came down, which floors were almost certain death. The New York Times' graphics have told us much more than we ever wanted to know.
Ordinarily, the Wall Street passengers are by far the better dressed. These are men and women at the top of the heap, dressed elegantly and proud of it. We in the Port Authority bus line, many of us in 'business casual,' have admired them out of the corner of our eye with more than a little envy.
They are all in old work clothes today. Almost everyone carries a rucksack or canvas tote, probably packed with water, a sandwich. Cell phones are charged and working.
Other days, there are always pairs of 'chirpers.' These are several sets of women who talk incessantly all the way in. Never mind that most of us are trying to sleep.
Not today. After a few minutes of 'really glad to see you' greetings, the bus is full of funereal silence. Most sleep or try to, but our eyes seem glued open.
As we approach New York on the NJ turnpike, we have an ongoing view of the skyline and the plume of smoke. It is still impossible to believe that both towers are just…gone. Everyone stares. Some cry. Most sigh. Men blow their noses and wipe their eyes.
As we're in the bus lane, we are through the tunnel quickly. Port Authority is hushed, semi-deserted. Usually, the Greyhound buses disgorge happy throngs dragging bags heavier than their body weight. Not today.
The uptown E train has ¼ the normal load. Pass 50th St., Seventh Avenue, Fifth Avenue, exit at Lexington and 53rd.
Cold, hard shower. Umbrellas everywhere. People move woodenly, carefully. The air is acrid. I walk south towards the huge plume, visible down Third Avenue.
At 48th, a tall, skinny homeless man stands by his canvas mail cart, as he has done all winter, spring and summer. He is usually in the midst of an angry tirade, swearing softly, raising his right hand in righteous indignation against real and imagined foes. He sees the morning rush as his audience.
Not this morning. He has pulled his cart back up against the building, partly out of the driving rain. Yet about every two minutes, he shuffles unsteadily out to the curb and looks to the south.
He stands, holding on to the bus shelter, observing the rising plume of grey smoke, then turns and walks back, touching his cart, his home, with both gnarled hands. He picks through it, looking for something warmer. He has no words today.
Nor do I. Concentration is difficult at work. Loved ones call, pleased to hear I'm okay. I feel guilty, telling them I was 'far from danger.' My inner voice says: "Oh yeah? A few blocks from the U.N.? Where is 'safe'?"
At day's end, I go through the comforting, standard 'go-home routine.' As we reach Pennsylvania and pass the bus station, my eyes are drawn again to revisions on the hand-letttered sign.
God bless all of us in these troubled times.

LibreOffice bugzilla status
Im kind of over gettin told to throw my hands up in the air
so there
So, somewhere between the LibreOffice 4.2.0 and the 4.1.5 release, bugs.freedesktop.org broke through 25.000 reported bugs. A time to throw the hands up in despair? Not at all, as the following chart shows:
- 7% of reports are still unconfirmed or need more information
- 22% are confirmed and unresolved issues, that are not enhancements requests
- 6.5% are unresolved enhancement requests.
On the other hand:
- 33% of all reports have been fixed in some way
- and 30% are invalid or duplicates.
Its interesting to see how now a quarter of the confirmed unresolved reports are asking for new features and enhancements. Its gets even more encouraging, if you take into account that the number of bugs reports is at a long term constant 20-25 reports per day, while over 40% of the bugs intentionally or collaterally fixed changed their state in the last 12 month. So we are picking up speed in triaging and fixing bugs, while the influx of new reports stays constant.
If you are interested, please help QA quite a bit in all this by writing good bug reports, identifying duplicates, confirming new reports, bibisecting regressions, run and test daily builds and prereleases or otherwise helping with the QA Easy Hacks!
Liberated Build System: Mission accomplished!
It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
— So Hard, Taking The Long Way, Dixie Chicks
So, LibreOffice 4.2 is released, FOSDEM is over, was very nice and I am back home in Hamburg after a week in London. I missed the LibreOffice UX Hackfest for that, which I heard was also awesome. So without further ado, here are the slides from my quick talk at FOSDEM:
(direct link if you are watching this on a planet that does not support embedded speakerdecks: https://speakerdeck.com/sweetshark1/liberated-build-system-mission-accomplished)
and some errata for it: On slide 13 it says "the same file is also hardlinked from workdir/" — thats not true for quite a while already. LibreOffice keeps around exactly one copy of a library, unlike the confusing three copies that we had in LibreOffice 3.3. This should be a lot less confusing to the curious first time contributor.
Reviewing all these changes in toto, it became how much we simplified getting involved with LibreOffice through this. As the lyrics quoted above say: "Back when we started, we didn't know how hard it was".
If there is just one number to take away from all these slides, its that a noop rebuild for LibreOffice on a three year old developer notebook with the distro provided GNU make 3.81 takes just 17 seconds(*). And slide 7 shows still some possibilities to still speed things up beyond that — and while at current speeds it might not be worth it on Linux, it might be worthwhile for e.g. Windows, which is traditionally rather slow when it comes to file I/O.
On a related note, over time we improved the way new contributors can submit their changes on our instance of gerrit in many ways. Thanks a lot to David, Norbert and Robert for the work on this. One only has to look at one of daily digests generated from activity on gerrit and imagine we would still get one mail for each change, update and merge to the mailing list for manual patch tracking as we did in the early days. Thanks a lot also to Mathias Michel for his work on the script!
So if you haven't done that yet, consider graping an EasyHack and get started!
A copy of the original .odp is also available at FOSDEM or on the LibreOffice wiki.
(*) This includes checking 1.3GB of generated c++ dependency files for some >8000 object files, which we simplify to <350MB.

I have these in my house so my dogs can access our fenced back yard at will. It was easy to install, and easy to teach the dogs to use. We've had them 9 years, and I finally had to replace flaps. They do sell replacement flaps, which is great, too.
Pros: Easy installation
Cons: none

A rather popular style for evening wear attire since the 1700's, ball gowns are usually reserved for super elegant and extravagant events. Traditionally, ball gowns consist of full length skirts with exposed décolletages. Ball gowns are a great way to feel like royalty or a modern-day princess. You can choose from extra voluminous ruffled skirts to delicate multi-layered tulle skirts; for added flare ball gowns are usually paired with Cinderella slips or petticoats.
While ball gowns tend to be straight across or have a strapless sweetheart neckline, many designers now design ball gowns with cap sleeves or high illusion necklines. Most ball gowns have a corset lace up back which is great for accentuating your natural waistline. You can choose from heavily beaded bodices or extra feminine lace appliques. Not only are ball gowns becoming more popular for prom, ball gowns are ideal for Quinceañeras and usually get paired with gloves and tiaras.

Freddy Garcia struggles as O's lose to Padres 8-4
Facing the team he spent spring training with, Freddy Garcia looked like he needed a few more exhibition games.
In the shortest of his three starts for the Orioles, Garcia gave up four runs and seven hits in 3 2-3 innings in an 8-4 loss to the San Diego Padres on Wednesday.
"I was behind in the count all day long," Garcia said.
At spring training with a minor league contract, Garcia was released by the Padres on March 24 after going 1-4 with an 8.71 ERA in six starts. He allowed 25 runs and 26 hits in 20 2-3 innings.
He signed a minor league deal with the Orioles three days later and made his Baltimore debut on May 4, taking a no-hit bid into the seventh inning against the Los Angeles Angels before Erick Aybar's leadoff single. Garcia didn't get a decision in Baltimore's 5-4 win, but he lost his next start to Kansas City and lacked command against San Diego. He's 0-2 with a 5.51 ERA.
"Not quite as crisp," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said.
And while the Orioles are 23-17 with the first quarter of the season, Showalter was looking ahead rather than behind.
"This is an impossible game to be perfect at," he said. "I'm not going to get too reflective at the - that's for the Preakness or whatever it is, where they go a quarter-mile."
Alexi Amarista homered and doubled twice as the Padres matched their season-high with 17 hits and completed a two-game sweep.
Everth Cabrera had four hits and a walk, and Jedd Gyorko had three singles for the Padres, who are 13-6 after a 5-15 start.
John Baker hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the second against Freddy Garcia (0-2), and Kyle Blanks hit a two-run homer in the fourth for a 4-1 lead.
"We've been playing well the last three weeks," said Padres manager Bud Black, whose club rallied after losing three straight at Tampa Bay. "Things have turned in a good way. We had a tough series down in Tampa. I liked the way the guys responded today. It was outstanding. We got to their starter. We kept the pressure on, got a lot of base hits."
Every starter had at least one hit for the Padres, including Amarista, who entered the game batting .233 in 73 at-bats. Slotted eighth in the lineup between Blanks and Baker, the lefty-swinging outfielder went the opposite way for a two-run homer off Tommy Hunter in the seventh.
J.J. Hardy and Matt Wieters homered for the Orioles off Jason Marquis (5-2), who won his fourth straight start. Manny Machado had four hits.
Marquis allowed two runs, seven hits and four walks in five-plus innings. He has a 2.45 ERA in his last four starts.
Baltimore loaded the bases in the first before Wieters hit an inning-ending groundout. The sinkerball-throwing Marquis also escaped damage in the second and fifth by inducing double-play grounders.
"Some days you're not going to feel as good as others, but at the end of the day you have to make pitches in big situations," Marquis said. "I don't want to keep putting myself in those situations, but if you do, got to find a way."

Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation Donates 100 Evacuation Stair Chairs to LAFD
A donation was made of specialized chairs to move patients safely and quickly and prevent injury to firefighters and paramedics.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) September 19, 2013
One hundred "back savers," specialized chairs, were donated by the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation to the LAFD. The chairs are specially designed to enable firefighters and paramedics to transport patients who weigh up to 500 pounds in buildings without elevators, in narrow hallways and on steep hills. Not only are the patients moved safely and quickly, the chairs prevent back and knee injuries which often occur to firefighters.
Cedars-Sinai Health System donated $146,000 to the LAFD Foundation to purchase 73 of the chairs as part of their initiative to improve community health and safety. The Los Angeles Fire Department thanks Cedars-Sinai for their generous contribution which will enhance our public service to all the communities of Los Angels.
According to Captain Chip Cervantes at Fire Station 63, "This is the best tool we have in the station. It prevents so many injuries and helps us do our job better."
The Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation is the major source of private support to the LAFD. Their partnership furthers the mission of the department to save lives, property and the environment.

Please explain the quote: "We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness."
Who is saying it? When did they say it? What is the importance of this quote
1 Answer | Add Yours
This quote occurs a number of times in the book. In the only times when we know for sure who is saying it, O'Brien is saying it. It is sort of a mantra of the supposed resistance against the Party. Because it is a mantra of resistance, it becomes something of a comfort and a goal to Winston.
Winston hopes, throughout the book, for the day when people will be able to meet in a place where there is no darkness.
He knew what it meant, or thought he knew. The place where there is no darkness was the imagined future...
He takes this to mean a place where there is no longer the sort of control of people that the Party now has -- a place where people can actually let their thoughts and feelings out into the light.

LOS ANGELES – He's back, or at least enough to make everyone at USC exhale deeply.
All-America receiver Marqise Lee returned to practice Wednesday, five days after he left the field with his arm in a sling and was diagnosed with a shoulder bruise. Lee wore a no-contact jersey and didn't participate in most drills, but he should be at full strength for USC's Aug. 29 season opener at Hawaii.
Lee caught passes early in practice during individual drills but was mostly absent from full-team work. Coach Lane Kiffin said Lee is not yet able to participate in contact drills.
Lee did not speak with reporters after practice.
"Any time he's out here (it's good), not just because he's a great player and makes dynamic plays,'' Kiffin said. "He's an extremely energetic player. He practices like he plays. So I think he brings the level of competition up.''
On a day when 23 players were held out of contact drills, the Trojans managed to get healthier at receiver, as Nelson Agholor and Darreus Rogers also returned in part-time roles.
Aundrey Walker appears to have lost the left-tackle battle to Chad Wheeler, but in another surprising twist, Walker is now challenging John Martinez to be the Trojans' starting right guard.
Martinez, a two-year starter, spent all of Wednesday's practice with the second team while Walker, who missed the early part of fall camp because of concussion symptoms, took the first-team reps. Walker, a junior, entered USC as a guard but spent the last two seasons at tackle.
Kiffin confirmed that there's now a full-blown competition to be USC's starting right guard.
"We're always trying to create competition, and we've had a lot of that in this camp at different spots,'' Kiffin said. "Now we have one at guard. John and Aundrey are going to have a really good competition there.''
This is all good news for Wheeler, who rose from unknown freshman to starting left tackle. Kiffin seems comfortable with the pairing of Wheeler and left guard Max Tuerk, a starter at left tackle in 2012.
"Chad has been very good, very consistent,'' said Kiffin, who has also praised Tuerk's work at guard.
While the Trojans' offense is getting healthier, the first-team defense is becoming less recognizable by the day.
