Tentative farm workers deal in immigration talks
Wednesday - 4/10/2013, 9:32am EDT
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A tentative deal has been reached between agriculture workers and growers, a key senator said Tuesday, smoothing the way for a landmark immigration bill to be released within a week.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who's taken the lead on negotiating a resolution to the agriculture issue, didn't provide details, and said growers had yet to sign off on the agreement. The farm workers union has been at odds with the agriculture industry over worker wages and how many visas should be offered in a new program to bring agriculture workers to the U.S.
But Feinstein said she's hoping for resolution in the next day or two.
"There's a tentative agreement on a number of things, and we're waiting to see if it can get wrapped up," Feinstein said in a brief interview at the Capitol.
"I'm very hopeful. The train is leaving the station. We need a bill."
The development comes as a bipartisan group of senators hurries to finish legislation aimed at securing the border and putting 11 million immigrants here illegally on a path to citizenship, while also allowing tens of thousands of high- and low-skilled foreign workers into the U.S. on new visa programs. The agriculture dispute was the most prominent of a handful of unresolved issues. There's also still some debate over plans to boost visas for high-tech workers.
The group of four Republican and four Democratic senators has been hoping to release the landmark immigration bill this week, possibly as early as Thursday. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., a leader of the group, said Tuesday that this week remains the goal. But it also looked possible it could slip into next week.
Senators in the immigration group met Tuesday with Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who agreed to hold a hearing April 17 on the legislation, Senate aides said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deliberations were confidential.
That's something Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., has been calling for in response to pressure from conservatives who argue the bill is being pushed too fast without enough time for debate. Given Judiciary Committee procedures that allow Republicans to push for extra time to review legislation, the committee could begin to vote on and amend the bill the week of May 6, an aide said.
"The Judiciary Committee must have plenty of time to debate and improve the bipartisan group's proposal, so it's good that senators and the public will have weeks to study this proposal," Rubio spokesman Alex Conant said.
At least 50 percent and as much as 70 percent or 80 percent of the nation's approximately 2 million farm workers are here illegally, according to labor and industry estimates. Growers say they need a better way to hire labor legally, and advocates say workers can be exploited and need better protections and a way to earn permanent residence.
Senators plan to offer a speeded-up pathway to citizenship to farm workers already in the country illegally who've worked in the industry for at least two years. In addition they're seeking to create a new visa program to bring foreign agriculture workers to the U.S. But wages and visa caps have been sticking points, just as they were for a separate low-skilled worker program that was resolved recently with a deal between the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the AFL-CIO.
After negotiations between the United Farm Workers and agriculture interests, including the Western Growers Association, stalled in recent weeks, the four senators working on the issue -- Feinstein, Rubio, Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., and Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah -- developed a framework that would ultimately call for the agriculture secretary to set visa levels and wages, according to officials involved in the talks.
But the uncertainty of that structure sparked concern on both sides, and talks between growers and agriculture reopened. There now have been numbers set for wages and where to cap visa levels that the United Farm Workers has agreed to, officials said, although details weren't immediately available Tuesday. But growers emphasized they had yet to sign off.
"We are working diligently on the final details on the important details of the wage and cap and are hopeful, but have not agreed to anything," said Kristi Boswell, director of congressional relations for the American Farm Bureau Federation.
Even in absence of a formal OK from the growers side, Feinstein suggested that the senators were satisfied and would be moving forward with what they've settled on.
"We hope we can get their acquiescence and support, otherwise we just need to proceed ahead," she said.

Physiology and biochemistry
Domesticated pigeons and the Barbary dove have long served as subjects for avian physiological research, and knowledge related to their body functions is extensive. They appear to exhibit no remarkable specializations, compared with birds in general, with the exception that the crop becomes glandular in response to small amounts of the hormone prolactin. Prolactin was first discovered in pigeons by American zoologist Oscar Riddle in the 1930s, and pigeons still serve in the bioassay of this hormone from other sources. Prolactin also is produced by other birds. Among other functions, it reduces aggressive behaviour during the incubation and early brood-care stages of the reproductive cycle. It apparently is involved in the molting process and in mechanisms associated with preparation for migration. Pigeons are unique only in having secondarily evolved a new target organ responsive to the hormone.
The sense of taste, as with most other birds, is poorly developed, and it is probably not an important factor in selecting food. Shape and tactile characteristics and, to a lesser extent, colour are much more important. The average number of taste buds is only 37, confined to the soft area at the base of the tongue and palatine region (in contrast, humans have about 9,000 and rabbits about 17,000). Pigeons can, however, exhibit a surprising sensitivity to certain substances, such as acids; only at extremely low concentrations are acetic acid solutions accepted as readily as pure water. The olfactory organs are well developed, but smell seems to be of little significance in the daily lives of pigeons; experiments to demonstrate their olfactory abilities have yielded conflicting results. Visual acuity is highly developed, as in most other birds, although training experiments demonstrate that pigeons can attain an acuity little better than humans.
Evolution and paleontology
By the time they appear in the fossil record, the Columbiformes are already so well differentiated that their phylogenetic relations cannot be determined with certainty. The sandgrouse and pigeons resemble each other anatomically, but this may have resulted from convergence toward a similar mode of life. The earliest known pigeon is Gerandia calcaria from the early Miocene of France (about 23 million years ago), although the suborder probably arose in the Australasian region, where the greatest variety of modern columbiforms is found.
The dodoes and solitaires were highly specialized island forms that doubtless arose in the Mascarene Islands and were peculiar to those islands. Three species are known: the dodo (Raphus cucullatus) on Mauritius, the Réunion solitaire (R. solitarius), and the Rodrigues solitaire (Pezophaps solitaria). The dodoes and solitaires became extinct in about 1681, 1746, and 1791 respectively, as they fell easy prey to marauding sailors and could not compete with pigs and other introduced livestock. They were pigeonlike birds that had lost the power of flight in the safety of their predator-free island existence and had become large (as big as a turkey), heavily built birds with strong bills and feet. The wings had become rudimentary, and the sternum possessed only a small keel.
Distinguishing taxonomic features
The most important features distinguishing the Columbiformes are the structure of the skull, sternum, and furculum. The several species have close thick feathers set loosely in the skin, lack the fifth secondary feather of the wing, and possess a crop. The structure of the bill and nostrils, the arrangement of the sternotracheal musculature, and the presence or absence of intestinal ceca distinguish the suborders. Behavioral characteristics are of doubtful validity in relating suborder relationships because the similarities may have arisen by convergence. Blood antigen relationships may be considered more reliable.
Annotated classification
- Order Columbiformes
- Birds in which the palatine processes of the maxillae do not meet in the midline (schizognathous) and with vomer absent or vestigial. Palatine and pterygoid bones articulate with basisphenoid rostrum. Basipterygoid processes present, except in family Raphidae. Sternum with large lateral and smaller inner incisions, these often fused to fenestrae. Furculum U-shaped and with hypocleideum little or not developed. Nares separated by a complete internasal septum. Hypotarsus complex. Plumage, close and thick, feathers loosely set in skin. 5th secondary quill absent (diastataxic). Oil gland naked or absent. Well-developed crop present.
- Family Columbidae (pigeons and doves)
- Intestinal ceca absent or minute, syrinx with sterno-tracheal muscles asymmetrical. Young altricial (helpless) and hatched blind; without real down. Basal part of bill soft and covered with swollen skin that envelops the slitlike nostrils as a cap (operculum). External nasal opening into skull tapers behind into a narrow cleft running back into nasal bone (schizorhinal); 14–15 cervical vertebrae. 11 primary feathers, the outermost much reduced. Usually 12–14, and exceptionally 16–20, retrices. Crop bilobed. Nesting in tree holes or caves or building flimsy platform of sticks on trees or ground. Eggs usually white, except brown or cream in some quail doves. 2 eggs in most clutches, but some genera produce only 1. Length 15–80 cm (about 6–30 inches); weight 45–4000 grams (0.1–9 pounds). Wide range of colours, from grays and browns to striking orange, green, or purple. Worldwide except subpolar regions and some oceanic islands. Approximately 42 genera, 316 species.
- Family Raphidae (dodoes and solitaires)
- Extinct but with no fossil record. Flightless, with much reduced furculum and wing, fused coracoid and scapula and no basipterygoid processes. Large; weight probably exceeded 10 kg (22 pounds). Limited to Mascarene Islands. 3 species.
Critical appraisal
The subordinal limits of the Columbiformes seem to be well defined. The pigeons and doves make up a natural group, and early 21st-century DNA analysis supports the close relationship of dodoes and solitaires to pigeons and doves. On anatomical grounds, sandgrouse resemble pigeons and were therefore placed in the same order for a time. After years of debate, however, DNA studies confirmed that the sandgrouse (Pteroclidae) should be placed in its own order (Pteroclidiformes); their resemblances to pigeons have been attributed to convergent evolution.

I quoted Shakespeare's Hamlet in my last column who, after waxing on about "what a piece of work is man," asks his friend Rosencrantz: "What is this quintessence of dust?"
"Dust to dust" is our eventual fate but, in the meantime, of what are we made? What is our essence?
Rodents and fruit flies offer some intriguing, if partial, answers to these questions.
Many years ago I read about the DBA and C3H strains of mice that consistently prefer water over alcohol when given a choice. The C57 and C58 breeds, however, choose alcohol over water almost every time.
The offspring of the alcohol-loving rodents inherit mom and pop's fondness for booze, while the alcohol-hating mice produce litters that just don't like the stuff.
A more recent study reveals that mice possessing a subtype of the Grm7 gene tend to drink more alcohol. Grm7 is involved in communication between brain cells in mice. The mutated form of the gene reduces messenger RNA, indicating that the brain's glutamate pathways play an important role in reinforcement and addiction.
Okay, that's more than you really wanted to know.
But here's another good one. Rats that tend to like ("have a high preference for") alcohol are more sensitive to stress and more likely to "reinstate alcohol-seeking behavior" when subjected to environmental stress.
These rats have higher levels of the stress-related gene crhr1 and when stressed, they start drinking heavily. This research speaks to the role of "epigenetics," environmental influences such as diet, lifestyle, and trauma that can alter the expression of our genes and affect our vulnerability or resistance to disease. I'll cover epigenetics in my next column.
Fruit flies get drunk, too. Researchers have discovered 23 fruit fly genes that have human equivalents, which means that the fruit fly research can be translated to the human population.
One particular gene makes fruit flies highly sensitive to alcohol — they get "drunk" on the equivalent of a glass of wine. Researchers labeled the gene "Cheapdate."
In later studies the same researchers discovered a gene that raises tolerance for alcohol. They called this one "Happy Hour."
The "hangover" gene in fruit flies appears to increase tolerance for alcohol, which means that fruit flies with the gene are able to drink more without getting drunk. And, of course, the more the little buggers drink, the greater the chance they'll get addicted to the stuff.
Tolerance may seem like a great thing — you can just imagine a fruit fly bragging to its neighbor that it can drink the equivalent of a case of beer and still fly home — but flies (and humans) with lower tolerance (greater sensitivity) levels tend to be protected against addiction. One or two drinks and they're grounded.
"Cheapdate," "Happy Hour," and "Hangover" genes — don't you love it? And now for the "Lightweight" and "Lush" fruit flies.
In a 2007 study, researchers at North Carolina State University bred fruit flies over 25 generations into two groups — "lightweight" flies that were highly sensitive to the effects of alcohol and "lushes" that were highly tolerant.
Some 1,500 genes were linked to the difference between "lightweights" and "lushes," and 32 mutated genes directly affected sensitivity to alcohol.
The testing method was ingenuous. Fruit flies were exposed to alcohol vapors through an "inebriometer," a long vertical tube with platforms onto which the flies could cling. As the flies became inebriated, they fell from one platform to the next until they finally collapsed at the bottom of the tube.
The "lightweights" tumbled downward after just a minute or two of exposure to the vapors while the "lushes" were able to hang on for about 18 minutes.
Fruit flies, for all their light-weightedness, are infinitely and astonishingly complicated — much like the "quintessence of dust" called human beings.
So here's my quick and dirty synopsis of the genetic research on addiction-related genes.
Maybe when someone starts talking about why Joe doesn't just put the damn bottle down or why the heck Jane can quit using but relapses over and over again, we can keep these little gene stories in the back of our minds.
We're not all the same. We're not always in control. And we're not — definitely not — perfect.
The genes tell us so.

Customer comments about York Slipcover for 87" Sofa:
We ordered the slip cover for our York sleeper to brighten up the overall color of the couch in our living room. However it fully covers all the parts of the sofa that you need to function when using as a sleeper, so it simply defeats the purpose.
It might be fine if you have a normal sofa, but I would also say that it fit very loosely compared to all the other slip cover sofas we've seen.

December 6, 2012
WASHINGTON Ś ōJoy to Allö is the theme of the ObamasÆ fourth Christmas in the White House, which threw open its festive, fir-draped doors recently to the first guests of the season, U.S. troops and their children.
Fifty-four live Christmas trees lend color and sparkle to the Executive Mansion. The largest of the trees is an 18-foot, 6-inch Fraser fir from North Carolina that is festooned with ornaments crafted by children from U.S. military bases around the world.
Amid the greenery and garlands, another highlight: a gingerbread house, weighing almost 300 pounds, featuring lit chandeliers and a replica of first lady Michelle ObamaÆs garden.
The inaugural guests included Capt. Luis Avila, 42, and his wife and son. Avila, still hospitalized, lost a leg and suffered a brain injury from a makeshift bomb in Afghanistan during his fifth wartime deployment.
Obama engaged four Chicago artists Ś David Condon, David Lee Csicsko, Jami Darwin Chiang and Heidi Feinerman Ś to add creative touches to the decor, along with Chicago event planner Gabrielle Martinez.
They joined about 85 volunteers from 38 states and the District of Columbia. Tracy Jacobson, 54, a retired detective from Irvine, Calif., was among the volunteers. ōAmazing,ö she called the experience. ōOne of the most incredible things of my life.ö
A replica of Bo, the ObamasÆ furry, black-and-white Portuguese water dog, appears outside the gingerbread house, and, as in past years, has a starring role throughout the White HouseÆs Christmas pageantry.
The estimated 90,000 visitors who will stream through in coming weeks will receive a bookmark with check-off boxes to signify theyÆve spotted Bo ornaments or ōBoflakesö in eight locales, including the Red Room and the Green Room.
His own quarters Ś the Bo-val Office, so to speak Ś is not part of the tour.

The Delhi High Court on Friday granted bail to T.S. Darbari, one of the officials of the Organising Committee of the Commonwealth Games, in the Queen's Baton Relay scam case on a technical ground.
Justice Hima Kohli granted bail to him as the Central Bureau of Investigation failed to charge-sheet him in the case within the stipulated period of 60 days. The accused had also sought bail on the same ground. His counsel submitted that the accused could not be kept in judicial custody anymore as the investigating agency had failed to gather enough evidence to charge-sheet him within the statutory period. He was arrested on November 15. He, along with the other accused in the case, is facing prosecution for causing loss to the exchequer and gain to themselves to the tune of Rs.1.5 crore in the award contracts for making arrangements for the Queen's Baton Relay in London before the commencement of the Games.
Meanwhile, hearing on the bail application of M. Jeyachandran, another official of the Organising Committee, remained part heard. The Court will hear further arguments on it next Monday.
Darbari was the joint director and Jeyachandran treasurer of the Organising Committee.
CBI has charge-sheeted them for indulging in irregularities in payments made to UK-based firms A.M. Car and Van Hire Ltd. for transportation services during the launch of the Queen's Baton Relay and for hiring of video screens from A.M. Films Ltd for the function.

Bear Sightings
Please be aware that there have been past bear sightings in our neighborhood and in Meredith Heights. A neighbor on Bjorn street near Noll Road observed a bear eating bird seed in their backyard. A Meredith Heights resident reported sighting a bear as well. Bear sightings have also been reported in between the Elementary and Middle Schools. Please alert your neighbors and children to the possibility of a bear encounter.
Things to remember: Bears do not want to confront people, and will usually only do so if they feel threatened or if they have cubs they feel are at risk. Walk in groups, and talk to each other...bears will hear you long before you are aware of them if you are making a little bit of noise, and they do not want to be where you are. If you see a bear, STAY CALM! Do not make eye contact with the bear. Slowly and calmly back away from the area and get to the safety of a vehicle or building. Contact local police who will report it to the proper authorities. Stay safe, and have a great day!

|Public license information:
WCJB-TV is the ABC-affiliated television station for North Central Florida licensed to Gainesville. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 16 (PSIP virtual channel 20.1) from a transmitter in Wacahoota. Owned by Diversified Communications, WCJB has studios on Northwest 43rd Street in Gainesville.
WCJB began broadcasting April 7, 1971 as an NBC affiliate owned by William E. "Bill" Minshall. Originally broadcasting an analog signal on UHF channel 20, its call sign bears the first initials of his family members: Casey (daughter), JoAnn (wife), and himself, Bill. In 1973, just two years after its first broadcast, the station switched its affiliation to ABC, probably because that network held at the time exclusive rights to college football telecasts (which sometimes featured the local Florida Gators). In 1977, WCJB was sold to current owner Diversified Communications. In 2001, it began airing its digital signal on UHF channel 16.
On January 24, 2006, UPN and The WB announced the two networks would cease broadcasting and merge. The new combined operation would be called The CW. The letters would represent the first initial of corporate parents "C"BS (the parent company of UPN) and the "W"arner Bros. unit of Time Warner. On February 22, News Corporation announced it would establish another new network called MyNetworkTV. This new service, which would be a sister network to Fox, would be operated by Fox Television Stations and News Corporation syndication division Twentieth Television. MyNetworkTV was created in order to give UPN and WB stations, not mentioned as becoming CW affiliates, another option besides becoming Independent. It was also created to compete against The CW.
The area's primary WB and secondary UPN affiliate was operated by CBS station WGFL on its second digital subchannel. This used the fictional calls "WBFL" and was known on-air as "WB 10" after the Cox channel location. On September 5, low-powered WMYG-LP (which had been repeating WGFL's main signal) became a separate station and joined MyNetworkTV. On September 18, WCJB launched a new second digital subchannel to be the area's CW affiliate as part of the national CW Plus service. This took the channel location of WGFL-DT2 on Cox systems.
Its coverage area includes Lake City (within the Jacksonville market), Ocala (in the Orlando DMA) and most of North Central Florida. It is also the sole ABC affiliate on cable systems in Live Oak and Jasper (both within the Tallahassee area). Until July 2006, WCJB was the only ABC affiliate seen on Cox systems in Ocala. Even though that city is part of the Orlando market, this station had exclusivity on that system for ABC programming. This kept Orlando's affiliate, Cox-owned WFTV, off the system for several years. In that month, the cable company received the green light to pick up WFTV's standard and high definition feeds in Ocala. WFTV and WCJB are also both seen on Bright House Networks in Belleview and unincorporated Marion County.
Digital television[edit]
Digital channels[edit]
The station's digital signal is multiplexed:
|PSIP Short Name
|Main WCJB-TV programming / ABC
|Gainesville CW 10
WCJB-DT2 upgraded its signal to 720p in June 2012.[2]
Analog-to-digital conversion[edit]
WCJB-TV discontinued regular programming on its analog signal, over UHF channel 20, on February 17, 2009, the original date in which full-power television stations in the United States were to transition from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate (which was later pushed back to June 12, 2009). The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 16.[3] Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display the station's virtual channel as its former UHF analog channel 20. With this change, WOGX and WUFT continued broadcasting in analog until the new transition date.
Syndicated programming on the station includes Entertainment Tonight, Right This Minute, and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? among others.
News operation[edit]
Originally, WCJB was the only station to operate a news department covering the Gainesville area. As a result, it held the number one spot in Nielsen ratings by a wide margin for most of the station's existence. In addition to its main studios, this station operates a Marion County Bureau on Northeast 1st Avenue in Ocala. Unlike most ABC affiliates, it does not air a broadcast weeknights at 5:00 p.m.
Until the establishment of GTN News in 2010, WCJB had the only local news department on a commercial station - non-commercial WUFT television airs a nightly newscast produced by University of Florida journalism and broadcasting students; and Fox affiliate WOGX simulcasts newscasts from sister station WOFL in Orlando, with no separate local inserts targeted to the Gainesville area.
On April 19, 2009, WCJB debuted a new set complete with updated graphics and music theme which had not changed in almost ten years. The graphics are yellow and orange instead of blue and white. Its updated logo now includes ABC in it unlike the previous two. WCJB began airing local newscasts in high definition on January 9, 2010.
From September 18, 2006 until February 2010, it produced a weeknight prime time show on WCJB-DT2. Known as WCJB-TV 20 News at 10 on Gainesville CW, this aired for thirty minutes. The live broadcast was dropped in favor of a repeat of the main channel's 6 o'clock show. Like all CW Plus affiliates in the Eastern Time Zone, WCJB-DT2 continues airing the nationally syndicated show The Daily Buzz on weekday mornings from 6 until 9. During the program, there are local weather cut-ins.
Florida-Dayton recreation[edit]
On March 29, 2014, the Florida Gators beat the Dayton Flyers 62-52 in the NCAA basketball tournament. Since WCJB is an ABC affiliate and CBS owns the broadcast rights, the network could not show highlights until the day after per NCAA regulation. The news team instead recreated the highlights inside a conference room at the station's studios, using a mini-hoop attached to the wall and the station staff doubling as players.[4]

We had a paved, level pull through. It was in the trees so there was a lot of fir needles. No staff on the weekend. Our space was in the middle and we were only about 150ft. from the train tracks and 5-6 trains went through per night. Bring your ear plugs. Good Wifi. Good cable. - Ross Brand

Not great. Narrow roads, tight turns, dirt sites. Pool was really green. Trains with whistles all night. Dump station poorly located (could only be used when entering). Inadequate bathrooms. We left after one night, expected to stay more. Sites are under heavy tree coverage. - User3119

Stayed here after previously staying in a very sunny and hot location, so appreciated the shade of the very mature trees. However, a very large tree at the entry to the site would have made parking much more difficult had one of the staff not re-directed us to enter from a different way than we'd been instructed at the office upon check-in. Because of the trees, there was no grass and plenty of pine needles to track in, but it was very comfortable for sitting outside. The site was level, asphalt. Good Verizon service. The staff was friendly and helpful. Will consider staying here again if in the area. - nw explorers

|Known for
|The Decline of Intelligence in America
Seymour William Itzkoff (born 1928) is an American professor known for his research into intelligence.[1] He has taught at Smith College since 1965 where he is currently professor emeritus of education and child study.
Life and career[edit]
Born in Brooklyn, New York, Itzkoff earned a B.A. degree from the University of Hartford.[2] While at school, he was a cellist with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra; he then joined the United States Army, playing in the U.S. Army Orchestra. He later taught elementary school while earning a master's degree in philosophy from Columbia University in 1956. While studying for his doctorate, he taught education at Hunter College, CUNY. He earned his Ph.D. from Columbia in 1965, and took a position at Smith College that year. Itzkoff was married while attending Columbia and subsequently had two children.
Itzkoff is a strong advocate of the effects of biological determinism on intelligence.[3] Itzkoff suggests in Why Humans Vary in Intelligence that hereditary factors probably account for 70% to 80% of variability in IQ.[4] He has stated that standardized test ability is difficult to improve, especially verbal ability.[5]
Itzkoff's work on intelligence has been published in Mankind Quarterly, and he has been a Pioneer Fund recipient.[6] The ensuing tension echoed similar problems faced by Pioneer Fund recipient Linda Gottfredson at University of Delaware.[7] One historian wrote, "While the Delaware and Smith cases are unique, they illustrate an inherent tension between freedom in research and other central academic values."[8]
According to science journalist Malcolm Browne, Itzkoff's 1994 book The Decline of Intelligence in America was one of a series of books that year which claimed Americans "probably no longer have the intellectual capital that can profit from the available educational resources."[9] In 1994 he was one of 52 signatories on "Mainstream Science on Intelligence,[10]" an editorial written by Linda Gottfredson and published in the Wall Street Journal, which declared the consensus of researchers in intelligence and related fields following the publication of the book The Bell Curve.
Itzkoff, who is an advocate of eugenics, wrote the preface to John Glad's 2008 book, Future Human Evolution: Eugenics in the Twenty-First Century, in which he states, "The real history of eugenics, as Dr. Glad points out, is rich in a truly liberal vision for the improvement in the state of all of humankind."[11]
Itzkoff has published works on Jewish identity and Jewish intelligence, as well as books outlining his predictions about 21st-century global crises and his recommended responses. He has also written about music, including a biography of cellist Emanuel Feuermann.

Greece Bareboat - Need recommendations on regions and charter companies
You could charter a boat in Pireaus which is beside Athens. Take the train from Athens directly to where the ferries and charter boats lay. Travel thru the Corinth Canal, an amazing historical feat all on its own and head west to The Ionian Islands, there you have Kefalonia, Zakinthos, Lefkada, and to the north is Corfu. That's all good for a month or a year, take your pick. If you head out from Pireaus into the Aegean Sea you have your pick of 2000 Islands. The Ionian Islands are very Med and the Aegean are drier and more desert like. Beware of the intense Northerlys, make sure you have good protection from the wind when setting the hook for the night. Wherever you go it's ancient and historical, and you will find ruins everywhere. Mykonos is full of haywire party goers but safe, be aware of the northern exposed harbour. Some harbours have submerged ancient ruins and the obvious easy way in is not sometimes the best way. Check your charts or plotter. We live here in Greece, we believe this to be one of the premier cruising areas! Have fun, Dave

Exporters say that buyers have reported a 50 per cent fall in sale
Shrimp is the largest seafood export to the U.S.
Not a major crisis, says exporters' association
KOLLAM: The seafood industry in the State has started feeling the pinch of the financial crisis in the United States.
Seafood exporters said that buyers in the United States had reported a 50 per cent fall in the sale of seafood imports, considered a luxury item in that country.
The U.S. buyers had accordingly reduced orders from India. Shrimp is the largest seafood export from India to the U.S. Leading seafood exporter George K. Ninan of the Kochi-based Baby Marine group, told The Hindu that the export sector began feeling the pinch of the crisis since the past three weeks. But things had not gone to a crisis for the sector. According to Sandu Joseph, secretary, Seafood Exporters Association of India, though there was a drop in purchases from the U.S., it was not going to create any crisis for the seafood industry here. This was because the U.S. was not a major buyer from India in terms of both value and quantity. But those among the 69 seafood exporters in the country who depended mainly upon the U.S. could be affected. Mr. Ninan said that only a section of the exporters depended on purchases from the U.S.
Seafood exports to the U.S. had been going down since the past three or four years mainly due to the anti-dumping laws of that country. As a result of this the European Union had emerged as the biggest seafood buyer from India both in terms of quantity and value that stands at 28 per cent and 34 per cent respectively. Quantity-wise, only seven per cent of the seafood exports from India went to the U.S. and in terms value it was 13 per cent of the seafood export earnings, Mr. Joseph said.
He said in order to overcome the loss from the U.S., the seafood industry here had many potential markets that had not been tapped. The reason for this was that stock produced was only sufficient enough to meet the demands from traditional markets. The potential markets that had not been tapped included Russia, South Africa and Australia. He said the Indian seafood export industry was capable enough to remain very healthy even if exports to the U.S. came down to nil if the untapped markets were properly exploited.

Charges of rioting and promoting enmity between different groups in Ayodhya are among the 13 cases pending against firebrand BJP leader and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Uma Bharti, the party's candidate for this Lok Sabha seat.
As to her financial status, Bharti has declared assets worth Rs 1.43 crore -- movable property of Rs 46.26 lakh and immovable assets worth Rs 97.50 lakh. She has declared cash in hand of Rs 2.5 lakh in her affidavit filed with Election Commission while submitting her nomination papers. Her affidavit states that she does not own a car or any other vehicle.
Bharti, who is also a former Union minister, was named in an FIR registered in 1992 at the Ram Janmabhoomi Ayodhya police station in Uttar Pradesh's Faizabad district, according to the affidavit. The 55-year-old Bharti is facing charges under Sections 147 (rioting), 149 (unlawful assembly), 153A (promoting enmity between different groups), 153B (imputations, assertions prejudicial to national integration) and 505 (statements intended to cause public mischief) of Indian Penal Code.
A special court in Rae Bareli took cognisance of the case on July 28, 2005, while it had framed charges against her on September 19, 2003. The proceedings in this particular case have not been stayed by competent courts, her affidavit states. Apart from the above, 12 other cases are registered against Bharti at various police stations in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh involving charges of attempt to murder, defamation, rioting, obscene acts and songs and wrongful restraint, among others, the affidavit adds.
However, the proceedings in three cases registered against Bharti in Uttar Pradesh's Mahoba area have been stayed by Allahabad High Court. The charges in these cases pertain to assault or use of criminal force to deter a public servant from discharging his duty and disobedience to order promulgated by a public servant (Sections 353 and 188 of IPC, respectively). Bharti is currently an MLA from the Mahoba Assembly constituency.
On the other hand, the Madhya Pradesh government has moved court for closure of five cases against the BJP leader.
These cases involve charges of attempt to murder and making obscene acts and songs (Sections 307 and 294 of IPC), among others, and were registered by police in 2006 in the Bada Malhara area in Chhatarpur district of MP, the affidavit said. Bharti is facing Congress's Pradeep Kumar Jain, the sitting MP and also the Union Minister of State for Rural Development, in the battle for the Jhansi seat, which will go to polls on April 30.
Also in the fray against her are BSP's Anuradha Sharma and SP's Chandrapal Singh Yadav.

Our flight changed from direct to having to change equipment in NC and we had been assigned seats in different rows. The gate agent helped us get seats together and we were in the bulkhead! I was excited for the legroom, but my husband, who is a wide man, was very, very unhappy with the width of the seats. I don't know if it's a bulkhead thing or if we would have had the same issue in another part of the plane. The staff was nice and helpful, but the seats were ridiculously narrow.

Re: Question regarding Rocna Anchor's Roll Bar
chef2sail, would you mind elaborating? How things "feel" or "look" to you when you're anchoring and anchored in blows? Can you or your boat feel any very definite differences between your old CQR and the Rocna? Do you feel, for example, a significantly more robust bite when you place your hand on your chain, feel the boat come 'round or stop much more abruptly with the Rocna?
I looked one over again on the docks today and even felt it over :-0

The Supreme Court ruled that farmers must pay Monsanto every time they plant the company's genetically modified soybeans. Indiana farmer Vernon Hugh Bowman argued he was not violating the patent because the soybeans self-replicate. The justices felt "Bowman's practices threatened the incentive for invention that is at the heart of patent law." Bowman was ordered to pay $85,000 to Monsato. This case could have broader implication on patent protections for vaccines and other products that self-replicate. The Washington Post reports:
If someone is able to copy a patented product simply by planting it and collecting its progeny, "a patent would plummet in value after the first sale of the first item containing the invention," Justice Elena Kagan wrote. "And that would result in less incentive for innovation than Congress wanted."

text: It's The Shining at sea in the made-for-cable paranormal thriller The Triangle. The story opens in the Caribbean, where Stu (Luke Perry), a shady lawyer, has chartered a boat captained by Louis Morgan (Dorian Harewood) for a fishing excursion. Accompanying Stu are his "trophy" girlfriend Julia (Polly Shannon), his best friend Tommy (Dan Cortese), and Capt. Morgan's attractive First Mate (Olivia D'Abo). Swept into the Bermuda Triangle by inclement weather, the five seafarers are greeted with the daunting vision of a huge, deserted ocean liner: the Queen of Scots, which disappeared in 1939. Climbing on board the liner to investigate, Stu and his comrades find themselves at the mercy of an unfriendly spirit: the ghost of a legendary movie star who had gone on a murderous rampage on the night that the Queen of Scots vanished without a trace. Lensed on location in Barbados and Toronto, The Triangle premiered August 12, 2001, on WTBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Election Commission (EC) on Monday accepted the request of Congress vice-president and Lok Sabha MP Rahul Gandhi for more time to reply to its show-cause notice on poll code violation. Now, he has to send his reply before 11 a.m. on Friday (November 8).
Mr. Gandhi had sought one week's time for sending his reply (original deadline was 11.30 a.m. on November 4) since there were holidays in view of Diwali. Moreover, he had received the EC's notice only at 9.30 p.m. on October 31 and had no time to consult his lawyers.
He also referred to prior travel commitments. Mr. Gandhi was issued notice, dated October 31, by the Commission for his alleged remark that Pakistan's ISI was in touch with relatives of Muzaffarnagar riot victims. He also charged the BJP with indulging in politics of hatred.
The notice was issued based on the BJP's complaints and after watching the CDs of his alleged speeches made at Churu, Rajasthan, on October 23 and Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on October 24.
