Audi "coup" by Thjnk
Rating: 5.0
By Louise Ridley, campaignlive.co.uk, Monday, 18 November 2013 03:50PM
The "surprising numbers" billboards explain how more people than ever before are winning with National Lottery scratchcards, according to Camelot.
The geo-targeted boards reveal the number of people in the UK who are expected to become scratchcard winners before the next train departs, using data from National Rail and Transport for London, cross-referenced with scratchcard data.
They feature an image of people forming a "human counter' that displays data on their T-shirts.
Commuters will see messages tailored to their location and the next departing train, such as, "Winners before the 09:05 to Norwich leaves? 1,562."
The campaign was planned and bought by OMD UK, Havas Media and Talon, with production and technology by Grand Visual.
The train data is syndicated using OpenLoop, the digital out-of-home campaign management system. It pulls in train data before contextualising messages for each individual site and pushing them live to the billboards.
Max Lucas, a media strategy manager at Camelot, said: "Clever use of digital out-of-home technology has really brought this campaign to life.
"We have been able to use our data in a unique way, serving up dynamic, targeted, locally-relevant messages that let people know there are more National Lottery Scratchcard winners than ever."
The messages will run across screens at rail stations and on the London Underground.
Jeremy Taylor, an account director at Grand Visual, said: "The key feature of this campaign is the delivery of contextual information that people can relate to. It is a great example of intelligent use of the medium – providing a dynamic, national outdoor campaign that is highly targeted and locally relevant."
The digital out of home activity is part of a broader drive that includes TV and press.
Additional contextual messages will run on supporting screens along key commuter routes, and on large screens in city centres.
In September, the National Lottery relaunched its revamped flagship Lotto game with an advertising campaign created by Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, featuring a cover of the 1972 song 'Ooh-wakka-doo-wakka-day' by Gilbert O'Sullivan with new lyrics.

Select Local Merchants
ARC Insulation IncRead MoreThe team at ARC Insulation Inc don't just come into homes and add insulation left and right. Their approach is scientific. First, they do a visual inspection of the house, then using a blower door & infrared camera, they pinpoint cold spots where air is leaking in and warm spots where your thermos is hiding. From this information, they know exactly where to direct their super-efficient spray foam and cellulose insulation, which seals up leaks and leaves homes snug and efficient.29 Forestwood Ct Ste 1Romeoville, IL US
American MattressRead MoreFor more than two decades, American Mattress has promoted peaceful slumber in bedchambers throughout the Midwest with their vast selection of mattresses, headboards, and linens. The sleep experts strive to stay abreast of the latest bedding technology: their Serta mattresses are made with gel foam that supports curves, and Tempur-Pedic mattresses repel allergens, mites, and poltergeists looking to spoon. This devotion to a good night's sleep has helped them earn the title of Best Mattress Store from suburban Chicago's Daily Herald five years in a row. Additionally, American Mattress doubles down on each of its beds with a 30-day comfort guarantee and a 60-day best-price guarantee.220 North Weber RoadBolingbrook, IL US

Tempur-Pedic, Stearns & Foster, and Simmons Beautyrest mattresses await rigorous testing at each of their show rooms, where sleep-savvy employees can help shoppers determine if they're more suited to a firm or soft mattress or to creamy or chunky peanut butter. Back to Bed also induces relaxation in a nonhorizontal form with a selection of plush massage recliners and Human Touch's Perfect Chair, which cradles bodies in a muscularly neutral position.145 N Weber RdBolingbrook, IL US

Disguise trapdoor entrances to vampire sleeping spaces with 3/4-inch solid-oak planks ($3.59/sq. ft.) to prevent nosy houseguests from disturbing an undead roommate?s daytime nap. Or opt to cover kitchen floors with durable, low-maintenance Terra Stone vinyl tile ($2.99/sq. ft.) or Allure Foundation laminate flooring ($1.59/sq. ft.), which provide a sturdy stage for impromptu break-dance competitions. Appalachian Trail broadloom carpeting ($2.49/sq. ft.) adds cushion to rough foot highways, and random-length linear glass-mosaic tiles ($11.98/sq. ft.) add a pop of color to barren backsplashes and bathrooms.

Custom Cleaning ServiceRead MoreSome tasks just shouldn't be performed standing up. At least that's what the folks at Custom Cleaning Service believe, going so far as to promise to get down to grime-level when they're scouring floors and disinfecting bathrooms by hand. This commitment to focused cleaning extends to all their tasks; they keep a specialty brush reserved just for toilets, they use specialty Dyson vacuums to decrease allergies and asthma, and they deploy non-toxic cleaning solutions to keep interior air breathable and window panes lickable. Abiding by a patented 21-point cleaning system, the trained and uniformed maids keep to a reliable regimen that homeowners can tweak to their own needs.468 Mallview LaneBolingbrook, IL US

They'll brave ladders to clean gutters and windows. They'll even haul away garbage and provide lawn care so that every blade of grass is as even as Walt Whitman's whiskers.Mobilebolingbrook, IL US

California is the facing a new challenge: getting young adults to enroll in the Affordable Care Act. More than 2 million Californians, ages 19 to 34, are uninsured. Getting these individuals enrolled is crucial to balancing the cost of older, sicker patients. The state is developing media strategies to specifically target young adults and encourage to them buy insurance. The Los Angeles Times reports:
The success of the healthcare law "depends on reaching everyone who is uninsured, but particularly young people who may feel like they don't need insurance," said Larry Levitt, a senior vice president at the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Stockholm, 14 December 2012
Delivered by Mr. Charles Radcliffe, Chief of Global Issues, Office of the High Commissioner of Human Rights
This week, we celebrate the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which proclaimed in its first Article, "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights." It bears repeating: All human beings – not some, not most, but all. No one gets to decide who is entitled to human rights, and who is not.
The past six decades have seen huge advances for many historically marginalized groups and people, including women, racial minorities and persons with disabilities. But around the world, far too many lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people continue to face discrimination, and many States have done far too little to address the problem.
In almost 80 countries, LGBT persons are still criminalized for who they are, how they look or whom they love. In many more they are subjected to bias and physical attacks. Rather than challenging prejudice, too many Governments yield to it.
I am profoundly concerned about the persistence of homophobia. Those who are LGBT and intersex are entitled to the same rights as everyone else. They too were born free and equal.
Despite the serious problems, there are grounds for hope. Recent years have seen many governments introduce measures to tackle hate crimes, sensitize State officials and provide legal recourse to victims. After decades of denial, many States recognize that discrimination against individuals based on their sexual orientation and gender identity is a serious human rights challenge.
We have seen extraordinary shifts in social attitudes in many parts of the world. The tide is starting to turn, thanks in no small part to the efforts of all of you and your partners on the ground. Just three days ago at United Nations Headquarters in New York we held a meeting on leadership in the fight against homophobia. Yvonne Chaka Chaka, the global singing star from South Africa, told participants, "You can't just accept equality for some but then withhold it from others because you disagree with them or you disapprove of them. Equality is equality for all or it isn't equality at all." I fully agree.
Your role as human rights defenders is more important than ever. The United Nations stands with you as you highlight ongoing abuses, dispel prejudice and insist on nothing short of freedom and equality for all.
I wish you productive discussions in Stockholm and every success in your critical work.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court found that the legislature's delegation to the state agency was reasonable. The delegation set reasonable limits on the scope of the agency's power in crafting the specific prohibitions of chain distributor systems.

The Department of Agriculture did in fact stay within its delegated authority in crafting the rules prohibiting chain distributor systems, making the rule constitutional.

Daddy (original 1987; edition 1996)
by Loup Durand
Work details
Daddy by Loup Durand (1987)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Translated from the french version, hard to get your hands on, but worth the effort to find it -- DADDY by Loup Durand. This strangely-titled book is a thriller set in the 1940's. Thomas, an exceptional 11-year old, holds the complicated codes to 724 Swiss bank accounts. The Nazis want him -- badly. Their operative is a sadistic, highly intelligent Gestapo chief. His mission is to kidnap the child and force him to give over the codes. Although there is plenty of action in this novel, the plot expands like a carefully played psychological chess game between the depraved military man and the young genius, and the stakes are Life and Death. Recommended.
If you like stories about supermen this is the book for you.Three characters have genius IQ's One is a perfect,never miss shot--he also is always at the protagonist's side but never seen..the evil German would be kidnapper is one of the geniuses and each of his actions is spoiled only by the ineptness of his aides. Characters have immense fortunes at their disposal and connections at the highest levels in Swiss banking circles, in Germany's highcommand and in American International Business and Banking. A 12 year old boy with a granite like memory has memorized the account numbers and addresses of thousads of Jewish Germans and must be protected from capture...If this is your type of book, you won't find better.

Pokémon Campaign is a Flash game set in the Pokémon world, but allows for open-world exploration and real-time combat. Catch and level Pokémon, explore new areas, and take on missions in the all-new Campo Region!
0 comments by Lon_Gwang on Jun 5th, 2014
It's been a long while since I updated this page, but rest assured, I haven't forgotten about Campaign! University life, as well as other commitments, have kept me from putting the finishing touches on Pokémon Campaign, but I'm back now! You can expect a Summer 2014 release for the final product. For real this time.
Also, with this restarted development time, I've decided to open up a facebook page! Facebook.com
Be sure to check that for future updates, or just monitor this IndieDB page.
And remember you can always play the latest demo on Newgrounds, and check that for the full release: Newgrounds.com
Smell ya later,
i cant wait
Google Translate tells me that that's Portuguese for "cool how to play the whole game only have the demo."
The finished game isn't out yet, but it should be within the next few months. School and other commitments have really been occupying me these last three months, but once things slow down, I should be able to finish Campaign pretty quickly.
That's unfortunate, but the WASD control scheme works best for Campaign since the other hotkeys (1-6, X, C, and Spacebar) are far more easily reached from WASD when you have one hand on the mouse. Maybe you should invest in a Grass-type keyboard, or maybe one with the Water Absorb ability.
Is it online?
Demo 0.3 is available on Newgrounds, yes, if that's what you meant. Here's the link if you missed it: Newgrounds.com
The game is single-player, though, and has no online functionality.

Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I just swaped a 2012 BMW 550i xDrive for a 2012 RL with tech package. Yes, the engine on the Acura does not match that of the BMW. However I got $7K in cash back and have a reliable car with 11K fewer miles (I owned my BMW outright). My 550 has had all 8 fuel injectors and the alternator replaced. This would have cost $10k if out of warranty. The battery also died after just 2.5 years. In terms of features the Acura has cooled seats and rear sunshades as well as a stereo that is better than the best I could get on the 2012 BMW. It does however, lack a heated steering wheel, self-closing doors, and the automatic trunk.
Overall I am happy to trade the BMW for the Acura. The RL may not be the most prestigious car but I have no need to impress other folks with my car. I am happy to have a comfortable, well-equipped car while at the same time be able to save even more money than I already have been saving.

Armenia accuses Turkey of 'utter denial' on genocide after Ankara offers condolences
Published on Apr 24, 2014 6:04 PM
YEREVAN (AFP) - Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian on Thursday accused Turkey of an "utter denial" in failing to recognise World War I mass killings of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as a genocide, after Ankara for the first time offered condolences for the tragedy.
"The Armenian Genocide... is alive as far as the successor of the Ottoman Turkey continues its policy of utter denial," Mr Sarkisian said in a statement marking the 99th anniversary of the massacres.
"The denial of a crime constitutes the direct continuation of that very crime," he added. "Only recognition and condemnation can prevent the repetition of such crimes in the future." He said the looming 100th anniversary offered "Turkey a good chance to repent and to set aside the historical stigma in case if they make efforts to set free their state's future from this heavy burden."
In an unprecedented move by a Turkish leader, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday offered condolences over the massacres, calling them "our shared pain." He also stressed that the events of 1915 "should not prevent Turks and Armenians from establishing compassion and mutually humane attitudes towards one another." Using both diplomatic levers and its influential diaspora abroad, Armenia has long sought to win the massacre's international recognition as a genocide.

Beyoncé made headlines after PepsiCo Inc. hired the diva to endorse the soda company in a multi-year deal for an estimated $50 million.

They just wanted Beyoncé to turn Pepsi into Pépsi.
But was it worth it?
According to second quarter sales for PepsiCo Inc., it had a North American decline in sales in the "mid-single digits," i.e., anywhere from four to seven percent. For a multi-billion dollar brand, that's a significant amount of money.
It's an ongoing trend for the soda beverage market in general. Americans, becoming more health-conscious, have been steering away from the sugary drinks towards more bottled waters, teas, and energy drinks.
What sets Pepsi apart from the competition (Coca-Cola and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc. also reported declining sales), is its lucrative marketing dollars and revamped campaigns in recent years. Not even throwing $50 million at Beyoncé, even when she's hit her final Super Saiyan form, can keep the company from slipping. If she can't save you, then who can?
If there's a silver lining, at least they have Bey on payroll to sing the beverage off the premises. Pepsi, to the left, to the left, everything you own in the box to the left…


text: Yesterday (05/02), marked the first actual day of recording for 36 Crazyfists. Yes, we previously said that May 1st was the first day, but after speaking with vocalist Brock Lindow, we stand corrected! Anyway, for the next nine days, 36 Crazyfists will be held up at Millbrook Studios with the distinct purpose of laying down all the drum tracks for their upcoming debut release Bitterness The Star. It is possible that some bass and guitar tracks will be laid down too, but drums is the focus right now. Yesterday things started up for the band at 3pm and wrapped up around 2am. The first day brought about finished drum tracks for a song entitled "Slit Wrist Theory". Today they will look to nail down the drum tracks for another 3 songs. more updates to come... oh, and if you have a question to ask 36 Crazyfists, email it to [email protected]. Make sure to write "36 Crazyfists" in the subject line of your email. (15 GOOD questions will be taken to the band for answering this weekend)

Accused Drug Smuggler Just Wanted Clean Hair
By editor
Neil Parry was arrested at an airport in Darwin, Australia, and was accused of stuffing drugs into bottles of shampoo. Parry spent three days in jail, but has now received $100,000 in compensation. Testing of the bottles of Pantene shampoo and conditioner showed they actually contained: just shampoo and conditioner.

ClassicsOnline Home » RYBA: 2 String Quartets / 2 Flute Quartets
Jakub Jan Ryba was a prolific composer of both sacred and secular music. The majority of his orchestral and instrumental music has been lost and of his quartets, which numbered 72, only the four on this recording appear to have survived. These are charming and inventive works which show the influence of Ryba's contemporaries, such as Vaňhal and Mysliveček, as well as Haydn and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. The String Quartet in D minor begins with a moving Adagio that recalls Mozart's Dissonance Quartet, while the final Scherzo even suggests Mendelssohn.

Since I have seen diaries speculating on the 2014 Kentucky Senate race, and since we know that Illinois Senator Dick Durbin, the Democratic Majority Whip, is on the so-called "Gang of Eight" on reducing the deficit, I figure that we ought to be ready to primary him if he does vote yes to ANY Simpson-Bowles style Grand Bargain or have a viable replacement for him if Durbin decides to retire as it has been rumored.
Last summer, the NBC affiliate in Chicago had a blog post stating that friends of Durbin had said that he might retire in 2014. The blog post named potential successors (it looked at both Democrats and Republicans) but since Illinois is a solidly blue state and 2010 had bad circumstances, a Tea Party wave and a really bad Democratic candidate, I don't see 2014 as having any GOP pickup potential for that seat even if Durbin retires or is primaried out for voting yes on a Grand Bargain betrayal.
The first name that comes up is Dan Hynes who is 44, and was Illinois Comptroller from 1999-2011. Hynes finished 2nd to Barack Obama in 2004 in the Democratic primary and barely lost in 2010 in primary against the current Illinois governor Pat Quinn. By checking VoteSmart and his public statements when he was running for governor in 2010, Hynes is pro-choice, pro-LGBT, wants to reduce greenhouse gases but believes in "clean coal". For the record, there is no such thing as "clean coal". I cannot seem to find any recent position on earned benefits, but one of the things he was running on in 2010 was proper Medicaid funding.
Another contender is David Hoffman, who lost to that really bad Senate candidate in 2010. Hoffman is a former prosecutor and was Inspector General for Chicago. From his background, I don't see Hoffman playing nice with the banksters. Looking over a diary from 2010 on Hoffman in that primary, Hoffman is quite progressive. Very pro-LGBT, strongly pro-choice and had progressive stances on Afghanistan. Overall I like Hoffman on issues but I think that losing to a bad candidate in a primary doesn't say much about his ability to campaign.
Another name is Toni Preckwinkle, who is the Cook County Board President. She's currently 65. Preckwinkle supports living wages, for gun control. Preckwinkle has a long history with Obama as one of his early supporters when Obama was running for state office. A New Yorker article noted that she had concerns about Obama being "disloyal" to progressives. Preckwinkle already said no to running for governor in 2014so she may not want to run for Senate either. But it be would see to see a progressive, African-American woman in there. Of course, it might be challenge for her to get downstate votes.
Another female candidate could be Sheila Simon, daughter of the former Illinois Senator. As the Lt. Governor, she may be dragged down by Quinn's unpopularity. Simon is pro-choice, and preventing domestic violence is a big issue with her from judging some of the VoteSmart public statements. Simon could be a great candidate for downstate but she might be dragged down by Quinn.
Yet another potential candidate is Kwame Raoul. Raoul is a State Senator who was appointed to fill Obama's seat when Obama won his Senate race in 2004. Raoul has helped expand early voting and has enacted numerous progressive policies. Checking VoteSmart, voted yes to Smart Grid Technology, voted yes to limiting artificial trans fats and voted yes to Medical Cannabis. Among the ratings on issues: in 2007, the Illlinois LCV(League of Conservation Voters) gave Raoul a 67% rating, the NRA has consistently given him a 0% or an F(The NRA is of course a Republican interest group), the Illinois AFL-CIO has consistenly given him ratings of over 90% and in 2011, gave him a positions rating of 100%. Raoul would be a great candidate for 2014 IMHO
The last one mentioned by that article was Jan Schakowsky Schakowsky is a progressive Congressperson who has been in Congress since 1999. Nobody would doubt her progressive cred. She opposed the war in Iraq, and she supports single payer. The article said she would be too liberal for a statewide election, but I would feel relieved if she were the nominee since I don't see her supporting any Simpson-Bowles bullshit.
I will also add a few other possible names too:
Maria Antonia "Toni" Berrios: Was the first Puerto Rican woman to serve in the Illinois House. She's still young(35) but a female Latina nominee for Senate would be quite awesome.
Iris Martinez would be another good choice. She's 56 and was the first Latina elected to the Illinois State Senate. She is the Assistent Majority Leader in the State Senate and would be quite qualified to be a U.S Senator.
Of course, I would like to hear from Kossacks in Illinois that have a better feel for their state. Please correct me or feel free to add your own potential Senate candidates.
6:11 PM PT: I should add that I hope that I am wrong here and Dick Durbin ultimately rejects a Grand Bargain that reduces earned benefits. I also understand that this is more hypothetical, and I am just looking at candidates more in case Durbin retires.
Durbin has had a very good progressive record and I am disappointed that he has seemed to be with the Simpson-Bowles phony Democrats.
6:46 PM PT: by the way, I will acknowledge that Durbin has a great voting record (hat tip to Skipbidder)
And following the criticisms of JeffW and psilocynic, I will focus more of my energy regarding Durbin trying to change his mind now rather than talk about primarying him. I am very open to suggestions from my fellow Kossacks as to where Daily Kos can apply pressure to Durbin to preserve our earned benefits and reject the Simpson-Bowles worthless garbage.

Alabama: The Tide has become a factory for special linebackers with a corps full of NFL players who can do it all. By design, the Alabama linebackers are supposed to be the stars, roaming free with the front three doing its job holding up against the run. This group has limitless range and doesn't miss tackles. Ever.
Junior Dont'a Hightower is a First-Team All-SEC performance in the middle, leading the team with 81 tackles with three sacks and 9.5 tackles for loss. At 6-4 and 260 pounds he's huge, fast, and tough in the middle of the linebacking corps with phenomenal range and peerless leadership ability. Backing him up is one of the nation's top prospects coming into the season, 6-2, 242-pound Trey DePriest, who made 23 tackles in a reserve role. He's the next star.
Hightower is the leader and the main man for the group, but Courtney Upshaw is more disruptive. Part outside linebacker and part defensive end in the JACK role, he's a 6-2, 265-pound pass rusher who led the team with 8.5 sacks and 17 tackles for loss and 45 stops. He came up with the team's lone sack in the first game.
Working on the strongside is 6-3, 242-pound senior Jerrell Harris, who made 22 tackles as a jack-of-all-traded defender doing a little of everything where needed. 6-3, 245-pound junior Nico Johnson is an imposing athlete on the weakside finishing fourth on the team with 43 tackles and 5.5 tackles for loss with 11 stops in the first game. He works in combination with sophomore C.J. Mosley, a very fast, very athletic 6-2, 234-pounder who made 36 tackles on the year.
LSU: By far, this was the team's biggest X factor coming into the season. The quarterback situation was a concern, but linebacker experience was a problem at some spots after losing top tackler and leader Kelvin Sheppard. Helped by a big year from the defensive front, everything turned out to be solid. The line might be the rock, and the secondary might have the stars, but the LSU linebackers did their job.
Senior Ryan Baker earned Second-Team All-SEC honors on the weakside, after there was some talk of moving the 6-0, 236-pounder to the middle to replace Sheppard. A great student of the game with tremendous quickness, he uses it all for a punishing style that led the linebacking corps with 58 tackles.
Baker is the tough-as-nails playmaker on the outside, while 6-1, 223-pound senior Stefoin Francois and 6-2, 205-pound sophomore Tajh Jones will combine on the strongside. Francois has 11 stops on the year, but he brings experience and steadiness to the spot. Jones has been the better option with 24 tackles, but he's built like an extra safety and is used more for his speed and quickness. Francois is fast, but the defense really moves when Jones is in.
6-2, 242-pound sophomore Kevin Minter is the biggest linebacker option, making 56 tackles in the middle. The Georgia native is one of the physically strongest players on the roster after bulking up over the last year, and now he's a pure run stuffer who cleans everything up on the inside. Minter has been great, and 6-2, 223-pound backup Kamell Hatcher has been a more-than-solid fill-in, making 23 tackles after moving over from the secondary. Considering his athleticism and quickness, he hasn't been doing much to get into the backfield, but he can move.
ADVANTAGE: Alabama. LSU has a productive rotation full of elite athletes who can all move and can all swarm around the ball, but Bama's stars are true difference-makers. The focus of the LSU defense is in the big-tackling, big play secondary, while the Tide gets big plays from Hightower, Upshaw and the rest of a corps that swallows up everything against the run. Both weakside linebackers – Johnson and Baker – were the most productive defenders in the first game, and they should be effective again.

Ambassador Misquoted, Not Misunderstood
Why Gutman should still get the boot for 'anti-Semitism' comments
I made a mistake yesterday in attributing the following quote to Howard Gutman, the U.S. ambassador to Belgium: that there is a difference between traditional anti-Semitism and "Muslim hatred for Jews, which stems from the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinians." It was a misquote that found its way from a Ynet paraphrase to a Haaretz article. A look at Gutman's prepared remarks reveals he actually referred to a "problem within Europe of tension, hatred and sometimes even violence between some members of Muslim communities or Arab immigrant groups and Jews. It is a tension and perhaps hatred largely born of and reflecting the tension between Israel, the Palestinian Territories and neighboring Arab states in the Middle East over the continuing Israeli-Palestinian problem." This problem, he noted—distinguishing it from traditional anti-Semitism—"is more complex and requiring much more thought and analysis."
So I apologize for that. But I still think this sort of talk is unacceptable, certainly politically and also rhetorically. The defenses are that, first, Gutman is right, and second, that he is still condemning both forms of anti-Semitism. So, according to the Forward's J.J. Goldberg and Friend-of-The-Scroll Justin Elliott at Salon, Gutman's analysis echoes others that have found rising anti-Semitism in response to Israel's existence and specific Israeli policies, such as Operation Cast Lead and the flotilla fiasco. According to the Economist, Gutman simply stated the "bleeding obvious."
But the problem is not the accuracy of Gutman's forensic description; it is his subsequent prescription as well as his being the bearer of it. "The largest part of the solution remains in the hands of government leaders in Israel and the Palestinian territories and Arab countries in the Middle East," Gutman said. Whether or not that's the equivalent of making an excuse for this second kind of anti-Semitism—which is at least debatable—this sentiment should be abhorrent to diaspora Jews. We are being told not only that our safety and security in our adopted countries is dependent on Israel's actions, but that this is simply the state of things, them's the breaks, and the U.S. government is okay with it. This placing of Israel at the center of the Jewish universe is the cousin of an ad campaign that tells Israelis that they are not at home outside Israel. And it's the sibling of the anti-Semitic belief that Jews everywhere are complicit in Israeli actions. Faced with the fact that Israeli actions exacerbate European anti-Semitism, the responsible thing is to try to fight that linkage, not acquiesce to it. And as an agent of the U.S. government, for Gutman to take this stand is that much more important.
Which leads me to the most obvious point: you are an Obama bundler who is the ambassador to freakin' Belgium. Your number one job is not to make trouble for the president, your boss, in an election year. I don't see how you can argue that, in this, Gutman hasn't failed miserably. This isn't The West Wing (or, more to the point, it's tolerating stuff like this that made the Bartlet administration so ineffectual). Given that, the White House's decision to stand by him cannot help but suggest not only that they agree with what he said but, more, consider his right to theorize about these things to some conference to be more important than getting re-elected. I wrote yesterday that incidents such as this one make questions about where the administration's heart lies on Israel valid. That was not a mistake.

Cleveland Browns president resigns
January 3, 2006
NEW YORK (Reuters) – Cleveland Browns president and chief
executive officer John Collins has resigned, the club announced
Team owner Randy Lerner said he would assume Collins'

Phil Savage would remain in position.
The franchise had been in turmoil since reports surfaced
last week that Savage would be fired.

work together so he decided to make the change, a source told
the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The Browns were 6-10 this season, tied with Baltimore for
last place in the AFC North Division.

RedStorm suffer sweep at hands of Georgetown College
March 26, 2011By Mark Williams of University of Rio Grande
Rio Grande --- The University of Rio Grande RedStorm baseball team, ranked No. 25 in the NAIA preseason Top 25 rating, dropped both games of a doubleheader on Saturday afternoon to visiting Georgetown College, 5-0 and 9-1. The Tigers swept the RedStorm in the four-game weekend series.
Rio Grande (19-16, 7-7 MSC E) struggled to muster any offense for the second straight day as the RedStorm had a grand total of six hits in the doubleheader.
Georgetown College (20-15, 10-6 MSC W) scored two runs in the third inning and that would be all it would need in game one to collect the victory.
Sophomore righthander Eric Ford (Chagrin Falls, OH) suffered his second consecutive loss. Ford (3-2) pitched 6 1/3 innings, scattering seven hits and allowing five runs (two earned) with two strikeouts and two walks.
Ford was not helped much by his defense as Rio committed four errors in the first game.
Senior rightfielder Michael Lynch (Cleveland, OH) led the Rio offense, going 2-for-4. Senior first baseman Francisco Ramirez (Columbus, OH) was 1-for-2 with a double. Freshman leftfielder Michael Shroyer (Pataskala, OH) and senior centerfielder Ryan Weaver (Baltimore, OH) had the other hits for the RedStorm.
Randy Guite led the way for the Tigers, going 2-for-2 with two RBI's. Tyler Fisher and Tyler Back also delivered RBI hits for Georgetown.
K.C. Massie went the distance for the victory for Georgetown
Georgetown put the game away early in game two, scoring four times off Rio starter Jesse Brown (Mt. Pleasant, NC) in the opening inning. Brown (2-2) did not retire a batter in the game.
The Tigers would add three unearned runs off freshman David Steele (Kettering, OH) in 4 2/3 innings and two more runs off junior Richard Hernandez (Beavercreek, OH).
The Rio offense had only hit in the game, a run-scoring single off the bat of senior designated hitter Dominick McAllister (Columbus, OH) in the fourth inning. The run cut the deficit to 5-1 at the time.
Chris Wood led Georgetown with a 3-for-4 effort at the plate and two RBI's with a run scored. Guite was 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI.
Back and Brian Smith also notched RBI hits for the Tigers.
Joe Devine picked up the complete game victory for Georgetown in the second game.
Rio Grande head coach Brad Warnimont was disappointed in how the series turned out for his ball club. "When you have nine hits in four ball games you're not going to beat many people," Warnimont said. "I continue to emphasize with our guys the importance of the short game and I think (Georgetown) had 10 hits in that second game and seven of them didn't get out of the infield. We had no execution; we had the same amount of home runs in the series, which was zero that we had bunts for hits."
"They came in and we couldn't shut down they're short game, we couldn't defend," Warnimont added. "In three of the four games, I think we had more errors than hits and you're not going to win many ball games doing that."
"They had a plan, they stuck with it and it paid off for them," said Warnimont.
Rio Grande will step out of conference for a doubleheader with Salem International at home on Tuesday (March 29). First pitch is set for 1 p.m. Stretch Internet will have play-by-play coverage beginning at 12:55 p.m.

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRNE; Sorrento) announced today the entry into a definitive agreement to acquire San Diego-based Concortis Biosystems, Corp. in a deal that provides Sorrento with a comprehensive technology platform for generation of antibody drug conjugates (ADC). Under the terms of the agreement dated November 11, 2013, subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, upon closing, Sorrento will issue an aggregate of 1,331,978 shares of its common stock to the Concortis shareholders.
This acquisition will enable Sorrento to utilize the antibodies identified from its G-MAB® library along with Concortis' conjugation technologies and novel toxins to create a new generation of ADCs. Concortis' proprietary C-lock™ and K-lock™ conjugation chemistries enable site-specific conjugation of toxins to the antibody, which will produce homogeneous ADCs with well-defined drug antibody ratios (DAR). In contrast, approved ADCs are a heterogeneous mixture with different DARs. This could potentially lead to better ADC stability and pharmacokinetics while reducing off-target effects compared to existing ADCs and therefore, improved therapeutic efficacy and treatment safety.
"This is a transformational event for Sorrento as very few companies have the breadth of capabilities covering all facets of ADC technology, including the antibodies, the conjugation chemistries, and the toxins," said Henry Ji, Ph.D., President and CEO of Sorrento. "We are in an ideal position to become a leading player in this important and rapidly growing field. This also opens up new opportunities for strategic alliances."
As part of the transaction, upon the closing, David (Zhenwei) Miao, Ph

Board Report: The October Board Meeting
Producer Profile: Vermont Valley Community Farm
Alternative Thankgiving Celebrations
Recipes & Drink Recommendations
by Anya Firszt, General Manager
Traditionally the Co-op has a regular business year, 4 quarters or 52/53 weeks, to conduct business. However, last year the membership voted to change the fiscal year from the Sunday nearest September 30 to the Sunday nearest June 30. The current fiscal year, FY2006 is a short year—3 quarters or 39-weeks. The change of the fiscal year to June allows for the year-end close to occur at a less busy time of year, not at peak grocery retail sales, which begins in October lasting through January.
We will be squeezing many things into this shortened year—moving any dates tied to the budget approval process from beginning in March ending in September to beginning in January and ending in June.
The work to close the books for FY2005 is underway, marked most notably by the counting of inventory on the last day of the fiscal year (October 2). At this point, the accountants, Wegner LLP, are scheduled to do their fieldwork review of the books (bank statements, invoices, account receivables, etc.) in mid November. Once that work is completed, Wegner will prepare an audit report for presentation to the WSGC Board at the December board meeting. The audit is a review of our operation from an external third-party observer, and the main means for the Board to evaluate that the numbers reported in the financial statements are accurate, and the processes we use are sound.
The Co-op has on a few occasions closed the store early in the last six months. In addition to the traditional holidays, including Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day, we decided to close early for Rhythm and Booms, the summer staff party, and year end inventory count. This was not altogether welcomed by a vocal minority of members (eight)—not because the decision was made to close early, but that the mechanism to inform members is not foolproof and we agreed that a means to better notify folks needs to be designed. An option discussed by the department managers was to create a voluntary email notification system in order to send reminders to members of store related issues—please look for this sign up sheet at Customer Service.
The Co-op will be open limited hours on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 24. Hours of operation are 8:00am to 2:00pm.
And, as an early reminder, the Co-op will close at 6:00pm December 24, Christmas Eve, and be closed on December 25, Christmas Day. We will be open regular hours on New Year's Eve (8am-9pm) and closed on New Year's Day.
Thanksgiving may be the most ideal holiday we can help you prepare—no matter what your dinner plans are. From traditional turkey to lasagna to non-meat options we have the goods. Bon appetit.
On expansion, WSGC is into the second phase of the request for information (RFI) process. The RFI has generated a response from 15 developers and/or property owners. The sites will be reviewed by the ad-hoc committee members. The committee will then create a short list of site options to further research to determine if an ideal fit exists that satisfies member needs, physical requirements, financial limitations, and the Board and Co-op vision and mission. The ad hoc committee consists of representatives proficient in legal, financial, and real estate matters: three Board members, two opportunity committee members, and the general manager.

Liverpool ace Steven Gerrard has warned England to get tighter at the back.
England face Ukraine in Donetsk on Tuesday evening knowing that a draw will take them through to a last-eight meeting with either World and European champions Spain, Italy or Croatia – and eliminate the co-hosts.
Gerrard said: "We showed a lot of character against Sweden, but the disappointing thing is that I felt we shouldn't have needed to. After going a goal ahead and completely controlling the first half, it wasn't good to find ourselves behind and having to dig deep.
"We lost concentration at two set-pieces and we were punished both times.
"In terms of general play I thought we were very good.
"But at this level, if you defend like we did, then you're in trouble."
Gerrard added: "If you concede from set-pieces in international football then you generally lose.
"Moving forward we have to address those mistakes."

Lurking beyond the NCAA tournament horizon for UCLA's basketball team is one very important question:
Will they or won't they?
Three Bruins will have NBA decisions to make once their tournament run is done. Sophomore Kyle Anderson, sophomore Jordan Adams and freshman Zach LaVine may have already played their last game at Pauley Pavilion. Or one, two or all could be back next season.
The early line has Anderson leaving, LaVine a pick 'em and Adams likely to return.
But it's an inexact science that surely sends a shiver through some fans. These are the types of decisions that prompt the gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands.
The players, already stressed by the lose-and-it's-all-over scenario of an NCAA tournament, are not immune to the extra pressure.
"It's tough on kids my age," Anderson said. "It's a big decision. There's all the talk about what you're going to do. You can't listen to it.
"It's March. You've got to keep your focus."
Anderson, a 6-foot-9 point guard who is a nifty passer with tremendous court sense, averages 14.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game heading into the Bruins' NCAA opener Friday against Tulsa at San Diego State's Viejas Arena.
He has proved to be a tough matchup for opponents at the college level, but there are NBA scouts who are unsure where Anderson will fit in as a pro.
"I understand that whole process," Anderson said. "That's just going to require more work. I'm ready for that. I completely understand the business."
Beyond his family, he has one business adviser. Anderson talks frequently to Shabazz Muhammad, who a year ago left for the NBA after his freshman season at UCLA.
Muhammad was drafted 14th overall by the Utah Jazz and immediately traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has played in 28 games, averaging 7.6 minutes, in his rookie season.
"He has helped with me with everything as far as how the NBA works and what it came down to making his decision," Anderson said.
Anderson has sidestepped questions about whether he will declare for the draft, but his father has been very direct with his opinion. "He's done," Kyle Anderson Sr. said last week.
Anderson the player has left ajar the door to return.
"It's up in the air right now," he said.
Of his father's comments, Anderson said, "He came out and said it. I just want to focus on the tournament. Whatever happens, we'll make a decision after the season."
Most projections have Anderson going in the latter half of the first round if he does declare for the draft.
"I heard all the great praise you could get as a 20-year-old kid this season," Anderson said. "I think some games it made me come out and subconsciously relax my play. Maybe I wasn't as hungry as I was in the beginning of the season."
