In Judaism, ultimate reality is a single, all-powerful God. It is this central belief that made the Jews unique among other ancient Semitic peoples and that became the legacy Judaism has passed on to the entire Western world. The sacred name of God, as revealed to Moses in the Torah, is YHWH.
The name of God is critically important to Jewish beliefs. Since ancient Hebrew was written without vowels, it is not know what the original pronunciation of this word. The common pronunciation "Jehovah," however, is imprecise. It is derived from combining the vowels for Adonai ("Lord") with the four consonants of YHWH. A more "correct" pronunciation, and that which is used among scholars, is "Yahweh."
The Tetragrammaton
The discussion is irrelevant to observant Jews, however, as they do not pronounce this holiest of names. When the Torah is read aloud, Adonai ("Lord") is read in its place. This practice is reflected in most English translations, in which YHWH is rendered "LORD." Jews also refer to God as Hashem, "the Name."
The word YHWH is sometimes referred to as the Tetragrammaton, from the Greek for "four-lettered." It is also called "The Forbidden Name" or the "Unutterable Name." The prohibition against pronouncing this name does not originate with the command to not take the Lord's name in vain, as is sometimes thought.
Although traditionally this only applies to the Name in Hebrew, some modern Jews also refrain from writing the word "God," replacing it instead with "G-d." Opinions vary within Judaism as to the necessity of such a practice.

In 1940, he became an instructor in government and business relations at the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration, and later he became an assistant dean. While at Harvard he also served as a special consultant to the commanding general of the Army Air Forces in developing statistical controls.
In 1944 Zuckert entered the U.S. Navy as a lieutenant and worked in the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, where he was assigned to the service's inventory control program. In September 1945 he was released from the Navy to become executive assistant to the administrator, Surplus Property Administration, under W. Stuart Symington. When Symington became assistant secretary of war for air in February 1946, Zuckert became his special assistant.
With the passage of the National Security Act in 1947 and Symington's subsequent appointment as the first secretary of the Air Force, Zuckert took the oath as assistant secretary of the Air Force. His principal duties were in the field of management.
He helped institute Symington's program of "Management Control Through Cost Control," an initiative to place the U.S. Air Force on a business-like basis, using accepted industrial practices as a yardstick for establishing Air Force procedures. Zuckert represented the Air Force in the formulation of the fiscal 1950 budget, the first joint Army-Navy-Air Force budget in U.S. history.
The accomplishment that Zuckert considered his most professionally satisfying stemmed from President Harry S. Truman's 1948 directive requiring the armed services to abolish segregation. Working with Lieutenant General Idwal H. Edwards, head of Air Force personnel, Zuckert oversaw implementation of the integration program. In addition, Zuckert served as the Air Force member of the Interservice Committee created by Secretary of Defense James Forrestal to develop a Uniform Code of Military Justice for the Department of Defense.
Remaining in the secretariat after Thomas K. Finletter succeeded Symington as secretary, Zuckert was charged with handling the "highly controversial and vexatious problem of the civilian components, including the reserves and the Air Force National Guard." As Finletter concentrated more on larger issues, such as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and nuclear weapons development, Zuckert dealt with the daily operations of the office. When he left his position as assistant secretary in February 1952 to become a member of the Atomic Energy Commission, he left an Air Force cost-control system that had established a new high point in sound business administration within the military establishment, and he had secured a personal reputation as one of the top-flight, younger career officials in government.
In December 1960 Robert S. McNamara, President-elect John F. Kennedy's designee for secretary of defense, recommended to Kennedy that Zuckert be appointed Air Force secretary. Zuckert was nominated and confirmed in January 1961. With nearly six years of Air Force experience, Zuckert was better prepared for and more knowledgeable about the secretariat and its organization than any previous appointee. Zuckert was involved in controversies associated with the XB-70, AGM-48 Skybolt, and the TFX (later the F-111) weapon systems, and with direct participation in the war in Vietnam. Both he and Air Force Chief of Staff General Thomas D. White opposed the administration's decision to cut the XB-70 bomber. Zuckert later admitted that he erred in promoting the bomber because of its increasing vulnerability to enemy defenses.
The TFX was a tactical fighter-bomber designed and built for both the Air Force and the Navy. In negotiations over the development of that weapon, Zuckert supported the administration, which wanted the plane, against the Air Force, which did not. In so doing, he strained his relationship with the Air Force and lost a measure of the confidence it had placed in him. When the Skybolt missile was canceled in December 1962, Zuckert and the Air Staff were allied, as they had been during the XB-70 debate, against the secretary of defense and the administration. Zuckert often found himself to be the "man in the middle," at times supporting the Air Force against the secretary of defense and the administration.
Shortly after Zuckert left office in September 1965, the Air Force instituted the Zuckert Management Award, which is given annually in September to a general officer or high-level civilian for "outstanding management performance." The award perpetuates Secretary Zuckert's commitment to sound and effective management within the Air Force. Zuckert himself attended every awards ceremony through 1998.
Until his retirement in 1988, Zuckert practiced law, did consulting and was active in pursuing his long-standing interest in corporate governance. Over the years he served as a director of several small, technically oriented companies. On June 5, 2000, Eugene Zuckert died of pneumonia complicated by a heart ailment at the age of 88.

With the unemployment rate steady at 9.7%, not many Americans turn down job offers these days—especially those who have been laid off. Art Wells is an exception. The Portland, Ore., Web developer has left two job offers on the table in the last year. He chose instead to stick with the freelance business he started in late 2008 after being laid off by lighting manufacturer Rejuvenation. Although he starts most weeks not knowing who he will be working for, new clients keep ringing. "Two new jobs called in this morning," Wells said during a 9:30 a.m. interview on a recent Friday.

What a hottie
In "USC's Topless Professor" [Lusty Lady, May 2430] Rachel Kramer Bussel wrote, "With my own nude photos online, I can relate to Blaine's situation. Attempting to be taken seriously while also publicly claiming one's sexuality means we walk a tricky line. Too many people look at the nudity and never read on to see how the choice to show our bodies relates to the rest of our lives." May I say to Bussel that it may depend on the artistry of the photographer and the subject. Bussel's pictures online are not only tasteful, they are beautiful, complete with a gentle and erotic narrative yet glistening with a power and comedic subtext that make her just a little bit too sexy to also be such a fine writer and intellectual.

Per jury
In his article "Progressive Scan" [June 713] Michael Atkinson pans my film Iraq in Fragments and states: "Of course it won three prizes at Sundance, where audiences are yet learning about cinematic syntax versus the possibility of truthfulness." In fact the three prizes my film won at Sundance were not awarded by the audience at all, but rather by a jury composed of filmmakers Andrew Jarecki, Zana Briski, Joe Bini, and Alexander Payne. Atkinson would do well to correctly address his insults.
James Longley
Cairo, Egypt
Nat Hentoff's column last week, "Black Site for Justice," gave the wrong surname for the former head of the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility. His name is Michael Shaheen, not Sheehan.
In Michael Atkinson's obituary of Shohei Imamura, ["New Wave Master," June 713], the suggestion that Imamura directed the 1958 version of The Ballad of Narayama is erroneous; it was directed by Kinoshita Keisuke.

Enjoy trails up to five miles long as you stroll through a wood and watch wading birds, ducks and geese on the estuary. Shorter paths are wheelchair accessible in dry weather, but all the tracks can be muddy after rain. In spring, nightingales and other birds fill the woods with song. The spring flowers are also particularly beautiful. To see estuary birds, the best time to visit is during the autumn and winter.
Trails are open at all times, but the car park is locked from 7 pm (or dusk, whichever is earlier) until 6 am.

Loved it - just beautiful
Just beautiful invitations and looked even better in person! So exciting to send out.
Very Pleased
I was very pleased with my invitations. They were affordable, beautiful and I received them in a timely manner. The best part was that I was able to order just one Initially, being able to hold it in my hand and see it up close was perfect.
Beautiful invitations
Beautiful programs and invitations. I ordered on a budget but the product I got didn't reflect that. They are high quality products at a great price. The personalization process was a little difficult but with a little patience I figured it out.
Just What We Wanted
We stumbled upon this invite style and loved it. It wasn't too feminine but still had a simple elegance. We personalized it with all of our colours, fonts and sizes. The quality is amazing (think paper with nice texture). I would recommend getting a sample first, as the colours displayed on my monitor were nothing like our sample (peach on my monitor was actually yellow on the invite).
Everything looks great!
100% SATISFIED WITH MY ORDER! This was my second order with Magnetstreet and I am more satisfied this time than my first. Fast shipping, great paper quality, great picture color quality and all for a great price.

FOXBORO, Mass. — It might not be spring break, but the Patriots are more than happy to get five days off during their bye week.
After practicing Wednesday, the Patriots ran through their final steps at Gillette Stadium before departing for a few days. The new collective bargaining agreement mandates all teams to have four consecutive days off during the bye week, but Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has given his team five days off, presumably for good behavior (an AFC East-leading 5-1 record) and an extra chance to rest up before a string of physical games against the Steelers, Giants and Jets.
Some players will travel to see family — Wes Welker is heading to Oklahoma, while Andre Carter is going to California, among many others who will leave the Foxboro area — but a number are just hanging out nearby. The best plans, they said, were not having any at all.
"It's not like spring break when you're in college or anything like that," Welker said. "You've still got to work out and do some of those things, but you're not out there running routes and doing all of those things that you do on a daily basis. Make sure you're still getting a lot of rest and a lot of sleep, and not staying out late and doing some of those things, and really kind of taking advantage of the time."
Tight end Rob Gronkowski hadn't made plans as of Wednesday afternoon, but he said he'd get into something during his time off. Most importantly, he said he wanted to make sure he used the time wisely, though.
"Just chilling, work out, get my body right," Gronkowski said. "I've definitely got some bruises, some things and stuff. You've got to get stronger, get back in the weight room, get some lifting on the weights, get your body right, fix it all up. That's my plan. Get the body right."
Right guard Brian Waters is part of the NFLPA executive board that helped fight for the extra time off during the bye week, so he was pretty excited to take advantage of it. It was almost as if he was a proud parent Wednesday as everyone prepared for their five-day vacation.
"I think everybody is a little bit happy about it," Waters said. "I haven't heard any complaints yet."

Contractors for insurance company are calling tomorrow morning at 9.30. They are based in clifton only two miles away so very local.
My goodness i must have needed some sleep. I slept through the radio alarm set for 7 and one hour of radio 4 and woke up at 8.301 A cooler night and less on my mind no doubt. Rai forecast for Bristol about 11 so will skip all but urgent watring this morning for which my water meter will be grateful. i am finding places for the pots from the conservatory ten at a time so this morning it is the turn of the cape gooseberries which will be given a spot in a raised bed where I have dug out some potatoes. Great crop of pink potatoes this year.
Each time you visit your tomato plants just give a little tap to eacg flower truss. just in case the pollinators are not around. this makes sure the pollen gets distributed. I feed half strength tomato food every second watering. Great tomato crops this year and no blight on them or the potatoes! Hooray!
The insurance inspector has been and approved all the work needing done. I feel much better now. It will not be long after my conservatory is mended when it will be full of plants again.
Flowers from my front garden snapped yesterday.
Blackberries will go with my Mr. Fothergills "Buddy" strawberries which keep fruiting till october as long as you remember to water them in this weather and some late raspberries still fruiting in the spinney to make a summer pudding from a stale loaf i have in the fridge. Super with ice cream. Plums are ripening and there are tons of them. Conference pears are getting to be huge as are the Bramleys. I do get masses of blackberries so will get myself some lemons to make squash with them for Xmas and beyond.
Another glorious day weatherwise. Could be two weeks before the awards for Bristol in Bloom are announced. The insurance company got in touch yesterday and the inspector is calling Wednesday morning between 8 and 1. A very good friend called to give me a much needed bearhug last night so I have stopped muttering "This too shall pass" to myself and feel much more cheerful. I have loads of huge blackberries needing picked. i love that job.
Oh, honeysuckle and rosa rugosa together must smell glorious. I was right - my garden has just been judged in the Bristol in Bloom comp. I had the card through the door to tell me. It was beautifully sunny so I hope they liked it.
Oh my goodness it must be getting near judging for Bristol in Bloom! No road sweeoer with his broom this morning but two smart little electric vans in yellow and black livery , one to clean the pavement, the other on the road clearing the gutter. you could eat your dinner off our road today! And every hour i am out picking up leaves fallen from the lime tree next door which thinks the drought is autumn and deadheading meticulously. beautiful weather, not so hot but dry and bright.
Sons 3 and 4 came over this afternoon and got most of the plants out of the conservatory and the table. i was so relieved to get my big pots of cymbidium orchids out and Mr. fothergills peppers. The tomatoes we left for now as the trial was to grow three kinds from seed to harvest indoors and i am picking twenty ripe fruits off them every day. my son who has a lot of dealings with insurance people in his transport business says they can be very slow so i may have gathered in all the harvest of those tomatoes before they need moving. I am hoping stiff taping could be put over the glass till it gets a replacement window.

A child with symptoms such as increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, fatigue or frequent fungal diseases may have diabetes.
Such symptoms can appear in cases of type 2 diabetes, which used to be confined almost exclusively to older adults, or type 1 diabetes, which often starts in childhood or adolescence, according to Monika Niehaus, spokeswoman for the Professional Association of Paediatricians in the German state of Thuringia.
"Particularly cramps, constipation, blurred vision and recurrent skin infections can be signs of type 1 diabetes," she noted.
Type 1 diabetes has become the most common metabolic disorder in children and adolescents in Germany. The number of new cases has risen especially sharply among small children in recent years, jumping from 2.5 to 6.2 per cent over the past 20 years among children under four years of age.
Some 25,000 adolescents in Germany under the age of 20 have type 1 diabetes. The number of adolescents with type 2 diabetes has more than doubled over the past 10 years, which is likely due in part to their increasingly unhealthy eating habits and weight issues.
Detecting diabetes early is very important, Niehaus said. Without insulin treatment, a diabetic could develop life-threatening ketoacidosis, a condition in which acids called ketones build up in the blood and urine, requiring immediate hospitalization. Possible symptoms include dehydration, difficulty in breathing, vomiting and loss of consciousness.
According to the 2011 German Health Report on Diabetes, children are most likely to develop type 1 diabetes between the ages of 10 and 15. The onset of a third of the cases occurs between ages 5 and 10, about 19 per cent around the age of 5 and about 10 per cent between ages 15 and 18.

NORTH KITSAP - A jury Tuesday convicted a Kingston man of three felony sex crimes, according to attorneys familiar with the case.
Wayne A. Burton, who has worked as a paraeducator at Gordon Elementary School, was found guilty of sexually abusing a girl known to him following a more than weeklong trial in Kitsap County Superior Court.
Because the jury also found Burton had abused a position of trust and the abuse was ongoing, a judge could sentence him to up to 25 years in prison, according to prosecutors.
Kitsap County sheriff's detectives arrested Burton, then 50, in April 2010 on suspicion of abusing the girl for three to four years. During the trial, prosecutors used DNA evidence to show Burton had sexual contact with the girl.
Craig Kibbe, Burton's attorney, said that his client has maintained his innocence and that the girl had been angry with Burton.
Burton, who also worked as a substitute school bus driver, has been on unpaid leave from the North Kitsap School District since administrators received news of his arrest. The sheriff's office said previously the allegations against Burton did not involve any students at the elementary school.

His voice has become synonymous with not only Public Enemy but the many different hip-hop, and even house and techno songs, that sample it. Yet it was his artist creativity, not his voice, that got Chuck D involved with the hip-hop recording world.

Riley Qualifies for 110m Hurdles Final at World Championships
Aug. 12, 2013
MOSCOW, Russia -- Former Illini Andrew Riley timed 13.30 in the semifinals of the 110m hurdles at the World Championships and advanced to the final after placing fourth in his heat. Riley's time was the fourth-fastest overall, automatically qualifying him to race in the final on Monday, Aug. 12 at 9:30 p.m. in Moscow (12:30 p.m. CT).
The Kingston, Jamaica native ran out of lane nine in the second heat, and finished one tenth of a second behind the United State's Ryan Wilson. The two fastest times of the day also came from the second heat, with Russia's Sergey Shubenkov timing a 13.17 for first place, and David Oliver of the United States finishing one one-hundredth of a second later to take second (13.18).

Xitlalli Gonzalez didn't want to go to summer school because she thought it was embarrassing, but sticking with it allowed her to be one of almost 400 students graduating from Kern High School District schools Friday.
"I'm excited for what the future has in store for me," she said.
Students looked for shade, laughed and took pictures on the lawn outside Bakersfield High School's Harvey Auditorium before the ceremony started, their brightly colored polyester robes intermingling with each other, every color representing a different school.
Kelly Hardin, assistant principal at Independence High School, was in charge of the chaos and said even though it's hard to coordinate an event with 20 schools, it was a great day.
"They've worked really hard to be here today," she said. "They're excited and they're being really responsible."
Hardin said only about 50 of the 416 students who qualified to participate chose not to attend the ceremony. The graduates consisted of some students choosing to graduate early, seniors graduating late and nontraditional students from Bakersfield Adult School and Kern Workforce 2000 Academy.
And some didn't know if they would graduate until two days before the event.
"It's been a very challenging experience," Hardin said.
While each graduate had a different reason for being there, excitement about the future was clear.
Gonzalez said she was glad she went through with summer school and plans to go into the medical field, studying at Bakersfield College for two years before hopefully transfering somewhere else.
"We got through it together," said her friend Tressia Morentin, who was also graduating from BHS.
Carson Raminez of Centennial High School said it was a nice experience to graduate with students from other schools.
"It's kind of cool seeing the amount of people that don't graduate who are actually with you," he said. "It's like you're not the only one that is going through the same thing."
But Raminez was more interested in the future than the ceremony itself; he plans to travel to Europe in February and wants to eventually open his own graphic design firm.
Maxamillion Ferguson of Centennial High was just glad summer school was over and simply wants to get a job.
"It's pretty relieving that I'm done," Ferguson said. "I can start my life again."
Families cheered and whistled at the well-attended ceremony where Martha Miller, a member of the KHSD board of trustees, delivered a message about moving onward and upward while not forgetting those who helped along the way.
"You have proven you can persevere and I have no doubt you will be successful," she told the students.

PADRES: Big support for Correia
Padres set Petco Park record with 18 runs in win over Mets
SAN DIEGO -- Kevin Correia might be the most envied starting pitcher in the Padres' rotation.
For the third time in 10 starts this season, Correia received double-digit backing from his offense as the Padres established a Petco Park-record in an 18-6 win over the New York Mets on Monday night.
Jerry Hairston Jr. and Nick Hundley led the way as five Padres had two or more RBIs in a game in which they loaded the bases four times and finished with 27 base runners, including 19 hits. The outburst helped the Padres finish May with a 16-12 record -- their fourth straight winning month -- and allowed them to maintain a two-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West.
"We have an understanding that when I go out there, they're going to score some runs," said Correia, who is averaging a team-high 8.35 runs of support per outing and was also on the mound when the team established its previous high for runs scored (17) at Petco on April 12. "It takes the pressure off for a few innings and you can see, once these guys relax like that, they can just swing the bats well. Everybody was having good at-bats. I think it just shows that once these guys get comfortable on a regular basis we're a good offensive team."
Nobody has been hotter than Hundley and Hairston.
So it was no surprise to see the two heavily involved in the Padres' second-inning rally against Mets starter Hisanori Takahashi (4-2). Hundley led off the inning with the first of three straight singles to load the bases before Takahashi retired Luis Durango on a fly ball to shallow right field and struck out Correia (5-4).
Enter Hairston, who though he believes hitting at Petco Park can be frustrating, has heated up during the homestand.
After taking a first-pitch fastball for a strike, Hairston blasted a high drive into the second deck of the Western Metal Supply Co. building for a grand slam home run to give the Padres a 4-1 lead.
"If (Takahashi) gets out of that jam right there, he gets a little momentum," said Hundley. "We let him off the hook and he starts to settle into a little rhythm and who knows what happens."
The Padres took the momentum gained and continued plugging away in the third inning.
Leading 4-1, Adrian Gonzalez, who reached base four times, and Chase Headley, who had a home run and three singles, opened with back-to-back hits in front of Hundley's two-run double into the left-field corner.
Hundley, who also singled and walked, is 11-for-23 since May 21 with nine RBIs.
The hot streak couldn't have come at a better time for the Padres, who learned late Sunday night they will be without catcher Yorvit Torrealba until Friday as he attends to personal matters in Venezuela.
Trailing 6-1, the Mets responded with three runs off Correia in the top of the fifth inning.
But the Padres weren't finished.

DALLAS -- George W. Bush will make a rare post-presidential foray into politics on Wednesday when he delivers a speech about immigration, thrusting himself into a contentious internal policy debate which has split the Republican Party he once led.
GOP lawmakers are already sending signals that his thoughts won't sway them but immigration reform is one of the great unfinished items of Bush s presidency. His words on the matter are all the more noteworthy considering how hesitant he has been to delve into politics since leaving office, preferring instead to pursue other activities, such as charity work and his new painting hobby.
See the ceremony live here.
But his absence from the public stage has been more than self-imposed. Republicans have often turned their backs on his two-term presidency since he left office highly unpopular in most polls. The former president has not been a staple on the campaign trail as many former presidents have been, and he was kept so far away from the 2012 campaign that his brother, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, was left to defend his record and legacy at last year s Republican convention.
Largely because of that history, Bush s sentiments don t appear to matter much to many House Republicans, who now control the fate of comprehensive immigration reform and will huddle behind closed doors to plot their path forward on the issue the same day Bush speaks at a naturalization ceremony at his presidential library in Texas. They ve already signaled that Bush won t have much impact on their deliberations of a bipartisan bill passed by the Senate last month.
It s unclear precisely what Bush will say in his remarks but in a recent interview he reiterated his view that it is very important to fix a broken system, to treat people with respect and have confidence in our capacity to assimilate people.
Rep. Tim Griffin, an Arkansas Republican who served as a political aide in the Bush White House, flatly said no when asked whether his former boss s words would weigh on his or other Republicans thinking on immigration.
We represent our constituents. I think he's a great man, and I respect him greatly, Griffin said. But I've got 85 to 95 percent of constituents calls to my office against the Senate bill every week.
The battle over comprehensive immigration reform into which Bush is wading is just the latest and broadest example of the internal battle over the trajectory of the GOP. It s a fight pitting dogged, grassroots conservatives against establishment Republicans who worry that itinerant conservatism will irreparably harm the party in this case, with the increasingly influential bloc of Hispanic voters.
Bush s remarks during a naturalization ceremony at his presidential library could ostensibly break through that rift.
A number of Republicans in Congress have come to Washington in the elections since Bush left office, and the party s identity is more tied into opposing President Barack Obama than celebrating the legacy of Obama s predecessor. But the fight over comprehensive immigration reform during the Bush administration in many ways presaged the GOP s struggles with Hispanic voters since conservatives drove the Republican president s immigration proposals into the ground in 2007.
Republican proponents of comprehensive immigration reform argue that conservatives would be well-served to tune into Bush s remarks on Wednesday.
I think it's a reminder that he, a Republican president, tried so hard to get immigration done and it is unfinished business for him, Ana Navarro, a prominent Republican advocate of immigration reform, said of Bush s speech. And I suspect that it won't be lost on some of the bigger thinkers in the GOP that the guy giving the speech was the last Republican to win the presidency and did it with 44 percent of the Hispanic vote. (An NBC News analysis determined that Bush won 40 percent of the Latino vote in the 2004 election, still up considerably from John McCain s 31 percent in 2008 and Mitt Romney s 27 percent in 2012.)
No, he's not going to sway Steve King, she added, referring to the hardline Iowa conservative congressman. But yes, his voice will make a difference to some and it's the right thing for him to do.
Bush s counsel for Republicans in his ABC interview was understated. Good policy yields good politics, as far as I m concerned, the former president said.
Not that Bush s endorsement of the Senate immigration reform law, which passed last month with bipartisan support, would necessarily make a difference.
I'll take the hypothetical. If he were to come out for the Senate bill, in all due respect, I would say he's wrong, said Griffin.
It doesn t help that Bush s cachet among conservatives had steadily eroded over the course of his second term. Mike Needham, the head of the conservative Heritage Action for America (which opposes the Senate-passed immigration reform proposal), said that after mounting government spending and Bush s failed Supreme Court nomination of Harriet Miers, the immigration bill did nothing to enamor the base to President Bush.
I think there's a strong sense among the conservative base that fundamentally the deck is stacked against people across the country and in favor of special interests, he said.
And to the extent that Bush s arguments threaten to fall largely upon deaf ears, it reflects the drastic shifts in the GOP over the course of just a few years. The balance of power now favors groups like Heritage Action rather than one of the two surviving former Republican presidents.
Fundamentally, where the Republican establishment misses the boat is that people just don't trust Washington, Needham said.

HOUSTON -- Houston's economy will be hit hard as the government puts new rules in place that will block all new offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, according to experts.
Dr. Lee Hunt, president of the International Association of Drilling Contractors, estimated Thursday the local job losses from the expanded moratorium on drilling, which includes both deepwater and shallow-water areas, would be in the tens of thousands.
From 25,000 to 80,000 people immediately, he said. By immediately, I mean over a 90-day period.
The industry is still getting mixed signals on the status of new permits. One was issued Wednesday for a shallow-water well and then taken back the next day.
The biggest impact, though, is not the 6-month deepwater moratorium on new drilling, but the immediate end to currently permitted projects.
There are 33 rigs that are currently in various stages of shutting down. More than half of those are getting ready to leave the Gulf if nothing changes.
The solution is to allow current permit holders to operate, Hunt said.
If we do all of that, that cascading nightmare of consequences doesn't happen, he said.
That's why on Thursday afternoon the IADC sent a letter to Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar. In it, the group asked what drillers need to do to resume operations at the currently permitted sites.
Hunt said that resumption of activity could make a billion-dollar difference.
We don't have layoffs. We don't have disruption. We don't have hundreds of small businesses in industrial parks all over Houston they don't have to lay off workers and close their doors, he said.

Intelligence Squared U.S.: Does Domestic Spying Keep Us Safe?
Saturday 6am 93.9FM, 2pm AM820. Sunday 7am AM820, 8pm AM829
Saturday, January 18, 2014
The NSA collects data on billions of phone calls and internet communications per day. Are these surveillance programs legal? Do they keep us safe? If not for the former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, most Americans would be unaware of the vast amounts of information their government is secretly collecting, all in the name of national security. But whether you believe leakers are heroes or traitors, an important public conversation has finally begun, and we should ask ourselves: What tradeoffs are we willing to make between security and privacy?

At the conclusion of our 2014 season, we have much to be thankful for, and much to look forward to.
The genre-busting ETHEL completed a decade of matchless music making and passionate teaching as our quartet-in-residence, helping us bring NACAP to its next level and bringing extraordinary music and artists to our stage, like this year's special guest James Bilagody.
Our audiences were treated to a celebration of the Mississippi River, in words and music, with composer Eve Beglarian, Guidonian Hand and Mary Rowell.
The Catalyst Quartet brought us Bach's Goldberg Variations, a work that seems to play with time and memory. We look forward to bringing the members of Catalyst back to continue their lively and expressive exploration of the chamber music repertoire, and their inspiring work with our student composers.
Through partnerships with the Heard Museum, Navajo Nation Museum and Scottsdale Community College, we reached more students and communities than ever before.
And School of Rock once again brought down the house.
We look forward to more great music ahead, and to seeing you in 2015 for the 32nd season of the Grand Canyon Music Festival!
Thus the Grand Canyon is a land of song. – JW Powell

Microsoft has announced that it will end support for Windows XP on April 8, 2014. After this day there will be no new security updates, non-security hotfixes, free or paid assisted support options, or online technical content updates. So how is corporate IT dealing with the move to a supported version of Windows? Is Windows XP still around? Has the migration caused issues?
The following report, sponsored by Dell Software, is based on a survey of 467 IT professionals with responsibility for corporate desktops and laptops. The goal of the survey, conducted in June 2013, was to understand the current status of migration away from Windows XP, challenges faced during the migration, and other related questions.

Not exactly sure what Rag & Bones is, I'm sure the more merchandise aware among us would know, but I do know they got Emily Ratajkowski to do yet another smoking hot pictorial with her hands preciously hugging her own sweet melons. How jealous am I of her hands at this moment? The answer — quite jealous.
Emily Ratajkowski isn't just a rising star, she's a sextastic force to be reckoned with. A beacon of the boobtastic in these troubled times that you can cling to like a baby clings to its mother. Exactly like that actually is how I see it going down. Enjoy.

WiFi on Wheels Rolls Into Public Housing
Wednesday, November 20, 2013
In areas of the city where New Yorkers don't have easy access to broadband, it can be difficult to find a job – or even a build a resume to get started. The New York City Housing Authority is trying to help some of its residents by rolling in WiFi on wheels.
Bernard Williams and Joshua Stevenson run one of NYCHA's digital vans, which are fitted with computers with WiFi as well as a printer/scanner. The vans also serves as mobile community center, and the two men are its directors. They let visitors know about job and education opportunities and help them with their resumes.
"We make sure their resume doesn't get kicked to the trash," Stevenson said.
And when kids show up, they act as mentors, but also understand that sometimes, all people want to do is just surf the web a little or relax watching a video or playing a game.

They make great stocking stuffers, but the National Council on Problem Gambling says giving lottery scratch-off tickets to kids as Christmas gifts could turn them into gamblaholics.
Now that people are fully immersed in the holiday shopping season, the Texas Lottery has joined forces with NCPG to discourage adults from giving lottery tickets to minors.
Holiday tickets with festive artwork and winter themes are always popular as stocking stuffers, but the games are designed with adults in mind, says Texas Lottery Commission Deputy Director Gary Grief. You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a Texas Lottery ticket, he says.
The Texas Lottery is supporting NCPG's national campaign by releasing a series ofpublic service announcements.

Sri Lanka police arrests looters behind religious riots
Published on Jun 28, 2014 12:52 PM
COLOMBO (AFP) - Sri Lanka's police arrested key suspects involved in fuelling religious riots and looting, an official said on Saturday as minority Muslims expressed fears of more unrest ahead of Ramadan.
Police said a total of eight people directly linked to the June 15 anti-Muslim riots were arrested this week and gems and jewellery looted from two shops that were targeted during the violence were recovered.
"With the help of CCTV footage and the recently established (police) intelligence network we arrested the suspects along with the stolen goods," senior superintendent Athula Weerasinghe said.
The violence which erupted in the coastal resort of Alutgama spilled over into the neighbouring international tourist resorts of Beruwala and Bentota.

Sutherlands Hut & Onoke Spit ride 20th Oct 13:
Originally I was looking for a quiet run to dial in the carbs, to check that the gearbox was doing what it should, to check for any other issues that might cause me grief on the CtC, & also to play with my new Garmin e-Trex 20 GPS.
I had 'passed' on a ride with Stephen Oatley Saturday, mainly because I still had work to do on Gus (& also because I needed to get some stuff done around home here to build up brownie points with Mandy given I am away Labour Weekend). Saturday's weather was glorious here in J'ville, fine, warm, & still. I also passed on a run advertised on Kiwibiker with MarkS on Sunday, mainly because he seemed to be going too far (I wanted to preserve tyres & cash for CtC).
Then on Saturday night Chris Adam posted on Facebook, querying if anyone wanted a ride Sunday. I rashly posted about perhaps doing either Sutherlands Hut or Odlins Rd, & given Chris's enthusiastic response, was committed. At least the timing of the meeting at Rimutex (at 10.00 am) was civilized.
Sunday at J'ville was fine, but very blustery. I initially thought maybe I'd picked the wrong day to ride. But the winds eased on the ride to Upper Hutt.
The timing of our meeting at Rimutex coincided with a run by the Spyders Club, I assume organised with TSS.
Chris Adams (DR650), Ricky Kernohan (DR650), Daniel Wisner (XTZ660 Tenere), & Eugene King (WR426) made it along this time.
The run over the Rimutakas was relaxed, given I let 3 bikes (a KTM 990, Triumph 800, & a BMW G650GS) in ahead of me, as they proved not to be as speedy as anticipated. 1st stop was Martinborough for coffees (told you it was civilized), then out White Rock Road, then a right turn at Ruakokoputuna Rd, & straight out on good gravel to the Aorangi Forest Park.
The carpark was awash with bikes – I assume a Motomart run given the nos of big BMWs coming out of the track.
I coached Daniel on dropping tyre pressures for the track. I think that helped.
The start of the track has always been blocked by a big mud puddle. That was smaller this time & had access across the ruts. The track itself seemed a little more cut up by erosion ruts than last time I was there, but all very manageable. The streams had washed away all the grit & pee gravel, so seemed to have a higher proportion of big rocks.
Daniel had an issue with the steep exit of one stream – not unexpected. I had the same issue last time I was in there with EddieB.
I definitely still need to work on fitness.
The hut is still the same. Still abuzz with blowflies.
We decided to poke our noses up Cnut Hill. Ricky & Eugene made it to the top. Everytime I go there, I convince myself it's mind over matter, make it to the foot, & the hill convinces me otherwise. I was relatively happy to sit at the bottom & watch the carnage. Daniel got up about as far as Chris, & both decided to save it for another day.
The ride out always seems to go much better than the way in. After a short break at the carpark, we hit the gravel on the way out. I was playing with cornering, sliding & eventually got so much into the groove I decided to go for a blast. It's rare that I do that, but was a hoot. After all, if Gus isn't built for that sort of stuff, what is he built for? Met Howie out for a spin at the White Rock Rd corner. Back to Martinborough to air up the tyre a bit, & gas for Eugene.
Decided to attack Onoke Spit. Swapped bikes with Ricky for the ride down to Ocean Beach. It was good to try another bike. I thought that the DR had an FCR, it was carbureted so well. Taller than Gus, & firm (not harsh) suspension. With the Safari tank & stock headlight, felt almost stubby in front compared with Gus. Noisy exhaust though. Good to see Gus from another angle (I'm pretty pleased with the 'look').
Couldn't convince Howie to come out to the Spit with us. The tide was coming up & it was almost full. The stream had scoured out a bit on last time I was there, so we needed to pick the right place to cross. The beach down by the tide line was relatively soft this time, so loads of wheelspin. It also had a lot of humps formed by the waves. So not a smooth ride. Good to get to the end though. I think the heavier bikes maybe suffered more than the 2 DRs & the WR.
Sorry Ricky, missed your stream crossing
By the time we got back to the Ocean Beach stream exit it was 5.30pm, so time to head home (separately – I thought I'd catch Ricky but he appeared in a hurry). Home 7.00 ish. Washed Gus then given salt & grit. Good ride guy. Thanks.

Cape to Cape - 25th-28th Oct
Padmei scooted across from Nelson Thursday on the Bluebridge ferry. He clamed the sailing was smooth despite (or maybe because of) the big winds. That night he got no sleep because of the mild zephyrs Wellington weather continued to serve up (I think he thought the sleepout was going to take off).
The pre ride plans blew out the window with the wind.
The goal was New Plymouth for the night.
Assembled as a group at the Mana weigh station, in blustery conditions. At least we were all late. I envied Padmei & Aslan's screens – I felt like a windsock on the road.
Stopped for coffee before the Paraparas.
It didn't rain (much) until after Wanganui. Then rain set in, & it hurled down between Raetahi & Taumaranui. We left big puddles of water under the MacDonald Taumaranui's seats, while we warmed up, & somewhat dried out. I discovered my wet weathers are no longer fully waterproof. Ah, the joys of a trickle of cold rain inside your riding gear.
After Taumaranui the weather eased, & we rode River Rd, Ohura Rd (Padmei particularly enjoyed Tangarakau gorge), then into Moki Rd (Mt Dampier), Mangapapa Rd, Okau Rd, then left into Kiwi Rd nirvana, & through to Moki Rd. Found a couple of tunnels in there. That ride has to be right up there with the Motu & Opotiki Rd (which is nowhere nr Opotiki). Then as bonus, Aslan led us on a magical mystery tour thru Uruti Rd, Kaka Rd, & Okoti Rd (capturing a third tunnel on the way) before finally coming out near Urenui at about 7.00pm, & on to New Plymouth.
Kiwi Road
Young1 & Leanne kindly turned on a fish & chip evening for the boys. It was much appreciated, even if we didn't dress appropriately for the event.
531 km day.
5.30am starts are not especially welcome in my books, but were necessary to get to Cape Egmont from Phreaky Phil's, in time for the start. At least the weather was cooperating, & was fine & cool.
The start at Cape Egmont
It was there that I discovered that in my preoccupation with loading GPX tracks for the pre & post runs, that I'd actually deleted the Cape to Cape event gpx file from my GPS. Talk about a sinking feeling.
Because I was without the GPS track, I decided to hook onto the end of Young1, Jose & Pila. Jose & Pila looked pretty loaded up, & I was confident that I could keep up with them. That confidence was misplaced.
Access was gained through a farm to short cut between two Cape Egmont lighthouses. Unfortunately this meant that a few peoples GPS's immediately threw a wobbly, & as a result the tail enders got lost.
I lost Young1, Jose & Pila near the end of Carrington Rd. I got to a Y intersection, & they were gone. Waited 5 mins for the next riders, but they failed to show – so decided to leg it for Z Inglewood, which was the last gas for some time. Turned out that the group was all there waiting. As an aside, now I've checked the GPS files, I actually followed the exact route anyway.
The cornerman system was adopted from there on, which dealt to any further issues (at least until nr the East Cape).
Highlights / memorable moments for the day included:
The campsite at Awakeri was pretty welcome, good to get the tent up, and the hot spring pools were luxury.
Something over 515 kms for the day.
Early start to get to Opotiki by 8.00am. Unfortunately we missed the 1st section of gravel. The guys had decided not to do 2 nights at Awakeri – in hindsight that worked well, because it meant we could stay at Te Araroa.
We agreed we'd meet the Motellers at the Bakery in Optoki. Another all day breakfast & loads of coffee. There may be a theme running here.
Opotiki Bakery
Straight across to the Motu. This is a gorgeous piece of road / track. It's the first time I'd gone South on it. Every other time had been North. Climbing initially changes the dynamic markedly. Someone in the leading 2 riders frightened the shit out of an older gentleman running a Suzuki jeep. He was pale with big eyes when he stopped to talk to me…
Aslan had fretted heaps about the stream crossing. It was dry.

Whakarau Rd is cool. I stopped to take some photos. Phil was Tail End Charlie for this section, & wouldn't let me just catch up, & waited for me to pack up. So we had a really excellent ride to chase down Aslan & Padmei, the next 2 riders. Buzzing.
Aslan, Whakarau Rd
Phreaky Phil, Whakarau Rd
Took a number of backroads up to the East Cape (from near Gisborne) instead of the normal coast road. These appear heavily used by logging trucks. The last road before the lunch break looked like they'd let a trainee grader driver loose on it. The problem areas were left alone, but there was big loose gravel strewn everywhere else. Made you really concentrate.
Chris dried his tent at the lunch break. Everyone else just ate their lunch. Always trying to be different.
Because the road had been difficult to that point, Aslan & Padmei took off earlier, with Young1 leading. We later caught Young1, but Padmei & Aslan took their own path.
Immediately following the lunch break the gravel roads improved markedly. But seemingly the damage had already been done, with Micawberism's final drive packing up. Mo agreed to follow him out to the nearest farmhouse, & then to pillion him across to the East Cape to finish the ride.

Lets figure a way out of here. Photo by Chris
Have to say the last few sections of gravel I was running on empty. I was very happy to finally see seal.
I regret putting the 91 in Gus at Te Araroa. He didn't digest it well. I probably almost had enough left in the tank to get to Gisborne anyway.
Climbed the 1000 steps to the East Cape lighthouse for the photo opportunity. Won't do that again…

Met Aslan & Padmei on our way out of the Cape – they'd got led by their devils box into a dead end backroad, & up someone's driveway. At least she was purported to be good looking.
Stayed the night at Te Araroa camp ground with Aslan, Padmei & Chris ($15/night ea), & dined at the Te Araroa Sport club – hosted by Murray. Nice people, loud music, not bad Karaoke.
Approx 415 km day
Chris headed North for Auckland. We decided to leg it south on SH35 to Gisborne, Lunch at Wairoa, then on to Napier.
I have had a couple of near misses with wildlife, stock, & a dog this weekend. I don't know how I missed the dog. It was close.
Padmei, Tologa Bay Wharf
Breakfast at Tologa Bay. An all day breakfast & coffee.
We missed a couple of accidents by not much. Between Gisborne & Wairoa a boat trailer had lost a wheel, & ruined the oncoming car driver's holiday. There was another car in a ditch earlier in the day.
Loads of cops out Monday, helping people lighten the load...
Fine to SH50, then a few shower cells. By just outside Pahiatua the weather was getting serious about things, & the riding was mildly unpleasant. Over the Rimutaka's the sun came back out. Home about 7.30pm-ish.
704 km day. So 2165 kms for the weekend.
Top weekend. Thanks Colin & Phil. I talked with the boys about getting a 'I survived a Colin & Phil ride' tee shirt printed up. Taking orders now...
Weekend costs:
$537 total. That included fuel $400, food $92, & accomodation $33.
General maintenance:
I topped up circa 250mm of oil on the way round, & the dipstick was at near minimum level when I returned to Wgtn. So I think a portion of the oil consumption has been crankcase pressurisation. I likely won't run the oil levels as high going forward.
221,482 kms. Gave Gus a wash & general spruce up on Tuesday / Wednesday.
The front MT21 needs to be spun around. It has worn heavily, but was worth it for the grip it gave. The rear E09 still has 4.00 mm tread depth - surprising. It was 6.00 mm before the weekend. I thought it would be dead at the end of the CtC.

It's just better when there's twins involved....

I can't believe you posted that Steve.
That is one of most irresponsible displays of blatant disregard for personal safety & of the environment that we all share & should be committed to protect. Did you realse that feshwater fish swim all the way upstream to spawn in those creeks?
The minimal protective gear they wore would not have helped had they had an accident - especially if they hit a 4wd/cattle truck/ tractor on those back roads had on while travelling at high speeds on those back roads.
It's cowboys like that riding machines not designed for off road purposes that are driving my ACC levies higher every year.
The tyres did not look warrantable nor with much tread judging by the way one of those hooligans liked "hanging it out" round corners - on a public road!
The noise from one of those exhaust pipes was offensive & easily above the db level for road worthiness.

Paris: Tennis remains an ace for Rancho Bernardo's Nideffer
She recites her missed points as Navratilova rallied to win 7-5 in the third. But Nideffer's emotions, even in defeat, still resonate on how special that match –- and this sport –- is to her.
"It's kind of interesting that a match I lost was one of my highlights,'' she said.
Recollections like those keep her charging the net, as the fun riding along with tennis never dissipates.
"You can enjoy tennis no matter how good or bad you are,'' Nideffer said. "If you hit that one good shot it can make your whole morning. And each shot, each point, is a new opportunity to try and hit that good shot. So it's always a challenge.''
And always on her check list.

Arizona Cardinals
Notes from the Nest: Aug. 12, 2014
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- A sparse crowd was on hand to watch the Arizona Cardinals practice Tuesday. If anything, it was probably just another sign of how this time of year can kind of drag -- for everyone. The Cards were in shorts Tuesday, meaning there was hitting involved, but it was not exactly a full-contact session.
Of Note
- Jonathan Cooper (toe), Kevin Minter (pectoral), Nate Potter (back), Max Starks (ankle) and Anthony Steen (neck) did not practice for a second straight day; Michael Floyd (groin), Ted Ginn, Jr. (knee) and Lyle Sendlein remain out, while John Abraham (personal) has yet to report. Cooper was, however, sans walking boot.
- It didn't appear to be the offense's best day. Rashad Johnson and Deone Bucannon each picked off a pass, and overall the Cardinals struggled to move the ball on a consistent basis.
- Jay Feely, who will handle the kicking duties Saturday in Minnesota, converted seven of his eight field goal attempts, including two from 50 yards out. His lone miss came from 43 yards.
- Ryan Lindley once again got all of the third team reps at quarterback. It will be he, not Logan Thomas, who will play Saturday in Minnesota.
- Receiver Dan Buckner had himself quite a day. The former UA Wildcat had at least one touchdown catch. Another one he seemed to bobble some before trapping it against his helmet, and a final reception may have had him out of bounds just shy of the goal line. Regardless, it was easily one of his best practices of camp.
- Tight end John Carlson caught a touchdown pass from Carson Palmer during red zone work. He was wide open -- like, nobody was near him.
- Running back-fullback-something back Robert Hughes scored a touchdown on a run during 11-on-11 red zone work. He basically went into the end zone untouched by the first team defense.
Stat of the Day
Jay Feely's 127 points last season was the second-best single-season total in franchise history, trailing only the 140 points Neil Rackers racked up in 2005.
Quotes of the Day
"Until practice is over. You get ejected from the game, so you get ejected from practice. We practice like it's a game every day. You play by the rules. You play the game. (If) you lose your temper and punch a guy in the game, you get ejected." - Coach Bruce Arians on kicking Darnell Dockett and Bradley Sowell out of the previous day's practice after they scuffled
"There's always room for improvement. We're not satisfied with anything we did because we haven't arrived yet." - Defensive lineman Frostee Rucker on if the run defense could be even better in 2014 than it was in 2013, when it was the best in the NFL
"You've just got to come out and compete every day. It's not a sprint; it's a marathon. Camp's long and you've got to stack them. We talk about stacking practices as a team, and you've got to stack them as an individual. I had a good day today, but that means I've got to come out and have another good one tomorrow." - Buckner on what was a good day of practice Tuesday

Midwestern State men, women sweep Javelinas
A&M-Kingsville makes just 12 of 28 free throws
KINGSVILLE - The Texas A&M-Kingsville men's basketball team had double-digit performances by Jamahl Brown and Rashad Basey, but it wasn't enough as the Javelinas lost to Midwestern State 67-64 Saturday at Kingsville Hampton Inn Court.
A&M-Kingsville (4-3 overall, 1-1 Lone Star Conference), which shot 47 percent from the floor, was led by Brown's 14 points and Basey's 11.
Midwestern State (5-2, 2-0) was led by Keith Spellman's 15 points, including 10 points from the free-throw line.
A&M-Kingsville hurt itself at the free-throw line, making just 12 of 28.
The Javelinas led 34-30 at halftime, but cooled off in the second half.
A&M-Kingsville led 48-43 before Midwestern State scored eight straight points to take a 51-48 lead with nine minutes, 26 seconds remaining.
The Mustangs stretched that lead to 65-59 with 2:03 left before the Javelinas answered. Donte McGee hit a 3-pointer and a drive to the basket by Basey made it 65-64 with 1:09 remaining.
Basey missed a pair of free throws with 42 seconds left that could have given the Javelinas the lead.
Midwestern State responded by making two free throws with 2.9 seconds remaining. The Javelinas didn't get off a final shot as Reid Wallace's inbound pass to midcourt was stolen.
Midwestern State dumps Javs women
KINGSVILLE — Kaitlyn Lowen set season-highs with 15 points and 10 rebounds, but Midwestern State beat Texas A&M-Kingsville 75-63 on Saturday at Kingsville Hampton Inn Court.
The Mustangs (5-1 overall, 1-1 Lone Star Conference) led from the start, opening up the lead to as much as 17 in the second half. The Javelinas (3-2, 1-1) shot efficiently from the free-throw line, making 16 of 21.
Lowen recorded her second double-double of the season. Fellow senior guard Breanna Gonzalez led the Javelinas, scoring a career-high 17 points, the most by a Javelinas player this season. All nine of the players who entered the game for the Javelinas scored.
A&M-Kingsville plays at Texas A&M-International at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
