Sumlin assesses results of A&M's second live scrimmage
August 18, 2012
On ones and twos, defense and energy levels
On how Johnny Manziel performed in a live-action setting...Sumlin: "I don't know, I think today was good and bad. Like I said last week, everybody was happy about offense. The fans pay to see that and the defense was bad. (But) I thought the defense was better today. Had a bit of continuity with the ones. The twos struggled. The quarterbacks did OK. The turnovers came from a fumble going in, a hit and dislodged ball going in; we worked a lot of situation stuff — red zone, coming off our own goal line. What we were trying to do there was get two first downs and turn the field over if we had to punt it.
"There were some good things. It's hard for me, just coming off the field (to say), but we had some guys that played well. I was disappointed with the amount of energy that was out there. We're not a good enough team to just go out there and play football and go through the motions. We have to play with energy. I didn't see that today like we have been. We practiced twice yesterday. Actually, we've had eight practices this week in five days. Today would've been nine.
"So we're going to give them tomorrow off and come in and watch video. The good news is we didn't get anybody hurt today. And we got 70-something snaps. That's valuable. And as you guys can see, the goal today was to scrimmage the backups. And what you got out there was backup football today. Didn't know what the hell was going to happen. We throw it, we catch it, sometimes we don't, guy catches it (and) gets hit ... that's the reason why they're backups. And that's why we're trying to develop those guys and see who's going to come on.
"There were some guys out there that made good plays. De'Vante Harris continues to hold his own. I thought our linebackers were better today and our front was better. (Jonathan) Mathis makes a difference; we held (Kirby) Ennis today for a reason. We'll get both of those guys in there and, obviously, (Spencer) Nealy is playing really well. So there's some good things, from what I saw today. I have to watch the video and see much more."
On whether the defense is progressing to what he called the 'how-to-do' phase, out of the 'what-to-do' one...Sumlin: "(Chuckle) Yeah, we're not a sit-there-and-watch-it defense — and we can't be. We're not going to make excuses for what we have up front. We've got to play with what we have. And so we've got to be creative. I think our defensive staff is doing that. You can see we've got multiple fronts and we're moving around. I like it being active. And it creates problems for us, particularly with that second group of O-linemen who have to block all that.
"And you see the big difference in why guys are starting and why guys aren't."
On Matt Joeckel's day and whether there's a battle for the backup spot...Sumlin: "It's going to continue all year. I told you at the beginning, all three of those guys have played well. The key is, they're competitors. They understand. They're all still going to get better. You never know when your chance is going to come. They know that and Johnny knows that. You can do one of two things. You can take where you are in life and try to improve it, or you can hang your head and say that's that. And these guys aren't doing that.
"We've got a couple positions out there right now that, if they were competing at the level the quarterbacks are at right now, we'd be alright. There are some guys that have accepted their roles and that's disappointing."
On what role Gaston Lamascus can play this year...Sumlin: "I don't know. As long as he can be consistent, he's got a chance to maybe help us. And that's all we're looking for. We've got some guys that, for whatever reason, are playing well and others get stuck out there and we don't know what they're going to do. And that's not good. And because of that, they won't play.
"As long as a guy is consistent with what he's doing and we can trust him and he's playing with an effort, he'll give us a chance. So whether you're on scholarship or a walk-on, the guys that do what we ask at a high effort level are going to play."
On Trey Williams and how he showed today...Sumlin: "Well, did you like last week? Or this week? (Smirk.) He got tired today. He was tired and got run down from behind; I'll give him a hard time for that. He's a good player, and we gave Brandon (Williams) ... I don't know what his status is going to be, but (Williams) fumbled going in for a touchdown. That could be a 14-point swing. That's a scoop, pick-it-up, nobody down there and you could run 100 yards. And it's a hit he didn't have to (take). He plays so hard, he veered back into a guy, tried to run him over, he doesn't need to do that. Just score.
"All these are learning situations that we try to get guys in. But (it was) a good hit from our defense. We missed tackles early and the most disappointing thing, I'd say, was the number of penalties. But there were some things going on out there that were kind of iffy. We'll work on that."
On where Deshazor Everett is fitting best in his mind...Sumlin: "There's no doubt he's going to be on the field. It's just where. He's a really good corner, but he's a physical guy in the middle of the field. (The caused fumble) is a play that, if he's at corner, who knows if he's going to be able to make that hit in the middle of the field. So we've got to get our four or best five guys on the field. There's no doubt he's going to be one of them. We held Steven Campbell today. He's been doing a great job for us. I think Steven Terrell is coming on. But we held Campbell.
"And we've got to just figure out who the fourth and fifth pieces are. Toney Hurd's working pretty well at nickel."
On moving to a more team-oriented phase after lots of practices...Sumlin: "I think so. We're getting back to one practice a day. Getting through camp, really scrimmaging and going two hours in full pads last night, then coming out here today, the energy level really showed. But we've got to fight through that. That's where you have to be a tough team physically and mentally. That's the reason we did that. Just to let them know you can do it, but you've got to create your own energy.
"Our team didn't do that today and that's a learning experience. You can't play this game at a high level without emotion. We lacked that today."
On whether the NCAA's delay on the Brandon Williams decision is frustrating him and if he knows anything new...Sumlin: "No. And it's not frustrating. We'll figure it out. I'm sure we'll hear something this week."

Hello! I'm back here again. I'll try to post more starting with this one. So cool because I was wearing a Blondie shirt and coincidentally Vanessa Hudgens' character in the movie was named Blondie. Spent the day at Rockwell with my siblings. We watched Sucker Punch. It was a kick ass movie. Don't care what the reviews say, action movies are the best! I also loved the actors in it, the soundtrack, and the graphics. BEYOND AMAZING!!! Oh, and the main reason I wanted to see it was because of EMILY BROWNING! Anyway, you should all go watch the movie and enjoy it as much as I did. :)

County Commissioners Court voted 4 to 1 to approve moving forward with the construction schedule of the popular East Side park. The park is receiving $6.9 million in renovations.
Under the schedule, the T-ball fields should reopen in March, though other portions of the park such as the softball fields will remain closed through at least September 2013.
Commissioner Sergio Lewis voted against the schedule, saying there were unanswered questions about what would happen to the numerous teams that would be displaced during construction.
Officials said they would work to accommodate the teams at Ascarate Park, as well as work with city parks officials to find other fields that can fit the displaced teams into their schedules.

An off-duty Department of Social Services worker was the catalyst for a months-long investigation into possibly food stamp fraud that culminated Sunday with the arrest of a Sampson County man on multiple felony charges.
Felipe Pablo Mendoza, 32, of 9496 Garland Highway, Clinton, now faces six counts of buy/sell/distribute food stamps, all felonies. Clinton Police officials say they don't anticipate any further charges to be lodged nor any more arrests made in the case.
Mendoza is charged with allowing others to use his DSS assigned EBT card to purchase grocery items for a fee.
The Electronic Benefit Transfer is an electronic system that allows state welfare departments to issue benefits via a magnetically encoded payment card. Benefits provided via EBT are typically of two general categories: food and cash benefits. Food benefits are federally authorized benefits that can be used only to purchase food and non-alcoholic beverages. Food benefits are distributed through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly the Food Stamp Program. Cash benefits include state general assistance, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) benefits and refugee benefits.
"He (Mendoza) was letting people use his card to buy grocery items, and they'd pay him a fee to use it. They'd get groceries and he'd get the cash benefit from allowing them to use it."
Mendoza is accused of trading the card for cash on six different occasions, beginning back in 2009. King could not give a specific amount of money that Mendoza made, but did say the charges against him involved less than a total $500.
City investigators were brought into the probe on April 11, but Clinton Detective Sgt. Robbie King said DSS workers had begun an investigation months before, diligently delving into the case.
"They did a great deal of work on their end first," King stressed, tipping his hat to DSS staff for their diligence in investigating and preparing a case. "They did a great job."
In fact, King said, it was a DSS worker who first alerted others at the agency of the potential fraud. "One of the DSS staff actually was in a place of business one day and witnessed what was going in." That, he said, is what prompted the investigation.
Mendoza was placed under a $30,000 bond at the time of his arrest but has since been released. He is expected to make his first appearance in Sampson District Court July 18.

Landry Fields is the steal of the draft and the early front runner for the Rookie of the Year award. Preseason front runner John Wall has struggled to stay healthy, while Blake Griffin in my mind is in his second season so that leaves Landry Fields as the front runner. The intangibles that Fields brings to the court are something that his numbers do not reflect (11 ppg, 9 rpg, 1.6 spg and .4 bpg) even though he is nearly averaging a double/double. However, whenever there is a lose ball there is Fields diving for it, whenever there's a long rebound there's Fields around the ball, and whenever there's a fast break there's Fields getting the nice feed from Raymond Felton (see video below).
**Side note DO NOT PUT FIELDS IN A MELO TRADE!!!**
Bottom line is the Knicks have won nine straight and they have two major tests this week hosting Boston and Miami (both games on ESPN as well as MSG). The world will now get to see just how valuable a player Landry Fields is.
Not to mention the Knicks can earn some serious respect this week with two solidly played games and at least one win. They are calling it "Dream Week" I am calling it "Respect Week" if you want it you have to earn it....LET'S GO KNICKS!!!

30 July 2013 14:13 [Source: ICIS news]
LONDON (ICIS)--Ecolab's 2013 second-quarter net income jumped 16% year on year to $213.1m (€159.8m), as sales rose 13%, the US-based water and energy services and water chemicals firm said on Tuesday.
Sales in the second quarter increased to $3.34bn from $2.96bn in the same period of 2012, while operating income rose 8% year on year to $352.3m.
Ecolab said its second-quarter earnings improved because of better-than-expected results from recently acquired Champion Technologies, continued margin gains and improving underlying sales growth, as well as a lower tax rate.
Douglas Baker Jr, Ecolab's chairman and CEO, said: "We successfully strengthened our underlying business momentum through good new business gains, effective deployment of new programme launches which enabled us to further help our customers meet their operating and sustainability goals, and continued delivery of committed synergies.
"In addition, our newly acquired Champion business performed above our expectations, which added to an already strong performance."
Ecolab has increased its 2013 full-year adjusted earnings per share (EPS) forecast to the $3.48-3.56 range, representing a 17-19% increase over the prior year. Ecolab previously forecast 2013 EPS in a $3.45-3.55 range.
"In order to grow, we know we must continue to generate new business with both new and existing customers. The only way to reliably do that is to continue to increase our capabilities as a supplier in ways that make a difference for our customers," said Baker.
"This means continuing our focus on developing and deploying technology that matters, continuing to develop our ability to meet our customer's service needs around the world, continuing to build our team and continuing to streamline our operations to be more effective, efficient and responsive."

Wow! Wow! Wow! - Wonderful stay - owner was great!
I was a little hesitant booking this since it didn't have any reviews and it had just been put up for rent, but after talking with Karen on the phone, I could tell she was honest and would be very helpful during our stay. She lives very close by and was able to meet us to give us the keys and walk us through the condo and all of the on-site amenities.
The condo is very well decorated, clean and the complex has a ton of great amenities. It's great because it's SO close to everything in Scottsdale. The condo also has a parking space really close by. We'll definitely be back again next year!

Latest Transiting extrasolar planets Stories
Yikes. Astronomers recently discovered that a distant exoplanet has one of the most hostile atmospheres known to man, with wind speeds of more than 620 miles per hour and temperatures of greater than 5400 degrees F.
Using observations from the NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, a team of astronomers has managed to create the most detailed map ever of an exoplanet's air temperature and water vapor, officials from the US space agency announced Thursday.
WASHINGTON, Oct.
In a feat of long-distance detection, astronomers led by experts at the University of Maryland have found water vapor in the atmosphere of a Neptune-sized planet nearly 729 trillion miles from
Astronomers using data from three of NASA's space telescopes -- Hubble, Spitzer and Kepler -- have discovered clear skies and steamy water vapor on a gaseous planet outside our solar system.
A planet may be causing the star it orbits to act much older than it actually is, according to new data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. This discovery shows how a massive planet can affect the behavior of its parent star.
Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have gone looking for water vapor in the atmospheres of three planets orbiting stars similar to the sun -- and have come up nearly dry.
Thanks to NASA's Kepler and Spitzer Space Telescopes, scientists have made the most precise measurement ever of the radius of a planet outside our solar system.
Astronomers announced on Monday that they have discovered a new type of planet - a rocky world weighing 17 times as much as Earth.
Astronomers, publishing a paper in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, say they have detected water on an exoplanet outside our solar system. The team of scientists say they believe they have detected...

Camry battles spruced-up rivals in midsize market
Tuesday - 4/2/2013, 4:40am EDT
AP Auto Writer
DETROIT (AP) -- For nearly two decades, the Toyota Camry and the Honda Accord have ruled the mid-sized car market.
Nobody accused them of being stylish or fast. But the cars rarely broke down, and they held their value better than competitors. For drivers who wanted a family car, Camry and Accord got the job done and were good enough to become two of the best-selling cars of all time.
But now the dominance is starting to slip. Cars like the Hyundai Sonata, Ford Fusion, Nissan Altima and Kia Optima have cut into sales of the Camry and Accord by offering combinations of sleeker designs, luxury-car features and better gas mileage.
The competition has shaken up the biggest segment of the U.S. auto market. The completely redesigned vehicles have made midsize cars appealing to a broader audience, from young families to downsizing baby boomers to people who want the look and feel of luxury but don't want the cost. Midsize cars accounted for almost 25 percent of the total industry in February, up from 22 percent at the end of 2007. Automakers report March sales on Tuesday.
Differences in quality and reliability in midsize cars have all but been erased, so buyers now look at styling and performance, industry analysts say. That puts added pressure on Toyota and Honda to stay ahead, but also on the other automakers, because brand loyalty isn't what it used to be. Every time a new, sleeker car comes out, many buyers flock to it. As a result, automakers are redesigning midsize cars in about half the usual time.
"Your latest and greatest are the ones that are selling the most," said Glenn Mears, owner of Chrysler, Ford, Honda and Nissan dealerships in the Dover, Ohio, area south of Cleveland.
Sales figures show how tough the competition has gotten for Camry and Accord, still the two top-selling cars in the U.S.
The Camry's annual sales have fallen by more than 68,000 since 2007, while Accord sales have dropped by more than 60,000. Five years ago, Camry and Accord combined sold 865,339 cars, accounting for almost a quarter of the midsize segment. But last year they slipped to just over 20 percent on sales of 736,758, according to Autodata Corp.
The Camry, last redesigned in 2011, has all the newest bells and whistles inside, such as a touch-screen and voice command system, but isn't as sleek-looking on the outside as its rivals. Still, Toyota doesn't plan any major styling changes to the Camry because there's no sense messing with the success of a car with sales over 400,000 per year, said Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American chief executive.
Lentz said that because other automakers improved their cars, Camry sales won't grow much in the near term, even though the market for midsize cars is getting bigger.
"So the pie is getting larger. Because of the increase in competition, our share of that pie is getting smaller," he said.
Honda came out with a well-received redesign of the Accord last year, and it's gaining ground on the midsize leader. While Camry outsold Accord by 70,000 last year, the Accord's percentage gain was bigger, 40 percent to 31 percent for the Camry. The large gains reflect the automakers' recovery from the earthquake in Japan in 2011.
Sales of the Camry fell in February, the second decline in three months. Accord sales rose 35 percent in February and trailed Camry by just 3,271.
Ford's Fusion has moved into third place. The fully revamped car hit showrooms in September, with a European design that looks like an Aston-Martin.
That style led Susie Gates of suburban Dallas to lease a Fusion in February because it stood out from the Sonata and Camry, she said.
"It just seems like everyone and their mom has one," she said of the Camry. "There was nothing exciting about it."
Gates, 37, who works for a service that helps people having trouble paying their mortgages, is at an age where people typically would buy a Camry or Accord. She says her pearl-white 2013 Fusion turns heads.
"It's just absolutely gorgeous," she said.
That wasn't a term associated with midsize cars until Hyundai remade the Sonata in April 2010. The hard angles were gone. Car reviewers said it had a sculpted exterior that gave the appearance of a car in motion even when parked. Sales rose 15 percent by the end of 2011.
But Sonata's numbers haven't been quite as pretty lately. Sales were off 8 percent in February compared with the same month a year earlier, and have declined in five of the past seven months. The reason: Designs in the midsize market are changing so fast that analysts say the Sonata now seems dated. And Altima sales fell 16 percent last month, even though a brand-new design came out last summer.

Much cheaper and less frustrating than buying a couple stockers every season! If you were that worried about it, you could Heli-coil the female threads on the frame bracket side and use a grade 8 (or F9-11) bolt there too, I wonder what the weak link would be then?
Maybe I should install weaker handlebars so that I don't break my bar mounts again? Then I could just carry spare low quality parts with me? Not likely.
I agree with Christophe on this one.
Once you've had some frame damage resulting from a twisted pedal or footpeg, you'd do the same ...
The bike prior to this one was written off for this reason - in this country, you can't re-register a bike that has had any form of frame damage - end of bike, which fortunately was reimbursed by the other party's insurance ...
Aside from that, damage to attachment points is generally not repairable in the bush - which can be a major issue ...
Softer levers can generally be re-bent several times before they break - and generally last several years ...

Self-Guided Walking Tour of Fiesole
Hi everyone! I always enjoy catching the #7 up to Fiesole, but after admiring the view and enjoying the piazza a bit, I am kind of at a loss as to what to do next and just end up riding the bus back down to Florence. Does anyone have a good idea for a walking tour of Fiesole? Where do you usually walk to and what else is there to see? Does anyone have street by street suggestions like Rick sometimes provides in his books for self-guided walks? I am sure there are companies that provide such tours, but I would rather so it myself. Thanks!!

Stunning architecture and cheap beer are the top reasons cited for a trip to Prague; an international ad campaign, EU accession and the continuing rise of budget airlines and stag parties make sure the city's hotels remain booked solid.
Prague In Your Pocket is your one stop resource for finding a hotel room or to see what else this fine city has to offer. If you have a couple extra days, try to make it north and east to the interesting region around Liberec.

Historic Hunt-Phelan home up for sale in Memphis
The 174-year-old Hunt-Phelan Home went up for sale Tuesday for $2.865 million through an international real estate firm marketing the property for its Civil War history, hotel possibilities and move-in-ready condition.
"It's plug-and-play ready," said Henry Stratton, vice president of brokerage services for Colliers International. The home was last open to the public as the Inn at Hunt-Phelan, a bed-and-breakfast operation with a four-star restaurant run by a New Orleans chef. The house includes five upstairs suites and six condominiums built alongside the main house on the 6.5-acre grounds.
Stratton said the home's most practical use would be as a hotel in easy walking distance of FedExForum and the Beale Street entertainment district.
Built in 1838 with a fortune made in the barrel stave industry, the 10,000-square-foot main house has remained in the same family for five generations. During the Civil War, Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant occupied the home briefly while planning the Battle of Vicksburg. He used the home's library as his office but slept in a tent on the lawn as a bond with his troops. The home became a temporary hospital and camp during the war but was returned to its then-owner, Col. William Richardson Hunt, by President Andrew Johnson after the war.
Johnson, Grant, President Andrew Jackson and Confederate President Jefferson Davis all are believed to have spent nights in the home.
Current owner Bill Day inherited the property in 1992 from his cousin, Stephen Phelan.
"It was ready for the wrecking ball then," says Day, a construction company owner who did much of the work to renovate the home at 533 Beale. The roof was replaced after severe storms last year.
It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, making it eligible for tax
credits and other development incentives. It became a tourist attraction in 1996, when it opened with the help of Elvis Presley Enterprises, operator of Graceland, the country's second most visited home after the White House. Hunt-Phelan drew 58,000 visitors the first year, but the number dropped to 21,000 the next year. Graceland pulled out after four years.
Day shut down the tourist operation and auctioned most of the furnishings, including an extensive library and period furnishings. He later added the condominium complex with 12 units. Six of those sold, and Day used the other six to supplement the bed-and-breakfast operation.
"It's been a wonderful thing for our family to own the property. We want it to continue to be a great property for Memphis and for Downtown," Day said Tuesday. He said the property appraised for $5.2 million in 2006, but the real estate crash that came with the recession reduced the appraisal and asking price.
Stratton said the property was recently privately appraised at about $2.7 million.
Day had explored the possibility of turning Hunt-Phelan into an arts collaborative, involving the city and an assortment of arts organizations, including decorative and performing arts groups, but the idea failed to take hold.
Stratton, whose company has a branch office in Memphis, said the company has 522 offices in 62 countries. He said Hunt-Phelan will be promoted around the world and "is a fantastic site for corporate board meetings, weddings, family reunions and things of that nature."

Fiberglass (delamination??) repair
Repair:.... make a tiny hole to inject the mixed resin with a large plastic syringe. If you have access to a paramedic or nurse or physician.. get a very large bore hypodermic needle to attach to the syringe. Make a very teeny hole to allow air venting while you inject. Mix up the resin and push it in with the loaded syringe. Keep the injection holes as absolutely as small as you can... less surface repair.
Tape over the whole area with masking tape before you inject so you dont ''spill'' resin on the surface.
Airex is ''plastic foam'' used for core material... You could also have balsa core.... Airex seems to bond less well than balsa.
Good luck.

Is there is a book that is more deeply dishonest than Hayek's "Road to Serfdom"? Towards the end of his life Hayek visited Pinochet's Chile and - toasting traitors, rapists, torturers, and murderers - he thanked them for restoring "economic liberty". In 1943 he was more circumspect:
It is important to remember that for some time before 1933 Germany had reached a stage in which it had, in effect, had to be governed dictatorially. Nobody could then doubt that for the time being democracy had broken down, and that sincere democrats like Bruning were no more able to govern democratically than Schleicher or von Papen. Hitler did not have to destroy democracy; he merely took advantage of the decay of democracy and at the critical moment obtained the support of many to whom, though they detested Hitler, he yet seemed the only man strong
enough to get things done.
The whole pitch of "Road to Serfdom" is that economic planning by government sets the stage for Stalinist or Nazi tyranny - that well meaning or duplicitous reformers start a nation down this road to totalitarianism with their irresponsible talk of day care centers and public works. But what Hayek means by liberty or democracy has nothing to do with enlightenment values of universal human rights. Hayek exploits the ambiguity between the old use of liberty by European monarchists and aristocrats to mean "power and privilege" and the use by Enlightenment figures like Diderot, Locke and Mill so that he can disguise his actual political view. Only when he extolled the Pinochet government for restoring economic liberty or dared to say that the terrorist Schleicher was unable to govern Weimar Germany democratically does Hayek open the door to a little truth
More recently I have not been able to find a single person even in much maligned Chile who did not agree that personal freedom was much greater under Pinochet than it had been under Allende - Letter to the London Times, F. A. Hayek July 11, 1978.
Here is the testimony of a guest of the Pinochet government about the personal freedom she enjoyed.
Then they called my father and began torturing him in front of me so that I would talk. They beat him and used electric shocks, but they still went on hitting me.
"1 finally lost consciousness. Then they brought in my brother and did the same thing to him. This went on from about 3 in the afternoon until 9 in the morning, "Then they began to cut my body. They pulled my nipples violently and they cut me with knives and razor blades. They put metal objects and their hands into my vagina, then more electric shocks — always blindfold except when they had me watching them torture my father and brother.
"They brought in my father and brother again and wanted us to have sexual relations. I screamed, and finally I fainted, They kept hitting me, my head and ears. I am still deaf and my head is full of strange noises.
"Then they threw me onto a mattress and raped me, I fainted. I don't know how many of them were there. [cite]
"I have not been able to find a single person even in much maligned Chile who did not agree that personal freedom was much greater under Pinochet than it had been under Allende."
Hayek's defenders are apt to claim that when he was defending people who engaged in "economic liberty" he was 80 years old and such a minor oversight should not be used to invalidate his lifelong commitment to liberty as it is normally understood. But look at that passage from Road to Serfdom above and pick out the name Schleicher, one of the well intentioned people, according to Hayek, were unable to govern Germany democratically.
Freikorps were the brainchild of Major Kurt von Schleicher. The Freikorps were also called the "Black Reichswehr" (Black Army) for they were a 'secret' army outside the bounds of the Versailles Treaty. The idea was developed after the failure of an army unit to quell a small rebellion in Berlin at the Battle of the Schloss. The army unit, when confronted by a socialist group with women and children, threw down their weapons and either ran away or joined the protest group. This led Major von Schleicher to conceive an alternative to using Reichswehr units to quell "red" (socialist or communist) uprisings. He suggested to his superiors to form volunteer units recruited from the old Reichswehr and commanded by former Imperial officers under governmental control. This way the Reichswehr would avoid the stigma of having to fire on civilians and the government would be financially supporting these freikorps, leaving the Reichswehr to concentrate on training for real battle [Wikipedia]
Schleicher tried to govern Germany "democratically" by setting up state sponsored paramilitary groups that would not balk at shooting women and children who were protesting. We can see the same attitude in Hayek's frankly Orwellian "history" of 19th Century British Liberalism (this is the European use of "liberal" not the American one).
It is significant that this change in the trend of ideas has coincided with a reversal of the direction in which ideas have travelled in space. For over two hundred years English ideas had been spreading eastwards. The rule of freedom which had been achieved in England seemed destined to spread throughout the world. By about 1870 the reign of these ideas had probably reached its easternmost expansion. From then onwards it began to retreat and a different set of ideas, not really new but very old, began to advance from the East.
The Rule of Freedom which had been achieved in England was so extensive that the army was called out to suppress the Chartist movement. This movement had the following dangerous demands:
- Institution of a secret ballot
- General elections be held annually
- Members of Parliament not be required to own property
- MPs be paid a salary
- Electoral districts of equal size
- Universal male suffrage
Fortunately Personal Freedom was protected when the British Army and local paramilitary killed unarmed peaceful protesters in Manchester in 1819, many with sabres. The Chartists also opposed the Corn laws. These laws forbid the importation of grain into the United Kingdom unless the price stayed high. Funny how Hayek doesn't mention even 19th century laws regulating trade - well before the evil socialists began their assault on civilization. The Corn laws were finally repealed in 1846, which would have been good for English urban workers except that their wages then fell to match the reduced costs of grain.The falling wages of British workers were due, of course, to the Freedom of the Market, including such market forces as the Combination Acts that made bargaining for wage increases, picketing, strikes, or any other trade union activity illegal. In fact, trade union activity was a criminal conspiracy under these acts. British workers were blessed with the personal freedom to take the wages their employers offered or starve or go to jail. Only in 1870, when Hayek bemoans the retreat of the tide of Freedom was this law relaxed slightly. For workers who did not avail themselves of Freedom to Work Without Complaint, there were also those classic examples of 19th Century British Liberalism - the workhouses. In these institutions, poor people were taught the virtues of enterpreneurialism by being locked up and essentially reduced to indentured servitude and otherwise indulged in Personal Freedom:
Andover had a reputation for being an extremely strict workhouse, largely due its fearsome Master Colin McDougal, a former sergeant-major who had fought at Waterloo in 1815. His wife, Mary Ann, was a force to be reckoned with and was once described by the Chairman of the Guardians as "a violent lady". The McDougals ran the workhouse like a penal colony, keeping expenditure and food rations to a minimum, much to the approval of the majority of the Guardians. Inmates in the workhouse had to eat their food with their fingers, and were denied the extra food and drink provided elsewhere at Christmas or for Queen Victoria's coronation. Any man who tried to exchange a word with his wife at mealtimes was given a spell in the refractory cell. Work, too, was hard for the inmates. The workhouse's favoured occupation for able-bodied men was the strenuous task of crushing old bones to turn them into fertilizer. In 1845, rumours began to spread in the neighbourhood that men in the workhouse bone-yard were so hungry that they had resorted eating the tiny scraps of marrow and gristle attached to the old bones they were supposed to be crushing. Fighting had almost broken out when a particularly succulent bone came their way. cite
Rape was also common in workhouses, although I have not seen any documentation of Pinochet style Personal Rape Freedom with metal objects and such like. According to Hayek, this world of workhouses and combination acts was one in which the government did not interfere with individual liberty.
It must also not be forgotten that socialism is not only by far the most important species of collectivism or "planning"; but that it is socialism which has persuaded liberal-minded people to submit once more to that regimentation of economic life which they had overthrown because, in the words of Adam Smith, it puts governments in a position where "to support themselves they are obliged to be oppressive and tyrannical".
If we are going to talk about personal freedom in the United Kingdom in the 19th century we can't forget the Irish potato famine of the 1840s in which 1 million Irish people freely starved to death and a million more emigrated while Ireland remained a net food exporter. Apparently free Irish peasants, whose land had been freely appropriated and given away to British landlords by the British Army freely expired after freely choosing not to eat food. The Irish were not the only beneficiaries of the rule of Freedom. Think of the lucky Indians who got to labor in British government opium fields or purchase opium from the government monopoly! When the British Army and the East India Company (a government monopoly) extended the rule of freedom east to India, imposing punitive taxes on Indian peasants to pay for it all, the Indian share of the world economy went from 22% in 1700 to 3.8% by 1952! And the Chinese also benefited from the rule of Freedom when the British navy burned Chinese cities and extorted both blackmail payments and opening of China to sales of opium grown by the British government monopoly on confiscated lands in India! How lucky they were not to be oppressed by socialists.
So we see that in Pinochet's Chile, in Weimar, and in 19th Century British Imperium, the use of state violence to suppress workers demands for living wages and participation in government is Freedom but things like government health care and housing assistance are "oppressive and tyrannical". This is how Hayek puts it:
The question is whether for this purpose it is better that the holder of coercive power should confine himself in general to creating conditions under which the knowledge and initiative of individuals is given the best scope so that they can plan most successfully; or whether a rational utilisation of our resources requires central direction and organisation of all our activities according to some consciously constructed "blueprint"
The knowledge and initiative of poor people in the UK apparently was given the best possible scope when cavalry attacked them with swords or they were put to work crushing bones in a workhouse or left to die of starvation in Ireland while soldiers guarded the export storehouses. Apparently combination acts and Opium Wars are not despotic central planning any more than military coups and shoving metal into the vaginas of prisoners. No "blueprint" though, so it's all good. Arbeit macht frei.

Has anyone else noticed the difference between Chrome and Safari?
My workplace's wifi is hit and miss but I have found that chrome seems to handle this alot better than safari if the wifi drops for a few seconds.
Is it because chrome loads web pages differently?
|May 24, 2013, 06:14 PM
Good question. I wonder if Chrome is more flexible at short loss of connection? Maybe Safari just depends too much on the TCP/IP stack performing perfectly.
|May 26, 2013, 02:56 AM
Chrome was developed with speed in mind and I have noticed the same thing on the PC, ipad and iphone. I expect it is entirely down to the way it renders web pages.
As Chrome was designed to be multi platform and available on mobile platforms it seems to be able to handle time outs far better. Safari will often refuse to load the page within a very short period of time, where as Chrome is also far more patient.
Either way, in my opinion Safari is junk compared to Chrome so stick with Chrome. Google isn't all evil, just mostly...
Edit - Google safari timeout and you'll see loads of people complaining about just this!
|May 30, 2013, 11:25 AM
I believe it stems from Chrome's multi-process method. It schedules HTTP requests differently than Safari or Firefox, and also uses multiple streams to pull web site elements. I've noticed that Safari will hang on certain pages that pull ad graphics from off-site ad servers, like it suspends rendering until the graphic is loaded so it knows how to render the rest of the page without having to move elements around. I resolved most of these issues by changing my backup DNS server to 22.214.171.124 as my ISP's DNS will timeout from time to time.
While Chrome's multi-process method may be more secure, it gobbles resources. Just running the Macrumors front page, Chrome has 3 processes (Chrome, Chrome Worker, and Chrome Renderer) running 54 threads. Firefox has 1 process with 28 threads, Safari has 2 processes and 30 threads.
Every tab in Chrome runs it's own process and I've seen it eat over 1Gb of RAM just for 3 or 4 tabs, especially if you're streaming Flash. I usually run the audio feed from a local radio station in background... all day Just running Chrome with an empty page will drive my CPU temp up 20 degrees over what Safari or Firefox. Streaming video (like CNN Live Feed) and my MB Air will get up to 215F and the fans running full blast. The same feed with Safari will max at 175F, no fans.

REGION: Judge's numbers at center of DA dispute
Tranbarger began tracking convictions in criminal cases in 2006
Tranbarger began keeping track in early 2006, while supervising the Riverside court's criminal division.
"I received anecdotal evidence from my colleagues that criminal jury guilty verdicts were plunging," Tranbarger wrote. "Because of the important relationship between jury verdicts and court congestion, and because of the inherent imprecision of anecdotal evidence, I began keeping precise records of all jury verdicts on all cases that passed through my master calendar department in Riverside."
Tranbarger said the anecdotal evidence was partially confirmed.
But, he added, "The differences were not as dramatic as our subjective memories would have predicted."
