CFN Recruiting Rankings
21. West Virginia
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 21
West Virginia recruits about as well as any other Big East school, which will be a boon to head coach Bill Stewart. The competition at quarterback begins with freshman Geno Smith, who benefited most when Jarrett Brown was injured.
The Mountaineers get RB Noel Devine back, and now the program
has its feature runner to go along with star target
Jock Sanders. However, if head coach Bill Stewart can't bring a title back to Morgantown in his third year, the locals could start getting a little antsy.
31. Pitt
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 14
Like every program, there'll be holes that need to be filled, but as long as Dave Wannstedt keeps recruiting well and Dion Lewis keeps running, Pitt is in good shape. Both lines used plenty of seniors, so they'll get extra attention when the team reconvenes in the spring. Most of the headlines at that time will focus on the replacement for QB Bill Stull, who exceeded all expectations as a senior. Tino Sunseri has the early edge, but he could get challenged by veteran Pat Bostick.
35. Cincinnati
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 6
Now what? Brian Kelly was the architect of Cincinnati's recent ascent, but now that he's in South Bend, it's a lot to ask for the program to continue to keep up the success at the same rate. Replacing him will be Butch Jones, who like Kelly also succeeded him at Central Michigan. His challenging goal of keeping the program on the rails and in the national conscience will be aided by the half-year of experience QB Zach Collaros received last fall.
36. Rutgers
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 32
If Cincinnati suffers a setback from the departure of Brian Kelly, the Big East will once again be up for grabs. The Scarlet Knights hope to be in a position to take advantage. The offense is in good hands with QB Tom Savage, who should be even better in his second year. Greg Schiano's priority will be retooling a defense that's losing five key regulars to graduation.
37. Connecticut
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 36
After three consecutive winning seasons and bowl games, Randy Edsall has positioned the Huskies to keep those trends going and avoid prolonged rebuilding periods. RB Jordan Todman returns, as does QB Zach Frazer, who started looking comfortable in the system as the season wound down. Even without leading pass rusher Lindsey Witten, the front seven ought to be fantastic, especially with the return of linebackers Lawrence Wilson, Greg Lloyd, and Scott Lutrus.
61. South Florida
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 50
In terms of 2010, the Bulls caught a break that QB B.J. Daniels got a full season of reps. He has the skill set of a future star. He'll be helped if Mike Ford can run the way he did in Toronto, gashing Northern Illinois for more than 200 yards in the International Bowl. The defense will likely endure some serious growing pains, especially after star DE Jean Pierre-Paul decided to bolt for the NFL and left South Florida with just a couple of returning starters.
66. Syracuse
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 79
Now that the awkward transition period is in the rear view mirror, head coach Doug Marrone should be able to build on the ground level that was framed in 2009. Both sides of the ball will be returning enough starters and lettermen to avoid a regression, especially with another recruiting class set to hit campus. Ryan Nassib is expected to take over at quarterback, where he'll be joined in the backfield by 1,000-yard rusher Delone Carter.
80. Louisville
2009 Final CFN Ranking: 86
There's absolutely no reason this program can't once again be where Cincinnati, Pitt, and West Virginia are today. It's just going to take time to build everything back up, especially with mediocre personnel for new head man Charlie Strong to work with. Long considered one of the nation's top defensive coordinators and an ace recruiter, he brought in a terrific class this year and appears to have things pointed in the right direction. Strong will have access to one dynamic playmaker that Steve Kragthorpe saw sparingly last fall—RB Victor Anderson. The Cardinals best offensive weapon, he was injured for most of 2009, but will be 100% in time to be the workhorse for the new staff.

Are you sick of having a computer case that doesn't make much of a statement? Do you want your room to look like something straight out of a gamer's den? Logisys realizes that some of you do, so they make clear acrylic cases to fit your needs.
I was very impressed with the fit and finish of the rear PCI slot covers. They did line up perfectly with my slots on the motherboard, and were also done in a chrome finish… a nice small touch.
Here's the finished product. (Yes, the side is on.)
Cable management is a bit of an issue, for reasons stated earlier. I finally decided that no matter what I tried, it wasn't going to look great, so I just went for an approach that would create a minimum of air flow disturbance. Zip ties are an essential for any builder. I just tried to keep them all as close to the motherboard as possible, and out of the way of the front intake fan's airflow. Here is a closer look at why hiding extra cables behind the motherboard will not work:
And some pictures of it in the dark, fully assembled.
Not too bad, and not near as "ricey" as I was expecting. I will figure out how to use my camera more effectively in the future! It is actually brighter than this, but again, not overpowering. I do like the "ripple effect" that the front fan gives the hard drive cage, because of the thicker acrylic sections.

Yikes, that's just bad. Here's what I submitted to them and I encourage everybody else to write at least something to put your vote in:
I would like to put my vote in to strongly encourage a proper study into the severe effects this will have on the local environment. With a capacity of upwards of 388 boats, there is no way the cove can handle that kind of discharge of gray or even black water, there will be all kinds of "accidents" and the whole area will just become completely inhospitable to any marine life. This is not the way to "develop" such a pristine area, you might as well just pave over the whole area and invite every car around to idle there for the summer.
People don't go to this area to congregate in large groups and watch the environment be destroyed for the mighty dollar. This area should be heavily protected and nurtured for future generations, not developed for 1/10th of a generation to create irreparable repercussions for future generations.

Alberta Energy Regulator unlikely to advance public interest – new report
Single regulator makes it easier for industry, but maintains old barriers to public participation
A new fact sheet released this morning by the Parkland Institute finds that Alberta's new energy regulator, the AER, will do very little to improve Albertans' abilities to have a say in how the province's energy resources, particularly its massive bitumen deposits, are developed.

Why Alberta should avoid another bitumen boom
A government that doesn't learn from its mistakes is bound to repeat them. Case in point: Alberta's provincial government, which refuses to alter its regulatory approach to the tarsands.

Alberta has a new export: the petroleum trap
Recent statements by federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty that the government's budget plans have been thrown into disarray by a decline in Alberta's oil revenues should come as no surprise. The differential between the North American benchmark price for crude and the price Alberta gets for its thicker brand of oil has been played up in recent months by the provincial Progressive Conservative government as a major cause of its fiscal woes. Now its federal counterpart is using the same argument to explain its declining revenues.

Shipping Alberta bitumen to China? It's a very slow boat
October always brings shorter days, falling leaves and the bite of frost. This year, frost in Alberta is also coming from politics, as British Columbia Premier Christy Clark digs in her heels over the proposed Northern Gateway oil pipeline to take sands oil to China.

Royalty reform long overdue
Public share of resource wealth has fallen since Lougheed era
The Wildrose party's plan to bring back "Ralph Bucks" is the splashiest example from the provincial election campaign that the leading parties appear to be putting the cart before the horse. Keen to announce plans to spend Alberta's resource wealth, they have avoided discussion on the integrity of the province's royalty system.

Alberta government set to forego $55 billion in royalties over next three years
A new report from the U of A's Parkland Institute says that despite a provincial deficit, the Alberta government will forego some $55 billion in potential revenue over the next three years as a result of overly generous royalty cuts and the government's failure to meet even the modest targets set by previous administrations.

What in tar-nation?
There's less than meets the eye to Alberta's surprising about-face on a national energy strategy.
I never thought I'd see the day when the words "national," "energy" and "strategy" would be strung together and promoted by the Alberta government. For 30 years, Pierre Trudeau's 1980 National Energy Program (NEP) had been recurrently trotted out by Alberta premiers and Calgary's oilpatch, strung up, and ritualistically pummelled.

The peer reviewed study was conducted with the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation and the Mikisew Cree First Nation. It examined traditional land and water use, and the impact of contaminants and low water levels in the lower Athabasca River system.

Searching for a reason for the Tories' royalty cuts
In an expected about-face, the Alberta government effectively reversed the widely supported royalty increases that came into effect last year. According to Energy Minister Ron Liepert, it had "nothing to do with industry running the province" but "everything to do with what constituents have been telling MLAs across this province." Except that, according to an Environics poll, a majority of Albertans—including two-thirds of Tory supporters—opposed this latest gift to the oilpatch.

Suncor's proposed buyout of Petro-Canada is being touted as a match made in Canada to create a national champion that will kick-start the oil sands.

Summer Food 7/24/13
by Thee Ted Smith
posted Jul 24 2013 2:23PM
It has been a awesome summer so far here in Seattle and the Northwest in general. I got to thinking about how some foods just seem more summer then others. Miles has been on a huge kick about corn lately and how he loves corn and thinks this is the best year ever for Corn. I just think when it gets a little warming you tend to eat different things and not others. More people I bet eat salads that generally don't since this weather says hey lets have something light. I love chicken and waffles but watching people eat that in the sun at a bar made me a little sick. Pizza is another one I love but if my place is hot I tend not to go pizza. Grilling, now grilling can be done and should be done all year around but man in the summertime it just feels right. Burgers also great summertime food, I bet maybe you have even had a smoothie that you don't usually have. When is the last time you sat around in December and said I wonder if this party will have cole slaw? You haven't because it's a summer food. So enjoy the weather and the food. We will be back to fall food soon enough

I am trying to make each and everyday special for myself and my son but Christmas should have a little extra zing to it. Yes, I do celebrate the birth of Jesus and talk about it my son but I am not fanatical. We do go through the motion of cutting down a tree but everything is simple. White lights, favorite ornaments picked out by us and a few handmade at school from my son, a few large white candles to evoke a serene calm and one large wreath decorated with the biggest bow I can find hanging on the door. I also have a pink tree in my office, decorated in all pink and white, tone on tone, for fun.
My son and I really enjoy our time together. We are going to make cookies next week and he is choosing the Christmas meal- yummy homemade mac and cheese, peas, side salad and a small ham in brown sugar and pineapple topping. Peppermint ice cream for dessert. ;) The week before, I will have his 3 friends over, giving their families time to finish up what they need to do and let my son have some boy fun. Lego's it is!!!!
Over the years, since I divorced, I have tried to make each day special and to take each holiday to bring us closer. We have decided next year to go to the beach and be camping on Christmas eve. He doesn't know it but I bought him some camping items so we can start this spring.
I don't feel the stress as in the past, when I was married and had to decorate a 1700 square foot home with items I didn't really care for. The stress of planning, cooking and cleaning up a large meal and the last minute stress of feeling like I didn't do enough, especially for the ex.
Can I add that my minimalist/simple living has allowed me to enjoy life so much more. I can feel the Spirit of Christmas moving through me more and all throughout the year. Merry Christmas y'all!!!
This precious time with my son cannot be traded for anything.
Thank you. I noticed my son does not notice all the "decor" and to get it out of his system if he did, we go to a mall and get our fill. It's nice to come home to simple and calm.
Yes, my son doesn't get into Christmas decorations much. He likes the lights of the houses we drive past at night. And he likes having a tree. But he would rather have me available to spend time with than have me putting up decorations or otherwise preparing for the holidays.
I think it's all about balance and preference. We adore the holidays, but I loathe the pressure, crazy running around, excess gifting etc so I don't participate in what doesn't add value to our lives and keep the traditions and activities that do. I think most of the pressure and stress people feel is completely self-imposed. Do what works for your family and ditch what doesn't. Simple as that!
Grace-based wife & mama to 2 unschoolers! One & . We live simply & mindfully. Expecting another blessing Feb 2015 Praying for another

Fishermen are not keen on this suggestion made by fisheries department
Tamil Nadu Principal Highways Secretary Niranjan Mardi, who is the monitoring officer for the district, has suggested that the fisheries department could encourage mechanised boat fishermen of this region to take up tuna long liner deep sea fishing to avoid conflict with the Sri Lankan navy in the long run.
Mr Mardi, who held a review meeting with District Collector K. Nanthakumar and heads of various departments at the Collectorate on Friday, made the suggestion in the backdrop of the arrest of 53 fishermen and seizure of nine of their boats by the Sri Lankan navy.
Sources in the fisheries department, however, said both mechanised and country boat fishermen have not responded favourably to the proposal of tuna long liner fishing, though the State government has offered a subsidy of Rs 5 lakh for the purpose of converting their vessels for deep sea fishing.
No fisherman has come forward to avail the subsidy and craft conversion following a Government Order in 2011, which was amended last month, sources said.
After passing the GO in 2011, the government gave administrative sanction for Rs 25 crore towards subsidy for five years and provided budgetary allocation in the budget for 2011-12.
The scheme received a lukewarm response as the fishermen needed Rs 20 lakh to convert the mechanised boats and Rs 10 lakh to convert country boat and avail the back ended subsidy, the sources said.
Moreover, fishermen of the district, who used to venture out for one-day fishing, were not mentally prepared for multi-day fishing.
"It is very difficult to change their mind set," the sources said.
For tuna long liner fishing, the mechanised boats should be 15 to 20 metre long with a 150 HP engine.
The traditional boats should be converted to 10 to 15 metre length with 10 to 15 HP engine. Both the fishermen could use 500 to 1000 kg gill net and 200 hook lines while fishing, according to the GO.
The diesel subsidy would remain at 1,500 litres per month for mechanised boats and 300 litres for country boats.
There are 1,624 mechanised and 3,066 country boats in the district.
Deep sea fishing, however, is popular in Tuticorin district.
The subsidy was made available to 100 fishermen and 84 of them availed it and converted their vessels for deep sea fishing, sources said.

VISAKHAPATNAM: Five Russian naval ships, including one missile cruiser, two destroyers, one tanker and one ocean-going tug, will arrive here for taking part in the joint naval exercise of India and Russia from Friday to October 20.
The joint exercise, christened INDRA-2005, will take off on the eastern seaboard off the Visakhapatnam coast after the first Indo-Russian bilateral naval exercise INDRA-2003 held in 2003.
INDRA-2005 will be witnessed at sea by Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee and his Russian counterpart Sergei Ivanov on October 18.
The visiting delegation will include Commander-in-Chief of Russian Navy Admiral Vladimir V. Masorin and a number of high-ranking officials.
Wider scope
The exercise is primarily aimed at enhancing mutually-beneficial cooperative engagement between the navies of the two countries.
The name INDRA is derived from India and Russia.
According to a spokesman of the Eastern Naval Command, INDRA-2005 has considerably wider scope than the last exercise.
The large fleet of Russian vessels will anchor at Visakhapatnam Naval Base on Friday. Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Pacific Fleet Vice Admiral Sergey Viktorovich Avramenko will embark on the missile cruiser `Varyag.' The officers and sailors of the participating units along with the staff of Eastern Naval Command will engage in various activities in harbour, including the pre-sailing conference on Friday and Saturday.
The exercises at sea will include various surface firing, air defence and anti-submarine warfare performances from October 17 to 19.
Debrief for the exercises is planned here on October 20.
The exercise is expected to give a new dimension to the relationship between the armed forces of the two countries towards building mutual trust and better understanding of each other.

Rib fracture after stereotactic radiotherapy for primary lung cancer: prevalence, degree of clinical symptoms, and risk factors
1 Department of Radiology, University of Yamanashi, Chuo City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan
2 Current institution: Department of Radiology, Teikyo University School of Medicine University Hospital, Mizonokuchi, Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan
3 Department of Radiology, Kofu Municipal Hospital, Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan
4 Department of Radiology, Yamanashi Prefectural Central Hospital, Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan
BMC Cancer 2013, 13:68 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-13-68Published: 7 February 2013
As stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a highly dose-dense radiotherapy, adverse events of neighboring normal tissues are a major concern. This study thus aimed to clarify the frequency and degree of clinical symptoms in patients with rib fractures after SBRT for primary lung cancer and to reveal risk factors for rib fracture. Appropriate α/β ratios for discriminating between fracture and non-fracture groups were also investigated.
Between November 2001 and April 2009, 177 patients who had undergone SBRT were evaluated for clinical symptoms and underwent follow-up thin-section computed tomography (CT). The time of rib fracture appearance was also assessed. Cox proportional hazard modeling was performed to identify risk factors for rib fracture, using independent variables of age, sex, maximum tumor diameter, radiotherapeutic method and tumor-chest wall distance. Dosimetric details were analyzed for 26 patients with and 22 randomly-sampled patients without rib fracture. Biologically effective dose (BED) was calculated with a range of α/β ratios (1–10 Gy). Receiver operating characteristics analysis was used to define the most appropriate α/β ratio.
Rib fracture was found on follow-up thin-section CT in 41 patients. The frequency of chest wall pain in patients with rib fracture was 34.1% (14/41), and was classified as Grade 1 or 2. Significant risk factors for rib fracture were smaller tumor-chest wall distance and female sex. Area under the curve was maximal for BED at an α/β ratio of 8 Gy.
Rib fracture is frequently seen on CT after SBRT for lung cancer. Small tumor-chest wall distance and female sex are risk factors for rib fracture. However, clinical symptoms are infrequent and generally mild. When using BED analysis, an α/β ratio of 8 Gy appears most effective for discriminating between fracture and non-fracture patients.

Reconstruction (2003 film)

|Christoffer Boe
Mogens Rukov

Reconstruction is the psychological romantic drama film and the debut of Christoffer Boe, who also wrote the screenplay together with Mogens Rukov. It was filmed in Copenhagen and won the Camera D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2003 Golden Plaque for Manuel Alberto Claro's luminous wide-screen cinematography.
The central character is Alex (Nikolaj Lie Kaas), a Danish photographer with a Stockholm-bred girlfriend, Simone (Maria Bonnevie).
Late one evening Alex suddenly abandons his girlfriend, Simone, to pursue the beautiful Aimee (Maria Bonnevie). In his encounter with Aimee time and place dissolve for him and he becomes a stranger to Simone, to whom he cannot return.
"It's all a film. It's all a construction," announces the narrator, who is soon revealed to be a noted Swedish author, August (Krister Henriksson), as well as the tale's apparent inventor.
The film was shot almost entirely in available light. Using available lighting is not merely stylistic. Boe doesn't work with storyboards or set schedules.[1]
They shot Super 16 on an Arri SR3 using three different stocks. Then the film was scanned, color-graded, and digitally masked to CinemaScope. The scan was a simple one-light, and the team did no color correction, the opposite of today's trend to perform a digital intermediate. They also pushed the emulsion for extra grain.[2]
- In one interview Christoffer Boe said that the film was inspired by Jacques-Henri Lartigue's photograph of a woman standing in a room with empty bookcases. "Looking at that picture, I immediately felt I wanted to do a story about a man who comes home and his apartment has disappeared. And I knew it had to be a love story".[3]
- Characters do not use mobile phones or other means of modern communication. However, the story takes place nowadays. This emphasizes the fact that the plot is artificial and constructed.
- The scene where Alex and Aimee are talking in a cafe was shot in the Bobi Bar which is one of Boe's favorite and is close to where he lives.

The word is out. The identity of the three Swiss bankers charged by the IRS of abetting wealthy US taxpayers in avoiding taxes is revealed. The three work for Switzerland's Wegelin & Co and are accused of helping US taxpayers dodge taxes on more than $1.2 billion in taxable income. The three are Michael Berlinka, Urs Frei and Roger Keller, who still remain employed at the Zurich branch of the bank.
In 2009 when the IRS began an intensive crackdown on offshore tax evasion in particular by Americans who hold Swiss bank accounts, many tax cheats fled Switzerland's larger banks like UBS AG and deposited their cash into smaller Swiss banks. St. Gallen-based Wegelin is Switzerland's oldest private bank. However, the indictment filed by US prosecutors did not name the bank, only calling it 'Swiss Bank A'.

This is the first of a regular series of posts that summarize and wrap up our latest thoughts that have appeared recently on Ifrah Law's two blogs.
1. Can Police Read a Suspect's Text Messages Without a Warrant?
What happens when the usual rules of search and seizure collide with the new world of information in which a tiny phone can hold as much data as a computer? On January 19, we looked at a California Supreme Court decision that in a warrantless police search after an arrest, a cell phone in a defendant's pocket isn't treated any differently from a pack of cigarettes or a note pad.
2. E-Cigarettes, the Internet, and the FTC
Electronic cigarettes are battery-operated nicotine delivery devices that are meant to replicate the flavor and sensation of smoking a tobacco cigarette. On January 20, we made some predictions about how the FTC will be regarding online advertising strategies for this new product and what online advertisers should do about it.
3. 'Fake' Reviews and Endorsements Catch the FTC's Attention
On January 24, we took a look at the FTC's first case that focused on "fake" product reviews and explained what this means for other affiliate marketers. The FTC alleged that a PR firm called Reverb Communications had its employees pose as ordinary consumers when they posted online iTunes product reviews and that it didn't disclose the relationship. We discuss why Reverb's settlement set important precedent for online advertisers, affiliate marketers and bloggers.
4. An Unfair Sentence for Slaughterhouse Plant Manager?
A few months ago, Sholom Rubashkin, the former plant manager at Agriprocessors, Inc., in Iowa, was sentenced to 27 years in prison for fraud in his operation of the kosher slaughterhouse. The case drew national attention. Recently, three influential legal advocacy groups filed amicus briefs in a federal appeals arguing that the sentence is excessive and urging that Rubashkin be resentenced. On January 25, we examined these amicus briefs and their arguments.

According to said friend, when Cheryl was over in the US at the beginning of the year (before being booted off the US X Factor) she was so crippled with insecurity that she could barely face leaving her hotel room and would instead sit in bed watching TV all day and night smoking.
The friend also set that Cheryl would fret constantly about her weight and would swerve frantically between fasting and binging on junk food and spoke often about being unable to take the pressure and how she desperately wished she could leave it all behind and go back to being 'normal'.
Poor Cheryl. If she is still so down in the dumps we're guessing it's not going to help her confidence or trusts issues much that her minder's 'friend' has blabbed all her secrets to the tabloids!

Nah! Not loading!!
(54 stars)
This is a really cute game, both the premise and the graphics style. However, the UI is pretty awkward and clumsy. One level (I forget which), spontaneously ended as soon as it began multiple times. Turns out the start button is right on top of a sleeping guard and tapping to begin the level was waking him up. I really wanted to love this one, but things like that make it difficult.
(54 stars)
Would give 5 stars but ads keep popping up in front of game screen.
(54 stars)
After about 30 seconds of playing the bottom two thirds of the screen turns white making the game unplayable.
(54 stars)
This game is terribly flawed. Even when you know what you are supposed to do it often will not let you. The graphics suck. The controls are awkward. Very frustrated.
(54 stars)
Please make more point-click adventure games with interesting story line like this.. I really love all your games :D
(54 stars)
But i have to rate a 4. When i open the game after about a minute or so, a big white bar blocks the bottom of the screen. I have to leave and open the game a few times for the bar to go away. Fix it and the game gets a 5+. Fun game, although not very difficult, nice graphics. Shows you don't need a huge game or amazing graphics to make a great game. Big thumbs up!

Debt limit overtaking shutdown as US crisis focus
With the threat passed, Obama said at least 100 of them have been re-furloughed.
"That's no way of doing business," he said.
Whatever the shutdown's inconveniences, it was easily rivaled by the warnings over a default, in which the United States would not be able to pay all its bills.
"A default would be unprecedented and has the potential to be catastrophic," a Treasury report said. "Credit markets could freeze, the value of the dollar could plummet, U.S. interest rates could skyrocket, the negative spillovers could reverberate around the world."
Private economists generally agree that a default on the U.S. debt would be extremely harmful, especially if the impasse was not resolved quickly.
Lew has said that while Treasury expects to have $30 billion of cash on hand on Oct. 17, that money would be quickly exhausted in paying incoming bills given that the government's payments can run up to $60 billion on a single day.

Coal Power Plants:
Opportunities Exist for DOE to Provide Better Information on the Maturity of Key Technologies to Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions
GAO-10-675: Published: Jun 16, 2010. Publicly Released: Jul 16, 2010.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3000
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Coal power plants generate about half of the United States' electricity and are expected to remain a key energy source. Coal power plants also account for about one-third of the nation's emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2 ), the primary greenhouse gas that experts believe contributes to climate change. Current regulatory efforts and proposed legislation that seek to reduce CO2 emissions could affect coal power plants. Two key technologies show potential for reducing CO2 emissions: (1) carbon capture and storage (CCS), which involves capturing and storing CO2 in geologic formations, and (2) plant efficiency improvements that allow plants to use less coal. The Department of Energy (DOE) plays a key role in accelerating the commercial availability of these technologies and devoted more than $600 million to them in fiscal year 2009. Congress asked GAO to examine (1) the maturity of these technologies; (2) their potential for commercial use, and any challenges to their use; and (3) possible implications of deploying these technologies. To conduct this work, GAO reviewed reports and interviewed stakeholders with expertise in coal technologies.
DOE does not systematically assess the maturity of key coal technologies, but GAO found consensus among stakeholders that CCS is less mature than efficiency technologies. Specifically, DOE does not use a standard set of benchmarks or terms to describe the maturity of technologies, limiting its ability to provide key information to Congress, utilities, and other stakeholders. This lack of information limits congressional oversight of DOE's expenditures on these efforts, and it hampers policymakers' efforts to gauge the maturity of these technologies as they consider climate change policies. In the absence of this information from DOE, GAO interviewed stakeholders with expertise in CCS or efficiency technologies to identify their views on the maturity of these technologies. Stakeholders told GAO that while components of CCS have been used commercially in other industries, their application remains at a small scale in coal power plants, with only one fully integrated CCS project operating at a coal plant. Efficiency technologies, on the other hand, are in wider commercial use. Commercial deployment of CCS is possible within 10 to 15 years while many efficiency technologies have been used and are available for use now. Use of both technologies is, however, contingent on overcoming a variety of economic, technical, and legal challenges. In particular, with respect to CCS, stakeholders highlighted the large costs to install and operate current CCS technologies, the fact that large scale demonstration of CCS is needed in coal plants, and the lack of a national carbon policy to reduce CO2 emissions or a legal framework to govern liability for the permanent storage of large amounts of CO2. With respect to efficiency improvements, stakeholders highlighted the high cost to build or upgrade such coal plants, the fact that some upgrades require highly technical materials, and plant operators' concerns that changes to the existing fleet of coal power plants could trigger additional regulatory requirements. CCS technologies offer more potential to reduce CO2 emissions than efficiency improvements alone, and both could raise electricity costs and have other effects. According to reports and stakeholders, the successful deployment of CCS technologies is critical to meeting the ambitious emissions reductions that are currently being considered in the United States while retaining coal as a fuel source. Most stakeholders told GAO that CCS would increase electricity costs, and some reports estimate that current CCS technologies would increase electricity costs by about 30 to 80 percent at plants using these technologies. DOE has also reported that CCS could increase water consumption at power plants. Efficiency improvements offer more potential for near term reductions in CO2 emissions, but they cannot reduce CO2 emissions from a coal plant to the same extent as CCS. GAO recommends that DOE develop a standard set of benchmarks to gauge and report to Congress on the maturity of key technologies. In commenting on a draft of this report, DOE concurred with our recommendation.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: Based in part upon our work, DOE's Office of Fossil Energy developed a system to gauge the maturity of technologies and used this system to describe coal technologies in a December 2012 report. In this report, the Office of Fossil Energy developed a set of Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) to describe the maturity of carbon capture and storage technologies and other advanced technologies for coal power plants, and used these TRLs to describe the technological maturity of 285 coal-related projects being overseen by DOE. For example, the report stated that 42 technologies were strong candidates to be demonstrated at a larger scale. In this report, the Office of Fossil Energy noted that these TRLs provide a clearer picture of the status of technologies and can be used to inform planning for future research. This office plans to provide updated status reports on coal technologies on a biannual basis.
Recommendation: To improve decision making and oversight for coal research efforts, including how technological maturity is measured and reported, the Secretary of Energy should direct the Office of Fossil Energy to develop a standard set of benchmarks to gauge the maturity of key technologies and report to Congress on the maturity of these technologies. As part of this process, the Office of Fossil Energy should consider consulting DOE's Technology Readiness Assessment Guide to develop benchmarks and reporting requirements.

NYT Columnist, Former Ambassador Stage Debate
'The U.S. Should Step Back From Its Special Relationship With Israel'
The Intelligence Squared debate series has a cool gimmick: at the beginning, audience members vote on the resolution via little keypads at each seat; at the end, they vote again; whichever side changed the most minds "wins." As last night's debate began, it was exciting to find that 25% of the crowd voted "undecided," meaning that many minds were open to persuasion as the four panelists debated the resolution, "The U.S. should step back from its special relationship with Israel."
Held at New York University's student union on the southern border of Washington Square Park, the debate, moderated by ABC News's John Donvan, pitted New York Times columnist Roger Cohen and Columbia Professor Rashid Khalidi, who defended the resolution, against former U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Stuart Eizenstat and former Israeli Ambassador to the United States Itamar Rabinovich, who opposed it. An immediately telling juxtaposition: two ultra-political-establishment figures arguing for the status quo special relationship, two relative outsiders arguing for a paradigm change.
Much of what the sides argued could be easily predicted. Cohen and Khalidi said that the United States's uniquely strong support for Israel harms U.S. interests: America wants a two-state solution; Israel's settlement policy makes that less and less likely; therefore, the United States (and U.S. tax dollars) are, effectively, bankrolling policies inimical to its own interests. Eizenstat and Rabinovich, meanwhile, are no right-wingers. But they nonetheless argued that the special relationship does serve the U.S. interest. They did so, first, by minimizing the importance of the Palestinian conflict to the United States ("It's most important for Israel, not America," Rabinovich asserted), and, second, by citing Israel's strategic location, crucial intelligence-sharing, and the rest.
On top of that, they argued, the special relationship represents a moral commitment. That's what you usually hear: pro-special relationship folks cite morality; anti-special relationship folks cite realpolitik. The most interesting thing from last night, though, was the way these were flipped. Cohen and Khalidi spoke eloquently about Palestinian suffering. And Eizenstat and Rabinovich made a compelling, classically realist case for close ties.
Eizenstat disputed that the special relationship permitted Israel to get away with not making sufficient concessions: in fact, he argued, it is precisely what enabled Israel to concede, say, the Sinai, and what will enable it to concede, say, the Golan and the West Bank. "The United States would lose the levers it has used" if it abandoned the special relationship, Eizenstat claimed. "Everyone knows only the U.S. can talk to both sides. It would lose that ability." Eizenstat also offered this (even more hardcore ideologically realist) argument: that the special relationship must continue so as to reassure other allies of America's "constancy." "It would send a chill down the spine of every ally," he said, "because they'd worry they'd be next on the chopping block." (To which Khalidi retorted: "What would happen with some of our allies? They would applaud!")
Cohen had the night's worst and best moments. The worst came after an audience member asked why, since polls routinely show most Americans favoring the special relationship, U.S. policy shouldn't reflect that. After treading dangerous ground—"There is a state called Florida," Cohen mused, arguing that electoral politics rather than popular opinion have the most influence—Cohen reported that a "reliable source" informed him that one congressperson had told Obama, "If you want your health bill, step back on Israel." "BOOOOOOO!" went the audience reply. It was a dumb line—that is a hefty charge, and the fact that the representative and the source were both unnamed gave it the aura of tossed-out half-truth—but it was also interesting to see that what most activated Israel's fans in the crowd were the sorts of charges about the Israel Lobby's influence that are best summed up with a reference to Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer's book.
But Cohen also made a devastating rhetorical move (if a more neutral substantive one) in his closing argument, when he told the crowd that to vote in favor of the resolution would constitute a "courageous" act, slowly but surely softening the stifling consensus that is so counterproductive to both America and Israel. For one moment, those little keypads felt like more than a gimmick. It was very powerful.
In the final vote, the yeas had it: 49% for, 47% against, 4% undecided (before the debate, it was 33% for, 42% against). The resolution's structure probably made it more difficult on Eizenstat and Rabinovitch: they were tasked with defending the proposition that the U.S. relationship with Israel ought to be unlike its relationship with any other country, whereas all Cohen and Khalidi had to advocate is that it be precisely like the friendly-but-not-too-friendly relations America maintains with a dozen other strong allies. Is that imbalance—the very special argumentation required to defend a very special relationship—the fault of a biased debate resolution? Or is it built into the special relationship itself?

FIGURE II-7 Gun and nongun homicide rates per 100,000 persons, 1968-2000, New York City.
SOURCE: Fagan et al., 2007; used by permission.
with regard to Hamas (Crenshaw, 2000), one would observe a time-lagged correlation between measures of communal support and measures of militant action, with attacks increasing as support for those attacks increased. We also speculated that major historical events, such as Ariel Sharon's stepping onto the Temple Mount and the construction of the security wall, would perturb the relationship between communal support and attacks. The data were more complex. While some upswings or downswings in attacks seemed explicable by reference to communal support or major historical/policy changes, an asymmetric quasi-sigmoid curve emerged that could not be accounted for entirely by these factors (see Figure II-8).
Comparing Figures II-7 and II-8, and acknowledging the major differences in the types of aggression and the methodology of data acquisition, one is at least tempted to consider the possibility that (a) contagion-like dissemination of aggressive behaviors may help to explain otherwise mysterious fluctuations, and (b) the early prediction of asymmetric quasi-sigmoid trajectories in the occurrence of such phenomena seems defensible.
Obviously, if there exists an asymmetric sigmoidal trend in the occurrence of communal violence of widely disparate types, that pattern of variation-with-time has a cause. For both theoretical reasons and because of our Palestinian data, I propose a hybrid model of the contagion hypothesis.

We've got all the latest development in the wake of the bombing at Boston Marathon as of Tuesday morning.
1 – Latest Numbers
Officials say three people, including an 8-year-old boy named Martin Richard, died as result of the blast, and at least 144 others were injured, with 17 in critical condition. Officials say Martin had just hugged his father at the end of the finish line and then returned to his other family members when the first bomb exploded. Martin's mother Denise is in the hospital after undergoing brain surgery, and his six-year-old sister lost a leg in the blast. Another sibling was not injured.
At least 10 children are currently being treated at local hospitals. Many of the 23,000 runners were still competing at the time of the two explosions, which detonated at the finish line at Boston's Copley Square during a 10-second span at 2:50 p.m. ET Monday, four hours after the race had began, and about two hours after the first runners had crossed the mark.

2 – Search For The Suspects
The FBI is currently investigating the incident, and asking the public for any audio, video or photos racegoers took on Monday. Authorities believe the person(s) responsible used two small explosive devices placed in bags or backpacks and possibly detonated by remote control, possibly by a cellphone.
Officials have not announced any arrests or given any details about possible suspects. FBI officials late Monday served a warrant to a Revere, Mass. home in connection with the incident.
The bureau, along with the U.S. Attorney's office, will speak to the media at 9:30 a.m. ET.

3 – Oval Office Reaction
President Barack Obama issued a stern warning toward the perpetrators Monday, saying they will "feel the full weight of justice," but stopping short of calling the incident a terrorist attack.
Still, an unnamed White House source told the AP the government is investigating the act as the work of terrorists. The president Tuesday is slated to meet with FBI Director Robert Mueller and homeland security assistant Lisa Monaco, among others, as to efforts moving forward.
4 – The World on Alert
Copley Square was shut down Tuesday, as well as highway exits near the area. No low-flying planes were allowed to hover more than 3.5 miles around the site, per the Federal Aviation Administration. The White House and most New York City landmarks had extra safeguards implemented in the wake of the attack.
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said that "some of the security steps we are taking may be noticeable, and others will not be."
Elsewhere, cities such as Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Detroit, San Diego and Las Vegas had additional security and surveillance of any prominent areas, including government buildings, athletic events and busy transit areas. Police in England are ramping up preparations for the London Marathon on Sunday.
5 – Saudi National
A Saudi national noted in news reports Monday remains in custody — though not arrested or charged with any crime — after authorities spotted him acting suspiciously as the bombs went off, according to CBS News reporter John Miller, who described the events that led to the man being taken in based off conversations with law enforcement.
"They see him running away from the device; now, a reasonable person would be running away," Miller said. "A civilian chases him down, tackles him, turns him over to the Boston police. The individual is being looked at, suffering from burn injury. That means this person was pretty close to wherever this blast went off, but not so close as to suffer the serious injuries that other people did."
Officials have not dubbed the Saudi national a suspect in the incident as of Tuesday, ABC News reported, noting that authorities are seeking to speak with the man's friends and associates. Miller said police told him the Saudi national denies anything to do with the attack, and has been cooperative with authorities.
6 – Tragic Links
With the New England area still reeling from the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre less than four months ago, Boston Athletic Association president Joanne Flaminio, prior to Monday's race, noted a "special significance" to the 26.2-mile course, as 26 people died in gunman Adam Lanza's shooting rampage. Boston was also a flashpoint in the Sept. 11, 2011 attacks, as two of the airplanes used in the disaster (American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175) took off from the city's Logan Airport.
7 – Taliban Denial
The Pakistani Taliban, which took credit for the 2010 Times Square Bombing, has denied any link to the bombings.
"Wherever we find Americans we will kill them," spokesman Ihsanullah Ihsan said, "but we don't have any connection with the Boston Explosions."
