Government wants Opry flood lawsuit dismissed
Wednesday - 2/13/2013, 6:50pm EST
Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- An attorney for Gaylord Entertainment Company is arguing in federal court that the Army Corps of Engineers was negligent in its response to massive flooding in 2010 in Tennessee that damaged its property including the Grand Ole Opry.
Gaylord sued the agency over $250 million in damage to the Opry, its hotel and convention center.
Attorney Robert Patterson argued in court Wednesday that corps officials failed to lower the water level of the Cumberland River behind the Old Hickory Dam. And then after more than 13 inches of rain fell over two days, they released water from the dam that caused flooding on their property.
Department of Justice attorneys asked the judge to dismiss the lawsuits filed by Gaylord and other businesses, arguing federal law prevents the government from being held liable for damage caused by flooding.

Why Indonesian education is in crisis
Publication Date : 03-05-2014
I have no doubt that some will read the byline of this editorial and conveniently turn off or tune out without considering an iota of the argument or rhetoric presented. It isn't my country, they certainly are not my children, and whether this country implodes or soars to the heights of success makes little difference to me.
So what is the major malfunction of the Indonesian education system? Does anyone seriously believe "education" in Indonesia is on par with the west, or even Asian countries like Japan, Korea or Singapore? Ask the question another way: If you had to have spinal or brain surgery, would you prefer to have that surgery performed here in Jakarta, in Singapore or Hong Kong?
If you answered "here in Indonesia," I would presume you either have a very decently western-trained physician, or else no resources whatsoever. Or at least, none of my Indonesian friends with any money has ever had major medical procedures performed here. They very readily say they would rather fly to Singapore than trust an Indonesian doctor to open them up. Which is all one needs to know when it comes to "evidence"of the torturous state of Indonesian education.
Certainly we can take a good deal of time arguing about whose fault it is — but the more immediate and pressing question ought to be why Indonesia has not followed in the footsteps of Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore and Japan.
Rather than chasing red herrings that lead to nowhere, let us tackle the real problems plaguing the system. Better to kill the disease than merely react the symptoms, after all.
To all of this I am certain there will come shrill protests that my own country, America, is no shining example to follow. Indeed, my country has created successive generations of people so devoid of morality that it is soon doomed to entropy in the same way that the Roman Empire did.
But one fault is not remedied by pointing out another, and as much as it may please the senses, arguing about my country's shortcomings does nothing to address the issues that plague Indonesia's education system.
So what are the major issues here in Indonesia? Let us look at a few.
First, corruption: the graft and corruption that is Indonesia is almost unparalleled in scope, and its influence on the educational infrastructure of the country can not be overstated. It is no mistake that diplomas being easily purchased and cash-laden envelopes greasing the wheels for degrees that have not been actually earned play a large part of the reasoning behind informed, well-off people in Indonesia traveling overseas to get medical attention.
Second, integrity (a close cousin of the whole "corruption" thing). There is none here. The same person who smiles and assures you all is fine will 10 seconds later stab you in the back with no more than a flinch of a thought, if that.
This general deficiency quite literally bleeds into the educational system in this country. You know, the whole idea of paying for scores related to the national exams (UN) administered, the additional concept (practiced regularly) of envelopes of cash exchanged with administrators or teachers that, magically (or not so magically) seem to correlate to above average marks for students who clearly can barely spell their own names, let alone count and reason higher-level arithmetic.
And thus we come back to the reason well-off Indonesians and expatriates travel overseas for serious medical treatment.
Does anyone see a pattern here? That I managed to suck $40,000 plus out of your economy (in US$, by the way, not Rp) is just further evidence of where I was educated, and conversely where I was not educated. Enough said.

COVINGTON, La. (AP) -- Four men have been sentenced for the 2008 rape of a 19-year-old Kentucky tourist they met on Bourbon Street in New Orleans.
The four were convicted of driving the victim to the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain and gang raping her. The Times-Picayune reports (http://bit.ly/vfzcW5 ) that 21-year-old Elroy Cooper and 19-year-old Jerrell Payton of Pearl River were sentenced in Covington Wednesday to 14 years in prison. A jury had convicted both of simple rape; 20-year-old Ralph Robertson of Pearl River was sentenced to 12 years for simple rape.
Chance Ross, who pleaded guilty to forcible rape and cooperated with investigators, was sentenced to 12 years, but with five years suspended.
A fifth man, 25-year-old Joshua Reed, was convicted of forcible rape and sentenced in June to 30 years in prison.

DALLAS If life is not about the destination but the journey, why not spend it with someone you enjoy?
A nice thought, but for many airline passengers, their travel companion has been largely left to luck.
I've had seatmates who talked non-stop. I've had seatmates where their hygiene is a little different, said frequent flier Aaron Kokoruz of Dallas. If I'm going to be on the plane for nine or 10 hours, of course I'm thinking, 'Oh my gosh, who am I going to sit next to?'
KLM, the Dutch airline, is trying to take some of the fear out of that question.
In February, the carrier began letting its passengers choose not just where they sit, but who they sit next to.
The program, called Meet & Seat, lets customers upload information from their Facebook or LinkedIn pages into the airline's reservation system and share it with fellow passengers.
The customer then scans a map of the plane, clicks on a seat and can see details about that passenger. You can then reserve the space next to someone you find interesting (assuming the seat is available).
I think that would be awesome to control who I sit next to, said Kokoruz, 30, who works in public relations. He said he would gladly share his information if it improves his chances of finding a seatmate with common interests.
I mean, I ve developed friendships in a lot weirder places than airplanes, he said.
Erik Varwijk, KLM s managing director, said in a statement the airline is taking social networking a step forward to give passengers a more inspirational journey.
The carrier thinks the social media link it's a great way to connect travelers who may be heading to the same convention, for instance.
KLM, which carries 23 million passengers a year, even encourages seatmates to meet before the flight for coffee in the terminal or to share a taxi once they land.
Dallas-based travel agent Jim Gray sees problems with Meet & Seat, ranging from privacy concerns to hurt feelings.
It's only going to take one stalker to kill this, he said. Gray has found most of his clients treasure silence on flights and if possible solitude. Consider a passenger, he says, who posts that he's a lawyer.
If you're an attorney, then somebody goes, 'Oh, I need free legal advice!' The next thing they know, they're now giving legal advice for four hours on an airplane, Gray said.
Both American Airlines and Southwest Airlines said this is a program they are not considering at this moment.
Tim Smith, an American spokesman, added in an e-mail to News 8, We can't say we've formed any absolute opinions yet. Our Social Media team is aware of it, and is closely monitoring both the airline marketplace as well as our customers.
KLM, a member of the SkyTeam alliance, is one of the few airlines to let customers merge their social media pages with its reservation system. The program is only available for confirmed passengers on intercontinental flights.
The carrier is currently testing it on flights from Amsterdam, San Francisco, New York and Sao Paulo, but it plans to add other cities soon. KLM offers seasonal flights between Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and Amsterdam.
A traveler doesn't have to share his or her social profiles. While a passenger can't reject who sits next to them, they can change seats or hide their information up to two days before departure.
I think it's an experiment for now, said analyst Rick Seaney, who founded the travel Web site FareCompare.com. I guess what they're trying to do is make flying fun again. If this thing works for KLM, you can rest assured other airlines will follow suit.

Explore Charter School's Fundraising Page
Explore Charter School is a public charter school that is part of a growing network of schools serving families in Central Brooklyn communities and in Flatbush. Our mission, based on the critical need in New York City for more outstanding public schools, is to provide our students with the academic skills and critical-thinking abilities they need to succeed in a college preparatory high school. Presently, 70% of our students live at or below the poverty line. With dedication, persistence, and hard work; our students consistently outperform their peers who attend district public schools on the New York State mathematics and English Language Arts exams. Last year, 98% of Explorers met or exceeded the standard on the math exam and 84% met or exceeded the standard in English Language Arts! Explore is a valuable asset to Brooklyn families, as evidenced by the fact that more than 1,800 families are on our school's waiting list.
Each year Explore Charter School celebrates our academic accomplishments by taking a class trip. This year we will take 36 eighth grade students on a trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina to visit historical sites and experience the outdoors, while participating in a series of team building activities before they enter high school. We will be starting next school year with camping trips to create community amongst our 6th and 7th grade classes. Having grown up in Brooklyn, many of our students have not experienced much of what nature has to offer. One way we give our students these opportunities and experiences is through a class trip. Finally, we will help transition our students to the Upper School by having a "Night at the Museum" trip for our incoming 5th grade class. We hope these start-of-year trips will help build a positive class culture.
Our students are able to participate in experiential global learning because of external community and private fundraising. This year our goal is to raise $20,000 in order to make these trips a reality. We hope that you will be able to help Explore Charter School achieve its mission and touch our students' lives by donating to our page.
Our staff members are running, walking, jogging or biking to help earn money for this goal. PLEASE NOTE THE NAME OF THE STAFF MEMBER YOU ARE SUPPORTING! Thank you!

Football camp a "spirit booster" for injured Rob Gronkowski
Football camp a "spirit booster" for injured Rob Gronkowski
PEABODY — His left forearm in a cast and held by a sling, Rob Gronkowski led a ProCamps football clinic for 450 kids today at Bishop Fenwick High in Peabody. He participated as best he could, occasionally tossing the football a few yards to the campers. But he was extremely limited, thanks to the recent surgery to replace the plate keeping the broken bone in that forearm in place, and also to test and make sure a troublesome infection had finally cleared.

Precious Metals: Scrap Metal Values Helping to Clear County Trash
By Brad Hicks, The Times-Tribune, Corbin, Ky.
Jul. 18–As the money doled out by scrap metal businesses continue to rise, so do the reports of metal thefts.
However, scrap metal businesses paying more than ever for metals such as steel and aluminum has led to one big, positive change — it's helping to clean up area counties.
Laurel County Solid Waste Coordinator Jim Ed McDaniel said his department's dealings with scrap metal have decreased significantly over the past year.
"It's had a very big impact on the county," he said. "It's been a big help to us."
The Laurel County Solid Waste Department offers a free appliance pick up in which residents can contact the department to take away broken down appliances, such as refrigerators, washers and dryers. McDaniel said requests for this service are down three-fold to around two per week.
"We've not been getting hardly any calls on that," he said.
McDaniel also said even when his department gets calls for appliance pick ups, by the time someone from Solid Waste arrives, often the appliance has already been picked up by someone hauling it to the scrap yard.
"You see truckloads of appliances headed over to Jasper's (Iron and Metal Co.) or Beckner's (Metal Recycling in Manchester)," McDaniel said.
The most common dumping areas in Laurel County are also looking a little neater thanks to the increased prices for scrap metal.
"People's even been going out to dump sites and clearing out the metal things they can get out of the dump sites," he said.
Whitley County Solid Waste Coordinator Danny Moses agreed that rising metal prices are clearing up much of the metal trash in the Tri-County.
"It's helping the county, as far as appliances and junk cars go," he said. "It's worth the effort of them taking them off."
However, he said the decrease in the amount of metal in dump sites and yards has led to the creation of another type of trash problem in dump sites and roadsides.
"The only downside to it is we're finding more tires on the side of the road," Moses said, citing that hubcaps are a precious commodity for people looking to gain a few dollars from a scrap yard.
Scrap metal businesses operate by paying people who drop off metal. The company then "bales" the metal together in a cube, which is sent off to the metal recycling plants that pay the scrap metal yards.
Alvin Feltner, scalehouse manager for Jasper Iron and Metal Co. in Laurel County, is obviously pleased by the recent boom in business and said the yard stays busy throughout the day with people dropping off items such as steel, aluminum cans, appliances and even broken down automobiles.
"It's pretty well doubled," Feltner said of his business. "Everybody and their kids are bringing stuff in."
Business isn't the only thing that's doubled. Just a few years ago, a ton of steel would fetch around $100 in area scrap metal yards. Now, a ton of steel is worth around $200, he said. Jasper Iron and Metal paid about $80 a ton for car body metal a couple of years ago, but that amount has doubled to about $160 a ton today.
The increase in both business and metal prices is a considerable turnaround from where scrap metal prices were just a decade ago. According to Jasper's employee Clifford Robinson, scrap metal businesses at that time were just treading water.
"It's just now making up for when it was bad," he said. "We just barely did pull through there."
The employees of Jasper's weren't completely sure what has led to such a marked increase in prices, but believe it may be because of a strong foreign market for metal.
"The story we got is China's buying up as much as they can get," said Jasper employee Stanley Hammons.
Both scrap metal workers and county officials agree, increased metal prices have helped clean up surrounding counties and, if prices remain steady or continue to rise, they foresee no slowdown in the business of metal.
"With scrap metal prices where they are, people are going to take all the metal they can find," Moses said, "and I don't blame them."

This mob mentality on ATS is disturbing. Yeah let's go out with pitch forks and torches and lynch this man because he wants to make sure the homeless receive a meal that contains the necessary nutrients and is not packed full of fat and salt.

lutionary work—work that engenders new paradigms in scientific thinking or fundamentally alters the boundaries between disciplines.
In the experience of the committee members, the current system of funding research proposals tends to favor evolutionary ideas and readily achieved research goals. With a limited pool of research dollars available, proposal review committees favor proposals with the greatest chance of achieving their goals within the funding period of the grant. In fact, early-career researchers often say that they cannot submit proposals for funding until they have already conducted enough experiments to have all but proved the expected result of the proposed investigation—which, of course, they do not have the funding to do.
The NNI has set aside some funds for truly exploratory research—for example, NSF has awarded modest (up to $100,000), 1-year Nanoscale Exploratory Research grants for proof of concept for early-stage ideas. However, the number of these grants is quite limited relative to the potential for fundamental breakthroughs in nanoscale work. The committee recommends that additional high-risk exploratory research should be supported through the NNI.
As discussed throughout this report, realizing the potential of nanoscale science and engineering breakthroughs requires meeting several challenges. Establishing and nurturing a robust interdisciplinary culture in science and engineering is critical. Funding truly revolutionary and high-risk research is also necessary. Neither of these challenges can be met without a long-term commitment.
The interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches that are essential for the success of NNI long-term objectives are already in place in some industrial labs. However, they are relatively new to universities and to many of the key funding agencies that support university work. It will therefore be necessary to encourage universities to nurture groups that combine the knowledge from disciplines such as biology, medicine, chemistry, physics, materials science, computer science, and engineering. It will also be important to develop realistic milestones as desirable goals for proposals. For example, although components (such as a transistor) have been shown to be scalable down to atomic dimensions, the integration of these molecular and nanocomponents into useful higher-order structures and devices is still a considerable technological challenge.
Reforms are required to create a scientific culture that better recognizes and rewards research at the interface of disciplines, particularly in universities. Successful fostering of interdisciplinary research groups is complex and difficult. Universities and their departments will have little incentive to begin this arduous process without the promise of support for their efforts for as long as it takes to achieve success. NSF-funded centers provide this incentive to some extent at the universities that host them, but mechanisms beyond centers are needed. Such a cultural transition is a complex undertaking that will take time, which implies the need for a commitment to sustained funding.
As for the funding agencies, a corresponding interdisciplinary knowledge base needs to be established in the program directorates with a long-term view. Also, there may be a need to change the perception that a long-term goal necessarily involves high risk. This may be particularly true for development of new nanomanufacturing processes, which may be technologically complex and difficult but which rest on a sound scientific base. Program directors will need knowledge and backgrounds that cross disciplines such as biology, materials science, and engineering. Only the most dedicated and visionary directors can tear down the barriers, quash the prejudice that exists, and provide the help and guidance their review panels and proposed referees need to make good choices and decisions.
As discussed above, the NSF Nanoscale Exploratory Research (NER) grant provides short-term funding for proof-of-concept for early-stage ideas. If an idea is truly revolutionary, however, or the technical problem being addressed is truly difficult, one year is often not long enough to produce results. Achieving the high-impact successes promised by nanoscale science and technology will require longer-term funding of extraordinarily challenging or revolutionary proposals, even though some proposals receiving such funding will inevitably fail to bear fruit. However, the breakthroughs achieved by even a few such projects can more than compensate for those projects that did not turn out as hoped.
The committee is not suggesting that successful short-term research efforts be abandoned. Indeed, some short-term successes, particularly developments that lead quickly to applications, can be key to garnering and maintaining public support for the initiative. However, the balance between short-term and long-

NEW YORK, N.Y. - A five-goal performance up front and a 14-save showing by a rookie netminder were recognized by the BIG EAST on Monday with weekly men's lacrosse awards. Marquette redshirt senior Bryan Badolato and St. John's freshman goalkeeper Joe Danaher each picked up their first career weekly honors from the BIG EAST when they were named the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively.
St. John's is back in the polls this week, cracking the USILA rankings at No. 19 and the Warrior Inside Lacrosse media voting at 20th. Villanova received votes in both polls on Monday, while Providence garnered points in the coaches' balloting.
The Red Storm is at No. 17/18 Drexel on Tuesday at 1 p.m., while Providence heads to Fairfield at 4 p.m. and Rutgers visits 20th-ranked Army at 7 p.m. All seven teams are set for action on Saturday.
BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Week BRYAN BADOLATO, MARQUETTE R-Sr., A, West Islip, N.Y. Badolato notched a career-high five goals and accounted for nearly half of his team's offense in Saturday's 16-12 loss at Marist. The redshirt senior scored his first tally in the second quarter to stop a 6-0 run for the Red Foxes, and his last goal came at the 7:28 mark of the fourth to lift the Golden Eagles within 12-10. He's second on the team with 10 points and tied for second with seven goals.
BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week JOE DANAHER, ST. JOHN'S Fr., GK, Massapequa, N.Y. Danaher made a career-best 14 saves in his third career start to backstop the Red Storm to a 14-9 win over Siena on Saturday. He also added a groundball. Danaher faced 53 Siena shots with 23 of them fired on goal. He stands third in the big east averaging 10.33 saves per game.
BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll STEFAN DIACHENKO, ST. JOHN'S Jr., M, Courtice, OntarioSet career highs in goals with three and points with four in the Red Storm's 14-9 victory over Siena on Saturday.
NICK CONTINO, RUTGERS Sr., D, Branchburg, N.J. Marked Stony Brook's Brody Eastwood and held him to just one goal in Saturday's 12-9 loss. Eastwood entered the game second in the country averaging 4.33 goals per game.
RICH RAMBO, RUTGERS Jr., M, Abington, Pa. Logged career bests with three goals, four points and four groundballs in Saturday's 12-9 defeat against Stony Brook. Scored one-third of his team's goals versus the Seawolves.
AUSTIN FREDERICK, VILLANOVA Fr., M, Baltimore, Md. Notched four points on the week. Scored the overtime game-winner in Tuesday's 11-10 comeback win over No. 15 Drexel and added two assists in Saturday's 11-9 loss to Delaware.

A controversial tweet posted by a Kansas University professor last fall in response to the shootings at the Navy Yard in Washington, D.C. resulted in the Kansas Board of Regents' adoption of a revised social media policy. The new policy has caused its own share of controversy. Critics claim the new policy imperils free speech and is too vague under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).
The Board's policy allows public universities to suspend or fire an employee for making improper statements on social media. University officials are charged with balancing the interests of the institution with an employee's right to speak on matters of public concern. Administrators may take action if an employee's social media post could incite violence, disclose confidential information or otherwise damage the university.
Although the Board's social media policy cites the importance of academic freedom, critics are particularly at odds with the provision that allows a faculty member to face discipline for "speech contrary to the interests of the university." While the U.S. Supreme Court has not found that the First Amendment prohibits employers from disciplining employees for such speech, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has invalidated similar social media policies for violating federal labor laws.
The NLRB construes social media policies according to the NLRA, which protects employees who seek to discuss their conditions of employment — wages, benefits, working hours, the physical environment, dress codes, assignments, responsibilities, etc. — whether such comments are made face to face or online. Social media comments that are either an attempt to start, or made in the course of, a conversation between employees concerning issues related to their employment are considered protected "concerted activity."
Given that certain language can attract strict scrutiny from the NLRB, employers should carefully craft workplace social media policies to protect an employer from potential risks without violating various labor laws. Although specific needs vary according to the industry, business and company, the following tips can help devise an effective corporate social media policy —
Clear policies and training are important steps in educating employees on acceptable social media use.

This North African-inspired chicken dish is simmered in an easy sauce, with bay leaves, kumquats, and green olives lending a rich flavor. Try this served over couscous.
This salad is already quite hearty, with dried fruit, toasted nuts, and lots of fragrant fresh mint, but could be made even more substantial with the addition of bulgur or couscous.
Willy Street Co-op's Moroccan lamb sausage is pleasantly spiced with Northern African flavors, and makes this dish a snap to prepare. Serve it with a green salad and you have a delicious meal.

University chief proposes furloughs to cut costs
Yudof unveiled the furlough plan after several weeks of consultations with UC employee groups. He said his office received thousands of letters and e-mails after he released his initial proposals for possible furloughs and salary reductions last month.
Furloughs were preferred over straight salary cuts because they are temporary, preserve pension benefits and give employees extra time off, Yudof said.
Mary Croughan, a UC San Francisco professor who heads the UC Academic Senate, said the furloughs would make it more difficult for the university to retain and recruit faculty.
"We're going to have to really work hard to come up with creative means to retain our exceptional faculty that we have now and to look forward on how to recruit people so we don't fall further behind," Croughan said.
Russell Gould, new chairman of the Board of Regents, said he was launching a new commission to explore new revenue sources and UC's future.
"We can't keep limping along like this from budget cycle to budget cycle," Gould said.

American Capital CleaningRead MoreWhether you're resting in a mountain cabin, traveling through a city, or being vented out an airlock into outer space, dust is all around you. Microscopic particles—usually a combination of soil, pollen, skin cells, and minerals—can pile up quickly indoors. The problem is exacerbated by tiny creatures called dust mites, which gather in groups of 100 to 500 per gram of dust to devour flakes of human skin while multiplying in number, excreting waste, and probably chittering away. No matter where you are on Earth, a mote of dust is presently traveling straight toward your eye, thanks to the persistent creation of dust in almost any climate humans inhabit. Even beyond our planet, dust is ubiquitous: astronomers face the universe's untidiness every time they peer through a telescope and find formations of cosmic dust, which absorb the visible light around them. Although it comes from exploding stars rather than flaky humans, space dust isn't so different from the domestic variety: a 2007 paper published in IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science explored the similarities between the formation of dust bunnies under beds and the coagulation of space dust into planets.1300 Mercantile LnUpper Marlboro, MD US

My period is about 4 days late. I don't think I have anything to worry about but I couldn't find anything about it only. This is only my second period post partum so I am just going on the length of my period from before I was pregnant. I also have a Paragard copper IUD. I don't think it is supposed to mess up your period. I know the chances of getting pregnant with an IUD are not that high but it would be something I would like to know early as it is not exactly straight forward. Anyone have any experience with paragard?

"...If one is looking for a single book that might safely be put into the hands of economics students to inform them about relevant developments in the philosophy of science, about the tradition of self-conscious appraisal in their own discipline, and about the empirical substance of what they will almost everywhere be taught as mainstream economics, then this is it."

It is on its way to Andriod. Just wait a bit longer.
How to restat the game?
I want to start from new game.
Come on! Where's the love for android!?!
iOs exclusive? That's bullshit ubi. I love Pirates. I want Memories for my Nexus too!
Commenting in the hopes that they see we're almost all android users who won't be able to play this.
Once again the android community is pushed to the side, despite being the most popular mobile os on the planet!! Apple must be throwing mega bucks at all these companies for exclusivity, which is a damn shame as I've always been a bug supporter of UbiSoft and love the assassins creed games but disappointed that you seem to be alienating android users.
I would like to see this kind of thing on consoles.. the RPG stuff and all that... although the console version of this shouldnt be the cards.. I never personally liked card games.. and a RPG based AC would be amazing..
Again android users forgotten
This last character is Noah Watts again? He was Connor in AC3, but this looks a lot more with him. Noah is awesome.
Buh, Free to Play! Dislike!
What about us Android users?
So, has there been any news at all about re-introducing Assassin's Creed: Recollection back to the Apple App Store?
I never got the chance to play it, and I'd like to be able to since it was available before I got my iPhone, but now that I got it, it disappeared. :(
Well, we android users are also waiting for the next AC:Pirates update which was released on iOS a few weeks ago. Let's hope they did not completely forgett about the existence of the mobile operating system with the greates marketshare!

Ocean Navigator radar article
The Jan/Feb issue of Ocean Navigator has what I think to be an informative article dealing with the limitations of radar. Even if you have radar on your vessel it's easy to make (false) assumptions about how effective radar on other boats is in "seeing" you. In other words, all radar systems are not created equal and all have various limitations and capabilities. The ON article is worth a read if for no other reason than to stimulate some thought on the subject. It will certainly make me think twice on the water as to if and how my boat may appear on another vessel's radar (especially the big boys) in vaious weather and sea conditions. Best regards for a great New Year everyone.

By MANJIT KAUR firstname.lastname@example.com
IPOH: Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim is unaware of what is happening in the Talam debt recovery exercise, said MCA Young Professionals Bureau chief Datuk Chua Tee Yong.
"Khalid does not even dare to say there is a problem and neither has he denied the fact that Kumpulan Hartanah Selangor Bhd (KHSB) has appointed an auditor to further investigate the matter.
"It is surprising that after two years there is still a need for further investigation, even with the White Paper on Talam and KPMG's audit report where all the answers are clearly stated," Chua said after opening a new Retail Shop Transformation Programme (Tukar) sundry shop here yesterday.
Khalid had reportedly called on Chua to go to the Securities Commission if the latter felt that debts owed by Talam Corp Bhd had been shrunk.
However, in a media report yesterday, Khalid deflected questions by reporters on whether the revelation by Chua was true, saying KHSB would make the necessary announcement on the matter.
Chua had recently cited a report from the Bursa Malaysia, revealing that Talam's debt and penalty interest amounting to RM236mil owed to KHSB had been reduced to RM115mil.
In the Nov 28 announcement, KHSB auditor AKN Arif said further investigations needed to be carried out to find out if proper procedures had been followed, including compliance with the Main Market Listing Requirements.
On July 3, Chua questioned how an exercise to recover RM392mil from Talam ended up in questionable deals worth more than RM1bil.
The deals included Talam assets accepted at RM676mil and a RM392mil grant obtained by the Mentri Besar Incorporated to facilitate the debt recovery exercise.
On the Tukar programme, Chua said 1,020 sundry shops nationwide have undergone transformation under the programme since its inception last year.
From the figure, 72% sundry shops were owned by the Malays, with the rest belonging to other races.
Chua said more non-Malays were encouraged to participate in Tukar with the relaxation on its rules, which included the flexibility on the types of products to be sold (non-halal) and the arrangement requirements.
Under Tukar, traditional sundry shops are offered the option to upgrade and undergo a facelift.
Chua said MCA had been encouraging the Chinese to take part in the programme through Koperasi Jayadiri Malaysia (Kojadi) with the cooperation from the Federation of Sundry Goods Merchants.

Re: 6 Americans, 1 Brit vanish at sea
Okay at regular computer now. What I was trying to say is that yes you are correct with wood being very malleable however a tree and a wooden boat are much different. A tree is all the same piece of wood- a boat made of wood is hundreds or thousands of pieces of wood from different trees. Add the fact it was above 50 feet AND 80+ years old and you have a recipe for disaster. The long boat is the worst feature because after a certain age the structural integrity will weaken. It only needs to start with one board. Then you have the constant bending and turning of the wood in those big seas for days on end AND wood and fastenings over 80 years old and it all really seems to be the most likely scenario. This also explains why no emergency beacons have been activated.
It most likely would have broken around the middle where the most strain was meaning thousands of gallons would have entered every few seconds leaving only perhaps 2 minutes or even less to activate EPRIB and take to life rafts. Add the hurricane winds and 26' seas and this becomes impossible. It would take you at least 20 seconds to realize what the hell just happened and by that time your probably already going down since the waves and wind do not just stop. Once one board splinters the rest fail in rapid succession from the strain and pulling. This means that the boats crew would be swarmed with water while being thrown around by wave action trying to figure what the hell was going on- I think they sank before anything could be done to activate or take to life rafts. Its a terrible situation but the age of the boat, material of construction, and weather at sea ALL point to this event being the culprit.
If the mast had come down or rigging failed the hull would still be intact at least a minute or two before a spar or something would hole the boat- this would only create a smaller hole and give them minutes not seconds to react and activate beacons. With so many people on board I do not see how someone would not have activated or made a may day call.
I think the boat broke apart and was flooded in seconds and went down in hardly any time at all leaving no one able to do anything except thank God for a life lived and pray for a quick death. Its incredibly sad but I do not see any other really plausible scenario that would not have left a 7 man crew able to hit an emergency activator button or make a mayday.
I still hope I am wrong- but science leads me to conclude I am not as well as going on four weeks with no word.

La Jolla Institute targets the mystery of genes
"We're not looking at this as a fortress," Kronenberg said.
Money for the facility came from a final batch of federal economic stimulus funding that was earmarked for boosting the application of genomics in medicine and invigorating scientific communities.
Competition was fierce among the research institutions that submitted applications for the $80 million in grants, Wilson said.
Part of the appeal of La Jolla Institute's proposal was that it laid out a plan for operating the facility beyond the grant's three-year life span, said Sonia Sharma, scientific director of the local center.
"Basically, it's the gift that keeps on giving," she said.
Already, the center has won praise from outside colleagues.
"This screening facility is a tremendous resource for scientists throughout the mesa in terms of raw discovery of new scientific principles, generating drug leads and validating therapeutic strategies," said Victor Nizet, a University of California San Diego professor whose research lab studies bacterial infections and the immune system.
He imagines using the RNAi test to identify the genes that play a role in the growth of a disease-causing bacterium.
"Right now, a lot of (drug) discovery is based on chemistry," Nizet said. "You get a lot of novel chemicals from the rain forest or the bottom of the sea.
"This goes the entire opposite way," he said. "RNAi looks for functions of a cell that are good drug targets."
The effect of RNAi was first noticed in the early 1990s by a pair of Oakland scientists who found that purple petunias lost their pigment and turned white when a certain gene in the flower was purposefully overexpressed. However, they didn't know what caused the change.
In 1998, researchers at Stanford University and the University of Massachusetts finally identified the RNAi mechanism after inserting some of the special genetic strands into tiny worms. They received the 2006 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for the work.
RNAi works by shutting down, or interrupting, the proteins that serve as molecular workhorses, driving every aspect of a cell's function and purpose.
Scientists can determine what genes are responsible for a particular trait by inserting thousands of different RNAi molecules into specially engineered cells and watching to see which ones turn off the targeted behavior.
It's like figuring out what makes a car's headlights work only with a list of all of the pieces in the vehicle, Kronenberg said.
"You start removing parts to see what makes the lights go off," he said.
As new as RNAi technology seems, scientists believe the powerful biological tool is an ancient one that developed millions of years ago among microbes as a defense mechanism against viruses before being passed though the evolutionary chain to humans.
To keep the La Jolla Institute center open beyond the initial three years covered by the NIH grant, operators will have to attract additional work and funding from scientists throughout the area.
Some researchers already are imagining how RNAi experiments might enhance their work.
Chris Benedict, a virologist at La Jolla Institute, hopes to use the center to learn more about the cytomegalovirus he studies.

Regarding whether glutamate is possibly toxic, the researcher is categorical. "If food safety is evaluated with scientific rigor, MSG is entirely safe for human consumption. If people talk about it being toxic and MSG continues to receive negative publicity, it is because results are extrapolated from administration routes and doses that do not correspond to reality. In fact, it is less toxic than salt".
Even in breast milk
We are exposed to free glutamate from childhood. The most abundant amino acid in breast milk has 0.02% of glutamate, so a 5kg baby who takes 800 ml of breast milk a day, consumes 0.16g of glutamate. "The amount of glutamate consumed by babies that only breastfeed is equivalent to the MSG of Korea or Taiwan," the researcher concludes.
Total consumption of glutamate (both free and joined to proteins) in an adult diet amounts to around 10 grams a day (100-150mg/kg/day assuming a weight of 70kg), whereas the consumption of glutamate as a condiment in the form of MSG varies from 0.4g in the US, 1.5g in Japan and Korea and 3g in Taiwan (from 6 to 43mg/kg/day). MSG consumption in Spain has not been estimated, but the United Kingdom is calculated to consume 0.6 g on average and 2g in a minority segment of the population (three times more than average).

Dust Storm over Pakistan
November 26, 2007
Another dust plume swept through Pakistan on May 25, 2006. The MODIS on NASA's Terra satellite took this picture the same day. In this image, the dust plume appears as a pale beige cloud. Under the dust cloud, the Indus River Valley appears in darker shades of brown. The region is home to sand deserts and high springtime temperatures, both of which contribute to dust storms. According to news reports, Pakistan suffered a severe heat wave in May 2006.
