Nastase - I'm a fan
Each era has one or two players that are somehow a cut about the rest of the tour, that premiere talent that everyone feared. In the 90s that guy was named Michael Stich ( and to a lesser extent Marcelo Rios ). In the millennium, it was Marat Safin. Someone told me back in the 50s, it was Lew Hoad.
This guy is a complete talent, gifted with many ways to finish a point and able to beat anyone player at any given moment. They also probably didnt win as much as they should have; theres a certain amount of tragedy with their career. But hes also a players player, a guy that other people who really play the game want to watch. Theres beauty in their strokes and a fierceness with their play. And the granddaddy of them all was this nutty guy from Romania named Ilie Nastase.
Although he only won a handful of slam titles, Nastase did win nearly 60 official tour titles and according wikipedia another 30-ish along the way. So he did win his fair share especially from the early 70s when some slams meant less than some other titles on tour. He also sat number one in the ranking for a protracted amount of time and he was prolific in doubles. So cant really cry for Ilie, his trophy case is sagging like the best of em. And yet he still probably shouldve won more.
But heres a fun thing: I got my hands on McEnroes first professional tournament, the 1978 Forest Hills clay court event. He made it to the semifinals and lost to you know who. It was a bizarre experience seeing the two of them: Ilie in his veteran 30s and Mac in his youthful teens. Both were not in their prime and yet you could see glimpses of greatness that once was or about to be.
McEnroe had yet to develop his game. His strokes were about half of what they would be, he volley was not yet refined and his serve - that which would soon become the biggest weapon in tennis - had yet to invented. In many ways he was weapon-less and yet he was still McEnroe. He was smart. He was clever. And he had a burning need to win, you can see it early on.
On the other side of the net was Nastase; speedy, with a Jedi-sense around the court and an ability to make any shot look easy. I cant comment on who he was at his best, but you have to think if this is what they guy was like in end of his career, you have to think he was gangbusters in the middle. And you had to concede this was clearly the second half of Nastases career - Mac played him pretty tightly the first few times they had played previously and the fiery left-hander would not concede a match to the Romanian after that day. But Ilie beginning his twilight was still a sight to see.
Firstly, Nastase was fast. Insanely fast. It wasnt just that he could move to a spot quickly, he seemed to recognize where he needed to be instantly and then move to where he was needed in a flash. Its a combination of footspeed and anticipation that belongs to people named Mecir, McEnroe and Federer. Its mercurial. Its without effort. And its a pleasure to see.
His entire game is built on his movement around the court. It allows him to take make the shots that he can make. It allows him to hit hard or soft or with backwards spins because his legs allow him to cover spots his antics left open. Essentially, his speed allows him to be Nastase. After that, he hit the serve, the volley, the backhand, the forehand and the overhead about as well as anyone else. And he did it from all parts of the court in a complete game. Name a corner and I can tell you, Ilie was comfortable in it.
But what of that x-factor? What of that unknown attunement with the tennis gods that allowed Nastase to see what he could see? Whatever it was, Ilie had it in spades. He possessed that sense that I have only seen in four other players - Rios when he paid attention, McEnroe particularly in 1984, Federer and Hingis when she was interested. Somehow they seemed to know where the ball was going seemingly before you even hit it off your racket. Its beguiling.
To see Nastase do it to McEnroe doing that Forest Hills match was downright backwards. Theres plenty of Youtube showing Mac in 84 carving up people before they even know theyre being carved, and heres this cartoonish Iron-curtain relic picking the most deceptive players shots before they leave his strings. People can through Mac. Or they run him down. But what they dont do it out-Mac him.
So this Nastase guy, he was really something.
He would finish that year #4. His first pro event was in '76.
He seems to have made a big change in his service motion sometime from July '78 & Jan '79(when he won the Masters)
I hear ya, Malloy. That's what I thought too. But as I watched the match, Howard Cosell ( yes, he was commentating and he was orgasming over Nastase ) and John Newcombe mentioned this was his first match as a professional. It even said it on screen.
I think McEnroe had been in other tournaments before, most likely as an amateur. They mentioned his year at Stanford and that he was only 18. I'm just quoting what they said.
You are right......I was a ballboy at that event and it was the WCT at Westside (we lived about 5 blocks away). JMac had just finished his year at Stanford and had not officially turned pro until that event - there was some talk he was going to return to Stanford (his mom was adamant he finish all 4 yrs) in the fall but after Wimby and the RG he decided to go pro. It was a huge deal as his mom was pretty ****ed and made no secret in the press and to anyone around that she wanted him to stay amateur.
And yes, Nastase was a nut.
McEnroe had played many pro events in the past year(reached the semis at '77 Wimbledon) Enough events to already be ranked in the top 20 at the time of this match. He was seeded 15 at the USO less than 2 months after this match.
This was still early in the open era, amateurs doing well on tour was not that unusual(Pam Shriver would make the final of the USO that year as an amateur)
Also being a great player at 18/19 wasn't that unusual either circa 1978.
Thanks for that insight and analysis, Malloy.
Such a minute and semantic-challenged detail really helped to add to the tenure and thoughts of what I wrote earlier.
On a track, Nastase would probably come in third. But on a court, he'd cover the corners about as well as anyone.
Also a Nastase fan
Oh so likewise here... once we got through the "battle of detail," we almost forgot the beauty of the object of the post.
On the one hand, his antics and his darkest side were entertaining sometimes and most often ruinous for the game. Now, on the other, he was a gift from the tennis gods. Bodo's Inside Tennis , one glorious book about a glorious age in tennis, refers to Mr. Nastase as "the most graceful player in the men's game." Yep...
Yes, I know the WTC Match with Mac - I marveled at the dynamics, likewise... beautiful to understand and wonder at...
If you can , grab the '72 Masters match with Connors/Mr. Nastase. Nastase is on display in that match. He dinks/jerks Connors around - one wrong foot after another...
When he is on, and is comfy enough to stay on, he reminds me of exactly what tennis is missing today...
He was tall and strong with massive hands, used almost one grip at all times..muscled his backhand passing shot but got it over into a difficult spot for a secondary pass..he had a great serve that set up the rest of his shots..he made drop shots, drop vollleys and overheads look easy.one of the few players who could make Laver look off balance ...just a pure talent for his time
I will name a couple of others for anticipation and speed along with the ones you mentioned--Borg and Rosewall.
Nice OP carpedm. I'm a long time Nastase fan. Yeah, beguiling.
Watch his court coverage at 0:50. Great get. And again 2:18-2:25.
Take a look at his wristy forehand at 1:23. Good call.
There are some player who were great and there are some who were great and are geniuses. Nastase was the latter. He could pull off the most imaginative shots that you wouldn't even think of.
I loved John Newcombe and he was a great player but he wasn't a genius of the court like Nastase.
As for quickness, Laver,Borg,Kriek,Gerulaitis,Mandlikova,Graf and Federer come to my mind.and for a while, Navratilova and Goolagong, too.In any case,any all time great had above par footwork, though.
good points, kiki. to quote mary carillo, " with the exception of maybe becker, there's never been a slow number one."

General Discussion
TOPIC: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherhood
Predictors for balancing medicine and motherhood 5 years 5 months ago #72256
This is a (really long) spinoff from another post (about whether waterbaby27 should have a baby in med school). People are always trying to figure out if they should have a baby at X point in their medical career, and people always respond with their stories, pro and con (including residentmom, who has had a baby in every point in her medical career!). That is great, since people need to know what kinds of situations can come up. But I was thinking about something more objective, like some kind of scored quiz where people could answer questions about their own situation and get an answer, like "this will probably work out well," or "this will be a total disaster," or "this has a 50% chance of working out." People who have already taken the plunge and had a child could see if the results reflect the reality of how difficult or easy it is.
So I have been thinking about making such a quiz, but I have no time, so I can't do it. :crazy: But what I have done is to list some things that seem like good predictors of how things will work out. By "work out" I mean that you will be able to continue your medical career and feel okay about the balance of family and work. Maybe this will be helpful. Maybe other people will add to the list, too.
It seems like the people with stay-at-home-dad husbands are usually very happy with that arrangement. Other good factors would be a husband who is willing to share child rearing and housework, a husband with a very flexible job, a husband who will not require you to move for him, a husband who would be willing to move for you, and a husband who values your medical career. Negative factors would be a husband in the military, a husband who is a surgeon, a husband who expects you to support his high-powered career, a husband who is not a good father or husband, and an absent husband (or no husband at all).
Family caregivers
It seems like the people whose parents or in-laws can provide a lot of free childcare are extremely grateful for that support. The number of family caregivers, their proximity, and their availability seem to be positive factors. Negative factors are family members who require your care, such as sick or elderly parents, or family members who would not do a good job for whatever reason.
Paid childcare
It is a big challenge to find childcare that is excellent, affordable, available at odd hours, and available for sick children. I don't know much about this part, but people have reported all kinds of good combinations of daycare, in-home caregivers, and caregivers on call. It seems like the wider your net of potential caregivers, the better.
The more money you have, the more options you will have. It is expensive to raise a child, and it is also expensive to become a doctor. Husbands with money are also good, unless they are completely unavailable because of their high-powered work. Being willing to live frugally is a big plus.
Your attitude toward parenting and homemaking
A positive factor seems to be a willingness to delegate a lot of the parenting and homemaking. Negative factors seem to be the belief that mothers should stay home with young children or a lot of family pressure to do so (not that this is a negative or incorrect attitude, just that it makes it harder to balance motherhood and work because of the guilt).
Your attitude toward your medical career
Positive factors are a love for medicine, and a belief that you are/will be a good doctor despite not spending 100% of your time on medicine. A negative factor would be that your medical career is so important to you that you do not want anything to interfere with it (because having a child will definitely interfere), or conversely that your career is not as important as your husband's career (because then you are more likely to sacrifice your career). Feeling beaten down and disillusioned by the reality of medicine is another negative factor.
Your stage in education/training/practice
There are endless permutations on this one. So much depends on your local situation, such as a medical school with course material available in a variety of formats, or a culture of family-friendliness in your particular hospital. Then you have to think ahead to how old your child will be when you are an intern, etc. The only thing that seems clear to me is that internship is the worst time to have a baby.
Family-friendly field
To me, this means 2 things. First, how competitive is the field you want to enter? If you want to go into something super competitive, you will need to work very hard and do very well in medical school, and having a baby then could definitely hurt your chances. Second, once you get in, how flexible and supportive will your bosses and colleagues be? The availability of true part-time work, hours that correspond with daycare/school hours, and the ability to take time off (short- or long-term) are also positive factors. And just in case anybody did not know, surgery is not a family-friendly field.
Other commitments
Anything else that takes up your time will make it difficult to balance medicine and motherhood. Caring for an elderly or sick parent, other children to take care of, a long commute, a time-consuming hobby, or even a well-rounded life could be seen as negative factors if you are really pressed for time. On the other hand, already having other children can be a good thing if you already have a system of support that works well.
Unknown factors
You can't predict some things, such as infertility (although your age is an important predictor), complications of pregnancy and childbirth, a sick or special-needs child, an illness in you or your caregivers, or the collapse of medicine as we know it, but these things can definitely upset the balance of your life. And as they say, you can never really know what it is like to be a parent until you are one.
Your own influence on the above factors
You can influence a lot of these factors yourself, such as convincing your husband not to be a surgeon. You can plan ahead so that things are more likely to work out, such as picking a city for residency that is close to family members who can provide childcare.
So do these factors make sense to those who are parents? Did I leave out any major categories? Does anyone have anything to add? Does anyone want to create a scoring system for fun (SAHD husband = 10 points, surgeon husband = -10 points, etc.)? Sorry for the long post, but I just felt like putting it all out there in one place.

Re: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherhood 5 years 5 months ago #72257
Very, very well put. I'd give the highest point value to husband, childcare, and family-friendly field. Good point about one's attitude towards medicine; that probably has so much more to do with it than we think.

Re: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherho 5 years 5 months ago #72258
Wow- this is really good! Kind of helps me organize my own self too.
I think we mommders would eat up a quiz like this.
Good point on the impact that your own attitude on career/parenting has on the level of difficulty you experience.

Re: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherho 5 years 5 months ago #72260
sahmd, I think this is right on. Husband-factors are far and away the most important in my opinion, and #2 is the "attitude toward parenting" one. Or maybe that's just the one I'm struggling with presently. I love my son's daycare center, but when he spends more than 30ish hours there in a single week, I start to twitch. Needless to say, my twitchy weeks are pretty frequent. I can certainly see that the strain I'm feeling right now would be diminished if my attitude about how much daycare/week is acceptable was relaxed somewhat.
The only other category I can think of is something like "personal vigor" ... someone who really needs eight or nine hours of sleep/night to function will struggle more than someone who needs six. In a somewhat similar vein, if you read/learn/memorize very quickly, that's also a big plus. I suspect that the women who manage both medical training and motherhood and come up smiling have deep reserves both of energy and intellect.

Re: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherho 5 years 5 months ago #72265
Yes! I can certainly see exactly where I am on all of the topics you mentioned!
"Your attitude toward your medical career" is particularly interesting to me because this is something we have not discussed much yet in these threads. Yet it is key. This factor is influenced so much by all of the others. For example, women physicians who bear most of the "bread winning" responsibility in their families seem to give their careers more importance. In my case, my husband makes more than I do so I tend to defer to his career. For example, I am the one to cancel my patients when an emergency such as a sick child or snow day comes up. This is ok with me because we take a bigger hit financially if he stays home instead. The other thing is, I have to absorb some stress from him and support him emotionally - he is basically the managing partner in his practice and needs me to support him in this role. However, "supporting his career" both in terms of scheduling issues and emotional availability to him does definitely affect my commitment to my own career. It takes a "back seat" to his. I do not resent this really because his income allows for a good lifestyle for our family. Just the way it is. But we are not truly equals. I suspect this is the way it generally is for most dual career families.

Re: Predictors for balancing medicine and motherho 5 years 5 months ago #72266
Those are good additional categories, Emily2651. The time you need for sleep (or other self-care) and the time you need to spend studying would definitely affect the time available for anything else. And you definitely need energy to keep up with kids and to be productive as a doctor or doctor-in-training. Being younger would probably be a plus there.
And kpzr/9145, there are social expectations as well about the man's career being more important. I made more money than my husband when we were both working full time, so financially it would have made more sense to sacrifice his career. But, being male and being older than me, he had such an entrenched image of himself as "breadwinner" and "hard worker" that it was really impossible to get him to change that.
I also should point out that a lot of the issues I listed came from the book, "Opting Out." For those who haven't read it, it is an analysis of interviews with professional women who ended up staying home with their kids.

My boyfriend gets mad easily?
My boyfriend and I have been together over 3 years and living together for 2. We love each other very much, but he gets so mad over stupid things. If... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
well honey.. he is a good man but is he a good enough man? For how long do you want to take care of a grown man AND hear him nag about things you do? Please, you live in a very unfair situation. No balance there. Ask him to balance it out. If he is going to be home all day and if he doesn't like the way you make the bed, LET HIM DO IT HIMSELF shiiit. YOU don't want to leave him because your child is probably attached to him as much as you are too but this is not a fling thing, this is your man that you live with as a family, he has to get up and get something and if he doesn't like something he should do it himself. He has too much time in his hands not to correct stuff but talk shxt.

What Girls Said 3
You are a wonderful woman who is supporting a man who does not appreciate you. He is emasculated and impotent in this relationship and he is on a very abusive trend. There will be a time he starts to hit you, currently he's doing serious damage to your psyche to where you think you love him and you think he's wonderful. He's not. Wonderful men contribute, they share the burden, they work, they pay the bills, they want to be the man of the house. They want to make sure you are taken care of. This person you are with wants a mommy.
You need a man, not another little boy.
Be strong and walk away from this guy before it gets worse. It will be so difficult and you will need a strong support system, but you can do it.
leave him it will only get worse. he will start abusing you one day if you stay. if a guy will abuse a woman he claims to love how long before he starts focusing that on your son? he's a loser and abusive, there's not enough great reasons to justify that sorry. you have all the power and don't even seem to realize it. he lives off you. if you cut him off he has nothing. he is not even a real man doing real manly things so where does he get off putting you down except to make his pathetic self feel better? you can do better! do you want your son seeing that as an example?
Have an opinion?

Get ready for the return of college basketball and an inter-conference clash of NFL powers. Here's what to watch this weekend:
Rookie quarterback Andrew Luck ran for two touchdowns, and the Indianapolis Colts dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars, 27-10, in Jacksonville on Thursday night.
It's been quite a season for the Indianapolis Colts. Led by rookie quarterback Andrew Luck, they find themselves 5 and 3, a surprising improvement from last year when they were among the league's worst teams.
The Colts have been quick to credit their first year head coach Chuck Pagano for setting the tone for their turnaround. But Pagano has actually been absent from the team since September, when he was diagnosed with leukemia.

HOUSTON While investigators in Connecticut continue to search for the motivation and mental state of the gunman who killed 20 children and six adults last week, a single mother in Humble says the tragedy raised new fears for her and her mentally ill son.
When I saw what happened in Connecticut my phone just started ringing and it s actually been ringing ever since, said a 28-year-old woman who we agreed to only refer to by her first name Alondria. Her phone started ringing because of her son we will call Charles, the second of her four children.
He was normal. He was a healthy child, she said.
But by the time he was six years old something was wrong.
He would pretty much just tend to go off. If it was anything that was sharp that he could stab you with or anything he would.
He did stab his mom, twice, when he was just 8 years old. Police have been called to their Humble home numerous times.
I know he was saying he was going to kill me and he wanted to kill my other children in the home as well.
He was diagnosed ADHD and bipolar disorder and the single mom has been fighting to get him help ever since.
When you re dealing with a child with mental issues you never know when they re going to flip, she said.
Alondria s struggle is happening all over the country: parents with mentally ill children but unable to afford help. She says she was counseled by some mental health experts to put her son in a long term treatment program at a cost of $6,000 a month or turn over custody of the boy to Child Protective Services and make him a ward of the state.
When you have children that are sick why is it so hard to get them the help that they need, she said.
A few months ago Alondria did find a doctor and therapist willing to take Medicaid.Her son, a third grader now in a special education class in a public elementary school, is stable for the moment on three medications.
But this mom worries. Without more help what will he become when he s 18 or 20?
I feel that if he does not get the proper help he needs, either he s going to hurt somebody or somebody s going to hurt him. There s somebody out there that can help me.I know that if I need the help. I just have not found that person yet, she said.

Newly Released: Feminism and the Mastery of Women and Childbirth (2014) In Feminism and the Mastery of Women and Childbirth Dr. Nall shows that social conceptualizations of childbirth, as indicated in popular culture, medical practice and research, promote dehumanizing, dishonoring patriarchal definitions of femininity. The dominant vision of childbirth serves, he contends, to perpetuate the distrust of both the female body and the sphere of "nature." Nall also argues that the homebirth movement provides an alternative understanding and practice that is often, but not always, more consonant with feminist and ecofeminist philosophy's values, including support for gender equality, and the disavowal of dominator relations between culture and nature in favor of a partnership model.

Gem Proof 1885 Snowden Lettered Edge Dollar1885 $1 Snowden Dollar, Judd-1747, Pollock-1959, R.6, PR66 PCGS. The obverse and reverse are identical to that of the regular issue 1885 Morgan Dollar. The edge is, however, lettered ***** E * / PLURIBUS * / UNUM *****. Struck in silver. Unlike other certification service holders, the PCGS holder actually permits the viewer to see that the edge is lettered, even though obscured. While not a major rarity, this is an extremely popular and important silver dollar pattern, often collected by Morgan dollar specialists as part of a comprehensive collection. This amazing Gem has exceptional color with light gold at the centers, surrounded by vivid lilac and bright blue. The surfaces are amazing in quality and the overall aesthetic appeal is splendid. This may be one of the very finest Snowden dollars in existence.(#62189) (PCGS# 62189)

Closer look: Sivarraajh inspecting the wound on Sharmini's head. Looking on are (from right) her parents Siyamala and Muthtu, MIC Youth deputy chief R. Thinalan, and her grandfather Rajendran P. Raju.
KUALA LUMPUR: The parents of an eight-year-old girl are taking legal action against the teacher who threw his shoe at her for playing in the classroom.
Port Dickson Municipal Council worker K. Muthtu, 35, and his wife R. Siyamala, 32, are being assisted by MIC Youth in taking up the civil suit against the teacher, the school and the Education Ministry.
"My daughter M. Sharmini is still complaining of pain and is afraid to go back to school," said an emotional Muthtu during a press conference yesterday.
Muthtu was at work when the school principal called last Thursday and said his daughter was in trouble.
"I was on the way to the school when I received a call from another teacher who asked me to go to the clinic. I went there to see my daughter lying down with her head bandaged.
"I was then told by the headmaster that the teacher had thrown his shoe at her," he said.
They lodged a report at the Port Dickson police headquarters on the same day.
While the school principal and several teachers had come to their house and apologised, the shoe-thrower never made any attempt to apologise, Siyamala claimed.
The Moral Studies teacher is said to have lost his temper when Sharmini and another two pupils played in the classroom.
He had allegedly shouted, taken off his shoe and thrown it at the pupil, injuring her on the head, after which he continued with his lesson even though the girl was bleeding.
The teacher has since been transferred to another school pending investigations.
MIC Youth chief C. Sivaraajh said they were taking the case to court as a lesson to others.
"We want to make sure the teacher won't do this to other students.
"Many who are involved in such cases are merely transferred to other schools, then later merely asked to apologise with no further action," he said.

On the Senate floor a few minutes ago Mitch McConnell made Democrats an offer. Now that he and the White House basically agree on the tax piece of the so-called fiscal cliff, Congress should pass legislation to prevent the Bush tax cuts from expiring at midnight, and grapple with the "sequester" in the coming days.True, but there's an important caveat. Given that the tax cut threshold of $450,000 that Democrats negotiated with Mitch McConnell was predicated on delaying the sequester's spending cuts, there's no reason that they should feel compelled to stick by that number now that McConnell is taking the sequester off the table. Instead, Democrats should go back to their original alternative plan: putting forward legislation that would extend tax cuts on all income below $250,000 along with unemployment benefits.
This is an offer Democrats will have a hard time turning down.
Given the logic of McConnell's statement, he should be willing to support that plan. And if he can't bring himself to support it, he needs to either pay the political price for opposing it or put something else on the table as a concession. And that means delaying the sequester.
Basically, McConnell is saying that he only wants to enact the parts of the deal that he likes—the parts where Democrats compromised. But he doesn't want to enact the parts where Republicans would have had to compromise. And while I wouldn't bet against Democrats accepting that "offer," they really should reject it—especially now that House Republicans have announced they plan to take us over the "cliff."

That's 92 news segments versus 12. ABC World News was the worst. It devoted 43 segments to the royals and one to climate change. But neither NBC Nightly News nor CBS Nightly News were much better. The count did not include cable channels like MSNBC or Foxaganda.
This ongoing imbalance was illustrated just last week when scientists announced that the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is set to surpass 400 parts per million, likely for the first time in human history. ABC World News and NBC Nightly News ignored the story, even as NBC found time to cover Prince Harry's visit to the United States.Also previously, Media Matters has found a profound unwillingness on the broadcast news programs to tie the pieces together regarding extreme weather patterns and climate change.
A previous Media Matters report found that the broadcast networks covered Donald Trump more than climate change in 2011.
Media Matters has joined with Sierra Club and the League of Conservation Voters in presenting 72,000 petition signatures to the three networks demanding they give more coverage to climate change.
"What we're seeing outside our window should be reflected on our television screens. We saw historic climate-fueled extreme weather last year, but the major network newscasts barely mentioned climate change at all. It's clear from the response to this petition that the American people don't want to see the same old coverage this year," said Vanessa Kritzer, LCV Online Campaigns Manger.Different sources using different data bases disagree about whether worldwide coverage of climate change went up or down in 2012. But coverage in the major U.S. print media definitely rose. Please read below the fold for more on media coverage of climate change.
"After a year of record floods, record storms, and record temperatures that affected the lives of millions nationwide, the American people deserve record coverage of the climate disruption fueling this extreme weather—but we're not getting it. Now, tens of thousands have stood up to demand more accurate, thorough, and frequent coverage of the climate crisis and the solutions it so immediately demands," said Maggie Kao, Sierra Club National Press Secretary.
Bill Kovarik, professor of communications at Radford University in Virginia, found that the four U.S. newspapers with the largest circulation—The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The New York Times and the Washington Post—published 1,770 stories on climate change last year. That was about 10 percent higher than in 2011. But it was 11 percent below what the four papers published on the topic in 2010. And it was still far from what could be considered adequate.
The best of the lot was The New York Times:
Glenn Kramon, assistant managing editor of the Times attributed last year's uptick in the paper's coverage to the fruition of a 4-year-old effort to group top reporters on a separate environment desk.Ironically, just a few days after Kramon was quoted in the matter in January, the Times dumped its environment desk and eliminated the position of environment editor and deputy environment editor, and reassigned all the staffers on the environment team to other desks. The paper's assistant managing editor said the move would not reduce coverage of climate change.
The paper has six reporters in the cluster, plus others covering the subject from other desks, as well as several editors—in particular the environment editor, Sandy Keenan – who all are "very comfortable" with the topic, he said.
Perhaps. But that has certainly not been the experience in the past.
In 1990, when the 20th anniversary of Earth Day revived that project in the wake of the publication of Bill McKibben's The End of Nature, scores of newspapers across the United States and in some foreign nations added reporters, editors, pages and sometimes entire weekly sections dedicated to environmental coverage. But over the next decade, nearly all of them retreated. Eco-coverage fell off sharply.
If you look for it, you can find plenty of climate-change coverage for the layman on the internet. Good, original reporting like that of Pulitzer prize-winning InsideClimateChange, ClimateProgress is plentiful. There are aggregators like The Daily Climate and Climate Debate Daily. Blogs like DeSmogBlog and more technically oriented sites like RealClimate also cover the field.
But most people don't get their news from those sites, even the ones with relatively high traffic. They get it from television or, in ever smaller numbers, from newspapers. Increasing coverage in those venues, by petitioning or other pressure, is a worthy project.
Two problems, however.
First, much of that coverage is tainted by 20 years of fossil-fueled lies and smears promoted by deniers and "skeptics." So it's not just a matter of increasing the coverage, but vastly improving it.
Second, given its penchant for disaster coverage of any kind, much of any increased climate change coverage can be expected to focus on news that generate despair because the impacts are so great and accelerating. As we know too well, despair creates apathy, and apathy kills activism.
Thus, pressure for increased coverage needs to be combined with pressure for solutions-based coverage. There's plenty of news to fulfill that need, but media ownership blocks much of it from getting regular attention. Making inroads against that requires ramping up action well beyond petition drives.

China's biggest mobile firm starts Apple iPhone sales
Published on Jan 17, 2014 11:41 AM
SHANGHAI (AFP) - China Mobile, the country's biggest services provider, on Friday started selling Apple's iPhone to its millions of customers nationwide, ending a six-year wait in a key market for the US technology giant.
The combination of China Mobile's existing base of 760 million customers and its plans to roll out the world's largest 4G (fourth generation) network have the firm and Apple forecasting a fruitful union - after a long engagement.
China Mobile has priced the iPhone 5s roughly the same as competitor China Unicom, while at official Apple stores prices for iPhones compatible with each of the country's networks are identical.
At a China Mobile branch in downtown Shanghai, university student Jiang Yong picked up a silver iPhone 5s he had pre-ordered.

Much of the rancor in the Washington legislature s extended session this year was about how to find more money to fund public education.
However, lawmakers also want to know if Washington tax dollars are funding the best possible education for kids.
In the final budget they inserted a proviso that orders an analysis of how school districts use school days.
We re interested in setting some standards for school.How many hours do you actually go? asked Senator Tim Sheldon (D-Potlatch), who is one of the lawmakers behind the proviso. I get a lot of complaints from constituents about early release days.Why do they occur?Is there any predictability? Are there any standards?
Lawmakers have given the task of finding answers to those questions to the non-partisan Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee (JLARC).
JLARC provides audits to provide lawmakers with factual, objective information that they can use in crafting legislation.
Often we get a question posed to us because it s hard to find the answer, said Keenan Konopaski, who is in charge of JLARC. The purpose of the office is to answer legislative questions about how government programs are performing.
Lawmakers have asked JLARC to find out:
- How school district s define classroom time
- How instructional and non-instructional time is used
- How many hours are spent on instructional and non-instruction time
- How much non-instructional time is distributed annually
- How collective bargaining agreements impact these issues
Even though we re getting questioned, our first step is to go out and ask a lot of other people about how their program operates, what kinds of things were they doing, when they entertained different times of the day for student instruction, said Konopaski.
KING 5 s School s Out investigations revealed that many Western Washington school districts have added weekly short days to their calendars.On those days, students either report to school late, or leave early.
The reports also showed how state-approved waivers, which allow districts to legally cut the number of days in their school year, more than tripled in a few years.Typically, schools will receive a three to five day waiver per year.
The state s largest teacher s union is greeting word of the JLARC study with caution.
Really, we re kind of neutral on it, said Washington Education Association President Kim Mead.
Teachers and administrators have been behind increase in early release days.They say the non-classroom time is vital for teachers to engage in collaboration.That is time that teachers spend together to improve the quality of student education.
It s everything from planning a lesson, taking a look at what worked.It s working with your fellow colleagues that teach in the same subject area, said Mead. It s also being able to take a look at that individual student that needs special attention.
The legislature has drastically cut back on the money it used to provide to districts to pay for teacher collaboration and training outside of traditional school hours.So districts say they ve been forced to create that time by cutting into classroom time.
That s sparked the debate that JLARC will help answer:Is that harmful to student learning?
Parents want to see more accountability.They want to see their kids learning.They want them in class, said Sheldon.
JLARC has nearly a year and a half to complete its study.It is due to report back to the legislature in December of 2014.

Symantec links DoD hacks to China
Monday - 1/30/2012, 3:26pm EST
Researchers at Symantec have found more evidence linking attacks on defense contractors to the Chinese, Computer World reports.
A "staging server" hosted by one of the largest ISPs in the country is based in the Beijing area.
The attacks infect the victim's Windows PC with Sykipot by using PDF documents to exploit an Adobe reader bug.
Adobe completed a patch for the bug in Reader earlier this month.

Killer Joe
Tracy Letts, one the countrys hottest playwrights, is on a roll here in Houston. First a production of his play called Bug won huge fans at Theatre Southwest last season. And the Alley Theatre opened the playwrights Pulitzer Prize-winning August: Osage County to glowing reviews earlier this year. Now Big Head Productions is opening Killer Joe, one of Lettss most devastatingly funny and provocative productions ever. The story follows a trashy Texas trailer-park family of nitwitted losers as they fumble their way through a murder for hire. High on weed, beer and television reruns, they call on the skills of Killer Joe Cooper to save the son who gets in some serious debt to the wrong people. Killer Joe, a detective by day and a gun-for-hire by night, agrees to off the target but finds out the family doesnt have any front money for the job, so he decides to take their nubile 20-year-old daughter as a down payment of sorts. The show, which The New York Times called compellingly watchable and a pungent reminder that characters in the theater dont have to be poetic or even passionate to hold your interest, has full frontal nudity and graphic violence. 8 p.m. March 30. Through April 16. Obsidian Art Space, 3522 White Oak. For a full schedule, call 832-889-7837 or visit www.obsidianartspace.org. $15.
Thursdays-Saturdays. Starts: March 31. Continues through April 16, 2011

Hi guys, I'm going to update an item of mine with extra psd version (it's been only in illustrator so far) and I was wondering, do I now upload just a main zip file with just the added PS files, or do I include again the previous AI files and the new PS ones in the zip? I'm guessing it's the latter but just wanted to make sure in case there's no need for a double (heavy) main zip file again.
If you decide to update your item and add some extra files like the PSD yes you still need to upload all the other files that were originally in the Zip file. As you specified you want to add an extra file to your item not change it.
Cool, thanks for the confirmation Constantin.
ConstantinPotorac saidYup, I know. Was just checking in case there was maybe a super secret power system which merges old and new main zip files into one, haha.
As you specified you want to add an extra file to your item not change it.
Thanks again

Having rejuvenated the tired genre, the sequel tightens up the gameplay and spruces up the visuals. Nothing major, but massively fun nonetheless.
Earned In Blood might not seem like a radical departure from the original but the gloriously cascading AI and open maps have effectively transformed it into a very special WWII experience. The fact that there's nothing quite like it in such a crowded genre speaks volumes. [Dec 2005, p.103]
This is one situation where more of the same does not negate the experience. More of the same is more than we could have asked for. It's the brown bun alternative.

The nature of Las Vegas
Area's natural wonders are a welcome respite from crowded casinos
After she died in 1968, the Krupp Diamond was sold at auction to Richard Burton as a gift for wife Liz Taylor. The acting icon wore it almost every day until her death last year.
Info: 6375 State Highway 159, 25 miles from Strip; www.parks.nv.gov, (702) 875-4141; $9 per vehicle entry.
Mount Charleston
The weird part is driving up a winding canyon to get here. Before your very eyes, an austere landscape of desert scrub and Joshua trees suddenly morphs into thick alpine forests.
You can hike more than 40 miles of trails, camp, picnic, horseback ride, and in the winter, snowboard and ski in this lush wilderness dominated by the 11,918-foot-high Mount Charleston peak. And you can also behold what's considered the oldest living organisms on Earth.
That would be bristlecone pines. Take the moderate six-mile Bristlecone Trail, which meanders past ponderosa pines, white firs, and quaking aspens to an isolated hilltop grove of twisting bristlecone trees – a species believed to date back up to 5,000 years.
After your workout, retreat to the A-frame Mount Charleston Lodge and sip a Mountain Mai Tai while marveling at the sumptuous summit views from the deck. If your furry friend is along, order off the doggy menu — $5 for a pooch's turkey burger, $2 for Milk Bones.
Info: Visitor center is at 3321 Kyle Canyon Road, 40 miles from Strip, www.fs.usda.gov, (702) 872-5486
Springs Preserve
Smack-dab in the city, just down from a Circle K convenience store, is "the birthplace of Las Vegas." From the street, you'd never imagine that beyond the gates is the 180-acre Springs Preserve, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. This is the site of the artesian springs that supplied the Vegas valley with water and where Spanish explorers, missionaries, and Native Americans all called home.
Today, you can tour a lovely 8-acre botanical garden that includes fanciful vegetable beds, before hoofing it along 3.65 miles of dusty trails past archeological sites (as you channel the settlers' spirits, try to ignore the altitude-sickening Stratosphere casino in the near distance). While trekking, you'll also see a burned-out caretakers' house and rustic chicken coop from the 1940s railroad era.
"People live here all their lives and they've never even been here," said Tyler Meadows, 53, as he finished a hike with two local friends. "It's not all about gambling. I'd rather come here and walk and be quiet."
Info: 333 S. Valley View Blvd., three miles from Strip; www.springspreserve.org, (702) 822-7700; free access to trails and garden but entry fee for museum and galleries.
Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve
This is something to tweet about. My outing began when "Feather Chaser" Je Anne Branca had me hop in the Birdmobile, a six-person golf cart that takes travelers throughout this tranquil 140-acre, nine-pond refuge in a semi-industrial area.
The gung-ho Branca is a docent and she quickly stopped the Birdmobile, whipped out a spotting scope and had me peer through at a splashing group of Ruddy Ducks.

In a recent decision, Dana Corporation, 356 NLRB No. 49, the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB or "the Board") upheld a letter of agreement entered into by the United Auto Workers ("UAW") and auto parts manufacturer Dana Corporation ("Dana") on behalf of non-unionized employees at its facility in St. Johns, Michigan.. The agreement gave UAW rights to unionize the company's employees without a secret-ballot election, instead providing that the union would be recognized if a majority of employees signed cards in its favor. Union officials and management also negotiated a pre-organization agreement on behalf of employees, stipulating to such items as four-year labor contracts and mandatory overtime.
The agreement required the UAW to begin organization efforts by requesting a list of employee addresses from Dana. When this occurred, several employees filed unfair labor practice charges with the NLRB, claiming that such behavior violated prohibitions against an employer assisted or dominated union. While the UAW never succeeded in collecting a majority of employee signatures, thus ending the organization effort, the case made its way all the way to the Board on review.

2006 BEST New Restaurant, South
Fifty-Three South
Restaurants get made over more often than Ashlee Simpson. But the new incarnation of 53 South is more about-face than facelift. The eatery has moved to snazzier, red-walled digs in an old Pizza Hut and dramatically overhauled its menu, swapping staid French fare for brave global dishes that are better than ever. Our perfect meal: wasabi-crusted tuna with cardamom sticky rice and soy ginger beurre blanc, lemon-rosemary chicken with roasted-garlic corn flan, and lavender crème brûlée. Oh. And a bottle expertly paired by the fine sommelier.

A community of volunteers from different walks of life will offer their time and energy to support the needs of the elderly.
Old age can be tricky. People are living longer, but their quality of life is not always the best. Many suffer from physical ailments and their mental faculties begin to dim with age. They often need emotional and physical support, but don't have their families living close by to offer that help. So many go to old-age homes, where they depend on newly acquired friends or neighbours for help. Others who cannot afford to live in these homes end up being isolated.
But a novel initiative thought of by a group of doctors working in the geriatric department in the city could make things a whole lot easier for the elderly. Parivu, a Senior Citizens Society which will be launched on September 29 will have volunteers from different age groups and various walks of life coming forward to take care of the old people and their needs.
These volunteers are spread across the city and will be available on call to help the elderly take care of activities ranging from the mundane to the urgent.
"The aim of Parivu is to help the elderly population with the activities they are unable to do on their own due to their age. This could range from everyday tasks such as grocery shopping and paying their utility bills to more serious issues like medical care or hospitalisation, for which they will need assistance. We are getting volunteers who will dedicate their time and energy to help them take care of these needs," says Rahul Padmanabhan, a consultant at the Geriatric Department of G. Kuppuswamy Naidu Memorial Hospital (GKNM) and one of the founders of Parivu.
The organisation plans to bring together volunteers from different walks of life. The city and it's nearby suburbs will be divided into zones and each zone will have a group of volunteers. Through a custom-made software, volunteers who have signed up will be sent a group message in case an elderly person from their area requires help. The first person to respond to the message gets in touch with the person needing help directly. Volunteers will also be trained by specialists on skills such as basic cardiac life support (BCLS), soft skills to communicate easily with the elderly, counselling and moving a frail elder person to an ambulance when the need arises. The training will be conducted on weekends over a period of two months.
For the volunteers who have signed up, this is a good way to give back to the elders, and also gives them an additional sense of security. "I recently retired as the Principal of a private school and have a lot more time on hand. I plan to spend this time volunteering to help the elders. Older people often feel insecure and need somebody to talk to and spend time with them," says Roshini Edward, a volunteer.
Other volunteers hope for a return to the joint family system in the long run. "We have been living in a joint family system for many years, and would like that trend to come back. My mother-in-law, who is in her 80s, gets along very well with us and her grandchildren. We take her to watch the latest movies which she enjoys. Being a volunteer for this organisation serves as a natural extension," says Sandhya Nagarajan, another volunteer.
Parivu plans to recognise the best performing volunteers with certificates and will tie up with NGOs with a similar job profile and institutions having Social Work programmes.
