"The principles of our party and our vision for the country are contained in the Platform," Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement. "It is a document of immense importance and a testament to our dedication to individual liberty, economic freedom, and limited government."
The convention, which begins Aug. 27 in Tampa, Fla., is expected to see Mitt Romney confirmed as the GOP presidential nominee. It could also be the forum for Romney's announcement of his running mate. McDonnell's name has repeatedly come up in speculation for Romney's short list of vice presidential possibilities. The popular governor, who can only serve one term, indicated in late May that he had not yet been asked for vetting information, but declined to answer questions on the subject starting last month.
Co-chairmen Sen. John Hoeven (R-N.D.) and Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) will join McDonnell on the committee. Hoeven discussed some of the issues the committee will face in an interview with The Hill last month.
McDonnell promised to listen to "voters across the country" as he begins the process of preparing the platform, and Blackburn promised to offer solutions.
The committee is scheduled to meet Aug. 19-21 in Tampa, according to the press release from convention organizers.

Taking place form March 14-May 4, 2013 at MADE in Toronto, this installation by Scott Eunson is an adaptable textural environment that evokes the scaling, fractal patterns seen throughout nature. Developed over many iterations, a natural, structural form emerges – an organic minimalism. Composed of a set of tetrahedral units of various sizes and complexities, the installation is adaptable to suit the locations where it is installed. Lighting is introduced to create a secondary texture of shadows that are cast into the surrounding space, the back corners of the cooler becoming obscured by layers of pattern.
The material used is a custom two-sided, high-pressure laminate from Wilsonart. Cut with a cellular pattern, the planar character of the material is transformed. Assembled into three-dimensional forms, the pieces exist as objects, but also partly remain as representations and abstractions. They are not completely real.
Scott Eunson has been exploring the grey area between the realms of art and design, creating sculptural pieces in a variety of materials. Over the past 15 years, he has exhibited in solo and group shows to critical success. Eunson has produced several large public art works for the TTC and the City of Toronto in collaboration with artist Marianne Lovink.
The opening reception takes place on Thursday, March 14 from 7:00pm to 9:00pm.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favourite Classical Author,
Arch Stanton (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lives: v. 7 (Loeb Classical Library) (Hardcover)
Since there are so many of these darn things the review shall be divided into three sections. First, a brief description of the Loeb series of books and their advantages/disadvantages. Second shall be my thoughts on the author himself, his accuracy, as well as his style and the style of his translator. This is of course only my opinion and should be treated as such. The final part shall review what this particular book actually covers.
The Loeb series date back to the turn of the last century. They are designed for people with at least some knowledge of Greek or Latin. They are a sort of compromise between a straight English translation and an annotated copy of the original text. On the left page is printed the text in Greek or Latin depending on the language of the writer and on the right side is the text in English. For somebody who knows even a little Greek or Latin these texts are invaluable. You can try to read the text in the original language knowing that you can correct yourself by looking on the next page or you can read the text in translation and check the translation with the original for more detail. While some of the translations are excellent mostly they are merely serviceable since they are designed more as an aid to translation rather than a translation in themselves. Most of them follow the Greek or Latin very closely. These books are also very small, maybe just over a quarter the size of your average hardcover book. This means that you'll need to buy more than just one book to read a complete work. They are also somewhat pricey considering their size. The Loeb Collection is very large but most of the more famous works can be found in better (and cheaper) translations elsewhere. If you want to read a rarer book or read one in the original language then you can't do better than the Loeb Editions.
There are 11 volumes of Plutarch's Lives as well as a further 16 of his Moralia in the Loeb series which includes all his known works. Plutarch is without doubt my favorite Classical author. His books are personal, entertaining, and he just comes across as a generally warm and friendly guy. That last part is very rare in Classical authors. His most famous works are his Lives. These were basically mini-biographies of famous men. The writing of Lives was very popular in Antiquity with Suetonius being perhaps the most famous example. What makes Plutarch's different however is the way that he captures the character and the ability of his subjects. Unlike other Lives which divide their subject into topics and then record these out of context, Plutarch's ones follow a chronological order. He also took more care over them than others did. Lives were considered less reputable than Histories but Plutarch treated his like mini-Histories. The interpretation might be different but he is rarely caught out in errors except where his sources make the same errors. Also unlike most Classical writers he doesn't go overboard on the moralizing. These works were written to educate and instruct but the basic lessons are simple enough and he only goes into ethical conclusions in his comparison after each paired life.
This is one of the rare times where I really think that the Loeb translations are the best ones out there. While these works are available for cheaper elsewhere (Modern Library Volumes 1 and Volume 2) they are generally based off the Dryden translation. Avoid the Dryden translation. It is very old (1683) and a lot of these "new" translations are simply the Dryden translation with a few spelling and wording changes to make it sound more modern. While the Loeb translations may seem older (the 1910s) they are at least written in modern English translated directly from the Greek. The Penguin ones are better but for some reason they felt the need to split them up by era (On Sparta [Lycurgus, Agesilaus, Agis, Cleomenes, and some Spartan Sayings], The Rise and Fall of Athens [Theseus, Solon, Themistocles, Aristides, Cimon, Pericles, Nicias, Alcibiades, Lysander], The Age of Alexander [Agesilaus, Pelopidas, Dion, Timoleon, Demosthenes, Phocion, Alexander, Demetrius, Pyrrhus], The Makers of Rome [Coriolanus, Fabius Maximus, Marcellus, Cato the Elder, Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus, Sertorius, Brutus, Mark Antony], Rome in Crisis [Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus, Sertorius, Lucullus, Younger Cato, Brutus, Antony, Galba, and Otho], The Fall of the Roman Republic [Marius, Sulla, Crassus, Pompey, Caesar, Cicero]). These were dual Lives. They paired off famous Greeks with famous Romans and compared their careers, the idea being that they had similar virtues and vices. Splitting them up like that ruins the original intent of the author and removes the analysis after each pair. Even when the comparison seems forced it is at least evident why Plutarch included what he did.
Demosthenes and Cicero. Alexander and Caesar.

The Industry Standard's Jake Widman circles back to question several technology pundits who a year ago pooh-poohed the iPhone as a poorly designed first dabbling by Apple — or worse, the device that would bring down Apple entirely. Many did not respond. Those that did had varying responses, from Rob Enderle's claim that it's "still [not] a great phone" to others who eat a little crow and say that it's obviously striking a chord for some buyers. A few actually had purchased iPhones for themselves. It's easy to snigger at a pundit's failure to properly forecast, but let's be fair: the iPhone could have been a flop...if the mass market's needs reflected those of tech pundits. (And while the iPhone certainly has captured perhaps more than its share of attention in the tech press, it's still not a smash hit yet. There are still only a few million iPhones on the market.) If anything, Widman's piece underlines one of my own personal bugbears about the technology prognostication business: most of us writing about technology don't know all that much about the market in general. Sure, I think I've got a pretty good grip on trends by dint of writing about the consumer electronics market almost daily for five years, but I've been wrong about the future as much or more than I've been right. (Bluetooth headphones are going to be the hit accessory of 2006, everyone!) I'm not trying to hide incompetence behind flippancy, either. I really do try to think this stuff through and offer my best guess. ("I predict the far flung future of...2010!") But most technology writers have a journalism background, not a hands-on technical one, and even those of us who came out of the IT or engineering world (like I did, nominally, with a couple of years of mediocre web development and sysadminning) rarely have a good grasp of design, advertising, or market forces that affect the success of a product as much or more than technical specifications. The obvious point of reference is the iPod. When I took over Gizmodo there was still a very active debate about whether or not the iPod would succeed in the MP3 player market. A couple of years later it was clear from sales numbers alone that Apple had dominated the market, but that didn't stop vocal internet geeks from decrying not just the iPod as it applied to their needs (fair) but as it applied to the millions of others who seemed to like their iPods just fine (unfair). Even Microsoft spent millions launching platform after platform to try to fight off the iPod well after it was clear the market had spoken. Anyway, what was I talking about? Someone just handed me a melon. I think I remember my point: holding pundits who write incendiary articles to the fire is a good thing. Keeps them honest. But even when the pundits are right, it's mostly all a wild guess. I don't mean to undermine my entire livelihood here, but I don't think it's a big secret that most of us in this industry are just regular technology fans with no special insight or skills beyond the luxury of a job that lets us pay slightly closer attention to our subject matter than our readers. I hope that doesn't sound really pessimistic. And if fact there are many really smart writers out there doing good work. (Mike Masnick, Tim Wu (who didn't like the iPhone!), Loyd Case and Jason Cross, much of the Ars gang, etc.; few I would saddle with the term "pundit".) I probably should have just called Dvorak a toolish prevaricator and been on my way. In fact this whole article is a mess, but when you're a tech pundit, you've got to publish whatever you end up writing, even if it's completely ludicrous, or else people might stop reading.

I do not believe that the popularity of the iPhone is a reasonable counter argument to those who claim it was poorly designed, etc.
The Hummer was immensely popular among those who could afford them. American Idol is popular, and so on.
Popularity =/= good
@LogrusZed: That's a pretty good point. My only quibble: American Idol is extremely well designed.
Well with AI I would place it into a category more along the lines of a death camp. Something which was well designed to do horrible things.
re: Dvorak
Prevaricator or Provacateur?
@#1, Logruszed: It is indeed a poor counter-argument, but that's not to say better ones don't exist. There's pretty compelling evidence that iPhone buyers also make heavy use of their iPhones, and that does suggest good design.
Who cares about tech pundits' predictions, anyway? If there's any value to this kind of journalism, it's in the information, not the opinions. (That makes the comments the least valuable thing of all.) I hope this doesn't hurt anyone's feelings.
Yeah, so instead of being all "It's horrible and it won't sell" or "It's great and everybody needs to buy one!", why don't you just tell us what it does and let us decide for ourselves?
Actually open the box, use it for a week and then tell us about it, not about your opinion on whether it will be a best seller.
If pundits were any good, they probably wouldn't need to make a living selling their punditry as journalism or analysis.
That's not just a "future is impossible to predict" thought-stopper, though. I find it quite intriguing to think that there *are* real, proven experts, but they're all working as consultants.
Better still, perhaps such savants are the best designers: they can predict the likely future very accurately, and their genius is to force it to happen sooner, and to their employer's benefit.
I've been a tech writer now for close to 10 years…prior to that I worked in the cutting edge in tech for another 6. I've written for O'Reilly, ZDNet, and tons of other tech publications…and I gotta say I've had a pretty good run of predictions. And the reasons I do pretty well is that I:
a) never forget that I'm a user/customer. I always think of myself and the people I know when writing about something. If I wouldn't actually part with my hard earned money for a product or service…I know it is doomed…no matter how cool it is.
b) I always get spousal approval. If my wife doesn't get it…a lot of folks won't.
I've been off on a few things…but mostly predicting what I think is the best technology on the horizon…and even then it is generally because I'm too early to the party.
On the pundit side however…these are folks who are paid to say crazy things to generate buzz and pageviews…whether quoted or actually writing the piece. Trash talk sells…we all know that.
I bought my iPhone the day they went on sale. I've never regretted it and it far exceeds any phone I've had…and I've had a lot. No device is perfect but it comes pretty darn close…close enough that my die hard Windows loving/anti cell phone brother-in-law is going to buy an iPhone and MacBook this year.
I think that some tech writers, like professional opinionists in general, are contrary simply for the sake of being contrary. I mean, if they say the same thing as everyone else–such as, the iPhone is a pretty amazing, if somewhat expensive, bit of technology–then why would their services be needed? Better to be wrong, but talked about. That is John Dvorak's career in a nutshell.
well said joel!
i think that what you're saying applies to any skilled job such as tech, mechanic, writer, or even doctor. we make an educated guess about a situation based on previous experience. sometimes we get it right and sometimes we don't. with a little luck it's mostly the former.
prediction is hard in all fields. When a bunch of Russia experts (from various Western countries) were called to explain why they didn't predict the collapse of the USSR in 1988, their explanations were all variations of "if this small variable was different, my prediction would have worked", rather than "yeah, I completely goofed".
(tech writing so very much = poli sci)
what's interesting in predictions is the factors the predictor chooses to emphasize as important; the actual prediction itself is less important than getting a grasp on where things could go.
Joel, have you already seen James Burke's Connections?
p.s. Though I think the iPod was obvious given Saehan's MPman in 1997, which Diamond later licensed as the Rio. Nearly all other electronics manufacturers at the time wanted to play it safe by adding MP3-CD support to their portable CD players, but what they failed to realize was that it's precisely the battery-draining and stabilization costs of rotating a disc media that made the compact disc terrible for portable music, while solid-state (ok, hard drives have platters too) solves all of those very same problems. (The MPman ran off a single AA battery.)
The iPhone is much more ambivalent because it lacks so many features found in a typical Blackberry / "smartphone", and in my experience nearly all Apple users are/were also using T-Mobile since they had the most affordable data plans (and didn't cripple their phones, such as disabling Bluetooth profiles). So people feel like they're making many trade-offs with buying-in to the iPhone. (Although, signing up for a plan through iTunes at home was a brilliant step forward; one which Amazon seems to have copied if you buy a Blackberry with T-Mobile, but not nearly as smooth as Apple did it.)
'Yes, I was wrong, but I was wrong in the RIGHT direction. Think of the disaster if I had been wrong the other way! At least with my faulty prediction, we were all SAFE!'
My advice: apply the positive counterfactual argument.
One great thing that my old company decided to do (next to the many, many dumb and awful things) was implement a massive programme of customer interviews based around Kim & Mauborgne's "Value Innovation" methodology. Going into people's homes and seeing how they felt about services and used them every day was revelatory.
In my experience, many of the people who knock the iPhone (and Apple in general) fall into the same elephant trap that most product designers also fall into – in order to be a perfect product, it has to have the largest, most comprehensive feature set possible, appealing to all possible consumers. To be better, it has to be "more".
Then a consumer gets their hands on the product, and faced with a bewildering array or options, acronyms and interfaces designed by cocaine addled spiders, they give up.
For example, people complained that the iPod didn't have an FM radio built-in. Well, it wasn't designed as an MP3 player AND FM radio, so that is hardly suprising. My Nokia phone *does* have FM radio built in, but that only works if I remember to bring the special FM-aerial earpiece thingie, and can be bothered to work out the badly designed software that makes it work. Guess what – I don't use it to listen to radio – it is too much effort.
The iPhone 3G doesn't do video calls – what an omission! But when I got a Nokia N80, I hunted through my phone address book to find someone who also had a 3G phone, and spent 20 mins discussing with him how we could possibly get a video call going. In the end, even after him turning his 3G on (it was off to conserve battery, as everyone I know who has a 3G phone does), the calls failed… Vodafone and Orange did not allow cross-network video calls. Guess what – I never tried to call anyone using video again. And my next Nokia was an 8800 – a Series 40 "dumbphone" that pretty much just makes calls.
In order for most products to be better, they usually need to do less, but better. And in that respect, Apple does pretty well. They pick clearly defined market segments, and build them great products. That every product does not appeal to every consumer is a sign of their product design strength, not weakness.
That said, I believe the lack of copy/paste on iPhone is just plain weird in its dumbness.
In the end, even after him turning his 3G on (it was off to conserve battery, as everyone I know who has a 3G phone does)
Funny, everyone I know would rather spend the extra $40 for a replacement battery that lasts twice as long, rather than thinking about turning their features on and off.
That every product does not appeal to every consumer is a sign of their product design strength, not weakness.
When I read a technology article I'm much more interested in whether I want to buy it than if other people will.
OK, there's exceptions. If I'm an investor or retailer I might care, or if the gadget only works at its best if there are many other users, then sure.
But otherwise, being a good tech writer doesn't require understanding the market that well. Most readers only want a good analysis of whether they should buy the product.

Snow in Cairo: Yes, You Read That RightBy: Heather Vecchioni - December 14, 2013
In wacky weather news, Cairo was slammed with a winter storm today, leaving over a foot of the white stuff all over the city.
Jerusalem also received the storm's wrath, as more than three feet of snow was dumped out on the city, trapping hundreds in their vehicles and leaving thousands without power.
Getting rain in these parts is rare – Cairo receives less than an inch each year – let alone snow. In fact, no one really knows just how long it has been since Cairo saw snow, as historical records are difficult to ascertain.
However, Jerusalem isn't as much of a stranger to winter weather; it receives snow of more than six inches about every five to seven years. At least every two to three years it sees some sort of snow.
Although some are enjoying the snow, it has also created hardships for many. The Israeli Defense Forces has been called into help, and the cold temperatures and harsh snow have made conditions even more unbearable for Syrian refugees who are living in Lebanon in makeshift tents and abandoned buildings.
The snow has shut down most of the airports in the area and was the cause of two major flights being diverted. Additionally, most of the towns in the storm's wake are immobilized.
Adding insult to injury, another major storm is set to strike, possibly pounding the area with even more snow Friday night into Saturday. The storm could be three times the size of what just passed through.
Folks flocked to Twitter to discuss the storm:

Welcome to the Vermont Almanac, an eclectic history of natural history that will eventually include a bit of information about a natural phenomenon, a naturalist, a nature-based celebration, or a vestige of earlier, more natural times for every day of the year. We will also offer links to the best Web sites on each of our subjects and recommend our favorite books along the way.
This online almanac is a Web-site-in-progress brought to you by naturalist/author Gale Lawrence and artist Libby Walker Davidson. Because all three of us live and work in Vermont, we have also created a second Web-site-in-progress specific to Vermont.
Our two Web sites will be linked when there's a cross-reference, but they are actually quite different in content, format, and purpose. To navigate either, go to the home page you want, click on a month, and then click on one of the highlighted dates.
We hope you will find one or the other — or both — of our Web sites useful.

Wilshire Credit Corporation ReviewsWilshire Credit Corporation 8
I have been working at Wilshire Credit CorporationRecommendsNo opinion of CEORecommendsNo opinion of CEO
There is a frenetic environment filled with can-do people at Wilshire. The compensation is acceptable and the benefits are generous. They treat there employees well.
The productivity demands are enormous. There is an extraordinary amount of information to know and the changes to processes and procedures are daily. The training of new employees is lax.
Advice to Management
The can-do attitude is great but the desire to respond to a given problem often appears reactionary and poorly thought out. Jay Memmot inspires terrific confidence as the CEO. He is the smartest person in every room and is sincere in his personal investment with Wilshire.

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day – interviewed at Wilshire Credit Corporation in August 2009.
There was a very strong good cop/bad cop vibe going on during the interview. They aren't interested in your background, or enthusiasm, they're interested in your knowledge of the BABOK however, they don't ask their questions in a way that will provide them the answers they're looking for. State briefly that you have performed the task before, then provide the BABOK definition for the function.

Tide tables and solunar tables for sport fishers in Springmaid Pier. Find out the forecast for high tides and low tides before setting out to fish, and other fishing-related data such as the lunar phase, tidal coefficient, sun and moon rising and setting times, hours of maximum fish activity, weather conditions in Springmaid Pier ...
We want you to enjoy to the max a well-planned fishing expedition! Good luck!
Today Wednesday, 1st of July of 2015, the sun rose in Springmaid Pier at 6:09 am and sunset was at 8:30 pm. The moon set at 5:48 am at 248º southwest. Then, the moon rose at 111º southeast at 8:02 pm.
In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide was at 1:32 am and the next low tide at 1:32 pm. The first high tide was at 7:16 am and the next high tide at 7:50 pm.
The lunar phase is a Full Moon. Today we had 14 hours and 21 minutes of sun. The solar transit was at 1:20 pm and the length of time the moon will be visible will be 5 hours and 48 minutes.
The tidal coefficient today is 88, a high value and therefore the range of tides and currents will also be high. At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 90 to end the day with a tidal coefficient of 92. The tide heights today are 0.0 ft, 4.9 ft, -0.3 ft and 6.2 ft. We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Springmaid Pier which is of 7.2 ft and a minimum height of -1.6 ft.
The solunar fishing calendar in Springmaid Pier tells us that today is an excellent day for fishing, the fish activity forecast is very high. Please, read more about solunar tables. The best times of day for fishing are:
| from 12:28 am to 2:28 am, very high activity Major period (moon up)
from 5:48 am to 6:48 am, very high activity minor period (moonset). This period of high activity coincides with sunrise; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing
from 12:55 pm to 2:55 pm, very high activity Major period (moon down)
from 8:02 pm to 9:02 pm, very high activity minor period (moonrise). This period of high activity coincides with sunset; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing
Tide timetable for Springmaid Pier. The times are generated in local time in South Carolina and the daylight saving time change is calculated automatically, so you don't need to add or subtract anything. You will also have the lunar phase, sunrise and sunset times, the tidal coefficient and the average fish activity forecast for each day according to the solunar tables:
[ 0 low activity ] , [ average activity ] , [ high activity ] , [ very high activity ]
NOTE: The times reflected in the tide table for Springmaid Pier are tide forecasts only valid as references for sport fishing. They shouldn't be used as a guide for navigation. The heights are expressed in feet referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).
MLLW is the average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over the official time segment over which tide observations are taken and reduced to obtain mean value (Tidal Datum Epoch).

Automakers sold 32 percent fewer vehicles than last year
Automakers sold 838,156 vehicles in October, 32 percent fewer than the same month last year and the worst performance since January 1991, according to Autodata Corp. and Ward's AutoInfoBank.
The seasonally adjusted annual sales rate of 10.6 million vehicles was the lowest since February 1983.
General Motors' October U.S. sales plunged 45 percent, and Ford and Chrysler weren't far behind, as low consumer confidence and tight credit combined to bring sales to an "unsustainably weak level" that is the worst in 25 years.
