Originally written on Fox Sports Ohio | Last updated 1/17/13
CLEVELAND (AP) -- The Cleveland Browns named Norv Turner their new offensive coordinator on Thursday. Turner, fired by the Chargers as head coach earlier this month, led San Diego to a 59-43 record in six years with three division titles. He also was head coach of the Washington Redskins (1994-2000) and Oakland Raiders (2004-05). New Cleveland coach Rob Chudzinski expects Turner to make a big impact on that side of the ball, and the Browns can use the help. Cleveland went 5-11 last year and scored just 302 points in coach Pat Shurmur's final season. Cleveland also added Mike Sullivan (offensive line), Scott Turner (wide receivers) and Brad Roll (strength) to the staff, and retained Chris Tabor (special teams) and George Warhop (offensive line) from last year. "Norv has been one of the most respected offensive coaches in the NFL over the last 25-30 years, and he has had a tremendous amount of success at each one of his stops -- as a position coach, coordinator and head coach," Chudzi...

I've been doing photography off and on since I was about 10. There was a period when I got to work with large format view cameras and I really enjoyed the results. With the new digital technology, I'm finding large format has a new meaning and find myself drawn toward this work.
I have used both Photoshop CS2 and autostitch for stitching. While photoshop is easier to use, autostitch gives better results when photoshop leaves gaps. The newer versions of Photoshop do an excellent job of stitching.

Members of the LCF Board of Trustees have elected among themselves the new officers for 2013-2014.
Joint Message on the occasion of the World Teachers' Day
A Call for Teachers!
5 October 2013
Teachers hold the keys to a better future for all. They inspire, challenge and empower innovative and responsible global citizens. They get children into school, keep them there and help them learn. Every day, they help to build the inclusive knowledge societies we need for tomorrow and the century ahead. On this World Teachers' Day, we join forces to thank teachers and to call for more, better trained and supported teachers.
Nothing can replace a good teacher. Evidence shows that teachers, their professional knowledge and skills are the most important factor for quality education. This requires stronger training upfront and continual professional development and support, to enhance performance and learning outcomes. We know this and yet, far too often, teachers remain under-qualified and poorly paid, with low status, and excluded from education policy matters and decisions that concern and affect them.
And there are far too few of them today. At the global level, some 5.24 million teachers need to be recruited in order to reach the goal of universal primary education by 2015 -- 1.58 million new recruits and 3.66 million to replace those leaving the profession. The challenge goes beyond numbers – more teachers must mean better quality learning, through appropriate training and support.
This is essential for ensuring every learner's right to quality education – especially, to reach the 57 million children of primary school age currently out of school. At current pace, we estimate that 49 percent of these children will never enter school, while 28 percent will start school late – 54 percent of them are girls. Equally worrying is the low level of learning. An estimated 250 million children are failing to learn to read and write by the time they reach the age for grade 4. Approximately half of these children are in school. The access and learning crisis must be urgently addressed.
Learning is not possible without professional, well trained, well supported, accountable and valued teachers. Teachers are the central solution to the learning crisis, and yet too many are poorly trained and poorly supported – often disconnected from the policy decisions that affect them.
Teachers are central to the provision of safe and supportive learning environments, and yet too many of them are teaching in circumstances of extreme hardship, emergencies and even attacks.
There are however, also bright parts to the picture. We have seen a range of efforts to improve teacher status -- through teacher professionalization and certification schemes, incentives for service in remote or disadvantaged communities, minimum wage laws, career development models, continued professional development, support to female teachers deployed in remote locations, peer-to-peer support and inter-generational mentoring, recognition awards and incentive for teacher progression, raising admission standards for teacher training programmes, public awareness campaigns, free training and recruitment bonuses. All of these practices ensure equality and quality and make a real difference to learning outcomes; they must be scaled up and taken forward.
This is where effective international action is essential, in support of national efforts to bolster teachers and education institutions, and improve the education opportunities of all children. All of this work must ensure that teachers' pay and conditions reflect a commitment to delivering high quality education by a qualified and motivated teaching work force. This is why teachers stand at the heart of the United Nations Secretary-General's Global Education First Initiative to make sure every child goes to school, receives a quality education, and develops a new sense of global citizenship.
This is our call for teachers today. Join us in thanking and supporting the teachers we have and in recruiting new women and men, to shape more effective education systems and prepare young people and adults for active and responsible participation in society. There is no stronger foundation for lasting peace and sustainable development than a quality education provided by well trained, valued, supported and motivated teachers. The education of future generations hangs in the balance unless we can rise to the challenge of putting the best possible teacher in every classroom.

The League of Corporate Foundations was invited to the 3rd Integrity Summit organized by the Makati Business Club and the European Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines. With the theme Building a Nation with Integrity, the summit, held on Sept. 19 at the Makati Shangri-la Hotel, couldn't have been more appropriately timed, in light of the ongoing pork barrel scam.
Delivering the keynote speech was no less than the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the Honorable Maria Lourdes Sereno, who talked about The Constitution's Framework for Addressing Misuse of Public Funds, that included The Powers of the Commission on Audit, The Powers of the Ombudsman, and The Role of the Judiciary in holding accountable public servants and private individuals who steal from government coffers.
Other names in the distinguished list of guest speakers included the Chairperson of the Commission on Audit, Ms. Maria Gracia Pulido-Tan; Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales; Senator Franklin Drilon; and Budget Secretary Florencio Abad.
The Summit also featured Best Practices in Integrity – companies that rated Advanced in the Integrity Validation period of June to August 2013 - that included the Shell Companies in the Philippines and Meralco, whose foundations are long-standing members of the League of Corporate Foundations.
To learn more about the Integrity Summit and Integrity Initiative, visit the official website at http://www.integrityinitiative.com/

Completing the list is Mr. Jeffrey Tarayao (President of One Meralco Foundation, Inc.) who was re-elected into his 2nd term as an LCF Trustee.

We can remember when Rex Ryan called out the entire NFL to beat the New England Patriots. Now, the worst defense in the history of the football, called out the Jets. Jonathan Vilma, a former Jet himself, blasted reporter Larry Holder of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, who quoted an anonymous source that they should fire defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Obviously ticked by the move, Vilma let it fly challenging the unnamed player to step up, or shut it down. Holder contacted Vilma and was told frankly: "I'm bothered you reported it," Vilma said. "We're not the Jets who run to the media for everything." Ouch, when asked if the player was incorrect, Vilma replied: "That's not the question or the point. If he's man enough to tell you, he should be man enough to put his name on it. And you should do the same." var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});

Nice TV.
By Ramberg
from Florida, USA
Works great. Wanted a small TV for my balcony. No complaints.
Perfect for Kitchen counter top
By samsungtvwatcher
from Illinois, USA
We purchased this tv to replace one that sits on the kitchen counter. It is just the right size and stays tucked out of the way when not in use. The picture and sound are great and the remote is easy to use. The remote also works on our other Samsung tv which comes in handy when one is misplaced. We would definitely purchase another Samsung tv in the future, have not been disappointed by one yet!!
Excellent small screen TV.

Lots of features. Wish it had more controls on TV itself. But remote is adequate. Very sharp picture. Easy setup.
Just what I wanted
By arjoriemay

This TV was for a small room, and it was the perfect size. Picture was clear and sharp and with all the necessary functions that were needed for a secondary TV. Very pleased with this product.
Great 19" LED TV

We are short on space but this TV fits like a glove on the counter of our newly remodeled kitchen. Picture quality, sound and ease of installation puts this TV at a 4 star +rating. Thanks Samsung!
Great value for a reasonable price

My 2nd Samsung TV
By Anonymous
from Dearborn, MI, USA
I needed to replace a small 15" TV (sometimes called a kitchen TV). Since they are few and far between these days, I decided to look at Samsung's lineup. I have owned a Samsung big screen TV that I have been very happy with (no issues) for the past 5 years or so. This 19" is an excellent replacement. The audio and picture are excellent. I had no problems setting it up myself in about 10 minutes. The only drawback is that the stand is stationary--you can't tilt it to a more desirable angle (like my previous TV had). Other than that it's a great little TV.

Letter: Haunted by her face
Wendy Stiles
I have lost sleep over the recent stories about children who have died at the hands of parents and caregivers. The sweet face of the little girl who died, having "rotted to death," is something that will be forever imprinted on my brain (March 8 David Waters column, "Andrea's flag flies for all abused, neglected kids").
It brought to mind the many individuals whose profession it is to investigate such horrors — the police, the child welfare workers, the prosecutors who must be intimately familiar with the circumstances, and many others who cannot just put the paper down when the information is too overwhelming.
The rest of us owe a debt of gratitude to all those people.

OLYMPIA (AP) — Washington senators are moving ahead with a proposal that would allow older teens to taste alcohol in college classes.
The plan approved Thursday by the Senate would permit alcohol tasting for students enrolled culinary, beer technology or similar programs. The students must be at least 18 years of age and supervised by faculty or staff at a community or technical college. Students are supposed to taste but not consume the alcohol.
Supporters say the proposal would improve educational programs for students and help them learn about an important industry.
Democratic Sen. Jim Hargrove of Hoquiam opposed the measure, saying he fears that the bill is the first of many that would lower drinking ages and expand access to alcohol.
The measure passed 42-7 and now goes to the state House.

What if the Butterfinger Van got into an accident with, say, the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile? What? It could happen.
For now, though, only the candy van has plans to be in town. The Butterfinger Van Tour will reach Brookfield on Friday, the last stop in a 9-city search for Bart Simpson's missing Butterfinger bar. The tour, the search and an Instant Win game are part of a promotion between Butterfinger and "The Simpsons." There's more on the Butterfinger Facebook page.
From 1 to 5 p.m., the van will be parked at 7-Eleven, 3960 N. Brookfield Road in Brookfield. It will be the only van with 12 characters from "The Simpsons" illustrated on the outside. You won't be able to miss it.

Home Server Recommendations?
There are two things I wish to get input on in this thread, what OS to use for the server, and what kind of a hard drive arrangement I should use in the server.
So here's the scoop. I currently have 4 computers connected to my network: my desktop, laptop, HTPC, and Windows Home Server. The server I use as a file server (99% media related - music and video) and as a backup repository using Windows Home Server's backup stuff. I use both the HTPC and desktop to stream movies and music from the server (the video ranges from being low res downloaded tv shows to 720p .mkv tv shows to Bluray rips (~30GB each). I also use the server as a place for school mates who are working on projects with me to store data related to the project. Right now WHS has an excellent web interface that works perfectly, we can access everything from anywhere.
Okay so first off, I'm considering switching to Windows Server 2008. I have a license for it (from my technet subscription) and I think it might be a better product than WHS. Sure it's not as fool proof and easy to use, but it's far more customizable. I would like to set it up as a VPN (so we can access files from anywhere - for school projects and the like) and file server. I'm going to move all of my documents to the server, rather than storing them on desktop and laptop and backing them up to the server. I'll probably using windows' sync feature on the laptop so that when I go offline I can still get them and then it'll sync up when I get home. What do you guys think? Smart move? Or just stick with WHS. Oh and I don't own WHS yet, I'm still using the trial edition....so if I keep it I'll need to shell out ~$150 CAD for it....
My second question is how to arrange my hard drives if I were to move to Server 2008. In WHS it lumps them all together using it's special file system (just add a hard drive, add it to the "pool", and storage space increases). Since this won't be an option with Server 2008 (or will it? is there something I can use to do this?) I'll need to set them up properly. My main concern is my videos. Right now I have ~500 GB of video files and over time this will increase. As of right now I have a 500GB drive, 2x 320GB drives, and a 250GB drive in the server. This is fine since it pools them all together. But by themselves I wouldn't be able to put all my videos on the same drive, so they'll be split up and I'll have to share multiple drives and it will not be neat. I'm going to pick up a 1TB (maybe 1.5TB) drive soon, but I want this to be really future proof, so should I use spanned volumes? Or just stick with a big drive and hope I never fill it up. I don't want to be stuck it one drive fails (which will happen if I'm using spanning....) and I don't really want to go to RAID5....since I'll need at least 3 big drives...and that will be expensive..So any ideas? What's the best way to do this? Is there a way to make a single folder refer to multiple drives?
Oh and I just thought of another question. Lol. Is there a way to perform a server side file operation (like cut and paste) from a client computer? Right now if I browse to my server and want to move files around in their folders, it copies the folder through the network to my computer then sends it back to the server to the new spot. Is there a way to get the server to just move them without sending to my computer? (other than using remote desktop....that works but is just a bit of a pain)
Sorry for the long winded post....hopefully you guys have some ideas/answers...
Re: Home Server Recommendations?
WHS is the only Windows product that allows disk pooling. You'll need a ZFS file system from Solaris, Linux, Snow Leopard in order to do disk pooling. With your current storage situation, WHS looks like your best bet. Especially since it looks like you're only planning on spending around 100-150 on hard drives. Soft RAID 5 is not going to give you decent IO performance for HD media. You'd need 3 1GB drives and a real raid card. You're going to be looking at over $500 for all of that. I'd stick with WHS personally.
I'm a big fan of WinSSHD/Tunnelier combonation for remote access (Secure RDP, SFTP). FreeSSH will do just as well as long as you configure it properly and Tunnelier. The SFTP client with Tunnelier will let you move directories remotely without copying to your machine first.

APG, www.katholisch.de: Walking on water

Plexiglass or no plexiglass, that pool of water looks to be about a half inch deep. There is no meaningful depth to the pool so there is no walking on water fx.
If I calculated correctly that's over 6 feet deep. No freakin' way!
so is it saying you to can be like God?
or is it supposed to make people wonder how Jesus walked on water?
Really what is the point of this?
••• Why Think When It's Easier To React •••
I think the objective here is to bitterly ridicule unbelievers.
It's like: "Is to believe still something impossible anyhow? Was it only about to see by your eyes or just about bringing you a silly physical reason to have faith?!"
And the implied message is: "The matter is way beyond your dullness."

The Empty Graves
The road passes the tumbled ruins of a village, destroyed and abandoned in regional troubles over a hundred years ago. All that remains are bare foundation stones and the occasional crumbling chimney.
As they pass the crumbling shell of the village's temple, the characters can see that the overgrown churchyard has signs of digging. Many of the ancient, forgotten graves have been dug up recently. Further investigation suggests that grave robbers have been systematically looting those graves that have the most impressive (and thus, expensive) tombstones.

This one could be quite useful: There are many societies that measure a man's wealth by how many cattle he owns... Perhaps the adventurers could be hired in the aftermath of a series of cattle raids, only to discover that the raiders aren't nearly as dangerous as the cattle they have stolen!
The Church might declare the meat from these cattle to be "unclean", triggering a schism as infertile regions that have grown dependent on this "hardy breed" are faced with economic disaster.
I could see places that enjoy gladiatorial-type contests adopting these foul-tempered creatures for bullfights. To misquote Tom Lehrer about bullfighting: "There's nothing as glorious as watching a man face down 1000 pounds of angry, charging pot roast!"

Ceramic Arms
Before the advent of metallurgy, in the neolithic, weapons and helmets were sometimes crafted of ceramic materials. Obviously, these were not very sturdy, so they were limited in their uses.
The presence of magic could change that quite a bit. Ceramic maces and helmets could be quickly cast and issued to rapidly equip a fighting force. If the cantrips reinforcing them were commonplace enough, it could become common for militia or reserve fighting units to be equipped with cheap wooden shields reinforced with fanciful ceramic bosses, colorful ceramic helmets, and maces or even spears with heads of brightly glazed pottery.
If the spell that reinforced the weapons had a limited duration, that might even be an advantage for some rulers: They could issue these items to oppressed peasants or even slaves, knowing that the weapons would become weak and brittle soon after the battle was over.

's comment on 2006-09-11 04:49 PM
Let's see... (Pulls out pencil) If you have 16 goat statues, each for 10 years... (hmmm...) the statue will need to transform 1.6 goats per year to keep up its numbers. If five or more goats remained in the neighborhood, the fountain would have an adequate supply of new statuary. On the other hand, if the details are reversed and the victims remain a goat for 10 years, then turn into a statue for three years, at least 5.33 victims are required annually. This would require a flock of approximately 54 goats wandering nearby.
(hmmm...) You didn't get your figures from that crazy shepherd guy, did you? You know that the crazy ones are no good at division!
Perhaps the heroes might pursue someone into the wasteland, only to discover that their quarry is now a goat. ("The good news is that we caught the famous bandit chieftan Bollerdosh and his vicious henchmen; we also rescued the prince from his clutches! The bad news is that we can't tell which goats are the bandits and which is the prince!)

It seems unfair that this one hasn't been given more attention. I particularly liked the Italian Renaissance ambiance; it summoned up mental images of intricately adorned Florentine palaces and the nobles that dwelt within.
Taking a page from the Decameron (Why not? Everyone else already has...), I picure a group of bored young noble retreating to the countryside to wait out an outbreak of Plague ravaging the cities. While some of the nobles pass the days in frivolous pursuits, romantic intrigues, and telling stories, others disdain the company of their empty-headed peers. One among their number is quite skilled at a simply fascinating new style of art; in the quiet of the pastoral palace, he hopes to complete his masterpiece...
When the creatures of shadow claim their due, there will be nowhere for the shallow nobles to run.

45 year old man | Orlando, FL, USA | Seeking women 32-46 within 75 miles
Active within 24 hours
Passionate about traveling, learning, and living life to the fullest! Just need to find my perfect companion!
I am an easy-going guy who loves to have fun and laugh! I do have a serious side, but I tend to see humor in so many things. Although my professional life keeps me quite busy, I look forward to spending time with friends and family. I grew up in New York, pretty close to NY city. I've been here in Orlando for 10 years. I still miss the culture and excitement of the big city. That may be why I live to travel and explore new cultures. I've explored half of the world and would like to finish off my advertures with someone who has similar interests and desires. I am an extremely spontaneous person and I often jump on a plane to get out of town in a last minute whim. Although some people think this is crazy, I would not have it any other way. My ideal someone is sophisticated, yet cute. She's witty, intelligent, outgoing and ambitious. She enjoys going out with friends, but also appreciates spending quiet nights at home. She definately knows the difference between what is important and what is trivial. Life is too short to be stressed out!!
Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Martial arts, Other types of exercise, Running, Skiing, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Dogs, Horses
Grew up with horses and dogs. I really want a dog but realize it would be too difficult given my long work hours, that fact that I currently live alone in a condo, and that I travel so frequently. One day my furry, slobbering friend will return!
Middle of the Road
My favorite restaurants are sushi restaurants and steakhouses that serve GIANT RARE steaks (Vegetarians and Vegans beware!). I love clubs/restaurants that aren't overly crowded and offer live music. Jazz is fine, but I prefer Classic Rock!
Rollins College, Winter Park, FL
Traveling, Scuba Diving, Classic Rock, U2, Anthony Bourdain, House, Fringe, Peking Duck, Steakhouse in Buenas Aires, Skiing, Gadgets, Good friends, Fine Wine, Continual learning, Scary Movies, Trying anything new at least once!!

Green Line (San Diego Trolley)
The Green Line is a 23.6-mile (38.0 km) light rail line in the San Diego Trolley system, operated by San Diego Trolley, Inc. an operating division of the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS).[2] The Green Line currently operates between Downtown San Diego and the city of Santee.[4][5] The Green Line has the second highest ridership of the San Diego Trolley's three regular lines, transporting 13,673,926 riders during FY 2014 according to the MTS.[1]
The line is one of four lines in the Trolley system, the others include the Blue and Orange and Silver lines.
The Green Line is the third line in the San Diego Trolley system with service beginning on July 10, 2005, upon the completion and opening of the 5.9 miles (9.5 km)[2][3] Mission Valley East extension.[6] The line operates on this extension as well as segments previously served by the Blue Line between the Old Town Transit Center and Mission San Diego, and by the Orange Line east of the Grossmont Transit Center.
The San Diego State University (SDSU) stop on the Green Line is the San Diego Trolley system's only underground station.
2012 realignment[edit]
During a system redesign which took effect on September 2, 2012, as part of the Trolley Renewal Project, the western portion of the Green Line was extended from Old Town south through downtown and the Bayside, terminating at 12th & Imperial Transit Center's Bayside Terminal.[7][5] This redesign allowed for two "universal" transfer points among all three lines, at the 12th & Imperial Transit Center, and at the adjacent Santa Fe Depot/America Plaza stations.[7]

The climber in this photo "may" be off route, which is a concern since bomber gear is 40+ feet below you. When I lead this pitch, I headed up the slab just left of the water streak. There are a few insecure slabby moves (5.8+/5.9-) before a great undercling and some thank god gear. The LF dihedral will take you to a good ledge.
I have heard that a well known 5.13 climber backed off of this pitch. This one definitely gets the juices flowing...

Living Walden Two
B. F. Skinner's Behaviorist Utopia and Experimental Communities
The secret life of Utopias and Utopians
In Walden Two, behavioral psychologist B. F. Skinner describes one of the most controversial fictional utopias of the twentieth century. During the 1960s and 70s, this novel went on to inspire approximately three dozen actual communities, which are entertainingly examined in Hilke Kuhlmann's Living Walden Two.
In the novel, behavioral engineers use positive reinforcement in organizing and "gently guiding" all aspects of society, leaving the rest of the citizens "free" to lead happy and carefree lives. Among the real-world communities, a recurrent problem in moving past the planning stages was the nearly ubiquitous desire among members to be gentle guides, coupled with strong resistance to being guided.
In an insightful and often hilarious narrative, Hilke Kuhlmann explores the dynamics of the communities, with an in-depth examination of the two surviving Skinnerian communities: Comunidad Los Horcones in Mexico, and Twin Oaks in Virginia. Drawing on extensive interviews with the founders and key players in the Walden Two communities, Kuhlmann redefines the criteria for their success by focusing on the tension between utopian blueprints for a new society and communal experiments' actual effects on individual lives.
"Based on impeccable research, Living Walden Two is the best treatment of this subject in print. Kuhlmann's study stands to become the definitive work on the impact of Skinner's behavioral plan for utopia on the founding and development of intentional communities."--Donald E. Pitzer, editor of America's Communal Utopias

Finance chief Kan to become Japan's prime minister
TOKYO Japan's ruling party picked grass-roots populist Naoto Kan as its new chief Friday, paving his way to replace political blueblood Yukio Hatoyama as prime minister while the party struggles to reclaim public support ahead of July elections.
"My task is to rebuild this nation," Kan said, stressing the need to spur economic growth and confront problems linking "money and politics."
Kan, 63, was finance minister under the unpopular Hatoyama, who stepped down Wednesday amid plunging approval ratings over broken campaign promises and a political funding scandal. Because the Democratic Party of Japan controls the more powerful lower house of parliament, Kan was virtually certain to be chosen as prime minister by lawmakers later in the day.
As prime minister, Kan will face daunting choices in how to lead the world's second-largest economy, which is burdened with massive public debt, sluggish growth and an aging, shrinking population. He must also rally voter support ahead of upper house elections that are due next month.
"We will work together as one in the face of the tough political situation and the upcoming upper house election and fight together unified," he said.
He also told party members that they need deal with "money and politics" and come clean.
"Our first priority is to regain the trust of the people," he said in a speech before the vote.
On foreign policy, Kan described the relationship with the U.S. as vital, but stressed the importance of Japan's ties with regional neighbors.
"With the U.S.-Japan alliance the cornerstone of our diplomacy, we must also work for the prosperity of the Asian region," he said in a speech.
Kan defeated little-known Shinji Tarutoko, chairman of the lower house environmental committee, by a vote of 291-129, with two invalid ballots. After the vote, the two shook hands and raised their hands together.
In a written candidate's statement Friday, Kan identified economic recovery and growth as Japan's biggest challenge. Japan is the slowest growing economy in Asia, and will almost certainly be overtaken in size by China sometime this year. While exports and factory output are rising, unemployment and deflation are worsening.
"I will tackle and pull Japan out of deflation through comprehensive measures from the government and the Bank of Japan," he said in the statement, hinting that he would seek greater cooperation from the central bank.
He pledged to resume fiscal reforms and work toward sustainable finances, including possible tax hikes, to ensure a strong social security system for Japan's aging population. Addressing concerns about financial scandals, he vowed to keep politics clean and tighten campaign financing laws.
Kan is seen by many analysts as the DPJ's best hope for restoring confidence in its ability to govern and deliver a viable roadmap for the future.
He is everything Hatoyama was not - decisive, outspoken and with common roots. Unlike recent prime ministers, he was not born into an elite political family. Several past prime ministers, including Hatoyama, had fathers or grandfathers who were also prime ministers.
