Friday, 27 Aug 2010 06:25 PM
First, it was too close to call. Then it was called. Now, the second-place finisher is second-guessing the call.
Vermont's unsettled Democratic gubernatorial primary got even less settled Friday, with an official vote tally confirming state Senate President Pro Tem Peter Shumlin's victory and also-ran Doug Racine responding by announcing he'll seek a recount.
"We want to know for sure," said Racine, a 57-year-old state senator. "I want to know for sure. He does as well."
Shumlin had a 192-vote lead in unofficial results from Tuesday's five-way race. In official results released Friday after a vote tally by the Secretary of State's office, his lead grew to 197 votes, while Racine picked up 79.
Shumlin, who said he was encouraged by the new vote totals, nonetheless said he respected Racine's decision to seek the recount.
Under Vermont law, a losing candidate can seek a recount if the margin of victory is 2 percent of the total votes cast in the race — in this case, 1,492 votes or less than the 74,634 ballots cast.
In fact, two candidates could seek the recount. Secretary of State Deb Markowitz finished with 696 votes less than Shumlin, which is within the margin. But she said she had no plans to ask for a recount.
Racine can't file his petition for the recount until after a canvassing board meets Tuesday to certify the vote results, which is a formality. Once he files, ballots from all 14 of Vermont's counties will be examined one by one under the supervision of a judge.
The last time Vermont had a recount in a statewide election, the result was overturned. That was in the state auditor's race in 2006, when a 239-vote swing in the recount gave the office to Thomas Salmon, who had apparently lost to incumbent Randy Brock on election night.
That played into Racine's decision, as did the fact that town clerks told him there was room for error in the vote-counting process and encouraged him to challenge the result, he said, noting that picking up even one vote in each of Vermont's 246 cities and towns could be enough to change the outcome.
Shumlin, who spoke with Racine before Racine announced he'd seek the recount, had nothing bad to say about the decision.
"I am encouraged by the unofficial certified numbers released by the Secretary of State today, which show me receiving more votes than the other contenders. Doug is a great candidate who ran a great race. I understand that Doug is going to exercise his legal right to a recount and I respect his decision."
In the 2006 recount, it took six days to count about 260,000 ballots. Since this election had far fewer votes, it could take only about three days to complete, according to Markowitz.
Racine acknowledged that the odds of overturning the result were probably against him.
He said he would do all he could to expedite the process, including allowing optical scanning machines to count votes instead of hand counts, when possible.
"The overwhelming sentiment of my supporters the last several days has been to ask for a recount. They want to know for sure. And I think I owe it to them and I think I owe it to Vermonters, to know that this is indeed the right outcome that the numbers show us today," Racine said.

Talking to strangers
A few days back my aged taxi driver Abdullah informed me of how Hafez was far from being a purist, he was a diluter of true Persian culture, writing in an Arab form. He quoted Ferdowsi and said, "now he is the man to study for pure Persian literary gems – go read Ferdowsi and take some time away from Hafez." I nodded remarking that maybe my summer read should indeed be the Shahnameh. He smiled, "It has no words from Arabic in it, not even remotely." "Yes, I must immerse into it, not just the bits and pieces that I pick and choose like Rostam and Sohrab."
After some chit-chat about Dutch weather and an Indian Summer, he started nodding his head to some internal music: "No don't spend time on kings this summer," he said, "read Khayyam and go all romantic." I laughed, "Nightingales, Wine and Roses!" I exclaimed. We chuckled like conspiring children.
In the meantime my eight-year old looked out of the window.
The moment we got off, Bambi crossed his arms, "Listen Mom no talking to strangers. How many times do I have to tell you?"
The dance of Gods
The blood of Mahisasura dripping from her wrists
His decapitation each year, year after year
I like that story of Krishna
At the back of his throat, she could see, the whole universe
The sun, moon, stars, asteroids and meteors – his tonsils and uvula
Did he eat them all?
You offer aparajita and bhel leaves to Shiv
And, hibiscus for Ma, mandaar, here touch the petals gently
All this jasmine I sit threading into gajras for her hair
Every summer – the smell of heated cement and sleeping tulsi
Look at how the saptrishi glow, they call it the Big Dipper here
And, what do they call matsya? Oh, he's the big fish
Streets coiled like the braids of his hair
Ganga gushes forth
Will a tandav redeem this world?
They don't let you take pictures post visarjan
All those floating body parts
Did he say the world went on unashamed?
Mahisasura needs to be killed yearly
Flowers offered daily
I tell her I like Krishna
He laughs
Nothing more melodious than the sound of anklets on little feet
Light and Water: Visual Poetry
Video: central Amsterdam under water in a poetic light display.
"After having us cycle along starry night bike paths, Dutch artist and innovator Daan Roosegaarde has now turned his attention to the power of water. Just over one quarter of the Netherlands is below sea level and the sea is kept at bay by a network of dykes, dams and other water defences. But what would happen if they weren't there? 'Waterlicht is the dream landscape about the power and poetry of water,' Roosegaarde says on Studio Roosengaarde website. 'Innovation is within the DNA of the Dutch landscape via its waterworks and creative thinking, yet we almost seem to forgotten this.' The installation Waterlicht consists of wavy lines of light made with the latest LED technology, software and lenses. It was created for the Dutch Rijn & IJssel waterboard and was at the Museumplein in Amsterdam for three nights earlier this month."

PK after thodi si peeke
Have the reviews and counter-reviews for PK died down? Because, in that case, now would be a good time to write down my thoughts about the movie. For starters: I did enjoy the film and here I will try to delve a little into why I was motivated to do so, amongst usual blog-like meanderings.
On a side note (that did not take long), I have come to notice the stylistic aspects of Bollywood cinema: Sanjay Leela Bhansali's opulent, colorful, glitzy sets, choreographed dance dramas, the earthy sounds of thumping dhol and bold matriarchs. The celebrate-your-Indian-family even outside India, Manish Malhotra-esque sob sagas, return of the prodigal sons of Karan Johar. The rustic, gutsy, dusty landscape of Vishal Bhardwaj, complete with ethnic sounds and dialogues, from globalize to lets localize. The friends, journeys, finding your own light in the midst of many others, the disco, urban accounts of the Akhtar siblings. The light-hearted, tropical, catchy beats, slick intertextual (references to other films) tales of Farah Khan, and, now I can add to that the social-phenomena-motivated stories of Raj Kumar Hirani. In a Hirani movie we must have a female media person, a down-to-earth funny hero who turns things around, a national chant for change and waltz numbers with scooters or cycles.
I enjoyed the meta texture in PK. For example, the picture of Gandhi only holds value when it is linked to economics; the only images – on calendars, notebooks, posters – are tossed away. While I'm no Gandhian like Hirani is, and I do understand the nature of currency and markets, I could see the inherent philosophical nature of that scene. That cultures develop to associate value to otherwise meaningless things – white for the bride, white for the widow – that it is indeed a human attribute to start constructing social rituals – it was intriguing, humorous, and ironical to watch it in the Indian context.
Jagat Janani, the meaning of that particular name intrigued me, who is Jagat Janani? Mother Nature or is this a reference to the Mother Goddess. She is female. In relationship to her is the alien character, a male, who questions the social formations – of religion and culture. The juxtaposition of the male as being otherworldly, and Jaggu as that which gives birth to the 'jagat' or world was quite a gripping proposition and if one were to explore this further I am sure we could work on a layered referencing to this within the text of the film. It is Jaggu who notices the odd one out in 'her' world, it is she who helps him understand strands (firki and otherwise) that PK has missed. And, above all it is she who is kind (gender trouble – ahem!). She is given an identity, a name by the 'bad guy' is this an urge to rethink (for who has dictated how the world should proceed) how we have thought and defined the origin of the world and the nature of living.
The music of the film is lovely. I have enjoyed each song on the track, the robust Rajasthani sounds in "Tharki Chokro." I was repeatedly reminded of Parineeta while listening to the numbers – "Chaar Kadam" like "Piyu Bole" and "Bhagwan Kahan" like "Raat Hamari" and when I was looking up information about these two films I found that these songs shared the same music director Shantanu Moitra, same lyricist Swanand Kirkire and in the case of "Chaar Kadam" and "Piyu Bole" they were sung by Shaan and Shreya Ghoshal. Quite the coincidence!
As expats, and migrants, we meet Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Sri Lankans, who are mistaken as Indians, or (unfortunately) clubbed together as Indians. Sometimes, (again very unfortunately) the larger section of the populace misses the point that these are countries with varied cultures, influences and they have rich, heterogeneous heritages. This point gets beautifully put across by Sushant Singh Rajput who plays such a subtle and lovable role. An Amitabh-loving, Urdu poet, studying, working a part-time job at the embassy, humorous, shy, well-mannered, respectful, what a wonderful way to re-think the manner in which we perceive. Finally, who betrays is not so much the guy who we have been taught to suspect but our own narrow-mindedness. Perhaps, it is naïve to think this way, maybe the third generation of Indians (for this is an Indian film) post the independence have softened their views on partition, however, and as part of that generation, and the descendant of grand-parents who have lived through the living nightmare that 1947 was, maybe it is time for a rethink. And, if we as human being lose the ability to challenge and question, to learn and move on, then maybe this "gola" is truly "lul."
The question of religion or the religion question, whether within – worship the small idol, or the big one in the temple, is "daan" a fees, of gurus and their gyaan, or between religions – Hindu and Muslim is a tricky one to handle – given the matchstick-striker ratio that operates within the world's largest democracy. To the credit of Indian cinema and Bollywood, it has addressed these issues in a manner that has been 'acceptable' – here acceptable means getting released with least (sort of) amount of disarray within makers of the film, audience and censors, here least is used in a rather liberal (sort-of) fashion – Mani Ratnam's Bombay (1995), Shyam Benegal's Mammo (1994), Aparna Sen's Mr and Mrs Iyer (2002) immediately come to mind but I am sure there are many more. PK offers a critique of religious dogmas, giving a bitter spoonful with ample gloss and sugar. To make such a film you need a decent amount of conviction in what you want to say and how you want to say it – any imbalance could spell disaster. PK manages the tight rope well with the message of a direct contact with the maker and no wrong numbers.
I don't view PK as a catalyst to change; I view it as the start of a conversation, quite in the manner that 3 Idiots and Taare Zameen Par required for us to at least glance at the education system that we have been put through. For change to come through it will take something far more intense, radical, and even bizarre, in the meantime, "Dil ko behelane ko Ghalib yeh khayal achcha hai." For all the movies you could have made Mr. Hirani – you made a good one.

Winter Sun and Yellow Things
Those who read this blog regularly know my fondness for Amstel Park. I have befriended each hidden corner, nook and cranny, secluded benches and ponds. I have read under its trees, played hide and seek between its bushes, ran through the maze, broken ice on its neglected fountains, eaten ice cream, bandaged scraped knees, criticized the name 'midget golf,' hugged the rabbits, patted the pigs, clucked with hens, balanced myself on the train tracks, exchanged intelligent conversations, random ramblings, drunken songs and dragged branches home.
To you Amstel Park: "Acquainted with the Night" – a poem by Robert Frost published in 1928 in his collection West-Running Brook
I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain — and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.
I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,
But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
A luminary clock against the sky
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.
The big yellow table with two chairs in Amstel Park look like something out of a Vincent van Gogh painting. They will be placed in Dam Square on May 4th and 5th. The table and chairs symbolize the Freedom Luncheon or Vrijheidsmaaltijd, which will be served to hundreds of tables in the city. The table was conceived by artist Arne Hendriks. Hendriks views the table as "an instrument of solidarity." The table is designed by Stichting Stadshout. The wood used is a 155 year old beech. It sticks out, the yolk yellow in the middle of murky green.

Exactly ten years ago this month I was preparing for my first ever piece of work in mobile, two years of work which would lead to the development of an innovative conservation service in 2003 – wildlive! – and the release of one of the earliest reports [PDF] on the application of mobile technology in conservation and development work in 2004. A lot has happened since then, not least an explosion in interest, buzz, excitement – and, yes, hype – and a sense that mobile can be the saviour of, well, everything. Back then you'd likely be able to fit everyone working in mobile-for-development (m4d) into a small cafe. Today you'd need at least a football stadium

Real-estate stocks in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and Australia should generate cash-flow-per-share growth of around 8% in 2011, Cohen & Steers analysts estimate. That compares with a 6% average rate in the U.S., and 3% in Europe.
But those projections pale next to expectations by some experts that China's commercial and residential real-estate stocks are positioned for an aggregate 15% increase in 2011. "It's certainly a very active building market, but there's plenty of demand," Crowe says. "The highest-priced properties in China are still selling at a fraction of the valuations we're seeing for prime properties in Manhattan and other major markets."
It's hard to argue that all of China's real estate is selling at bargain prices, though. Since the market bottomed in 2008, Cohen & Steers estimates that property markets in China and Hong Kong have roared back by 280%. Speculators control only about 5% of China's property market, says Crowe. And that concentration is in high-end, top-tier city housing.
But global-minded funds like GRI aren't abandoning domestic stocks. Its single biggest country is the U.S. "Borrowing costs can be significantly lower for blue-chip U.S. REITs, which is a real advantage in this type of lending environment," Crowe says.

The healthcare industry is desparate for all kinds of tech people - ultrasound, Xray techs, all tyoes of nursing positions. Lots of the training programs can be completed in under a year. My friend is an ultrasound tech and loves it. Her schedule is flexible and she makes about 50K a year.
Good luck!
Speaking of healthcare, what about a phlebotomist (person who draws blood for labs)? They usually have training courses ranging from a weekend to 2 weeks and pay starts around here at 15.00 an hour. Plus, since you'd work for a hospital or lab, you'd probably get good benefits too.

I'm curious, do you need an associates degree to get into a training program?
Ack, I feel like I should have done all of this years ago!!
I've worked in healthcare a long time and people are always saying that and there will be some issue with it but from what I've seen it's not going to bottom out...on the contrary. Healthcare is one of the areas where if English totally and completely fluent there can be fatal consequences.

Incidentally, don't kid yourself about English proficiency in the rest of the world. The call center industry in India has now had several years of accent training and the improvement is marked. English instruction is a major sideline in China. These people are hungry and they want the jobs.
You have obviously never had to call tech support for anything, its all outsourced to India and I can NEVER understand them. Its really annoying to spend an hour on hold only to get someone who's accent is so strong you can't understand 90% of what there saying.
Check out the community colleges in your area. They often have programs where you wind up with your cert for ultrasound and an AA degree. If you already have an AA or BA you can do the program in less time.
There are also private training centers that cost more ( a lot more!) but you finish more quickly. My friend took this route. It took her a year and cost
$19K (loans and grants). She did not have an AA. This was about 4 years ago, so I don't know if things have changed.

A guest room makeover for about $1,000
Interior design interns Jessica Claudio and Marlene Pereira had reason to be excited when asked to redo a guest room this summer. They also had cause for trepidation, because the makeover was in the Greenlawn home of mentor and employer Kelly Dall of Kelly Dall Interior Design. Dall wanted the room to be a calming retreat. Total: $1,055. -- Sylvia E. King-Cohen

I would love a blue shell that picks a random player. NO ONE IS SAFE
A new Mario Kart is coming to the 3DS (HYPE), and with that said, let's talk about everyones fav item, the Blue Shell. As much as I loved MK WII the blue shell was somewhat broken and I'm sure others agree with me, even Nintendo, if you watch the Super Mario Kart for VC commercial they even state "Before the blueshell was invented." So in the new game, how do you think the blue shell will be and how would YOU fix the blue shell? ( or make it even more broken ) Personally I would like the n64 version, gliding on the floor rather than flying straight to the leader.

Morano Gelato Chestnut Hill, the realness
You are all correct. The gelato was some of the best I've had state-side. We tried melon (a sorbet but incredible flavor and texture), cassata, pistachio, and hazelnut. All excellent. The texture was perfect.
They do pack "to-go" pints in fairly flimsy styrofoam containers (in the summer you'd want something more to drive them home I'd assume). Up to 3 flavors for $12.
We'll be back for sure.

what's the best way to store premade steamed bun dough
My first response would have been to make the buns and freeze them - but if you didn't want to do that …
I would have left it in a single mass in a bowl in the fridge. After a few days you should be able to give it a quick knead to refresh it and then bring to room temp, portion, and use.
I don't like storing dough on or between sheets of paper as I always have sticking problems - and it takes me forever to get all the paper off the dough.
I find that after a rest for a few days you need a little more kneading to "re-activate" some of those gluten strands, so I wouldn't have portioned it yet.
I know probably too late for you this time. But my 2 cents.
What did you do and how did it work out?

what's the best way to store premade steamed bun dough
I'm a little confused. Are you wanting to make the dough ahead of time - or are you making it and want to know what to do with the leftover dough?
How long are you wanting to store it? Just overnight or if it is leftover dough are you wanting to keep it for a few days?

Haven't tried that star market but have been to a few now. Will swing in.
Also hadn't heard of wagon wheel. Putting it on the list.
I just drove by Wilson's farm in Lexington by accident the other day. Didn't have time to stop in but planning on heading there soon. Heard good things and the farm is out back for many things. Win win.
What does anyone know about the Waltham fields farm (?) on Beaver at I think. Website makes it seem interesting and they do a CSA.

Savory Arancini and Sweets at Waltham's New Cafe Brelundi
So you all talked me into it, and I went today.
First - I'll be going again. The people were great and I enjoyed my lunch. The place was much nicer than their marketing would let you believe and I"m looking forward to their Watch Factory location (though it is further from me) since this location has very limited seating and today was gorgeous out - I would have liked to order to-go or eaten along the river (which I'm hoping the Watch Factory location will facilitate). (I would have had my lunch to-go today but I wanted to try the gelato after . . . )
I really did enjoy the tuna sandwich. It was moist without being greasy (no mayo mixed in, so often I find people just add a lot of oil), nice tasting tuna with olives and capers that brightened it all up, on a nice lightly toasted roll. I will be ordering that again.
I had to try the arancini. I had a wild mushroom arancini. It was perfectly fine, I wasn't upset with it at all and agree that the rice could have been cooked a little less. I think they were $4 for one.
I also tried the hazelnut gelato, which had a great hazelnut flavor but was a little sweet for my tastes. I know gelato is "supposed" to be served above frozen but this could have been a little firmer (especially given the temp outside). I'll have to try a few other flavors to see if they all seem sweet to me.
Glad I went, thanks for the review.
PS - No Iris in the case, so assumed they were out - and I wanted gelato - so next time . . .

Anyone know anything about "Waltham Fresh and Prime"?
I came across it in a web search, just did a drive by and the store front is still there though the grates were down (they were supposed to be open apparently but guess not). The online reviews are polarizing it seems, but most talk about their cooked/take-out food.
Anyone ever been?
Return to Cha Yen Thai Cookery
Just adding to the chatter . . .
I went for my first time today. Had the corn cakes and the sukhothai. Both were great. I'll be back.
Those corn cakes/fritters are not at all what i was expecting (in case anyone is a first timer as well). I was expecting some sort of polenta - corn fritter - type thing. No. These are whole kernel corn fried in just enough batter to hold them together . . .they were really good and I'll be trying to recreate them at home for sure.
The place is also very small. Must be mostly a take-out place. They have essentially 2 tables (a 2-top and a 4-top) and three stools at a window counter. Given that, I was surprised that they essentially do "table service" instead of ordering at the counter.
Thoroughly enjoyed.
Savory Arancini and Sweets at Waltham's New Cafe Brelundi
Thanks for the post. I saw them advertising with a flyer in a local hotel and kind of dismissed them. I'll have to check it out.
It looks like they are opening a second location in Waltham in the Watch Factory, just a few blocks away from their current location. Hmmm, I saw construction on a space in the Factory and figured it was offices, maybe it is their new location, which could be nice if it is where I'm thinking because it would be on the river essentially.

a sauce for what?
honestly I've never had this item but I have had a walnut sauce over pasta in Italy several times and it is great. Depending on how thick this is, you may just be able to toss it with pasta (maybe a little pasta water just to loosen it).

What's the best way to label containers for the freezer?
Go to Home Depot/Lowe's/Local hardware store etc - get electrical tape. It now comes in multiple colors (I use different colors for different things - e.g. yellow for chicken, orange for beef, etc).
It sticks really well to everything - plastic included, doesn't fall off in the freezer even with a lot of moving around, and comes off easily with no residue left on the container.
IT IS THE BEST (imho of course).

Real Sugar Dr Pepper hiding in plain sight at my grocery store
For a while they were selling it in cans/12 pack. This was a few years back I think - they were making a lot of "throw back" sodas for a while, all of which were made with real sugar. The graphics were a little different. I preferred it for sure and then it disappeared :(

what happens after a few hours? Not sure why you feel that way . . .
I'm not sure I agree with hotoynoodle - you can hold pate a choux at least for a day, probably two (have only held a day myself and more often than not pipe, bake and freeze). The issue is the raw eggs more than anything else. IMHO
Edit: just a link to someone else that agrees it can be held
"The pâte a choux can be cooked immediately at this point or refrigerated for up to a day until ready to use."
Morano Gelato Chestnut Hill, the realness
Anyone know if they pack "to go" containers?
Thanks again. I went today. I would never have known they were there if you hadn't mentioned it. (First I'd have to go on a Thursday and then I have parked on the opposite side of the building so would never have seen their tent).
I bought some halibut ($24/lb I think) but looked good (haven't cooked it yet). Not thrilled it is all pre-portioned and wrapped in plastic but I get it given the mobile constraints.
They will also do special orders if you call ahead and have it there for you on Thursday.
And to whoever posted on another thread about paying attention to what they have on the shelves under the produce - great tip as well. I could have shopped the whole store and never noticed there was stuff down there.

If you love it and when the time is right, buy more. If you just think it is okay, buy a slightly less expensive pan next time - but I doubt you'll "regret" having this one in your arsenal of pans!
my saltines were stored in a closet where laundry was stored but sealed now smells like soap, is that dangerous?
I've had saltines that were stored for a while (no soap or laundry) that when opened smelled . . . bad, but I could see how you might describe it as soap too.
Throw them out.

Morano Gelato Chestnut Hill, the realness
Ugh, I was just there yesterday - are they in the Mall there? Need to run to the Container Store this weekend anyway . . .
Thinning the herd. Getting my cookbooks down to a reasonable number
I hate these posts. I have well over 300 cookbooks and definitely need to purge but these posts just call out more cookbooks that I feel I want to get . . .
So when everyone purges, what do you do with the books? I recently moved and took many regular books into a Half Priced Books store and they bought them for about 20 cents a book (hardcovers, big names, but several years old now). I'm not upset at them for the price, I get the business model, but hardly worth carting them in - so I just donated the rest of my fiction to charities. But with my cookbooks, I'd rather keep them than just get rid of them . . . . are there better options? I'd be willing to try to get rid of some . . . maybe . . . .

I have recommended your website to many people and will continue to use you every Christmas. Thank you, Jo S."
10/10/2014 - "This is my 9th year ordering from OrnamentShop.com. I just wanted to thank you for continuing to add new angels and new snowmen each year. Since I always order angels for the girls and snowmen for the boys, by choosing items marked "new," I don't have to worry about duplicates from one year to the next. We've added 2 more girls to the family since last Christmas - our first grandchild in June and a great niece just 10 days ago. I can always count on quality ornaments and great customer service from your site. Thanks again! Sandi R."

I started purchasing an ornament for my granddaughter's first Christmas and have continued each year for her and also for my second granddaughter. Both of them will be big sisters this year so I got them each of them an ornament. I only know the name and sex of one of my new grand-babies, so I will be ordering more once they both get here.Lyndal S."
5/21/2015 - "I needed just the right things for two granddaughters graduating this month, one from high school and one from college. I always buy holiday ornaments to remember an annual highlight or event and this certainly was a big one for each . I found just the right one for each personality. Ornament Shop has a wonderful variety and I shop here often.Barbara B."

Is time running out for Vergne?
For the second consecutive season, Jean-Eric Vergne was consistently beaten by his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo. Now, the Aussie has been promoted to a seat at Red Bull, while the Frenchman is left clinging on to his Toro Rosso drive for a third year. Plenty was expected of Vergne when he debuted in F1 back in 2012, partnering Ricciardo at the Italian team. He had powered to the British F3 title in 2010 and backed that up with a successful first full campaign in Formula Renault 3.5, finishing as the championship runner-up in 2011. It was an all-new line-up for the former Minardi outfit after they dropped Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari, despite both showing improved form during the...

Clayton Christensen voted most influential management guru
Laura Seitz, Deseret News
Clayton Christensen won the 2011 Thinkers50 Innovation Award and was ranked No. 1 of the top 50 "most influential management gurus" in a list released on Tuesday.
The Thinkers50 ranking is published every two years. The judging is based on voting on the Thinkers50 website and a team of advisers that use a set of criteria like originality of ideas, business sense and international outlook.
Christensen, a Salt Lake-born Harvard Business School professor of business administration, is the bestselling author of "The Innovator's Dilemma". He has talked about a variety of topics, including education, healthcare and business.
The award-winning thinker founded Innosight, a consulting firm that helps companies grow through Christensen's theories of disruptive innovation, a term coined in 1995. He also founded the Innosight Institute, a non-profit that works to solve societal problems like healthcare and education.
In Christensen's recent book "The Innovative University," he and Henry J. Eyring, both BYU grads, use Harvard and BYU-Idaho as examples of schools that are raising quality, lowering cost and serving more students.
"Students will no longer have to accept mediocre teachers," Christensen said in an interview with the Deseret News.

Kansas Jayhawks 2013-14 Non-Conference Schedule is Tough
Most power-programs prefer to have their non-conference schedule lined up with a slew of delicious cupcakes. Usually, that has some to do with their already brutal in-conference schedule and the building of team chemistry that comes with playing the Club State Pool Cleaners of the world.
For the Kansas Jayhawks, however, their 2013-14 non-conference schedule turns out to be absent of said cupcakes and instead features possibly the toughest group of games in the Bill Self era.
Kansas is slated to play in the Battle 4 Atlantis. The event has a solid group of teams slated to play including the Iowa Hawkeyes, Xavier Muskateers, UTEP Miners, Villanova Wildcats, Tennessee Volunteers, Wake Forest Demon Deacons and USC Trojans.
That said, even the Battle 4 Atlantic is not the hardest part of Kansas' non-conference schedule. They are also going to play the Duke Blue Devils, Georgetown Hoyas, San Diego Aztecs and New Mexico Lobos.
Sure, there are some other games more familiar with the cupcake schedule everyone loves to have, but the Jayhawks have done more than build a strong non-conference slate — they have put together one that will be as difficult to navigate as their in-conference line up.
Notably absent to their non-conference schedule, however, is some possible in-state rivalries that could be built — namely, no Wichita State or Missouri Tigers on the schedule. Whether that was done because of too many games already scheduled or if Kansas is trying to snub little brother is unknown. To be fair though, some of the non-conference games are made way in advance — as in way before anyone cared about Wichita State.

Duke Head Coach Mike Krzyzewski is Voicing His Discomfort With Conference Realignment
Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski has voiced his opposing opinion to the recent trend of conference realignment. This has been brought about by the recent news that Maryland will be leaving the ACC to join the Big Ten.
Maryland is one of the 7 original members of the ACC, which was born in 1953. That is 59 years of tradition playing rival to its fellow Atlantic Coast teams. Krzyzewski referred to the traditions of college conferences as priceless.
"I hate the fact that we get rid of, in our own conference with Maryland leaving, 60 years of tradition based on a decision right now because you think you're going to make more money in a certain situation," Krzyzewski said.
He went on to say, "You give up what really makes college athletics, which is the traditions."
Coach K feels that the traditions of our conferences, and college basketball as a whole, are being overlooked for financial gains. It's like a shot to the gut when everything you know and love about the game, and your conference, is getting flipped upside down right in front of your eyes. There is nothing anyone can do about it; these changes are real and happening in more frequency. I sympathize with the helpless feeling of basketball purists who love this game such as the great coach Krzyzewski.
The ACC will reportedly add Pittsburgh and Syracuse in the summer of 2013, Louisville in 2014, and Notre Dame in 2015. Conferences will be undergoing major changes, and the inter-conference match-ups of former generations will cease to exist into the future.

November 17, 2014 - Extremely happy with this purchase. I feel better cleaning up after my pet knowing this bag is biodegradable and has a great scent too!
June 9, 2014 - they are strong, smell good....and are big so no worries...love them...
March 2, 2014 - I bought the red bags and they fit perfectly into my dispenser. I like that they are easy to remove at the perforation without tearing into the baggie. I've had that happen with other baggies and it's just a waste. They smell nice and are the right thickness too.
January 3, 2014 - great to carry with you when walking your pet - fits well into pet bag dispenser - scent is OK
January 1, 2014 - These bags are great. I like how strong they are, and that they are biodegradable. The only thing that puts them at a 4 star rating is the scent. Yuck. Unscented, please!

Inspiring photography. Each stair is lit from every angle, the stairs appear to be inside out, going up, and going down all at once. The color of the stairwell fades from a pigmented black to a soft blue. The photo's concept is simple, but the details make the image really striking.

Journal Register Co. puts its employees on needles and pinsComments Email Print
The New Haven (Conn.) Register, a Journal Register newspaper, reports that the sole bidder in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy auction of the Yardley, Pa.-based company "will decide which of the company's employees it wants to retain" as the sale moves forward.
"A letter has been sent to all of the company's employees explaining that when 21st CMH Acquisition Co. completes its acquisition of JRC, it will be up to the new owner which of JRC's existing employees it wants to hire," according to the Connecticut newspaper.
The sale is expected to close on or about April 17. 21st CMH Acquisition is a subsidiary of Alden Global Capital LLC, which is the owner of Journal Register. This Associated Press story puts the purchase price at around $120 million.
The New Haven Register quotes Jonathan Cooper, vice president of media relations and employee communication for Digital First Media, which jointly manages Journal Register and MediaNews Group, as saying, "The notices sent to all Journal Register Co. employees — from part-time staffers to managers to the executive team — are the next step in the company's ongoing sale process." Mr. Cooper said he "could not speak for the new owners regarding whether the company's employees would have to reapply for their jobs," according to the newspaper.
The process that JRC is going through "is quite common in bankruptcy proceedings," John Collard, chairman of Strategic Management Partners, an Annapolis, Md.-based business turnaround firm, tells The New Haven Register.
"When somebody buys a company out of bankruptcy, they are buying a specific list of assets, usually not 100 percent of what the existing business has," Mr. Collard tells the newspaper. "While they can purchase assets, it's not possible to purchase employees. So the acquiring company comes to employees and offers them the same terms they had with the old company or different terms."
He says it's likely that 21st CMH Acquisition Co. will not retain all of the Journal Register employees.
At the time, Journal Register CEO John Paton wrote on his blog that Journal Register exited its previous bankruptcy, in 2009, "with approximately $225 million in debt and with a legacy cost structure, which includes leases, defined benefit pensions and other liabilities that are now unsustainable and threaten the company's efforts for a successful digital transformation."
Journal Register has newspapers and websites in 10 states. Its two Cleveland-area newspapers have a total of about 200 employees.
This and thatThe appeal of apparel: A Cleveland clothing company is part of a new strategy for the struggling U.S. Postal Service.
The USPS on Tuesday announced plans to come out with a line of clothing and accessories, called "Rain Heat & Snow." It licensed its unofficial motto to Cleveland-based Wahconah Group Inc., which will design the line of accessories and apparel, according to CNNMoney.com.
The website reports that it's a victory for the cash-strapped Postal Service, which will get "a small percentage of sales," according to Isaac Crawford, CEO of the Wahconah Group. He tells CNNMoney.com that the agency won't have to pay a dime to produce the line; his company will finance it.
Rain Heat & Snow will release a line for men by spring 2014, which will be sold in premier department and specialty stores, according to the story. A line for women also is in the works.
"You're talking about an American legacy," Mr. Crawford says. "We're hoping it will be very successful."
No. 101 never felt so good: He doesn't really need more accolades, but chef Michael Symon's Lola restaurant in Cleveland has landed on a list of the country's 101 best restaurants compiled by The Daily Meal.
Lola grabbed the last slot available — No. 101. It's the only Ohio restaurant on the list, which is dominated by restaurants in California and New York.
The survey lists The French Laundry in Yountville, Calif., as the finest restaurant in the United States, followed by Gramercy Tavern and Le Bernardin in New York.
But it's not just a list of fancy places. No. 10 on the list is Shake Shack in New York.
Guess that's a no: CNBC.com reports that the head of U.S. tiremaker Titan launched "a vitriolic attack on French productivity" after the country's socialist government suggested he buy a tire factory in the north of France that Akron-based Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. plans to close.
"Do you think we are that stupid?" wrote Maurice Taylor, in a letter to French Industry Minister Arnaud Montebourg, obtained by French business newspaper Les Echos. (Goodyear reported in January that it will close the unprofitable plant, putting around 1,000 workers out of jobs.)
In his letter to Mr. Montebourg, Mr. Taylor "left no doubt as to why he did not want to buy the factory," according to CNBC.com.
"I have visited this factory several times," he wrote. "The French employees are highly paid, but they only work for three hours. They take one hour for breaks and lunch, talk for three hours, and work for three hours. I said this directly to the French unions. They replied: 'That is how it is in France.'"
