SAN ANTONIO (AP) Planners are recommending that a streetcar system be built in downtown San Antonio that would serve up to 1.4 million passengers a year.
VIA Metropolitan Transit is pushing a streetcar route nearly six miles long and costing an estimated $280 million. Officials told the San Antonio Express-News that it would require $8.5 million annually to operate and maintain.
VIA says it needs at least $70 million to build the electric-powered system in its entirety. But it likely will have to build in phases, constructing tracks along roadways as federal funds become available.
The VIA board of trustees is scheduled to vote on the plan Sept. 24. Officials say the project would be fully designed by fall 2015 and at least part of the system could be operational by late 2017.

At the age of 3, I was diagnosed with with a language disorder. When I was just learning to talk, my parents noticed there was a huge problem. They could not understand me and when spoken to I would answer them back with something completely off the wall and make up my own words. They thought maybe I was partially deaf, so they took me into see a physician only to learn it was much more complex than a hearing issue. Upon observation, my ability take in language was fine, but my output was at a level of an infant. The doctors conducted a CT Scan and found damage to the area of the brain anterior to the central fissure (Broca's area).
The doctors referred my parents to a speech pathologist who I saw on a weekly basis. Major progress was made. It was nowhere near perfect but enough to get make me a functional child. I was able to at least speak simple sentences and gain a broad understanding of words compared to my infant speech the year before. I was ready for the real world, but not so fast.
I was always quite different from my siblings. When I was a toddler, my mom would try her damnedest to get be to smile without any results. When the other kids were out playing I would sit in a box and fixate on a ball for hours. When I put my shoes on, it would take me no less than a half hour to carefully fold my socks as they were never perfect and I would obsess about it for the rest of the day that my sock were uneven. When asked questions, sometimes I had a problem with what was real or fake. Once my mom asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up and I replied "a firetruck". When she told me I couldn't be a firetruck I changed my reply to "a kitty cat". I truly believed I could just morph into whatever I wanted to be when I grew up. My poor mom, one daughter is overly imaginative and the other wants to be a pretty girl in a pink Cadillac. What was she to do with us?
I spent the first few years of school in special education. I remember my first day in kindergarten like it was yesterday. Actually, I remember just about everyday as a child since I was three years old. I could probably remember the jeans my speech pathologist was wearing and the plaid flannel she wore so often. My favorite part of the sessions is when she taught me how to skip. I was a hopping and skipping fool after that. So back to kindergarten – I was placed in a different school than my siblings as they did not offer special education programs in that district. I was placed in a class where the children all had some form of language disorder from autism to dyslexia to severe mental disabilities. I don't recall the class being fun. It was a place to more catch up to the normal functioning children. There goal was to place me in a normal classroom setting once I was fit to. We learned cursive, weren't allowed to use erasers and the teacher was very impatient with my lack of ability to differentiate pink from green and the issues I had generating a sentence on paper that was not backwards. At recess, the kindergarten class was confined to a small area. I really didn't have any friends at school, so I asked the teacher everyday if I could go to the big kid playground and she finally gave in and said yes. This way, I would not have to confront anyone and be alone. I would hang out on the monkey bars and just stare out into the clouds until I was called back to class.
After kindergarten, I remained in special education until 2nd grade. We had moved, so I was going to school with my siblings now, but had to take an entirely different bus to school than they did. I was placed on the short bus as they called it and my siblings got to ride in the regular bus. This school was quite different than the last school I attended. The mentally handicapped kids were thrown into the same general population as the other kids during recess. Kids can be super mean and we were picked on often for being different. One kid used to run up to me, punch me and call me a retard while his posse would sit around us and chant "retards take the short bus". This was the beginning of what was to come of school for me. The only thing that kept me captivated was the teacher I had. She was very kind and often taught us things about world geography and brought in things she collected from parts of the world. We even took a field trip to a grassy part of the school grounds so she could teach us how to use chopsticks and proper eating etiquette in Japan. She would let us draw on the chalkboard during breaks when I discovered I could draw a perfect duck and so that is all I talked about and drew ducks allover my school work for the rest of the year. Spite the kids making fun of me, I really enjoyed going to class.
During 2nd grade, I was placed in a regular classroom. This did not fair so well for me as I was now sitting with the kids that had been so cruel to me and they were even more aggressive now that they had more face time with me. At the time, I was able to construct sentences at a more normal level, but my social skills were none too great. I was super shy and being around people was a very intimidating experience. I was so scared to talk to the other kids that the words that spewed out of my mouth were so jumbled; they were not comprehensible and just put more fuel into them to torment me further. Going to class started to become torture for me and I started to develop anxiety right before entering the classroom. In my mind, I was not learning but being relentlessly harassed by my peers. I hated school so much at this point, it was making me physically ill. I had a bad headache just about every single day I was in school and stayed home sick a lot. I did not have the desire to learn anymore and I felt alone. I was so timid and ashamed for feeling the way I felt that I kept it inside and never told my parents how I felt. So I imagine in their mind, I was fine. I kept a lot of things in and it just made it worse.
The teasing and tormenting did not change when we moved and went to new schools. I was the new kid, the weird one, who didn't know how to dress and was so freaked out by human interaction and when I was compelled to speak, I would just make a complete ass out of myself. I was not performing well in school and was terrible at taking tests. I was failing miserably becoming quite defiant. I refused homework as I didn't understand the point in going to school all day and then going home where I felt the most secure doing something that reminded me of being in hell (class). I went from depressed and crying for many years to really angry. I started talking back at my aggressors. By the time I was in High School, I wanted to fight all the time and honestly obsessed about beating the living hell out of the kids who teased me. I teased other kids who were a little more weird than I was and threatened to kick their asses.
Then it hit me – Was I turning into a bully? Oh no, what have I become? I don't want to be like the other kids, it was torture for me and I must apologize immediately to these poor kids. So I did something brave and turned myself in to the principal for participating in making fun of a girl in class everyday. I told her I wanted to apologize to her publicly in class with her there and give a talk about bullying to the class. Her eyes lit up and she smiled and told me. "Out of all the years of being and teacher and then a principal, this has been the first time I had a student came to me with this. I think this will set a good example for the rest of the students." So, as I am walking into 5th period class, the principal and teacher were standing in front of the classroom. The principal explained to the students that Kristi has a very important message to make to a class and an apology. I stood up, went to the front of the class and gulp, spoke. I not only apologized to this poor girl, but something I said during my talk to the class about bullying turned the room temperature from cold to hot. After that, the girl was no longer teased and everyone was extremely friendly towards each other. I could not believe it took only one student to stop so many others from hating. What would be the affects on this if students made more speeches like this? Would I still have been put through the constant beating by an entire class from first grade and up? Well, most likely not, but it did make a huge impact in this case.
Even though the teasing had mostly stopped in High School I was still under-performing in school for other reasons. My parents sent me to secondary school and it was the nightmare all over again. The bullying had begun again and I was alone once again. I found myself not being able to sit in the quad during lunch and spent everyday eating lunch in a classroom. It got so bad to the point of violence. A group of students were plotting to destroy me at the trolley station after school. I mean physically cause damage to me or even possibly kill me. The school found out and informed my mom and that day I was taken out of school and placed on home-study to finish out my credits. The bullies were not reprimanded and no criminal charges were filed. I was the one who was punished by getting kicked out of school because the school didn't know how to deal with it.
As an adult now, I would never take back my childhood. I went through what I did and it made me a far better person. And I know you can't change people, but you can change their perspective of other people with a little guidance. We need to set a good example for the children in our lives and be less judgmental and more communicative on these tough matters.
– Kristi

2nd climber falls on Longs Peak in two days
Body of first climber still on mountain
ESTES PARK, Colo. - A technical climber who fell on the east face of Longs Peak Friday was rescued by rangers from Rocky Mountain National Park.
The 34-year-old climber fell about 50 feet while roped in and suffered numerous injuries, according to the Park Service.
A park ranger/park medic came up the North Chimney and reached the man at 11:30 a.m. Two additional rangers rappelled from Chasm View to the man.
Rangers performed a technical lower 500 feet down the North Chimney and connected with other resources. Park rangers were assisted by Rocky Mountain Rescue and Larimer County Search and Rescue.
The climber's fall delayed the recovery of the body of a climber who fell on Thursday in the same area.
Park rangers were working to recover the body of Paul Nahon, 20, of Springsfield, Mo., when they were pulled off to help rescue the injured climber. Nahon died Thursday and his body will remain on the mountain until rangers are able to retrieve it.

Friday would have been the day of the final decision from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Atomic Safety and Licensing Board concerning the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant unit 3 project; however, the decision was delayed to �on or before Aug. 31,� according to a NRC news release.
A decision whether to deny Calvert Cliffs a license for a third reactor was expected Friday from the three administrative judges on the board, based on three contentions — violation of federal limits on foreign ownership, insufficient consideration for renewable energy alternatives to nuclear energy and a third contention that can only be speculated — according to Michael Mariotte, executive director of Nuclear Information and Resource Service.
�We were expecting this a couple months ago,� Mariotte said Thursday during a panel discussion of the implications of a NRC license denial for CCNPP. �So this is later than expected.�
The delay is �due to the intertwined nature of the issues still pending before the Board and the size and complexity of the record from the evidentiary hearing,� a NRC ASLB news release states.
The expected ruling on the three contentions also will affect the pending nuclear reactor projects at Nine Mile Point 3 in New York and the South Texas Nuclear Project, according to NIRS.
Peter Bradford, adjunct professor of nuclear and public policy at Vermont Law School and former NRC commissioner, said during the panel discussion that �whatever the NRC licensing board decides with regard to the foreign ownership issue ... the proposed reactors at Calvert Cliffs and South Texas are not going to be built in the foreseeable future.�
He added that the projects were never economical because reactors �always cost too much compared to available alternatives.�
In the summer of 2007, Calvert Cliffs was the first to apply for a new nuclear reactor license in 30 years. Then in November 2008, the NIRS filed a contention with the NRC claiming Calvert Cliffs� corporate structure �ran afoul of the foreign ownership law,� said Mariotte, who added that the contention was still open when Unistar Nuclear Energy, the applicant for Calvert Cliffs, was bought out by Electricite de France in November 2010.
In April 2011, the NRC determined the French-owned Unistar company was ineligible to receive a construction license because of the 100-percent French ownership of Unistar.
Later that month, the NRC ASLB ordered a show cause order to Unistar asking why the board shouldn�t rule in favor of NIRS on the foreign ownership contention.
In July 2011, during an oral hearing of the show cause order, Unistar requested time to find a U.S. partner, but Unistar has yet to find one.
It is based on this that the NIRS believes the �handwriting has been on the wall for months for the foreign-controlled Calvert Cliffs 3 project,� according to a NIRS news release.
If the license is denied, it will be a rare decision, Mariotte stressed during the panel discussion.
�The expected NRC decision will be a blow to the nuclear industry generally, which is seeing viable new reactor orders fade away into the horizon,� Mariotte said.

School districts are reviewing guidelines to better define the use of social media in classrooms, as educators grapple with the benefits and drawbacks of online relationships.
This fall, educators dealt with a rash of scandals over the blurred boundaries of students and teachers on services like Twitter and Facebook. At the same time schools saw the many benefits of social interaction in schools, the subject became embroiled in debate, sparking a patchwork of legislative and judicial remedies.
Some schools instituted outright bans of social media contact between students and teachers. Schools in Statesboro, Ga., this fall banned electronic contact between educators and students after they learned Facebook and text messages fostered a relationship between an eighth-grade English teacher and her 14-year-old male pupil.
"It can start out innocent and get more and more in-depth quickly," said Lewis Holloway, superintendent of schools, to the New York Times. "Our students are vulnerable through new means, and we've got to find new ways to protect them."
The teacher in Statesboro was detained on charges of aggravated child molestation and statutory rape, and currently awaits trial.
The state of Missouri investigated the matter of social media, teachers and students, finding 87 Missouri teachers between 2001 and 2005 lost their licenses because of sexual misconduct. Some of those were fired because they were exchanging explicit online messages with students.

Schedule change for trash pick-up!
May 15th, 2011
Remember that little post card we all got in the mail? This is the week that we begin trash pick up in the Cove on TUESDAYS instead of Thursdays.
Also from Burrtec, they are asking that we do NOT place cactus or palm fronds in our GREEN bin, as they are too tough for the choppers to chop. Put these items (along with our dirt from plants, etc.) in the BROWN bin with the garbage.
Remember, you can schedule pick up of bulky items by calling their number, 760-340-2113 or going to www.burrtecdesert.com

I just phoned Burrtec and the lady said she couldn't say how many distinct pickup areas there are in the Cove. If you've lost your card, or forgotten, you'll need to call 340-2113. This Moderator apologizes for the confusion. Just be aware that this is the week of the change, so heads up!

I just moved here from Redondo Beach, CA. I never had a problem with trash collection. Apparently La Quinta Garbarge/Trash personnel are a bunch of p..y's/punks. First week I assume they accidentally forgot my trash. Second week I figured I had a trash/recycle/green problem. Third week I confirm you guys are are a bunch of punks.

PGA Tour To Allow Cell Phones ... Again ... For the Third Time?
The PGA Tour announced on Tuesday that cell phones will now be allowed at all PGA Tour events, which makes a difference to about 2 percent of the population that wasn't already bringing them in to golf tournaments without any trouble over the last year.
Honestly, this wasn't already legal? At the Waste Management, I saw more people on their phones than I did cheering for birdies (but, still, more passed out people than both of those first groups, combined). I actually had a guy approach me at the Waste Management who was, dare we say, crawling towards a free pass to the drunk tank, who asked me to use my phone for an emergency call, only to chat for five minutes with his lost girlfriend.
I saw people chatting while cops and security walked by, saying as much as they would have if you were sneezing in front of them.
So, yeah, cell phones are now okay at PGA Tour events, even though you already were bringing them in to begin with. Rejoice! Rejoice!
(Side note: If you have AT&T, just don't bother taking it to any PGA Tour event. You won't get service anyway, so you might as well try texting your friends through your car keys.)
5 comments:
The tour has been testing at various events over the last 12 months or so, so I'm not surprised that you saw phones out. It is nice that its "official" now though.

The Detroit Lions were 0-21 against the Redskins at Washington dating back to 1939. The Lions broke that record today, after a heartbreaking loss to the Cardinals on the road the week before. However, the Lions had the right focus in mind and several of the players mentioned that they had never heard of the streak until today. The Lions started off with a huge sack of Matthew Stafford, but the Lions made up for it with a huge play to Calvin Johnson, but the drive stalled as Staford threw two incomplete passes back to back to Brandon Pettigrew who has had trouble catching passes over the past few weeks. The first score of the game came on the Lion's next drive with DeAngelo Hall's pick six. The Lions came right back down the field with huge plays by Joique Bell. First on a short pass from Stafford that Bell took 37 yards to Washington territory followed by his 12 yard touchdown run. Bell filled in very well for the injured Reggie Bush finishing with 20 carries for 63 yards and one touchdown. The Lions finished the first quarter strong with another lengthy drive that led to another touchdown pass from Stafford to Fauria pushing the Lion's lead to 7. After Chris Houston picked off RG III, the Lions could not do much with the ball and punted it back to the Redskins. Alfred Morris broke through for a huge thirty yard run that tied up the game at 14 with 3:29 left in the half. The Lions, off of a huge reception by Burleson that translated to 41 yards and the Washington 28 yard line, the Lions got to the 14 yard line before a series of three straight incompletions from Stafford to Johnson that led to a field goal by Akers to give the Lions the lead before halftime.
After Sam Martin kicked the ball out of bounds, the Redskins took over at their forty and after a 29 yard gain by Pierre Garcon, the Redskins tied the game off of a Potter 43-yard field goal. The Lions and Redskins punted the ball back and forth until early in the fourth quarter when the Lions got another big play from Burleson for 47 yards. However, the Lions could not find the endzone once more as they settled for yet another field goal from akers to make their lead 20-17. After surviving what seemed like a jaw-dropping 57 yard connection from RG III to Aldrick Robinson for a touchdown which was overturned, the Redskins punted, allowing the Lions to march down the field yet again off of a nice 33 yard gain by Kris Durham. The Lions also had a key 4th and 1 conversion that kept the drive alive leading to a beautiful 11 yard touchdown from Stafford to Megatron to put the Lions up 27-20. The Lions held on for the final plays of the game as even Calvin Johnson came in to play defense on the final play of the game.
Joique Bell solidified his threat as a runningback in the absence of Reggie Bush
The Lions lost DE Jason Jones for the season with a ruptured patella tendon.
The Lions defense came through with key interceptions and fumble recoveries that saved the Lions from defeat.
A receiver not named Calvin Johnson had over a hundred yards receiving as Burleson had his best game of the season so far.
Perhaps it was because all of the penalties didn't come in bunches but were spaced out throughout the game, the Lions showed more discipline but still had 8 penalties for 71 yards while last week they had 8 penalties for 101 yards.
Cool Statistic: The Lions have dropped back 121 times to pass and the O-Line has only given up two sacks on Stafford throughout the season. The Lion's offensive line was a big concern heading into the offseason and with young guards Warford and Reiff, many were doubtful Stafford could stay upright, but the O-Line has played exceptionally well and hopefully will continue to do so throughout the season

Identity thieves break into gasoline pumps, install credit card skimmers, and use Bluetooth technology to remotely download stolen credit card data.
With older skimmers, which simply cover legitimate credit card readers, identity thieves would have to return to the pump and physically collect stolen data. Additionally, consumers cannot see the skimmers since they are embedded inside the pumps.
That's why new skimmers are extremely effective.
However, a sharp-eyed station owner in Plymouth recently spotted two skimmers and quickly alerted police. The find ultimately led to the arrest of Gohar Yesayan and her husband Sarkis Mkhsyan. Investigators say the couple stole credit card data from more than 450 people. Yesayan was convicted of identity theft this month. Mkhsyan is scheduled to go to trial in July.
Some service stations are now installing high security locks and security tape on gasoline pumps. If the tape has been compromised, do not swipe your card.
Consumers can also protect themselves by paying inside or using prepaid cars with small balances.

The Culture of Narcissism, by Christopher Lasch
Self & Society
The Culture of Narcissism: American Life in an Age of Diminishing Expectations.
by Christopher Lasch.
Norton. 268 pp. $11.95.
Who lost America? It wasn't the Left's fault, replies Christopher Lasch in his apocalyptic new book, The Culture of Narcissism. For more than fifty years, radical intellectuals in this country have done their best to discredit "the authoritarian family, repressive sexual morality, literary censorship, the work ethic, and other foundations of bourgeois order." But if those foundations are now collapsing, and Mr. Lasch is quite sure that they are, the bourgeoisie has no one but itself to blame. It is not the triumph of cultural radicalism, the author assures us, but a stunning transformation in the character of bourgeois individualism that is the key to the cultural crisis of our time. The severely repressed, morally rigid "economic man" of yesteryear—that fervent defender of time-hallowed customs and institutions whom J. P. Marquand gently satirized in The Late George Apley—has given way to an anxiety-ridden character out of Joan Didion's Play It As It Lays, who "acts out" his impulses in a desperate quest for a meaningful life. Instead of enforcing restrictions on personal freedom, as his puritanical ancestors did, the permissive American of today tries to get rid of them. The temple of bourgeois values is therefore being destroyed by the very class that built it. To the "psychological man" of contemporary America, immediate self-gratification is the only god worth serving.
According to Mr. Lasch, the shift toward "psychological man" originated in the gradual assumption of childrearing functions by surrogate authorities responsible to the state, to private industry, or to their own codes of professional ethics. "In the course of bringing culture to the masses, the advertising industry, the mass media, the health and welfare services, and other agencies of mass tuition took over many of the socializing functions of the home and brought the ones that remained under the direction of modern science and technology." These developments profoundly affected the patterns of familial intimacy, and the altered structure of parent-child relations eventually worked a change in the structure of American personality. "On the principle that pathology represents a heightened version of normality," Mr. Lasch argues that we can most clearly appreciate what has happened to us by reading through the growing literature on "pathological narcissism." In the symptom constellations and character disorders of certain kinds of mental patients we can see the image, as in a cracked glass, darkly, of an entire nation's narcissism. If our "way of life . . . is dying," it is not merely because of the objective contradictions of advanced capitalism—economic stagnation, the impending exhaustion of natural resources, and the like—but because we ourselves, as individuals, are sick.
Mr. Lasch brings to this bold argument a wide acquaintance with the very best authorities on narcissistic illnesses, from Freud to Melanie Klein to a host of more recent specialists, including Otto Kern-berg, Heinz Kohut, Warren Brodey, and Peter Giovacchini. That Mr. Lasch understands what he has read is apparent in the mini-essays he gives us in his book on such topics as "Narcissism, Schizophrenia, and the Family" and "Narcissism and the 'Absent Father.'" Popularizations in the best sense of the word, these lucid resumés of a difficult science remind us of what the magazine Psychology Today might have become had it not descended into sensationalism. Mr. Lasch's erudition also makes him a perceptive critic of other popularizers of psychiatric modes of thought, as well as a devastating commentator on such deplorable fads of the day as the "new consciousness movement," which in effect advises people not to make too large an investment in love and friendship, to avoid excessive dependence on others, and to live for the moment. In a passage which seems to me definitive, Mr. Lasch diagnoses this advice as simply a reinforcement of the emotional malaise which gave rise to the consciousness movement in the first place.
Yet at the same time that he has profitably gone to school to the psychiatrists, Mr. Lasch seems to have all but forgotten that he was formally trained as a historian. I am going to argue, he says, that changes in the patterns of domestic intimacy occurred over a period of several generations, but the argument he makes is far more a matter of assertion than demonstration. He does not take us into the lives of representative American families, or indeed into the life of any family, in the era prior to the appearance of surrogate authorities on childrearing, and prove to us by specific example that mothers and fathers used to have confidence in themselves as parents and that they communicated that self-confidence to their children. Nor does he take us into representative American homes one, two, and three generations later and show us how parent-child relations changed, as he claims they did, and how those changes enhanced the growth of narcissistic traits in their offspring. In lieu of family history, he gives us a series of random comments about social reformers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries who were professionally interested in children's welfare. But the reformers' claims to expertise do not come close to being a proof that American parents were progressively devaluing themselves, or that their children's personality structures were changing.
Having failed to produce solid evidence, Mr. Lasch is finally forced to turn to a quotation from the ineffable Geoffrey Gorer, whose book, The American People (1948), bears the same relation to the study of our national character as Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision does to astrophysical research. The American mother, declares Mr. Lasch, quoting Mr. Gorer, has come to depend so heavily on experts that she "can never have the easy, almost unconscious, self-assurance of the mother of more patterned societies, who is following ways she knows unquestioningly to be right." Like most of Mr. Gorer's airy assertions, the statement carries no ballast—which is why Mr. Lasch immediately calls on a supporting witness. According to this observer, the "immature, narcissistic" American mother "is so barren of spontaneous manifestation of maternal feelings" that she "studies vigilantly all the new methods of upbringing and reads treatises about physical and mental hygiene." She acts not on her own feelings or judgment, but on the "picture of what a good mother should be." Now, Mr. Lasch may not be a diligent historian, but he is not without cleverness, and he handles these remarks so as to make them appear to be another sweeping comment upon modern American mothers and thus a confirmation of Mr. Gorer's generalization. But in fact, the remarks are narrowly targeted. Drawn from a 1949 article in the American Journal of Orthopsychiatry, they refer only to the mothers of a small cluster of children whose psychological development had not been typically American, as the very title of the article indicates—"Adaptation of the Psychoanalytical Technique for the Treatment of Young Children with Atypical Development."
Mr. Lasch also fails to point out that the mothers in what Mr. Gorer calls "more patterned societies" did not raise their babies without plenty of advice from members of their extended families. Whether they lived in medieval Europe or in the islands of the South Pacific in Margaret Mead's time, these mothers did not go it alone. Much the same thing may be said of the mothers of early 19th-century America, as the biographical literature of the period makes clear. In a society largely made up of towns and villages, American mothers relied on the readily accesssible wisdom of relatives and neighbors, as well as of the family doctor.
Mothers who raised their children with the help of John B. Watson in the 1920's, or of Arnold Gesell in the 1930's, or of Benjamin Spock and T. Berry Brazelton in more recent decades, did so partly because urbanization had made traditional sources of know-how less available. Some of these mothers, we can be sure, were also haunted by a distrust of their own instincts, like the women described in the psychiatric journal article cited by Mr. Lasch, and their surrender to the dictates of the pediatric manuals may well have disabled them further. But how large a percentage of the total did they constitute? How many other mothers in the last sixty years have set just as high an evaluation on their maternal talents as their counterparts did a century ago? How many, indeed, have been so strengthened by their faith in the efficacy of modern medicine and the wisdom of pediatric science that their confidence in their childbearing ability has surpassed that of all previous generations of American mothers? Confronting and disposing of these questions are absolutely essential to the credibility of The Culture of Narcissism, but the author acts as if they did not even exist. With a dogmatism so insistent that it comes across as anguish, Mr. Lasch proclaims that the habit of relying on outside experts can only be interpreted as destructive of "parents' confidence in their ability to perform the most elementary functions of childrearing," and hence destructive of the capacity of their children "to form strong psychological identifications with their parents."
Sifting through the "wreckage" of American civilization in the 1970's, Mr. Lasch sees one sign of a new and better life. A growing distrust of experts and of governmental bureaucracies has led men and women "in small towns and crowded urban neighborhoods, even in suburbs," to initiate decentralized experiments in cooperation which possibly signify "the beginnings of a general political revolt." Most observers regard grass-roots disenchantment with big government as a conservative force in contemporary American politics, but Mr. Lasch prefers the ancient dream of the Left: deep down, "the people" of this nation really don't like capitalism, and eventually they will revolt against it.
The rest of Mr. Lasch's report on the current state of the Union consists entirely of denials that there is anything worthwhile going on. Thus he derides the idea that the rise of new religious cults and the swelling attendance at traditional churches augur another "Great Awakening" of piety. "The contemporary climate is therapeutic, not religious," he avers. "People today hunger not for personal salvation, . . . but for the feeling, the momentary illusion, of personal well-being, health, and psychic security." But as the thinness of his footnotes reveals, Mr. Lasch has not earned the right to speak in a tone of pontifical authority on these matters. His scornful dismissal of the spiritual content of religious revivalism in the 1970's is simply an impertinence—an impertinence, I might add, which does not even have the saving grace of humor. Unlike H. L. Mencken, Mr. Lasch is an anti-cleric who never makes us laugh.
The chapters in The Culture of Narcissism on the "new illiteracy" in our schools and on the "degradation" of American sports are full of troubling facts. Yet the facts are as familiar to us as the news magazines and pop-sociology books from which the author seems to have gleaned them. What one wants from Mr. Lasch is not another rehearsal of current events, but an explanation of them. Once again, however, he is content to let polemicism substitute for serious analysis. To say, for instance, that our schools have been shaped in the image of our narcissism is profitless when the charge that we are narcissistic has not been proved in the first place.
Throughout his book, Mr. Lasch expresses a vivid contempt for what he calls "the privileged classes." Thus in his discussion of American universities he observes that "Mass education, which began as a promising attempt to democratize the higher culture of the privileged classes, has ended by stupefying the privileged themselves." As an example, he cites a group of Ivy League undergraduates who had never heard of the Oedipus complex and did not know who Oedipus was. I, too, am appalled by those students. Yet The Culture of Narcissism contains other examples of the stupefaction of the privileged classes which bother me even more, namely, the sloppy mistakes of the middle-aged professor who wrote the book. He refers to T. S. Eliot's "The Waste Land" as The Wasteland and to Wagner's Bayreuth as Beyreuth. He garbles Vince Lombardi's famous remark about winning being the only thing and then describes it as "George Allen's dictum." General Douglas MacArthur is quoted as saying that "Upon the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds which, on other days, on other fields, will bear the seeds of victory," whereas MacArthur actually said, "Upon the fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds that, upon other fields on other days, will bear the fruits of victory." If these mistakes had been made by another professor and Mr. Lasch had had the wit to recognize them, our apocalyptic author would have seized on them as further evidence that America is in the death grip of bourgeois narcissism. To me, they stand for something else—the inability of Christopher Lasch and other writers on the Left to recognize their own contribution to the destruction of cultural standards.

Okay, so in my continuing quest to understand and get this program to work I've run across a new stumbling block. The Sophos AutoUpdate downloads all the updates successfully, but when going to install the first one, RMSNT, it fails. The Alc.log shows "Installation of product RMSNT failed"
Here's what the ALUpdate.log file shows:

What I've done:
I've assigned the Sophos AutoUpdate Service (ALsvr.exe) to login using a local administrator and verified that all permissions and security settings allow said local admin access to read and write to the harddrive. I've also cleared the cache just in case and had Sophos download all files again.
Is there anything else I should look for? I'm not sure what the instance of IProductSetup2 is or what it's trying to create. Any help in that area might help steer me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

We would need to see the msi log of RMS from \Windows\temp (providing Autoupdate is still running as system) to say for sure. There is also an associated clientmrinit log in the same directory that goes along with the install.
So I would suggest, opening the msi log, then search for:
"value 3" (minus the quotes)
If you find something, check a few lines above for a failure, hopefully this will put you in the right area.
Wed 13-Oct-2010 21:18
Hey Jak,
Thanks for the advice! The knowledge base article did the trick! Not sure why it was missing one of those files, but it did allow it to install the update. I'll have to watch it to make sure it doesn't continue, however. Thanks again!
Wed 13-Oct-2010 23:38
Glad it helped. Those 2 files should be copied to the client machine by setup.exe when it's run from the share as part of a managed install.
AutoUpdate then installs, pulls down all the other files and starts installing packages, the RMS install is first and expects to find those files waiting in the "program files\sophos\remote management system\" directory.

Because of time constraints, I let her go and got some really dynamic and spontaneous shots. My favorite is #50 -Mark Lit

The Turkish club confirmed they have spoken to Moyes but insist the Scot is not top of their managerial shortlist.
Moyes has been in Instanbul to meet club president Unal Aysal, but Galatasaray insists Joachim Low and Jurgen Klinsmann - national coaches of Germany and the USA respectively - are their top targets.
A Galatasary spokesman said: "The president has given a speech about it.
"He said that we just spoke with David Moyes and he said that he can come to Galatasaray but he is not one of the main targets for us.
"They just spoke to each other, exchanging ideas - that it is it. It is true the president talked with David Moyes.
"We are not in a rush, we are waiting for the end of the World Cup. The first two targets are Low or Klinsmann."
Galatasaray parted company with Italian coach Roberto Mancini a fortnight ago after they finished second in the Turkish Super Lig.
Former Manchester City boss Mancini had been in charge since October 2013 and won the Turkish Cup last season.
Moyes has been out of work since being sacked by United in April after just 10 months in charge at Old Trafford.
The former Everton boss, who has been linked with a number of vacancies since his departure, has refused to rule out taking a top appointment abroad.

Benford's Law and an Analysis in Istanbul Stock Exchange (BIST)
Benford's Law, which has a logaritmic base, is a simple but an effective analytical examination tool forresearchers. It makes researchers determine abnormalities in numerical data clusters. Benford's Law as anumerical analytic test is a mathematical comparison which proves unnatural deviations in data analysis. Forthat reason, it has various application areas such as auditing and finance. Investors may use Benford's Law forfinding out financial frauds and abuses. This paper aims to test stock market indexes and stock values in IstanbulStock Exchange (BIST) whether they fellow Benford's Law of Anomalous Numbers or not. All indexes' closingvalues and stocks' closing values, stocks' monthly gains and losses were also examined. In this study, it wasfound that series of monthly gains and losses on the twenty-eight indexes reasonably agree with Benford's Law.

When the current school year closes in May 2013, so will the doors of Sherrodsville elementary.
The Conotton Valley Union Local Board of Education voted 5-0 Monday evening to close the 95-year-old school after hearing from about 15 community members and parents and meeting in executive session for nearly one and one-half hours.
Superintendent Adam Pittis said he believes closing Sherrodsville School (now known as Conotton Valley Primary School) was the best option for the district to move forward for the next couple years.
"We were the only school district in Ohio with an enrollment of less than 1,000 students to operate three buildings this year," he said. "Our district has already made $2 million in cuts in the five year forecast and if we did nothing, we would have been over $400,000 in the red."
He said the cost of utilities, maintenance and in wages and benefits will help the district immensely. The average cost per year over the last three years for gas (propane) to heat the building is $16,000; electric is about $9,000; sewer (the building has its own water well), $4,000 and maintenance and upkeep, about $15,000.
"We know the true savings will be in wages and benefits," he said adding the district won't know until the March meeting which positions will be abolished or shifted around to calculate the total savings. He said contracts will be negotiated with both unions in the district this year and he expects them to make cuts, primarily in the area of healthcare. "We have to offset the projected deficit; we have no choice," he noted. "Both unions are aware of it."
The 126 students in preschool through fourth grade will be transferred to Bowerston Elementary, including 21 students enrolled in preschool. "We have to wait and see what the state does with funding for preschool programs under Governo'rs Kasich's new plan to know exactly what is going to happen with that program, but for now, we plan to move sixth grade and possibly fifth grade to the high school.
"If there is enough room at Bowerston, fifth grade students will remain there."
He said the move to close Sherrodsville is the first phase of the school board's multi-phase plan to move all Conotton Valley students into one campus.
"We understand we have older buildings and spending future permanent improvement funds on them wouldn't be wise," Pittis commented. "Our goal, which could become a reality as early as the 2014-15 school year is to close Bowerston and build an elementary building on the campus where the high school is located.
Pittis said the district doesn't plan to use the state's school facilities improvement program to reach its goal.
"We have a small permanent improvement levy in place and if we asked the voters for a small addition to it, we could build an eight to 10 classroom elementary school at the site," he said. "We also plan to pursue money in the governor's budget for innovate and new school projects, if the budget is approved.
Pittis feels the move to one campus would improve the educational experience of students.
"In my opinion, if everyone was at the same campus, it would shorten the travel time of teachers and they could use it to teach new programs to students," he said.
He also noted one advantage of being a small district and having students in one location is that teachers have the ability to give students individualized attention.
"If we have second grade students who are ready for third grade reading under the new Third Grade Reading Guarantee, we can move them up and give more attention to the students who need help," he said.
Conotton Valley has not received any new operating money since 1996. Voters approved a 7.3 mill levy at that time which has continued to be renewed. However, voters have turned down every new levy the district has put on the ballot.

Huntingdon man Richard Thorley is celebrating big postcode lottery win
Posted: March 06, 2014|
Lottery winner Richard Thorley has a lot to thank his postcode for after it netted him a £50,000 prize.
Richard, from Huntingdon, could not believe his luck when People's Postcode Lottery ambassador and rugby legend Scott Quinnell turned up on his doorstep and presented him with his cheque.
Now Richard, who plays the Postcode Lottery with two tickets, is trying to work out what to do with his winnings after his postcode PE29 1LX came up trumps.
He said: "I really wasn't expecting this - it's not sunk in."
Richard was working at home when Scott turned up at the house and handed over the money.
He said: "I've propped up my cheque against the wall so I can see it all the time.
"I can't describe the feeling I got when I saw the amount I had won. It was amazing."
Richard already has plans for some of his windfall, including sending some money to his mother.
He said: "My mum is travelling to her home country in Central America at the moment, so I will probably send her some cash to help her out.
"I would like to invest some too."
Richard has been a regular player of the People's Postcode Lottery since last November and has doubled his money by playing with two tickets.
He said: "I'm really glad I signed up with two tickets - although I wish I had played with more."
Since it started the People's Postcode Lottery has raised £36.9 million for charities and good causes across the country, involving 850 projects. It donates 45p from every £2 ticket to charity.
They include Riding for the Disabled, the Red Cross, National Trust and Wildlife Trusts.
The lottery is based on the ticket-holder's postcode and Richard won a double prize because he had two tickets.

LIBERTY, Mo. — Officials at Liberty Hospital confirmed Tuesday that they laid off 129 employees in an effort to cut $20 million.
The hospital said the lay-offs were a result of the Obama administration's Affordable Care Act that will reduce Medicare payments to hospitals when it officially takes effect in January 2014.
The hospital said the lay-offs were a proactive measure to keep the hospital fiscally responsible. It said patient care would not be affected.
But many employees disagree. Amy Stone worked at the hospital as a nurse for eight years but was among those dismissed on Tuesday.
"The patients are going to end up suffering for it. They are going to have less nurses that will be taking care of more patients and the patients are going to get less and less care," Stone said. "They're not going to get their baths like they should, they're not going to get their medicine on time."
Stone told FOX 4 that she feels betrayed because she thought she was a good employee and never expected it to end like this.
The hospital spokesperson said the hospital assigned seven task forces to find a way to reduce expenses by $20 million without jeopardizing patient care.
"You'll have one core team of nurses that's providing care to patients on a particular floor as opposed to a lot of rotating staff coming in and out during different shifts," explained Julie Simpson, the hospital's spokesperson.
Simpson says the the task forces recommended other cost-cutting measures, such as eliminating the hospital funded patient transportation program and closing the hospital's wound clinic.
"We are going to be much more efficient in how care is provided because of how much less we'll be paid in terms of Medicare and in terms of Medicaid," said Simpson.
Simpson says the Affordable Care Act was designed for Medicaid to cover people who are under-insured or not covered at all, but since the State of Missouri chose not to expand the program, Simpson said it will force hospitals to pick up the tab when uninsured or under-insured patients seek emergency care.
"It is our primary concern to provide the highest care to our patients and not to interrupt the quality of care through these changes. The measures we implement will focus on patient care, while allowing Liberty Hospital to remain fiscally responsible," said David Feess, President and CEO of Liberty Hospital.
Simpson said the 129 employee cuts were not done lightly and she says the cuts were across the board, including senior-level managers, nurses, and maintenance and nutritional employees.

i bought a head of green leaf lettuce to make sandwiches with but it has outlasted its sandwich cohorts by far. now i have most of a head of lettuce and no idea how to treat it nicely outside of a salad.
i was thinking of treating it a little like cabbage and sauteeing, but i'm not sure.
any suggestions, SE? (for the record, i'm a vegetarian). thanks!

Bristol City boss Steve Cotterill urges players to "win it for the fans"
Posted: May 01, 2014|
Bristol City boss Steve Cotterill is urging his players to sign off with a win for the fans.
The Robins complete their League One campaign with a fixture at Crawley on Saturday and their manager wants to reward those loyal supporters who have stood by his team during what has been a difficult season.
In an impressive show of strength, more than 700 City fans have already bought tickets for the Broadfield Stadium clash and Cotterill anticipates a travelling contingent of up to 1,000.
He said: "I'm looking forward to the last game and we'll be going there to win, that's for sure.
"I'm sure we will have a big support at Crawley for the last game. To have sold more than 700 tickets already is fantastic and I'm sure there will be even more than that on the day.
"The chances are there will be another two or three hundred on the day, because that is what has happened lately.
"Our support has been wonderful since I've been here and I've been really, really pleased with them.
"I expect people will spend a bit of money going away and make a weekend of it and I'd like to give them something to smile about."

Exporting TD-3 module sample to Addictive Drums / S.D.2 with Cubase

Exporting TD-3 module sample to Addictive Drums / S.D.2 with Cubase
It's my first post here so hello everyone!
I'm playing through Roland TD-3 module connected to my PC by CME midi interface (midi in & midi out). I'm using Cubase 5 with Addictive Drums and Superior Drummer 2.
Everything sounds very good but I cant find any matching hihat sound from AD or SD (as I want to record a cover) - the funny thing is that the most matching hihat sound that I'm looking for is in the sounds of Roland TD-3.
And there's my question: is this possible to 'export' the hihat sound from TD-3 module to AD/SD software? I mean: hihat sample from TD-3 and rest of the drums from AD/SD.
If yes - can you tell me how can I do it?
I'd be very thankful for any response!

The decision on Thursday by the NCAA Division I board of directors to grant more autonomy to the wealthiest conferences in college sports was the subject of intense and contentious deliberations for many months. But momentum had built for a big change.
Still, many university presidents and athletic directors simply could not endorse a plan that would allow the 65 schools in the Big 5 conferences — the Southeastern Conference, the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Pacific-12, the Big Ten and the Big 12 — to create a new tier atop the NCAA's structure in which they could set their own rules.
Their fear was that such an overhaul would not address the issues facing universities and college athletics. And allowing powerhouse universities, with their top-dollar coaches and shiny new facilities, to offer sweetened recruiting packages would only deepen the criticism that the NCAA had become overly professionalized.
"There are serious challenges confronting college athletics," said Tom Yeager, the commissioner of the Colonial Athletic Association. "This didn't solve, in our view, some of those root causes. It is kind of optics."
