I love ramparts - especially the tavern. Great local option. Consistently great food with good specials.

Good food - good service. Popular with neighborhood locals. Daily specials and great happy hours in the tavern. 1/2 priced wine on Saturday can't be beat!!
Posted by Johnny Mack on 10/02/2008
Ramparts is basically two restaurants in one: a supposedly upscale, and a neighborhood family-sports bar. Both sections are pretty. Let's define the two: 1) Supposedly upscale: mediocre food, really SNOOTY service, but a nice decore. Don't expect anything prompt. Clientele? Elderly matrons and insurance-used car salesmen. Value goes down because what they order is to impress clients. 2) The sports bar is considerably better and neighborhood friendly. Sit around for a burger and a beer, watch the game, and ignore anything else in the restaurant. Service is great, and if just a b&b, value is good.

a rip off

I was in the middle of tracking something extremely important and now I have no idea of the status of my progress due to this app keep shutting down and spontaneously deleting everything.

"Edith! Edith! I didn't find a Twinkie in my lunch bucket today!
What happened, Dingbat? Why do you torture me this way?"
"But Archie, ain't you seen on TV they ain't makin' 'em anymore?
The company is foldin' up and they ain't stockin' 'em at the store!"
"I blame you fer this disaster, Meathead, you and yer pinko friends!
The greedy union reached too far killin' jobs on which people depends!
Yer democrat gov'mint stimulated my tax dollars fer ever' thing in sight!
Instead of blowin' money on green inergy, I'd like some to solve my plight!"
"But, Daddy" - poking his gut - "fast food like Twinkies isn't good for you!"
"Let me tell you somethin', little girl! That may be yer lib'ral point of view!
My life ain't never gonna be the same agin without Twinkies fer a snack!
Them things is as American as yer mother's punkin' pie and I want 'em back!"
"I fought for the flag, baseball, Coca Cola and Twinkies in Dubya Dubya Two!
I slogged through the mud in Italy and was shot in a very fragile area too!
Now, I feel that it was all in vain to pertect all them things I hold dear!
No Twinkies for my lunch? Stifle yerselfs! I'm goin' to Kelsey's fer a beer!"

Freight Carrier
Considering it was filled with highly flammable hydrogen, in retrospect it was clearly a dangerous way to travel. Today dirigibles are niche to say the least, being used occasionally for advertising, surveillance and getting to remote places.
But that might be about to change as people start to rethink the potential for the airship as a sustainable, environmentally friendly method of transporting cargo. One advocate of the dirigible is cyclist hero Graeme Obree, who Humans Invent has followed over the last year as he attempts to break the human-powered land speed record.
Most of the cost of a mango is paying for the aviation fuel that gets it here
In a rare moment not talking about bikes, we learnt of Obree's fascination with airships. Today's ships mostly use non-flammable helium, removing a significant danger, and Obree believes they have the potential to cut carbon emissions dramatically.
Solar Ship
Interestingly, this year Canadian company Solar Ship announced they are building three fossil-free, solar hybrid airships that combine photovoltaic technology with helium, the largest of which will be able to carry 30 tonnes.
What do you think?
Do you agree with Obree, are airships the way forward? Watch our film of Obree's call to arms above. Leave your comments below and we will pass them on.

Scott Waters received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Victoria in 1997, and later went on to receive his Master of Fine Arts in 2004 from York University in Toronto. He has since taught art as an sessional faculty member at both York and the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD). Waters' recent and ongoing work draws on his period in the Canadian Army from 1989 to 1992. Serving as an infantryman in the Third Battalion of Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, Bravo "B" Company, he was stationed in Wainwright, Alberta, and Victoria, British Columbia. In the fall of 2006, Cumulus Press published his Hero Book, a hybrid work, including drawings, paintings and writing, about his experiences in the Canadian Army. In its centenary Issue No 100, Border Crossings published a feature-length article written by Robert Enright (as recounted to Enright by Waters) on Waters' ideas about his Army paintings: Scott Waters, "Enclosed Encounters of a Military Kind: Reflections on Life in the Canadian Infantry."
Waters' exhibition, Time Heals All Wounds (Negotiating a Lie, Pt. 2), takes place from March 6 to March 31, 2008 at Craig Scott Gallery.
Further information on Scott Waters will shortly be posted.

Iowa Western upends Navarro 3-1 to claim DI women's soccer championshipNovember 23, 2013
Release courtesy of Mark DeCotis, Eastern Fla. State Sports Information Director
The third time was indeed the charm for Iowa Western' women's soccer team.
Iowa Western took a 2-0 first half lead, conceded a second-half goal but then got the big score it needed to defeat Navarro (Texas) 3-1 on Saturday night to win the NJCAA Women's Division I Soccer Championship.The victory on Eastern Florida State College's Melbourne Campus followed 2006 and 2007 runner-up finishes for Iowa Western and gave the Reivers their first national title.
Iowa Western finished its season at 19-2-1 and capped a run that almost wasn't after the Reivers trailed Iowa Central for nearly all their district title game before pulling out a last-minute victory that advanced it to the national tournament.It was after that game Reivers head coach Brad Silvey realized he had a potential championship team.
"After we made it through pre-season I think we had a good inkling that we had a special group in front of us," Silvey said."The moment that it really came into fruition was our (district) final (against Iowa Central), down a goal with one minute, 13 seconds left in the contest and we come back and win the game 2-1 in regulation.
"That was the moment where we looked out and we were like as a coaching staff 'this is going to be the year.'"Iowa Western got the first goal courtesy of freshman Celia Jimenez who beat freshman goalkeeper Kenia Medina off a deflection. The goal went to the lower right corner just 8 minutes and 23 seconds into the game.
The assist went to sophomore Kasandra Anderson.Fifteen minutes and 5 seconds later – with 21:32 to play in the first half - freshman Brianne Richards struck home her own rebound off the post to beat Medina to the right side for a 2-0 lead.
Iowa Western had the better of play but Navarro took advantage of its deep bench by substituting regularly getting fresh legs into the game.It began to pay off as Navarro began to assert itself offensively, pressing into the Iowa Western end.
But Western Iowa used its bench as well and its backline continued to hold off Navarro.The half ended with Iowa Western leading 2-0.
But just 4 minutes and 25 seconds into the second half Navarro's leading scorer freshman Trudi Carter split two defenders to beat freshman Iowa Western goalkeeper Kelsey East to her right side and it was 2-1.Freshman Shanise Foster got the assist as Navarro pressed the action.
East preserved the lead with 34 minutes to go when she came out to cut off the angle on Foster with a diving foot save.Twelve minutes later – with 22:08 to play - Iowa Western freshman Nicole Gowans sent a rebound off a corner kick into the upper left-hand corner of the net for a 3-1 lead and the game.
"The third goal was huge," Silvey said. "Nicole Gowans striking it off that rebound on the corner kick was a game changer for us."For her part Gowans was matter of fact.
"I gave a corner and it came back out to me," she said. "I was debating whether to cross or shoot I looked right at the goal and I just put it away."It didn't seem real though when it happened. I don't think it's hit me yet honestly. I think by tonight it will finally set in and it will feel real."
It was real when the number three went up on the board rocketing the Reivers to the championship.Iowa Western opened the tournament by defeating No. 12 seed College of Lake County (Ill.) 5-0. It followed up with a 1-0 defeat of No. 8 seed Monroe College (N.Y.) and then beat Laramie County (Wyo.) 4-3 on penalty kicks after a 0-0 double overtime semifinals draw.
The appearance in the national tournament was Navarro's sixth in the last 10 years and its first since 2008. The Bulldogs finished the season 17-4-1.Navarro assistant coach Aric Bonner was gracious in defeat.
"Iowa Western played well," he said. "We just didn't bring it tonight. Better team won."

Video:How to Drip Brew Coffeewith Elisa Pupko
Using a coffee machine to make drip coffee is the most convenient way to brew a pot of coffee. Learn how to make coffee using a coffee machine in this how-to video from About.com.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Drip Brew Coffee
Hi, I'm Elisa Pupko for About.com. And here's how you make drip coffee at home using a coffee machine.
Pros of Using a Coffee Machine
The things you will need are a coffee machine, water, coffee beans or already ground coffee. If you have beans, you'll need a coffee grinder and a measuring spoon.
What's great about using a coffee machine is the convenience - you just put in some coffee grounds and some water and it instantly makes your coffee. A lot of machines even have settings that allow you to preset it so that your coffee brews when you wake up in the morning. However, the coffee made in a coffee machine isn't always the strongest of flavor - some people complain that it's a little watered down and that you get stronger flavor from are press or french press coffee.
How to Brew Drip Coffee
I'm gonna first start by grinding my coffee beans. So, I'm going to fill my grinder and grind it until the coffee is fine. To grind your coffee to fine takes about ten seconds and you want the coffee to have a smooth feeling to the touch and be a little finer than sugar or table salt. You want one heaping tablespoon of coffee per cup you want to brew. So I'm gonna do two tablespoons to make two cups of coffee. Now I'm gonna fill the carafe with water. You want one cup of water per cup of coffee you want to brew, so I'm gonna put in two cups of water.
And then once you've set your desired settings on your coffee maker, you can hit start and brew your coffee.
So with drip coffee, what happens is the water seeps through the coffee, absorbing its oils and flavors. And then it passes through the filter, leaving the coffee grounds in the filter and leaving the coffee below to drip in to the carafe.
Once the coffee is done brewing, it's important to turn off the coffee maker and remove the coffee from the heat source. I recommend transferring to an insulated carafe for serving. Doing that will insure that your coffee is fresh and flavorful and isn't burnt tasting from sitting on the heat source.
And that's how you make drip coffee at home using a coffee maker. For more information, please visit About.com. Enjoy!

The food is really good and the service is good too. At these prices you are getting an incredible value!
Posted by Jeff C. on 08/11/2008
The best Chinese food I have had in the city. It is amazing, the fried rice is fantastic, the chicken is great, the prices are cheap and it is fast. I would recommend this to anyone, no need for a lengthy explanation. It is a small, simple plain restaurant, you walk in, order, and within a couple minuets you are eating amazing Chinese food.
Posted by Anonymous on 07/31/2008
The food is good, but the service is miserable. they have no respect and if it weren't so conveinant i would never go here. i never eat there because I don't want to give them the pleasure of a tip. the woman on the phone is so grouchy, I can't stand talking to her. anyway. food is good, service is not. it's basically a lose/win situation.
Posted by anonymous on 03/03/2008
This is not your standard Americanized Chinese food...so judging this restaurant alongside other cookie cutter restaurants that offer General Tso's Chicken lunch special isn't quite fair. The noodle soup choices are great and a fantastic value. Choose among different noodles and toppings (including meat or veggie dumplings), with or without a soup. Great for a light lunch or midday snack. Locations on the East or West side equally consistently satisfying. Their roast pork chow fun without soup is highly recommended. Pass the hot sauce!
Posted by Youppi on 02/25/2008
Love the food. Not so hot on the prices. But, I'd rather pay too much for good food than too much for bad food.
Posted by A reviewer on 02/22/2008
Some other reviews have stated that the service is rude. I don't know what planet these people usually eat Chinese food on, but here in NY surly service in Chinese restaurants is the rule, not the exception! That said, the food is good and it is cheap. That's about as much as you can expect in Chinese dining in NYC.
Posted by Matt on 08/21/2007
I've been ordering and eating from this and one other Mee location for over three years. The food is good generic "cheap chinese" and they are incredibly fast. The vegetable sides are weak but Gen'l Tso, Pork with Garlic Sauce, and other lunch specials do the trick. The service has always been poor and lately they've been flat-out jerks. The woman on the phone will hang up on you, scream in your ear, and generally act like you are wasting her time. If my co-workers didn't like how cheap this place is, I'd never go again out of principle.

There is no chance in our lifetime that federal regulators will look at the PR industry.
The biggest change in the market is the diminished power of the MSM and the rise of the partisan media.
Arthur Page Society president Roger Bolton:
It's important for PR industry to adopt a set of values, i.e., who we are, what we stand for.
Also while at the PRWeek confab, I had a chance to grab some sound from a few of the presenters. Here's an audio clip of what Joe Lockhart had to say about his time at Facebook and the state of the media today. Listen here (RT: 4:12)
I also chatted with Jolie Hunt, AOL's new CMO and chief communications officer who honed her craft at the FT and them under IBM's Jon Iwata. Jolie's had two life changes in recent months: she's newly married and she's new to AOL. I asked her about the challenges in breaking the (mis)perceptions about AOL (dial-up, anyone?) and redefining the company around the quality content it offers today (i.e., TechCrunch, HuffPost, Patch…). Listen here. (RT 3:11)
And then who can forget the show the Republicans put on at their National Convention this year? Think empty chair! I was able to grab some time with James Davis, director of PR for the Republican National Convention. Fascinating how he got his first break. Listen here. (RT: 5:55)
Finally, at the very end of the evening, my pal Stacy Martinet facilitated a chat (and photo) with her boss, Pete Cashmore, founder and CEO of Mashable. Stacy's also newly married and I had a chance to also talk to her hubby Drake Martinet, formerly of AllThings D who now toils at Lerer Ventures' (and BedRocket's) hot new video news-driven portfolio company NowThis News, which is in partnership with BuzzFeed.
I talked with Pete Cashmore about Mashable's new hyper-socialized site, launched into beta that very evening. He also talked about the virtues (to brand marketers) of the site's revenue-generating model he calls "native advertising," which sounds a lot like the paid-owned "hybrid" mashup I posted on last week.
While Pete says this approach, which uses editorial staffers to create original (paid) content, has been around at Mashable "for four years," Digiday's Jack Marshall posted a piece in which he asked execs from Tumblr, BuzzFeed, The Economist and elsewhere for a fresh take on the term.
Here's our conversation. (RT: 5:58)
All in all, I'd say PRWeek put on a rather good show this year.

Sardinia is one of the three major islands of the Mediterranean, a rare mix of modernity and ancient, progress and tradition. Visiting this region will be an incredible experience, not only from a natural point of view, but also from a cultural one. The landscape is shaped by hills and mountains among which there are wide plains (Sa Giara) where you can still spot wild horses. The coast is known to have the most beautiful white sandy beaches along rocky coves with crystal waters. The climate is very mild, with a short winter and a long summer. The history of Sardinia is complex and intriguing and touchable... all over the island there are archeological sites and every village and town has a busy schedule of traditional celebrations year round.
Pula is a delightful little village in which you can find everything you need to spend your ideal vacation. Within walking distance from the apartment you can visit the archeological site, Nora... with a wonderful amphitheater overlooking the sea; during the summer season it hosts theater performances and concerts. Nearby, you can visit the local aquarium, famous for being a rescue point for sea turtles. A short car ride can bring you to Chia, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Mediterranean, or to one of many agritourisms where it is possible to taste our traditional cuisine surrounded by our wild and unspoiled nature. Hiking, horse riding, kite and wind surfing. For golfers, Is Molas is a well known 27 hole golf course and Chia hosts a nice 18 hole Pitch and Putt. Spelunking can offer a fresh alternative to a hot day with a visit to Is Zuddas, an interesting cave complex. The scenic coastal road heading west will take you to Teulada and further to ferries leaving for the quaint islands of San Pietro and Sant'Antioco. Inebriated by the perfume of the Mediterranean Scrub, lulled by the gentle waves of our crystalline sea... a memory for life!

Hope members of the Birmingham News Editorial Board are the first ones to receive pink slips.
Did Board member Phyllis Wyne have it right when she, along with April Williams, voted with 3 others to hire Fred Bolling in defiance Dr. Richardson? Or did Ford and Volker do the right thing and vote against hiring another lawyer? Guess your readers will never know since you only report facts that fit your agenda.
tcarl - below average does not equate to "failing" as defined under the law.
tcarl - you do know that statutes are subject to court interpretation don't you?
wrong tcarl - anytime a course of action can be reasonably justified by law, the party relying on that law will not hesitate to assert it. To believe otherwise is simply nieve, but feel free to keep telling yourself otherwise if it makes you feel better.
wrong again tcarl - just because you think the "System has failed the students" does not mean that the system is "failing" as that term is defined by law. It's my understanding that a determination of whether a system is deemed to be failing is based on certain factors (mainly test scores I believe). My sources tell me that the system does not have a problem in that regard.
CaresaboutTCS - I disagree. A government entity must abide by the law, even when its targeting another governmental body. There are only specific instances where the state can take over a school system and Birmingham does not meet the criteria. Bice's refusal to provide a legal basis for its actions is further evidence that the state BOE knows it's overstepping its authority.
Hey Joey, why didn't you include the names of those who did and didn't vote in favor of hiring Bolling? Could it be because two of them are members you've consistently criticized? How about telling the masses that two members of your "favorite four" voted to hire Bolling in defiance of the state. Even better, why don't you opine as to why two of your favorites might not want an investigation into the system? Is there something they'd rather the state not know? Surely you must find it odd that one of them went to the state board meeting begging for intervention and then chose to challenge the state's authority once the an investigation was launched. Come on Joey, inquiring minds want to know.
Even though it's buried near the bottom of the editorial, at least you finally acknowledged that two members of the board whom you relentlessly attacked over the past two years voted against hiring Mr. Bolling. Perhaps if you took your blinders off long enough, you'd realize which members are actually interested in the system's children and not in lining their own pockets.
caresaboutTCS - the law does not say that the state may step in when "several members of the board" request intervention. And justifying intervention based on the belief that the state might find illegalities is like saying its okay for the police to unlawfully barge into your house without a warrant so long as they find something illegal in your house. The last time I checked, such action was unconstitutional.
tcarl - the system is not "failing" as that term is defined under the law. That's why there was no reference to any statute or regulation in the state's letter informing the board that it was being investigated.
mathtchr8 - taking away the power of a duly elected board without any legal justification most certainly disenfranchises voters. Alabama law only permits a state take over of a system in very limited circumstances. That is why the state has not taken over the system and instead is trying to circumvent the law by undertaking an "investigation". And in case you haven't noticed, the board and the overwhelming majority of Birmingham voters are black.
"'In a period of declining enrollment and significant financial challenges, the justification for retaining two private law firms (in addition to salaried general counsel) has been the subject of sustained, uniformly negative media coverage and public controversy," Bice's letter states."
It could be argued in some quarters that the civil rights movement was "the subject of sustained, uniformly negative media coverage and public controversy" but those who believed they had certain rights didn't let the opinions of others deter them.
Unless Dr. Bice is interested in being investigated by the Department of Justice for disenfranchising black voters, he may want to fully consider the implications of usurping the power of a duly elected board in the City of Birmingham.
bamagrad1998 - if Marie's editors would let her actually report the facts, you'd know that the 2 members of the so-called "toxic 5" (Volker and Ford) joined with Giattina in opposing the hiring of Fred Bolling. Of course, the editors at The Birmingham News can't find it in themselves to be objective. Where are all the editorials blasting April Williams and Phyllis Wyne for their role in going against the State Board of Education? There aren't any and you likely won't see any. The News plays the southside and over the mountain crowd like puppets by consistently feeding them incomplete, inaccurate and patently biased information.
A closed-door meeting to discuss "accusations regarding possible violations of the...Alabama Open Meetings Act". Priceless!
Too bad the Birmingham City Council won't follow suit and award those scholarships they promised to fund when they passed the one-cent sales tax increase. It's also too bad that no Birmingham news outlet has inquired into what the Council has been doing with that money since they started collecting it in 2008. If the Council won't spend it on the things they promised, then they ought to repeal the tax.
An evening with the American Taliban. The pre-party will include aspirin giveaways and contraception burning.
Leaky roofs, no textbooks, a principal allegedly trying to force a teacher to change grades, a superintendent who is unresponsive to requests from board members, a majority of the board willing to fire the superintendent but instead opting to toy with him. None of those are things that can be solved by so-called "conflict resolution training." Only a truce (in whatever form that may be) between the 3, 4 or 5 warring factions can end the stalemate. Perhaps those in a position to make that happen will step up for the good of the children.
Conflict resolution training will do nothing to address the mistrust between board members and the contempt Craig "Uncle Tom" Witherspoon has shown to the board. Why doesn't the editorial board dig beneath the surface to find out what's really going? Ask board members how Phyllis Wyne was able to garner enough support to be elected president. You might just find out that she promised to fire Witherspoon in return for votes. Look close enough and you might find an even juicier story about why she failed to follow through on that promise.
The editorial board's praise for Witherspoon "slashing legal expenses" is laughable. If they (the editorial board) did the slightest bit of investigating, they'd discover that the purported reduction in legal expenses is due in large part to Witherspoon not bringing disciplinary action against employees accused of violating system policies. By allowing alleged wrongdoers to slide by without fear of punishment, Witherspoon is avoiding the legal expense associated with employee disciplinary hearings. All a good newspaper writer would have to do is make a public records request for the number of disciplinary actions that have been brought under Witherspoon compared to the number that occurred under Barbara Allen or other prior superintendents. And before anyone tries saying employees are performing better under Witherspoon, I suggest you first ask the superintendent why he has yet to discipline a certain employee who is known to have had relations with a student. That is but one example of his failure to lead.
There is so much going on within the system that the editorial board is intentionally choosing to ignore. Sort of reminds me of the old saying "it's easy for a blind man to love an ugly woman."
It's time for the News to put its money where its editors' mouths are and help pay for all the things it wants to see in the Birmingham schools. I'll have a member of the legislative delegation call you to discuss the details of a local tax on subscription based printed publications that are distributed daily. I know you'll enthusiastically support the idea and will fill the editorial pages with numerous columns about how the legislature should pass such a tax.
Not surprisingly the editorial board's wish list failed to include having a superintendent who will actually communicate with the board that hired him. For months members have been asking Witherspoon for information they need to make decisions on issues related to personnel and curriculum, but he consistently ignores their requests. Guess he's got more important things to do like applying for other jobs and having cocktails with members of the education foundation.
I heard there was going to be a planned protest march on Witherspoon's house but that it was called off once the participants learned he lives in a gated community on top of the mountain. How ironic that he has chosen to demolish a monument to those who fought and bled to give him the right to live in such a place.

Scarcity, Why Having Too Little Means So Much
A surprising examination of how scarcity - and our flawed responses to it - shapes our lives, our society, and our culture. Cutting-edge research from behavioral science and economics shows that scarcity generates a similar psychological reaction for everyone struggling to manage with less than they need. The dynamics of scarcity reveal why dieters find it hard to resist temptation, why students mismanage their time and why sugarcane farmers are smarter after the harvest than before. Once we start thinking in terms of scarcity and the strategies it imposes, the problems of modern life come into sharper focus. Scarcity provides a new way of understanding why the poor stay poor and reveals not only how scarcity leads us astray, but also how individuals and organizations can better manage scarcity for greater satisfaction and success.

Session: Harnessing Know-How
We have shown that what an economy produces determines its wealth. And what it produces depends on what it knows how to make. Knowledge needs to be accumulated, aggregated and integrated among individuals, firms, locations and societies in order to transform it into products, and consequently generate economic growth. Knowledge exists within all these levels: individuals translate their skills into tasks, firms translate the skills of its employees into products, and cities combine these products into value chains that generate wealth. But knowledge operates in a tacit way, making it difficult to understand and replicate. In this session we will explore how knowledge operates and how we can harness this amorphous power to help societies prosper.Presented & Moderated by:

Session: Dangerous Ideas and the Seduction of the Kinky: Does "a Dollar a Day" Really Define Development
The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) outline a distorted vision of "development," targeting low bar goals for a few indicators: the poverty agenda is defined by a "dollar a day," the education agenda by primary school completion, the health agenda by a few conquered diseases. All worthy, but limited aspirations. The culmination of the existing MDGs in 2015 creates the opportunity to articulate a new vision for "development" and improved ways to measure progress, so that development remains relevant in a world of emerging low and middle income countries and growing middle classes.

Discussion: Shaping Beliefs and Culture
To what extent is socio-economic development in societies influenced by cultural traits, such as individual values and beliefs? Are such behavioral factors determined primarily by persistent historical forces, or can they be altered and shaped in the short-run as well? This session explores cutting-edge research ranging from examining the historical roots of cultural norms, to an examination of how religious beliefs and political experiences can have profound impacts on individual and group decision-making. The session will offer insights into whether beliefs and culture matter, and the extent to which they can be influenced by policies.

TED Style Presentation: Dawn or Dusk? Envisaging the aftermath of today's global economic conundrum by looking at the past
How do we make sense of the current economic situation from a historical perspective: are we re-visiting the 1970s when rich countries stagnated in an economic morass, while natural resource exporters boomed? And what is to come: will our era be followed by a decade like the 1980s, when developed countries rebounded and natural resource economies collapsed? Or, are there other historical parallels more enlightening for today's context?
Niall Ferguson - Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University; Author of "The West and The Rest" [Presentation slides]
|5:30 - 6:00pm
|Book Launch: The Limits of Institutional Reform
Developing countries commonly adopt reforms to improve their governments yet they usually fail to produce more functional and effective governments. Matthew Andrews argues that reforms often fail to make governments better because they are introduced as signals to gain short-term support. These signals introduce unrealistic best practices that do not fit developing country contexts and are not considered relevant by implementing agents. The result is a set of new forms that do not function. However, there are realistic solutions emerging from institutional reforms in some developing countries. Lessons from these experiences suggest that reform limits, although challenging to adopt, can be overcome by focusing change on problem solving through an incremental process that involves multiple agents.

Just over a week ago the iPad 4th generation was sold out through Apple's online store, and displayed a 1 week shipping delay notice. Today it looks like Apple has caught up with the demand for the 4th generation iPad as the availability status has changed to "In Stock."
Personally I was surprised when Apple's 4th generation iPad sold out of its initial launch day stock because the tablet was released only 7 months after the 3rd generation iPad. I think it is a safe bet however, that the demand for the 4th generation iPad stemmed mostly from those still in possession of the original or second generation iPad.
Did you order a 4th generation iPad? Let us know in the comments section.

A critical moment
There is no excuse or justification for the flotilla incident in which Israeli commandos boarded six ships bearing humanitarian aid for the Palestinian people in Gaza, sparking a violent confrontation that resulted in the deaths of nine people. More details about the incident are bound to come out and ultimate responsibility for it will be fiercely debated.
Critiquing a PCUSA report on Israel/Palestine
Old habits die hard. Despite numerous attempts by mainline Protestant denominations to promote historically informed studies of Judaism, repudiate supersessionist theologies and engage in conversations wth Jews, the old habit of bearing false witness against Jewish neighbors lives on. In recent years this practice has thrived especially in mainline Protestant statements on the Middle East.
Gaza called "a virtual prison"
The National Council of Churches, its key mainline members and other church organizations are calling for Israel to alter its policies on the Gaza Strip after an Israeli action against an international flotilla on the high seas resulted in nine deaths, many wounded and damaged diplomatic relations.

La Floridita Fuerte Magnum Reviews

Have been an avid Cigar smoker for 3 years so far one of my favorites a very good buy for the price
I ordered a box because of the price. Now I have reordered 2 times. I had one out of 30 that was too tight to draw. I have been real happy with them. I like the size too.
I picked up a box just to try. It turned out to be a good choice. It will be added to my go to cigar list.
These cigars really surprised me. I was buying theses cigars as a bargain cigar and hoping that they would be smokable. Wow! Not only are they, they are extremely good. I agree w/ Don in NY that they match up very well w/ the premium sticks. I recommend storing them in your humidor for at least a week before you start enjoying them.
I bought a box of the La Floridita "Magnums" and discovered a very tasteful cigar, great burn, and construction. This cigar burned better than some of the premium sticks. It will not be to everyones liking, however, I have over 30 years of cigar smoking experience and this is better than the average stick! For the price and taste/construction, etc. go with this stick.

Robert Reich: Let's also stop hoping Wall Street will mend itself. What just happened at J.P. Morgan reveals how fragile and opaque the banking system continues to be.
Gulf Oil Spill: The Importance of Presidential Indignation and Explanation
Robert Reich: Respectful disagreement is virtuous in a democratic society, but so is appropriate indignation. Indignation signals to the public that social responsibilities have been breached, and thereby lends credence and authority to all those who are working toward them. Franklin D. Roosevelt had no hesitancy blaming the "economic royalists" – the rich bankers and executives who stood in the way of the New Deal.
Wall Street's Political Poison Still Catnip for Many Incumbents
Robert Reich: Today's quiz: At a time when California's Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman is losing ground to her Republican rival in the primary because of her ties to Wall Street…when Wall Street is political poison, why are politicians still so intent on doing its bidding?
Lincoln to the Rescue
Robert Reich: Blanche Lincoln wants to force the banks to put their derivatives into separate entities that aren't subsidized by you and me. This is just common sense. Her move would also end the big banks' monopoly over derivatives, thereby reducing their risk to the financial system. It would also cut dramatically into the big banks' profits.

While Thumbprint Caterpillar cards were fun, Ana, my 4-yr-old, seemed to want more. That's how this fabric-card caterpillar project came about.
Items Used: scraps of cotton fabric, card stock paper, craft glue, scissors, googly eyes, dried garden debris, pink fuzz
- Step 1: Cut some scrap fabric to reasonable size/shape
- Step 2: Apply some glue generously on card stock paper and paste the pieces of fabric willy-nilly covering the entire surface
- Step 3: Allow it to dry a little
- Step 4: On the backside of the card stock paper with glued-on fabric, draw little circles with some bottle cap, without much wastage
- Step 5: Cut out the circles as best as possible
- Step 6: Fold a card stock paper to required greeting card size; Glue these cut out circles onto it to make the caterpillar form; cut little antennae from the remains of the fabric-card or use twigs from the garden
- Step 7: Add fuzz, twigs, and other yard debris for texture; glue eyes with googly eyes or beads; glue pink fuzz or a piece of yarn or any other handy thing for a smiley mouth
- Step 8: Stand back and beam
Ana needed some help cutting out the circles - the card stock with glued on fabric was rather thick making it tough even for me to cut out.
Disclaimer: we were not aiming for anatomically correct reproductions, just something conjured up with some imagination and produced with available items at hand.
A variation: To get extra dimension and effect, we took little strips of card stock paper about 0.5cm wide by 1.5cm long, tri-folded it, glued one per circle on the back, then, glued the other end (flat surface) of the tri-fold strip on to the greeting card, for the standard "raised" effect.
Also glued leaves from the backyard tree for legs/hair, and Ana's touch: glue some green leaves for the caterpillar to eat. Of course, when the leaves dry out they will naturally fall off, so, make this card fresh and hand it over to the lucky recipient right away :)
And, when caterpillars are here, can butterflies be far behind?
This butterfly is Ana's imagination: There was enough fabric-glued card leftover from making caterpillars and Ana started cutting them up just like that. And, seeing that there were purple and pink pieces that sort of looked like butterfly wings, she started gluing the various pieces to resemble the butterfly form. There were leftover antennae pieces that she didn't want to throw away so they came in handy as well. I gave her the buttons just for effect.

As TSG ponders club ball destinations for a series of players, here' an addendum.
Which USMNT player is primed to be the next one at the EPL's perennial top four clubs?
Yes, we realize that–gulp–Claudio Reyna's former jerseys, the Manchester City Citizens, might very well Tevez their way in to the top four, but let's talk about the four clubs that really *mean* England football over the past two decades: Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool & Arsenal.
Tim Howard had his spell at Old Trafford, while outfield players Jonathan Spector, Jovan Kirovski, and even Kenny Cooper and Freddy Adu couldn't stick with.
Over at Arsenal, the latest American to trial was Lee Nyugen!
At Chelsea would a Russian buy an American? Red Dawn is now 25 years in the past…surely that stinging has subsided?
Could the answer be none other than Captain Clutch, Clint Dempsey whose manager is rumored headed to Liverpool soon?
Who do you think? Donovan? Charlie Davies? Jozy Altidore…fun thoughts here.

David Moyes, who marked his first game in charge with a 4-1 win at Swansea, had previously criticised the fixture list as his men face a tricky run of games which sees them take on Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City within the space of a month.
Evans is currently sidelined having aggravated an ankle injury in pre-season, but he believes that the difficult opening matches could work to United's advantage.
"It might not be a bad thing to get straight into the tough games," he told Inside United.
"We've been waiting all summer to get stuck back into it, so why not bring on the hard games straight away?
"In any competition you always want a good start and the Premier League is no different. A winning start will obviously help you later on, but it's more important how you finish the season."
