Recipe: Green Papaya Salad (Som Tam)
As the name implies, green papaya is basically an unripe papaya. They sell fresh green papaya at the Manila Oriental Market in San Francisco, in whole and shredded form. I got a bag of already-shredded green papaya and took my treasure home and made fresh green papaya salad. If your local Asian markets don't carry this, you can buy it online here. If you simply cannot find green papaya, don't worry. Just substitute shredded carrots or mung bean sprouts. These will have the same "crunch" and will carry the dressing very well.
Green Papaya Salad (Som Tam)
1 small green papaya peeled, seeded, and grated or 3 cups of pre-shredded green papaya
1 cup mung bean sprouts
3 green scallions, sliced thin
1/2 cup fresh Thai basil chopped roughly
1/2 cup fresh chopped cilantro
1 to 2 small tomatoes, cut in strips (optional)
1/2 cup raw peanuts, crushed
1 to 2 tablespoons of dried shrimp
1 red Thai chili pepper, sliced thinly - adjust amounts to the spice level you desire.
1 1/2 tablespooms sugar
2 limes, juiced
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
2 to 3 tablespoons fish sauce
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a bowl and crush with a pestle or the back of a spoon to release the flavors. Taste. Adjust the fish sauce to your liking - I prefer more so I usually add extra fish sauce. Add the chiles bit by bit until you get the spice level you can handle.
Add the other ingredients and toss well. Taste and adjust the lime juice or fish sauce if needed.
Top with crushed peanuts. Enjoy! This keeps well and was still good the next day; the flavors were more concentrated.

I love reading posts by jilted fans stating that the Rangers are one of the worst franchises in sports history. Would that mean that the Philadelphia Phillies are the absolute worst since they have more losses than anyone? How about the Chicago Cubs? Both teams that sell out their buildings on a regular basis without winning much if at all. Stick with hockey you say, sure. How about the Toronto Maple Leafs? When have they last won a cup? But they still bring in tons of fans.
No one is saying the Devils are a bad organization. Lou made them a powerhouse, but the Rangers are still the most valued (or second most behind Toronto, I'm not positive) franchise in the NHL. One of the worst teams in pro sports huh? Be a NYR hater but don't spew stupidity, you make yourself sound dumb.
This is shaping up to be a great series, far from over after 3 games. Stop posting things I'd yell at my kids for and cheer for your team. Win or lose it's always fun to have these two teams face each other in the playoffs. It's a sport for crying out loud, not life.
Could one of you from the crowd supporting the ACLU (or ALCU as the article titles it) please tell me why you're complaining? If you legitimately live in the state of NJ, have a social security number and utility bill or other documentation what is your gripe. They are simply trying to make it that legitimate residents (citizens or not) are able to obtain the 'privilege' of obtaining a driver's license. Driving a vehicle is not a right, it is a privilege you have to earn. You need to take a test and follow the rules of the road. Not all people, age 17 and over have licenses and for good reason. If you're part of the population that has been able to get a license in the past, this shouldn't be so hard. If you pay your taxes, that everyone is so caught up on, you should have a social security number. That's pretty much all they're requiring aside from proof of residence. So please tell me what your complaint is?
UNETHICAL?! You have the right to file for an extension every single year if you wanted to. It has nothing to do with leading by example. Plenty of my friends and family, as well as those I help prepare returns for, don't have all the documents they need on time to file by April 15 all the time. The fact that the Star Ledger is making a big deal about this is laughable. I'll bet you anything a good 10-15% of the employees at the newspaper filed for an extension. It's not uncommon, illegal, or unethical. Check with the IRS, it's 100% legal and acceptable, so long as they get paid.
Nice dialogue, but ERISA in no way oversees guidelines for health insurance. ERISA governs retirement plans and other qualified savings vehicles. I almost listened to your explanation before you made that mistake. I never said conservatives "own" the word marriage, just use some common sense and think about how people have viewed marriage for centuries. Now you want it changed and think everyone should just be okay with it and be accepting of your chosen lifestyle.
I have no problem with it either way, I was just pointing out the obvious based on the hundreds of comments on this board and other media.
I agree that everyone is entitled to rights as a couple regardless of who you choose to be with. However, I find it shocking that people are so shocked that this happened. Everyone knew he would veto it, so why the surprise? Why no anger at all the general populations of very liberal states that voted against legalizing gay marriage?
Everyone deserves equal rights, but when you question the fabric that the vast majority have followed for centuries you don't expect them to push back? As I said earlier, it's all about the word "marriage", not the meaning. If government and all its agencies made sure to recognize civil unions the way they should this would not be an issue, that's the bigger issue. Recognize marriages and unions the same and the issue is removed.
Gay men and women will disagree with me because they want a "marriage" but believe me as someone married for 15 years and having seen a dozen of my friends divorce, you may want to rethink that. Oh, and one of the guys had a gay marriage and they're no longer together so it's not just us straight people.
Not defending his campaign promises. Just pointing out the obvious. He was never for legalizing gay marriage and isn't about to change his mind. Sweeney and Oliver knew he would veto it, they were just playing politics.
I couldn't care less either way, just read all the comments on this board. Sounds a lot like 50/50 for and against. I really think the Dems are making a big mistake. I don't see this losing if put on a referendum and even if it loses it would follow the path of Prop 8 in California. So what do they have to lose, they already lost this battle.
For everyone saying this was a political move by Gov Christie, you must not pay attention. He answered during the debates against Corzine that he was against gay marriage and would not support it. This veto is standing behind his beliefs, just like those of you that are for gay marriage, he is entitled to stand by his beliefs (religious or otherwise) just as you are. If this went to a referendum in November, I for one, believe it would pass handily and then it becomes part of the state constitution where Gov Christie cannot veto it.
This is not a civil rights issue, sorry to disappoint many of you. Men have every right to marry and women have every right to marry, it doesn't even matter what the color of your skin is. That you decide to live your life with someone of the same gender is perfectly fine. The fact that civil unions are not protected as well as they should be is not fair and needs to be addressed, however this issue is more about the term "marriage" than the actual deed. Most everyone I know, conservatives and liberals, don't care who anyone chooses to love and be with and deserve all the benefits and rights associated with it. But calling that union a "marriage" is where the division is.
If this was such an obvious thing to pass, why are there only 6, almost 7, other states that have legalized it? Why hasn't the federal government with Democratic leadership made it the law of the land? The answer is obvious, it's too controversial for the feds and it has failed EVERY public referendum vote EVERY time even in left-leaning states. Fix the civil union rights and give everyone the protections they deserve without offending the religious/moral folks about their view of "marriage".
Why can't Devil fans admit they got the benefit of a call that could have gone either way and be thankful for the win. A strange bounce or good side of a call is part of sports. Of course the Devils feel the call was right and the Rangers feel otherwise, it would be the reverse if the call was on Kovy running into/being pushed into Lundqvist. Devils get 2 points Rangers will get a chance for payback. Thats sports. Arguing over a call won't change it. Next game please.
Fantumgrey, you and everyone else keep missing some key facts. Everyone calling for the right to marry forgets that marriage has been for thousands of years based on two major factors, religion and procreation. Now I don't care what religion people choose to practice and whether or not they choose to have a family. But people need to remember that the United States was founded by religious folks and that's why marriage allows for certain privileges and rights. This isn't about civil rights, it's about the stupidity of laws including IRS code and other fundamental rights all Americans should be entitled to. This is why so many people are against gay marriage. Change the laws from only recognizing marriage as the key to these 'rights' and you eliminate pretty much any argument.
Oh and for the record, I'm all for any of my gay friends and family to be happily married. I'm just pointing out what the law of the land is and how if it were changed to address the times and recognize civil unions as it should, there really wouldn't be an argument. But if two gay people wish to ruin a perfectly good relationship by getting hitched, I'm all for it. Weddings help the economy.
If the 'majority' of people in the US want this, then why has it failed in every state where it has been up for a vote? You can try to say it's all about Gov Christie, and I don't agree with everything the governor stands for, but the truth is your statement is false. When up for public vote, allowing gay marriage has failed every time. Gov Christie doesn't agree with gay marriage, just like many Democrats don't agree with things all Republicans nationwide support, it's his choice. Does it really matter if gay couples are allowed to marry, I couldn't care either way, but your statement is unfounded. Why don't they just cut all the posturing, and have the gay marriage bill up for a vote this November and let the population of New Jersey decide as we should be the ones to make that choice by popular vote. Ends all debate right there.
Yawn, haven't we seen this movie already? Exactly why the BCS, is a joke. Yes, Alabama is arguably the second best team in the country but when you don't even win your own division to make it to the conference championship game, how on earth do you earn the right to play for the national title? If LSU loses on this neutral field and loses by 3 or less, how is Alabama the Natl Champ? The teams will then be 1-1 with LSU winning on the road AT Tuscaloosa.
I for one would rather see a different match-up, we've seen 'bama/LSU already this year haven't we?

Get More: Beyoncé, Top 20 Countdown, Countdown, Free Music Videos
By Sabrina Rojas Weiss
Beyoncé premiered the video for her infectious single "Countdown" last night, and, to quote fellow TFL-er Jordan, "I sorta covet her entire life in this." But since we can't currently be pregnant with Jay-Z's baby and running the world, we'll dial down our wish list and instead covet a few of the things Bey wears in this colorful homage to Audrey Hepburn's Funny Face with a little and Flashdance thrown in for good measure.
From the late-'50s-esque dance sequences to the "Sesame Street" split-screen illustrations of her "countdown," this whole video is a peppy ad for her gorgeous, occasional-baby-bump-showing wardrobe. But we'll focus on a few things actual real people like us could wear (sorry, spangly gown and striped shirt and suspenders!)

I'm an Expert Panelist and Judge of Guardian Health & Beauty Awards 2014Posted by in About Me | Lifestyle
Hey Everyone!
I barely update you on what I've been up to, so today I thought I would share with you something special. Last week I was on the panel and one of the expert judges for the Guardian Health & Beauty Awards 2014! Among other expert panelists were Addy Lee, Chairman of Monsoon Hair Group, Shunji Matsuo, CEO of Shunjiu Matsuo, Dr. Gerald Tan, President of the Aesthetic Dentistry Society of Singapore and a few others so it was a complete honor to be considered up there with them in terms of beauty and product knowledge.
I never told you but I was also one of the judges for the Her World Beauty Awards and the Aesthetics & Beauty Magazine Awards this year as well! We attended the awards event that was held at the Shangrila and basically all the brand teams of all the brands stocked in Guardian stores were there. It was nerve-wracking to get up on stage and talk to everyone. Hey, I even did some presenting of the awards and shook their hands to take a photo. I've only seen my Dad do this lol.-----> Read More

A method and system for identifying advertisement and search term combinations for placing advertisements along with search results. The advertisement system includes multiple advertisement generators that automatically create advertisement sets that each contain one or more advertisements, one or more search terms, and a link to an advertised item.

The described technology relates generally to generating and placing advertisements that are keyword targeted.
Many search engine services, such as Google and Overture, provide for searching for information that is accessible via the Internet. These search engine services allow users to search for web pages and other Internet-accessible resources that may be of interest to users. After a user submits a search request that includes search terms, the search engine service identifies web pages that may be related to those search terms. To quickly identify related web pages, the search engine services may maintain a mapping of keywords to web pages. This mapping may be generated by "crawling" the web (i.e., the World Wide Weby to identify the keywords of each web page. To crawl the web, a search engine service may use a list of root web pages to identify all web pages that are accessible through those root web pages. The keywords of any particular web page can be identified using various well-known information retrieval techniques, such as identifying the words of a headline, the words supplied in the metadata of the web page, the words that are highlighted, and so on. Some search engine services can even search information sources that are not accessible via the Internet. For example, a book publisher may make the content of their books available to a search engine service. The search engine may generate a mapping between the keywords and books. When a search engine service receives a search request that includes one or more search terms, it uses its mapping to identify those information sources, (e.g., web pages or books) whose keywords most closely match the search terms. The collection of information sources that most closely matches the search terms is referred to as the "search result." The search engine service then ranks the information sources of the search result based on the closeness of each match, web page popularity (e.g., Google's page ranking), and so on. The search engine service then displays to the user links to those information sources in an order that is based on their rankings. Oftentimes, so many information sources are identified as part of a search result that the search engine service groups the links into pages and displays one page at a time to the user. To view portions of a search result that are not on the first page, a user would need to select a next page button. Because users need to take this additional action to view links that are not displayed on the first page, only a small percentage of users actually select links that are not presented on the first page of a search result.
Some search engine services do not charge a fee to the providers of web pages for including links to their web pages in search results. Rather, the search engine services obtain revenue by placing advertisements along with search results. These paid-for advertisements are commonly referred to as "sponsored links," "sponsored matches," or "paid-for search results." A vendor who wants to place an advertisement along with certain search results provides a search engine service with an advertisement and search terms. When a search request is received, the search engine service identifies the advertisements whose search terms most closely match those of the search request. The search engine service then displays those advertisements along with the search results. If more advertisements are identified than will fit on the first page of the search results, the search engine service selects to display on the first page those advertisements belonging to the vendors that have offered to pay the highest price (e.g., placed the highest bid) for their advertisement. The search engine services can either charge for placement of each advertisement along with search results (i.e., cost per impression) or charge only when a user actually selects a link associated with an advertisement (i.e., cost per click).
Advertisers would like to maximize the effectiveness of advertising dollars used to pay for advertisements placed along with search results. Thus, advertisers try to identify search term and advertisement combinations that result in the highest benefits (e.g., most profit) to the advertiser. It would be desirable to have techniques that would allow advertisers to maximize the effectiveness of their advertising dollars by identifying effective advertisement and search term combinations. Moreover, it would be desirable to have an automated way to identify such effective combinations, determine an amount to pay for placement of the advertisements, and provide the combinations to search engine services for placement of the advertisements along with search results that match the search terms.
A method and system for identifying advertisement and search term combinations for placing advertisements along with search results is provided. In one embodiment, the advertisement system includes multiple advertisement generators that automatically create advertisement sets that each contain one or more advertisements, one or more search terms, and a link to each advertised item. The different advertisement generators may use different algorithms to automatically generate (or "create") advertisements (also referred to as the "creative"), identify search terms, and create links to form advertisement sets. For example, an advertisement generator may scan through a catalog of books that are being offered for sale by an advertiser and generate an advertisement set for a particular book that includes an advertisement based on the title of the book, search terms based on the words in the title, and a link to a detailed web page associated with the book. The advertisement system also includes an advertisement manager that receives advertisement sets from the advertisement generators, identifies a fee to be associated with each advertisement set, and selects which advertisement sets are to be submitted to various search engine services. Typically, each search engine service will only allow an advertiser to submit one advertisement set for each search term or each combination of search terms. (If a search engine service supports advertisement sets having more than one advertisement, it may randomly select one of the advertisements to display. If not, then the advertisement manager may select the advertisement that would provide the most benefit to the advertiser as the only advertisement of the advertisement set.) Thus, when different advertisement sets specify the same search terms, the advertisement manager selects which of the different advertisement sets to submit. For example, advertisement sets may be selected based on past success in achieving an advertiser's objective (e.g., maximizing profits or maximizing impressions). The advertisement system may also include a fee calculator that generates a fee amount or bid for each advertisement set. The fee calculator may analyze advertising metrics collected by the advertiser (e.g., average revenue per click) for advertisements generated by the same advertisement generator or metrics provided by the search engine services to identify an appropriate fee amount. In this way, advertisement sets may be automatically generated and automatically submitted to search engine services to help achieve an advertiser's objectives.
The advertisement system may be used to generate and place advertisements along with any type of content that has associated keywords. Such advertising is referred to as "keyword-targeted advertising." A search term associated with a search result is an example of such a keyword, and the search result is an example of the content. Another example of a keyword and content would be a web page with text (e.g., a news story) as its content and a keyword derived from the text (e.g., a headline) or the metadata associated with the text. Keywords may be derived using various Information Retrieval techniques based on word frequencies, clustering algorithms that identify related keywords, and so on. One skilled in the art will appreciate that the advertisement system can be used to generate and place advertisements with an advertisement placement service (e.g., a search engine service) for use in other contexts, such as while content is being streamed to a client, on a web page through which a product can be purchased, and so on.
In one embodiment, an advertisement generator determines where to place an advertisement for an item based on previous selections of links associated with that item that were included in search results. For example, if a link is presented on the third page of a search result and a user selects that link, then it may be assumed that the user thought that link was especially relevant to the search request because the user had to view several pages of the search result to find that link. In general, the advertisement generator identifies those links that were not prominently displayed in a search result but were nevertheless selected by users. The advertisement generator then generates an advertisement set that includes an advertisement for the item associated with the links, the search terms associated with the search request, and a link to a web page with information about the item. That advertisement is then submitted to a search engine service so the advertisement can be displayed prominently along with the search results of search requests that use those search terms. In this way, the advertisement generator identifies search term and item combinations that may be used to produce very effective advertisement sets.
The advertisement manager, upon receiving an advertisement set, invokes a common search term filter 105 to determine whether the search terms of the advertisement set are too common for use as search terms in advertisement sets (e.g., noise words). The advertisement system may not want to place an advertisement associated with overly common search terms because the fee amount would likely need to be too high to compete with other advertisers. If one or more search terms are filtered, the advertisement manager may remove each filtered search term from the advertisement set or may not submit that advertisement set to a search engine service. The words included in a common search term filter may be automatically identified by, for example, analyzing word frequencies in a corpus of documents. In one embodiment, the advertisement manager also includes another filter for search terms that are for some reason undesirable (e.g., politically sensitive or a trademark) for use as search terms in advertisement sets. These undesirable search terms may be manually designated for each country or region. For those advertisement sets that pass the common search term filter and the undesirable search term filter, the advertisement manager invokes a bid calculator 106 to calculate a bid amount for each advertisement set. The bid calculator may access various metrics of a data store 107 to determine the appropriate bid amount for each advertisement set. The metrics may include detailed information relating to previous placements of advertisements with search terms and may be collected from the search engine services, from session data of users who selected advertisements, and so on. Such detailed information may include the cost of an advertisement, whether a user selected an advertisement, resulting profit from the selection of an advertisement, and so on. The bid calculator may also generate different bid amounts for each search engine service. The bid calculator may also use different algorithms for different categories of advertisements. For example, an advertiser may use an algorithm that will maximize the profit for established product lines, and a different algorithm that will maximize sales for new product lines. The advertisement manager may determine whether an advertisement set has already been submitted for the search terms of the advertisement set. If so, the advertisement manager may decide whether to withdraw the submission of the previous advertisement set and submit this new advertisement set or disregard this new advertisement set.
The advertisement manager submits work items to the work manager. A work item instructs the work manager to submit an advertisement set, withdraw a previously submitted advertisement set, or update the bid amount of a previously submitted advertisement set. The work manager may queue work items in the data store until an advertisement submitter requests them. The work manager may track which work items have already been provided to which advertisement submitter-effectively maintaining a queue for each advertisement submitter. The work manager may also modify work items relating to the same advertisement set. For example, if a queue contains two work items to change a bid for the same advertisement set, then the work manager may change the bid amount on the first work item and delete the second work item to increase the efficiency of changing the bid to the new bid amount.
Each advertisement submitter may be associated with a specific search engine service and be tailored to submit advertisement sets in accordance with an interface defined by the search engine service. For example, one advertisement submitter may be associated with Google, and another may be associated with Overture. The advertisement submitters periodically retrieve work items from the work manager and convert those work items into service requests for the search engine services. The service requests include requests to submit an advertisement set, withdraw a previously submitted advertisement set, and change the bid of a previously submitted advertisement set.
The advertisement system may be implemented on computer systems and servers that include a central processing unit, a memory, input devices (e.g., keyboard and pointing devices), output devices (e.g., display devices), and storage devices (e.g., disk drives). The memory and storage devices are computer-readable media that may contain instructions that implement the advertisement system. In addition, the data structures and message structures may be stored or transmitted via a data transmission medium, such as a signal on a communications link. Various communications links may be used, such as the Internet, a local area network, a wide area network, or a point-to-point dial-up connection.
One skilled in the art will appreciate that various algorithms may be used to determine the bid amount, such as a minimum-bid algorithm, a fixed-bid algorithm, a profit-based algorithm, and a revenue-based algorithm. The minimum-bid algorithm sets a bid to the minimum bid amount that is specified by a search engine service assuming the placement of the advertisement is deemed worth the minimum bid. The fixed-bid algorithm sets a bid to a set amount (e.g., $0.25). The profit-based algorithm sets a bid to a bid amount calculated to produce a certain profit level (e.g., break even). For example, profit may be calculated based on the average profit resulting from the selection of an advertisement or related advertisements. Advertisements may be related in many different ways, such as being for the same product (e.g., a certain book), for the same category of product (e.g., a book), or generated by the same advertisement generator. Profit may also be calculated based on the profit of a combination of related advertisements using a metric that may factor in relatedness, size of advertising data set (e.g., the advertisement was selected 5 or 500 times), and so on. The revenue-based algorithm sets the bid to an amount based on a percentage of the anticipated revenue (e.g., 10%). Revenue can be calculated in a manner similar to the calculation of profit.
Bid amounts may be adjusted based on the anticipated conversion rate at an advertiser's web site. The conversion rate may indicate the percent of visitors who actually make a purchase at the web site. At certain times of the year (e.g., Christmas season), the conversion rate may be much higher than at other times.
If an advertisement is to be placed at a time with a conversion rate that is different from the conversion rate during which the advertising metrics were collected, then the bid amount may be increased or decreased accordingly. For example, if the advertising metrics were collected when the conversion rate was 10%, and the conversion rate at time of display is expected to be 20%, then the bid amount may be doubled (e.g., multiplied by the ratio of the conversion rates) in expectation that the advertisement will more likely achieve the advertiser's objective.
Bid amounts may also be calculated or adjusted based on bids of competing advertisers. Some search engine services make their bid statistics available to all their advertisers. For example, the bid statistics may identify the search terms, bid amounts, and placement positions of advertisements. For example, if a profit-based bid amount is set, then the bid amount may be reduced when the bid statistics indicate that a lower bid amount would be sufficient to get the advertisement placed in the top three advertisement positions of a search result.
One skilled in the art will appreciate that although specific embodiments of the advertisement system have been described herein for purposes of illustration, various modifications may be made without deviating from the spirit and scope of the invention. The term "item" includes any product, service, or concept that can be advertised. For example, a political party can place advertisements relating to a particular candidate or cause. In addition, an advertisement set may not have a link associated with it. An advertiser may want to simply display the information of an advertisement to users who submit requests using a certain search term. For example, a candidate may want an advertisement displayed when a user submits a search request with the name of their opponent as a search term. In one embodiment, the advertisement sets may be generated automatically by a computer algorithm, manually by advertisers, or by some combination thereof. In one embodiment, when multiple advertisement sets conflict, the advertisement manager may submit the advertisement sets in a round-robin manner so the effectiveness of each advertisement set can be assessed and the most effective advertisement set can ultimately be submitted. Also, the bid amount may be modified based on the advertisement generator. For example, a certain advertisement generator may generate advertisement sets that have been historically much more effective than the advertisement set of other advertisement generators. In one embodiment, the common search terms can be identified by analyzing information such as product reviews that have been provided by users. If a word or phrase is used in more than a certain percent of the reviews, then it is considered too common. More generally, the analysis can be performed on a corpus that includes all or a portion of the web pages that are accessible. Accordingly, the invention is not limited except by the appended claims.

The next time you pull into a gas station and pull out $100 from your wallet, take a look around. Notice the other vehicles that are sucking up the $4-per-gallon gasoline. My guess is you would be hard-pressed to find a late-model car, truck or SUV that has anything smaller than a 200-horsepower engine.
I know more than half-a-dozen family and friends driving vehicles that punch out a mind-numbing 300 to 500 horsepower. That is a lot of ponies unless you spend your Friday nights down at the local drag strip.
It was not supposed to turn out this way. Thirty-five years ago, I carpooled to the University of Calgary with my best friend Dave. The world had just come off of two OPEC-induced oil shocks and he drove a 1976 Honda Civic. It looked exactly like the car pictured at the top, replete with the tiny fog lights and the canary-yellow paint.
Dave's Honda had a 91-cubic-inch engine that produced 53 horsepower. For four years, we drove 40 miles round-trip in it. On alternate weeks we took my car, a 1976 Mercury Capri. That was a bit of a hot rod for its day, generating 130 horsepower.
What I remember most about Dave's Honda is that it got us to class on time, it never broke down and we passed a lot of gas stations. It was to be the wave of the future.
But in the early 1980s, crude-oil prices fell all the way to $12 per barrel. People stopped caring about fuel economy and became obsessed with horsepower and status.
From 1984 through 2010, the fuel economy of new U.S. cars increased… from 27 mpg to 27.5 mpg. Forget the tech revolution. In the past three decades, the average car can now go half a mile farther on a gallon of gasoline.
Source: Wikipedia
As a result, it is not hard to understand that demand for gasoline in the U.S. has nearly doubled in the past 35 years.
The Wall Street Journal addressed the issue a year ago with a story which asked: Whatever happened to fuel efficiency? According to the newspaper, "If there is a super fuel-efficient car in your future, then it was built in 1986."
The Journal pointed out the Environmental Protection Agency's top 10 list of cars with the best fuel economy in history. According to The Journal: "Many of the best haven't been available in showrooms for years or even decades."
"In addition to music, the 1980s were a high point for fuel-efficient cars," concluded the WSJ. "Even when judged against today's high-tech hybrids, cars like the 1987 Honda CRX shine."
The CRX was updated version of my friend Dave's '76 Honda Civic. Like that Civic, the CRX was fun, dependable and it got 47 mpg! It turned out nobody wanted it.
The New "Stupid" Car
It almost seems as if Detroit doesn't even know what the price of gasoline is.
A few weeks ago, Ford announced its newest Mustang, the Shelby Super Snake (try saying that four times in row). In case you are worried about merging onto the interstate, you can take comfort in knowing the Super Snake pumps out 800 horsepower. That is about the same horsepower Japan used in Zero fighters during World War II, and it will catapult today's new Mustang from zero to 60 in fewer than 4 seconds. If luxury is more your style, you can pick up the Cadillac CTS-V super sedan with its 556-horsepower supercharged engine that gives you a top speed of 190 mph.
With products like these, it is not hard to see how Detroit has been broke and begging Washington for money since Chrysler first got on bended knee in 1980.
The real question is: Why do we ignore all common sense when it comes to things like cars, yet complain when we have to pay so much at the gas pump? (By the way, I don't exempt myself from these criticisms. My lust for fast cars ended only after I almost killed myself in my 1995 Chevy Camaro. By today's standards, the Camaro was relatively tame, generating just 275 horsepower and a top speed of only 155 mph.)
It's the Economy that Needs Turbo-charging
Remember the 1980s when America had a fast economy and slow automobiles? Today, it is the opposite. Unemployment is a chronic problem. Credit is almost gridlocked. And inflation is starting to boil over. A single oil shock — say upheaval in Saudi Arabia — could send the U.S. economy over a cliff.
Even-higher gasoline prices would quickly choke off U.S. consumer spending, the one bright spot in a dull economy. Say gasoline gets above $7 per gallon. In that case, there won't be much left to spend on clothes, entertainment and even basics like food and mortgages.
That is exactly what happened in the 1970s following two oil embargoes. The price of crude oil rocketed from $3 per barrel to $36 per barrel. Unemployment soared from 4.9 percent in 1973 to 5.6 percent in 1974 and then hit 8.5 percent in 1975. Then, things got bad. As a result, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost two-thirds of its inflation-adjusted value by 1980.
All this happened just more than a generation ago, yet we Americans continue to make stupid mistakes — from the cars we choose to the leaders we elect.
For example, President Barack Obama wants to spend billions of dollars on new rail systems, new solar-energy power plants and electric cars — most of them built off a blueprint that doesn't even exist.
My question is: Why don't we improve our economic prospects by returning to tried-and-true technologies (like fuel-efficient cars) while exploring and developing America's own fossil fuel reserves, especially those offshore and in Alaska?
The answer comes down to two words: power and corruption. Despite the fact taxpayers keep bailing out Detroit, U.S. automakers could not care less about what is good for the country. They care about padding profits and collecting big bonuses. And you don't have to be an automotive engineer to see the fat profits in an 800-horsepower muscle car compared to an economy car that gets 50 mpg.
As a nation, we must start making smarter choices because we are running out of chances. When I was going to college in that Honda, the U.S. imported 6 million barrels of crude oil each day. Today, the U.S. imports twice that amount (see chart below). Yet Washington doesn't bat an eye as Madison Avenue convinces us we cannot possibly be happy unless we have a 300-horsepower V-8 parked in the garage.
Through it all, Obama proclaims he wants to rebuild America, make it a Green utopia fabricated from fanciful wishes and borrowed money.
But listen hard and you can almost hear them coming: a mechanized army of Obama electric cars. What a shame when all we needed was to modernize that little yellow Honda and elect some good leaders.
Yours in good times and bad,
John Myers

Anna Marie Greene receives her award for Dispatcher of the Year during a THP awards ceremony on Feb. 27. (Photo Contributed)
Moments after watching a car crash into two trees off Interstate 26, Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper Jeff Appleba said he was taking cover behind his own cruiser while the vehicle's driver fired on him.
While Appleba returned fire, at the other end of his radio THP Dispatcher Anna Marie Greene was coordinating other law enforcement agencies to assist him, and letting him know that help was on the way. After a time, Appleba and his backup subdued the gunman, and no lives were lost. Once the situation had concluded, Greene resumed her duties fielding transmissions from other THP troopers.
Citing that incident, which occurred Jan. 3, 2013, on Thursday night the THP named Greene as 2013's dispatcher of the year during a special awards ceremony in Nashville.
"I was totally shocked," Greene said. "It felt good, but I was caught off-guard. I was not expecting it."
For the past 18 years, Greene, an Erwin native and Jonesborough resident, has worked for the THP's Fall Branch District, a 13-county district whose service area includes Washington, Sullivan, Carter and Unicoi counties. When asked what she has enjoyed most about her 18 years of dispatching for THP, Greene summed it up in two words: "Helping people."
"It means a lot to me to have done something good to help somebody out," she said.
For Appleba, who has since been promoted to sergeant in THP's Knoxville District, Greene's desire to help people — especially her troopers — has been felt through her radio transmissions.
"I wouldn't have wanted to have anybody else on duty that night," Appleba said. "When she retires, the highway patrol is going to feel the loss."
With regard to the shooting incident, Appleba said Greene's skill as a dispatcher was never more evident.
"I felt that she handled the situation extremely well and professionally," Appleba said. "She had been calm in handling the situation and getting help to where I was. She made all the right choices and all the right calls that night."
Greene's ability to keep calm during the shooting was named as one of the main reasons she won the award. In a news release, THP agents wrote that "Greene's calm and confident demeanor was reassuring and helped lead Trooper Appleba back home to his family at the end of the day."
According to Greene, getting him back home was her ulitmate goal.
"The main focus was his safety," Greene said. "The calmer I was, the calmer he was."
Whether Greene was awarded for her grace under pressure or her general all-around performance, for Appleba, the award symbolizes something he has always touted — that Greene is the best.
"We have great dispatchers in the Tennessee Highway Patrol," he said. "I'm not being biased due to the fact that Anne was on duty that night. I've always said it; she's the best dispatcher the highway patrol has ever had."comments powered by Disqus

The point itself is well-made, and Bermuda has covered it nicely. There are many aspects of drum sound control that affect different points in the room. The first time I heard a Yamaha MCA (just after they came out) I heard it with factory heads from maybe 10-15m away, played by Ralph Salmins. It sounded *phenomenal*. Then I played it, later in the day. From behind the kit it just sounded absolutely nasty. A few days later (this was a school kit) I got to go through the same process (watch from in front, then play) after the heads had been switched out to Evans G2s. The sound had reversed - the sound that I was hearing from the back of the room with the stock single-ply heads was now happening behind the kit, but from out front the drums had no tone and sounded bangy and frankly rather naff.
So if you're recording in a high-quality room and have plenty of time to play with room mic positioning and phase then you're likely to be able to do a lot more with a wide-open sound, taking much of your recorded sound from further back in the room. But if you're recording in a cheap project studio and have to live with the close-mic sound then you may well be much better off muffing a bit to boost the tone of the drum in relation to the overtones.
I think the initial statement could be turned around to refine its accuracy a bit, though:
"The less muffling you see on a kit the more likely it is to be being played by an experienced drummer"
That doesn't mean that a muffled kit disqualifies anybody from the "Experienced drummer" class, it just means that the majority of people you see playing wide-open kits are people who have had some time to learn to play and tune them so they don't sound bad.

Chinese company seeks to buy Port St. Lucie's City Center
PORT ST. LUCIE — The financially troubled City Center, a proposed more than $100 million retail and entertainment complex to eventually become the city's downtown, has attracted a buyer from China.
U.S. Investments LLC, a Delaware company formed in 2008 and registered in China, has entered into a June 7 contract with PSL City Center LLC to purchase the privately held properties that comprise City Center, according to a June 16 letter from George de Guardiola, a managing member of PSL City Center, to Assistant City Manager Greg Oravec.
Under PSL City Center's development agreement with the city and the Community Redevelopment Agency, de Guardiola must seek approval from the CRA board and the City Council to sell the property. The sale will be discussed Monday during the 2 p.m. CRA board and City Council meetings at City Hall.
The city has 15 days to deny the sale in writing. Otherwise, the sale is automatically approved, according to the development agreement.
This would be U.S. Investment's first project in the United States, said Karen Mentor, the Hobe Sound attorney representing the company and its managing member, Lily Zhong. A development team of six members, including Zhong, have collectively and individually worked on large-scale development projects both privately and in partnership with government agencies in China and overseas, Mentor said.
The company hopes to retain the services of de Guardiola on a consulting basis and as a go-between with the city, Mentor said.
De Guardiola said Thursday that at this point, he doesn't know whether he will have a role in the project. He said right now he's concentrating on a quick closing, which is scheduled in August.
The vacant property, comprised of 21 acres on the southeast corner of South U.S. 1 and Walton Road, is in foreclosure and is scheduled to be auctioned off at the courthouse at 11 a.m. Dec. 1, if an investor isn't found to take over the project.
National City Bank, now PNC Bank, is seeking to foreclose on the property for $32.2 million.
"The interest is a positive development, and it would be preferable to see a willing buyer with a willing seller rather than the foreclosure action and an auction being completed in December," Oravec said. "The full details of the proposal haven't been submitted yet. At this point, it's a positive development, but would be premature to make a declaration."
Because of the weak economy, de Guardiola had been unable to attract investors. De Guardiola said Thursday the bank has approved the sale with U.S. Investments, but declined to specify the purchase price. He said the bank is requiring U.S. Investments to pay "a huge amount of money" to purchase the project in cash. There won't be any financing, he said.
"I've been working with them since December," de Guardiola said. "They're good people. Straightforward and honest. I think I've been looking for the better part of three years to make a commitment to the project. They are definitely the best-qualified group to purchase the project from the bank and complete the project. No one in today's economy would step up to the plate and plunk down the kind of money they are willing to put down if they weren't going to go forward."
PSL City Center's development agreement obligates it to pay $1 million to the city for the construction of the now completed Civic Center. The company, so far, has contributed $500,000. A payment of $250,000 is outstanding and the remaining $250,000 is due to the city by Aug. 1, Oravec said. The buyer would be required to pay the remaining balance, de Guardiola said.
Mentor said she could not say how much the company plans on investing in City Center or whether it would fully honor PSL City Center's agreement with the city.
"We understand that there are certain obligations that need to be met," Mentor said. "We certainly need to discuss timelines with (the city). We are sort of in an early stage and some cards are being kept to our vest."
Under the terms of a 2005 redevelopment agreement with the city and the CRA, de Guardiola had until December 2009 to deliver the first of four privately built phases of City Center, including a hotel, movie theater, retail shops, restaurants, homes and several thousand square feet of office and retail space.
The deal going through will depend on U.S. Investments getting the creation of a limited partnership approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, Mentor said. The limited partnership, made up of wealthy overseas investors, would finance the project.
To receive approval from the agency, an applicant must demonstrate that the partnership would create at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers for each foreign investor of $500,000 or $1 million, Mentor said.
"We're creating a vehicle for potential investors to come in and get their green card status," Mentor said.
Investors would be eligible for permanent residence in the United States after a conditional period and assuming other requirements have been met, Mentor said.
"The interest in Florida is obviously that there's a lot of bargains to be had in the real estate market," Mentor said. "It's a tourist state and it has good year-round climate."
City Center's public/private partnership with the city and the infrastructure, such as the Civic Center and parking garage that's already in place, also is appealing to U.S. Investments, Mentor said.
"I think the general concept is one that's very attractive," Mentor said.

As student loan debt reaches unprecedented highs, UND's new Financial Wellness program is using students to teach students ways to manage that debt.
Starting Feb. 1, students can be matched with peers who help them create spending plans, learn about their credit scores and find ways to pay for college.
"There are some sound, savvy students on this campus that have investment portfolios that would make 50-year-olds blush," said Laurie Betting, associate vice president for health and wellness. "We want to share that knowledge with all students."
Only 10 percent of campuses nationwide report offering similar programs. Yet, as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau reports, student debt is mounting nationwide, reaching the $1 trillion mark this year.

The greatest thing since sliced bread
First sold in 1928, sliced bread has made its way into homes worldwide due to the convenience factor that sandwiches were quicker to make and you could pop in a slice of bread into a toaster with ease to make toast. This great invention aside, there is nothing more satisfying than pulling out a fresh baked loaf of bread from the oven that you had just spent the past 5+ hours of putting your back into kneading, waiting for the yeast to rise, only for it to deflate and then rise again; yes the process can be grueling but we can't emphasize enough the satisfaction you'll feel and not to mention an incomparably delicious loaf of bread your taste buds will thank you for.
After the bread baking process comes the best part, the bread enjoying process. With this loaf you can use a bread slicer to divide it up into individual slices, or you can eat it how the French do, simply tearing off pieces with your hands.
However, there's no denying the convenience of utensils that slice food. They also help with display presentation, such as mandoline slicers, which cut vegetables into long thing strips. And do not fear, even non-professional and casual cooks use this handy tool, great for a stir fry where each slice will cook in the about the same amount of time since the slices are all the same thickness, which you typically wouldn't have if cutting the vegetables yourself.
For more information on a breakdown comparison between whether it makes more sense for you to use a slicer or a knife, be sure to check out our earlier post, "Home bread slicer vs. Knives". Also if you are a bread lover yourself, or know someone who is, our post "Bread accessories for the bread lover" has a lot of information about different bread making and consuming tools.

HOLLYWOOD — As a crane lifted the cypress posts and trusses into place Thursday morning, Moyer Fountain of Fountain Timberworks experienced what he called "a moment of truth."
Would the massive timbers that he spent four months laying out and cutting fit together like they were supposed to?
"That's the fun part," he said as Stono Ferry's new open-air pavilion gradually took shape. "If that doesn't fit, you're behind the eight ball."
By noon, crews had fit together all but one truss, several smaller pieces and the cupola on top.
"We're looking good," Fountain said. "I'm pleased with it."
Timber framing — fitting together large pieces of wood and securing them with wooden pegs — has been done since the Stone Age, but the craft has largely faded in this modern era of inexpensive two-by-fours and do-it-yourself projects.
So Thursday's timber-raising ceremony was a bit of a throwback. The only modern elements included a crane, a few metal pins to add additional wind resistance, and a small, remote-controlled helicopter camera that captured the work in progress.
The Stono Ferry Plantation neighborhood opted for the old-school structure in part because design chair Diane O'Brien favored it.
"It made sense to me to put in a legacy building that will be here forever, not to do something with modern materials that won't hold up over time," she said.
The 2,000-square-foot pavilion took shape during daylight Thursday, and the finishing touches on the almost $500,000 project are expected to be done by Oct. 31 — just before the Charleston Cup Steeplechase on Nov. 10.
The project is a collaboration between Fountain Timberworks, Archer Construction and the Building Art, LLC, a company founded by John Paul Huguley.
Huguley, who also founded the American College of the Building Arts, said the new company is designed to put the college's graduates, such as Fountain, to work in their specialty areas.
He said traditional craftsmanship can add lasting value to a building project, and people shouldn't get scared off because of a higher price tag.
"People assume to do it right costs more," he said. "It costs a ... lot more to do it wrong."
As workers carefully fitted together the trusses, timbers and pegs, a few dozen people watched quietly from a nearby swimming pool deck.
O'Brien was among the onlookers who wrote a message on a wooden peg just moments before it was hammered into place.
Asked what she wrote, she said, "God bless this building."

The Post Falls (Idaho) School District's learning opportunities have been boosted by two technology-related grants totaling nearly $200,000, including a $150,000 grant from the Idaho State Department Education to hire two curriculum and technology integration specialists.

At what Chairman Dave Allegretto called the group's "favorite" event of the year, the Ocean City (Md.) Education Foundation gave away $17,822 in educational grants on Friday. Awards covered all three Ocean City schools — ranging from a new dance floor for the dance fitness program in the high school's successful School Choice program to a new scoreboard for use in Intermediate School and community athletic events and classes to laptop computers for use by first-graders at the Primary School.
Nearly three years ago, San Francisco's Everett Middle School was labeled one of the worst schools not only in the state, but in the country. It was a run-down school with low test scores and teachers who didn't come back after summer break. Technology was sparse, as were books, and too few parents wanted to send their kids there. But with the lowest-of-the-low label came money. Lots of money.
Requirements tied to federal Race to the Top education grants have become more work than the money is worth, some Ohio school districts say.
Sharon Contreras today spoke out against a portion of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's school aid plan that requires districts to submit grants for funding.
Neil Armstrong Middle School, in Forest Grove, Ore., has won a $25,000 grant from the Department of Education for its after-school technology program.
With some major names behind it as funders and advisors, the new nonprofit inBloom aims "to make personalized learning a reality for every U.S. student by improving the effectiveness, variety, and affordability of education technology."
The American Association of School Administrators (AASA) today announced a new two-year, multimillion dollar grant from the Walmart Foundation to expand the number of districts who serve already eligible children breakfast at school.
West Milford's Macopin Middle School in North New Jersey was one of just nine schools to receive an award through Optimum Lightpath's $75,000 Transforming Education with Technology Grant program for 2012-2013.
The Rapides Parish School District will put a $300,000 state grant to work to improve literacy in six middle schools this year.

In 1992, McFarlane co-founded the independent publishing company Image Comics, and introduced Spawn. Issue #1 sold 1.7 million copies, an unprecedented and unmatched independent comic book feat. Today, Spawn is still one of the best-selling comic titles in the U.S., and is published in more than 120 countries and 16 languages. TMP also produces Spawn: The Dark Ages, Sam and Twitch and Hellspawn.
McFarlane Toys is the fifth-largest action figure manufacturer in the industry. The company produces the award-winning Spawn action figures, plus many other pop culture, horror and professional sports icons from movies, music, comic books and video games. McFarlane Toys has produced figures of KISS, Beatles Yellow Submarine, Austin Powers, Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper, Where the Wild Things Are, Shaft, Akira, Freddy Krueger, Jason, NHLPA and more.
TME develops and produces animated television, feature films, music videos and electronic gaming projects. McFarlane is currently developing the New Line sequel to 1997's $100 million-grossing film, Spawn. He is the executive producer of Todd McFarlane's Spawn, the two-time Emmy winning animated series that began in 1997. He created and produced animation sequences for Jodie Foster's film The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys.
Todd is a passionate sports enthusiast and player who owns The McFarlane Collection, which contains 10 historic baseballs from the 1998 Mark McGwire-Sammy Sosa home run race. It showcases McGwire's 70th and Sosa's 66th home run balls, plus memorabilia from all the home run heroes of the 20th century. McFarlane is also part-owner of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers.
Born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, in 1961, McFarlane began drawing comic book heroes in high school. After more than 700 rejection letters, McFarlane accepted a pencilling assignment from Marvel/Epic Comics. He worked his way to the top of Marvel's talent roster, where he wrote, pencilled and inked Spider-man. His first issue sold more than 2.5 million copies -- the best-selling comic book of all time. Following this success, McFarlane left Marvel in August 1991, which led to the formation of Image Comics.

CRESTVIEW — Gulf Power Company has enacted an economic development plan that prepares large sites for business growth and expansion.
Potential industrial sites will be submitted to McCallum Sweeney Consulting, which will evaluate the proposals, make site preparation recommendations and then certify the site once improvements have been made.
The utility is paying for program design costs and will pay one-half of consultant costs for publicly owned parcels submitted by cities or counties. Consultant fees are about $20,000 per site. Private developers can participate, but must pay the whole consultant fee.
The utility will not pay for site improvements.
Sites must be at least 50 acres and within the utility's service territory to qualify for the program.
Certification can bring peace of mind to businesses that know permitting, drainage work, engineering for utilities and other vital steps have been handled, a Gulf Power spokesperson said.

Sometimes things just happen. Numerous e-mails are sent as CC daily. I think it's a good way to stay informed. Usually, 'quick delete' is the only reaction required.
I almost dealt with a customer's request like that which was sent from one of our partner wineries, and which I received in CC.
Knowing that our partnership with this particular winery had just started and the wine hadn't even been shipped yet and, at the same time, reading that this request required shipping within three days of an undefined amount of bottles, this was a typical CC e-mail that just wanted to be deleted. The main addressee from customer service would regrettably have to cancel.
But, sometimes things just happen. And this time, something clicked with this e-mail – the composition of the e-mail address and the name in it seemed rather familiar. A quick Google search was sufficient – it was Tuesday night – and the prospective buyer was identified as one of the most successful German Internet entrepreneurs.
Of course, we do almost anything for our customers, but there are cases when the incentive is a bit larger
With a quick e-mail, I introduced myself and one, two e-mails later the desired wine and amount were agreed on – I promised to try my best to find a solution, knowing that my chance of success was little, but it was worth a try.
The clock was ticking, as the wines were supposed to be at the other end of Germany on Friday afternoon, so they could be served at a little party on Saturday – well-tempered, of course.
The next e-mails went to the manager of our partner winery. It quickly became apparent the German shop importer couldn't help due to a lack of stock. The only hope: a Dutch specialist shop chain, which stocked the desired wine.
Wednesday morning was all about numerous amusing telephone calls with the sales manager on the Dutch side. Pragmatic and flexible, 60 bottles were entered into the route schedule and were ready to be picked up in the chain's shop in Venlo the next morning.
The following morning, my way to work diverted me 60km to Venlo with a nice bit of cash – I can't remember ever having pushed a shopping cart out of a shopping mall with 60 bottles of wine in it!
Arrived at the warehouse, we skipped the stocking. The bottles were directly re-packed and left us the same afternoon with express delivery to a happy customer.
I don't want to deny – a great feeling!
n time and early enough to bring them to the right temperature, they arrived at their destination on Friday.
For me, this little anecdote is what I understand as an example of excellent customer service. Excellent wines as well as loyal customers deserve nothing better.
Of course, in this case the name and the challenge were an incentive – similar to the order members of the DAX executive board place with us, more on that on this place soon – but I stay true to what I said, to the smallest detail, we always do the best we can to make our customers happy. Nothing is more important than that.
I'm happy to take a little ticking-off from the financial department for the Dutch receipt

Designed by James Braid, five time Open winner and architect of some of the finest golf courses in the UK and beyond, Herne Bay is a quaint, picturesque parkland links course set in the beautiful Kentish countryside. Over its eighteen holes, it stretches for 5567 yards - by no means the biggest course in the county, but its strategically placed hazards make it no less challenging than any other, with tests that have thrown many a low handicapper in the past, so perhaps make full use of its practice green before setting out on the course.
It warmly welcomes visitors during the week for the reasonable price of £18, and for an extra £10, anyone with a handicap certificate may play there after noon at weekends.

A sampling of political ads on teevee
July 30, 2014 - Harry Eagar
A sampling of political ads
I don't own a TV so I don't usually see political ads, but this week I saw several. Not all getting on air, I am sure, but a complete rotation during a news hour.
No attack ads but equally, with the exception of one candidate, Brian Schatz, no issue ads either.
The gubernatorial ads for Ige and Abercrombie were bland and forgettable.
Colleen Hanabusa's senatorial ad was very subtly done. Depending upon how you interpret the dog whistle, it was, at best, a veiled appeal to maintain the political style of the Revolution of '54; at worst, a racist appeal to localism.
If I am wrong, and no dog whistle was intended, then it was a waste of money, because otherwise it was as empty of content as it could be.
Schatz's issues were uncontroversial enough: for Social Security, for background checks for gun buyers (not really a hot local item) and for environmental protection (although Hanabusa has criticized him for voting for a pale green environmental bill that allegedly exempts HC&S' boilers, while she voted against it).
I am of two minds about issue ads on TV. On the plus side, they are at least better than the anodyne "aren't I cute?" ads that are usual. On the minus side, as Schatz' attempt shows, a claim to be "for the environment" needs some explication. (I got it by reading The Maui News; that is a good way to be an informed voter, although I will not be voting in the primary.)
One ad, though, shocked me and is the reason for this post. I wouldn't have taken your time to note that Governor Abercrombie -- aka "Mr. Excitement" -- runs boring ads.
Congressional candidate Mark Takai had a poorly produced ad (with a voiceover so hurried I missed most of it) that opened with old news footage of the 442nd RCT and some gabble about Mark Takai in the tradition of the 442nd. Funny, I don't recall that Takai rushed any machine gun nests in Italy.
It's a bold, and disgusting, ploy for the 47-year-old Takai to claim the mantle of the 442nd, which laid down its weapons 69 years ago.
(A cursory search finds a Chad Blair report from February which said Takai would be citing his military service, which he does as a "veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom" although he never got to Iraq.)
I don't know anything against Takai but I find his commercial repellant.
Last note: Shan Tsutsui has an unintentionally funny ad for his run for the do-nothing job of lieutenant governor featuring do-nothing-much retired senator Dan Akaka saying Tsutsui "reminds me of me." I saw that one three times and laughed harder at each viewing.

"Corrupt government like Mexico and America aids this."
Correction: like Mexico and Philippines. Maybe America is just as corrupt.
Aug-01-14 11:58 PM
Many Americans of Filipino ancestory in Hawaii want benefits from their parents aid in Philippines against Japanese attack. Many American Filipinos flew to Philippines not to aid America but to protect their homeland of which they are Citizens. I assume Filipinos are trying to get a free ticket to benefits of an American citizen. Many did not fight in recent wars but still hang on to those who did in World War II. I feel that Filipinos kicked out America but still want to hide under this security blanket. Corrupt government like Mexico and America aids this. Allowing them to come to Hawaii and work. Recent Hose Vargas should be bailed out by Philippine Government and not America.
In this comment, I am saying that there is bad in all races.

I enjoy TV since many books are made into Classics on Turner Classic movies. I miss Classic comic rather than books. I used to do homework with Classics.
Only when required to read books like 1984 and others that it only now sinks in to what the real meaning of a good book does. TV gives me visual of a book that I don't understand. Computers answers question as fast as I can ask them.
Jul-31-14 8:28 PM
442 opened the door for many Americans of Japanese ancestory. I too find it repellant since I am Sansei. I joined the military and was fortunate not to see combat. Takai is probably Yonsei or Fourth Generation American Japanese. That generation only believes in amount of likes and popularity by amount of followers on tweeter.
Be surprised if schatz has a hand in Keystone Pipeline. Wait for it.

"Aren't I cute?"

Krugman sparked a rally on Wall Street earlier this month after speaking at the London School of Economics.
"I would not be surprised if the official end of the U.S. recession ends up being, in retrospect, dated sometime this summer," he said June 8 during a lecture in London.
However, Krugman argues people didn't listen to his entire speech, which included dire predictions about lingering unemployment.
"There's a big difference between the end of a recession, which is really only when some things start to turn up, and the return to prosperity," Krugman told ABC News. "I think what people don't get is the difference between the end of a recession in a technical sense and actual recovery, which matters to people."
Some economists dismiss Krugman's calls for more government spending to stimulate the economy.
"His views about the impact of government spending on the economy are very different than those held by the majority of economists who are currently doing research on this topic," said UCLA economic professor Lee Ohanian, who argues the focus should be on reforming the banking system.
Particularly troubling, Ohanian said, is Krugman's focus on Keynesian economics, which focuses on public sector policies to stabilize the economy.
"A lot of what I see in his columns and in his blog is using economics from 70 years ago," Ohanian said," He likes to cite Keynes and we stopped teaching Keynes decades ago because like every other science, economics moves forward."
Krugman admits he is doing little research these days, preferring instead to hold Washington accountable through his blog and column for what he sees as misguided public policies.
His most fervent fans say his biggest strength is in translating complex ideas into simple and entertainingly pointed prose.
"He is incredibly good at boiling complex problems down to the simplest terms and explaining them clearly," said Maurice Obstfeld, economics professor at the University of California at Berkeley.
Krugman recently accused 212 members of the House of Representatives, who voted against the administration's climate change bill of 'betraying the planet" and engaging in "a form of treason."
He's also derided the president for not pushing hard enough for a large public option for health care reform.
"We knew that the health care plan was not going to be a reformer's ideal," Krugman said. "What we don't know is how far it will stray from the reform ideal. And I'm not saying it has to be perfect."
The biggest question, Krugman said, is whether the Obama administration will "back down" at crucial moments.
"People like me are trying to hold their feet to the fire," Krugman said.
He rails against arguments made by conservatives, like former Reagan speechwriter and Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan, that the Obama administration's multiple-pronged agenda is moving too fast for the public.
"Paul, if you just limit this conversation to taxes alone, you have some sense that people, normal humans in America, might be getting a little bit nervous about health care and energy care and all of this stuff," Noonan argued on "This Week" Sunday.

This deposition excerpt was submitted by Kristine Arlitt of San Antonio (Kristine practices with Christopher J. Weber).
The deposition was taken in Kerrville in the case of Castlecomb Homeowners Association v. Hexagon Honeycomb Corp.
In response to Kristine's question regarding the terms in a Declaration
of Restrictive Covenant burdening the Castlecomb subdivision in
Kerrville, the deponent read directly from the declaration:
Q. (By Ms. Arlitt): Just tell the jury how it varies. I mean, it's a long thing to read.
It says ... It has to be permanently affixed to piers or a foundation,
have any wheels or axles in the delivery removed, skirted - which mobile
homes are skirted or enclosed - shall have a roof pitch of
three-twelfths or greater; and 5, shall meet or exceed the standards
imposed by blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah which is all the codes so that he can move those particular types of homes in.
Q. Now, the "blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah," those are the laws of the State of Texas; is that correct?
Mr. Maguire: Objection, form.
A. Yeah.
Kristine notes: "So much for giving laws of the State of Texas and accompanying regulations much credit or respect!"
