Google is not only the number one search engine in the world, it is also the number one website in the world. Only five percent of site visitors search past the first page of Google, so if you're not in those top 10 results, you are essentially invisible. Winning the Game of Googleopoly is the ultimate roadmap to Page One Domination. The POD strategy is what gets you on that super-critical first page of Google results by increasing your page views.
Every day there are moments when you must persuade, inform, and motivate others effectively.

Every interaction is a performance, whether you're speaking up in a meeting, pitching a client, or walking into a job interview.
Millions of people around the world have improved their lives through the timeless advice David Schwartz offers in The Magic of Thinking Big.

A leading behavioral economist shows how businesses can improve consumer thinking and decision-making on screens. The typical American office worker now spends the majority of his or her waking hours staring at a screen. In the 21st century, every business is a digital business, which is why it's so critical to understand how we think and behave online. Acclaimed behavioral economist Shlomo Benartzi reveals a toolkit of interventions for the digital age. Using provocative case-studies and engaging exercises, Benartzi shows how businesses can update their nudges to help consumers make better decisions on screens.
This chapter-level audiobook can change the way you listen to BigShots - mostly businesspersons with a snapshot or two of politicians - as they pontificate for public consumption and personal gain. You'll recognize the spin, that dastardly polite euphemism for lies that the advertising/PR folks coined years ago to anoint their profession with a bit of undeserved dignity. In the process, you might gain a more realistic grasp of what's going on around you and how your mind is being manipulated, aka brainwashed.

In his new audiobook, The Heart-Led Leader, Spaulding turns his focus to ourselves - to who we are. Authentic leaders, Spaulding says, live and lead from the heart. The values and principles that guide our lives and shape our ability to lead others is far more important than our titles or our ability to crunch numbers or the impressive degrees we display on our walls. To effect true transformational change, heart-led leaders draw on the qualities of humility, vulnerability, transparency, empathy, and love.
Wired Differently shares the compelling story of National Information Solutions Cooperative (NISC), a nearly 50-year-old technology business built on the cooperative model. NISC started out providing software and IT services for three rural cooperatives a half-century ago and has grown to 14 million end users in 49 US states or territories, and in Canada. Here is an organization where cooperative principles blend with leading-edge technologies to exceed expectations repeatedly....
The Mises Institute is pleased to introduce Walter Block's remarkable new treatise on private roads that'll cause you to rethink the whole of the way modern transportation networks operate. It's bold, innovative, radical, and compelling and shows how free-market economic theory is the clarifying lens through which to see the failures of the state and see the alternative that's consistent with human liberty.
PROMOTE! is about you. It is about getting the promotion, the raise, and potentially keeping your job in the age of downsizing. PROMOTE! is about having the knowledge and confidence to directly address your accomplishments with those who control your destiny on the job: your supervisors.
Business today is global - and success requires a new set of skills. But not to worry, whether you're negotiating with vendors in Asia, exploring potential markets in Africa, or leading a diverse team at home, you don't have to master the nuances of every culture you encounter. With cultural intelligence, or CQ, you can lead effectively in any context.
In Million Dollar Women, Pimsleur introduces you to seven women who, instead of leaning in, simply left corporate America and marched into the world of entrepreneurship. They have raised capital, developed powerful networks, and generated multimillion-dollar companies from scratch.

Facebook is without a doubt the most popular website that has ever existed. It has provided a way to connect with other people in ways that we once deemed impossible.

My goal in writing this book was to compile 20 tips that will allow people to be able to retire to working from home through this social media giant.
Etsy has successfully brought craft fairs to the people of the online world, and they have shaken the image of handmade items from "that will do" items to hot-ticket, best-selling, and hugely desirable products. Just because this platform exists, though, doesn't mean that getting to the top of it is as easy as having a great product and putting it into a search engine. With this audiobook, you will be told how to set yourself up on Etsy for success and how to create a growing income from your boutique items.
Another leadership book to add to the amalgam collecting dust on the shelf? Not even close!
We struggle to manage complexity every day. We follow intricate diets to lose weight, juggle multiple remotes to operate our home entertainment systems, face proliferating data at the office, and hack through thickets of regulation at tax time. But complexity isn't destiny. Sull and Eisenhardt argue there's a better way: by developing a few simple yet effective rules, you can tackle even the most complex problems.
"It's always good to be reminded that simple is key"
You can go after the job you want...and get it! You can take the job you have...and improve it! You can take any situation you're in...and make it work for you!
"This is well worth listening too! Main points are."
Stephen R. Covey's book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, has been a top seller for the simple reason that it ignores trends and pop psychology for proven principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity. Celebrating its 15th year of helping people solve personal and professional problems, this special anniversary edition includes a new forward and afterword written by Covey that explore whether the 7 Habits are still relevant.
"A true guide for life"
When it comes to delivering a pitch, Oren Klaff has unparalleled credentials. Over the past 13 years, he has used his one-of-a-kind method to raise more than $400 million - and now, for the first time, he describes his formula to help you deliver a winning pitch in any business situation. Whether you're selling ideas to investors, pitching a client for new business, or even negotiating for a higher salary, Pitch Anything will transform the way you position your ideas. According to Klaff, creating and presenting a great pitch isn't an art - it's a simple science.
"A Refreshing New Way of Doing Business"
Think and Grow Rich is the number-one inspirational and motivational classic for individuals who are interested in furthering their lives and reaching their goals by learning from important figures in history. The text read in this audiobook is the original 1937 edition written by Napoleon Hill and inspired by Andrew Carnegie - and while it has often been reproduced, no updated version has ever been able to compete with the original.
"It's a must."
By the man who helped invent the red-hot management process known as "Scrum", Scrum unveils what is wrong with the way we currently do work, and how a simple set of principles, applied in exactly the right sequence, can accelerate productivity and quality as much as 1200 percent. Scrum (which gets its name from the formation in rugby in which the whole team locks its arms to gain control of the ball) is the reason that Amazon can launch a new feature on its website every day.
Tony Robbins has coached and inspired more than 50 million people from over 100 countries. More than four million people have attended his live events. Oprah Winfrey calls him "super-human". Now for the first time - in his first book in two decades - he's turned to the topic that vexes us all: How to secure financial freedom for ourselves and our families.
"Get to the point Tony"
Robert Kiyosaki has challenged and changed the way tens of millions of people around the world think about money. With perspectives that often contradict conventional wisdom, Robert has earned a reputation for straight talk, irreverence and courage. He is regarded worldwide as a passionate advocate for financial education. According to Kiyosaki, "The main reason people struggle financially is because they have spent years in school but learned nothing about money."
"Great Book - Bad Narrator"
Peter Voogd, who has been labeled the leading authority for Gen Y leadership, reveals the exact strategies he's used to go from dead broke to over six figures within six months. Peter has trained over 4,000 entrepreneurs, and built an eight-million-dollar sales organization by age 27. If you're one of the select few who are serious about success, this book will change the game for you, regardless of what industry you're in.
"Not much different from others like it..."
Everyone would benefit from seeing further into the future, whether buying stocks, crafting policy, launching a new product, or simply planning the week's meals. Unfortunately, people tend to be terrible forecasters. As Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed in a landmark 2005 study, even experts' predictions are only slightly better than chance. However, an important and underreported conclusion of that study was that some experts do have real foresight.
"Very useful points"
The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won't make a search engine. And the next Mark Zuckerberg won't create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren't learning from them. It's easier to copy a model than to make something new: doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But every time we create something new, we go from 0 to 1.
"Awesome Content. Hard to listen to."
Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their successes over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why.
"Inspire to find why you do what you do"
Creativity, Inc. is a book for managers who want to lead their employees to new heights, a manual for anyone who strives for originality, and the first-ever, all-access trip into the nerve center of Pixar Animation - into the meetings, postmortems, and "Braintrust" sessions where some of the most successful films in history are made. It is, at heart, a book about how to build a creative culture - but it is also, as Pixar co-founder and president Ed Catmull writes, "an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible."
"Bought the instant I saw it."
Built To Last, the defining management study of the 90s, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. But what about companies that are not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness?
"Stick it out even if you don't run a large company"
What does it take to reach success in business - the kind of success that lasts? How do you set yourself apart from competitors or venture out into different markets? What does it take to develop streamlined processes, become a stronger team leader, and work your way up the corporate ladder?
"as good as any MBA program offerings."
Widely used in classes, as well as sold to people operating successfully in the business world, the eagerly awaited revision of Influence reminds the listener of the power of persuasion. Cialdini organizes compliance techniques into six categories based on psychological principles that direct human behavior: reciprocation, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity.
"This book will change the way you see the world."
Sheryl Sandberg - Facebook COO, ranked eighth on Fortune's list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business - has become one of America's most galvanizing leaders, and an icon for millions of women juggling work and family. In Lean In, she urges women to take risks and seek new challenges, to find work that they love, and to remain passionately engaged with it at the highest levels throughout their lives.
"Lean In, Lead On"
This is an audiobook for busy people. If you want less on your plate and more for your life and career, tune in to the #1 Wall Street Journal best seller, The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results. The ONE Thing will bring your life and your work into focus. Authors Gary Keller and Jay Papasan teach you the tricks to cut through the clutter, achieve better results in less time, dial down stress, and master what matters to you.
""The one most ridiculous book" a waste of time."
Meet Emily and Paul: The parents of two young children, Emily is the newly promoted VP of marketing at a large corporation while Paul works from home or from clients' offices as an independent IT consultant. Their lives, like all of ours, are filled with a bewildering blizzard of emails, phone calls, yet more emails, meetings, projects, proposals, and plans. Just staying ahead of the storm has become a seemingly insurmountable task.
"An amazing insight to the brain"
Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.
"A great read!"
In the spirit of Steve Jobs and Moneyball, Elon Musk is both an illuminating and authorized look at the extraordinary life of one of Silicon Valley's most exciting, unpredictable, and ambitious entrepreneurs - a real-life Tony Stark - and a fascinating exploration of the renewal of American invention and its new makers.
"Interesting and Informative"
A New York Times technology and business reporter charts the dramatic rise of Bitcoin and the fascinating personalities who are striving to create a new global money for the Internet age.
In a world of self-driving cars and big data, smart algorithms and Siri, we know that artificial intelligence is getting smarter every day. Though all these nifty devices and programs might make our lives easier, they're also well on their way to making "good" jobs obsolete. A computer winning Jeopardy might seem like a trivial, if impressive, feat, but the same technology is making paralegals redundant as it undertakes electronic discovery, and is soon to do the same for radiologists.
"Great content and this mechanization IS coming!"
Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans - predictable, error-prone individuals. Misbehaving is his arresting, frequently hilarious account of the struggle to bring an academic discipline back down to earth - and change the way we think about economics, ourselves, and our world.
"A Wiinner: A Case for Misbehaving"
Wagner and Martin Weitzman explore in lively, clear terms the likely repercussions of a hotter planet, drawing on and expanding from work previously unavailable to general audiences. They show that the longer we wait to act, the more likely an extreme event will happen. A city might go underwater.
"Stringent, credible and worrying"
How Music Got Free is a riveting story of obsession, music, crime, and money, featuring visionaries and criminals, moguls and tech-savvy teenagers. It's about the greatest pirate in history, the most powerful executive in the music business, a revolutionary invention, and an illegal website four times the size of the iTunes music store.
"A history of the MP3 and Online Music"
A worldwide race is on to perfect the next engine of economic growth, the advanced lithium-ion battery. It will power the electric car, relieve global warming, and catapult the winner into a new era of economic and political mastery. Can the United States win? Steve LeVine was granted unprecedented access to a secret federal laboratory outside Chicago, where a group of geniuses is trying to solve this next monumental task of physics. But these scientists - almost all foreign born - are not alone.
"Nitty Gritty Battery Story"
Losing the Signal is a riveting story of a company that toppled global giants before succumbing to the ruthlessly competitive forces of Silicon Valley. This is not a conventional tale of modern business failure by fraud and greed. The rise and fall of BlackBerry reveals the dangerous speed at which innovators race along the information superhighway.
"The problem of staying ahead of the curve"
What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories.
"The Financial Times' Critique Doesn't Detract"
Using the greatest material from his popular Blog Maverick, Cuban has collected and updated his postings on business and life to provide a catalog of insider knowledge on what it takes to become a thriving entrepreneur. He tells his own rags-to-riches story of how he went from selling powdered milk and sleeping on friends' couches to owning his own company and becoming a multibillion-dollar success story.

We've combed through hundreds of Harvard Business Review articles to select the most important ones to help you maximize yourself.
Do you have a grip on your business, or does your business have a grip on you? All entrepreneurs and business leaders face similar frustrations: personnel conflict, profit woes, and inadequate growth. Decisions never seem to get made, or once made, fail to be properly implemented. But there is a solution. It's not complicated or theoretical.
"Best business & culture building book I've ever read."
In business, performance is key. In performance, how you organize can be the key to growth. In the past five years, the business world has seen the birth of a new breed of company - the Exponential Organization - that has revolutionized how a company can accelerate its growth by using technology.
"Schlock, Read Weirdly"
In his defining work on emotional intelligence, best-selling author Daniel Goleman found that it is twice as important as other competencies in determining outstanding leadership. If you listen to nothing else on emotional intelligence, listen to these 10 articles by experts in the field. We've combed through hundreds of articles in the Harvard Business Review archive and selected the most important ones to help you boost your emotional skills - and your professional success.
"Mostly non-actionable unenlightening anecdotes"
If you listen to nothing else on leadership, you should at least hear these 10 articles (featuring "What Makes an Effective Executive", by Peter F. Drucker). We've combed through hundreds of Harvard Business Review articles on leadership and selected the most important ones to help you maximize your own and your organization's performance.
The Sales Acceleration Formula provides a scalable, predictable approach to growing revenue and building a winning sales team. Everyone wants to build the next $100 million business, and author Mark Roberge has actually done it using a unique methodology that he shares with his listeners. As an MIT alum with an engineering background, Roberge challenged the conventional methods of scaling sales utilizing the metrics-driven, process-oriented lens through which he was trained to see the world.
"Mind opening content."
Is your company spending too much time on strategy development - with too little to show for it? you listen to nothing else on strategy, you should at least hear these 10 articles.
Everyone likes the idea of turning the ugliest house on the block into the best house on the block and making a profit. Until now a system has not been shared on how to successfully complete this task on time and budget without getting your hands dirty. This audiobook not only cracks the code but shares the proven path and system to have a systems-based rehab business that makes consistent profits for ordinary, everyday people.
"A real bible in Rehab investing"
Few companies in history have ever been as successful and as admired as Google, the company that has transformed the Internet and become an indispensable part of our lives. How has Google done it? Veteran technology reporter Steven Levy was granted unprecedented access to the company, and in this revelatory book he takes listeners inside Google headquarters - the Googleplex - to explain how Google works.
"Clever, honest, and even inspiring"
In this groundbreaking book, journalist and innovation expert Warren Berger shows that one of the most powerful forces for igniting change in business and in our daily lives is a simple, underappreciated tool - one that has been available to us since childhood. Questioning - deeply, imaginatively, "beautifully" - can help us identify and solve problems, come up with game-changing ideas, and pursue fresh opportunities. So why are we often reluctant to ask "Why?"
"The perfect way to not sound smarter but be smart"
Visionaries have groundbreaking ideas. Integrators make those ideas realities. This explosive combination is the key to getting everything you want out of your business. It worked for Disney. It worked for McDonald's. It worked for Ford. It can work for you. From the author of the best-selling Traction, Rocket Fuel details the integral roles of the visionary and integrator and explains how an effective relationship between the two can help your business thrive.
"Excellent content"
New from the best-selling HBR's 10 Must Reads series. Stop pushing products - and start cultivating relationships with the right customers. If you listen to nothing else on marketing that delivers competitive advantage, hear these 10 articles. We've combed through hundreds of articles in the Harvard Business Review archive and selected the most important ones to help you reinvent your marketing by putting it - and your customers - at the center of your business.
Over the past three years, the notorious @GSElevator Twitter feed has offered a hilarious, shamelessly voyeuristic look into the real world of international finance. Hundreds of thousands followed the account, Goldman Sachs launched an internal investigation, and when the true identity of the man behind it all was revealed, it created a national media sensation - but that's only part of the story.
"If you like the Twitter account you'll love this"
In The Outsiders, you'll learn the traits and methods striking for their consistency and relentless rationality that helped these unique leaders achieve such exceptional performance. Humble, unassuming, and often frugal, these "outsiders" shunned Wall Street and the press, and shied away from the hottest new management trends. Instead, they shared specific traits that put them and the companies they led on winning trajectories: a laser-sharp focus on per share value as opposed to earnings or sales growth; an exceptional talent for allocating capital and human resources; and the belief that cash flow, not reported earnings, determines a company's long-term value.
"Good depth of stories and business concepts"
Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now.

In the "About" screen of each of my apps I display the app's icon with a nice drop shadow under it to give the icon that tangible feeling.
Today I thought I'd share the technique I use to achieve this effect.
In your project, add the QuartzCore framework to your main target. You'll need this to help you reference your icon view's layer property (CALayer) which is responsible for rendering the drop shadow.
Once you've done that add the shadow effects you see in my code below to your icon initialization logic…
Some items to note about the above sample:
I encourage you to experiment with these settings to find the right look for your icon or image.

No Responses to "Time for TWiT"
So, is Patrick wearing a kilt?
George in Bartlett
What sort of room are you guys in??? That looks like a Bathroom sink an dMirror, but the rest look like an office.
Um isn't this the picture from last week when Pat was in the labs?
I could have sworn I saw him in a White shirt this time 😀
I won't say anything else I saw but it is great seeing more than one TSS Alumnist on the same Network Camera again.
Lookin' good, P! Thanks for posting it, Leo! 😉
it is rhe oicture from last week
That's the weirdest Lab i've ever saw … But because its got Leo and Patrick in, it makes it very much better.
The Leoville labs are a room in the upstairs of Leo's house.
Same place he does his radio show.
Based on the angle of the sun, and the time of day, California, the window is facing..
Wait Shoot!
Actually the Attic TWiT office isn't in the attic of Leo's Abode.
He got an office in a converted Bed and Breakfast.
That way he could post the address for the place without giving everyone a road map to his family.
The old Leoville labs were in the home on the farm and that is why we wern't given the address.
I stand corrected. Or rather I sit corrected.
Feel free to leave a comment...
and oh, if you want a pic to show with your comment, go get a gravatar!

The Fable series is finally coming back with a new game that will be released on the next gen Xbox One console. Microsoft has officially revealed Fable Legends during its Gamescom press conference, showing the first trailer for the game.
This announcement doesn't really come as a surprise since Microsoft registered a few domains hinting at Fable Legends. Still, this is definitely good for all role-playing games fans and Fable enthusiasts.
The first Fable Legends trailer, which can be seen by going here, shows a variety of characters living in Albion like wizards, warriors, archers and more. The trailer also shows some locations that fans of the series might expect to see like a forest and a castle.
Fable Legends is a persistent online title with four players co-op action fully supporting the Xbox Cloud services. During the game, one player will control the villain with a top-down view which will allow the player controlling the villain to place traps and enemies for the other players.
Fable Legends will be released exclusively on Xbox One. A precise release date for the game has yet to be announced so stay tuned for more: more details on the latest Fable title will surely be coming in the upcoming hours.

We first heard of some of the new features coming to Second Life, including this new website (the Dashboard feature had been in Beta on the back channel since late June), when Tom Hale demoed them at this years Second Life Community Convention (SLCC).
Yesterday, Torley Linden gave us a sneak preview of the new site as he highlighted some of its key features in one of his renowned video tutorials.
Today, the new site went live on http://secondlife.com/ and I have to say I love it!
The first thing you notice is the beautiful high quality photos (thank you finally!) and the visually stunning machinima's. I especially loved the Titanic like ending of the "What is" video (below).
It's all superficial though! Not only did Linden Lab take feedback from the community and address some issues from the JIRA, they created a truly Web 2.0 website which hints (that may be later further developed) at ways we can connect are other interactions and social media web presences with our avatar's virtual interactions. Thinking of how this could develop and expand in the future reminded me of Botgirl Questi's image visualizing the movement of identity within and between worlds (seen below).
This movement towards embracing and intergratging social media was discussed when Mark Kingdon, aka M Linden, appeared on Metanomics earlier this year.
I am looking to seeing this further evolve. We have so many tools in-world such as Twitter HUDs, and there are lots of SL-centric activity on other online sites such as Flickr, which has thousands of SL groups, that it only makes sense to further incorporate this into the user experience of the SL web (and eventually the viewer UI). I hope that is will further expand in the form of intergration/aggregation on the Dashboard page! Think early Facebook.
I'm also thankful for the prominent featuring of XStreet on the Shop page, but also throughout the website and included on the Dashboard. By putting numerous links throughout and allowing easy access to quick buys, currency exchange, and your personal Xstreet adminstration, Linden Lab has given new users and residents plenty of opportunities to shop, and have increased the visibility of creators and merchants.
The Second Life Map is now web based and interactive. You can now search and find places and events around the grid and then easily teleport to them. The Showcase is also prominently featured on this page as well.
The most notable change to the Land store is the addition of "developed" land aka themed Private Regions. To be honest, I am not sure how useful these will be. I imagine while it might seem interesting at first, a good part of the Second Life experience is having a custom place that represents you. With so many content creators available, I would think more people would want to customize their space themselves. I'll be interested to see the details and statistics surrounding this type of land in the future.
The feature mostly likely to increase and keep users is the added Help for new residents. Linden Labs redesigned the registration page and process and added a PDF Starter's Guide. They also embraced their international users by adding a handy drop down menu to change the language at the top of each page, and by providing toll free support numbers for non-English speaking residents.
Lastly, in order to make it work with the new look, XStreet SL is also debuting a somewhat fresh look. I'm not a huge fan of this, but Pink Linden assures me that this is not the final look of XStreet so I will hold off on my thoughts about it for now.

Bronze pin decorated with an image of a goddess
Luristan culture, 10th-7th century BC
From western Iran
Elaborately decorated bronze pins of this kind are linked stylistically to the rich metalworking tradition of the region of Luristan in the mountains of western Iran. Virtually all the surviving bronzes come from plundered cemeteries of stone-built graves. These vary considerably in date, but predominantly belong early in the first millennium BC. At a number of sites, bronzes were also deposited in shrines.
While most Luristan bronzes are unique, they are related in decoration to a range of objects widely distributed in west Iran.
The heads of this pin has been hammered to form a disc, which has embossed decoration. The female figure grasping lions may represent a goddess.
Pins are particularly common among collections of Luristan bronzes. Although exotic bronze pins were made elsewhere in the Near East they are comparatively rare. They were used to fasten garments and in dressing the hair. In the shrine at Dum Surkh in Luristan, elaborate pins serving as votive gifts were inserted in the walls. The simpler pins, as in Greek sanctuaries, may have been dedicated with clothes, and south-west and western Iran was famous in antiquity for its textiles.

Bodmin Town's match at Tavistock casualty of wet weather
Posted: January 05, 2013|
Champions Bodmin Town's away match against Tavistock in the Carlsberg South West Peninsula League premier dvision was postponed on Saturday morning because of a waterlogged pitch.
Although the weather has been drier in the past few days, the Langsford Park playing surface remained saturated and the attractive fixture became the first casualty of the day in the Peninsula League.
It was quickly followed by the division one west game between St Dennis and Helston, which failed a 10 am pitch inspection because of a waterlogged pitch.
Bodmin's next scheduled game is against Launceston at Priory Park on Wednesday night in the Westinsure Cornwall Senior Cup third round.

As of Friday, March 1, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE -- Kevin Lahey's alleged plot to attack the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center -- uncovered earlier this month after a local father and son stopped the Lilburn man's shoplifting attempt -- is concerning but not unique, one official said.
Lahey, 26, was originally arrested on the afternoon of Feb. 9 after a Snellville police sergeant responded to the Walmart on Scenic Highway in Snellville. Lahey had reportedly been spotted wandering the store "dry firing" a pellet rifle before grabbing other items and attempting to conceal them in his jacket and pockets, Snellville Police Chief Roy Whitehead said.
When confronted while trying to leave via the store's garden center, he allegedly ran and resisted. Good Samaritans Mathew and Jerry Anderson helped police subdue and arrest him.
Whitehead said police allegedly found a treasure trove of weapons, including: a handgun, four ammunition magazines, a leather shoulder holster, two magazine holsters and three large knives. He was arrested and charged with a myriad of crimes.
Within a few days, Lahey was tied to an alert from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives about a pair of stolen silencers, and his home was searched.
Inside, authorities reportedly found some disturbing material -- writings that have been construed as possible threats to the Gwinnett justice center, which houses, among other things, the county's major courts, board of commissioners, district attorney's office and administrative offices.
"We received some writings that described acts of violence," said Major Kirk Williamson, who oversees the sheriff's department's security at the courthouse. "In the same writings there was reference to some court action in Gwinnett. There were no threats directed at a specific person or a specific location. Though they were vague in nature there were enough facts contained in the writing to cause us concern."
Authorities don't believe the writings were ever communicated to anyone, Williamson said.
Specific information about Lahey's alleged threats was not released, but Williamson said threats on the justice center were not all that out of the ordinary.
"We do have between 15 (and) 20 instances per year that we investigate," he said.
ATF spokesman Richard Coes said a criminal complaint had been filed and the case had already been passed along to the United States Attorney's Office.
Lahey remained in federal custody Friday. Williamson said
"Should Mr. Lahey be granted bond," Williamson said, "we will continue to implement measures to provide a safe environment for everyone involved."
Gwinnett County Detention Center records show Lahey's most recent local arrest was his 14th since 2004. In addition to federal charges, Lahey will face single counts of shoplifting, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a weapon during a crime and obstruction in Gwinnett.

Breaking down the tape from the Vikings' loss to the Lions
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
Here's the tale of the tape from the Minnesota Vikings' 26-23 overtime loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, with grades on a scale of 0 to 5 in parentheses:
Quarterbacks (1½)
Donovan McNabb (67 snaps) doesn't bear full responsibility for a third straight offensive collapse, but his inaccuracy in the pocket and inability to generate explosive plays downfield sure didn't help. He threw 10 uncatchable passes, plus several others that were late or in spots that forced open receivers to go to the ground. He finished 22-of-36 passing for 211 yards, a touchdown and an 86.7 passer rating but seemed to sleepwalk through the second half until the Lions took the lead. McNabb did turn a one-hop shotgun snap into an 8-yard touchdown by waiting just long enough for TE Visante Shiancoe to clear himself in the end zone. He bailed out a struggling line once by scrambling on third-and-8 but also took four sacks. Taking an additional five hits is a rough day at the office, especially when one leaves McNabb shaking his throwing hand in pain. That doesn't excuse 1-for-6 passing on third downs after halftime, the only completion leaving the Vikings to attempt a doomed conversion on fourth-and-1. McNabb's longest completion was 24 yards on a day Detroit dropped a safety in the box 35 times (52.2%). Benching McNabb won't cure the Vikings' ills, but letting him play out his one-year contract won't help them win many games either if he can't do better than this -- and recently history strongly suggests he can't. Third-stringer Joe Webb (one) was split wide as a decoy on a running play.
Running backs (3)
Take away the gap error that freed HB Adrian Peterson (59 snaps) for a 43-yard gain on the opening series, and he averaged 2.2 yards on 16 carries, including five for 5 yards after halftime. That won't cut it for a Vikings offense that can't do much of anything else -- not even exploit the single-safety coverage Peterson's presence is yielding on most first and second downs. Penalties wiped out runs of 29 and 14 yards. Peterson caught four passes for 19 yards (4.8 average) and dropped another. He actually had some of his best moments in pass protection, beginning when he dumped MLB Stephen Tulloch on the opening series. The Lions had to know something was up when HB Toby Gerhart (six) played his first snap at fullback in the fourth quarter. He didn't have much choice but to cut back into unblocked RE Kyle Vanden Bosch when the frontside B-gap caved on fourth-and-1. Gerhart gained 2 yards on his only other carry and caught one pass for 5 yards. Peterson just isn't ceding many snaps.
Receivers (2)
What's the point of giving 73.1% of the split-end work to Bernard Berrian (49 snaps)? His one dominant trait (vertical speed) has diminished, he doesn't compete physically for the football and McNabb seems skittish about throwing in his direction (four targets, no catches). Berrian did have a step on CB Chris Houston late in regulation, but the throw drifted out of bounds. OLB DeAndre Levy walked him back on a Peterson run that lost 4. When Michael Jenkins (48) looked to lateral to him on the Vikings' last play, Berrian was 5 yards too far upfield. Maybe it's time to take a longer look at Devin Aromashodu (12), who isn't afraid of 50/50 balls and caught a drag for 5 on one of two targets. Jenkins just kept running slants and stick routes and caught of nine of 11 passes thrown his way for 88 yards (9.8 average). A holding penalty wasn't entirely his fault -- the play was supposed to go the other way before blocking broke down, leaving Jenkins hooked around what ended up being SS Amari Spievey's outside shoulder. Percy Harvin (38) dropped a bubble screen that might have gone for a touchdown, took the same play for 21 yards later and finished with 88 yards on five touches (three catches, two runs, 17.6 average) before a shot to the gut left him throwing up on the sideline for the final 5 minutes and overtime. He was on the field for all but 13 snaps (74.5%) before dropping out -- and that still might not be enough, given the impact it makes when he's on the field.
Tight ends (2)
Rookie Kyle Rudolph (33 snaps) will keep getting more chances if he catches the ball like this. He snared an out for 13 and a pass to the flat for 6 on the first touchdown drive, then saved another errant McNabb pass with a whirling grab for 20 up the seam late. Ten of Rudolph's snaps came detached from the formation and four more in the backfield. He'll stay there until he improves as a blocker. He was part of a blown third-down protection early, and DT Corey Williams beat him to the inside on the failed fourth-and-1. The 8-yard touchdown was the only catch for Shiancoe (55), who often had the safety down on his side and only was targeted twice. He's struggling to get movement in the running game, too, and spinning FS Louis Delmas by the jersey wiped out Peterson's 29-yard run. Even Jimmy Kleinsasser (33) didn't block particularly well after Tulloch popped him in the hole on the opening series. Kleinsasser played 10 "F" snaps in the backfield. McNabb missed him twice up the seam. Allen Reisner (one) is a special teamer for now.
Offensive linemen (1)
RG Anthony Herrera had a tough matchup against DT Ndamukong Suh and seemed to wear down the more snaps he played. Herrera gave up nine total QB pressures, including a sack in 2.8 seconds when McNabb had to step up into Suh's bull rush. He got turned by Suh on fourth-and-1, too, ruining the play at one of the game's pivotal moments. But Herrera was far from the only problem on a day the protection unit hemorrhaged pressure on 20 of 42 pass plays (47.6%). Speed rushes kept beating LT Charlie Johnson and RT Phil Loadholt, who let McNabb get sandwiched on two of the sacks. Johnson gave up four total QB pressures, wasn't anything special in the run game and took two penalties (false start, illegal formation). Loadholt gave up 10 QB pressures -- mostly to Vanden Bosch, who embarrassed him with a bull rush early and later whipped him for a strip-sack in 2.6 seconds. The Lions did it all while rushing five or more only 10 times in McNabb's 38 dropbacks (26.3%), while the Vikings countered with at least one extra blocker 16 times (41.0%). Williams brought LG Steve Hutchinson to his knees on a zone run early and also drew a holding penalty, but the veteran otherwise rose to the challenge. Look no further than the way Hutchinson sealed the hole against DT Sammie Hill on Peterson's 6-yard touchdown run. C John Sullivan has to do something about his shotgun snaps. The one-hopper McNabb turned into a touchdown could have cost the Vikings points with the clock ticking and no timeouts. Sullivan's run blocking is OK when he can focus on slipping to the second level instead of moving a big man over the nose.
Defensive linemen (3½)
Has RE Jared Allen (71 snaps) ever played better than this? He torched LT Jeff Backus for sacks in 2.1 and 2.0 seconds, came free for a strip-sack off a T-E game in 2.5 and finished with six total QB pressures. No wonder Backus false started twice as the Metrodome rocked in the fourth quarter. Allen also was unrelenting in the run game and had a right to be upset some teammates weren't keeping up. He couldn't blame LE Brian Robison (64), who benched RT Gosder Cherilus with a sack in 2.5 seconds, beat backup RT Corey Hilliard with an inside counter for another sack in 2.4 and had eight total QB pressures. The Lions countered with a short passing game, and QB Matthew Stafford released the ball in an average of 2.14 seconds during the second-half comeback, holding on more than 3 seconds only twice in 29 passes (6.9%). DE Everson Griffen (24) added three QB pressures, played 10 snaps as a standup linebacker in the new 3-3 concept subpackages and had a neutral-zone infraction. So much for easing in UT Kevin Williams (61) after his layoff. He had a couple of QB pressures, made two solo tackles, got turned on RB Keiland Williams' early third-and-1 plunge, never saw the fumble Allen forced and took an encroachment penalty. At least someone inside will penetrate now. DT Letroy Guion (35), NT Remi Ayodele (12) and DT Fred Evans (nine) all saw reduced snaps and failed to get in on a tackle, but they held their ground well enough as Detroit averaged 1.1 yards on 19 carries -- none longer than 5. Guion flushed Stafford on one of the TD passes. DT Christian Ballard (six) took a couple of snaps at end.
Linebackers (2½)
Win or lose, SLB Chad Greenway (71 snaps) never quits. He got in on eight tackles (five solo), spilled several other runs to the edge, saved the Vikings from playing third-and-6 with only 10 men by calling timeout and generated pressure with three of his seven blitzes, landing at Stafford's feet after running over HB Jahvid Best on the Lions' final play. Greenway also beat two blocks to trip TE Brandon Pettigrew on one screen but couldn't avoid C Dominic Raiola on the one Best took for 60. The horse-collar penalty was a tough one to swallow. MLB E.J. Henderson (67) came off the field in the rarely used dime defense and still hasn't looked quite as explosive since his bad knee swelled. He drew a holding penalty on LG Rob Sims, was in on 10 tackles (seven solo) got tripped up on Best's big screen and was the closest man in coverage on Pettigrew's catches of 10, 14, 10 and 27 yards. No question, the word is out about attacking the middle when the Vikings back off in zone. Henderson only blitzed twice as DC Fred Pagac rushed five or more nine times in Stafford's 49 dropbacks (18.4%). SLB Erin Henderson (nine) barely got on the field because the Vikings played 62 snaps in subpackages (87.3%). He had a solo tackle and disturbed another run while he was in there.
Defensive backs (2)
WR Calvin Johnson finally took over in the second half (six catches, 101 yards), but it would be tough to heap substantial blame on the corners. The Vikings played sides throughout, with No. 3 CB Chris Cook (62 snaps) drawing the primary assignment because Johnson lines up wide right more often than not. They also mixed in some Cover-3, and Johnson beat Cook downfield only once -- boxing him out on a jump ball for a 32-yard touchdown that sparked the rally. Cook broke up two other passes, made a sure tackle on third-and-goal and kept Best from scoring on the screen. CB Cedric Griffin (71) leaped to break up a go ball for WR Titus Young, gave up slants to Young for 22 and 17 and couldn't keep Johnson from getting off the jam on third-and-4. SS Husain Abdullah (71) doubled a 4-yard out to TE Tony Scheffler instead of helping Griffin on the 40-yard dagger in overtime, but that's a spectacular adjustment by Johnson to haul it in at the sideline. The Lions used motion to get CB Antoine Winfield (71) out of the slot against their screens. He still got a piece of seven tackles (five solo) and dropped deep a little bit in what looked like a quarters concept. CB Asher Allen (five) played in the dime and wasn't a factor. Abdullah kept coming up to cover slot receivers and was quiet with three tackles (two solo). SS Jamarca Sanford (63) got most of the work ahead of SS Tyrell Johnson (eight), was caught peeking on Johnson's 5-yard touchdown and got in on five tackles (two solo) to Johnson's two (one solo).
Specialists (3½)
CB Marcus Sherels walks on the edge sometimes, but he's proving more explosive on punt returns than the Vikings could have dreamed. Sherels caught the first punt with his fingertips, fair-caught another on his own 4-yard line and might have erred by trying to return P Ryan Donahue's moonshot out of a backpedal at the end of regulation. He also made two Lions miss on a 15-yard return early, stiff-armed the punter on a 53-yarder that set up the touchdown before the half and made a great play off of CB Brandon McDonald's block as a coverage gunner. HB Lorenzo Booker picked up key blocks from Gerhart, LB Kenny Onatolu and Ballard on his 68-yard kickoff return and averaged 37.7 yards on three. Harvin had returns of 25 and 22 before dropping out. Onatolu's cheap shot on LB Justin Durant after Sherels' return was a huge mistake, given the situation. Asher Allen (holding) and Aromashodu (running out of bounds) had penalties, too. Tyrell Johnson could have been called for another, but his last push on WR Maurice Stovall helped spring Sherels. Maybe he needed to prove something, because Johnson seemed to be everywhere on special teams. PK Ryan Longwell had plenty of leg on a 49-yard field goal. He also hit from 41 and 33, converted two extra points and averaged 3.74 yards of hangtime on the five kickoffs he booted away, with two touchbacks. P Chris Kluwe grossed 44.5, netted 38.3 and averaged 4.48 seconds of hang time on four punts. He also took a grenade to drive out WR Stefan Logan after a 20-yard return and rescued a rare high snap from LS Cullen Loeffler on an extra point.

text: Enlightenment engineers: meditation and mindfulness in Silicon Valley Business 19 June 13 by Noah Shachtman Shutterstock Chade-Meng Tan is perched on a chair, his lanky body folded into a half-lotus position. "Close your eyes," he says. His voice is a hypnotic baritone, slow and rhythmic, seductive and gentle. "Allow your attention to rest on your breath: The in-breath, the out-breath, and the spaces in between." We feel our lungs fill and release. As we focus on the smallest details of our respiration, other thoughts -- of work, of family, of money -- begin to recede, leaving us alone with the rise and fall of our chests. For thousands of years, these techniques have helped put practitioners into meditative states. Today is no different. There's a palpable silence in the room. For a moment, all is still. I take another breath.The quiet is broken a few minutes later, when Meng, as he is known, declares the exercise over. We blink, smile at one another, and look around our makeshift zendo -- a long, fluorescent-lit presentation room on Google's corporate campus in Silicon Valley. Meng and most of his pupils are Google employees, and this meditation class is part of an internal course called Search Inside Yourself. It's designed to teach people to manage their emotions, ideally making them better workers in the process. "Calm the mind," Meng says, getting us ready for the next exercise: a meditation on failure and success.More than a thousand Googlers have been through Search Inside Yourself training. Another 400 or so are on the waiting list and take classes like Neural Self-Hacking and Managing Your Energy in the meantime. Then there is the company's bimonthly series of "mindful lunches," conducted in complete silence except for the ringing of prayer bells, which began after the Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh visited in 2011. The search giant even recently built a labyrinth for walking meditations.It's not just Google that's embracing Eastern traditions. Across the Valley, quiet contemplation is seen as the new caffeine, the fuel that allegedly unlocks productivity and creative bursts. Classes in meditation and mindfulness -- paying close, nonjudgmental attention -- have become staples at many of the region's most prominent companies. There's a Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute now teaching the Google meditation method to whoever wants it. The cofounders of Twitter and Facebook have made contemplative practices key features of their new enterprises, holding regular in-office meditation sessions and arranging for work routines that maximise mindfulness. Some 1,700 people showed up at a Wisdom 2.0 conference held in San Francisco in February, with top executives from LinkedIn, Cisco, and Ford featured among the headliners.These companies are doing more than simply seizing on Buddhist practices. Entrepreneurs and engineers are taking millennia-old traditions and reshaping them to fit the Valley's goal-oriented, data-driven, largely atheistic culture. Forget past lives; never mind nirvana. The technology community of Northern California wants return on its investment in meditation. "All the woo-woo mystical stuff, that's really retrograde," says Kenneth Folk, an influential meditation teacher in San Francisco. "This is about training the brain and stirring up the chemical soup inside."It can be tempting to dismiss the interest in these ancient practices as just another neo-spiritual fad from a part of the country that's cycled through one New Age after another. But it's worth noting that the prophets of this new gospel are in the tech companies that already underpin so much of our lives. And these firms are awfully good at turning niche ideas into things that hundreds of millions crave.Many of the people who shaped the personal computer industry and the Internet were once members of the hippie counterculture. So an interest in Eastern faiths is all but hardwired into the modern tech world. Steve Jobs spent months searching for gurus in India and was married by a Zen priest. Before he became an American Buddhist pioneer, Jack Kornfield ran one of the first mainframes at Harvard Business School.But in today's Silicon Valley, there's little patience for what many are happy to dismiss as "hippie bullshit." Meditation here isn't an opportunity to reflect upon the impermanence of existence but a tool to better oneself and improve productivity. That's how Bill Duane, a pompadoured onetime engineer with a tattoo of a bikini-clad woman on his forearm, frames Neural Self-Hacking, an introductory meditation class he designed for Google. "Out in the world, a lot of this stuff is pitched to people in yoga pants," he says. "But I wanted to speak to my people. I wanted to speak to me. I wanted to speak to the grumpy engineer who may be an atheist, who may be a rationalist."Duane's pitch starts with neuroscience and evolutionary biology. "We're basically the descendants of nervous monkeys," he says, the kind with hair-trigger fight-or-flight responses. In the modern workplace, these hyperactive reflexes are now a detriment, turning minor squabbles into the emotional equivalents of kill-or-be-killed showdowns. In such situations, the amygdala -- the region of the brain believed to be responsible for processing fear -- can override the rest of the mind's ability to think logically. We become slaves to our monkey minds. Repeated studies have demonstrated that meditation can rewire how the brain responds to stress. Boston University researchers showed that after as little as three and a half hours of meditation training, subjects tend to react less to emotionally charged images. Other research suggests that meditation improves working memory and executive function. And several studies of long-term practitioners show an increased ability to concentrate on fast-changing stimuli. One paper cited by the Google crew even implies that meditators are more resistant to the flu.But Googlers don't take up meditation just to keep away the sniffles or get a grip on their emotions. They are also using it to understand their coworkers' motivations, to cultivate their own "emotional intelligence" -- a characteristic that tends to be in short supply among the engineering set. "Everybody knows this EI thing is good for their career," says Search Inside Yourself founder Meng. "And every company knows that if their people have EI, they're gonna make a shitload of money."Meng has had quite a career himself, joining Google in 2000 as employee number 107 and working on mobile search. But for years, his attempts to bring meditation into the office met with limited success. It was only in 2007, when he packaged contemplative practices in the wrapper of emotional intelligence, that he saw demand spike. Now there are dozens of employee development programs at Google that incorporate some aspect of meditation or mindfulness. And Meng -- who was born in Singapore and was turned on to Buddhism by an American nun -- has slowly ascended to icon status within the company. More than one Search Inside Yourself student has asked Meng for his autograph.There is in fact little data to support the notion that meditation is good for Google's bottom line, just a few studies from outfits like the Conference Board showing that emotionally connected employees tend to remain at their current workplaces. Still, the company already tends to its employees' physical needs with onsite gyms, subsidised massages, and free organic meals to keep them productive. Why not help them search for meaning and emotional connection as well?Duane, for one, credits Google's meditation program with upgrading both his business and personal life. It wasn't long ago that he was a stress case, and with good reason: He was leading a 30-person site-reliability team while dealing with his father's life-threatening heart disease. "My typical coping strategy -- the bourbon and cheeseburger method -- wasn't working," he says. Then Duane attended a lecture Meng arranged on the neuroscience of mindfulness and quickly adopted a meditation practice of his own.Duane believes the emotional regulation he gained from meditation helped him cope with his father's eventual death. The increased ability to focus, he says, was a major factor in his promotion to a management post where he oversaw nearly 150 Googlers. In January he decided to leave the company's cadre of engineers and concentrate full-time on bringing meditation to more of the organisation. Google executives, who have put mindfulness at the centre of their internal training efforts, OK'd the switch.Duane still doesn't have much use for hippies. He still professes to be a proud empiricist. But when I walk back into the Search Inside Yourself class, neither he nor any of the other Googlers seem at all fazed when Meng tells us to imagine the goodness of everyone on the planet and to visualise that goodness as a glowing white light.As before, Meng's voice lowers and slows to a crawl. And, of course, we close our eyes. "When you breathe in, breathe in all that goodness into your heart. Using your heart, multiply that goodness by 10," he says, in a variation on a Tibetan Tonglen exercise. "When you breathe out, send all that goodness to the whole world. And if it's useful to you, you may visualise yourself breathing out white light -- brilliant white light -- representing this abundance of goodness." We exhale. I actually feel a buzzing on the underside of my skull as I try to imagine pure love. For a minute, I forget that we're in a room ordinarily reserved for corporate presentations.Search inside yourself might have remained a somewhat isolated phenomenon in the Valley if a mindfulness instructor named Soren Gordhamer hadn't found himself divorced, broke, out of a job, and stuck in the town of Dixon, New Mexico (population 1,500). Gordhamer, who had spent years teaching yoga and meditation in New York City's juvenile detention centres, was feeling increasingly beleaguered by his seemingly uncontrollable Twitter habit. He decided to write a book -- Wisdom 2.0: Ancient Secrets for the Creative and Constantly Connected -- that offered tips for using technology in a mindful manner.The book wasn't exactly a best seller. But Gordhamer struck a nerve when he described how hard it was to focus in our always-on culture. By providing constant access to email, tweets, and Facebook updates, smartphones keep users distracted, exploiting the same psychological vulnerability as slot machines: predictable input and random payouts. They feed a sense that any pull of the lever, or Facebook refresh, could result in an information jackpot.And so he got the idea to host a conference where the technology and contemplative communities could hash out the best ways to incorporate these tools into our lives -- and keep them from taking over. The event, billed as Wisdom 2.0, was held in April 2010 and drew a couple hundred people.That was three years ago; since then attendance at the now annual conference has shot up 500 percent. In 2013 nearly 1,700 signed up to hear headliners like Arianna Huffington, LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner, Twitter cofounder Evan Williams, and, of course, Meng talk about how they run their enterprises mindfully. Gordhamer has become a Silicon Valley superconnector, with an array of contacts that would make an ordinary entrepreneur burst with envy. He now leads private retreats for the technorati, and more conferences are in the works -- one just for women, another to be held in New York City. "Everywhere you turn at Wisdom," says PayPal cofounder Luke Nosek, "it's like, 'Oh my God, you're here too?'" Read page 2 12 Read on one page Comments Latest on wired.co.uk

In his new book Life Inc.: How the World Became a Corporation and How to Take It Back, author Douglas Rushkoff says that to get out of the current economic crisis, Americans must rethink their relationship with companies like Wal-Mart. He favors local economies, local currencies, and even the old-fashioned concept of getting to know your neighbors. He joins The Takeaway with more.
For a sneak peek at the book, here's a brief film of Life, Inc.
"While a repressive state can mow down dozens, perhaps hundreds of people, it cannot mow down hundreds of thousands of people... But this has been a very, very harsh clampdown."
— New York Times columnist Roger Cohen on the media ban in Iran
"If they're too big to fail, they're often too big to sell, even in their pieces."
— Economist Peter Morici on U.S. banks
Surfers in the Midwest are cheering this week because of a change to a Chicago law that makes it possible to take surfboards on the city's beaches. The Takeaway talks to surfer Vince Deur who co-chairs the Great Lakes chapter of the Surfrider Foundation.

The Takeaway is joined by Mark Rosenbaum, the Legal Director of the ACLU of Southern California and one of lawyers in Federal court seeking to extend the consent decree involving the LAPD. Also joining The Takeaway is Chris Stone, Criminal Justice Professor at Harvard University who wrote a nine-month study of the LAPD that came out last month.
"We have 47 million people with no coverage at all. So the net gain is still nowhere even close to universal coverage."
— Takeaway correspondent Todd Zwillich on healthcare reform
The Iran election results showed a landslide victory for President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad—and sparked Tehran's worst violence in 10 years.The spokesman for Iran's Guardian Council says it is ready to do a recount of specific ballot boxes where candidates say irregularities occurred.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|The Simple English Wiktionary has a definition for: jihad.
Jihad is an Arabic word meaning "to struggle". Muslims (believers in Islam) use this word to talk about defending the faith and protecting their family and nation, as well as defending innocent people. It can also mean fighting with yourself to become a better person. It is an official part of Shi'a Islam, but it is not an official part of Sunni Islam, though some call it the sixth pillar of Islam.
