Benitez, who left Chelsea last month for Napoli, has been succeeded by Mourinho, with whom he has often shared a fractious relationship. Mourinho has often been castigated for his unsporting ways.
Benítez told AS: "I don't know what Mourinho does. I know what I do: I always want to win, without crossing the line of sportsmanship. It's true that I get on better with some coaches than others and I align myself with those that don't value winning at any cost.

Conference Paper
Rough Approximations of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this communication is to demonstrate the fact that fuzzy rough sets in the sense of Nanda and Majumdar [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 45 (1992) 157] are, indeed, intuitionistic L-fuzzy sets developed by Atanassov [VII ITKR's Session; Fuzzy Sets and Systems 20 (1986) 87].Fuzzy Sets and Systems 06/1998; 96(3):381-383.

Article: On generalized fuzzy rough sets[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this paper, a class of generalized fuzzy rough sets based on two universes are studied. Some new set-valued mappings and fuzzy set-valued mappings are introduced to discuss properties of the known model, and a new model for fuzzy rough sets is proposed which provides a new selection of interval structure for uncertainty reasoning using rough set theory. Some properties of the new model are revealed. The new model seems to be more natural in the sense that fuzzy sets are approximated by fuzzy sets on the same universe.International Journal of General Systems 04/2009; 38(3-3):255-271.

Thanks for helping!
I canot eat sushi due to allergies; however the staff at Wasbi is very gracious in ensuring I have a great dining experience. Love the tempura everything at Wasabi!
Went there for lunch with a friend. Waiters were ok and the food..well...it was ok I guess. I had way better sushis.
I realized today when I checked my credit card account that they charged me $51 instead of $24. I guess their lunch special is ok for $10, but I personally would not go there anymore.
This the review sent to wasabi with no response. I would not trust kitchen or service
I was initially very excited to have a Wasabi in our town. And my excitement was not a disappointment as quality and service was good.
We have traveled very often to St. Louis for Sushi
Over the years chef/staff have changed not always for...
I've tried several sushi places around Troy and Edwardsville areas. Wasabi is by far the best tasting. Very fresh, very tasty...price is about same for other sushi places. The one in Edwardsville is small, yet cozy. Not too loud..although they do have live music on occassion. Eat here a lot!
This is an ok place - not too many sushi options in Edwardsviile. However fish is not always the freshest. Limited wine options (organic wine has been on the menu for months but they never have it in stock). Service is usually good.
Tip 1 - If coming for lunch or weekend dinner show up a little early. Wasabi is a very small sushi restaurant. If you are coming for lunch at the standard time 12-1, you will end up with very little space to eat or maneuver. Show up early and request a table close to the door or outside or, in...
The place was crowded and the girl taking names told us to wait outside. Seriously? So we went upstairs and called in an order. That was a much better idea.
This is a chain restaurant around these parts. The sushi is pretty good for a land-locked area. They have a decent selection of sashimi and rolls - I really like the tuna and the caterpillar roll. Service is just okay; servers are mainly college students that do not have good knowledge of the menu. Wine selection is limited. The last...
Being that it was my birthday, my wife took me out for dinner. Since I'd been jonesing for some good sushi, we made our first visit to the Wasabi. It will not be our last. Put a delicious Bento box in front of me, with sushi, teriyaki beef, tempura and steamed rice, and I was in Japanese food heaven..
This location is owned by the same folks that own the other Wasabis in St Louis.
I think the food is slightly better at the downtown location but this one is much more convenient to where I live.
We have been to this location probably a dozen times since it opened.
Service is generally good (if not always informed) and...

5/31/2014 | We know that corporations often make profits because they parasitize the commons-- stealing assets, like clear water, clear air, uncompensated or treated worker injuries, use of educated workers or use of roads that far exceeds the average human's use.
If those corporations paid for those abuses-- paid to the commons-- then we might not have the budget problems we have and we might have a lot less problems with the environment or workers or other ways that corporate parasitization exploits our commons.

Mandating austerity by sfgate.com
5/7/2014 | Governor Jerry Brown is aggressively pushing a California state constitutional amendment requiring budget surpluses to be used to pay down municipal debt and create an emergency "rainy day" fund, in anticipation of the next economic crisis.
On the face of it, it is a sensible idea. As long as Wall Street controls America's finances and our economy, another catastrophic bust is a good bet.

April 25, 2014 | Walmart recently announced that it would stock a selection of lower-cost organic packaged foods. A storm of positive press followed, including two U.S. News columns (here and here) by David Brodwin of the American Sustainable Business Council, who argued that, despite Walmart's many sins, it was doing good in this case by legitimatizing and mainstreaming sustainable products in the eyes of consumers, investors, the media, and other companies.
I'm a big fan of David's work, and of ASBC, but I think he's got this one backward. The story that Walmart created with its announcement was not: Wow, organics have changed. They've gone mainstream. (That's not really news, after all.) Instead, the story was: Wow, Walmart has changed. It's gone organic. In other words, Walmart is not legitimizing organic foods so much as using organic foods to legitimize its own business model.

Thursday, May 8, 2014 | When I woke up to see the news, I could hardly believe it: President Obama is planning a visit to the Mountain View Wal-Mart where I work.
But the excitement quickly passed when I found out the store would be shutting down hours in advance of his visit. I wouldn't be able to tell the president what it's like to work at Wal-Mart and what it's like to struggle on low wages, without the hours I need. I am living at the center of the income inequality that he speaks about so often, and I wanted to talk to him about how to change this problem.
Pam Ramos has worked for four years at the Walmart in Mountain View, California. She is also a member of OUR Walmart, the worker organization calling on Walmart to publicly commit to paying workers $25,000 a year, providing full-time work and ending illegal retaliation.
Walmart Prices Would Rise By Pennies If It Paid Workers More Than Poverty Wages, Bryce Covert, ThinkProgress
CJ Werleman, AlterNet
May 2, 2014 | If you're looking for the genesis of America's widening income inequality, you can find it in a memo written in 1971 by the corporate lawyer and future U.S. Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell. The memo was titled "Attack on American Free Enterprise System" and it outlined ways in which corporations could shut out those who were hostile to corporate interests. Essentially, this memo became the blueprint for moving the boardrooms of Wall Street to the congressional chambers of Washington DC.
Powell named consumer activist Ralph Nader as corporate enemy number one. In the years 1966 to 1973, Congress passed 25 pieces of consumer legislation, nearly all of which contained Nader's fingerprints, including auto and highway safety laws, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist David Cay Johnson said of Nader in an interview, "The big books they [Nader and associates] put out were serious, first-rate journalism. Corporate America was terrified by this."
Ralph Nader is a consumer advocate, lawyer, and author. His latest book is The Seventeen Solutions: Bold Ideas for Our American Future. Other recent books include, The Seventeen Traditions: Lessons from an American Childhood, Getting Steamed to Overcome Corporatism: Build It Together to Win, and "Only The Super-Rich Can Save Us" (a novel).

05/14/14 | Efforts to crack down on payday loans in Minnesota could again be headed to "Wait'll-next-year'' status.
Yes, the Minnesota House has passed a bill that would put tougher restrictions on operations that charge the state's poorest interest rates of 250 percent-plus.
And yes, the governor on Monday tried to shed more light on the business practices that operate in the shadows of decency.

Apr 29, 2014 | Enough is enough, sports fans.
It's been known for decades that Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling is a racist jerk. Ditto Daniel Snyder, the owner of that professional football team in our nation's capital whose current horrific anti-indigenous team name is a global embarrassment.
But these guys are the tip of the iceberg. The real question is: Why are these teams owned by individuals at all? Why do we allow our precious sports clubs to be the playthings of a bunch of wealthy degenerates?
Why aren't the football, baseball, basketball, hockey and other major sports franchises so many of us so passionately love and support not owned by the communities that give them their life? Why is our nation powerless to remove the racist logo from a public stadium just down the street from the White House and Congress?

Hope Quotes and Sayings - Page 2
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don't wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
– Barack Obama
We need the possibility of escape as surely as we need hope.
– Edward Abbey
All human wisdom is contained in these two words – Wait and Hope.
– Alexandre Dumas
Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again.
– Anne Frank
Dear God, if one day I lose my hope and purpose, give me confidence that your destiny is better than anything I ever dreamed.
You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming.
– Pablo Neruda
When you think you will never have a chance, things change, they always do. When it comes though you have to grab it with both hands and hold on tight.
Just because something isn't happening for you right now, doesn't mean it will never happen.
An old Cherokee told his grandson:
"My son, there's a battle between two wolves inside us all.
One is Evil. It's anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies and ego.
The other is Good. It's joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness & truth."
The boy thought about it, and asked:
"Grandfather, which wolf wins?"
The old man quietly replied:
"The one you feed."
Disappointments are just God's way of saying "I've got something better" Be patient…live life…

So earlier tonight my 27" iMac (2009) went pixilated (green, yellow, blue, white small pixels) then the screen went black, but the computer was still running. I shut it down and turned it back on and I didn't have a problem until recently. After clicking play on a video on Facebook, the pixels returned and the screen went black again. I then proceeded to shut the computer down, but when I turned it back on, this is what I saw (refer to picture, sorry it's upsidedown)
The lines eventually disappeared along with the Apple logo, but the screen remained white for at least five minutes. I restarted my mac again, but the lines returned and the screen stayed white. That was around ten minutes ago and the screen is still white. What's wrong here?
Also, I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion about two months or so ago from Snow Leopard (either 10.8 or 10.8.1) if that's important at all.
Exact same thing has just happened to me! I believe I clicked on a facebook video as well; same pinkish strips and same white screen. My life and business is in this computer!

Close Tweet0 Share0 Comment0 Share0 Share0 Stumble It0 Print0 More SI Wire Mark Sanchez: Anonymous Criticism Is "Gutless" by Tyler Radecki Email Posted: Fri Mar. 16, 2012 New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez on Thursday responded to the reports of unnamed teammates criticizing him after the 2011 season, calling it "gutless," according to ESPN.com."It is a gutless thing to do," Sanchez said in reference to the anonymous attacks, according to ESPN.com.He added: "If you're not going to put your name on something, why waste anybody's time? Obviously, they had strong opinions about it, but not strong enough to say who they were."Sanchez, 25, also added his reasoning for staying quiet after the season was over, saying that what happens on the field is all that matters, according to ESPN.com."Whether I come out and try to defend myself or not, it doesn't matter unless you go win games," he said. "That's the ultimate goal. That's the ultimate defense, winning games. Go win games next year and this is all a distant memory and a great lesson. That's the plan."Sanchez struggled last season, throwing 18 interceptions with a 78.2 QB rating. He accepted some of the blame for his rift with wide receiver Santonio Holmes, but added the two have been in "constant communication," according to ESPN.com. "I don't want to speak for Santonio, but I know I underachieved," Sanchez said. "I think there were some things I could've handled better with him and our communication." Promoted Stories Comments

I mowed my lawn the other night. It took me two hours since I have over a third of an acre of lawns and hadn't mowed them in three weeks. I hired a lawn crew when I moved in, but fired them after three visits.
That's kind of how things have gone around here.
In a funny turn of events, a neighbor peeked his head over the fence and told me he noticed all the work going on and if there was anything he could do to help. "Well, actually, yes." Was my answer. He sealed up all the gaps and entrances where rats and skunks could get into my house (true story) and when I chatted with him afterwards he said he likes helping neighbors and there was no charge.
I could have cried.
I think the deal is this - I've had a really hard time asking for help my whole life. The word I chose for this year was SURRENDER and holy shit has that been the case. I think this is me finally surrendering to asking for help and being ok with it.
|Since I don't have a picture of my mowed lawn, here's a gratuitous house picture
In other news, I have been making soap like a fiend. I absolutely adore making soap! It's been such a breath of fresh air to have a new hobby. I'm still at the point where it's what I'm thinking about when I fall asleep. It makes for pleasant dreams that way...
You can follow along with my soaping adventures on my Instagram page (along with gardening, pizza, laundry, sunset, and house pictures since that is pretty much my whole life).
Lots of people have been asking if I plan on selling my soap. The answer is yes! I will be opening an Etsy shop in the near future. I will make sure to post the link here and on twitter when that happens. And yes, it already has a name...
Stay tuned!

im pretty sure I've written a review for this already, but just in case i haven't i gotta say...
wow. just WOW. this is amazing! i have always been a huge fan of carnage and venom, if one of them ever escaped into reality, this is probably what it would look like. the thing most folks forget about the Sybiote suits is the fact that they are actually flowing, like a liquid. this looks like liquid meat (if that makes any sense to you). i'd like to say this is the parker Carnage, which was basically what happened when parker got captured by some scientists who then injected him with a sample of the Symbiotic suit. Venom then came in, kicked the shit out of it, and the red suit (Carnage) dropped onto an escaped murderer (Cletus Kasady) and then carnage was reborn. So yeah. applause for you sir.

What Did We Learn In Three And A Half Days?
Monday April 2nd, 2012 - 11:14AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
So, what did we learn from three and a half days at the Home + Housewares Show?
That you can't please everyone.
There are many who will continue to insist three days are plenty— that all the five hours tacked to the front of the show on Saturday afternoon accomplished was to shift its most productive period forward by a day, leaving Tuesday as a relative non-factor. They might have a point.
But Tuesday has always been a bit of a crapshoot for buyer attendance during the show's three-day, Sunday-Tuesday format. As such, one could counter the extended format delivered an extra half a day of quality meeting time.
Extra Time
Nothing is set in stone, but early indications from the International Housewares Association are that the industry should prepare for the four-day show format to stick. Four-day schedules through the 2016 show are already posted on the association's website (the 2013 show is set for March 2 to 5).
A big jump in the number of retail attendees at the show during the next few years is unlikely. The extra time was not created or needed to accommodate an unexpected rush of additional buyers. The four-day format all along has been touted by IHA as more time for retail buyers to work the show more effectively, particularly independent retailers and other buyers with responsibilities that encompass a wider portion of the show's three-hall expanse at McCormick Place.
Early Start
Many exhibitors confirmed the show's traffic seemed more diffuse across its three and a half days. While they didn't necessarily see more retailers, many said they got to spend more time with the retailers they saw.
Rationalization or justification? The difference often is subtle.
Starting the show on a Saturday wasn't a detriment. Buyers answered the 12:30 p.m. Saturday bell in solid numbers (about 70% of those that attended on Sunday last year entered on Saturday this year, according to IHA). If anything, many exhibitors and retailers seemed ready for an even earlier Saturday start, including some exhibitors that took advantage of the chance to hold sales meetings in their booths that morning.
Making The Rounds
A nice bonus from the Saturday start: International buyers, who continue to drive the show's overall traffic gains, were especially abundant and active on the first day.
Kitchenware-and-tableware-dominated McCormick South appeared to be the biggest beneficiary of the extra time independent retailers had to work the show. However, buying teams from several key national retailers were still making their rounds in all three halls on Tuesday morning.
An earlier close on Tuesday could be considered as a potential giveback to exhibitors, possibly helping them trim costs by sending some personnel home a hotel room night and a couple meals earlier.
As with all things new, it doesn't just take time to get used to change. It also takes time to figure out how to adapt to and optimize that change.
The extended Home + Housewares Show won't please everyone. As the IHA evaluates the data and feedback from what by most accounts was a successful show, its focus needs to stay on doing whatever it takes to please a good majority of everyone.

The holiday season must be approaching, because retailers are adding items to their wish lists. I don't mean the products expected to be big sellers during the fourth quarter. I'm referring to new demands by retailers to their suppliers for fees, price allowances and other hands-tying arrangements.

It was a long road for these six B.A.S.S. Nation anglers to get to the Classic; now, they're on the way to Birmingham.

New England's Best Historic Inns
In 1785, the country's first commercial marble quarry opened in Dorset, source of its marble sidewalks, conferring on the village a touch of class that's also evident in its handsome homes. The inn grew when Dorset became a summer destination, and summer and fall rates are still higher than at other times of the year. At holiday time, guests can find shopping bargains at the designer outlets in neighboring Manchester, or ski at nearby Stratton and Bromley.
We visited on a gloomy midweek day, grateful for the gas fire in our rear-wing suite; also for the tea, coffee, and cookies by the parlor hearth. Past guests will be pleased to know that the inn still serves its iconic turkey croquettes and that its beloved waitress of 25 years, Nuni, still presides in the Tavern. (Ask her about the ghost.)
No. 4
Perkinsville, Vermont
Built as a private house in the 1790s, The Inn at Weathersfield, in Perkinsville, Vermont, is a rambling, luxuriously relaxing place to stay and one of the best places to dine in the Green Mountain State.
Chef Jason Tostrup is recognized as one of Vermont's foremost locally grounded chefs, no small feat in a state where the "locavore" esthetic enjoys near-religious status. He begins his workday by visiting farms, collecting eggs and produce. He enthuses about the quality of locally raised meat and waxes lyrical about the variety of farmstead cheeses available on his circuit–which guests are invited to tour themselves, using innkeepers Jane and David Sandelman's map and guide to local farms.
Today the house is a far cry from the boarded-up property the Sandelmans bought from the bank a decade ago. From original rooms in the front of the house to suites squirreled away up multiple staircases and tucked under the eaves, the dozen guestrooms are furnished with comfortable antiques and fitted with every conceivable amenity, many with gas fireplaces and Jacuzzis.
The inn's Restaurant Verterra is warmed by a blazing fire in a fieldstone hearth. Patrons may choose from several menus, but we went for Tostrup's unwritten specials. We lost count of the number of small, artistically arranged plates we admired and consumed, savoring every crumb. Again, it was like unpacking a Christmas stocking. Who knew that crispy veal belly could taste so good?
No. 5
Hancock, New Hampshire
The Hancock Inn opened in 1789 at the heart of a classically New England village in New Hampshire's Monadnock region. It's the state's oldest continuously operating inn and remains an authentically historic, friendly, and comfortable place to stay.
Innkeepers Jarvis and Marcia Coffin and Potter the golden retriever greet guests at the door. It's easy to visualize past patrons gathering in the tavern around the big old bar and fireplace. The 1860s ledger here records hundreds of guests, including Franklin Pierce, recently retired from the U.S. presidency at the time. The inn is still known for good food, especially its signature Shaker cranberry pot roast.
The 14 guestrooms are all attractively furnished, and many have gas or electric hearths. One guestroom wall features a mural of trees and hills created in the 1820s by itinerant painter Rufus Porter. In another guestroom, stencils replicate patterns by famed 19th-century artist Moses Eaton, a Hancock resident. Eaton himself decorated several rooms, but the only sample of his original work that has survived here is in a closet.
When you venture outside the inn, the nearby Harris Center offers hiking and cross-country skiing; there's also skating on Norway Pond, just a quick stroll away, and downhill skiing at Crotched Mountain in the neighboring town of Bennington.
No. 6
Stonington, Connecticut
"All the stones from the White Mountains were dropped right here in Stonington," Mary Wilska says, pointing to small boulders piled into walls dividing the fields around her Inn at Lower Farm. She tells us that this coastal corner of Connecticut once marked the southern reach of New England's glacier. Inside her 1740s post-and-beam farmhouse, a mammoth stone lintel above the kitchen hearth seems further proof.
Thanks to a massive central chimney, three guestrooms retain working Rumford fireplaces, also an uncluttered grace. All are bright and spacious, with white, stencil-trimmed walls, pleasingly painted 18th-century woodwork, comfortable seating, and good-size bathrooms.

For many years the Herbert Wescoat Memorial Library has coordinated the "Gift of Reading," a program designed to provide disadvantaged children in Vinton County with a new book as a holiday gift (see attached flyer below). Each year, the library works in collaboration with local charitable organizations to serve the needs of several children.
The library hopes that with the gift of these materials, children will be encouraged to develop an interest in reading and learning, pursue lifelong learning skills, and meet educational objectives established in their courses of study.
Patrons who wish to participate in this program may make monetary contributions of any size directly to the Herbert Wescoat Memorial Library. However, a new book may be purchased and donated to the library, noting that it is for use with the "Gift of Reading" program.
All money collected will be used to purchase new books.
For information about this or other programs, please call (740) 596-5691 and ask to speak with Diana Johnston or Clint Walker.
Helping Hands Christmas Angel Tree Project (see attached flyer)
This event, sponsored by the Herbert Wescoat Memorial Library, provides new Christmas gifts to needy children who have been identified by Job and Family Services of Vinton County.
If you would like to sponsor a child, please stop by the Helping Hands Christmas Angel Tree on the upper floor of the library, take an Angel tag, and purchase the gift(s) labeled on the tag. Each tag (blue for boys and pink for girls) provides the age of the child, the size (if appropriate), and the desired gift(s). Be sure to return the Angel tag with your unwrapped Christmas gifts no later than Monday, December 9th. If possible, you should place the Angel tag inside the gift box or affix it to the top with tape. The Angel tag must be returned with the gift so we can identify the child for whom it has been purchased. If you are able to purchase more than one gift, feel free to take more than one Angel tag.

£100,000 saves England's smallest town hallWork has begun to save one of England's smallest but most historic town halls, 350 years after its last modernisation. The tiny hall in Corfe Castle in Dorset can hold only 14 people but campaigners, backed by the broadcaster Jon Snow, raised £100,000 to stop it crumbling. Ken Woolaston, chairman of Corfe Castle Town Hall Trust, said: "The south wall has buckled under the weight of the damp and moss. It will be rebuilt using the original material. The building is loved by the village." Mr Snow said: "It would be a disaster if it collapsed - it's part of the weft and weave of Dorset life."

Senator Ted Cruz On Speaker Contest, Dealing With POTUS
Senator Ted Cruz joined me on the show today:
Audio: 10-08hhs-cruz
HH: Joined now by United States Senator Ted Cruz. Senator Cruz, welcome, it's good to speak with you.
TC: Hugh, thank you for having me. It's always a pleasure to be with you.
HH: Quite an amazing day in Washington, D.C.
TC: Yes.
HH: You have an extraordinary amount of influence on the House of Representatives. What do you think they ought to do?
TC: Well, it has been an extraordinary day. Kevin McCarthy's dropping out, I think, surprised everybody. And you know, what I think they should do is what I have both publicly and privately urged members of the House to do from the very beginning, which is that they should select as Speaker a strong conservative who will actually honor the promises that we made to the men and women who elected us. There is right now this incredible divide between Washington and the American people, between career politicians in Washington who routinely ignore the promises we made to the American people. And Republican leadership has been doing that over and over again. We need a change.
HH: Senator Cruz, two names have emerged from an afternoon of phoning around. One of them is your colleague from Texas, Jeb Hensarling, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. The other is Pete Roskam, sub-committee chairman on Ways and Means. Both are able men. Would you rather either of them over an interim or a long period of uncertainty, because it seems to me the House would be crippled that way?
TC: You know, Hugh, I have long said that I'm going to stay out of House leadership fights, and that's a decision for the House Republican Conference, so I'm not going to endorse any particular individual. But I will describe the characteristics that I think are important for the next Speaker to have. And the most important characteristic is a fidelity to the promises that were made to give us the majority. Continue Reading
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush On The House GOP, Marco Rubio's Vote On Syria, Defense Spending Deal
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush joined me on the show today:
Audio: 10-08hhs-bush
HH: I'm joined by former Florida Governor, Jeb Bush. Governor Bush, the media tends to overplay D.C. stories a little bit, don't you think? Chaos is a little bit strong compared to real chaos like 9/11.
JB: Absolutely, it's not chaotic, just dysfunctional.
HH: (Laughs)
JB: It just doesn't work. The big argument about the Washington Redskins, the Redskins being a pejorative term, I think Washington is a pejorative term, not the Redskins, so they'll get through it, they'll figure it out. Kevin was a good man and he still is. I don't understand why all this happens, but they'll find a leader and they'll unite and they'll move forward. They need a president that will work with them and they need a Senate that has a president that will get them through their process as well. The complete dysfunction needs to change for our democracy to work.
HH: Now Governor Bush, one of the stories out this afternoon from Fox, from Brett Baier, good reporter, is that Speaker Boehner has agreed to stay on as long as it takes even if that's through the end of the year. I think that's a disaster for Republicans. What do you think?
JB: Look I think they need to find a leader and I'm sure they're going to work on it. It will be resolved in a few days. The political world we live in, it's better to create the crisis and the tension, more people watch and all that, but this is a dysfunctional time in Washington's history. We've had 240 years of existence as a republic and most of the time, it's worked extraordinarily well, we led the world right now. It's dysfunctional, but it'll get fixed.
HH: Governor Bush, I have floated the idea that we need a big deal through September of 17 right now because the military is in such dire shape and continuing resolutions don't allow Joe Dunford, the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs or Ash Carter who's a well-respected Secretary of Defense to rebuild the military. What would you think about a deal where the President got some new domestic spending, some sugar candy, in exchange for blowing the sequester off the Pentagon and starting the rebuild soon rather than after the next president takes office?
JB: How about this? How about having the Senate say if you want a filibuster because you're opposed to providing support for the men and women in the military because if you're correct, this one-off kind of continuation budget does not allow for the kind of strategic planning that's necessary. Let's have a real filibuster. Make the Democrats filibuster until over the weekend and as long as it takes to break the filibuster because I think a majority do want to fund the military budget. We spend a lot on domestic spending because of the so-called entitlements which grow at a far faster rate than everything else. I don't think we have a spending problem in Washington, we have resolve problem, and this is a first priority. So force the hand of the Democrats that are saying they are filibustering for more spending. Make them explain why they want to gut the military.
HH: Well, I'm all for that, but they are pretty good at avoiding the spotlight when they want to and we have an international crisis. I'm sure you saw that Russian missiles hit Iran today because they don't how to fire them. Who knows when they are going to start hitting Israel because they don't how to fire them. But we have Russian troops and tanks and now so-called volunteers flooding into Syria. Can we really stand around and watch Washington play its games instead of getting real military spending to the Pentagon, Governor?
JB: That's exactly I think we need to force the hands of the Democrats. I think the majority of them want to be able to support the military. They realize that the sequester has put us in a weakened position. This has lot to do with we have strong military compared to other places even today. This has a lot to do with a lack of leadership in the White House more than anything else. Think about it, as we pull back, we signed an agreement with Iran and the leader of the Quds Forces goes to Moscow. He negotiates the deal for Iran's significant engagement in Syria as well as the Russian engagement and we have not responded in kind, and it is creating a significant problem and we have the resources, we just don't have the will.
HH: Now Governor Bush, at the debate, I got to ask Donald Trump and then Senator Rubio about the refusal of the United States Congress to support President Obama's request to strike Syria two years ago. You did not get a chance to respond to that.
JB: Right.
HH: What was your opinion of the rejection of the Congress of the President's appeal two years ago?
JB: Well, I think the appeal was pretty tepid, but he did make the appeal and I think at that point it wasn't popular amongst some parts of the Republican Party, so I think people were sticking their fingers in the breeze. And that's wrong. Look, being popular is not we're talking about. Being President of the United States requires having clear vision, having a backbone, and I thought that that vote was uncalled vote. We should support the president because that was better than inaction. No action at all, we see what happens. The lack of action now creates chaos and meanwhile, Assad continues barrel-bomb the innocent civilians, we have a refugee crisis, Russia's on the march, our allies don't know where we stand. Our support for the remnants of Free Syrian Army is tepid at best. People are looking for American leadership and they're not getting and I think the Congress should show support at that point.
HH: Was Senator Rubio wrong not to do that? His answer was that it would been a pinprick, it would have been worse than nothing.
JB: Then their responsibility, having oversight responsibility of the executive branch should have been brought to bear. And of course, the president is not firm on these things, but asking for the authorization I think was appropriate thing to do and he should have gotten it. And then a strategy should have been forthcoming which he hasn't done. I agree with Senator Rubio that the president has not been forthcoming with a strategy, but when had a chance to show support for the creation of one, he didn't do it, and I think that turned out to be a bad decision.
HH: Now I want to turn to bigger thing, are you a movie guy, GOernor Bush? Do you go to money movies?
JB: I used to (laughs). I don't anymore.
HH: There are two out now, "Sicario" and the "Martian." And "Sicario" is about the drug trafficking and "Martian" is about space exploration like the depravity of human kind and the highest stuff that we do. Which way are we going? Are we going to "Sicario" vision of the future or ware we going towards the "Martian" vision of the future?
JB: I think we're temporarily not as aspirational as we need to be. We are aspiring to the big things. We could be the world's economic superpower if we were serious about forging consensus on how to tax and regulate the race in the energy revolution and fixing our broken immigration system. All those things are holding us back and I think as people don't think the system works them, they get more depressed, more pessimistic, they fall prey to the appeals of negativity and frankly, we do have a problem of an epidemic of heroin use and other things like that, but we can turn this around. This is not the worst time in American history. With the proper leadership, I think we can be inspired to be dynamic again and aspire to dream bigger dreams and so my hope is that we move towards the aspirational side of our thinking.
HH: Should the Senate support the Trans-Pacific Partnership as you've seen it outlines as part of that move free trade and a booming world economy?
JB: I think they should, but I haven't the specifics of the agreement and so I'm a little cautious of coming out forthright and say that I'm for it. My instincts are to support free and fair trade, and in the case of Asia particularly, which has non-tariff barriers and tariff barriers which are pretty high and we don't, my expectation is that when we look into this agreement we'll find that they're tearing down barriers more, so that's one point, second, if we don't participate in the Asian trade, the void will be field by China and the standards for trade, all of the things that we respect in terms of the rule of law will be a totally different approach and our allies, the best way to show Japan that we got their back, that our treaty obligations are important to us, is to work with them on a free trade agreement. So I think it's the right approach, I haven't seen the specifics. I found it interesting that Hilary Clinton in her book that she apparently sent me talks ebulliently about supporting the Trans-Pacific Trade agreement and now has come out four-squared against it because [of] again popular sentiment of the here and now apparently on the left as opposed to this, and that kind of leadership is exactly what we don't need anymore. We need people that have thought it through, have backbone, persuade people towards their cause, whether it's popular or not, stick with it, and make things happen.
HH: It's not popular right now to say, "Do a deal with the president to get defense spending." I'm going to finish where I began Governor Bush. We're in the sequester. It's a nightmare. You know it's a nightmare. If he said, "I'll give you three bucks for every buck of domestic," would you urge Republicans to do that deal?
JB: I always talk to the other side, but I think it's time now to test the will of Democrats because I think they will break, and I think that's the first step. It is clear to me that you're absolutely correct that the sequester is creating so much uncertainty that is putting our troops in harm's way, and in a time of great of uncertainty, Russia and other countries don't believe we have the resolve, and they look at our budget, and they don't think we're totally committed to maintaining our obligations in the world. And we should lead the world. So how we get to that point, we may have a different tactic Hugh, but I think the objective is the right one.
HH: But we see Russian troops, so-called "volunteers." They are the black-men that invaded Ukraine. They are now in Syria. Do we really have time to screw around a $100 billion in domestic spending if they need $300 billion in defense spending?
JB: We have the flexibility to put the resources on the ground to push back against Russia and to create a strategy to deal with ISIS both in Iraq and in Syria. We need to the warriors on the sorties, we need to have a strategy, we need to listen to the commanders in the field and we need to act. And we have those resources right now. You're correct, though, in the long-term, with the sequester, we won't have that capability, and that's the issue going forward.
HH: Governor Jeb Bush, always great to talk to you. Thank you, Governor.

- Comcast will divest Time Warner Cable systems serving approximately 1.4 million existing Time Warner Cable customers directly to Charter for cash. Charter expects to fund the purchase with proceeds from debt, and to have approximately a 5 times debt to EBITDA leverage ratio at closing.
- Comcast and Charter will transfer assets serving approximately 1.6 million existing Time Warner Cable customers and 1.6 million Charter customers in a tax-efficient like kind exchange, improving the geographic presence of both companies, leading to greater operational efficiencies, improved technology deployment and enhanced customer service.
- Comcast will form and spin off to its shareholders a new, independent, publicly-traded company that will operate systems serving approximately 2.5 million existing Comcast customers. Comcast shareholders, including the former Time Warner Cable shareholders, are expected to own approximately 67 percent of SpinCo, while New Charter is expected to directly own approximately 33 percent of SpinCo. SpinCo expects to incur leverage of approximately 5 times estimated pro-forma EBITDA, and New Charter will then acquire its interest in SpinCo by issuing New Charter stock to Comcast shareholders (including former Time Warner Cable shareholders). SpinCo's nine-member Board of Directors will include six independent directors and three directors designated by Charter. Comcast will hold no ownership interest in SpinCo (or Charter) and will have no role in managing SpinCo.

Actually, 1.d4 e5 2.e4 Nc6 3.dxe5 Nxe5 4.f4 is quite playable for white.
But he isn't basically a full pawn up is his point.
I see the point. But some players prefer to charge right in and attack, as in the f4 line I mentioned, rather than the more common 2.dxe5 Nc6. Of course, it usually transposes after 1.d4 e5 2.dxe5 Nc6 3.e4 Nxe5 4.f4. I'm not sure what difference the move order makes, except that in the 2.e4 line, white has the option of the (dubious) move 3.d5. The game Miles-Huebner 1985 went:1. d4 e5 2. dxe5 Qh4 3. Nf3 Qa4 4. Nc3 Qa5 5. e4 draw!? I wonder if it was some kind of joke......
I recently had White against the Elephant Gambit 1.e4 e5 2. Nf3 d5 and found that by the time I had barely got a good game-I was running out of time--it is a tough gambit to play against if you never experienced it before.
I love playing either side of the Elephant. As white, after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d5, I sometimes try 3.d4. I think 3.Nxe5 and 3.exd5 are more common, and probably better. But 3.d4 is playable and often throws black off in fast games. But one time in a bullet game I forgot to take my knight "off-prise" at move four: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d5 3.d4 dxe4 4.Bc4?? (4.Nxe5) exf3 5.Qxf3 Nf6 6.dxe5 Bg4 7.Qxb7 (I thought I was getting my piece back) Qd1 #...........
Also, the variation of the Soller, 1.d4 e5 2.dxe5 Nc6 3.Nf3 Bc5 (instead of 3...f6 immediately) 4.Nc3 f6, may be an improvement.....

It is easy to forget, as the world watches China advance brazenly into Africa and lay ever more assertive claims to the South China Sea, that Beijing's foreign policy starts at home. The outside world, as David Eimer's timely travelogue, The Emperor Far Away, so evocatively demonstrates, encroaches deep into China's vast borderlands. These are foreign, no matter how noisily Beijing tries to convince itself otherwise.
Eimer reports from China's frontiers where the landscape, ethnicity, faith and attitudes towards the Chinese Communist Party are at wild, thrilling variance with one another. Some of what he shows us is beautiful, some
