Press Release: January 27, 2013
National Archives at Kansas City
Fifty Years of Civil Rights: The Movement that Changed the World Panel Discussion at the National Archives
For More Information Contact:
Kimberlee Ried, 816-268-8072
Kansas City, (MO)… On Thursday, February 20 at 6:30 p.m., the National Archives at Kansas City, in partnership with the Greater Kansas City Black History Study Group, will host a panel discussion titled Fifty Years of Civil Rights: The Movement that Changed the World. A 6:00 p.m. reception will precede the program.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was intended to outlaw major forms of discrimination against racial, ethnic, national and religious minorities, and women. It ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace and by facilities that served the general public, also known as "public accommodations." The United States Congress asserted its authority to legislate under several different parts of the United States Constitution, principally its power to regulate interstate commerce under Article One (section 8), its duty to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment, and its duty to protect voting rights under the Fifteenth Amendment. The Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on July 2, 1964, at the White House.
This panel will provide the public an opportunity to meet a group of local Kansas City community activists who lived through segregation, broke barriers, and helped to create equal opportunities for blacks in Kansas City and other cities across the country. The public will hear their stories of triumphs and challenges during a turbulent time in American history. Panel participants include: Shirley Bolden, Lee Bohannon, Willie Dove, Elvis Gibson, Edith Haney Galvin, Irene Marcus, and Richard Tolbert. Opening remarks will be provided by Dennis Robinson, president of the Greater Kansas City Black History Study Group. The moderator will be Anita Russell, president of the Kansas City chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Local jazz legend Mary Moore will perform an a cappella opening of a Civil Rights-era song as a part of the program.
To make a reservation for this free program call 816-268-8010 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The National Archives at Kansas City is one of 15 facilities nationwide where the public has access to Federal archival records. It is home to historical records dating from the 1820s to the 1990s created or received by Federal agencies in Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. For more information, call 816-268-8000 or visit us online.

Sustainable Shadow Banking
Guillermo Ordonez
NBER Working Paper No. 19022
Commercial banks are subject to regulation that restricts their investments. When banks are concerned for their reputation, however, they could self-regulate and invest more efficiently. Hence, a shadow banking that arises to avoid regulation has the potential to improve welfare. Still, reputation concerns depend on future economic prospects and may suddenly disappear, generating a collapse of shadow banking and a return to traditional banking, with a decline in welfare. I discuss how a combination of traditional regulation and cross reputation subsidization may enhance shadow banking and make it more sustainable.

Katter: power station 'lunacy'
- From: Townsville Bulletin
- February 12, 2014
THE proposal to build a coal-fired power station in Townsville's southern suburbs has been slammed as "horrendously expensive" and "environmentally damaging".
Herbert MP Ewen Jones yesterday proposed a new coal power station be built near the Sun Metals refinery in Stuart to ease the crippling cost of electricity for industrial users, which pay about 20 per cent more than competitors in southeast Queensland because of the cost of transmission.
However,But Kennedy MP Bob Katter, who was once an energy minister in the conservative Bjelke-Petersen government before defecting and eventually starting his own political party, said the proposal to builtbuild a power station away from a coal source but near a suburban area was "lunacy".
"It's fair to say that building a power station away from the coal mouth (of a mine) would make it horrendously expensive because of the cost of transporting the coal," he said.
"And it is double lunacy to build it in a big city of about 200,000 people, especially one that is growing like Townsville, because (residential development) will fill all the areas around it."
North Queensland Conservation Council co-ordinator Wendy Tubman said there should be a focus on trying to increase the capacity of renewable energy generation.
"Building another coal power station could be very potentially damaging to the environment, particularly the Great Barrier Reef," she said.
"And another thing we have to consider is whether it is right to keep developing on our coastline because numerous studies have shown the negative impacts on the Reef from coastal developments."
The calls to build a new base-load power station come as the Queensland Competition Authority is due to host a workshop on the future of electricity prices in Townsville at Jupiters Hotel tomorrow.
Mr Katter said the cheapest way to produce electricity in North Queensland was to build new sugar mills with increased capacity to generate electricity from byproducts.
"We have a chance to produce some of the world's cheapest electricity because (the process of producing power from sugar cane fibre) has an operational cost of almost zero," he said.
"There would of course be the capital expenditure cost (to build the project) and service the borrowings, but once it is up and running the costs would be next to nothing."
Mr Katter said the Federal Government needed to support the Pentland project, which includes building dams and three new sugar mills in the Charters Towers area to produce cheap electricity by burning the sugar cane fibre.

Co-Director for Robotic Surgery
Conditions Treated:
About Me
I am a board-certified urologic surgeon who specializes in robotic surgery. I serve as Co-Director of the robotic surgery program and lead Memorial Sloan Kettering's operating room robotic subcommittee.
I returned to the Center after spending 20 years in a surgical oncology practice in Connecticut, where my work centered on the diagnosis and treatment of men and women of all ages with urologic cancers. Over that time I had the privilege of caring for many patients and their families who were faced with a wide variety of urologic malignancies.
During the last six years my efforts have been exclusively devoted to developing an expertise in the use of robotic surgery to treat patients with cancers of the genitourinary system. I came back to Memorial Sloan Kettering specifically to foster the development of the robotic surgical program at the Center. My goal in this new position is to optimize the use of this technology and to ensure that the very best results are achieved for each and every patient.
Robotic surgery is an evolving technology that must be carefully performed and rigorously evaluated. I have done over one thousand robotic cancer operations and have demonstrated that this innovative approach to surgery can achieve superlative outcomes while minimizing the side effects that can result from any surgical intervention.
My clinical research focuses on the novel application of new surgical technologies and developing optimal cancer treatment strategies for each individual patient.
- Clinical Expertise: Robotic Surgery; Prostate Cancer; Bladder Cancer
- Languages Spoken: English
- Education: MD, Georgetown University School of Medicine

We had people at the house yesterday so I decided to try a few new recipes – not experimental, just tried and true recipes from other people. I wanted to go with crowd pleasers and made sugar cookies, oatmeal cookies and chocolate chip.
The sugar cookie recipe wasn't worth mentioning. Bleh. But I'm not going to say which one it was until I make it a second time.
The oatmeal cookies were from Eliana at A Chica Bakes. If you're looking for a recipe that makes a ton of cookies, this one's worth a try. I halved the recipe, which may explain why mine came out so much thinner. Either way, they were good. The recipe is adapted from Baking at Home with The Culinary Institute of America and I'd be interested in seeing the original recipe from the book.
The third cookie was Best Big Fat Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies from allrecipes. After making them, I remembered I had made them and why I had not made them since. They're good, but the texture's not my cup of tea. They're fat and moist and almost cakey, but the "shell" of the cookie isn't very crispy. Still, they were the first to go. I'm not sure if it's because people love that type of texture of if people just like chocolate chip.
As for today, I'm going to take another shot at the Calypso Crunch Cookies. Will report later.

Do you have a really hard question about paid search marketing, but can't find the answer?
Well, Marin Software along with Search Engine Watch and ClickZ has just launched "Ask the PPC Experts." (No, I didn't write the press release that went out this morning. But, thanks for asking.)
This free online forum allows marketers to get immediate answers to even the toughest paid search questions directly from leading industry experts. But wait! There's more!
Every day from now until July 5, 2010, you are invited to submit a question about paid search on www.paidsearchexperts.com. A team of industry experts from Marin Software, ClickZ, and Search Engine Watch will review the questions and pick one to be answered each day.
Marketers are encouraged to ask the experts their most challenging questions; no query is too complex. The person who provides the best question (most challenging, most relevant, and most unique) by March 5, 2010 will receive a free conference pass to Search Engine Strategies New York, to be held March 22-26, 2010.
"Paid search is one of the most challenging and technically demanding forms of marketing - but, if done right, it's also one of the most effective at driving sales," Chris Lien, CEO of Marin Software, said in a press release. "We launched 'Ask the PPC Experts' to give search marketers an open forum where they could receive real-world answers to their toughest questions from some of the most experienced minds in search marketing," he added.

A trip to Target is a regular highlight of any over-the-border jaunt. From designer collaborations to cool design, Target has it all, from blush to bedding to bathing suits to bleach.
[nggallery id=312]Finally, after years of waiting, Target is finally coming to Canada.
We were in Toronto for Target's swishy launch party, complete with tasty appetizers (mini banh mi sandwiches and fancy cookies), healthy carrot juice-based cocktails, a figure skating fashion show, and celebs galore including interior designer Nate Berkus, make-up artist Sonia Kashuk, Food Network host Giada De Laurentiis, and stylist Kate Young, all of whom have a collection in the upcoming stores.
Target will also be partnering with iconic Canadian label, Roots, for a limited-edition collection, as well as a promised commitment to offering the American designer collaborations we've coveted from afar for too many years. We're looking forward to their upcoming Montreal announcements, as the brand has hinted that lines by local designers will also be showing up in our stores.
For now, there's no official word on the exact date and location of the first Montreal Target stores. But we'll be sure to let you know as soon as we do.
Stay tuned next week for our interview with make-up artist Sonia Kashuk on her line for Canadian Target stores.

180th meridian
The 180th meridian is the line of longitude 180, which runs mostly through the Pacific Ocean from pole to pole.
In theory, it should be a meridian like any other. In OSM, there's two copies at ±180° longitude, and they mark the end of the world.
Here's the mapnik rendering of the 180th meridian passing through Chukotka.
Sample data
There's a lake in Chukotka that crosses the meridian at http://openstreetmap.org/browse/way/31254026.
Software support
This section should summarize to what extent various tools deal with the 180th meridian gracefully.
All layers on the slippy map appear to have problems with rendering coastline near 180°, and with ways crossing the 180th meridian. The data browser doesn't handle ways crossing the 180th meridian nicely due to a limitation in OpenLayers.
The API map call does not allow for bounding boxes crossing the 180th meridian.
All editors treat the 180th meridian as the end of the world, hence have problems editing data that crosses it.
Using some scrolling and zooming, it is possible to edit such data in JOSM to some degree of success. It isn't feasible in Potlatch (example).

SAND FLAT, TEXAS (Johnson County). Sand Flat is a rural community located on Farm Road 4 about six miles southeast of Cleburne in south central Johnson County. Settlers arrived in the area by the late 1850s, and the first pioneers included the Bennett, Walraven, and Boatwright families. On August 30, 1868, the New Hope Baptist Church of Christ was organized and Rev. J. R. Clarke served as pastor from 1869 to 1875. In 1874 the church name was changed to the Sand Flat Baptist Church of Christ. The earliest marked graves in the Sand Flat Cemetery date back to 1876. In 1882 the town received a post office under the name of Cuba, and in 1884 the Texas State Gazetteer listed Cuba with a population of fifty, supported by the church, a district school, gristmill, cotton gin, and several other businesses. By the mid-1890s the population had increased to seventy-five, and in 1898–99 the two-room school had thirty-two students. After the post office closed in 1904 the area was referred to as Sand Flat. County highway maps in the 1930s still showed the school as well as two businesses and scattered farms. In 1968 the church celebrated its 100th anniversary, and by the mid-1980s church membership consisted of about 300 people. No population figures were available in 2000.

Revenue forecasts show state is not done cutting for 2010-11
By Marianne Goodland
Colorado's June revenue forecasts, released on Monday, showed the state is going to have to make more cuts in the 2010-11 budget, on top of the more than $1 billion already slashed from the state budget during the most recent legislative session. The next round of cuts will be much smaller, to the tune of $75 million. Gov. Bill Ritter is responsible for submitting a plan to lawmakers to come up with those cuts, and he said Monday he would do that later this summer.
But if Congress doesn't act soon on a jobs bill currently stalled in the Senate, $75 million will be just a small drop in the bucket.
To balance the 2010-11 budget, lawmakers decided to include about $245 million in enhanced Federal Medicaid Assistance Percentages (FMAP) dollars, money that they hoped would be in the bank by the end of 2010. The enhanced FMAP funding began under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act last year to address increased Medicaid caseloads and high unemployment due to the recession. According to the Colorado Fiscal Policy Institute, Colorado would get at least $750 million over three years: $239.7 million in 2008-09; $317.7 million in 2009-10; and $185.9 million through December 31, 2010. If an extension is passed by Congress, another $245 million would be available. The legislative decision to include the hoped-for FMAP extension was based on strong support in the U.S. Senate, where 63 senators voted to support it.
At least 30 states have incorporated enhanced FMAP payments into their state budgets for 2010-11, and the National Governors Association lists 47 governors as supporting the extension of the FMAP payments to June 30, 2011. In a June 22 letter to Congressional leaders asking that they support the extension, the NGA said that 2010-11 will be the worst year in the recession for state budgets before "modest revenue growth" is expected to begin in 2012, and that states face aggregate budget shortfalls of $127 billion. "Delaying action until the end of the calendar year will force states to act now to reduce pending budget gaps by enacting further cuts in their workforce and core services, both of which will serve as a drag on the economic recovery," the letter said.
The enhanced FMAP funding passed the House months ago in two different bills but is now stalled in negotiations between the House and Senate. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, discussions are ongoing in the Senate regarding a scaled-down FMAP package, which has the support of several swing-vote senators. Last week, Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., and Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, said they would present a separate measure on the FMAP extension, but it was dismissed by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., as inadequate without the rest of the jobs package.
Ritter said Monday he would be watching the FMAP situation throughout the summer and is hopeful that an extension will pass. But if Congress does not pass the extension, probably by its August recess that begins August 7, Ritter said he would have to make more cuts.
The revenue forecasts released Monday by the Legislative Council and the Office of State Planning and Budgeting differ slightly, but both say the state's budget for 2009-10 and 2010-11 fell short of revenue projections. According to the OSPB forecast, the 2009-10 budget was out of balance by $74.5 million. The Legislative Council forecast had a different take, stating that the state budget was balanced but had only $80.9 million in general funds in the statutory reserve, about 1.2 percent, but below the 2 percent statutory reserve required in state law. That was after action by the Ritter administration last week to delay into the next fiscal year payments to Medicaid providers, to bring in about $38 million for 2009-10; and to tap into a CollegeInvest scholarship fund that was being phased out, about $29.8 million.
No further action is necessary by Ritter or lawmakers to balance the 2009-10 budget. According to Lisa Esgar, OSPB deputy director, the statutory reserve will be used to balance the budget at fiscal year's end.
That leaves 2010-11 to deal with, but lawmakers are facing much bigger concerns about the 2011-12 budget.
Monday, the newly-configured Joint Budget Committee, now chaired by Rep. Mark Ferrandino, D-Denver, met with economists from the Legislative Council and OSPB to review the forecasts.
"We're more optimistic than the last time," said Chief Economist Natalie Mullis of Legislative Council. "We have money in the bank at the end of the year and next year," she told lawmakers. But that was tempered by comments from Kate Watkins, also of Legislative Council, who said high consumer debt and high unemployment are slowing Colorado's climb out of the recession.
Those factors will continue into next year, she told the JBC, and while the economy will continue to grow, slowly, it will be marked by "fits and starts" rather than steady growth.
The forecasts were down for June, according to Mullis, because estimated payments for individual income tax were lower than expected. In addition, she said, people and businesses have been unable to pay their tax bills or are caught up in the resolution process with the Department of Revenue. Instead of a cushion of $335 million the state will end up with a reserve of just $80.9 million at year's end. Mullis said that should be sufficient to cover any end-of-fiscal year obligations. "It's possible that [80.9 million] is too close to call but I think we're okay," she said.
Fiscal year 2010-11 will start with less money than expected, Mullis said; enough to cover the 2010-11 budget passed by lawmakers but not enough to maintain the 4 percent statutory reserve required under legislation passed earlier this year. As a result, she explained, state law requires Ritter to come up with a plan to bring the reserve back to at least 2 percent; Legislative Council estimates the cuts at $37 million; OSPB's estimate is $75 million.
Both revenue forecasts assume the state will get that enhanced FMAP funding, but if that doesn't happen the budget will be short $245 million.
The outlook for 2011-12 is worse. On July 1, 2011, the state will no longer have funds from the ARRA that it relied on to balance the 2010-11 budget, about $617 million. And with mandatory spending increases that shortfall will likely be closer to $1 billion, according to economists.
Even though he will not be governor when the 2011-12 budget goes into effect, Ritter is responsible for submitting a 2011-12 budget to the JBC on November 1. But for the immediate future, Ritter is focusing on the shortfall in the 2010-11 budget. "We've cut spending and closed shortfalls of almost $3.5 billion and more to come," he said Monday. He said he expects to submit the plan to cut $75 million in August, and "nothing is off the table." Ritter said he hoped to spare K-12 any more cuts to cover the $75 million but if the FMAP extension doesn't come through that could change. Ritter also said he did not plan to suspend or eliminate more tax credits or exemptions as was done by the Legislature earlier this year.
"We will ensure we do what is necessary to keep the budget balanced and remain aggressive about economic development and economic recovery," he said.
Ferrandino, in a statement issued later in the day, said the state is in a position to recover. "But we will keep cutting government back, just as families around the state are cutting back," he said. Ferrandino also criticized Republicans for wanting to give corporations special tax breaks and restore funding of pet programs, which he said Democrats had resisted in an effort to prevent larger cuts.
"It's not as bad as it could have been," said Sen. Mary Hodge, D-Brighton, sitting in her first JBC hearing as a member of the committee.
But Republicans were not so optimistic, and charged that the state's economy is worse than the forecasts would indicate. Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen, expressed concerns about continuing bank failures, and unwillingness by banks to extend credit to small businesses. She said she is aware that two downtown Denver high-rise commercial properties are about to be turned over to their banks (she did not identify those buildings). Gerou, a first-time JBC member, said she had hoped to see a better economy and budget, said the state is "not out of the woods. Most people don't feel optimistic" about the economy, she told The Colorado Statesman. "Every citizen in Colorado has had to cut in the last 12-18 months; the government has to do the same."
In the Senate GOP response, Senate Minority Leader Mike Kopp, R-Littleton, said the state is faring worse than the rest of the nation in recovering from the recession, and attributed it to "Democrats' anti-business policies" such as repealing tax credits and exemptions, and new oil and gas regulations approved last year. Sen. Greg Brophy, R-Wray, said Ritter and Democrats have been "taxing, feeing, fining, and penalizing Coloradans every way they can to increase state revenues." While citizens have had to tighten their belts and businesses are laying-off workers, "government seems to be spending more money, hiring more workers, and raising taxes to pay all these new bills."

Undercover officer under review
|PoliceOne Staff Report
(ARLINGTON, Texas) -- An undercover Garland police officer is under review after someone stole a small arsenal from his car while it was parked in front of a local restaurant.
Garland police told the Arlington Morning News that a fully automatic M-16 rifle, 850 rounds of ammunition, three handguns, rifle scopes, body armor, a police radio and binoculars were taken about noon on Jan. 5 from the parking lot of On the Border restaurant in Arlington.
"These were narcotics officers who had just finished an investigation in Arlington and were heading back to Garland," Lt. Joel Bettes, Garland public information officer, told the News.
"It will all be looked at by us. Our internal affairs will look at it, and at least the supervisor of that division will see if anything needs to be changed to see what should have been done differently," Bettes was quoted as saying.
Because the officer works undercover, his name is being withheld, but he remains on active duty. Authorities would not say how the weapons were secured.
Arlington Police Sgt. James Hawthorne told the News that he did not think the theft was related to the seven prisoners that escaped a maximum-security prison in Kenedy.

Wisconsin Republicans have retaken full control of state government, winning majorities in both the Senate and Assembly and erasing Democrats' gains in last summer's recalls.
Results from Tuesday, Nov. 6 elections show Republicans captured an open Senate seat and four incumbent GOP senators fended off challengers, allowing them to capture the majority, and their colleagues in the Assembly easily held onto their advantage in that chamber.
With Republican Gov. Scott Walker in office, the GOP now has complete control in Madison. And the ramifications are huge: Republicans will be able to pass legislation without a single vote from Democrats and Walker should be able to push through the next state budget with ease, setting himself up for his 2014 re-election bid.
Still, the governor was careful not to alienate Democrats on Tuesday night.
"I look forward to working with members of both parties to grow our economy and create jobs," Walker said in a statement.
Republicans rode a wave of national discontent over the flagging economy to win the Senate, Assembly and governor's office in 2010. They used their power to pass a contentious Walker proposal that stripped most public workers of nearly all their union rights.
Enraged Democrats ousted two Republican senators in recall elections in August 2011. They launched another round of recalls last spring, forcing Walker, Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch and four more GOP senators into elections.
Democrats managed to chase only one Republican senator from office in those elections, but it was enough to earn a 17-16 majority in the Senate. That edge grew to 17-15 after Sen. Rich Zipperer, R-Pewaukee, left to join Walker's staff. But Republicans have held that seat for decades and are expected to keep it in a special election in December, meaning Democrats really had only a one-seat advantage.
The Democrats' majority has been mostly symbolic anyway since the legislative session isn't scheduled to begin until January. As the rancor over Walker's union law faded, Republicans went back on offense heading into Tuesday's elections.
By early Wednesday morning, election results showed that Republican Tom Tiffany had defeated Democrat Susan Sommer for an open seat in far northeastern Wisconsin's 12th Senate District. All four GOP incumbents who faced re-election easily won.
That left the balance of power at 16-16, but with Zipperer's seat bound to turn red in December, the GOP will have a 17-16 edge when the session starts.
Their advantage could grow to 18-15. Republican challenger Rick Gudex had a 590-vote lead over Democrat Sen. Jessica King in east-central Wisconsin's 18th Senate District as of early Wednesday morning, but King had refused to concede.
"Whatever," Senate Republican Leader Scott Fitzgerald, R-Juneau, said of King's refusal to give up. "That's her call; 590 votes is a lot to overcome. I fully expect to be at 18" Republican seats.
Assembly Republicans went into Election Day with a formidable 59-39-1 advantage in that chamber. Three GOP incumbents met with defeat but Republicans picked up three other seats to offset the losses. Five races were still undecided early Wednesday morning, but they didn't matter in the math -- Republicans still retained an overwhelming majority.
Rep. Robin Vos, R-Burlington, co-chairman of the Legislature's powerful budget committee and one of the leading contenders for Assembly speaker next session, said voters realized Republicans held true to their promises of balancing the state's finances without raising taxes.
"It was a good night," Vos said. "The quality of our candidates was truly superior."

Parents and teachers snapped a flurry of pictures on Wednesday at York City Hall as students were honored for their winning artwork.
The five students in 5th through 8th grade who won the Keep York Beautiful 2012 Poster Art Contest received certificates from Mayor Kim Bracey for their creations, along with a framed copy of their artwork and a gift card.
Bracey congratulated the students and reminded everyone to continue their participation in 10 on Tuesday, a city initiative that encourages people to take 10 minutes on Tuesdays to pick up trash and help to keep the city clean.
The theme for the poster contest was "Stash the Trash," and the goal of the contest is to raise awareness with young people about litter and to get them to help with the problem, said Bill Meals of Keep York Beautiful.
Artists from York Arts judged the posters and chose a winner in each grade level.
Emiyariel Mendez, from New Hope Academy Charter, won the Judge's Choice award.
"I was trying to do something different and since it was about recycling I did green and I made the middle a little darker so it would pop out," said Mendez.
The grade winners were 5th grade: Todjiauna Mack, Lincoln Charter School; 6th grade: Abnel Rivera, Devers Elementary School, 7th grade: Elijah Morales, New Hope Academy Charter School; 8th grade: Anyah Demaio, New Hope Academy Charter School.
Abnel Rivera said his poster depicted his neighborhood.
"They are trying to fix the houses and keep the community clean," Rivera said.
His art teacher, Marcie Mitrovich, said that every single student asked if they could do more, so they are holding more art contests in the coming months.

M. Hulot's Holiday (1953): In a lovelier era, August was mandatory vacation time for the French, and the strain of enforced relaxation shows in Jacques Tati's classic, his first film for bumbling creation M. Hulot. Holidaying alone in a scenic seaside resort, Hulot proceeds to unwittingly spread minor havoc. He breaks a kayak. He sets off fireworks while everyone sleeps. And he lightly flirts with a girl he'd never have the nerve to seriously approach. Like all Tati films, Holiday is essentially a silent comedy from the sound era, all while tapping a deep reservoir of melancholy.
Bonjour Tristesse (1958): Cecile, 17, is spending her summer on the French Riviera with her cool dad. The bad news: Cool dad has taken up with another woman, ruining their borderline-questionable father-daughter bond. Adapting a bestseller written by 18-year-old Francoise Sagan, director Otto Preminger coldly observes as Cecile bullheadedly ruins her father's happiness—but without wrecking what doubles as cracking-good travel porn.
Long Weekend (1978): Taking a page from Jean-Luc Godard's Weekend, this Aussie exploitation film depicts a trip taken by a despicable couple, only one who take out their hostilities on Mother Nature, not their fellow man. On a camping trip, our anti-heroes blithely pollute, litter, spray incesticide and kill an innocent dugong. Naturally, Mother Nature strikes back, but the nifty part of Colin Eggleston's horror is that it never turns overtly supernatural. Karma's just a bitch.
Le Rayon Vert/Summer (1986): Young Delphine (Marie Riviere) is set for Greece when her travel companion suddenly bails on her. She winds up instead at a house in Cherbourg with a bunch of strangers. It doesn't work out. So, she tries the Alps, also alone. Too many tourists. Will third luck be the charm in seaside Biarritz? No. Eric Rohmer, the poet of summer films, depicts the drain of vacationing, and the cruel expectations society has of single women.
Funny Games (1997): Before they're even done unpacking, a wealthy family hitting up their lakeside summer home is visited by a pair of well-mannered young men in tennis clothes. These visitors then proceed to torture and kill them, periodically stopping to wink to the audience, as if to ask why anyone would willingly watch such horrors. Michael Haneke's breakthrough film is the kind of movie you only want to ever watch once, if at all. And because he's a total bastard, that's why he remade it, shot-for-shot, for America, meaning completists had to get traumatized twice.
Brokedown Palace (1999): Jonathan Kaplan's hysterical drama rehashes 1978's Turkish prison saga Midnight Express for Claire Danes and Kate Beckinsale, who celebrate high school graduation by heading to Thailand, only to get busted on bullshit drug charges. Danes exacerbated the film's fear of otherness by remarking about how Manila, the Philippines city in which it was shot, "smelled of cockroaches, with rats all over"—leading city officials to declare her "persona non grata."

Hi. I'm Susie Meserve, writer, teacher, editor, and mom.
I write about anxiety, love, parenting, (in)fertility, and other realities. My personal essays have appeared in the New York Times Motherlode blog, Salon, Elle, and Offbeat Mama.
My poetry has appeared in Indiana Review, Gulf Coast, Bateau, Redactions, Cream City Review, Willamette Week, Toad the Journal, Terminus, Red Rock Review, The Cafe Review, Cimarron Review, and others, and is forthcoming in Rock & Sling.
You can read some of my work on the Read page.
I've recently finished writing a memoir called "Quiver," the story of how I overcame the terrible anxiety disorder that had ruled my life since I was a child by falling in love with a fearless man. I'm currently seeking representation. If you're interested, you can find me on the Contact page. Read an excerpt here.
Hear about my progress–and other things!–on my Blog.

Not lookin' so groovy
Talk about a fashion faux pas .
Secretary of State John Kerry momentarily ditched his usual stiff suit look during a recent trip to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperative summit in Bali by donning a casual purple shirt. The shirts, called "endeks," are made of traditional Balinese textiles.
It was not a look that the famously stuffy Kerry could pull off successfully. He looked less like a diplomat than he did a member of the '60s psychedelic rock band Jefferson Airplane.
Still, we can't shake the feeling that since he returned home, Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz, have been padding around her Fox Chapel estate in matching, goofy-looking endeks despite snickering from the servants. After all, endeks look as comfortable as pajama tops.
SANTORUM'S STUDIO SUING EX-EXECS. It's a bad scene at the Christian movie studio run by Rick Santorum , formerU.S. senator from Pennsylvania and 2012 GOP presidential wannabe.
The Washington Post reported that the Dallas-based EchoLight Studio is suing two former executives for allegedly attempting to sabotage the company. One defendant allegedly threatened to "malign" Santorum in show-business publications. The other supposedly took control of the studio's Facebook account and labeled himself the studio's founder just days after he was fired.
EchoLight's first offering is a Christmas movie starring Susan Boyle, a former "Britain's Got Talent" contestant. If you find EchoLight's litigation far more intriguing than its initial cinematic release, we wholeheartedly share that sentiment.
FOR A FLAB-FREE PENNSYLVANIA, VOTE PAWLOWSKI. It certainly doesn't resemble the typical campaign website.
Supporters of Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski, a Democrat gubernatorial hopeful, likely will be confused if they visit the website pawlowskiforgovernor.com. Instead of pictures of and information about Pawlowski, the site features a Japanese-language advertisement for a Japanese product that promises to get rid of cellulite and thick thighs.
The Morning Call of Allentown reported that the site is owned by Internet domain registrar GoDaddy, which sells space on unwanted domain pages to companies such as the one peddling the anti-cellulite cream. The Pawlowksi campaign is attempting to purchase that domain name.
In the meantime, Pawlowski supporters can go to pawlowskiforpa.com if they are more interested in the candidate than the cream.
WORKING BOTH SIDES.Joe Conti, former Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board chief executive, is keeping busy in "retirement."
After Conti retired from his $156,700-a-year LCB position on Feb. 2, he immediately caused an uproar when he returned as a part-time, $80-an-hour consultant to the agency. He served in that role until July.
Now, the former Republican state senator from Bucks County has registered as a lobbyist and represents unionized state-store employees.
NO PAY, NO PLAY. Excela Health's efforts to alert people in Greensburg about Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October cost the organization $20.
Greensburg has an ordinance that requires anyone wanting to put up a banner to pay $20 for a permit, city officials said.
Excela's Breast Cancer Awareness Month banner went up on the 450-space J. Edward Hutchinson Parking Garage at 560 Shearer St. after the permit fee was paid.
City officials said they didn't want to look as though they were favoring Excela by opting not to charge the permit fee for its banner.

Apple takes home SID awards for iPad, iPhone 4 displays
updated 12:45 pm EDT, Tue May 17, 2011
iPhone 4 includes several advances, group says
Two Apple screens have won Gold awards as part of the Society for Information Display's Display of the Year Awards. Taking home the event's titular Gold prize is the Retina Display on the iPhone 4, which has four times the pixel density of earlier iPhones and provides better viewing angles than most LCDs by way of IPS technology. The display in fact has several technical advancements, the Society elaborates.
These include a customized LTPS TFT backplane with organic passivation and optimized pixel design, as well as auto-adjusting brightness based on an ambient light sensor. Special IPS compensation polarizer technology contributes to 800:1 contrast and consistent color, the latter of which is also 8-bit. The display uses a thin driver IC with a small footprint, and what SID describes as "patent-pending mechanical integration."
The iPad's display has grabbed a Gold award for Display Application of the Year. While not as sharp as the iPhone 4's Retina Display, it also exploits IPS to offer accurate color at multiple viewing angles. The display is moreover present on an extremely thin tablet, with a battery capable of up to 10 hours of Wi-Fi Internet access, SID notes.
The only Gold not claimed by Apple is for the Display Component of the Year. That title belongs to E Ink Triton, a color e-paper technology. Most e-readers -- like the Kindle and the Kobo -- continue to use black-and-white e-paper, owing to the relative newness of color and its current costs.

From Clifford Paiva, BSM Associates: Astro-Geophysics, Space Physics and Missile Defense Technologies
These are the Barnes and Slusher Files as they relate to the interplanetary dust accumulation on the lunar surface.
Nominal values for depth accumulation is 3-5 inches.
This depth value should exceed 300 feet in the assumed 4.5-5.0 billion years of interplanetary dust accumulation on the Moon's surface.
The calculations performed by Professor Slusher and presented in these frames do not include radiation pressure-generated dust…which would of course increase the depth over the assumed 4.5 billion year period.
The lunar dust accumulation and the predominant absence of dust is one of the primary indicators of the age of the lunar surface…… Cliff Paiva.

Nik and Dusty's Excellent Bardstown Adventure (VIDEO!)
All good things come to those who wait, right?
Sheesh! Waiting sucks, if you'll pardon our French.
But after being beset a few days by pesky technical issues, the video from our amazing visit to wonderful and beautiful Bardstown, Kentucky is finally here! Woot Woot!
Enjoy, then read on for a few final thoughts…
OH! And two things before you watch: mind the volume on your computer at first. And be sure to stick around to the very end of the video!
Okay! On with the show…
Very cool, huh?
There's so much more from our visit that we couldn't fit in the video, including the time we spent making old-fashioned milkshakes at Hurst Drug, and dipping our own bottles in wax at the Maker's Mark distillery. Hopefully some of that will make it on the Travel Channel show, because it was all very visual and very very very fun.
We so enjoyed our time in Bardstown. Can't say that enough. What a special, special place! Thank you everyone for being so good to us, making us feel so special and showing us such a terrific time. You guys will always have a special place in our hearts, and we know we'll be coming back to see y'all again sometime.
And as we leave Kentucky, we'd like to express how much we loved, loved, loved our overall time in the Bluegrass State. Danville and Bardstown are both wonderful places, and the beauty, hospitality, and charm of Kentucky is something that everyone should experience at least once in their lives. So make it a point to visit sometime! You'll be so glad you did.
Cheers everybody! See you next time from Tybee Island, GA!
~ Nik and Dusty

Mark Twain once said he'd never met a Kentuckian who wasn't on his way home. This Bardstown native hasn't lived there in a decade and your trip brings back many good memories. I hope you enjoyed Bardstown as much and I enjoy being from there. If I can't make the case for Bardstown (Kentucky in general), I'll let our nation's 5th President, James Monroe, say it for me, ""He loved Kentucky, … He thought this was the prettiest country in the world."Sherry

Nik and Dusty, in September 2009, we also visited Kentucky, enjoyed a vacation in Bardstown [bourbon festival] and everything in this video we enjoyed first hand. Great video. But the proof is in the pudding. On the two day drive back to Maine, we decided to sell everything and move to Bardstown, Kentucky. We bought our home the following July and the rest is history.Richard Nest

Thomas Elwood: Early livestock comments
Packers bids are fairly widespread at $96.00 coming into today. Asking prices are generally $100.00 live in Texas, and $99.00 in Kansas and Nebraska. Dressed asking prices are $157. Trade is possible today but packers are going to have to get more aggressive about bidding unless the board falls apart. We continue to look for a steady market this week.
The choice cutout was down $0.74 at $158.27 last night, with the select up $0.08 at $149.50. Spot movement jumped sharply last night, and it appears prices have finally fallen into buyers' comfort zone again. Slaughter is up 6,000 head so far from last week. Unless packers scale back on late week slaughter, it appears the total for the week will be up quite a bit from last week on the recent bounce in margins.
Cash hog bids are expected to be mostly steady today. Slaughter is up 7,000 head so far this week. Packer margins are good and they are willing to pay steady to keep the kill lines rolling. There has been a small amount of progress on the heavy-hog situation. Iowa/S. Minn barrow and gilt weights dropped a tenth of a pound last week. This is the first time since late August that weights went down for the week instead of up.
The pork cutout gained $1.01 last night. Loins were unevenly steady. Butts were quoted as "steady" but we note the weighted average on bone-in dropped 3 cents last night. Heavy hams were 2 cents lower. Other weights were unquoted. The industry is simply throwing huge numbers of heavy hams, almost to the exclusion of lighter weights. Bellies were quoted steady, though some sources still indicate a softer tone to the market.
Last night's CME storage report showed a net in-movement of 4.698 mill lbs compared to a net in- movement last year of 989 thsd lbs. Stocks on hand now total 18.017 mill lbs compared to 23.283 mill lbs last year.

It's heartbreaking how callous the families are in this story, and it seems a far stretch considering that some of the people, such as Stasia's own mother, should want to support her. Gavin seems to be the only one willing to learn the truth about her claims, yet he hides that attribute behind his cynical views of the wealthy and a workaholic attitude. Gavin and Stasia have an excellent balance between incredibly sexy — they are so hot — and serious; Gavin is smart, Stasia is no wallflower and their romance enhances the storyline of finding a family to which one belongs. Secondary characters make up a strong, loving support network while showing the value of fighting for your dreams.
Upon the death of her father, Stasia Renaldi learns the shocking truth that her mother once had an affair. Now she's being stripped of the Renaldi name, and everyone she once considered family has abandoned her while they come to grips with this revelation. Once over the initial shock, Stasia tries to make contact with her new family, the Worth brothers, only to be denied because they are convinced she only wants their money. As a last resort she hires sexy attorney Gavin Westmore to help her gain access to her biological family and convince them of her true intentions. Stasia and Gavin cross the line from professional to personal very quickly, with things getting more complicated as blazing passion flares into something more. (SAMHAIN, Feb., 232 pp., $14.00)

1998 Ford Contour
I have checked everything on my car from fuel filter and the car is getting gas could the coil be bad or not generating enough power for it to hit? I am also on my third battery the last two where bad, but I believe this one is ok. I have checked the timing belt intact and tight, I don't have an air filter in right now, but I have checked the spark plugs and spark plug wires my neighbor said that when he checked the coil it should a clear spark not a blue one and it should be blue is this correct?
November 16, 2006.
November 16, 2006.
The spark should be blue and one key is that the timing belt can be fine but there might be a camshaft position sensor that has failed. This item if failing is an important part of the spark timing process. The coil could be failing and there are tests for that.

iPhone helps O2 lure customers of competition
updated 02:20 pm EST, Wed December 26, 2007
iPhone lures customers
Apple's iPhone is helping its UK wireless carrier partner to lure customers from competitors, according to FT.com. O2 CEO Matthew Key says about 60 percent of UK iPhone customers are new to his company, and expressed confidence in the prospect of landing an exclusive deal for Apple's second-generation iPhone with faster 3G wireless service when it ships in late 2008. Key also said he expects 200,000 iPhones to sell in the UK by early January, a number that some analysts are calling conservative.
Key insists that the iPhone is a profitable venture for O2 despite Apple's unusually high revenue-sharing agreement, and is excited about the amount of data services iPhone customers demand from his firm.
Roughly 60 percent of iPhone owners are sending or receiving more than 25MB of data per month, compared to just 1.8 percent of O2's other mobile customers on monthly contracts, according to the report.
O2's chief executive is hoping to have attracted 1 million customers by 2010, a goal that Apple's iPhone could help the company to reach.
