I mean 'unbelievable!' sorry for sp
The pigs in the west are responsible for the decimation of the whale populations, just like they decimated the American Buffalo. The environmentally reverent Japanese, just like the environmentally reverent American Indian, have no guilt or responsibility for this. Blame the immoral western white man for these past crimes against the whale and the buffalo, you hypocrites at Greenpiece.
The Japanese whalers are in violation of international and Australian national law, by entering the Antarctic Whale Sanctuary, and slaughtering whales some of which are listed as endangered. This is the equivalent of an American corporation moving into Japanese territory, and killing animals protected under Japanese law. I'm sure the Japanese people would not tolerate that sort of behavior from a foreign power.
If you look at the issue from the perspective of the other side, it is easy to see why Australians are upset with the Japanese whalers.
To regard an environmental group as terrorists is highly ignorant, terrorists blow people up, they don't save whales. Hopefully, there are rational and educated people in Japan who can understand the above comments.
Funny how NYT uses WL released cables but is unable to support them in any substantial way against US imperialism against the 1st Amendant.
2 Things: equating the whale populations to the american buffalo is pretty crazy. Many american communities were born on the whaling industry, but that was before the world population explosion. How is the US responsible for the Japanese killing 500 whales a year while they don't kill any?
Secondly, can we get the research outline, goals, and results that the Japanese Research is based on? This is the mother of all studies, needing to kill 500 whales a year for the last 15+ years. What have they learned so far? What are their future goals for this research? Let's see a research paper on what they have accomplished in the last 15 years other than slaughtering whales and selling their meat.
This blog states that the Sea Shephard ship crashed into the whaling ship, but it was obvious from the video that the whaling ship deliberately hit the Sea Shephard ship. Actually, the Sea Shephard ship was out of gas and had been idle for a long time before the whaling ship approached them and rammed them. Then the japanese imprisoned the sunken ship's captain. This author is either biased, careless, or uninformed.
Prop wash at the rear of the Ady Gil clearly showed it accelerated into the Shonan Maru 2. Whether that was deliberate or accidental is unknown and is one of the reasons the official report from New Zealand faulted both sides.
Whaling by Japan in this area of the Antarctic is perfectly legal. There is no relevant legal authority that has decided otherwise - this is, in part, the reason that Australia is challenging Japan in the international court where disagreements like this should be handled. Maybe that should change but the way to change it is through negotiation and diplomacy like civilized human beings. Not by boat loads of spoiled children screaming and throwing things until they get their way.
Dangerously stupid and violent antics, like those committed by Sea Shepherd, do not solve disagreements. They exasperate them.
This is the same group of people that find it perfectly ok to drive dolphins into a cove and beat them to death.
It is very clear who is wrong.
The so-called sea shephards are just grown up little boys who are no more than convenient idiot by-products of educational brainwashing of the 1970's and all the "save the whales" BS perpetuated by the phony environmentalists who couldn't grow a carrot if their life depended on it. These same Australian drunks in wet suits are breaking the law, not Japan, Norway or Iceland.
Charlie. Someone needs to drive you into a cove.
Ricardo. You are a rambling, nonsensical lunatic.
Justice. You are the leader of the kangaroo court of progressive moral relativists.
Mr. Phillips. You can shove your international law.
sad that the world's governments watch and do nothing to prevent japan slaughtering whales. Really, do you need hundreds of whales to be killed for research? How about 10 or 30 or a reasonable amount? Has anyone looked into the research studies conducted?
Matt: clearly the author of this blog is biased. They did not mention anything about any debate as to which ship was at fault. Nor did they mention the japanese imprisonment of the captain of the sunkrn ship. This alone equates this blog to japanese pro-whaling propaganda.
As to the Sea Shephard methods, they are saving more whales than anyone else. And these diplomatic cables clearly prove that they are making a difference in negotiations. If you believe that Japan would be in a weaker negotiating position without this, you are sorely mistaken.
I think that the pro-lifers should get to ram automobiles into Planned Parenthood offices, don't you?
The world has very few heroes; Sea Shepherd and specifically Paul Watson are at the top of the list. Law is meaningless - it serves only the powerful. Commerce is meaningless - it serves only to perpetuate the growing injustice that is modern human civilization. Diplomacy is meaningless - it serves only the maintenance and expansion of the empire of greed. Sea Shepherd and other organizations doing whatever it takes to stop the complete destruction of life as we know it, as it has evolved for millions of years on planet Earth = priceless.
well, now we have the extreme viewpoint from each side. thanks Ozzie et. al. and frytoy.
The prop wash could not have clearly shown it to be the ady gil's fault, because video shows clearly that the boat was idle and the crew was on the deck waiting for fuel support.
while the sea shepherd's actions are costing the japanese whaling fleet a lot of money, they are not putting innocent japanese lives as risk. As proactive as their actions are, they are still not risking any human life but their own. you can't equate it to crashing a car into a planned parenthood office or killing a doctor who performs abortions.
Killing 500 whales a year is disgusting and to do it under the guise of research is embarrassing to the japanese people. If they don't think there's anything wrong with their actions, then come clean with your motives.
By deliberately mis-identifying who crashed into who, the whole article can be dismissed as propaganda instead of news. WSJ is very thin on news. Amazing that they charge money to buy their propaganda at a newsstand.
Glad I could help ricardo.
Extremism in defense of life is no vice.
One correction: the sea Shepherd's vessel was dead in the water when the Japanese security vessel rammed it. Several videos confirm this. So you need a correction since the sea sheperd's didn't "crash" into the japanese vessel.
Totally agree with Joe Snow. SSCS Ady Gil was dead in the water, while the Shonen Maru 2 "security" ¿? vessel (steel hull) was steaming at full speed and changed course in order to ram the composite hull vessel.
The irony is, whale meat was not part of the traditional Japanese diet until it was introduced by the Americans after WWII to help address food shortages in Japan. I go to Japan on business about once a year, and my observation is that very few Japanese eat whale meat, but now that there is a whaling industry in Japan, the Japan Government does not want to abolish the whalers' jobs. Talk about make-work!
Pioneers killing buffalo is for eliminating our natives. The Japanese killing whales is for comforting their own tommy. ... and eliminating other humans. Not the same!
LoeInColHts. You're an idiot and I'm surprised you can find your way out of the Narita airport. The Japanese have been hunting whales for centuries, just like the eskimo.
Navajo. The American poachers killed buffalo for their hides and tongues and left the rest to rot. The native American indians consumed the entire buffalo, as they respected god and nature.
The American poachers killed whales for their head oil and left the rest to rot. America needed the oil for lanterns as this was the cleanest burning (smoke free) oil available and was much desired for using in the house. That is what decimated the whale populations, not the relatively few whales caught by the Japanese. The Japanese, like the American Indian, used the whole whale, and just like the American Indian, offered their thanks to god and nature out of respect for the gift.
ricardo. You are a fraud, just like your other lying friends. No one equated anything here to killing abortion doctors. You are a blatant liar, liar, liar. In fact, you are very sick. See a psychologist soon. And take frytoy with you. He needs to stop drinking.
And what started with a civil political debate turns into senseless namecalling. Let's be big boys and girls, shall we?
As little as the Sea Sheperd does to actually stop the Nisshin Maru II from killing whales (besides being a thorn in their side) I think their recent actions have done wonders for raising awareness in both the Japanese society and world scene.
Japan feels culturally victimized and truly, they do make a bit of a point, yes, they have been whaling and hunting dolphins for centuries, but what they fail to- or more likely, just won't- realize is their actions are affecting much more than just their nation.
Just like with the blue fin tuna and the dolphins, Japan should step up its game or will probably end up on the losing side of a global fishing arguement.
Until the firearm was brought to North America the native population used to kill buffalo by running whole herds off cliffs, killing far more than necessary to survive. The later white poachers shot them in their millions. Neither used sustainable or even reasonable methods. respect for god and nature. Ha.
American and all other nations back in the day often used the whole whale, meat, blubber, oil, bone (for corsets) and so on. Thats valuable whale! Everybody was at it so its really not usefull to point fingers or hark to the imaginary eco-values of certain civilisations.
"In January 2010, one of the Sea Shepherd's vessels crashed into a Japanese whaling ship in the Southern Ocean"
I think this statement is highly inaccurate... the sea shepherd vessel in question was not under power at the time, so there is no way that it "crashed into " the Japanese whaling ship. Even if they had been under power, the Japanese ship was overtaking the sea shepherd vessel and would have had right of way.
I think the US should put sanctions on Japan until they stop violating the Arctic Wildlife refuge, and stop commercial whaling. That will help with negotiations, if American stop buying Japanese goods.
Writeup calls Sea Shepherd "a thorn in negotiating efforts." Umm ... why? I accept that they're a thorn in Japanese whale-killing efforts (that's pretty much the idea), but the cables present no evidence they're making whaling-reduction negotiations harder. Instead, the cables suggest that Japan comes to the US every so often to ask for some USG response to Sea Shepherd (revoke their tax-exempt status, whatever). When the guy across the table wants something from me, my bargaining position improves. +2 for whales: Sea Shepherd actually interferes with whale-slaughter, and Japan shows up at whaling negotiations with a list of stuff they need.
Call of Davrodo. You are possibly the most uninformed reader os the WSJ in history. They should give you an award for being the epitome of ignorance. Your notion that American Indians used such blatently inefficient and improbable methods is ludicrous, when obviously spears and arrows were available long before firearms. Secondly you have absolutely no knowledge of the early American poachers. It is well documented that these poachers of both the whale and the buffalo were entirely oppotunistic, mercenary, and wasteful. They slaughtered the buffalo for their tougues and hides. They slaughtered the whales for their head oil. They killed beavers for their fur when the fur hat was popular They used dynamite to harvest salmon from the rivers. They cut virgin redwoods without regard or consequence whatsoever.
And yes, there clearly are civilizations with higher standards. Open your eyes, stupid.
See the comprehensive browser for WikiLeaks cables with email and twitter alerts, http://dazzlepod.com/cable/ - much better than any mirror sites if you are looking for the cables.
I think what the Sea Shepeards are doing is only going to help our oceans and increase the whales survival. If they are endangered, why should they be allowed to hunt and kill threm!?

For generations, the Girls Scouts have been one of the largest organizations for young girls in Rhode Island, teaching various life lessons and providing opportunities that would not exist other wise.
This week, we profile the organization as it celebrates its 100th anniversary and take a special look back at its roots in and around North Kingstown, it's current ties to the community and some of the most prominent women to come from the organization.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆö The curtain at the Greenwich Odeum Theater is close to rising, but there is still a good amount of work that still needs to be taken care of.
At least thatŌĆÖs what Odeum President Frank Prosnitz told the Town Council during MondayŌĆÖs meeting in giving an update as to how the renovations of the historic venue on Main Street are progressing with the end of March ŌĆō the targeted timeframe for the theaterŌĆÖs grand re-opening ŌĆō quickly approaches.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆö Parents know every single day what it takes to raise their children with the right tools to better their skills.
Teachers in area schools understand that, as well, knowing that they need the proper books, writing utensils and computers at their disposal in order to properly educate the future contributors of society.
Back in October, teachers and parents of students from both Meadowbrook Farms and Hanaford Elementary Schools understood their concerns of having classrooms with outdated technology ŌĆō old computers and laptops ŌĆō or no technology at all.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆö The fate of the latest proposal incarnation of a mixed-use Greenwich Boulevard development may hinge on a radius.
The Planning Board heard 3.5 hours of testimony last Wednesday from representatives of local developer Joseph N. Zenga, who is seeking a comprehensive permit to develop 40 townhouse units, including 10 to be designated as affordable housing, off Greenwich Boulevard and behind East Greenwich American Legion Post 15 down to the Amtrak rail line near Greenwich Cove.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆö ThereŌĆÖs a lot more to being a Girl Scout than selling cookies door to door.
And thereŌĆÖs a lot more going on for girls who think theyŌĆÖre too old for Scouting just because theyŌĆÖve reached middle or high school age, says Kitty Opishinski, public relations coordinator for East Greenwich Girl Scouts.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆö A young person going through adolescence can be a challenge both personally and socially.
It can also be a challenge for parents of an adolescent, trying to guide their child through the various changes the development stage can bring in that brief period of time.
EAST GREENWICH ŌĆō Some museum curators and caretakers exhibit living history. Tony Amaral lives amidst history.
Amaral, 41, a Taunton, Mass. native and Adams State College grad, is a former self-employed painter who is the new business manager and caretaker of the Varnum Memorial Armory. He lives in the caretakerŌĆÖs apartment within the building itself and often has to open his room to cater to guests renting the space for parties.
Amaral replaces longtime watchman Jim Wilson who took care of the venerable place for a quarter century.

Rhubarb And Vanilla Jam23
I once read somewhere that if not prepared properly, rhubarb can be poisonous. So I stayed clear of rhubarb for all of eternity, never giving it the benefit of doubt it deserved – a Google search. When we were returning from mandarin picking last weekend, we stopped at a roadside shack outside a farm with the standard money box and vegetables on display. I just couldn't resist the big bunch of fresh rhubarb with the dirt still sticking to the stalks. Then we came home and I googled my fears to rest.

SEO: AuthorRank & Upcoming Google Curve
SEOs like myself are constantly thirsting for fresh news bursting from the Search Engine Optimization bubble and digital marketing channels. Other SEOs can surely relate. It's a constant challenge to stay ahead of the Google curve. A moment away and they've flipped a 360 on you. We're all too familiar with the outcome of Google's Panda update perhaps if that's any indication. By now you've probably heard the term 'AuthorRank' floating around the SEO world. One that stands of critical content importance and quite honestly hasn't received enough attention – yet. Read More

Are you planning to vote in 2014? The North Carolina legislature will likely enact a Voter ID law soon. Voter fraud cases in this state are almost nonexistent. An estimated half a million legally registered voters in N.C. may lose their right to vote should this law be enacted. We all know elderly family members, disabled persons, college students, etc. who are eligible to vote but lack the proper identification that will be required. Familiarize yourself with the provisions of this proposed law and be prepared now. There are no make-up days for registration or voting. "Forewarned is forearmed."
On Election Day you must present a valid driver's license or a state issued photo ID. The information on your license or ID must match the voters' rolls. Is your driver's license up to date? Have you moved or has your license expired? Renew and update it now. You no longer drive and/or don't have a driver's license? You will need an official birth certificate as proof of your identity. If you don't have one, apply for it now. This process will cost from $25 to $50 and may take months. Delay may cause you to miss the 30-day registration period.
Without a current driver's license you need proof of your residence. Do you have utility bills, tax receipts etc. to document of your legal residence in North Carolina? If your spouse pays the bills and you don't have a driver's license, consider having your name put on a utility bill. Have you recently married, divorced or changed your name? Your current name must match the name on the voter rolls. If it doesn't you must take documentation to prove you are who you say you are.
You must vote in the precinct where you live. If you have moved since you last voted, go to voter registration. Take all necessary documents and change your voting precinct. Act now and contact your state legislators to express your opposition to the proposed law. Don't let yourself, a friend or loved one lose their right to vote as a result of the restrictive provisions in a Voter ID law.

A public hearing on a controversial bill that would cut senators salaries to pay for school buses is set for tonight, but one former senator has already voiced his support.
Former Sen. Robert Klitzkie has released his written testimony in support of Bill 491, which states that the only reason senators to reject the bill is that it will cost them money.
If passed into law, Bill 491 would cut each senators salary by about $4,700, then pass the total savings to the Department of Public Works for busing. The bill was introduced by Sen. Chris Duenas, who is running for re-election. ...

Celkon A119 Signature HD v/s Micromax Canvas HD– Specs Breakdown
Riding on the success of Virat Kohli, Celkon is trying hard to gain respectable position in the Indian market. Their latest venture Celkon A119 Signature HD is ready to take on our beloved Canvas HD. How does Celkon A119 Signature HD compare with Canvas HD? Soon, you'll be able to find out. Not only does it expect to fight with Micromax, but also likes of MTV VOLT, Samsung Galaxy Grand and XOLO handset. However, we are keen on comparing A119 Signature HD with Canvas HD since Micromax is the only company that seems to be outperforming everyone in the phablet segment.
Marred with the supply issues, Canvas HD is expected to be available on most shopping sites as well as local retailers. Few retailers have started getting the stock while others are waiting in a queue for their turn. Even, the supply of Canvas 2 has recommenced, which is a good sign for the Indian consumers.
Head to Head Specs Breakdown:
Let's take a quick look at the comparison of Celkon A119 Signature HD v/s Micromax Canvas HD. Below is the spec sheet that contains most important technical specs of both the devices.
Micromax Canvas HD
Celkon A119 Signature HD
|5-inch IPS HD display

|1280 x 720p

|Next Update
|Internal memory

|Primary Camera
|Secondary Camera
|Dual SIM
|Dual SIM
|Rs. 14,499
|Rs. 13,500
General issues:
Although, the specs sheet peculiarly looks identical, there are certain subtle changes that you shouldn't ignore. First of all, Celkon is still new to this field and there is no announcement regarding the availability of the next Android update. You will be missing a chunk of new features and refinement for sure. The die-hard fans of custom ROM and rooting will have to wait for intolerably long time for someone to come ahead and provide you support.
Specs Comparison:
Let's compare the specifications of Celkon A119 Signature and Canvas HD. Micromax has the upper hand in this department as far as processor below the aesthetic matters. The 1.2 GHz quad core processor of Canvas HD should give better performance compared to dual core processor of A119 Signature HD. Besides that, internal storage, external storage and RAM are similar, but a lot more depends on the processor it supports. Micromax Canvas HD has 8MP primary camera compared to 12MP camera of A119 Signature HD of Celkon, however, one cannot judge the camera quality by pixels. There are a lot more things that add to it. Same is the case with front facing camera. In our detailed review, we mentioned the issue with the picture quality of Canvas HD camera.
Celkon has a slightly stronger battery, but the difference is big enough to draw any conclusion.
Silicon has adopted a smart strategy of keeping the price below Micromax Canvas HD to grab more eyeballs. A119 Signature is priced at Rs. 13,500 which is almost Rs.1000 less compared to Micromax Canvas HD.
Personal Take
Our personal take (not just as a Micromax fan) is that Micromax Canvas HD is undeniably a better option at the price tag. Even, the local retailers have started getting the stock, so availability should no longer be an issue. Surprisingly, more and more online stores have started displaying Canvas HD as an upcoming device. So you should be able to get it online very soon. Spending Rs.1000 extra for a quad core processor is a smart choice. You will get better performance and will be able to enjoy high quality games without any lag.
What's your take on it? Do let us know if you want to add something to our comparison of Celkon A199 Signature HD v/s Micromax Canvas HD.

Philadelphia Eagles special teams coordinator Bobby April wouldn't divulge his plans for Bears returner Devin Hester.
"Well I wouldn't want to reveal my strategy or what we're going to do because it's almost like calling up [Bears special teams coordinator] Dave Toub and telling him what we're going to do," April said. "So I'd rather not commit on what we're going to do. I just would rather say that we have a real challeng, unlike a lot of people."
April said Hester "may be a real exception to everybody."
"He's better than good, maybe the greatest returner of all time," April said. "His records certainly show that. And in only six years there's been some greats that he's passed that took twice as long to have that many. So I guess he's sort of like [former RB Jim Brown] in that he passed everybody in a shorter period of time. So he's a great player and there's no doubt about that. He's a great player."
The Eagles, though, do not boast a great pair of kickers. Chas Henry is 28th in the NFL, with a net average of 36 yards per punt. Just three of his 18 punts have landed inside the opponents' 20-yard line. Meanwhile, kicker Alex Henery is tied for 19th with 15 touchbacks on kickoffs.
They're both rookies.

|Paper-Based Microfluidic Devices by Plasma Treatment.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 18975986 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Paper-based microfluidic patterns have been demonstrated in recent literature to have a significant potential in developing low-cost analytical devices for telemedicine and general health monitoring. This study reports a new method for making microfluidic patterns on a paper surface using plasma treatment. Paper was first hydrophobized and then treated using plasma in conjunction with a mask. This formed well defined hydrophilic channels on the paper. Paper-based microfluidic systems produced in this way retained the flexibility of paper and a variety of patterns could be formed. A major advantage of this system is that simple functional elements such as switches and filters can be built into the patterns. Examples of these elements are given in this study.

I'm using SKINbedder to embed GoogleEarth. I have a shut-down script that switches CF to Media (Ctrl-Shift-M) and kills GE/GooPs/Sb. If I shutdown using a skin button, it works great. If I press the CF exit button in the lower-right corner or the CF close button on the non-fullscreen embedded window title-bar, it seems to not close SKINbedder, just hide the window until you switch back to it from the main-menu. However, if I press the CF close button while in full-screen, it kills SKINbedder and does not execute my OnCloseQuery event code (which leaves the GoogleEarth.exe process running and leaves me starring at an emptied embedded window that I have to un-full-screen and then exit using the lower-right button).
Can you help me understand how it works and how it is supposed to work David? I definitely don't think you should kill an embedded app without sending asking it to close first (either via API or just sending Alt-F4 to it).
Also, when I launch SKINbedder from the main menu, it often changes back to the main-menu and I have to press the button again to see my app. This seems to happen every time my app embeds another apps window (GooPs, then GoogleEarth).

Most of the discussions of fiscal and monetary policy seem to forget that in most models, these are temporary fixes.
The Sulzberger family had to give up most of the dividends that made up their annual monetary take-away.
"The monetary arrow is very effective," says Nariman Behravesh, chief economist at IHS.
The monetary expansion has been like a shot of adrenaline, or caffeine.
"Eurozone Deal Leaves Britain Isolated" trumpets the Financial Times, for many years an ardent proponent of monetary union.
There is a vast difference between a standard of value and a currency for monetary use.
The monetary explanation of the romance, he found, was the popular one in the village.
His discussion is a permanent contribution to monetary science of very great value.
The livre was the old French monetary unit which was displaced by the franc.
The monetary standard is gold, the gold condor of ten sucres being equivalent to a sovereign.
"pertaining to money," 1802, from Late Latin monetarius "pertaining to money," originally "of a mint," from Latin moneta "mint, coinage" (see money). Related: Monetarily.

Who has done the Big 12′s top coaching job?
For the moment, James Anderson of Oklahoma State seems to have emerged from the pack as the front-runner for Big 12 player of the year.
Coach of the year honors remains in a state of flux.
You can make a case for at least four candidates in the conference.
Bill Self has led Kansas to a 13-1 conference record going into tonight's Sunflower State showdown with Kansas State. Yes, the Jayhawks have the best talent in the league and maybe the country, but Self has kept the team focused after the preseason brawl with the football team.
Kansas State's Frank Martin was supposed to be a recruiter/babysitter and has proven himself to be a very solid bench coach. Did anyone see the Wildcats as a potential second seed in the NCAA Tournament? Plus, he may have the most intimidating stare in college basketball. Are you going to vote against him?
No one doubts that A&M's Mark Turgeon has fully put his stamp on the Aggies' program this season. He's weathered adversity with the Derrick Roland injury, rallied his players and roused the A&M students to a fever pitch. The Aggies are knocking on the door of a top four seed in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship if they can beat Oklahoma State tonight.
Baylor was picked to finish 10th in the league by Big 12 coaches, and could end up third with a Saturday home win over Texas. Scott Drew has gotten the most out of Michigan transfer Ekpe Udoh and defined roles for his players, led by point guard Tweety Carter and shotmaker LaceDarius Dunn.
I'm leaning toward Turgeon. But who's your choice?

|Carry-over effect of host nutritional quality on performance of spruce budworm progeny.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22077965 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|The effect of host nutritional quality on spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana (Clemens)) parental and offspring performance was studied using field and laboratory rearing experiments, and foliar chemical analyses. Foliage of balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.), white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) and black spruce (P. mariana (Mill.) BSP) was used to rear the parental generation in the field, whereas an artificial diet was used to rear the progeny under laboratory conditions. Important differences in the food quality were provided by the three hosts. Black spruce foliage had higher concentrations of certain monoterpene deterrents and total phenolics, together with stronger seasonal declines in nutrients such as N, P and Mg, compared with the other hosts. We hypothesise that this trend may be related to poor performance and survival of the progeny. Laboratory rearing showed that progeny of parents that fed on black spruce exhibited longer developmental times and greater mortality, and had lower pupal mass than progeny of parents fed on the other hosts. Further, artificial food-fed progeny of insects reared on black spruce reached sixth-instar later, with lower mass, and exhibited higher relative growth rate (RGR) than progeny of parents fed on the other hosts. These results suggest nutritionally-based parental effects. These results also confirmed that the quality of food consumed by the parents can influence the fitness of the next generation.

Our collective 2014 resolution should be to fundamentally change the way politics is done in Iowa, so that everyday people and hardworking families are at the center of decision-making at the statehouse, rather than big-money corporate interests.
From the legislative session to the November elections, 2014 is shaping up to be a historic year in Iowa politics. But the battle for Iowa's future is not a fight between Democrats and Republicans - it's a fight between people and corporations.
The face of corporate power in Iowa - and at the Statehouse - is Gov. Terry Branstad. His agenda is ...

"Political language… is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind." - George Orwell, "Politics and the English Language," 1946
"It's important, because a lot of people believe this stuff." – Bill Clinton, speaking at the Democratic National Convention, 5 September 2012
In case you were unaware, Bill Clinton gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention on the evening of September 5, which, the media tells us, revealed Clinton's "special gift"[1] to "give a boost to Obama's middle-class hero image."[2] The speech has been hailed as Clinton's "come back,"[3] and a "spirited defense" of Obama..[4] The "rock star,"[5] Bill Clinton, received heaps of praise from celebrities who endorsed his speech, and it's obviously very important that the public know what Whoopi Goldberg, Chris Rock, and Alicia Silverstone think of the speech, so lucky for us, the media tells us. It was, "fantastic… common sense," that Clinton was "up there teaching," and "breaking it down."[6]

Political language… is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.
- George Orwell, "Politics and the English Language," 1946
Political language functions through euphemism, by employing soft-sounding or simply meaningless words to describe otherwise monstrous and vicious policies and objectives. In the European debt crisis, political language employed by politicians, economists, technocrats and bankers is designed to make policies which create poverty and exploitation appear to be logical and reasonable. The language employed includes the words and phrases: fiscal austerity/consolidation, structural adjustment/reform, labour flexibility, competitiveness, and growth. To understand political language, one must translate it. This requires four steps: first, you look at the rhetoric itself as inherently meaningless; second, you examine the policies that are taken; third, you look at the effects of the policies. Finally, if the effects do not match the rhetoric, yet the same policies are pursued time and time again, one must translate the effects as the truemeaning of the rhetoric. Thus, the rhetoric has meaning, but not at face value.

"George Papandreou is not bought, he is rented. He sells public enterprises to the multinationals. He reduces wages, pensions and employment at the behest of the IMF. He turns over the public treasury to the European banks. He supports NATO's war against Libya. He directs the Greek Coast Guard to enforce Netanyahu's blockade of Gaza." - According to a demonstrator in Syndigma Square, Athens, July 3, 2011
A self-proclaimed "Socialist" Government in Greece is imposing by ballots and clubs the most far reaching reversals of wages, pensions, jobs, educational, health and tax programs in the history of Western Europe.

Oh, gag me with a bowl of propaganda. The National Archives is hosting an historical exhibit on government say in what we eat and grow and how to cook it: "What's Cooking, Uncle Sam: The Government's Effect on the American Diet." From the opening lines of the website, you know our control freak "Uncle" has launched another major psyops campaign to convince us that Government Knows Best when it comes to food:
"We demand that our Government ensure that it is safe, cheap, and abundant. In response, Government has been a factor in the production, regulation, research, innovation, and economics of our food supply."
Though painting Uncle Sam as Mrs. Doubtfire, when it comes to the results of government intrusion into the food supply, he's more like Joseph Mengele. Over the last hundred years, we've seen climbing rates of cancer, diabetes, obesity, heart disease and neurological disorders, thanks to Uncle Sam's "regulation" of food additives and environmental pollutants. We've also seen the number of farms decline by 98%.

At present, numerous environmental researchers are warning of future resource shortages. The list of them is large and includes water, oil, a variety of minerals and metals, as well as other materials.
Yet, most people carry on as if they do not hear the message at all. They refuse to cut back in their dreams of continuing economic growth.
In relation, part of the problem with them is perhaps an inability to make connections. For the most part, they seem to have little or no idea about the collective consequences of their individual behaviors.

The Money Party is destroying the United States. For ten years, there have been no new jobs with flat income. Unemployment and poverty are making a big comeback. The party consists of those who own and control concentrations of great wealth and the select few who serve them (their Mandarins). Based on the efficiency of the demolition job, you have to wonder, is this is by design? If greed, ignorance, and paranoia constitute a plan, then they are master planners. (Image)
Look at the glaring problems below. Then ask yourself, has there been one single program implemented to address any of these problems, just one? Our elected representatives enable the relentless process of driving down the United States. They bicker and fume at the edge of issues. However, when it comes to neglecting the real needs of citizens and the country, they are as one. All rewards and resources flow to their patrons and owners, the made men and women of The Money Party. We are nothing to them.

Arthur Laurents' story about love, racism and violence set in 1950s New York City took on a new twist under the direction of David Saint in Broadway Across America's Ft. Lauderdale production of West Side Story. By making subtle changes (from the 1961 film version starring Natalie Wood), Saint softens the criticism of US racism and salutes same-sex love.
When I first saw the film as a teen, the song "America" shocked me with its blunt lines, "Life is all right in America … if you are white in America." Given our media-fostered culture of anti-Arab sentiment, I looked forward to hearing those words again. Instead, under Saint's direction, the song mocked Puerto Rico. "Twelve in a room in America" became San Juan's burden.
Health Care Reform DOA. Why the Surprise?
They Did what they Always Do
The Money Party is a small group of enterprises and individuals who have most of the money in this country. They use that money to make more money. Controlling who gets elected to public office is the key to more money for them and less for us September 30, 2007
Dr. Howard Dean, MD, just said pull the plug on the current health care reform effort. The cure is worse than the disease according to the good doctor.
Why the surprise?
Last week the president announced that he's sending 30,000 troops to Afghanistan without a declaration of war by Congress and without Afghanistan posing a direct threat to the United States violating both the United States Constitution and international law at the same time.
The bailed out Wall Street failures are paying back just enough of their loans to the Treasury Department to allow a new round of huge bonuses. At the same time, they continue to get tons of cash through the Federal Reserve. Pay back a few billion, get seven trillion dollars in credit. Not a bad deal.

Although some birds can talk, their vocabulary does not include words to tell you when they are sick. Since they can't tell us, it is important for birds to have regular health checks by an avian veterinarian and for you to observe any unusual behavior and communicate this information to your vet.
You are the best resource on your bird's health. You know her normal behavior and appearance better than anyone, and by observing any changes in how she looks and acts, you are her first line of defense against disease.
An annual veterinary examination is critical to maintaining your bird's good health. The examination is the best way to ensure you catch diseases early enough for successful treatment. Your vet can also notice congenital problems and give you the best advice about caring for your bird and encouraging her to behave so she becomes, or continues to be, a welcome member of your household. But even the best veterinarian in the world can't see in an hour what you have observed through the entire year.
The first time you visit a new vet or take a new pet to your vet, you will have to answer a series of questions about the pet and your household for the medical record. If the veterinary hospital is large enough, an assistant might take this information from you before the vet does an actual examination.
Typical Questions Asked at a Routine Visit
What is your bird's name? A pet's medical records are usually filed under both her name and the owner's name.
Where did you get her? Whether she came from a breeder, a pet shop or a shelter, your bird will have certain medical risks related to her place of origin. The vet will understand these risks and help him decide what tests or vaccinations might be necessary.
How old is she? If you don't know your bird's history, the vet will try to estimate her age for you.
What vaccinations has she had? If you don't know the complete history of your bird, she will most likely need some shots.
Have you had any problems with her? Your vet can offer advice on changing your bird's behavioral habits.
How is she getting along with your other pets? It can be tricky to bring a new bird into a household in which another pet already rules the roost. The last thing you want to do is banish one pet from your house because of incompatibility, so your veterinarian can offer advice on encouraging the pets to live together in harmony.
In addition to this round of questions, the vet will want to take your bird's temperature, weight, collect a stool sample to check for intestinal problems and take a blood sample to check for diseases.
Even after that first visit, a trip to the vet for an annual physical exam and vaccinations can be a harrowing experience. Your bird might remember the last visit and might not be happy about another trip to stand on a cold metal table to be prodded by a stranger.
Many owners manage to get through the visit by constantly talking to and stroking their birds. Some birds, however, can only be controlled using restraints. If your bird is transformed into a demon at the vet's, don't be embarrassed. No doubt your veterinarian has seen worse behavior, and he knows just how to handle an angry or scared bird without hurting her.
You need to be prepared to answer some basic questions about her health and progress since the previous visit. It is a good idea to think about or write down your answers to likely questions before you go, so you will have time to concentrate if your bird is upset. Some of these questions are intended to gather standard information, while others might be asked because of something the veterinarian notices. These questions will likely include:
Since you have been working to control your bird while the vet has been examining her and giving you information on her condition and instructions for her care, you might feel a bit overwhelmed, especially if the vet has recommended specific treatment. Don't let all the information go in one ear and out the other. Ask the vet to repeat the diagnosis or even to write it down if you don't recognize the words. That way you can research more information later if you need to.
Also, since you might be focusing on your bird, during or shortly after the exam, write down any important information or instructions you've been given, such as: diet recommendations, including the brand name of recommended foods and the amounts to feed your bird; medication information, such as how much, how often, how long and how to administer it; recommended exercise level or any activities your bird should avoid; when to schedule a follow-up visit.
The more information you can give the veterinarian about your bird's history, the better able he will be to assess your bird's current health, both by knowing if there are specific things to look for during the physical exam and by adding to his general knowledge about your bird. Make sure you notice, keep track of and report any abnormalities or changes in your bird's behavior or physical condition.

One thing first-year coach Kurt Rambis has not had to do during the Timberwolves' 13-game losing streak is play peacemaker among his players and monitor locker-room tension.
There have been no finger-pointing or temper flare-ups, which Rambis says has made a difficult job much easier in the aftermath of the Wolves' early-season troubles.
"Losing wears on everybody, but we still have positive practices and the guys have the ability to laugh and tease each other," Rambis said before Wednesday night's game against the Denver Nuggets at Target Center. "Those are good signs. The camaraderie is there, and nobody is getting on each other in a negative way."
Rambis' easy-going coaching style might be the Wolves' best strategy while the team tries to break out of its slow start. Though Rambis has been critical, he has avoided constant badgering of the players. He also has maintained a position he mentioned when taking the job in August that he's not a "yeller and screamer."
"Kurt keeps everybody lively," Wolves forward Kevin Love said. "He makes sure the guys have smiles on their faces, and that's important."
Love update: Love, recovering from a broken bone in his left hand, has been cleared to participate in limited activity in practices. Most of the activity is shooting and defensive drills.
It is uncertain when Love will be cleared to scrimmage with the team. He has another X-ray evaluation coming up Dec. 4.
"I'll know more about where I am after the next one," Love said of the X-ray.
Love was projected to miss six to eight weeks when he broke the fourth metacarpal bone in his left hand during the Wolves' Oct. 16 exhibition game at Chicago. He had surgery Oct. 19 in New York.
No time change for Friday: The Wolves decided not to change the starting time for Friday's game against Phoenix after ESPN switched its national telecast. ESPN had planned to televise the Wolves-Phoenix game, which is scheduled for an 8:30 p.m. tipoff.
ESPN plans to broadcast the Milwaukee-Oklahoma City game instead. The Wolves had the option of moving Friday's game back to the 7 p.m. start time but chose not to because of advance publicity for the later start.
Briefly: Love is teaming up with the Salvation Army and Comcast on a coat drive for needy families in the Twin Cities. The drive started at Wednesday's game at Target Center and will continue through Dec. 16.
Fans attending Wolves games can donate coats at the Target Center box office or at Comcast offices around the Twin Cities. Fans donating coats will receive a pair of tickets to the Wolves-Sacramento game Dec. 18 at Target Center.

Domestic violence must be defeated
Special thanks to the Poughkeepsie Journal for their strong editorial about domestic violence, "Deadly domestic scene is all too familiar," (Oct. 30). It was very informative to see the connection between a horrible instance of domestic violence in Wisconsin and the similar problems that are faced by residents of the Hudson Valley. I am so glad that you touched on all the positive initiatives that have been enacted by law enforcement, lawmakers and local nonprofits such as the Grace Smith House. You are correct in stating that the community as a whole cannot rest and feel safe until the "justice system does more, much, much more to treat domestic violence offenses for the crimes they are."
My wife, Denise, and I proudly attended the Grace Smith House Women of Grace awards event on Oct. 22. We wiped tears from our eyes as Sharon Love and Laurie Brent Schiavone spoke about their involvement with domestic violence and how it changed their lives. We gasped when we heard that more people have died from domestic violence than U.S. service members in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. We gladly wrote a check when we learned that the new initiative at Grace Smith House was to focus on education and prevention of domestic violence so that someday this evil scourge can be eliminated.
Thank you for all the past editorials and focus on domestic violence. Education is important for the whole community, and I applaud your efforts.

Facility a major part of recycling effort
America Recycles Day, Nov. 15, was developed to celebrate the progress that we've made recycling as well as offering an opportunity to raise awareness about the value that recycling brings.
Reusing recyclables to make new products conserves energy, reduces emissions and conserves natural resources. You may be surprised to know that the most-recycled material in North America is steel and according to the Steel Recycling Institute, "more steel is recycled annually than paper, plastic, aluminum, glass and copper combined." You may also be surprised that Covanta Hudson Valley Renewable Energy, operator of the Dutchess County Resource Recovery facility, is one of the major contributors to this recycling effort.
Every year, Covanta Hudson Valley Renewable Energy recycles tons of metal items, including cans, small appliances, tire rims and other types of scrap metal found in household waste. Including ferrous metals like iron, we send approximately 6,668 tons of metal to U.S. recycling facilities annually.
We're proud to be part of the recycling community. During the last calendar year, Covanta's Energy-from-Waste facilities recycled over 800 million pounds of ferrous and 30 million pounds of nonferrous metals; that's the equivalent weight of five Golden Gate Bridges and 1 billion aluminum beverage cans.
We've all got a cause to celebrate, and not just on Nov. 15, but every day!

business manager, Covanta Hudson Valley Renewable Energy,

Merchants thanked for Elks' vets lunch
A day to thank our veterans came early this year, as the Wappinger Elks were proud to host their annual luncheon for the veterans from Montrose VA hospital on Oct. 28. The Elks, along with the Ladies of the Elks, saluted members of our armed services for their dedication and service to our country.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the following local merchants for their help in showing our service members the gratitude we feel for them. Dunkin' Donuts (Route 376), Adams Fairacre Farms, Stop & Shop, Hannaford, M&T Bank, Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union, TEG Credit Union, Pete's Deli and Just-A-Buck. Also, DJ Sizzle for providing the music.
Together, we were able to have an event to show the veterans our appreciation for their service to our country.
God bless our servicemen and service members.

secretary, Wappinger Elks Lodge 2609

I have found if i eat the same food consitently i stop loosing , so every few weeks change it up. I have found sometimes if my metabalism is slow i increase for a day or two but stay in calorie range. also i have started eating 4-5 smaller meals and it is working for me.
Use the nutrition tracker and add sodium to track and keep it under 2000 mg a day....you'll be surprised at how you change your food choices to fit the sodium requirements.It will force you to eat more natural foods like fruits and veggies! Stay away from processed foods....You'll feel better!
I have noticed that sometimes the nutritional information changes on food items I have used. EX. Sometimes the fat is 19, and sometimes 16! Be sure when you search for food items already listed, that it matches the package you have exactly or your totals for the day may be off.
I've read it before, but it is working for me. Change your food choices and exercise around--don't get in a rut because your body follows that rut. I have added some regular foods (some that I avoided because of calories) and switched around the times I eat things. I also played around with my workouts--and have lost 9.6 pounds in the past two weeks.

Google, Yahoo to feed maps to Mercedes cars
updated 12:00 pm EDT, Fri August 31, 2007
Maps on Mercs
Mercedes-Benz has forged a deal with Google and Yahoo! to link web maps with GPS data, simplifying in-car navigation services. Both Google Maps and Yahoo! Local Maps will soon have a "Send to Car" option, allowing maps, directions and points of interest to be sent to a Mercedes GPS system, whether the owner's or that of a peer. Once in their cars, people will have to push an "i" button to download the information, which will then be usable either immediately or at a later time. Mercedes' Search & Send system will launch September 5th with the S-class sedan and CL-class coupe, and should be present on all models of the 2008 C-class.

EVERYONE gets stressed. Most of us feel the calloused caress of stress before we even get out of bed in the morning! It's as if anxiety was waiting patiently for us before we even woke up; if we got any sleep at all! We didn't even have time to eat breakfast, or even think about it. Before we even put the key in the ignition or punched the time clock we're already drained from feeling the familiar cycle of cynicism ready to curse and reverse any attempt to be successful that day.
Stress seems inescapable, following us closely, like a suffocating shadow. We feel possessed and powerless because it is dauntless to our attempts to de-stress our distress. Is this inner storm inescapable, or can we simply wait it out and hope the damage isn't too intensive or extensive? While no one is ever completely immune to stress, that doesn't mean that it will always be as disruptive, or destructive in our lives. But how do we keep the tension from turning into trauma and causing more drama in our lives? Can we transform this internal and infernal assassin into an emotionally empowering ally? Yes!
The key to your victory of stress is taking a break before it breaks you. I know we think there isn't time to take a break, but if we don't make the time, we will eventually be forced to take time and the recovery process will be more painful and time consuming. How can we relax long enough to actually relax and recharge while the world keeps rushing ahead and seemingly leaving our bruised behinds behind? Where can we go to get away from it all before we lose it all?
Maybe you've taken that vacation out of desperation only to come home only to find tribulation. Vacations are not bad, but what is the point of going somewhere to 'relax' when you're coming right back to the same things that will stress you out the second you get home? Exactly! We don't need palm trees and beaches; or sunsets and cool breezes. We need to stop trying to escape stress and focus more on learning how to expect it, experience it and then expel it from our lives. This, by the way, will make any other vacation or trip truly enjoyable and really relaxing!
Therefore, over the next few weeks, you and I will be taking a trip. Our destination: RELAXATION! When we return, your passports and your lives will be stamped with less stress and more peace. Sound like a trip worth making? I hope so because in the end it may be the most important trip you've ever taken. Let's get going!
For all queries, conundrums, and questions please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com. We're in this together. Let's make life count because others are counting on us.

TURBO / EFI Packages
In The Shop
Fiscus Klugger Racing 481X
Former drag radial kingpins, Kevin Fiscus and Josh Klugger, have set their primary focus on Pro Mod! After a successful season in 2013, they look to continue winning this year. When it comes to making power, they rely on a PLR 481X, twin Precision Pro Mod 88's, and a Proformance Racing Transmission to put it to the track. Here are some pictures of their build when it was here for a standard freshen up and a few shots of the car from a test session.
John Carinci's 538ci BBC
John Carinci, Pro Line Racing customer out of Ontario, is gearing up for the 2014 racing season. He dropped off his PLR 538ci BBC at our shop for a routine freshen up. Carinci and crew plan to race as much as posible this year in various organizations, including the Outlaw 10.5 Association, Shakedown, and Cecil County.
Murder Nova BBC Turbo Freshen Up
Shawn Ellington, AKA Murder Nova, is in the process of making some big changes to his street car, a flat black 1969 Chevy Nova. Ellington, one of the front-runners in the show Street Outlaws, previously ran a Procharger setup and is making the switch to turbos! He recently sent his engine to Pro Line to be freshened for the new set of twin-turbos. We look forward to seeing the turbocharged Murder Nova in action next season!
PLR 481X Going to Sweden
A Pro Mod racing team out of Sweden called FF-Racing Luleå had us build this PLR 481X beauty for their 67 Camaro built by All In Race Cars. The PLR 481X engine has been shipped to countries across the globe and we can't wait to hear from our Swedish friends as they get the car ready for the track. We will keep you updated on their progress.
El General Racing Spare 481X
We are one week any from the Street Car Super Nationals and the El General Racing Camaro is ready to roll! Las Vegas is a long drive from Georgia, but if there ever was a race that doorslammer records fall, it's this one!
When traveling 2000+ miles from home, it is customary to bring a few extra articles of clothing just in case you might need them. Similarly, when traveling 2000+ miles with the quickest turbo doorslammer in the world, it is customary to bring a spare engine!
The El General Camaro is powered by the PLR 481X turbo engine combination. In case they run into problems, this spare will be swapped out, fired up, and sent down the track at speeds north of 250mph!
Joe Copson's 544ci BBC
With the biggest Outlaw 10.5 race of the year coming up this weekend, the YellowBullet Nationals, it feels fitting to showcase Joe Copson's custom 544ci BBC. This big chevy, paired with twin Precision turbochargers, is the powerplant of Copson's show quality 2010 Outlaw 10.5 Camaro! He dropped his motor by the shop to get it ready for the race. We can't wait to see him back on the track showing what his ride can do!
PLR 540 BBC for American Street Rods
A while back we built a custom PLR 540ci big block chevy turbo engine for a hot rod shop in Oklahoma City, called American Street Rods. Little did we know, it was going to end up in a completely custom '49 Chevy truck. Along with twin Precision 76mm turbos and a complete EFI package, this street rod will be an amazing piece of work! Stay tuned for more info as it becomes available!
Steve Gorman's PLR 481X
The PLR 481X engine platform is quickly becoming the most popular engine we build. We are happy to announce that a well known Outlaw 10.5 racer in New Jersey, Steve Gorman, will be running this engine in his Mustang! We have been racing with Gorman for a long time and we're happy to finally be a part of his team!
You may get a chance to see him at the Yellow Bullet Nationals at Cecil County Dragway on Labor Day weekend and possibly the Shakedown Nationals at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio. He is also a regular at the Cecil County Streetcar Shootout series, and 10.5 races at Atco Raceway!
Frank Pompilio BBF Freshen Up
Long-time Pro Line Racing customer, Frank Pompilio, recentlly sent his PLR 632 BBF back to be freshened up. His big block powers an Outlaw 10.5 twin turbo 1967 Mustang that has always been a crowd favorite. We anticipate seeing Pompilio at several events such as: Cecil County Streetcar Shootout series, The Outlaw 10.5 Association series, Yellowbullet Nationals, and The Shakedown Nationals!
Gerald's PLR 427 LS Mozez
Texas racer, Gerald Bunce, contacted us about building an LS engine for his beautiful C6 Corvette and this is what was created! It is a 427 cubic inch LS engine on alcohol with Mast Mozez heads and a Hogan's sheet metal mainfold. Paired with a set of Precision Pro Mod 88mm turbos, this combo could make upwards of 3300hp!
Stay tuned for more updates on this build, including; a gallery of the race car, initial startup video, testing, and more!
