Swampyville's - Reading Between the Lines!
Is Big Brother/Sister Watching?
THE PATH TO COMPLETE CONTROL By GOVERNMENT IS A
(Reuters) - ..The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's command
center routinely monitors dozens of popular websites, including
Facebook, Twitter, Hulu, WikiLeaks and news and gossip sites
including the Huffington Post and Drudge Report, according to
a government document.
(In my opinion, the Government has always kept an "All Seeing Eye"
on the People. The mentioned sites are being forced "to go along
to get along"!) (Every site you visit or join retains all your
personal information that can be used for a myriad of purposes,
and it usually is!)
..A "privacy compliance review" issued by DHS last November
says that since at least June 2010, its national operations
center has been operating a "Social Networking/Media Capability"
which involves regular monitoring of "publicly available online
forums, blogs, public websites and message boards (Individual
E-Mails, also)."
(In my opinion, it is an effort to see if their current propaganda is
producing the desired results and also to gather information on
the American people!)
..The purpose of the monitoring, says the government document,
is to "collect information used in providing situational
awareness and establishing a common operating picture".
(In my opinion, every American citizen is being watched by "Big
Brother/Sister" in their, the government's, attempt to "coerce"
the people into doing what the government wants them to do!)
..The document adds, using more plain language, that such
monitoring is designed to help DHS and its numerous agencies,
which include the U.S. Secret Service and Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
(In my opinion, it is being used to manipulate public responses to
government actions.)
..A DHS official familiar with the monitoring program said that it was
intended purely to enable command center officials to keep in touch with
various Internet-era media so that they were aware of major, developing
events to which the Department or its agencies might have to respond.
(In my opinion, it will become the government's redaction to their
disactions on behalf of "ALL" the American people!)
..The document outlining the monitoring program says that all the
websites which the command center will be monitoring were "publicly
available and... all use of data published via social media sites
was solely to provide more accurate situational awareness, a more
complete common operating pictures, and more timely information for
decision makers..."
(In my opinion, It will be used to gather information that can be
used against the people. If these sites don't adhere to government
manipulations of the Internet they will be shut down.)
..The DHS official said that under the program's rules, the department
would not keep permanent copies of the internet traffic it monitors.
However, the document outlining the program does say that the operations
center "will retain information for no more than five years."
(In my opinion, they (government) will use this information
against those that they deem to be Anti-Washington Status Quo!)
..The monitoring scheme also features a five-page list, attached to the
privacy review document, of websites the Department's command center
expected to be monitoring.
(In my opinion, they are gathering a "Hit List of Americans" disgruntled
with the current Washington In-Crowd!)
To me it's the same old, same old; "Trust me now and believe me later"
Washington Syndrome! (We have to pass the Bill to see what is in it!)
In my opinion; IN ALL REALITY IT IS THE GOVERNMENT'S ENDEAVOR TO KEEP AN
(Gauging the American people to see how they, the Government, need to
change their corralling tactics!)
(Divide and Rule)

The game gave up on me on turn 74. I use XP.
Not exactly a problem: but at one turn my pieces/armies on the map (the little soldiers that you move around) no longer had textures! They were just completely grey, this problem resolved itself after a simple restart of the game, though.
If it happens to many times the game is tricked into thinking its a illegal copy. I managed to fix mine by reinstalling but it can also be a issue with the steam server not giving you your licence key properly.

"The scenery was beautiful and we were able to travel into the backcountry with guides who knew what they were doing. It was nice that everything was planned for us -- where we would camp, what we would eat. The guides were great -- made me laugh and were so helpful. They really work their butts off. You can't beat how beautiful that area is and to camp on that island right under the Tetons was just wonderful. Grassy was my favorite campsite. I also enjoyed the hikes we did. I loved the food and liked that there were always snacks. It was fun eating lunch on our kayaks."

Gearboxes deliver power from the transmission to the wheels. A vehicle can have three different gearboxes including front differential, rear differential and transfer case.
Extreme high operating temperatures can cause thermal breakdown of the differential fluid leading to a loss of lubrication and deposit formation. This can cause gears to grind while leaving behind metal shavings and other debris.
Our Valvoline Differential and Transfer Case Services (Gearboxes) are thermally stable and help remove deposits - while working to keep new ones from forming. This helps ensure proper gear lubrication.
I went in for a gear box service. I usually do most of the work on my truck myself but did not feel like doing this stuff. I know a fair amount about my truck and repairs and I was impressed by the knowledge of the workers there. When I asked one employee a question I knew the answer to and he did not know the answer, he went and asked another employee and returned with the correct answer. This made me feel very good about the level of service and the work performed.
The Service Center Manager was very knowledgeable in explaining that my newly purchased used jeep probably should have a few fluids changed. My gear boxes needed to be flushed because when I switched from 4x4 to rear wheel drive it was getting stuck. I'm always leery of oil change places that you go into for a simple oil change and they tell you that you need additional services. The manager made me feel really comfortable that they were services I really did need. He was right as soon as it was flushed I tested my 4x4 and it changed gears with no problem. Now I only will go to this service center for any major maintenance service. I can trust this manager and everything he has recommended has made my car better and me feel more confident that my jeep will run well into the hundreds of thousands of miles range.
The staff was great. Helped me with my oil change and recommended me to have my transmission checked. It's nice to know they can inform you on those extra maintenance services as I wouldn't have thought about having that done. I never had it checked before so it was worth it.
For more than 25 years, Valvoline Instant Oil Change has been the quick, easy and trusted partner for oil change and maintenance services. That's why our customers rate us an average of 4.6 out of 5 stars*. Experience the difference for yourself. Find a location near you.

Cost of CAR deployment is R1.26bnComment on this story
Johannesburg - President Jacob Zuma has conceded that the estimated cost of deploying South African troops to the Central African Republic (CAR) for five years is R1.26 billion and not the R65 million he announced last month.
Zuma announced on January 7 – as rebels were advancing on the CAR capital Bangui – that he had authorised the sending of 400 SANDF troops to the country from January 2, 2013 to March 31, 2018.
He told Parliament the same day the estimated cost of the deployment was R65m.
The DA said at the time this figure could not possibly be true.
Zuma told Parliament on Friday that the R65m covered the deployment only until March 31 this year. He said the SANDF had estimated the cost of the deployment after that would be R21m a month.
"This means that the real cost of the employment is estimated to be R1.26bn," DA defence spokesman David Maynier said yesterday.
"We have to get to the bottom of why we are planning to sink… R1.26bn over five years into the Central African Republic."

Historical Comparisons between Various Interest Rates and Growth Rates in the CPI, MCPI, Average Weekly Earnings and Total Compensation in the Employer Cost Index
Ireland, Thomas R., Journal of Legal Economics
Forensic economists who calculate damages in personal injury and wrongful death disagree about appropriate discount rates to use for reducing future values to present value and about growth rates that should be used to project increases in wages, fringe benefits, the price level and the medical component of the price level. Those disagreements take two forms. First, there is debate over which interest rates to consider. Some economists advocate use of instruments of very short maturities only, such as the 9 1 day U.S. Treasury bill rate or the six month U.S. Treasury bill rate. Some advocate use of one year or three year notes or 10 year or 30 year U.S. Treasury bonds. Some advocate use of municipal Aaa rates because of their tax-free features. Some advocate use of rates on Treasury inflation indexed securities and some advocate blended rates. Likewise, there is some disagreement about whether to measure changes in earnings by use of the average weekly earnings series or the employer cost index.
The second form of disagreement focuses on the historical periods that should be considered when choosing both a discount rate and an earnings growth rate. This area of disagreement can be further divided into two issues, The first issue is whether the discount rate and earnings and price growth rates should be treated disparately or in the same manner. Some forensic economists argue that growth rates in earnings and prices should be derived from past data, but the discount rate should be based on current market data. Others argue that if past growth rates in earnings and prices are used, discount rates from the same period should also be used. The second issue is what the appropriate period should be if one is using past data for either growth rates or growth rates in earnings and prices. Should it be five years, ten years, twenty years, or some other period? There is indication of the scope of differences that exist in the 1999 survey of members of the National Association of Forensic Economics (Brookshire and Slesnick 1999).
Those issues notwithstanding, the purpose of this paper is not to argue for or against particular interest rates or historical periods (though this author has expressed his views on these matters elsewhere). Rather, the purpose is to provide broad based data to facilitate whatever historical comparisons any given researcher might wish to make between commonly used growth rates and discount rates. It is this writer's hope that the tables provided in this paper, particularly tables 7 and 8, will enable good forensic economists to quickly disprove factually inaccurate calculations they may confront when looking at the reports of other forensic economists. The rate comparisons provided in this paper include the 91 day Treasury bill rate, the 3 year Treasury note rate, the 10 year Treasury bond rate, the 30 year Treasury bond rate, the muni Aaa rate, the corporate Aaa rate compared with rates of growth in the consumer price index (CPI), the medical component of the consumer price index (MCPI), average weekly earnings, and the total compensation series in the employer cost index (ECI).
For convenience, all data in this paper are taken from the Economic Report of the President: 2000 (Council of Economic Advisors 2000). That convenience imposed limits on the length of the historical periods that could be considered. Table B-71 provides annual values for most of the interest rates back to 1953, allowing for 47 years of comparisons. The only exception is the 30 year U.S. Treasury bond, which only began to be issued in 1977, allowing for 23 years of comparisons. Rates of increase in the CPI and MCPI are taken from table B-3. Data in that table goes back to 1940, but only figures after 1953 were used, based on availability of discount rates from table B-71. Data for the Average Weekly Earnings series in table B-45 starts in 1959, which imposes a 4 1 year limit. Data for the ECI total compensation series is reported only after 1980, imposing a 20 year limit. …

The most prescient portrait of the American character and our ultimate fate as a species is found in Herman Melville's "Moby Dick." Melville makes our murderous obsessions, our hubris, violent impulses, moral weakness and inevitable self-destruction visible in his chronicle of a whaling voyage.
But when a man suspects any wrong, it sometimes happens that if he be already involved in the matter, he insensibly strives to cover up his suspicions even from himself. And much this way it was with me. I said nothing, and tried to think nothing."
The corporate assault on culture, journalism, education, the arts and critical thinking has left those who speak this truth marginalized and ignored, frantic Cassandras who are viewed as slightly unhinged and depressingly apocalyptic. We are consumed by a mania for hope, which our corporate masters lavishly provide, at the expense of truth.
To emotionally accept impending disaster, to attain the gut-level understanding that the power elite will not respond rationally to the devastation of the ecosystem, is as difficult to accept as our own mortality. The most daunting existential struggle of our time is to ingest this awful truth—intellectually and emotionally—and rise up to resist the forces that are destroying us.

Like its predecessor, the Ice House caters to the needs of the neighborhood's scruffy artists and nine-to-fivers alike with excellent barbecue (pulled-pork sandwiches and brisket po' boys). The biggest improvement is the 70-plus beer selection, which ranges from couple-buck cans of Porkslap to capably poured Guinness pints.

The maintenance crew for the Bermudian Springs School District was praised at a recent district meeting for keeping the entire campus accessible during this winter's many snow and ice storms.
"We have had 12 different snow events this year and even if it's just one-half inch of snow, our crews still have to have it all cleared from the parking lots and sidewalks before the kids get here," Superintendent Shane Hotchkiss said.
It took about 30 man hours to cleanup after each snow event, with a total of 360 hours spent just on snow removal, Hotchkiss said. The seven-man crew spent approximately another 150 hours more picking up countless loads of salt, Hotchkiss said.
"They all worked long and hard, well above and beyond anything anyone expected," Hotchkiss said. "The guys all came in at 4 a.m. and worked until 10:30 cleaning the snow and ice, and then they still had to do all their regular work at the schools."
The workers honored were Steve Parr, Marlin Ensor, Norm Sponsellor, Earl "Butch" Herman, Ed Milhimes, Dwayne Hoffman. Ralph Alleman was also honoroed, but was not at the meeting.
Each of the seven maintenance workers received a certificate of appreciation and a round of applause from the administration and the school board.

Ferrari reckons Formula 1 pitstops cannot get any faster
|By Jonathan Noble and Michele Lostia
|Saturday, April 21st 2012, 08:06 GMT
Formula 1 teams are at the limit of pitstop times, reckons Ferrari, which has set the benchmark for tyre changes this year.
The Italian outfit focused hard on improving pitstops over the winter, after ending last year as fourth in the overall rankings behind Red Bull Racing, Mercedes and McLaren.
Now though the team has been the fastest overall as an average in the first three races - having delivered the quickest times in the Australian and Chinese Grands Prix.
And its head of trackside operations, Diego Ioverno, thinks that performance the result of changes to its wheel rim design, wheel nut concept and procedures has left it at the limit of what is possible.
"In practice, so in a more relaxed environment compared to a race, we have managed to get down to 2.2 seconds at the green light," Ioverno said in Bahrain.
"In the last race we managed to do our best pitstops in 2.6 seconds at the green light. Honestly I think it's difficult to think we can manage 2.2 seconds in the race with a car arriving at 100 km/h, and with the variable of where the driver stops the car.
"We can say that, as time goes by and with some improvements we have in mind, perhaps we could get down to 2.4s-2.5s at the green light, but I repeat: the most important thing is to keep up with a good average, because in the end the importance of a pitstop is to guarantee a fixed time delta to whoever does the strategy, avoiding surprises and the risk of falling behind traffic after a stop."
Ioverno says that as well as copying Mercedes' idea of encased wheel nuts in the rim, Ferrari revised its air guns and changed its wheel nuts which rotate just three times now to be fully engaged, rather than the more standard six.
"In detail: we have worked on air guns with our suppliers, obviously by making them more powerful, trying to compensate for the limitations added by the federation [the ban on helium]," he said.
"We have worked on the car layout, by making fairly strategic and different, risky choices. So we have the captive nut, joint with the rim. We have made some screw thread choices, in order to optimise fastening speed. We have made an important electronic development work on the light system: Ferrari was the first team with a lights system, and I think today we are again the leaders with the light system after having introduced the lights on the jacks.
"The jack operator now doesn't look at the air-gun holder's hands, but he looks at a light that switches on on the trolley when the corner mechanics have finished. So, all these things allow us to minimise the big remaining issues: reaction time, and the precautions needed to be taken to avoid mistakes.
"Clearly I'm just taking about team time with a car standing still under controlled conditions; on top of that there's a big work we are doing with the drivers, also to educate them on the importance of the effect of the car stopping position and method has on the team's confidence in doing its operations - and also how important is the way they approach the pitstop: in the braking, the stopping position and the getting away."

The Porkers Fight Back
"Yesterday, I was interviewed by Ward Carroll, editor of Military.com for a podcast. We discussed the congressional actions on the Defense Department's authorization and appropriations bills, focusing on the atrocious way porkers like Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., use readiness money to pay for their hardware ad-ons—in this case the F-22 Raptor. We also talked about the porkers' resurgence in the House version of the DoD appropriations bill. While giving way in the face of serious opposition on the F-22, Congressman John Murtha, D-Pa., slathered up the bill big time with several hundred earmarks and more C-17s, F-18s, VH-71s, and a missile defense program with a Johnstown, Pa. connection. (See Taxpayers for Common Sense on this story.)
Murtha has become such a symbol of everything that is wrong with how Congress exploits the defense budget for selfish and corrupt purposes that we should perhaps call these practices ""Murtha-ism.""
Military.com Podcast Interview with Ward Carroll.
The goal of the Straus Military Reform Project is to secure far more effective military forces and much more ethical and professional military and civilian leadership at significantly lower budget levels.
We would like to thank Philip A. Straus Jr. and family for their generous support.

Good dental health is critical to overall well-being
The U.S. Surgeon General recognizes oral health as an integral part of a person's total health, with the dentist being the primary oral health care provider.
The vast majority of dental diseases are infectious, irreversible and destructive. They can only be successfully diagnosed and treated by a licensed doctor of dental surgery (DDS) or dental medicine (DMD) with support from a qualified dental staff.
Regular, preventive care is an affordable choice
Regular exams, X-rays and preventive care protect against advanced dental disease, saving individuals pain, dollars and time in the dental chair over the long term.
Over a 12-month period in Wisconsin, the cost of two routine cleanings, dental exams and a set of X-rays (necessary for comprehensive and accurate dental diagnosis) averages $26 per month (2013 Schenck Dental Fee Survey). This is less per month than the average cellphone bill of $63 per month (2010 Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Expenditure Survey).
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Oral Health Program reports that in 2010, more than 27,860 patient visits to hospital emergency departments statewide were for non-traumatic dental complaints. The average cost per dental-related visit was $420 (averages $35 per month).
Dental 'insurance' not required
A dental benefit plan or "dental insurance" is not required to see a dentist.
Patients should carefully review the cost of a dental benefit plan before purchase by comparing the average annual cost of a household's dental bills with the proposed 12 monthly premium payments for "dental insurance". It may make more financial sense to pay out-of-pocket for dental care than to pay a monthly premium.
Dental offices help patients make their oral health a priority with treatment plans and payment options: Cash, check, debit card, personal credit card, patient credit agreements, third-party financing plans and/or installments (usually reserved for long-term patients who dentists know well).
Individuals have a lot of control over their dental health. Parents make good dental health a family priority when they model good personal oral hygiene habits and help children make teeth brushing and flossing a part of their daily routine.
Good personal oral hygiene practices include:
- Brush teeth with fluoridated toothpaste and a soft-bristle brush for two minutes, twice a day
- Floss daily
- Eat a healthy diet
- Minimize consumption of acidic, sugary beverages, such as soft drinks, fruit juice and sports drinks
- Drink fluoridated water
- Don't use tobacco products
- Make regular visits to the dentist for a professional exam, cleaning and X-rays
- Ask your dentist about fluoride applications/supplements and sealants
- Treat dental disease in the early stages

Netflix shoots itself in the foot... aka no more free streaming

Re: Netflix shoots itself in the foot... aka no more free streaming
Thinking about dropping them altogether. I use the 2x dvd thing pretty regularly, but don't return them as quickly as I could. I don't use the streaming a ton because they don't have newer things on there. If they want to go to this pricing model, you'd think they'd have the streaming up to the same par (and release dates) as the dvd media. Charging the premium, providing 2nd tier service for it. No thanks.
Most of my actual discs are newer releases, maybe i'll just quit and do Red Box, probably save a bunch of money. Had been catching up on old Stargate SG-1 episodes, but there's always other methods if they don't want my money...
Perhaps, if I am very lucky, the feeble efforts of my lifetime will someday be noticed and maybe, in some small way, they will be acknowledged as the greatest works of genius ever created by man. ~Jack Handey

I have a problem with my Washing Machine. When I put it on a normal cycle everything works until it goes to the rinse and it just keeps filling up without stopping. It doesn't overflow or anything, it just keeps filling up with Water until I hit the knob to stop it. It has done this twice now, and I have left the house and come back 2+ hour later and its still on rinse. From what I've read there could be a sensor. Has anyone ran into this before?
Fills ok, water stops.
Agitates ok, agitation stops.
Pause, which is normal.
Drain/pump out should occur but washer starts to fill with water again on top of the soapy water already there.
Push in timer knob and the filling water stops.

Check the following -
Water-inlet valve
Water-level switch
Water-inlet valve
A defect in the water-inlet valve may mean that it's no longer able to shut off completely when the electricity has been turned off to it. If this occurs, the valve may leak and drip water into the clothes tub. In time, the water may accumulate substantially. If this happens, you need to replace the valve.
Water-level switch
A defect--or an obstruction--in the water-level switch may mean that it can't tell the water to shut off. So the machine overflows. This switch senses the water level in the clothes tub. It's usually a diaphragm device with a small, clear tube attached between the switch and the bottom of the washer's outer tub. As the water level in the tub increases, the pressure on the air in the tube increases. When the pressure reaches a certain level, it activates the switch, shuts off the water, and signals the timer to begin the agitate cycle. You can either clear any obstruction in the tube or replace the water-level switch.

A New Global Partnership: Mounting Optimism for Global Action on Sustainable Development
John Romano, Global Fellow, International Program, New York City
With the holidays upon us and the new year quickly approaching, we are in the season of both reflection and new beginnings. Looking back on this year, we've seen a seismic shift in momentum build around our work at the United Nations to encourage partnerships and concrete commitments to action on a wide range of sustainability issues. But much work remains in the new year ahead, where discussions are in full swing on forging a new set of global sustainable development goals (SDGs) and countries are marching forward towards a new global treaty on climate change; with both processes set to culminate in 2015.
Last week I joined key ministers, diplomats, and thought-leaders who came together at United Nations Headquarters in New York for the sixth session of the Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals (OWG) – the UN body deliberating on a universal set of global goals to replace the expiring Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015. In the spirit of the holiday season, we saw promising signs that give us plenty of hope and optimism for our collective work in the new year.
What was encouraging last week was the group's discussion on the "architecture" for "a new global partnership" to drive transformative action needed to provide any hope to today's young people like myself that there will be a brighter and more sustainable future.
Previously, the OWG has focused largely on specific issues – such as energy, poverty eradication, water, health, food security and many others. However, last week's session instead focused on "how" this new agenda will be implemented through a new global partnership for sustainable development involving all actors – including governments at all levels, the private sector and civil society – which is the main focus of NRDC's work on this new agenda.
These discussions on the new sustainable development agenda over the past several months have made it abundantly clear that we must re-think traditional approaches to action, implementation and accountability if we are to collectively achieve the goals set out by this new agenda. We must move beyond using purely traditional approaches and means of implementation like Official Development Assistance (ODA) and foreign aid and harness the full potential of partnerships between governments, the private sector and civil society. We must shift our mindset from the typical "donor-recipient" relationship to forge an inclusive and action-oriented global partnership that will deliver the transformative change that is so desperately needed. And finally, the new global partnership must foster a sense of ownership with the billions of young people around the world that are desperate for change and a fair shot at an equitable and sustainable future.
On December 10th, NRDC co-hosted the marquee side-event alongside the Open Working Group discussions on the topic of "global partnership," with the Permanent Mission of Romania to the UN. The event, entitled "A New Global Partnership Architecture: Catalyzing Action on the Post-2015 Development Agenda", featured a diverse range of speakers who provided perspectives from national governments from the global north and south, local authorities, the private sector, civil society and the UN system, and was moderated by NRDC Executive Director Peter Lehner.
The panel called for an architecture for the new global partnership that ensures accountability on commitments to action, and for a stronger focus on commitments as a means of implementation on sustainable development. They also expressed the belief that countries do have an appetite for designing the structures for the SDGs in dramatically different ways from the MDGs — both in implementation and follow up.
Mrs. Anca Jurcan, Deputy Permanent Representative of the Permanent Mission of Romania to the UN elegantly stated that "daily life in the global village requests all neighbors not only to pay attention to each other, but also to come and work together towards sustainability." Dr. Yanuar Nugroho, Director and Special Advisor to the President's Delivery Unit for Development Monitoring and Oversight for the Republic of Indonesia mentioned that "the new global partnership is the enabler; the new agenda can't occur without it."
That same day, Jacob Scherr, NRDC's director of Global Strategy & Advocacy, presented NRDC's proposal for a new architecture for a new global partnership during the Stakeholders Meeting with the OWG co-chairs, Ambassador Csaba Kőrösi of Hungary and Ambassador Macharia Kamau of Kenya. The proposal is a contribution to an ongoing conversation to define and design the architecture for a "new global partnership" to engage millions of leaders from every sector around the world in the implementation of this new agenda.NRDC is advocating for new structures which will support, encourage, and hold accountable these partnerships and commitments to action, to deliver more effective action on the ground. This "partnerships" and "commitments to action" approach should be seen as a new form of the means of implementation for the post-2015 development agenda, and should indeed complement the traditional approaches like ODA and intergovernmental agreements.
The proposal builds on the discussions begun at NRDC's "Rio+20 to 2015: A New Architecture for a Sustainable New World" Conference last month at Yale University, which brought together more than 180 officials, scholars, practitioners, and students to discuss these issues.
Later in the day, Unilever CEO Paul Polman spoke on the keynote panel for the discussions on "a new global partnership," and noted that "the issues we face are simply too big for any one party to solve it themselves" and that "we shouldn't put these goals out there without talking about the partnership mechanism that brings all these stakeholders together for delivery." Indeed, what has been made clear from these discussions last week is the criticality of the supporting architecture for this "new global partnership" to deliver on this new agenda.
While last week's events presented encouraging signs and mounting optimism, much work remains in the new year ahead of us; including our work to establish a "Partnership on Partnerships", our work around sustainable cities and our ongoing work to institute a new global partnership architecture for the post-2015 development agenda.

Think Globally, Act Locally (and Individually!)
While I am in awe of the people and organizations described in this article and their work, I am more and more convinced that, at this point in time, local action is THE critical path to transforming to sustainable systems. I work on state level energy planning and am beginning to work locally within my town. I wonder if the amazingly brilliant people mentioned above, and others involved in national and international think tanks and conferences, could cease flying around the globe for 2 years to give their expertise to local planners and citizens. Education and systems thinking is needed at the local level. I TRUELY BELIEVE THE PUSH MUST COME FROM THE BOTTOM UP in order to set up local systems, shift individual everyday choices, and create a ground swell of citizen support for action among politicians and philanthropists.

Marco Trungelliti-Facundo Bagnis
The match between Marco Trungelliti and Facundo Bagnis will end with under 22.50 games in ordinary time at odds 1.83

Marco Trungelliti is set to take to take on Facundo Bagnis in an all-Argentinian affair in the SF's of the Santiago Challenger (Clay courts) after defeating Massu, Capdeville and Alund impressively. Similarly, Bagnis has reached this stage by making some impressive wins over Dutra Silva and Alejandro Gonzalez. Trungelliti has made an impressive start to 2013 with 7 wins to 3 losses on clay - although these stats are matched by Bagnis' from with 6 wins to 4 losses on clay this year.

I believe both player's are currently enjoying the best form of their careers so far and will challenge each other indefinitely to keep their form up. I foresee a closely fought match here, possibly three sets, exceeding the 22.5 game boundary.

Good luck.

The SF Arts Commission's "SHIFT" asks America to put aside its discomfort and talk about race
HAIRY EYEBALL Sometimes it seems like Americans would rather undergo a root canal than honestly talk about race in this country. Witness the rounds of recrimination and defensive posturing on all sides that followed the Washington Post's recent front page story that the hunting camp Texas governor Rick Perry has long frequented was formerly known as "Niggerhead."
Perry acknowledged that the camp's original name was "offensive," and in a move akin to the white paint that Perry's own father brushed onto the rock on which it is carved, tellingly declared, "[it] has no place in the modern world." This is a story a lot of people, not just Republican Texans, like to tell themselves about racism — it's all in the past, or, if racism manifests itself presently, it is a crime committed by only the most egregious and malicious perpetrators. It's this kind of magical thinking that makes a narrative like The Help, with its privileged-but-sympathetic heroine giving her cartoonishly racist sisters their comeuppance, a guaranteed best-seller and a box-office draw.
How refreshing then is SHIFT, a series of solo projects by Bay Area artists David Huffman, Elizabeth Axtman, and Travis Somerville newly commissioned by the San Francisco Arts Commission. Employing different mediums and narrative strategies—crowd-sourced community intervention (Axtman), historical reconstruction (Somerville), science fiction-tinged Afro Futurism (Huffman) — each artist works through the messy business of how race is lived in America today in ways that are deeply personal, and at times, politically oblique.
Huffman's contribution, "Out of Bounds," which takes over most of the SFAC's Van Ness gallery space (401 Van Ness, SF), packs the most visual impact of SHIFT's three propositions and also leaves the most dots to connect. At its center is a towering pyramid of 650 basketballs, held in place solely by gravity and a simple wood frame at the pile's base. The smell of rubber hits your nostrils before you have a chance to take in the piece visually.
Huffman, whose background is in painting, has materialized this formation before in a 2006 series of mixed media canvases which depict similar heaps of balls next to barren trees, as if they were piles of raked autumn leaves. Its current sculptural incarnation is far more monumental, like some arrangement of mythological fruit. But unlike Jeff Koons' 1985 hermetically-sealed, readymade "Three Ball 50/50 Tank (Two Dr. J. Silver Series, One Wilson Supershot)," Huffman's pyramid is in fact temporary: the balls will be donated to local charities after the piece is deconstructed.
Spheres and pyramids abound throughout "Out of Bounds," as Huffman — who is African American — uses basketball as a kind of metaphoric lingua franca across his videos (his first pieces in the medium) and abstract paintings of astronomic clusters of balls to convey other forms of travel, whether across racial or temporal lines. Not everything translates, but maybe that's the point. The sight of a spacesuit-clad Huffman comically embracing his way through a grove of redwoods in the video "Traumanaut Tree Hugger" is both silly and discomfiting, a humorous send-up of the supposed color-blindness of progressive politics and an unintended portrait of total isolation from other humans.

IT leaders must change their approach to 'big data' if they are to avoid expensive investments further down the line, according to analyst firm Gartner.
Gartner's report, Getting Value from Big Data, stated that information managers are too focused on volume and not looking at other factors, such as the variety or velocity of the data.
Mark Beyer, research vice president at Gartner, said: "Information management disciplines and technologies are simply not up to the task of handling these different dimensions currently."
Variety refers to the different types of information now available for analysis, such as that being made available via social media and mobile.
Gartner suggests the variety should include tabular data (databases), hierarchical data, email, metering data, video, still images, audio and financial transactions.
Velocity refers to the speed at which the data is being produced and the turnover time required for useful analysis.
"IT leaders must educate their business counterparts on the challenges, while ensuring some degree of control and co-ordination, so that the big data opportunity doesn't become big data chaos, which may raise compliance risks, increase costs and create silos," said Beyer.

I got about 100 sheets of FP4 and HP5 4x5 film for $5 the other day and want to shoot it, but I sold my 4x5 years ago. So, I thought I'd try a crack at 4x5 pinhole photography as I have a 4x5 enlarger and it's pretty intriguing to me. I got holders already with anticipation to buy a 4x5 pinhole. I'd rather not make my own -I'm pretty hard on my equipment and I want something I can throw in the saddle bag of my motorcycle or in my backpack constantly, so it needs to be rugged.
-25-35mm (35mm equivalent) wide angle. No longer, no wider please.
-rugged (wood or metal)
-shipping to Canada
-takes 4x5 holders
-I don't want a 4x5 that tries to replicate the sharpness or clarity of a 4x5 camera, but also don't want a distorted sense of reality with extremely soft and harshly drawn in vignetting.
-able to mount to a tripod.
I haven't shot pinhole in a while and not in 4x5 format ever, so I'm not sure what I really want, but let me know what you have and I'll do the research. I don't know how well something like a cheap B&J or Cambo with pinhole board would hold up, but I'm interested in that too if the buyer can share their experience with that system.
Thanks in advance.

"Carefree and relaxing holiday with many different options of things to do easily availible"
Very well presented and equiped cottage with the owners going the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need. The friendly and knowledgeable Dougie and Christine were helpful and free with advice and suggestions about places and attractions in the area. We went to so many places and saw so much I could not mention it all. The R.I.B. trip from North Berwick out to the Bass Rock was, for us, a amazing experience, wet, salty,cold and fast, but to see(and smell) 120,000 Gannets wheeling and diving around us was unforgettable. Another day was spent in Edinburgh where the Museum took up two thirds of the day and we did not see it all.
Nice people who liked the cottage very much. Hopeully the start of many more reviews on this - our new site, our other site has many reviews. many thanks Dougie
