Figures of newspaper readership by IPSOS doubted and criticised...
October 14, 2012 9:22 by Muhammad Aldalou
With many arguing that the print newspaper industry is, for lack of a better term, on its way out, those with a fighting chance cling on to any hope of domination of influence and readership.
After the results of a study released by IPSOS found the Al Jazirah to be the top daily in Saudi Arabia in terms of readership; the lower ranked papers weren't entirely pleased. The study, conducted by the global market research company, ranks the readership of the top print newspapers in the Kingdom. Al Jazirah is by far, the only officially audited paper in Saudi Arabia.
Al Riyadh, dismayed to discover the results had placed it as being the fifth most read, began shooting accusatory arrows at both its rival newspaper as well as IPSOS's findings. The global research agency was dubbed (by Al Riyadh) as a 'statistics shop', implying that their results can easily be 'bought and manipulated' and that Al Jazirah is merely 'a customer for the sale of delusional studies and statistics'.
It also added that Al Jazirah's desperation for growth in distribution has pushed them to distribute their copies to universities and government offices. Al Jazirah retaliated by saying that 'we'd rather be distributed in universities than at shops in gas stations'.
With the absence of an official auditing body to frequently validate research concerning readership and distribution and with no upcoming initiative in sight, this could hardly be the last rumble of its kind.
"IPSOS accepts and welcomes constructive criticism that aims to improve but we reject any misleading or subjective criticism aimed solely at harming our reputation," the company firmly stated in an email release, in response to 'malicious' accusations. "Our offices in Saudi Arabia are some of the largest in the region and we have been able to become the leader within the kingdom based on our integrity, reliability and ability to deliver world class information."
Saudi residents took to Twitter to discuss the comments lunged from both ends. Funnily enough, they also dug up and revealed the ironic fact that Al Riyadh, despite its efforts to prove that the IPSOS results were manipulated, also uses the agency as a source for studies and statistics.
All in all, it does once again highlight the lack of transparency among print newspapers and advertisers in the Kingdom. Should there be more of an initiative to bring sufficient validity and clarity, or simply ignore it as the world turns away from papers and onto screens?

Resolved questions
How would you explain this sentence?
CLOUDS SPREAD OUT over the Atlantic like soiled linens on an unmade bed. I knew, watching them, that if in any given moment a measurement could be made it would show how tentative was my mind's mastery over my heart. Such small arrangements make a life, and though it's hard to get close to saying what the heart is, it must at least be that which rushes to spill out of those parentheses which were the beginning and the end of my war: the old life disappearing into the dust that hung and hovered over Nineveh even before it could be recalled and longed for, young and unformed as it was, already broken by the time I reached the furthest working of my memory.
How would you explain the last long sentence? Can I comprehend that the heart is the old life which is lost in the process of his war?
Thank you.

I recommend not looking for a lot of meaning in this sentence. It seems like the author is way into what I call subjective La-la Land, and not a lot in touch with objective reality. For that reason I would have guessed the author was an woman, or at least a woman trying to write from the viewpoint of a man, and not doing a very good job of it. If I were reading this book I would put it down and find another. There is just too much illogic and disconnection from reality for me to expect a good story to come out of it.

50th Reunion of Alumni of St: Peter's Kolenchery
Expand Messages
- Dear Moderators,
Please post the following message in the SOCM forum. We will be obliged.
It is proposed to have the "Golden Jubilee Reunion" of the 1963 SSLC batch of the St:Peter's High School Kolenchery in 2013 to be held at Kolenchery. Some of us are still around, a few have already gone to their heavenly abode while a few others are down physically and metaphysically. It is proposed to have a get together of all who are willing and able to share our reminisces of the past. As you know, some of us never met after 1963, although all are from the neighboring villages. A very few are still in friendship and fellowship. Some of us have made to the top of echelon of the society by education, hard work and exposure.
Why not meet all of us, with spouses, as we were some 50 years ago? Your ideas, views and advices are earnestly solicited. In the afternoon of our lives, we may be able to do something positive and productive to the school and community we grew up in.
Please contact with your suggestions

The rumors were swirling around the Blue Springs South tennis complex without benefit of the unseasonable spring breezes that caught many of the Jaguar and Rockhurst players off guard.
"Did you hear," whispered a member of the South tennis team. "Nick got in."
The rumors were swirling around the Blue Springs South tennis complex without benefit of the unseasonable spring breezes that caught many of the Jaguar and Rockhurst players off guard.
"Did you hear," whispered a member of the South tennis team. "Nick got in."
A mom leaned back and told a member of the Jaguars' cheering section, "No matter what happens tonight, it's going to be a great night for Nick and his family."
Even South coach Sheri Rehmer and former Jaguars standout Bret Berryman got in on the conversation.
"When you talk to Nick after his match," Rehmer said, "you might want to ask him about UMKC."
Berryman, who is now a member of the UMKC tennis team, added, "I'm so stoked that Nick's coming to UMKC. I can hardly wait."
For the past two years, Nick Monaco has worked toward getting accepted into the University of Missouri-Kansas City six-year BA-MD program.
It's one of the most competitive medical programs in the nation, with just more than 100 of the nearly 1,000 applicants getting accepted, and enables those in the program to graduate in six years total with a bachelor's degree as well as a medical degree.
While he was playing Rockhurst's Andrew Edmonds Wednesday afternoon in the No. 1 singles match between two of the most respected and successful teams in the state, the word began to spread that Monaco had been accepted.
"He's in, I know it," Berryman said, "but you have to talk to Nick about it. It has to be official."
Monaco dropped a classic match to Edmonds, his longtime friend and rival from Rockhurst, 6-2, 4-6, 10-8.
As he came off the court, he accepted handshakes from members of the Rockhurst and South tennis teams, South students and family members.
Monaco, a young man who takes the term competitive to the next level, then smiled.
You usually don't see a smile on his face following a loss, even following a match where both players left everything on the court and the outcome could have gone either way.
But this smile was genuine.
It transcended the game of tennis.
"It's totally unofficial," Monaco said, "but I think I'm in."
To be officially accepted into the program, an applicant must receive the official letter from UMKC.
"I don't have the letter – yet," Monaco said, "but my dad has talked to some people, and I think I'm in."
Following the match against Rockhurst, which the Jaguars lost 8-1 in an outcome that was actually closer than the final score might indicate, the Monaco family went out to dinner.
Following dinner, Nick's father, Dr. Michael Monaco, looked in the mailbox and there was a letter from UMKC.
Page 2 of 2 - "I couldn't believe it," Monaco said about two hours after the match against the Hawklets ended. "It's official. The pressure is off my shoulders. I don't have to worry about where I'm going to school, and I'm going to my dream school.
"It's perfect! It's amazing! I wish I could tell you how I feel, but I just can't describe it."
Not only is Monaco going to be a part of the UMKC medical program, he's going to be reunited with former South teammates Berryman and Nick Hays.
"It will be like a homecoming," Monaco said. "My family and I have thought about this for such a long time. It was a hard decision to take last year off (from high school tennis) to compete in the Missouri Valley.
"But I think that paid off. The coaches I needed to see me play were able to see me play. My dream was going to UMKC, getting in the medical program and playing tennis.
"How many high school seniors can say their dream just came true?"
Now that he knows where he's going to college, he believes his tennis game will take on a whole look.
"I talked with Coach Rehmer today and told her I'm going to ramp everything up," Monaco said. "I've been thinking about college for so long, and now, all I have to worry about are my high school classes and my senior tennis season.
"I've always worked hard at everything I've done. I'm going to get mentally and physically stronger and am going to make this a special season."

Sweet Little Monica
As the headline reads, I'm Monica (nice to meet you) and I'm new in town looking to meet new people. Other than being new, I'm a generally easy going person, tend to be quiet and enjoy listening while others talk it up with conversations. My typical week night is to cook some dinner, relax and watch TV, or surf the web. Weekends, well, I love to party - responsibly. Not the kind of lady that would drink more than two. I love going to Europe for vacation. I love Paris, Rome, Venice, Florence, and some day (hopefully) I will visit Budapest. My date is a nice and quiet guy. Respectful. Intelligent. Articulate. Funny. But these are all very subjective, and will surface once there is a dialogue. So please feel free to drop me a line to say hello and see where it goes!

- valacyclovir
The hydrochloride salt of the L-valyl ester of the antiviral drug acyclovir. Orally administered, valacyclovir is rapidly converted to acyclovir which inhibits viral DNA replication after further conversion to the nucleotide analog acyclovir triphosphate by viral thymidine kinase, cellular guanyl cyclase, and a number of other cellular enzymes. Acyclovir triphosphate competitively inhibits viral DNA polymerase; incorporates into and terminates the growing viral DNA chain; and inactivates viral DNA polymerase. The greater antiviral activity of acyclovir against herpes simplex virus (HSV) compared with varicellla-zoster virus (VZV) is due to its more efficient phosphorylation by HSV thymidine kinase. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)

Wonderful Little ShopPosted on 10 / 20 / 2013
I really love this little store! It has a pretty good bulk section with plenty of dried beans, fruits, nuts and even gluten free flours and nutritional yeast. They have a wonderful selection of fruits and veggies, many of them organic. Their prices are great, but I have found that a lot of their packaged foods can tend to be pricier than other stores. They do tend to offer a better selection of organic or vegetarian/vegan foods than you can find at other shops. I just love coming in and letting my son pick a healthy treat. The staff is so friendly and helpful and always seem to be having a great time. It is a lovely atmosphere that you do not get at big chain health stores.
Cons: Pricier packaged goods

Ice causes interstate woes
MONTPELIER Rapid icing of Interstate 89 in the Berlin and Montpelier area led to a three-vehicle accident and sent several others off the road Monday evening.
The accident was reported just before 9 p.m. near Exit 7. The northbound lane was shut down for a time so the accident could be cleared.
Earlier, at least half a dozen cars slid off the highway between exits 8 and 9, according to reports to dispatchers.
Authorities responding to the slide-offs at about 8:30 reported solid ice on the roadway, and one said he was unable to stop even at 20 mph.
Traffic became backed up at Exit 8 as southbound tractor-trailers and other vehicles were unable to make it up the hill on the interstate.MORE IN Central Vermont

McKeesport defense features top players
Mike White | 7:35 a.m. Friday, Oct. 10
McKeesport's offense has grabbed the headlines, averaging 42.3 points a game. But McKeesport's defense has been just as impressive.
McKeesport's defense has allowed only 48 points all season, and the Tigers' defense has a few players who have a future in Division I college football. Dana Brown is a 6-foot-1, 260-pound senior defensive tackle who has scholarship offers from Ohio University, Kent State and a few other Mid-American Conference schools.
Inside linebacker Carlos Brown is a 6-3, 235-pound junior and McKeesport coach George Smith expects him to be a top prospect next year.
"Dana is very quick, fast, athletic. He's real good," Smith said. "Carlos is a good one. He'll have [scholarship] offers next year.
"This defense gets overshadowed by the offense but this defense is very good."
Oct. 23. That's the date many WPIAL football fans have circled. That's when McKeesport plays Gateway in a Thursday night game.
4,00 yards? No big deal
Go back 25 years and remember what a big deal it was when a WPIAL running back would reach 4,000 yards rushing? I remember when Swissvale's Brian Chizmar did it in the mid 1980s. It was a gigantic feat and the school made a big deal of it.
Not so any more. East Allegheny's Monte Ashby went over 4,000 yards last week and it barely was mentioned in newspapers. Years ago, it was headline material.
There is a reason the 4,000-yard mark isn't as big of a deal as it was years ago. It's because so many running backs have reached the mark. The WPIAL started playing football in the early 1900s. Through 1987, only six runners reached 4,000 yards. Since 1988, 33 WPIAL runners have reached 4,000.
There are a few reasons why more running backs have reached 4,000. First, you see many more sophomores and even freshmen playing these days. Thirty to 40 years ago, it was a big deal when a sophomore was in the starting lineup. Now, it's not that big when a freshman starts. Thus, running backs start running earlier in their careers.
Secondly, teams get more games nowadays, which means more carries, which means more yards. Nowadays, four teams from every conference make the WPIAL playoffs. Years ago, only the conference champion made the playoffs. In the 1960s and before, only two teams made the playoffs and played for the championship.
Not to demean anyone who rushes for 4,000 yards, but the benchmark for greatness now should probably be 5,000 yards.

Fichte and Kant on Freedom, Rights, and Law
Lexington Books, 2008 - Philosophy - 246 pages
Beck provides the first comparative book-length introduction to Kant's and Fichte's theories of freedom, law, and politics, together with an overview of the metaphysical and epistemological edifice underpinning their thinking. He provides a critical analysis of the underlying normative foundations of Kant's and Fichte's theories of rights as the central theme around which the broader discussion is structured. Going against received interpretation and common scholarly opinion, Beck's study demonstrates that Kant's and Fichte's respective theories of law and of natural rights call into question the analytical link between autonomy and a rights-based political liberalism in crucial respects. Contrary to received scholarship, Beck concludes that Kant's theory of rights, like Fichte's, contains an unsettling message for many incompletely reasoned contemporary liberal theories of rights, which rarely discuss those additional ontological, epistemological and psychological foundations on which the defense of liberal individualistic rights ultimately rests.

North Marion dumps Dunnellon in district
Published: Wednesday, February 9, 2011 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 11:54 p.m.
After watching Dunnellon rain five 3s on his team in the first half, North Marion's Jeremy Singleton wanted revenge.
So the 6-foot-2 Colts senior came out firing from behind the arc in the third quarter.
"I knew I was going to try," Singleton said. "We were all in their face (in the first half) and they were still making them."
Singleton hit three 3s in a 70-second span of the third quarter, pulled North Marion out of a first-half deficit and guided the Colts to a 60-55 win over the upset-minded Tigers in Tuesday's District 4A-5 quarterfinals.
The third-seeded Colts (14-11) held serve in the tournament's afternoon opener and advanced to Friday's early semifinal against No. 2 Lake Weir, which ousted No. 7 Belleview later Tuesday.
But it wasn't easy against a Dunnellon team that had played far better in recent weeks than its 6-21 record would indicate.
"They took it to us for a while until we decided we wanted to come out and play a little defense," North Marion head coach David Waters said. "We talked about this all year, that this district tournament can go any way. Whoever's hot for these next three days can make it happen."
Singleton led the Colts with 19 points, while playing effective late defense against high-scoring Tiger guard Reid Love,
"He's been that guy all year," Waters said. "He's real sneaky, but he does things on defense, he grabs rebounds and he gets baskets when you need them.
"It's great to have a senior that will step up."
Junior center Latrial Patterson had 13 points and 10 rebounds for North Marion. Junior point guard Travis Fletcher added two more 3s to Singleton's trio in the third quarter -- which was won 21-11 by the Colts -- and finished with 12 points and 10 assists.
Dunnellon was paced by Love's 19 points, while Malaun Humbert scored 17 including four of the Tigers' first-half 3s.
But Humbert missed a potential game-tying 3 with 30 seconds left, and Love misfired on a chance to make it a one-point game with 12 seconds to go.
Dunnellon "has come a long way since the start of the season," Waters said. "They out-hustled us for the majority of the game. They got after it."
LAKE WEIR 74, BELLEVIEW 60: Dee Lewis torched the seventh-seeded Rattlers for 32 points as the Hurricanes (20-5) advanced to face North Marion in Friday's early semifinal.
Tamarrio Riley added 18 points for Lake Weir, which was sluggish in the early going and led just 28-26 at the half.
Belleview was paced by Alvin Smith's 24 points, while Daniel Vasquez scored 13 for the Rattlers.
EASTSIDE 63, VANGUARD 48: The fifth-seeded Knights (10-14) suffered a season-ending loss to the fourth-seeded Rams.
Marcus Hagins scored 16 points in his final game for Vanguard, while Raheem Freeman added 12.
Rodney Mills paced Eastside with 14 points.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Careers In Wine
Whether you want to make it, distribute it, sell it, teach it or write about it, there's a place for you in the wine industry. A guide to getting in and moving up.
At one time or another just about every wine lover has fantasized about buying a small vineyard in a rustic corner of Napa Valley and making their own wine. Such flights of fancy most often arise after a glass or two of dazzling Cabernet or mesmerizing Merlot, and most folks quickly come to their senses as the warm glow from the grape fades.
But for those who are seriously considering a career in the wine industry—or are simply curious about what it's like to work in the trade—the possibilities are boundless. In California, where 90 percent of U.S. wine is produced, more than 145,000 people work in the industry, including 4,400 grape growers, according to the Wine Institute, a San Francisco-based trade group.
What follows is a highly arbitrary and (we hope) enlightening survey of some key jobs in the wine industry. We talked with scores of people working in the trade—from coopers and cellar masters to sales reps and master sommeliers. We asked them to describe their overall responsibilities and daily duties, the things they love and (rarely) loathe about their jobs, the background and training needed to perform their jobs, the next step on the career ladder and the salary one could expect to earn at entry level and at the top of one's chosen profession. Nearly everyone we spoke with shared at least two things in common: a passion for wine and a genuine affection for the people who work in the industry.
To make the information easier to digest, the survey is divided into three categories: Production (which includes such jobs as winemaker, consultant, vineyard manager, cellar worker and cooper); Distribution (which includes importer and exporter, distributor, marketing director, auctioneer and sales rep); and Retail, Restaurant, Etc. (which includes restaurateur, wine shop owner, sommelier, writer and educator).
Salaries are designated as follows:
$ = under $30,000; $$ = $30,000-$75,000; $$$ = $75,000-$150,000; and $$$$ = over $150,000.
Job Description: "Put great wine in the bottle," is the way David Ramey, director of winemaking at Rudd Winery in Oakville, California, sums up his job. The winemaker is responsible for every facet of the winemaking process, from deciding which grapes to use and when to harvest them to determining when to bottle and ship the wine. She also oversees construction projects and equipment purchases, dealing with suppliers and distributors, and hiring and training staff.
Perks: Taste great wines. Dine at top restaurants. Travel to France, Italy, South America and other winemaking regions. "You come in contact with a lot of good living, great food and interesting people," says Test. "It sure beats throwing scrap iron on the back of a truck."
Downside: Hobnob with the rich and fatuous. Dealing with Mother Nature, which has a nasty habit of frustrating even the most brilliant winemakers. Limited job opportunities. "It's a small profession," says Test. "I can't pick up my family and move to Dubuque. There just aren't that many positions."
How to Get There: Enology degree from the Department of Viticulture and Enology at the University of California at Davis, California State University at Fresno or a major wine school in Europe or Australia. "International working experience is helpful," says Ramey, "It's particularly useful to experience the classical methodology with the varietals you plan to work with. If you want to work with Sangiovese or Nebbiolo, for example, you should go to Italy." Hands-on experience in a variety of winery jobs, from vineyard laborer to cellar rat and lab analyst. Ramey's advice: "Find a good, solid assistant winemaker job and spend five or six years there before going off to make your own mistakes."
Next Step: General manager of a winery; develop your own brand.
Salary: Starting Out: $$. At the top $$$$.
Job Description: Advise growers and vintners on a wide range of issues, including property development, winery design, equipment purchases, permits and regulations, vineyard practices, marketing and personnel. Taste and evaluate wines in progress. "Timing is critical in this business," says Tony Soter, owner of Etude Wines in Napa and one of California's most sought-after consultants. "You have to know where to be when." Soter says the toughest part of his job is resisting the temptation to impose his personal style on his clients' wines. "My goal is that each winery should have its own distinct voice. My input should be subtle enough to allow the land to speak for itself." It also helps to have a "world view" of wine, he says. "You should have a grasp of the different styles of winemaking—not just the classical method in France and Italy, but also those in New Zealand and South Africa."
Perks: Travel. Being your own boss. "I enjoy being a teacher and mentor. It fits my personality," says Soter.
Downside: Consulting isn't a good career choice for winemakers hell-bent on expressing their own style.
How to Get There: A-to-Z knowledge of the wine industry. Extensive experience in the field, cellar and lab. Familiarity with different styles of winemaking. Degree from a major wine school.
Next Step: Start your own winery. Retire rich.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$$$.
Vineyard Manager
Job Description: Oversee day-to-day operations of the vineyards, including planting, irrigation, pruning, spraying, erosion and pest control, and harvesting. Prepare budgets and work schedules; hire and train field workers; ensure compliance with agricultural regulations; coordinate field operations with the winemaker, cellar master and marketing director.
Perks: Freedom to make your own schedule. Use of a 4x4 truck and cell phone. Travel to other vineyards.
Downside: Sore hands and "goofy hours," says Richmond. A vineyard manager's day often starts at 6 a.m. and doesn't end until late in the afternoon. During crush the hours are even longer. Dealing with the exasperating vagaries of Mother Nature is another challenge.
How to Get There: Degree in viticulture and enology or fermentation science from UC Davis, Fresno State or another major wine school. However, a fancy degree is no substitute for grunt work. "Everything I learned in college I can boil down to two minutes," says Richmond. "Most of what I know I learned in the fields."
Next Step: Independent consultant; winery owner.
Salary: Starting out: $$. At the top $$$.
Cellar Master
Job Description: Responsible for every facet of production from the time the grapes arrive at the winery to the time the bottled wine is shipped out. Work with the winemaker to create wines that reflect his taste and style. Hire, train and supervise cellar rats. Order equipment and supplies such as tanks, barrels, gases, bottles and crates.
Perks: Taste lots of wine. Lose weight without joining a gym: Gary Young, the burly, 200-pound cellar master at Rudd Winery in Oakville, says he routinely sheds 15 to 20 pounds during crush. But, he admits, "I put them back on over the holidays."
Downside: Long hours. At harvest time cellar masters routinely work 15-hour days, seven days a week, until the job is done. "I don't get to see my kids very much during the crush," says Young.
How to Get There: Start as a cellar rat and work your way up. Broad knowledge of how wine is made and how wineries operate. Degree in enology is helpful but not essential.
Next Step: Winemaker.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$.
Cellar Rat
Job Description: Do all the grunt work that transforms grapes into liquid gold: drain and shovel out the tanks; clean the tanks, presses, lines and other equipment; prep the barrels; stir and top the barrels, etc.
Perks: Learn how wine is made and taste the results. Look like a gym bunny without going to the gym.
Downside: Long hours and physically demanding work, especially during crush.
How to Get There: Have a passion for wine and a strong back.
Next Step: Cellar supervisor.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$.
Job Description: Craft the oak barrels that help to give wine its distinctive flavor. The cooper bends the staves into shape and slowly toasts them over an open fire.
Perks: For Douglas Rennie, a master cooper from Glasgow who works at Seguin Moreau in Napa, the best part of the job is working with his hands. "I get a lot of pleasure out of seeing the finished barrel," says Rennie, a fourth-generation cooper. "I like the sound of the wood being pounded, the smell of the oak toasting over the fire."
How to Get There: In Europe, apprenticeships typically begin while youngsters are still in school and last five years. In this country, there are no formal training programs, but Seguin Moreau, World Cooperage and other barrel makers provide on-the-job training.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top $$.
Perks: Taste great wines. Dine at top restaurants. Extensive foreign and domestic travel. Leonardo LoCascio, owner of Winebow, a New York-based importer of fine Italian wines, says he relishes the "human element" of his job. "I enjoy the process of representing producers and creating a market for their products in the United States," says LoCascio. "Many of my Italian suppliers have become lifelong friends."
Downside: Dealing with prima donna vintners. And maintaining a consistent portfolio of quality wines is "a constant puzzle," adds Harmon Skurnik, president of Michael Skurnik Wines, a New York-based importer. Long hours can also take a toll. Skurnik says, "If I didn't have to sleep, I could work 24 hours a day."
How to Get There: Work in retail sales or distribution. Study wine and how it relates to food. "It helps to know the habitat and the language of the country you are dealing with," says Locasio. A degree from a wine school or culinary institution is also helpful.
Next Step: Expand to other countries; start your own winery.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$$$.
Marketing Director
Job Description: Design and develop marketing materials, including brochures, press kits, newsletters, bottle labels and ads. Set prices and release dates. Determine in which markets and in what quantities to sell. Attend trade shows. Respond to customer inquiries and complaints. "My job is to create an image and develop the brand," says Marion Groetschel, marketing director for Fife Vineyards, in Napa Valley. "We make great wines and we want to be represented in the top restaurants and wine shops."
Perks: Travel. Attend wine events. Meet lots of interesting folks. Bonuses tied to sales.
Downside: Not enough hours in the day.
How to Get There: Business degree, ideally in marketing. "Better yet, an MBA from a top school," says Hill. A passion for wine and a top-to-bottom knowledge of the industry.
Next step: Work for a larger winery; general manager of a winery.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$$.
Job Description: The auctioneer helps set price estimates, writes the catalog and contacts potential bidders. During the auction itself, a good auctioneer is part salesman, part standup comic. He must command the audience's attention and keep the bidding moving. "You need a stage presence," says Fritz Hatton, a veteran wine auctioneer and former chief operating officer for Christie's in New York. Hatton tries to sprinkle in tidbits of information about the wines to pique bidders' interest. He says, "If an auctioneer can't pronounce the name of the wine, it certainly doesn't inspire confidence in the bidders." Other useful assets: a facility with numbers and a sense of fair play.
Perks: Travel. Tasting rare, collectible wines. Raising money for good causes.
Downside: Limited career opportunities. There are only about a half-dozen people in the country who specialize in wine auctioneering.
How to Get There: "There's no training programs for wine auctioneers per se," says Hatton. "We don't go to the hog-calling or tobacco-calling schools in the South." Christie's and other commercial auction houses provide training for their employees. Some states require auctioneers to be licensed.
Next step: Marketing and public relations; hog auctions in Oklahoma.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$. ("I know of no wealthy auctioneers," says
Job Description: Distributors are the middlemen between the wineries on one end and wine shops, grocery stores, restaurants and hotels on the other. Distributors purchase the wine from multiple producers, warehouse it and then ship it to the end-users.
Perks: Travel. Fine wining and dining.
Downside: Competition is fierce. In New York State, for example, there were more than 30 major distributors 20 years ago; now there are only a handful. Distributors also have to contend with a patchwork of different state liquor regulations.
How to Get There: "You must be well capitalized, be knowledgeable about wine and understand how to operate an efficient company," says LoCascio.
Next Step: Retire to a villa in Tuscany.
Salary: Starting out: $$. At the top: $$$$.
Sales Rep
Job Description: Call on restaurants, hotels, wine shops and other prospective customers and present samples from your portfolio. Place orders with distributors and wineries and deal with other administrative minutia. Follow up with customers. Meet with winemakers to find out what's new.
Teresa Ryder, a sales manager for Michael Skurnik Wines, a New York-based distributor, says that when she was a rep she typically made five to 12 sales calls a day. "I spent my days running around to exclusive restaurants in Manhattan—Gramercy Tavern, Union Square Café, Café Boulud—meeting with wine directors, sommeliers, and sometimes chef/
Perks: Fine food and drink. Occasional trips to California and Europe to visit vineyards and wineries. Receiving special treatment when you dine at restaurants that are also customers.
Downside: Long hours. Ryder says she routinely worked 70 hours a week when she was developing her territory in midtown Manhattan. Schlepping heavy boxes of wine around chic Manhattan is also no fun.
How to Get There: Be passionate about wine and food. "A lot of sales reps in the wine industry have a certain sensibility about the arts," says Ryder.
Next Step: Regional sales manager.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$$$.
Wine Bar/Restaurant Owner/Manager
Job Description: Craft and maintain the wine list. Hire and train staff in proper wine service. Meet with sales reps and sample new selections. Keep abreast of industry trends. "You have to love wine and be willing to spend money to buy great wines," says Charlie Trotter, the celebrated Chicago chef, restaurateur and cookbook author. "We don't have a formula. We just buy great wines to fill out our list and wines that go with our food."
Perks: Wonderful wine, wonderful food, (mostly) wonderful people. Occasional junkets to California, Europe and other wine-producing regions.
Downside: Long, late hours. Dealing with boorish customers.
How to Get There: Tasting widely, frequently and fearlessly. Solid training in restaurant management and wine service. "An MBA wouldn't hurt, either," says Antonakeas.
Next Step: Expand to other locations or cities. Open a full-service restaurant (Antonakeas is in the process of doing just that in New York).
Salary: Starting Out: $. At the top: $$$$. ("The first year you don't make any money; you just make sure everyone around you is well paid," says Antonakeas. "After that, you better make six figures.")
|Wine Director/Sommelier
Job Description: Crafting the restaurant's wine list, training staff in wine service, helping diners choose a wine and—equally important—making them feel comfortable with the wine they've selected. The sommelier also works with the chef to devise harmonious pairings of wine and food. Star sommeliers such as Larry Stone of Rubicon in San Francisco and Ralph Hersom of Le Cirque 2000 in New York also devote time to writing about wine (Stone pens a column for the Japanese edition of Playboy; Hersom is working on a book) and appearing at industry events.
Perks: Tasting some of the finest and rarest wines on the planet (Hersom once sold a bottle of '47 Château Pétrus for $12,000, and he routinely decants $1,000-plus bottles at Le Cirque) and chowing down on the culinary creations of some of the world's most talented chefs. Travel to Europe, Australia, South Africa and other wine-growing regions to visit vineyards, wineries, restaurants and resorts. Meeting celebrities. (Hersom was once summoned by Keith Richards to bring a bottle of '82 Château Lynch-Bages to the Rolling Stone's room at the New York Palace Hotel. And Mike D of the Beastie Boys is a regular at Le Cirque, where he indulges his passion for fine Burgundies.)
Downside: Long, arduous days (and nights). Sommeliers at top restaurants typically begin work before noon and often don't hang up their tastevins until well after midnight. "It's a lot of gritty work and long hours, but if you love wine and you love people it's a great job," says Stone. Being harassed by pompous pooh-bahs is another occupational hazard.
How to Get There: Taste. Taste. Taste. "You have to love wine and love people and be excited to find the perfect match of food and wine," says Stone, whose enological explorations began at age 16 when he made wine from apple concentrate in the laundry room of his parents' Seattle apartment building. Mike Bonaccorsi, head of beverage at Spago in Beverly Hills, recommends aspiring sommeliers form tasting groups with like-minded friends. Read everything about wine you can get your hands on. In terms of formal training, the Court of Master Sommeliers, formed in England in 1977, offers a three-part program leading to certification as a master sommelier. Only about 40 people hold the title in the United States.
Next Step: Buy an estate and start making your own (Bonaccorsi already has two vintages under his belt); consultant; educator.
Salary: Starting Out: $$. At the top $$$$. (Including commissions or a cut of the gross revenue from wine sales. )
Job Description: Depending on the publication you are working for, the job involves writing on myriad subjects, from profiles of prize-winning wineries and winemakers and explorations of noteworthy new releases and industry trends to advice on wine etiquette and wine angst. John Brecher and Dorothy J. Gaiter, authors of the weekly "Tastings" column in The Wall Street Journal, focus on the consumer end of the industry. "The industry has made wine a very scary thing, something with snob appeal," say Brecher. "We try to make it more accessible. You don't need a Ph.D. in wine to enjoy it."
Perks: Dining at fine restaurants. Attending glamorous, gluttonous wine events. And, of course, tasting wonderful wine. (Brecher and Gaiter conduct blind tastings in their kitchen nearly every night, pouring through several hundred dollars of the Journal's money each week.)
Downside: Attending glamorous, gluttonous wine events.
How to Get There: "Be genuinely passionate about wine," says Brecher. A well-developed palate and a flair for writing are also helpful. Brecher and Gaiter recommend aspiring writers read Wine Talk, a collection of columns by Frank J. Prial, the veteran wine writer for The New York Times and, naturally, their own book, The Wall Street Journal Guide to Wine.
Next step: Write a book; make your own.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$$.
Wine Shop Owner/Manager
Job Description: Create a comfortable, convivial atmosphere for customers. Hire, train and supervise staff. Build inventory to meet a wide range of tastes—from a connoisseur hunting for a rare $150 vintage to a neighborhood resident looking for a decent $8 bottle for dinner. Advise customers about what wines to pair with particular foods, and how much to buy. Keep abreast of new releases and industry trends.
Perks: "We see the dramas of people's lives," says Guelld. "We get street people playing the harmonica and people buyingwine for weddings, bar mitzvahs and funerals. It's like operating a little theater."
Downside: Long hours, short (as in impatient) customers.
How to Get There: Experience as a retail purchaser and/or manager. Be passionate and knowledgeable about wine. "It's important to know the association between wines and the regions they come from," says Guelld.
Next Step: Expand to additional locations. Open a restaurant or wine bar.
Salary: Starting out: $. At the top: $$.
Job Description: Wine educators generally fall into two categories: those who teach at professional training schools, and those who offer classes and seminars to amateur enthusiasts. Faculty members at the UC Davis Department of Viticulture and Enology—considered the Harvard of wine schools— spend only part of their time teaching the department's 150 full-time students. The rest of their time is devoted to research and troubleshooting for growers and vintners who run into problems. "Our job is to help people make great wine and to make sure California's wineries stay among the best in the world," says James Wolpert, chairman of the UC Davis department. Affairs of the Vine, a San Francisco-based company, runs "wine boot camps" around the country. "We demystify wine," says company president Barbara Drady. "You don't have to understand 'malolactic fermentation' to enjoy good wine."
Perks: Lots of good wine and food. Travel. Meeting interesting, successful people.
Downside: Faculty at UC Davis and Fresno State are often overwhelmed by requests for help because of the rapid growth of the industry in recent years. Some 400 new wineries have sprouted up in California in the past decade alone.
How to Get There: Be passionate about wine and teaching. Hands-on experience in vineyards, wine cellars and research labs. Degree from UC Davis, Fresno State or another distinguished wine school. Depending on your specialty, a degree in chemistry, horticulture, plant biology, ecology, plant pathology or etymology wouldn't hurt, either.
Next Step: Independent consultant.
Salary: Starting out: $$. At the top: $$$.

I've been married for 5 years and have two kids (1 and 3 years old).
I know my husband cares about the kids and I... But he is attached to the tv/his own world.
I work fulltime out of my home and have our 1 year old with me. He comes home for lunch and dinner... Somehow he can come home, turn on tv and read using ipad... While I take time away from work to make lunch; after work I have to go straight to make dinner. He will come home after work, turn on tv and ipad, occasionally play a few mins with the kids. He will eat dinner and walk awtay (no cleaning beyond his own bowl/plate). On the other hand my life is non-stop... Working while watch the kid, puting her down for AM and PM nap, making lunch, making dinner, putting her to sleep. My alone time doesn't even start until 8:30 if at all. He never do anything that make me feel "I know u've doing things for family all day so let me take care of the kids so u can relax."
Of course I voice my dislike often... The D word comes to my mind often... But I was like he really does care about us... Just that he grew up in a household where his mom did everything (even now when we visit) and the three kids just sit. I keep reminding him that his mom didn't have to keep a job whiling taking care of the family/house but I am doing both.
It's the lack of appreciation and recognition that's really killing me. the day to day struggle is killing me and the marriage.

I use several climate models of different complexity, from intermediate complexity to general circulation models for my work. Below is a short summary on a few topics.
For my studies on the large-scale ocean thermohaline circulation, I use the Bern 2.5D Climate Model. This model is designed to study the role of the thermohaline circulation in the Earth climate system of the past, present and future. My early work focussed on the stability and dynamics of the thermohaline circulation on timescales of more than several decades and on spatial scales of more than a thousand kilometers. The simple parameterization of processes results in a computationally efficient climate model suitable for long-term integrations (up to millions of years) and large numbers of simulations not feasible with more complex models. This allows us to focus in detail on the mechanisms and processes of natural climate variability and on the potential anthropogenic climate change.
The extreme efficiency of the zonally averaged climate model also allows to calculate ensemble simulations of several thousand members. This approach has recently been used to demonstrate a strategy of how probabilistic forecasts of climate change over the next century can be obtained. The idea is to run a model many times with different parameter combinations and then used observations to constrain the ensemble, i.e. give those model versions more weight that agree well with observations. Technically, these are Bayesian methods, and the result of this procedure is a probability density function of future warming given the observations of the past century.
Further details can be found in Knutti et al., Nature 2002 (PDF file: 0.2 MB), or in the related News&Views.
Although global mean temperature is a good overall indicator of the expected changes, people are more interested in regional climate projections, since those determine local impacts. We used output from twenty different coupled atmosphere ocean general circulation models and a Bayesian method to obtain regional probabilistic projections of future warming. Instead of calculating just a model mean, this allows for instance to quantify the warming that is likely to occur, i.e. the warming that will be exceeded with at 80% probability. Such models also allow to differentiate between summer and winter changes, and to quantify trends variability and extreme events.
Further details can be found in Furrer et al. GRL 2007 (PDF file).
Using the Ecbilt-CLIO climate model we also studied how the ocean connects the polar regions of Greenland and Antarctica during the abrupt climate events in the last ice age, about 50,000 years ago. For the first time, we proposed an improved 'bipolar seesaw' concept, the so-called 'thermal freshwater seesaw' that explains most of the timing and amplitude in the Greenland and Antarctic temperature proxies as well as sea level. The model also captures surprisingly many features of the spatial patterns of temperature and precipitation changes as reconstructed from proxy data. The figure below shows the surface temperature difference simulated by the model when the Atlantic thermohaline circulation switches from a collapsed state to an active state with deepwater formation in the North Atlantic. The associated increased northward heat transport of the ocean causes the North Atlantic to warm by 15 degrees C or more within several decades and the Southern Ocean to cool (the seesaw).

Causes and Transmission
Diphtheria is a infection caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae bacteria.
Diphtheria is spread (transmitted) from person to person, usually through respiratory droplets, from coughing or sneezing. Rarely, spreading may occur from skin lesions (like an abnormal sore) or clothes that are contaminated with discharges from lesions (like a sore) of an infected person.
A person also can get infected with diphtheria by coming in contact with an object, like a toy, that has been contaminated with the bacteria that cause diphtheria.

Two Marian Altarpieces by Parmigianino
Mary Vaccaro
Throughout his career Francesco Mazzola, better known as il Parmigianino, worked for female patrons, secular as well as religious, on projects large and small. He painted a room with mythological scenes for a local noblewoman, a baby crib for another Parmese lady, and an altarpiece for Bolognese nuns.1 Two of his best-known altarpieces were made for secular female patrons. Such a statement is hardly surprising, since sixteenth-century historical sources refer, albeit briefly, to these women. According to Giorgio Vasari, for example, Parmigianino made for a certain "madonna Maria Bufolina da Città di Castello" a painting that corresponds in description to the so-called Vision of Saint Jerome, now in the National Gallery in London (fig. 1).2 Vasari also indicates that Parmigianino later created for the "sorella del Cavalier Baiardo" the altarpiece known today as the Madonna of the Long Neck, now in the Uffizi in Florence (fig. 2). A document for the latter painting, published in the midnineteenth century, identifies the patron as the Parmese noblewoman Elena Baiardi.3
Despite the early mentions of these patrons, little effort has been made to consider them more fully. In this chapter I will focus on the two secular women for whom Parmigianino painted Marian altarpieces. Who were Maria Bufalini and Elena Baiardi, and what was the nature of their commissions? Related archival and biographical information should help elucidate our inquiry. Documents reveal that both Maria and Elena were decorating their husbands' funerary chapels. Each altarpiece should, therefore, serve as an index to uxorial duty— that is, a widow's commemoration of her deceased spouse. But to what extent is each painting an expression of the patron herself? I intend to look first at the specific circumstances of each project, and then I will attempt to discern any patterns that might potentially be significant for the study of secular female patronage in the Renaissance. In particular, both altarpieces invite questions about the relationship of widows to the Virgin Mary and Saint Jerome.
The so-called Vision of Saint Jerome is a large altarpiece painted by Parmigianino during his sojourn in Rome between 1524 and 1527. Vasari tells us that during the Sack of Rome in 1527, when imperial troops charged into Parmigianino's studio and found him at work on this painting, they were so impressed by its quality that they left the artist unharmed to continue his business. Even if this story is a topos derived from Pliny, Vasari's account remains important for the factual details it provides about the commission, for he also records that the painting was made for Maria Bufalini to be placed in a chapel in the Roman church of San Salvatore in Lauro.4
Two recently discovered documents—the contract for the painting and Maria's last testament—confirm and expand the information given by Vasari.5 In 1526 Maria Bufalini

Last week, the U.S. House, on a 265-148 bipartisan vote, rebuked President Obama for failing to seek congressional authorization for U.S. military operations in Libya. The Senate soon may take up a similar resolution. Both proposals would require the president, within a couple of weeks, to explain his decision to go to war.
It's about time. What little justification the White House so far has offered is sketchy and contradictory.
Mr. Obama and his NATO allies at first insisted that their air strikes, which began March 19, were not intended to dislodge Libyan President Moammar Gadhafi, rather, that the assaults were designed to protect civilians from slaughter by the regime and its mercenaries.
Yet Mr. Obama since has said Col. Gadhafi "must go." And recently the bombing campaign against the colonel's compound in Tripoli has been so intense as to leave little doubt the object is either to kill him or force him to flee.
President Obama originally promised he would follow the rules under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, which requires congressional approval within 60 days of the beginning of military action. He said he would consult closely with lawmakers.
He has done neither, and more than 80 days have passed. The White House even refused to let Pentagon officials testify at a congressional hearing on the Libya action.
And what does Robert Gates, the outgoing defense secretary, have to say? He contends the term "war" is inappropriate. He calls the Libya campaign a "limited kinetic action."
Supporters of the military effort say it's justified because Col. Gadhafi is a crumb and the United States should support democracy in Libya. But Libya's dictator gave up his support of terrorism and his weapons of mass destruction years ago. And we know little about the Libyan rebels.
Americans in general have supported the effort or have been quiet about their doubts. That's in large part because U.S. troops aren't dying there and because the United States has taken a back seat in the effort, letting Britain, France and NATO take the lead.
Even so, the U.S. effort could end up costing more than $1 billion. And it has broad long-term implications. What if Col. Gadhafi is ousted and replaced by radical Islamists? What are America's responsibilities to rebuild Libya or to help midwife its democracy?
Some say the War Powers Resolution is unconstitutional. But it's the law of the land until overturned by the Supreme Court. And, although the president is our military commander in chief, the Constitution clearly empowers Congress to declare war.
Col. Gadhafi posed no imminent threat to U.S. national security. It's not clear he even presented any threat at all. And Mr. Obama's failure to work with Congress on the Libya issue sets a dangerous precedent. If it stands, what's to prevent a future president from, say, ordering air strikes against a far stronger Iran without consulting with Congress?
Lawmakers are right to demand that the Obama administration explain its policy on Iran fully to Congress and the public. The failure to do so could come back to haunt the United States in the not-too-distant future.

I shoot what I do because I like the look of the film.

Didn't Janeway originally want to leave the hub alone until she was handed defensive technology that let Voyager handle Borg attacks, and a torpedo that could kill a Cube in one shot? Why would she ever consider the Federation to be vulnerable to the Borg if she had those?
