Harry Connick, Jr. Digs Deep For His Most Personal Songs On Every Man Should Know
NEW YORK, April 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Harry Connick, Jr. has built a reputation for musical and emotional honesty. Never one to rest on his ever-growing list of laurels, Connick exposes his feelings as never before on Every Man Should Know. The new CD to be released on Columbia Records on June 11, contains twelve original songs for which Connick wrote music, lyrics and arrangements. "No rules, no limits," is how the multi-talented artist describes the songs in his liner notes for the new collection. "I don't recall ever reaching quite as deeply – or confidently – into my inhibition pool."When asked about the transformation, Connick explains that "I used to be more comfortable writing in a fantasy-style concept, using ideas that intrigued me but didn't necessarily come from personal experience. It's one thing to assume the role of a storyteller – it's quite another when the story is your own. I felt ready to explore some of my personal experiences in some of the songs this time around." The title track is indicative of how anecdote and imagination yield inspired results. "I was building a workbench with a carpenter friend," Connick explains, "and my lack of any knowledge about carpentry left me feeling so inadequate. It led me to think about other things that every man should know, like how to change a tire. Then I began thinking about what everybody should know how to do, and that's to love." "'Come See About Me' is a song about a guy who's heartbroken that was inspired by a line Kim Burrell sang on 'All These People' [a song about the abandoned Katrina victims from Connick's 2007 CD Oh, My NOLA]. It was tough for me to sing, because the thought of watching the one you love move on is so painful. Just the idea of it hurts, and it took me a few tries just to figure out how to sing it." More immediately personal feelings underscore "The Greatest Love Story," a song for Connick's wife Jill that includes both "inside" allusions ("Jill's from Texas, which is why the pedal steel guitar is in there") and a direct reference to Connick's late mother Anita. "Before, I would never talk about my mother, much less write about her," he admits. "It took years and years, and this might be my first specific lyric reference to her in a song. Her life and her death were so significant to me, and over time they've gained layers. I actually cried the first time I sang the lyrics in the studio." Connick is quick to credit his collaborators, including guest soloists Branford Marsalis (whose soprano sax enriches "Let Me Stay") and Wynton Marsalis (extending the reflective mood of "Being Alone" with his trumpet) and longtime Band regulars Jerry Weldon on tenor sax and old friend Jonathan DuBose, Jr. on guitar on "I Love Her." He gives special credit to guitarist Brian Sutton and the Nashville musicians assembled for several tracks. "Those Nashville guys are deep," Connick marvels. "Before they play a note, they ask, `What are we playing about?' And they like to play with you when you sing rather than laying down tracks before you sing, because they want to understand the sentiment of each song. They really helped me capture 'Love My Life Away,' a song about a guy dying from a disease who is facing the plodding nature of his life." A common feature of every track, from the jazz feel of "One Fine Thing" to the country feel of "Time to Go," is the perfect fit of each Connick arrangement. "You have to know what's right for each tune," he explains, "I've learned to trust my instincts. I usually start with the lyrics, which suggest a melody, which suggests a groove – at which point the arrangement becomes fairly clear."

WASHINGTON (AP) — Agonizingly close to a New Year's Eve compromise, the White House and congressional Republicans agreed Monday to block across-the-board tax increases set for midnight, but held up a final deal as they haggled away the final hours of 2012 in a dispute over spending cuts.
"It appears that an agreement to prevent this New Year's tax hike is within sight," President Barack Obama said in an early-afternoon status report on negotiations. "But it's not done," he added of legislation that redeems his campaign pledge to raise taxes on the wealthy while sparing the middle class.
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell — shepherding final talks with Vice President Joe Biden — agreed with Obama that an overall deal was near. In remarks on the Senate floor, he suggested Congress move quickly to pass tax legislation and "continue to work on finding smarter ways to cut spending" next year.
The White House and Democrats initially declined the offer, preferring to prevent the cuts from kicking in at the Pentagon and domestic agencies alike. Officials said they might yet reconsider, although there was also talk of a short-term delay in the reductions.
While the deadline to prevent tax increases and spending cuts was technically midnight, passage of legislation by the time a new Congress takes office at noon on Jan. 3, 2013 — the likely timetable — would eliminate or minimize any inconvenience for taxpayers.
The scene at both ends of historic Pennsylvania Avenue was remarkable, even for a government grown accustomed to gridlock. As darkness fell on the last day of the year, Obama, Biden and their aides were at work in the White House, while the lights burned in the House and Senate.
For now, more than the embarrassment of a gridlocked Congress working through New Year's Eve in the Capitol was at stake.
Economists in and out of government have warned that a combination of tax hikes and spending cuts could trigger a new recession, and the White House and Congress have spent the seven seeks since the Nov. 6 elections struggling for a compromise to protect the economy.
Even now, with time running out, partisan agendas were evident.
Obama used his appearance to chastise Congress, and to lay down a marker for the next round of negotiations early in 2013 when Republicans intend to seek spending cuts in exchange for letting the Treasury to borrow above the current debt limit of $16.4 trillion.
"Now, if Republicans think that I will finish the job of deficit reduction through spending cuts alone — and you hear that sometimes coming from them … then they've got another think coming. … That's not how it's going to work at least as long as I'm president," he said.
"And I'm going to be president for the next four years, I think," he added.
Officials in both parties said agreement had been reached to prevent tax increases on most Americans, while letting rates rise on individual income over $400,000 and household earnings over $450,000 to a maximum of 39.6 percent from the current 35 percent. That marked a victory for Obama, who campaigned successfully for re-election on a platform of requiring the wealthy to pay more.
Any agreement would also raise taxes on the value of estates exceeding $5 million to 40 percent, as well as extend expiring jobless benefits for two million unemployed, prevent a 27 percent cut in fees for doctors who treat Medicare patients and likely avoid a near-doubling of milk prices.
Much or all of the revenue to be raised through higher taxes on the wealthy would help hold down the amount paid to the Internal Revenue Service by the middle class.
In addition to preventing higher rates for most, any agreement would retain existing breaks for families with children, for low-earning taxpayers and for those with a child in college.
In addition, the two sides agreed to prevent the Alternative Minimum Tax from expanding to affect an estimated 28 million households for the first time in 2013, with an average increase of more than $3,000. The law was originally designed to make sure millionaires did not escape taxes, but inflation has gradually exposed more and more households with lower earnings to its impact.
The National Park Service has said the fire was likely human caused, but that remains under investigation.

A committee working to improve parking in downtown Columbus wants to simplify the rules.
The city's Downtown Parking Committee members are rewriting the city's parking ordinance, which they say is confusing. Rewriting the ordinance would help in parking enforcement and reduce rule duplications, committee members said.
One concern is that Columbus' parking ordinance is 45 pages long, committee member and City Council President Dascal Bunch said.
Much of the ordinance is repetitive and out of date, said Elaine DeClue, another committee member and owner of downtown restaurant Tre Bicchieri.
"There's some places that have unloading zones, and those zones aren't there anymore," she said. "There were fines for the same thing but two different prices. It looks like maybe they added on something but didn't correct the old information."
Once a revised parking ordinance is in place, the committee will consider recommending that the city purchase two handheld devices that can scan license plates and monitor how long cars have been parked in a space, Bunch said.
City Attorney Jeff Logston said he would have a new draft of the ordinance prepared for the committee's next meeting June 25.
If the committee approves the draft, a new city parking ordinance could go before the Columbus City Council by July 1.
Finding spaces
The committee is made up of city officials and downtown business representatives who volunteered or were appointed by Mayor Kristen Brown.
Committee members are trying to determine how to reconfigure downtown parking options so that businesses in the city's core have spaces for customers and employees working downtown have a place to park, too.
An $85,000 city-funded study from the Nelson/Nygaard consulting firm of Boston determined there are enough downtown parking spaces. The consultants said most sought-after parking spots are filled with downtown business employees and the remaining available parking isn't being used efficiently or consistently.
The Nelson/Nygaard study recommended installing paid parking, or parking meters, in the downtown area to increase parking space availability for downtown customers. But Brown asked for an alternative without the paid parking, because she is not in favor of the meters.
The mayor created the committee to look through the recommendations and find areas where downtown parking could be improved without meters, working with various city departments on signs, enforcement options and evaluating on-street and off-street parking options.
The city's downtown parking enforcement officer is Sharon Stark, who now monitors vehicles by writing license plate numbers and times on a legal pad to determine if motorists exceed the three-hour daily parking limit.
The city's parking ordinance would be stored on the handheld devices; and if a violation has occurred, a parking enforcement officer will be able to print off tickets on the spot. Bunch said both devices would cost less than $20,000. The earliest those devices would be purchased and in Stark's hands would be the beginning of August, Bunch said.
The parking committee is considering whether more parking monitors are needed, but Bunch called those conversations preliminary.
Larger issues remain
Committee member Tom Dell, who headed a committee that worked with Nelson/Nygaard on the parking study, said the committee is working through the easier issues of new parking enforcement technology and fine-tuning the ordinances, steps that can be accomplished quickly.
The enforcement and ordinance changes will help parking efficiency, he said, but it doesn't really change the existing parking problem.
"These can pacify some people by saying, 'Well, we did some of the things the consultants wanted us to do,' but it doesn't really gain use, what we really need in the core area," he said. "(It doesn't) give us the availability we want."
Dell said the recommendation for parking meters could essentially be stonewalled forever, and any move toward paid parking would have to come from the City Council and the Columbus Redevelopment Commission.
"If you put paid parking in and didn't do anything else, you could gain availability instantaneously," he said.

ATLANTA (AP) Rookie Yunel Escobar hit a run-scoring single in the 10th inning Sunday, giving the Atlanta Braves a 6-5 win over the Colorado Rockies.
The liner to left easily scored Jeff Francoeur, who had doubled into the left field corner off Taylor Buchholz (5-4), giving the Braves their fifth win in seven games. Atlanta took two of three from Colorado.
Chipper Jones went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer, his 18th of the season. Oscar Villarreal (2-1), the Braves' sixth pitcher, earned the win with a scoreless tenth.
Rockies reserve outfielder Ryan Spilborghs hit solo home runs in the second and fifth innings, his eighth and ninth of the year, off Braves starter Chuck James. Spilborghs came into the season with four career homers in 171 at-bats. He has nine homers in 133 at-bats this year.
The Rockies had tied it at 5 in the seventh off reliever Octavio Dotel on Todd Helton's two-out flair to left, just past shortstop Escobar's glove. The single scored Jamey Carroll, who had tripled.
The Braves went ahead 5-4 in the sixth on a bloop RBI double to right off Jeremy Affeldt by Willie Harris, scoring Corky Miller. Miller had driven in the tying run with a double to left earlier in the inning, knocking out Colorado starter Aaron Cook.
Cook went 5 2-3 innings and allowed five runs three earned and 10 hits without a walk. He struck out one.
The Rockies had gone ahead 4-3 in the sixth on a run-scoring single by Helton off James and an RBI double by Garrett Atkins off Tyler Yates.
James went five innings and left in the sixth after a leadoff walk to Carroll and singles by Holliday and Helton, bringing in Yates.
James allowed four runs and six hits. He walked three and struck out two.
The Braves' first run came on an RBI single by Escobar, scoring Jones in the fourth. They added two unearned runs in the fifth inning on Jones' two-out home run. It followed a two-out error by Carroll at second.< ^Notes: It was the second time Spilborghs hit two home runs in a game. He also did it on June 10 at Baltimore. ... Atlanta RF Francoeur threw out Troy Tulowitzki trying to score from second on a single by Willy Taveras in the fifth. It was Francoeur's National League-leading 15th assist. ... Colorado 3B Garrett Atkins' RBI double in the sixth gave him eight RBIs in the three-game set. He hit his fifth career grand slam and his second this season on Saturday night. He had a three-run homer on Friday night and has 14 RBI in his last six games. ... Atlanta's CF Andruw Jones missed his second straight start due to a sore left shoulder. He got a cortisone shot in the shoulder Friday night and is expected to start Tuesday night against the New York Mets after an off day on Monday. ... The Braves are 4-7 in extra innings.

Uncoordinated movement is due to a muscle control problem that causes an inability to coordinate movements. It leads to a jerky, unsteady, to-and-fro motion of the middle of the body (trunk) and an unsteady gait (walking style). It can also affect the limbs.
The medical name of this condition is ataxia.
Lack of coordination; Loss of coordination; Coordination impairment; Ataxia; Clumsiness; Uncoordinated movement
Smooth graceful movement requires a balance between different muscle groups. A part of the brain called the cerebellum manages this balance.
Diseases that damage the cerebellum, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves can interfere with normal muscle movement. The result is large, jerky, uncoordinated movements.
Brain injuries or diseases that can cause uncoordinated movements include:
Poisoning or toxic effects caused by:
Other causes include:
A home safety evaluation by a physical therapist may be helpful.
Take steps to make it easier and safer to move around at home. For example, get rid of clutter, leave wide walkways, and remove throw rugs or other objects that might cause slipping or falling.
People with this condition should be encouraged to take part in normal activities. Family members need to be patient with a person who has poor coordination. Take time to show the person ways to do tasks more easily. Take advantage of the person's strengths while avoiding his or her weaknesses.
Ask the health care provider whether walking aids, such as a cane or walker, would be helpful.
Call your health care provider if:
In an emergency, the patient will first be stabilized so that symptoms do not get worse.
The health care provider will perform a physical exam, which may include:
Medical history questions may include:
Tests that may be ordered include:
You may need to be referred to a specialist for diagnosis and treatment. If a specific problem is causing the ataxia, the problem will be treated. For example, if a medicine is causing coordination problems, the medicine may be changed or stopped. Other causes may not be treatable. The health care provider can tell you more.

For centuries, Newfoundland fisheries were hailed as the greatest in the world. Then, in 1992, their main export, the codfish, disappeared.
In the years since, tens of thousands of Newfoundlanders have left the island and entire communities have vanished. The toll has not just been economic: fishing was at the heart of the oldest non-indigenous culture in the Americas. Now the islanders must find a way to keep that culture from going the way of the cod.

Collectors Universe Inc. Stock Downgraded (CLCT)
TheStreet) -- Collectors Universe (Nasdaq: CLCT) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including weak operating cash flow, a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself and deteriorating net income.Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency).

- CLCT has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. To add to this, CLCT has a quick ratio of 2.14, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. When compared to other companies in the Diversified Consumer Services industry and the overall market, COLLECTORS UNIVERSE INC's return on equity exceeds that of the industry average and significantly exceeds that of the S&P 500.
- Regardless of the drop in revenue, the company managed to outperform against the industry average of 18.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 16.4%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- Despite any intermediate fluctuations, we have only bad news to report on this stock's performance over the last year: it has tumbled by 26.90%, worse than the S&P 500's performance. Consistent with the plunge in the stock price, the company's earnings per share are down 50.00% compared to the year-earlier quarter. Turning toward the future, the fact that the stock has come down in price over the past year should not necessarily be interpreted as a negative; it could be one of the factors that may help make the stock attractive down the road. Right now, however, we believe that it is too soon to buy.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to $0.72 million or 72.09% when compared to the same quarter last year. In conjunction, when comparing current results to the industry average, COLLECTORS UNIVERSE INC has marginally lower results.

Lincoln student dives in to help
Wednesday, July 17, 2013
A Jefferson City resident says he was simply doing what he thought would come naturally to most people when he helped save people from drowning in rip currents in South Carolina earlier this month.
Danny Eveler, 20, is a student at Lincoln University and was playing in a collegiate summer baseball league.
"We got rained out, but the weather got better so we could go to the beach," Eveler said. "We were having a good time when somebody said 'Call 911' and we did."
In an instant, the tranquil scene turned chaotic, as vacationers playing in the surf were caught in a rip current — a channel of water that moves from the shore out to sea, often faster than any human can swim.
"We saw a lady had been pulled out and was unconscious and heard others may be out there," Eveler said. "We saw one guy that others were trying to get in so we helped. One of my buddies said 'Are we going out there?' and I said, 'Well, yeah, obviously.'"
Danny started to pull in a man who had gone in to try and help, later identified as a judge, but handed him off to his buddies, Garrett McKenzie from Oklahoma and Matt Swartz from Texas, while Danny went back and rescued the judge's son.
"Me and Matt swam out there and found a young boy," Eveler said. "The man was unconscious in the water and we got a boogie board and took the man in. Meanwhile the boy jumps on my shoulders because he couldn't swim anymore. So Garrett and Matt took the man, and I took the kid."
Two days before they left, Danny had to help another man get out of the water who had been taken in by a rip current, and the man survived.
South Carolina officials are looking at whether lifeguards or warning flags are needed in the area.
"I was shocked they didn't have the flag system," Eveler said. "My family has vacationed in Florida and they had the flag system that would tell you what was going on. I thought it was strange this place didn't have them. It was like 'swim at your own risk.'"
Danny said he wasn't looking for any pats on the back, he just did what we though had to be done.
"Wouldn't you hope somebody would help you if you were drowning?" Eveler said. "I didn't think twice, honestly."

US agency still flying migrant families to Arizona
Arizona Governor Jan Brewer's office is now confirming there's no stop in sight for the surge of Central American immigrants being shipped to Arizona.
Homeland Security started flying immigrants here last month.
According to the Andrew Wilder, a spokesperson for Brewer, reports that the flow of immigrants into Arizona were ceasing are untrue.
Wilder says the Governor's Office had its first contact with federal immigration officials Friday since the drop-offs started.
The Governor was informed nearly 1,200 more undocumented immigrants were expected to be transported to Arizona over the weekend.
Most unaccompanied minors will be taken to a detention facility in Nogales for vaccinations and health screenings.
Wilder said from there, the children will be taken to military bases where they will be held for up to four months, but there are no definite plans after that time period.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials told ABC15 some undocumented immigrants are being allowed to reunite with their families, as long as they have someone who will take them in and it's near an ICE office where they can be processed.
"Everyone is dreaming it's a better life here," said Carlos Bonilla as he waited hours at the Greyhound Bus Station for his sister Daisy Castillo.
Castillo arrived just after noon on Friday, smiling as she hugged her brother.
"It was a calm trip, but since I didn't know where I was going, I was nervous. But thank God, I'm here," said Castillo of her journey to cross the border illegally.
Speaking only Spanish, Castillo told ABC15 she fled El Salvador with her 10-year-old son. She was afraid to make the trip into the unknown, but even more frightened to stay in El Salvador with her son.
"It's so dangerous in parts -- very difficult. They kill people like it's nothing," Castillo described.
Castillo said when she crossed the Rio Grande from Mexico into the United States, Border Patrol agents were waiting to arrest her.
She didn't know where the agents would take her, but coming here was worth a try for a new life.
"Some are coming because of the violence, others because of the poverty. The people think if they come here, they'll have an easier life, but it's hard," explained Bonilla.
Castillo knows she now faces deportation, but says she is confident she may get to stay.
"I will have to find a job to make a future for my son. More than anything it's a better future," said Castillo.
Castillo is scheduled to be in court July 8 to plead her case. She is hoping to stay in Arizona.
Meanwhile Governor Brewer continues to blast the federal government for what she calls a "humanitarian crisis."
"Not only does the federal government have no plan to stop this disgraceful policy, it also has no plan to deal with the endless waves of illegal aliens once they are released here. If the Obama administration put half the effort into securing our border as it has invested to institute this operation, our state and nation would not be facing this situation," Brewer said in a statement.

Leon County Commissioners stress that economic stimulus is their top priority for the year.
Tuesday night the Commissioners quickly and unanimously ratified the priorities they hashed out Monday at their annual retreat.
After discussing twenty different issues, economic development grabbed the top spot on the priority list... followed by climate change and sustainability, revenue diversification, southern strategy and Wakulla Springs Protection.
Commissioners say they're trying to fast-track a few infrastructure and building projects to drum up jobs for the area.

Joey Ryan posted the following photo on his Instagram account:
PWInsider.com reported several months ago that Mack was signing with the company but chose to rescind the report after WWE sources indicated he had not yet taken the medical testing needed that would allow him to sign. Mack finally went through the testing last week, PWInsider has confirmed.
Orignally trained by Ryan and Aaron Aguilera, among others, Mack has been a regular for CWH and PWG for years and is an incredibly athletic, charismatic performer. CWH booked him to win their Red Carpet Rumble earlier this year as something of a tribute and sendoff for him for all his hard work for the promotion.

They could not get placement if i say will be wrong my friend, the last 10 students of this batch were in real problem, now that two of them remained, they say they opted out, only 1 of them from that batch opted out. both the students who opted out are my friends.
let me not dig deep into this, felt bad when they wrote "opted out" in the report so posted. would not like to discuss anything further, as i am not qualified to do so. I have disclosed the truth and i do not hold any grudge against the institute. Any mistake in the views expressed here are inadvertent and do not intend to demean any person or institute.
sahi mein
hey would you prefer NMIMS or IIT R given a choice??
Do we have any FB group for IIT-R?
IIT-KGP(VGSOM) results are going to be out on 20th April.(I am saying it based on the posts in FB group for VGSOM. It seems some of the panel members told the students regarding the dates for the result.)
So can we expect results for IIT-R and IIT-K to be out before 25th April?

Former President Bill Clinton was in Marion Sunday, taking on critics of his wife's support of a federal gas tax holiday this summer.
Clinton says Barack Obama and other critics of Hillary Rodham Clinton's energy policy don't have to choose every day between buying health care and buying gas.
He says no one can convince him that the relief wouldn't help a lot of people.
Both Hillary Rodham Clinton and Republican Sen. John McCain have both proposed suspending the levy from Memorial Day to Labor Day as a way of providing relief from record gasoline prices for consumers.
Obama opposes the plan, saying it would save a mere 30 cents a day and cost thousands of construction jobs.
Bill Clinton also planned stops today in Morganton, Lenoir, Newton, Kernersville and Reidsville.

Forget trying to attract Olympics
Letters to the editor for April 2, 2014: Olympics try for San Diego; Dumanis campaign; vaccinations; S.D. Opera; senators in trouble; STEM; Filner pension; genome research
Drop the idea of hosting Olympics
Regarding "Scaled back plans set for centennial party" (March 29), now that we've admitted that we've totally flubbed the Panama-California Exposition centennial, the city should abandon all efforts to get the Olympics.
There is no way anyone will give us the responsibility of handling something as enormous and important as the Olympics. So let's disband the San Diego 2024 Olympic Exploratory Committee and stop spending money on this foolish notion. We should not pay for (another!) committee that will accomplish nothing.

Dumanis campaign move 'abhorrent'
Bonnie Dumanis as an officer of the court and as our district attorney should be ashamed of her campaign attempting to paint Bob Brewer in a negative light for defending the criminally accused; and maybe, just maybe Jennifer Tierney her campaign manager needs the Constitution (especially the part called the Sixth Amendment.) before she berates a lawyer for upholding one of the most sacred rights in our Constitution.
It is too often forgotten that men have died for the preservation of this right (among others), which makes the insinuation by Dumanis' campaign all the more abhorrent. If Bob Brewer made millions defending the accused he did so while assuring the rights guaranteed to us all by our Constitution.
John Adams, on his defense of British soldiers on trial for murder for the Boston Massacre of 1770 once said "... counsel ought to be the very last thing that an accused person should lack in a free country." Is the Dumanis campaign trying to tell us that certain people should not be defended by Brewer or any attorney for that matter with their statement? It is this type of mentality, held by those in power, that our Constitution was written to protect us from.
So no, Brewer should not return the campaign donation as it was lawfully made by someone who has the right to make a contribution.

Victims first, then political candidate
A letter written March 31 criticizes the re-election campaign of District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis for pointing out the acceptance by her opponent of a contribution from a felon, whom the opponent had represented. What the letter writer fails to mention is the victims of the massive fraud in which the felon was involved are still owed thousands in restitution. That was the salient point of the U-T article, "$700 given to Dumanis opponent questioned" (March 18).
When, and if, those victims are repaid, then the thief can legitimately use her generosity in supporting her candidate.

Vaccine exemptions must be limited
Regarding "Anti-vaccine movement takes harsh toll" (Editorial, March 31), recent research reports indicate that autism is caused by abnormal brain development during pregnancy. Hopefully, this research will lead to practical means to prevent and treat autism.
This evidence should also discredit the anti-vaccine movement. It clearly demonstrates that vaccination cannot cause autism. The public health benefits are so compelling, that vaccine exemptions need to be severely restricted. Even religious belief exemptions should be eliminated, because too many parents claim these out of fearful ignorance.
Leaving children vulnerable to these preventable diseases is arguably child abuse, and it should not be justified by any personal beliefs, religious or otherwise.

Hunt for alternatives to keep opera
As a season-ticket holder of the San Diego Opera since 1975, member of the Verdi Festival Committee in 1983 when Ian Campbell arrived to be the director, and former chair of the La Jolla Chapter of the Opera Guild, I was astounded to hear of the opera's closing.

Mason Researcher Develops New Tool to Locate Hackers Online
By Colleen Kearney Rich
If your computer is acting strangely or locks you out, don't be surprised if it isn't just a virus. It could be an Internet bot.
Bots, as they are most often called, are one type of stealthy malware that runs tasks inside a computer network and are controlled by someone, the botmaster, remotely. The use of these bots is widespread and a huge security problem for network administrators and users alike. In a six-month period in 2010, Microsoft reported that it cleaned more than 6.5 million bot-infected computers worldwide.
"These bots can be very complicated and very powerful," says Mason computer scientist Xinyuan (Frank) Wang. "They have many built-in self-protections and can compromise other machines."
Wang's latest patented invention, Live BotmasterTraceback, is designed to hunt down these botmasters by embedding a watermark, much like you would place on a photo, into the Internet traffic.
"Eventually, it will trace back to the botmaster and help identify his location," says Wang, who shares the patent with his former graduate student Daniel Ramsbrock, who graduated in 2008 with a master's degree in computer security and assurance.
The problem with botmasters is that they are working hard to conceal their identity and location. Fortunately, they must communicate with their bots to get the information they want.
"He or she could tell the bot to record keystrokes for passwords or compromise other nodes around it," says Wang. "They can open the back door and control your computer without your knowledge."
When the botmaster comes online to send commands to the bots, he or she usually needs to get the results back. If the response traffic is watermarked, the watermark will go all the way back to the botmaster. This technology works on a network level and would be of interest to Internet service providers and law enforcement, as well as others maintaining large computer networks. In the past, Wang developed methods for tracing attacks across stepping stones—a type of computer security—and making networks anonymous. He was the first to demonstrate that it is feasible to track anonymous, peer-to-peer voice over Internet protocol calls.
This is the fifth patent Wang's work has received since he joined Mason eight years ago. One of the university's more prolific inventors, he has six more in the patent pipeline.
"People are concerned about their privacy, and computer security is a real problem," he says. "We don't claim we've solved the problem, but this is a very good first step."

I didn't have RAC cover, so bought a battery charger (from Amazon, arrived next day). I put it on charge for 4 hours, and everything was OK.
But if you have RAC cover, best to make use of what you've paid for. The problem could be something else. New batteries can be expensive, around £60+.
I have a battery charger which has done sterling service over the years on my succession of old bangers. This car has never needed its services but we shall see, after the RAC person has been!
I have just bought full breakdown cover-including home start and European breakdown for less than £60-a lot cheaper than RAC/AA-it is one of those pay and claim covers-never had to use it but peace of mind-like home insurance
I did say Glyn-smug smiley-this could just be the tail end of real winter weather
Flo, my mum's favourite topics were sex, politics and religion! My sister, mum and I had many an interesting conversation leaning against the Aga in the kitchen when we were young. But you meant not at work.
Bunny, don't go for a watermill in France! Our first French house was a watermill, damp and cold and the garden flooded. Then there was a drought, not enough rain for four years and the river went smelly. Our shoes used to grow grey fur (mould) Bought it because it was very pretty, but it was totally impractical with 4 children. Also it was very cheap, £ was high against franc and French house prices incredibly cheap compared with English nearly 30 years ago.
We bought breakdown cover for everything including caravan about 3 weeks ago - just before weather turned nasty. Thought it might be a good idea It's caravan Club Mayday , but Green flag really. Used them before with old car
On one occasion we arrived in style at a site in Somerset with car on breakdown truck and caravan being towed behind. Talk about making an entrance
Morning all (not often I say that on here) . Just popped in as I had to order a new carpet sweeper for mother.
Hope all poorly folk are feeling a bit better today and that all goes well today for Dean's OH. Get well wishes to Flo's car too!
Cold and wet here today Might make stew and dumplings for Ash Wednesday
RAC summoned, should be hour to hour and a half.
Lizzie, I don't know that my mum would ever mention the word 'sex' except in the way that Miranda (Hart) says it in a trying-not-to-pronounce-it sort of way!
Just grey here at the moment but possible snow later according to one forecast. Then its going to get warmer overnight which is unusual - and then it will rain (of course).
Went to the cinema last night with my v. good friend, but we avoided Les Mis, neither of us wanting to risk opening floodgates that might not be able to close again! So we saw 'I Give It A Year', some bits of which were laugh out loud funny, and some bits were cringeworthy. But it lifted our spirits which was the point of the exercise.
I'm planning tomorrow night's Cubs meeting at the moment - I did a trial run of the sweets to make sure we had enough time to make them - well that was my excuse! And have a good list now of famous lovers, so thanks for all your suggestions
I can remember, when I was about 18 sitting on a kitchen cupboard trying to talk to my mother about contraception and getting nowhere. At an age when I really needed her advice. When my sons left for uni I gave them some packets of condoms
The only advice my mother gave me was that have the table laid for tea so that when husband came home from work he would think dinner was on its way - even if it wasn't even started.
Hi Lottie - laughter is the best medicine . Save Les Mis until things are better.
Flo - that sounds like my mother. She's like Les Dawson's Ada & Cissie - all mouthing and pointing to body parts e.g. "down below"! She still does it to me now
I keep saying it will get worse then it will get a lot better-get those shorts out for the end of the week
Cissie and Ada
I did find it didn't really work -setting the table - especially when there were 3 ravenous youngsters around.
gave up on talking about the body to her. Just once when I was having a lot of problems her advice was well you're a woman you just have to put up with it, I didn't and ended up as Dean would say having a hysterectomy, probably saved my life as it turned out.
My mum was great when I was a teenager, she explained a lot about boys (but I had 4 brothers), contraception (she was a Catholic, but didn't hold with their views on that), relationships etc. She always voted socialist and said "don't tell your dad!". I was proud of her because she had character and was very kind and caring. After she died last year people told me how she'd helped them when they had problems. And another secret came out that she'd worked at Bletchley Park decoding in the war.
Gosh Lizzie so many who worked there kept it quiet. So many stoires to tell that will never be known
I had an aunt who was a family 'secret'. She nursed Rudolph Hess when he was first in Btitain and used to go walking with him. I doubt her children know that.

Look Hot In Our Top Shaper for Summer Styles
Summertime is an exciting season for fashion and romance. It means lots of straps, lots of skin and light and flirty fabrics. And when you're going out in the hot weather, you don't want to be wearing much bulk or sweating through heavy materials. Shapewear is an essential part of looking hot in summer styles!
Got a big date coming up? Look even more amazing in our top pick for summer: the High Waisted Panty by Amia! You can incorporate this versatile shaper into all of your warm weather outfits so you will always look slim and smooth in this summer's top trends. Here are a few ways you can look your best on date night (or every day):
Short shorts are sexy and draw attention to long legs and a nice bottom. The high waisted panty provides a firm lift for your rear, so there's never a worry about how your backside looks in your cutoffs. It provides control for your midsection too, so you don't have to worry about muffin top either!
Midi Skirts
Enjoy this sophisticated look that highlights your waistline and makes your legs look longer. Your midi skirt will fit smoothly like a glove over the panty shaper.
Matching Suits
For your lightweight business attire, the panty shaper will create a perfectly shaped midsection and rear. Fitted pants and skirts will fit smoothly and comfortably, so you'll look professional and chic.
Who doesn't love a summery sundress? You'll feel confident in flowing fabrics because your figure will be a smooth hourglass underneath. The panty shaper is also practical for more formal gowns and dresses, as it holds your midsection in its ideal slim shape.

IT doesn't so much go round in circles as overlapping rings - think the Olympic sign. That's to say, it does repeat itself but with additions and a slightly changed working environment each time.
So, for the past few decades we've had good old Helpdesk, Trouble-Ticketing and related applications in every half-decent sized network across the globe; incredibly conservative, does what it says on the tin applications, typically created by incredibly conservative, does what it says on the tin ISVs. Nowt wrong with that, but nothing to get excited about either.
However, in a chat last week with the guys from Autotask at a gig in Barca - these guys have been around for over a decade, building business steadily... until recently, that is, since when they've been expanding faster than the average Brit's waistline (and that's some expansion rate!).
So why? How can a humdrum, take it for granted network app suddenly become "sexy"? Speaking with Mark Cattini, CEO of Autotask, a couple of points immediately make things clearer. One is that we have that rare example of a Brit in charge of a US company (since three years ago), and a Brit who's seen it all from both sides of the fence, pond and universe. So he understands the concept of "International". Secondly, we have an instance of a product having been written from day one as a SaaS application, long before SaaS was invented - think about the biz flow product I've spoken about (and tested) many times here - Thingamy - and it's the same story, just a complimentary app that is all part of the "bigger picture".
The cloud, being forced on the IT world, is perfect for the likes of Autotask. It gives them the deployment and management flexibility that enables a so-called deluxe trouble-ticketing and workflow app to become a fundamental tool for the day-to-day running of a network (and a business) on a global scale. I was talking the other day with another ITSM client of mine, Laurence Coady of Richmond Systems, and he was saying how the cloud has enabled the company's web-enabled version of its ITSM suite to go global from an office in Hampshire, with virtually no sales and marketing costs involved, thanks to the likes of Amazon's cloud.
Mark Cattini spoke about his pre-Autotask days including a long stint in International sales with Lotus Notes. I made the point that Notes created an entire sub-industry with literally thousands of apps designed specifically to work with and support Notes - almost a pre-Internet Internet. While it seems absurd to say that something as "long-winded" as ITSM-related products can become the next Notes, think about it in a business/workflow perspective within a cloud infrastructure, given that there are open APIs to all this software (so anyone can join in) and given that no one really knows what "big data" is and we have a genuine infrastructure for building the next generation networks on - real software defined networking in other words!
