Shane Warne bowls his maiden over, proposing to Liz Hurley (she said yes)
- From: The Sunday Telegraph
- October 02, 2011
SHANE Warne has reportedly bowled his maiden over, with British media saying the champion cricketer is engaged to girlfriend Liz Hurley.
The Daily Mail newspaper reported that Warne proposed to the British model and actress yesterday in front of stunned dinner guests at the famous Scottish golf course, St Andrews.
Warne, 42, and Hurley, 45, were guests of the Scottish course for a pro-am event in which Warne played.
A witness told The Daily Mail newspaper: "Shane proposed over dinner (in fine dining establishment Road Hole Restaurant) ... and it was fairly public _ not a private affair.
"It was a VIP crowd in there this evening .. he didn't get down on one knee, but when it was announced, the other guests in the restaurant stood up and applauded. Everyone was absolutely delighted.''
A spokesman for the Scottish hotel declined to comment. The pair, both avid Twitter users, had not posted any news of the reported engagement yesterday.
Warne's most recent post read: "Let's play the Dunhill together next year _ you up for it? You swing great & have nice rhythm _ with a super short game! X''.
It was a response to an earlier tweet from Hurley: "Good luck at the Dunhill! Still amazed I wasn't asked to compete xxxxx''.
Warne and Hurley first met at Britain's Goodward races in July 2010 before publicly flirting on the microblogging site.
The pair were first reported to be an item after they were photographed kissing in London in December last year.
Many thought Warne had blown his chances with Hurley _ who shot to fame as actor Hugh Grant's girlfriend and starred in the spoof film Austin Powers _ when he was sprung sexting married Melbourne woman Adele Angeleri at the same time he was courting the British beauty.
Hurley even posted a tweet that appeared to signal the relationship was well and truly over: "Er ... please take any mentions of me in the latest thrilling instalment of the Jerry Springer-esque saga with a LARGE pinch of salt.''
But then in February, Hurley arrived in Melbourne to meet Warne's family, attracting much attention from the paparazzi.
Warne, famed as much for his penchant for womanising as his ability to spin a cricket ball, divorced wife Simone Callahan, with whom he has three children, in 2006.
Hurley divorced her multimillionaire businessman husband Arun Nayar in June.
She has a son, Damian, from a previous relationship with entrepreneur Steve Bing.
Warne has received flak for the dramatic physical transformation he has undergone in the 10 months he has been dating Hurley, with many speculating he had gone under the knife _ something he has denied.
Meantime, Hurley's acting career is enjoying something of a revival, with the star playing a cameo role as a sexy media mogul in the fifth series of the popular television series Gossip Girl, which aired last week.
Warne's brother Jason last night said he was unsure whether the couple had become engaged.
"I have no idea. I played golf this morning and I've been watching the grand final,'' he told The Sunday Telegraph.
But the former spinner's close friend and poker buddy Tony Hachem said he would not be surprised given Warne had previously spoken of his plans to propose to Hurley.
"Shane, when he puts something to his head, he does it,'' Mr Hachem said. "But all I can say is he hasn't spoken to me about whether he's getting engaged or not.
"(But) if that's the case, I want to be the first to congratulate them. I'm probably the last person he tells.''

Shocking development: high school kids continue to drink and get high. And seeing as it's nearly time for students to head back to class, that must mean it's also time for the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University (CASAColumbia) to release its 17th annual study documenting drug use among teenagers.
As noted in the MyNorthwest.com post:
"For millions of American teens, drugs and alcohol, not more advanced education, are what put the 'high' in the high schools they attend," said Joseph A. Califano, Jr. Founder and Chairman Emeritus of CASAColumbia and former US Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare.
"For millions of parents trying to raise drug-free kids, the 'high' school years are the most dangerous times their children face, and the 'high' schools are a dangerous place to send their kids."
Get it!?!
Of course, just because high school kids have been partying, drinking and smoking weed since nearly the beginning of time, that doesn't make it a good thing, and the intention of this post is not to endorse or make light of it. While Califano's comments may be a bit over-the-top (not to mention punny!), there's certainly still something to be taken from the annual CASAColumbia study.
High school kids drink and get high. If you're a parent trying to ignore this fact, you're only doing yourself and your child a disservice.
Also interesting (but not terribly surprising), the study notes the role the Internet and social media plays in influencing kids' decision to use drugs and/or party.
More from MyNorthwest.com:
Social media continues to play a significant part in influencing teen drug and alcohol use. The survey found 75 percent of kids between 12 and 17-years-old said seeing pictures of teens partying online made them more interested in using drugs or alcohol themselves.
"This year's survey reveals a new kind of potent peer pressure-digital peer pressure. Digital peer pressure moves beyond a child's friends and the kids they hang out with. It invades the home and a child's bedroom via the Internet," said Califano.

2) PROPOSAL TITLE Methodological Challenges of Medieval Literatures in Contemporary Literary History. Korea August 15-21 2010
full name / name of organization:
Cesar Dominguez / University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain)
contact email:
"Methodological Challenges of Medieval Literatures in Contemporary Literary History".
This is a workshop for the XIXth Congress of the International Comparative Literature Association (August 15-21, 2010. Seoul, Korea).
The aim of the workshop is to reflect on the methodological challenges medieval literatures pose to comparative literary history. As non-national cultural formations, medieval literatures ask specific questions about the historiographical activity that, however, have been either overlooked or dealt with according to the national paradigm.
Due to the methodological focus of the workshop, the emphasis should be placed on case-studies that highlight the medieval challenges and how they may be addressed in a world context.
Some topics (but not exclusively) that may be discussed are:
* The idea of "Middle Ages" and "medieval literature" in a world context
If you are interested in participating in this workshop, please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com at your earliest convenience. The deadline to send the workshop proposal to the Congress organizers is June 30, 2009.

The Cookteenancnyva Norfolk, VA
teenancnyva's recipes haven't caught on yet
About Me
I have loved cooking since my grandma let me help her make mashed potatoes when I was 5 years old. I am striving to retain the authentic southern recipes I saw my two grandmothers and my mother make. They "eyeballed" a lot in th eir cooking, so I am trying to revive the tastes from memory. It's hard! Also, my children are half Italian and I have some recipes their Great-Grandma and Aunts left to me before they passed. Someday I would like to publish all my "last century" recipes, for my kids if for no one else. Family preservation at work! Read more

Found cracked 3GS - Is it dead?
I found a 3GS in the trash today. The screen was cracked very badly. The phone wouldn't turn on, and it wouldn't get detected by my computer either.
So, I took it apart to see how things looked on the inside. Everything honestly looks great. There are 2 watermarker stickers. One's white, and the other one's pink (the one nearest the headphone jack is the pink one). Other than that, everything on the inside looks fine. Everything is connected perfectly, yet it doesn't want to turn on or do anything...
Any ideas?
Here are some images (1 | 2 | 3 | 4).
I was told that I could get it to work as long as I can get a working front panel installed, and a new battery. Is this possible?
Is this a good question?

I've been getting horrible migraines with this pregnancy. Last one started last Thursday (it's TUESDAY for crying out loud!! ) I've worked every day- Thurs, Fri, Mon, and today with it. I sit in front of a computer all day and read so the strain on my eyes is killing me!! I finally gave in to my doctor and am taking tylenol 3 (with codeine) but it's not really helping. I took one this AM before work and it made me so dizzy and light-headed I simply cannot take another one at work, I now know.
My issue is I'm salary so if I go, I get paid for the day but I don't want my co-workers to think I'm not pulling my weight or leaving early because I can and I certainly cannot call in sick because I need ALL my PTO for maternity leave.
Anyone else?? Thoughts?? HELP ME!!

However, I think that this is one of the most useful, succinct pieces of information on behavior relavent to myself and many people I know that I ever have read in my life. What's interesting to me is that as I read it, my mind opened up to all the possibilities of healthy addictions. Who is to say that all addictions must be harmful if one can gain some good from them? Exercise, impulsive creative artistry, composing music, the possibilities are endless. Why does something practiced in a manner that at times can be a bit "over the top" be always considered a bad thing? Shopping? If one has the means, why not? Why must we, as humans, constantly judge ourselves and strip away every flaw that serves to make us more human? There are obviously concessions to make with those whom we share our lives with but beyond that, I get frustrated with constantly trying to meet some preset standard that is acceptible by majority rule. I prefer to be me, thank you very much.

I hope you didn't stop reading after the first sentence, Therese. (just recalled something you said in another post)

A tremendous value
If you are looking to really get the most from your iPhone, then by all means get a pair of Spider realvoices and get rid of those horrid iBuds. The sound is superb, and I have many many headphones, some costing 4-5x the Spiders, which don't take a backseat to any of them. Plus, this is a very good price, since they are $89 regularly. All I can say is buy these phones if you love listening to music.

YET more links coming soon...! including Non-Anglican links
We give thanks for the continued growth of GAFCON. Our meeting included representatives from ten provinces (Congo, Kenya, Myanmar, Nigeria, North America, Rwanda, South America, South Sudan & Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda) and two branches (Australia and the United Kingdom).
We also celebrated the newest branch of the movement that has been founded in New Zealand. While we were meeting in Nairobi, 500 people came together in Auckland and Christ Church, New Zealand to stand together for the truth of the Gospel. They have our full support, and we are excited to see what God will do in and through them in the years to come.
Filed under: * Anglican - Episcopal Global South Churches & Primates GAFCON II 2013
'..the council declined to endorse or take any action similar to the primates' call in January for three years of so-called "consequences" for the Episcopal Church. The primates' call was in response to the 78th General Convention's decision to change canonical language that defines marriage as being between a man and a woman (Resolution A036) and authorize two new marriage rites with language allowing them to be used by same-sex or opposite-sex couples (Resolution A054).'
ACC Churns Out Resolutions - The Living Church
'Resolution C34, proposed by delegates from South Sudan, called upon the ACC to receive the report of the January Primates' Meeting, including consequences for the Episcopal Church detailed by the primates' communiqué. It affirmed "the commitment of the Primates of the Anglican Communion to walk together; and commits to continue to seek appropriate ways for the provinces of the Anglican Communion to walk together with each other and with the Primates and other Instruments of Communion." As part of the consent agenda, the resolution was received without objection and passed without amendment.
A second resolution welcoming the full text of the primates' communiqué was proposed by delegates from Ireland and Australia. It was initially set aside for further discussion, but was later withdrawn by the proposers. The Archbishop of Canterbury told the delegates that he was pleased with this action, saying that Resolution C34 "covers issues we need to cover," establishing sufficient concurrence between the ACC and the Primates' Meeting.
"The consequences [for the Episcopal Church] stand," Archbishop Justin Welby said in a news conference Monday afternoon.'
ACC-16: Electric Boogaloo - Tom Ferguson, Crusty Old Dean
'The ACC formally received the report from the Primates' Meeting in a resolution proposed by Bishop Deng of Sudan. Further, declined to pass a resolution which would have received and welcomed the entire text of the Primates. Some people have been spinning the first action: by "receiving" the Report, is it acknowledging and approving of that report? Others have focused on the second action: Or, by declining to receive the entire text, is that somehow a repudiation? In the end, it did what it was supposed to do: one instrument of communion received a report from another. By failing to receive the entire report, this can clearly be seen as being reluctant to take any further steps, but Crusty is reluctant to see it as some kind of grand repudiation of the Primates, at least at this stage.'

In an 11 April 2016 interview, the Most Rev. Eliud Wabukala confirmed the forgery was a ruse to justify the attendance of the Kenyan delegation to the meeting and to "defy my authority."
Archbishop Wabukala explained he had been in Marsabit brokering an end to clashes between pastoralists and farmers in northern Kenya when "I found the delegation from Kenya were ready to go," with air tickets and travel reservations in hand. Aware of the archbishop's opposition to their attending the meeting, the leader of the delegation, the Rt. Rev. Joel Waweru, Bishop of Nairobi telephoned and asked for a meeting in the provincial office with the archbishop and the two other delegates..

The readers may learn out of our Institutions what profit we reap by the ascension of Christ. Notwithstanding, because it is one of the chiefest points of our faith, therefore doth Luke endeavor more diligently to prove the same; yea, rather, the Lord himself meant to put the same out of all doubt, when as he hath ascended so manifestly, and hath confirmed the certainty of the same by other circumstances. For, if so be it he had vanished away secretly, then might the disciples have doubted what was become of him; but now, sith that they, being in so plain a place, saw him taken up with whom they had been conversant, whom also they heard speak even now, whom they beheld with their eyes, whom also they see taken out of their sight by a cloud, there is no cause why they should doubt whither he was gone. Furthermore, the angels are there also to bear witness of the same. And it was needful that the history should have been set down so diligently for our cause, that we may know assuredly, that although the Son of God appear nowhere upon earth, yet doth he live in the heavens. And this seemeth to be the reason why the cloud did overshadow him, before such time as he did enter into his celestial glory; that his disciples being content with their measure might cease to inquire any further. And we are taught by them that our mind is not able to ascend so high as to take a full view of the glory of Christ; therefore, let this cloud be a mean to restrain our boldness, as was the smoke which was continually before the door of the tabernacle in the time of the law.

Ascension theology turns at this point to the Eucharist, for in celebrating the eucharist the church professes to know how the divine presents itself in our time, and how the question of faithfulness is posed. Eucharistically, the church acknowledges that Jesus has heard and has answered the upward call; that, like Moses, he has ascended into that impenetrable cloud overhanging the mountain. Down below, rumours of glory emanate from the elders, but the master himself is nowhere to be seen. He is no longer with his people in the same way he used to be. Yet he is with them, in the Spirit.--Douglas Farrow, Ascension Theology (New York: T and T Clark, 2011), p. 64

I fear that the dreary headteachers think we are all the same. They think religion is much of a muchness and a private thing like violin practice. Just as one lot of teaching unions holds its conference over Easter weekend, God forgive them, so the headteachers held theirs this weekend over the Orthodox Easter Sunday. They prefer resolutions to absolution and unholy union business to Holy Communion.
The fundamental question is: whose children do they think they are teaching? It is as though they thought children belonged to the state and must be protected from the beliefs of their parents.

The conditions legislated for qualification for hastened death will be critical. They must be very limited and strictly controlled; they underline that it is an exceptional intervention, limited to adults competent at the time of death, terminally ill from a physical disease or disability, in unbearable suffering and giving their informed consent.

Sextortion is a crime in which someone requests money in exchange for not releasing sexually explicit images or information.
Both the number of cases and incidents is growing, according to NCIS, which says that since August 2012, perpetrators have targeted at least 160 sailors and marines across the country, resulting in the loss of about $45,000.
Typically, perpetrators will request anywhere from $500 to $1,500.

Second, from its very first sentence the bill sounds the final death-knell, for all public purposes, of Abrahamic faith. The Carter/C-14 doctrine of autonomy is a clear repudiation of that kind of faith and the establishment of a new faith in man as utterly independent of God. One does not need to be Abrahamic to understand this. If the Parliament of Canada recognizes personal autonomy as extending a moral right to determine the manner and timing of one's own death, and to take one's own life or another's life, it necessarily recognizes the person—and itself as a deliberative body of persons—as lying outside of all putative divine authority in such matters. In short, the C-14 preamble is the final repudiation of the Charter preamble. "The principles of fundamental justice" (§71) now operate independently of any reference whatsoever to the supremacy of God. The link between "the supremacy of God and the rule of law" is decisively severed.

Even before they took Ann off life support, the Grosmaires knew wanted to forgive her murderer, her high school boyfriend Conor McBride.
"Conor has said that act could not have been anything but from God because people alone can't do that; it has to be from God," said Kate, who still talks to McBride on the phone once a week. "That was the start of his salvation."
Since Ann's death in 2010, Kate and husband Andy Grosmaire have become advocates for an approach to criminal punishment called restorative justice. In their daughter's murder case, the Catholic couple learned they could push for lighter charges than life in prison.

The words preceding Jesus' commission were these: "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me" (Matt. 28:18). He then went on to say, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations" (v. 19). When Jesus gave this commission to the church, He was speaking authoritatively. He gave a mandate to the church of all ages not simply to evangelize but to make disciples. That raises a significant question: What is a disciple?

In Barna's landmark study, The Porn Phenomenon (now available to purchase online), commissioned by Josh McDowell Ministry, we interviewed thousands of American teens, young adults and older adults about their views on and use of pornography. Here are ten of the most compelling findings:
1. There is Moral Ambiguity Toward Porn, Particularly Among Younger Americans
Perhaps the most sobering finding from the study is the reality of how accepted viewing porn has become in our culture today, particularly among teens and young adults. Around half of adults 25 and older say viewing porn is wrong (54%), and among teens and young adults 13-24, only a third say viewing porn is wrong (32%). This posture toward porn among younger Americans is confirmed by how they talk about porn with their friends: the vast majority reports that conversations with their friends about porn are neutral, accepting or even encouraging. They generally assume most people look at porn at least on occasion, and the morality of porn is rarely discussed or even considered. Just one in 10 teens and one in 20 young adults report talking with their friends about porn in a disapproving way.

It is quite a small room: plain white walls, two three-seater sofas, a couple of pot-plants. If it were not for the black-and-white pictures of 19 Premier League managers hung on the walls, it could be a humdrum suite in a mid-ranking business hotel.
Instead, Claudio Ranieri's office at the King Power stadium has become the nerve-centre of the greatest fairytale English football has ever seen, the place where plots have been hatched and victories toasted.
Ranieri's decision to adorn the wall with images of his peers was designed to make them feel at ease when they visited him after matches; instead, they have assumed the look of big-game trophies, all eclipsed by Ranieri and his remarkable band of title winners.

But 53 years later, Maryland and six other states still have articles in their constitutions saying people who do not believe in God are not eligible to hold public office. Maryland's Constitution still says belief in God is a requirement even for jurors and witnesses.
Now a coalition of nonbelievers says it is time to get rid of the atheist bans because they are discriminatory, offensive and unconstitutional. The bans are unenforceable dead letters, legal experts say, and state and local governments have rarely invoked them in recent years. But for some secular Americans, who are increasingly visible and organized, removing the bans is not only a just cause, but a test of their growing movement's political clout.

This can be uncomfortable. It raises the awkward issue of what philosophers have learned to call "moral luck" – the fact that some people with immense potential for evil don't actualise it, because the circumstances don't present them with the chance, and that some others who might have spent their lives in blameless normality end up supervising transports to Auschwitz. Or, to take a sharply contemporary example, that one Muslim youth from a disturbed or challenging background becomes a suicide bomber but another from exactly the same background doesn't. It is as though there were a sort of diabolical mirror image for the biblical Parable of the Sower: some seeds grow and some don't, depending on the ground they fall on, or what chance external stimulus touches them at critical moments.
If what interests us is simply how to assign individuals rapidly and definitively to the categories of sheep and goats, saved and damned, this is offensively frustrating. But if we recognise that evil is in important respects a shared enterprise, we may be prompted to look harder at those patterns of behaviour and interaction that – in the worst cases – give permission to those who are most capable of extreme destructiveness, and to examine our personal, political and social life in the light of this.

Yesterday, we made the thrilling announcement that a time, a date and a place had finally been chosen for the Voracious Tasting & Food Awards--our (kinda) 1st annual Seattle food-and-drinks bachanalia to be held on April 14 at the Paramount Theatre. There's gonna be chefs. There's gonna be music. There's gonna be food and booze and crowds and everything else good under the sun (all of which you can read about at the Voracious Tasting website), and if you care at all about those kinds of things you really ought to be making plans right now. I'm just sayin'...
But one thing I glossed rather quickly over in yesterday's post was that, this year, we're also going to be publicly bestowing three big-time awards on three deserving chefs, producers, winemakers, restaurants or organizations. There's an award for Innovation which will be handed down to the chef or restaurant in the Puget Sound area who is getting the most freaky with their food--truly pushing the boundaries of creativity and advancing the evolution of the local dining scene. There's an award for Sustainability which will honor those making a major contribution to "sustainable agriculture and environmentally responsible food production," whether it be on the level of farming, growing and ranching or, at the other end of the food chain, a chef or restaurant owner making sure that we're not all going to die of mercury poisoning just from eating a little sushi.
The third award being given out this year is the Pellegrini Award, named for the late Seattle writer, teacher, winemaker, scholar and cook, Angelo Pellegrini. And it is with this award that we need a little help.
Because the Pellegrini Award is such a big deal, we've decided to open our deliberations up to suggestions from you, the public. This year's award criteria have been broken down by a panel of past award winners and notable local food personalities, all of whom have been inspired by the legacy of Angelo Pellegrini. What they came up with in terms of who should be considered for the award is this:
1) A person whose efforts [in their life and in their work] foster the "good life" as
it encompasses food, wine, community, and the joys of the table.
2) A person whose efforts not only display passion and generosity but
also have influenced many others over the years.
3) A Pellegrini Award nominee will have embodied the above criteria for at least 10 years.
That's the official word. But there's also a sort of informal standard at work here--which is that a nominee for an award named after a guy like Angelo Pellegrini ought to also take his or her inspirations from similar places and do whatever it is they do (cook or brew or serve or grow) with the same sort of passion.
Therefore, knowing a little something about the man is important here. Back in Denver, my buddy Dave had a line for guys like Pellegrini. "Dude isn't old-school," he'd say. "Dude built the old school." Which meant that whoever it was we were talking about didn't just have a history with something, but rather was a piece of that history.
Angelo Pellegrini certainly qualifies in that regard. This was a man who wrote books (1948's The Unprejudiced Palate in particular) that became more culty among certain chefs and food producers than any volume of Harold McGee or early Marco Pierre White; who was deeply invested in the tenets of the Slow Food movement long before it had a name, a logo or meetings. He was a proponent of seasonal cooking, of sustainability and locality (no matter your locale) before caring about any such thing was hip, cool or convenient. He talked (and wrote) about cooking simply, with ingredients close at hand, at a time when the nascent American food scene was just becoming obsessed with complicated gallery presentations and foods from far-off lands. He was, in effect, a man who would've been perfectly at home writing about food today, but in terms of the modern mantras of simplicity, seasonality and locality, somehow managed to beat all of us--chefs and writers included--by a good fifty years. More than anything, he seems to be a man who found joy and inspiration in food, wine and good conversation--hence all that "good life" talk up top.
So what we're asking you good people is simply this: Who in your life, in your community, does this remind you of? We want to hear about the veteran butchers and chefs who work from their own gardens, about the artisinal producers and farmers you buy from, the boutique winemakers you cherish, the fishermen, cooks, growers and owners who most embody the spirit of this man who had such a lasting effect, not just on the local food scene, but that of the entire nation.
You can add your suggestions/nominations in the comment section below, or email them straight to me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll make sure all reasonable suggestions make it into the hands of those making the final decision.
So think hard and dig deep, my friends. Make your case and be ready to defend it. The nomination fight begins...

Mind the Gap: The Left Must Live with Globalisation. Europe's Social Model Will Help Us, Says Peter Mandelson
Mandelson, Peter, New Statesman (1996)
Francois Hollande may be running for president of France, but his election manifesto reads to me like a sign of the general times for the global left. Parts of it could have been written by the protesters in Athens or Madrid. Parts of it could have been lifted from Barack Obama's recent State of the Union speech. What links them is a sense of lost control and a desire to take it back. Control taken away by financial markets, by the forces of globalisation, in Europe by Brussels and, by implication, Berlin.
This is an important moment for the left. Globalisation is attacked from all sides. Capitalism is apparently in crisis. The EU's collective rush to austerity politics presents a grave threat to growth. The instinct of the left is to position itself against all three, but it needs to choose its targets carefully. This implied warning was the theme of an IPPR report I helped prepare on the "Third Wave of Globalisation".
If the left's strategy is to take back a greater measure of control over our economic lives there are plenty of credible candidates. Tougher regulation of financial markets will help, as will promoting greater long-termism in investment. Reducing deficits at an appropriate pace will help keep the bond market off our backs. But the most important focus for the left should be on equipping people to live in an uncertain economic world, not shutting that world out. Railing against globalisation misses the target.
Because globalisation itself is not really the problem. The pre-globalised world was not a secure and egalitarian paradise. Every politician who has ever uttered the words "export-led recovery" has acknowledged the reality that Britain and Europe need to sell to global markets to prosper. Our huge European single market and the growing markets of the emerging world are critical to our economic future.
However, you cannot realistically be pro-exports but anti-imports in an international economy built on global supply chains, as much of what we import we transform into goods that we then sell abroad. Every politician who has ever worried about the cost of living must have noticed that international production models have lowered the costs of the basics of life to levels that have no precedent in economic history.
The banking crisis discredited certain kinds of financial capitalism and financial regulation, not capitalism in general. It was a warning about consumer debt and the fact that you can't build an economy on it. It was a warning about short-term incentives trumping long-term goals. And in its aftermath we recognise very starkly that the gap between the rich and the rest in our society has grown unacceptably wide. But these are problems of taxation, regulation, corporate culture and personal responsibility. …

The European Union competition watchdog said a trustee will monitor both companies to ensure there is no information sharing between the Ocean3 and G6 ocean carrier alliances, of which CMA CGM and Neptune Orient Lines subsidiary APL are currently members.
Scales currently used to comply with federal and state laws are acceptable for complying with the new International Maritime Organization container weight regulations due to go into effect July 1, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
Ocean carriers CMA CGM, COSCO, Evergreen Line and OOCL revealed they will form a new alliance next April.
Allowing foreign-owned ships operated by foreign crews to participate in cabotage trade in the United States would add to the burden facing domestic security agencies, according to a new report from Lexington Institute.
Several trade associations, led by Cargo Network Services, will host an air cargo regulatory conference in the Washington, D.C. area in October.

I've had the argument many times that the original version of the Allman Brothers Band was the best blues-rock band in the history of rock. Many insist it's Led Zeppelin. (more…)

Epihone Deluxe Archtop
Webster's latest defines the word "deluxe" as "…notably luxurious, elegant, or expensive." The Epiphone Deluxe archtop guitar was certainly luxurious. When introduced in 1931, it sported a triple-bound top with rope-pattern purfling, fancy diamond-and-triangle position markers on the neck, a bound "Masterbilt" headstock inlaid with flowers, gold-plated parts, curly maple back and sides, and (more…)

FEATURES THE DIFFERENT STRUMMER Sparkle & Glitter: Guitars Made in Italy, Part 1 Most American guitar aficionados are familiar with EKO guitars, while other Italian brands flew below our radar in the '60s. Thus, the real tradition of their guitars remains misty for most of us. Here begins a tribute. By Michael Wright BASS SPACE […]
Demeter Fat Conrol, Compulator, and Reverb

Crate V Series Amps
St. Louis Music has been building Crate amplifiers since the late 1970s, and straight out of the chute, they gained a reputation for being well-designed, good-sounding, affordable, and oh-so-cute in their little crate-like cabinets. Through the years, the Crate lines has (more…)

Larry Coryell – Tricycles
Anyone remember when Larry Coryell was one of the youngbloods of jazz guitar? Sheesh, I must be getting a bit "advanced" in age, eh? Through the years, there's never been a doubt in my mind that Larry's chops were as strong as anyone's. (more…)

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Toscana Grill
by Vegan Gourmet
Review: We ate at Toscana Grill and enjoyed the all vegan menu (every Sunday in April thanks to COK). Our server was excellent. We shared pasta e fagioli soup (because it was freezing today), Caesar salad with Gardein strips (lightly grilled), and Gardein Chick'n Marsala. The soup, highly recommended, was perfectly spiced; Caesar salad dressing was creamy and garlicky, and the Chick'n Marsala was good but only if you like Marsala (think chicken-fried steak smothered in Marsala with mashed potatoes). Disregard "mushed" potatoes; it's a typo on the menu. Many vegan options from which to choose, including 6 pizzas, some with Daiya cheese. "Beef" dishes are made with Match Meats. Vegan kids menu too. Amazing selection of mouth-watering desserts from Vegan Treats (in PA), all large-portioned and decadent. If you're not up for dinner, go to Toscana Grill for dessert and a beverage. It will be well worth it! If you haven't been to Toscana Grill within the last 6 months, I recommend that you go back and try the new veg. menu. See entire vegan menu on website. http://www.toscanagrill.com (click on Page 5).
