Who's Minding the Twitter? Big Companies' Most Painful Mis-Tweets
Businesses love how Twitter lets them connect in a personal way with customers. But because of tweeting's casual and irreverent style, some companies get lulled into a false sense of intimacy -- right up until a poorly thought out tweet gets them into serious hot water.

COLLEGE PARK, Ga. -- A fight after a Friday night football game ended in a teen getting shot.
According to Kay Lester with Fulton County police, just before 10:30 p.m., a large group of boys were leaving a game at Banneker High School and got into an argument around the area of 6000 Feldwood Road.
Someone pulled a gun and began shooting. A 14-year-old boy was hit and taken to Grady with non-life threatening injuries.
Police arrested one person who had a weapon but that was not the alleged shooter.
Police are still trying to identify the shooter.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) --- President Obama walks onto a debate stage in New York Tuesday night suffering from the results of a weak performance in his first debate with Republican challenger Mitt Romney, his hands tied town hall format that will make it harder for him to attack Romney without offending voters who will be asking the questions and expecting answers rather than seeing their questions being used as launching pads for political attacks.
The first debate was more formal, and allowed Romney to attack the administration's record while the President's seemingly cool approach made him appear disengaged and offered undecided voters a reason for more seriously considering Romney than they had before.
"I think for Governor Romney, just maintaining the status quo is a win.
" I think there's much more pressure on President Obama. On one level the expectations are very low for the president. He just has to show up act like he's interested and he'll be better than the first time around. But he also put an unnecessary amount of pressure on himself because of that first debate performance," said Nathan Gonzales of the Rothenberg Political Report.
"I think all the attention around the first presidential debate guarantees that this second debate is going to be under a huge microscope, and I think that it just adds more and more focus because of what happened the first time around," Gonzales told 9News Now.
Gonzales sees the Obama campaign facing obstacles Tuesday night.
"I think, the president, there is only so much under his control after the first debate.
"I think he can throw out some red meat to the base. He can talk to the swing voters but one thing I don't think he can erase is the enthusiasm on the Republican side .
"I think the first debate punctured the hole of inevitability in the president's argument for his re-election," Gonzales said.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - The Petraeus plot thickens. What started as an extramarital affair has morphed into a drama of intrigue and access, with many wondering, what's next? Having trouble keeping up with who the players are?
Was it really just Friday that we found out about the affair between the very-much married, now-former CIA Director David Petraeus and his also very much-married biographer Paula Broadwell?
You may know the affair came to light after 37-year-old married Tampa mom Jill Kelley, a volunteer party planner for the military, complained to a friend, an FBI agent, that she was receiving threatening emails, reportedly from Broadwell. That started the investigation that blew the lid on the Petraeus/Broadwell affair.
But get your scorecard.
General John Allen, the top commander in Afghanistan and the man who took Petraeus' place there, is now under investigation. It seems when the FBI was looking into those threatening emails, it also found 20,000 to 30,000 pages of emails between Jill Kelley and Allen. Some sources say they emails are flirtatious, potentially inappropriate and may have crossed the line. Others say other than the occasional "dear" or a "sweetheart," nothing was going on between the two.
Allen's nomination to become the next commander of U.S. European Command and of NATO forces in Europe is on hold.
In another twist, remember that FBI agent, the one who originally started looking into those threatening emails? He's apparently now being investigated for sending "shirtless" photos via email to Jill Kelley. He's now off the case.
Our last player in this drama is Jill Kelley's twin sister, Natalie Khawam. She's embroiled in a nasty child custody fight. Both Petraeus and Allen have written letters in her defense.
Back to Broadwell: FBI agents searched her North Carolina home on Monday, with her permission, and took eight to 10 boxes with them. She's isn't talking, and has laid low since the affair came to light.
Tuesday night, she was spotted at her brother's home in Northwest D.C. Her father told the New York Daily News, "This is about something else entirely, and the truth will come out."

His overall opinion on the past year of cyclone athletics and where we need to go from here.
Ask him if he's concerned that neither the football or men's basketball program have seen a post-season (bowl game or NCAA Tourney) since he was hired as athletic director...He was hired in the middle of McCarney's last winning football season, which was actually very disappointing, so I don't count that as a success...

MOUNDSVILLE - Nine days ago a youthful Wheeling Central baseball team watched a four-run, seventh-inning lead disappear in a stunning loss to Bishop Donahue at the J.B. Chambers I-470 Sports Complex.
Tuesday the Maroon Knights returned the visit and the Bishops nearly turned the day into a little deja-vu.
Wheeling Central took advantage of four Bishop Donahue errors in the third inning to push across six runs and then withstood a five-run Bishops uprising in the bottom of the seventh to hold on for 7-6 victory on Donahue's diamond.
Coach Jimbo Wodusky's Knights upped their record to 3-6 on the season, but he hopes the game will also provide a spark.
''We scored some unearned runs and we are still a young team trying to learn to take advantage of the other team's mistakes,'' Wodusky said. ''Good teams already know how to do that, and hopefully this is a first step for us.''
Early on it was the Knights that appeared doomed to give things away, but Bishop Donahue (6-5) was unable to convert a pair of first-inning Central miscues into runs.
That was not the case in the top of third as a pair of costly errors as the Nos. 7 and 8 hitters in the Maroon Knights lineup set the state for J.D. Griffith's two-run double to right-center field.
A fielder's choice and a walk loaded the bases before winning pitcher Nate Bakaitis stroked a run-scoring single and another run came around on an error.
Derek Yocke's sacrifice fly produced the fifth run before the fourth error of the inning led to a 6-0 lead.
Mistakes led to the next two runs, one for each team, before Donahue headed for the home-half of the seventh down 7-1 and with a pair of infield singles to its credit. That all changed as the hosts collected six hits and five runs.
Matt Vucelik's two-run double keyed the uprising while Philip Smith, Lance LeMasters and Hunter Kaschke all had run-scoring base hits. With the tying run standing at second and two down, Chaice Truex hit a hard grounder up the middle that was fielded and the throw just beat the sophomore to the bag to end the contest.
''We decided to finally hit the ball in the seventh inning, which seems to be what we do all the time now,'' a disappointed Donahue coach Bob Kleeh said. ''We have just not hit consistently, and while we don't quit and we play all seven, we have to get more consistent.
''Joey Myers did a nice job on the mound and what happened in the third inning was not his fault, but we just have a few things we need to clean up. They are a young team like we are, but they did what they had to do to get the win and we just waited too long."
Central's Bakaitis fanned four and walked two through five innings while allowing the two infield hits. Meanwhile, Myers allowed seven hits, five singles and a pair of doubles, but pitched well enough to win if not for the fateful third-inning letdown.
''Nate was pitching very well and I wanted to leave him in there, but his pitch count was getting high and we have a lot of games left this week so we are going to need him,'' Wodusky added.
''They are a very well-coached team that has a lot of discipline at the plate. We had a 5-1 lead on them the last time heading to the seventh and lost the game. Thankfully that didn't happen again.''

Damn, did this all to help someone here in CG who was having troubles, went back to the thread and found an easier solution:
Avoiding polar distortion by ~Naeddyr on deviantART
Has it ever happened to you that you invest a LOT of time drawing a beautiful map that you just love, and one day, for whatever reason you decide to put it on a sphere or take a shot of how the poles look like and you realize they look horrible? then this tutorial is for you.
Let's say the ugly black and white thing below is your map.
And this is the map on a stereographic projection seen from a pole and from the side
The problem is that the equirectangular projection (the 2:1 rectangle in which world maps are usually drawn) heavily distorts poles and when people draw on in, they often don't take into account this distortion or simply fail at doing so. This tutorial focuses on fixing that problem with a method that is NOT redrawing your map multiple times until you get it right.
You are going to need:
1. G.Projector
2. Hugin
3. A raster graphics editor (Photoshop, GIMP, Paint.NET, etc.)
Step 1
Reprojecting your map to stereographic in G.Projector
1. Launch G.Projector
2. Open your map
3. Select the Stereographic projection from the drop down list
4. Set it to latitude 90 (or -90) and radius 90, longitude does not matter
5. Make sure the graticule is on - this is to make sure the process has gone right.
6. Save the newly projected map.
7. Repeat the process for the opposite pole
It should look like this now:
Step 2
Cropping and fixing
1. Open your map in whatever raster graphic software you use
2. Crop the gray borders VERY carefully, the circular area of the map must remain intact
3. remove the remaining gray area leaving it transparent
3. Redraw your poles
4. Save as PNG or another format that supports transparency
Step 3
Restoring the projection
1. Open Hugin
2. Load both of your poles
3. Set in the load dialogue 'Stereographic' and '180' degrees
4. Now position your images
4.1. Open the preview
4.2. Select the 'Move/Drag' tab
4.3. Select only one pole
4.4. Write in 'Pitch' 90 if it's the north pole, -90 if it's the south
4.5. Apply
4.6. Deselect current pole from step 4.3.
4.7. Select the other pole and repeat
4.8. If you feel comfortable, you can also just drag them
4.9. Show both poles to verify they are correctly placed
4.10. Close the 'Fast panorama preview dialog
5. Now save the map
5.1 Back in hugin main window, select the 'stitcher' tab
5.2 Set projection to equirectangular
5.3 Field of view to '360' and '180'
5.4 Click 'calculate optimal size'
5.5 Click 'Fit crop to images'
5.6 Select the file format you desire
5.7 Stitch!
6. A couple of windows will pop up, when finished, check your final image.
EDIT: I just noticed the black lines at the equator, I was in a hurry and just dragged the images, if you do it with care and the pitch dialog, this shouldn't happen, also, the yaw dialog moves the images to the side, in case they are not properly aligned
I know this sounds like a lot, but the process, not including the redrawing, shouldn't take more than 10 minutes, which is a lot less than redrawing over and over and over and over again until you get it right

Business Wire Boston
Boston-area clients and friends of Business Wire, including members of the media, gathered at the Boston Harbor Hotel on Oct. 4 to celebrate our landmark anniversary. The event featured a keynote address from Christopher Mayer, Publisher of The Boston Globe, and a champagne toast to commemorate the occasion.
Mayer discussed the recent launch of BostonGlobe.com as a separate entity from Boston.com, including the new paywall for content and better understanding the diverse interests of their online readers.
Through research, Mayer's team discovered that more than 50 percent of the people accessing Boston.com were not aware they were reading The Boston Globe. He explained that while the Globe has an expansive online audience, the readership is fragmented and has forced the organization to adapt and focus on how they are connecting with readers.
The Boston Globe has the traditional role of producing quality journalism, but Mayer said in today's media environment, success is just as much about being a facilitator of content and connecting advertisers to readers.
For a more detailed overview, check out this blog post by Bill McLaughlin, EVP of Lois Paul & Partners, who interviewed Christopher Mayer after his talk.

Caught on Tape: Stockton police make forceful arrest | Crime
STOCKTON, CA - The beating of a suspect by police officers with batons, was witnessed by dozens of people near a downtown cineplex, including News10 cameras.
Police were detaining Barike Wiltz, 34, because he was intoxicated. A scuffle with an officer began with the suspect and home video, shot by a nearby store owner, shows Barike trying to grab the officer's gun.
The suspect then fled a block away to Miner Avenue where we was beaten almost a dozen times by three officers with batons.
A News10 crew was on the street corner taping an unrelated interview and caught the incident on camera.
"I thought it looked like Rodney King being beaten, it seemed like it was too much," witness Trevon Edwards said.
Police defend their actions.
"The suspect grabbed the officers gun and tried to pull it out of the holster, because of that, we used any force necessary to stop the suspect and make an arrest," Det. Joe Silva said.
The suspect, a parolee, is being held in the San Joaquin County Jail on charges of fighting with police and trying to grab an officer's weapon.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) -- Kevin Harvick won a wreck-filled race at Kansas Speedway on Sunday, keeping out of trouble all afternoon and making a big move in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
Harvick pulled away from Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon on a restart with 19 laps to go for his third win of the year. It came after Harvick sat on the pole for the first time in 254 races.
The last time he qualified first, at New Hampshire in 2006, he also won the race.
He was chased across the line by Busch and Gordon. Joey Logano finished fourth, Carl Edwards was fifth and Jimmie Johnson finished sixth despite a hiccup with his engine on the final lap.
Matt Kenseth held onto his lead in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship with an 11th-place finish. Johnson narrowed the gap to just three points.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
The year that just passed saw no shortage of groundbreaking news in the natural living arena. Our readers followed a diverse set of topics, from natural disasters to beauty products and building materials. Here are the top 10 Natural Home Living blog posts of 2009.
1. Weatherize Your Home
Making homes energy efficient while saving money became more important than ever last year. Thankfully, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 allocated $5 billion to weatherize 1.4 million American homes.

Just got a call that Chris Ash is on a plane back to Iowa right now.
He has great recruiting connections in Florida and is known nationally as a very good DB's coach.
Welcome back Coach Ash!
Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.
Bio from Summer 2006 on Cyclones.com:
EDIT: It looks like he was the DB Coach and Recruiting Coordinator at SDSU the last two years:
Notable Players Coached By Ash
- JaMaine Billups, S (Iowa State), Third -team all-Big 12
- LaMarcus Hicks, CB (Iowa State), Detroit Lions, First-team all-Big 12
- Ellis Hobbs, CB (Iowa State), New England Patriots, First-team all-Big 12
- DeAndre Jackson, DB (Iowa State, Led-Big 12 in interceptions in 2005
- Steve Paris, S (Iowa State),Second-team all-Big 12

I think Chris Ash would be a great addition to the staff. I wonder if his Dad is retired or where he's at? He was always an excellent coach at Drake.
NOT his dad at Drake. Lots of jokes made about that.
He is somewhere in Montana right now coaching I think.
Rob Ash I believe is an uncle.
Is the guess that he'll be DB coach here?
Wow, I thought Rob was his Dad. I also think (not sure) he went to Montana State from Drake.
So is this official news that he'll be the DB coach next year?
That would be tremendous. He has done a great job.
Fantastic news, if he will be the secondary coach next year. I felt Ash was one of D-Mac's best assistants in that final year.
Welcome back, Coach Ash!
It would never happen, but what would your response be if McCarney came back as the D coordinator or even Skladany?

Highly unlikely to happen for many reasons.
How do these two even know each other? Paul was gone by the time Ash came on staff?

I was actually always a pretty big supporter of Skladany. In my opinion he got kind of a bum rap when he was here.
Now that MBB is back, do we still have to pretend that WBB matters?

In IIS(Ice In Space), fellow members Paddy and GlenC have put me on a bit of a triple quest. Paddy has a fascination with the Magellanic Clouds, GlenC with the Dunlop objects, and I with anything that is waaaaayyyy too complex, . The target became a part of this triple quest is within a rich region of the LMC that's also rich in Dunlop objects, and profuse with faint & tenuous glow. It is the area surrounding the intense open cluster NGC 1850.
Until recently, 1850 was considered to be a Globular cluster. Recent spectral analysis of it has revealed it to be a giant OC that is actually younger than any other OC in the Milky Way. The size and number of stars in it has allowed the cluster to remain compact for some time, hence its resemblance to a GC. The finest detailed charts available to me of the LMC (courtesy of Paddy's site "Clouds of Magellan"), show that the approximate 0.7 degree FOV of the sketch shows 12 other named objects around 1850. I feel I've managed to see more than that due to the finer scale of my viewing.
Dunlop objects, there are 8 in total here, their "NGC" prefix being ommited: 1850 - D172, 1854 - D119, 1856 - 118, 1858 - D120, 1860 - D172, 1863 - D173, 1866 - D247, and 1870 - D123.
At first glance at the FOV, there seems to be just the four main DSO's with maybe a hint of fainter patches of glow. As time progressed with the sketch, fainter and more extended glows appeared. Almost baby breath like extensions reach out from the cluster/nebula duo 1858, giving it an almost 'spiral galaxy' look. The same, if not even fainter, extends down from 1850 itself. And oh-so-faint arcs reach out in three other parts, one of which has an accompanying arc of stars along its leading edge. Just about every time I looked back into the EP a new glowing patch appeared, "Man, another one!" the exasperated thought came to me, .
1858, again, has such a rich and complex structure too. Its "core" is darker than the surrounding glowing mass - a rich prize on its own!
Late last year I asked in IIS for some sketching suggestions. The end result came back as a montage of the LMC, to which I agreed. BUT, no freaking way am I going to use the same EP & scope combination to do it!!!! Even I am not THAT crazy.
I've included two photos of the sketch, one of which I labled using Paddy's charts as reference, and noted what each DSO is as an OC, GC of N for nebula.
I hope you like this piece. It may not be the most dramatic, but for the observing challenges that it ended up presenting, I am very happy with it.

For KSDK Sports
The St. Louis Cardinals began the offseason with a number of minor additions on their Christmas list. Among those was an additional left-handed reliever, a bench bat and a possible middle-infield backup.
They filled two of those three needs in Ty Wiggington and Randy Choate, but the other need is somewhat less pressing.
With the 2012 season fading away in the rear view mirror, it's time to begin looking at 2013.
There's more to looking forward than simply looking at possible trades and acquisitions. There are also various internal questions that need to be answered as the Cardinals continue to move forward with hopes of playing deep into October once more.
5. Make a decision regarding Matt Adams
Is he an insurance policy, the future at first base or a valuable trade chip? In short, he has the solid potential to be all three.
While the Cardinals seem content with Allen Craig at first base, they have, at least so far, felt the need to hang on to first baseman Matt Adams.
Both players have the potential to be long-term sluggers. The problem is that they are both quite limited as to where they can play defensively.
Mozeliak noted on multiple occasions, including the linked interview with 101ESPN of St. Louis, that he wasn't comfortable bringing Adams up to sit on the bench, but he has hit his ceiling in the minor leagues.
In the event of a Craig injury or extended slump, Adams could be a great insurance policy, but without consistent playing time at the major league level, he may struggle to ever reach his true capability.
The Cardinals feel good about Craig, but not so good that it appears they are ready to send Adams elsewhere.
4. Prep the young arms for expanded roles
With a number of young pitchers moving up to the big league last year, the pitching staff has grown much younger. Pitchers like Shelby Miller and Trevor Rosenthal got their first taste of the big show in 2012, but over the next two seasons they will see their roles expanded exponentially.
As Chris Carpenter's career begins to wind down and Jake Westbrook finishes out his one-year deal, Miller and Rosenthal will have a buffer year to get ready for being every day members of the rotation.
In the meantime, they need to soak in every ounce of wisdom they can from Carpenter and Wainwright.
They're learned a lot of lessons over the years and have much to share with the team's youth that will make their eventual shift to the rotation that much easier.
Both of them have a lot of potential and this next year of development will help shape their entire careers.
3. Find a long-term solution for shortstop
This is one position that always seems to have a question mark.
Rafael Furcal has done a great job when he's healthy, but as he gets older, he will need more downtime to stay at the top of his game. Coming off of an elbow ligament tear, this could be the most physically demanding season of his career, but the Cardinals seem confident that he is their man in 2013.
The upcoming season will be the last of his two-year contract in St. Louis and that makes it a good time for the Cardinals to begin thinking about long-term at shortstop.
Pete Kozma and Ryan Jackson will be able to fill some gaps, but at least at this point, neither appears to be an answer to the Cardinals future at shortstop.
Whether they might seek out a mid-season trade or try their hands at the free agent market next winter, they will likely have to make some type of a move.
There's always the possibility that they could add Furcal for another year, but that's not very likely.
2. Get Oscar Taveras up to learn from Carlos Beltran
There is little doubt that the slugging minor league sensation Oscar Taveras is soon to begin his major league career.
He will most likely start the season at Triple A Memphis, but how long he spends there is up in the air. It could last a full season, but in all reality there's a good chance he will be in St. Louis by the All-Star break.
While he doesn't need to be a temporary bench bat, spending some time alongside Carlos Beltran would be very beneficial to him.
Beltran is impressive in all aspects of his game and does so with a tremendous amount of class. He would be a fantastic mentor for Taveras as he prepares to (most likely) fully take the reins in 2014.
1. Lock up Adam Wainwright
If the Cardinals hope to keep Wainwright around, locking him up early is a must. He has said in the past that he is open to early negotiations, even during Spring Training.
With blockbuster pitcher deals coming from every direction in the last two years, his price keeps rising.
Currently in the final of a six year/$59.4 million dollar deal, Wainwright's best career shot at a huge payday is just around the corner.
Wainwright has played for a very reasonable salary for the Cardinals for six years. While he may very well sign below market value, the Cardinals are going to have to pony up far more than they have ever paid a pitcher (and possibly a player) to keep him in St. Louis.
They seem to have a high value on him both as a player and as a positive member of the clubhouse, so there is little doubt both sides would like to reach a mutually beneficial deal.

The Buzz
Need-to-know news
Doing a deal
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton declared that she was "very proud" of U.S. involvement in a power-sharing deal signed by ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya and interim leader Roberto Micheletti on Oct. 29. With national elections scheduled for Nov. 29, the agreement remained shaky, and critics warned it could undercut the democratic principles Obama administration officials say they are upholding.
U.S. officials played a key role in the deal that would return Zelaya to power until his term expires in January, but under one substantial condition: approval from the Honduran Supreme Court and Congress that ousted the leader in June. (Both bodies said the president was attempting to circumvent the constitution to serve more than one term.) Both Zelaya and Micheletti belong to the Liberal Party, with members split over whether to support Zelaya's return. Getting Micheletti to sign the agreement hinged on a golden carrot: The U.S. and international community would recognize the outcome of Nov. 29 elections, a crucial dynamic for the country's stability. But critics say the United States should recognize the elections regardless of Zelaya's status. Even if the legislature agrees to Zelaya's reinstatement, it's not clear how the agreement will unfold. If Zelaya returns to power, he's unlikely to have time to push for a constitutional revision for a run at another term.
President Obama fulfilled a promise from the early days of his presidency by lifting a ban on HIV-positive visitors traveling to the United States, a move welcomed by Democrats and Republicans. "We talk about reducing the stigma of this disease, yet we've treated a visitor living with it as a threat," the president said. The decision to introduce the ban in 1987, he said, was "rooted in fear rather than fact."
The ban originated as an executive order under President Ronald Reagan and then became law through an amendment by Republican Sen. Jesse Helms. President Bush took the first step toward lifting the ban in 2008 by removing it from immigration regulations, while Obama lifted the ban that still stood in health regulations. "Canceling the ban on HIV-infected people coming to this country is clearly correct and long overdue. It was very unfortunate to have been discriminating against people based on HIV status," David Thomas, head of the division of infectious diseases at Johns Hopkins University, told WORLD.
In harm's way
When two massive explosions ripped through three government buildings in Baghdad on Oct. 25, killing more than 150 and wounding at least 600, soft targets suffered too.
St. George's Anglican Church, restored and reopened shortly after the U.S. invasion, was heavily damaged, perhaps beyond repair. "Christians do have it hard," said pastor Canon Andrew White, noting that the church has endured repeated bombings and attacks ("Soft targets," Jan. 26, 2008). Last year 93 members of the church were killed, including 11 of 13 converts he baptized, said White. But there was some good news: The October bombing took place at 10:30 in the morning, not during afternoon services when about 500 Iraqis would have been attending.
Applicable app
In the crowded field of new iPhone applications comes one perhaps more applicable than Tap Tap Revenge or even Weather Channel Max: Logos Bible provides up to 30 leading Bible translations at a touch, as well as Greek and Hebrew lexicons. The free application also allows comparison of various translations of all books of the Old and New Testament.
Maine stand
Traditional marriage advocates won a victory in Maine when voters approved a referendum to overturn Maine's law legalizing same-sex marriage. Gay marriage has now failed every time it has been put to a popular vote, and the five states legalizing it-Iowa, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Connecticut-have done so through legislation or court order. The National Organization for Marriage contributed $1.8 million to the Stand for Marriage Maine campaign, and executive director Brian Brown told reporters the vote proves "marriage is a winning issue."
Honor and horror
U.S. officials marked Veterans Day in part by hosting the first-ever mental health summit to draw attention to the acute need faced by returning soldiers now serving in the nation's longest wars, often punctuated by random bombings that maim soldiers and civilians, including children. Defense secretary Robert Gates, in a keynote address Oct. 26, criticized a government and military bureaucracy that is "frustrating, adversarial and unnecessarily complex" for addressing post-traumatic stress and other syndromes. He cited a Rand study last year that said the number of veterans affected by these mental health problems could top 600,000.
Burma villages attacked
On Oct. 7 a Burmese army unit shot and wounded Karen villagers in Nya Mu Ki, including a pastor named Baw Pae. A day later the army attacked another village, burning down houses, and in subsequent days attacked multiple villages in the area, sending thousands of Karen, who are predominantly Christian and have historically mounted a movement for independence from Burma's ruling junta, into hiding in nearby jungles. Schools in the area are closed and food and medicine are scarce, according to a watchdog team from Free Burma Rangers that visited last month. Rice paddies have been destroyed by flooding since August, and more recently by an infestation of rats.
Blockbusters need not apply
Remember Iraq? Now it's the other war, but film critics haven't forgotten. In early polling by The Los Angeles Times of 16 leading film critics, The Hurt Locker was one of two films to receive nods from all 16 as most likely to garner a Best Picture nomination in upcoming Oscars. The film, which follows the work of a U.S. bomb disposal squad in central Iraq, was never released widely and stars no name actors (Ralph Fiennes and Guy Pearce have small cameos). Invictus, the other film to draw best odds from the critics, is a look at Nelson Mandela's quest for the World Cup in post-apartheid South Africa. Directed by Clint Eastwood, it's not due in theaters until next month.
But what about those jobs?
A White House report Oct. 30 acknowledged that some jobs created by the $787 billion stimulus program were overcounted, but stood by a claim of 640,000 jobs created.
Observers continue to find big questions with the numbers. In a sample of the 9,000 federal contracts under the stimulus program, the Associated Press found errors in one in six jobs credited to stimulus spending-or 5,000 of the 30,000 jobs it examined. At Southwest Georgia Community Action Council, officials claim to have saved 935 jobs-but only 508 people work there. In another, a Colorado business claimed that its stimulus contract created more than 4,200 jobs. But the review found that the firm hired most of them for five weeks or less. According to Onvia (recovery.org), only 5 percent of jobs reported are for contracts actually awarded-meaning only 31,080 actual jobs thus far. Obama officials have said the stimulus would create or save 3.5 million jobs by the end of next year.
Hate crimes
President Obama on Oct. 28 signed into law the defense spending bill, which contained sweeping new hate crimes legislation. Controversy ensued when the hate crimes legislation became tied to the $680 billion defense spending bill, forcing lawmakers to choose between supporting the nation's troops or their belief that the hate crimes act could interfere with the freedom of religious beliefs. The law expands the federal definition of hate crimes to include those motivated by gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, and disability; it was pushed by an alliance of Jewish and gay-activist groups.
Receding recession
The Commerce Department's Oct. 29 report that U.S. GDP rose at an annual rate of 3.5 percent in the third quarter signaled an end to the recession that saw four quarters of U.S. economic decline. Arriving on the 80th anniversary of the stock market crash that triggered the Great Depression, the good news was the best indication yet that the longest recession since then has ended. Even business investment and real fixed residential housing investment (for the first time in 14 quarters) rose. But the third-quarter improvement was fueled overwhelmingly by consumer spending, much of it driven by stimulus programs. More than 1 percentage point of GDP growth in the third quarter came from car sales, driven by the temporary "cash for clunkers" program. But after spiking in July and August, retail car sales dropped 10.4 percent in September, once the program ended. For recovery to continue, said former Clinton adviser William Galston, "within two years at most, the private economy will have to wean itself off public stimulants and find its own internal sources of energy." Excessive consumer debt, high unemployment, and the likelihood of rising taxes all mean that the good news may not feel good for awhile.
Who's counting?
The Census Bureau will be sending temporary workers to the homes of Americans next year to gather personal information, and lawmakers want to make sure none of those workers are criminals. An Oct. 7 GAO report found that a flawed fingerprinting system may have led the bureau to hire up to 200 workers with criminal records. Four congressmen-Reps. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah., Patrick T. McHenry, R-N.C., John Mica, R-Fla., and Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga.-wrote an Oct. 26 letter to Census Bureau director Robert Groves asking for his "commitment in writing" that nobody with a criminal record would serve as an enumerator, which not only would undermine public confidence in the census, but "the safety and security of Americans in their own homes are at stake."
Flying high
In what NASA billed as the first step in returning astronauts to the moon, the agency on Oct. 28 successfully launched the Ares I-X rocket at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla. The $445 million sub-orbital flight went 25 miles high and lasted two minutes before the rocket's booster headed for the Atlantic Ocean with its hundreds of sensors full of data for NASA to analyze. The only complication for the unmanned flight was bad weather, with more than 150 lightning strikes near the launch pad the night before causing a delay. But the first step in returning to the moon may also be the last step. The Obama administration is reportedly considering scrapping manned missions and sending NASA in a different direction.

The Delaware Division of Public Health (DPH) reminds Delawareans of the importance of completely cleaning and drying any home or business hit by excessive rain or flood waters to prevent mold.
Here is the list of tips to fight mold following flooding:
- Remove standing water through water pumps and fans.
- Remove damaged or moldy materials (as a general rule, wallboard, carpet, furniture, etc. that has been wet for more than 48 hours should be considered for removal and replacement.)
- Use dehumidifiers to remove moisture that has soaked into building materials and furnishings that are otherwise intact.
- Do not depend only on sight or smell to determine if all mold is gone. A hygrometer (which measures moisture in the air) is an important tool to determine when drying is complete. Hygrometers can be purchased at hardware stores or on-line, and can be found for a little as $5.00 - $10.00.
- After the recovery from an event is complete, routine maintenance such as sealing foundation cracks and other water intrusion points is vital, plus monitoring/maintaining humidity between 35-55 percent as measured by the hygrometer. Even the regular cleaning and maintenance of the HVAC system can help prevent future mold problems.
For fact sheets on flood preparedness and recovery, visit the DPH website at: www.dhss.delaware.gov/dhss/dph/floodhealthinfo.html or call (302) 744-4859.

Aquatic and semi-aquatic turtles should be housed in long, low aquariums that allow them plenty of room to swim, bask, and move around. The size of the aquarium will be dependent on the size of the turtle, and you should always purchase with consideration to how big the turtle will be when it is full grown. Turtles must have a carapace length of 4" to be sold in pet stores, but some can grow as big as 12" in diameter. One to two small turtles can fit in a 20 gallon aquarium, but a turtle that has a carapace length of 8" will need at least a 20 gallon aquarium to itself, and most adults will need an aquarium that is larger than 20 gallons. If you own multiple turtles, each additional turtle will require, at the least, an additional 10 gallons worth of space. Use a wide-spaced mesh lid to provide proper ventilation and allow UVB light through.
The aquarium should be divided into a land area and a water area. The ratio of water to land will depend on the species. The majority of semi-aquatic turtles will need no more than 50% of the aquarium dedicated to a water area. Most aquatic turtles will need the majority of the aquarium devoted to a water area, with no more than 25% of the aquarium dedicated to a land area. The water should be deeper than the turtle's shell is wide, so that the turtle can be completely submerged and swim freely. You will need to use a filter to keep the water clean.
The land area will be used for basking, and it can be made from aquarium gravel, soil, or sand. Again, which substrate is best will depend on the specific needs of the species that you are keeping. Land areas can also be created using a large dock or ramp or some smooth rocks, slate, or driftwood that stick out of the water. The basking area should slope gently down into the water to ensure that the turtles are easily able to climb out of the water and onto land.
The size of the basking area will depend on the size of the turtle, the species, and how many turtles are in the terrarium. Larger turtles will need a larger basking area, and aquariums housing multiple turtles must have a basking area large enough to accommodate all the turtles at once. Additionally, some semi-aquatic turtles, like red-eared sliders, are more terrestrial than others, and they will need a larger land area to move around on.
Substrate such as gravel or sand can be used in the water area, but it is not recommended as it will make it more difficult to clean the enclosure and maintain cleanliness. If you wish to use a substrate, select a substrate that won't be easily ingested by your turtle, to help prevent possible impaction.
Semi-aquatic and aquatic turtles generally do not need many landscaping items in their aquarium, but such items can be used to make them feel safe when they are on land and to make the environment more natural. You can use logs and terrestrial plants to provide them with a sense of security. Aquatic plants can also be used in the water areas to provide hiding places and improve or sustain the quality of the water. Worn driftwood or smooth flat rocks can be placed in the basking area. You can also place a wooden enclosure in the basking area if it is large enough to provide your turtle with a hide spot.
It is important to note that many turtles will eat plants, so we recommend that you use a combination of real and artificial plants to cut down on excess waste. Using only real plants works best if you have a very large habitat for your turtles. Using only artificial plants or a combination of real and artificial is better for smaller habitats. If you see that your turtles are frequently nibbling on the artificial plants, remove them from the habitat and replace them with real plants. When using real plants, choose carefully - by researching the plant or consulting a veterinarian - as some plants can be toxic to turtles.
There are two temperatures that are important in a semi-aquatic or aquatic turtle's habitat: the temperature of the water and the temperature of the basking area. The water temperature should be approximately 78°F, though it can vary slightly by species. You can maintain this temperature by using submersible aquarium heaters.
The temperature of the basking area should be approximately 80° to 85°F. This can be achieved with the use of overhead basking lamps with heat bulbs.
Use a thermometer to monitor temperatures to avoid over- or under-heating your turtle's habitat. Improper temperatures can result in a lack of appetite, illness, and even premature death.
Semi-aquatic and aquatic turtles need full spectrum light, so you must use both UVA and UVB bulbs in the tank. UVA light encourages proper activity levels, appetite, and breeding. UVB light contributes to Vitamin D3 production and simulates their natural environment, decreasing stress. UVB heat lamps should provide the main lighting, and basking heat lamps should be used in the basking area.
We recommend the use of a timer to achieve natural light cycles. Most semi-aquatic and aquatic turtles need a natural light cycle of 12 to 14 hours of light followed by 10 to 12 hours of darkness. The length of the light period should be longer in the summer and shorter in the winter.
Humidity needs vary widely by species. The more terrestrial turtles will need a lower humidity, while those who spend more time in the water will need a higher humidity. Speak with your veterinarian about what the proper humidity levels are for your turtle, and monitor levels with a hygrometer.
The substrate you use in the basking area will contribute to the humidity levels, so turtles that require less humidity should have drier substrate such as sand and dry mulch in their habitats, while turtles that need more humidity can use moister substrates such as damp mulch, soil, sphagnum moss, or peat moss.
Cleaning & Filtration
Turtles produce a good deal of waste, so a filter is an absolute necessity to keep the water clean. Without a filter, you'd have to do water changes almost daily, and proper filtration ensures that your turtle's habitat will stay as clean, safe, and sanitary as possible between water changes.
There are a number of filters that you can choose from. We recommend that you use a larger filter, such as a canister filter, that will not be easily clogged by your turtle's solid waste. While canister filters are more expensive, they are a worthwhile investment that will decrease the amount of work you have to do, keep your turtle's habitat cleaner, and keep your turtle healthier. Whether or not you opt to use a canister filter, remember that the bigger the filter, the more effective it will be, and the less you will have to clean. If you decide to use an internal filter instead, consider using two, rather than just one, for cleaner, healthier water. No matter what filter you choose, always remember to change the filter media regularly to optimize your filter's performance.
How often you will have to clean the water in your aquatic turtle's tank will depend on a number of considerations. These include how big the tank is, how effective your filtration system is, and the number and size of the turtles in the tank. Another factor that you may not have considered is how you feed your turtle. Be careful not to overfeed your turtle, as this will create excess waste, and always remove uneaten food to prevent it from fouling the water.
We recommend performing large water changes at least every two weeks, replacing with water of the same temperature. The exact water change schedule should be based on the above factors. If you are unsure of when you should clean the aquarium, consult your veterinarian.
Always wash your hands thoroughly after washing the tank or handling any of the accessories to prevent possible transmission of salmonella.
Housing Multiple Turtles
You can house more than one turtle if you choose to. However, always remember that the 4" turtles you are bringing home can grow to have a carapace length of 8", 10", or even 12", and the size of the enclosure will need to be large enough to accommodate their adult size. One large semi-aquatic or aquatic turtle can require a 30 or 40 gallon aquarium, and multiple turtles will need an aquarium larger than that. Increased size will also entail higher setup and maintenance costs. Carefully consider whether or not you have the room or the finances for a multiple turtle aquarium before purchasing additional turtles.

That would be 16% of the tags to nonresidents - down from the current 22%, but up from the proposed 10% total. So for you DIY guys, you might end up getting 6% rather than the proposed 2%.

(Sports Network) - The Colorado Avalanche will try to get back in the win
column on Monday when they visit the Edmonton Oilers for a Northwest Division
clash at Rexall Place.
The Avalanche had won two straight games before beginning a four-game road
trip with a 4-0 setback in San Jose. The Sharks scored twice in the first
period and added two more goals in the second to earn Saturday's easy victory
at HP Pavilion.
Colorado allowed the Sharks to score three times on six opportunities with the
man advantage. Prior to Saturday's game, the Avs had killed off 15-of-17
penalties this season.
"We have to do a better job of staying out of the box," said Colorado head
coach Joe Sacco. "Those two power-play goals in the first period were big and
then we gave them more minors to work with. You can't win when you're playing
short-handed all the time."
Semyon Varlamov was tagged for all four goals on 26 shots for the Avalanche
and was pulled after two periods. Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped all 17 shots
he faced in the third.
The Avalanche received a scare when captain Gabriel Landeskog was forced to
leave Saturday's game after absorbing a big check from San Jose's Brad Stuart
late in the first period. Fortunately, Landeskog returned to the ice in the
second period and appeared to be okay.
Landeskog, who won the Calder Memorial Trophy as the league's top rookie last
season, has one goal on the season.
Colorado is 0-2-0 on the road this season after going 19-18-4 as the guest in
2011-12. The Avs will also visit Vancouver and Calgary during their current
road trip.
The Oilers have alternated wins and losses over their first four games of the
season and the club is coming off Saturday's setback in Calgary. The 4-3
decision was the first win of the season for the Flames.
Rookie Justin Schultz recorded a goal and two assists for Edmonton, while
Devan Dubnyk stopped 31 shots.
"As much as the effort was there in many situations, we deserted too much of
our principles," said Oilers head coach Ralph Krueger.
The loss was a letdown after Thursday's thrilling 2-1 victory over the
visiting Los Angeles Kings. Edmonton's Nail Yakupov scored with 4.7 seconds
remaining in regulation to send that game to overtime, where Sam Gagner won it
after converting a pass from Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
The Oilers and Avs split six meetings in 2011-12 and each club has five wins
over the last 10 encounters. Colorado has won in three of its last five trips
to Edmonton.
