Top 25 Rdp: 'Canes give ACC another win over SEC
Miami made it two big victories for the Atlantic Coast Conference against the Southeastern Conference in the first two weeks of the college football season.
The Hurricanes beat mistake-prone No. 12 Florida 21-16 on Saturday. Add that to Clemson's victory against Georgia and the ACC can come away feeling good about its early season showing against the league that has won the last seven national championships.
Ultimately, it was a split of four spotlight matchups. No. 1 Alabama beat Virginia Tech handily and South Carolina whipped North Carolina in the opening weekend of the season.
But considering all the grief the ACC generally takes for not being able to stand up to the mighty SEC, .500 is looking solid.
"How about that ACC? Spunky little old league?" Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said after his Tigers had an easy follow-up victory against South Carolina State on Saturday.
Miami needed a lot of help from Florida.
The Gators had five turnovers and numerous empty trips to the red zone. Florida outgained Miami 413-212, but Stephen Morris threw a couple of TD passes and the Hurricanes held on.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) - De'Anthony Thomas ran for 124 yards and three touchdowns, Marcus Mariota threw for two touchdowns and ran 71 yards for another score, and Oregon started fast and completely manhandled Virginia.
The Ducks (2-0), who gained a school-record 772 yards last week in beating Nicholls State, looked capable of doing it again against a Virginia defense that hoped to keep the Cavaliers in the game. Oregon finished with 557 yards and did all its scoring while possessing the ball for just 21:25.
Virginia (1-1) got an early look at what it was up against as Mariota dropped back on a third-and-5 on the opening series, then bolted up the middle untouched, going 71 yards for a touchdown.
After 1:51, the Ducks were on their way to their 16th consecutive victory on their opponent's field, the longest streak in the country.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Kenny Guiton took over when Braxton Miller left with a sprained left knee, running for one touchdown and passing for two while leading Ohio State over San Diego State.
Miller watched the last three quarters from the sideline after being sandwiched between two tacklers on the Buckeyes' seventh offensive play. The Buckeyes (2-0) didn't need him.
Guiton, who helped save Ohio State's 12-0 season a year ago, had the most playing time he's ever had in a game. He set career bests with 19 of 28 passing for 152 yards and 83 rushing yards.
It was another disappointing outing for the Aztecs (0-2), who lost 40-19 to FCS Eastern Illinois at home in their opener.
Guiton came in having completed 14 of 25 passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions in his 16 career games. He had totaled 59 yards rushing on 14 attempts.
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) - Tajh Boyd ran for a touchdown and Clemson returned two interceptions for scores for the first time in program history in a win over FCS opponent South Carolina State.
Boyd finished 14-of-23 passing for 169 yards after accounting for five TDs a week ago and becoming a prime Heisman Trophy contender as the Tigers (2-0) defeated No. 11 Georgia 38-35.
In this one, Boyd scored Clemson's first touchdown and played only a half against the Bulldogs (0-2) before finding a spot on the Death Valley sidelines next to offensive coordinator Chad Morris. That was more than enough, though, for Clemson to move to 27-0 all-time against FCS teams.

brisket temp when done

You took your briskets out way too early. No brisket could be done at 145, and if your probe went in like butter, you must have been in the fat line between the flat and the brisket. Stacking the briskets is also not a good idea. Always make sure there is space all the way around each brisket so the heat and smoke can penetrate evenly. As far as the date on the brisket, that shouldn't have anything to do with yours being tough. If anything, it would only make it more tender, right up to the time it goes bad. And that you would smell right away when you unwrapped it. I wet age mine for 40 days in the cryovac at 36 degrees.
Every brisket is different, so there is no exact temperature that says it's done. Almost every pork butt will slice well at 185 and pull well at 195, but for brisket you have to rely more on feel. In any case, every brisket I've cooked (at least a hundred) was done at some temperature between 195 and 205 in the middle of the flat. I cook at 250. Guys using the high heat method might have to get the temp a little higher and guys cooking at lower temperature might get it done at a lower temperature, but NEVER below 185. We're not talking about a steak here, we're talking about brisket. It takes time and temperature to get that thing tender.
The main thing to remember about BBQ, but especially brisket, is "It's done when it's done."

Was the 'failure' of the League of Nations inevitable? Was any general collective security system, under which many states unite their efforts to control any state anywhere which breaks the peace, bound to be an impracticable enterprise?
Professor Northedge, who completed the manuscript of this study only a few months before his sudden death in March 1985 which so shocked his colleagues and many friends throughout the world, concludes, perhaps somewhat reluctantly, that it was. In a brilliant analysis of the pre-1914 international system 'The World before the League' he looks back rather nostalgically to an era in which traditional balance-of-power practices made the use of force more tolerated but more limited. Practices such as these were, in his mind, more in 'accord with the psychology of those who have to operate them' than experiments for the collective maintenance of peace as embodied in the Covenant or the Charter of the United Nations. This is Northedge, the perceptive political analyst of The International Political System ( 1976) and the enthralling lecturer on the Psychological Aspects of International Relations. For him, pacifist though he was, the traditional international political system based upon the balance of power 'has its faults, but it may have fewer faults than any alternative upon which the world could agree' ( 1976, p. 323).
In the very nearly 40 years which Fred Northedge spent in the Department of International Relations at LSE, first as a student, then as Lecturer and from 1968 as Professor, he never substantially shifted from this position. It was a position rooted in the historical perspective from which he viewed international relations and reflected in his impressive volume on British foreign

Police: West Rutland car fire was intentionalJuly 02,2013Police: Westside fire was arson
WEST RUTLAND A fire that destroyed a vehicle on Pleasant Street early Monday morning was intentionally set, according to Vermont State Police.
Firefighters were called at 4:15 a.m. to 435 Pleasant St. Monday for a report of a car that was enveloped in flames. The fire was eventually doused but not before the vehicle was completely destroyed, police said.

My openstack instances can access the internet and see each other [within the 192 network] However they cannot access anything within the 10.10.13.xx netowrk. They have a floating IP which gives them an identity on the 10.10.13.xxx network [which is needed].
Is there a way that they can see and route to the items in the 10.10.13 network?

OKC Thunder notebook: Thunder will use a zone defense this season
Much of the talk immediately after the Thunder's loss to Miami in the Finals centered on plans to integrate a zone defense this preseason.
But with the seven-game exhibition schedule complete, and the season opener less than a week away, the Thunder still hasn't shown any signs of adding the defensive scheme. Thunder coach Scott Brooks, however, said there's still time.
"We still have six days of training camp," Brooks said Friday.
A zone, many believe, would have been beneficial against the Heat. But even when the strategy is put in, Brooks said he will not be reliant on it.
"We will spend a fair amount of time (on it), but we're not going to spend a lot of time because that's not going to be a staple," Brooks said. "It's going to be something that we will throw out there as a change of pace, just a wrinkle that we will throw with our defense. But we are a man-to-man (defensive team). When we play our best man-to-man we're really playing a good zone. But we will definitely tinker in some zone this year."
Kevin Durant finished the preseason with 21 assists against seven turnovers.
While those stats are in no way the assist-to-turnover rate anyone should expect from Durant this season, they do provide a glimpse into how he has improved as a playmaker and perhaps foreshadow what might be in store this season.
"I hope so," Durant said. "I just got to be more patient and make the right plays. So we'll see."
In his previous five seasons, Durant has never finished with more assists than turnovers. For his career, he has 1,073 assists and 1,194 turnovers.
Brooks on Friday joked that the layoff between the preseason finale and the regular season opener feels like a second training camp. But the goal is to use the time wisely. For the Thunder, that means focusing on fundamentals.
"We have a mindset that we have to approach each day with, and that is play with great effort, play with the fundamentals and also play with toughness," Brooks said. "When we do those three things we see a big improvement every day. That's always been our focus.
"Going into this stretch of days that we have, we'll add a few more things going into the start of the season. And then we'll have plenty of time during the season to add a thing or two here or there."
No training camp invitees were waived Friday, but Brooks said the roster will be trimmed to the league-maximum 15 players soon.
Only one player between DeAndre Liggins, Daniel Orton, Hollis Thompson and Andy Rautins will make the final roster.
"We'll make that decision in the next day or two," Brooks said. "Like I've said all along, all of them have done very well. They've put themselves in a good position. Obviously we can't keep them all. That's going to be a tough decision. But that's going to happen soon."
If you include Saturday, the Thunder has just five days to come to terms on a contract extension with James Harden before Wednesday's deadline. One reason for optimism is the Thunder's track record of getting deals done under the gun. Last year, Russell Westbrook signed his extension six days before the deadline. In 2009, Thabo Sefolosha inked a four-year deal just three days before the deadline. … A photography crew from The New York Times Magazine attended practice Friday. The crew had a shoot scheduled with seven players to run with a feature in the magazine that is expected to be out in early November. … Nike will make official merchandise of Durant available in December. The clothing and apparel line is expected to include T-shirts, hats and backpacks among other things marked with his signature "KD" logo.


text: I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab 7, and I am from Kerala, India. This phone is really has good looks and features. But, coming to the problem that I have with this phone, I was using this phone with a Tata Docomo 3G sim, and I was not having any problem when I was browsing internet at that time. But, last week I changed my sim with a Airtel, because I was having some coverage problems with Tata Docomo. But now the problem is that I cannot browse internet via the browser of my Samsung Galaxy Tab, as when I try to do so then I get an error saying page not found. I dont have any problem while browsing with any other browser like Opera and I can even view the YouTube, so I dont think that the problem can be caused by the network coverage of this sim card. I am not able to understand what has caused this problem. If any of you have any idea about, this then please reply.

Now you can hit the beach or show off that strapless gown with the help of Maximum Strength PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash for your face, chest, and back. Made with the highest strength of Benzoyl Peroxide available without a prescription, the rich, elegant lather of PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash gently removes dirt and excess oil to cleanse and unclog pores.
love this product soo much, and i cant find it anywhere but this online store, sooo upset they dont sell it anymore, i had to switch to another product and its not near as good as this one :(:(
I have been using this product for several years now. I initially started using this product because my skin was always bumpy. I didn't suffer from acne but I had a lot of pimples and very oily skin. I read somewhere that to treat unclear skin, benzoyl peroxide is the active ingredient to look for. So I started with a facial wash that had a small percentage and it worked slightly but not completely. I stumbled upon this product at a local grocery store and found it to be 10% benzoyl peroxide, which is the strongest you can buy without a prescription. I hesitated based on the cost, but took the risk. It worked fabulously! I have been using it ever since and have no complaints. On occasion, I have run out and the store I buy it from doesn't have it in stock so I am forced to use an alternative. Immediately, my skin breaks out in bumps again. So I have learned never to run out! I would highly recommend this product to anyone struggling with a bumpy complexion. I believe it will even clear acne, too.
Wet area to be cleansed. Apply acne wash and gently massage area for 1-2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Start with 1 application daily, then gradually increase to 2 or 3 times daily if needed.
This product can be shipped to any country to which SkinStore currently ships.

We are pleased to jointly announce the launch of the sixth call for proposals under this initiative.
The Wellcome Trust, the UK Medical Research Council (MRC) and the UK Department for International Development are committed to strengthening the evidence base for improving health in low- and middle-income countries. Together we are investing a total of £20 million for the sixth call of this initiative to fund late-stage trials of interventions that will help improve health in these countries, by addressing the major causes of mortality and morbidity.
The scheme is primarily focused on late-stage (equivalent to phase III/IV) clinical and health intervention trials evaluating efficacy and effectiveness.
However, we may consider Phase IIb trials of major relevance to the objectives of the call. If you are considering submitting a Phase IIb stage trial, please consult one of the partner agencies involved for further guidance.
The scheme is aimed at funding Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs), although other types of methodologies may be used alongside the RCT to explore implementation and operational issues.
The scope of the scheme includes, but is not limited to, behavioural interventions, complex interventions, disease management, drugs, vaccines, and hygiene and diagnostic strategies.
The scheme is open to the best proposals addressing any major health related problem affecting low- and middle-income countries that are likely to produce implementable results, particularly those that affect the most vulnerable populations.
Funding for preliminary studies
In addition to full applications in this call we will also be offering a second application type: trial development grants.
The scheme remains primarily a mechanism to support full trials. However, we recognise that preliminary work is often needed in order for applicants to develop innovative partnerships and trial proposals.
The aims of a trial development grant must be to address questions which need to be answered before a credible, competitive, full trial can be designed.
You can read more about this scheme on the MRC website.
What's included
A total of up to £20 million pounds is available. Depending on the range of proposals received, around £1.5 million of this amount is expected to be spent on trial development grants, and this amount is also expected fund several awards.
Support may be requested for:
- all research costs that are attributable to the trial
- the cost of hosting trial steering and data monitoring committees
- training and support for a trial manager.
The MRC website has more information about the support on offer.
Trials should be based in low- or middle-income countries. Academic groups based either in the countries where the studies will take place or based in the UK are eligible to apply.
Please refer to the MRC website for more information on the eligibility criteria.
Application process
Applications should be submitted to and will be processed by the MRC on behalf of the three partner agencies.
There are two application types:
1. Outline proposals for a global health trial research grant (two-stage application process)
2. Trial development grant proposals (one-stage application process).
Please see the Guidance document on the MRC website for further information on applying through either route.
The MRC must receive your outline proposal by 16:00 British Summer Time (BST) on Thursday 10 September 2015.
For more information on the key issues your proposal should address, details of the funding on offer and application and eligibility criteria, visit the Medical Research Council website or email email@example.com.
This is an annual competition.
- Outline application deadline: 16:00 BST Thursday 10 September 2015
- Full application deadline: February 2016
- Decisions: 16-17 May 2016.
Please email any questions to Mandy Brown at the MRC.

The River Shannon is the largest river in Ireland. It rises in County Cavan and flows for 260km before entering the Shannon Estuary at Limerick City. The Shannon Estuary itself forms the largest estuarine complex in Ireland covering an area of 500km2 of navigable water and extending for 100km from Limerick City to Loop Head in County Clare. The estuary is Ireland's premier deepwater port, routinely catering for ships up to 200,000 deadweight tonnage, while Shannon Airport is a dedicated fuel terminal. Shannon Airport and the Gateway town of Shannon are located along the Estuary to the north, while Limerick City and the port of Foynes are located in the southern part of the estuary.
The estuary area is a multi-functional zone, with the waters and adjoining lands supporting a range of functions, uses and activities. Most notable are:
- Shipping/Port functions
- Marine related Industry/Industry
- Fishing/Aquaculture
- Marine Tourism, Leisure and Recreation
- Energy generation
- Fuel Storage
- Aviation
- Heritage and Landscape
- Valuable Habitats and Species
With its deep sheltered waters the estuary is therefore comparable to many of the major European estuarial ports. Foynes Port has been identified as a Category A Seaport in the E.U. (TEN-T) Trans European Transport Network. The estuary adjoins the Local Authorities of Clare County Council, Limerick City and County Council and Kerry County Council, who coordinate and control land-use planning and development on its landward sides. The marine aspects of the estuary are directed and controlled by a variety of statutory authorities including the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government, Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
Shannon Foynes Port Company (SFPC) has statutory jurisdiction and is responsible for all commercial maritime activities on the Shannon Estuary. It is the biggest bulk port in the country and handles the largest vessels entering Irish waters with available depths of 65ft plus. The SFPC facilitates trade valued at €6 billion per annum. The port is a principal economic driver for the region currently handling in excess of 10 million tonnes per annum. The proximity to global shipping lanes and the large European market makes the estuary an ideal location for manufacturing and value-enhancing activities.
The Shannon Estuary is home to a number of large industries and employers including ESB Moneypoint, Aughinish Alumina, Tarbert Power Station, Shannon Airport and NORA Fuel Reserve. The estuary and its environment therefore encompasses many contrasting features, uses and assets, and is rich in natural resources, wildlife and ecosystems. It supports a strong local community and a great variety of economic activity. This all requires that a careful balance is struck, particularly as the entire Estuary is also designated a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) – a wildlife conservation area, considered to be important on a European as well as Irish level – under the Habitats Directive. A large part of the estuary – around the Fergus Estuary – is also designated as a Special Protection Area (SPA) – as part of a network of sites across Europe that are protected under the Birds Directive. The SIFP for the Shannon Estuary has been initiated to ensure that the full potential of the estuary can be harnessed in a sustainable manner.

Most cloud cover across the northern half of the CWA is becoming more cellular and may see some clearing by late tonight. This afternoon, southeastern ND has been clear for majority of day and full solar should increase thorugh the afternoon. SPC mesoanalysis indicating a band of 500 to 1000 J/KG mean layer CAPE along clear line with cu field to the north, extending into Valley City area. Expect that to extend into southeastern ND through the afternoon and will be best chance for convective activity late afternoon into the evening. Will keep some low POPs across north in cycloic flow associated with SFC low in SE MB, but majority of FA north of I-94 expected to be dry overnight. Will keep low POPs in NW zones as upper low moves across n central ND, but without decent heating today threat is minimal. For Friday...chances for precipitation increase tomorrow afternoon as a vort max embedded in SW flow pattern aloft lifts out of eastern SD during the mid aftn and into w central MN during the early evening. Best chances for convection will be eastern CWA in the evening hours, per preferred GFS although QPF maxima is overly bullish. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 132 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016 Saturday and Sunday...Ridging from high pressure over norther Sask/MB begins working its way into ND on Saturday, with northerly SFC flow west of the valley. Will begin lowering pops for DVL basin, trending toward dry from 06Z Sunday and through the day Sunday. NAM continues to have SCT activity across the CWA on Sat and confidence in NAM is low at this point, preferring the drier GFS. For Sunday night through Thursday...Still looking like a split flow regime near the start of the long term. As the west coast ridge builds, a low forms over Montana. This low will slowly track east through the remainder of the long term period, or right through this FA. Looking at the 12z model runs, the ECMWF remains faster than the GFS in this eastward progression. What this means is that Sunday night and Monday should mainly be dry, while Tuesday through Thursday will see fairly decent chances for rain. Correspondingly, Monday also looks to be the warmest day. With more clouds and rain, Tuesday through Thursday cool down closer to normal. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon) Issued at 1245 PM CDT Thu May 26 2016 Ceilings that were MVFR or lower this morning have quickly increased early this afternoon. Most locations are or will rise shortly into the VFR range. Could even be SCT at times, but most locations will stay BKN. A lot of the clouds are diurnal in nature, so they should decrease in coverage this evening with winds also becoming light. There may be a few showers around this afternoon, mainly around KDVL, so have included a VCSH there. Otherwise will have to see how extensive the showers become and adjust as needed. Models also show some pcpn moving up toward KFAR later tonight or Friday morning. && .FGF Watches/Warnings/Advisories... ND...None.

"We have situations where end-users go to the wireless service provider to troubleshoot connectivity issues with our network before contacting us," says Brian Kelley, the county's chief information officer. The problem is that employees aren't aware of the network's unique configuration, which means the solutions they get often don't work, he says. "Then we find ourselves arguing with the end-user over who is right—us or the service provider."
Such help-desk challenges have become a costly conundrum for companies rolling out BYOD policies. Information technology leaders want to support employees, but they don't want to dedicate valuable resources to fixing phones that freeze because of buggy game apps or trying to explain why the company email system won't work on a laptop that still runs Internet Explorer 1.0.
It's a dilemma, Kelley says. "The whole point of a BYOD policy is to provide the end-user with the technology they need to do their job, but how can you do that if you don't support it?"

[caption id="attachment_89210" align="alignnone" width="500"] Work to transform the AT&T building in downtown Santa Rosa into a modern office building is set to begin in March. (rendering courtesy of TLCD Architecture)[/caption]
SANTA ROSA -- Major renovation of the former AT&T telephone switching building in downtown Santa Rosa and American AgCredit's 120,000-square-foot new headquarters north of the city are poised to move to construction in the next month.
Together, they are set to transform the entryways to the heart of Santa Rosa and to the business parks adjacent to Charles M. Schulz--Sonoma County Airport.
Redevelopment of the vacant five-story AT&T building into a modern office building has been an economic development goal for years and in the works in fits and starts since the former city redevelopment agency bought it in 2007.
Museum on the Square, LLC, an affiliate of Santa Rosa-based developer Hugh Futrell Corp., purchased the building from the city in October for just over $1 million and is gearing up to start construction this month on the $16 million, 92,000-square-foot project. Completion is set for 2015.
"Assuming our construction loan closes in the next few days, which seems probable but is not guaranteed, we will be under construction during the next 10 days," Hugh Futrell told the Business Journal on Wednesday.
Key tenants are to be Luther Burbank Savings for headquarters in 32,000 square feet on the fourth and fifth floors, project designer TLCD Architecture in 16,000 square feet on the third floor and 12,000 square feet donated to the newly formed California Wine Museum on a level below ground. The museum reportedly is raising $2.5 million for improvements and exhibits.
Remaining to lease are 15,000 square feet of office space and 11,000 square feet of street-level restaurant space. Marketing for that is set to start when construction begins, Mr. Futrell said.
The project involves adding windows on the north and south sides of the windowless building, originally built to protect equipment inside from catastrophes as extreme as nuclear explosions. An early design called for adding five stories to the structure for housing, but that was dropped as economic conditions worsened. A plan for a glass wall on the north side reportedly was dropped late last year because the cost of glazing has spiked with a surge in Bay Area construction.Ag office center at the airport

Most big bands are started because some musician wants a bigger sound, or, to put it in a fanciful way, a bigger swing; there's no noise more joyful than 14 horns in perfect sync with one another, swinging you into bad health. But Nicholas Payton's ambition in introducing his new big band at Dizzy's this week is not to create a bigger sound but a broader one. While the band certainly swings, he is clearly much more driven by the idea of expressing himself in a much wider range of tonal colors. He doesn't have five saxophonists just for their collective volume, but because they also play clarinets, flutes and other reeds. Mr. Payton's gifts as a trumpet soloist have never been open to question, and now with this latest effort he establishes himself as a composer-arranger-maestro on par with any working today.
Mr. Payton, who at 37 is one of the youngest of the legendary line of New Orleans trumpet kings, has shown his fascination for jazz composition not only in his own tunes, but by participating in a series of albums exploring the works of top-shelf composers like Wayne Shorter ("Mysterious Shorter"), Lee Morgan ("The Sidewinder") and Louis Armstrong ("Dear Louis"). His 1997 treatment of compositions by Herbie Hancock was titled "Fingerpainting," and it's clear that the analogy to visual art is appropriate. With his 21-piece orchestra, Mr. Payton is painting not just with his fingers but with a vast array of sonic tools, including five trumpets (in addition to himself as primary soloist), four trombones and five saxes (nearly all doubling various reeds), plus bass and drums, Latin percussion, guitar, and, unexpectedly, keyboardist Lawrence Fields playing mostly Fender Rhodes organ.
Even more surprising is contralto Johnaye Kendrick, who doesn't sing anything like a conventional big-band vocal refrain all night, but who conjoins with the leader in forming a two-person vocal section; occasionally there are words, but they're generally chanted in what sounds like an African dialect, indicating that it isn't about the lyrics but the sonic quality of the two voices and they way in which they blend with the other orchestral colors. Mr. Payton "paints" in a very expansive range of hues and shades: impressionistic sounds somewhat reminiscent of Gil Evans, funky backbeat sounds that had me thinking of Duke Pearson's larger format backgrounds for various Blue Note stars of the 1960s, and an undercurrent of tropical rhythms (Cuban and Brazilian) running through all of it. (He didn't play one number that was entirely Latin, nor did he play one that was entirely non-Latin, either.)
The strength of this mostly young band (the veteran in the group is baritone saxophonist Patience Higgins) isn't its diversity, but its cohesiveness, the way these wide-ranging elements hang together. When you listen, you're not thinking about the polyculturalism of the whole thing, you're thinking how pretty it all sounds.
For all the beauty of Mr. Payton's original works, I was especially impressed with two reworkings of New Orleans-centric jazz classics (both on "Dear Louis"), including a high-octane "Potato Head Blues," wherein the potatoes have been converted into ethanol fuel for a rocket ship. He climaxed the second set with a whimsical "Tiger Rag," democratically giving the five trumpeters in his section (most noticeably the talented Bria Skonberg) a chance to step into the spotlight. Other than the brass battle, the ancient New Orleans tiger seemed to be bobbing and weaving all over the French Quarter, as if the big kitty, like everybody else in the Crescent City, had lapped up too much bourbon on Liquor Street. (Or is it the other way around?)
Ethan Iverson, Larry Grenadier, Paul Motian
The Village Vanguard
178 Seventh Ave. South, (212) 255-4037
Through Sunday
You could call this trio "the Bald Plus," since pianist Ethan Iverson and drummer Paul Motian both sport heads as clean as that of your humble columnist. Bassist Larry Grenadier, fortunately, has enough hair for everyone. Most bands led by the drummer (in his second phase of a three-week, three-ensemble Motian-a-thon at the Vanguard) favor an amorphous, somewhat rubato, out-of-time feel, whereas Mr. Iverson's usual group, the Bad Plus, tends to phrase solidly on the beat and all over it. In finding a common ground that suits them both, Messrs. Iverson and Motian have arrived at a groove that's immediately reminiscent of Thelonious Monk. It's especially apparent on standards like "It's Easy to Remember," "If I Had You," a Mozartean "Windmills of Your Mind" and "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?," in which verse and chorus follow the outline and vibe of Bing Crosby. Aided by Mr. Grenadier, they concoct a uniquely postmodern brand of lyricism.
Kurt Elling
315 W. 44th St., (212) 581-3080
Through Saturday
What do you get when you mix Allen Ginsberg with Anita O'Day, Ezio Pinza, Maynard G. Krebs, and Archbishop Fulton Sheen? The answer is Kurt Elling, a beat poet (and a recently transplanted New Yorker and Grammy winner) with chops like a Metropolitan opera baritone, time like a great drummer, and a penchant for philosophical discourse. His opening set at Birdland on Tuesday was heavily percussive; bassist Harish Raghavan and pianist (and longtime collaborator) Laurence Hobgood essentially played their instruments as if they were drums. So did Mr. Elling himself, as he simulated the sound of drumsticks whacking on his larynx and traded measures with percussionist Terreon Gully in a way that suggested a drum battle. The overwhelming spirit was that of pianist-composer Ahmad Jamal; most tunes (including some by Lennon & McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Sammy Cahn, all found on Mr. Elling's new album, "The Gate") had long rhythmic vamps running through them—in a "Poinciana" kind of way.
The Music of Kurt Weill
Rose Theater (Jazz at Lincoln Center)
Broadway at 60th Street, (212) 258-9595
Through Sunday
German composer Kurt Weill (1900-50) was profoundly influenced by American jazz, and his music, in turn, has been taken up by jazz musicians of every stripe, from Dixielanders to the avant-garde. (The spectrum of vocalists who do his songs, from opera sopranos to grunge rockers, is even wider). A full-out jazz concert of his music by Wynton Marsalis and his Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra is long overdue—yet the timing, in a season that has seen excellent productions of both "Knickerbocker Holiday" and "Lost in the Stars," is actually perfect. Guest Weill specialist Ute Lemper will presumably demonstrate a solidly traditional vocal approach to Weill's music, while the LCJO will perform jazz interpretations both old and new, surely including Gil Evans's masterpiece treatments of "My Ship" and "Bilbao Song," as well as whatever surprises they've got up their sleeve.
Fred Hersch Duos & Trio +2
Jazz Standard
116 E. 27th St., (212)-576-2232
Through Sunday
There are only a precious few top-drawer vocal accompanists out there, but what pianist Fred Hersch achieves with singers is even more rarified: He's their perfect partner. He can start a set with a singer I like, and within 60 minutes, turn that person into a singer I love through means of his sensitivity, inventiveness, harmonic and rhythmic mastery, and sheer charisma. On Tuesday night, Kate McGarry, already an A-lister, jumped into the A+ column as she and Mr. Hersch rendered a well-considered tune stack, capped by a playful, Betty Carter-esque "Girl Talk" and a thoughtful medley that combined Walt Whitman with Dimitri Tiomkin. The rest of the weekend features Mr. Hersch's five-piece trio with trumpeter Ralph Alessi and saxophonist Noah Preminger, and an equally promising duo with saxophonist Joshua Redman. As a follow-up, Mr. Hersch is participating a verbal duo—a conversation with critic Gary Giddins—on March 23 at CUNY.

"Fee war" or not, there's no denying big exchange-traded fund companies compete on cost. The rivalries are extending beyond management fees to include brokerage commissions and, more recently, the cost of index licensing. The last was near the top of the agenda at Index Universe's Inside ETFs conference, the biggest ETF event of the year, held last week in Hollywood, Fla.
Mark Wiedman, head of iShares, the largest ETF sponsor, told conference-goers that the company is reviewing its indexing contracts, a not-so-subtle shot across the industry's bow. The assertion that iShares' $591 billion in assets is nobody's cash cow follows Vanguard Group's shift of more than half a trillion dollars of mutual-fund and ETF assets away from well-known MSCI MSCI 1.1089866156787762% MSCI Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD79.32 0.87 1.1089866156787762% /Date(1464382921876-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 286477 AFTER HOURS USD79.32 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2019 P/E Ratio 35.097345132743364 Market Cap 7654538523.40637 Dividend Yield 1.1094301563287947% Rev. per Employee 396177 More quote details and news » (ticker: MSCI) benchmarks to less widely used FTSE Group and University of Chicago indexes, to keep a lid on costs. So, yes, the fee wars have become indexing wars.
For investors, the new rivalries bring trade-offs that don't come into play when ETFs simply lower their management fees. In this case, fund companies are seizing opportunities that arise from hotter competition in the indexing business. Besides the ascendant FTSE Group, there are players such as Nasdaq OMX NDAQ 0.9996924023377423% Nasdaq Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD65.67 0.65 0.9996924023377423% /Date(1464382800331-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 421061 AFTER HOURS USD65.67 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3835 P/E Ratio 20.3312693498452 Market Cap 10803699708.6823 Dividend Yield 1.9491396375818486% Rev. per Employee 901674 More quote details and news » (NDAQ) with fresh benchmark-building ambitions. Nasdaq's recent moves include launching thousands of new global benchmarks and buying a family of dividend-themed indexes. "We're already an MSCI competitor," Nasdaq OMX Group's John Jacobs told Barron's at the conference.
Fund companies have simply realized there are more indexing options to consider, and they want investors to adapt.
Take Vanguard's shift to FTSE Group and University of Chicago indexes. While the company predicts the move could save hundreds of millions of dollars over time, investors are right to focus on what it means for their investments today. By switching indexers, Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets VWO -0.02965599051008304% Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 33.71 -0.01 -0.02965599051008304% /Date(1464382800009-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 13244437 AFTER HOURS 33.71 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 5468 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 0.6763571640462771% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (VWO), one widely owned ETF, is eliminating a 15% weighting in South Korean stocks. Investors who liked that exposure have to decide whether to live with the change or alter their portfolio. FTSE's indexers consider South Korea a developed market.
"We weren't thrilled with Vanguard's decision to leave MSCI and move to FTSE," Larry Whistler, president of Nottingham Advisors, said at one of the week's discussion panels.
A buy-and-hold alternative getting more attention lately is the four-month-old iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG). The fund offers a variant on the original MSCI index, with an 0.18% expense ratio that undercuts Vanguard by a small margin, to boot.
BROKERAGES' COMMISSION-free ETF trading, which may seem a more clear-cut win for investors, also involves trade-offs. The driver is the increasingly intricate set of alliances between fund sponsors and brokerages. Fund companies footing the cost of free trading expect assets to flow in return, especially into ETFs that haven't attracted many investors. Two weeks ago, discount brokerage Charles Schwab SCHW 1.592039800995025% Charles Schwab Corp.

The CurrencyShares Singapore Dollar Trust (FXSG) is the other launch in this niche.

Kidde Takes Part In Maryland Public Service Campaign
Monday July 8th, 2013 - 11:57AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Kidde Fire Safety recently participated in a public service campaign with the Maryland State Fire Marshal's Office and other authorities to boost fire prevention and safety awareness. With the campaign, officials addressed the increase in Maryland residential fire fatalities as compared to the same time last year, and urged homeowners to replace older alarms.
To that end, a new state law aimed at reducing home fire deaths requires homes to have long-life sealed-in battery smoke alarms, effective July 1. The new law requires homeowners to replace any battery-operated smoke alarm more than 10 years old with a unit powered by a 10-year sealed-in battery. These alarms provide protection for a decade, and national fire experts, such as the National Fire Protection Association and National Association of State Fire Marshals, recommend their use.
The law also requires homeowners to ensure they have a smoke alarm installed on each floor and in each sleeping area, per NFPA recommendations. A national survey on behalf of Kidde found less than a quarter of homeowners follow this guideline, and three out of four don't know where to place alarms in their homes.
Maryland officials have teamed with Kidde on a public awareness campaign featuring local firefighters and fire service leaders. The public service announcements will run on TV and radio stations across the state and in the District of Columbia. The spots are also available on beaherosaveahero.com.
"We know that fire safety isn't at the top of everyone's minds, yet someone dies in a home fire every three hours in America. We're proud to help Maryland fire officials spread the word and remind families that a simple step like installing a smoke alarm could save lives," said Chris Rovenstine, vp/sales and marketing, Kidde.
Ten-year sealed-in battery smoke alarms, such as those in Kidde's Worry-Free line, are available at home improvement retailers and cost between $25 and $50. With no need to replace batteries, consumers will save about $40 in power cell costs over the life of one alarm, according to the company. After 10 years, the alarms will sound a warning to indicate it is time for replacement.

There are plenty of companies that still sentimentally wish they didn't need to navigate the disruption to generations of reliable retailing routine ignited so stealthily by Amazon more than 20 years ago. And there are sure to be mixed reactions among some housewares vendors and retailers to news that Amazon was anointed the 2016 HomeWorld Business Retailer of the Year.

Did you hear that Aldi is now carrying a line of Organic products – I was shopping there yesterday and was SO excited to see a LOT of organic products are very decent prices!
There was a variety of Organic Dairy Products, my favorite was the Organic Yogurt since I usually buy it for around $4.99 per 32 oz. at Price Chopper. It was actually VERY delcicious, I had some for breakfast this morning with fresh blueberries (also from Aldi), and it was fabulous!
There was also a wide variety of Organic Snack foods – many of them happened to be gluten-free which made me happy!!!! Not all the Simply Nature foods are labeled Organic so you have to make sure you are checking the labels. These chips were not organic, but were amazing and gluten-free! They even said Celiac Friendly on the package 🙂
I also found some frozen foods – pizzas, Steel Cut Oats, and microwave lunch/dinners. Some were organic and some were not, but both were labeled with they new Simply Nature label.
We also found Organic Apple juice for only $2.99 per bottle, organic fruit snacks for the kids, Organic Carrot Sticks, AND I found some Gluten-Free Chicken Nuggets! One of you told me about these, and I can't wait to try them!
I ended up buying Organic Apple juice, two pints of blueberries, four boxes of organic fruit snacks, a box of Jennie-O Turkey burgers (on special for $5.99), Gluten Free Chicken Nuggets, Organic Yogurt, Two bags of chips, and a goat cheese and cranberry cheese ball. It cost me around $40.00 which is a lot for me at Aldi, but I wanted to try everything I could 🙂
