Recent Hitachi CDS Levels

Yes, watching the CDSes on a guilty party...
If Fukushima makes into the record books as the worst nuclear disaster ever, heads WILL roll (or guts opened up with short swords).
Got popcorn?
Nope, but I will buy the mutha fuckin dip, bitchez! Japan is utterly scroomed.
It will be interesting to see if 'true' justice is served in Japan. Some of it may be done through Hari kari. Some of it may be done through the courts.
They do have the Yakuza which may make it difficult.
Something tells me a nominal fine and 'no admission of wrongdoing' will not cut it this time.
Something tells me that a reactor that worked fine for 37 years after it was repaired and still stood up to a scale 9 earthquake won't be a problem...
It's a bit late for this guy to now be raising the alam. He is complicit.
I do not think so. No one in jail for:
- BP Oil disaster
- Fin Crisis
- Nuclear Crisis
No one to be plead guilty, Big Corpos own the law via the lobbyists, expect a new law diminishing or capping Hitachi's responsibility.
I have an old Hitachi TV downstairs maybe I should set that out on the curb.
Aso Daniel son...
But which funds have the highest exposure to Hitachi?
Might you want to short that area?
Aren't these guys TBTF???
OT - Osaka exchange for Nikkie 225 futures margin is going to be upped from 270,000 yen to 960,000 yen starting March 28! Wow...
Unfortunately, the problem with that is it's the LONGS that will get Crushed. This market was Ponzillily Elevated until the Quake, then everyone said Buy the Crash.
It'll hurt the Longs more than the shorts then they'll pile on. This one isn't getting up. It's over. The young will vacate the commodity'less Rock. They're a country of assemblers.
It's OVER. However it may help some Countries Housing issues.
They're like 25 Billion $ market cap. Not even close to TBTF.
However I suggest the top Brass of HITACHI strap on a suit and some goggles and go fix that thing. Don't send any EMPLOYEES OTHER THAN YOURSELVES YOU F'N PUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSIES!!!!!!!!!!
Here's a Knife, please help yourself.
PS I double checked my comment and here's the link I was right around the number.
inverted liability matrices may be the very rookeries of clusterflocks of black swans.
this means buffet gets paid, doesn't it, tyler?
Hitachi had a good reputation. Now it is shot to Hell. Time to write off all that goodwill.
HAD is correct. THEY WERE LIVING A LIE. Does that really surprise you?
LOLLLLLLLLL YES PERFECTION! Well Done Sir/Ma'am.
That's hilarious! LOL
The perfect storm deserves the perfect response ... +9.0
"Following the just released post on the Fukushima whistleblower"
Look at the discussion from those that have some experience with stress relieving of large weldments in previous links.
I doubt that this is a big story compared to all else, hey, but that's just me. Just be careful to junk those that have ZeroKnowledge of what is really going on. Someday soon there will be a sober perspective on what is really the danger. I sure as hell will not minimize it, I am just fed up with ignorant comment on what should be the advice to those affected.
No, I will not follow the royal wedding.
Hard to believe anyone in his/her right mind would buy ANY Japanese stock right now or for foreseeable future.
1. radiation for years;
2. food;
3 young will be migrating overseas (similar to Iceland and irelend)
...and so on.
Buy USO and GLD and sleep well.
I bought USO when oil was at $30. Sold it when oil was $80. I only lost a couple thousand bucks. Great way to play the price of oil. Yes sir! Sleep Tight!
May I propose a brighter side to this?
How about if the washed out irradiated zone is rebuilt as a nice area for pensioners? They are not reproducing and having visits from their children would not expose their children to any long term gonadal danger.A slightly shortened lifespan from radioactivity in the enviornment would be a slight help for the Japanese Government Bond situation that worries so many.
The lowlands area in the two worst hit prefectures could become a haven for retirees if they are so intent on rebuilding in that area. There are newly large areas for hobby farming that have become unappealing to most under fifty years of age. If it is done properly with very low cost decent housing and apartments it wouldn't be such a big loss if a second wave hits. The radiation has not been such a big consternation for the oldsters that returned to the affected zones around the Cherobyl power station mishap. That area is now safe enough for the kids to come visit the parents if visits are curtailed to the amount of time that one usually wants to spend with mom and dad.
What do I have wrong here?
Makes sense in, say, 50 years from now.
Hey now you are talking. They always lay on the beach and burn themselves to a crisp and look like shoe leather so maybe sitting at their kitchen table eating aand burning several layers of skin off has merit.
Good thinking - you got potential son!
Or better yet you could market it to all the sleazy scumbag kids of rich parents who want their inheritance now.
The Ballad Of Nuriyama comes to mind.
what's 'gonadal danger' then?
I've seen this game before... It plays out at work all the time. Spin the wheel... Step right up! Who has the least amount of cover your ass email? Who has the least influence? Congratulations boy! You just got thrown under the bus! It had to be someone.. Better you than me!
Hitachi has formed a consortium with GE Nuclear Energy (inside GE Power Systems). Toshiba-san has gobbled up Westinghouse Nuclear from BNFL which had gobbled up C-E Nuclear Power previously. SHAW put like $1BB into the $5BB+ deal in return for piping sole source arrangement. See e.g. wiki [ed. for different roles that they have played in building each unit.]
but being wiki, the "data" are getting shoved around a bit. I'd heard previously that Daiichi-1 was the first of the technology-transfer plants to Toshiba-san. Note that both Hitachi and Toshiba have skin in the reactor design as well as the plant systems design (Architect/Engineer role).
This pattern plays out in more modern plants. KK-6 and KK-7, the first ABWRs, were also designed, fabricated, and built.

"How I Met Your Mother" main character, Ted Mosby, made no secret that he loved his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio during the show's nine seasons. Now, even though the show has ended, Ted is reacting to LeBron James decision to return to Cleveland and play for the Cavaliers, Hollywood News Daily reported on Monday, July 14.
Actor Josh Radnor took on his beloved character of Ted Mosby yet again to show fans just how Ted would have reacted to the huge news that LeBron James is coming home.
Throughout the nine seasons of CBS' hit series "How I Met Your Mother," fans watched as Ted not only searched for the love of his life, and told his future children all about it, he also referenced Cleveland, Ohio many times.
Whether he and the gang were at the Yankees/Indians game, or his high school best friend's Cleveland Browns themed wedding, or he was just portraying the pain that the rest of the real Clevelanders felt about LeBron's departure to the Miami Heat in 2010, Ted really understood the pain of the Cleveland sports fan.
It seems that if "How I Met Your Mother" were still on the air the story of LeBron James returning to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers after leaving so abruptly four years ago would have been a big on for Ted. In fact, it could have possibly even been the subject of an entire episode.
Although the show is over, Josh Radnor reprising his role for a quick, but funny, video posted exclusively to Entertainment Weekly's website, only proves that the actor will always love Ted Mosby, and carry a part of his "How I Met Your Mother" character around with him for as long as he lives.
What did you think of "How I Met Your Mother" character Ted Mosby's reaction to LeBron James' return to Cleveland?

A Cigar like craft has been sighted near the Philadelphia regional airport on the 5th of November, 2012 at 5:02 PM. This report has been obtained from a testimony included in the database of Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
In the report filed with MUFON, the witness has described the time, date and location of the sighting.
"I was driving home from work from Philadelphia, PA to New Castle, DE at about 5:02 pm on 11/5/12 when I noticed a light in the sky I was on I-95 heading south at about the Chichester Ave. exit."
He then tells us what he first thought of the object and goes on to describe its shape and colour.
"At first, I thought I was seeing an optical illusion, what looked like a break in a cloud, but it was far too uniform in shape. It was cigar shaped, bright amber and at a 45 degree angle like this: '/' "
He tells us how he reacted after he saw it, and then describes sighting more objects. He also talks about their orientation, position and colour.
"I blinked to refocus my eyes, thinking next that maybe I was seeing a shooting star or some sort of meteorite. When I looked up again I saw 3 more objects. They were all angled in the same orientation, all stationary, and with a consistent and constant light. "
After that, the witness describes the exact location and direction of these UFOs.
"I continued to watch the sky as I was driving and they did not appear to move. 3 were off to the right with the closest one at about the treeline and the other appearing further off in the distance toward the direction of the Brandywine Creek State park and seeming to be higher in the sky. The 4th was off to the left, more in the direction of the Delaware River. "
The witness then provides us a description of his journey and how he continued sighting the objects. He also tells us about how he lost sight of them in the end.
"I continued to keep my eyes on the objects as I continued on I-95 South. When I forked off onto 495 South, I began to lose sight of the objects due to my shift in direction. I thought I had lost sight of them, when I realized that there was one in the far distance. I could barely make it out. I did see distinct airplane lights flashing after seeing the objects, but since I was headed in the direction of the New Castle Airport, I figured it was a regular flight. By 5:12 pm, I had lost sight of all of the objects. "
The witness further tells us that this is the first time he had filed a UFO report, and also explains why did not take photographs.
"I am a very logical and rational person and I have NEVER had an experience so distinct as this to warrant my filing a report. I called the National UFO Reporting Center hotline about 1/2 way into the event, gave the brief description and was encouraged to file the report when I got home. Unfortunately, I was not comfortable pulling over on the freeway to take photos during rush hour traffic. "
Finally, he tells us how he came to know about MUFON.
"I was at an event about a year ago where MUFON was mentioned, and that's what triggered me to file my report here as well."
The above quotes were edited for clarity.
Diverse witnesses in Pennsylvania have reported UFO activity.

IOWA CITY, Iowa - Random thoughts for a Monday morning in the Heartland...
Fran is the Man No. 1. Asked minutes after his team's second overtime loss in four outings how far the road to the Big Ten's upper division is for the UI's men's basketball team, Iowa's first-year head coach spoke definitely: "It's not that far. We are right there. I've said that from the beginning. I've been in both places before. And I know what it's like to be at the bottom of our league and play the first place team in our league, lose on a tip in at the buzzer in overtime and miss the last shot in a one point game. I know what it's like to be in first place and struggle to beat the last place team, both at home and on the road. We're right there. We got a lot of people back. We got some good players coming. We'll be fine." I respect -- and believe in -- Fran's confidence because if the guy on top of the pyramid isn't confident, why should those who play for him or those who cheer for him be confident?
Last week we promised some photographs of the revitalization of Carver on the carverhawkeyerevitalization.com web site and they landed there Friday morning. Check 'em out when you have a chance by clicking HERE, scrolling over the "Multimedia" tab and then clicking on the "Photographs" option in the drop-down menu. As noted, we'll me making additions to this space on a regular basis until completion in late summer.
Lisa Bluder's squad has rebounded from a little skid a few weeks ago to win three straight. They'll go for No. 4 Thursday night against Illinois in the Arena. It's Senior Night so, in addition to saying farewell to Kelsey Cermak, this is the last opportunity for a fan of the UI to show their appreciation of Bluder Bunch's "Energizer Bunny" - senior Kachine Alexander. Game time is set for 7:30 p.m. Bring the family. In addition to cheering Kash and the gang, you could help the Hawkeye set a single-season attendance record.
We all know winter is a long way from over, but are you as excited as I am to see your lawn again?
Not sure if many have noticed, but the UI's men's track and field team is rippin' up the record book so far this spring season and that bodes well for an exciting 2011 Big Ten Conference Outdoor Track and Field Championship which, as I noted last week, will be staged on the UI campus in May. Here's a pair of updates on Wiz's squad: HERE and HERE.
Fran is the Man No. 2. He's fiery. He's committed. He's invested. He's - as they like to say - "all in." Many of Fran's peers are also "all in" but keep it inside, preferring to maintain a stoic courtside demeanor. If I remember correctly, Dr. Tom was that way...although he, too, had his moments. I don't mind a little courtside fire. In fact, I kind of like it.
Big Ten hoops fans will soon be converging on Indianapolis. If you are one of them or are considering making the trek, here's links to the Big Ten Tournament sites for the women's event HERE and the men's event HERE.
I was listening to the Iowa-Minnesota dual meet yesterday - a 19-12 victory by Brands' squad in its season finale - and I found myself thinking this: Is sophomore all-American Matt McDonough the most dominating student-athlete currently competing for the Hawkeyes? Yesterday's 10-3 victory over UM's Zachary Sanders pushed the Marion, Iowa native's 2011 record to 20-1 overall and a perfect 16-0 in dual meets. And, it's probably noteworthy that 11 of the wins have come via a pin. That, my friends, is a pretty salty resume. It's no surprise that the defending national champion at 125 pounds will enter the month of March - championship month for the Hawkeyes - ranked a consensus No. 1 and is one of a handful current and former Hawkeyes who may be on the mat inside Carver in April 2012 when the UI plays host for the US Olympic Trials.
It's likely that the Big Ten will announce later today that Iowa's final home game of the 2011 men's basketball season against Purdue will be played on Saturday, Mar. 5. Here's what I think about that: Clearly, Saturdays are a great day to play college basketball games. Saturday, Mar. 4, should be a great day for college basketball on Mediacom Court inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena for one very big reason...in my humble opinion: It's the last home appearance of senior Jarryd Cole. If you haven't noticed, the Kansas City native "brings it" every game and has done so since stepping on the UI campus four years ago. Fran's squad will miss Jarryd's fire and emotion and talent next year.
Speaking of "departing talent," there was a flurry of stories last week about how much talent will be leaving the Big Ten at the end of the current men's basketball season. The suggestion was that fact, perhaps, makes it a little easier for the Hawkeyes to climb the ladder. There, of course, is a little truth to that and fans like me grab onto it. Then, of course, there is the coaches' perspective which is, admittedly, a little more thoughtful: In so many words, "Yes. Everyone is losing talent. However, everyone is also bringing new talent in." This is when the conversation moves to how much game experience your team loses (and "production" in terms of points and rebounds.)
Go Hawks!

In similar style to AMD, Intel are heavily slashing prices on their Pentium range of processors to make way for the new Core 2 Duo lineup.
Reg Hardware have all the details.
Intel has taken a sharp knife to its price list, slashing what it charges for its microprocessors by up to 61 per cent as the company makes way for its Core 2 Duo desktop and mobile CPUs. The chip maker also introduced some old-style Pentium D parts.
The new Pentium Ds are the 3.4GHz 945 - a version of the existing 950 but without Virtualisation Technology. It comes in at $163, operates over an 800MHz frontside bus, has 4MB of L2 and is fabbed at 65nm. The 805 - 2.66MHz, 533MHz FSB, 2MB L2, 90nm - is introduced at $93.

A few weeks ago I upgraded to WordPress 2.7 and was immediately liking the new admin interface and all the other features. But I needed a way of tagging my pages as well as my blog entries. So I went and grabbed the Simple Tags plugin by Amaury Balmer. But for some reason it didn't seem to re-use my existing blog post tags, and its tagging interface (when editing a page) didn't seem to work as well as the blog post tagging interface that comes with WordPress.
So I decided to write my own plugin (both as a learning experience and for fun!) which would let me tag pages using the same interface as is used for tagging blog posts. And here it is: Page-Tags. It's very simple – it doesn't have any admin options to set – but it gets the job done. Simple install and activate the plugin and then try editing one of your pages. You should see a tagging box like this on the right-hand side:
This box looks and feels exactly like the one you see when you edit a blog post, and it works the same way too (it has the lookup-as-you-type feature). Additionally, when viewing the archive page for a given tag or tags you should now see the list of tagged pages as well as blog posts. You can see this in action in my tag archives.
By the way, I use the brilliant Custom Query String "Reloaded" plugin to ensure that there's no limit to the no. of posts I can display in the tag archives.

I've recently started playing Neocron, because Reakktor has just launched a new server called Titan. I'm playing with some friends, and I am making a researching alt spy to identify my unidentified tech parts.
I have noticed there are some implants that increase researching, like Advanced Nerves 3 and the like, but was wondering if there is a complete list of all implants that increase researching. I'm also wondering how much researching I will need to reliably research these parts without failing?

Don't mistake Will Smith's low-key response to the NFL's bounty allegations as any sort of acceptance.
Of course the New Orleans Saints defensive end is angry. Of course he feels he and his suspended teammates and coaches were wronged. And even though linebacker Jonathan Vilma has been the most aggressive defender in the courtroom, Smith is still optimistic that he can earn some legal victories as well, including a possible injunction to delay his looming four-game suspension.
Smith has simply decided that it won't do him any good to keep complaining about his situation and "keep all the nonsense going on."
"I don't want people to think that I'm not mad about it or disappointed. I am disappointed, and I'm frustrated about the events that took place and me being wrongfully accused of everything," said Smith, who drew a four-game suspension because, according to the league, he "assisted defensive coordinator Gregg Williams in establishing and funding" the team's pay-for-performance/bounty program in his role as a defensive captain and leader.
"The evidence is out there for people to make their own determination," Smith continued. "And the overwhelming support from other players around the league who know who I am as a person and know what type of player I am know all that stuff is nonsense. And then the only person that really matters is what the commissioner thinks is nonsense. But I just essentially have to not pay attention to it. I mean, he suspended all of us, and we took our pills and our approach and we just have to go from there."
Smith, unfortunately, is no stranger to this type of process.
He spent three years battling the NFL in the infamous StarCaps case before ultimately serving a two-game suspension to start last season for ingesting a banned diuretic that was found in the over-the-counter weight loss supplement.
Smith thought he might miss the start of the 2010 season, but he found out at the start of Week 1 that he would get to keep playing while the appeals process continued.
So he said it's easy to spend this entire preseason preparing as if he might indeed play in Week 1 against the Washington Redskins in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
"Well, it's not hard because you never know what's going to happen," Smith said. "As a professional athlete I have to be prepared for any particular situation. So not knowing if you're going to play, I try not to focus on it. I try to focus on, 'If I am playing, will I be in the best shape? Or if I'm not playing, will I make sure when I do start back I'm in top shape?' And that's the approach I've taken."
So far, the 31-year-old Smith has looked awfully good this preseason.
He sacked New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady from behind and forced a fumble in the Saints' second exhibition game. And he has consistently generated pressure from the right end of the line while being turned loose a little more often in new defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo's scheme.
Although Smith had just 6.5 sacks last year and 5.5 sacks in 2010, there is a good chance that he's got at least one more double-digit sack season left in him.
Although the Saints' young pass rushers like Junior Galette and Martez Wilson are getting more attention this offseason, Smith is still the best and most important lineman on the roster.
"I think Will is pushing the pocket this preseason in his pass rush better than he ever has," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "He's had a great offseason now. ... he's had a great preseason."
That's saying a lot for the nine-year veteran, who ranks fourth in Saints history with 61.5 sacks.
But it makes sense, since the Saints are giving all of their ends more of an opportunity to rush the passer in Spagnuolo's scheme.
In recent years, former coordinator Williams would use a lot of 3-4 alignments on passing downs, which moved the ends inside more. However, Spagnuolo prefers to keep four linemen on the field at all times, allowing his ends to attack from the edges.
"We get a lot more rushes. We've probably had more four-man rushes in these preseason games than we did all of last year, the total season," Smith said. "This scheme that we've been in the last couple years hasn't created a lot of production for defensive linemen. That's just the way the scheme was. You know, when your leading sacker was a safety (Roman Harper), that kind of tells you something.
"So now the scheme we have in revolves around the defensive line creating pressure. Playing more zone coverage, which allows us more time to rush the passer and get after it and be more productive. ... It just gives us more opportunity to get after him, and it gives us more opportunities to set up the offensive linemen and beat him on different things."
Smith, who likes to mix and match his power and athleticism as a pass rusher to keep offensive tackles off balance, said he'll play at around 275 pounds this season, the same as last year.
Smith (6 feet 3) played a bit heavier in 2010, in part to be more stout in the Saints' 3-4 schemes. But he and coaches determined that he's more effective at his current weight.
Spagnuolo said he likes how well-rounded Smith is as a pass rusher and run defender - something he values in his system.
Spagnuolo likes his linemen to be versatile. He's even cross-trained Smith at defensive tackle during a couple of practice sessions and occasionally will drop Smith in coverage to keep offenses off balance.
"He's a pro," Spagnuolo said of his early impressions of Smith. "You know, I've watched him from afar, competing against him. He's always a factor defensively, because I just think he's a complete defensive end. When I say that, in a 4-3 scheme that has to play first and second down run (situations) and the blocks he's got to face, and yet when you go to third down I still think he's an effective pass rusher.
"So to me, he's an all around 4-3 defensive end. The kind of guy you want on your team."

Hey guys, it's been a minute. We've been on a bit of a hiatus lately for a variety of reasons the most important of which is the fact that we are redesigning our website to bring you a more user-friendly and visually appealing WUOG experience. With our small staff, things like this take a significant amount of time. On top of the wait, there has been a variety of technical snafus, the most recent of which have prevented us from providing daily blog posts without jumping through a lot of hoops. Anyway, the point is, we found a work around! While we want to provide you with the absolute best experience available here, we still have agreements to fulfill and news to keep up on. So we all felt it would be best to resume daily coverage ASAP.
So yeah, beginning tomorrow we will start with daily SONG OF THE DAY coverage, weekly FEATURED ALBUM posts, as well as a variety of opinion pieces and extensive festival coverage (including Athfest!). We'll be encouraging a more open and honest writing style around here as well so some posts wont feel so cookie cutter.
It's good to be back and we're all looking forward to providing you with the best daily content we can muster up. Thanks for reading.
– Nathan Kerce, blog editor/director.

Days 1 - 3 and 9 - 10: After your airport pick-up we will bring you to the Sunset Beach Hotel for a 3 nights stay. We have selected this hotel because of its unique location. On one side the ocean with breathtaking views of the beautiful beach stretching for miles in both directions. The east side of the hotel is next to the wetlands with an abundance of colourful and tuneful birdlife waiting to be discovered. The famous Kotu bridge, the place where birding guides wait for their clients, and an excellent place for birders, is next door with many good birding sites within walking distance.
The perfect place for those who want to combine a relaxed holiday with birding. We have reserved rooms in the one storey buildings which are nicely located in the beautiful gardens. A very relaxed place to stay. Every morning after breakfast we will leave the hotel to visit one of the well known very interesting National Parks such as Tanji Bird Reserve, Abuko Nature Reserve, Brufut Woods, Bijilo Forest Park Marrakissa and so on. After lunch it is time to relax (birdlife slows down because of the high temperatures on so do we) and finally at the end of the day we go out for a birding walk.
Days 4 - 5: After breakfast we leave the Coastal Area heading inland, staying on the south side of the river. The roads are quite bad and we only can drive slowly. We will have many birding stops along the road. Our lunch today will be in a "picturesque restaurant" on the river bank. In the early afternoon we will arrive at Tendaba Camp for a 2 nights stay. The camp at Tendaba is located on the river-side in the Kiang Central district about 100 km upriver from the capital of Banjul. It was built in the 1970s as a hunting lodge but now attracts mostly birdwatchers and naturalists. It can be reached by road on the south bank to Kwinella Village which is approximately 145 km from Serrekunda.
The area is characterized by a broad tidal river bed, savannah swamp and mangroves. It is a well established tourist destination for short excursions away from the Atlantic resorts of Kololi and is ideal for eco-tourists interested in both wildlife and birds as it is right on the riverside and is very close to Kiang West National Park. Bird species include the sacred ibis, marabou storks, blue-breasted kingfisher and herons. The camp itself is very basic. Most of the day there is no electricity (means no water too) and thanks to the warm climate the cold showers are acceptable for most of the visitors. The friendly staff compensate for many of the small inconveniences. For birding (mangrove boat ride) a stay in this place is a must and there are no better alternatives in the region.
Days 6 - 8: After breakfast we leave the camp going further inland, staying on the south side of the Gambia River until the ferry at Farafenni. Taking this ferry is a real colourful and interesting adventure. We will buy our packed lunch in Farafenni and continue our tour. The road on the north side of the river is of a much better quality and this allowes us to proceed much faster. Again we will have several birding stops on our way and we will arrive in the late afternoon at a small ferry which will take us to Georgetown on MacCarthy Island. On this Island we will find Bird Safari Camp for a 3 nights stay.
You'll love the peaceful relaxing atmosphere of Bird Safari Camp with its wonderful riverside setting, starlit night skies and amazing cacophony of bird song which simply has to be experienced. It is the perfect base for exploring the fresh water regions up-country and is one of the best locations in The Gambia for spotting owls (Pearl-spotted Owlet, Senegalese and European Scops Owl, Northern White-faced and Milky Eagle Owl have all been recorded here).
The camp has a choice of accommodation - either traditional round thatched huts or safari tents. Both have an en-suite shower, WC and wash basin. Water is pumped by solar power directly from the river and lighting is provided in the evenings by kerosene lamps, candles and solar-charged lanterns. Solar-electricity is supplied in the restaurant building where you can charge your cameras, mobile phones, laptops etc. Even Wifi connection is available during the day.

text: Ageless Favorites will take the time to reflect on older recordings that we feel are worth bringing to people's attention again. They might be essential recordings in the career of a distinguished artist, or they might be albums that had a strong impact on us for one reason or another. They won't necessarily be in the new age genre, and they won't necessarily be piano albums, but they will be albums that we feel are important or just too good to let get dusty in a used record bin. Enjoy!

DESIGN REVIEW; A Goal for Ground Zero: Finding an Urban Poetry
By HERBERT MUSCHAMP
Published: January 28, 2003
Sometimes we actually do acknowledge poets to be legislators of the world. One of those rare moments may be here. As early as tomorrow, officials of the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation are expected to choose one or two designs for the next phase of planning the future of ground zero. What if the decision were up to you?
Which poet would you choose? What design, if any, attains the level of poetry in the ancient Greek sense: the connective tissue that binds stray pieces of memory, experience and anticipation into a civilization's fabric? What rhyming couplet might even transcend the separation of death?
Public officials will be criticized no matter what they decide. People protested the Eiffel Tower, too. If it were up to me, I would pick the pair of latticework towers proposed by the Think group. It is a work of genius, a towering affirmation of humanism in modern times.
The Think team -- whose principals include Shigeru Ban, Tokyo; Frederic Schwartz, New York; Ken Smith, New York; and Rafael Viñoly, New York, and as consultants, Arup, London; Buro Happold Engineers, Bath, England; Jorg Schlaich, Stuttgart, Germany; William Moorish, Charlottesville, Va.; David Rockwell, New York; and Janet Marie Smith, Baltimore -- have titled their proposal the World Cultural Center.
It calls for two frameworks of steel lattice to be erected in approximately the same locations as the original towers. The new structures would straddle the footprints of the old towers without touching them, to respect the sacral dimension of the two squares. They would form the infrastructure for a vertically organized complex of cultural and educational buildings, including a conference center, concert hall, library and an interpretive museum about the events of 9/11.
The towers have a Jack and the Beanstalk quality, as if they linked the earth to an aerial world high above. The individual buildings of this sky city would be designed by different architects. The plan also designates four areas as potential sites for one or more separately designed memorials: two below ground level, contained within the footprints, and one in each tower at the penthouse level. The framework itself appears made up of stars connected at their points: symbols of birth or resurrection.
This is a work of abstraction. It does not impose literal meanings on the viewer. Yet implicitly it embodies the theme of metamorphosis. From towers of steel, the World Trade Center has shifted shape, first into towers of light and now into towers of air. Memory is their invisible structural core. The exposed metal framework of the two structures evokes the origins of tall building design in engineering works of the 19th century. They suggest that the urban center, too, is changing shape, still in transition from the industrial city of a century ago to today's cultural crossroads. The towers themselves would be integral to this progress. They would help lift New York out of the provincialism that has afflicted its cultural life in recent decades.
I agree with those who feel that New York would gain by restoring the totemic image of the twin towers to the skyline, if not in their original form. Think's proposal is the only one of the new designs that would accomplish this. Perhaps for that reason, a nighttime rendering of the project has been the overwhelming preference of foreign newspapers and magazines. Perhaps they are trying to tell us something.
Concept, however, not image, drives Think's design. The plan's fundamental strategy is to secure investment in the public realm during the limited period that federal dollars will be available to rebuild Lower Manhattan. The towers themselves would be for noncommercial uses. In the present era of architectural tourism, however, it is reasonable to assume that they would benefit New York's economy.
Construction would be phased, starting with the two tower structures, the memorial and new parks. Commercial development would be added around the perimeter of the site as the market demands. But the elevation of the public realm is the design's most emphatic statement.
It is a powerful polemic to make at a time when city planning and civic amenities have become increasingly privatized. Making the concept work would be a challenge, especially in an era of heightened concern for building security. New circulation systems would have to be devised to ensure public access and prevent the towers from becoming fortresses.
But this is a legitimate challenge for the city to take on at this moment in urban history. And it is a cultural challenge as well as a technical one. Think's design recognizes a need for new forms of social space amid urban density. Let's go up there and see what they might look like, the design proposes. What have we got to lose but our boredom?
One of the greatest strengths of the Think project is its potential to expand the concept of culture to include the public realm. Too often, especially in urban developments, ''culture'' is shorthand for some consumerized version of high art: a museum, a concert hall. In the contemporary city such boundaries don't hold up. Infrastructure is culture. Engineering is culture. So are sustainable design, street life, the expectant atmosphere in airports, the work of window dressers and especially the relationships among these overlapping categories of experience.

For around US$32, Red Breast 12.
Good value for the price.

$32? What the hell? That's only about €20 TWENTY EURO!
I would pay about twoce that here in Ireland. I heard that Canadian retail operates on low margins but that's a steal. I think you're living in the right country. How much is a house?
Pure Pot Head
That must be an East coast thing. out here Red Breast 12 is ~50 usd or $55 cad. the average house in Vancouver is $941,000 last summer so maybe $800,000 right now
If you're not a peat fanatic, it's either something like Famous Grouse or an irishman.
If we use The Whisky Exchange as an index, FG is only 14 £.
Redbreast is 27½, but I haven't had it yet.
Greenspot is like a concentrated Powers, good stuff but it's 34 £.
Powers is nice and only 21 £.
Or it could be the sweet Jameson 12 for 25½ £.
Well, until I taste Redbreast, I'll probably stick with Powers or FG.

I voted for TAMDHU 10 which (if memory serves) is a single malt Scotch. Here in Maine, it is on sale this month for only $22.00 a 750ml.
I find this a lovely (lighter) tasting Scotch with very nice flavor. Considering it's price, a real bargain. I plan to buy several more bottles of this very "under the radar" Scotch.
I also have to mention that if I'm really strapped for cash, I will plan on buying either Bushmills Original or Powers Irish Whiskey which is even less expensive than the Tamdhu 10 in the State of NH.
Black Bush, Tullamore Dew 12 and Jameson 12 range in price from $31.00 to $34.00 in NH. Jameson 12 is TEN dollars less expensive per bottle in NH than Maine. I just went a little crazy today and purchased the Jameson 12 and ARDBEG 10 ($42.00) in NH. Time to stock up now for Maine's loooong Winter! I believe it's called "prior planning".

In our previous travels, we have visited land based destinations, ocean based destinations and space based destinations. In our journey today we will visit the earth itself, from space.
With today's technology, we can actually take worldwide trips with Google Maps and other satellite based images from orbiting satellites, without leaving our chairs. We can sit at our computers and look down upon our homes from outer space, and even see us and our neighbors standing outside in satellite images taken at a previous time. This is truly an advancement in technology, and is the focus of this Memphis International Travel article.
With the ability to see almost anyplace on our planet, and even see the people that were at that particular point when the picture was taken, is extraordinary. Even though we don't have the capabilities of seeing the peoples' faces on our home based computers, the government does have that capability through their satellite advances.
It seems that we are truly living in the age of "Big Brother," which was first penned as a fictional character in George Orwell's novel, "Nineteen Eighty-Four." Big Brother was the dictator of Oceania, a totalitarian state where the ruling party had total control of its people. In this novel, every citizen is being constantly watched by those in charge through the use of what Orwell called, telescreens. His novel was published in 1949 and now seems more of a tool for predicting the future than as a book of fiction.
With the technology of today, many fictional things from the era of the "baby boomers" have come to life. For example, remember "Dick Tracy's" two way radio watch. Well, we have actually improved on the fictional watch with the invention of "smart watches," that can function as a phone, computer and as should be, a watch. Also, if you remember the flip top communication devices on the original "Star Trek" episodes; we have seen them become reality through the flip phone. So many things from fiction have become real in today's world.
As this writer was scanning through information for this article, he found a video, produced by Google, titled, "10 Strange Discoveries on Google Earth Part 2." This video, which can be seen in this article, demonstrates some of the strange things seen from space, and this is the tip of the iceberg. So think hard about being watched by "Big Brother!"
If you don't already subscribe to the Memphis International Travel articles in the Examiner, you can do so by clicking on the subscribe link located under this writer's photo at the top of the page. All these articles are free. You can also check out this writer's suggested articles, listed at the bottom of this page.
Until we meet again on these pages, we will let the "World turn onto our next destination."

It is with a heavy heart that we report that Dave Brockie, also known as Oderus Urungus of GWAR was found dead last night (March 23) between 3pm and 7pm. According to Style Weekly in Richmond, VA, Brockie's body was found by his bandmates in his home. This news comes on the heels of GWAR's recent return from tour and the celebration of the band's 30th anniversary.
Brockie was one of the founders of GWAR, having started the band in 1984 and seeing it through numerous ups and downs, controversies, losses and even a Grammy nomination. Known as the most publicly outspoken members of GWAR, even those not familiar with his musical endeavors were likely aware of his presence from his Super Bowl rants to his celebrity jabs and even, most infamously, his political outrage. Never one to hold his tongue, Brockie refused to concede to the "you can't fight city hall" rhetoric he felt dominated the public arena. This and much more he discussed with me during an interview conducted with him on GWAR's "Fate Or Chaos" tour in mid-2013.
We will never forget the words of wisdom and behind the scenes insight he gave regarding his time on the road, tour cuisine dos and don'ts, his exploits in television and his part in the making of one of my favorite movies, Empire Records. If this news is true, the world has lost one more voice unafraid to be subversive and noxious regardless of the stigma and thus has consequently grown a bit more silent. Thank you Dave- for Oderus, for the music, and for the memories, those of us that have seen you in action will surely never forget.
"I've always said GWAR is the band that could last 1000 years. I don't know how long we'll be doing this; how long this current line up will be doing GWAR- probably years and years- but I was completely serious when I said we would probably have other people replace us at some point and the band would just continue on and on. Son of Oderus? I don't know if anyone will keep up with Oderus but he'll probably have a kid at some point who will probably kill and eat him and take his job." – Dave Brockie, April 23, 2013

Columbus police have arrested a wheelchair-bound Ralston man who is suspected of stealing a woman's purse.
Police say 51-year-old Bernard Pearson approached a 49-year-old woman who was reclining on a couch in the lobby of their downtown apartment building with her brown purse beside her.
They say Pearson took the purse and tried to get away but the woman yelled at him to return the purse and it was recovered.
Pearson got into an elevator and went to his room. He was arrested for robbery a short time later.
Two officers took Pearson to The Medical Center for treatment and police say Pearson insulted one of the officer's weight, cursing and spitting in his face.
Pearson was charged with obstruction of an officer on Saturday and was released from the Muscogee County Jail later that day.

Travis Wear each netted 17 points in UCLA's 74-64 win over Oregon State on Thursday evening. The Bruins led at halftime by a 37-26 margin and pushed their cushion to as many as 20 points early in the second half to secure their 10th straight win.
The Bruins have opened their Pac-12 schedule with a perfect 5-0 mark for the first time since 2003-04, the first season at UCLA for head coach Ben Howland. UCLA last won its first six conference games in 1993-94, when the Bruins opened Pac-10 play with a 7-0 mark and finished the year 13-5 in Pac-10 action.
The Bruins will play at Arizona next Thursday night and at Arizona State next Saturday afternoon. Arizona is scheduled to play at Arizona State at 11:30 a.m. (PT) on Saturday, Jan. 19. The Bruins split a pair of regular-season meetings against Arizona last season before losing to the Wildcats in the quarterfinals of the Pac-12 Tournament at Staples Center (Los Angeles). UCLA won both regular-season contests against Arizona State in 2011-12.
UCLA improved its Pac-12 record to 5-0 on Thursday night with a 74-64 win over Oregon State. Last weekend, the Bruins became the first Pac-12 team to win both games at the "mountain" schools since Utah and Colorado formally joined the conference in 2011-12 - no team had accomplished that feat in nine previous road trips to Utah/Colorado between eight schools last season and USC this month.
Travis Wear has averaged 12.3 points per game and 6.2 rebounds per game as a redshirt junior this season. The resident of Huntington Beach, Calif., scored a career-high 23 points in UCLA's victory at Colorado (Jan. 12), recording 15 points in the second half. He had a stretch of nine consecutive points in the game's final 5:08. He has scored in double figures in each of UCLA's last six games, dating back to a 22-point effort against Missouri (Dec. 28).
Travis Wear has shot 51.7 percent (91-176) from the field this season, the highest percentage of any UCLA player and 11th-best in the Pac-12. Wear has also made 80.0 percent of his free throws (36-45). He has scored in double figures 12 times this season and in 32 of 48 career games at UCLA.
Freshman guard Kyle Anderson has registered five of UCLA's eight double-doubles this season and ranks in the top five in the Pac-12 in that category. The resident of Fairview, N.J., is the only Pac-12 player to rank in the top seven in the conference in rebounds per game (8.9) and assists per game (3.6) - he also ranks seventh in the Pac-12 in steals per game (1.6) and fourth in assist turnover ratio (1.8).
Kyle Anderson has made 41 of 47 free throws (.872) in UCLA's last 12 games since opening the season making 13 of 26 (.500) in the first six contests. Anderson made all six free throws in UCLA's 78-75 win at Colorado last Saturday, including four free throws in the game's final 1:01.
Through games played Thursday (Jan. 17), senior Larry Drew II leads the nation in assist turnover ratio (4.71) and ranks fourth, nationally, in assists per game (8.1). Drew II has logged at least eight assists in 12 of UCLA's 18 contests and has committed two or fewer turnovers in 14 of 18 contests. Overall, Drew II has totaled 146 assists and 31 turnovers in 18 games while averaging 5.7 points per game.
Freshman swingman Shabazz Muhammad leads UCLA with 18.4 points per game, the fourth-highest scoring average in the Pac-12 and the top scoring average for any Pac-12 freshman. Muhammad has scored in double figures in 14 of 15 games played and has tallied 20 or more points in seven games. The resident of Las Vegas has logged two double-doubles. He scored a season-high 27 points in wins over Fresno State (Dec. 22) and Missouri (Dec. 28).
Freshman Shabazz Muhammad secured Oscar Robertson National Player of the Week honors, as announced by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) for the week of Dec. 24-30. He also earned Pac-12 Player of the Week honors that week after having scored 27 points in the Bruins' 97-94 overtime win over then-No. 7 Missouri. Muhammad made 10 of 19 field goals, including three of six 3-point attempts, against the Tigers.
Under 10th-year head coach Ben Howland, UCLA has recorded four winning streaks of 10 games or longer. The Bruins last won 10 or more games in 2008-09, posting a 10-game winning streak. In 19 seasons as a college head coach, Howland's teams have won 10 or more consecutive games eight times (includes five seasons at Northern Arizona, four seasons at Pittsburgh). Two of Howland's teams at UCLA logged 14-game winning streaks.
UCLA enters Saturday's game versus Oregon having compiled a 1.57 assist turnover ratio, the highest ratio in 10 seasons under head coach Larry Drew II leads the nation in assist turnover ratio (4.89). The Bruins have had just one game this season (Nov. 20, vs. Georgia in Brooklyn, N.Y.) with more turnovers than assists.
Freshman Kyle Anderson finished three assists shy of a triple-double against Fresno State (Dec. 22), posting season-highs of 20 points and 17 rebounds that night.

My Personal Draft Rankings
You can setup draft rankings for your account and use them for every team you have. Use the interface below to make a list of your top players, then during your drafts you can copy this list to your team.
The list of available players on the left defaults to the Top 300 ranked players, but can be filtered by position. You can move available players to your draft rankings list by clicking on the blue icon. Once a player is in your draft rankings list you can re-order the list by clicking and dragging the players up and down. Your draft rankings are saved automatically for you every time a player is added or moved within your list, you do not have to click a save button. If you would like to pre-load your draft rankings with our rankings or if you would like to clear out your rankings and start over, there are links at the bottom of the page to accomplish this.
