Steiner, M; Menghini, G; Thomet, E; Jäger, A; Pfister, J; Imfeld, T (2010). Assessment of dental fluorosis prevalence in Swiss populations. Schweizer Monatsschrift für Zahnmedizin SMfZ, 120(1):12-20.
Summary In 1996 and 2006, recruits of the
Swiss army participated in a dental survey.
Similarly in 1995/96 and 2004/05, randomly
selected schoolchildren from 16 rural communities
of the Canton of Zurich participated
in a dental survey. As part of these surveys,
color slides were taken of the incisor teeth of
all recruits, as well as of third and fourth grade
schoolchildren. The slides (N = 2049) were
examined for the presence of fluoride-associated
enamel opacities (FOP), using the Thylstrup-
Fejerskov (TF) index. Two examiners (A
and B) assessed all slides. The examiners were
blind as to the year of survey. Examiner A recorded
prevalences of FOP between 18% and
27% depending on population; examiner B
recorded prevalences between 7% and 12%.
The examiners' influence on the estimation of
the prevalence was obvious. The prevalences
reported should, therefore, be considered as
rough estimates. FOP of TF score 2 were only
observed in approximately 1% of the participants.
One examiner recorded a TF score 3 in
a single individual. FOP therefore are not a
cosmetic problem and certainly not a public
health concern.
The prevalence of FOP decreased slightly
during observation period I (recruits born
1975–77 vs 1985–87) and period II (schoolchildren
born 1985–87 vs 1994–96). However,
the decline was statistically supported
in only one instance (Period I, Examiner B).

Haus schön, Lage toll und die Gastgeberin (Jeannie) war sehr herzlich ...
Der Blick aus dem Garten ist unfassbar schön. Für den Preis hätten wir evtl. einen tv und ein eigenes Bad erwartet - es ging aber auch so.
Was uns wirklich gestört hat war der Geruch unserer Bettsachen - irgendwie nicht so frisch ...
Alles in allem eine echte alternative in Bezug auf die horrenden hotelpreise in SF
Nous avons passé 4 nuits chez Jeannie et Skate. Toute la famille est chaleureuse et l accueil familial. Jardin magique, une promenade de découvertes, nous en avons beaucoup profité et c était plaisant. Quartier tranquille et bien desservi. Nous recommandons vivement cette famille.
awesome place with really nice and helpful persons ... love it <3
Jeannie and Skate are very friendly people and we enjoyed our stay at their home. If come to San Francisco again i would like to stay there again.
We really enjoyed the stay, Jeannie and Skate are real nice, the place is confortable and the garden, wonderful! Well situated, the perfect place to rest after a whole day exploring the city. The neighbourhood, Cortland St., Precita, etc. are a place to visit in SF!
I spent 3 days with my family at Jeannies and Skates house in SF. It´s a lovely place with a beautiful garden and a wonderful house with nicely decorated rooms and a stunning view. The shared bathroom is no problem at all, we didn´t even notice that there was somebody else. The Mission district is within walking distance. To Castro and Haight Street it takes half an hour by bus, same to Downtown.
Jeannie made it very easy to get in touch very quickly. We had a wonderful stay with Jeannie and her daughter. They even took our son to join a party, he really enjoyed and loved the stay with the whole family. Thanks a lot again for having us, being ever so nice and lovely, we enjoyed our stay with you very much. I hope we´ll manage it to come back soon to meet you again and stay at your lovely place, which I would recommend to all people I like. Yours, Angelika
Jeannie and Skates home is a lovley place. The pictures do not lie, the garsen ia beautiful, the view is amazing. Rhe hosts took care of everything, we were even invited to join a barbeque. I would go there again for sure.
We LOVED Skate and Jeannie's magical house and garden.
Fantastic view over SF and the Golden gate bridge
We stayed for 3 days and everything was perfect. Jason helped us with everything.
We only have positive things to say about our stay.
Will 100 % recommend this place
Really great!
The room was exactly as stated in the description. A folder is ready, in which information and insider tips and assistance for public transportation and restaurant tips are etc.abgeheftet for guests. The garden and the view of the city is spectacular. Very hospitable and warmly we were received. One also gets the opportunity mitzunutzen not only the room and the garden, but also the kitchen. Unfortunately, we were too short in attendance to have our hosts closer to get to know. Should we again come to San Francisco, so Jeannie and skate would be our 1st choice for an overnight stay. We can only recommend nights at Jeannie and skate. Thank You Very Much !!!
Wirklich toll!
Das Zimmer war genau so, wie in der Beschreibung angegeben. Eine Mappe liegt für die Gäste bereit, in denen Informationen und Insider-Tipps sowie Hilfen für öffentliche Verkehrsmittel sowie Restaurant-Tipps etc.abgeheftet sind. Der Garten und der Blick über die Stadt ist sensationell. Sehr gastfreundlich und herzlich wurden wir aufgenommen. Man bekommt auch die Möglichkeit, nicht nur das Zimmer und den Garten, sondern auch die Küche mitzunutzen. Leider waren wir zu kurz anwesend, um unsere Gastgeber näher hätten kennenlernen zu können. Sollten wir nochmal nach San Franzisko kommen, so würden Jeannie und Skate unsere 1. Wahl für eine Übernachtung sein. Wir können Übernachtungen bei Jeannie und Skate nur empfehlen. Herzlichen Dank!!!

Sample of ahi, kalua pig, and lau lau plate. By hellochris, Flicker.com
The islands are calling you, well, at least from only a few miles away. Hula Hands is one of Alaska's best-value dining establishments serving South Pacific fare, mainly Hawaiian and Polynesian foods. Hula Hands now has two locations in Anchorage, one in Mountain View and the other in the Spenard neighborhood, right off Fireweed Lane.
The best feature of this local Cheap Eats Gem is their generous portions of hot, finger-licking meals for not a lot of dough. Serving lunch and dinner, they have a variety of menu items, ranging from $1.50 to $15. A sampling of meal items include kalua cabbage, lomi salmon, grilled mahi mahi and kalbi beef ribs.
Average prices for an average meal at Hula Hands ranges from $7 to $10, but with the portion sizes, it's easy to have enough leftovers to provide a second meal or to share with a dining buddy. You can order "to-go" and also the option of dining in a mom-and-pop diner atmosphere, complete with Hawaiian music, tropical island themed décor and friendly staff.
My favorite is the Pulchu Chicken combo meal for $9.50. This barbeque style chicken is just beyond tasty; I always have a hard time putting my fork down. It's slightly seared but never burnt, and the salty glaze sets off the moist, meaty chunks served with a scoop of white rice and their famous homemade macaroni salad.
Hula Hands products and service is usually consistent; I have never been disappointed with any of my to-go orders or dining experiences. When ordering for take-out I have found that there's so much in that to-go box, I never worry about what to take to work the next day for lunch.
This family-owned and Alaskan-owned restaurant has become a local favorite, mainly due to unique menu items such as kim chee, taro leaves and shoyu poke. Not only do they have fair prices, they also conveniently provide catering for large groups and corporate events.
If you haven't tried South Pacific foods, Hula Hands is a great local eatery to introduce you to the cuisine of the islands. With its homemade side dishes, succulent barbeque meats, and fresh exotic vegetables, this restaurant will prove to be a winner in its category of favorite local restaurants.

Top North Korean Official Dismissed Because of 'Illness'
After a "rare meeting" on Sunday, North Korean senior army general Ri Yong Ho was relieved of his many duties within the regime, including as chief of the General Staff of the North's People's Army, because of "illness." The Times reports that 69-year-old Vice-Marshal Ri became Kim Jong-un's mentor in 2009 and, to this point, had been a prominent figure in the power transition after Kim Jong-il's death. Seeing as how Kim Jong-un has another mentor these days, perhaps we've just witnessed the influence of the "Excellent Horse-Like Lady" lady.

|Gender in Italian–German bilinguals: A comparison with German L2 learners of Italian
|Giulia Bianchi
|Universität Hamburg
|Linguistic Field:
|Language Acquisition
|Subject Language:
|This study compares mastery of gender assignment and agreement in Italian by adult Italian–German bilinguals who have acquired two languages simultaneously (2L1), and by adult German highly proficient second language learners (L2ers) of Italian. Our data show that incompleteness in bilingual acquisition and in second language (L2) acquisition primarily affects gender assignment: the categorization of nouns and the interpretable feature are subject to vulnerability in the two modalities of acquisition. Overall, mastery of morpho-syntax (i.e., gender agreement) was nearly native-like for both groups of speakers, suggesting that uninterpretable features are unlikely to be subject to vulnerability in the heritage language of adult bilingual speakers and can be acquired in adult L2 acquisition. Deviances from the target in gender assignment and, to a lesser extent, in gender agreement are attributed to both language-internal (i.e., language) and language-external factors (i.e., amount of input).

Daniel asks…
Is cold-calling are there is??
I own my own Mortgage company doing Home Loans. I am tired of cold-calling although a few of my buddies have made a killing at it! Does anyone have any advice for me…for marketing on a budget? I have been told to find referral partners like BK lawyers and divorce lawyers. I need to build up my pipeline fast! And I am NOT buying any more leads. I was burned for $1,000 and I don't care if you are legit, I just don't have the money for that anymore!
scottparat answers:
Business 2.0 magazine in an article entitled "Firing Up Your Cold Calls" http://money.cnn.com/magazines/business2/business2_archive/2005/12/01/8364583/index.htm has some very interesting and practical tips on how to improve your cold calling strategies:
1. Call when the screeners (secretaries, assistants) are out – the ideal time to talk to the decision maker and busy executives would be just after daybreak or after dinnertime. They would still be at work, but their assistants and minders would have already left. Yes, the timing is unconventional, but if it could put you on the phone with the person you need, then that's the thing to do.
2. Engage the gatekeeper. Because you can't always call before or after 9-to-5, chances are there will be times when the secretary or assistant will answer the phone. Charm them or disarm them with unexpected one liners. Make them think of you as a person not as a nuisance.
3. Find something – anything – in common with the person you are cold calling. Sometimes it takes a little digging to get the response you want from the company you want to do business with. An example given in the article is about a vendor trying to get in touch with the head of an asset management company. Since his calls or emails are not returned, what he did was to find other executives in the company with his same last name, and sent that person an email. Pretending to be a long lost cousin may not always work, but it sure can get you the exec's attention.
4. Buy before you sell. You have to first know the needs of the company you want to sell to, even to the extent of doing market research about that company. If you are able to zero in on what they need, and articulate it to them, you stand a greater chance in getting at the exec's door.
5. Be a little unprofessional. Even well-rehearsed scripts can sound, well, scripted. Your pitch may sound professional, but your calls are not returned or your emails deleted. The example given in the article showed the head of a nanotechnology company who have been calling the HR head at Kmart for the last 6 months, to no avail. Finally, he called and simply left the message, "Hey Dante, throw me a bone!" — and got a call back within 5 hours! Unconventional sometimes work, I suppose.
6. Learn to love striking out. The word "NO" will not kill you. Don't be discouraged by it. You will always get a "no" somewhere somehow. But sooner someone will say "YES" so just keep prodding along until you improve your batting average.
Some other marketing tips:
1. Direct mail. Prepare a well-crafted brochure and send it to your target markets in Sunnyvale. Find a vendor in your area renting mailing lists of business establishments or take the time and go over the yellow pages and get their contact information. You can read more of how to use direct marketing strategies here http://www.powerhomebiz.com/marketing/direct.htm
2. Publicity. Publicity can oftentimes be more effective than advertising. Not only is it cost-effective (oftentimes you are paying for nothing), but also people are apt to remember an article about your business rather than advertising. People find a write-up or special feature about a business more credible and objective than a paid advertising. Publicity also reaches a wider audience: if you are lucky, the national media might even pick up your story. Contact an editor of your local newspaper and pitch your story. Read the article "Leverage the Power of Publicity for Your Small Business"
3. Press releases. Send out press releases through your local newspapers about your business. Whether it is about your story or about a sale you are offering, press releases can be very good exposure for you. You can read more about how to harness press releases for your business here http://www.powerhomebiz.com/marketing/public%20relations.htm
4. Use the Internet. The Web can be your online brochure. You can use it to refer your potential clients for more information about your business; and it could also generate clients for you directly. Some of your potential clients may be looking to the Web for a floral designer, and you need to have a strong presence there as well.
5. Network. Join and be active in your local business organizations, chamber of commerce, etc. Increase your visibility in the community. You can find more information on networking here http://www.powerhomebiz.com/marketing/networking.htm
6. Word of mouth. This is the best form of advertising for your business – afterall, it is free. Read "Secrets of Word Of Mouth Marketing" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol154/wordofmouth.htm
George asks…
what are the type of server?
scottparat answers:
Web Servers List
Here is a detailed and updated list of the most important and popular web servers:
Apache web server – the HTTP web server
Free and the most popular web server in the world developed by the Apache Software Foundation. Apache web server is an open source software and can be installed and made to work on almost all operating systems including Linux, Unix, Windows, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and more. About 60% of the web server machines run the Apache web server – Refer Web server usage statistics from Netcraft.
Apache Tomcat
The Apache Tomcat has been developed to support servlets and JSP scripts. Though it can serve as a standalone server, Tomcat is generally used along with the popular Apache HTTP web server or any other web server. Apache Tomcat is free and open source and can run on different operating systems like Linux, Unix, Windows, Mac OS X, Free BSD.
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Internet Information Services (IIS)
The IIS for Windows Server 2003 operating system has been developed by the software giant, Microsoft. It offers higher levels of performance and security than its predecessor, the Windows 2000 server. It also comes with a good support from the company and is the second most popular server on the web.
lighttpd, pronounced "lighty" (don't ask me why), is a free web server that is distributed with the FreeBSD operating system. This open source web server is fast, secure and consumes much less CPU power. Lighttpd can also run on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris operating systems.
Jigsaw (W3C's Server) comes from the World Wide Web Consortium. It is open source and free and can run on various platforms like Linux, Unix, Windows, Mac OS X Free BSD etc. Jigsaw has been written in Java and can run CGI scripts and PHP programs.
Klone, from KoanLogic Srl, includes a web server and an SDK for creating static and dynamic web sites. It is a web application development framework especially for embedded systems and appliances. No additional components are required when using Klone; thus, one can do away with an HTTP/S server or the active pages engine (PHP, Perl, ASP).
Sun Java System Web Server
This web server from Sun Microsystems is suited for medium and large web sites. Though the server is free it is not open source. It however, runs on Windows, Linux and Unix platforms (at the time of writing the Mac OS X and FreeBSD operating systems were not supported). The Sun Java System web server supports various server-side languages and technologies such as JSP, Java Servlets, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby on Rails, ASP and Coldfusion.
Xitami web server
Xitami is a free, open source web server developed by iMatrix Corporation. FYI, Xitami is iMatrix spelled backwards. The development has stopped after version 2.5, however, it remains popular on small networks. The server is not the fastest in the market but has a small footprint and is available for Windows, Linux and Unix platforms.
Zeus web server
The Zeus web server runs on Linux and Free BSD operating systems. It has been developed by Zeus technology Ltd. And is known for its speed, reliability, security and flexibility. The web server is used on some of the busiest web sites of the world including Ebay. Zeus web server is not free and costs more than a thousand pounds.
Zeus Technology Ltd. – Zeus web server
For further information, refer Web server comparison on Wikipedia and Basic web servers on the World Wide Web Consortium web site (this list is outdated – that's why I have this article.
If you want to know which server your web site runs on, use the Netcraft's What's that site running on? Tool.

The City of Wilmington Police Department has set up a system to allow citizens to text message tips COMPLETELY ANONYMOUSLY.
Tips are sent to a main server that is not associated with any police agency. The Internet-based system routes messages through a server that encrypts cell phone numbers before they get to police, making tips virtually impossible to track. Here's how it works:

Early Outburst Sends Rider To 5-3 Midweek Win Over Princeton Baseball
A four-run outburst in the first inning was enough for the Rider baseball team, which held off a Princeton comeback attempt in a 5-3 midweek victory Wednesday afternoon at Sonny Pittaro Field.
Four Princeton players had multi-hit games, including second baseman Danny Hoy, who drove in a pair of runs with a second-inning single to centerfield. Princeton also got a run when Chad Powers singled in Paul Tupper in the fifth inning.
Powers, Tupper and Danny Baer each had two hits apiece for Princeton, which will conclude its Ivy League season this weekend with four games against travel partner Cornell. The Tigers will play a pair in Ithaca on Friday, and then will conclude Ivy play Sunday afternoon in a home doubleheader.
Chris Bodurian took the loss for Princeton after allowing four runs in three innings. The damage all took place in the first inning, and three of the runs were scored with two outs. Two singles, two hit batters and a walk all contributed to Rider's four-run inning, and the Broncs added their fifth run with back-to-back singles and a stolen base in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Looking out the window from the tenth floor every morning, down below I see a stream of people walking their dogs. The dogs are in control during this time as their owners follow them around, and dogs explore with their noses. Sooner or later they will piddle and poop, which is the purpose more than their getting exercise. Canines once wandered freely, working hard for their living, and now, many are confined to unnaturally tight quarters where they eat and sleep, and wait for the next opportunity to go outside for a brief moment to do what comes naturally.
Now, here is a brilliantly written article about people pooping. Visitors to the Galápagos Islands are restricted from willy-nilly pooping because the consequences of leaving their droppings behind can be environmentally devastating. Not to detract from Kate Horowitz report, the details are held back.
People visiting the Galápagos must hold it while they are there as pooping opportunities are limited, and now humans must cart it home with them just as they must do for their dogs. Seems fair, doesn't it? Read the article to learn more about why.
Also, as preppers, think about how important it is to plan and prepare for sanitary means for disposing human waste. The stuff is unhealthy and can be dangerous.
"A Guide to Pooping in the Galápagos Islands
Galápagos National Park is an ecological treasure trove, a biological hoard guarded fiercely by conservationists. Visitors to the islands must abide by the park's rules, which include not taking anything from the wilderness—or leaving anything behind.
The park is prized for both its mind-boggling biodiversity and its historical significance, for it was on those desolate, craggy shores and in those primeval forests that a young Charles Darwin observed and collected the unique plants and animals that would inspire his theory of evolution. The archipelago, mused the naturalist in his journal, "seems to be a little world in itself."
Darwin's research there transformed the islands into an object of scientific and cultural fascination, as well as a bucket-list destination. In 1978, UNESCO honored the archipelago and its living treasures by naming it the first-ever World Heritage site. Ninety-seven percent of the islands' area was designated a national park; the remaining 3 percent was set aside for human habitation. The parklands and their inhabitants are truly wild, offering no shelter, no Internet access, and no bathrooms.
Which raises the question: How do you poop in the Galápagos Islands? You've got a few options, none of them luxurious. According to naturalist guide Fabian Bucheli, if a park tourist has an urgent need to go, he or she will be told to hold it (island visits last a maximum of four hours), or directed back to the tour boat or toward one of the islands' few inhabited areas. Leaving isn't always possible, however, and Bucheli admitted that in some cases he and other guides will simply "dig a hole and cover the sample."
That moment when the crap hits the sand is actually where things get interesting. Human poop contains millions of unique bacteria, not to mention the remains of non-native plants and animals. Our waste takes more than a year to biodegrade, and in that time a single human "deposit" has the potential to shift the future of entire ecosystems.

On a sun-struck Tuesday morning I sign a waiver, strap on a helmet and harness, clip myself to a cable running up to a 9,200 foot peak and start climbing. It's hard work—three days later, my quads are still barking—and intimidating at times. To my left, the world falls away abruptly; If I choose to, I can look thousands of feet straight down. Mostly, I do not so choose. My climbing buddy Sarah is in her forties and a mom of teens, but the other climbers range from 18 to 33. They could have been my kids if I'd gotten an especially early start on childbearing.
This is a day when age doesn't count. We're all in it together, making the same slow, steady progress up Mt. Nimbus, deep in the mountains of British Columbia. After four hours of climbing, when we finally stand together on the summit, we represent five different decades of life. On that little rocky outcropping, I could have been 33 or 27 or even 18.
We're on Canadian Mountain Holidays' newest adventure, the Via Ferrata, a rock-climbing course designed to give novices like me the thrill of a steep-pitch climb. I figured via ferrata was Italian for "scared silly," but it turns out to mean "iron way." A series of U-shaped metal steps, like the ones repairmen use to scale telephone poles, lead up the rock face with a metal cable running alongside. You ascend this rudimentary stairway to heaven, methodically re-clipping yourself to new segments of cable to assure that the farthest you can fall is the length of your tether, an umbilical cord that connects you and your harness to the rock.
The CMH guides spent three summers constructing the course and dreaming up inventive ways to get our attention. Like the 150-foot-long suspension bridge that connects two spires, a bridge only Indiana Jones could love. "How far is the drop?" I ask Bruce, our guide. "Only 200 feet to the first bounce," he helpfully replies. Believe me, you have plenty of time to contemplate that fate as you gingerly inch your way across, tiptoeing from rung to rung, trying not to set up a sway. Did I mention that the rungs are placed more than a foot apart, so there's always plenty of viewing space straight down? Sarah, who goes first, advises me that Zen yoga walking, one breath per step, is the key, and it does help, but I notice that every one of us makes a final, grateful lunge to grab a handhold on the far side.
One more steep ascent, and then we all pose for photos on the summit with big, stupid grins on our faces. We are kings and queens of the universe. From there, it's a crazy-fun 200-foot rappel to a spot where the Bell 212 twin-turbine helicopter picks us up to fetch us back to the lodge. "Best day of my life!" one climber shouts on her way down. We all "whoo-hoo" back, punching our fists in the air.
Conquering Mt. Nimbus is a top-of-the-world emotion that makes me feel like a kid again, with an afterglow that lasts and lasts. I'm in the mood to stretch, to reinvent, to try other new things.
At midlife, we spend a lot of time trying to look younger. Nothing wrong with that. But isn't the real point to feel younger? For that, there's nothing like getting out of your comfort zone and doing something you didn't know you could. If adventure is your thing, Canadian Mountain Holidays has got you covered. They run superb heli-hiking trips from lodges deep in the mountains of British Columbia. By day you explore far-flung alpine meadows and glacier-clad peaks; by night you enjoy a hearty dinner, a roaring fire and a soft bed at the lodge. Take a look at canadianmountainholidays.com (and be sure to check out the via ferrata). Best day of your life: I promise.

As we pay hardily into supporting our expensive American government, the recurring question continually emerging is: Is it actually working for us? Bickering ad nauseam, endless gridlock, and failure to take any action means it's time to take to heart the very axiom upon which this country was founded 300 years ago — Taxation without Representation.
Today's 113th Congress is halfway through its current term of office, and so far, the efforts to make worthwhile decisions for America are laughable.
"It's hard to avoid the conclusion that this is the least productive Congress in modern history," said U.S. Representative Sander Levin, (D-Mich.). Levin, a Washington D.C. veteran since 1983, has served with the current Congress since 2013.
With one year into their terms, Levin says members have enacted 72 laws. He unfavorably compares that to the 284 enacted during the 111th Congress.
A critical area that needs attention is the December cessation of Emergency Unemployment Compensation.
He, and many others — including the average working-class voter — believe that's a priority needing immediate congressional action. Levin sponsored the bill requesting the EUC extension.
Momentarily, when Congress convened in early January, things were looking hopeful for that extension. In addition to the 1.3 million who lost all benefits December 28, additional people have been affected to the tune of 72,000 per week since, with a national unemployment rate of 37 percent. Within six months, an additional 1.9 million who will exhaust any state coverage, will join them — unable to also receive federal coverage.
In Michigan, that equates to 43,000 affected immediately, and another 86,500 within six months. The highest numbers of unemployed by county are in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb. Many unemployed are no longer even traceable statistically, having long ago disappeared from accounts of 2008.
Some states have fewer than 25 percent of the unemployed able to collect, which is a record low. Since record-keeping began in 1946, the rate has never dropped below 30 percent; today some states are well below that 25 percent, too.
And, lest politicians — or others — point to no need for charity for the lazy, the unemployed paid into that fund during previous jobs. Many are middle-aged, middle-class people who were down-sized out of their positions or replaced by technological advancements.
In what was identified by the Ways and Means Committee as the worse economic downturn since the Great Depression, there is evidence of some real progress since the government's near collapse in 2008. However, the numbers of unemployed continue near historic highs.
The situation continues to hang in the balance, although the unemployed are encouraged to still log in just in case an extension passes. If that occurs, payment can be made retroactively.
Unions, in support of a benefit extension, used their power during a January 6 nationwide call-in to congressional offices. Things looked surprisingly brighter when, on January 7, a vote approved that extension, 60-37. Any anticipated Conservative backlash was temporarily stymied, when six Republicans voted yes, but said they want the $6.4 billion cost paid through cuts made elsewhere in the budget.
U.S. Senator Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) called the uplifting, across-the-aisle vote, "a shift in the tectonic plates of our politics," according to The New York Times.
Of the six moderates and Conservatives who voted for the extension, several hail from states affected with higher-than-national-average unemployment rates. The list includes Senators Susan Collins (R-Maine), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Dan Coats (R-Ind.).
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was a vocal opponent, asking why an extension of the EUC — which was passed at the height of the 2008 recession — needs to be continued. He compared benefits for the unemployed to a narcotic that lulls the unemployed into avoiding work.
Most Republicans were reported by the media to be willing on January 7 to begin the formal process of extending benefits. Sen. Coats said, also in The Times, "There was enough concern and maybe some legitimate need to do some extension of unemployment benefits, that it shouldn't have been just shut down."
Later, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) was quoted extensively by the press as stating that renewal of the federal benefits program was "extremely important to the American people." He then led his 45-member caucus in blocking renewal efforts of the EUC.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) clarified that in exchange for extending employment benefits, he wanted that support tied to other Republican priorities. Those include building the Keystone XL oil pipeline and expanding exemptions from the Affordable Care Act while opening exploration for energy on federal land.
Boehner commented following the Senate vote: "One month ago, I personally told the White House another extension should not only be paid for, but (also) include something to help put people back to work."
Adding that he'd be happy to discuss any plan President Obama offers, Boehner says the House will remain focused on "growing the economy and giving America's unemployed the independence that only comes from finding a good job."
Congress convened at 11:30 a.m. on the 21st by opening with a prayer, approved the daily journal, recited the Pledge of Allegiance, then recessed at 11:33 and 55 seconds. The previous meeting on the 17th convened at 1:00 p.m., proceeded identically as the one on the 21st, and also adjourned at 1:03 and 53 seconds. Such activities are typical of late, with adjournment occurring within minutes or a few hours, depending on the length of filibustering time in each session.
Yes, in spite of the needs and worries of constituents, this is the "action" of our government today.
While Americans wait to see if they can pay their bills, exactly what bills HAS Congress passed of the 72 focused on?
Levin shares some data from his sessions.
"Many of the laws that were approved dealt with minor matters, such as naming buildings and roads, or involved non-controversial transfers of land. There was the 'Freedom to Fish Act,' allowing anglers to fish near 10 dams in Kentucky and Tennessee, and specifying the amount of precious metal to be used by the U.S. Mint in making the 75th anniversary coins in the 'National Baseball Hall of Fame Commemorative Coin Act.'"
The Congressional summary also lists the 113th's efforts to re-authorize protection for violence against women, additional action for Homeland Security and disaster relief/hazard preparedness, work on military spending, setting animal drugs fees, taxing flu vaccines, reducing flight delays (!), naming tax sections on official forms after people, creating a back-up plan for military pay in the midst of another government shutdown, ensuring the stability of helium, screening of sleep disorders for commercial motor vehicle operators, having epinephrine accessibility in schools, extending authority of the Supreme Court Police until the end of 2019 to protect officials away from the court grounds, allowing reconsideration for interring people in national cemeteries, and amending penalties for federal elections violations.
Except for the most mundane matters, partisan infighting continues, and no real progress is made in the urgent matters — or those affecting working-class Americans.
"Conspicuously absent," said Levin, "were any new laws to create jobs, grow the economy, strengthen the middle class, repair our country's crumbling infrastructure, overhaul the tax code, or fix our nation's broken immigration system. A re-write of our nation's agriculture laws is also months behind schedule. The list goes on."
Yes, in spite of the needs and worries of constituents, this is the "action" of our government today. Is it any wonder voters are salivating for upcoming elections, with talk of completely wiping the Congressional slate clean?
The next session is scheduled to begin at 12:00 p.m. on January 27, although there is no clear indication of how soon it'll be adjourned. One minute? Two? Maybe three, if they have donuts?

TC TO JOHN STUART MILL; 30 October 1837; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18371030-TC-JSM-01; CL 9:337-338.
Chelsea, 30th October, 1837—
My dear Mill,
Mr Robertson1 and I have met twice or oftener: I find him a young man of sense and energy, good-natured, well-intentioned; I discern or augur much worth in him; I like especially the honest laugh he has. "Laughter," says Teufelsdröckh, "is the cipher-key of the whole man."2 Whatsoever in years or experience this Editor of yours may want, he is of course daily getting added.
He has sent me Scott long since, which I have attentively read; and seems very anxious that I should write upon it for next Number. It is a small enterprise; upon which, or rather upon the things involved in it and connected with it, I am now, according to agreement, to take your decision. For the question with me is not, Scott or no Scott? but, To review or not to review? As to which there were very many things I could say to you in fit mood and circumstance: here however I will restrict myself to the essential.
Doubtless I have often told you how the Editorial world found it convenient to deal with me some five or six years ago. Today, work, work in breathless superfluity; tomorrow, whistled down the wind,3 left to go and die if you like, you know not for what! It is one of the damnablest positions a man can find himself in. After some reflexion, I have resolved not to get into it again. I think I either ought to make some engagement of some permanence, we will say for a year; or not to intermeddle with the Periodical concern farther at all.
The thing I want to ask you therefore is, contrasting honestly in your mind my capabilities with the wants of your Enterprise, What is the utmost amount of employment (I mean money-amount, at so much per page, or otherwise reckoned on what principle you liked) your Review could afford me, say from this December 1837 till the same date of 1838? That is the first of all questions. If (which is very likely) you can promise nothing, this Article only, and the rest on peradventure,—then my decision must be also, at least till there come something pressing me for utterance thro' this vehicle more than another, nothing. At present nothing presses me, nor is like to do it. God knows how much has already sunk into the dreariest frozen quiescence for want of some right vehicle of utterance; much that might perhaps still be resuscitated were it encouraged; which in a little time more will not be capable even of that! On the whole I have got a good piece of my mind uttered; and ought now to look about me whether I cannot find something to live upon withal. Nay this, by the great mercy of Heaven, is not such a problem as it once was with me here.
If, on the other hand, you answer Something; and your maximum of wages will meet my minimum of necessities, then I will joyfully say Done, and set myself forthwith to perform, to see on what terms performance may be possible, may be useful and pleasant for all of us. I have that faith in Robertson and in his laugh that I think we could go on lovingly. My whole tendencies, you long since know, are analagous enough to your own. My depth of Radicalism goes on without abatement; my aversion to Benthamism, to all Formulism, and indeed I am sorry to add to many hollow Formalists, with their barren jangling, their bigotry, vanity and "vociferous platitude," who call themselves Radicals, has sensibly increased on nearer acquaintance. Farther I should desire, indeed I should need, to have if not my own choice of subjects, yet something very l[ike] that; also I doubt if I could stand much editing! Yet withal I am not a wild Orson,4 but a tame reasonable man, who long above all things and aim henceforth to act not reasonably only but with a practical view.— There are difficulties;—which on the whole we will look at more straitly, and see how to conquer, when your decision shall say they need to be fronted.5
And now, my dear Mill, I will beg only one other thing of you: that you meditate this question not as my Friend but as the manager of your own Review; this with all freedom and singleness of view. It is really much the same to me how you decide. Important it will be this Yes or this No of yours; but whether the No will be good for me or the Yes will, I am content to leave to the Powers.
Believe me ever, / Yours heartily /
T. Carlyle

Texas Tech Icon Marsha Sharp Set To Embark On New Role
An Interview With Marsha Sharp
Sept. 22, 2011
Texas Tech Director of Athletics Kirby Hocutt has announced that Marsha Sharp, former head coach of the Texas Tech Lady Raiders and member of the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame, will embark upon a new role with the athletics department with a focus on professional development and community engagement.
"Marsha Sharp has made unprecedented contributions to Texas Tech University," said Hocutt. "For years, her leadership enhanced the student-athlete experience on our campus and we take tremendous pride in the accomplishments of coach Sharp and her teams. I am pleased that she has agreed to take on this new role, and I look forward to working with her as our department moves forward."
Sharp, who led the Lady Raiders to the 1993 NCAA Championship, will serve the department as associate athletics director and will continue to oversee the Marsha Sharp Leadership Circle while also providing professional development for coaches, staff and student-athletes. Additionally, she will play an integral role in both community and donor relations.
"Kirby Hocutt has been wonderful to help me find a role that would be beneficial to Texas Tech Athletics and to me personally," remarked Sharp. "I am really thankful for what he has done to help me get back in the fold.
"There are so many great things about Texas Tech University and this athletics program and we just want to make sure that we are supporting each other and moving in the right direction. I am excited about the opportunity to get to work with coaches, staff and student-athletes and to be involved in the community."
As part of this new endeavor, Sharp has announced her resignation as Executive Director of the Kay Yow Cancer Fund - a position she has held since May 27, 2009. During her time with the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, Sharp has helped the organization raise over $4 million for cancer research. She was responsible for staff management, securing corporate sponsorships, cultivating relationships with potential and pre-existing major donors and oversaw all national events pertaining to the fund.
Prior to her work with the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, Sharp was the Texas Tech University head women's basketball coach from 1982 to 2006, where she had a career record of 572-189 and led her teams to eight conference championships, 10 sweet 16 appearances, four Elite 8's, and a national championship in 1993. She was named National Coach of the Year in 1993 and 1994 and SWC/Big 12 Coach of the Year seven times. She was inducted into the Texas Women's Hall of Fame in 1999, the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 2000, the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2003, and the Texas Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame in 2008. In the spring of 2010, Sharp received the Naismith Outstanding Contributor to Basketball Award and the Women's Basketball Coaches Association Jostens-Berenson Lifetime Achievement Award.
Sharp matched her on-court success with her expectations for her student-athletes within the classroom. Her financial contributions led to the opening of the Marsha Sharp Center for Student-Athletes in January of 2004. The center connects student-athletes with tutors, academic counselors and provides access to state-of-the art equipment.
In 2004, Sharp co-wrote the book "Tall Enough To Coach" which outlines life principles and her philosophy of no-compromise leadership.

The Prince
by Niccolò Machiavelli
Analysis: What's Up With the Title?
Machiavelli's title is about as generic as can be, but it still needs some explaining. When the book first circulated in Italy around 1513, it was titled De Principatibus, or About Principalities. In Italian, principato can refer to a whole bunch of political entities, so long as they are governed by a principe. We'll get into that word later. So the focus of this version of the text seems to be a bit different. Remember how the first few chapters are just talking about the different types of places that a leader can rule? Makes sense.
Then, in 1532, Machiavelli's little book was published under a different name, Il Principe or The Prince.
Translations are tricky things. Sure, principe does basically mean prince, but we have a pretty specific idea in our head when we think of princes. Prince Charming, Prince William, basically fairy tales and super old hereditary monarchies and that's it. But principe can mean way more than that. A principe could be a duke, a king, a president, a prime minister, whatever—as long as it's a word that means leader.
We don't know why the title was changed, or if this was the title that Machiavelli wanted all along, but we like it because it's less boring than About Principalities. The title also lets us know the intended audience of the book. Obviously it was specifically meant for Lorenzo de' Medici (who was a duke, by the way), but it speaks to anyone who is thinking about becoming a ruler—even if it's just rule of the chess club.

Are you a lover of Starbuck's bottled Frappuccino? If so, Daune from Cottage in the Oaks shares a myriad of uses for those containers that bear a strong resemblance to vintage milk bottles.
Daune suggests using them as vases, dressing them up with a little burlap or jute, or filling them with sand from your beach vacations. I love how Daune tied a tag with the name of each beach around the top. Now you just need to book some beach vacations!

A ninny grannet is a slightly variated form of ninny (a simpleton or fool). While not as insulting as ninny, ninny grannet implies more fustration, sillyness and outright comic stupidity to the person its being directed.
John and I were playing Halo for X-box when he totally killed my ass with a rocket launcher. "Ninny Grannet!" I exclaimed with fustration, as I waited to respawn.

Friday and Saturday, first pitch at Tony Gwynn Stadium is set for 6:00 p.m. PT and Sunday's series finale gets underway at 1:00 p.m. Fans can watch live SDSU video broadcasts of games one and three, as well as following live stats of all three games, via links from gohuskies.com. Go to the baseball schedule and click on that day's game for the links. Friday night, junior righty Aaron West will start for the Huskies. Junior RHP George Asmus will make his UW pitching debut as Saturday's starter while sophomore righty Austin Voth gets the ball on Sunday. Following the SDSU series, the Huskies open the home schedule with a single game next Tuesday, February 21, vs. Seattle University at Husky Ballpark. The Dawgs then return to the road for a three-game series at UC Irvine the following weekend. Here's a look at this weekend's games:

COACH MEGGS: Lindsay Meggs enters his third season as head coach at Washington. This spring, one of his chief accomplishments has come to fruition with the opening of the new baseball team building at Husky Ballpark - a clubhouse, coaches' offices, training room, equipment room and donor area overlooking the field. Meggs came to the UW after having spent the previous three seasons at Indiana State and the 13 prior to that at Chico State, where he won NCAA Division II national championships in 1997 and 1999. He helped Chico to the D-II College World Series seven times and won the league eight times. At Indiana State, he was named Missouri Valley Conference Coach of the Year in 2009 after guiding the Sycamores to a second-place finish, their highest since 1998. Entering the 2012 season, he boasts a 660-372-4 record over 18 seasons as a four-year college head coach. He'd previously served as head coach at Long Beach City College and Oxnard College. Born in San Jose and a graduate of Saratoga (Calif.) High, Meggs played four seasons as the starting third baseman at UCLA. He was drafted by the Brewers in 1983, and then again by the Royals after his senior year in 1984. Meggs is joined by assistant coaches Dave Nakama, Dave Dangler and Jordon Twohig.
SERIES HISTORY: San Diego State leads the all-time series against Washington with seven wins and four losses in the 11 meetings. The Huskies and Aztecs have faced off in a number of early-season tournaments over the years, but this weekend's series will mark only the second time that the UW and SDSU have squared off in a weekend series. The only other series was in 1974, when the teams split a four-game set played over two days. Surprisingly, this weekend's meeting will be the just the third time the two have played one other since 1983 as the Huskies won a tournament game at SDSU in 1994 and another in a tournament in Lancaster, Calif., in 2003. Washington also played SDSU twice in 1965, once in 1974 (other than the four-game series) and once each in 1981 and 1983. The UW has won two in a row and four of the last seven.
SQUAD BREAKDOWN: Among the 35 players on the 2012 Husky roster, there are two seniors, 12 juniors, 10 sophomores and 11 true freshmen. The squad includes 15 returners and 20 newcomers (11 true freshmen, three sophomore transfers and six junior transfers). Entering the 2012 season, the UW's returning players have competed in a total of 695 Husky baseball games. Eight different veteran position players have combined for 1,707 career at bats. Six veteran UW pitchers have combined to make 44 career starts and have pitched 420.2 career innings in a Husky uniform.
ANOTHER TOUGH SCHEDULE: Each year, Washington boasts one of the toughest schedules in the season, if only by virtue of playing the rigorous Pac-12 Conference. According to well-regarded college baseball website, boydsworld.com, the Huskies have the ninth-toughest schedule in the country, though most of the Pac-12's team rank highly. The Huskies, of course, face the 10 other Pac-12 teams. Six Pac-12 teams (Arizona, Arizona State, California, Oregon State, Stanford, UCLA) were ranked in either the Baseball America and USA Today coaches' preseason polls, or both. Oregon and USC also each also received votes in the coaches' poll. Additionally, the Huskies travel to UC Irvine for a three-game series in late February. The Anteaters were ranked No. 26 (one spot out of the top 25) by the coaches.
THEY'RE COMING FROM ALL OVER: The 2012 Husky baseball roster includes players from seven different states. Of the 35 players on the official roster entering the season, 18 are from Washington, 11 are from California, two are from Idaho and there is one player each from Arizona, Colorado, Hawai'i and Indiana. Washington's baseball roster has traditionally been heavily dominated by in-state players. Of the 18 players from the Evergreen State, 17 come from west of the Cascade Mountains, (the western half of the state).

TC TO MARGARET A. CARLYLE ; 15 October 1852; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18521015-TC-MAC-01; CL 27: 334
Chelsea, 15 Octr, 1852—
My dear good Mother,
I hoped to have written you more deliberately, if not yesterday—which proved impossible, at least today: but it appears we must still have a little patience; for never was there less time or deliberation than even now! The work-people, painters &c &c, are just in the struggles of finishing; they are to go bodily, and we hope for ever, on Wednesday next: but as yet all is Chaos here, and except my own bedroom (where I now write) there is not a rid [clear] corner from top to bottom of the house. Besides which, we ourselves are just packing up to go to The Grange for a week, and wait there till this end; till at least there is a staircase free where one can travel witht painting one's skirts. Alas, The Grange is not the place where I wanted to rest; and I have struggled hard enough not to go there or anywhere at present: but it is evidently the reasonable thing to do; a thing Jane has engaged for, and will not (for her share) draw back from; so I submit, what can I do!— This house will evidently be very nice, and much improved, when once it is set in order again (this day week, it will at least be silent and clean): but the doing of it has cost an immensity of fash! Poor Jane is quite worn out with fretting and struggling, and breathing paint so long: I do not think I ever saw her thinner these seven years: but if Heaven please, it shall all be over now before long; and poor souls will get settled to their work again, if they can manage to do any.— — I hear from John today a most short word, and write him the like, on his great enterprise: poor good soul, I hope and believe, and at least pray with my whole heart, it may be a most important improvement for him. My brave old Mother, he says, takes it bravely, calmly, as she has done all things; which is what I expected, but yet is comfortable to hear.—I will write again from The Grange: Kindest regards to Jamie & Isabella. Adieu dear Mother, and blessings with you all.— T. Carlyle
