Justice Stevens: A "Pretty Darn Conservative" Snowflake
Sunday's New York Times will be an embarrassment of riches for Supreme Court junkies. The Book Review has a front-page review of Jeffrey Toobin's "The Nine," complete with art inspired by the Ocean's movies (click here and here). (Ocean's Nine. Get it?) The magazine has a 7,500-word cover story on Law Blog Bow Tie Club patron saint Justice Stevens, by Jeffrey Rosen. Here are highlights (HT: How Appealing):
"I'm pretty darn conservative": "I don't think of myself as a liberal at all," he told me during a recent interview in his chambers, laughing and shaking his head. "I think as part of my general politics, I'm pretty darn conservative." Stevens said that his views haven't changed since 1975, when as a moderate Republican he was appointed by President Gerald Ford to the Supreme Court. Stevens's judicial hero is Potter Stewart, the Republican centrist, whom Stevens has said he admires more than all of the other justices with whom he has served. He considers himself a "judicial conservative," he said, and only appears liberal today because he has been surrounded by increasingly conservative colleagues. "Including myself," he said, "every judge who's been appointed to the court since Lewis Powell" — nominated by Richard Nixon in 1971 — "has been more conservative than his or her predecessor. Except maybe Justice Ginsburg. That's bound to have an effect on the court."
Defining "Judicial Conservative": [H]e emphasized that he still thinks of himself as a judicial conservative, which he defined as someone who tries to follow precedents and "who submerges his or her own views of sound policy to respect those decisions by the people who have authority to make them."
A Peek Inside the Sausage Factory: After the justices hear the oral arguments, they meet in a private conference to deliberate. After the chief justice speaks, each of the remaining justices speaks in order of seniority, so that Stevens speaks second. Then the justices vote, and the majority opinion is assigned. . . . When he is in the majority, Stevens is careful not to lose votes that start off on his side, often assigning the opinion to Kennedy when Kennedy seems to be on the fence. "Sometimes," he told me, "in all candor, if you think somebody might not be solid" after casting a vote in conference, "it might be wiser to let that person write the opinion," because after defending a position at length, people "tend to become even more convinced" than when they started.
He's a Snowflake: Stevens also distinguished himself as the only justice to spend a substantial part of each Supreme Court term away from Washington. He and his wife have a condominium in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and they spend two weeks a month there from November through April. . . . "I do much more work in Florida than I do here," Stevens told me, looking contented. He sometimes reads briefs on the beach. "One of my favorite memories is the time I was sitting" on the Supreme Court bench in Washington just after returning from Florida, he recalled. "I shook the sand out of the brief!" (Law Blog Dictionary: Snowbirds move down to Florida for the whole season; snowflakes, like Justice Stevens, go back and forth.)
On Originalism: Stevens's final judicial theme is that the court has an obligation to protect ideals of equality and liberty in light of the nation's entire history, rather than legalistically parsing the original understanding of the Constitution. . . . "Originalism is perfectly sensible. I always try to figure out what the original intent was, but to say that's the Bible and nothing else counts seems to me quite wrong."
He Ain't Going Nowhere: Stevens told me that he has no intention of retiring. "Harry Blackmun used to complain about how hard the job was, how it was a real burden, and he was a workaholic," Stevens told me. "But I like the job," he said with a laugh. "I wouldn't stay here if I weren't enjoying it, and I'm really privileged to have this job." He looked at me earnestly. "It's not everybody my age who is able to continue to do work that he likes to do," he said. "I think I'm making probably a positive contribution at it still, so I don't think I have an obligation to quit, although probably a lot of people out there think I should."

On June 18, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) canceled the Washington Redskins trademark. For unknown reasons, President Obama and other congressional members continue trying to force the Redskins to change their name to something less offensive.
When the USPTO canceled the team's trademark, they claim to have done so because the term is offensive, but if the topic is offensive and no one complains, is it still offensive? The Washington Times addressed this question. On Tuesday, the publication reported the USPTO has never received any complaints about the alleged disparaging team name.
The subject made radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh appear correct on a prediction made earlier this year. On January 9, he told his audience the Obama administration would use the USPTO as a weapon to force the team to change its name.
However, the trademark cancellation may not stand. In 2003, a federal court decision overruled an earlier attempt to cancel the team's trademark. Bob Raskopf, the team's trademark attorney, said he expects the same result from 2003. The USPTO office cannot force the team to change its name. It means the team cannot prevent others from using the team name.
According to the Redskins website, the team name became official on February 13, 1937. After the Boston Braves left Boston and moved to Washington, the team changed its name to the Redskins. They have played in five Superbowls, and have won three of the five. The team's last Superbowl appearance occurred on January 26, 1992. The Redskins defeated the Buffalo Bills 37-24.
On May 25, 1999, Daniel Snyder paid $800 million for the team and became its fourth owner. The team has held the name for 77 years. Although politicians and protesters have tried to persuade Snyder to change the name, he has stood firm, and said he will not change the name—for now.

Disease Proof
Aerial Pesticides Bring on Health Problems
Since California officials decided to spray for the apple moth, many citizens are now reporting health issues. More from Jane Kay of The San Francisco Chronicle:
Hundreds of families in Monterey and Santa Cruz counties reported health problems last year after the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the California Department of Food and Agriculture ordered an aerial spray of pesticides containing synthetic insect pheromones and other ingredients in a campaign to eradicate the light brown apple moth.If its safe, why are people getting sick?
Planes doused houses, decks, yards, cars, city streets - and anybody who happened to be outside. Afterward, some residents complained of shortness of breath, chest tightness, burning in the throat, eye irritation and muscle and headaches, among other symptoms.
In spite of the complaints, U.S. and state agricultural officials say they intend to aerial spray every county in the Bay Area starting in August. They'll return to Monterey and Santa Cruz counties in June.
California Secretary of Agriculture A.J. Kawamura and federal agriculture officials assert that the pheromone pesticides are safe. Without eradication, they say, the nonnative pest spotted for the first time in the United States in California last year could spread to and damage up to 250 different crops in the state.

And that's just the start of it. They are planning to spray the ENTIRE Bay Area in August 2008 for $74.5 million. Ironically, the pesticide company selected also owns Pom Pom Juice, Fiji Water, and Paramount Almonds. Paramount Almonds is the private brand almonds for Trader Joes and Costco. These almonds are now sprayed with propylene oxide.

why is there not a legalized amount of this pesticide that you can spray?

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer's Bad Luck Returns
He fell off his bike again.
Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer landed himself in the hospital on Friday after falling off of his bike near the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the AP reports. A spokesperson for the Supreme Court said the 74-year-old underwent "reverse shoulder replacement surgery for a proximal humerus fracture" on Saturday. The procedure was successful, and he's expected to make a full recovery. This isn't the first time Breyer has injured himself while biking: "The justice previously broke his collarbone in an accident in 2011 and sustained broken ribs and a punctured lung in a bicycle mishap in 1993, before he joined the court." No word on whether anyone has used his hospital stay as an opportunity to rob one of his houses, which is also something that happens to him a lot.

Travel search site SkyScanner report more searches from the UK for 2012 summer flights to Málaga than for any other destination. Not that there's anything new about that of course. Still, at a time when it's been widely claimed that a hike in airport charges is likely to mean a slump in the number of holidaymakers visiting Spain this year, it's good to know that the Costa del Sol continues to be the destination of choice!
According to a survey recently released by the Ministry of Industry, 9.2 million foreign tourists visited Spain in the first three months of the year. That's an increase of 2.6% compared with the same period in 2011.

Our group of about 25 packed into a bus with beach balls, crafts, hygiene kits, teaching materials, reading glasses, acupuncture supplies and more and headed to Smile Africa for the first day of our Hope Festival. We were met by 420 karamojong children standing and singing songs of greeting. The air was filled with excitement as tents dotted the grounds to house the youth and pastor's wives who were arriving to learn from the Choose to Wait program; our medical team presented health and hygiene classes; there was a Bible study and singing. Each of the pastor's wives received a hygiene kit and a mosquito net. They were served tea and donuts and a wonderful lunch prepared in the new kitchen. The children sang; were told Bible stories; played with beach balls and partied. Last year Carolyn Griebe realized the widows were struggling each day over open fires to cook for the 420 Karamojong children and when she saw the smoke polluting the air around the women and children she asked if she could raise money toward a state-of-the-art kitchen. We dedicated the kitchen yesterday and Carolyn brought a sign to hang over the door (created by her Pastor Leland). It reads "Marty's Kitchen" in memory of Carolyn's husband Marty who died of cancer two years ago. It was a wonderful celebration as we all rejoiced together and marveled at this new smokeless kitchen which uses half the wood as cooking outside. We also had a lot of activity going on in the newly built/not quite finished Bethel Medical Center. Another US medical team (www.helptheleastofthese.com ) was on hand with two doctors and other medical people. We teamed up with them and used every room in the clinic. We began with the children who were weighed and had their vitals taken. Adults sat under a tent waiting their turn. The doctors examined patients; prescribed meds and prayed over one before sending them to the next rooms where there were temporary pharmacies, Mae's eye clinic; Dr Victoria's acupuncture room and the balloon animal room next to the exit. What a great festival! We are looking forward to tomorrow!
Helping women with business opportunities is one of the functions of Hope 4 Kids women's concerns dept. Grace has been in our hearts since be began our work here in Uganda. She is a widow and HIV positive—two stigmas which causes her to be an outcast. We provided her with a home and placed her children in boarding school. She receives HIV medication. Each time we return we check on Grace. Several months ago her four-year-old grandson, whom she is raising found matches and practices lighting them while Grace was working the fields. She returned to find her house on fire. The house withstood the flames but all the furnishings were lost. Fortunately a H4KI team was there and a team member paid for new basic furniture. Mark H brought a small solar oven to show to Smile Africa and True Vine with the idea of them getting large solar ovens to bake bread and items to sell. He wanted to give the small oven to a widow and when I told him about Grace he decided she should be the recipient. We arrived at Grace's home and after many joyous hugs and greetings Mark brought out the solar oven. Grace watched in amazement as Mark explained how to use it and showed her the bread pans. He talked about banana bread which Grace had never tasted so I promised to return on Friday with the ingredients and teach her how to make it. Mark poured water into a pan to demonstrate how it heats up. Fascinated, Grace brought out greens and cooked them for her lunch. If you look at the photo gallery you will see more pictures of Grace being trained by Mark and her first meal of greens.

Wow! What a safari! Our team of nearly 50 headed over to Queen Elizabeth National Park for our Hope 4 Kids excursion of an amazing African safari. For the first part of the safari we divided into two groups for the boat tour on Lake Edward. Fortunately for us all of the animals were out getting their water for the day. Immediately we saw a herd of elephants and multiple schools of hippos. Matiya spotted several large crocodiles resting on the shore. It was really interesting to see the hippos intermingled with the buffalo and crocodiles. All of the animals seemed happy living so close in proximity to each other. It was a perfect day for a safari; it was overcast and we had a wonderful breeze. After our two-hour boat ride, we landed on shore to eat some yummy made-on-the-spot peanut butter sandwiches: Tablecloth compliments of Michael! He graciously gave up his fresh shirt so we could have some place clean to make sandwiches. After lunch it was time to look for the lions. We hopped on the buses and took our first trip around the lion area to see if we could locate any. At the entrance of the park, the park rangers said we would be lucky to see a lion one out of four days. In the paper today, it said the lions were close to extinction at Queen Elizabeth Park. There are only around fifty and recently a couple of lions have been found poisoned. Regardless, we had our hopes up and shared with the team other lion sightings from past safari trips. At last, two lions! In the distance we were fortunate to see two female lions sunning themselves in the mid-afternoon sun. Just as fast as they appeared, they were gone! A rainstorm came and the lions headed into the bush for cover. Overall, we had an awesome safari! On the way back to the hotel, we stopped at the Uganda Equator for some creative pictures.
Mark went to the village his church supports, Mumutumba and preached on what it takes to be a Christian. People came to be prayed for. They were all excited to see him. Pastor Justin attended and Mark spoke with him about starting a men's ministry and will share materials with him later in the week. After ward he walked around and was updated on all the projects and had lunch at Pastor Jessica's house. He was able to check on a man whose wife left him with seven children. Mark and his wife Desiree fixed up his home in July. It looked good. The children have been going through treatment for scabies and looked happy and well. Wendy, Carolyn, Donna, and Rachel attended True Vine. We loved seeing all our friends and some of our sponsored children. I saw my friend Grace who is doing well (we wrote about her in our book, God, Why don't you hear their prayer—have you read it?). This afternoon we all worked on organizing items for our hope festival. Elizabeth called from Kenya where she is visiting orphans and we are anxiously waiting for her arrival tomorrow as well as the rest of the team who will be arriving from Ft. Portal. We'll be having updates from all of them in the next day or two so keep checking back!
While the rest of the team went to Ft Portal four of us climbed into a van with some of the team luggage and headed straight for Tororo. Carolyn, Mark, Donna and Rachel decided to go right to work and prepare for the week ahead.
Upon our arrival we met up with Wendy who has been in Tororo for the past 12 days preparing for our Hope Festival. She has rented tents, chairs, and a ton of other necessary equipment as well as ordering food and making sure all is in order.
Our Hope Festival to be held at Smile Africa Ministries was dreamed up by Carolyn a number of months ago. Carolyn has worked tirelessly volunteering many hours of her time to organize a three day festival for the women and children. She also collected hygiene kits, vacation Bible school supplies and raised the funds to put on the festival. She recruited team members to carry supplies and sign up for duties.
We decided to add a fourth day to the festival and hold a conference for the men when Mark asked what we were going to do for the men. Mark, Robert and several of the guys will team up with Ugandan men and have come up with topics about men in the family and what it means to be a Christian husband and father.
One of the young men for whom Wendy pays school fees showed up at the hotel and patiently waited several hours for Wendy to arrive—she was painting a widow's home—just to show her his school certificates and grades. He was proud to show her he is in the top of his class. If Wendy hadn't come along to pay his school fees he would have been forced to drop out of school and to face a bleak future. Now this bright young man can work hard and dares to dream.
We went to dinner with Pastor Ruth and Patsy and talked about last minute details for the festival and when jet lag set in all retired for the evening.
Friday, November 7, 2008by: Angie Simon
We made it! Gosh, it feels like I was here two weeks ago. Oh, that's right, I was! After traveling thirty-some-odd-hours we are all settled in the Gulf View Hotel in Entebbe, Uganda. The team members made it one piece, in great spirits and out of fifty-five people we are only missing two Hope 4 Kids bags that missed a connection. Many of the team members who have traveled to Africa with us before were excited to see old friends like Pastor Wilber, Hillary, Agree, Isaac, Michael, Bobby and Godfrey when they greeted us at the airport.
We have alot of luggage! It took a few minutes to divide up all the luggage that was traveling to Fort Portal and Tororo. We barely made it back to the hotel before we got hit with a welcomed rainstorm. Tomorrow, most of the team leaves early for Fort Portal where we will visit our sponsored kids at The Sunrise House. Rachel, Carolyn and a few others will head to Tororo to get ready for the much anticipated Festival of Hope! We will enjoy "laying on our ribs for the night."

Sigh, Whitney Tilson Is Now LONG Netflix
- Printer-friendly version

He was short as the stock went to the moon, now he is long as it falls off a cliff...Nice!
This is the year that turned many once invincible hedge fund managers into nothing more than front running buffoons.
Deaf leading the blind!
Tilson and his investors, that is!
Through Sep Tilson's fund is down 30% - OUCH!
The Nasdaq is to equity markets as levees are to New Orleans.
It's been that way since 1999 and is even more so that way today, given leverage, the structure/composition of the bagholders.
Anyone with a scintilla of intellect should be able to spot the true break point - regardless of The Bernank's (or any other central bankster's) or the PPT's inevitably doomed rescue attempts.
Most importantly, however, It's really a doomed exercise to try and keep a Ponzi going with an employment crisis (with jobs and their relative wages and benefits forming the foundation of any sustainable economic activity) as deeply entrenched, the likes of which we (not just in the U.S., but even more so in Europe, and now in China - where there is a risk of the fomenting of a Jade Revolution) now face .
But nice shot, Bernank (from a purely dysfunctional Keynesian perspective - even if none other than JM Keynes would brand Bernanke you a pure sociopath and complete failure of an economist, macroforecaster and human being).Hey Bernank, Nice Shot
Time for Bedtime for Bonzo! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zHN4vCfwh4
glad i are not the dumbest invester on planit Earth.
Next up for the Whit-meister, he tell us he is a short of CMG?
Whitney Tilson, a.k.a. RobotTrader?
Properly timing the fall of a giant leads to fantastic returns. Take for example RIM and NFLX. While it may require more than one erroneous entry point, tight stops and disciplined trading can yield great returns.
Watch CMG, AZO, HSY and SBUX for topping formations.
Note: Don't retort by stating that PMs are the only way to go. This post is meant for traders to ponder; no need to plaster replys that match those on every other ZH post!
Good point, also check out Bubble 2.0 stocks AMZN and PCLN.
PCLN has nice triple top.
Feel free to load up on some speculative OTM Jan 2012 PUTS for fun and profit.
You can thank me later.
I hear you.
How much were, say, $100 puts going for on NFLX a few months ago? Pennies? So you spent a few $US along the way. Once you were correct the payoff would have been enormous.
Pennies a share into $$$ a share in a few months. A $100 contract now worth $4000 or more.
Exactly. One can stay solvent a long time playing these overinflated bubble stocks this way, then eventually will pay off when they pop.
The recent stories about Ray Dalio made me wonder whether his "organization" and his famous "meetings" with his people and his desire to be "challenged" etc. are not all bullshit, a beard or front to hide the fact he is merely just one more (successful) frontrunner with inside information. Like Madoff's "organization" and "proprietary trading strategy" were.
on a long enough timeline a chimp can type up Hamlet
"Stock goes down, you short it ? Stock goes down again, you buy it ? Farewell and adieu... ...!"
The cage goes into the water... you go into the water... the sharks in the water... our Shark...
Farewell and adieu, to you fair spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain.
For we've just received orders, for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore, shall we see you again.
Back home we got a taxidermy man. He gonna have a heart attack when he see what I brung him!

Hey, this guy is using my patented get-poor-quick trading strategy... i'd sue if i could afford the legal fees.
Then would'nt suing be included within your get-poor-quick plan?
Get Po, Mo-Quicka!
Short low, cover high, buy high, sell low
Someone from the govt needs to hire this guy quick and put him in charge of something really important.
Robo's fanclub has exploded to the upside!!!
1 Follower and counting!

what else does he got?

Wonder if he owns first solar too.

A Brexit silver lining? Mortgage rates back near the bottom again
With interest rates already hovering near historic lows — and then getting kicked down a notch by the "Brexit" surprise — another chance for homeowners to refinance a mortgage at near-bottom rates appears to be under way.

Probably a good thing it's not in 3D - you'd shoot your eye out...
Got a Samsung PN60E530 for $850 in the days leading up to Black Friday. It's a dumb, 2D TV but I've got a PS3 for streaming/apps/etc and I'm just not very interested in 3D. And with only a PS3 and cable box, only having 2 HDMI inputs wasn't a drawback for me. It's replacing a 40" Samsung LCD that will end up in the guest room (I don't want a TV in my bedroom).
You can spend a lot of time and money picking out the perfect floral bouquet for your date ... but you're probably better off checking if you have bad breath and taking the porn out of the glove compartment.

Featuring Cassie Blanca
Date October 7th, 2010
Photos 62
44G-cupper Cassie Blanca is back at XLGirls and the blonde bomber's ready to be dicked, licked, reamed and creamed in a fresh pictorial and video. Cassie is relatively new at hot and horny modeling, compared to XLGirls like, say, Samantha or Sapphire. But she is a damn fast learner. The fact is, Cassie downplayed her superjumbos for a long time. "I always wore big sweaters," Cassie informed your friendly editorial staff. "The biggest cup size I'd ever find in a store was a DD so I had been wearing that for years. Then recently I went to get measured and they were like, 'Are you crazy?' And my bra size turned out to be a G. I was more of the nice girl who would do their homework. I was scared to express myself or experiment. Now if anyone suggests anything I'm willing to try it.

Schweizer, L; Nellen, D; Basler, K (2003). Requirement for Pangolin/dTCF in Drosophila Wingless signaling. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS), 100(10):5846-5851.
View at publisher
The Wingless (Wg) protein is a secreted glycoprotein involved in intercellular signaling. On activation of the Wg signaling pathway, Armadillo is stabilized, causing target genes to be activated by the transcription factor Pangolin (Pan). This study investigated the roles of Pan in the developing wing of Drosophila by clonal analysis. Three different aspects of wing development were examined: cell proliferation, wing margin specification, and wg self-refinement. Our results indicate that Pan function is critically required for all three of these processes. Consequently, lack of pan causes a severe reduction in the activity of the Wg target genes Distalless and vestigial within their normal domain of expression. Loss of pan function does not, however, lead to a derepression of these genes outside this domain. Thus, although Pan is positively required for the induction of Wg targets in the wing imaginal disk, it does not appear to play a default repressor function in the absence of Wg input. In contrast, lack of zygotic pan function causes a milder phenotype than that caused by the lack of wg function in the embryo. We show that this difference cannot be attributed to maternally provided pan product, indicating that a Pan repressor function usually prevents the expression of embryonic Wg targets. Together, our results suggest that for embryonic patterning the activator as well as repressor forms of Pan play important roles, while for wing development Pan operates primarily in the activator mode.

Is Reality Steve wrong about "Bachelor" Juan Pablo's final pick? Fans are wondering how the final rose could possibly be given out to this season's villain, Nikki Ferrell, but it wouldn't be the first time the least-liked girl gets the guy. Remember Ben and Courtney?
- 2014 'Bachelor' spoilers: Juan Pablo & Nikki fighting after final rose ceremony
- Reality Steve: 'Bachelor' Juan Pablo lives with Camila's mom, Carla Rodriguez
So far this season, blogger Steve Carbone has been right-on with his week-by-week predictions about who will be eliminated and who moves on to the next episode.
Although there are plenty of skeptics out there after Carbone messed up with his final rose spoiler on Desiree Hartsock's season of "The Bachelorette", it looks like he will redeem himself this season.
Does ABC pay 'Bachelor' Juan Pablo to propose to Nikki on 'ATFR' special?
Unless the "Bachelor" producers got really creative and figured out a way to fake out the king of spoilers.
Creative? Not likely. The producers can't even come up with a date that's moderately exciting. Shopping and getting fish pedicures top the list for creative dates, so it's likely Reality Steve is spot on with his prediction this season.
It's been a lackluster season and after Juan Pablo's gay remarks, it's become even less appealing to watch the train wreck otherwise known as "The Bachelor."
Reality Steve writes on his blog that he certain that pediatric nurse Nikki Ferrell gets the final rose in the end, but it does not come with a proposal and a giant Neil Lane engagement ring.
Sounds like a realistic ending in light of the fact that "Bachelor" Juan Pablo seems to be more in love with himself, tweeting in all CAPS and taking Instagram selfies.

The Minnesota Wild have few roster spots with the emergence of their young stars. However, a few players still need to supplement the roster. The Wild enter the offseason with 14 unrestricted free agents and eight restricted free agents.
Here is restricted free agent right wing Justin Fontaine.
2013-14 Team(s): Minnesota Wild (NHL)
2013-14 Statistics: 66 games played, 13 goals, eight assists, 21 points, plus-6 rating, 26 penalty minutes, 1 power play goal, 1 game-winning goal, 79 shots on goal (regular season); 9 games played, 1 goal, 1 assist, 2 points, 2 penalty minutes, 13 shots on goal (playoffs)
Qualifying Offer: $660,000
Outlook: Sending him a qualifying offer is a no-brainer for the Wild. He finished fourth on the team with 13 goals in the regular season, despite being a healthy scratch several times during the season. He combined with Erik Haula at center and Nino Niederreiter or Matt Cooke at left wing to form a very good two-way third line in the postseason. He fits best on a checking line, but can move up to a scoring line if needed. The former Minnesota-Duluth Bulldog star is likely to remain with the Wild for at least another season.

Bobs Worth stamps his class on Lexus Chase
Gold Cup winner is back on track after a below-par run on his seasonal debut

It's hard to escape the conclusion that if Ireland's top Cheltenham Gold Cup hopes can't beat Bobs Worth on their home turf they can hardly be confidently expected to beat him when it really counts come March in the blue-riband.
Bobs Worth is after all the title-holder, a triple-festival winner who's unbeaten around the turf that matters most. And in winning Saturday's Lexus Chase at Leopardstown Nicky Henderson's star proved he is able to translate his class across the Irish Sea, doing so on the back of a lacklustre previous effort that had cast doubts on whether he might still set the standard among staying chasers.
Even allowing for Silviniaco Conti's King George defeat of Cue Card, there's little doubt now that the diminutive stayer remains the benchmark figure in terms of the Gold Cup.
That he is apparently destined to remain forever in the shadow of his stablemate Sprinter Sacre in the glamour stakes is hardly going to cause him any sleepless nights. For one thing there isn't a horse in training that can compete with Sprinter Sacre in profile terms, especially now that his irregular heart problems appears to have righted itself and he is set to go back to work, and another is that grit rather than flamboyance is Bobs Worth's speciality.
There was plenty of that on show in the way he overcame a mistake at the third last on Saturday, but what gets overlooked is the latent class Bobs Worth possesses too, and that was obvious in how he overhauled First Lieutenant and Rubi Ball in such style to win the €150,000 highlight.
"When they quickened into the straight he showed the pace he has," Barry Geraghty reported after a Grade One success for him and British champion trainer Nicky Henderson that helped bring both men back from the disappointment of Sprinter Sacre's dramatic reverse just 24 hours previously. "The ground being on the better side of soft definitely helped him."
'Gut instinct'
Henderson said yesterday he isn't ruling out a pre-Gold Cup run by Bobs Worth in Newbury's Argento Chase. "I would have thought that (not running again before Cheltenham) would be my gut instinct but we'll see how he is in 10 days time. It just shows what an up-and-down sport racing is. But he came back," he reported.
Sir Des Champs chased Bobs Worth home in last season's Gold Cup but was a lot further behind in fourth at the weekend in what was effectively his first start of the new campaign.
"Considering he fell at the third in the Durkan, and didn't really have a race, I thought it was quite a good run, one he can improve on," reported Willie Mullins, whose high-profile French import Rubi Ball stepped up considerably on his Irish debut over hurdles. "It was a very good run but plans for Rubi Ball will depend on the ground – he likes it testing."
Encouraging return
If the champion trainer missed out on a first ever Lexus success, Saturday was, nevertheless, an encouraging return to form after an opening half to the festival that could be best described as mixed.
However, Solwhit's defection from the Woodies Christmas Hurdle opened the door to Zaidpour to secure another top-flight triumph, as he went clear of Rule The World and Mala Beach in the closing stages. That proved to be the highlight of a Mullins-Ruby Walsh treble that also contained Sure Reef and the impressive chasing newcomer Djakadam.
Solwhit's trainer Charles Byrnes faces a race against time to get a warm-up run into his World Hurdle hero ahead of a title-defence in March.
"It looks like a problem with his fetlock, hopefully just a sprain. We'll have to see how he is next week. If he's not sound after three or four days, we'll have to investigate further, but it is nothing to do with his old injury," Byrnes said.
"It's going to be tough to get a prep race into him between now and the World Hurdle."

The organization Serving Children and Adults in Need (SCAN) will have to move from their location on Saunders in Las Plazas since they won't sign a two year extension.
LAREDO, TEXAS (KGNS) - A local non profit social services organization is being shown the door after the organization wouldn't sign an extension on their lease.
The organization, "Serving Children and Adults in Need" will have to move from their current location on Saunders in "Las Plazas" by the end of October.
They've been at that location for the past 17-years.
They wont sign an extension because they'll be moving to a permanent location in 8 to 12 months.
SCAN was hoping to lease month to month but could not work out a deal.
For now, they plan on moving into temporary buildings around Laredo.

Purchasing a new game console is an awesome feeling. Better graphics for new games, more memory space in the hard drive and better online gaming experience. The only problem, some of the games would take up more memory space due to some of the features, but leave you with less hard drive space.
Paul Tassi of Forbes.com reported first hand today, February 23, about his own Xbox One console experience and notices that his hard drive is shrinking quite fast. He constantly has to keep downloading new attachments and customization that promises to "fix the bugs."
"When installing the COD update, I was troubled to discover that in just the first few months of owning my Xbox One, I'd already filled 38% of its hard drive space. When I first bought the system, 500 GB seemed like a bottomless pit of storage space, but it seems I was blinded by being used to my dinky 20GB 360 that required me to delete DLC every time I wanted to install more DLC."
This is due to the fact that console gaming is trying to push people into downloading more games instead of buying physical copies. Tassi spoke with a fan online that only downloaded games for his Xbox One system during the three months after it's release.
"I spoke to one avid Xbox One fan online who says that he's tried to be the wave of the future and only download games for the system. He's downloaded 16 games so far (of varying sizes), and three months after release, his One is already 70% full."
It doesn't really matter the size of the hard drive, it's the content that will most likely take up the space you purchased the system for. This makes you miss the old-school gaming when hard drives wasn't really an issue. You blow into the game cartridge, slam it into the console, play the game and hope you can beat it because you can't save any of your contents. Those were the days.

Kerry on plane disaster: 'Moment of truth" for Putin
The United States upped pressure on Vladimir Putin on Sunday over his response to the Malaysia Airlines jet shoot-down in eastern Ukraine, with Secretary of State John Kerry noting on CNN that it was a "moment of truth" for the Russian president.
Kerry and key congressional lawmakers from both parties sharpened the focus on Putin to, as Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Dianne Feinstein said, "man up" and lead.
There was concern, however, that Moscow's behavior since Thursday's destruction of Flight 17 by a missile the United States believes was fired by Russian-backed rebels further underscores Putin's hardening preference for Cold War-era politics.
RELATED: Full Malaysia Airlines plane crash coverage
"This is going back to the days of Stalin, and Khrushchev and Brezhnev," Republican Rep. Peter King said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
"The way he's responding to a crisis, which he caused, which everyone knows he did, and yet he goes underground. This is what a mafia guy does. This is what a goon does. Not a world leader. Not someone in the civilized world."
Asked on CNN's "State of the Union" whether the incident has pushed U.S.-Russian relations back to Cold War-era levels, Feinstein simply said, "yes."
Outrage expressed
Governments from around the world have expressed outrage at the disorderly situation at the remote crash site about 40 miles from Russia's border and called on Putin to use his influence on the pro-Russian rebels.
Since the crash that killed nearly 300 people, the Ukrainian government and pro-Russian rebels have traded bitter accusations over who was responsible and what has been done since.
Russia has denied any involvement, and Putin said Ukraine's military campaign against the rebels was to blame.
But Secretary of State John Kerry said it would be "ridiculous" for the international community trust what Putin has said.
Kerry said there was a "buildup of extraordinary circumstantial evidence" that the rebels were behind it and that the suspect rocket system used was transferred to them from Russia, which denies it's military equipment crossed the border.
"This is a very, very critical moment for Russia to step up publicly and join in the effort in order to make sure there is a full-fledged investigation," Kerry told CNN's "State of the Union."
The crash site near the town of Torez in the Donetsk region is under rebel control and the situation was said to be far from organized.
Negotiations were being held for the release of nearly 200 recovered bodies, and there were reports some of the dead had been looted. International investigators have limited access.
Kerry said that he spoke Saturday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in what he called a "direct and tough conversation."
Russia needs to help ensure that investigators can conduct a thorough investigation, Kerry said.
"This is the moment of truth for Russia and for Mr. Putin," Kerry said.
Not shooting from hip
But while Kerry urged Russia to allow for a complete investigation, he did not lay out specific repercussions for the Russians. He said they are being discussed with European allies.
He added on "Fox News Sunday" that the United States wasn't going to "shoot from the hip," but instead respond in a "thoughtful way."
When pressed on "Meet the Press" that the Obama administration is giving Russia too much maneuvering room, Kerry said the world is "complicated."
He pointed to Russia's cooperation removing chemical weapons in Syria and other parts of the world.
"Russia is working with us in a cooperative way on the P5 + 1," which are the talks regarding Iran's nuclear program.
The Obama administration criticized
But Senator Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, said Kerry's response was not severe enough.
"He didn't call Putin the thug that he is. He didn't call for arming Ukraine so they can defend themselves," Graham said on "Meet the Press."
Reaction from Republicans plays into the ongoing narrative that Republicans paint of the President's foreign policy leadership as being weak and indecisive.
Tennessee Republican Sen. Bob Corker said the response by the Obama administration since Russia began its annexation of Crimea has been "timid and cautious."
It has "kept Putin from really paying a price inside his country for the actions that have been taken," he said on "Fox."
"The United States needs to end its tepid response," Michigan Rep. Mike Rogers, Chairman of the House Intelligence Community, said on ABC's "This Week."
He called for "aggressive" help for the Ukrainian military.
Others called for more even tougher sanctions on Russia's energy and banking sectors, which the administration escalated this past week just before the plane crash.
King, who sits on both the Homeland Security and Intelligence Committees, said global response should also consider relieving Russia from hosting the 2018 of the World Cup.
Pressure on Europeans
Kerry and Republicans and Democrats were in agreement, however, regarding the role of the Europeans
who have been reluctant to impose tough sanctions against Russia because of their reliance of Russian energy.
"We hope this will be a wake-up call for some countries in Europe that have wanted to stand back and give this more time and worry about the trade relationship," Kerry said on "Meet the Press," repeating a sentiment expressed by President Barack Obama last week.
Corker said the western countries response to Russia in the past six months has been "tragic."
"I've been indredibly discouraged by not only the U.S. response, but by the European response," he said on Fox.
On the same program, Sen. Bob Menendez, D-New Jersey, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said the United States and Europe have "to have a far more significant response than we've seen to date."
A new Cold War?
Members of Congress issued their own much more dire warning of Putin.
On "State of the Union," Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said, "Mr. Putin is returning to a Cold War" posture.
"And I think this is a game changer, what happened, the downing of this commercial flight by separatists tied to Putin," McCaul said.
Zbigniew Brzezinski, former national security adviser for Jimmy Carter, believes Putin, if anything, has started a new Cold War.
"He has gotten himself into horrendous jam. I strongly suspect that a lot of people in Russia, even not far away from him who are worried that Russia's status in the world is dramatically being undermined," Brzezinksi said Sunday on CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS."

That said, having soldier cost based on skill level on the hiring panel would be a nice feature and not that complex to implement. Something to consider when hiring soldiers, cheap fodder who will eventually get stronger or take a money hit and get a head start.

Portion control helps to lose and maintain weight
Portion control helps to lose and maintain weight – this is world wide known true. But practically sometimes it isn't so easy. Here are some tips, which can help to control portions of your meals:
1. Always eat from smaller plates – a small plate looks filled with lower amount of food, than big. It tricks the brain in believing you are consuming more than you actually are.
2. Eat small portions often, rather than fewer big portions. A simple theory in many healthy weight loss meal plans would be to eat every 3 to 4 hours interval. The body is most effective when eating smaller portions and eating frequently. In addition, this speeds up your metabolism and helps you feel satiated for a longer time. Even Hollywood celebrities, such as Megan Fox, often use five meals a day method to keep their shape.
3. Eat slower. Carefully chew each mouthful – enjoy the food, not just swallow. In this way, you will feel satiated more quickly and by eating less food. Besides, mastication will help break the food for easy digestion.
4. Always be conscious of what you're eating. Never watch television, work with computer or check your Blackberry, while you are eating, because then you are eating automatically and as a rule consume more food. In addition it influences badly your metabolism.
5. Serve the meals you are going to eat at given time. It means don't eat straight from the package, because then it is more difficult to control the amount of food you consume. Place the food you are going to eat on the plate, eat it moderately and then stop when finished, preventing overeating.
6. Fill your plate lean protein, fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables consist of dietary fiber, that bulks up food and consequently fills up and made your stomach full. Protein can fill you fast as the body could only handle fairly little at once. Both of these will enable you to limit the amount of calories you take in at one particular meal making portion control more convenient.

It is still hard for me to believe, but it did happen - first Limmud in Austria did take place in Vienna on November 13th. Couple of weeks before the event, when the most part of the preparation was already behind, the organizational team had a meeting with Clive Lawton, the man who founded the first Limmud 30 years ago in the United Kingdom. According to Clive, having returned from a Jewish educational festival in New York, he and his friends had the idea of organizing a similar event in the UK. This idea was said to be naive and unrealistic, as Jewish community in the UK was perceived as passive, discrete and lacked motivated young people comparing to the one in New York. Meanwhile, Clive was determined to realize his vision, which is now known as Limmud - at least so that do disprove that critical statement. As one of the coordinators of Limmud Vienna, I somehow feel just like Clive did 30 years ago.
Limmud is the internation festival of Jewish learning, one or several days of lectures, discussions, workshops, concerts, exhibitions and whatever else having a link with Jewish culture, tradition and identity. Here, in accordance with one of the core Jewish traditions, everyone has a chance to be both a teacher and a student, as long as he or she has something to share and is willing to discover something. Limmud is not a youth event, anyone can and encouraged to take part; still, obviously it requires young and active people to kick-start the organizational process. Holding a Limmud in Vienna, a city which Jewish background is legendary, seemed to me personally as a very honourable must-do. So the reason why Limmud didn't take place in Vienna till now can only be that these motivated youth was not there to start it. Being one of those people meant a big honour and an important mission.
I joined the team of Limmud approximately one month before the event itself, so closer to the ending phase of the preparation. However, there was still enough of work to do. It is the moment when you find out that behind the shiny idea and vision there lies tonnes of routine, hard but yet necessary work. And seeing this work resulting in a, I might say, successful event is a great feeling.
Of course, the first Limmud in Vienna didn't manage to reach the scope of the festivals in some other places for various reasons. However, what was pointed out by many guests is that this event managed to generate a very special, home and cozy atmosphere. Thanks to Lauder Business School which has offered us their facilities, bilingual English/German programme ranging from cooking workshop and theatre tryout to art exhibition and concert, of course with lectures on various topics in between. But the greatest reward was this special holiday joy, which everyone seem to smell during the last festive hours of the event, with exhibition, concert, wine, tired, hungry, but truly happy coordinators, volunteers and guests.
P.S. Someone asked me after the event: "So did you coordinators eventually get paid for the work you've done?". Had he visit the event itself, he would understand why I was laughing after his words.
