Madigan Presents at Conference
Dr. Tim Madigan, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, recently presented at the 42nd Annual Popular Culture Association/American Culture Association Conference in Boston. The conference took place on April 12.
Madigan presented, "Aristotle's Email: Friendship in the Age of Facebook," analyzing the ancient Greek philosopher's Nichomachean Ethics, a book series where he categorizes three different types of friendship: friendships of utility, friendships of pleasure, and friendships of the good. During the talk, Madigan explored how social networking has made it possible for friendships of all three categories to thrive and prosper in ways Aristotle could never have anticipated.
Madigan serves on the organization's executive board, and has arranged for its regional society, the Northeastern Popular/American Culture Association, to hold its annual meeting at Fisher this October. For more information about that event, contact him directly at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Assault accused duo's murder charge
Relevant offers
Two men have been charged with the murder of an Auckland man after a brutal assault.
Trevor Tafutu, 35, appeared at the Auckland District Court this morning where he was remanded in custody.
His co-accused, Simona Liatoa, 34, will appear in court this afternoon.
The men were initially charged with common assault, but the charges were upgraded to murder.
It is alleged the men killed Michael Roberts, 48, also known as Michael Lance Rapata, after an incident at his home in Three Kings about 7pm on February 11.
Tafutu was arrested by police in Grey Lynn and it is alleged Liatoa, went on the run but was arrested shortly afterward.
A third co-accused, Jason Macrockyn Tafutu, 19, was also arrested on the night of the alleged murder, but only faces charges of aggravated robbery.
All three men are charged with robbing Roberts of cannabis.
Tafutu will reappear in court next week.

Josh Polk knows a thing or two about punk. As the drummer in Whiskey Kiss, he's well acquainted with the notion that it takes little more than three chords and the truth to get the job done. Booking punk bands, on the other hand, isn't so turnkey. But that didn't stop Polk from talking the owners of Pasquini's (1336 East 17th Avenue) into putting on punk shows in their restaurant/bar. Although it's hoped that the place will be outfitted with a stage at some point, for the time being, Polk and company have been pushing the tables aside to make room for the bands. On Friday, March 16, Presidents Wives, a band featuring Karl Alvarez (All, Descendents), stops by the joint, with Charly "City Mouse" Fasano throwing down some spoken word. While the fare thus far has been primarily punk, Polk says he's willing to book artists pursuing pretty much any style, including poets and magicians. If punk in a pizza joint ain't enough to wet your appetite, Pasquini's has a killer happy hour every Thursday that doesn't kick off until 10 p.m. For less than ten bucks, you can get tore up from the floor up with $1 PBRs, Kamikaze shots and pizza slices. Punk yeah, man.

really good game. though i can't tell if it's bugged or i just can't do it but i can't get pico. the only actual way to get him is to get past that one block but dad can't get past the elevator part and their is no checkpoint to change characters. so i don't really know what's going on their but really good game. all i need is pico.
It's a great game bu t I can't get to P-bot, even though I have all the characters and all the health boosts. Do you know how I can get there?
Beat the game twice, still not getting the last trophy. Issues?
A good action platformer overall. Not the best out there, but definitely a good game worth the play.
My only question is...does ANYONE know the theme to the first level?

Obey My Jowls!
Below is a video of Ken Calvert on his support of the 241 Toll Road. Nevermind that his reputation is on the line. Nevermind that he worked to garner earmarks (see Of Pork and Ken, Feb. 16 2006) so that taxpayer money could be spent on "environmental studies" for the toll roads - millions upon millions of taxpayer dollars, despite the Transportation Corridor Agencies' continual assurances that no taxpayer money will go to the CONSTRUCTION of the toll road - a legally defensible claim. But, just like the road itself, wouldn't we rather have something that was actually substantial, something proper and appropriate, rather than just something that's ... legally defensible?

Bail petition of mining scam accused dismissed
Hyderabad: A special CBI court on Tuesday dismissed the bail petition of former Director of Mining and
Geology department V D Rajagopal, an accused in the Obulapuram
Mining Company scam.
The court had last week reserved its orders on two
petitions of Rajagopal, one for seeking bail and another for
special prisoner status in the jail.
While refusing the application for bail, the court,
however, accepted the request for granting him `special class
prisoner status`.
Rajagopal who is accused number three in the alleged
illegal mining scam, was arrested by CBI on November 12 after
the arrest of former Karnataka minister Janardhan Reddy and
his brother-in-law and MD of the Obulapuram Mining Company B V
Srinivasa Reddy, who are in judicial custody and lodged in the
Chanchalguda Jail here.
Senior IAS officer Y Srilakshmi was arrested in this case
yesterday and was today remanded in three-day CBI custody.
The central agency while opposing his bail application
had earlier charged him with misusing his official position
and misinterpreting the Mining and Mineral Acts to help OMC.
It had also contended that Rajagopal`s release on bail at this
juncture would hamper investigation and that public servants
who helped the accused are still being identified.
"Rajagopal misused his official position to help OMC when
he was holding the additional charge as the MD of the AP
Mineral Development Corporation in 2005. It was at this time
that he succeeded in getting the state government to issue a
memo in favour of OMC in allotting the mines to the company,"
the CBI had earlier alleged.
Rajagopal prevented deserving applicants from getting a
stretch of the mining lease of the 68.5 hectares in Obulapuram
of Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh which was handed over
to OMC, the CBI counsel had submitted.
He was also accused of getting his brother-in-law
appointed as a director of OMC and helping the mining company
"defraud" the exchequer.
However, Rajagopal`s counsel had argued that the CBI had
not made out any clear case against his client.

I like to go back to Metro Atlanta often enough to remember why I left. Atlanta, of course, is now one hellishly dense suburb that stretches from Chattanooga to Columbus with a tightly stitched tapestry of chain crap and traffic snarls in between. I creep along and remember.
"Clinton to Paint Trump as a Risk to World Order." Thus did page one of Thursday's New York Times tee up Hillary Clinton's big San Diego speech on foreign policy.
It was such a marvelous idea: the United States of America.
Bernie Sanders is clearly winding down his campaign for the Democratic nomination. In speeches and interviews over the weekend, he started turning his lance away from Hillary Clinton and toward Donald Trump.
It's Friday afternoon and I'm sitting on the front porch of an uninhabited trailer that until recently was the home of Homer Cantrell.
Everything was different, the day after.
The president spoke a personal word: "I never forget that I live in a house owned by all the American people and that I have been given their trust."
"Something startling is happening to middle-aged white Americans. Unlike every other age group, unlike every other racial and ethnic group ... death rates in this group have been rising, not falling."
I was about to share my own sob story, when I read that hundreds of passengers missed their flights at Chicago O'Hare International Airport because of hours-long security lines.
A few words in defense of pragmatism. That ideal has taken quite a beating lately, mostly at the hands of Bernie Sanders and his supporters.
We must frankly face the fact that the front runners in both political parties represent a new low, at a time of domestic polarization and unprecedented nuclear dangers internationally.
A funny thing didn't happen on the way to the digital revolution. It failed to empty out the cities.

Marriott Nets Hat-Trick as U18s Beat Cardiff
Saturday, 23rd Mar 2013 15:03
Striker Jack Marriott netted a hat-trick as Town's U18s beat Cardiff 4-2 at a snowy Playford Road this morning.
It was Marriott's fourth hat-trick of the season and third against Welsh opposition, the two U18s games against Swansea earlier in the season having both yielded triples, along with the home victory over Barnet at U21 level in September.
Russell Osman's boys, playing their final home game of the season, went in front via Marriott in the 28th minute.
The striker, who is one of the five second-year academy scholars to have been offered a one-year professional deal, made it 2-0 six minutes later.
Schoolboy Matthew Clarke, who netted the winner for the U21s against Millwall last week, hit the bar with a header soon afterwards, then created Town's third, a Bluebirds defender turning his cross past his own keeper in the 43rd minute.
Two minutes later, Marriott completed his hat-trick from Kyle Hammond's cross from the right.
The Welsh side pulled a goal back from the penalty spot just before the break after a foul by George Fowler, then added another during the second half.
Town's U21s are in action away against their Cardiff counterparts on Monday afternoon (KO 1pm).
U18s: Crowe, Hammond (Thompson 69), Fowler, Sowunmi, Robinson, Berkane, Willbye, Leddy, Clarke (Bishop 69), Lawrence (Timlin 69), Marriott. Unused: Marsden, Ramadan.

Overnight Ratings: NBC Up For PGA Tour; Mixed Bag For U.S. Open On CBS
The opening weekend of college football topped all sports telecasts over Labor Day weekend. NBC on Monday aired coverage of the final round of the PGA Tour Deutsche Bank Championship, which saw Webb Simpson defeat Chez Reavie in a playoff. That overnight is up 9.5% from a 2.1 for last year's final round, which saw Charley Hoffman win the event by five strokes. While NASCAR Sprint Cup Series coverage from Atlanta on ESPN was delayed until Tuesday, ESPN2 aired the Nationwide Series Great Clips 300 on Saturday night, earning a 1.1 overnight, flat compared to last year. CBS had a mixed bag for its three windows of U.S. Open coverage over the holiday weekend. The net earned a 1.3 overnight on Saturday (+8.3%), 1.6 on Sunday (-11.1%) and a 2.0 on Monday (flat). Listed below are overnight Nielsen ratings from broadcast TV sports telecasts over Labor Day weekend.

In a small East Texas town, three families of enormous wealth and power come to reside. The Tolivers are cotton tycoons, the Warwicks are lumber barons, and the DuMonts are retail magnates. The mutual respect formed between these elite families set up a social structure that will have long lasting repercussions through the generations for all their progeny. At the heart of "Roses" is Mary Toliver, a heroine we follow for 80 plus years. Stubborn and single-minded, Mary is a terrific and maddening character--epitomizing the strong-willed matriarch necessary for just such a tale. Her male counterpoint is Percy Warwick, a perfect foil and the love of Mary's life. Of course, these two are made for each other--and of course, they can never truly realize happiness in each other's arms. Their grand romance is played through the decades with enormous vigor, and their dance together is filled with small moments of joy but mostly great tragedy.
The first two-thirds of Meacham's tale is terrifically engaging. Fast paced and fun, I was whole-heartedly invested in the Mary and Percy story and all the subplots in the periphery.Read more ›
All that said, I was held by the storyline and the suspense until the last page, and I was never tempted to put the book down and not finish it. I think Ms. Meacham does capture the ambiance of small-town Texas (I grew up in a small town in West Texas myself) and it's entirely believable that there were two or three "ruling" families with immense wealth and property and also great respect from the town. She reveals the secrets of these families in a convincing manner and maintains plenty of suspense along the way.Read more ›
I did think that the third section dragged a bit. Maybe because I was so wrapped up in the past and Mary's life, I did not care as much about her great-niece Rachel, or maybe I was just tired. But things started to seem a bit redundant, especially the symbolism of the red and white roses.
But all in all, I HIGHLY recommend this book!
It is a quite volumnous book though it turned out to be a quick, enjoyable read.
It tells a story of the history of the DuMont, the Tolliver and Warwick families, who started their empire in small town in Texas, and it spanned over a century. It detailed their tragedies, their conquests, their romances and their heartache. A lot of the book focused on each family's professions, and while I know nothing about farming, I truly enjoyed the information and came to understand it in a way I had never before imagined.
The author's descriptions of the characters, the time period, and overall her attention to detail just swept me away to a magical era in a way that was not cumbersome or boring, and I did not feel the need to skim or pass over this book at all. Instead, I savored every word. It had the feel of Gone With The Wind, in that it was an epic love story, yet bittersweet.
I highly recommend this book to anyone that likes a good old fashioned saga.

Obama, Boehner's Own Words on Fiscal Cliff, Taxes
Nov. 9 (Bloomberg) –- U.S. President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, state their positions on ways to avert the so-called fiscal cliff and the outlook for negotiations between the White House and congressional leaders. If Congress doesn't act by the end of the year, $607 billion in automatic spending cuts and tax increases are scheduled to take effect starting in January. That was part of a deal last year to raise the federal debt ceiling. This report also contains comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke. (Excerpts. Source: Bloomberg)

Excellent 4.2 /5 from 286 reviews
We had an amazing stay at Kimpton Monaco, the staff was great. Even suggested an amazing coffee shop for us. I def plan on staying here again and will refer others. The young lady during checkin (Erika) was so friendly and very accommodating.
Very friendly staff,, who did everything to make sure our stay not just in their hotel but in Washington DC an ultimate pleasure
We stayed one night. The third floor room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. If I could change three things it would be: 1. Improve the water pressure serving the shower. 2. Provide in-room coffee making items. (Free coffee was offered in the lobby, which was nice.)3. Clean up food service items in the hallways in a more timely manner. We saw trays and dirty dishes sitting outside rooms on our floor for 24 hours. The restaurant is closed for remodeling, but a take-out breakfast is available in the lobby and there are plenty of food options in the neighborhood. We live in Washington, DC, but chose to stay in a hotel the night of July 4 as a special treat. For the tourist, however, it would be a wonderful option. The hotel is within walking distance of the national Mall, attractions, restaurants, and shopping. The Smithsonian's Museum of American Art/National Portrait Gallery is right across the street.
Great location
The hotel was fantastic and the staff was great.

Estate has been in Probate over a year.
This sounds more like a communication problem between you and the lawyer. Have you been told why closing has been delayed?

Proceed with extreme caution and confer with another attorney if your current lawyer is not communicating. Good luck.See question

I'm sorry for the loss of your mother. I agree with Mr. Early. It's probable that the Trust will control distribution of assets that were owned by and titled into Trust ownership, while the Will controls what other assets were not owned by the Trust.

My mom is on both property deeds one they lived in one they rented out in another county. Also two cars only in dads name. Do any of this need to go through probate.
I'm sorry for your loss. Whether probate is necessary in order to distribute title to the real estate depends greatly on the way your parents names appear on each deed.

Probate could have been avoided if you were on both the mortgage and the deed, as joint tenants with right of survivorship. I assume you were added to the deed after the mortgage was taken out - which creates additional legal issues. You really would benefit from talking with a knowledgeable probate attorney to evaluate your options. Give the attorney all relevant documentation so he or she can best advise you. Good luck.See question
The trust would be a "Revocable Living Trust".
In general, not a problem, unless you're trying to use it to convey guns or weapons that he may be prohibited from possessing when he's released. Probably it's more important who will be the Successor Trustee. You really should confer with an experienced attorney in the field of Trusts and Estates.See question

Fish-friendly hydropower is the goal of international team
Think of the pressure change you feel when an elevator zips you up multiple floors in a tall building. Imagine how you'd feel if that elevator carried you all the way up to the top of Mt. Everest — in the blink of an eye.
Colorized photo of the swim bladder of a smallmouth bass.
That's similar to what many fish experience when they travel through the turbulent waters near a dam. For some, the change in pressure is simply too big, too fast, and they die or are seriously injured.
In an article in the March issue of the journal Fisheries, ecologists from the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and colleagues from around the world explore ways to protect fish from the phenomenon, known as barotrauma.
Among the findings: Modifying turbines to minimize dramatic shifts in pressure offers an important way to keep fish safe when passing through dams. The research is part of a promising body of work that aims to reduce such injuries by improving turbine designs in dams around the world.
PNNL researchers are working with officials and scientists from Laos, Brazil, and Australia — areas where hydropower is booming — to apply lessons learned from experience in the Pacific Northwest, where salmon is king and water provides about two-thirds of the region's power. There, billions of dollars have been spent since 1950 to save salmon endangered largely by the environmental impact of hydropower.
"Hydropower is a tremendous resource, often available in areas far from other sources of power, and critical to the future of many people around the globe," said Richard Brown, a senior research scientist at PNNL and the lead author of the Fisheries paper.
"We want to help minimize the risk to fish while making it possible to bring power to schools, hospitals, and areas that desperately need it," added Brown.
Harnessing the power of water flowing downhill to spin turbines is the most convenient energy source in many parts of the world, and it's a clean, renewable source of energy to boot.
In Brazil, several dozen dams are planned along the Amazon, Madeira and Xingu rivers — an area that teems with more than 5,000 species of fish, and where some of the largest hydropower projects in the world are being built. In southeastern Australia, hydropower devices are planned in the area drained by the Murray-Darling river system. And in Southeast Asia, hundreds of dams and smaller hydro structures are planned in the Lower Mekong River Basin.
The authors say the findings from a collaboration that spans four continents improve our understanding of hydropower and will benefit fish around the globe. New results about species in the Mekong or Amazon regions, for instance, can inform fish-friendly practices in those regions of the United States where barotrauma has not been extensively studied.
Dams vary considerably in the challenges they pose to migrating fish, and the challenges are magnified when a fish must pass through more than one dam or hydro structure. At some, mortality is quite high, while at others, such as along the Columbia River, most fish are able to pass over or through a single dam safely, thanks to extensive measures to keep fish safe. Some fish spill harmlessly over the top, while others pass through pipes or other structures designed to route fish around the dam or steer them clear of the energy-producing turbines.
Still, at most dams, the tremendous turbulence of the water can hurt or disorient fish, and the blades of a turbine can strike them. The new study focuses on a third problem, barotrauma — damage that happens at some dams when a fish experiences a large change in pressure.
Depending on its specific path, a fish traveling through a dam can experience an enormous drop in pressure, similar to the change from sea level to the top of Mt. Everest, in an instant. Just as fast, as the waters swirl, the fish suddenly finds itself back at its normal pressure.
Those sudden changes can have a catastrophic effect on fish, most of which are equipped with an organ known as a swim bladder — like a balloon — to maintain buoyancy at a desired depth. When the fish goes deeper and pressures are greater, the swim bladder shrinks; when the fish rises and pressure is reduced, the organ increases in size.
For some fish, the pressure shift means the swim bladder instantly expands four-fold or eight-fold, like an air bag that inflates suddenly. This rapid expansion can result in internal injuries or even death.
Factors at play include the specific path of a fish, the amount of water going through a turbine, the design of the turbine, the depth of water where the fish usually lives, and the physiology of the fish itself.
"To customize a power plant that is the safest for the fish, you must understand the species of fish in that particular river, their physiology, and the depth at which they normally reside, as well as the tremendous forces that the fish can be subjected to," said Brown.
PNNL scientists have found that trying to keep minimum pressure higher in all areas near the turbine is key for preventing barotrauma. That reduces the amount of pressure change a fish is exposed to and is a crucial component for any turbine that is truly "fish friendly." Preventing those extremely low pressures also protects a turbine from damage, reducing shutdowns and costly repairs.
Brown and PNNL colleague Zhiqun (Daniel) Deng have made several trips to work with scientists in Southeast Asia, where dozens of dams are planned along the Mekong River and its tributaries. The Mekong starts out high in Tibet and travels more than 2,700 miles, touching China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. The team estimates more than 1,200 species of fish make their home in the Mekong, including the giant Mekong catfish and the giant freshwater stingray, as well as the endangered Irrawaddy dolphin.
The scientists estimate that the region's fish account for almost half of the protein in the diet of the people of Laos and nearly 80 percent for the people of Cambodia. Four out of five households in the region rely heavily on fish for food, jobs, or both.
"Many people in Southeast Asia rely on fish both for food and their livelihood; it's a huge issue, crucial in the lives of many people. Hydropower is also a critical resource in the region," said Deng, a PNNL chief scientist and an author of the paper.
"Can we reduce the impact of dams on fish, to create a sustainable hydropower system and ensure the food supply and livelihoods of people in these regions? Can others learn from our experiences in the Pacific Northwest? This is why we do research in the laboratory — to make an impact in the real world, on people's lives," added Deng.
The same team of scientists just published a paper in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, focusing broadly on creating sustainable hydro in the Lower Mekong River Basin. The paper discusses the potential for hydropower sources in the region (30 gigawatts), migratory patterns of its fish, the importance of fish-friendly technology, and further studies needed to understand hydro's impact on fish of the Mekong.
Authors of the Fisheries paper include scientists from PNNL, the National University of Laos, and the Living Aquatic Resources Research Center in Laos, the Federal University of São João Del-Rei in Brazil, the University of British Columbia; and from Australia, the Port Stephens Fisheries Institute in New South Wales, the Narrandera Fisheries Centre in New South Wales, and Fishway Consulting Services. PNNL's work in the area has been funded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, and AusAid, the Australian Agency for International Development.

Leather desk products from other manufacturers simply do not compare. I am even more impressed by the level of customer service - I will most certainly be back.

EQC floor level assessments 'inadequate'

Christchurch Earthquake 2011
Shonky floor level measurements made by people hired by the Earthquake Commission (EQC) to check Christchurch's post-quake housing stock led to "at least some poor or incorrect assessments", says New Zealand's surveying institute.
The New Zealand Institute of Surveyors (NZIS) has published a report examining Ministry of Building, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) guidelines for checking if floors are tilted.
The report's recommendations come in the wake of complaints from some Christchurch homeowners who are affected by EQC rulings that their houses were not sufficiently damaged to warrant repairs.
NZIS says assessment surveys have been carried out by a wide variety of people "all with varying levels of measurement knowledge and skill".
There is evidence of "at least some" poor or incorrect assessments due to an "apparent failure to consider a wider suite of assessment criteria" and "incorrect ... or inadequate floor levels being obtained".
The report's lead author, Emeritus Professor of Surveying John Hannah, told Radio NZ this morning that homeowners struggled to trust assessments carried out by people who were not qualified.
"I guess it is a bit like building a house... I would be reluctant to employ someone who has inadequately trained as a builder," he said.
EQC engineering advisor Tim Day told Radio NZ professional surveyors were already being brought in where cases were contentious or might involve legal action.
"As far as I am aware we have not had any negative feedback on the floor level surveys that we have undertaken," he said.
Christchurch-based registered land surveyor Adrian Cowie told Radio NZ the consequences of not using professionals were dire.
"Houses are... are being left with major structural damage that is not being repaired because EQC has not tested levels properly," he said.
Cowie previously told The Press a lack of visible damage was not an indication floor levels had not changed.
He had worked on premises in the past that seemed unscathed at first, but were alarmingly uneven on closer examination.
