Best Buy: On the road to extinction?
Best Buy has been beseiged by bad news this holiday season.
Could one of the Twin Cities' largest companies be on the road toward ending up in the tar pit of retailers along with Circuit City and Ultimate Electronics?
Possibly. A Forbes piece published yesterday makes a strong case that Richfield-based Best Buy is headed for extinction.
?> The piece cites stagnating market share, declining stock value, and a disappointing third-quarter earnings report as indicators that Best Buy is going bankrupt "gradually, then suddenly."
The future of retail, Forbes' Larry Downes writes, are online-only retailers like Amazon that focus on providing outstanding customer service.
Downes writes:
The new conventional wisdom says that big box retailers like Best Buy are going the way of the dinosaur. Online giants, notably Amazon, are the future. Online retailers are more efficient, because they lack physical locations, and so can offer better prices. Shopping online is also more convenient. On the web, consumers can shop anywhere they are, day or night.
In addition to the negative earnings report, Best Buy has been taking a PR beating after announcing just days before Christmas that it would not be able to process some of its online orders, including some made the day after Thanksgiving.
In a statement released Dec. 21, Best Buy said:
Due to overwhelming demand of hot product offerings on BestBuy.com during the November and December time period, we have encountered a situation that has affected redemption of some of our customers' online orders. We are very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused, and we have notified the affected customers.
Downes bludgeons Best Buy for the passivity of that statement, writing that "the honest and appropriate" statement would've said: "Due to poor inventory management and sales forecasting of the most popular products during our key sales season, we can't fill order we promised to fill weeks ago in time for Christmas."
The online forum at BestBuy.com is filled with comments from outraged shoppers, one of whom writes"
"As a Minnesotan I preferred to do my business with a Minnesota-based company. But I can say with honesty that I won't shop at Best Buy again."
Given that a 20 percent increase in online revenue over last year was one of the few bright spots in Best Buy's recent earning report, the fiasco over online sales could represent another step toward the proverbial big-box tar pit.

Let me begin by saying this upfront, I don't work for Apple, I don't own Apple Stock, and whether you buy an iPad, Xoom, a laptop or a pad of paper and pencil I don't get anything for writing this. I'm not an Apple "fanboy" although I can give credit where credit is due and lately Apple has deserved a lot of credit for some of their products.
Physical Characteristics
The iPad 2 is absurdly thin. More importantly than it's thinness is its tapered edge which feels more natural in your hand. One of the biggest complaints about the original iPad was it really wasn't tremendously comfortable to hold for long periods at a time. For a tablet device designed to be held, that's a pretty big deal. Apple really has done an amazing job of cramming everything into an even smaller space than before and the difference is really noticeable when you're holding the device. In addition to the tapered edge, Apple managed to reduce the overall weight of the iPad 2. That might not seem like a huge deal to most, especially when you consider the weight difference isn't tremendous when you're already under 2 pounds, but I spend a good part of my day holding the iPad in my hands and the weight difference is surprising by the end of the day. The first generation isn't heavy by any means, but the iPad 2 outshines it.
New and "Improved"
Apple doubled the RAM in the iPad 2 from 256MB to 512MB.Read more ›
I have taught computer science at the college level for 26 years and have had computers with all kinds of operating systems. I don't own Apple stock and have never known anyone who works at Apple. I therefore have no connection to Apple.
I have had my iPad for about a month and read a fair number of reviews before I purchased, spent some time using one at the store, and thought about what I might use one for, in contrast to my laptop with which I am well satisfied. People too often think of computers in terms of hardware, the specs and looks, instead of the software and the functionality. You should ask yourself, "What will I use this for that solves a problem I would like to have solved?" Software is always more important than hardware, even though it is the hardware that makes an impression.
The iPad is not a laptop and is not principally a production computer, that is, a computer on which you are going to develop web pages, do serious graphics editing, or write a book. You could use your new Taurus to tow a trailer, but that is not what it is designed to do well. These things can increasingly be done on an iPad, but I don't believe they will ever be what it is best at.Read more ›
If you don't have an iPad, and you're trying to decide whether you want one or not, ask yourself: What will I use this for?
This is meant to be an overview for the uninitiated, since according to initial news reports, 70% of people who have bought the iPad 2 so far didn't own an original iPad.
If you want it for web surfing, a portable Netflix or other video screen, gaming, or FaceTime/Skype video chat, it's definitely adept at all of those things. I used to read books and magazines in my bed before going to sleep, and I still occasionally do, but now I've found that surfing with the iPad is just as convenient and relaxing.
The iPad is all about the apps, many of which greatly expand the native capability of the iPad. You can get Microsoft Office clones, remote desktop, second screen, calculators, alarm clocks, remote apps for cable boxes and disc players, and more. Some are free, many are not. I'll get into some of those a bit later, but keep in mind this isn't intended to be a review of apps. If you want to see what's out there, you can search the App store on the web or in iTunes. If you expect the iPad to be able to do something not in its specs, check the app store first.
The only difference I've seen with the iPad 2 is that now there are a few games out there that are optimized for iPad 2, or have improved iPad 2 modes.Read more ›

James Murdoch Steps Down as Chairman of News Corp. U.K. Unit
News Corp. Deputy Chief Operating Officer James Murdoch stepped down as executive chairman of News International almost eight months after the U.K. publishing unit was rocked by a phone-hacking scandal.
Murdoch, 39, who has moved to News Corp.'s New York headquarters, will assume a variety of "essential corporate leadership mandates" focusing on pay television and international operations, his 80-year-old father Rupert, who is News Corp.'s chairman and chief executive officer, said in a statement.
The younger Murdoch already handed News International's CEO position to Tom Mockridge in July, after reports of voice-mail interception by its tabloid journalists in the U.K. prompted News Corp. to drop a bid for British Sky Broadcasting Group Plc, the pay TV company in which James Murdoch is still chairman. U.K. lawmakers are preparing a report about Murdoch's role in the scandal and may publish their findings in coming weeks.
"James was itching to step down, he is well known to be no fan of the newspapers," said Claire Enders, founder and CEO of Enders Analysis in London, who advises clients including the U.K. government. "I am sure the board understands James wants to leave and they are much more protective of him now."
Murdoch was given the deputy COO job in March 2011, with News Corp. announcing plans to move Rupert Murdoch's youngest son, to its headquarters in New York. By July, News International faced phone-hacking allegations against the News of the World, leading to the tabloid's closure. Both Murdochs appeared before U.K. lawmakers to explain their role.
Time to Go
"Over time, it's become clear that it was in the best interests of the company and James that he step down," said Lawrence Haverty, a portfolio manager at Gamco Investors Inc. in Rye, New York, which owns shares of News Corp.
Murdoch has completed his move to New York and has no plans to step down from any of his other roles, according to a person close to the company who asked not to be named because the plans are private. He held onto his position as chairman of BSkyB, Britain's biggest pay-TV company, last November amid criticism from some shareholders for him to resign.
The CTW Investment group, a fund representing unions and pension holdings, repeated its call today for James Murdoch's resignation from the boards of News Corp. and Sotheby's. The group said it sent a letter to the chairman of Sotheby's, citing the company's corporate governance policy which requires a director whose occupation has changed to resign.
Father's Backing
"He has demonstrated leadership and continues to create great value at Star TV, Sky Deutschland, Sky Italia, and BSkyB," Rupert Murdoch said in the statement.
James Murdoch was absent when his father flew to London earlier this month to help start a Sunday edition of the Sun tabloid. Ten Sun employees had been arrested as part of a police investigation into improper payments to public officials.
The Sunday edition of the Sun tabloid fills a void left by the News of the World, the 168-year-old newspaper that was shut last July after reporters were found to be hacking into sources' voice mails for stories. The company's internal investigation into hacking at News of the World eventually widened to encompass News Corp.'s other U.K. titles.
A separate judge-led inquiry, formed by Prime Minister David Cameron, was also started because of the News of the World revelations to look into media ethics and practices.
"If News International wanted to move on and start afresh then his presence was always going to be a problem for them," Culture Committee Chairman John Whittingdale said on Sky News. "They want to demonstrate that they are making a fresh start with fresh personnel. That doesn't necessarily mean that James Murdoch was guilty."
News Corp. rose 0.3 percent to $19.86 in Nasdaq Stock Market trading at 3:45 p.m. New York time. The stock had gained 11 percent this year before today.
Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News, competes with News Corp. units in providing financial news and information.

Literature reports different effects of mood on measures of consumer behavior. Either mood congruence or mood regulation theories serve to explain these effects, though the latter theory is perhaps more sophisticated. This research goes a step further: in a sequence of four studies, the authors consider different products (with and without mood-lifting capabilities) and consumers' beliefs in the transience of their mood to illuminate the interplay between the two theoretical approaches. Culture (individualism vs. collectivism) emerges as an important driver of mood transience. Mood transience drives the likelihood of mood regulation through the consumption of products with mood-lifting capabilities. Willingness to pay serves as the dependent variable, in contrast with mood research that has focused almost entirely on nonmonetary forms of consumer behavior. Greater willingness to pay variance in bad moods, compared with good moods, offers evidence of the opposing effects of mood congruence and regulation.

STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. (AP) - DeKalb police say the driver of a
sport utility vehicle will be charged with vehicular homicide and
other offenses after a 7-year-old boy was struck and killed walking
in a crosswalk near a crossing guard.
Police have not named the child killed near Princeton Elementary
School, not far from Stone Mountain, about 7:30 a.m. Monday. Police
believe the driver of the SUV was taking her own child to a
different school.
DeKalb police spokeswoman Mekka Parish says police are still
determining why the unidentified driver didn't stop. She says the
woman will be charged.
The child was pronounced dead on the way to a hospital. No other
children were in the crosswalk.
The driver was taken to a hospital for observation.

On Monday at 11:30pm MCSO Patrol District 5 deputies initiated an investigation into the reports of narcotics activity in the 16400 block of Hwy 105 just west of Conroe.
Deputies stopped a motorcycle that was driving through the parking lot of a storage facility and found that the motorcycle had been reported stolen. The driver, Chester Nagel, was arrested. During the investigation, deputies found over 100 grams of methamphetamine in Nagel's possession and that the suspect had a storage unit in the storage facility. Upon searching the storage unit, deputies did not find additional illegal substances but found an entry way through loose paneling into the adjoining storage unit.
Inside the second storage unit, various types of drug paraphernalia were found. Deputies notified the Sheriff's Office Special Investigative Unit. Investigators with SIU found inside the second storage unit a small amount of methamphetamine, small baggies, and an electric scale. The second storage was rented by Anthony Granados, who was incarcerated in the Montgomery County Jail on other charges.
Chester Nagel was charged with Manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance, and Anthony Granados was charged with possession of a controlled substance.

Green dazzles with 95-yard kickoff return
Published: Sunday, August 3, 2008 at 8:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 2, 2008 at 10:38 p.m.
JACKSON, Miss. Skyler Green knew he needed to do something out of the ordinary to get the attention of the Saints coaching staff.
A 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown on Saturday during the teams first intrasquad scrimmage of training camp should help the former LSU standouts cause. So will the burst of speed he showed while hauling in Tyler Palkos 47-yard heave down the middle of the field.
I think I showed the coaches that I can play some football, that I can be a guy they can depend on, Green said.
The Saints offense ran 61 plays under blazing sun in Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium, where the heat index reached 106 degrees, scoring their only two touchdowns on drives led by Drew Brees. No official statistics were kept during the informal scrimmage. Unofficially, Brees was 8-of-14 passing for 72 yards and two TD passes. His first touchdown was a 17-yarder to Lance Moore, who also had a reception of nearly 20 yards earlier in the drive.
The second touchdown was a dump off to Reggie Bush, who scored on a slashing 7-yard gain while his celebrity girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, looked on.
Several projected regulars were rested as a precaution, including running back Deuce McAllister, receiver Marques Colston, tight end Jeremy Shockey, linebacker Jonathan Vilma, cornerback Mike McKenzie and defensive tackles Hollis Thomas and Brian Young. Rookie cornerback Tracy Porter and wide receiver Devery Henderson, both nursing mild hamstring pulls, also were held out.
In between offensive series, coaches gave kickers Martin Gramatica and Taylor Mehlhaff a few chances to practice kickoffs.
Gramatica hit both of his kicks at or near the goal line. They both were returned across the 20-yard line.
Mehlhaff drilled his first through the end zone. He hit his second with more height than depth to give the coverage team a chance to make a play. They didnt.
Green grabbed the ball at the 5-yard line close to one sideline, then burst straight up field through a gaping hole before cutting cross field and pulling away from remaining pursuers.
It shows the coaches Im going to be a return guy and thats what Ive come here to do, said Green, who gave a lot of the credit to his blockers, then added, I think I showed them today I can also play wide receiver.
In addition to his long catch on Palkos throw, Green nearly made a difficult catch along the sideline as he retreated back toward backup quarterback Mark Brunell, who was scrambling to his right.
Referees ruled that Green did not have possession before he was shoved out of bounds. Green thought he had it, and perhaps more importantly, so did coach Sean Payton.
Weve got a long road here, Payton said. He knows what to do, hes explosive, so its encouraging.
Green has had trouble sticking to a roster through his first two seasons. He was drafted by Dallas but played in only two games before being released and later picked up by Cincinnati, where he played in seven games last season before being waived and signed to the Bengals practice squad.
Moore, meanwhile, has looked increasingly comfortable in his fourth season with New Orleans, his third in Paytons system. He knows he needs to be.
While former first-round draft choice Robert Meachem never played last season, he has improved dramatically and appears certain to play this season. Seventh-round draft choice Adrian Arrington also has proven a quick learner since joining the squad.
Weve got a great receiver coach. Weve got a great offense, Moore said. So any time they can get guys in here that can play the (receiver) position, theres going to be competition and I believe the competition is going to bring out the best in all of us.
Moore has consistently made plays during 11-on-11 drills since training camp began. The scrimmage was no different.
This is my third year in the system, Im definitely comfortable out there and the plays that are there to be made, I need to be making them, Moore said.
The defense had some highlights, as well. While there were no interceptions, the defensive line routinely flushed quarterbacks out of the pocket and was credited with several sacks when they were able to get close enough to the quarterback to prompt referees to blow the play dead.
Defensive ends Will Smith and Bobby McCray each had sacks, while rookie defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis batted down one of Palkos passes. Reserve defensive tackle Orien Harris also had sack.
The running game was tougher to judge because plays were blown dead as soon as ball carriers were touched. Bush appeared primed to break a long run when the whistle blew as a defender reached out and patted him with only one hand. Still he looked quick and elusive, especially on his touchdown.
The hard thing with having a scrimmage like this is always trying to measure sacks and trying to measure point of contact as to where a guy is down, Payton said. But I thought we got a lot of good work in.

Windows XP and Vista have started installing updates at shutdown, in certain cases, without displaying a warning or requesting permission, according to reports by several readers.
The forced-install behavior has been witnessed at least three times by Windows Secrets editors, but Microsoft says its procedure for Automatic Updates hasn't changed in the last 10 months.
The behavior seems to occur only if a Windows user has Automatic Updates configured to "download updates but don't install them" or "notify me but don't install them." If updates are scheduled to occur automatically, with no notice to users, the silent installation of updates would be expected.
Most Windows patches are desirable and have few unwanted side effects. A few updates, however, are known to disable or conflict with other software. For this reason, many individuals and companies require that all upgrades be researched or tested before anything is installed.
Numerous conflicts have caused users to take a cautious approach to updates. For example, WS contributing editor Susan Bradley reported in her July 10, 2008, column (paid content) that Microsoft patch MS08-037 completely disabled the Internet connection of machines that use the ZoneAlarm firewall. Many users can't afford this kind of interruption of service and prefer to study each update before approving its installation.

This past Tuesday at 2:59 a.m. the Krause clan was increased by one when Gideon Troy was born.While the males in the family are still outnumbered, we do feel there is a much better chance of actually getting our way once in a while, especially since oldest sibling Naomi is going to be off to college soon.What makes my youngest's story so unique, or perhaps I?should say not very unique, is he is an August baby.On the Krause side, he joins, my Martha, as well as cousins Jesse, Rory, and Keegan all who were born in August.So, of the 14 grandchildren, five of them now celebrate their birthdays in the same month.I'm thinking there has to be a way we can same money on gifts or birthday parties somehow.When we found out for sure Gideon was going to be born in August, Kelly pointed out to me some other extended family were also born in August, including two Krause boys born to Mitch and Holly Krause, and my sister, Carmen, told me there was an aunt on my mom's side who had three children born on the same day in August.Apparently, there is something going on in August, or should I?say there is something going on nine months before August.So, with the birth of Gideon the Krause clan reaches seven, which for some is unimaginable. I?have at times told people when they ask we "only" have seven, giving them the impression perhaps that seven really is not that many, and I?know there are families not that far away from where the Krause farm sets who have reached double digits.No, we are not going there.I?am pretty sure after another very long labor my better half may just be ready to call it quits, but I never say never.Speaking of that labor, I?want to thank all of the nurses at the Redwood Area Hospital, including Sherry, Fay, Laura, Mindy and Pauline who helped to make Kelly as comfortable as possible and did a great job helping bring Gideon into the world. Thanks again, too, to Dr. Cilek. She is definitely a calming, encouraging influence in the labor room.The Krause family was almost guaranteed to have a boy this time, because I?had refused to accept any girl's name and told Kelly if it would have been a girl she could surprise me after Dr. Cilek announced it.I was pretty sure I?knew which name Kelly would have picked, and shortly after Gideon was born I?leaned over and told her perhaps we could still use it if she wanted to buy a fish.Welcome to the world, Gideon, this dad is sure proud and can't wait to get to know you.

I bought this to f*ck, because my wife is not always around, or in the mood. I have f*cked this many times, and must say, it's a decent product. Sometimes it's a little hard to find the p*ssy hole when you are all lubed up. I have never cleaned it, and it seems to be holding up very well.

Half-Time Report Card
Toronto: 8th in the Eastern Conference
44 games
Habs in desperate need of GOALS !!!!
Ok so we have one of the best powerplays and one of the best penalty killing, but 5 on 5 we SUCK. Gainey can't wait no longer he has to make a move. Samsonov is a big bust, he works hard but nothing to show for it. Ryder, a proven 30 goal scorer isin't playing well. Plekanec is a hard worker but he's no 2nd line center.
We have alot of assets we can move. Too many players that all do the same thing. Plekanec, Samsonov, Perezoghin, Kostisyn, Grabovski. That's 5 players who do the same thing, and they are all very small.
I like are defence, but we won't be able to sign are 3 ufa's. Everyone says that they think we should move Souray, but I think we should move Rivet. He makes to much money for what he gives. There are plenty of teams out there that are looking for a solid stay at home D-man.
If I happen to be Leafs GM.
This maybe a pretty stupid idea. You've been warned! Selling off the whole team isn't the answer, when your still in the hunt for a playoff spot. If anything the leafs should be buyers. If your fighting for a playoff spot is obvious your a decent enough team, you just need a few screws tighten up.
Lemieux, Bettman, and Tier 2 Cities
A hypocritical situation;
12 Sell-out crowds vs. Fans without a face;
175 Million Dollar Baby.
No Fitzpatrick in the All Star Game
Looks like Rory Fitzpatrick will not make the All Star Game.
Young Guns: Part 1
Western Conference Edition. These players are the future of the NHL; chances are you havn't heard all of these names, but trust me you'll be hearing them for a long time. For the record, I am considering anyone who has played under 3 NHL seasons and is not over 25 as youth.
Part 1: Goalie surprises, good, and bad.
This is part 1 of my of 3 articles. This is who I think has been a good surprise, and a bad surprise.
Leafs First Half Report/ Predictions
The Leafs first part of the season has been up and down, as of now more up than down(But just by one win). They have good young prospects who can hit(Newbury,Ondrus) score(Pohl) and just fun to watch(Suglobov). Some other good things are the re-emergence of Jeff O'neill, Bates Battaglia and Boyd Devereaux. The first half has seen some of the most memorable moments in Leafs history when Sundin got his 500th.(the absolute perfect goal) Sundin getting his 1200th point and passing a NHL great in scoring every game.
Leafs Should Sell
50 days remain before the NHL trade deadline comes and goes and in that time General Manager John Ferguson must figure out a way to improve the Toronto Maple Leafs. These next 7 weeks will be big in determining whether or not this man deserves to continue serving in the capacity of GM for the hockey club.
Liles Injured! Colorado Searching for Defenseman!
John Michael Liles was injured in Colorado's 2-1 shootout win over Minnesota on Saturday. He has suffered a broken foot and will be out for 4 weeks.
With injuries already to Leopold (groin, out indefinetly) and Brisbois (back injury, day to day) the Colorado blueline that was already lacking depth now looks empty:
Skrastins Clark
Vaananen Klee
Cumisky Sauer
Canes and Yotes Make A Swap
To Phoenix: Kevyn Adams
To Carolina: Dennis Seidenberg
A Tribute to Greatness
Hockey is a great sport because the people that play it and the families involved are some of the most respectful athletes and people in the world. Families play such a huge role in hockey, the hockey mom and the hockey dad are as big a part of the game as the coaches and the refs.
The news…
Vancouver has won 6 straight, and how long will it last? Why have all the players pickup during the year made such an impact to there teams? The Kings have some big names on there back end, so why is there defense the worst in NHL? And who have been the biggest surprise, good and bad?

Seasonally unadjusted unemployment rose in both Otago and
Southland in the three months ended September, but the
seasonal nature of the figures makes interpretation
Labour leader David Shearer yesterday advocated a return to
government intervention in the job market, including adopting
a "one in a million" target for government contracts.
Latest ANZ New Zealand job ads data suggests unemployment is
on the rise.
Government claims of a slow sustained recovery in the economy
will be put to the test in the next few months, as New
Zealand's unemployment rate edges up and a modest lift in
employment fails to materialise.
The Otago unemployment and employment figures continue to
fluctuate because of seasonal factors, but it does appear
some people in the region are struggling to find work and
have ruled themselves out of the count.
Employement levels appeared to hold up well in the first half
of the year, but data out tomorrow is still expected to show
an unemployment level of 6.5% for the country.
New Zealand's unemployment rate is set to hover around 6.5%
for the next six months, judging from data from the ANZ Job
Ads series released yesterday.
There are 25 unemployed young people in Clutha, and Mayor
Bryan Cadogan believes the number can be zero.
New Zealand is joining the world unemployment crisis, with
9000 more people out of work, bumping the total jobless to
Unemployment could
push above the current 6.3% in the three months ended June,
despite job advertisements rising throughout New Zealand in

I have been banging my head against the wall with this one for nearly a week now, and am no closer than I was the first day.
I have a form that has 8 columns and a variable number of rows which I need to email to the client in a nicely formatted email. The form submits the needed fields as a multidimensional array. Rough example is below:
<input name="order[0][topdiameter]" type="text" id="topdiameter0" value="1" size="5" />
<input name="order[0][bottomdiameter]" type="text" id="bottomdiameter0" value="1" size="5" />
<input name="order[0][slantheight]" type="text" id="slantheight0" value="1" size="5" />
<select name="order[0][fittertype]" id="fittertype0">
<option value="harp">Harp</option>
<option value="euro">Euro</option>
<option value="bulbclip">Regular</option>
<input name="order[0][washerdrop]" type="text" id="washerdrop0" value="1" size="5" />
<select name="order[0][fabrictype]" id="fabrictype">
<option value="linen">Linen</option>
<option value="pleated">Pleated</option>
<select name="order[0][colours]" id="colours0">
<option value="beige">Beige</option>
<option value="white">White</option>
<option value="eggshell">Eggshell</option>
<option value="parchment">Parchment</option>
<input name="order[0][quantity]" type="text" id="quantity0" value="1" size="5" />
This form is formatted in a table, and rows can be added to it dynamically. What I've been unable to do is get a properly formatted table out of the array.
This is what I'm using now (grabbed from the net).
if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$arr= $_POST['order']
echo '
';
foreach($arr as $arrs)
echo '
';
foreach($arrs as $item)
echo "$item	";
echo '
';
echo '
;
This works perfectly for a single row of data. If I try submitting 2 or more rows from the form then one of the columns disappears. I'd like the table to be formatted as:
| top | Bottom | Slant | Fitter | Washer | Fabric | Colours | Quantity |
|value| value | value | value | value | value | value | value |
with additional rows as needed. But, I can't find any examples that will generate that type of table!
It seems like this should be something fairly straightforward, but I just can't locate an example that works the way I need it too.

Hello, Hello. Sign In
Please enter a valid city, state or zip code
2 reviews | 4.5 out of 5
This rifle was first produced in the early 70's and has been made by a few different manufacturers. This version by Henry is the best. Although mine had some auto loading issues, the factory quickly fixed it and it has been perfect since. The gun quickly disassembles and fits inside it's own stock making a lightweight, packable unit that can go anywhere. I mounted a 4x scope which prevents it from fitting inside the stock, but allows 2-3 inch groups at 100 yards with cheap ammo! Clips are 8 rd and a bit expensive, however, although 15 round ones are available on the aftermarket. This is a great survival or just a packable gun.

The landmark Senate climate hearings: Day 1 debrief
The Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works began its hearings today on the climate and clean energy bill. I don't think there was any big news. Sen. Baucus (D-MT) and Sen. Voinovich (R-OH) were a tad more negative than I expected. I've no doubt Baucus will support the final bill, but I definitely have doubts Voinovich will. This Wonk Room post is a great summary of everyone's position on the key issues:
This week, hearings begin in the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on the Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act (S. 1733). This comprehensive climate and clean energy legislation, co-sponsored by Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) and committee chair Barbara Boxer (D-CA), will establish a mandatory global warming pollution reduction market that will fund clean energy and climate adaptation, as well as establish new renewable energy and energy efficiency standards. The 19 members of the committee "" 12 Democrats and 7 Republicans "" are overseeing a three-day marathon of legislative hearings this week, starting with Administration witnesses today.
The committee members can be sorted by their degree of support for clean energy, progressive reform, and strong climate action:
– STRONGEST ACTION: Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Bernie Sanders (D-VT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)
– STRONG ACTION: Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Ben Cardin (D-MD), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), John Kerry (D-MA), Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), Tom Udall (D-CO)
– CENTRIST: Max Baucus (D-MT), Tom Carper (D-DE), Arlen Specter (D-PA)
– ANTI: Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Mike Crapo (R-ID), George Voinovich (R-OH)
– EXTREME ANTI: John Barrasso (R-WY), Kit Bond (R-MO), Jim Inhofe (R-OK), David Vitter (R-LA)
Below is the Wonk Room's summary of some key issues that will be debated at the hearings, ranging from support for policies to ensure a clean energy future to favored attacks on any action by the Republican members.
CLEAN AIR: "We must act to reduce black carbon," Carper says, "a dangerous pollutant emitted by old, dirty diesel engines like those in some school buses and thought to be the second largest contributor to global warming after carbon dioxide." "Among my top priorities was to be sure that we not only address challenges that carbon dioxide poses to our planet, but sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide and mercury."
COAL PLANT GREENHOUSE GAS REGULATION: Kerry-Boxer follows Gillibrand's call that "the EPA has to have authority to regulate coal plants under the Clean Air Act." Baucus opposes the retention of this authority.
EMISSIONS LIMITS: As Sens. Cardin, Lautenberg, Merkley, Sanders, Whitehouse requested, the 2020 target for greenhouse pollution reductions has been strengthened to 20 percent below 2005 levels, instead of Waxman-Markey's 17 percent target. Baucus has criticized the stronger targets.
GREEN TRANSPORTATION: Kerry-Boxer includes Sen. Carper's push for green transportation, devoting "a guaranteed share of revenues from carbon regulation to transit, bike paths, and other green modes of transport." The SmartWay Transportation Efficiency Program is modeled on the Clean, Low-Emission, Affordable, New Transportation Efficiency Act (S. 575 / H.R. 1329), co-sponsored by Sens. Specter, Merkley, Lautenberg, and Cardin.
NATURAL RESOURCE ADAPTATION: Whitehouse and Baucus have submitted language to support efforts for natural resource adaptation.
ALLOWANCE ALLOCATION: As chair of the Finance Committee, Baucus can assert authority over emission allowance distribution. Baucus has raised the possibility of "auctioning allowances to cut taxes by cutting marginal rates, by cutting capital gains rates, by cutting payroll taxes or by doing all of the above," although he doubts there will be "major" changes to the House allocation formula, which is supported by the Edison Electric Institute, the main utility trade group. Baucus has supported additional allocations to rural electric cooperatives and "solid relief to low-income Americans." Carper supports the existing allocation formula, saying, "I thought the utility industry did a great service by coming up with a compromise that all of them could live with."
COAL SUPPORT: Carper led what he calls the "clean coal group," an "ad-hoc group that helped craft the coal provisions," including a change that "allows for advanced distribution of the bill's bonus allowances" for carbon capture and sequestration projects with at least 50% efficiency. The National Mining Association still says the legislation "doesn't work for coal."
NUCLEAR SUPPORT: Carper wants "an expanded role for nuclear" and is "working with Joe Lieberman and others to create a more robust nuclear title when the bill comes to the floor." However, he recognizes that "there'll be a lot of incentives, just from the way the allowance system will be set up," and has called for expanding the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, rather than increasing subsidies for the nuclear industry. Alexander believes "we should build 100 new nuclear plants" but has offered no proposal on how to achieve that, while dismissing estimates that the legislation under consideration would accomplish his goals.
TRADE: Baucus supports "ways to make sure U.S. companies are not taken advantage of, or discriminated against." Specter supports "strong provisions to ensure the strength and viability of domestic manufacturing," including a "border adjustment mechanism" if "other major carbon emitting countries fail to commit to an international agreement requiring commensurate action on climate change."
CLIMATE DENIAL: Barrasso, Bond, Crapo, Inhofe, and Vitter question the consensus that manmade climate change is a significant threat. Barrasso has said: "I don't believe it is a problem at this point." "None of the farmers I have talked to in Missouri," said Bond, "have expressed concerns about human-caused global climate change." Crapo argues "the underlying cause of these climactic shifts is ultimately not well-understood and is a matter of vigorous debate." "God's still up there," said Inhofe. "We're going through these cycles." "I don't think it is clear and settled," Vitter has said, "the extent of the human impact on temperature trends."
EPA AND CAROL BROWNER: Barrasso, Crapo, Inhofe, Vitter, and Voinovich have repeatedly criticized the EPA and their analyses of the legislation. Voinovich has a hold on EPA deputy administrator nominee Robert Perciasepe. Inhofe, Barrasso, and Vitter have attacked Browner as an unaccountable "czar" and are requesting White House documents about her actions….
FUEL COSTS: Bond co-authored a report that argues clean energy legislation is the equivalent of a $3.6 trillion gas tax, totalling over 40 years extremely pessimistic estimates of fuel prices based on a National Black Chamber of Commerce report, without taking into account fuel economy. Other studies predict that gas prices will fall, as demand lessens and oil company profit margins are lessened.
JOB ASSISTANCE: Inhofe and Voinovich argue that provisions for unemployment benefits and job relocation provide evidence that the legislation will destroy jobs. "There's no credible analysis that suggests this bill will be a net job creator," claimed Voinovich. "Less energy production," says Barrasso, "will mean fewer jobs for Americans."
— Brad Johnson
Actually, there is plenty of credible analysis that this bill will create jobs (see "Investing in a clean energy recovery to create 1.7 million net new jobs"). And is even more obvious that failing to act will destroy jobs and a livable climate (see "When the global Ponzi scheme collapses (circa 2030), the only jobs left will be green").
9 Responses to The landmark Senate climate hearings: Day 1 debrief
This is great info for me. I am well aware of the science end of the issue, but not so much on the legislative side. Please forgive a basic question, but I ask thinking there may be others who don't know our process either. How many votes are needed to move this out of this committee? Is there a basic description of the process that you have already prepared?
Thanks for all your great work. I enjoy your blog every day. Rich
Joe and others . . .
I wasn't able to watch today. I'll just ask one question: Did any of the Senators or people testifying mention the recent letter (sent by eighteen scientific organizations) explicitly or, at least, state specifically that at least eighteen major scientific organizations in the U.S. agree on the reality of climate change?
As I've mentioned, The New York Times has still not covered that letter, as far as I can tell.
I'm starting to think that the letter must have been a joke or deception, i.e., some stunt involving the cooperation of CP and the folks who run the AAAS's website? After all, who else has covered the letter? The signatures looked real to me, and the writing credible, but the media haven't covered it, or at least not The New York Times. What am I missing?
"None of the farmers I have talked to in Missouri," said Bond, "have expressed concerns about human-caused global climate change."
Forget what all the climate scientists say. If you want to know whether global warming is a problem, ask the farmers in Missouri.
Committee votes are by simple majority so only 10 votes are needed. The bill could pass tomorrow (there are 12 Democrats on the committee) but more time is needed to fill out the details within the outline of the bill and address the (often legitimate) concerns of moderate Senators.
Error in 1st paragraph: Sen. Voinovich (D-OH)
should be (R-OH)
[JR: Typo. Yes. Thanks.]
Inhofe is quoted in today's (10/28/09) Washington Post as offering to provide the names of scientists who have become skeptics of climate change recently. I think the committee should take him up on his offer — and them bring some of them to testify. Having read portions of Inhofe's list, the media will be exposed to a variety of non-scientists and people whose works and words have been taken out of context by Sen. Inhofe.
Sorry, here's that other website… http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html
Um, right, adding to Charles' point, the farmers in Missouri aren't much concerned about climate change… Could this be:
1) Because they tend to read Farm Journal (which has been light on the topic) rather than Scientific American?
2) Because the TV weather folks never make mention of climate change?
3) Because our government isn't getting the word out on climate change?
Given the huge predicted negative impacts from climate change, including serious threats to our future national security, isn't it time for President Obama to go on prime-time, national television to give a "State of the Climate" address, to inform the farmers in Missouri, and other misinformed Americans, of the very clear and future danger represented by climate change?
Last time I checked, offering protection to its citizens is one of the roles of government. We/they just don't yet seem to'get' the fact that the very slow ticking of the climate change 'clock' doesn't erase this role–it only hides it from the eyes of the many misinformed stakeholders.
Now is the time for all good students, parents, grandparents, politicians, bloggers, climate activists, and others to show our leaders how to lead–by asking them to take bold action to preserve our climate, for all our sakes. This is a STEALTH problem: once it's apparent to EVERYONE–like it is to the folks who are now surrounded by pine bark beetle-killed trees–it's too late.
So, it's time, President Obama. Time to talk about the results of the $20 billion in government research that's sitting there, unnoticed at http://www.globalchange.gov. It's time to let citizens know what's in store for them, so that they will tell their senators to 'get on board' to support the climate legislation that the world needs from us in the US.
For folks reading Joe's blog that live in, or know of people who live in, states where senators are dragging their misinformed feet, let's get the phones ringing, the Internet buzzing, the tweets flying, etc.
(States needing calls to senators include: MT, DE, PA, TN, ID, OH, MO, OK, and LA.)
Sorry to go on for so long, but this is important. Just for fun, check out this 350 climate video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjWZmLPq4TQ.
The working link to the above 350 climate video, a neat '3,5-0h' song by Fred Small, is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjWZmLPq4TQ. Enjoy.

By Jim DresbachOctober 9, 2012
The Joint Base Myer Commissary has officially entered the digital coupon and computerized grocery-saving era.
As of the first week of October, the base commissary is a participant in the Commissary Rewards Card program. Like many electronically-based savings programs instituted by grocery retail chains, the Commissary Rewards Card concept can make a shopper a more intelligent and thriftier consumer by using a laptop or an on-the-go smart phone.
The Commissary Rewards Card is a money-saving tool which allows commissary shoppers the opportunities to reduce the number of paper coupons that need to be clipped and physically carried to the store. Now with a card registration, consumers can add digital coupons via their computers. "This should be in place at every commissary as of now," Commissary Store Director Nancy Mitchell said. "We're live with it right now. I had all the employees register a card just so they could see how it works, so they could better explain it to a customer."
Registration takes all of five minutes. After obtaining a card exclusively at a commissary, shoppers can visit commissaries.com/rewards/index.cfm to enroll, add digital coupons and start saving money. As an offer to those new to the program, customers can obtain a card at the joint base commissary with preloaded coupons for immediate use. This introductory offer expires Oct. 24.
"As we move forward, there are going to be more benefits. The vendors will start downloading [coupons and offers] onto the card," Mitchell said. "All you do is get online and click the coupons you want to use."
The coupon section gets updated every two weeks with old and new offers coming and expiring. Like paper coupons the electronic versions will also become null and void over time. When an added electronic coupon expires, it simply vanishes into cyber space and leaves no paper trail.
The Defense Commissary Agency's (DeCA) coupon policy limits coupons to one per purchase, so the digital coupons cannot be combined with manufacturer paper coupons and military or commissary coupons.
Commissaries hope the rewards card will assist in attracting young shoppers with Families who currently use big-box grocers and department stores for their grocery shopping needs. The goal is to show commissary shoppers that time, effort and money can be saved in this green initiative.
The rewards card has had a quick evolution toward activation. Testing of the card began Aug. 8 at the Fort Lee, Va. commissary and eventually moved to 30 stores by the end of the month. DeCA then began a gradual rollout of the card throughout September.
Customers also have the option of printing a list of their selected coupons, so they can follow the savings through the aisles of the commissary.
For additional information on the rewards card program, DeCA suggests that customers visit the commissary rewards card frequently asked questions page at www.commissaries.com. The customer service hotline at 855-829-6219 is also staffed to handle card questions.

WES has clear instructions on what academic documents to submit and how to submit them. More than 50,000 individuals each year successfully obtain their credential evaluations from WES, and to date WES has prepared evaluations for close to 750,000 foreign educated persons. Still, there are also people who cannot, or will not, submit authentic credentials and there is not much that WES can do to help them. They can seek to have their application fees refunded, but without confirmed authentic credentials, WES does not prepare an evaluation report.

We had a great time. The accommodation was good, room was clean and complete. It had a nice parking garage, a bit small but fine.
It was no problem that we arrived late in the evening (car trouble). The breakfast service was convenient and good. We had a great view of the mountains and we got some great advice about the area from the landlord.
We would recommend this accommodation to everyone who loves nature. But you do have to travel a bit (25min) for the first big supermarket.
Convenient to 3 metro lines; furnished; pictures of small rooms accurate; elevator. Shelves and dishes grimy; very noisy street (major road to airport) during week; no trash cans; smelly towels poorly laundered; some musty smells throughout; no Internet (borrowed from neighbor, though).
First of all, I was a little nervous because I had plenty of doubts and the agency didn't answer me, in that point very bad customer service I can't believe they take like one week to answer a customer email... Anyway one week before our arrival our host finally could contact me and I talked to her. Luckly Montse was a Spanish woman and we could understand each other very good. Despite we had problems in our arrival, she was very kind and understood everything, made everything very easy and was very flexible about the arriving time. She really cared about us, offering herself for any help we could need (finding supermakets, places to eat, and useful information) we are really grateful about that:)
About the house, 10-15 min walk from Piazza San Marco, good location, very close to important places and easy to find (difficult in Venice..) the house is exactly as described in the pictures, one big sofa-bed (very comfortable) one bedroom, the kitchen, bathroom and a small terrace. Despite was a little bit small apartment was very nice, comfortable and charming.
Against: it wasn't very cleaned, some dirty in the corners and under the sofa and furniture. I don't understand why we had to pay 20€ per person for cleaning taxes and other taxes when they left us the apartment not as cleaned as they could...
The oven didn't work (or we didn't know how to turn it on... Neither our host) and half of the stoves didn't work, and the ones who did was very low fire and we took ages to cook and to get the water to boil.
The other think I didn't like (but this isn't problem of the house) is that even is well located, it's pretty far from the train station, like 40 min walking, 1hour if you are taking luggage, so the best thing is to take the vaporetto and its 40 min more or less and 7,50€ each trip. It's not a really big deal but a think to take on count if money is a struggle for you. You'll do it if you are going to Treviso airport.
Anyway, we had a very nice time then, if I go back to Venice, I would repeat for sure! :)
In the apartment, it is calm at night in spite of it's central location and insufficient windows' sound proofing.
Also insufficient is room lighting, shutters of the kitchen cabinet are not arranged well, there is mold in the shower cabin.
But the Fountain Trevi district is an excellent place in Rome, and if you are not very captious you will enjoy this place to stay.
Very cosy place in a beautiful setting. Will come back for sure.
Trusted patner There Are nice team Where they always try to help costumers for all what he need but for me i need help since i make booking from windu website page and i used my credit card to make the booking wimdu proof my booking by saying that

A nice little house in a charming village. A few negative things to mention: Not enough kops and plates for 4 persons, nearly no toilet-paper on arrival and we never suceeded in making the TV work. Since none of us are spanish speaking it would have been nice with some written information in the house.
...but nvertheless: We enjoyed our stay on the wonderful Island, away from the main tourist spots.
The location is beautiful!, all what is stated in advertising it's true. I recommend.
Very Nice Apartment With an exelent wiev, Penthouse. No English speaking tv channels.
Alojamiento 100% recomendable. En muy buenas condiciones, instalaciones inmejorables y una atención excelente por parte del propietario. Relación calidad-precio muy buena. Repetiríamos sin dudar!
Accommodation 100% advisable. Thanks very much to our host for such a wonderful stay. We loved the quality of the rooms and all the spaces in the house. Markt Josef was very kind and warm since our arrival. We really felt confortable and happy with our choice. We definitely recommend your accommodation to others.

What is thrush?
Thrush (oropharyngeal candidiasis) is a medical condition in which a fungus called Candida overgrows in the mouth and throat. Candida is normally present in the mouth, digestive tract, and skin of most healthy people. The immune system and the body's normal bacteria usually keep Candida in balance. When this balance is interrupted, it can result in an overgrowth of the Candida fungus, causing thrush, a yeast infection of the mouth or throat.
Thrush is not the same as a vaginal yeast infection. However, the Candida fungus also causes diaper rash, but diaper rash occurs on a child's rear end, genitals, and inner thighs, while oral thrush occurs in the mouth and throat. Continue Reading
