After Donald Trump encouraged Russian intelligence services or hackers "to find" and release State Department emails that could prove damaging to Hillary Clinton, right-wing media covered for Trump, suggesting that Trump's comments were simply "tongue-in-cheek" or that he was "joking" about inciting a cyber attack by a foreign government on an American presidential candidate. National security experts condemned Trump's comments, saying Trump has asked "an adversary of the United States [to] perform espionage on the United States," calling it "a national security crisis."

Fox Spins Hacked DNC Emails To Claim Clinton's Victory Is "Illegitimate"
Fox News figures distorted the contents of hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to claim that the Democratic presidential primary was "rigged" and that Hillary Clinton's victory is "illegitimate." But media have noted that Clinton won "her party's nomination by every available measure" and that the hacked emails in no way prove the primary was "rigged."

Right-wing media figures are joining presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in using the name "Pocahontas" as an attack against Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). The line of attack was popularized by Boston right-wing radio host and Trump surrogate Howie Carr.
Former Secret Service officer Gary Byrne, who served in the West Wing during the Clinton administration, recently released Crisis of Character, an anti-Clinton book purporting to warn the country about how Hillary Clinton does not have the temperament to serve as president. In promoting his book, Byrne has repeatedly stumbled through contradictions in his various accounts of the events he claims to have witnessed, with key details differing between his 1998 sworn testimony in the Kenneth Starr investigation, the book itself, and the various appearances he has made in right-wing media.
There they go again.
Conservative media figures, apparently disheartened by recent poll results showing presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump heading in the wrong direction, are once again claiming biased or unreliable pollsters are unfairly weighting results against their party. If this sounds familiar, it's because they did the same thing in 2012, spending months attempting to "unskew" polls showing Mitt Romney losing, only to watch him be soundly defeated on election day.
In the run-up to the 2012 election, conservatives consistently complained that polls showing President Obama in the lead were inaccurately counting the gap between self-identified Democrats and Republicans. According to this school of thought, the polls were being "skewed" to show Romney losing. One blogger, Dean Chambers, took the data in the polls and reweighted them with a partisan split friendlier to Republicans resulting in "unskewed" polls showing Romney easily winning. Chambers' work -- which was more akin to wishful thinking than academic analysis -- was nonetheless widely cited by conservative media as evidence of a concerted effort to influence the results of the presidential election in Obama's favor.
The polls were not skewed. An average of 2012 election polling predicted that Obama would win by 0.7%. In reality, the victory was by a margin of 3.86%. If anything the polls undercounted Obama's support.
Polls can of course go up and down, and the occasional outlier is inevitable. But the argument that the partisan split that pollsters report as they survey voters is somehow skewed to help Democrats is a conspiracy, not actual analysis.
Despite this, conservative media are once again pushing the "unskewed" theme as recent polls show Clinton leading Trump.
This time, the charge against the polls is being led in part by the candidate himself. Trump recently responded to a poll showing him losing with tweets that complained "The @ABC poll sample is heavy on Democrats. Very dishonest - why would they do that?" and "The 'dirty' poll done by @ABC @washingtonpost is a disgrace. Even they admit that many more Democrats were polled."
The ABC News/Washington Post poll in question shows Clinton ahead of Trump 51%-39%.
FiveThirtyEight's Nate Silver noticed the reboot of the "unskewed" theme and asked, "Has anyone seen Donald Trump and Dean Chambers in the same room together?"
Conservative media figures have also zeroed in on the ABC/Wash. Post poll for criticism. On Fox News' Fox and Friends, co-host Steve Doocy said that in the methodology for the ABC/Washington Post poll "they actually talked to 12 percent more Democrats than Republicans," adding, "According to the Gallup poll, there are 3 percent more Democrats in the country than Republicans, so it looks like they've got a favorite in it." During the same segment, co-host Brian Kilmeade explained to viewers, "So far Donald Trump leads in most independent polls." This is true, if by "most," Kilmeade meant none of the last 21 polls included in Real Clear Politics' general election polling data.
The methodology for the poll, conducted by Langer Research for ABC/Washington Post, addresses the partisan breakdown":
Partisanship can follow political preferences, and in this poll Democrats account for 36 percent of all adults and 37 percent of registered voters – a non-significant (+3) difference from last month. (The former is numerically its highest since 2009, the latter, since 2012.) Republicans account for 24 percent of all adults and 27 percent of registered voters, about their average in recent years, with the rest independents.
This accounts for little of the shift in voter preferences, however. Even using the same party divisions from last month's ABC/Post survey, in which Trump was +2, he'd now be -8. The reason, mentioned above, is his comparatively weak performance among Republicans – 77 percent support – compared with Clinton's support among Democrats, 90 percent.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll showing Clinton with a 13% lead over Trump prompted an outburst as well.
On Fox News host Sean Hannity's official website, a blog post complained the poll "is heavily skewed." On his June 27 radio show, Hannity cited the partisan breakdown and described it as a "misleading poll" because the media is "in the tank for Hillary."
Hannity apparently didn't learn his lesson about attempting to unskew polls in 2012, when he was saying things like, "These polls are so skewed, so phony, that we need to start paying attention to what's going on so that you won't be deflated."
In a post purporting to highlight "More Polling Tricks" from an "EXTREMELY SKEWED" poll, conservative blogger Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit complained this week that "Reuters freighted their poll with 20 percent more Democrats than Republicans" and concluded that "we can safely say that Trump appears to be in much better shape than the poll suggests and could likely be headed to a landslide victory in November."
Hoft made a similar argument in September of 2012, complaining that a CNN poll showing Obama leading Romney "drastically oversampled Democrats to get this stunning result." He then went on to cite Dean Chambers, who said that when "unskewed" the CNN poll showed Romney leading by eight percent.
Perhaps remembering how much egg the conservative media had on its face after the 2012 debacle, Fox News contributor Brit Hume tried to steer his fellow conservatives away from repeating their mistakes.
In an appearance on America's Newsroom, Hume noted that Trump "couldn't stop talking" about polls showing him in the lead during the primaries, but now "his supporters, the ones I hear from anyway say that the poll is rigged, and all the rest of it." Then he told host Martha MacCallum, "I don't think your viewers should pay too much attention to that. Look at the polling averages. Look at all the polls put together, to see what you get. And I think the picture's pretty clear. He's trailing, but not insurmountably."
Right-wing media figures are shocked by the Supreme Court decision in Fisher v. University of Texas II, which reaffirmed that the consideration of race as a factor in college admissions is constitutional under the Equal Protection Clause. Conservative media have been questioning the validity of affirmative action policies for years, appearing equally baffled by the Supreme Court's decision in 2013 on the same matter. This time around, the confusion was again amplified as right-wing media attempted to cast race-conscious college admissions as "racist," misrepresent the strict legal scrutiny already in place for these types of policies, and dismiss the numerous educational and economic benefits of diverse colleges.
On his radio show immediately following the release of the new Fisher decision, host Rush Limbaugh read from the synopsis of the majority opinion authored by Justice Anthony Kennedy, in particular focusing on a line stating that schools have a "compelling interest" to seek the benefits of a diverse student body through means other than impermissible racial quotas. Limbaugh was so baffled by the "stunning," "unbelievable," and "absurd" reasoning, he had to read the line several times and was left speechless, before exclaiming, "This is so bad, I don't know how to describe it." Limbaugh then labeled the numerous and proven educational benefits of student body diversity a "liberal concept, perverted and corrupt as it is," and an "absolutely vacuous argument that the left has been advancing for years."
Perhaps if Limbaugh had read more of the opinion, he would better understand how the Supreme Court could deem "the educational benefits that flow from student body diversity" a "compelling interest." In fact, the American Educational Research Association and "nine other scientific societies" filed an amicus brief in the Fisher case, "urging the court to consider an overwhelming body of evidence" showing "that student body diversity promotes cross-racial understanding, educational and classroom benefits, and professional development," and "prevents the harms of racial isolation." A wide range of businesses, public institutions, and educational leadership once again filed amicus briefs in the case, arguing for the value of race-conscious admissions policies. Coalitions of Fortune 100 CEOs and other major business leaders, former senior military officials, several top professional associations for college professors and admissions staff, and the federal government all filed briefs in support of policies like the University of Texas' admissions approach.
During the Fisher oral arguments in December, the late Justice Antonin Scalia made headlines for referencing the discredited "mismatch theory" that affirmative action policies place underprepared students of color in schools that are too challenging for them. The flawed assumptions that underscore this theory have likewise pervaded right-wing media's reactions to the Supreme Court's decision.
Several conservative media figures have expressed their confusion and concern that black and Latino students might somehow be disserved by race-conscious admissions policies in social or emotional ways, in addition to struggling with academic "mismatch." Commentator Heather Mac Donald, for example, denounced the decision, asserting that "race-based admissions preferences" allow students to "come into environments for which they're not prepared," leading to academic failure, "the sort of insanity that this country went through last year with the Black Lives Matter protests on campuses," and a "growing victimology on campuses."
But here are the facts: Numerous studies have shown students of color do better in more selective schools, and experts have discredited what little research backs "mismatch theory." In fact, a brief filed with the Supreme Court in the Fisher case by experts in methodology and statistics urged the court to disregard the most highly cited study supporting the debunked theory, writing that the study "fails to satisfy the basic standards of good empirical social science research."
The facts haven't stopped conservative media from once again incorrectly characterizing the ongoing legality of narrowly tailored affirmative action programs as a major shift in legal precedent amounting to reverse racism. This time around, right-wing media figures lamented the Fisher decision as propping up "another kind of discrimination" that might be "equally wrong," "reverse discrimination" or "racist," and incorrectly suggested that the decision is related to setting impermissible racial quotas for admissions. Rush Limbaugh, in particular, appeared deeply confused, first insisting that the decision relates to racial quotas specifically. Then, after reading a portion of the majority opinion that highlighted the holistic review process at the University of Texas several times, Limbaugh concluded that affirmative action, which he previously understood as a "glorified quota program," has shifted to something "even worse." Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro also asserted that Justice Kennedy had "flipped" in his ruling and that "our freedoms are decided" based on whether the Supreme Court justice "had his Metamucil that morning."
But the court's reaffirmation of the University of Texas' race-conscious admissions policy, while a surprising decision for many court experts and affirmative action advocates who feared the court had shifted irrevocably to the right, does not break new legal ground. In fact, Kennedy's opinion specifically represents a continued belief that properly tailored affirmative action programs remain constitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment -- a line of reasoning he has espoused for nearly a decade. The narrow ruling on the Texas holistic admissions approach is the latest Supreme Court opinion to reaffirm what has been a guiding principle since 1978, further detailed in 2003: that the use of race as one factor among many in individualized and holistic considerations of applicants to institutions of higher education remains both necessary and constitutional to ensure the diversity of America's future leaders.

In Haute Couture, '50s Glamour Meets the Cancan
Paris Runway Styles Are Chaste Yet Colorful, With Dazzling Details Such as Sequins and Crystals; a Red-Carpet Preview?
Twice a year, during the haute couture collections, the French fashion industry contemplates an existential crisis: Is the tradition of hand-made dresses and suits costing hundreds of thousands of dollars still relevant?
Couture week in Paris—now whittled down to a mere three days—offered several ripostes this week, from fashion as art at Christian Dior to luxury jeans at Chanel and one-of-a-kind ostrich feather miniskirts from newcomer Maxime Simoëns.
Couture week raises the spectacle of runway shows to its highest form. This season, the catwalks were awash in sequins, pearls, crystals and even snaps embroidered on dresses. A chaste theme of minimal bare skin and below-the-knee looks ran throughout.
A New Wave of Color
There was also plenty of color, from hot pink at Gaultier Paris to ruby red at Armani Privé—a penchant that could herald a rainbow of hues on the Oscars' red carpet.
Unlike the ready-to-wear collections that will be on show in fashion capitals in February and March, couture has little bearing on what women on the street wear. Dior's parade of petticoat skirts and dresses with trains was testament to that. But the glamorous displays elevate fashion houses' image, helping to sell more mundane products like perfume and sunglasses.
For the past decade, the French fashion industry has worried that haute couture, invented here centuries ago, is on the verge of extinction. Some of the most iconic names have ceased to create couture, either to focus on the more commercial ready-to-wear, like Yves Saint Laurent and Emanuel Ungaro, or because they went out of business, like Christian Lacroix and Thierry Mugler. (Mugler is currently attempting a revival with Lady Gaga's stylist; Lacroix's name lives on through a license business.)
Many of the specialized craftsmen the couture houses depend on for intricate embroidery, feather work, and millinery have disappeared, too. The situation is so dire that the French government is trying to prop up the industry with tax breaks and training.
Adding Jewelry Collections
To drum up interest, the body that organizes Paris couture week has added a fourth day to its calendar, focusing on high-end jewelry. Jewelers from Van Cleef & Arpels to Boucheron and Chanel are presenting new collections of baubles this season.
But wealthy clients and powerful fashion editors come to Paris couture week for the drama of the clothes—and there was plenty of that on display this week.
"Couture is something different and exceptional, it's not for every day," said couture client and lawyer Laura Restelli-Brizard after a "spectacular" show from Jean-Paul Gaultier. She said a navy pantsuit or one of the long dresses would make a good fit for her wardrobe.
Dior designer John Galliano kicked off the week with a collection inspired by fashion illustrator René Gruau. The artist's heyday of the 1950s provided the silhouette: voluminous skirts or pencil skirts and billowy tops cinched at the waist.
The real dazzle was in the color. The shading of an illustrator's pen translated magically to yards of tulle that faded from red to black as they traversed the body. Layer upon layer of yellow and off-white tulle gave a dress a richness of blurred color. A delicate sheath of silk peeked out from the hem of jackets and skirts. Pencil strokes were zagged on dresses.
The collection was not Mr. Galliano at his most daring. But the visual effects, such as the plaid sequin embroidery that faded away on a skirt, proved that couture can be more artistic than ready-to-wear.
Jean-Paul Gaultier put on another feat of showmanship for his Gaultier Paris couture line. Mr. Gaultier quit his job designing for Hermès last fall in order to dedicate himself entirely to his namesake brand. His renewed focus appeared evident in an amped-up cancan-meets-punk look.
The setting was somewhat austere: Instead of throbbing music, most of his soundtrack was a recording of Catherine Deneuve describing each outfit, a nod to the way couture used to be presented to clients. But the audience was enthralled, applauding at every new look.
The show opened with a few daytime looks and cocktail dresses. One black leather to-the-knee skirt was punctured with tiny holes to make it slightly gauzy. Another skirt was entirely embroidered with snaps, giving it a dull metal shine.
Mr. Gaultier quickly veered to formal dressing. He played on the iconic "marinière" blue-and-white striped sailor's shirt by overlapping navy and ivory strips of organdy in a strapless floor-length gown. A one-shouldered trench coat in hot pink satin with a large ruffle around the collar was playful and glamorous. The show closed with a dancer from the Parisian cabaret Crazy Horse doing the cancan down the runway.
Girlish Style at Chanel
Chanel, Paris' other legendary couture house, had a completely different take on the most expensive fashion money can buy. Founder Coco Chanel once expressed distate toward denim, but that didn't stop designer Karl Lagerfeld from offering hand-made custom jeans with pewter buttons running down the calf. It was couture for a new generation: tweed miniskirts worn over slim pants and a scarf tied at the waist.
Yet it was a collection a mother could buy her daughter without fearing she will look too racy. High-neckline jackets and calf-length sequined dresses left little visible skin. The pale pink that dominated the collection added to the girlishness.
Leave it to one of the youngest designers around to lift hemlines. Maxime Simoens, a 26-year-old former apprentice at Dior, Gaultier and Balenciaga, hiked skirts way up above the knee. He took his inspiration from "Marie Antoinette"—Sofia Coppola's reworking of the aristocrat's life—and the pale pinks, blues and golds from the movie appeared marbled on jacquard minidresses.
Surprisingly, it was the aging designer Giorgio Armani who delivered the most futuristic couture collection this season for his Armani Privé. He used blends of silk and metal for a shiny effect. Some of the dresses had strong curves around the neckline and the waist, creating a wave of fabric that moved away from the body to reveal a jewel shade beneath.
Though Armani is a perennial red-carpet dresser—Jodie Foster was in the front row—starlets may find these avant-garde gowns, which seemed to hover several inches off the body, a hard look to pull off. But Mr. Armani made a strong statement that he can be as cutting-edge in couture as he is commercial in ready-to-wear. And couture found a way to set itself apart again.

"all went well, got what I ordered in a timely fashion."
"Have yet to receive my order which was placed a month ago!"
"Warning: company website lies about books being stock, charges cc for items they dont even have. Dont buy here!
See reply from company. They are verifying that don't have the book that their site said they had and verifying they don't even know when it will ship! To say they apologize on behalf of vendor is bull. As a buyer I don't care how they get their items. It a seller or store states they have an item to sell then they better have the item! Betterbooks need to apologize for saying they had a book available to order that they don't have! Blaming a "vendor"? Its not the vendor fault that betterbooks makes claim to have iterms they dont have. On July 30th site said book in stock. Now here on Aug 11 they can't even give a date it will be sent! Ridiculous and inexcusable to deceive buyers into thinking they have items available and outright lying as to when the will ship out. They are at fault! And I don't appreciate them calling me by name on public site. I didn't give permission to do that. A measly refund on the ship cost for that one book? What $2.wow that makes it all better:[ For the trouble they have caused me they had better overnight that book!
I spent the overpriced cost to get my books shipped in two days. This was on a Wednesday July 30th. I was pleased that on Friday I got 4 of 5 books ordered. Unfortunately one the used books was beyond "used" condition. I tried to taped it back together so my daughter wouldn't be so embarrassed using the sad looking book. You would think the price of books would corelate to the condition. The cost I paid for used book was less then$10 off from the new condition book. But at least I got it. My main problem is the new English 9 book I ordered. I assumed the final book would arrive Sat since I paid for 2 day ship. Note on the site it stated this particular books shipped in 24-48hrs while the others stated 24 hrs. I assumed it was shipping from a different local. It is now Thursay, 8 days later with no word on when I will get the English book. Classes have started and my daughter is the only one without the book. Of course they charged my cc the full amount on July 31st, its now August 7th. even though no English book has been sent. I thought companies couldn't charge cc until for an item until its been shipped. I can't log into acct either to find status of order. I provided my email at time order but the site says no such email so it can't locate my acct. I has searched site for a customer service phone number or at the very least an email find out when I will the finally get the book. This is a book that cost over $100 too. I am very frustrated. When googling for a business phone number I found this and thought it was best to warn others.
Update: its even worse! I found an email and while I did get a quick reply. I am told they don't have the book in stock AND have NO IDEA when they will get it from supplier. The site did not say this when I ordered it clearly stated the item would ship in 24-48hrs! Now being 8 days later and they still don't know when they will get the item, to then in turn ship it to me?? I was clearly misled and would of not of ordered if the site was truthful. I was in an extreme hurry which is why I had to chose the high priced 2 day shipping. To know its not even on its way is devasting. Is it even legal for a company to charge a cc for item they dont have and dont know when they will get? I went to site to see if the book is showing out of stock so future buyers would know the truth. instead of saying ships in 24-48 hrs like it did when I purchased it now says 3-5 days. The company knows they dont have the book, yet is still deceiving customers by saying when it will ship when they have no idea if they will even get the book! They were not honest to me and not being honest to future buyers. I was given fraudulent information by the website but thankfully the csr told me the truth and now I am warning you. I am stuck because they already charged my cc for item they cant even tell me when they will get. I will never place an order here again knowing that they are dishonest on the website about what is in stock, tricking people into making purchases. If I could 0 stars I would have!"
"Good Morning Laura!

"Absolutely will NEVER deal with this site again. After telling me that my order was cancelled, I went to another site to order my text book. I still had not received my refund 2 weeks later, so I called to see why that was. To my surprise the order was now "shipped" and charged to my card. I now have to pay to send the book back because of the site's mistake, and will not have the refund for 3-5 weeks. awful site. rude, and horrible customer service when I went to them with questions about the matter."

Barcelona Beats Santos 4-0 to Win Soccer's Club World Cup Title
European champion Barcelona beat Brazilian club Santos 4-0 yesterday to win soccer's FIFA Club World Cup for a second time in three years.
Lionel Messi got two goals in Yokohama, Japan, with Xavi Hernandez and Cesc Fabregas also scoring for the Spanish club.
"We are extremely happy and our performance, especially in the first half, was very satisfactory," Agence France-Presse cited Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola as saying.
The result gives Europe a fifth straight winner in the annual competition, which is contested by the champions of each continent's soccer federation. Japan's Kashiwa Reysol also qualified this year's as winner of the host nation's J League.
Brazilian teams won the first three editions of the tournament, with AC Milan, Manchester United and Inter Milan joining Barcelona as champions since.
Yesterday's victory gives Barcelona a 13th title in 3 1/2 years since Guardiola was appointed, including two Champions League successes and three La Liga crowns.
Messi gave Barcelona a 17th-minute lead with a chip over the goalkeeper, after which Xavi then doubled the advantage seven minutes later.
Barcelona took a three-goal lead into halftime as Fabregas got his goal just before the interval. The Spaniards continued to create chances in the second half and Messi completed the win when he took the ball around the goalkeeper on 82 minutes.
Asia champion Al-Sadd of Qatar took third spot with a 5-3 win on penalty kicks against Kashiwa following a 0-0 draw.

Joe Casey insanity filtered through Tom Scioliâs frenetic art produces yet another cosmitastic issue. Youâll all recall that I created the word âcosmitasticâ in my review of issue 26 to describe this comic and, yeah, it still stands. "Gødlandâ is cosmitastic!" Thatâs a pull quote if I ever read one!
In many ways, itâs difficult to write a âseriousâ review of âGødland,â because the book is just so fun in its insanity. Half of this issue has Adam Archer teaming up with a mother/son cosmic Viking duo, while the other half has Friedrich Nickelhead and his supervillain army continue their takeover of Capital Hill.
Adam Archerâs quest to find his sister takes a detour that seems familiar, but the spin that Casey and Scioli put on it is unique. A powerful cosmic baddy, a pair of heroes standing against him, and the new guy caught in the middle. Seems ho-hum seen-it-before, donât-need-to-see-it-again. Hardly, sir/ma'am! A mother and son dynamic duo protect the universe against a demonic evolutionist, and seem nonplused when he escapes, because thatâs the way things go. Theyâre an oddball superhero pair without any direct reference to that fact.
Or, thereâs Nickelheadâs takeover of Congress as he wages a war for the rights of supervillains everywhere. He spends more time pontificating then acting until the army tries to invade. Thereâs some generic villains and horrific use of a tank before Nickelhead makes two demands, only one of which make sense.
Both plots are ludicrous and played (almost) completely straight with some of the most ridiculous lines ever written said seriously. How does one properly take in lines like âYou will pay the ultimate price for your lateral thinking!â and âHas this truth ever been more self-evident -- supervillainy is the new violence!â? How does one properly evaluate them? Either you dig âem or you donât. Thatâs the way âGødlandâ is: either you get it or you donât.
Tom Scioli continues to, of course, be the perfect match to Joe Casey, illustrating any and all craziness with flair and lots of energy. None of his characters ever simply stand around, theyâre all dynamic and fluid no matter how theyâre posed, which drives the book forward. That Caseyâs dialogue does the same is rare and adds momentum.
Whatâs left to say about âGødlandâ that hasnât been said already? Itâs a book that gets read last whenever it comes out, because not many books can follow it. It may have lost its way (both in plot and schedule) a while ago, but itâs back to being one of the best books you can read. Iâll say it again: âGødlandâ is cosmitastic!

027 on most systems. This gives a default of rw-,r--,--- which is suitable for me. I have seen some environments use 077, but unless the users are very limited in what the can do (so why give them a shell at all?) or experienced it just causes helpdesk/IT issues.

The authors describe the design of a harmonic analyzer for use in studying the harmonic content of commercial electric power. This MC 68000-based instrument samples the waveform and calculates the first 63 harmonics of the 60-Hz fundamental for both a voltage and current waveform. The 64-kbyte memory is adequate for one week of hourly samples for a power-quality survey by an electrical utility. The analyzer is quickly attached to the outputs of potential and current transformers by alligator clips and a current plug. The harmonic data are retrieved from the instrument by a portable computer. A separate personal computer (PC) program is then used for data analysis. Accuracy is shown to be about 0.1%, more than adequate for power quality surveys

Canada Stocks Fall on Global Growth Concerns, Gold Shares Rally
Canadian stocks fell, led by energy producers, on concern a slowdown in China's manufacturing sector will cause global economic growth to falter.
Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., the country's second-biggest energy company, dropped 5.6 percent. Barrick Gold Corp., the world's largest producer, rose 1.7 percent, on demand for the precious metal as an alternative investment. Bank of Nova Scotia, Canada's third-largest bank by assets, gained 2.6 percent after second-quarter profit jumped to a record, boosted by higher fees from lending and credit cards.
The Standard & Poor's/TSX Composite Index lost 191.02 points, or 1.6 percent, to 11,571.97 in Toronto. Stocks extended their losses after a report that Lebanon fired on Israeli warplanes spurred concern tensions in the Middle East are escalating.
"There is still concern about where global economic growth is going in light of the Chinese data, which is playing out in the resource side of things," said Greg Eckel, who helps manage C$900 million ($857 million) at Toronto-based Morgan Meighen & Associates Ltd. "Yesterday we got a little ahead of the U.S. market and there may be some retracement of that."
The S&P/TSX dropped 3.7 percent in May, better than all but one of the 24 developed markets in the world. Germany's DAX Index lost 2.8 percent. Stock markets slumped around the world in May as concern mounted that European austerity measures and Chinese attempts to curb growth will hamper the global economic recovery. The Canadian stock benchmark rose 0.8 percent yesterday when the U.S. market was closed for a holiday.
China Misses
China's Purchasing Managers' Index fell to 53.9, missing the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey of economists.
Teck Resources Ltd., Canada's largest base-metals producer, lost 7.3 percent to C$33.87, while Canadian Natural Resources declined C$2.1 to C$35.15. Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc., the world's largest fertilizer producer, fell 4.8 percent to $101.98. EnCana Corp., Canada's largest natural-gas producer, declined 3.2 percent to $32.18.
Energy producers fell the most as a group in the benchmark index for Canadian stocks as the 53 member S&P/TSX Energy index lost 3 percent.
Gold futures for August delivery gained $11.90, or 1 percent, to $1,226.90 an ounce on the Comex in New York on demand for an alternative to the euro amid concern that the sovereign debt crisis will slow the region's economic recovery. Earlier, the price touched $1,230.20, the highest since May 17.
Barrick Gold Corp. increased 76 cents to $44.91. Goldcorp Inc., the world's second-largest producer of the metal by market value, rose 0.3 percent, or 12 cents, to C$45.61.
U.S. Building
Construction spending in the U.S. rose in April by the most since 2000 as demand related to the end of a tax credit spurred builders to break ground on more houses. Manufacturing in the U.S. expanded in May for a 10th month as factories continued to help propel the economic recovery.
The Bank of Canada raised its key interest rate to 0.5 percent from 0.25 percent, as predicted by 25 of 27 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. It was Mark Carney's first increase as governor and the bank's first since July 2007.
Excluding one-time items, Scotiabank said it had profit of C$1.04 a share. The bank was forecast to earn 93 cents a share on that basis, based on the average estimate of 11 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News. The shares rose 2.6 percent to $49.52.
Semafo Inc., the Saint-Laurent, Quebec-based mineral prospector with properties in Africa, jumped 5.1 percent to C$7.28 after reporting that the plant expansion program at its Mana Mine in Burkina Faso is on budget and gold output will be about 40,000 ounces a year.

|Goodwill Receives Employer Award from Mayor's Advisory Committee for People with Disabilities
(Middle Tenn) — The Mayor's Advisory Committee for People with Disabilities recognized Goodwill Industries of Middle Tennessee for its commitment to improve the lives of persons with disabilities. The Employer Award recognizes a business that hires, accommodates, supports, develops and retains employees with disabilities. Betty Johnson, Vice President and Chief People Officer and Debbie Grant, Development Director were on hand to receive award on Thursday, October 17 during a reception at the Nashville Farmer's Market.
Goodwill Industries of Middle Tennessee has both served candidates with disabilities and employed individuals with disabilities since its inception in 1957. In 2007, Goodwill began the Transitional Employment Services Program. The goal of this program is to provide up to six months of paid work experience for candidates with disabilities. At the end of the six months, case managers assist the trainees as they apply for jobs both at Goodwill and with community employers.
"The proof of Goodwill's success is in the increase in number of employees who have a disability," said Betty Johnson, vice president and chief people officer. "Today, our Goodwill employs more than 600 people with disabilities. That's up from 300 just two years ago."
Goodwill Industries of Middle Tennessee is one of Tennessee's largest employers of persons with disabilities.

Bob: I have a yellow Labrador retriever. She barks a lot, usually for no reason at all. She pees and poos anywhere she wan, regardless of the fact that somebody has to clean up her messes. When pushed into a corner, she hides and hope the danger passes her without her doing anything to protect herself or our property ( her supposed job). Sounds a lot like Donald Trump, but wouldn't insult her by making the comparison. What little respect I ever had for Trump disappeared with this racist, boorish outburst.

I have a Comcast SMC Business cable router. I need to be able to manage this router from the internet via apple remote desktop. I know that the comcast smc router/modem is pretty stripped down. Is there any way to use apple remote desktop with this SMC router or will I need to use a 3 party router(dlink) to accomplish this? Thanks
migrated from stackoverflow.com Jul 22 '09 at 14:58
This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
Apple Remote Desktop is built on VNC, so as long as you port-forward the VNC ports (5900 by default) through that router to the Mac that is running the management interface, you should be able to connect to the Mac.
There is a problem, though: your network design is sort of like chainsawing the limb you're standing on! Any reboot of the router will drop your VNC connection, and if you make a wrong move, you may not be able to get back in to fix it without trudging over to the physical location.
Point of order: have you seen serverfault.com? It might be a more appropriate place for a networking question like this one.

Like anything in its infancy, there will be growing pains.
Such has been the case with the wrestling program at Linsly.
But as the latest incarnation of the Cadets heads in to the Ron Mauck OVAC Wrestling Tournament on Thursday night, head coach Brian Valentine says he's leading a squad that's wise beyond it's years.
In other words, don't let the fact that Linsly's program is only in its second year fool you. There's talent on this team and they're eager to show it.
"We have a lot of kids that work hard, and that's all I could ever ask of them," Valentine said.
Valentine graduated from Linsly in 2002 and wrestled for the Cadets. He returned to his alma mater three years to serve as a physical education teacher.
"Some of the kids had heard I wrestled and wanted to know if I could get a program going," Valentine said.
One thing led to another an, with a tremendous amount of support from Linsly's administration, wrestling returned as a varsity sport to the Woodsdale campus.
"We went from 15 kids last year to 24 this year," Valentine beamed. "It's just been a great experience for me to come back and do something I like so much.
"To me, it's the toughest sport there is."
And, perhaps, the most rewarding.
"We're doing really well so far this season," Valentine said. "Our dual meet record is 4-2 and every tournament we've been in we've placed well.
"Our enthusiasm has been great. I couldn't ask for anything more."
Linsly's lineup is strongest at the top and bottom of its lineup.
At 106 pounds, freshman Tommy Curtin has been a pleasant surprise, sporting a 13-1 mark behind victories in tournaments at Barnesville and Cameron.
"He's a really tough kid," Valentine said. "He should be one of the top seeds. He placed in Ohio in middle school."
Football standouts Chimechi Oparanozie and Chuckwudi Chukwu secure the backend of Linsly's lineup at 220 and 285 pounds, respectively. Oparanzie is 12-1 and won the Barnesville Invitational and finished second at Cameron.
Chukwu, meanwhile, at 13-1, won at Cameron and placed third at Barnesville.
Valentine sees the prospects for placing at OVACs high for Curtin, Oparanzoie and Chukwu.
"We have a couple of kids that maybe have a shot at winning,'' Valentine said. "But we really don't make goals per se as to where we want to finish individually. We'd like to finish in the top 3 in our class. That would be a big deal for us."
At 113, Linsly has sophomore Thomas Mossman (5-6), while sophomore Brady Nanners has won the job at 126 pounds. Both are first-year wrestlers.
Brady Bower, a junior, competes at 132 and is in his second year on the mats.
"He's a quick learner and loves to compete,'' Valentine said.
Sophomore Jay Mascara (4-3) is another first-year competitors who Valentine describes as "very explosive." He wrestles at 138.
At 145 is the first of the Giovengos, Johnny. He competes at 145 and sports a 4-5 mark thus far. Gage Giovengo wrestles at 160 and he's 9-5. Both are sons of former Linsly coach Bob Giovengo.
"I respect him a lot," Valentine said. "It's been great having him around."
Benton Nanners competes at 152. He's a senior and is 3-5.
Another promising sophomore is Von Wooding. The 170-pounder is 9-5 and finished third at Cameron.
Rounding out the Cadets' lineup at junior Will McClure (5-8) at 195 and sophomore Ify Chima at 182. Chima is 1-1 and is coming off a injury.
"My goals were to get more kids interested and get enthusiasm up, and that's happened," Valentine said. "Hopefully, we can place in the top 3. We have a lot of young kids wrestling hard. That would be a good finish for us."

My interest in weather really spun up during my career in wildland fire management in Southern California, as weather has a tremendous affect on wildfire starts and behavior.

This is so classic
This is on point,
Classic 90's beat with a flow to match. This has that Souls of Mischief / Pharcyde vibe which I dig very much.
I'm going to put this on my summer mix tape once I get Virtual DJ set up right.
I so dig this track we all have to collab really soon.
You should get Freddy to make more beats for you.
OMG THIS TRACK IS SO GOOD. { :) { :) 5/5 10/10 & a DL =b d=
Thanks for the vibe.

Inter Milan Coach Benitez Targets Mascherano: Soccer Roundup
The following is a roundup of soccer stories from U.K. newspapers, with clickable links to the Web.
Mascherano Chase
Inter Milan manager Rafael Benitez has made Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano his main transfer target, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Benitez yesterday signed a two-year contract to coach Inter Milan, replacing Jose Mourinho, who left for Real Madrid after winning the Champions League. Benitez left Liverpool on June 3.
Vidic Replacement
Manchester United has put in a bid for Palermo defender Simon Kjaer as a possible replacement for Nemanja Vidic, the Daily Mail reported.
Vidic, who has a contract with United until 2012, may leave Old Trafford this summer for Real Madrid, Barcelona or AC Milan, the newspaper said.
Wenger Likes Cole
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has expressed an interest in signing Joe Cole, the Daily Mirror reported.
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are also keen to sign the England player, who is a free agent this summer after being released by Chelsea.
"I like him as a player because when he played against us he always did a lot of damage," the Mirror quoted Wenger as saying in South Africa yesterday.
Anelka Contract
Nicolas Anelka is expected to sign a new two-year contract with Chelsea, the Daily Express reported.
Anelka, who makes 90,000 pounds ($131,877) a week at the London club, did not ask for a pay rise during the negotiations, the Express said. He scored 15 goals last season.
Benitez Donation
Benitez marked his departure from Liverpool with a 96,000 pound donation to the Hillsborough Family Support Group, the Sun reported. Ninety-six Liverpool fans died after a crush at the start of an F.A. Cup semi-final at Sheffield's Hillsborough stadium in 1989.

Something Reckless (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Prim, headstrong, and beautiful Penelope is determined to expose the licentious affairs of the ton's randiest rakes. Now one of their powerful number—the unrepentant libertine Jeremy Vaughn, Duke of Kilgrath—has been selected to put an end to the prudish lady's interference. Jeremy's plan is devilishly clever: He will join Penelope's war against immorality, fighting passionately by her side, all the while showering her with anonymous erotic missives designed to titillate even the coldest, most unwilling maid. He will break down her defenses and inflame her repressed desires by escorting her (in the interests of their "noble campaign") to London's most notorious pleasure palaces. And he will visit her boudoir—masked—during the night to school her in the deliciously sinful arts she wishes to abolish. Then he will expose her hypocrisy to the world.
But the handsome rogue's scheme is doomed to go awry, even as the lovely Penelope sheds her every inhibition and freely gives in to his every whim. For in this sensuous game of hearts, it's the seducer who becomes seduced . . .
About the Author
Jess Michaels always flips through every romance she buys in search of "the good stuff," so it makes perfect sense that she writes erotic romance where she gets to turn up the heat and let it boil. She also runs the popular website The Passionate Pen and writes historical romance as Jenna Petersen.

If you stepped outside your mid-January, Netflix-addled cave recently you probably heard something about Minnesota Vikings kicker Blair Walsh, and his devastating botched attempt at taking home the W last weekend against the Seattle Seahawks. To put it lightly, it was an unanticipated moment of sheer unfettered insanity.
A 27-yard-attempt miss. Nobody saw that coming. Check out this absurd compilation of fan reactions from both ends of the spectrum:
Anyways following all that madness, a first-grade class wrote a collection of encourage letters to Blair Walsh to cheer the saddened soul up. He responded in pretty much the best and most gracious way possible by visiting the kids today at Northpoint Elementary School in Blaine, Minnesota.
Follow @BlairWalsh3's visit to 1st graders on @Snapchat - Vikings. pic.twitter.com/sdk0dx4TlW— Minnesota Vikings (@Vikings) January 14, 2016
The children passed along advice in their letters like, 'you are handsome,' and 'everyone makes mistakes sometimes. One time I made a mistake when I was doing a cartwheel.'
Cartwheels are tough as fu*k though, so totally understand on that account. Suffice to say, all parties involved were feeling seven kinds of thankful. Keep your head up Walsh!
"For them to show this empathy and kindness towards me is remarkable." - @BlairWalsh3— Minnesota Vikings (@Vikings) January 14, 2016
During an NFL pregame show on WUSA-TV in Washington, DC, Manley employed dumbed-down, reckless judgment on par with a Buffalo Bills tailgater who thought it'd be chill to jump onto a flaming table today.
Manley was speculating on Cam Newton, who might be selected as the first black quarterback ever named NFL MVP. Newton's had 626 rushing yards this season, which is in every sense of the word, 'madness.'
You can pretty much see Manley's co-host bow his head, and die on the spot. Like, wow man.
Dexter Manley has some thoughts on black quarterbacks: https://t.co/yPpM4JDRhC pic.twitter.com/bXwZINgT5n— Deadspin (@Deadspin) January 3, 2016
You're not doing it right dude. Kudos to Buffalo Bills fans though for helping this beer-soaked idiot out.

Buffalo Bills fans this year have been ranked as the NFL's drunkest fans; and it seems like they're hellbent on one-upping the prior game's hysterical, purely irrational antics.
From this gnarly RKO awhile ago:
To this absolute depraved act of moonsaulting debauchery:
@Deadspin @espn @WORLDSTAR @buffalobills @TheBuffaloNews BUFFALO BILLS FANS ARE THE DRUNKEST FANS pic.twitter.com/A0nPwW1nxh— Jeffery (@jumbojeffk) November 8, 2015
Stay safe out there Buffalo Bills fans!
It's a great big old mystery. Granted, Johnny Manziel is out for the rest the season with a concussion. Though, if these reports stack up and the Cleveland kid fresh out of rehab (again) was spotted in Vegas the night before his team's big game, well there's no way to frame that favorably. Dick move all around man.
On the one side we've Johnny Hornaceck, a writer from USA Today, and some sort of Tina Turner impersonator, and a cocktail waitress that all claim they saw Manziel at Planet Hollywood in Vegas. Hmm.
Johnny manziel at planet Hollywood- Browns have a game tomorrow against the steelers right? #Browns #ClevelandBrowns #NFL— Johnny Hornacek (@Johnnyhornacek3) January 3, 2016
@ClevelandRoks @LAndyman_ I'm sitting with a writer for the USA today. He saw him too as did our cocktail waitress- who verified it was him— Johnny Hornacek (@Johnnyhornacek3) January 3, 2016
On the competing side, we've a potentially recycled picture of Manziel and his dog back at his home in Ohio.
We're eager to see how this one plays out. Either way, not how you want to start up a Sunday--as the Browns or Manziel.
Yesterday, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted the Seattle Seahawks running back the trademark to his phrase, "I'm just here so I won't get fined".
Lynch filed for the trademark less than 3 weeks after he used it to answer more than 20 questions at Super Bowl XLIX's media day.
The New England Patriots played all day as if they were wearing ankle weights against the New York Jets, but still managed to push the game past regulation into overtime with a late and shining moment of clutch city from Tom Brady. Let's just say things went downhill fast soon as OT started.
In an act of madness the Patriots chose to kickoff, after winning the coin flip for overtime.
Here is the transcript of the coin toss at MetLife. Seems like Slater just made a mistake. Game-changer. pic.twitter.com/ajuyE0u2Ml— Kevin Seifert (@SeifertESPN) December 27, 2015
@MikeGarafolo pic.twitter.com/9dLTXxMSOv— Eli Chesner (@eli_chesner) December 27, 2015
Unsurprisingly it took the Jets a mere five plays to drive down the field for a six-yard TD pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick to Eric Decker for the win.

A Caryville, FL man is in custody after undercover investigators say they purchased crack cocaine from occupants in his home.
Investigators say the Washington County Drug Task executed a drug raid on Daryl Devon Work's Caryville home Wednesday night.
They say they found crack cocaine packed for sell with a shot gun and large amounts of cash.
He's been charged with possession with intent to distribute and four counts of sell and deliver.

by MillipedeThat what was forgotten....All this time though a dark wave was cresting over our existence.Through the years as my husband gained weight until he was morbidly obese, health problems cropped up, some requiring hospitalization. As you can guess the bills started coming in. While he was able to pay some of them, the larger one's were never fully paid off. Then there was the truck driving school lone. For a while, my husband was able to make the minimum payment. Then he got behind and was never able to get caught up. He would pay, but always be a month or to behind. All it would take was some other financial need to crop up and we would miss a payment. This made the … [Read more...]
Millipede: Part 9
Millipede: Part 8
by MillipedeThe next couple of years were what I would call the "golden years" of Patriarchy. By this I mean that we were living the Patriarchal dream, with the husband "leading" and providing and the wife keeping the home and being submissive. It was the apex of our journey; we were finally living the lifestyle.As i wrote earlier it was during this time that I experienced the joys of having the time to pursue varied interests. My husband drove overland the first year or so and then the latter part, he had a regional route. This meant that he was gone for weeks at a time when he was going across country. Later, with a regional route, he was home every weekend. In retrospect, I think … [Read more...]
Just Pray for Him: How the Christian Church Refuses to Hold Abusive Men Accountable
By Lisa Kroulik © Cross posted with permission from Hub Pages - http://nybride710.hubpages.com/hub/How-the-Christian-Church-is-Failing-Abused-Women One of the more difficult things to recover from during the process of divorce from my narcissistic ex-husband was the treatment I received from other Christians. To be fair, none of it was intentionally mean-spirited and all of these people truly believed they were encouraging me from God's word. Unfortunately, the "advice" I received kept me trapped in an abusive marriage three years longer than I should have been.The thing is, all of the responsibility for keeping my marriage together was placed squarely on … [Read more...]
Millipede Part 7
by MillipedeThis is not to say that my years embracing Patriarchy were all bad. Despite many bad changes and warning signs, there were moments of joy. Staying at home was fun. I promised myself to stay busy so as it was all too tempting to sit around. I made myself a "work" schedule complete with breaks and of course, an end to the workday. I would spend time keeping house, but also do a lot of fun projects. I gardened, made Maple syrup and a myriad of other activities which I truly loved. Although I missed work, I found that a housewife could be just as much of a worker. In fact there are legitimate issues concerning the need for someone to stay at home. Unfortunately, the Patriarchy … [Read more...]
Who Was That Masked Man? Part 6
by CaluluWhen we last left the Smiths they had reconciled and were determined to make everyone be best friends forever again. Nothing doing.Things ratchet up a few new levels of tension. 9/11 happens. I'm sitting in front of the television having coffee and folding clothes when CNN shows the coverage of the first tower getting hit and I'm still watching when the second plane hits the other one of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. By the time the plane hits the Pentagon and there are rumors on television of another plane being spotted on the way to Capital Hill where my husband works I was pretty wrung up. My phone kept ringing off the hook from friends and relatives wanting … [Read more...]
Millipede: Part 6
by MillipedeI hated the the underlying spirit which had crept into our marriage; it was a peevish, disapproving air that my husband had taken on. In our "heathen" days my husband had a happy go lucky air. This was endearing and made up for the fact that he could be irresponsible.Under Christian patriarchy this changed. Not only was he now "head of the household", but he was responsible for making sure that we lived a "Godly life". This permeated every bit of our life as we didn't want to be "Sunday Only" Christians; God was not someone that we turned our back on for the other six days of the week.This affected how I dressed, what we ate, what entertainment we watched or listened … [Read more...]
Who Was That Masked Man? Part 5
by CaluluSo when we left off Tina was still believing that Tom was coming home. We were having nothing to do with the Smiths and Tom doesn't come home.What he does do is go to my husband and ask him to talk to me about working a few mornings a week at his office to transfer all his paper documents into digital on his new computer system. I don't want to do it but it's a little slow that spring in my job so I grit my teeth, bite my tongue and start going into his office for four hours every morning. I know this is a mistake but hey, there's not much going on to prevent me and Tom isn't going to be there at the same time as me, win-win. I'm such a sap. Plus I'd quit working at the … [Read more...]
Millipede: Part 5
by Millipede Peevish men, wives who watched every word and worse they really embraced the submission beliefs. The wives would gripe very rarely about their husbands and the work and if they did they were sure to say that they weren't in disagreement with the system, ,merely letting off a little steam.The women were just as much true believers. This isn't as I first thought/hoped in that Patriarchy can be a humane system for women. Instead I realized that there will always be those who for varying reasons, become ardent followers of movements which harm them. There are women who will accept or even come to love degradation if it comes approval and "love". Look at people in … [Read more...]
Who Was That Masked Man? Part 1
by CaluluThis is a new series that I'm starting. I actually started writing about my history with the one person that impacted me the most during my days at the old church. I'm flip, I'm sarcastic in this series but mostly I am processing what happened to me because it seems like a plot straight out of the recently cancelled series GCB (Good Christian Bitches). After telling my therapist years ago about this man I was encouraged to write it all down. I did and if I didn't laugh and poke fun I'd be crying right now. It was the most corrosive relationship I've ever been in and I didn't even have the common sense to run from it. I've changed names and some small details because until … [Read more...]
Unwrapping the Onion: Part 1: A Secret Revealed
by Permission to LiveThis post is part of a series of nine posts. Please click here to start with the series Introduction.As many of you know, my spouse and I got married young after a short parent-supervised courtship. We began our marriage "the right way" according to everything we believed. We had obeyed our parents and stayed pure from emotional relationships or sexual activity, so when we got married neither of us had ever been intimate with any other person. We were wholeheartedly committed to our Christian beliefs at that time, feeling certain that birth control was wrong in almost any circumstance and that men should be the family leaders and women should be submissive. My hus … [Read more...]
