A period weather boarded cottage offering far reaching views across the marshes to the Citadel at Rye and shared use of the owners above ground swimming pool. Situated snug in its hilltop setting amongst tile-hung cottages and award winning tea shops. Seven centuries ago, the new town was founded by Edward I to take the place of an older town of the same name which had been lost to the sea in a series of storms and now lies beneath the waters of Rye Bay. It became a bustling cinque port town and the centre of the wine trade with France with a smuggling history and hidden wine cellars beneath the broad streets, and it is the smallest town in the country to have its own mayor. Visit the museum and the 13th century church. Home to the writers Thackeray and Conrad, the actress Ellen Terry, and Millais was inspired to paint his famous portrait 'The Blind Girl' with Winchelsea in the background. Winchelsea is situated where the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty meets Romney Marsh.

Today I would like to share a few thoughts with high school seniors about tying up any college admission loose ends.
First, though, a loose end so large it could be an entire garment: Submitting the FAFSA online to be sure you are considered for need-based financial aid. As was covered in last month's column, 1) the FAFSA is essential to colleges in figuring out your relative financial need and 2) the earlier you apply the better your chances of receiving aid. So if you hope to be considered for need-based aid but haven't filed your FAFSA, do so immediately. While it's no longer early, it may not be too late.
Here are a few things I discussed last week with the students I am working with about how you should respond to any admission or scholarship/financial aid offers you receive from colleges.
Colleges should allow applicants to have until as late as May 1 to choose freely from all offers of admission and financial aid. A college may ask a student to decide earlier, but if you are a "regular decision" applicant you should have until as late as May 1 to finally decide. A college definitely should not put an offer of admission or scholarship on the table and threaten to retract it if the student doesn't accept by any date prior to May 1.
The student's side of the deal is that when May 1 comes, it is time to decide. Colleges and students both need time to plan. If you are admitted to a place that has more students ready to enroll than they have places to put them, someone is waiting on your spot. If you do not notify the school by May 1, they will assume you aren't coming and give your place to someone else.
But please don't make anyone assume anything. You should write all schools you were admitted to (e-mail is OK) and let them know if you are coming. They likely have told you many times how much they want you there – it's just common courtesy to let them know.
Your message doesn't need to explain your reasons, although colleges would appreciate the feedback. But you can simply say, "Thank you for admitting me to University X. Although it was a difficult decision, I have made plans to attend college elsewhere."
By the way, if you have made a housing deposit at a school you will not attend, letting them know your plans by May 1 should entitle you to a full refund of that deposit. Application fees are not refundable.
If you are having a hard time choosing, learn how well a college may fit you by taking advantage of the admitted student open houses many colleges host on campus in April. These programs are information-rich and provide the chance for you to see and visit with potential future classmates.
I hope you find a college that fits you just right! And, please, let them know by May 1.
For more information on the May 1 reply date, visit the National Association for College Admission Counseling Web site, click on "About NACAC" and choose "Policies and Statements." From there just click on "Statement of Principles of Good Practice."

At the end of this week I will have been working my way through this project for over a year. Right now the project feels a long way from where it started and frankly I'm not very comfortable with how it's developed. The original idea (rewriting the rules of brand design) is gone and I honestly couldn't say it's been replaced with another central theme. The publishers I've spoken to have all been interesting and very positive throughout, but I'm still concerned about two areas:
- The publishing world in general is in a state of flux. Digital publishing, iBooks, print on demand and Amazon's Kindle have altered the way books are consumed. Traditional publishing houses have not been quick to adapt their operations to these changes. All of which leads me to think a traditional printed and bound book is not the most appropriate media to deliver this project.
- I'm struggling to justify the environmental impact to myself. Having looked in to the publishing world, the sheer amount of print, packaging, transport and general waste is dizzying. Again it's another area that traditional publishers have not sufficiently adjusted to.
All of this leads me to a point where I feel the need to rethink it all. I don't wish to follow the traditional publishing route, but I've not been able to find a satisfactory alternative. I don't wish to drop the ideas and work done, but I don't want to continue with it's current path. So for now the project is on hold.
I'm grateful for all the contributions, help and encouragement I've been given so far. I am convinced it will emerge in the future, in some other guise.

AUSTIN (June 25, 2014) Environmental concerns were raised about a plan to allow billboards as high as 65 feet tall along some Texas highways as the Texas Transportation Commission heard public testimony Tuesday.
Written comments on the proposal will be accepted through July 14.
By August, the panel is expected to decide on whether to raise the current 42.5-feet height restriction.
The Texas Department of Transportation has proposed the change, which is supported by advertising companies, as part of an overhaul of billboard rules.
Katherine Romans, who manages landowner outreach for the Hill Country Alliance, says people don't need more billboards or taller billboards.
The group supports protecting natural resources.
Billy Reagan with Reagan Outdoor Advertising says taller signs are needed because the speed of travel has increased and highways have expanded.

Fed Isn't Overly Concerned About Rising Stock Valuations, At Least Not Yet
Stock valuations haven't risen enough to make the Federal Reserve fret just yet.
But they have jumped just enough to warrant a discussion at the Fed's latest policy meeting. Here's how the conversation unfolded, according to the minutes from last month's gathering (MoneyBeat's emphasis included):
"Participants also reviewed indicators of financial vulnerabilities that could pose risks to financial stability and the broader economy. These indicators generally suggested that such risks were moderate, in part because of the reduction in leverage and maturity transformation that has occurred in the financial sector since the onset of the financial crisis. In their discussion of potential risks, several participants commented on the rise in forward price-to-earnings ratios for some small-cap stocks, the increased level of equity repurchases, or the rise in margin credit. One pointed to the increase in issuance of leveraged loans this year and the apparent decline in the average quality of such loans."
The minutes don't identify officials by name, or the exact number of officials who hold a view on a particular issue. But the discussion surrounding increasing valuations and rising margin debt, popular topics of debate these days, seems to have made its way into the Fed.
The Fed's stimulus has been a major underpinning of the stock market's rise to record levels. While the surge in small-cap stocks caught the attention of Fed officials, rising valuations were a broad-based phenomenon across the markets.
Stock prices rose significantly faster than earnings growth in 2013. As a result, the price/earnings ratio on the S&P 500 jumped to 15.4 from 12.7 at the end of 2012, according to FactSet. That marked the largest expansion in the P/E ratio for stocks in a single year since 2009, when the market was recovering from the depths of the financial crisis.
The S&P 500′s forward ratio is above both the five-year and 10-year average of 13.0 and 14.0, respectively, FactSet data show.
While valuations have risen fast over the past 12 months, most market watchers say they haven't yet risen to concerning levels. But, clearly, the Fed is watching. And the higher valuations go, the more likely that this topic will garner a bigger discussion at future Fed meetings.

At a press conference, Friday, leaders said supporting the arts gives a richness to communities. It attracts tourism dollars and keeps young people in town. Leaders said since schools don't have funds to support arts education, the Nebraska Cultural Endowment steps in with grants.
"If we provide more arts opportunities for children, their educational performance is enhanced. So it's a lifetime of payoff because they get a better education, they do better in school, they move on in their lives and have greater opportunities economically and also in entertainment," said Terry Ferguson, President of Nebraska Cultural Endowment.
The Nebraska Cultural Endowment is the private partner in a private-public relationship with the state of Nebraska created to provide a livelihood for the arts and humanities in our state.

The Count: When One Overtime Breeds Another
It took Syracuse six overtimes to beat UConn, 127-117, on Thursday night and early Friday morning in the Big East Tournament. It was the first time a game has lasted that long since Cincinnati beat Bradley in seven overtimes, 75-73, in 1981. In all, there have been 136,439 Div. I college-hoops games since the 1980-1981 season through Thursday, according to Robbie Allen of StatSheet, and only those two games extended into six extra periods.
It turns out that's pretty much how many you'd expect. During that time there have been 7,015 overtime games, or about one out of every 20 games; and 8,568 overtime periods, 18% of them ending in ties. So, assuming each overtime period is created equal, you'd expect nearly 1,300 games to go past one overtime — and there have been 1,271; about 230 to go three OTs or more (real number: 217); 42 to reach a fourth extra period (52); eight of those to reach five OTs (10), one or two games to reach six OTs (2) and zero or one to reach seven extra periods (1).
So it's not surprising that some game in the last 27 years went to six overtimes, but there was no way you'd expect it for any particular game — or so I'm telling myself after failing to set the recording on my DVR long enough to catch all the extra periods when I turned in. Now I may be forced to turn in my Syracuse fan badge.
At first glance it may seem odd that just 5% of games are tied after regulation but 18% of overtime periods end in ties. But games that have reached overtime are likely to be more closely matched than the average game. And a five-minute period will be far lower-scoring than the 40 minutes of regulation, which keeps the numbers down and makes a tie more likely (consider how many games are tied five minutes into regulation but don't go into overtime).
The style of play in the last epic overtime game helps explain how it happened. Bradley and Cincinnati were tied at 61-61 at the end of regulation, according to the Peoria Journal Star — and this was apparently without the three-pointer, which had yet to be introduced nationally. So the pace of play during regulation was comparable to Syracuse-UConn, tied at 71. In the next six periods, over 30 minutes, Syracuse and UConn combined for 102 points. Bradley and Cincinnati, over seven periods and 35 minutes, combined for 28 points. "Much of regulation was played at a quick tempo, but in the overtimes both teams were content to fall into zones defensively and handle the ball out front," the Journal Star reported. So the more-recent epic game was also, arguably, the more-remarkable one.

Waiting for him to show that despite basketball skills which took so long to perfect he remains more liability than asset, more problem than solution.
The incidents. The reputation.
The stomp into the stands at Detroit. The shots fired into the air outside an Indianapolis Club. The ejection in Game 2 of the the Dallas series, which drew a $50,000 fine. The ejection in Game 5, which drew only snickers from the media.
Bad guy? The Warriors' Stephen Jackson? Or good guy?
"I'm not going to say I don't think about what the media says about me," conceded Jackson. "But at the same time, the only way I can control that or to get people to think the correct thoughts is by me going out and conducting myself as a leader, conducting myself as an NBA player.
"Conducting myself like the person I have been."
Round Two. Warriorsfrom Sports 1
against the Utah Jazz. But Round One still lingers in the mind's eye.
Jackson throwing in those 3-pointers in Game 6 against the Dallas Mavericks. Jackson throwing up his arms to help double-team Dirk Nowitzki. Jackson the hero.
Jackson the question mark.
"We were simply willing to take a risk," said Don Nelson the Warriors coach. "And I'm glad we did."
Sunday morning, and Jackson, as others, is at the team's headquarters and workout facility, pleasant, cooperative.
"He's a good-hearted guy," teammate and friend Jason Richardson said. "Always smiling. Always joking."
Not that evening in November 2004 when, then members of the Indiana Pacers, Ron Artest and Jackson swarmed into the crowd, when the Brawl at the Palace, became a blot on pro sport.
A seasonlong suspension for Artest, who interestingly was in the Warriors' locker room getting T-shirts autographed after the series win over Dallas. A 30-day suspension for Jackson.
"There's some negative press," said Jackson, who in April turned 29, "but at the same time people don't look at me like I can't play the game. The biggest thing right now is to get everything in my past to start to go away, for me to continue to be humble and worry about the positive stuff. I play with emotion, but sometimes my emotion does hurt me.
"I have to do more policing of myself. I can't rely on the coach and my teammates. I have to come to the gym and even before I step foot in the locker room have the mind-set I'm not going to worry about the referees. Just play basketball."
And he can play. In the now historic trade of late January, the Warriors acquired from Indiana, among others, Jackson and Al Harrington who once had been traded for Jackson in exchange for, among others, Troy Murphy and Mike Dunleavy Jr.
"The first day of practice here," said Nelson, "I knew Stephen Jackson was a major player."
What Jackson knew was the trade was necessary.
"I needed a new start," he explained. "But this trade was definitely a blessing in disguise for me."
Jackson's had new starts before. A lot of them.
Ruled academically ineligible to accept a scholarship at Arizona, he entered the 1997 NBA draft out of high school, was picked in the second round by the Phoenix Suns and was waived before the season started.
From there it was the La Crosse Bobcats, the Sydney, Australia, Kings, preseason 1998-99 the Chicago Bulls, Venezuela, preseason 1999-2000 the Vancouver Grizzlies, Dominican Republic, the Fort Wayne Fury and finally, 2000-01, the New Jersey Nets.
A season with the Nets led to two seasons ('02 and'03) with San Antonio, which led to a season ('04) with Atlanta and then 21/2 seasons with the Pacers.
"People don't know the person he is," said Richardson.
We're learning. Jackson should have learned to act properly.
"We needed to make a change on the court," said Nelson of obtaining Jackson. "So we were willing to take that risk off the court."
A change on the court. A player who is ingelligent and determined and talented. And remains one angry moment from ruining everything.
"I was able to control myself last game," Jackson said, "but who knows how it will be the next game. I've got to keep working. It's not going to happen overnight. I'm a fiery guy."
With a future. Also a past.

Owners of the Holly Theatre hope locals will take a trip down memory lane when the marquee is illuminated next month as part of a major effort to restore the theater to its 1930 glory. "I just think the Holly is going to sparkle on April 21," said Ron Kramer, executive director of the Jefferson Public Radio Foundation, which is funding the restoration.
The marquee, corner neon light and entryway doors are on order and should be installed for a community event to celebrate the illumination, scheduled for 7 p.m. Saturday, April 21, on the corner of Holly and Sixth streets. Easy Valley Eight will entertain guests, and 38 Central restaurant will sell refreshments.
Members of the City Council will sport 1930s-era garb, following a suggestion by Councilwoman Karen Blair.
Sometime after 8 p.m., a short presentation from the Holly Theatre Restoration Committee and Mayor Gary Wheeler will be given, followed by the lighting ceremony.
The interior of the Holly still needs a lot of work, so visitors won't be able go inside the theater.
A local company, Epic Scan, has prepared a 3-D video tour of the interior depicting what the theater will look like once it's restored. The video will be depicted on a large screen during the event.
For the past two months, scaffolding has been erected in front of the building while the general contractor, Hammonds Construction of White City, repairs windows and attends to other details on the facade.
During the ceremony, the first donor tile will be installed in the entry way to mark the $300,000 in contributions from the Medford Urban Renewal Agency toward the project.
Kramer said JPR is awaiting bids to fix a truss supporting the roof. Estimates to replace the truss are about $200,000, he said.
Some of the estimates have been coming in lower than expected, he said. For instance, asbestos abatement, estimated to cost $90,000, actually came in at $30,000.
Donors have provided $35,000 in cash for the project so far, but Kramer estimates donated labor and other free repairs that have been offered account for another $25,000 to $50,000.
JPR hopes to raise $1.8 million for the restoration through tax credits.
JPR will be restoring the entire front of the Spanish-colonial style building for an estimated $225,000. A 33-foot-tall vertical neon sign that says "Holly" will be installed on the corner of the building.
"I'm hoping this will be a very family-friendly event," Kramer said. "I'm hoping there are folks who remember the Holly way back when."

The UCLA Bruins represent the University of California and are members of the NCAA Division I. With one hundred and eight team titles to their name the Bruins rank as the most successful athletic programs in NCAA history. From soccer to football, from tennis to volleyball every team representing the UCLA Bruins has made its presence felt on the field which can be seen by their ever increasing list of titles. Seventy-one of those one hundred and eight titles have been won by the Men and thirty seven have been accumulated by the Women sides. As far as the Mens division is concerned it's the volleyball team that has won the most championship with nineteen titles to their name closely followed by tennis with sixteen. On the women side softball lead the title count with thirteen triumphs and water polo coming second with seven championships.
The UCLA Bruins Basketball team is one of the most popular sides that form the athletics division. The men's basketball started way back in 1920 with the women team coming onboard in 1974. The men's team has won a record breaking eleven championships. Their most successful era came under the tutelage of John Wooden when the UCLA Bruins basketball team won an unprecedented ten titles in only twelve years in the period between 1964 and 1975. They are also the only team in history to go unbeaten during four different seasons. Starting 1971 and going all the way to 1974, the team put together an unbelievable run of eighty eight straight wins. There is an old adage that records are made to be broken but this is one record that most people think no other team will ever be able to top. The UCLA Bruins basketball also holds the distinction of producing the most number of NBA MVP's. After a few years building the side back up to the level they should be at, they have started to hit their stride under coach Ben Howland.
The UCLA Bruins basketball and the program in general has been as big a success as it could have been when it was formed. Every team in the University's athletic division has played its part in making sure the Bruins stay at the top of the pile. A lot of effort has been put in to ensure the level of excellence continues and it shows. Fans, grab your UCLA Bruins tickets to watch the most ionic NCAA athletic team live.

This is to clarify a small misunderstanding: Anusha Rizvi
Guest post by ANUSHA RIZVI
Ms. Shiela Dixit, Chief Minister Delhi NCR
Mr. Sushil Kumar Shinde, Home Minister, India
Mr. Tejendar Khanna, Lt. Governor, Delhi NCR
This is to clarify a small misunderstanding. I know a part of the protests made you believe that women in Delhi are asking to take policemen away from their VIP duties and put them on Delhi streets. This is incorrect. Many of the protestors are too young to understand
Ma'am and Sirs, the roads are unsafe enough. All Delhi women know – when you see a Delhi policeman, you run. This is what our mothers taught us. This is what we teach our children. I sincerely request you to increase VIP duties for all cops in the Delhi National Capital Region. Please don't waste your time and energy transferring or suspending any of these gentlemen. All you have to do is ensure no cops are given non-VIP duties.
I also suggest that you open small Bribe Corners in all thanas across the Delhi NCR (from public money, of course). That way we can ensure that the policemen don't ever need to step out on Delhi roads. This will go a long way in ensuring safety and security of all individuals, by which I mean non-VIP individuals. However, do plan for parking space at the bribe corners; I anticipate huge traffic.
Adjacent to the Bribe Corner (BC), build the Evidence Room (ER). This will ensure a direct flow between BC and the investigative arm of the police. This will increase productivity and promote a standardised system of governance.
The government can save a lot of money in the cost of vehicles, petrol, transmitters, talkies, even shoes. I am sure your department can draw up a more exhaustive list. A small part of the money saved can go in ensuring the well-being of the police personnel. There can be libraries of films, magazines, violent and very violent video games (I strongly recommend 3D monitors). All parliamentarians should also be allowed the use of this space.
It's unfortunate that so many women, and in so many varied clothing, and so late at night are often out on Delhi streets. This definitely creates a law and order crisis. I sympathise. However, their numbers are large. And the chances are that they also vote. I think it will take a lot more effort to revoke universal adult franchise, than removing policemen from Delhi streets.
Finally, I want to make a small personal request. Please remove all women from the police force. I know this doesn't do much given their insignificant presence but it's aesthetically displeasing for me as a filmmaker. In doing so, you will be helping Indian cinema in its hundredth year.
I hope that you will consider these suggestions and act on them swiftly.
Yours Sincerely,
Anusha Rizvi
PS: Whatever you may choose to tell the nation, make sure you tell your grandchildren to run the moment they see a policeman coming to them.

And your hypocrisy.

1. I have nothing to do with Yo Yo Honey Singh, neither professonally nor at a personal level, so don't quite know how I was hypocritical in writing to Delhi Chief Minister?
2. If you mean that Honey Singh should not be allowed to perform or record these songs, I am completely with you on that.
3. Cinema is only 100 years old. Patriarchy is a lot older. And it is because of this that we produces the cinema we do, not the other way round. The moment we start to blame films as the reason for us being a patriarchal society, we are also convienetly shifting the blame from ourselves.
Doubting Thomas permalinkDecember 29, 2012 4:26 AM
I believe that women dressing fashionably, skimiply, flirting around openly, as shown in films is good because it teaches the non-alpha males among us that it's ok for women to do all those things.
But my pet peeve about films is that they dont show men respecting and loving women's choices of clothes. Instead, we have item numbers and dirty jokes. That is why the 60s and 70s films were so good – they had both men and women fully dressed and well-behaved towards each other.
If the film fraternity could agree to exclude item numbers (I know its not really possible) and to add a few lines that show the hero actually respecting his girlfriend and her choices, in every movie, rather than just respecting his devi-jaisi mother or protecting his pari-jaisi sister, it would be of great help.
If Bollywood really wants dirty street talk, you could *still* put repsect for women in dirty words:
For example, a young unemployed bum passes a remark:
"Woh maal dekh, usko dekh mereko garmi hoti hai."
The guy next to him can say: "Abe harami, poore din idhar garmi thandi karta rehta hai, woh udhar naukri karke paise kamake videsh chali jayegi, aur tera idhar sab jalke thanda pad gaya rahega."
Or "Tu Bheje se sochta hai ki neeche se?"
Or something like that.
I mean to say that even in dirty talk, which film makers seem to love nowadays, you can put sense and respect.
It's quite easy to put in a line or two of that type – you can build a standard "decent hooligan" character into most plots that have a hooligan character.
Also, India has enough generous script-writing talent to actually organise a scriptlet pool on some website or forum that movie makers can pick up stuff from. Basically just apply the wikipedia principle to film scripts – Promote the ones that depict respect for women as equals and delete the dirty / ugly ones – just like wikipedia. License everything on that site as public domain.
Newbie / wannabe scipt writers get to show off their skills and filmmakers get scriptlets with useful and meaningful themes.

While we are at it, we should start a campaign to write "Please dont rape me" on currency notes and give them as bribe to Delhi Cops. That will hopefully hit them someplace.

We propose the technique of Adaptive Allele Consolidation, that greatly improves the performance of the Lange-Goradia algorithm for genotype elimination in pedigrees, while still producing equivalent output. Genotype elimination consists in removing from a pedigree those genotypes that are impossible according to the Mendelian law of inheritance. This is used to find errors in genetic data and is useful as a preprocessing step in other analyses (such as linkage analysis or haplotype imputation). The problem of genotype elimination is intrinsically combinatorial, and Allele Consolidation is an existing technique where several alleles are replaced by a single "lumped" allele in order to reduce the number of combinations of genotypes that have to be considered, possibly at the expense of precision. In existing Allele Consolidation techniques, alleles are lumped once and for all before performing genotype elimination. The idea of Adaptive Allele Consolidation is to dynamically change the set of alleles that are lumped together during the execution of the Lange-Goradia algorithm, so that both high performance and precision are achieved. We have implemented the technique in a tool called Celer and evaluated it on a large set of scenarios, with good results.

DOHA: Some Woqod fuel stations have resumed selling lightweight Shafaf LPG cylinders, after getting a clearance from the Civil Defence Directorate, a company spokesman said yesterday.
Cylinders are expected to be available at all Woqod petrol stations by next week.
Woqod stopped selling Shafaf cylinders at its fuel stations about a month ago, following instructions from the directorate in the wake of the explosion at a restaurant within a petrol station premises near Landmark Mall in February.
Disruptions in supply had triggered complaints about a shortage of Shafaf cylinders in the market.
"Five of our petrol stations have started selling cylinders, after we got a letter from Civil Defence two days ago, giving permission to resume sales.
"Cylinders will be available at the remaining petrol stations in three to four days," he told this daily last evening.
Until 10pm yesterday, cylinders were not available at the two Woqod petrol stations in Abu Hamour and the one near the mall. He said Civil Defence had given clearance after it was convinced about safety of cylinders. "We explained to Civil Defence that we follow international standards (of safety)," he said.
He said Civil Defence had not imposed any new safety requirements, but the company had decided to move Shafaf racks further away from the filling machines, as an additional precaution.
A Woqod source had earlier said the Shafaf shortage was caused by a "distribution gap" after their sales were banned at fuel stations, where huge number of cylinders were being sold.
Shafaf cylinders are also distributed through more than 200 supermarkets across the country.
Although Civil Defence has relaxed rules for Shafaf cylinders, a ban on the use of gas cylinders and tanks by eateries at fuel stations exists.
Some eateries have closed after the ban, while others have switched over to alternative fuel like charcoal and electricity.

John F. Kennedy
John F. Kennedy: Presidential Campaign
Following JFK's failed attempt to win the vice presidential nomination in 1956, his political ambitions only heightened; during his next three years in the Senate, Jack spoke frequently with his family and advisers about a potential bid for the presidency in 1960. Thus it was hardly surprising when Jack formally announced his candidacy on 2 January 1960. Though Jack, Bobby, and Joe Sr. strongly believed that Jack could win, he was initially considered a long shot in a crowded field of Democratic competitors that included Adlai Stevenson, Hubert Humphrey, and Lyndon B. Johnson. Of particular concern was Jack's Catholicism. Time and again, Jack was told that America was a Protestant country unwilling to elect a Catholic to the highest office in the land. Though he was occasionally discouraged by those remarks, Kennedy campaigned with confidence, winning over voters across the country with his charm and easy nature.
Bobby reprised his role as Jack's campaign manager, running a primary campaign that focused on Jack's role as a congressman, war hero, accomplished author, and loving father (Jack's daughter, Caroline, had been born in 1957). At the Democratic Convention, as a result of his unrelenting campaigning in states like Wisconsin and West Virginia, JFK was successful in securing the nomination. He selected Lyndon B. Johnson, an experienced Southern Democrat and the Senate Majority Leader, as his vice presidential running mate. In his acceptance speech on 15 July, Kennedy delivered a message that would set the tone for the remainder of his presidential campaign: "We stand today on the edge of a New Frontier—the frontier of the 1960s—a frontier of unknown opportunities and perils—a frontier of unfulfilled hopes and threats."16
In the general election, Jack's Republican opponent was Richard Nixon, Dwight Eisenhower's vice president. In order to defeat Nixon, Kennedy had to convince the nation that he could go head-to-head with the experienced Republican on issues like national security and the economy and emerge victorious. Thus Kennedy proposed a series of televised debates between the two candidates; Nixon, an avid debater, accepted the offer. The first debate aired on 26 September 1960, and it was clear from the first minute that Nixon had made a mistake. Compared to Jack, who looked youthful and exuded a sense of leadership and health (though he was actually quite ill at the time), Nixon appeared sickly, callous, and altogether unexciting. Americans who listened to the debate on the radio thought Nixon had won, but those who watched on TV—where Kennedy's tanned and confident appearance contrasted starkly with a sweaty and pallid-looking Nixon—gave Kennedy a decisive edge. JFK's charisma and rhetoric captivated viewers across the country; for many Americans, 26 September marked the day when Kennedy transformed from a presidential hopeful to a veritable American icon. The televised debates not only constituted a turning point in Jack's campaign, but they also signaled a change in national politics as a whole.
With Bobby Kennedy ably directing his campaign once again, Jack presented a consistent message of American progress: the United States must expand its military might, the United States must increase its economic growth, and the United States must become a fully modernized country.17 All three of these imperatives were framed in the context of the Cold War battle between communism and democracy. On election day, Jack's strategy proved successful—though just barely. On 8 November 1960, Jack won the presidential election by a mere 118,000 votes, an incredibly small margin of victory for the general election. In his inaugural address on 20 January 1961, Kennedy delivered an impassioned speech that confirmed his status not only as a great orator but also as an iconic symbol of a new era in American life. With millions watching, Jack asserted the importance of tackling the nation's unique set of challenges with energy and fervor: "only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility—I welcome it."18 JFK's legendary address still stands as one of the greatest in American history; even Eisenhower's speechwriter noted that Kennedy "truly inspired the excitement of the people."19
Following the election, there was much speculation over Joe Sr.'s role in the campaign and whether Jack's win might have been secured by illegal means. Essential to Kennedy's victory was the state of Illinois, and in Chicago, Jack had won by a suspiciously large margin (456,312 votes), considering his performance in the national election. Although two grand juries investigated the election in Chicago, no serious charges were ever pressed, and Nixon did not pursue a recount. Jack's victory was safe. However, more recent evidence suggests that Joe Sr. played a major role in the "stolen" election in Illinois, using his ties to the mafia and the Chicago political machine to ensure union votes, collect campaign funds from corrupt organizations, and guarantee a Kennedy landslide by any means necessary.20

Mark Obenshain has requested a recount in the Virginia Attorney General's race.
The legal team representing the Republican candidate filed the petition in Richmond Wednesday morning.
Democrat Mark Herring led Obenshain by just 165 votes after the State Board of Elections certified the results earlier this week, so it won't take a major shift to change the outcome of the election.
"The recount process in this case is different from what it has ever been before in the Commonwealth," said attorney Stephen Piepgrass, a member of Obenshain's legal team.
Changes since the last statewide recount in 2005 will require election officials to run more than 700,000 paper ballots through optical scanning machines.
And while the candidate who leads before a recount usually wins, Hollins University Political Science Professor Ed Lynch says the margin in this race is so slim anything could happen.
"And I think it could go either way," Lynch told WDBJ7, "and if Obenshain should come out ahead, and should he pull this race out, I think it might even be by a smaller margin than Herring is leading now."
No date has been set, but Obenshain's attorneys expect a mid-December recount that will take 2 to 3 days.
The campaign of Republican Mark Obenshain says the candidate will formally request a recount Wednesday morning.
Obenshain trails Democrat Mark Herring by 165 votes in the results the State Board of Elections certified on Monday. More than 2 million Virginians voted in the election.
Both men have appointed transition teams, and are now preparing to take office in January.
Tuesday afternoon, Herring issued the following statement:
"It is within Senator Obenshain's right to pursue electoral victory to an ultimate conclusion beyond the original count, canvass and certification. His tactics, however, will not impede our efforts to build the finest team to serve all Virginians in the Office of Attorney General or prepare for the 2014 legislative session."

Morning Skate Report: Flames at Lightning
News and notes from the Flames morning skate in Tampa Bay
Thursday, 04.3.2014 / 6:37 AM MT / News
By Jason Johnson - CalgaryFlames.com (@jay__jo)
With Defenceman Tyler Wotherspoon about to undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, the Flames recalled a pair of blueliners in Chris Breen and Mark Cundari from the American Hockey League.
Cundari was sent to the Chicago Wolves this season as an American League deal, so the Flames still maintain his rights. The 23-year-old split the season between Chicago and the Abbotsford Heat, combining for nine goals and 14 assists for 23 points and 73 penalty minutes in 54 games.
He made an impressive debut with the Calgary Flames last season, netting his first career goal. The rearguard also added a pair of assists for three points in his three-game stint with Calgary.
Bob Hartley believes strongly that exposing a young player to the NHL is something that can pay off in the future.
"I'm a believer that every kid should get a taste of the NHL," Hartley said following the Flames morning skate in Tampa Bay. "What we did with Hanowski and what we're doing with Agostino and Van Brabant—it's huge. Ben Hanowski was very open with us [after the season]. He said he would have never been prepared for training camp if I hadn't have seen [the NHL]. There's a huge difference between major junior and college and the NHL."
Breen will suit up tonight against the Lightning and then Hartley will play it by ear as far as Cundari seeing any action.
"We'll look at Breen's game tonight and then we'll see about Cundari," Hartley said.
Matt Stajan and Paul Byron have both left the team for personal reasons.
Byron and his wife are expecting the birth of their second child and due to the risk of possible flight complications to Calgary from the southern USA, Hartley said it was easier for Byron to skip the last part of the road trip so he could be with his wife.
"[Byron's] wife was going to the doctor for the past couple of days, everything is good," Hartley said. "Obviously it's getting close and that it was a plan of ours that once we came down south, flights to Calgary sometimes aren't that easy.
"We're trying to do the right things on and off the ice for our players and their families."
Stajan has also returned to Calgary to be with his wife as the couple are still dealing with their family tragedy last month. Hartley admitted Stajan's leave was planned all along.
"For Matt, it was all planned before," Hartley said. "It shows the organizational comment for the player's families. I don't think from an organizational standpoint we're doing anything spectacular, we're just doing the right thing."
With the absence of Byron, Stajan and Wotherspoon, the Flames will insert Ben Hanowski, TJ Galiardi and Breen into the lineup.
Kari Ramo will get his 36th start of the season tonight in Tampa Bay. Joey MacDonald will be given the nod tomorrow when the Flames face the Panthers.
Bryce Van Brabant will play in his second NHL game tonight.
The 22-year-old made his debut Tuesday in Calgary's 3-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. He registered 5:36 of ice time and took a minor penalty for high-sticking.
But more importantly, Hartley liked the aggression Van Brabant showed in Tuesday's debut.
"It's one game and I plan to play him [more]," Hartley said. "I like his grit and he seems to be involved in the play and he seems to be fearless. It's tough to put a gauge on those kids. It's a little unfair for the young man. Everything is thrown at him so quickly."
He was definitely nervous in Toronto, but Van Brabant said his outing in the NCAA Frozen Four final last spring still takes the cake.
"I tried to be very aggressive, be the first one in the pile and from there, make some plays," he said. "It was nothing too hard, but I guess some guys don't like to do it so I go out there and try to do as much as I can.
"I was actually pretty calm at the time. I wasn't worried about being too intense out there. Last year [in Quinnipiac, we had a national championship game and it was a lot more nerve racking I think, for me anyway—it's one game, do or die. I was just trying to enjoy it as much as I could."
The Morinville, AB native stressed his play without the puck is what he needs to be focused on and admitted he made a few mistakes in against the Leafs.
"If you don't have the puck that's where mistakes happen," he said. "When you have the puck it's easy, you're not trying to get it. I made a few mistakes that way. It's just the systems and getting to learn them. Once I figure it out it will be easy and I'll be able to make some plays."
"We've made a commitment, every game down the road and right until the final game in Vancouver, we're playing to win. It's not because we have some new players that suddenly the expectations are not the same. We're going to have our foot down to the floor until the final second of the season. That's what we want to teach. That's the culture and the identity on this team."
- Bob Hartley on his philosophy in the final stretch.
Mike Cammalleri is 3 points from 500.
Kris Russell is 7 assists from 100.
Mark Giordano is 5 points away from 200.
All-time vs. the Lightning: 12-11-1-3

Colm O'Neill shook off his injury heartache to inspire Cork to the head of the Allianz League Division 1 with a 1-17 to 0-18 win over title holders Dublin.
An early 1-3 burst from John Hayes put the Rebels ahead as they clung on for a morale boosting win at Croke Park.
But the man who ultimately separated the sides in front of 19,626 crowd was O'Neill whose two late points proved crucial.
The 2012 All-Star missed last year with cruciate ligament trouble but needed just 20 minutes to make his mark.
His first score broke an 18-minute barren streak for the Rebels, while his brilliant 70th minute solo run and point proved to be the insurance score.
The result leaves Cork top of Division 1 with six points from six despite a spate of winter retirements.
It was impressive stuff from Brian Cuthbert's side who appeared to be in danger of a heavy defeat early on.
Cormac Costello started brightly for Dublin and kicked three points in the first seven minutes. Jim Gavin's side soon moved 0-7 to 0-3 clear and looked well capable of stretching the gap.
But Cork took advantage of Daniel Goulding's free-taking prowess to close the deficit. Goulding booted over four points in a row, all from placed balls, to tie it up - and his excellence seem to inspire those around him.
Brian Hurley and Paul Kerrigan wove some impressive attacks as Cork began to dominate and the Rebels soon netted a goal, Hayes scoring it in the 29th minute with a stunner after smart work by Mark Collins and John O'Rourke.
That goal put the visitors three clear and they were deserved 1-11 to 0-12 leaders at half-time.
Dublin clearly missed Paul Flynn, who pulled out beforehand, and Gavin also switched Cian O'Sullivan to centre-back and James McCarthy to midfield.
The Dubs looked vulnerable in defence at times, particularly under the high ball.
Rookie full-back Sean George paid the price for a poor start on Hayes and was subbed after 25 minutes.
Former minor star Eric Lowndes also made way at half-time.
The second-half was more cagey and tactical. Hayes was subdued by Dubs defender Jonny Cooper and replaced while O'Sullivan got to grips with Goulding.
Costello hit his fourth point after the restart to leave just one in it, but it wasn't until 10 minutes from time that Dublin drew level.
The All-Ireland and League champions shot four points in a row to set up a thrilling finale at 0-17 to 1-14.
The sides were level again before substitute Donal Og Hodnett put Cork ahead.
O'Neill's 70th minute score was the insurance score and worthy of settling the contest as he soloed in from the right wing and slotted between the posts from a tight angle.
Cork: K O'Halloran, C Dorman, E Cadogan, N Galvin, J Loughrey, A Cronin, T Clancy (Fermoy), A Walsh, F Goold (0-01), J O'Rourke, P Kerrigan (0-01), M Collins, D Goulding (0-07, 7f), B Hurley (0-01), J Hayes (1-03).
Substitutes: D Og Hodnett (0-02) for Galvin, C O'Neill (0-02) for Hayes, R Deane for Walsh, A O'Sullivan for Goold, C O'Driscoll for Hurley, K O'Driscoll for Loughrey.
Dublin: S Cluxton (0-03, 3f), S George, P McMahon, M Fitzsimons, E Lowndes, C O'Sullivan, J Cooper, J McCarthy (0-01), MD Macauley, D Byrne, C Reddin (0-02), B Cullen, K McManamon (0-03), C Kilkenny (0-03, 1f), C Costello (0-04, 1f).
Substitutes: D Nelson for Lowndes, E O'Gara for Byrne, P Hudson (0-01) for Costello, S Carthy (0-01) for Reddin.
Referee: P Hughes (Armagh).

Fun survey from LastMinute.com in the PR box today. They surveyed us Paddys on their website. Bloody hell, I'm shocked at some results.
- 9% of those asked "Did you ever hook up with someone on a social media website such as Facebook?" answered yes.
- One in 3 have cheated on a trip abroad
- One in 5 have had a secret hotel rendezvous
- Six in 10 have had a holiday romance
- 85% believe in monogamy in marriage
- 38% have engaged in sexting
- 70% of 18-25 year olds are sexting on the sly with someone they're not married/partnered with
That 9% one has to be much higher than that or maybe we use Twitter now?
2500 people have subscribed to my website instead of coming back each day. You can subscribe to the site using a feedreader or email. I'm also on Twitter. My online marketing blog might also be worth a visit. Thanks for visiting - Damien.

by Tom Stoppard
The Couch of Eros
Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory
Ezra Chater's opus is by all accounts worse than the poetry we wrote in middle school and wish we could erase from the Internet's long memory. The exact content of his book matters less than 1) its mockable badness, which allows Septimus to exercise his wit in making fun of it, and 2) the things added to the book later: Chater's inscription and the two letters to Septimus. These three ephemeral (a fancy word that means things that usually get thrown in the trash) texts survive by a fluke of fate: Byron borrowed the book and neglected to return it, and it just so happens that circumstance led to circumstance and the book fell into Bernard's hands.
Does the element of chance matter? After all, the letters survived, didn't they? True. But Arcadia suggests that the fragility of paper is also the fragility of history: if this long sequence of events hadn't happened just so, Bernard & Co. would never have known that a guy named Ezra Chater ever existed, much less that he may or may not have fought a duel with Byron. Sticking these key plot points into letters in a book that no one had any particular interest in keeping makes us wonder how much hasn't survived – and how much we can trust the documents that have.

Q: I'm confused about when a person should start drug therapy to lower cholesterol. It used to be based on a number. What's the latest?
For years, doctors prescribed drugs to lower cholesterol based largely on blood test results. For most people, an LDL ("bad cholesterol") level of 130 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) of blood was enough to trigger concern. For people with coronary heart disease, the optimal LDL level was less than 70 mg/dL).
But recent guidelines on statin use proposed a major change to that strategy. The American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology issued the guidelines in 2013.
The new guidelines take away this...

What is psychodynamic therapy for depression?
Answer by:
WebMD Expert
Psychodynamic therapy is the kind of talk therapy many people imagine when they think of psychological treatment for depression. In psychodynamic therapy, the patient is encouraged to talk freely about whatever happens to be on his or her mind. As the patient does this, patterns of behavior and feelings that stem from past experiences and unrecognized feelings become apparent. The focus is put then on those patterns so that the patient can become more aware of how past experience and the unconscious mind are affecting his or her present life.
