Health Law Architect's Taped Remarks Fuel Subsidy Debate
Backers of the latest legal challenges to the Affordable Care Act are seizing on comments made in 2012 by an MIT economist, often referred to as the law's architect, to support their argument that only people who buy health coverage through a state exchange – not exchanges run by the federal government–can get tax credits towards the cost of premiums.
The Competitive Enterprise Institute, a libertarian think-tank that is funding many of the lawsuits, discovered a 52:30-minute video from January 2012 in which Jon Gruber, a key adviser for the 2006 Massachusetts health law and the 2010 federal health law, tells an audience that "if you're a state and you don't set up an exchange, that means your citizens don't get their tax credits."

Mr. Gruber, who was speaking at Noblis, a nonprofit research organization based in Falls Church, Va., continued: "I hope that's a blatant enough political reality that states will get their act together and realize there are billions of dollars at stake here in setting up these exchanges, and that they'll do it."
A second clip of a recording emerged Friday afternoon in which Mr. Gruber appeared to make similar remarks, also in January 2012, to another organization.
At the time the law was passed, legislators expected almost all states to build their own exchanges, rather than turning over the task to the federal government. The Internal Revenue Service determined in regulations that the tax credits should go to people in all 50 states.
Courts have reached conflicting opinions on whether the law means states would have to build and operate their own exchanges in order for residents to get federal tax credits to offset the cost of premiums. On Tuesday, a D.C. federal appeals court panel found the IRS rule had gone too far, and hours later, a federal appeals court in Richmond, Va., reached the opposite conclusion. (Click here for a profile of the low-key Greenville, S.C., lawyer who helped spark the cases.)
The comments in the video were made at the start of a long year in which the federal government tried hard to coax states to run their own exchanges. In the end, only 16 states opted to do so, and only 14 opened exchanges in October 2013.
Mr. Gruber told The New Republic's Jonathan Cohn that the remark "was just a mistake." He said in an email message Friday afternoon that his comments there reflected his response to the controversy. "I honestly don't remember why I said that," he told Mr. Cohn. "I was speaking off-the-cuff."
A wave of lawsuit supporters have described the video as the "smoking gun" that they believe will now help them prevail, although it will be up to judges to decide how relevant his comments are in the question of Congress's intent.
Tim Jost, a Washington and Lee University law professor and longtime backer of the health-care overhaul, said Friday afternoon that when Mr. Gruber made his remarks, it wasn't known whether the federal government had the ability to operate exchanges on behalf of the states. Mr. Jost said that by January 2012, the federal government had already proposed offering tax credits to people using the federally run exchanges and that Mr. Gruber would have known this.
"What I think he meant was that at that point in 2012 it wasn't clear whether the federal exchange would be up and running in 2014, so that if you as a state want to make sure that people in your state get premium tax credits, you'll be safer if you set up a state exchange," Mr. Jost said.

NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City public school teacher is being accused of having sex with a former student.
Police say Daniel Reilly was arrested Monday on charges of rape and endangering the welfare of a child — a 14-year-old girl.

Earnings Preview: JOY, LGF, PSX, TFM, CIEN
Published on Tuesday, 29 May 2012 18:56 Written by Todd Shriber
While the market remains locked in a cell that only Europe and its worsening sovereign debt crisis holds the key to, investors might be apt to forget that there are few companies left to report earnings this week. And while this week is short, some of the names slated to step into the earnings confessional are worthy of the "marquee" designation. With that, let's have a look at some of this week's most important earnings reports.
Joy Global (NYSE: JOY):
The mining equipment maker has seen its shares savagely beaten as risk on has turned to risk off. Shares of Joy Global have fallen 13% in the past month and are testing support at $60. Wisconsin-based Joy Global is expected to post a second-quarter profit of $1.95 a share up from $1.52 a share a year earlier. Second-quarter revenues are expected to total $1.4 billion, an almost 35% year-over-year increase, but the real story here will be guidance.
Any weakness on that front will surely give eager bears an excuse to punish this already vulnerable stock. Joy Global reports before the bell Thursday.
Lion Gate Entertainment (NYSE: LGF):
The studio behind The Hunger Games and Mad Men, has seen much of its pre-Hunger Games air come out of its shares as the stock is down about 20% since March. The company is expected to post a first-quarter profit of 26 cents per share on revenues of $627.7 million. That compares to 33 cents per share and $376.9 million in the same period of last year. The estimate has risen from 23 cents over the past two months. Lions Gate reports on Wednesday.
Phillips66 (NYSE: PSX):
In its first reported quarter since being spun-off by ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) refiner Phillips66 has said it's looking to move away from the gasoline business due to slack demand. The company said its refining business is third in the U.S. behind Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) and Marathon Petroleum (NYSE: MPC) in terms of return on capital employed. The company, already a member of the S&P 500 is expected to show a quarterly profit of $1.01 per share.
The Fresh Market (NASDAQ: TFM):
Fresh Market reports Wednesday before the bell and analysts are looking for a profit of $1.30 per share, a rise of 21.5% from a year earlier. Revenue is expected to jump 17.3% to $310.3 million. Fresh Market has reported double-digit revenue increases in four consecutive quarters.
Ciena (NASDAQ: CIEN):
Ciena reports Thursday and analysts are expecting a loss of 33 cents per share on revenue of $447.4 million, a 7% increase from a year earlier. In its fiscal first quarter, Ciena narrowed its loss, but revenue fell and the numbers missed analysts' estimates.

Good day!
Well, I was wiring up a supplemental brake system to make our Odyssey
towable behind our motorhome and in doing so was messing with a few fuses
trying to find the right place to tap in the electrical. My wife just
called in a panic because the "check engine" light is on. I am confident
that it is simply a side effect of me messing around. Is there a simple way
to reset the thing? Perhaps just disconnecting the battery for a bit? I am
not worried about there being a real problem - if there is I am sure the
light will come back on again but would like to reset it without a trip to
the dealer.
Thanks for the help!

Slovenia Slaps YLE Journalist with Slander Suit
The Slovenian state prosecutor has filed a defamation suit against Magnus Berglund, a journalist at YLE's television programme MOT. The charges are linked to an aired MOT story about a suspected bribery case involving defence materiel manufacturer Patria and top Slovenian officials.
The Slovenian prosecution filed two defamation charges against Magnus Berglund at the beginning of June. The charges carry a possible prison sentence of up to six months or fines.
Berglund says he isn't surprised by the charges. He, however, says he plans to avoid travelling to Slovenia anytime soon.
"They would probably arrest me as soon as I set foot in the country. Fortunately, Finland doesn't plan to send me there for questioning," Berglund says.
Berglund as well as MOT's producer Matti Virtanen say they continue to stand by the work done on the report.
Defence Equipment Deal Sparked Controversy
Last autumn, MOT claimed that defence material manufacturer Patria bribed Slovenian officials, including then Prime Minister Janez Jansa, to the tune of 21 million euros in order to secure orders worth millions of euros. Jansa has denied any wrongdoing in the deal.
In 2006 Patria and Slovenia signed a deal for 135 transport vehicles that was valued around 280 million euros.
Finnish police have followed leads in the case to Slovenia as well as Austria.

KINGSTON — Stan Zaborski collects more stuff in a year than most people do in a lifetime.
Zaborski and longtime partner Sandy Balla have so much stuff, they've filled an old factory to the rafters — while two tractor-trailers full of items in the locking dock haven't even been touched since 2007.
"I try to restrain myself," Balla teases, "but Stan doesn't understand the meaning of the word moderation."
Zaborski can't be blamed though. It's in his blood.
His father set up the original sidewalk antique stand along Albany Avenue in 1964.
After returning from the Coast Guard around 1976, Zaborski started selling furniture and collectables to hippies at Bard College.
He and Balla spent $105,000 in October 1997 to move into a vacant 33,321-square-foot factory along Hoffman Street, according to city records.
Their store now offers the most architectural salvage this side of New Bedford, Mass.
Customers can look at 2,000 doors, hundreds of toilets and sinks and dozens of vintage metal covers and frying pans. It's like Home Depot or Lowe's, but for people seeking to restore historic properties from the 1870s, 1920s or 1960s.
Zaborski Emporium has two full-time employees and does its best business in the winter, when it doesn't have to compete against scores of yard sales. The store gets about 20 customers per day while it's cold.
"We always pay our bills," Balla said, "but we've never been rich."
The store has brought the Kingston couple notoriety.
The Emporium shipped 250 two-prong outlets and old barn supplies such as gas cans and ropes to Australia for the 2006 filming of "Charlotte's Web."
And film crews swarmed the Emporium while a family looked for vintage items to redo a Linderman Avenue room in a January 2006 episode of the TV show "Trading Spaces."
Uptown restaurants such as Boitson's, Elephant and the Stockade Tavern also rely on Emporium lights and fixtures to maintain a distinctive look.
Most customers, though, are far less notable.
They're typically looking for items like bathtubs, bluestone or radiators, Balla said.
Father time has caught up with Zaborski, who can no longer move with ease. He'd like to turn the Emporium over in the next several years to his son Steven, who already works at the store. And with multiple grandchildren already around, Zaborski expects the family tradition to survive.
"If you like what you're doing," Zaborski said, "you're made in life."

I was going to write about wanting to give my daughter a real pony (because she wants one, and she is my favorite child at this moment).
But this caught my eye this morning instead.
Why does anyone else think they get to weigh in on how this man should be spending his money?
It's always like this in Toledo, Ohio. And maybe it's like this other places as well. Everyone thinks they have a financial say in what others are doing. No one can ever just be truly happy for someone. When something totally awesome happens, we find the negative in it.
During the election, I had a girlfriend, who I considered a friend, tell me that the CEO at my company was just getting rich off the backs of his middle class employees. My brain broke. Are you kidding me? He is a good and honest man. He would literally give an employee the shirt off his back, and all of us who know him, know this to be true because we have seen it first hand. We also know the struggle he's been through and how he worked so hard to pull us out of it over the past few years. Toledo, Ohio has struggled!
I haven't spoke a word to that woman since, and I probably never will again (because Scorpios are like that).
Is it Seasonal Affective Disorder?
Or are we just a bunch of assholes these days?
Probably assholes.
I hope this attorney wins.
I tried out for the show, and the test was very difficult. Even if you scored a perfect score, you still had to meet with the producers and be chosen based on your personality. This means this man is smart and charismatic at the same time.
I wish him all the luck in the world. And if he chooses to spend his million on a rare baseball card collection, I could really give a shit (although I hope he stops by the dealership to spend his money on a new Denali). I'm just happy he made it. I'm happy he made it because he is from this area and something great has happened to someone from this area.
That's how we are supposed to be towards our hometown homies. Duh.

Obama Places Round of Calls to Shore Up Support on Ukraine
President Barack Obama placed calls to leaders in Germany, the United Kingdom and Australia on Friday afternoon to discuss the downing of a Malaysia Airlines flight, rallying support for an international investigation of the crash site and laying groundwork for potential new sanctions.
Earlier in the day, Mr. Obama blamed Russia for the plane's crash and said the incident should serve as a wake-up call for Europe and the world.
The president spoke with fellow leaders one day after the downing of the civilian aircraft near the Ukraine-Russia border. The plane, which originated in Amsterdam, was carrying 283 passengers and 15 crew members. Mr. Obama said the missile that shot down the plane likely originated in territory controlled by Russia-backed separatists.
The White House in readouts of separate calls with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron and Australia Prime Minister Tony Abbott said the leaders agreed on the importance of a thorough and credible international investigation.
Mr. Obama also discussed the latest sanctions against Russia and the potential for additional steps, the White House said. Mr. Cameron and Mr. Obama "reiterated the need to take further action if Russia continues to fail to" take steps to de-escalate the conflict in Ukraine.
Mr. Obama and Mrs. Merkel "reaffirmed their determination to remain in close contact as they consider what additional actions may be required," the White House said. The two also agreed that Russia must deny separatists access to heavy weapons and other support, the White House said.

Wings Open Floodgates on Coyotes
Thursday, 12.8.2011 / 10:52 PM ET
By Bill Roose - DetroitRedWings.com / The Wheel Deal
|Pavel Datsyuk had two assists before he left the game Thursday with a lower-body injury. (Photo by Greg Shamus)
"I think that was one of better periods we played in a long time," said Todd Bertuzzi, who got the scoring started with his second goal of the season. "I think we were on them, made some great plays and scored a lot of goals."
It was the Wings' first five-goal opening period outburst since they jumped on the Edmonton Oilers at Joe Louis Arena on Feb. 7, 2009. Detroit won that game, 8-3.
Besides Bertuzzi, the Wings got first-period goals by Valtteri Filppula, Tomas Holmstrom, Darren Helm and Jiri Hudler.
The win snapped a two-game losing streak for the Wings, owners of the league's best home record at 11-2-1 this season.
"It's a good win for our team and a good bounce back," Wings coach Mike Babcock said. "Anytime you lose two in a row you want to bounce back right away. I thought our big players were really skating.''
Wings center Pavel Datsyuk left the game early with a lower-body injury and did not return.
"He left early, we knew he was a bit sore going into the game, didn't get sore or anything like that," Babcock said. "He'll be fine. We'll probably give him tomorrow off and go from there."

North Carolina officials say technology company Cisco Systems Inc. is expanding its workforce in Research Triangle Park and will add 550 jobs before 2018.
Gov. Pat McCrory's office said Friday Cisco plans to hire finance, operations and advanced network services workers at an average salary of nearly $73,000 a year plus benefits. The average wage in Wake County is nearly $50,000 a year.
Cisco could get nearly $13 million from the state over 12 years if it reaches job-creation and other targets. State officials did not immediately return messages seeking information on how much in additional state and local incentives were offered to the maker of equipment that connects to the Internet.
Cisco employs more than 4,600 employees across North Carolina and more than 74,000 worldwide.

Self-esteem is the basis of any democracy.
Gloria Steinem (1934 -)
Contributed by: Zaady
There is a naive belief that injustice only had to be pointed out in order to be cured.
Logic is in the eye of the logician.
However sugarcoated and ambiguous, every form of authoritarianism must start with a belief in some group's greater right to power, whether that right is justified by sex, race, class, religion, or all four. However far it may expand, the progression inevitably rests on unequal power and airtight roles within the family.

By Bink Grimes, Texas WF360 Migration Editor
The Thursday Outdoors section of the Houston Chronicle, a barometer for many coastal hunters and fishers, painted a bleak picture for opening day teal prospects. Severe drought, decreasing rice acreage and no available "duck water" as a result of the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA)degrees, not to mention few signs of blue-winged teal anywhere in Texas, didn't bode well for Lone Star waterfowlers.
What a difference a day makes.
Light north winds Friday sparked something in these majestic acrobats to catch the red-eye from the north, cross the Red River, and arrive just in time for opening day. "These birds literally got here overnight," said veteran waterfowl outfitter Bill Sherrill of Wharton. "Just shows you how cool teal are." Sherrill normally relies on LCRA water to pump 30-40 ponds on the Pierce Ranch and prairie ponds near Hungerford, but with water restrictions, he was forced to fork over five times the normal price tag on water to pump from ground wells running on diesel. "What are you going to do?" he asked. "You have to have water for the birds. Sure, it hurts to spend that kind of money, but the birds need it." Sherrill, along with the dwindling number of other outfitters in the area who could afford the water, were rewarded for their efforts.
"There were some guides who never saw a teal when they scouted Friday," said Mike Grigar, owner of Johnny's Sport Shop in Eagle Lake. "Those same guides came in my store after the hunt and said they shots limits."
Solid hunts were posted in the marsh east of Houston near Anahuac and Winnie, while Jefferson and Orange county hunters saw steady action in the marsh surrounding Sabine Lake. Most teal in the North Zone are holding in wet rice fields, just north of the dividing zone line of IH-10.
Northeast Texas hunters saw birds holding on shallow flats or reservoirs, but most hunters in this part of Texas do not get too excited about teal hunting since the birds are here today and gone tomorrow en route to the coast.
"A day before the opener there were more teal on Toledo Bend reservoir than most locals had ever seen," said avid waterfowler Chuck Uzzle of Orange. "We felt pretty good knowing they would probably show up in our marsh the next morning, especially with a north wind blowing all day."
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department estimates about 30,000 hunters participate in the 16-day season, and with an increase in the daily bag limit to six, shotgunners are jazzed at the possibilities.
"Inland, on the rice prairies, it is pretty dry," said Dr. Todd Merendino, DU's manager of conservation programs in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. "There's not much water on the ground other than second-cropped rice, and there's not much of that. I would say the marshes are in pretty good shape."
Typically, the blue-winged teal migration occurs in three stages. First, are the adult drakes, which normally fill the bag on opening day. Then, depending on moon phases and cold fronts, hens that did not raise a brood along with straggling drakes arrive. Finally, hens with their young-of-the-year, first-time flyers arrive last. Most bluewings are in drab plumage, but hens and drakes can be distinguished by their chevrons (wingpatches). Males have a solid white chevron while females have broken blotches of brown that breaks up the white on the wing.
Unofficial observations from hunters across the coast indicated about 80 percent drakes in the opening day bag, giving rise to the notion there are more birds to come.
The Texas teal season ends at sunset Sept. 29.

Last October, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's (ODFW) Willamette Valley Wildlife Mitigation Program approved Ducks Unlimited's proposal to protect and restore a 90-acre parcel of floodplain habitat along the Yamhill River near Amity, Oregon. The property is currently in agricultural production and has potential to provide important wetland, riparian, and oak woodland habitats that benefit waterfowl and many other wildlife species.
The South Yamhill Floodplain Project will protect the property with a conservation easement held by DU, and restore of a variety of important native habitats that are a priority in ODFW's Oregon Conservation Strategy. DU will restore 33 acres of seasonal emergent wetlands, 16 acres of forested wetlands, and six acres of oak savanna.
In 2010, the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) and the state of Oregon signed an agreement that guarantees $117 million for fish and wildlife habitat conservation and restoration, protecting at least 16,880 acres of native habitats to settle mitigation obligations from hydroelectric dams in the Willamette Basin. This is a relatively new program, and DU envisions this project as the beginning of a productive partnership with ODFW, BPA, tribal interests, and others to conserve wetlands and a variety of other native habitats. This project will also benefit steelhead by removing a fish barrier and opening up 1,300 feet of off-channel habitat while conserving the stream flow of the Yamhill River. —Tom Dwyer

I have always been a fan of AA Milne's charming and whimsical stories since an early age. The 1977 movie The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh epitomised the childhood innocence that made the stories so wonderful, as did the TV series The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. I also liked a vast majority of the various film and TV incarnations that were made between then and now. Ever since hearing of this movie I knew I wanted to see it. Part of me knew it would work, and for me when I saw it last night it did. My only complaint of Winnie the Pooh is the length, at barely an hour(exluding the credits and the short) the film is too short. Otherwise it is a wonderful movie that like the 1977 movie and TV series captures perfectly the childhood innocence that I know and love. Not only that, it is also a welcome return to the traditional animation style as seen with the original movie. Speaking of the animation it is great. I always felt The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh along with The Rescuers was the best looking of the 1970s Disney movies, it had an elegant and warm feeling to it. Winnie the Pooh maintains that elegant and warm feeling with colourful backgrounds, cutely drawn characters and ravishing colours. The songs and music heard in the movie aren't quite classic status perhaps, but they are very memorable in the melodies and sweet in the lyrics. The dialogue is delightfully droll, with a lot for children and adults to enjoy. The story is structurally thin somewhat, but it is never dull thanks to the bright and breezy pace and the familiar yet absolutely delightful story lines including Pooh hunting for honey, Eeyore hunting for his tail and the search for the creature that Owl thinks has carried off Christopher Robin. The characters are engaging and wonderfully whimsical, Pooh is still endearing, Tigger is very funny and Piglet is cute. The voice acting is terrific really. These are not the original voice actors, and most of the voice actors(excepting Jim Cummings) in the likes of Tigger Movie, Pooh's Heffalump Movie and Piglet's Big Movie don't return, but the new voice actors do make an effort to not sound too different. Jim Cummings still does a wonderful job as Pooh and Tigger, and John Cleese for me is the most thoughtful narrator of any Winnie the Pooh film since Sebastian Cabot. I wasn't so sure though about Tom Kenny at first as Rabbit, but he being a very talented voice actor is also good. Overall, delightful, charming and a lovely nostalgic trip down memory lane, if only it wasn't so short.

It may be subtle, but it's the kind of thing that reduces the overall apparent quality of your work, the stuff that marks out your work as being standard (read: mediocre) or exceptional. If you feel you shouldn't get precious about such things, perhaps graphic design isn't your thing.

Food Network show featuring Tryon BBQ fest to air Sept. 1
Published: Tuesday, July 29, 2014 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 28, 2014 at 4:16 p.m.
The Food Network's new show "Eating America with Anthony Anderson" premiered at 9 p.m. Monday, and an episode featuring the local Blue Ridge BBQ Festival and State Championships is scheduled to air Sept. 1.
The show, unofficially called "Food Fest Nation" in previous reports, follows Anderson as he visits food festivals across the country, partaking in local food and culture. Monday's premiere took Anderson to the World Championship Steak Cook-off in Magnolia, Ark., and his trip to Tryon will be part of the Sept. 1 episode, "BBQ Festival."
In June, film crews from the show visited the Flat Rock Wood Room, where owners Wayne and Kim Blessing were gearing up for the Blue Ridge BBQ Festival. They have been competing in barbecue contests for eight years under the team name "Midnight Burn," and were just a couple of the local entrants who made it out to Tryon last month.
Whether or not the scenes filmed at the Flat Rock Wood Room will make it into the "BBQ Festival" episode remain to be seen, said a Food Network spokesperson, since the network usually doesn't see the final version of an episode until the day it's aired.
According to the episode's description, Anderson will be shown tasting elk burgers, deep-fried pickles and Asado goat at the Blue Ridge BBQ Festival, where he also meets rival chefs.

BALTIMORE – US Lacrosse announced today that it has established a multi-year partnership agreement with The University Club of Washington to sponsor the annual Tewaaraton Award and Annual Native American High School Player of the Year Scholarship. US Lacrosse will join the Mohawk Nation Council of Elders in its endorsement of the annual Tewaaraton Award, which honors the nation's top male and female collegiate lacrosse player for extraordinary achievements on the field.
The US Lacrosse Annual Native American High School Player of the Year Scholarship will be awarded to one male and one female each year. The scholarship honors high school students of Native American descent who exemplify high character, leadership, and academics both on and off the lacrosse field.

US Lacrosse kicks off its inaugural year as an official Tewaaraton Award partner as the presenting sponsor of the 2011 Tewaaraton Award ceremony. In addition to its endorsement and multi-year sponsorship of the Native American High School Player of the Year Scholarship, US Lacrosse will work with the University Club and its management partner, The Greater Washington Sports Alliance, to promote the award process and expand participation in the annual ceremony.
The University Club created the Tewaaraton Award 11 years ago. The lacrosse community recognizes the award as the premier individual honor award in the sport.
"We've always been proud of the endorsement received by the Mohawk Nation Council of Elders, which symbolizes our connection to the Native Era," said Jeff Harvey, Chairman of the Tewaaraton Award Committee at the University Club of Washington. "And this year we're proud to announce this new endorsement and relationship with US Lacrosse, the modern games national governing body. These two endorsements provide important validation for the award and all it stands for. We thank US Lacrosse for this recognition and look forward to this partnership."

How to Start a Running Routine
By The FIRM Master Instructor Annie Lee
Once fitting in a workout has become second nature to you, it's sort of like brushing your teeth. You know you need it, you do it, and you feel better when it's done. However, you may be in a place where you want to try something new.
So how about running? The wind in your hair, your heart pumping, the swiftness in your feet, time to focus solely on yourself, the positive energy you get being outdoors …
But how do you go from walking to jogging to running? How do runners become runners? Those are all questions I asked myself when I began. I had to run in high school P.E., and I would definitely run if someone were chasing me. But how did I learn to run to lose a few extra pounds, and more significantly, for the pure joy of it?
I began my running journey my sophomore year of college. Fellow Master Instructor and friend, Alison Davis-McLain, found a little article in a fitness magazine with a chart of how to add running into your fitness routine. At that time, we were going to The FIRM classes on a regular basis, four to five times a week. We were definitely addicted, and we coordinated this "how to start running" chart with The FIRM class schedule. Using that plan — and each other for support — helped us to evolve into runners.
Running plan: Follow this intensity chart
You can do the same thing with my "FIRM to run" chart, which incorporates the Borg scale of perceived exertion, a handy guideline for gauging intensity. You will also need a stopwatch and a safe area to walk/run.
The Borg scale of perceived exertion (RPE)
6 No exertion at all
7 Extremely light
9 Very light
11 Light
13 Somewhat hard
15 Hard
17 Very hard
19 Extremely hard
20 Maximal exertion
Weeks 1 through 3
- Warm up for 10 minutes. This should be at a walking pace: RPE 9-11. Get the heart pumping, warm your muscles and lubricate your joints, and prepare mentally for picking up the pace.
- For 30 seconds, kick up the speed to a jog: RPE 13-15. Your breathing should be labored and your heart rate increased.
- Reduce your speed back to brisk walking for 60 seconds: RPE 11-12. (Not at your warm up pace, slightly faster). This is time to catch your breath.
- Continue this cycle until you reach a total of 20-30 minutes. A duration of 20 minutes will comprise about 13 cycles of 30 seconds run/60 seconds walk. And 30 minutes would be 20 cycles of 30 seconds run/ 60 seconds walk.
- After completing your intervals of walk/run, cool down by walking for about 5-10 minutes. End with a final stretch for your lower body muscles.
As you become more advanced and your stamina and endurance increases, you should increase the time that you are running interval by 15 seconds.
Weeks 3 through 4
Follow the same basic routine as weeks one through three, but run for 45 seconds and walk for 60 seconds.
Weeks 5 through 6
Increase your running time to 60 seconds continuing your intervals of walking for 60 seconds. Continue this way until you can remove the walking intervals completely.
Cross-training: Add running to your workout routine
It is very important that you cross-train when you run. Walking and running only work the muscles that help us move in a forward direction. However, our body moves in multiple directions, so we have to do other activities to keep our bodies strong, fit and injury-free.
There are a few options when scheduling your exercise routine, depending on your fitness level and how long you have been doing The FIRM:
- If you are a beginner, complete two to three FIRM workouts per week and add two to three sessions of the walk/run program.
- If you are at an intermediate level, complete three to four FIRM workouts and add the walk/run program three to four times a week. (You would exercise every day.)
- If you are an advanced exerciser, try to FIRM four to five times a week and add the walk/run program three to four times a week. You can do this by separating your exercise sessions: FIRM in the morning and walk/run in the afternoon (or vice versa). I recommend completing the "two-a-days" (two exercise sessions in one day) only two to three times a week to prevent burning out and fatigue.
This is how I started running for the pure joy of it. The plan is completely adjustable to fit your needs. When you're just starting out, it's no cake-walk, but as long as you keep at it and stay consistent, you'll become "a runner." Hey, you never know, you might even end up training for a marathon!
The FIRM Master Instructor Team blog is shared courtesy of The FIRM Believers Club, an online community that helps you reach your fitness goals. With maximum-efficiency home workouts, support and motivation from The FIRM Master Instructors, daily tips, personalized workout rotation calendars, and access to other members through discussion boards, The FIRM Believers Club provides all the tools you need to get in the shape you want.

Old Spice, noteworthy for its odd commercials (particularly those featuring Terry Crews), has rolled out a new ad campaign, this one with a man who isn't quite human. The Mandroid, as he calls himself, is as much wires and hydraulics as he is artificial flesh, awkwardly finding himself in fortunate situations.
The Mandroid, if the themes continue, finds himself clumsily -- or by way of those pesky technological glitches -- coming across as less than charismatic in his efforts to find human-based love. Of course, it's the presence of Old Spice scent that saves the day.
The ads are unusual, with The Mandroid no doubt serving to take place of an awkward human male that just might, the company slyly suggests, get an edge from its products. Whether the unusual presence of a robotic man will translate into the same viral reality as some of its previous ads, however, is less certain.
The second ad, featured below, keeps up the shtick, tossing an unfortunate blue screen of death sort of malfunction into the mix that, predictably, only proves to the Mandroid's benefit.

Here's a picture of the beast.lol I built this float tank late 2009, and it served me well. I documented the whole build so I could help others build their own tank. If you're looking to build a custom tank this site will still help a lot!
If you're looking for the most affordable way to have your own float tank I would definitely recommend buying a Float Tent. These things are awesome! As a bonus they are also light and easy to ship so it doesn't matter where you are in the world.

She spends most of her time homeschooling her children and coordinating Joy El Generation's Barnabas mentoring program, though she occasionally writes for local and national publications. She and husband Aaron Ziebarth have three children.
People seemed to set up chairs for the Old Home Week parade extra-early this year. (See http://www.echo-pilot.com/article/20130723/blogs/130729940/-1/blogs01 for a back story on that comment.) I saw plenty being set up, starting at about 2 PM the day prior to the event. I heard from a friend today that she saw people setting them out at the beginning of the week!
So, once again, the Old Home Week parade was much anticipated and another great source of gathering with friends and family to celebrate our community.
Our neighborhood actually didn't seem as crowded this time around for the triennial parade. So, if you're looking for a spot next time, set up toward the end of the route.
Not being crowded worked fine for us. And enjoying a parade really has to do with what you make of it. Sure, the 2013 parade seemed dominated by fire trucks, classic cars and tractors (which are fun), more than the creative floats people often like to ooh and ahh over. But, like I said, it's in the attitude.
We had an enthusiastic bunch of college students watching from our sidewalk. They were Joy El (www.joyelcamps.org) staff members off for the evening. They were directly connected to several of my highlights from the evening. Here is one of those highlights, along with two others:
-When the swing dancing group worked its way up our street, Sarah from our staff group hopped up and hurried over to Josh (another staff member). "Josh, there are swing dancers coming! Can we join them?!" Josh reflected for a moment and said, "Sure." So Sarah and Josh walked into the street and began swing-dancing. Brooke and Monica followed suit, but found it difficult with two dancers taking the female part. They decided instead to wait patiently for their turn with Josh. One by one, they danced with Josh in the street, much to the amusement of onlookers. I said to more than one person that evening, "I bet seeing three pretty women vie for a chance to dance with Josh is making male onlookers seriously consider swing-dancing lessons!"
-We were all very impressed with GreencastleBaptistChurch's part in the parade. They had a very good turnout, and they were very well-prepared. A number of them walked along the sides of the streets handing out Freeze Pops. They'd rush back to the float to restock and then get back to work, making sure to get Freeze Pops to anyone who wanted them. As I held my cherry Freeze Pop I said to my friend Brandi, "Now I just need a knife." About 15 seconds later a young woman walked up to me with scissors. "Need any help with that?" she asked. Very impressive! (Visit http://www.greencastlebaptist.org/ to see a video they compiled of their parade experience.)
-The politicians. You know, as disillusioned as I can be about politics at times, it is nice to see politicians taking time for things like this parade. From our own Mayor Robert Eberly riding a classic car with his wife Darlene, to seeing US Rep. Bill Shuster (http://shuster.house.gov/) taking time to ride in our parade, we can be grateful. Three cheers for PA Rep. Todd Rock (http://www.reprock.com/) for beating the streets himself, handing out candy from a bucket along the entire parade route.
I hope you enjoyed the parade, and I hope you enjoy tonight's fireworks.

One of the more acceptable forms of spanking Dear Reader is the quick slap on the ass during sex. From experience I would highly recommend you know the girl well or at least get the go ahead since I indeed have made the mistake once of slapping a one night stand on the ass and her going absolutely batshit.
Now while this kind of spanking can be accomplished during most any position the best is of course doggy style. Oddly this position is males favorite and most female's least favorite fucking stance. Now there are all kinds of reasons for this of course more than what we can go into here.
In defense of the position from a spanko point of view, it gives one a lovely view of the bright red bottom that we were indeed spanking not so long ago. Plus it does give one the opportunity to massage it to get the sting to go away, or of course smack it.

Review quote
"I believe this book is the best introduction to information science available at present. It tackles both the philosophical basis and the most important branches, and it is based on solid knowledge about the contemporary literature of the field. If students have the knowledge provided by this introduction, this would be a fine basis on which to go further with specific problems." -- Birger Hjorland "I have no doubts that, for many years to come, this wonderful book will serve as one of the very best places for people to start to make a difference." -- Jonathan Furner "..an admirable and highly readable introductory source. Accessible, comprehensive, far-reaching and offering an impressive overview of the relevant literature, Introduction to Information Science is an excellent resource that will likely serve as the standard text for the foreseeable future." -- Partnership "This textbook presents a holistic view of information science in a context of modern technological impacts and global aspects of the changing information society. Therefore the whole work is intended not only for students and teachers of information science as a comprehensive study text, but it is also very instructive for professionals in information and knowledge management, librarianship; also for experts in the field of archives and museums, experts in the publishing industry, or professionals in information systems, especially those engaged with areas of scientific information and communication. In many ways, it is friendly and understandable for other readers who are interested in the information world, information society and information science. Both authors are long-time professionals and are well-known also from speaking activities, lectures, training and workshops around the world in information and library communities, and in the academic environment. Therefore the textbook is not only theoretical, but contains also many practical aspects of information science, and addresses many questions of professionals in practice. Particularly appreciated, in this respect, is the readability and legibility of the book, as well as its efficient graphical design. A conclusion? This beautiful book can go into the world and explain the best principles and roles of information science." -- Journal of Documentation "The authors' approach to the book is rooted in the literature. The many references to literature where the reader can find more information on concepts that require much more in-depth discussion bears proof of this approach. Furthermore, the authors are well aware that books can date rapidly. Although they have sought to give up-to-date information, they have principally focused on basic principles. Furthermore, they also emphasise concepts and theories that are useful for an understanding of the subject field and place them in an historical context. Each chapter concludes with a list of key readings and references that pertain to the specific chapter. The book is well written and easy to read. A very useful index concludes the volume. Scholars and academics who are serious about information science as a discipline should not be without this book." -- Online Information Review "An excellent resource for those wishing to look at the challenges and issues in library science from a technical viewpoint. It is a wide-ranging look at multiple topics in information science, packed with references to important texts in these areas. Both technically complex and more abstract, theoretical discussions are delivered with concision and clarity." -- Technicalities "...a very useful book for any introductory course for the first year students, that builds an understanding of this wide study, research and practice area that bears the name of Information Science." -- Information Researchshow more

In...I don't think there are any surprises here. Instead of looking at the last twenty games, look at the last 250 games.

Based on that analysis, you can predict the next 60 games.

There will be some nice highs, followed by some real lows, followed by some more highs, etc ...

All the highs and the lows will cancel each other out, and we'll have a team that's a few games over .500 and in the mix for a low playoff seed. Just like the past three seasons.

I'll even throw in another prediction. The goaltending will, at times, be great. Then, at other times, it'll be bad. In the end, it'll average out to a tandem that has a SV% hovering around .900. That puts us in the bottom half of the league. That's all from looking at the historical data of the last 250 games.

That's partly why Volchenkov's blocked shots were important. He saved goals.

The part that worries me, is that the team might make a trade in an effort to turn things around. We would be trading from a position of weakness. On top of that, I don't think that adding or subtracting a player addresses the main issues.

If your leg is hurting, and you go to the doctor and ask him to look at your arm, your leg will still be hurting.

This team has some nice pieces. None of these pieces are playing to their potential. None.

Unless we acquire a player that can magically lift everyone's spirits, and inspire them to new heights, I don't see anything changing.

Is the current group of players capable of much better? Absolutely. It's a good group.

I'm starting to feel a kinship with Flames fans. I think that we have similar problems and similar firstname.lastname@example.com

Khaki Kitchen Aid Cloth Cover Review by Guest
I'm very happy with my purchase of the khaki cover to cover my new mixer. It has a lot of body to it, stands up well and looks good all the time. Have an older cover for my second mixer but hope to replace it with one of the newer ones before too long. (Posted on 6/16/11)

I have the red one and it fits my my 6 quart mixer just great. It has one large pocket that is open all the way across.

On Saturday i wrote about the new converged networking adapter in the Oracle portfolio. However you shouldn't forget that there is a second possible interconnect for a single-fabric network (converged IP and SAN fabric). It's Infiniband - delivering 40 GBit/s for a while now and 104 GBit/s in 2011 (they are changing the coding scheme thus yielding better data rates).
That said a single fabric network is nothing without two things: At first gateways into legacy networks like LAN or SAN. This can be adressed with components like the BridgeX stuff from Mellanox (for example an [URL="http://www.mellanox.com/content/pages.php?pg=products_dyn&product_family=54&menu_section=52#tab-two"]Infiniband to 10GbE/8 GB SAN gateway[/URL]). The other part - and thats the reason why i'm writing this article - is something in the operating system that is capable to speak with such a gateways. With [URL="http://arc.opensolaris.org/caselog/PSARC/2010/251/"]PSARC/2010/251[/URL] there is a case waiting for approval to implement this other component, to implement "Fibre Channel over IB Support" in Opensolaris.
BTW: When you search for a reason to use Infiniband, you should search for the 802.3ba papers for 40 GBit/s or 100 GBit/s Ethernet ... this won't be cheap ... we talk about totally different components here.

Expelled rabbi has been punished enough
The Sept. 25 article on expelled Rabbi A. Charles Shalman touched many people's attitudes. It is unfortunate that this very bright and personable man is repeatedly being placed in a negative spotlight by folks who have become his judge and jury.
To my knowledge, Shalman was an excellent, inspiring speaker; a minister who instituted a program for handicapped children; a man who helped young ones and their parents by personally escorting the youngsters to various appointments and recreational opportunities whenever he could. He lifted the hearts of the bereaved with his healing words, helping to lessen their sadness and much more.
It must be understood that Shalman is a human being with frailties not too unlike other mortals. Has he not had discipline and punishment enough by being robbed of his profession for which he studied so many years and in which he was so very successful in so many ways? Have those who denigrate him again and again have no sympathy and no mercy of this man's frailties?
Where is forgiveness and why is this tenet of our religion forgotten? This man is no criminal, no thief. We forgive murderers; we tell Holocaust survivors to not dwell on their unimaginable experiences. Are we so free and so perfect that we can judge Shalman, who has done so many admirable deeds in his life, or must we forever dwell on his shortcomings?
