Product Description
Sobek, originally subtitled "Temptation of the Nile," is a fast-paced card game from designer Bruno Cathala (Cyclades, MOW). Loads of goods are arriving by ship at the construction site of the temple of Sobek, and players must compete to pick up the best goods in order to eke out the best profit. Not everything is legal, though, and players search for any advantage they can get.
Your goal in Sobek is to acquire groups of goods in order to claim sets of three or more cards and score. Players start each of the three rounds with a couple of cards in hand, then nine cards are laid out on the dock. The deck includes six types of goods – with 6-10 cards in each type – six amulets (which count as any type of good), and nine special characters (which can be played for their special power or grouped with goods cards of the matching type). Some of the goods cards bear 1-3 scarabs to show their trade value, while other goods cards have no scarabs. Character cards, which have a different back, are kept face-down when the cards are laid out on the deck, while goods cards are revealed. Five event tokens out of 12 are randomly chosen and stacked face-down.
* Claim one card from the dock. You can claim one of the first four cards in the row, but each card that you pass over will be added to your corruption stash. The player with the most corruption at the end of the round will lose points. * Lay down a set of three or more goods cards of the same type, either alone or on top of an already existing set of the same type. If any event tokens are still available, look through the stack and choose one of them to enact immediately. The tokens give you points, let you take another turn, turn your corruption into an asset, curse an opponent or boost the value of a played set. * Use a character's special power. While a character can be played as part of a set of goods and count only as a good, it can also be discarded for its power: draw extra cards, add up to two cards to a set of goods on the table, steal cards, force opponents to discard to a hand of six (with excess cards becoming corruption), and so on.
When the final card is taken from the dock, that player immediately lays out nine new cards from the deck as a new delivery of goods. After five or six deliveries, the round ends, with unmatched cards in hand becoming corruption and sets of goods in hand still scoring, but for fewer points. Sets played earlier in the round are worth points equal to the product of the number of scarabs on the cards and the number of cards in the set; sets played at the end of the round are worth only the sum of the scarabs on the cards.
The player with the most corruption moves back on the scoring track, losing one "symbol" on the track for every ten points she scored during that round. (For each symbol move backward, a player will lose 2-8 points.) The board is then reset as at the start of the game, and the player who has the most points after the third round wins.

A fog-shrouded East Palo Alto neighborhood was thrown into chaos Wednesday when a twin-engine Cessna crashed shortly after an early-morning takeoff, spilling wreckage and bodies onto a quiet bayside street — and triggering a massive outage that turned high-tech Palo Alto into a powerless island for 10 hours.
The pilot and two passengers — all employees of Tesla Motors — were killed and three houses were damaged, including a home day care center.
The plane brought down a high tension transmission tower, then broke apart in a dramatic and terrifying descent over the East Palo Alto neighborhood. A wing slammed into the day care, landing gear smashed into a garage, an engine careened into a carport and the fuselage skidded to a halt in the middle of Beech Street. Flames shot out from houses and debris.
Miraculously, nobody on the ground was injured.
Pamela Houston and six others fled from the day care as the plane came crashing down shortly before 8 a.m.
"I grabbed the baby, and we ran into the street," she said. "We were all crying; we were screaming. There is not any word to describe the feeling.''
Authorities had not released the identities of any of the victims by late Wednesday. Authorities have also yet to identify who was piloting the plane, but the Cessna 310R was registered to a former Santa Clara company that was started by Doug Bourn, a Tesla engineer.
An investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board said it's too early to say whether the plane struck power lines or a 60-foot transmission tower.
At the time the plane took off, visibility was so poor — only one-eighth of a mile, and only 100 feet above the ground — that flights had been canceled or delayed at the Bay Area's three major airports. Yet others speculated that the plane's unusual veering path suggested a mechanical failure. Investigators said it will be at least five days before they finish a preliminary probe and months after that for an official report into what happened.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said taking off in bad weather is left up to the discretion of the pilot, whether it be a commercial or private plane. The Palo Alto Airport's control tower opened at 7 a.m., and the Cessna was the only plane to take off between then and around 8 a.m., Gregor said. He added that most commercial airlines have policies to follow before a pilot decides to fly.
On the ground, the fog added to the confusion — and fear. Residents on Beech Street described waking up to explosions; some of them told of watching parts of the plane fall from the dense fog that blanketed the area. And saddest yet, a young girl and 10-year-old boy described seeing the bodies.
Ten-year-old Luis Ramirez Sandin said he was in his front yard, getting ready to go to school, when he saw the blue-and-white plane descend, rock from side to side and then suddenly veer toward his home. It plunged to the street, striking several vehicles and bursting into flames, he said.
"There was no way to get near to help out,'' said his father, Benjamin Ramirez, through a translator. "It was too hot, with tall blue flames. Everybody kept telling us to run. They told us not to get near it."
"The first thing I thought about was my daughters," said Leslie Ramos of Menlo Park who was driving down Beech Street to pick up her two girls, ages 3 and 6, just as the plane was crashing. "I left my car in the middle of the street and ran to the house."
When she was reunited with her daughters a few minutes later, the youngest was crying.
Others ran into the street to find thick smoke rising from three houses. Many feared the worst for the children at the in-home day care center, but it was too early for them to have arrived, and the people living in the house managed to escape out the back. "Some neighbors ran to the house to help,'' said Houston, one of the people at the day care center.
Menlo Park Fire Chief Harold Schapelhouman said he believes the plane clipped a power line on a PG&E high-tension transmission tower shortly after lifting off from the Palo Alto Airport runway just before 8 a.m., headed for Hawthorne Municipal Airport in Southern California.
Moments after the crash, the power went out in neighboring Palo Alto.
The city relies on PG&E's transmission lines to feed its city-run utility. Schools stayed open with teachers' improvising with no computers and principals using airhorns instead of class bells. Stanford Hospital resorted to backup power and diverted all nonemergency calls to hospitals outside the city.
Businesses throughout the city were either forced to close or count cash the old-fashioned way. Some merchants took to the sidewalks to hawk coffee, sandwiches and pastries. But many blacked out of Palo Alto's high-tech offices left for Menlo Park and Mountain View to crash at Wi-Fi cafes.
"I shudder at the thought of what it's going to cost in losses for these retailers," said Sherry Bijan, president of the Palo Alto Downtown Business and Professional Association.
When the Cessna took off, 16 Southwest Airlines flights out of Mineta San Jose International Airport already had been canceled because of the fog.
In foggy or cloudy weather conditions, planes taking of from Palo Alto Airport go straight down the runway and then turn 60 degrees to the right toward the bay at 1,000 feet, said Ken Gottfredson, who owns Advantage Aviation, a flying school and club for pilots that operates out of the Palo Alto Airport.
"He was off to the left of center by half a mile," Gottfredson said. "He should have been over the bay."
John Ferrell, a Los Altos Hills resident, who flies out of the airport three or four times a week, said he arrived there just after the ill-fated plane took off.
"You couldn't see 100 yards in front of you," Ferrell said. He noted that under those conditions, a plane can take off but not land because the runway isn't visible.
Despite speculation about the fog, Ferrell also suggested the plane's left engine may have gone out at takeoff, causing it to veer sharply to the left.
"Even in the best weather, if you lose an engine on takeoff, it's very difficult to overcome it," Ferrell said. "You have to level the wings. You have to feather the engine."
Bourn, an experienced pilot, has commercial and multiengine pilots licenses. An online bio from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers said he helped design and test the power electronics module for the Tesla Roadster. A graduate of Stanford University, Bourn enjoys "motorcycling, sky diving, flying and teaching others how to fly."
No one was home Wednesday morning at his single-story house in Santa Clara, where two motorcycles and a Lexus were in the driveway. Neighbors said he lives alone.

The story is this: Dave and Cheryl Duffield adopted their miniature schnauzer Maddie when she was a tiny puppy, and she became a loyal, loved member of their family.
One day in 1994, Dave Duffield was playing with Maddie as his software company PeopleSoft was just getting off the ground. He picked up his small dog and said, "If we ever make some money, I promise we will give it back to you and your kind so others can be as happy as we are today."
PeopleSoft was plenty successful, of course, and the Duffields kept their promise. For the past 15 years, the Pleasanton-based Maddie's Fund has been providing money for various pursuits -- hands-on animal care, research, education -- in the name of "revolutionizing the status and well-being of companion animals."
The ultimate goal, said Maddie's Fund president Rich Avanzino, is to "empty the shelters," and to ensure that, one day, no animal is ever put to death in one.
"It's a dream all animal lovers have had," said Avanzino, Maddie's Fund president since its inception. "We want to find homes not only for the 'cute and cuddlies,' but the 'old and uglies,' too."
To that end, Maddie's Fund holds its annual Pet Adoption Days, this year on Saturday and Sunday, May 31 and June 1, at almost 100 shelters and pet/pet supplies stores throughout the Bay Area.
Maddie's Fund dollars, Avanzino said, go to those shelters and agencies (who often set up shop at pet businesses on weekend days) to pay for spaying/neutering, immunizations, adoption fees and -- sometimes -- other medical costs that the adopting family would typically have to pay.
That amount is typically from $50 to $250 per animal, he said.
Maddie's Fund has earmarked $10 million to give the participating organizations in the nine states in which it operates, donating up to $2,000 for every dog or cat adopted during the two days.
This funding helps the groups save and treat more animals throughout the year.
Jesse, a young cat found alongside a Martinez road recently, had a broken leg, among other injuries. Jesse was treated for his injuries by Contra Costa-based Community Concern for Cats. Candace Olsen, past president of that group, said Jesse will be at Pet Food Express in Lafayette this weekend as part of the Maddie's Fund event there.
"Most people don't realize that our fee doesn't even come close to paying the cost of rescuing a cat ... So the funds from Maddie's Days allows us to do more rescues all year long," Olsen said.
Adoption events are going on all over the Bay Area, and beyond, Saturday and Sunday. To find the nearest event, go to http://adopt.maddiesfund.org/participants/bay-area/, and click on the county you're interested in.

Voters in Washington, Colorado and Oregon will vote Nov. 6 on whether to legalize the possession and use of marijuana for recreational purposes. While polls suggest Washington and Colorado's initiatives are likely to pass, Oregon's Ballot Measure 80 is struggling to raise money and support. There's a good reason for that: It's ill-conceived and badly written, and voters should reject it.
There are convincing arguments to be made for legalizing marijuana for recreational use by responsible adults. But if it should be legalized — a topic for another day — there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it. Measure 80 is the wrong way.
Reading the text of Measure 80 — on the Internet at http://bit.ly/QLkOaL — makes one wonder if the writers inhaled a bit too much before drafting it. After lofty language invoking the Founding Fathers as enthusiastic hemp growers and cannabis cultivators, it essentially opens the door to unlimited possession by everyone over 21 with virtually no controls.
Washington's measure would use that state's liquor control system to regulate state-owned, free-standing stores and would limit possession to 1 ounce per person. It also would maintain the ban on growing marijuana except for medical use, and includes a strict standard for driving under the influence.
Measure 80 sets no limit on how much can be possessed and would let anyone grow as much as they wish. That might make sense if marijuana were generally legal across the country. As things stand, it's an open invitation to export Oregon pot at tremendous profits. That's already happening with medical marijuana, and there is little reason to think things would be different under Measure 80.
Measure 80 would create a new state commission to regulate sales — but would require that five of the seven members be elected by growers and processors of marijuana. Imagine how effective the Oregon Liquor Control Commission would be if most of its members were distillers and distributors.
The measure's chief petitioner, Douglas Paul Stanford, argues that any problems in the law can be fixed later. That's a long-standing problem with legislating by initiative, and a poor argument for voting yes.
Finally, there is the issue of federal law, which still considers marijuana as dangerous as heroin and methamphetamine and prohibits cultivation and possession. Measure 80 would require the state attorney general not only to defend the law in federal court, but to defend any Oregonian prosecuted for acts legalized by the measure — and to lobby the state's congressional delegation to change federal law. That's a recipe for soaring legal costs.
If supporters of this measure are serious about changing the law, they should watch to see how Washington's carefully written measure fares, and seek to emulate it.
Meanwhile, voters should just say no to Ballot Measure 80.

Parkinson's Disease Health Center
Critical Discovery for Parkinson's
Nov. 6, 2002 -- Researchers are working hard to unlock the mysteries of Parkinson's disease, to understand the biological mechanisms that drive the disease -- and that can lead to new treatments. The "Hegdehog" protein is one of these mechanisms. And new discoveries related to it could even mean better therapies for certain cancers.
A new paper outlines recent findings about what scientists call the "Hedgehog signaling pathway," a system that is essential for keeping the human body supplied with healthy cells. Studies have shown that essentially all major organs require some input from this system for cell health, maintenance, and repair.
(The "Hedgehog" protein was first identified in fruitflies and is so called because fruitfly embryos that had a defect in the protein were covered in bristles.)
Jeffrey A. Porter, PhD, a researcher with the biotechnology company, Curis Inc., of Cambridge, Mass., is lead author of the report, which appears in the latest Journal of Biology.
Porter and his colleagues have discovered a group of molecules that "could have exciting therapeutic benefits," he says a news release. These molecules interact with a protein found on the surface of developing cells and alter the pathway to stimulate or inhibit excess cell growth.
And because the Hedgehog pathway is critical for such cell growth and division, researchers investigating diseases like Parkinson's are interested in finding out what regulates the pathway.
In the case of Parkinson's disease, the researchers hope these molecules could lead to new drugs that could stimulate the pathway to create new cells. Parkinson's disease is characterized by a lack of particular cells as the central nervous system degenerates.
As for cancer, abnormal functioning of this pathway has been implicated particularly in basal cell cancers. Therefore, drugs based on the newly found molecules could block the system and provide a novel approach for treating these cancers.
In fact, recent animal studies shown that the hegdehog system itself can reduce the behavioral impairments and nerve cell loss that occurs in Parkinson's, this creates -- more evidence that drugs that affect this process could be beneficial
One major drawback: Because the hegdehog protein is so large any treatment would involve direct injection into the brain on the other hand these small molecule that the researchers studied may prove to be therapeutically useful to manipulate the hedgehog system.

Julia marries the government
Andrew Bolt
–, Saturday, May, 05, 2012, (12:46pm)
Beyond parody. Barack Obama's latest ad boasts how a single woman can be married to the government for life.
James Taranto:
Julia, who has no face, is depicted at various ages from 3 through 67, enjoying the benefits of various Obama-backed welfare-state programs.
As a toddler, she's in a head-start program. Skip ahead to 17, and she's enrolled at a Race to the Top high school. Her 20s are very active: She gets surgery and free birth control through ObamaCare regulations, files a lawsuit under the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, and pays off her student loans at a low interest rate. We get updates at age 31, 37 and 42--and then the narrative skips ahead 23 years when she enrolls in Medicare. Two years later, she's on Social Security, at which point she can die at any time....
At 31, the story tells us, "Julia decides to have a child. Throughout her pregnancy, she benefits from maternal checkups, prenatal care, and free screenings under health care reform." In due course she bears a son named Zachary, the only other character in the tale… The most shocking bit of the Obama story is that Julia apparently never marries. She simply "decides" to have a baby, and Obama uses other people's money to help her take care of it. Julia doesn't appear to be poor; at various points the story refers to her glamorous career as a Web designer, and it makes no mention of her benefiting from poverty programs…
In 1999 Lionel Tiger coined the word "bureaugamy" to refer to the relationship between officially impoverished mothers of illegitimate children and the government. "The Life of Julia" is an insidious attack on the institution of the family, an endorsement of bureaugamy even for middle-class women.
Who the hell is "Julia," and why am I paying for her whole life?
In fact, she can't be anything without massive assistance from Barack every step of the way, from his "Head Start" program at age 3 through to his Social Security benefits at the age of 67. Everything good in her life she owes to him. When she writes her memoir, it will be thanks to a subvention from the Federal Publishing Assistance Program for Chronically Dependent Women but you'll love it: Sweet Dreams From My Sugar Daddy… She's not competent to do a single thing for herself – and, from Barack's point of view, that's exactly what he's looking for in a woman, if only for a one-night stand on a Tuesday in early November.
(Thanks to readers Terry, Spencer and Mark.)
Have Your Say
So what's new? we are encouraging a nation of "Julias" here too. Her lifestyle is fast becoming the norm

Sat 05 May 12 (03:14pm)
Is it just me or do others also think the choice of the name 'Julia' is hilarious? I suspect if President Obama and our Julia were really such 'good mates' he would have cautioned against the name 'Julia'. In fact he might have said, 'no you can't.'
I think Miss Gillard will find it all a bit embarrassing.
And how funny is it that we now have another fake Julia.

i think julia is a top sheila. contributing to society without the benefit of inherited money. rather my tax dollars go to her than bullets and bombs. without help maybe julia would become a hooker or a drug dealer. this is by far the better alternative

Don't be so ridiculous, what socialist policies has President Obama introduced ? and please don't be stupid enough to say Obamacare !!
You should read any analysis of Paul Ryan's Republican budget if you want to know what the Republicans plan for America is.
Republicans want to change the entire system in America to a system the Communist Chinese operate under.
ie low wages and no conditions for workers, no unions, no social services, no free health care ,no free education, no restrictions on business and of course low tax rates for corporations and the wealthy.
That's sinister not Obama's plan to get America out of the biggest recession since the 1930's something the previous Republican administration left him to deal with.
Sat 05 May 12 (03:53pm)
Ever read 1984, maybe thats what you're thinking of.
But I agree, sinister and insideous both Barak and our own leader.
Sat 05 May 12 (04:05pm)
What would Mitt Romney do about North Korea ?
American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer poked fun at Mitt Romney today on Focal Point following the resignation of Richard Grenell, an openly gay Romney spokesman on security issues who Fischer and other Religious Right leaders wanted ousted from the campaign.
Anti-gay activists celebrated news of Grenell's resignation as a "huge win," and the New York Times reported that one Republican adviser claimed the campaign offered no defense of Grenell because "they didn't want to confront the religious right."
Today, Fischer asserted that Romney shouldn't expect voters to trust him to confront China, Russia or North Korea if he cannot stand up to "a conservative radio talk show host in Middle America."
Sat 05 May 12 (05:21pm)
you are the only one
Of course, this campaign assumes that Obama will be President from Julia's birth until she's in her 70s. The ad will be buried when Obama loses in November.

House Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan called the ad "demeaning".
"She must have him and his big government to depend on to go anywhere in life. It doesn't say much about his faith in Julia," Ryan said.

Barack Obama's latest ad boasts how a single woman can be married to the government for life.
What do expect from President Barack Hussein Obama after all according to the folks on the right he's a Kenyan Socialist,a Nazi,a Marxist, a Communist,a Maoist,a Racist and terrorist sympathiser who wants to destroy America so that his Muslim brothers can takeover the country and bring in Sharia Law !!

Yes,dopey thats right.
Sat 05 May 12 (04:10pm)
The folks on the right are devil-worshipping Masons. They want to establish a new world order this December with alien assistance and it would help if their puppett Buttermitt Romney could first oust Obama who has a troublesome compassion for his fellow man.
Obama's a bigger idiot than I thought, if he thinks he's going to be the POTUS for 70 years. Wonder if Julia will blame him when she can't afford to live on her meagre social security checks in retirement, whilst the heating cuts out on cloudy, windless days, and she dreams of the time when electricity was not an optional extra in life.

people are so concerned that their tax dollars are going to help an individual. why don't they question how their money is being flushed down the toilet in americas never ending wars, drone attacks etc ? why don't they have a similar show about the 4 billion dollars a year of tax payers money that goes to israel? with a step by step breakdown of where the money actually goes. eg building illegal settlements, bulldozers for demolishing palestinian homes etc. as a taxpayer i would be far more outraged over that, than my money going to an individual, that will hopefully be contributing too society in a positive way. still most americans cannot think that deeply it seems? these talking heads contribute nothing worth hearing

You just can't keep a good old Anti-Semite down can you Robert !! No matter what the topic.
Sat 05 May 12 (03:17pm)
/sigh do you enjoy distorting the truth or do you not realise just how little you know?
In 2011 this was the break up:
- Social security 20% of spending
- Medicare 23% of spending
- Defense 19% of spending
Here is the planned budget for the fiscal year of 2012 to 2013 in the US:
Department of Health and Human Services including Medicare and Medicaid $940.9 billion
Social Security Administration $882.7 billion
Department of Defense including Overseas Contingency Operations $672.9 billion
Defense spending is 37% of healthcare and welfare.
The total defecit expected? $901B
Yeah, defense spending is the problem.
Sat 05 May 12 (04:13pm)
Robert, you seem to have a problem with the US giving
financial to the only true democracy in the middle east while
you don't mention US aid to any other country.
Not being a touch anti- semetic are we?
Sat 05 May 12 (05:45pm)
Yeah, if my government was spending $3,800,000,000,000 a year, i'd be pretty anoyed that they were spending $4 billion dollars on Israel. I bet those pesky Jews are also stockpiling the apostrophe key on you computer too…

Julia??? Baaa haaa haaa!

That was the response around the table here as well.
Now who is Barrack writing campaign material for? Doesn't he know how hard it is to be in Julias' shoes already?
We've been having fun on twitter with Obama's composite girlfriend, composite Julia sucking off Obama's manboob, and the glaring similarities with our own fake Julia but ask me seriously, and I would say that I find Obama's Julia campaign to be the most creepy, offensive and dangerous thing I've seen in my life.
Yes I'm a woman. And I thank God for men like Taranto and Steyn, who get it, f and who understand what real women want.

what is a "real woman" Correllio?? - what are her characteristics, aspirations and interests - it would be interesting to know what one woman thinks - and help me identify "the artificial woman? - a handy skill it might be - as you clearly think this "real woman" is a cut above the others - who just might be worth avoiding
Americans are certainly behind Australia in implementing the socialst agenda. As a woman I am insulted but a walk down the street and that is what actually confronts us everyday.
Becoming a mother is a lifestyle deliberately chosen by some teenagers and having several children keeps them on welfare for life, not only them but their children.
This ad is fantastic in that it shows these women they are owned by the State who has them and their children tied to a life of poverty and hopelessness on the other hand it may encourage some to choose such a life.
Sat 05 May 12 (01:46pm)
Australia, together with most western democracies, have similar cradle to grave support.
The only surprising fact, is that a Nation as rich as America, has so many who oppose this sort of comprehensive social justice.
Sat 05 May 12 (01:47pm)
Sat 05 May 12 (03:05pm)
2 very poor assumptions there, Old Leftie. And ones that lefties make all the time.
1. That any nation is rich enough to support an all encompassing cradle to grave welfare state. No state is. Have a look at Europe. Maybe one of the reasons for America's (fast diminishing) wealth is that until recently it rejected the European model of social democracy.
2. The very term "social justice" implies ALL these government programs are a basic human right. They are not. They are just legislated benefits given to one citizen by taking money (taxes) another citizen.
A basic principle to go by; every right you say someone has implies someone else has a responsibility to provide.
Sat 05 May 12 (03:20pm)
Yeah, just look at how great Europe is going with all that 'justice'.
I love how you call it 'justice' and not it's actual word 'theft'.
Welfare was meant to be a safety net, instead ignorant people like you turned it in to a lifestyle choice.
At any rate, more than 40% of US governments expenditure is on healthcare and welfare. Your comment is utter nonsense.
Sums up the welfare state mentality perfectly. ie I'm not responsible for myself or my decisions, and someone else will pay, either in cash or consequences
Sat 05 May 12 (01:52pm)
I forgot to mention the socialist lifestyle does encourage young men to abandon responsibilty and their children.
There is so much wrong with social security that is not a safetly net.
Young must see people who achieve under our own Labor Government are penalised.
Tax those who create wealth and jobs into oblivion.
We have lawyers living off welfare whose lives, business and wealth are built on servicing clients created by government handouts and illegal immigration.

maggie, socialist countries have as many occupations to choose from as a capitalist system. more actually, because there is no such thing as unemployment. julia could become any number of things in a socialist country, not necessarily a single mother. the question should be asked if a single mother was taken off benefits how would the children fare? not very well is my guess. any country without the welfare net or a weak one like america,. has massive crime rates and drug problems. take your pick people. welfare is by far the lesser of two evils. and if for some reason some of you people end up in a bad situation [ unemployed , sick ] you would welcome welfare . kinda makes you hypocrites
Sat 05 May 12 (06:07pm)
"I forgot to mention the socialist lifestyle does encourage young men to abandon responsibilty and their children. "
Really? How does that work? How does a man benefit from abandoning his children?
Sat 05 May 12 (08:40pm)
Robert, no unemployment = high inflation.
You do not want to be a victim of hyperinflation. You can ask Zimbabwe about that one.
Top 10 Shocking Attacks from the Republican Party's War on Women
1) Republicans not only want to reduce women's access to abortion care, they're actually trying to redefine rape. After a major backlash, they promised to stop. But they haven't yet.
2) A state legislator in Georgia wants to change the legal term for victims of rape, stalking, and domestic violence to "accuser." But victims of other less gendered crimes, like burglary, would remain "victims."
3) In South Dakota, Republicans proposed a bill that could make it legal to murder a doctor who provides abortion care.
4) Republicans want to cut nearly a billion dollars of food and other aid to low-income pregnant women, mothers, babies, and kids.
5) In Congress, Republicans have a bill that would let hospitals allow a woman to die rather than perform an abortion necessary to save her life.
6) Maryland Republicans ended all county money for a low-income kids' preschool program. Why? No need, they said. Women should really be home with the kids, not out working.
7) And at the federal level, Republicans want to cut that same program, Head Start, by $1 billion. That means over 200,000 kids could lose their spots in preschool.
8) Two-thirds of the elderly poor are women, and Republicans are taking aim at them too. A spending bill would cut funding for employment services, meals, and housing for senior citizens.
9) Congress just voted for a Republican amendment to cut all federal funding from Planned Parenthood health centers, one of the most trusted providers of basic health care and family planning in our country.
10) And if that wasn't enough, Republicans are pushing to eliminate all funds for the only federal family planning program.

Mrs G (is that you Blackie?), you have done a cut and paste from an Emily's List propaganda sheet.
You really must try harder in future dear.
Sat 05 May 12 (05:32pm)
If you keep killing the kids, Mrs G, there won't be too many taxpayers in the future to keep funding Julia's lifestyle…

The war on women?
There have never been a more protected and priviliged class of people than western women of today.
Sat 05 May 12 (06:18pm)
Been reading some RadFem blogs have we Mrs G?
To all your points I say - show the proof.
In point form I will say
1) The Obama administration has actually redefined rape in colleges backed by threat of cutting government money. The onus is now on the accused to prove innocence.
2) They are accusers because of pesky presumption of innocence.
3) Provide proof please.
4) AND obviously poor men, single fathers etc.
5) Please provide proof
6) Or men maybe? Fathers look after kids too.
7) As above. Aren't the kids the ones missing out? Are they all girls?
8) So doesn't it affect the elderly men? Why are ther twice as many elderly women than men? Lifestyle choice of course - you know all those risky jobs they choose and all.
9)Planned Parenthood is an ideologically driven advocacy agency that is trying to replace men/fathers with government.
10) As above.
You, I believe, is what is called a useful idiot.
So, who do you barrack for?
Obama, of course!

Socialism by another name.
You mean like President Bush's $ Trillion bail out of the Wall Street Banks in 2008 - that type of socialism ?
Every person living the 'prescribed' life - that's what leftism is all about.
And the best part is - the government has consulted with 'experts' to determine what the prescribed behaviors should be.
What could be wrong with that?
Sat 05 May 12 (02:21pm)
Its real name is communism. But it's worse than communism - it's a kind of super-communism with proud beneficiaries exploiting and denouncing their (tax-payer) benefactors via socialist government instruction and facilitation. It is, in fact, approaching fascism where the state decides who is a worthy citizen and who is not, redefining what is 'family' and who has access to technology. Society then becomes a farm in order to populate with 'the right kind of citizen' paid for by a toiling down-trodden, vilified, tax-paying underclass notably traditional working families who receive no or little assistance. The left-wing media play their integral role in propagandising such initiatives without question or debate. Progressive? More like a recipe for disaster then extinction. Typical.

RPP is always excited to welcome back old friends, so this week we get a mini-interview with repeat RPP offender, Milo James Fowler. Last time we had him around was Spring 2011 when he treated us to a Coyote Cal adventure. This time, it was Mercer and "Abomination of Desolation".
1. For those who haven't read it yet, can you describe "Abomination of Desolation" in one sentence?
Let's see, how about this: Mercer, a body-hopping phantasmal antihero (and an abomination in the eyes of the Church), is offered a deal he can't refuse by his nemesis, Father Thomas, if he rids the world of a certain boy with horrifying powers.
2. Perfect. So, from what I hear, this isn't the last of your, um, hero, Mercer…?
That's right; "Abomination" is the fifth in a series of Mercer tales that have been published to date, and it's my favorite of the bunch. There are two more that have yet to find good homes: in one, Mercer goes toe to toe with the Big Man (Saint Peter) over a smuggled soul, and in the other, he's up against Lucifer and his meddling minions. Both stories are currently out on submission, and just like the others, it's not immediately clear whether Mercer is the hero or the villain in each one.
3. You're always publishing all over the place–can you tell us about some of your latest stories and where we can get our hands on them?
Thanks for asking. =] "Minuteman" (alternate history) is currently up at Cosmos Online; "Soulless in His Sight" (post-apocalypse) is in the latest issue of Shimmer (#15); and "Captain Quasar and the Fastest Thumbs on Zeta Colony Four" (space opera) is at Ray Gun Revival. All three of these stories, as well as "Abomination of Desolation," were written as part of the Write1Sub1 challenge, which I highly recommend for all writers of short fiction interested in honing their craft. Our slogan is "Come for the challenge; stay for the community." Corny? Maybe. But it's never too late to join, and you'll be glad you did!
No doubt in my mind. And yeah, this is what I mean by all over the place. Amazing. So if y'all haven't caught a chance to see "Abomination of Desolation" yet, consider this a written invitation. You'll be glad you did that, too.

The Nanotechnology Characterization Laboratory Business Plan
Nanoscale particles and devices are similar in size to biomolecules and can easily enter most cells. Our ability to manipulate the physical, chemical, and biological properties of these particles affords researchers the ability to engineer and use nanoparticles for drug delivery, as image contrast agents, and for diagnostic purposes.
National Cancer Institute (NCI) is establishing the Nanotechnology Characterization Laboratory (NCL) at its NCI-Frederick facility to provide critical infrastructure support to this rapidly developing field of nanotechnology. Working in concert with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the intent of the NCL is to accelerate the transition of basic nano-biotech research into clinical applications.

Their wall-street buddies will try hard to hold MSG for a while, but to no avail....then a sudden drop shall come! Let's see what happens
I'm selling if they don't keep Lin. While his deal with Houston is rich, the revenue and global buzz he generates is what MSG needs. Without Lin, the Knicks are going to be very unpopular this season.
the stock will decline until they work the sign and trade for Chris Paul just before the trade deadline next season
It's going under $30 in a few months IMO.

Deciphering Burning Beard
I have been listening to "Burning Beard" by Clutch for months now and I cannot decipher the meaning of the lyrics. At one point, they reference Occam's Razor, so I thought this the appropriate place to try and find insight as to the meaning.
"Burning Beard" by Clutch
Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in
Lobsterbacks attack the town again
Wrap all my things in aluminum
Beams of darkness streak across the sky
Pink rays from the ancient satellite
Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me
Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me
The power of the Holy Ghost
The power of the Holy Ghost
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calf
Swan diving off the tongues of crippled giants
International Business Machine
Choking on bits of barley bread crumbs
Oh this burning beard I have come undone
It's just as I've feared. I have, I have come undone
Bugger dumb the last of academe
Occam's razor makes the cutting clean
Shaven like a banker, lilac vegetal
Break the glass ceiling and golden parachute on down
The power of the Holy Ghost comes to town
Shadow of the New Praetorian
Tipping cows in fields Elysian
Saturnalia for all you have
The seven habits of the highly infected calf

Munster SFC quarter-final preview: Kerry v Tipperary
Updated: Sunday, 26 May 2013 13:56 | Comments
By Micil Glennon
Kerry v Tipperary, Fitzgerald Stadium, 2pm
Kerry boss Éamonn Fitzmaurice takes charge of his first Championship match after overseeing a roller-coaster Allianz League campaign that went from the ridiculous (versus Mayo and Dublin) to the sublime (the first half against Tyrone).
But it should be taken into account the Kingdom began the series without the likes of Paul Galvin, Colm Cooper and Kieran Donaghy, which goes some way to explaining the early-season defeats.
Last season's Munster SFC meeting between the sides won't be far from Kerry minds in the build-up to Sunday's clash.
Tipperary outplayed the beaten 2011 All-Ireland finalists for large parts of the game in Thurles before tiring and falling to a six-point defeat.
Ahead of today's game, Donaghy said in the Irish Daily Mail: "Every year that gap is getting shorter. It went up to 50 minutes and then last year we were only a point up after 62 minutes. You don't want to get into a situation where it's 65, 70 minutes and still very tight. A goal could lose you the game."
Fitzmaurice hands a Championship debut to Dr Crokes defender Fionn Fitzgerald, while Cooper will captain the side with Eoin Brosnan on the bench as he recovers from injury.
Tipperary will be hoping to put a disappointing league run behind them.
They missed out on promotion from Division 4 after a final-day defeat to Offaly.
This will be the fourth meeting of the sides in the last four years and manager Peter Creedon, from Cork, told the Irish Examiner he relishes these clashes: "I love playing Kerry, personally, I always have.
"Kerry or Cork are great draws. We haven't been able to bridge the gap between them in recent years but there'll come a day Tipp will beat them.
"I'm not saying it will be Sunday but some day."
Forward Michael Quinlivan is out with an ankle injury and Creedon gives first Championship starts to both John Coghlan and Ian Fahey.
A trip to Waterford awaits the victors in the semi-final and the Kingdom should have too much experience to get tripped by Tipp.
Verdict: Kerry
Kerry: B Kealy; M Ó Sé, A O'Mahony, F Fitzgerald; T Ó Sé, K Young, P Crowley; A Maher, J Buckley; P Galvin, C Cooper (c), D Walsh; D O'Sullivan, K Donaghy, J O'Donoghue.
Tipperary: P Fitzgerald; J Coghlan, P Codd, C McDonald; R Kiely, D Leahy, A Campbell; G Hannigan, R Costigan; C Sweeney, I Fahey, P Acheson; A Maloney, B Grogan, P Austin.

"The NZS executive board decided unanimously to appoint Katanec instead of Slavisa Stojanovic who parted company with the national team by mutual consent in December," the Slovenian FA said.
"Katanec's contract runs until the end of Slovenia's Euro 2016 campaign and his first game in charge will be a friendly against Bosnia in Koper next month."
Once a gifted defensive midfielder, Katanec scored five goals in 31 games for the former Yugoslavia and featured in the squad that reached the 1990 World Cup quarter-finals.
He played the last five games of his international career for Slovenia after the country gained independence in June 1991.
Following his successful first coaching stint with Slovenia from 1998-2002, Katanec had mediocre spells with Greek side Olympiacos as well as Macedonia and most recently the United Arab Emirates.
The 49-year-old, who played for Partizan Belgrade, VfB Stuttgart and Sampdoria, now faces a tough task of rekindling Slovenia's slim hopes of reaching the 2014 World Cup finals after a poor start.
The team are fifth in Group E with three points from four games, seven adrift of leaders Switzerland. Their next World Cup qualifier is at home to Iceland on March 22.

Patty Murray on Education
Democratic Sr Senator (WA)
Murray's legislation was defeated twice along partisan lines. In the meantime the Clinton proposal of a further tax on tobacco was defeated as well.
She had one remaining angle--finding seed money in the federal budget. Finally her efforts paid off. Murray was able to gain a 1 year appropriation of $1.2 billion to hire and train 29,000 new elementary school teachers for kindergarten through 3rd grade across the country.
Proponents support voting YES because:
Rep. OBEY: This bill, more than any other, determines how willing we are to make the investment necessary to assure the future strength of this country and its working families. The President has chosen to cut the investments in this bill by more than $7.5 billion in real terms. This bill rejects most of those cuts.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Rep. LEWIS: This bill reflects a fundamental difference in opinion on the level of funding necessary to support the Federal Government's role in education, health and workforce programs. The bill is $10.2 billion over the President's budget request. While many of these programs are popular on both sides of the aisle, this bill contains what can rightly be considered lower priority and duplicative programs. For example, this legislation continues three different programs that deal with violence prevention. An omnibus bill is absolutely the wrong and fiscally reckless approach to completing this year's work. It would negate any semblance of fiscal discipline demonstrated by this body in recent years.
Veto message from President Bush:
This bill spends too much. It exceeds [by $10.2 billion] the reasonable and responsible levels for discretionary spending that I proposed to balance the budget by 2012. This bill continues to fund 56 programs that I proposed to terminate because they are duplicative, narrowly focused, or not producing results. This bill does not sufficiently fund programs that are delivering positive outcomes. This bill has too many earmarks--more than 2,200 earmarks totaling nearly $1 billion. I urge the Congress to send me a fiscally responsible bill that sets priorities.
The National Education Association has a long, proud history as the nation's leading organization committed to advancing the cause of public education. Founded in 1857 "to elevate the character and advance the interests of the profession of teaching and to promote the cause of popular education in the United States," the NEA has remained constant in its commitment to its original mission as evidenced by the current mission statement:
To fulfill the promise of a democratic society, the National Education Association shall promote the cause of quality public education and advance the profession of education; expand the rights and further the interest of educational employees; and advocate human, civil, and economic rights for all.In pursuing its mission, the NEA has determined that it will focus the energy and resources of its 2.7 million members toward the "promotion of public confidence in public education." The ratings are based on the votes the organization considered most important; the numbers reflect the percentage of time the representative voted the organization's preferred position.
The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.

Vale, Pacific Hydro to Build Wind Farms in Brazil for Mining
Vale SA, the world's biggest iron-ore producer, will invest 650 million reais ($315 million) in two wind farms that Pacific Hydro Pty. will develop in Brazil to meet its growing energy needs.
Vale and Melbourne-based Pacific Hydro will each own 50 percent of the projects in the northeastern state of Rio Grande do Norte, the Rio de Janeiro-based mining company said today in a statement. They will have combined capacity of 140 megawatts.
Vale, which will consume all of the plants' energy for 20 years, is seeking to produce more of the power it needs to expand its mining operations, according to the statement.
"Vale's global electricity demand is expected to grow 150 percent by 2020," Vania Somavilla, the company's director of human resources, health and safety, sustainability and energy, said in the statement. "We're looking for alternatives to meet this necessity in a sustainable manner."
The projects are expected to start producing power in 2014 and will be Vale's first wind farms, according to the statement.
Pacific Hydro has developed two Brazilian wind farms with 58 megawatts of capacity in the northeastern city of Paraiba that sell power to Centrais Eletricas Brasileiras SA, according to the statement.

MCDUFFIE COUNTY, Ga. (WRDW) -- Students in McDuffie County headed back to school today.
But kids at McDuffie-Thomson Middle School won't be coming back to school the way they left it before summer break.
The school is now piloting a new technology program called "Bring Your Own Technology."
"It's a chance for the kids to bring in their devices. Their cell phones, iPhones, iPads... and actually use those in the classroom," says teacher Nathaniel Meador.
Meador said he tested the program in his classroom last year, and he thinks it kept his students engaged.
"The students are hooked in. Their attention is right on you...right on their phones," Meador said.
Principal Neil Tam said he's excited to get the program started, and he's ready to kick off a new year.
"I just want it to be the best year ever. Our theme in the county is pulling together and we're pulling together for the best year ever at Thomson-McDuffie Middle School," Tam said.

SIKESTON -- In another first for the hospital, Missouri Delta Medical Center is now offering Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery for gall bladder surgery patients.
"It is exciting because this is something Missouri Delta Medical Center has before anyone else in this area," said Sharon Urhahn, director of marketing for MDMC. "There is nobody trained to do it in Cape Girardeau, nobody in Poplar Bluff."
Dr. Ly Phan, general surgeon at MDMC, attended two training courses, one in Chicago and the other in Tennessee, to learn the procedure which has just started to be used in hospitals over the last year or so.
"It's more of an advanced laparoscopic skill," Phan said. "It is a new, innovative technique."

The State Of The Union Through Your Eyes
Originally published on Tue January 28, 2014 4:44 pm
Today, President Obama will deliver his fifth State of the Union address. He'll talk about the past year and he'll lay out his vision for the year to come.
A few days ago we asked NPR listeners to show us the state of the union through their lens. We wanted to get a feel of where Americans feel their country stands.
As you might expect, the responses we received ranged from those who thought the country was in tatters, to those who were in a pretty good place in their life and gave the country's situation a rating of 8 out of 10.
Thirty-two-year-old Colin Hosten, of Connecticut, took a photograph of an American flag, still waving but tattered.
"I happened to look up and see it and the first thought in my mind was how symbolic it was — about the state of American politics and in some ways of American society today," he told us. "It's kind of like this fabric that's been torn in two."
Thirty-year-old Anthony Rizzo, of New Jersey, told us he lost his job in 2008. Since then, he said, it's been a struggle.
He chose a historical photograph from the Great Depression of an advertising man desperately seeking employment. That's how Rizzo feels and he hopes that President Obama addresses that today.

An initiative to increase the number of tested rape kits.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine says as of the first of the year, over 5,000 were submitted by local law enforcement.
Attorney General DeWine encourages the rape kits to be submitted so that information can then be put into the combined DNA index system.
The system then helps track down suspects, resulting in over 800 hits this past year, helping to solve not only rapes, but also other crimes.
Officials say over the years the system has changed, so when arrested on a felony it's like finger printing - they get your DNA as well.
"Essentially someone may get away with a rape or even a homicide," says Capt. Troy Hawkins with the Washington County Sheriff's Office. "It's not just about sexual assault kits, it's DNA as a whole. There is DNA in other cases, now as DNA progresses that can be submitted."
Hawkins says if a person does get away and committs another crime later on, they can be immediately tracked back to the original crime.
He says multiple crimes in Washington County have been solved through this system.

Investigation into teen's shooting continues
SAN DIEGO Detectives investigating the fatal drive-by shooting of 15-year-old Joanna Vargas continued to close in on the accomplices following the key arrest of the suspected shooter over the weekend, police said Monday.
"Multiple people" were inside the silver 2010 Toyota 4Runner that police said 19-year-old Luis Francisco Barron was riding in when he fired the fatal shot Aug. 27 into Lindbergh Park in Clairemont, said homicide Lt. Kevin Rooney.
The SUV was later found in Northern California.
Rooney said that detectives are making a case regarding the driver and the others in the SUV, and the information will then be presented to the District Attorney who will determine if charges will be filed, he said.
Witnesses said the SUV stopped in the northbound lane of Ashford Street when the shot was fired about 1:15 a.m. and then drove away at normal speed in the quiet neighborhood south of Balboa Avenue and west of Interstate 805.
Joanna, a Madison High School student, was killed.
"In a way I feel comforted this person is in jail, but nothing is going to cure the pain in my heart and no one is going to bring back my daughter," Joanna's mother, Estella Martinez, said Monday in Spanish through a translator.
"I just want justice for my daughter, whatever the judge and God decide."
Barron, an unemployed U.S. citizen on probation on an unrelated grand theft charge, was taken into custody about 5 p.m. Friday in Tijuana, where his parents live. He was staying with relatives and was arrested without incident in the Colonia Obrera neighborhood by Mexico state police, Rooney said. He was returned to San Diego Saturday afternoon, Rooney said.
"We're confidant we have the right man," said homicide Lt. Kevin Rooney.
Until recently, Barron was living in the neighborhood where the shooting took place. Detectives believe that the driver of the SUV was also familiar with the area.
Barron was booked into San Diego Central jail where he is being held without bail and is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.
Rooney said it was difficult to know what motivated the shooting, which appeared to be random. There is no evidence there was any connection between the shooter and the young people, Rooney said.
Joanna, who was about to start 11th grade, had sneaked out of her home to be with her 19-year-old cousin and two 19-year-old boys. Her mother said the last time she saw her daughter she was asleep on the couch and she did not know she had gone out.
Rooney would not say exactly what led them to naming Barron as a suspect but did say that there were multiple appeals for information made by friends, family and the media.
Detectives also canvassed the area and handed out about a thousand fliers and checked surveillance cameras looking for clues.

DENVER — U.S. Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., this week claimed he is being targeted for defeat by the national conservative organization, Americans For Prosperity (AFP), and called upon his Colorado supporters to help him win re-election in 2014.
In an email issued by Udall's re-election organization on June 23, signed "Mark" at the bottom, Udall told voters, "For months I've been telling you to be ready for the oncoming rush of secret money from outside groups into Colorado. But, I didn't think it would come so soon."
The email informed recipients that the campaign has learned of a "AFP's six-figure campaign to attack Democrats across the country. And I'm one of their top targets." The AFP was founded and continues to be supported by billionaires Charles and David Koch, who live part-time in Aspen. It is a non-profit organization that, under IRS rules, is not required to divulge its donor list to the public.
A spokesman for AFP Colorado, Sean Paige, laughingly denied Udall's accusations and said, "We're not in the business of electing candidates" or opposing specific office holders or candidates.
Paige acknowledged that AFP recently "called him out" on his failure to vote against a carbon-tax proposal that was rejected by the Senate, 58-41.
According to Paige, Udall has seen his poll numbers falling lately, so "he had to call on us and play the Koch card.
Paige pointed out that his organization is not strictly a pro-Republican voice, noting that the AFP recently criticized House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio), for Boehner's support for the recently defeated "farm bill," which AFP opposed.
"I think his response is an overreaction," Paige said.
By way of background in his fund-raising appeal, Udall credited AFP with playing "a major role in the 2010 GOP takeover of the House of Representatives," and with spending "a staggering $33 million to try and boot President Barack Obama out of office" in 2012.
Udall's assertions are in keeping with findings from the nonprofit group, OpenSecrets.org, which keeps track of political expenditures by parties, candidates and others.
According to a June 6 story by the online news organization, Raw Story, the AFP in early June announced plans to spend $175,000 to block legislation aimed at establishing carbon taxes on the energy industry, calling it the "first wave of a campaign against climate action," and against the entire climate agenda of President Obama.
But the campaign did not mention Obama, according to Raw Story. Instead it named three Democratic Senators facing re-election in 2014 — Udall, Mark Begich of Alaska and Kay Hagen of North Carolina.
The AFP push is seen possibly as a response to an earlier ad campaign by Organizing For Action, a pro-Obama group set up to support the president's climate agenda, according to Raw Story.
Udall's message called the recently announced AFP campaign "a drop in the bucket" compared to the group's earlier spending, and noted that the actual campaigning for 2014 has yet to begin.
But, he added, "They're trying to soften me up" with a negative ad campaign designed to prompt questions in voters' minds about Udall's politics and his positions.
A spokesman for AFP Colorado, Sean Paige, laughingly denied Udall's accusations and said, "We're not in the business of electing candidates" or opposing specific office holders or candidates.

Aiken, SC - These days, the words "great kick" are said an awful lot at Silver Bluff High School. That's thanks to kicker Kyle Mackey. But it hasn't always been that way.
"I could barely hit an extra point in the eighth grade," said Mackey. "Actually, took me a couple games to hit an extra point."
Now, Mackey may be the best kicker in the state in Class AA. With a range of nearly 50-plus yards and a punting average around 38 yards, he's become quite the weapon for the Bulldogs
"You're talking probably 2 to 3 first downs a game probably with him kicking," said head coach Al Lown. "And we've kicked more field goals in the last few years than in the first 15 or so years I was here. There's been years where we didn't even try a field goal."
"I've come so many days when nobody else was up here, on Sundays, and even during the offseason," said Mackey. "Just come when no one else is up here, kicking through the field goal posts. It's taken a lot to get where I am right now."
Through the years, Mackey's also gotten stronger. And though he's a pretty big guy, don't expect to see him playing any other position anytime soon.
"Yeah, they won't let me play any other position but kicker," explained Mackey.
"He may have thought about it but he ain't going to. He's too valuable as a kicker to us," responded Lown.
But that's just fine for the senior, who knows the team trust him with every kick and every punt.
"It's a good feeling knowing that when the game's in my hand, they count on me to make the play game and win the game for them sometimes," said Mackey.
"When you've got a guy who can kick as well as he does and punt, that really is a big plus for us," said Lown. "He's definitely the best kicker ever at this school."
Mackey hopes to continue kicking in college. He has currently been getting offers from small colleges such as Newberry, Furman, and Charleston Southern.

For Farkas, Centerline's Appeal Is In Special Servicing
As New York real-estate investor Andrew Farkas is close to taking over the loan-servicing unit of Centerline Holding Co., the company will likely be split in two parts. But Mr. Farkas is clearly most interested in just one of those parts.
Mr. Farkas for months has been eyeing Centerline, formerly known as CharterMac when it was listed on the stock exchange in 1997 as a publicly-traded finance company that would invest in tax-exempt bonds. The company today also owns businesses that make multifamily mortgages aimed for Fannie Mae's portfolio and provide financing for the affordable apartment rental industry. In recent months, Centerline has been struggling to restructure debt as those businesses grappled with higher default rates and reduced cash flow.
In July, Mr. Farkas' company, Island Capital Group, reached an agreement with Centerline to figure out a way to recapitalize the company.
According to a Centerline spokeswoman, under the plan being negotiated, Mr. Farkas' Island Capital would get full ownership of the special servicing business. The other part of the company, including agency lending and affordable housing, would remain public and Island Capital would get a partial ownership.
"Mr. Farkas intends to adapt the Insignia model to reposition Centerline," the spokeswoman said, referring to the commercial real-estate investment and brokerage firm he built up in the 1990s and then sold in the early 2000s.
As we reported in today's WSJ, Owning a special servicer, which controls the workout process involving troubled mortgages bundled into bonds, would put into his hands the fate of tens of thousands of defaulted commercial buildings and the investors who bought into the bonds backed by those properties. Some bondholders worry that Mr. Farkas would be more interested in buying up the troubled assets for overly depressed prices and making money for his own firm than for the investors to whom a servicer holds a fiduciary responsibility. A special servicer has the option of buying the assets it manages for the bondholders, but it hasn't been widely exercised. So far many of these assets have sold at auctions
As of Sept. 30, Centerline's special-servicing unit had $6.2 billion of assets under management, up from $1.5 billion a year earlier, according to the company's quarterly report.
Mr. Farkas declined to discuss the Centerline deal. But in a statement, Mr. Farkas said it was "absurd" to suggest that he wouldn't serve the interests of bondholders. "I have always done well for my partners and investors," he said through a spokesman.

Hi all-
Armchair mechanic here, and having a devil of a time with an O2 sensor on my daugher's '04 WJ Laredo 4.0L 6-cyl. w/ 138,000 miles. The history is that we had some O2 sensor codes (don't recall all of them now), and poor mileage. Her boyfriend replaced all 4. Unfortunately, he didn't secure the wires on the 2/1 sensor (front, after mini-cat if I'm correct), and the insulation melted against the exhaust pipe, and it shorted, causing the fuse to blow (found out about the melted wire only after blowing a second fuse).
On the 2/2 sensor, the replacement was a allegedly a OEM-type, but the alignment tabs on the male/female connectors didn't align, so they were filed down on the sensor-side connector. When all of this was done, and codes cleared (plus PCM reset via battery disconnect), I was getting a recurring P0158 code. Thinking I had a bad sensor, I replaced this one again and cleared the code. It would stay off for the duration of the initial trip (whether 1 mile, or 100 miles), then the MIL comes on and the code is set again (always the same P0158).
Well the code says that sensor may be shorted to voltage, so I thought perhaps a the O2 sensor relay - so I swapped with the (same part number) horn relay, but no change. I should also say that I checked the wire-loom around the top/back of the engine by the firewall, and did find the loom starting to disintegrate, but it appeared all wires in-tact. I cleaned this up with some new loom, and put some silicon super-tape over the offending engine bolt.
I'm now at somewhat of a loss, and could use some help. From here I'm thinking I could begin tracing wires or try yet another sensor (would go Mopar part this time vs. Bosch). I'm also wondering if this could be a legitimate code in the event of a bad mini-cat, injector, etc. (high-voltage indicating running very rich?). I guess last-resort would be to take it to the stealership and take my lumps, but need to do something soon as emission inspection is due.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer.
