Re: No more Mr. Nice Guy.
I actually know exactly how you feel. When I first started aikido, I would get shut down by the higher belts. Everything would not work. Then would then give me advice, usually in a meaningless way (to a begininer) such as extend more, or relax more, or look at the wall, move with your center, etc. I would try my best to do what they asked, and it would work. One day, I had just come from judo, and was very tired and really annoyed for no real reason (probably lack of suger). I should of went home, but instead I got on the mat. I was very absent minded about my techniques, and not really listening to input. One senior student would grab my hand, I would try to move and he would shut me down. He would then give me instructions (which I was ignoring and just really wondering how much longer I had to be there) and I would do the exact same thing I just did, only he would exagerate a nice fall and say "That was much better!".
I realized this after I got home. For the next few months (this is before I stopped aikido to focus on judo) I would "test" this senior rank by never taking his advice. Every single time he would stop me, tell me I'm not doing X, I would do it the exact way I did before, and he would fall and tell me how much better I just got. It really didn't matter what I did the second time, he just wanted to think he was teaching me. I also think in his mind he was "building me up".
It was an extremely frustrating time for me. However now that I only train aikido 1 to 2 times a month, he usually does not give me advice. I have a lot more fun training there now.

Northern NY woman in fatal car wreck arrested
Woman facing multiple charges in fatal April wreck
A 40-year-old northern New York woman has been charged with manslaughter in connection with a two-car crash that killed a man in April.
Local media outlets report that Deborah Kerwin of Watertown was arrested on charges of second-degree manslaughter, reckless endangerment and failure to keep right.
The wreck on April 13 in the Lewis County town of Harrisburg killed 39-year-old Renee Beyer of Lowville.
The Lewis County Sheriff's Office said Kerwin drove into the path of Beyer's car.
Beyer was a senior planner for Lewis County.
Kerwin was arraigned and is being held at the county jail. Court officials weren't available to say if she has a lawyer or entered a plea.

Anchorage police say a man has been taken to a local hospital after he accidentally shot himself in the leg in a vehicle outside a Muldoon restaurant Thursday.
According to APD spokesperson Anita Shell, police received a call about the incident near the Red Robin restaurant at the Tikahtnu Commons mall, at 1190 N. Muldoon Rd., at 11:47 a.m.
Shell says initial reports indicate that the man was in a vehicle with his wife, child and dog when a weapon discharged.
"It looks like they were getting ready to have lunch and he shot himself in the leg," Shell said.
Medics found the man with a gunshot wound from a handgun round to his mid-thigh. Shell says there aren't any indications that the injury was life-threatening.
"It just looks like a through-and-through, so they just transported him," Shell said.
Shell says there aren't any reports of foul play in the shooting, which appears to have been a negligent discharge.

Reader Bricko revealed the identity of the journalist who filed a story on 24-Hour Fitness from his hospital bed: It's Marvin Zindler, beloved Houston TV personality, whose consumer reports often focus on rat and roach droppings, and "slime in the ice machine," found in local restaurants. [Wikipedia, YouTube]
Would you consider re-writing this story in English?
Ah, I remember Friday evening news growing up with Marvin Zindler's reports, always ending his restaurant health reviews with "Slime in the ice machine." The even had a jingle and graphics for a while.
He said, "slime in the ice machine,"
He said, "slime in the ice machine,"
Wow, this really makes me miss Houston. Marvin Zindler was something me and my grandmother would sit around to wait and watch for at nights. It's sad to say.
From the, You Know You're A Houstonian When…
"You see nothing unusual about an 80-something former sheriff's deputy who wears a white toupee and blue sunglasses, mispronounces names, allows televising of his frequent plastic surgeries, seems unnaturally obsessed with slime in the ice machine, and screams, "MAR-VIN ZIND-ler, EYE-witness news" into a television camera every night."
The delightful Marvin Zindler is a Houston (indeed a Texas) institution. He is the reported who broke the story, later made into the movie "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas." They should have let him star in it as he has more personality than can be contained on a small TV screen. Mr. Zindler is suffering from cancer these days. All of us wish him well. He is a treasure.
Huh? Revealed the iden
Huh? Revealed the identity? The anchors said it was Marvin Zindler reporting right there on the frickin clip.
Marvin is a Houston legend.
The things you think you would never miss…
THIS JUST IN: Ben Popken published this blog! More at 10.
Without intending to be sycophantic, I had never heard of Marvin Zindler until Ben linked his report and certainly did not know of his illness (which is why he reported from a hospital bed.) Indeed he's a legend and I hate that I didn't see more of him before now.
And please help me understand why only Marvin – from his hospital bed – can introduce this clip?
I believer Marvin is also the reporter who broke the real story (years ago) about a local brothel. The story eventually led to the Movie/Play "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas."
Maaaaaaaarvin Zindler, Eyyyyyyyye Witness News
@jburland: Marvin is a Houston institution and legend. He has had several bouts with bad health, even one with cancer, and has stuck with his job every step of the way. This time he has pancreatic cancer that has spread to his liver…this type of cancer has a less than 4% survival rate when caught EARLY. And his was caught much later.
For those of us living in Houston, we tune in every night to see how Marvin is doing…and it does out heart good to see him doing his report and hearing his familiar signoff. It may sound funny to those who don't live here, but his never-give-up attitude and commitment to the consumer is something that has been lost as we all become numbers instead of names in today's world.
So let's lay off Marvin…as eccentric as he is, he's ours.

A day in the life of an Eastmont Wildcat… through the eyes of a Panther
Almost every Wenatchee student knows an Eastmont High School Wildcat or two, has been on the campus, or at least attended the annual Battle of the Bridges. But how much do we actually know about the daily life of our cross-river rivals?
One major difference between Eastmont High School and Wenatchee High School is the number of students. While both schools are in the 4A division for athletics, Wenatchee has 2,164 students while Eastmont has 1,359. EHS houses grades 10-12, while the ninth-graders are a few blocks away at the junior high school.

Tropic of Cancer
by Henry Miller
Tropic of Cancer Chapter 2 Summary
- Life with Boris is good, but the poor guy is desperately afraid that his wife is going to show up and give him a hard time.
- The cleaning lady, Elsa, likes to lecture the narrator about prostitutes and syphilis. This one's a real bummer. The narrator tells us: "Everywhere a man, and then she has to leave, and then there's an abortion and then a new job and then another man and nobody gives a fuck about her except to use her" (2.9). Hmmm.
- The narrator is really fed up with all of the Germans in his neighborhood.
- He's excited about his book, though, even though he's convinced that the world is dying.
- He lapses into some memories of Tania and Sylvester, and other memories continue to float by as the narrator makes way for potential tenants to the apartment. One beautiful hot mess drops by, but she just reminds him of all of the other "Rich American cunts […]" (2.27). Miller really isn't a fan of political correctness, it seems.
- The narrator remembers the day Moldorf made a pass at Tania. Never mind that he's married to Fanny.
- He started flapping his gums about how smart and perfect Fanny is and how she's a Zionist and can make miracles with a hat and a ribbon, la de dah.
- The narrator imagines the absurdity of Moldorf's reunion with his wife, with her "Breasts like ripe red cabbage" (2.38). It's not a pretty picture.

Drones, Spies, Terrorists and Second Class Citizenship in Pakistan - A Review Essay
C. Christine Fair
Georgetown University
November 12, 2013
Small Wars and Insurgencies, 25.1
This essay reviews seven recent books and reports that focus upon the use of U.S. armed drones in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). This essay synthesizes a historical account of the program, critically interrogates key arguments and evidence advanced by the various authors, and draws attention to the particular problems that confront those who live in the FATA and the second-class citizenship that the Pakistani state has bestowed upon them for reasons of domestic and foreign policy concerns. This review essay does not intend to be the final word on any of the ongoing policy debates. But it does hope to enable a wider audience to take part in these important deliberations.

Challengers make it back on top in softball
Winning the Southern Cascade League title seemed like a pretty bold goal this spring considering the recent history of the Cascade Christian...
Tim Trower">
There was a good reason Savannah Greenwade shot out of the blocks and zoomed around the first turn in the 400 meters Friday in the Bob Newland Track and Field Classic at South Medford High.
Greenwade, of North Medford, wanted the meet record "really bad," she said.
She got it.
The sophomore, coming off an impressive showing last weekend in the Oregon Relays at Hayward Field in Eugene, lowered her time in the event for the fifth consecutive outing and snatched up the meet mark in 59.21 seconds. South Medford's Carmen Mejia had the previous record of 59.56, which she set in 2010.
Greenwade enjoyed that experience so much, she set another mark a couple hours later in the 200, winning in 26.59.
The Newland meet, in its 15th year, is for sophomores and freshmen and is designed to give young athletes a chance to perform on a big stage against kids their own ages. Sixteen teams participated.
Roseburg captured the boys meet with 103 points, followed by Grants Pass with 91 and South Medford with 70.
In the girls meet, Grants Pass triumphed with 106 points, while North Medford was second (103) and South Medford third (92.5).
The meet began under a threatening sky with a chilly breeze. Light rain fell a couple times before a downpour drenched athletes and spectators alike as a girls 800 heat was about start.
One coached seized the motivational moment with his runner: "The sooner you get done, the sooner you can get out of this," he yelled.
Darkness set in and rain alternately drizzled and dropped hard.
Greenwade was fortunate to run the 400 in as nice of weather as was available on this day.
"If this race is an hour ago," said Black Tornado coach Piet Voskes, "there may have been a different outcome. She had just enough sunshine to go out and get it."
Greenwade won her first three 400 races of the season and gradually lowered her time from 1:01.64 to 59.79.
At the Oregon Relays against strong competition, she placed seventh in 59.77.
It was off her personal best of 59.39, established last year, but it was further indication she was on the right track.
"She's physically stronger and her mechanics are a lot cleaner than last year," said Voskes. "She's coming off the turn a lot better than she ever was last year."
Voskes and Greenwade talked two weeks ago, said the coach, and made this "an objective meet."
"We looked at what that meet record was and kind of gave her a target to sit and stew over for two weeks," he said.
Greenwade handled the big meet in Eugene well, he said, and when she was nervous prior to the Newland, she was reminded that it was just a Friday night meet at South Medford.
When the gun went off, so, too, did Greenwade, overtaking foe after foe in the first 200.
"That was the most aggressive she's been in two years," said Voskes.
The question then became, how would she finish?
As she hit the last 100 meters, Greenwade's thoughts were, "I was tired," and, "It hurts, but it feels good."
In part because she's a fan of this meet.
"It was fun," she said. "This is my last year here, and this is my favorite meet. The competition is at your level. You're not competing against upperclassmen. You've got a chance at going big. It's just a lot of fun."
Voskes characterized Greenwade as one who enjoys a challenge. Clearly, she embraced it again in the 200, following the biggest downpour of the evening.
Greenwade's winning time bested the record of 26.73 set in 2011 by North Medford's Emily Carlson and matched last year by Crater's Bailey Bascom. Sage Hall of Grants Pass was second in 27.46.
"(Greenwade's) 200 has improved dramatically because of the strength work she did in the offseason," said Voskes. "She loves to compete."
Only one other meet record was established. The Grants Pass girls 4x100 relay of Lindsey Bonney, Deshae Wise, Tarisa Olinski and Sage Hall won in 50.52, breaking the mark of 50.76 set in 2010 by Roseburg.
South Medford thrower Sara Miles joined Greenwade as a double winner. Miles claimed the shot put with a heave of 35 feet, 51/2 inches and the javelin with a throw of 105-1.
Phoenix's Emma Hickman won the discus at 110-0, and Eagle Point's Marinda Stanton captured the triple jump at 33-33/4.
On the track, the North Medford 4x400 relay girls relay of Olivia Lethlean, Michala Denn, Meghan Cowan and Jaci Brumble won in 4:13.56, and St. Mary's Aessa Catt claimed the 100 in 13.18.
In the boys meet, South Medford's Bobby Chaney had a part in two victories and was second in another race.
The sprinter won the 200 in 23.31 and — teaming with Dylan Wilson, Christian Vieira and Josh Lowe — anchored the 4x100 relay that posted a winning time of 46.27. Chaney's time of 11.76 in the 100 was second to the 11.69 of Grants Pass' Mark Hubbard.
Eagle Point's Kevin Van Dyke had an impressive showing in the 3,000, winning in 9:16.30. His time was within four seconds of the meet record.
North Medford's Cameron Benton won the 300 hurdles in 43.06.
In field events, winners included Ashland's Dominic Meads in the discus (143-3) and South Medford's Josh Washington in the high jump (5-8).

Hundreds of thousands displaced by Hurricane Katrina received good news today. FEMA's new director says a top priority will be finding them homes. And as News 12 shows you, the search is going on right here in the CSRA.
"We are going to get people out of shelters and move on and get them the help they need," said David Paulison.
Two days into the job and acting director for FEMA David Paulison is ready to move. Move 200,000 mobile homes down to the Gulf Coast.
"All I know is the guy just called and said we wanna know what kind of inventory you have, what size it is and how quickly you can have it down here," said Scott Brinson, Aiken Housing Center.
These questions are being asked by FEMA all over to mobile home retailers like Scott Brinson. The agency prefers singlewide homes with air and heat, also furniture, all falling under $28,000.
Brinson only has a couple on his lot. But next door…
"We've got about 20 RV's that fall in the realm of what they're looking for, about 10 single section homes we can help them out with," said Trey Ledbetter, Ledbetter Housing Center.
And if FEMA likes Ledbetter's selling price, these new homes are ready to hit the road.
But with a mass exodus of RV's and manufactured homes, the lot could soon be close to an empty lot and that could mean a strain on customers and businesses in the area.
More than 200 people come visit this center every month and restocking could take 3-4 months.
"It gives us a sense of satisfaction, helping people, we also feel like by doing the right thing it will come back to us in the long run," Ledbetter said.
In the meantime, he's asking his customers to be patient so others can have a home.
Ledbetter should know in the next 7-10 days if FEMA decides to buy from him. Overall, FEMA is trying to put 300,000 households together. 100,000 right now are in hotels, motels and rental areas.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
So we adopted a cat from CSA (Dr. Blease in Stewartsville) for Christmas. He's a great cat, friendly and affectionate, always uses the litter box- even our other cat, #1 has grown to like him. Ok, so we got him home and noticed he had a cough. I called CSA and they prescribed him Ammoxicylin (sp?) over the phone. He was supposed to go back 1 month after the adoption for his distemper update. He was still coughing and I had called, the stupid receptionist told me to wait for his appointment. So we arrive on the schedule day at the scheduled time and another receptionist tells me, "You didn't adopt #2" and I'm like what?!? He's in the cat carrier with me. Well apparently these idiots screwed up paper work and STILL don't know which cat I really adopted. So she was nice about it and said she thought it was this other cat "X" who was a female with similar yet DIFFERENT markings! I said there's no way that is the cat that I have. So this other lady, a technician/nurse or whatever walks by and says "I don't see what the big deal is anyway." All snotty-like. So I reply, "Well, I would like to know as much of the cats medical history as possible, what if it has lukemia or kitty AIDS?" {She assured me all of their cats are tested- even though they can't find a piece of paper}. Yes, I was upset, but still calm and reasonable at this point.
So I decide it really doesn't matter, we love the cat regardless. Go in to see the doctor, some lady, not Dr. Blease b/c it was a Saturday. So she won't give #2 his distemper booster because of his cough and prescribes yet more antibiotics and tells me that they're good for him even if he doesn't really need them. I don't know what medical school she went to but antibiotic over-use = antibiotic resistance! Anyway, still calm I go to leave and the tell me it's $60. Now, I was expecting this distemper booster to be no charge as it was supposed to be included in the adoption fee. So I apologize and ask them to send me the bill. Upon which the "what's the big deal lady" becomes agitated with me and even less friendly than previously. I explain that I was expecting no charge blah blah blah and she tells me that I would have been charged for the distemper and doesn't know who would've told me that it would be no charge (it was her 1 month previously that told me that!!!) Because of the situation and her unpleasant attitude I am now in tears because I don't have the money at the moment and not to mention the adoption papers also say that if the cat needs any medicine in the 1st 30 days that it's no charge! I end up sending my boyfriend in to pay her or tell her to piss off. He paid her, I don't care at this point I couldn't deal.
So I get over this- I was going to call Dr. Blease and inform him of my discontent with the situation, but decided not to waste my time and move on. I give #2 another week of meds and now our first cat, #1 is coughing, and #2 hasn't stopped. So at this point we make an appointment at our regular vet- Warren Animal Hospital. The night before we're going I look at #2 and his eye is all bloodshot. So we go to the vet. They're stumped about his eye because it's burst blood vessels in his iris (the colored part) and his 3rd eyelid is closing over his eye and he really can't hold it open. Long story short: we're at the vet 2 1/2 hours. They suggested he be tested for Lukemia and some other awful things because of the whole paperwork mix up (i.e., incompetence) at the other office. Well, #2 has feline Leukemia! It's basically a death sentence. 80% of cats with FeLV die within the first 2-3yrs. 20% make it to 8-9yrs. That's what's up with his eye. FeLV essentially is like HIV in people. It makes it so that the cat is much more likely to get sick and its very hard for their immune system to fight the illness, even with antibiotics.
#1 tested negative on Friday but needs to go back in 2weeks for a FeLV vaccine booster shot and then again for another test. By the way, none of this is cheap.
It wasn't cheap to adopt #2 and all this testing and antibiotics aren't cheap either!
So Saturday morning we went to Dr. Blease's office and spoke with him for about an hour, holding up his other appointments about all of this baloney. He was very kind and understanding and might I add, professional. Although, the lady with the attitude overheard me informing the Dr. of her inappropriate attitude and she had the nerve to come into the room, point her finger in my face and tell me that I was the one with the attitude. I simply said, We are having an adult conversation about this situation, you interrupted me and I do not appreciate that. Dr. B told her to leave. So she proceeded to stomp and huff around the office until we left.
Now, Dr Blease offered to refund our adoption fee ($150) and the $60 from the 2nd visit (should have been no charge no matter how you figure). We told him to keep it and that it wouldn't change a thing. We still have a sick cat, have put our other very healthy cat at risk and will no doubt have medical costs in the future because of this. What we really wanted was to prevent this from happening again. He told us they are re-testing the cats there, and having staff meeting s on how to deal with customers.
The whole thing really sucks, is upsetting. I work in public service and no matter how shitty a customer of mine ever is you don't give them an attitude back. I really wonder if that lady has a guilty conscience about mixing up the paperwork or she just can't handle her job. Maybe her husband beats her- I don't know.
Dr. B told us that if they had known he had FeLV he would have been relocated to a kitty nursing home to live his days- this is probably BS but he certainly shouldn't have been up for adoption.
I feel sorry for the animals there and anyone who's had a similar experience! Please just take this as a warning and get your new pets examined but your own vet!!! I will still donate food to them, it's not right to punish the animals because the people who work there are stupid, incompetent!!!!!

Our newly adopted sweet kitty was laid to rest on March 25,just 3months and 3days since we adopted him. Yes, he was feLv positive ,and he also had FIP (feline infectious perionitis) which is almost more fatal than the feLv! He had hemmoraging and edema in his eyes and was beggining to develop fluid in his chest (result of the FIP). He refused to eat starting on 3/23 and retreated to underneath the couch, as a way of saying he only wanted a dark quiet place to slip away from his pain. I knew though, that he wouldn't slip away peacefully and made the dreadful decision to euthanize him. I know that was the best decision I could have made for him.
I stopped in at CSA to notify Dr. Blease of the end result of our situation. I noticed that the cats' cages were labeled differently, a direct result of the mistake that led us to adopt a cat with feLv. My hopes were that the office changed their practices so this sort of thing wouldn't happen again. As far as the nasty staff member, she was still there although avoided me like the plague.
Dr. Blease suggested that when we were ready to 'replace' the cat that we return to CSA and adopt a cat from them, 'a healthy one this time'. THat is still up for debate and discussion.
YES, people make mistakes, it is part of this human condition. It is only a terrible thing if we do not learn from them!
In 3 short months we spent a total of $630 in medical bills alone and even more importantly, we fell so deeply in love with this precious little kitten who taught us several lessons about ourselves, about humanity and about unconditional love.
We still are unsure if our first cat contracted the feLv, she will be restested in another month. As for now, we're missing our precious sick little buddy...he will forever leave a hole in my heart.

Researchers Wrestle with When to Make...
Researchers from Michigan State University and Oakland University in Rochester, MI, discovered how leptin, a fat cell-derived hormone, may aid in the progression of colon cancer. They found that the hormone induced precancerous colon cells to increase production of a growth factor that enhances blood supply to early cancer cells promoting tumor growth and cancer progression.
The results appear in a paper called "Novel Mechanism for Obesity-induced Colon Cancer Progression" published in Carcinogenesis. The scientists studied leptin, which regulates body energy and is higher in obese individuals and has been linked to colon cancer. While leptin promotes angiogenesis in adipose tissue, it is unknown whether it can induce epithelial cells to produce factors that may drive angiogenesis, vascular development, and therefore cancer progression.
The scientists set out to compare the effects of leptin-stimulated colon epithelial cells on angiogenesis. The cells were taken from two mouse models, which differed in adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) genotype, which is the gatekeeper tumor suppressor gene for colon cancer. They used ex vivo rat mesenteric capillary bioassay and human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) models to study angiogenesis.
Cells from the mice that carried the Apc mutation when stimulated with leptin produced significantly more vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) than the cells from the other mouse model, according to the investigators. Leptin treatment induced dose-dependent increases in VEGF only in the mice with the Apc genotype. The enhanced capillary formation was blocked by the addition of a neutralizing antibody against VEGF.
These cells also had higher HUVEC cell proliferation, chemotaxis, upregulation of adhesion proteins, and cell-signaling activation resulting in nuclear factor kappa B nuclear translocation and DNA binding due to VEGF.
These findings show that leptin can induce preneoplastic colon epithelial cells to orchestrate VEGF-driven angiogenesis and vascular development.

120 Minute Running Time
Friday October 29 at 8pm and Saturday, October 30 at 7pm & 930pm
MHSF's cool kick-ass sponsors:
Dale's Pale Ale, The Onion, Comedy Works and Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey
Friends! Romans! Countrymen! Let's drink some beers!
Head to the thrift store and find the perfect Kevin-Bacon-in-Footloose clothes because it is time for Mile High Sci-Fi's annual Halloween SHOW! FRIDAY 10/29 @ 8, SATURDAY 10/30 @ 7 & 9:30 (our website, as usual, has the wrong times. Ignore it, as usual)
This year's target is Howling III: Marsupials. Guaranteed you have not seen it and once you do you'll understand why. The third (duh) installment of the highly-overrated Howling series, Howling III adds an oddly-disturbing twist. Set in Australia, the human-wolves that wreaked silly havoc in the first two have now apparently cross-bred with kangaroos. Yep. Wolves and people with pouches!! Think about it. This means that at some point in the genetic chain, one of the wolf men mated with a kangaroo. I mean, we've all been drunk and lonely before, but sheesh... What is Australian for "yuk"?
If you are worried that it is a scary movie, fear not. It is far and away the least frightening fright film ever made. No joke. Footloose is scarier than this trainwreck.
Our buddy Jake Norris, Distiller-in-Chief at Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey is joining us in the back. Is he funny? We think so but really, who cares, he makes whiskey!!!
You MUST be dressed as a movie character to enter and we're doing it all three shows. This years prizes are unbelievable. They include a year long pass to Mile High Sci-Fi, VIP tours of the Oskar Blues Brewery and Stranahan's distillery, beer, whiskey, t-shirts, Onion merch, Comedy Works tickets and a gently used copy of Howling III.
Be there!

Q/A: Alexandra Wrage On The New FIFA Governance Committee
Alexandra Wrage, the founder and president of Trace International, was appointed to serve on the Independent Governance Committee of the Federation Internationale de Football Association earlier this month. The committee, which is chaired by Mark Pieth, the head of the OECD's Working Group on Bribery, was created in the wake of a wave of bribery allegations involving FIFA, most recently related to bids for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups and the election of its president in June 2011. The committee met for the first time in Switzerland last week. We interviewed Wrage recently about the committee's work.
How did you get involved with the committee? How much time does it take up?
Mark Pieth invited me to participate. We'll meet at regular intervals, but the work between meetings will be substantial too. This is a big, challenging and ambitious project, but it's a great team with a lot of experience and energy.
Are you and the other members of the committee being paid by FIFA?
The other members of the IGC are being paid professional fees and expenses by FIFA, through a trust account managed by the Basel Institute of Governance. I declined any fees or reimbursement of expenses. This sort of compliance work is squarely within TRACE's non-profit mission to increase transparency and so we decided it was an appropriate project to accept on a pro bono basis. As a general rule, we decline funding from any source outside our membership.
What do you think about Transparency International dropping out of the process?
I read and understand their position, but I think it's unfortunate. The team and the process were still shaping up when they made their decision to pull out. I think they would be impressed by the commitment of the group.
The committee had its first meeting last week, can you give us any details about what was discussed?
We finalized our charter and procedural issues – which are more interesting than they sound given FIFA's structure – and outlined next steps.
Just how big is FIFA's problem?
Everyone has read the different allegations that have played out in the media. The committee has ambitious goals and we're not at all interested in "rubber stamping" our way through this.
How long do you expect this process to take?
We've really just started. Give us a few more months and we should have a better sense of the overall time-frame.
Should those who committed misconduct in the past face punishment? Would the committee recommend such punishment?
Fairly early on in the process, we're going to assess FIFA's response to allegations of past wrongdoing. The IGC is not a law enforcement body, of course, but we won't hesitate to recommend further investigations if appropriate.
Why do you think FIFA has not developed an adequate governance structure?
The organization evolved pretty organically, even haphazardly, over a long period. The question is almost backwards – if you use the analogy to corporations, the question would be "what prompted the company to build a compliance or governance structure"? Most multinationals, for example, take governance and compliance seriously only after they have lived through a reputational crisis.
In a recent op-ed in the Financial Times, Mark Pieth said, "the committee is going to make strong and explicit recommendations to Fifa. We are optimistic but not naïve. We expect considerable resistance." Has that resistance started to manifest?
No – I think Mark was referring to possible resistance to some of our ultimate recommendations – this is sensitive work – but there has been no resistance to the group or its work so far.
At what point will you say "our work is finished"?
That's a great question and I don't have a good answer. Let's see how things go.

Accused impersonator gets 3 years in Denton Co. case
Stephan Antwain Pittman, who made headlines last year when he was accused of impersonating NFL quarterback Vince Young in an alleged fraud scheme, probably won't be in the media spotlight for a while.
A Denton County district judge recently sentenced him to three years in prison for violating the terms of his probation for a 2009 sexual assault case in that county.
Pittman, 33, was thrust from obscurity into the media spotlight in September when he arrested in Washington, D. C. Authorities said he posed as Young in Maryland and the nation's capital to scam people out of nearly $30,000.
The out-of-state arrest violated the terms of Pittman's five-year probation and he was brought back to Denton County where he has been in jail since October.
He pleaded guilty on Jan. 13 to sexual assault and was sent directly to prison.
Both Young and his agent were pleased with the outcome of the case, according to Jamie Beck, First Assistant Denton County District Attorney.

If it would be true, the carriers could give it away for free on a 35 GBP / month contract. Instead, I think Nokia asks about as much as Samsung does for the Galaxy S II.
quote: On the other, they are frustrated by the position Nokia / Microsoft puts them in. They have to ask the same price for Lumia 900 as they do for something like a Galaxy S II but they can't keep a straight face when asked which is the better phone. Even worse, they would need to actively con a customer into buying a Windows Phone device knowing their effort could backfire with common people who can easily be flamed with hardware related arguments that their new and expensive Windows Phone is crap compared with a year old Galaxy S II.

Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids that Probably Don't Apply to You
I think Bryan Caplan and I are homing in on the core of our disagreement.
I don't believe I "admit that my parenting style noticeably reduces the cost of kids," as Bryan says. Let me lay out the first part of my argument again, but a bit more ploddingly this time. First, we begin a presumption that individuals rationally pursue their goals given their constraints. Now, I agree with Bryan that the economist's rationality assumption does not mean that "everyone will be perfectly rational as long as the price of irrationality is high." In particular, certain false beliefs may prevail. And this is Bryan's hypothesis: that women (who, rape aside, really do control family size) systematically overestimate the cost of the marginal child. But (and this is the second step) we ought to believe both that (a) the likelihood of false belief declines as the cost of acting on false beliefs rise, and that (b) the likelihood of false belief declines as access to education and reliable information increases.
Well, as women have gained in liberty, opportunity, and socio-economic equality, the value of what must be forgone in order to have one more child has increased. That's (a). And women have enjoyed rapid gains in education and access to reliable information. That's (b). Women thus have become increasingly less likely to be acting on false beliefs about the costs and benefits of the marginal child. And as women have become ever less likely to act on false beliefs about the costs and benefits of the marginal child, they have chosen to have fewer children. A corollary conclusion is that women were more likely to have larger families when they were more likely to have false beliefs about the costs and benefits of the marginal child.
I don't think persistent systemic bias is unreasonable, but it seems plain to me that the bias would tend to be in the direction of additional rather than fewer children. We should expect evolution to select for cognitive biases and affective illusions that increase family size. And we live in a natalist culture that is sentimental about children, romantic about motherhood, and generally celebratory of the traditional nuclear family. This is why it's not at all surprising that, as Bryan reports, people say they want more kids than they actually have. Talk is cheap, but it's also culture-bound, so self-reports tend to bias toward cultural ideals. Anyway, Bryan provides no non-anecdotal evidence about the actual prevalence of the "nurture myth," nor any serious empirically-informed assessment of its role in women's decisions to become pregnant and have children. In particular, he offers us no cause to believe that the effect of the nurture myth, whatever it is, offsets the pro-natalist biases of evolution and our culture.
Thus it seems plausible that not only are women less likely than ever to be acting on false beliefs about the costs and benefits of children, but that to the extent they do act on false beliefs, these produce more rather than fewer children.
The second part of my argument concerned the usefulness of Bryan's advice. Before I get into it, let me say that I was wrong to label Bryan a "genetic determinist." The behavioral genetics literature leaves ample room for the influence of non-family environmental factors, and implies, as Bryan puts it elsewhere, not genetic determinism but "parental irrelevantism."
Now, there is a clear tension between the behavioral genetics literature and the assumption, implicit in Bryan's argument, that parenting style is susceptible to significant modification, and I don't see that Bryan has addressed this problem. Parenting style is likely a reflection of personality, and personality is largely genetically determined. This suggests advice like Bryan's will have at best a very small effect on parenting behavior, and thus the "discount" to be had from trying to adopt Serenity Parenting will be non-existent to small for most people. Given that the discount is likely so small, if it tilts anybody into "buying" an extra child, there's a good chance something else would have tilted them in that direction sooner or later.
But maybe not. I'm not arguing that nobody's going to name their baby after Bryan Caplan. Rather, my claim is that Bryan presents his thesis as if it broadly applicable, when in fact it applies only to a surprisingly narrow part of his potential audience. It applies mainly to
- middle-and-upper class couples who
- already have at least one child,
- are on the fence about having another one,
- have been overestimating the costs of an additional child, and
- have the right personalities to effectively practice "serenity parenting."
If that's not you, then Bryan's argument doesn't really pertain to you. But if that is you, you might as well get crackin'!

Bill of Sale Requirements in Kansas
The Basics
A bill of sale is similar to a receipt; it shows the amount of money paid for a vehicle, the seller's name, the buyer's name and can even record such information as the odometer reading and any terms related to the sale.
Proof of Purchase Price
In Kansas, the DMV has an Affidavit of Purchase Price to use in the transfer or sale of a motor vehicle. There is also the required Odometer Disclosure Statement (Form TR-59) that must accompany any vehicle 10 years old or newer.
Clear Title
You also need to be sure that the back of the title has the signature and hand printed names of both buyer and seller. The purchase price of the vehicle should also be listed on the title.
Quiet Title Action
It is of the utmost importance that you get a clear title, with all paperwork completed and the title signed off in the correct places. If you are on your way to meet a seller, have a copy of the Affidavit of Purchase or a blank bill of sale to complete.
It is strongly suggested that you make sure you have all of your paperwork in place before you and the seller finalize the sale. If you purchase a vehicle from a private party and later discover that there is a problem with the necessary forms or the title, and you cannot locate the seller, you must begin the process for a "quiet title action."
A Court Order May Be Required
You will need to go to court and request that the judge issue a court order to the Department of Revenue, so that they may change the title of the vehicle. This process may take up to several weeks to complete. During the waiting time, it will not be legal for you to drive the vehicle.
Out of State Purchase
If you purchase a vehicle from a business or from a private party located outside of Kansas, you'll need the Affidavit of Purchase form to be completed.
Generic Bill of Sale
To assist you in finding a form, we provide links to generic forms from our sponsors.

Fall, my friends. Fall.
I've determined that Nashville is probably one of the best cities you could be in for fall time (except I think NYC would be perfect in the fall, but it's not fair to compare anything to New York). Being at Trevecca means you get to eat up every bit of that fallness that Nashville has to offer. There's just something festive in the air and we all know it. Clear skies, chilly nights, good coffee, sweaters, and finding those perfect songs that just sound like fall = my favorites.
My friends and I went and got pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks yesterday…in honor of the season. It was nice to get away for just a bit and just enjoy the moment. Sometimes you have to say "no" to the million things that may very well be more "important" at the time…for the sake of a little peace of mind.

I work in the telecom industry with about 35 tech's working for me...needless to say, we use our drills and installer bits nonstop. This grinder was the right price and with literally 10 minutes from box to use was perfect to sharpen about 60 drill bits, reshape industry specific tools, and help remove a bit of rust from some angle iron that we have some future plans for. The grinder has plenty of power, never bogging down even with some extreme pressure put on it, very smooth, and absolutely no vibration (I was a bit surprised as every other HF power tool I've ever use suffered this problem.) I couldn't be happier with the purchase. You could spend hundreds on at another store or you can get this little powerhouse and be extremely satified and a matter of minutes. This is seriously one to the best buys I've ever aquired at HF!

My only complaint is finding vitreous replacement wheels (stones) in both grits with the right arbor size. Also excessive dressing of the new wheels was required to make it run smooth. After ruining a Harbor Freight dressing tool it runs like a top. So you will need to buy a $7 item to make this work like a very good grinder should. This is not uncommon with other machines. It has adequate power, seems mechanically well balanced for the price, and runs very well. Replacement wheels are hard to find in both grits. A Harbor Freight wheel works best. The wheels with concentric adaptors do not work well with this at all. So brand new after balance dressing both wheels it ran very nicely with very mininal vibration. The home made stand will vibrate some, and the stand will move around some, but this is the best machine for under $500 that has been on this stand. There is a shuddering at low speed as it winds down. At running spped it is very smooth. The guards are cheesy, but I would never rely on those anyway. Once you have dressed the wheels and got them balanced it runs great. Buy two dressing tools, one will be worn out when you get this dialed in. Again for the money and with some minor tweaking a great running functional item I use often in making guitar parts, and doing other grinding jobs. The bearings are a tad loose and it has a resonant speed at which it really shudders, but it is not the running speed.

Plenty good for my needs
By Pete
from Peoria, IL
Just needed a grinder for general purpose grinder, wire wheel and buffing tasks. Plenty of power for my needs, which are not heavy duty at all. Ran really smooth out of the box. I don't have it bolted down and it stays put. The included stones were decent enough to start out with. The tool rests are on the flimsy side, but functional for light duty. The included bulb was trashed. Fitted with LED bulb which works great. Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase and would recommend, at least for light duty. 5 Star HF product.

I use the grinder for general machine shop use. Grinding tool bits, chamfer for welding.The Grinder has plenty of power for what I use it for.In the bitter cold it comes up to speed slowly, but after running for awhile works great.A good buy for sure. The wheels that came with it work good for my shop.

By D

Written months after purchase:Researched all brands available, and decided to give this grinder a go. Been using this machine as a buffer, pretty much full-time (all day, every day). It's quiet. It hasn't become too hot. Gets up to speed quickly. Arbors seem true. I would say the output rating is accurate. No complaints here, especially considering the price, as well as knowing what else is out there, at higher prices. I do't think you'll find better bang for your buck. Read the reviews of the name brands. Compare the specs. This isn't the prettiest grinder, but I'd say it's a solid workhorse, and probably a "best buy" for the $0-$300 range.
Thought I would try it for the price!!!
By RDB
from harrisonburg VA.
I was a little leary with the vibration issues that people were mentioning in reviews. Got it home and fired it up. It does vibrate, but not as bad as the name brand one I use at work. The rest,s are flimsy, again look at the price and make some heavier ones. It starts slow, once going I grinded prety hard on it and it did,nt bog down. If thats a issue slow down. I think it will do fine in my shop.

Early this morning, Starbucks-owned Seattle's Best Coffee announced that it's about to plant 15 of its brand-new mini-drive-thrus throughout Dallas-Fort Worth in coming weeks. The North Texas roll-out comes only a few months after Starbucks debuted the concept in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood.
The release doesn't say where Starbucks is opening the new drive-thrus, which will serve coffee (natch) and food, only why: "We're offering a fast, friendly and delicious coffee experience that fits the lives of Dallas-area commuters," says Frank Sica, vice president and general manager for Seattle's Best Coffee. Heh — when the Seattle locations opened in November, news accounts noted how "pedestrians and bicyclists can walk up to the drive-through window, adjacent to the sidewalk." Guess it's all about context: Seattle's one of America's most bike-friendly cities, and Dallas is … well, not.
The release does not that SBC expects to hire 150 folks to run these drive-thrus, where all items — including "hearty egg sandwiches and pretzel melts" — will be priced below $5. A job fair's on the schedule for some time in April.
"Seattle's Best Coffee is dedicated to becoming an integral part of the local community through job creation and development," says Sica in this morning's announcement. "Texas has long been a part of our expansion plan and we are thrilled to finally bring Dallas-Fort Worth partners on board."

|Model-Based Approach to Security Test Automation
|November 01, 2002
|Security functional testing is a costly activity typically performed by security evaluation laboratories. These laboratories have struggled to keep pace with increasing demand to test numerous product variations. This paper summarizes the results of applying a model-based approach to automate security functional testing. The approach involves developing models of security function specifications (SFS) as the basis for automatic test vector and test driver generation. In the application, security properties were modeled and the resulting tests were executed against Oracle and Interbase database engines through a fully automated process. The findings indicate the approach, proven successful in a variety of other application domains, provides a cost-effective solution to security functional testing.

Cash-Rich Symantec On M&A, Growth And Technology
The proliferation of mobiles, laptops, smartphones, netbooks and soon the iPad, combined with more diffuse corporate networks due to cloud competing, is changing the IT security landscape.
Dow Jones Investment Banker caught up with John Brigden, Senior Vice President, EMEA, from leading U.S. security firm Symantec, to discuss how the information security world is changing to meet new networking demands.
Analysts have penciled in fairly flat top line growth for the next few years for Symantec, while operating income is expected to increase due to control of the Sales, General & Administration line. Meanwhile, the company has more than $2 billion in cash while also having a net cash position. In common with many U.S. companies some of this cash will be retained in Europe, as it would incur tax should it be repatriated to the U.S.
Here are key excerpts from the interview:
"The market breaks down into five main areas; data protection and archiving, data loss prevention, storage and virtualization, security and compliance. In the case of Symantec, it has undertaken M&A either to get into new markets, such as Veritas, or to acquire new technology such as Message Labs (a European acquisition), Vantu and Altiris.
"Compliance has become a new market, and recognizing which data can be deleted and which can't, is a growing issue. In some companies, it can get to the stage where 90% of data stored is spam, or duplicate documents because of legal worries about deleting data. Given the rate of high rate of data growth in a company this represents around two years worth of storage capacity."
Device Proliferation:
"Corporates and consumers are seeing many more devices attached to the network, so traditional security services have had to be expanded to include data prioritization, synchronize devices and undertake back up. Data is valued as much, if not more, than the equipment.
"At the corporate level, people are wanting to use their own devices and being given their own budgets to buy equipment. So users are moving away from equipment issued by the corporate, which in turn changes how office security needs to be configured."
New Technology:
"In the past security software used to check data against known threats, or signatures, but this can be time consuming. Now the software also looks for genus based signatures, which have a family resemblance to known threats. Another method is to use reputational based signatures, where data is let in if it comes from good source, is if it matches previously positively checked content."
Data Protection and Storage Efficiency:
"Data can now be tracked and managed via a set of defined policies. For example, financial data can be separated from other data, or it can be de-duplicated so it's held in a secure place. So if a user tries to send out a spreadsheet, which carries hidden salary or credit card details, the system will either block that email, or send an alert to the management system."

For those who would like to engage a group of students in reading and writing for KidSpirit, please e-mail us to find out more about collaborating with the KidSpirit Editorial Board. Our goal is to engage as many kids as possible in the process of sharing and growing in a community with their peers around the globe. As youth leaders and parents, you can facilitate the development of the young adolescents you know by encouraging them to submit their work to KidSpirit Magazine and become members of KidSpirit Online. You are our partners in this process and we look forward to hearing from you!
Believe it or not, many of KidSpirit's readers are adults — adults who find themselves enriched by its content. Parents may feel drawn to the authentic and inspiring content on its own terms. Each quarterly theme contains a rich variety of articles and no shortage of thought-provoking topics to talk over with your kids.
In addition to the many articles and creative contributions from kids, each of our issues features an article by an adult who is a leading authority in our theme. Our PerSpectives articles feature some of the country's foremost writers and thinkers on ethical and spiritual questions. Go to the KidSpirit PerSpectives page to read the essays by all of our adult authors. Share the articles with the kids in your life, or quietly enjoy them yourselves — we won't tell!

If you connect to the router via an ethernet cable, then yes, that's all
you need to do. If it is connected via USB, then it may or may not
work. You may need drivers, if they are available.
