Skip to comments.Israeli Election - Live Thread
Posted on 03/27/2006 9:12:18 PM PST by furquhart
I'm probably a little early, but I see on Fox that they're already showing the ritual votes of the leaders, etc.
It's just past 7am in Tel Aviv, I think. Polls won't close for a while.
Can't be that early, Zogby shows Kerry by double digits.
I figured it was later than that.
Well, pull, whatever.
My prediction - Kadmia first, Likud a surprise in second - perhaps a closer second than expected.
The anti-withdrawal position, the hard line, strikes me as a classic poor polling question.
Following the elections with interest.
OH Israelis news list ping leaderrssssssss
Greater Israel is out, the Wall is in, dealing with the Palestinians is out, a unilateral "resolution" is in, and this election really doesn't matter much. Isreal's realistic choices are basically plan A and plan A. Sure, bombing the nukes is Iran is an option, but that wasn't a campaign issue. In short, the election doesn't matter much, and thus the ennui.
Elections matter more often than they don't.
If Hamas forms a government, the greater victory for Israel will be a large defunding of the PA.
I'm an annexationist/explusionist. But, alas, it seems to be off the table these days.
Yep, but I revert to my post. Even Likud really doesn't want the West Bank. They want to play Clint Eastwood for a better deal. But there won't be any deal - none, nada. The Palestininas plan to await demographic developments.
Is this your way of saying that the guys the Freepers like most are going to have a poor showing?
Elections 2006
"High alert: 85 terror warnings"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Defense establishment declares highest state of alert: Police, IDF prepare to thwart terror attacks, escort high-ranking officials to polling stations; authorities contending with 14 concrete terror warnings, 22,000 police officers to be deployed across nation
Efrat Weiss
As Israelis prepare to cast their ballots Tuesday, police forces across the country have declared the highest state of alert, as the defense establishment is dealing with 85 terror warnings, 14 of them concrete.
Islamic Jihad is the prime culprit and intends to carry out attacks using the group's terror cells in the northern West Bank, officials
Probably, but it really doesn't matter whether the showing is good or bad. The policy options are just not there. Kadima will probably rather easily form a coalition for plan A, the same plan Likud would pursue sub silento, with more noise.
"I'm an annexationist/explusionist. But, alas, it seems to be off the table these days."
Since there's not much election news yet....
Do mean expanding beyond the West Bank? Beyond Gaza?
Works for me.
Well, ideally, I'd love to see a Greater Israel pushed into the Sinai, Syria, Jordan, etc, with the Moslem residents physically expelled.
But, at a minimum, I'd like to see Judea and Samaria annexed and the Moslems expelled.
Population transfer is hardly the same thing as extermination. Especially given the explusion of other Jewish communities in the Middle East and the reality of Islamic aggression.
I started ranting about getting a Wall about 4 years before Sharon on this very site. It seemed just so well, obvious. There was NO other way out of the box. And so it goes.
They may have to wait very long in that case according to a new demographics study indicating erroneous/fraudulent data on Pali population:
West Bank/Gaza demographic study: The 1.5 million population gap.
One good programme... in principle. I just cannot see neither political will for its implementation in any Israeli party worth of the name, nor conditions which could do it possible. Alas.
The UN factbook says the ferility in Gaza is the highest in the world, about 7, and around 5 or so on the West Bank. Maybe it is wrong, but I doubt if it is that wrong. Plus, Israel is going to get relatively rather few Jewish immigrants going forward. They have sucked that well rather dry.
Judea and Samaria are the Weat Bank.
From the press release:
The research team discovered:
Fewer births: PA Ministry of Health birth reports were substantially lower than the number predicted by the PBS.
Lower Fertility Rates: Palestinian fertility rates declined from the mid-90s through 2003, according to PA Ministry of Health, consistent with the trend occurring in other Middle Eastern Arab societies.
Net Emigration: Instead of the large immigration originally projected by the PA, the Territories experienced a steady net emigration averaging 10,000 a year.
Double Counting: 210,000 Jerusalem Arabs who are already counted in Israels population survey were included in the PA survey.
Inclusion of non-residents: Palestinians with IDs living abroad for over one year were included in the PA Census & Projection.
Internal migration: 150,000 PA Arabs who have legally relocated to Israel since 1993 are still counted by the PA..
I meant the "CIA" factbook. My error.
A link to a map and discussion of Judea and Samaria.
I absolutely agree with you, and I get villified for it on a daily basis. Most folks already know my vote (Kadima).
"I started ranting about getting a Wall about 4 years before Sharon on this very site. It seemed just so well, obvious. There was NO other way out of the box. And so it goes."
The first to have the idea...maybe when you posted about it -perhaps it got back to Sharon.
"Judea and Samaria are the Weat Bank."
Thank you for that.
Polls close at 10 PM local time. In the States you will start to see results Tuesday evening. Final numbers of mandates will be known by Wednesday or Thursday.
My expectation is Kadima winning, Labour second, Likud and Yisrael Beitenu will be very close for a distant third. The last Maagar Mohot poll showed Likud fourth (12 seats). Of course, Yisrael Beitenu is the right as well.
Great link - thanks.
Yep, and with no jobs and no big pay-out from the West, they might just want to be moving along. The main reason there are as many so-called Palestinians as there are was the presence of Israeli enterprise and jobs.
Prime Minister Sharon was a late adopter of separation. It really became a national discussion when Ehud Barak adopted it in his waning days in office. His famous fall, 2000 "Us over here, them over there" speech (which much of the left called racist) was the real beginning, though some (like Uzi Dayan) were talking about the idea even earlier.
Indeed, any such attempt would yield international intervention on the Palestinian side, much as we saw in Kosovo. That is not a prospect I would relish.
I'll be happy with keeping the major settlement blocs, the Jewish enclave in Hebron and the settlement in the Hebron hills (which Avi Dichter claimed Kadima would keep), and that we contain the Palestinians and minimize their ability to cause harm.
Well the US has "open" borders.
That hasn't worked terribly well, has it?
Well it is a mixed bag. But if the red meaters really get their wish (which they won't but whatever), where will they go? I think if I were one of them, somewhere in New Jersey might be just the ticket, with a plan to move maybe to Florida, with the ulimate destination, Beverly Hills. Ya, it is filled with Persian Jews these days, but whatever.
OK, take it all over, and go with the 59% that is no doubt as accurate as the speed of light.
"Ehud Barak adopted it in his waning days in office. His famous fall, 2000 "Us over here, them over there" speech"
I didnt know that - did it already include the idea of doing it without Palestinian cooperation?
---they might just want to be moving along.
Well the US has "open" borders.---
I had more in mind Egypt or Syria somplace.
I'm sure their Muslim brothers will take care of them. :^)
The Kahanists use in it in order to promote their favored policy, i.e. expulsion of the Arabs that remained in Israel after the War of Independence and the Six Day War.
The Peaceniks and doves use it-much more successfully-as a boogymen to scare Israeli voters into ceding ever-more territory-without any corresponding concessions from the Arabs-lest the Jewish State embrace "Apartheid."
Arab-Muslims use it in order to intimidate Israel, and make the success of their perpetual jihad seem like a fait accompli.
In other words, all sides distort and exploit statistical data in order to promote their particular political agenda.
Ya, the Wall and unilateralism is the only way. However, I doubt Sharon would split Jerusalem without some real payment in kind. The devil is in the details, and I dont know about this Olmert fellow.
Yes of course. I hope this finds you well.

I thought I had my RSS problems all worked out, but now there's a new one: "RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: Operation timed out after 10 seconds with 0 bytes received"
I have no idea what this is or how to correct it. Help, please?
Do you have an URL for the volunteer helpers to use to see this in action?
On a whim, I checked a site from one of your other topics here. That site is painfully slow, but eventually the RSS finally did manage to load. Took a couple minutes though. If you're trying to pull the feed from a feed reader or something I would definitely not be surprised if that feed reader gave up earlier.
Perhaps check with your host to see if your server is having issues?
Thanks & sorry, it's http://smallbones.ca/blog/ as you've discovered. My host said my site was using up too much whatever last week, so I guess it's connected with them. I set up WP Super Cache, so I was hoping that the slow load problem had disappeared. Unless you have another idea, I'll check with them in the morning. How quickly does Super Cache work?
WP Super Cache starts working immediately. In viewing the source of your page, I can see it is working from the comments at the bottom.
One place to start would be to (temporarily) switch your theme back to Default and disable all the plugins. Does that speed anything up? Then switch the theme back and test after enabling each plugin to see if you can spot one that is slowing everything down.
If, at Default and no plugins, it is still very slow then you definitely need to talk to your hosting company.
Thanks again, Chris! I'll get on it in the morning as I just can't do any more right now. It's been a long & difficult day!
It's taken a long time, but my host finally removed whatever it was. I did most of what you suggested, Chris, then gave up as it took so long. I sent one last e-mail to the host & finally got some action. Seems fine now. Thanks again.
Update: I had to remove the RSS Feed altogether! Host said I was still using up most of their space. When I deleted the feed it was fine. What could be causing this? I'm completely flummoxed!

"This is a limited civil debt collection case that has been pending since July 5, 2011. At today's trial, plaintiff Capital One Bank proceeded by way of a declaration submitted by Wandi Chamberlain and referenced exhibits submitted pursuant to CCP 98. Ms.__________(Sarah) appeared personally and testified".
"The documents submitted at trial by Capital One Bank establish, to the satisfaction of the Court, that defendant entered into a an agreement for a line of credit (i.e., credit card agreement) with Capital One Bank. Upon questioning by the Court, Ms._________(Sarah) freely admitted that she filled out an application and did hold such a credit card. The documents also show indebtedness by defendent to Captial One Bank in the principal amount of $2,587.12".
"The key question at trial, which was existed since even before the inception of this case, is whether Ms.__________ (Sarah) identity was stolen, and/or whether the charges listed on this account for the 2008-2009 timeframe belong to her. At least as far back as April 4, 2011, defendent was corresponding with plaintiff's counsel anAltd requesting validation of the disputed amounts. (See letter to Legal Recovery Law Offices attached as an exhibit to defendent's answer.)"
"Moreover, after this case was filed, defendant requested through deiscovery that all her statements be produced so that she could determine wheter to contest the charges or not. Although Capital One Bank questions whether any discovery orders were entered, the minutes from January 25, 2012 reflect that the Bank was told to produce all documents verifying defendant's debt. Further, this Court distinctly remembers that the verification issue has been discussed at multiple Case Management Conferences.
"For the most part, the credit card statements introduced by Capital One Bank at trial show only progressive late fees and accumlating interest. With the exception of one or two charges from the Orlando, Florida area in 2008 (which are disputed by defendant), these documents do not explain the basis for any charges. Contrary to the declaration of Ms. Chabmerlain (paragraph 11), the statements submitted by Captial One Bank do not reflect the transactins giving rise to the debt."
"Although the Bank at trial took the position that it is too late for defendant to dispute any of the charges to her account, no legal authority wa sprovided on this issue. the Bank's trial breif is a boilerplate statement of law that omits any discussion of the critical debt verificaiton or debt validation issues. Accordingly, any issue as to the timeliness of asserting this defense has been waived (See Varjabedian v. City of Maderal (1977) 20 Cal.3rd 285,295, fn. 11: American Drug Stores, Inc. v. Stroh (1992) 10 Cal. App.4th 1446, 1453.)"
"Accordingly, judgment will be entered on behal of Ms. ___________(Sarah) on the complaint....."

Or is it just a > matter of education on how not to reach for the easy to produce mega > patch shortcut? That's the problem here: if we move to git (or any DVCS really), as a packager you would have to be _much_ more aware of how to use the VCS to achieve the same separation of patches and upstream source. You'd need to do something like topic branches for each patch and then merge each topic branch into a "release" branch to ensure that each of the patches was cleanly separated from the main source. Basically, moving to a DVCS and exploded source trees just raises the bar for packagers since they'd have to learn quite a bit about how DVCS works. CVS + tarball + patches are quite easy for most people to learn, but a DVCS + branches + merges is much more complicated if the changesets are small. And the changesets should always be small, otherwise we're completely failing at pushing stuff upstream. Maybe the fix here is to let package maintainers who want to use a DVCS style, and those that don't want to use the old style, and provide the ability to switch between the two styles when a new maintainer takes over the package?

Historical Traveler Reviews The Tides Inn Irvington
A Wonderful Getaway
We had a marvelous stay at the Tides Inn this spring! From the moment we were greeted at the entrance we were treated royally. Our room was lovely with a private patio overlooking the river. We had a wonderful dinner in the restaurant one evening and a fun dinner in the Chesapeake Club at the bar the second night. As it rained the entire time we were there we never got to experience the Miss Ann nor the golf course or pool.
That just gives us more reasons to come back to this very beautiful resort and experience the gracious hospitality of the Tides Inn again.
Hopefully on your next visit you will bring the sunshine with you!
Great resort with wear around the edges
Loved the resort, but our room was a little worn around the edges and felt like standard hotel fare. Location is perfect and we felt like we were staying at a friends river house. Staff is very friendly. The par-3 course on-site was perfect for my kids and we all enjoyed the cruise. We to a local spot for breakfast and coffee, plus ate a several local resturants. All good. The golf course is about 15 minutes away, but a very good course.
All-in-all, a very nice place to unwind.
Rest assured our guest rooms are well maintained with the priority being a four diamond experience you come to expect!
Lots to do
My husband and I took our two dogs to the Tides Inn in July 2004 and had a wonderful time. They allowed us to leave our well behaved dogs in the room while we rented a boat and had dinner in the hotel. They had a nice golf course and restaurant on the property, best crab cakes we ever had. We were expecting an actual beach there, but that's ok. They had a very busy pool area right on the water instead. Great accomodations.
The Duffy boat (our electric boats) is a very popular rental I'm glad you had a chance to go out. Next time make sure to try our partner Premier Sailing for a sail boat!
Room to improve
What a disappointment. We stayed at the Tides 2 yrs ago while they were remodeling. At that time room was nice but there was hardly any soundproofing. Could hear every door on our floor close. Went back last week for a long weekend and couldn't wait to leave. There are no ice machines on the floors. Although they say that ice will be provided by 3 PM, whenever you call, no one comes. The front desk was not helpful. Room service was non-existant and trays from people that did get room service stayed in the hall all day. Again, the noise from the hall kept us awake. For some reason after the remodeling, the rooms are now smaller - felt quite cramped for $300/night. Overall, not worth it. Would not stay there again. Service has definitely gone downhill.
A Nice Place
We recently had a very pleasant experience at the Tides Inn. Although our $300 deluxe room was a bit snug, it was very nicely decorated and had a beautiful view of the river. In addition, every single member of the staff we encountered was friendly and efficient. Although the food at the Inn was OK, the Trick Dog Cafe in Irvington was great. One quibble...the bar space should be redesigned so that guests can enjoy the lovely view as they have a pre-dinner drink. All in all, we had such a nice time, we have already recommended the Tides Inn to friends and family.
Avoid the Tides Inn
We were terribly disappointed by this hotel. It's billed as a luxury getaway. Wrong. It's not a dump by any means, but it is outrageous what they get away for charging per night for what you get. The service was terrible; the wait staff at the restaurant acted as if we were imposing on them, although the food was okay. Things were dingy, outdated or outright dirty in places. The front desk staff was surly. The hotel was noisy; we had to ask the guests in the next room to quiet down at 5am, since the rooms were barely sound proof. We checked out early and drove to another hotel. Don't go to the Tides Inn.
Luxury at it's Finest
This property is a true find. Waterfront on a penninsula, the rooms are all brand new with spectacular views. The bathrooms have marble and granite with separate glass showers and extra deep tubs for soaking.
The golf is first rate. There is so much to do for a small intimate, 100 room hotel with 4 restaurants(3 waterfront), 18 hole and 9 hole par 3 golf, full service spa, and did I mention the yacht rides everyday!
You would think you were in a much larger resort. My wife and I felt like we were at an exclusive club. A great mix of people were here as well with families, honeymooners and business meetings. We met a lot of new friends. The staff is friendly and they really know what southern hospitality is all about. I will be back soon! Don't pass this place up!
Below expectations.
Chose this resort for our 10th year anniversary For the $300 + per night the room and the property were at best average. The view from the main entrance is beautiful but there is really not much else. No ambiance whatsoever....Food was good but expensive. Maybe have been a good choice for our 50th Anniversary!
Below Expectations
This hotel has a lot of potential. The main problem with this place is the they have not kept up the maintainance. The place looks like it would have been great 20 years ago. The entry is artificial flooring that has gone bad and the rooms still have 70's style furnature and carpeting. The facilities are not well maintained including the three pools of which only one is operational. Be warned that the web site is very deceptive!!!!
What a treasure
My husband and I went to the Tides for our anniversary. The room was absolutely breathtaking, as was the view. The staff was wonderful, the manager even sent a complimetary bottle of champagne to our room. Our stay there could not have been even better. I would rate The Tides right up there with any Ritz!

#32: The Tribulations of St. Paul's School

Please also remember to read the postscript at the end...
For the past 150 years St. Paul's School, the "exclusive" (as it is invariably called) boarding school in Concord, New Hampshire, has been the Eton of America's upper crust. Or perhaps it is its Hogwarts; as Harry Potter's fictional academy is called, providing the country with many of its most accomplished wizards-not just at making money, although that is what its graduates have tended to do, but in practically every endeavor. Its main constituency has traditionally been the conservative old Wasp families of New York, Boston, and Philadelphia-the plutocracy that has been running the country for generations. But this is changing. Since the first black student was admitted--in my class, which graduated in 1964-- the school's admissions policy has been progressively more meritocratic. The "natural aristocracy," based on virtue and talent, to use Thomas Jefferson's distinction, has been displacing the "artificial aristocracy," based on wealth and birth. Every year there are fewer "legacies," fewer fourth- or fifth-generation Paulies, among the 533 students, who now come from 37 states and 21 countries.
Despite its reputation for being a breeder of staunch, old-line Republicans, St. Paul's uas arso turne6 out a msimguls'ne6 roster of liberals, including the cartoonist Garry Trudeau and Senator John Kerry. Kerry was in the class of '62, two years ahead of me, and even then he seemed to be plotting his run for the presidency. When he finally got his chance, many of us alumni were hoping he would win, not only because we felt the Bush administration was such a disaster but also because St. Paul's has yet to produce a president, whereas Groton prepped ED.R., Choate J.EK., and Andover both Bushes. But Kerry was a terrible disappointment. He simply lacked the common touch-which is not something you acquire at St. Paul's.
Last November, while Kerry was underperforming at the polls, a series of crises was rocking our alma mater. Elements of the trouble had been brewing for several years, but what busted the whole thing open was an article in the August 25, 2003, Wall Street Journal which revealed that the rector, as the headmaster of this venerable Episcopalian hall of learning is called, was being paid $524,000 a year in salary, pension, bonuses, and perks that included having his daughters' tuition at the University of Chicago picked up by the school. Parents, students, and alumni were stunned, and a rumor went around that the amount was more than the president of Harvard is paid. (It's actually a little less, and some prep-school headmasters get even more.)
The rector, as his name implies, is supposed to be a pillar of rectitude, especially if, as Craig Anderson was, he is also a bishop of the Episcopal Church. But "the Bish," as he was fondly called by students, had been accused of using the rector's discretionary fund-which is supposed to be reserved for school expenses-to pay for per¬sonal ones, including his membership in a yacht club in Maine. ("It was not a fancy yacht club," Anderson says from Minnesota, where he and his wife now live. "The dues were minimal-$I,OOO to $1,200 a year. In my contract, there were certain provisions for memberships in clubs. One year, this was used for the yacht club, but when this was brought to light and felt to be inappro¬priate, I repaid it fully.") On top of this, the trustees who were managing the school's $364 million endowment were accused of having "cozy relationships" with some of the companies they had it invested in, although an investigation found nothing illegal.
All of this prompted an investigation by the New Hamp¬shire attorney general's office, which put the school's finances under review through 2008, even though the rector and vice-rector had cut their own salaries by 10 percent. It also prompted an audit by the I.R.S., which has yet to be concluded. Not one but two scathing articles about the school eventually appeared in The New York: Times, the paper of record. Not good for the old image, especially when you are competing for top students against other well-endowed institutions such as New Hampshire's Phillips Exeter Academy, Connecticut's Choate Rosemary Hall, and Massachusetts's Groton School, Phillips Academy Andover, and Milton Academy, not to mention the excellent private day schools and public schools that are attract¬ing a growing number of high-performing teenagers.
This embarrassing spot on the school tie was still painfully fresh when, a few days into the 2004-5 school year, 15 sixth-form (senior) girls were suspended for hazing some of the new girls. The worst thing that happened was that some of the younger students were forced to simulate fellatio on bananas. Not such a big deal, compared with the 15-year-old girl at Milton Academy who performed oral sex on five members of her school's hockey team in succession a few months later. (Not such a big deal either, apparently, judging from a recent S.PS. graduate's response: "The question is: Did they win?") Or compared with the student at Northfield Mount Hermon School, in Massachusetts, who had the word HOMO carved into his back by two jocks in 1999. Or with the freshman football player at McGill University, in Montreal, who was prodded in the rear with a broomstick during a hazing ceremony last August 27, prompting the school to 'cancel its entire 2005 football season. But the banana incident violated New Hampshire's hazing law and had to be reported to the police. Groton's trustees had gotten into hot water a few years earlier for trying to keep the lid on sexual-abuse allegations. So there was an investigation, and the papers got wind of it, and the school suffered a second public-relations disaster.
Then, on November 7, only five weeks after the school's monumental new, $24 million gym and fitness center opened, a boy in the fourth form (the 10th grade) drowned in its Olympic-size swimming pool. While this appeared to fall into the category of pure tragedy (although the parents have sued the school), it couldn't have happened at a worse moment. One couldn't help thinking that the Lord was not smiling on this devoutly Christian school, where attendance at chapel four times a week is still obligatory.
The fourth element of the St. Paul's calamity had been incubating for years: the allegations that, from the late 1940s through the early 90s, dozens of the school's masters (as the teachers were known until women joined the faculty, in 1972), including several revered ones, had sexually molested students. Perhaps this shouldn't have been surprising, given that molestation-or "inappropriate boundary-crossing by a teacher," as it was more delicately described by Dean of Faculty Candice Dale-is a problem in schools the world over. Some of the alumni of Selwyn House, a private all-boys day school in Montreal that has educated much of the city's Anoglophone elite, for instance, have filed a class-action suit against the school for abuse they elite, for instance, have filed a class-action suit against the school for abuse they allegedly suffered from a teacher in the 70s and 80s. Both Andover and Exeter have also had sex-abuse incidents in the past 15 years.
My heart
went out to the school. I had a great time there and learned so much that
I entered Harvard as a sophomore. St. Paul's really gave me a leg up, as
it did almost everyone who went there, including the ones who were kicked
out or ran away and went on to have stellar careers. So it was distressing
to see the treatment it was getting in the press. As one scandal followed
another, none of the news articles that my classmates disseminated to one
another in hundreds of mass e-mails conveyed what the school was actually
like. Many of my media colleagues seemed to be taking relish in tearing
down the reputation of one of the sanctums of American elitism. It was
such a juicy target, how could you not go for the jugular? But anyone who
has gone to St. Paul's knows what a magical, and surprisingly democratic,
place it is.
My interest was piqued because I knew many of the players, including one of the most notorious of the accused masters, who is now living in disgrace in another state. At least I thought I knew him. (He had never come on to me.) I knew the new, interim rector, Bill Matthews, who had been an exemplary sixth-form supervisor in the Lower School when I was in the third form. And I knew the new head of the board of trustees, Jim Robbins, because we'd grown up together in Bedford, New York, in the 50s. Both of them had taken office after their predecessors resigned in June. We hadn't seen one anoth¬er in years, but I remembered them as good men. I also knew one of the lifetime trustees who had been on the secretive, too powerful Executive Committee and had stepped down, and the investment adviser who had done the report on the school's governance for the state A.G.'s office. The New England prep-school world of 40 to 50 years ago is a small one.
I had also written the history of two other private schools, attended by my five sons over the years-St. George's School of Mon¬treal, and Rippowam Cisqua School, in Bedford, New York-so I knew that schools are fascinating microcosms. They act out what is happening in the society at large. As the parent of a former student told me, after I started writing about the crises and their repercussions, "Everything that happened at St. Paul's is symptomatic of what our society has become."
St. Paul's campus spreads over more than 2,000 acres of deep woods, spotted
with dark ponds, on the outskirts of the state capital. On the largest
pond, Turkey, the crews of the rival rowing teams, the 'Halcyons and the
Shattucks (every student belongs to one of these, whether or not he or
she goes out for crew), race each spring. When they are good enough, usually
every other year, the best oarsmen go to Henley¬on-Thames, in England,
to compete in the Princess Elizabeth Challenge .Cup against the crews of
Eton, Harrow, and other Brit¬ish public schools. The Halcyon jacket
is maroon, the Shattuck cerulean blue, and the lapels of both are fringed
with white. Straw boaters, white ducks, white oxfords, and white shirts
with the Halcyon or Shattuck tie complete the after-the-race outfit. Hogwarts
has Quidditch; St. Paul's has crew, hockey, and squash .
My six-day visit to the school in October coincides with one of those glo¬rious little windows known as Indian summer, a combination of Gershwin's "Summertime" and Johnny Mercer's "Autumn Leaves." Each morning the ponds are swathed in mist. I watch students running across the bridge from the Coit Upper dormitory, where they have just had breakfast, to chapel. If they aren't inside by the time its Westminster chimes toll eight times, their names will be taken and they will get a "bag," which was called a demerit in my day. Back then, enough demerits put you on a work crew, which was run by a little man who was known to us as "the Toad." The Toad used to take some of the boys from the best families on a tour of whorehouses in the summer. As far as I know, no one who participated in these outings has ever complained. "The Toad was not a pedophile," says an alumnus who has .made it his mission to expose abusers among the faculty. "At worst he was a voyeur-facilitator."
By nine o'clock the mist has burned off, to reveal massive white pines, flecked with the flaming oranges and reds of turned hard¬woods, leaning out over the ponds. One golden, sun-flooded day follows another. The campus is as idyllic as I remember it. On my first day there, a Friday afternoon, the form directors-who get their classmates to come to reunions, and shake them down for checks-and the trustees have gathered for a "volunteer leadership weekend." I find everybody in the Schoolhouse, wearing the school tie-black with red and white diagonal stripes. It's a very bright, high-powered group, like a meeting of the Templars. Marvelous-looking old Wasps, including one who could be the twin of Ben Bradlee, mingle with other distinguished men of less obvious provenance. (Bradlee himself went to St. Mark's School, in Massachusetts.) There are a few African-Americans and Asian-Americans, and a few women, but it still seems like an old boys' club.
A lot of the people in the room are very pissed off. The class of ' 55, which had its 50th reunion in June, deliberately failed to meet its $2 million goal as a protest against the board and administration that allowed all these things to happen. But the treasurer of the class of ' 56's upcoming 50th tells me, "We have a couple of million at least in the bag already. We've got a good momentum going." And after the Bish was sent packing, donations shot up dramatically. It has turned out to be a banner fund-raising year. "Our return is higher than any endowment out there," reports the new treasurer of the board, Bob Lindsay ('73), who is a nephew of former New York mayor John Lindsay ('40) and is also head of the search committee that will choose the next rector. By all the metrics-the number of applications, the percentage of students accepted, the proportion who get into the Ivies, the amount of money being raised-the school is in vibrant health.
Jim Robbins, the new president of the board of trustees, is at the lectern, fielding questions like a White House press secretary during a hurricane. Robbins runs his own media company in Atlanta. "Are you going to tell who did what, when, or is that protected?" asks one form director, and another says, "Let's cut to the chase. How much did the Bishop rip us off for?"
Robbins says coolly that what is
released will be what is best for the school, and that Anderson is repaying
every penny of his questionable expenses. Robbins would be happy to discuss
the exact sum, he says, but he doesn't want to publicize it lest it trigger
another article in The New York Times. I have heard that the dubious expenditures
add up to around $300,000. Peanuts by Enron standards, but it's enough
to pay for more than eight full scholarships for a year. (Annual tuition
at St. Paul's is $35,000, plus fees.)

Dr. Desmangles is the best doctor we have ever had. He listens, explains well, is knowledgeable, thorough, insightful, sensitive, patient and firm. He is real, professional, and a good teacher. He is the doctor we measure all other doctors by, after living in several states with several doctors over the years. He remains heads above them all, and frankly we miss him.
I had a cancer scare that I found out about a year later than when he knew. A hospital called him and told him they saw a tumor in my body and he never told me. A year later I had another scan and saw the image myself. I was then told they notified doc a year ago, I was floored! I called for my records and indeed there it was in black and white !! I would say we are both lucky, it turned out to be beguine. My records and meds were wrong on paper, everything was a mess! WOuld never ever go back.
Great Doc as long as you never REALLY have a problem. When you tell him what you think is wrong and tell him what is going on with your body, he will tell you that cant be and dismiss what you say.From my experience, second opinions seem to offend him. The more that was found out about my health, the more he seemed to dismiss me.Not the worst doctor Ive been to but not up to a standard of all inclusive good care for a patient with health issues.And as nurses are coming to believe they are judges and not caregivers, his nurses should be on the supreme court.

I am on informal probation in CA for a DUI 2 yrs ago & got arrested for PC148.5(B). Did I violate prob what do I expect n court? How can I get an extention if I need a lawyer?
Criminal Defense Attorney
In addition to potential punishment for the new crime of filing a false report, if convicted on the new case, you would be in violation of your probation on the DUI. One of the standard terms of probation is to violate no laws. Potentially, additional jail time could be imposed for the violation.
How do you get an extension if you need a lawyer? Either you can find an attorney before your next court date or when you appear, ask to continue your arraignment so you can hire an attorney and have them appear with you. Since you're on probation, the court technically could take you into custody and hold you pending a probation violation hearing. That is unlikely, but a possibility. If you have time before your arraignment on the new case and are looking to hire an attorney, I'd do it soon.
DUI / DWI Attorney
I agree with the previous answer. You need an experienced attorney to help you. You can ask for an extension to get an attorney of a a couple of weeks.
DUI / DWI Attorney
Yes. You were told to obey all laws when sentenced on the DUI, including PC 148.5(b).
It shouldn't be hard at all. Request an extension to obtain counsel on your first appearance.

ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
Best International Business Class for Australian Business Travellers
This proved one of the toughest categories to judge, which in itself is good news for business travellers!
There was plenty of to and fro in emails, on Skype chat sessions and over the odd bottle of red as the Australian Business Traveller Awards panel weighed up their collective travel experiences throughout 2011.
Despite impressive flat-bed offerings from Emirates and Etihad, Qantas' perennial Skybed II and Cathay Pacific's impressive new business class seat, it was hard to go past the wide leather seats of Singapore Airlines' Airbus A380.
Each of these sumptuous sumo-sized benches is an ample 34 inches across, and the spacious 1-2-1 layout ensures every passenger has direct access to the aisle.
SQ's graciously attentive service remains first rate, as do the meals and wines served in-flight.
Add personal storage nooks, a soft cotton duvet and feather pillows in lie-flat mode and this is, indeed, a great way to fly.
Best International First Class (Seats) for Australian Business Travellers
The Australian Business Traveller Awards panel chose to split First Class into two categories – Seats and Suites – reflecting a trend in both directions as well as the issue of personal preference. Some frequent flyers enjoy the mood of an open cabin, others delight in the privacy of a personal suite.
In the Best International First Class Seats category, British Airways' new First Class was the frontrunner by every measure.
Everything about this cabin shows that BA has done its homework and nailed the formula for ultimate relaxation (or productivity) on the long haul Kangaroo Route.
The seat and its surrounds are undeniably elegant: think refined, relaxed, and chic but without being flashy. It makes a pleasing change from all the fake wood, brass and assorted bling in many premium cabins these days.
Bells and whistles include a wardrobe to hang clothes, electronic window blinds, a super-sized angled video screen and thoughtfully positioned tables.
The cabin is spacious without feeling busy, with service and meals straight out of the classiest bistro.
Best International First Class (Suites) for Australian Business Travellers
For those who'd rather cocoon themselves for the duration of a flight, self-contained suites are the only way to travel.
Those members of the Australian Business Traveller Awards judging panel who've been fortunate enough to sample the suite life voted Singapore Airlines ahead of a decidedly swanky shortlist.
SQ's Suites tick just every box the well-heeled traveller could conjure: a private and incredibly quiet (it's actually sound-proofed) cabin with discrete sliding doors and window blinds.
There's a separate leather-upholstered seat and a full-size (2m long, 70cm wide) bed capped by a plush mattress with duvet.
Describing any First Class suite gets to the stage where every successive bullet point sounds more and more indulgent, and that's the idea – so we'll just draw the line here and suggest you keep saving your own points for that upgrade-of-a-lifetime!
Click here to see all winners in the Australian Business Traveller Awards 2011.
The Australian Business Traveller Awards are judged by an independent panel of business travellers and frequent flyers plus the AusBT team, and provide a uniquely Australian perspective on the best products and services for Australia's estimated 2.6 million business travellers.

Product Description
From Amazon
Essential Windows CE Application Programming stresses efficient programming in C rather than C++ and shows how to write software for today's Windows CE platform.
After a quick introduction to Windows CE and handheld devices, author Robert Burdick provides a working template for a basic application. He then explains dialog boxes, basic controls, and common controls, such as the calendar and date-time-picker controls. The menu system in Windows CE is quite specialized, and Burdick demonstrates how to use its command bars effectively, providing tool tips along the way.
Other sections cover storage in Windows CE, starting with its file system; the Windows CE database APIs, including an example that stores phone numbers; and the Win32 registry. The best material in this book, however, is the coverage of owner-draw and custom controls in Windows CE. (This expertise, once standard fare for most Windows developers, has been largely superseded by ActiveX controls.) The author shows how to customize buttons for an ATM kiosk application. He also covers the Windows CE Custom Draw Service and how to create standalone custom controls. Further sections look at using the built-in HTML viewer control, inputting text with the rich ink control, and even recording sound.
The last sections of the book turn to data synchronization APIs, used to send files between handheld devices and desktops, plus memory and power-management issues. --Richard Dragan
From the Back Cover
The indispensable guide to writing clean CE applications, including real-world tips, techniques, and workarounds.
Microsoft's Windows CE operating system is quickly finding its way into a wide variety of information appliances like Handheld and Palm-size PCs, television set top boxes, smart telephones, and electronic books. Robert Burdick gives you a thorough tutorial for programming the essential features of Windows CE. Using a complete sample application, each chapter provides comprehensive coverage of the programming techniques required to take advantage of a specific Windows CE feature. As Windows CE continues to evolve into the industry standard for information appliances and mobile computing platforms, Essential Windows CE Application Programming will prove to be your most valuable programming resource. Inside you will find:
* A look behind the curtain at the architecture of the Windows CE operating system.
* Programming building blocks like Windows CE controls and dialog boxes.
* In-depth insight into the desktop connectivity features of Windows CE.
* Complete coverage of Windows CE persistent storage programming.
* Custom user-interface programming.
* Lessons for programming Windows CE at the API level.
* Extensive samples of Windows CE application code.
On the CD-ROM you'll find:
* Source code for all sample programs in the book.
Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
Burdick's book is for people with some Windows development skills who want to get involved with Windows CE app development. It is a rather complete excursion into CE app-land.
The book is very well written with clear, concise examples, easy-to-understand passages and a simple layout that works. It probably won't be of much help to the elitist looking for some elusive tidbit of CE secrets, but for just about everyone else it will probably fit best no further than arm's length.

As some of you know, I am the father of two little boys: a two-and-a-half-year-old, and a ten-month-old. Over the past few months, we've been plagued by the younger boy, Rowan, going through the exact same phase that his older brother did at a comparable point: he is obsessed with grownup objects that look vaguely like they might be some kind of toy but emphatically are not. Cell phones, landline phones, remote controls, electric fans, PDAs humidifiers, lamps, anything at all with an electric cord attached to it. The more dangerous, the better. If we had a suitcase nuke hanging around in our living room, I'm sure he'd be in to that as well.
Now, if you've ever spent any time in a modern toy store, you know that the shelves are amply stocked with kiddie versions of most of these things: baby's first cell phone, little plastic lanterns, oversized remote control-like gadgets, day-glo keyboards. We have purchased most of these items, and they sit around our parlor floor and the boys' room like dejected orphans. Rowan has no interest in them whatsoever. I know that this is all about our prohibition: he wants to chew on the humidifier cord because 1) cords are delicious (duh!), but just as importantly because 2) we scream and race across the room every time he goes for it. But the problem here is that he's clearly picked up a general pattern here, one that defines the category of toy objects itself: the shiny, colorful, plasticky things are the things that mom and dad want me to play with, while all the black and beige things with cords are The Forbidden.
So here's my proposal: a line of toddler toys that are totally indistinguishable from Actual Consumer Electronics, save one key attribute: they are incapable of killing or maiming little children. Where appropriate, they sport fake electric cords, perhaps even with fake sockets you can suction-cup to the wall. There are no fluorescent dinosaurs on them, no Disney characters. Everything looks from a few feet away like it's right out of the Sharper Image catalog.
I think there's a quick million to be made here. Any takers?

@Dbomb: It's good for a first, pretty much like one of my first ones
You really need to somehow blend the render into the background, cause most of the time people make a big mistake of simply adding the render into so kickass background, destroying the sig altogether, they make it look like a sticker. But nice try
@Lewi, dont feel it to be honest. Could be a border, why is that "altair" there... i would remove that, makes it look like thats the name. and the text on it "lewi t", could be blended better, i've noticed that with pretty much everyones sigs on here... the text isn't blended at all... make it stand out yea, but make it look like its part of the sig. Nice attempt.
@Sparx, = Not burned, with motion is the best one. Could do with a border, (top and bottom, black, 1 or 2 pixels in height, you'll be surprised how much such a simple thing changes the sig). It's also abit long, the smaller the sig the less you have to fill!
and for your current sig sparx: Thats pretty nice, good way it blends out to colour. your text is good, maybe could do with being clearer though. well, the "x" anyway, you could make the background behind it just slightly darker to get over that.
@Rob, i prefer the top one (the one with dark on the right) reason being it adds DEPTH, which is one of the greatest things to do in a sig.
@Syntax, i love the one with your name, did you make it? And i'm gonna try it myself if thats ok with you
This long post has come as a result of im BORED.

I explained several times already why I disagree. Preemption is not a
problem unless you're preempted away for long enough, or IOW if your
counter is too fast.
And no, ^Z on a process doesn't create preemption. This is a signal that
gets acted upon far away from the middle of cnt32_to_63().

BATH (AP) — Authorities say a wounded Afghanistan war veteran shot his fiancee's mother to death and then killed himself in the Northampton County home where both lived.
Northampton County Coroner Zachary Lysek said Tuesday afternoon that police were called to a Moore Township home just before midnight Monday due to a domestic dispute.
Lysek said 44-year-old Michelle Snyder was pronounced dead at the scene of a gunshot wound, and she was the victim of a homicide.
He said 27-year-old Robert Kislow III was also pronounced dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
WFMZ said the home was built in 2011 for Kislow by the nonprofit group Homes For Our Troops.
The organization said on its site that Kislow was severely wounded during a June 2005 Taliban attack in Afghanistan near the Pakistan border.

BJP proves its clout in Delhi civic polls
Dealing a stunning blow to the ruling Congress, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday won 138 out of the 272 wards in three Delhi municipal corporations as Congress fell way behind the saffron party in the civic body polls winning 78. The Bahujan Samaj Party won an impressive 15 seats.
The municipal polls are considered as a semi-final ahead of the Assembly elections next year.
In the 2007 polls to the undivided Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), BJP had bagged 36.17 per cent of the around 42.35 lakh votes polled while Congress got 29.17 per cent. BSP's vote share was 9.87 per cent.
BJP has 164 councillors in the undivided MCD against Congress' 67 and BSP's 17.
Congress sought to downplay the results with party spokesperson Rashid Alvi saying that MCD polls should be seen only as civic polls. BJP's M Venkaiah Naidu said BJP's good governance in MCD and Congress' corruption resulted in the good show of his party.
While the BJP was poised to win North and East Corporations comfortably, the party seemed to be emerging as the single largest party in the South and is confident of getting the support of independents to cross the midway mark. Of the results declared by State Election Commission out of 272 wards in all three corporations, the BJP has bagged 138 while Congress has won 68 seats.
BSP has bagged 14 seats, RLD three, NCP and SP two each and JD(U) and INLD one each while 17 Independents have also won.
In South Delhi Corporation which has a total of 104 wards, BJP has won or is leading in as many as 43 out of the 104 wards while Congress was ahead in 30 seats. Interestingly, others are leading in 26 seats.
In North Delhi Corporation, which has 104 seats, BJP is ahead in 61 seats while Congress is leading in 16 seats. Others are leading in four wards.
In East Delhi Corporation having 64 seats, BJP is leading in 34 seats while Congress is ahead in 26 seats.
BJP has 164 councillors in the undivided MCD against Congress' 67 and BSP's 17. Congress sought to downplay the results with party spokesperson Rashid Alvi saying that MCD polls should be seen only as civic polls.
The results of Delhi municipal elections have come as a rude shock to Congress which was confident of sweeping the polls on the plank of BJP's "misrule" and infighting over ticket distribution. The outcome of the polls is seen as huge disappointment for Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit who had pushed hard to trifurcate the MCD despite stiff resistance from a number of party leaders who had warned that splitting the 53-year-old body ahead of the polls will cost the party dear.
Dikshit, who had addressed series of rallies across the city and campaigned hard for the polls, had ruled out price rise highlighted by BJP as an issue but it now appears that the Chief Minister's assessment was not entirely correct. Although Dikshit chose not to react to the poll outcome, her son and East Delhi MP Sandeep Dikshit attributed the defeat to a disconnect between the party and the people and BJP's success in taking advantage of scams like 2G spectrum and price rise.
Senior party leader Subhash Chopra, who had led a delegation to party president Sonia Gandhi last year opposing split in the MCD, said the timing of the trifurcation was "totally wrong" which might have cost the party.
The defeat in East Delhi corporation is seen as particularly disappointing for Dikshit as party leaders said a lot of special effort was put in the area which is represented by her son in the Lok Sabha. Sandeep Dikshit attributed his party's defeat in Delhi civic polls to a disconnect between the party and the people and BJP's success in taking advantage of scams like 2G spectrum and price rise.
He also said an environment was created by CAG reports and the anti-corruption movement led by Anna Hazare that made people the believe that itwas Congress which was the "centre of all the wrong" that was happening. "We tried our best to keep the issues local and focussed on MCD whereas BJP, because of the overall general climate that was there in the countryand in Delhi, focussed on price rise and 2G spectrum scam," the East Delhi MP said. "We have taken lot of proactive steps but somewhere communication between us and the people have broken down in last one and half to two years. I think we need to reestablish it," he said.

How about a photo blanket, you say? I had always dismissed photo blankets as kind of grandma-y and never looked at them seriously, but when Collage.com sent me an email and asked if I wanted to see one in person, how could I say no? And, then I saw it in person and was in love. Seriously, is there anything cuter than this?

On 12/15/2010 I was having issues with my computer freezing up and/or not being able to close programs. I was on the microsoft website and I honestly don't know how I got to them. I beleived I was dealing with a Microsoft Tech. I was told for $149 my computer would be optimized and all the issues would be eliminated. Supposedly they would fix my computer that evening. I received notification that They again dealt with the issues on 1/15/2011. If you haven't guessed it, the computer is still exactly the same as before I had any contact with omni tech. The whole thing is a scam. I honestly beleived I was dealing with microsoft, not some rip off scam.
