Our Philosophy
Numerous scholarly studies and personal experiences of faculty and students demonstrate that the inability or failure of certain students to succeed in school cannot be appropriately and justifiably explained solely by students' lack of intelligence or drive to do well. Rather, it is the schools that have continued to devalue, set aside, or even completely ignored the needs and interests of students that would have allowed them to succeed in the first place. Many unfairly expect students to do well in an environment that is set up to make themnot do well. PIPE recognizes this unwarranted finger-pointing at students by taking proactive steps to directly provide a set of tools to assist in the retention and eventual graduation of P.I. students. But what sets PIPE as a unique project in this regard is that the tools that it uses spring from the practice of traditional cultural values that are directly applied to mentorship and integrated with schooling. PIPE is a place in school where native culture is valued rather than subtracted, where culture is a source of empowerment rather than merely a site of extracurricular activity.
Pacific Islander American students at U.W. consist of: Chamorus (natives of Guam), Chukese, Filipinos, native Hawaiians, Palauans, Pohnpeians, Samoans, and Tongans. It is important to know that these are not the only groups that comprise Pacific Islander Americans. Other Pacific Islanders include: Melanesians who are natives from Fiji, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, and the Marshall Islands; Micronesians, who are natives from Guam, Saipan, Pohnpei, Micronesia, Yap, Chuuk, and Palau; as well as Polynesians who are natives from Hawaii, Tahiti, New Zealand, the Cook Islands, Samoa, and Tonga. PIPE reaches out to Pacific Islanders in particular who number about 1,000 on campus, but in our study table and mentorship sessions, we also attract different students from other groups, making our project highly diversified. Black and Chicano students have also expressed a strong interest in following PIPE's model after hearing about its success or participating in its activities. PIPE has become an inspiration for other minority groups on campus.

iPhone 5 review
The iPhone 5 is more than just Apple's latest high-end smartphone. In a world of huge slabs of phone the iPhone's thin profile makes it different to the Galaxy S4, Sony Xperia Z, HTC One, BlackBerry Z10, Nokia Lumia 925 and the rest of the high-end phone lineup. For more comparisons see Group test: what's the best smartphone?; iPhone 5 vs iPhone 4S comparison review and Samsung Galaxy S3 vs Apple iPhone 5 comparison review.
In our iPhone 5 review we test the iPhone 5 performance, look at iPhone 5 build and design, and check out the iPhone 5 cameras. We also check out new iPhone 5 features and the iPhone 5's software.
iPhone 5 review: Performance
Confirmed by our lab tests, everything about the iPhone 5's performance has been augmented from its predecessor the iPhone 4S, in this contrarily smaller mobile phone handset.
It's not just a bit faster – it's 100 percent or more quicker in processor speed. Similarly in the graphics room, gamesters or anyone that needs grease-lightning visuals will be beaming from ear to ear at the step-change in sheer speed.
iPhone 5 review: A6 Processor
We can't honestly say that on any day we picked up an iPhone 4 or even 4S and thought 'this is a great phone – but I just wish it could be a little bit faster'. Yet the new-found double-speed action does end up bringing you a device that's really just more moreish to use.
Apple is playing coy in the numbers game for the new A6 chip, although technicians who have dissected the phone are pointing to a much bigger breakthrough than may be obvious.
The A6 appears to be Apple's own in-house chip design, still using the ARM architecture but not as prèt-a-porter as most smartphone makers typically specify. It's still a dual-core processor, like that in the 4S, but memory is double the iPhone 4S' at 1GB.
Crucially, the architecture may be more like the as-yet unreleased ARM Cortex-A15 reference design rather than Cortex-A9 that has been staking out the ground for leading smartphone designs. The graphics engine now appears to be a tri-core processor too.
Clocked at 1.3GHz, the A6 chip may appear old-hat against the 1.4GHz quad-cores required for Android phones to feel slick. But in synthetic benchmarks, it was the fastest mobile chip you could purchase, when the iPhone 5 launched. It remains in the highest echelon alongside the Samsung Galaxy phones, the HTC One and the Sony Xperia Z.
iPhone 5 review: Benchmark Results
Apple says the new A6 processor is up to twice as fast as the A5 in the iPhone 4S. Our benchmarks of processor and memory performance with Geekbench 2 suggested that Apple was being economical with the truth – by understating the staggering increase in speed.
The iPhone 5 scored 1650 points in Geekbench 2, compared to the 4S' score of 632. That's over 2.6 times faster.
When it came to gaming performance, the iPhone 5 ran the Egypt HD test within the GLBenchmark 2.5 test at 38fps, which is exactly twice the framerate of the 4S' which scored 19fps.
Browsing the web was super speedy. When tested for JavaScript rendering speed, we found the iPhone 5 to again be around twice as fast – scoring 903ms in the SunSpider test, against 1891ms for an iPhone 4S; both using iOS 6.
In general use, the iPhone 5 feels incredibly snappy, opening apps and loading websites quicker than ever before. We haven't tried EE's new LTE service yet, but even web browsing over 3G feels appreciably faster.
And in our tests, it was. Not just JavaScript, but 3G cellular is much quicker – almost twice the speed.
We took a series of network speed tests over a short time period from the same location, using the same Three nano-SIM card. The iPhone 4S averaged 7.92 Mbps download, and 2.34 Mbps upload from our office location in London. Peak speed recorded in any single run was 8.78 Mbps.
The iPhone 5 is helped along by not just a faster processor but a more modern RF chipset for cellular data. It averaged 13.3 Mbps download and 2.52 Mbps upload. Peak speed hit a giddy 16.91 Mbps.
We have been seeing in excess of two days' battery life, suggesting that all the extra power is not having a major effect on runtime.
iPhone 5 review: Features
The stand-out outward attribute of the iPhone 5 is its larger screen. Not a huge expanse of space in both directions as Google's hardware friends have uniformly decided is the way to sway tech-loving buyers – notably the Samsung Galaxy S3 with its extravagant 4.8in display. The iPhone 5 raises its screen estate by simply extending the screen's height by 14mm, keeping the width identical.
The new 640 x 1136-pixel display is still IPS, only even richer in colour saturation while still looking more natural than the slightly cloying OLED alternatives. And importantly the Apple iPhone 5's screen still has the pixel-hiding Retina resolution of 326ppi.
Operating the iPhone 5 with its longer screen is a doddle. Unlike the semi-tablet sized phones with 4.5in or larger screens, you really can reach the whole screen to operate it easily still with just one hand. Pick up an iPhone 5 though, and you'll notice a new featherweight quality. Down at 115g against the 4S' 141g, it feels wafer-like, almost too light in fact. Beautifully balanced, its mass is evenly distributed to offset any bias toward top or bottom.
The build quality has been described as jewel-like with reason. Swiss watch is another inescapable analogy, echoed from Apple's sound bite at the iPhone 5's launch.
The move to aluminium construction may be a step in the right direction though; and not just by helping to lose headline grams from the all-up weight. It provides a more handleable object for the fingertips. Hardened glass front and back didn't just lend the iPhone 4 chic obsidian bling – it could make the handset a slippery slab. The iPhone 5 is now built around an anodised aluminium backplate that allows a tad more purchase in the hand. Durability may suffer a little though. In the case of the black model especially, daily use is likely to create small nicks in the anodised coating, so to keep the iPhone 5 pristine a case is as useful as ever.
In white, the iPhone 5 looks less juvenile than the 4S blanc; diamond-polished bevelled edges and a satin aluminium back make it much more unisex now. In black, it's pure stealth bomber, mixing brushed metal slate-anodised back with mirror polished front bevels and gleaming black glass front.
This tech user is not so convinced by the drive for thin though. Given the still all-too short runtime of today's handsets – and that includes the iPhone, despite it out-lasting every average fizzling Android – we would rather keep with something like 9.5mm and 141g if it meant using the space and weight budget wisely, with a battery to comfortably last three rather than two days.
A phone as light as the iPhone 5 also seems to leave no sensation of its presence in the pocket. It's a a matter of taste whether you like this idea or prefer to have some subtle clue that the phone is still there... or not. The iPhone 5 carries the flag for the newly born iOS 6 operating system, and this gently tweaked system creates continuity from the user experience of previous iPhones. Alongside the metal-banded frame, the now-familar interface is a key point of reference for the mainstream audience, copied the world over with varying degrees of accuracy and resulting litigation.
iPhone 5 review: Video
NEXT PAGE: iPhone 5 cameras, Lightning connector, new SIM and Apple Maps >>
We continue our iPhone 5 review with a look at the iPhone 5's cameras.
iPhone 5 review: Cameras fore and aft
On the hardware side, the rear-facing camera is much the same as that in the iPhone 4S, able to shoot full-HD video at 30fps, with software image stabilisation. The change here is a new lens cover, now crafted from sapphire crystal for improved optical clarity and hopefully scratch resistance. The front-facing camera is now up to 1280 x 720-pixel resolution, which enables Apple's video chat service FaceTime in HD mode.
Attention to the human-device interface is found in various new audio systems, starting with an intriguing triple-mic assembly. This promises better fidelity through some kind of beamforming, a variation from earlier two-mic noise cancelling. As well as a new audio co-processor tucked inside, we're told there's support for Wideband audio, using more advanced data comms technology. It should expand the frequency range of the spoken voice to make conversation more life-like. Orange seems to be the only UK operator currently offering Wideband audio, and caller and callee both need compatible handsets.
The Wideband audio tech is not an Apple first, but given the handset's impeding uquity it should really encourage more networks to look into enabling the service.
For comparitive tests of the iPhone 5, iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy S3's cameras, see our story: iPhone 5 vs Galaxy S3 vs iPhone 4S video and photo comparison.
We also have for examples of panoramic images shot using the new panorama mode on the iPhone 5.
iPhone 5 review: Lightning
Updating the standard 30-pin dock connector that's been so widely tapped into for nine years was always going to upset some people. Thankfully its replacement looks to be future-proofed to survive as long in this quick-changing tech world.
The supplied Lightning cable is USB 2.0 rather than USB 3.0, although since iCloud syncing came online there's less need to transfer files over cable now. It's possible that future iterations of the cable may introduce USB 3.0, to let the connection live up to its lightning name.
The Lightning plug itself is reversible, able to be inserted either way, and has pin contacts that can adapt to the needs of the device. In other words, it should adapt to the changing needs of users and their devices in the next few years to come.
iPhone 5 review: New SIM
As expected, the iPhone 5 is taking an even smaller SIM card than the already diminuitive micro-SIM.
The nano-SIM will be a minor inconvenient speed bump to quick'n'easy switching until you've traded in your current SIM. Cutting down a micro-SIM may just be possible but is not advised.
Apple has replaced the Google-supplied mapping data for the Maps app with its own new system. It now uses vector-based graphics and text, which all scale smoothly.
But popular features such as Street View are no longer available. More worrying is the misplacing of landscape features, or the complete absence of crucial details – like railway stations.
Satellite imagery is also of poorer quality than before, with some of the images we've seen of UK scenery looking quite dour.
iOS 6 review: Maps
We've written an entire iOS 6 review, which has all the details - but here are a few thoughts on iOS Maps.
The Flyover feature is an attractive way to see buildings in 3D relief, but this is only available in select larger cities. And not on the iPhone 4, for instance.
Flying around the Thames embankment is great eye candy though, using two fingers to circle around the London Eye, for example.
Apple has stated that its new Maps feature is a work in progress but that doesn't help users who've upgraded and were expecting the same functionality they've become used to from the built-in mapping feature.
Until Apple fixes this crucial part of its mobile operating system, a stopgap can be found by making a Home screen shortcut for Google or Bing's online maps.
That won't help in apps like Find My Friends, though, which are stuck with Apple's deficient mapping function. This app has now been updated for iOS 6, and can use geofencing to alert you when a friend arrives at or departs from a chosen location.
The iPhone 5 really is much more than a tall iPhone 4S with a new plug. The people may demand a revolution every upgrade season. But Apple may just have supplied what the people need, not what they say they want. And that's a powerful evolution on the theme of iPhone which is currently putting the competiton back on the starting blocks.

overnight camping trips from Manhattan?
Two of my friends want to go on an overnight camping trip starting from Manhattan, but separately. So I'm looking for one place where we could camp overnight that's within a 30-60 mile bike ride of public transportation, and another place where we could camp overnight that's within a few miles' walk of public transportation. The bike site could be either a prepared camp site or just a place where people won't mind us pitching a tent; the walking site really has to be approved for camping. Does the hive mind have any suggestions? [more inside]

A car crash knocked out power to several homes in Kensington over the weekend.
Investigators said a teenage boy hit a utility guy-wire while navigating a sharp turn on Route 107. The crash knocked out power to several homes for more than an hour Sunday afternoon.
Investigators say there isn't anything suspicious about the crash. The teenager was taken to the hospital, but he's expected to be OK.

Well, I do. It's horrible!
I moved here in 2002 and went to work for the same company my mom was working for. Just as a temporary, part-time thing so I could learn the business (it was more like an intern thing than anything at that point), and after a few months, that stopped working for me, so I found something else.
Then, a friend of the family heard of another position and put in a good word for me. That's how I came to work here. My boss hired me in January 2003. In March of '03 he fired his processor and promoted me..which was scary as hell, because I was hired as the receptionist and had NO EXPERIENCE processing. So, I started learning the business and he hired a more experienced processor in the meantime...my mother.
Surprisingly, we work well together. It's not too difficult to separate our personal and professional lives, plus with her separation anxiety issues, it works well for her. I have some issues, but for the most part, I'm ok. Usually.
Then, two years ago, my boss opened a second branch office in another town. He needed a receptionist, so my sister applied and was hired. Now, there's no way in hell I could have worked in the same office with my mom and my sister, but since she was like 3 towns away, it worked out. Mostly.
To make matters even worse, my dad came to work for our company at the beginning of this year. Can you believe that? My entire freaking family (with the exception of my brother, who's going to school in Utah) work for the same company. I mean, can it get any better? (insert sarcasm here)
Normally, my dad and sister are in one office and me and my mom are in another, so we don't really have to deal with each other. Sometimes, though, drama spills over and we all get sucked in.
That's what happened this morning.
Now, we've established already that my sister is a drama queen. She blows everything out of proportion. And I mean, everything. Doesn't matter what happens, she makes a huge issue out of it. Always.
So, the other day my sister emails my boss and tells him she's taking yesterday off. Yes, TELLS him. No, she doesn't request the day off, she just says, "I'm taking Thursday off". Now, this pissed my boss off. I don't blame him, either. I mean, it's just flat out common sense if nothing else that you ASK for time off, not just TAKE time off, right?
He replies to her and says that employees generally ASK for time off and it was disrespectful and blah, blah, blah. Well, this pisses my sister off. "Why can everyone else take time off but not me? How DARE he email me like that?" OMG! She FREAKED.
She calls him and tells him she didn't mean to DEMAND the day off, but she HAS to do this makeup stuff for school and he should understand that and...whatever. She basically just hit him with a bunch of attitude. And then, she did the unthinkable.
She hung up on him.
No, really. I'm dead serious. The freakin retarded idiot HUNG UP ON HER BOSS! The man that signs her paychecks. Is that freakin unbelievable, or what? Had it been me, I would have fired her ass. Instead, he wrote her up.
Now, I had to leave at 1:30 yesterday to take Little Man and The Girl to the dentist (LM had to have his follow up from the baseball incident and they both needed cleanings and checkups) so I wasn't here for any of this drama. But boy, I sure heard about it.
I spent the night at MM's last night, and I don't get cell service up there, but when I headed to work this morning I saw that I had 4 new VM's. The first message was from my mother, "Holly, call me back when you get this." Ok, delete. The second message was from my sister, "Holly, I need to talk to you, mom's being dumb. Call me." Delete! The third message was from my mother, "Holly, where are you? Call me back right away." Ok, I was a little more curious, but still..DELETE. The fourth? From my DAD! "Holly, it's really important that you give us a call back. Your mom and your sister are at it again." Oh. Hell. No.
So I call my mom this morning. "You rang?"
"You need to talk to your sister. She's being a complete idiot right now. She won't listen to a word I say. You know, she got written up yesterday, right? Well, now she won't shut up about it and..." Damn, I sooo don't want to get drawn into this.
By the Grace of God, my cell service died right then and she got cut off. Whew! Saved by a bad signal. Except my service came back again not a minute later and my phone was blowing up again. This time it was my sister. She's in hysterics, crying so hard I can barely understand her, talking about what a jerk our boss is and what a witch our mom is and how she hates her job and hates her life and everyone hates her and her life sucks and...Oh.my.gosh. My head was pounding by this time. Seriously.
Is it really necessary for me to get drawn into all this? I just work here. I don't need to know about all of this, do I? Damn.
My cell service cut out again and then I shut my phone off. I figure, if I ignore it, it'll go away, right? Yeah, that would probably work if I didn't work with them. Instead of that being the end of my involvement, though, I had to hear about it first thing when DW got to work. Then I had four emails from my sister. And this was all before 8 a.m.
Someone, please shoot me and put me out of my misery! PLEASE?

Ok, that was just DUMB on your sister's part. DUMB. RETARDED!
I'm only sorry you are gonna get dragged into this.
Second thing, shoot, my mom, my sister, my uncle (dad's brother) and buncf of other family friends work for the same state department.
We may not work in the same unit, I'm but I'm forever seeing them. lol.
- Dylan said...
Dude your sister has some major issues, she must think she's got some golden ticket that no one else has and that she can be pissy to the boss and not get reprimanded for it...gosh what a crackhead.
That sounds a whole lot like my brother P. But he's gotten a whole lot better with that, so Im glad that I don't have to deal with him being like that anymore, it was like as soon as his gf got pregnant, he went back to being the brother I knew and loved...lol.
Maybe your sister needs to get pregnant so she can calm the hell down. LOL.
- Holly said...
OMG! I don't think she EVER needs to procreate! Can you imagine TWO of my sister in the world at ONE TIME?? OH HELL NO! LOL
- Marie said...
That is pretty funny. Unrealistic, but funny. Somedays I would like to do just that. But that just isn't me. Some peoples kids....
- Teena said...
Your sister needs a reality check. Giving your boss 'tude just doesn't happen. Where I work, she would have been written up for it. Three strikes, you're out. So they'd be looking for a second and third reason to can her ass legally and she'd be gone.
- Mailyn said...
dude how old is your sister?!?!?
she hung up on her boss??? you sure you two are related? lol
- Holly said...
She's the one that just turned 21, Mailyn (from my Vegas trip blogs). I know part of it is immaturity, but cripes!
If we didn't look so much alike, I'd swear I was adopted into this family. *sigh*

I feel your pain. I know how it feels to dragged into something that doesn't involve you.
your sis needs to grow up. Lord help you.

Um, I think the name of your blog says it all.

Thanks, Moment. I need all the prayers I can get, I think.

R USH LIMBAUGH, the dominant force in conservative talk radio in America for more than two decades, is leaving his longtime Philadelphia perch on 50,000-watt AM station WPHT, apparently for an unknown rival.
The dramatic move shakes up the Philly radio market - and arguably the local political scene as well. It's not clear how much the move was influenced by the national uproar over Limbaugh's calling a Georgetown law student "a slut," which has caused at least 67 advertisers to jump ship.
Limbaugh will be replaced from noon to 3 p.m. by hometown-based Michael Smerconish, who now airs in the afternoon-drive slot.

One night Kiyo and I found ourselves near Chelsea Market, and decided on a whim to grab diner at the cozy-looking nook that is Friedman's Lunch. The Wall Street Journal reports that the name of the restaurant is inspired by the late economist Milton Friedman, who popularized the adage, "There's no such thing as a free lunch." Kiyo and I sat at a high table and loved the laid back, cool and calm atmosphere that at the same time wasn't stagnant or boring. People were having a great time in the dimly lit, rustic space. I ordered the "market sides," which is an entrée plate comprised of your choice of three market sides – genius! I am in love with this idea and I think it should be an option at more restaurants. It really proves that they are proud of every item on their menu, enough to let the sides stand alone and speak for themselves.
My plate consisted of shaved Brussels sprouts (with honey, aged sherry and pecorino cheese), sweet potato fries (with aioli) and macaroni and cheese (to note, much of their menu is available in gluten-free versions as well). The Brussels sprouts and the mac and cheese were both absolutely addicting and perfect. The sweet potato fries were average, but I would have much prefered some sort of blue cheese dip over the aioli. Or, the aioli would have been better with more garlic, but it was a bit bland. Overall, it was a great dinner and we would love to go back.

Construction activity in the Birmingham area could dip after the value of contracts for future work declined in August, a report says.
McGraw-Hill Construction reported this morning that contracts for future construction in the Birmingham-Hoover metropolitan area in August were valued at $169.3 million, a decline of 16 percent from the same month in 2006.
Nonresidential contracts dropped 31 percent last month to $44.3 million. Contracts for residential construction fell 9 percent to $125 million, according to McGraw-Hill's research and analytics unit.
New York-based McGraw-Hill, which is considered an authority on the construction market, looked at contracts signed in Bibb, Blount, Chilton, Jefferson, Shelby, St. Clair and Walker counties.

BOSTON – The first Monday of February means just one thing to sports fans in Boston – the Beanpot Tournament. In the opening semifinal at TD Garden, Boston University took on Harvard in a re-match of last year's consolation game.
Just hours before the 5 p.m. puck drop, the Terriers garnered their first No. 1 ranking of the season and first since Nov. 8, 2010 after beating Merrimack on the road at Lawler Arena last Friday.
BU passed its first test as the nation's top team, beating the Crimson by a 3-1 score to capture its second head-to-head victory of the season.
"First of all, I did not think either team played its best game," said BU head coach Jack Parker, who improves to 58-19 in Beanpot games all-time. "We were very fortunate to win…They stormed us the first two periods and we were lucky to win."
"Neither team seemed to be that engaged. There were some good plays and nice goals scored, but overall…it [almost felt like] a sleepwalk."
The Terriers jumped on the board first at the 8:14 mark of the first period as junior Matt Nieto sent a wrap-around shot in front, hitting off a Harvard defenseman in front of the net. The California native is coming off a fantastic game at Merrimack on Friday, during which he posted three assists.
Their defensemen were camped out in front of freshman Steve Michalek's cage and the puck trickled over the line for the 1-0 advantage and his 11th goal of the season.
Harvard had a golden chance to tie the score in the last two minutes of the period as rookie Colin Blackwell broke into the offensive zone with a burst of speed, but his snapshot was padded away by BU senior Kieran Millan.
"He has stepped in right away," said Harvard head coach and former Bruins star Ted Donato. "His line [with Eric Kroshus and Luke Grenier] has given us some depth and allowed us to come into the game on a hot streak."
Both teams took nine shots on goal in the opening 20 minutes, while BU had a slight 20-17 edge in total chances.
BU made it 2-0 at 7:30 of the second period as junior Wade Megan was on the spot on the short side to beat Michalek for his 13th of the season, which broke a three-game skid without a goal.
Megan scored again at the 14:02 mark, taking advantage of Sahir Gill's forced-turnover in the left corner. The puck came out in front to an open Megan for his second of the game, flipping a nice backhander up and over Michalek.
Harvard got itself on the scoreboard on the power play at 15:27 as junior Marshall Everson found an open Alex Killorn between the circles for his team-leading 15th goal of the season.
The goal broke a two-game scoreless streak for the senior alternate captain. He posted three goals during Harvard's weekend set against Yale and Brown on Jan. 27 and 28.
The Crimson held an 11-10 shots edge in the period, while taking three more total chances.
Harvard had some strong offensive chances in the final period, including a 10-6 advantage in shots on goal. For the game, Harvard had a 30-25 overall edge.
With the win, BU advances to its 49th-all time Beanpot final and has competed in 26 of the previous 29.
"We are obviously frustrated," said Donato. "Give BU a lot of credit, they jumped out ahead…and Millan made it very hard for us to get back in the game."
BU's Kieran Millan made 29 saves in the contest and improved to 15-8-1 on the season. Despite exiting after 36:15, Michalek suffered the loss for the sixth time on the year.
The Terriers return to action on Friday night at Agganis Arena when they take on UMass for the final time this season. BU has outscored the Minutemen 7-6 in the previous two meetings this season and has finished 1-0-1. A win in Friday's season finale would ensure a season win and tiebreaker in the Hockey East standings.
Harvard returns to the Bright Hockey Center on Friday evening to take on ECAC Hockey rival RPI. The Engineers are ranked last (12th) in the conference this year with a 4-10-2 record.

Shanghai to Probe Yum Handling of Chicken That Failed Tests
Shanghai said it plans to investigate if Yum! Brands Inc. properly dealt with test results that showed some chicken the company received from distributors contained excessive levels of antibiotics.
The Shanghai Food and Drug Administration said tests conducted by a third-party agency from 2010-2011 found eight batches of chicken supplied to Yum by Liuhe Group Co. had levels of antibiotics that didn't meet prescribed standards. Yum, which operates the KFC and Pizza Hut chains in China, was made aware of these results, the agency said on its website yesterday.
State-broadcaster China Central Television prompted greater scrutiny of the nation's poultry industry this week when it reported suppliers including Liuhe weren't properly inspecting chicken bought from farmers in Shandong province for antibiotics and hormones. Yum, in a statement posted on its official KFC microblog in China, said after the CCTV report that it stopped buying from Liuhe in August this year.
Yum spokeswomen Amy Sherwood and Virginia Ferguson didn't immediately respond to an e-mail today seeking comment.

July 9, 2013: Boca Cosmetics Group's Olez® Brings the Most Advanced Keratin System to Las Vegas
Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) July 09, 2013
Olez Advanced® is set to launch at Cosmoprof North America, taking place July 14-16, 2013 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
Boca Cosmetics Group, manufacturers of the most innovative hair care systems in the industry, announces the launch of Olez Advanced® Smoothing System, the most effective, color safe, toxin and restriction-free smoothing system to date.
Olez Advanced® contains Synergistic Blending Technology which compounds exotic ingredients like coconut, Inca and Quinoa oils extracted from the Amazon Rain Forest, with amino acids and nutrients. This allows for the deep absorption of the treatment into the hair follicle during application. Once absorbed, Olez Advanced® is shampooed BEFORE blow-drying and sealing with a flatiron, which dramatically reduces the styling time and eliminates fumes, smoke, color oxidation and waxy buildup.
Olez Advanced® is the only keratin smoothing system on the market that guarantees no color change, no restrictions, and lasting results for up to 30 shampoos. Its spray bottle allows for application in about an hour.
Response to Olez Advanced® has been overwhelming with over 40,000 units sold in the past few months.
Attendees of this weekend's Cosmoprof North America will be able to see the results for themselves at booth D23210 where models will be displaying their before and after results with Olez Advanced®. They are also able to request a FREE 2 oz. sample (One full application).
Non attendees interested in receiving a free 2 oz. Advanced Keratin Smoothing System may request a sample by registering as a professional at http://www.olez.com and sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

"Walk down the aisle?" I harumphed. "It doesn't look that way, does it? This is my WEDDING DAY and the groom's family haven't turned up." A perfect spring day, plumped with possibility and excitement, had shrivelled into catastrophe.
One hundred and eighty guests had been seated for over an hour in a small wedding chapel in France. A heavily-treading usher had informed us that the groom's family still hadn't appeared. Looking into the chapel, I could see an impatient congregation twitching feverishly.
"Do you think they haven't turned up because their Jewish son is getting married in a chapel?" I hissed. "But we promised that there would be no Christian references! And there's the Jewish ceremony tomorrow." Marching my way up and down the room, I tore out petals from my balding bouquet. "Don't worry, darling. They will turn up. I'm sure of it," said my mother. The catch in her throat sent a gallop of panic up my stomach which settled and thickened in my throat.
My fiancé, Oliver, and I had been together for seven years. We met during our respective years abroad, in Sydney, Australia. "I'm Jewish, you know" he had told me over a glass of wine. "Oh right," I had said. "And my family are all Christians." The implications of this conversation had been muted by the neon-coloured booze and thrum of music.
It was only on our return to London and things were getting serious, that I realised how this was going to play out: "I'm sorry, but you can't meet my parents," Oliver had grimaced one night. "My family won't allow you in the house."
"What? But last week I was coming with you to your brother's wedding?"
"Hmmm. I think my parents thought you were Jewish. You are called Rebecca, after all. But then your surname came out."
I was finally invited by Oliver's brother and sister-in-law to the circumcision of their son. It was the first time I would meet all of his family and it was a black silence that welcomed me to the bris.
One lady, eyebrows triangulating in horror, turned her back on me. After months of diplomacy and tears, Oliver's parents asked me to witness the wonderful traditions of a Friday night supper. I was welcomed, but with reports of one in two Jews marrying out, they were wary of a Christian girl from Chelsea.
As Oliver's mother and father started to accept me, my job as a journalist took me to Jordan. A recent terrorist attack had blown apart a wedding in Amman and Oliver's parents, on account of his Jewish upbringing, were terrified about letting him visit. The ensuing rows threatened a family breakdown, non-stop screams shattering the quiet Radlett streets. Oliver boldly went against his parents' wishes and booked a return ticket to the Middle East. In doing so, the message he sent to his parents was set in stone as solid as the the Ten Commandments.
When I returned to England, Oliver proposed. Navigating the wedding wishes of both sets of parents proved tricky. My parents were set on a traditional Christian white wedding and Oliver's parents, after realising I wouldn't convert, wanted a non-demoninational occasion. Months of rows led to the break-up of our engagement.
"I can't do this anymore," I had cried. "Me too," Oliver replied, chewing his lip.
After two months of misery and separation, we stumbled upon a resolution to please both parties. Over a year-and-a-half of planning and three massive wedding celebrations were needed to satisfy everyone. Forget a Jewish Princess – I was like the Queen! The whole situation was so fraught that neither of us had a moment to assimilate our feelings about our own religious ideals.
It was only when I started writing a book about my experiences of marrying into a Jewish family, that I could begin to make sense of the complex emotions of trying to retain my own identity while respecting that of my boyfriend's.
As I sat in my wedding dress praying for Oliver and his family to appear, I had a moment of clarity. As the band desperately clung on to the last note of Handel's Xerxes for Largo for the tenth time, I realised that I could never solve the problem of not being Jewish.
I could, though, use the foundations of my own religious background to face whatever was thrown at me with dignity, grace and courage.Learn more »

NBA Unlikely To Go To Seattle
In his first official days on the job, NBA commissioner Adam Silver is holding the stance that the league is not ready to add an expansion team in the eager and deep-pocketed Seattle market.
"Seattle is a wonderful market. It would be very additive to the league to have a team there," Silver said in an interview this week with ESPN. "But we're not planning on expanding right now so it's not a function of price."
Silver's comments come at a time when momentum for putting a team in Seattle had been gaining steam. Earlier this season, influential Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said "there's a good chance of [expansion] happening but I have no idea when.

Created by successful television producer J.J. Abrams (ALIAS), LOST has become one of the most popular and critically acclaimed programmes of its day. The story concerns the survivors of a terrible plane crash, who find themselves stranded on a tropical island with seemingly little chance of a rescue. Medical doctor Jack takes a position of leadership, helping to rally the survivors and prepare them for a period of difficulty as they learn how to survive on the paradisaical island. But everything is most definitely not as it seems, and as the series progresses the island's many dangers and mysteries are revealed; including evidence that the plane crash may not have been an accident after all. As they struggle to survive, each of the characters forms alliances and makes enemies, all while dealing with the unresolved issues of the lives they've left behind. LOST distills the difficulties of society down to their essence, exploring these problems with compelling characters and with a setting that's equal parts paradise and mystery.

Quick delivery, easy website to use. Will use it again and would recommend to friends.
For anyone who never watched it on tv it's worth taking a chance on, however I only saw series' 1-4 on tv so even I don't know what it ends like, but as long as you stick with it and make sure you don't miss anything, it's incredible
Great service from ordering to free delivery
A very good series. Very well written.
I saw every episode on television, except for the first two, so I'm very glad to have finally watched these missing episodes. And even though I missed the beginning and things got weirder and weirder I never quit watching. This series has got some great main characters (and therefore actors), Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley, John, ... I'm back at season 3 and I'm still enjoying it!
I don't normally leave reviews but this is one of the best things I have seen! Every episode is amazing and keeps you glued to your screen anticipating what will happen next. Delivery was very quick and price was the best I have seen anywhere. Definitely recommend!
Just as we remembered but with all those missing eposodes
Finding the item I required was easy, and at a reasonable price. Delivery was expedited in good time. Thanks
Been after this boxset for ages bit pricey everywhere else, glad I found it on zavvi cheap came quick and in mint condition :)
Was extremely happy with the Zavvi service - kept in the loop with when the product would be sent out to me. Excellent price and the product arrived in one piece very quickly. Brilliant boxset and can't wait to watch it again.
Have purchased as a christmas gift for my son so not actually opened yet but he will be delighted as he is watching season2 (I think ) at the moment that he has downloaded but he has to watch it downstairs so with this set he can watch in his room. Very fast delivery saying it's almost Christmas and a good price as Zavvi usually is.
This arrived in good time although they did say it could take up to 2 weeks but they kept updating me and it arrived sooner than expected. Perfect condition. Can't wait to watch it from the start again. Loved the show when it was on TV. Highly recommended. Amazing price, lowest I've seen it.

Bought as gift for my husband's birthday. Very pleased with Zavvi.com for the great price, and that it was delivered when they said it would be. Can't wait to start watching the dvd's now. Would definitely buy from the site again. Thank you very much.
Lost is one of those shows that constantly gets criticised for not ending the way people hoped it would. That's a bit unfair, as, although there are plenty of unanswered questions (why do the numbers have power? what is Walt? why is there a bird which squawks Hurley's name?), the important ones do get answered. By the end of season 6, we know what the island is, why the survivors were brought there, and how they are important. Plus, the characters are (moslty) a well-written and interesting bunch, with one major exception being Michael and his endless yelling of Waaaaalt! Basically, if you've never seen Lost before, watch at least the first two episodes (Pilot parts one and two). If you enjoy them, keep watching. The show then changes at the start of season 3, but if you still like the show a few episodes into that season, push through until the end. It has its off episodes, like every show, but overall, it is an immensely satisfying and enjoyable watch. A/N: Yes, this review is incredibly vague on the details, but Lost is show that thrives on you not knowing what happens next, so I didn't want to give anything away.
Lost is well worth the effort and by that i don't mean it is hard to watch, I'm referring to the ending which for me and many was not as satisfying as the rest of the show. The rest of the show is great with some solid acting and plenty of twists and turns that keep you hooked from the first episode.
Lost This is a unusual story , it is a part survival and part science fiction film that takes a while to get going as it builds up the different characters roles with in the story. If you like a story with a difference with lots of twist and turns well scripted this is for you. Alan
pity its about the product and not the service because the service was what impressed me the lost dvd box set is what it is. Its the service that matters and zavvi.com delivered thank you.
I started watching this on tv never got round to seeing all, now I can watch it whenever I please & for a price I can not believe. I am so pleased with this set.
I haven't watched them all yet, the only one I haven't seen is season 6, but am starting from the beginning. Excellent series and an amazing price from Zavvi. Thank you.
First time using Zavvi, very impressed with the fast delivery and safely packaged item, will be using them again! Set bought for my 20 yr old Son for Christmas after he borrowed the first series from a friend and really enjoyed it so was delighted to pick up this set for such a good price!
Brilliant series, there's not much to dislike. When you get to the end google it to make sure you understand it properly. =D
Great price and just what I was looking for.
This is a fantastic series. Having missed a few episodes here and there, I decided to but the box set at a later date. Having seen this fantastic offer on Zavvi. I purchased it straight away. I havn't stopped watching it. Now I can watch and control to my leisure. Thanks. Well recomended
Lost Complete Seasons is an excellent series, as soon as you start watching it's addictive! Make sure you have loads of spare time because one episode is never enough! Well worth the money.
Lost Complete Seasons 1-6 Box Set is excellent viewing. Forgot how good the series actually was.
Great TV show that is truly a must have in any collection.
I just started watching it as I have never seen it before! Now I can't turn it off it's so enthralling. Don't plan to do anything for the next few months when you buy this Lost Complete Seasons 1-6 Box Set.
Lost Complete Seasons 1-6 Box Set is an excellent TV series. It' great entertainment!
Fantastic box set, fantastic price, highly recommend.
Love this boxset it's one of the best series ever and what a fab price too 5* all the way :)
Absolutely brilliant, couldn't even buy a used set cheaper. Lost Seasons 1-6 was delivered within a couple of days of ordering. I will definitely be purchasing more from Sendit.
As the title states the product is great and the price we paid was great (fantastic even) but the dispatch time not so much. To be fair once it was dispatched in arrive quickly and well packaged. I would definitely use again and at the price it was worth waiting the extra time but if Zavvi can sort out their dispatch times they would get 5 stars every time.
I really enjoyed watching Lost Complete Seasons 1-6 again. I had some marathon sessions as I didn't want to stop!
I'm dead happy. I'm already onto Season 5 or 6 of Lost, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it all wraps up (or doesn't). Overall, it's a very good watch, even though it is a bit too drawn out in the middle. Would recommend it.
I am really pleased with my purchase of Lost Seasons 1-6 Box Set, delivery and service was great, and the show itself is amazing!
The Lost series that I recently purchased is really good except that I was not aware that when you buy dvds you should make sure that you are in the right region. When I tried to play the DVDs they would not work in my DVD player. I put them in my computer and they still wouldn't work until I changed the region. Except for this, I am really enjoying the Lost collection. I have ordered other DVD collections since.
Thoroughly enjoyable series. Watched it on tv 2 years ago but didn't get to see series 6 so was very pleased to see it at a good price at Zavvi's. Really looking forward to seeing it from beginning to end. ***
I searched the net looking for the best deals for this box set....I was a total Lost geek when it was on air. I even got up at stupid o'clock to watch the final episode!! I was really impressed with the price at Zavvi, and the free postage was an added bonus. Quick delivery, definitely use the site again!!
Fantastic price. Bought in early as a Xmas present as price was too good not to buy. So much cheaper than any other sites I accessed.
Loved this when it was on terrestrial TV. However with all good things it went over to a non terrestrial being, so from series 3 onwards I missed it. Have been keeping an eye on the price to resume watching the series again and when Zavvi had this on for the price and then with an extra 10% off, I could resist no longer. In fact I believe it is cheaper than some people pay for their non terrestrial television. I would never get the use out of this, so can now at least watch each and every episode as and when I like and can fit it in to my busy schedule! - Love it, if you have never seen it before, you might just like it and a bargain to boot!
What a fantastic box set, this is a wonderful and intriguing series and its well worth watching. The seasons come in a neat box which keeps them snug together while also looking like its expensive, which is a plus for people who pride there DVD collections. This is the cheapest price you will find on the internet all others are moderately more expensive, sendit also dispatch and delivery goods very quick and efficiently. The box set includes all season separated by season like you would get if you bought them individually, but at a much cheaper price. Excellent value for money, a must buy!
For starters, the box is a pretty basic cardboard slip case, which looks nice and compact. The discs are in very nice plastic cases, which replace the cardboard slipcases the individual seasons usually come in. I found these could easily break and end up looking tatty if not careful, so smart plastic cases is definitely a big plus for this product. At £49.95 this is an amazing price for what you get (actually the cheapest around). You get all six seasons plus loads of extras in a smart and compact boxset. And, of course, you are getting an amazing series! The whole show is addictive. From the opening scenes of the Pilot episode. If you are into mystery/drama/suspense, then Lost is definitely something you will enjoy. Don't be shy get this box-set, its an amazing series.
Lost is pure genius. The twists and turns around every corner make it impossible to predict and leaves you asking many questions, but mixed in with light hearted one liners and funny sections so that you aren't completely thrown in at the deep end. You will fall in love with each character and their independent, intricate back stories and really feel like you've known these people for a long time. Overall Lost is an action packed, thrilling, funny series that any audience can enjoy!
It is so hard to find a gift for my boyfriend, let alone one i know he likes! So when i looked around and found that zavvi was cheaper than amazon, it was great as the money isn't exactly flowing this year. & it really helps that it has free delivery!
This has to be one of the most intelligent and thought provoking shows in recent years with an outstanding cast of actors and superb script. It is not until you watch the show all the way through in one go from beginning to end that you truly appreciate the depth and thought that has gone into creating it. It is a show that makes you think about what you are watching, throwing puzzles at you along the way and even at the end leaving one or two questions unanswered. Some might think this is a terrible flaw in the show but I disagree - it compels the viewer to continue to think about possible solutions and theories. That is not to say that this show does not have its minus points - every show does but in this case they are few and far between and in my opinion, can easily be forgiven when taking the show in as a whole. I would recommend anyone disheartened with the first viewing or anyone who could not get their head around the puzzles and questions to definitely watch the show again in sequence with this collection - it will be a rewarding and illuminating viewing experience. The price here is an absolute bargain; I searched thoroughly beforehand and could not find anywhere else cheaper than this!
After spending a day searching the web for Lost the complete box set, I was very pleased to come accross this site with the best price any where on the net. I was purchasing this for my Dad's birthday gift and was very pleased as was he to get this at such a good price and excellent delivery. I would absolutely reccomend that you use this site as a first option! :-)
A superb price, an amazing offer! It's a great box set with days of footage to watch and as it's all series it's a must to buy even if you have or haven't seen any list before. A great present for Christmas too. Buy it don't hesitate.
This is the cheapest I have found anywhere, you have to pay £30-£35 for season 6 alone, so all series for £59.95 is a steal. Buy, buy, buy.

What things to say to make a girl feel special?

Whatever you say, make sure you actually mean it. Compliment small things like if shes had her hair done or wearing new clothes/shoes. But make sure it's true, no-one likes a liar.
Ideally you shouldnt really say things for the sake of it, its better if you mean them, but if you know she has insecurities, compliment those. For example if she dislikes her feet, tell her she has pretty feet
"The PIN number is 5274" usually does the trick, whilst handing over your debit card.
N.B. Not my real PIN.

My boyfriend said to me earlier at work he saw a girl wearing the same top as I was wearing the day before and that she looked nowhere near as good as I did in it that made me feel pretty special.
I think it's a compliment that's not supposed to be perceived as a compliment on face value that makes it special if that makes sense? Don't make it sound like it's strained and as if you're searching for ways to compliment her just for the sake of it.

Double bluff?
Although this could be quadruple... but it's actually quintuple.
Incase you haven't noticed, I don't say nice things. And in fact its often a bit of a running joke with some of them that I don't. So when one slips out by mistake, its all the more special to her that I've said it. And it provides some good laughs trying to cover it up quickly.
The nicest compliments are unexpected and genuine.
Don't try and steal phrases from other people... Instead, whenever you think something flattering or sweet about your girlfriend, just say it out loud. That's really all she's after.
Just say what you mean, dont lie, or else she'll know you just want rumpy-pumpy.
Show appreciation about the things you like about her.
Text her after you've seen her that day...tell her you enjoyed whatever you did or simply that it was good to see her today
Randomly text her (and I mean randomly) and tell her I love her... and MEAN it.

What things could i say to make her feel special?
Big expensive gifts are not the answer.
try small things that spark a memory of you being together.
hold her hand,
ask all about her day, you dont have to say much, but she will appreciate you listening.
surprise her with a flower.
send her a random txt message saying how much she means to you.
kiss her when she is least expecting it.
fix her fringe so you can see her face better (even if she doesnt have one!),
tell her she smells good if she has perfume on or hair syrum.
come up behind her and hug her for no reason.
when you meet up with her make sure you try to be in a good mood and smile.
give her a cheeky pinch on her leg or bum when no one is looking.
take her out for a picnic but dont tell her where you are going.
take her to her fave store and tell her she can have anything she wants as a treat.
organise a romantic meal, cooked by you
tell her a joke (nothing rude) perhaps a little pathetic, every so often
send her a bunch of flowers to be delivered to her school/workplace
do something new together, eg swimming, going for a run
before you kiss run your fingers through her hair
tell her something she never knew aout you, like a strange habbit
tickle her when she least expects it
act silly for a day. make a pact to do something silly for the whole day to see who can last the longest
wear an odd tshirt just to make her laugh
i hope there is enough for you!!
Offline0ReputationRep:Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you.... The one who turns to his friends and says, 'that's her.'"

Today, he notes, "we imprison more people than any other country in the world," and "crack is still talked about as a black problem." Coincidence?
The Democratic nominee is making an appeal to GOP members opposed to Donald Trump. Her unspoken message: The stakes for the party's dissenters are too high for halfway measures and bet hedging.
The worst of the many offenses revealed in the latest WikiLeaks case is that Bernie Sanders was undemocratically deprived of fair play in the Democratic primary.
The idea of the United States lecturing Cuba or any other country about human rights comes down somewhere between embarrassing and nauseating.
Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other "Left, Right & Center" panelists take on the missing-in-debate-action candidate, Donald Trump, and his chances of clinching a Republican win in the Hawkeye State.
"All you gotta do in politics is say the right thing, even though your whole record is contrary, and you're on your way," Nader says.
By Robert Scheer
In the premiere episode of KCRW's "Scheer Intelligence," Truthdig's editor-in-chief sits down with John Dean, the former Nixon legal adviser who blew the lid off the Watergate scandal. In this podcast, Dean offers his take on the misuse of power under the guise of national security—both during the Nixon era and today.
The documentary spotlights the riveting 1968 exchanges between Gore Vidal and William F. Buckley that set the bar for political TV and helped frame America's culture wars.
Addicted to the gutter politics that ruined him, Richard Nixon was—as an English earl once said of the warlord Oliver Cromwell—"a great, bad man."
Just how and when did the military-industrial complex become the military-intelligence complex? And what's the link between Amazon and the Pentagon?

Like every young reporter at the Post, I was scared to death of him at first.
The mass media set the parameters of acceptable debate. Cross those parameters, as the investigative journalist Gary Webb did, and you are turned into a pariah.
When I first witnessed a blood-red Alabama sunset, I thought of the Gudger and Ricketts families, their backs bent under the heavy bags of cotton, looking at this biblical ending to their long day of toil. The urge to re-read Agee was overwhelming.
Had Bill Clinton heeded the glaring signs of the sea change ushered in by that now-infamous scene from a boat in Bimini called the Monkey Business in the spring of 1987, he could have spared himself, not to mention the rest of the country, a big hassle during his presidency.
The Obama administration has resorted to airstrikes to try to stop the wave of ISIS fighters sweeping Iraq. "Left, Right & Center" panelist Robert Scheer, Truthdig's editor-in-chief, says of questions about U.S. involvement: "The military solution causes more problems than it solves. … This nation building stuff is madness. The Iraqis should make their own history and defeat [ISIS]."
Republican lawmakers compared Barack Obama's White House to the secretive Nixon administration Thursday, denouncing its response to the 2012 attack on a U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya.
On Wednesday the United States Supreme Court further loosened restrictions on campaign funding, adding momentum to the money = speech (not to mention corporations are people too) rationale exemplified by the top court's Citizens United ruling in 2010.
Sometimes popular culture and politics collide in delightful and titillating ways. Perhaps the best example is "The President Meets the King." Until now?
Proving again that being a first lady of a P5+1 nation is a heady role indeed, with all the outfit-matching and advanced-degree-downplaying and whatnot, two top spouses from a pair of uneasy superpower bedfellow countries just took up a diplomatic tradition inaugurated by Pat Nixon.

The actions of Republican governors to deny the working poor access to health care is simply a continuation of the divide-and-conquer politics that have informed Republican strategy since Richard Nixon.
Daniel Ellsberg / ellsberg.net
Daniel Ellsberg was able to remain in the U.S. after leaking the Pentagon Papers because, "The country I stayed in was a different America, a long time ago," he argues in an op-ed Sunday. Edward Snowden would be greeted with a much different fate, Ellsberg notes, and as a result, he disagrees with those who compare Snowden to him unfavorably because of the NSA whistle-blower's exit from the U.S.
White House/Pete Souza
Let's state this very simply, so everybody will understand. The notion that Barack Obama is "Nixonian"—or that his administration's recent troubles bear any resemblance to "Watergate"—is the biggest media lie since the phony "Whitewater scandal" crested during the Clinton presidency.
A look at the day's political happenings, including a GOP candidate once trying to criminalize not reporting a miscarriage to police and Bob Woodward delivers some bad news for Republicans.

Less than four months after Barack Obama's inauguration, the right-wing propaganda machine is already promoting the only imaginable conclusion to a Democratic administration that dares to achieve a second term: impeachment.
Richard Nixon, who would have turned 100 on Wednesday, endures as the commanding figure of American political life since the end of World War II. His style, achievements and failures persist nearly two decades after his death.

The judge's death Wednesday brings to mind his singular moment: the Senate's rejection of his Supreme Court nomination in 1987. The criticism and assault against him marked a sea change in the process of both nominations and confirmations.

Fedspeak, vague and convoluted answers to economic questions, was popularized by Alan Greenspan, chairman of the Federal Reserve from 1987 to 2006. It allowed him to essentially say "no comment" without admitting that he was avoiding questions.

The history books will tell you Richard Nixon won the 1972 election, that George McGovern went down to the worst defeat of any presidential candidate in history. But those who write history do not take into account the moral or the good, what is right or what is wrong, what endures and what does not.

I thought it would be helpful if people who are always hearing and reading about the "repression of dissidents" in Cuba and jump to their defense could also hear the other side: What happened to the thousands of people whose lives were affected by the actions of terrorists from inside and outside the country.

Just after a U.S. spy plane was shot down in 1969, President Nixon appears to have ordered nuclear bombers to prepare to attack targets in North Korea, but he quickly changed his mind. More extensive plans (one with the Bush-esque name of "Freedom Drop") for nuclear strikes on as many as 16 North Korean targets were also devised.

My late friend Ron Silver, the actor and political activist, once asked me a question that I have continued to think about ever since. On the afternoon of his last New Year's Eve, when he surprised me by coming to California, he wanted to know if I had found any great "big history" books.

Public figures understandably fuss over their reputations and how they will be remembered. Recent news brought to mind two prominent figures of their moment: Colin Powell and Robert McNamara.

It was the stark evil Robert McNamara perpetrated as secretary of defense that must indelibly frame our memory of him. To not speak out fully because of respect for the deceased would be to mock the memory of the millions he caused to be maimed and killed in a war that he later freely admitted never made any sense.

On Tuesday, the National Archives made public more than 150 hours of tape and tens of thousands of pages of previously unreleased documents from the Nixon administration. Some of the gems include new details into Watergate and Vietnam as well as three newly declassified pages on Israel's secret plans to build a nuclear weapon.
Last September, during the American presidential campaign, I wrote a column declaring that the United States had again invaded Cambodia, only this time "Cambodia" was Pakistan. President George W. Bush had ordered U.S. ground attacks on the Taliban inside Pakistan's Tribal Territories, without Pakistan's authorization.
The Nixon tapes have yielded untold, er, riches over the years, and here's yet another nugget, featuring Nixon in a wide-ranging conversation with Bob Haldeman and John Erlichman on the subject of homosexuality. The discussion begins with a dissection of an episode of "All in the Family" and then spins off to such topics as how homosexuality "destroyed the Greeks," the Roman Empire and San Francisco.

"Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace braved the "liberal wind," according to his colleague James P. Pinkerton, by defending George W. Bush from a gaggle of lefties eager to compare Bush to Richard Nixon at a Washington, D.C., screening of Ron Howard's film "Frost/Nixon."

The times are unprecedented. Not since 1861 have we watched the last gasps of an outgoing administration with such anxiety. Then the nation was concerned with drift and inertia; now we watch for further ideological mischief.

Along with iOS 8, Apple has today released a software update 7.0 that works only with the 3rd gen. Apple TV.

Mercyhurst women fall short in NCAA regatta finals bid
INDIANAPOLIS -- The Mercyhurst women's rowing team came up empty in its bid to earn berths in today's title races at the NCAA Division II championship regatta, held at Eagle Creek Park.
But one of the Lakers' two entrants -- the varsity eight -- will be in action today, competing in the 9:40 a.m. petite final against Central Oklahoma. Mercyhurst's other entrant -- the varsity four -- competed in Saturday's repechage with a spot in today's national championship race on the line, but the Lakers were eliminated by Western Washington.
The Lakers trailed by 2.5 seconds at the halfway point but trimmed the margin to just more than 2 seconds with 500 meters remaining. But they could not close the gap, and Western Washington prevailed by a little more than 4 seconds to earn a spot in today's title race.
In the varsity eight repechage, Mercyhurst battled Barry University, Western Washington and Central Oklahoma, with the top two finishers advancing to today's championship event and the other two making it in the petite final.
The Lakers were in last place 500 meters into the race. Mercyhurst picked up its pace and wound up in third place behind winner Barry and runner-up Western Washington.

To the re-education centre . . .
Published 01/04/2009 | 00:00
One of the most worrying phrases we hear every day is the chilling mantra: "You have to be careful what you say these days" as if somehow the Smile Stasi are lurking around every corner, awaiting the next unwitting citizen to break the language laws.
And, whenever someone points this out, they're accused of being some sort of fascist fear monger who just wants to gratuitously offend everyone. Which, in relation to this column, can be assumed to be reasonably accurate. But that's not the point.
Just look at the case of Tory councillor Jonathan Yardley, who spent two hours as a guest of the Her Majesty's Thought Police the other day -- for making a joke that someone thought was homophobic.
At a constituency presentation, guests were given a handset and asked to press button A if they were men and button B if they were women.
And, when someone asked what they should do if they were transsexual, Yardley joked that they should press both buttons.
In fairness, it's hard to know what to say to these people. This column once did a piece on a cross-dressing club and when we pointed out to the person in drag doing our hair and make-up that the only way we'd know he was a man was from his hands.
They stopped, pulled the wig painfully tight and snarled: "I'm a f***ing woman, you ignorant bastard."
Honestly, there's no pleasing some people.
You probably know the heart-rending story of Lonesome George, the ageing relic that is the last of his kind and faces extinction due to his inability to adapt to the modern world.
(And then there's George, the Galapagos tortoise that faces a similar fate.)
So it is with a degree of sympathy this column must bring you the news that our old friend George Galloway has had his appeal against a barring order from entering Canada turned down.
Those nasty Canadians have banned him from the country because of his open support for the charming Islamofascists of Hamas.
Defending himself, lonesome George said: "I support democracy. I don't support Hamas. I was making the donation to the government."
And the government is? Yup, Hamas.

I worked already a bit with Expression Web, and it's an intuitive css designer indeed. Something I do miss a lot in Visual Studio 2005, is Intellisense for your style definitions, so that if you add a style-class to an html element, you don't have to look up every time your style classes in the css-stylesheet. This is a feature that is already for a long time available in other html-designers (ie DreamWeaver), but luckily it's now alsow available in Expression Web.

Ben Affleck has been a busy guy lately -- what with postponing his wedding, patching things up with Jennifer Lopez and buying a hunting license. But one North Carolina woman says the actor also found time to stalk and threaten her.
Affleck is denying allegations by the woman, Tara Ray, who filed a private citizen's warrant accusing him of "communicating threats" against her, Britain's Sky News reports.
Ray claims Affleck, 31, followed her as she drove home from Raleigh, N.C., on Sept. 25 and then threatened to hurt her. She also claims she has been in a relationship with the actor since February 2002.
"I honestly believed my life was in danger," she said. "I'm not out for the publicity part. I just wanted it to be known in the public that he's very capable of doing this to me."
Affleck's spokesman in New York, Ken Sunshine, describes Ray's allegation as "absurd and defamatory. He has no idea who this woman is."
The rep also says Affleck was at his home near Savannah, Ga., on the day in question and that there were "probably at least 50 paparazzi" who could attest to that fact.
In Georgia, a Kure Beach police spokesman told Sky News that the department "has not and is currently not investigating Mr. Affleck for any crime. This warrant was taken out by a private citizen."

When I was in college in the early 1980s, letters—on paper, in ink, with self-licked stamps and everything—were the primary form of communication. Cell phones, Facebook, and e-mail were inconceivable; the payphone in the hallway was noisy and unreliable. And so, like every college student of that era, I wrote letters.
