How to Make Petit Fours
Petit fours are small decorative cakes that only look intimidating to make. It is simple to make petit fours with these steps. You can make them all year round since they can be decorated to fit any occasion.
1Bake cake according to instructions and let cool completely. You can save time by using a pre-made sponge or pound cake.
2Cut into 1-inch thick small shapes, such as squares or rectangles if using a knife or use small cookie cutters of any shape. Cut the 1-inch cakes in half lengthwise. Place cakes onto a cookie sheet, waxed paper or aluminum foil.
3Make simple syrup by stirring equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to a slight boil while constantly stirring. Allow to cool for about 1 minute. Add any flavoring, such as vanilla extract if desired, and stir. Spoon simple syrup lightly over the cakes. Let sit until syrup mixture is soaked into cakes.
4Spoon a small amount of desired filling, such as frosting, thick creams, fruit preserves or curd evenly on the bottom cake layer without dripping any filling out onto the sides of the cake. Place the top of the cake on and press down lightly. Assemble the rest of the cakes.
5Put the filled cakes onto a wire rack or flat strainer that has a sheet of waxed paper, aluminum foil or cookie sheet underneath to catch drips.
6Make a simple fondant icing glaze by combining 2/3 cup corn syrup into 2/3 cup hot water in a saucepan. Stir until the corn syrup is dissolved. Whisk cupfuls of powdered sugar in slowly until a smooth consistency forms. Add food coloring and whisk until color is evenly distributed through the mixture.
7Melt chocolate chips in 10 second intervals in the microwave if you prefer a chocolate covering instead of glaze. Stir until smooth.
8Ladle the glaze or chocolate mixture slowly over each cake. Be sure to completely coat all surfaces of the cake. Allow the excess to drip off and once cake has begun to set, pour the mixture over the cakes a second time. Stir or whisk the liquid combination if it starts to become stiff between pouring. Let sit until outer layer of cakes are dry. Or, if you prefer to skip making your own fondant glaze, purchase marzipan sheets, which can be found at specialty food stores, bakeries or craft supply stores. Lay these out onto waxed paper. Mold the sheets around the cakes, covering the top and sides of the cake. Trim off the excess marzipan with a pairing knife.
9Decorate your covered cakes with small candies, edible flowers (these can be purchased at specialty stores) or any cake decorations you chose. Spoon icing into a plastic baggie, seal and then snip off 1 small corner with scissors. Pipe the icing onto the cakes as desired. Form different patterns, bows, flowers, polka dots and other designs.
10Store the bite-sized desserts in a tightly sealed container and refrigerate or freeze until ready to use. Thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.

If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.
- Fondant glaze may become sticky if stored for long periods in the refrigerator. Store prepared cakes in a breathable container and use within 24 hours, or wait to put the glaze on the petit fours until about 1 hour before serving.
- Use plain dental floss or pastry string to cut the cake instead of a knife for clean, crumb free edges.
- Warm marzipan slightly with your hands to make it pliable if the sheets become difficult to work with.

Some adults refer to the 1930s as "the olden times" or "those were the days," while others classify them as "hard times to make ends meet." After all, a Depression was upon us. But as a young farm boy from Western New York, those times were special for me. After all, they were the days of my youth.
Our family farm was located in the Boston Hills, just west of Colden. Rural electrification had not yet arrived. Wood was our chief source of energy. Kerosene lamps were our source of illumination and the kitchen wood stove and a circulating heater served as the main source of heat.
Indoor plumbing was rare in our rural area. It did not come to our home until some years later. The pick-and-shovel-dug well was our source of water, with a hand pump in the kitchen. And with no running water or electricity, clothes washing meant a hand washer and ringer, a wash tub and a wash boiler. Mondays were my mother's traditional day to do the wash. On Tuesdays, she did the ironing, with flat irons heated on the wood stove. Mom made sure my siblings and I always had clean, pressed clothes for school, church and special occasions.
We had a dairy and vegetable farm, and each member of the family had chores to do. There was spring planting, summer cultivating and autumn harvesting. There was the gathering of hay and grain to feed the livestock. And there was the harvesting of vegetables, such as peas, beans, corn, cucumbers, cauliflower and potatoes.
Much of the produce was taken by truck to the Clinton and Bailey vegetable market in Buffalo. Day after day, in the heat or the wind or the rain, the harvest must move forward. One must harvest at just the right time of ripening. A day too soon or a day too late could mean a partial harvest loss. As my Dad would say, "the pickings are slim but we will make ends meet."
There was work time, but there also was some play time. Occasionally, nearing twilight, the neighboring farm youths would gather for a quick softball game, or play hide-and-seek in the hayloft.
And if we were lucky, we might catch, on our battery-powered radio, a segment of "Jack Armstrong" or "The Lone Ranger" or "The Green Hornet," the latter two shows created and written by Fran Striker, a Buffalo native. I remember well sending in two cereal box tops and a self-addressed envelope to receive a special coded ring, the type worn by the Lone Ranger himself when on a secret mission! When the ring arrived, all one could say was, "Oh boy, oh boy!" The words "awesome" and "cool" were not part of our vocabulary.
Our sources of information were the telephone, the newspaper and the radio. Our dial telephone was connected to 10 customers on one party line; most calls were placed through an operator. Our barn radio carried the early morning farm reporter Al Fox, followed by the famous Clint Buehlmann. The Buffalo Evening News, as it was known then, was our chief news source. The first section of the paper Dad always checked was the Farm Produce Market Report.
These are a farm boy's memories of times past. Many things have changed over the years: agricultural practices, living styles and the normal events of each day. For sure, there was something very special about those years. We learned resourcefulness, resilience and responsibility. For you see, in my small world, those days are a treasure trove of memory!

Thought fencing was something practiced in centuries past?
Foiled again!
Fencing is going strong in Jersey City.
Eight members of the Cobra Fencing Club of Jersey City will head to Atlanta, Ga., to compete in the U.S. Summer National Fencing Championships, July 3-7, reports today's Jersey Journal.
Cobra Fencing has 75 kids in the school, which runs daily after school during the year.
Jesse Laffey, a 14-year-old girl who attends St. Dominic Academy, picked up fencing a few years ago and has become one of the nation's top fencers, ranked 11th in the foil.
"It's a good feeling to know hard work has paid
off," said Laffey. "This sport has shown me a lot
about discipline. It keeps me relaxed."
Read the entire story of Corbra Fencing's rise to success in today's Jersey Journal.

NOTE: The AltRider Products are precision engineered for tight exacting tolerances meant to be installed on OEM / stock setups. If you have any aftermarket hardware on your bike which could affect the AltRider part install area or surrounding clearances, your AltRider product may not fit. Please contact us with any questions, before purchasing.
The AltRider oil cooler cover tucks neatly inside the beak of the BMW R 1200 GS, providing protection for the critical and expensive oil cooler. The lightweight, louvered design allows maximum air flow while protecting against rocks, road debris and the occasional branch.
Pre-attached adhesive pads on the guard ensure that it installs in the most effective location, using predetermined places on the oil cooler. The beak of the R 1200 GS wasn't made to carry weight or stress, so it's essential to correctly install the cooler guard. That's why we designed ours so it was nearly impossible to install it any other way.
Clean lines and an aggressive look give this oil cooler guard a distinct appeal that complements and protects your R 1200 GS.
Save yourself hassle and frustration – and the purchase of a new $330 oil cooler – by installing the AltRider oil cooler guard.

President's Message
Ronald C. Ruecker, Director of Public Safety, City of Sherwood, Oregon
Support Law Enforcement by Supporting the IACP Foundation
ver the past several months, I hope that you have noticed the increased activity and visibility of the IACP Foundation and its programs. The foundation is a cause that I, along with the entire IACP leadership, am proud to support, and I am pleased to be able to share some of the ways in which the foundation has had a direct impact on real people in our shared community of professional policing.
If you have not had the opportunity to read about the foundation in recent issues of the Police Chief, I encourage you to take a moment and review the newly dedicated column in the magazine (since April 2008) to learn more about how the foundation started and why we, as police chiefs, should truly take its mission to heart.
One of the taglines frequently associated with the IACP Foundation reads simply, "leadership, scholarship, fellowship." This is a succinct, but accurate, representation of how the foundation defines its purpose in the law enforcement community. One of the key objectives of the foundation is to support the IACP's Center for Police Leadership (CPL) and its flagship curriculum, the Leadership in Police Organizations training course.
In addition to the CPL, the foundation also offers opportunities for professional development in leadership training for active law enforcement officers by providing scholarships to the prestigious Northwestern University Center for Public Safety's 10-week School of Police Staff and Command, as well as a full one-year scholarship to Grantham University. The recipients of these scholarships are highlighted in the foundation column in this issue of the Police Chief.
The notion of scholarship support through the IACP Foundation also extends to the surviving family members of officers fallen or permanently disabled in the line of duty. This year, the foundation is proud to be able to defray continuing education costs for three scholarship recipients.
Amanda is an incoming college freshman whose father, a Florida law enforcement officer, was struck by a vehicle and permanently disabled; Cheryl, the widow of a New Mexico law enforcement officer who died while saving a drowning boy; and Carey, a returning student to the University of Texas at Tyler, whose mother is a former Texas corrections officer who was assaulted on duty and permanently disabled. These recipients will be highlighted in the October issue of the Police Chief.
The foundation also helps foster leadership among the international community through its Global Enrichment Program (GEP), providing the opportunity for law enforcement professionals from underrepresented nations to receive a complimentary two-year membership to the IACP.
Finally, the foundation promotes the advancement of professional policing by providing no-cost training CDs to departments upon request on such topics as emergency driving, railway collision investigation, and community safety.
The IACP Foundation is truly able to touch lives through its programs. Each of these scholarship recipients is a real human being with a face and a story. And every law enforcement agency that receives assistance, through membership or no-cost training tools, benefits from the foundation's work.
The foundation is supported by contributions from you, the members, as well as through the participation of corporate partners dedicated to the delivery of high-quality programs to the law enforcement community. You can donate easily, through the IACP Foundation Web site (www.theiacpfoundation.org) or through the annual giving appeal included with the dues renewal process at the end of the year.
However, if you are looking for a more dynamic way to become involved in the foundation, please consider joining us at the IACP Foundation's Second Annual Fundraising Gala and Silent Auction, to be held in conjunction with the 115th Annual IACP Conference in San Diego.
On Saturday, November 8, at the Manchester Grand Hyatt, best-selling author Joseph Wambaugh will be the keynote speaker at the gala dinner, with all proceeds benefiting the programs and initiatives of the foundation. Last year's event with former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani raised over $100,000, and both foundation board and staff hope to exceed that amount in San Diego. (Individual tickets are $200 each and seating is limited; corporate tables are available. Click here to see the full-page ad and click here to access the registration form.)
It is through the fellowship of professional policing, by way of the IACP Foundation, that we can multiply our combined ability to achieve real, meaningful change for the global law enforcement family. ■
From The Police Chief, vol. LXXV, no. 9, September 2008. Copyright held by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, 515 North Washington Street, Alexandria, VA 22314 USA.

Shares of Family Dollar (UNKNOWN: FDO.DL ) rose today after solid third-quarter earnings. Sales were up 9% and comps rose early 3%. Despite the good numbers, Motley Fool analyst Jason Moser is reluctant to consider the stock. For one thing, retail giants such as Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT ) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN ) pose an ever-present threat. Moreover, Family Dollar is already facing direct competition from other discount retailers suhc as Big Lots (NYSE: BIG ) and Dollar Tree (NASDAQ: DLTR ) . For those reasons and more, Jason recommends investors avoid the stock.
The retail space is in the midst of the biggest paradigm shift since mail order took off at the turn of last century.

Funny, jazzy, finger-snapping numbers add to the enjoyment and will leave the audience wanting more from these scandalous schemers. Three versatile singers — Sarah Barber, Steven Taylor and Amanda Raddatz — are joined by an instrumental ensemble led by pianist/arranger Deborah Schmit-Lobis. Appropriate for adults and families.

IN MANY WAYS, SHE'S JUST A LITTLE GIRL. SHE adores Barbie, sleeps with her baby blanket and recently butchered her golden bangs because "I didn't know you had to grow them out," she says. "I thought if you cut them, they'd go away." Yet at 13, petite and graceful, with nary a blemish on her china-doll face, Kirsten Dunst already gives glorious hints of the woman to be. "I'm just normal," insists the Burbank, Calif., seventh grader, who stole Brad Pitt's long-dead heart in Interview with the Vampire, then laid claim to Christian Bale's Little Women kiss. "None of the boys at school even like me." Bigger people aren't so blind. "There's something deep happening in Kirsten's eyes, a special quality all the really big stars have," says Little Women director Gillian Armstrong. Kirsten's parents—Inez, an artist, and German-born Klaus, a medical-services executive—hope their baby will keep megastardom at bay. "She's young for her age, and I'm glad," says Inez. Young, perhaps—but wise. "I'd like to grow up and be beautiful," Kirsten says. "I know it doesn't matter...but it doesn't hurt."

The annual race is sponsored by the Tucker Community Foundation, a source for local charitable giving and social investment. The race takes place this year on Saturday, Sept. 28, at 11 a.m. through the streets of Davis.

Here are the latest Whispers we're hearing from our sources throughout the NFC:
• With Cardinals veteran SS Adrian Wilson recently telling the local media that he thought his days could be numbered in the desert, could disgruntled DE Darnell Dockett soon be following suit? It appears Dockett is none too happy with head coach Ken Whisenhunt after being fined at least $100,000 for disobeying a coaching directive near the end of the Week 13 game vs. the Jets and then being held out of the starting lineup in Week 14. "It's possible," one team insider said of Dockett. "He really should be a tackle in a 4-3 scheme and perhaps could be dangled in a trade. Problem is, Dockett has no heir apparent, as was the case with Antonio Smith, who was replaced by Calais Campbell, so they have to be careful."
• Due to make $3.95 million in 2013 and $2.95 million in 2014, we hear Rams third OT Wayne Hunter likely will be too expensive to bring back next season.
• We hear the Packers have at least given some thought to lessening multithreat Randall Cobb's workload by reducing his kick-return duties.
• Saints WR Joe Morgan has only seven catches this season, but he has really impressed the team's coaching staff with his attention to detail and is a player the Saints believe can develop into a bigger factor for them offensively. "I think there are some hidden things that he's done in games right now that people don't see," Saints interim head coach Joe Vitt said of Morgan this past week. "He's really become a heck of a blocker. I think you attribute how we get better in the running game to some of the blocks he's made. I think he's contributed to some perimeter runs. For a younger guy, he really knows who to get."
• The Redskins are having a harder time hiding S Madieu Williams' shortcomings. The hope a few weeks back was that the return of Brandon Meriweather would help calm things down in the secondary — or perhaps add a level of playmaking ability — to help compensate. It didn't happen once Meriweather suffered a season-ending knee injury. Now Williams is a weekly target. He too often gets caught looking into the backfield, even when the Redskins are not in zone coverage, and has been looked off and stung by double moves and pump fakes. His rate of getting burned is dangerously high.
• The Cowboys are in dire shape at nose tackle. They are without Josh Brent, accused of intoxication manslaughter and placed on the reserve non-injury list, for the rest of the season. And it appears that Jay Ratliff, their best down lineman, could be done, too, after he underwent surgery for a sports hernia. The ailments have piled up for Ratliff, who signed a huge deal (five years, $40 million) in September 2011 and might have hit his physical peak, as he's set to turn 32 prior to next season. But the concern for the Cowboys is immediate, too. Only Sean Lissemore can be counted on there, with unknowns (Robert Callaway and Brian Schaefering) as the recently signed backups.
• Vikings S Harrison Smith said he's not sure when teammate Chris Cook will return but did add that he thinks Cook will add a new dimension to the defense if and when he does. "Chris is a competitor and you know he can handle the position physically," Smith told PFW. "That confidence is infectious. If he comes back, we'll feel (the effect). It would be big." There's a chance Cook could start practicing on a regular basis prior to the Week 16 game against the Texans.
• Packers TE Jermichael Finley said this week that the Bears might actually be better off on defense with Nick Roach at middle linebacker instead of Brian Urlacher, who is still out recovering from a hamstring injury. Finley's view was not one shared by our league sources, though. Urlacher's quickness has dropped off this season and Roach may be able to cover more ground than Urlacher in coverage, but Roach, who lacks size, gets caught out of position at times — his instincts do not measure up to Urlacher's. One league evaluator said Roach is probably best suited to be a nickel 'backer, not a thumper on the inside.

Jeff Alt, author of "A Walk for Sunshine", had hiked parts of the Appalachian Trail a few times before he decided he wanted to walk the whole trail, all 2,160 miles of the trail. According to Alt, in 1948, Earl Shaffer, a WWII veteran became the first "thru walker" as those attempting the feat are called. Fifty years later, Alt set out to join the ranks of the many and varied individuals who choose to tackle the same challenge.
In "A Walk for Sunshine", Alt shares the details of his four-and-a-half month journey. You'll find funny stories such as how he got the trail name "Wrongfoot". And, he'll tell you about his decision to use his walk to raise money for the Sunshine Home, which cares for over 850 mentally retarded and developmentally disabled people in northwest Ohio. One of those residents is Alt's brother Aaron. Jeff's endeavor raised $16,000 that year, and now, there is a yearly 5K fundraising walk that continues to raise money for the residents of Sunshine.
The book contains 35 relatively short and easy-to-read chapters of both the internal and external barriers and challenges Alt faced on the trail. The logistics involved are quite daunting and require quite a bit of planning and forethought. Just imagine planning food, clothes, sleeping, water, and all the other necessities you would need to walk for four-and-a-half months through the mountains.
Alt meets many fellow thru-walkers and all are introduced by their trail names, such as (to name just a few) Packrat, Crash, Comfortably Numb, Happy Jo, and Rob. They share stories and meals and sleeping quarters (primitive though they are) along the trail. Some walk in pairs or small groups, but most walk alone. Some walk all the way through, some have to quit early. Some keep trying.
I enjoyed this book much more than I anticipated. I found it motivating and inspiring and entertaining. Alt is not a "travel writer" or an "adventure writer"; but he tells a great story anyway. It is a very personal story and it is easy to imagine being there on the trail.
However, there were many occasions when I know I would have called a cab. I have much admiration for anyone choosing to tackle such a challenge. I have visited and even hiked a teeny, tiny bit in the Smoky Mountains, so I knew this was no Sunday walk in the park. Plus, I love personal achievement stories and I find walking to be a great life practice. And, while I am pretty sure I am (deep down) resilient enough to cope with almost anything, I also know my choice is to shower daily and sleep without a skunk trying to cuddle up to me. But as Alt says, the unofficial trail motto is "Hike your own hike", so I'm fine with that.
At the end of the book, Alt gives tips on how you can raise money for charity while you follow your own dreams. He also shares several "life lessons" he learned that have stuck with him in the 10 years since he hiked the trail. Alt definitely hikes his own hike, and has helped improve the quality of life for many people like his brother, Aaron. His story is an inspiration for the rest of us on many levels.
To read and enjoy Jeff's story yourself or to gift it to someone else, you can buy the book at Amazon.com:

History of Change Gives Flushing Diversity
For many home shoppers, the sprawling neighborhood of Flushing can seem more like an independent city rather than just a section of Queens.
It has its own bustling downtown filled with small markets, vendors and noodle stands situated next to shopping centers and high-rise apartments. There are the tree-lined suburban blocks with single-family homes that would fit right on Long Island. And, of course, Flushing has its own big-league baseball stadium in Citi Field.
The variety in Flushing's housing stock reflects the tremendous amount of change that the area has been through over the decades. Downtown Flushing has had most of the new development in large part because of its abundance of public transportation options like the Long Island Railroad and the No. 7 subway line.
"It was a lot of low rise, shops here and there. Fast forward 10 years, there has just been an incredible amount of development," said Helen Lee, a director at Onex Real Estate Partners.
Onex's 3.3-million-square-foot commercial and residential development, Sky View Parc, was among the biggest projects completed in Flushing in recent years. It brought in a number of national chains in its retail space, including Target, Best Buy and B.J.'s. The residential portion has three 11-story towers with a total of 448 units. Asking prices range from $375,000 to $1.34 million. About 45% of the units in Towers One and Three have been sold or are in contract. The 138 units in Tower Two still haven't been listed.
The slowdown in the real-estate market also has tempered development in Flushing. But there are even more large projects lined up for the near future.
TDC Development and Rockefeller Group Development Corp. have plans to turn a five-acre city-owned parking lot in downtown Flushing into a 1.8-million-square-foot mixed-use development. About 600 condos, retail and office space as well as a new YMCA are planned.
The developers, however, are still raising financing. "In this marketplace, getting an $800 million project financed is a challenge," said Michael Meyer of TDC. Once financing is in place , the project could be constructed in about 3½ years.
TDC is also building a mixed-use project near the Flushing River that will include a Hyatt Place hotel, office space and 43 condos. That is scheduled to finish by 2013.
Much of Flushing's growth in recent years has been fueled by a steady stream of immigrants that has made it the home of one of the largest Asian populations in the U.S. That's a shift from decades past when the area was populated mainly by a mix of blue- and white-collar workers of Italian, Irish and Polish decent.
Flushing's suburban landscape has changed as well. Many of the older homes have been torn down and replaced by larger houses with smaller yards, said Diane Penrod of Prudential Douglas Elliman, who has lived in Flushing since the 1960s.
But even with all the demographic changes and new additions in Flushing, the neighborhood has kept much of the small-town appeal that has drawn home buyers for years, Ms. Penrod said.
"People know each other on the blocks. People are friendly," Ms. Penrod said.
Home prices in Flushing have also remain relatively affordable, especially compared with Manhattan. The median asking price for Flushing homes is $516,500 or $443 a square foot, according to real-estate site StreetEasy. In Bayside to the east, the median asking price is $300 a square foot, and in Kew Gardens to the south, it is $417, according to StreetEasy.
Parks: There are a number of large parks in the Flushing area, including Kissena Park, which measures 237 acres. It has a cycling track, ball fields, fishing, fitness equipment and basketball courts. Also nearby is Flushing Meadows Corona Park, the flagship park in Queens and site of 1964 World's Fair. It has the Queens Wildlife Center, Meadow Lake and the New York Hall of Science.
Schools: Flushing's schools are in District 25. They include Flushing High School, I.S. 237 and junior high schools Edward Bleeker and William Carr.
In 2011, 77.7% of District 25 students in grades three through eight received a proficient score on the math exam, and 59.1% of students received a proficient score on the English Language Arts exam. In 2006, the results were 78.2% for math and 67.7% for reading.
Private schools in the neighborhood include St. Michael's School, running from preschool through middle school, the Windsor School, a middle school and high school, and Flushing Christian School, a primary and middle school.
Restaurants: Flushing has some of the best Asian restaurants in all of New York. Asian Jewel Seafood draws big crowds on the weekend for Dim Sum. Spicy and Tasty specializes in Sichuan food. And Joe's Shanghai is famous for its crab-soup dumplings.
Shopping: Downtown Flushing is the main shopping area for the neighborhood. A host of national retailers have recently opened up in the area, including Target, Best Buy and Old Navy. There are also shopping centers like Queens Crossing.
Entertainment: Flushing is home to the Queens Museum of Art. Also in the area is the Queens Botanical Garden and Kupferberg Center Performances, a performing-arts space.

Press freedom is public freedom
- From: The Daily Telegraph
- March 13, 2013
FREDOOM of the press is a phrase we've heard a lot from Stephen Conroy recently. And yet it is now clear that he has no idea what those words mean.
The sweeping restrictions announced by the Communications Minister are the last refuge of a government which, unable to inspire positive news coverage through positive action, has now resorted to trying to enforce it.
Indeed, the crusade for more media restriction is so hamfisted and transparently biased it is a perfect example of the bloody-minded politicking which has made Labor so unpopular.
The initial Finkelstein inquiry was of course announced in the wake of the phone hacking and bribery scandal in the UK which embroiled News International, whose only relationship to News Limited, publisher of The Daily Telegraph, in Australia is a shared parent company.
Despite this Prime Minister Julia Gillard said the publisher of this newspaper had "hard questions to answer" - although could not name those questions, let alone answer them. Instead News Limited commissioned an independent root and branch, line by line inquiry that found precisely zero evidence of any such practices in Australia.
The fact is no serious figure has even hinted at these appalling practices taking place locally and yet the government's inquiry and its posturing was clearly constructed to imply just that. This is real dogwhistle politics .
But while the government let that imputation float in the ether to corrupt public faith in its news providers, it was pursuing its own agenda of attempting to constrain a press that was critical of Labor's shortcomings.
As the saying goes, you should never hold an inquiry unless you know what the outcome will be, and that outcome became plain in Senator Conroy's announcement.
This bully-boy policy, which the government is attempting to push through in four days compared to 18 months for the convergence review, and refuses to negotiate on, is a blunt political weapon through and through which attempts to divide and conquer. Senator Conroy throws a sop to Channel 9 by flagging a merger with Southern Cross that will increase TV concentration in regional areas and dangles a carrot to Seven West Media by indicating its own self-regulatory body could be part of the new "Public Interest Media Advocate".
Which brings us to the most Orwellian aspect of the proposed reforms - a government appointed body which will apply a "public interest test" for media mergers and, more chillingly, determine whether the Australian Press Council and newspapers maintain standards - standards that presumably the government or its so-called "independent" watchdog itself will determine.
As the respected Fairfax columnist Peter Hartcher observed, this is a solution in search of a problem. More worryingly, it is both a mechanism for politicians to deflect criticism and a gateway to government control of the press - and beyond that gate lies a dark and dangerous road.
Thomas Jefferson knew this when, despite being frequently castigated by the newspapers of his day, he said: "If I had to choose between government without newspapers, and newspapers without government, I wouldn't hesitate to choose the latter." Why? Because as he declared: "Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost."
That is what freedom of the press means: The right of the media - as a conduit for the public and a scrutineer of power - to criticise and even curse those who rule us.
To curb that is to control it. And to control it is to crush it.

Circles of Timeby Phillip Rock
The Acclaimed Trilogy That Has Been Called a Must-Read for Fans ofDownton Abbey A generation has been lost on the Western Front. The dead have been buried, a harsh peace forged, and the howl of shells replaced by the wail of saxophones as the Jazz Age begins. But ghosts linger--that long-ago golden summer of 1914 tugging at the memory of Martin Rilke and his British cousins, the Grevilles. From the countess to the chauffeur, the inhabitants of Abingdon Pryory seek to forget the past and adjust their lives to a new era in which old values, social codes, and sexual mores have been irretrievably swept away. Martin Rilke throws himself into reporting, discovering unsettling political currents, as Fenton Wood-Lacy faces exile in faraway army outposts. Back at Abingdon, Charles Greville shows signs of recovery from shell shock and Alexandra is caught up in an unlikely romance. Circles of Timecaptures the age as these strongly drawn characters experience it, unfolding against England's most gracious manor house, the steamy nightclubs of London's Soho, and the despair of Germany caught in the nightmare of anarchy and inflation. Lives are renewed, new loves found, and a future of peace and happiness is glimpsed--for the moment.
A Future Arrivedby Phillip Rock
The final installment of the saga of the Grevilles of Abingdon Pryory begins in the early 1930s, as the dizzy gaiety of the Jazz Age comes to a shattering end. What follows is a decade of change and uncertainty, as the younger generation, born during or just after the "war to end all wars," comes of age. American writer Martin Rilke has made his journalistic mark, earning worldwide fame with his radio broadcasts, and young Albert Thaxton seeks to follow in his footsteps as a foreign correspondent. Derek Ramsey, born only weeks after his father fell in France, and Colin Ross, a dashing Yankee, leave their schoolboy days behind and enter fighter pilot training as young men. The beautiful Wood-Lacy twins, Jennifer and Victoria, and their passionate younger sister, Kate, strive to forge independent paths, while learning to love--and to let go. In their heady youth and bittersweet growth to adulthood, they are the future--but the shadows that touched the lives of the generation before are destined to reach out to their own.
The Passing Bellsby Phillip Rock
The guns of August are rumbling throughout Europe in the summer of 1914, but war has not yet touched Abingdon Pryory. Here, at the grand home of the Greville family, the parties, dances, and romances play on. Alexandra Greville embarks on her debutante season while brother Charles remains hopelessly in love with the beautiful, untitled Lydia Foxe, knowing that his father, the Earl of Stanmore, will never approve of the match. Downstairs the new servant, Ivy, struggles to adjust to the routines of the well-oiled household staff, as the arrival of American cousin Martin Rilke, a Chicago newspaperman, causes a stir. But, ultimately, the Great War will not be denied, as what begins for the high-bred Grevilles as a glorious adventure soon takes its toll--shattering the household's tranquillity, crumbling class barriers, and bringing its myriad horrors home.

LOS ANGELES - The Academy Awards started smoothly with a breezy opening from host Ellen DeGeneres and a best supporting actor award to the velvety "Dallas Buyers Club" star Jared Leto.
As expected, Leto won for his acclaimed, gaunt performance as a transsexual in the Texas AIDS drama. He thanked his mother, his date on the night.
"Thank you for teaching me to dream," said Leto. Later backstage, he passed around his Oscar to members of the press, urging them to "fondle" it. The actor, who had devoted himself in recent years to his rock band 30 Seconds to Mars, gravely vowed: "I will revel tonight."
Tonight's Oscars hung on a nail-biter of a finish, with the best picture race believed to be between the historical drama "12 Years a Slave," the 3-D space spectacle "Gravity" and the con-artist comedy "American Hustle." DeGeneres alluded to the options in her opening monologue.
"Possibility number one: '12 Years a Slave' wins best picture," she said. "Possibility number two: You're all racists."
Her opening went over well in Los Angeles' Dolby Theatre. She chided Leto ("Boy, is he pretty") and mocked Jennifer Lawrence for falling on her way onto the red carpet, just as she did when she accepted the Oscar last year for "Silver Linings Playbook."
"If you win tonight, I think we should bring you the Oscar," said DeGeneres to Lawrence, nominated for her performance in "American Hustle."
Disney's global hit "Frozen" won best animated film, marking - somewhat remarkably - the studio's first win in the 14 years of the best animated feature category. (Pixar, which Disney owns, has regularly dominated.) With box-office that recently passed $1 billion globally, the film was sure to be the biggest hit to take home an Oscar tonight.
Though the Oscar ceremony is usually a glitzy bubble separate from real-world happenings, international events were immediately referenced. In his acceptance speech, Leto addressed people in Ukraine and Venezuela.
"We are here and as you struggle to make your dreams happen, to live the impossible, we're thinking of you," said Leto.

It started with a jolt, but Harrisburg's series opener in Binghamton Thursday night ended with a whimper, the host Mets doubling up the Senators 12-6 at NYSEG Stadium.
Jayce Boyd homered and drove in four runs, and starting pitcher Darin Gorski -- a Mount Joy native -- added two hits and two RBIs for Binghamton (16-14) in the opener of this four-game Eastern League set.
Michael Taylor, in his first start in a week, crushed Gorski's first pitch of the game for a home run and finished 3-for-5 with two runs and two RBIs, a double shy of the cycle for the Senators (10-21).
Each team collected 13 hits, but the Mets finished 7-for-14 with runners in scoring position while the Senators were just 2-for-10.
Gorski (3-1), who allowed two runs in six innings, struck out seven against one walk. He's a Donegal High School and Kutztown University product.
Blake Schwartz (0-6) suffered another loss for the Senators after allowing five runs in five innings. He walked four without a strikeout.
Reliever Brian Dupra, one of two pitchers to joint the Senators' roster Thursday, surrendered seven runs (three earned) in three innings.
Dupra was promoted from Class A Potomac, while RHP Tyler Herron rejoined the Senators' roster from Class AAA Syracuse. No other moves were required, as Harrisburg had been two players shy of the full allotment of 25.
After retiring the first four batters he faced, and carrying the 1-0 edge thanks to Taylor's blast, Schwartz ran into some trouble in the second inning.
Kevin Plawecki singled with one out, and Dustin Lawley walked. After a flyout, Schwartz and the Senators perhaps pitched around eight-hole hitter Wilfredo Tovar (walk) to load the bases for Gorski.
But Gorski, in his first at-bat of the season, lined a two-run single to center for a 2-1 lead.
After Ricky Hague's homer tied the score in the top of the fifth, Binghamton again went right back to work thanks to a Gorski leadoff double. Boyd's three-run homer came later in the frame and left the Mets ahead 5-2, a lead they would keep.
1. CF Michael Taylor (2 points) -- 3-for-5, 3B, HR, two runs, two RBIs

DOHA: An annual Al Jazeera Forum that opened here yesterday to discuss the changes taking place in the Arab world completely ignored Egypt.
The only way Egypt found a mention at the 8th Al Jazeera Forum was when Dr Mustafa Souaq, Acting Director-General of Al Jazeera Centre for Studies, talked of the four Aljazeera journalists being detained there.
"Al Jazeera will exert all efforts to free our journalists so they can return to their families and colleagues with dignity and honour and continue their media work," Souaq said in his address.
The three-day Forum was opened by Souaq. The keynote address was delivered by former Tunisian prime minister Ali Laarayedh, and Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arange also spoke. At last year's Al Jazeera Forum (7th Al Jazeera Forum) held from March 16 to 18, 2013, Egypt's Information Minister from the previous government, Saleh Abdul Maqsood, was present.
On the opening day of the Forum yesterday, speakers from different countries spoke on subjects mostly concerning the Arab world, the direction these changes would likely take, media freedom and human rights.
Many speakers focused on Syria but Egypt, where elections took place yesterday, was ignored in the whole agenda of the Forum.
In his opening speech Dr Mustafa Souag, Acting Director General of AlJazeera Network, promised that "AlJazeera will continue to cover human rights issues wherever possible, and will strive, as it always has, to give every human a right to defend their rights and make their voice heard because it is a voice for the voiceless and a platform for those who have no outlet".
In his keynote speech to 8th AlJazeera Forum guests, Dr Ali Laarayedh, former Tunisian prime minister said that the situation in Arab countries would not regress to what it was at the end of 2010, despite setbacks and obstacles facing what have come to be known as the Arab Spring countries.
He said Arab countries continued to face monumental factors on their path to reform, including weak independent parties and organisations, violation of private and public rights, oppression, victimisation, marginalisation, unemployment, class-based rifts and poor economic development.
Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arange said that "By virtue of its annual congregation, the forum plays a very important role by addressing issues of the Middle East and beyond, making the title particularly fitting.
Looking at the Arab world, there is variation and diversity that does not allow generalisations. Morocco, Egypt, Libya and Syria, for example, all have their own unique characteristics despite their commonalities. The region has witnessed many changes and transformations, and despite the challenges, the spirit of change still exists.
Participants in the forum's first panel proposed that each country is acting in a vacuum, leaving the entire region exposed and allowing Iran to find a vital role in Syria.
Some of the speakers said Iran was the primary beneficiary from what was happening in Syria and that the real danger lay in the fact that Syria may turn into a "Vietnam" for Iran.The Peninsula

Play amongst the high-rollers in Las Vegas
Situated in the Mojave Desert, Nevada, Las Vegas rises like a strange desert flower among the elevated peaks, rocky landscape and arid zones that surround it. While primarily known for its gambling, shopping, fine dining and nightlife, there's something in this city for every curious tourist. With no shortage of theme parks, museums, national parks and other attractions unique to this dazzling city, it's no surprise that this 24 hour resort town is one of the top tourist destinations worldwide and bills itself as The Entertainment Capital of the World.
The phrase "Only in Vegas" exists for a reason. In Las Vegas city high-rollers mingle with budget conscious tourists, soon-to-be newlyweds, conference goers and a gamut of other curious travellers. There are activities you will only find in Vegas and activities you wish you didn't stumble upon. The "Sin City" nickname is no coincidence, but in contrast to the gambling venues and nightlife, Las Vegas also boasts an impressive selection of museums, exhibits, concerts, outdoor pursuits and more.
Gambling, fine dining, nightlife and a dash of culture
It wouldn't be a true Las Vegas experience without placing a bet at one of the world famous casinos. Caesars Palace is perhaps the most iconic and is hard to beat for atmosphere. Downtown, the Golden Nugget is an excellent choice, while Casino Royale is perfect for a cheap spin on the roulette wheel. Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the nightlife and visit the Neon Museum, where old signs are given a new life, or the Atomic Testing Museum for a chilling insight into the Nevada Test Site. The Mob Museum provides a fascinating look at the involvement of the mob in the rise of Las Vegas.
Stroll The Strip to scope out the world-class dining options available and stop to gaze in wonder at the Bellagio's famous dancing fountain show. Shooting water over 100m into the air at regular intervals from 3pm until midnight, this water rocket spectacle is a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Tourists are also enamoured by the erupting volcano at the Mirage, the animated statues at Caesars Palace and the city's own Eiffel Tower at Paris Las Vegas hotel. Another over-the-top yet somehow delightful tourist attraction is the New York-New York roller coaster which runs right through New York-New York hotel, bringing with it a little taste of Disneyland. And of course, if you are that way inclined, you can always get married at one of the many Vegas wedding chapels.
The daylight hours in Las Vegas bring with them a whole different side of the city and its surrounds. Try jumping from the 350m Stratosphere Tower in a controlled free fall and conquer your fear of heights. Energetic travellers might enjoy a hike through the valley of fire, with its bizarre rock formations and Hollywood Western scenery. A kayaking day trip along the Colorado River is the perfect way to see Hoover Dam from a new perspective. If water sports aren't your thing, a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon may be more your style. Just 30 minutes West of The Strip, lies the Red Canyon, a natural wonderland of sandstone bluffs, seasonal waterfalls and walking and cycling trails.
Where to stay in the city that never sleeps
The Strip, technically known as Las Vegas Boulevard, is the major thoroughfare through the city and is lined both sides with shopping malls, theatres, casinos and restaurants. Fancy and gaudy hotels are in abundance here and provide a true Vegas experience. Just to the East and West of The Strip you can find less expensive accommodation while losing none of the convenience. A little further to the West, where the real inhabitants of Las Vegas live, a range of excellent hotels are scattered among the regular supermarkets and everyday amenities. North of The Strip in Downtown Las Vegas is the perfect location to stay for proximity to the Arts District, the Neon Museum and the older hotels and Casinos of Fremont Street. Racing enthusiasts might prefer to book a hotel in North Las Vegas, the home of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and host of NASCAR and other drag races.

Event Highlight: Lunch in the Park
July 13, 2009
Kids who attended Lunch in the Park at Columbia's Douglass Park on July 6, got to visit the Youth Outreach Bookmobile and play with musical instruments and hula hoops. This summer, library staff are bringing books and activities to this City-sponsored program every Monday, June 22 through August 17. The bookmobile itself is visiting every other week. The hula-hooper pictured below is the amazing Majda, who spun her hoop for a full 14 minutes that day, but assures us that that is not even her record.
The library also has regularly scheduled Youth Outreach bookmobile stops at Columbia community centers. See the Programs page to find out about more upcoming programs for kids.

See "Toll-like Receptor mRNA Expression in Liver Tissue From Patients With Biliary Atresia" by Saito et al on page 620.
The etiology of biliary atresia (BA) remains an enigma. It has been 30 years since the first article to propose an immune-mediated mechanism was written by Hadchouel et al (1). This article suggested the involvement of humoral immunity, whereby immunoglobulin M (IgM), with or without IgG, was deposited in the basement membrane of glandular structures in the fibrous remnant of the porta hepatis in one-third of 128 patients with BA. In the 3 decades since the article, researchers have focused on adaptive immunity, especially the activation of cell-mediated immunity, as the mechanism of biliary epithelial cell destruction (2).
In an attempt to clarify the role of the innate immune response in BA, Saito et al (3) examines in this issue of JPGN the mRNA expression levels of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in liver biopsy specimens. They report that the activation of the innate immune system via the TLR8 pathway may be responsible for the pathogenesis of BA, and that the TLR3 innate immune response may affect the prognosis. It is suspected that the activated TLR3 in BA explains the ongoing cirrhosis of the liver even after a Kasai procedure results in successful bile drainage.
Looking at the Japanese proverb "visiting the old, learn the new," it tells us to remember what has been done so we may learn and obtain true insight. Kasai (4) wrote an insightful article in 1981, the same year as the Hadchouel group's publication. He measured the portal vein pressure at the time of initial portoenterostomy in 31 patients (median age 65 days), demonstrating that the pressure was >150 mmH2O in all of the cases. He concluded that portal hypertension appeared to have already developed in patients with BA, even in the youngest infant (40 days old), who presumably had minimal distortion of the lobular architecture of the liver. This raises the question as to whether the portal hypertension seen in BA is pre- or postsinusoidal. The expression of co-stimulatory factor, the second signal to T lymphocytes that emerged through cross-talk between innate and adaptive immunity, was found in the biliary epithelium and in the vessels and sinusoids of the liver in patients with BA, particularly those with portal hypertension (5). Regardless of the primary insult mechanism of the disease, the portal hypertension may well be sinusoidal, with the sinusoidal endothelium being primarily involved. In other words, it is hypothesized that portal hypertension in an early phase of the disease is not secondary to biliary epithelial damage but may be a presenting feature in conjunction with the biliary damage before the development of the nodular regeneration. Consequently, locating upregulated TLRs will be an important next step toward clarifying the role of TLRs in the etiopathogenesis and later progressive fibrosis of BA.
Another intriguing observation is the positive correlation between the TLR7 mRNA level and the patient's age at the time of the Kasai procedure. Whether an earlier Kasai procedure improves the prognosis remains controversial. This is because the clinical outcome is influenced greatly by a surgical technique and episodes of cholangitis, which exacerbate the initial insult. These data would be important in that delaying the operation may induce the upregulation of TLR7 in the liver because of longer exposure to enteral bacteria. This observation lends support to the concept that performing a Kasai procedure earlier could improve the prognosis.
To continue "visiting the old," in 1974, Shim et al (6) demonstrated a difference in the incidence of BA among various ethnic groups living in Hawaii. The incidence of Japanese in Hawaii was 0.8/1000 live births, compatible with that of Japanese in Sendai, Japan, whereas the incidence of whites was 0.6 ± 0.2. The incidence of Filipinos in Hawaii is 2.0 ± 0.9, which is fewer than the incidence among French Polynesian (3.2/10,000 live births). They implied that race is a more important influence on the occurrence of BA than geographic location or differences in environment. This ethnic diversity may be explained by parents' allele disparity for common phenotypes or the degree of human leukocyte antigen diversity found in a genetic pool of each ethnicity (7). One could get insight into the etiopathogenesis of BA when it is explained using our modern research modalities and international cooperation.
Closing this commentary, I would like to expand the report of Saito et al with the concept of maternofetal immune disease (2,8), although I admit that I am "drawing water to my own mill." TLR8, along with TLR3, -7, and -9, recognizes nucleic acid–based, pathogen-associated molecular patterns, which include not only microorganisms but also similar endogenous ligands. Papadimitraki et al (9) suggest that the necrotic or apoptotic cells activate cytokine production through the TLR9 pathway, driving aberrant B-cell responses in systemic lupus erythematosus. Tournadre et al (10) recently reported that TLR3 and TLR7 are expressed in the inflammatory myopathic tissues in polymyositis/dermatomyositis, a disease that is recognized as one of the possible maternofetal immune diseases (11).
This piece of provocative work provides investigators tackling the etiopathogenesis of BA with important information. We should link our "old" knowledge about BA with modern research modalities, furthering our search for answers.

April, 2005
Carleton University
Ottawa, Ontario
An interdisciplinary conference, Spaces of Pleasure invites graduate students to present on topics that may include, but are not limited to, pleasure in society, bodies of pleasure, pleasurable bodies, the politics of pleasure, regulating pleasure, selling pleasure/pleasurable space, pleasure in popular culture and the media, or anything that just feels good. We are looking for substantive topics that may touch upon theme parks, bars, prostitution, the regulation of pleasure, etc., as well as theories of pleasure and pleasurable theories.
Hosted by graduate students in the department of Sociology and Anthropology at Carleton University, the purpose of this conference is to take seriously the role of pleasure in society, a topic that spills over the traditional boundaries between disciplines. We encourage participants to be creative, exploring/exploding concepts of space and pleasure. In keeping with the interdisciplinary theme of this conference, graduate students of the humanities and social sciences are invited to participate alongside one another.
Join us in creating a pleasurable space for graduate students to present papers and receive feedback while sharing perspectives on similar topics that cross disciplinary boundaries.
Students are encouraged to submit an abstract of 350-500 words to this e-mail address by Feburary 15. Dates and further details to follow.

But about Pac, I can't say that his level of competition is higher than Martínez's.
Pac's last fights
Bradley - Lost (the scorecards were bad he actually won that fight)
Marquez at 144 - Won (moving Marquez up two weight classes and still got an extremely controversial decision, IMO he clearly lost)
Mosley - Won (No wins in 2 years, completely shot)
Margarito at 150 - Won (Weight drained, having only beaten García before in that year because he was suspended for one year after the Mosley incident)
Clottey - Won (Coming of a loss against Cotto)
Martínez's last fights
Jr - Won (Not the best boxer ever, but he's around 180, the guy was huge)
Macklin - Won (I clearly had Macklin winning against Sturm, but was coming of a loss)
Barker - Won (Least known opponent of Martínez, not worthy by name, the kid was though but I get it, not enough for a guy like Martínez)
Dzinziruk - Won (Undefeated at 154, WBO champ)
Williams - Won (The guy was rumored to fight Pac before this fight, now most guys are going to say he was a bum but at that moment he was one of the most feared guys in boxing)
Pavlik - Won (Another huge 160 guy, Martínez was fighting his second fight at 160 and Pavlik was considered the best MW in the world ... Again, most people will say that he was a bum but then again at that moment he wasn't considered like that)

There is nothing wrong with Martinez fighting Murray. Murray is a solid, underrated fighter and I'm sure Martinez wants to get confidence in his leg since the surgery before fighting a tougher opponent. Murray is a perfect homecoming opponent.
Team Martinez just needs to be careful not to underestimate Murray.

A lifeguard took a scary situation into his own hands when he spotted a shark in shallow water off Cocoa Beach on Sunday.
The lifeguard, Zach Cooney, was on the south side of the Cocoa Beach Pier.
Cooney, 22, said the first thing he did was get a group of children out of the water.
Cooney then grabbed the shark by the tail and dragged it into deeper water.
No one was hurt.
