DEARBORN, Mich. - The United Auto Workers and Ford Motor Co. reached a tentative agreement Saturday on a new contract, hours after a handful of workers walked off the job when a strike deadline passed.
A joint statement announcing the deal contained no details, and officials declined to provide any, pending ratification meetings.
A source close to the talks, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the agreement followed the pattern set by the UAW in deals with General Motors Corp. and DaimlerChrysler AG - four-year agreements with raises of 3 percent each year and a signing bonus.
A local union official in Tulsa, Okla., said the agreement allowed the spin-off of Visteon Automotive Systems, Ford's parts division. Wade McCaleb, secretary-treasurer of Local 1895, said workers at Visteon plants would remain Ford employees, while any new employees at Visteon will be covered by an agreement between the new company and the UAW that mirrors the one the union has with Ford.
UAW officials said they were opposed to the company's plans for Visteon, which employs 23,500 UAW workers. Officials were concerned a separate Visteon could cut pay and jobs and even close plants to compete against other parts companies.
The strike deadline of midnight Friday was a first in U.S. auto industry negotiations this year and a sign of strain in what was billed as a close relationship.
However, the union said it did not authorize any work stoppages, and workers at only a handful of plants walked off their jobs when the deadline passed. Plants scheduled to operate Saturday were back in business by the day shift.
The temporary walkout was designed to be "kind of like a wake-up call" to Ford, said Larry Senyard, treasurer of Local 325 in St. Louis.
The walkouts came at Ford plants in St. Louis; Claycomo, Mo.; Flat Rock, Mich.; and St. Paul, Minn. There was no word on how many workers were involved.
Ford made $6.6 billion in 1998, thanks to a lack of work stoppages and bulked-up production at truck and sport utility vehicle plants. The average worker's profit sharing payment was $6,100.

Hello World in Assembly
Assembly language is one of the oldest low-level programming language for computers , micro-processors etc etc...It implements a symbolic representation of the Machine Opcodes needed to program a given CPU Architecture...Its a language based on mnemonics , labels , instructions , memory addresses and Registers... A major disadvantage of programming in assembly is that it is not at all platform independent and thus , cannot be ported to other architectures...
The Code
In this article we'll be learning about a simple Hello World Program in x86 Unix Assembly and Will be using basic syscall table to accomplish our tasks...
We'll be using write() function to write 'Hello World' to STDIN
write(int fd, char *Buff, int NumBytes);
We'll be using registers to pass the arguments...
Points to remember
segment .data
The first 2 lines simply define a db string containing 'Hello World' and the length of string
segment .text
First we delare a global declaration of _start lable so as to provide a entry point to the program..
The main code have been commented above for explanation , so as to provide a better understanding.
Lets now Assemble and link the program
aneesh@aneesh-laptop:~/Programming/ASM$ nasm -f elf32 helloworld.asm -o helloworld.o
aneesh@aneesh-laptop:~/Programming/ASM$ ./helloworld

Found here in my.newpaltz.edu is the new Allocation Request Form for the 14-15 Fiscal Year. Many thanks to Budget Goals and Plans for their hard work in making the form more simple to use. This is a fillable PDF document. We do not yet have it in a workflow-type system. You will need to save and print or scan to your next level supervisor again this year. We hope to create a workflow for next year's cycle.
Attached is the presentation that I made at the Budget Forum last week. Both of the attached documents are available on my.newpaltz.edu in the Budget Information Center section — along with the process timeline and a list of the requests from last year. Please review any old requests to see if they are still relevant. If so, please resubmit them using this year's form.
Keep in mind we are splitting off the requests for one-time funds from this recurring process. There is a place on the recurring request form where you can link to related one-time asks. We will begin the one-time process in the Spring when potential reserve balances will be more identifiable.
One important update: Last week I attended a presentation from the SUNY Budget Office and they confirmed my suspicions that it is very unlikely the university will receive any funding for salary increases. Therefore, please concentrate on the most important funding requests for your area as the likelihood of having much available funding for new requests is minimal at this point.
If you have any questions about the form or the process, please feel free to reach out to Julie Chiarito or myself and we will do our best to answer them.
Thank you,
Michele Halstead
Vice President for Administration and Finance

CRESTWOOD--- There was just a feeling that North Oldham junior middle back Amanda Marques had.
On match point, Marques lined herself up on the right side of the net.
I have pain in muscles I didn't know I had.
I should've prepared more before running the Warrior Dash in Manchester, Tenn. on Saturday.
I should've gotten more sleep.
I should've kept the old pair of running shoes I tossed when I moved from Bowling Green in August.
The proposed Brownsboro Farmers' Market was shut down by fiscal court at last week's meeting.
From buffalo production to philanthropic giving, Laura Lee Brown and Steve Wilson are well-known for their work in Oldham County.
Their extensive contributions will be recognized at the annual Oldham County Historical Society gala this year.
GOSHEN--- Thanks to North Oldham sophomore running back Quinton Shea, Mustangs coach Billy Martin will never have to worry about what he might've done.
On third down in overtime, Shea took a left pitch from senior quarterback Cameron Renaud, cut back inside and jaunted into the end zone to give North Oldham a 41-38 thriller over South Oldham.
Every Kentuckian can name at least one famous Thoroughbred.
But not many can tell you stories of the not-so-famous ones.
Ask Kim Smith, though, and she'll tell you about Krismas Cactus, Manchester, Finn, First and Gold ... And Lucky.
She'll definitely tell you about Lucky.
BUCKNER— In her first varsity start, Oldham County sophomore outside hitter Marissa Turnage picked a good time to come up big in the clutch.
Several new stop signs have drivers hitting the brakes in Pewee Valley and La Grange.
A new three-way stop added in late August near Immaculate Conception Church in La Grange has drawn attention — especially since it is right by Judge-Executive David Voegele's house.

Testing and treatment for digestive diseases
Find a doctor: 800-777-7775
The physicians and staff at Community Hospital North Endoscopy are experienced in a wide variety of digestive health diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. We specialize in the following areas:
A new bronchoscopic procedure that may provide additional benefits to standard asthma medications. The treatment is comprised of three bronchoscopies spread over six-to-nine-week period. This procedure is designed for severe persistent asthma in patients 18 years and older whose asthma is not well-controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta-agonists. Learn more about bronchial thermoplasty >>
Visualizes airways of the lungs. It is used to diagnose lung diseases and cancers and to determine the cause of chronic coughing or bleeding. A small, lighted scope is passed through your nose or mouth, down your windpipe and into your lungs. A tissue specimen may be obtained to determine a diagnosis. Sedation is given for this procedure. Recovery time is one to two hours and you will be unable to drink or eat for two hours following the procedure.
A lighted scope is passed through your rectum, through the colon (three to six feet), to the lower end of the small intestine. The procedure is used to diagnose change in bowel habits and to screen for colon cancers. If anything unusual is found such as a polyp or inflamed tissue, a biopsy may be taken and sent to the lab for analysis. Sedation is given and the procedure typically lasts about 20 to 30 minutes. Recovery time is about one hour. Prior to your procedure, your colon will need to be cleaned with a bowel preparation given to you by your physician.
A lighted scope is passed through the esophagus, stomach and duodenum until it reaches the area where the ducts of the biliary tree and pancreas open into the duodenum. It allows for diagnosis of diseases linked to the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts and pancreas. It is used to discover reasons for abdominal pain, abnormal lab tests, jaundice and weight loss. Sedation is given and the procedure can last from 30 minutes to two hours with a one-hour recovery. You will be required to lay on your stomach for the procedure and you will be unable to eat or drink for six hours prior.
Endoscopic ultrasound is similar to an upper endoscopy except that it uses ultrasound technology to visualize structures outside of the stomach, esophagus, duodenum, pancreas, liver, chest area and rectum.
Manometry is a non-sedated procedure that is used to diagnose swallowing disorders and chest pain. A thin tube is passed down the nose and into the esophagus to measure esophageal pressures. A pH test will measure abnormal acid reflux problems. In a traditional pH test, no sedation is required. A tube is placed down the nose and connected to a receiver that you wear for 24 hours. It records acid levels in your esophagus as you go about your daily life. A BRAVO pH test is a 48-hour test. A capsule is adhered to the lining of your esophagus and it sends data to a receiver that you wear for 48 hours. The BRAVO does not require a tube going down your nose. The test requires that you not have any food or drink for six hours prior. There is no recovery period. A BRAVO can also be placed with sedation if necessary. In this case, an upper endoscopy is performed and the capsule is placed while sedated. A one-hour recovery period will then be necessary.
A lighted scope is passed through the esophagus, stomach and duodenum. The procedure is used to discover the reason for swallowing problems, nausea, vomiting, reflux, bleeding, indigestion, abdominal pain or chest pain. Sedation is given and the procedure takes 10 to 20 minutes with a one-hour recovery time. Your stomach must be empty for this procedure to be performed so you cannot eat or drink for at least six hours prior.

TCR Afternoon Notes
Alright, here's my half-ass plan for the next few weeks...try to get one of those offseason target posts up sometime in the morning and then some type of quick notes/news of the moment update in the afternoon or early evening if there's enough news out there and if Phil doesn't have an update from Arizona. I will inevitably fail at keeping up that pace...
- Naples, Florida is making their run at the Cubs to be their new home for spring training.
The Cubs' 25-year lease with the city of Mesa expires in 2016. However,
the team has an escape clause, allowing them to pay $4.2 million to the
city next spring in order to leave Mesa in 2012.
That's a pretty well-done and detailed article at the link, so I encourage everyone to check it out. I will say while it's probably better for many Chicago residents, who I know would prefer the shorter trip to Florida, it would likely mean the demise of Arizona Phil here at TCR, so suck it up and write a letter to Ricketts that you want the Cubs to stay in Arizona.
- Things are going well for Jeff Samardzija in Winter Ball....
gave up four runs, five hits, and four walks over five innings in Mexicali's 9-4 win over Navojoa on Sunday
- Tony LaRussa and Dave Duncan will be back next year for the Cardinals and LaRussa is dragging Mark McGwire back with him as their new hitting coach. It's the holy coaching trinity of cheaters...
- Speaking of managers, Manny Acta will helm the Cleveland Indians for the next three years, but only because the Astros have some odd policy of not going past two years on a manager contract. Rob Neyer rightfully takes the Astros to task for their odd line in the sand. David Clark, Phil Garner or Red Sox bench coach Brad Mills seem to be the final candidates now.
- Neyer is on fire today, taking on a Mike Celizic article that goes after Joe Giradi for overmanaging...
...For the most part, at this time of the year all a manager
can do is wind up his players and send them off to battle like little
tin soldiers. Maybe Girardi really has been guilty of overmanaging; if
so, he's overmanaged his team to the World Series and lost only two
games along the way. I suspect that a lot of teams would love to be
overmanaged so well.
and then Matthew Pouliot over at NBC Sports who went after Mike Scioscia for not dropping Chone Figgins down in the order...
Similarly, it would make no more sense to move Chone Figgins down this month than for Larry Dierker to have moved Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell down, amid all their October struggles. Or to have moved Willie Mays down, or Joe Morgan. All of these brilliant players struggled in October, and their managers did what you have to do with struggling superstars: leave them alone and hope for the best.
Well not sure about Chone Figgins being a superstar, but you get the point.
- After failing miserably on my NLDS choices, I did better when I re-picked at the LCS games (sorry, can't find the link but I had Phillies in 6 and Yankees in 7) and I did pick the Yankees from the beginning. I know, that's a helluva a limb a climbed out on. Of course, it was a sad evening in the G family household last night as the Angel Fan Wife was visibly distraught after the Angels case of the yips last night in the 8th inning. I'll stick with the Yankees of course for the World Series, I say 6 games.
- Be sure to check out the right sidebar for payroll, minor league free agent and Rule 5 info courtesy of the aforementioned Arizona Phil.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
Carrie Muskat has an article up about Kyler Burke's "rewarding" season.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
For all the talk about the $30MM wasted on Bradley, how about the $16MM Jim Hendry foolishly threw at Samninja? This guy would have a better future with the Bears than with the Cubs. He stink long time.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
And now for the TEN WORST FIELDERS IN 2009 based on TOTALZONE ratings.
1. Michael Cuddyer, RF, -26
2. Bobby Abreu, RF, -25
3. Vernon Wells, CF, -19
4. Gary Matthews Jr., CF, -17
5. Alberto Callaspo, 2B, -16
6. Orlando Cabrera, SS, -16
7. Lastings Milledge, LF, -16
8. David Wright, 3B, -15
9. Carlos Lee, LF, -14
10. Miguel Tejada, SS, -14
Comment: No Cubs on this list!
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
i think if i were them i'd try to hide my data coming to those results rather than publishing them.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
How about a Luke Scott profile?
Also, we should probably discuss the potential costs-in terms of players of each trade.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
I agree that we should discuss potential costs of each trade. BTW, seems to me that Detroit is a logical trade partner. Willis, Bonderman, Maggs, Granderson could all be targets involving Bradley et al.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
Other than Granderson I wouldnt want any of those other guys, unless we converted the D-Train to an OF. To get Granderson we likely have to give up a prospect that I dont want to give up for Curtis Granderson.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
If Ricketts wants to start a Cubs version of NESN or YES than I feel they will move Spring traing to Florida, because Cubs V. Red Sox, Cubs V. Yankees, Cubs V. Cards and Cubs V. Mets would be better for Ad money than Cubs V. any other Catcus league team not the White Sox. Also with the exodus of the Astros, Reds and Dodgers in recent or future years getting the Cubs back would net 70-80% of the lost revenue which sense FL is funded by Tourodollars will be that the state will help out the Naples bid.
Re: TCR Afternoon Notes
Follow up link on the Cubs to Southwest Florida possiblity:

I hate the entire state of Florida.

RIP Arnie. We could use a lot more like you -- a man who succeeded and failed on his own terms, a true original, and, finally, a remarkable example of graciousness towards others.
Cubs finish 33 over at home. I was, personally, one game over at 3-2, which was one of my better years in a while.
I do hope that's the last time we see the Cardinals this year. A lot of power, which is dangerous, particularly in a short series, and they have really shut down KB all year.
Oh, and Jon Lester? Damn!
Yes. Boating accident at 3AM. Very sad, but stupid. Young men do stupid things.
lester puts 2 on and is taken out at 96 pitches. oh well.
edwards in.
2 out in the 7th, lester at 84 pitches, ross taken out for the standing O.
it's possible contreras will catch lester for another inning+.
What a weird day. Jose Fernandez and Arnold Palmer, but then Scully and, on a much more modest level, Ross....
d.ross gets his 2nd standing O on the night (last home game of the season)...hits HR #10...curtain call. baseball.
as a fan, he only "owes" us the game on the field and not getting in the way of others on his team being ready to play (imo).
it's exponentially worse to his family and friends, but this dude most likely had 15+ years of play left and even though he just turned 24 a couple months ago he had already established himself as a top guy in the game.

I know what you're trying to say, Charlie, that none of us feels what his loved ones must be feeling.
On the other hand, what makes a death like this tragic is precisely the loss, based on Fernandez's youth and brilliance, to the baseball world.
So, for example, we can say that Princess Diana's death meant more, in aggregate, to millions of admirers who didn't know her personally than to her loved ones.
boston pitching snags a couple of mlb team records...
"Over nine innings of play, Boston's staff struck out 11 straight Tampa Bay Rays hitters Sunday, breaking the major-league record for most consecutive strikeouts in a game.
The previous record was held by former New York Mets right-hander Tom Seaver, who struck out 10 straight hitters in 1970.
Not only that, but with a strikeout to end the ninth, sending the game into extras, Boston's staff also struck out an MLB-record 21 batters over nine innings."
What a loss to baseball, which I'm sure pales in comparison to the personal loss to his loved ones.
Somehow I am sensing alcohol was involved. The highest number of boating accidents by a wide margin...
this season got a whole lot less fun
Reports this morning that Marlins' pitching ace Jose Fernandez died in a boating accident - just horrible news.

Radioactive Waste Management Appendix 4: National Funding
National Funding
Radioactive Waste Management - Appendix 4
Payments are made into an internal fund managed by the utility.
Provisions are discounted, currently at a rate of 8.6%.
There are proposals under discussion for the transfer of these funds to an external fund held by the spent fuel management company Synatom.
Payments are made into internal funds managed by the utility. These funds are available for investment within the utilities business.
Provisions are discounted at a rate of 5.5%.
Decommissioning and waste management funds are currently tax free.
Provisions are built up over an assumed 25-year lifetime for the power stations.
The nuclear utilities make payments into an external National Nuclear Waste Management Fund, managed by the Ministry of Trade and Industry.
Provisions are not discounted.
Contributions to the fund are made over the first 25 years of plant operation.
The nuclear utilities are entitled to borrow up to 75% of the fund with the Government able to borrow the remainder.
EDF makes provision in its accounts for decommissioning funding, based on a percentage of each kWh sold.
Provisions are not discounted.
Provisioning is based on an average decommissioning cost fixed by the Ministry of Industry and updated each year using the retail price index.
A separate internal fund has been established to finance the storing and processing of radioactive waste.
COGEMA makes provisions for decommissionning based on cost estimates this decommissioning fund is identified and is managed under COGEMA's responsibility.
The nuclear utilities make payments annually into an external fund for the disposal of HLW.
The fund is administered and managed by the Radioactive Waste Management Funding and Research Center (RWMC).
Payments are made by each utility and are adjusted on a yearly basis, the amount being based on the previous year's production of high-level waste.
Provisions are generated by a 200 yen/MWh levy on electricity sales.
Responsibility for decommissioning and waste management rests with the state-owned company Enresa.
Enresa manages a fund which is provisioned by a 3 Euro/MWh levy on electricity sales.
Provisions are discounted at a rate of 2.5%.
The nuclear utilities make payments into the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund (
). A separate fund exists for each utility.
Provisions are calculated on the basis of a 4% discount rate until 2020 and 2.5% thereafter.
Contributions to the funds are made during the first 25 years of operation and are based on a levy on nuclear electricity production.
The nuclear utilities make payments into two funds (decommissioning and waste management respectively), which are independent legal entities administrated by a management commission appointed by the Federal government.
The cost estimates and annual contributions are periodically updated for both funds.
The costs are allocated on the basis of the reactor power and are made at the end of each year of the planned 40-year lifetime of each reactor.
Provisions are discounted.
A mix of arrangements exist in the UK.
The private sector nuclear company, part of EDF Energy (formerly British Energy), contributes to a separate fund (the Nuclear Liabilities Fund) to cover its long-term decommissioning liabilities for the AGR power stations and the Sizewell B PWR. Short-term liabilities, and used fuel related issues are covered by provisions within the accounts.
The government's Nuclear Decommissioning Authority is responsible for the long-term management of the country's historic and committed nuclear liabilities. Its operations are funded by the government, but a proportion of funding is offset by revenue from the NDA's commercial acitivities.
Utilities pay a 0.1 cent/kWh into the Nuclear Waste Fund.
By the end of 2008 the Nuclear Waste Fund had accumulated over $31 billion, including interest.
The fund is growing by about $750 million per year from utility inputs and $900 million from interest.

I never thought the day would arrive when I would have to rise to the public defense of a former aide to Dick Cheney, but that day is here. A few weeks ago, Seymour Hersh said the following in a speech in Minnesota:
"Right now, today, there was a story in the New York Times that if you read it carefully mentioned something known as the Joint Special Operations Command -- JSOC it's called. It is a special wing of our special operations community that is set up independently. They do not report to anybody, except in the Bush-Cheney days, they reported directly to the Cheney office. They did not report to the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff or to Mr. [Robert] Gates, the secretary of defense. They reported directly to him. ...
"Congress has no oversight of it. It's an executive assassination ring essentially, and it's been going on and on and on. Just today in the Times there was a story that its leaders, a three star admiral named [William H.] McRaven, ordered a stop to it because there were so many collateral deaths.
"Under President Bush's authority, they've been going into countries, not talking to the ambassador or the CIA station chief, and finding people on a list and executing them and leaving. That's been going on, in the name of all of us.
I read all this and chuckled. Describing the Joint Special Operations Command as an "executive assassination ring" is just hilarious. And Hersh later walked back from some of the language he used. But the progressive media has jumped on this story like it's the next great scandal of the Bush Administration.
John Hannah was then called upon to talk about this on CNN, which was probably a bad choice because a) anything defended by a Cheney aide is immediate dismissed as evil by approximately 70% of the country and b) it's not like the JSOC is some partisan task force that went away when Obama was elected. But if you ignore who the messenger was, what was said by Hannah was essentially correct. I cannot, I think you all understand, get into the task organization or mission of the organization, but we all understand that within the U.S. military there exist special operations task forces which specialize in direct action missions -- killing and capturing high-value targets. Understand that there is a real need to tie these task forces into the greater overall strategies in play in both Iraq and Afghanistan. I talked about this need at length in my recent op-ed for Small Wars Journal. We cannot have a special operations task force pursuing missions uncoordinated with the theater and local commanders. But I don't think any of us would dispute the need for highly-trained, highly-specialized commandos capable of carrying out "capture or kill" or hostage-rescue missions of some high degree of strategic importance. (Remember Desert One?)
But there is some really great irony in play here. It is pretty much one of the worst-kept secrets in the U.S. special operations community that one of the most prominent commanders in this task force is also one of the most politically liberal general officers in the U.S. military. Like to the left of the Center for American Progress. So trying to paint the task force as the minions of Dick Cheney is really funny if only for that reason.
In the end, one of the problems with carrying out training and missions under a high degree of security classification is that it encourages some really silly conspiracy-mongering. And hauling out John Hannah to respond to those conspiracies probably wasn't the best decision.

Court of Public Opinion: Government Accountability and Judicial Independence
Matthew Stephenson
Harvard Law School
The Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization, Vol. 20, No. 2, pp. 379-399, 2004
Using a simple model of policy making in a system characterized by formal separation of powers, judicial dependence on government support, asymmetric information between voters and the government, and political accountability of the policy branch, I show conditions under which rational voters force the government to cede power over legislative decisions to the courts. Specifically, the public uses its ability to hold the elected branches of government accountable to enforce a judicial veto when judicial opposition to legislation provides more reliable information to voters than government support for legislation does. The model thus provides a theoretical justification for, and suggests important limits to, the common assumption that disregard for judicial decisions is politically costly for elected politicians. The model also demonstrates how other observed patterns in judicial politics - including judicial rubber-stamping of government decisions and government passing the buck to courts - can arise as equilibria in the same simple framework.

Joshua Breakstone's 20th album since 1983 stands out from the others with the inclusion of Mike Richmond's cello on four tracks, an idea inspired by the guitarist's late friend, bassist and promoter Mitsuru Nishiyama. During two of the most recent of Breakstone's 50 (!) tours to date of Japan, Nishiyama played cello with the guitarist's band. One of the strengths of this CD is Richmond's interaction with the trio of Breakstone, bassist Lisle Atkinson, and drummer Eliot Zigmund, and another is the leader's fascinating selection of tunes, including two by trumpeter Kenny Dorham, and one each by pianist George Cables and bassists Keter Betts, Oscar Pettiford, and Paul Chambers. Despite Breakstone's extensive discography and touring, he continues to fly somewhat below the radar in comparison to the more celebrated jazz guitarists, perhaps due to his rather deliberate, but never tentative, single-note style, where every note seems carefully assessed and chosen, and every appealing improvisation unfolds logically and lucidly, much like Kenny Burrell or Grant Green.
Betts' "Some Kinda Mean" has a slyly riffing theme that is shared by Breakstone and Richmond's cello to capativating effect. Breakstone's solo displays his attractive ringing tone, assured sense of development, and buoyant rhythmic feel. Richmond's response is nimbly executed and down-to-earth bluesy with striking vocal-like inflections. Atkinson then impresses with his richly resonant sound prior to the reprise. "I Told You So" is a piece its composer Cables used to play with Dexter Gordon, and its memorable melody is caressed by Breakstone before Richmond plucks out another highly focused, mesmerizing solo with superior chordal backing from the guitarist. Breakstone delves deeply into the tune's contours as well, with neatly copasetic encouragement from Atkinson and Zigmund. Dorham's "Short Story" ironically gets the longest treatment on the CD. Breakstone presents the by turns spiraling or spiky theme and goes on to astutely investigate each motif found within it with patient, subtle regard, as Atkinson and Zigmund maintain a low-keyed tension beneath him. Atkinson expands even more upon KD's line with authority, and Zigmund has a final impactful say pre-reprise.
Irving Gordon's "Be Anything" has been recorded by numerous singers ranging from Peggy Lee and Sarah Vaughan to Connie Francis and Queen Latifah. Breakstone's tender intro sets the mood, and as Zigmund launches a bossa nova rhythm the guitarist movingly unveils the theme, with Richmond's sympathetic lines enhancing his potency both here and throughout the following vividly constructed gem of a solo. The percolating head of Pettiford's "LaVerne Walk" is handled in graceful unison by Breakstone, Atkinson, and Richmond. The guitarist's effervescent solo receives top-notch support from bass and drums, and is succeeded by rewarding, highly communicative improvs by Atkinson and Richmond, seemingly on each other's wavelengths in terms of sound and substance. The second Dorham entry on the CD, "La Villa," bears some similarity to the previous "Short Story," and is certainly just as inspiring to musicians who choose to play it. Breakstone renders the theme with great clarity and proceeds to blister his way through an up tempo solo of sustained, fresh creativity, in which even a quote from "Jingle Bells" fits wonderfully. His trades with a rambunctious Zigmund are an added attraction, as is Atkinson's pulsating accompaniment for the duration, and the leader's additional chorus leading up to his recap, where he cleverly inserts a snippet of "Softly, As In a Morning Sunrise."
Breakstone's inventive intro to "The Very Thought of You" segues oh-so-smoothly into Ray Noble's melody, with the apt motif from the opening wisely inserted. Breakstone's relaxed solo is more of a dialogue between himself and Atkinson's lively insights. The masterful bassist then stretches out to further elaborate upon the standard's thematic and harmonic qualities. Guitar and cello engagingly perform the winding staccato theme of Chambers' "Visitation," with Breakstone inventing intricate boppish phrases in his subsequent extended solo, which is lifted by the engine that could, namely Atkinson-Zigmund. Richmond develops a brisk statement characterized by a persistent, attuned momentum, and he and Atkinson seamlessly exchange their thoughts in advance of the final concise summation. The title tune and closer, "With the Wind and the Rain in Your Hair" (Clara Edwards / Jack Lawrence) is a 1930 tune recorded previously by the likes of Bob Crosby, Pat Boone, Tal Farlow, and Stan Getz, and the infrequently played piece is shown to have been a wise choice based on what the trio is able to achieve. Breakstone's penetrating, crystalline guitar is perfectly suited to the melody, and his exuberant, dancing exploration, and trades with the sensitively aligned Zigmund never fail to hold one's attention.

Officials throughout Pennsylvania and South Jersey are going to be conducting a comprehensive survey to find out residents' decision-making process if an evacuation order was given.
Gloucester County, as well as Camden, Cumberland, Salem in New Jersey, and Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery counties and Philadelphia, will be taking part in the survey.
Nearly 3,500 residents will be randomly selected and the calls will start on Thursday. It will take about two to three months to complete all the phone interviews.
Some of the questions that may be asked will include whether or not they have had to evacuate in the past, why they needed to evacuate, where they would go and the mode of transportation they would use.
Residents will not need to identify themselves during the survey and their answers will remain confidential.
The $150,000 survey is being funded by the Southeastern Pennsylvania Regional Task Force through federal Homeland Security funds.


text: There is a monthly ceiling on total family benefits which limits the amount of certain portions of the employee and spouse annuity. This railroad retirement family maximum amount varies according to the employee's earnings in the ten-year period that ends with the year in which his or her annuity begins. If the employee and spouse annuity amounts described in § 226.52 of this part are higher than the maximum from § 226.51 of this part, first the spouse tier II, then the supplemental annuity and, finally, the employee tier II are reduced until the total annuity amount is equal to the maximum or until the spouse tier II and the employee supplemental annuity and tier II have been reduced to zero, whichever comes first. The reduction for the railroad retirement family maximum is first computed from the date the employee's annuity begins. It is recomputed if the employee's tier II rate is reduced for entitlement to a vested dual benefit. It is also recomputed if a workers' compensation or other disability benefit begins or ends, or the employee's tier I benefit or supplemental annuity begins after the beginning date of the regular employee annuity. Finally, it is recomputed if a spouse who was entitled to an annuity divorces the employee or the spouse annuity entitlement ends.

Mandy Moore's teen-pop colleagues have taken some different career paths lately – Jessica's doing reality TV, Christina's talking trash and Britney's busy marrying and annulling. But for Moore, 19, who has successfully jumped from singer to box-office draw with flicks such as A Walk to Remember and How to Deal, her big-screen career has already lasted longer than a Las Vegas wedding. She also recently released another album (Coverage), and her personal life ain't too shabby either – she linked up with hunky U.S. Open tennis champ Andy Roddick more than a year-and-a-half ago.
Her latest foray into film is Chasing Liberty, in which she plays the eager-to-be-liberated First Daughter of the President (played by Mark Harmon). Moore recently talked about her career plans and what it's like trading volleys with her offscreen boyfriend.
So, you and Andy have been dating awhile. Any engagement plans?
No, no engagement. (Laughs.) Do you see a ring on my finger? No engagement, but seriously dating, of course. He handles his world and I handle my world. It's nice.
How did you first meet? Didn't you go out and track him down?
I guess, kind of. But the funny part was that he told me that afterwards I was kind of his "celebrity crush," which was sweet. But yeah, my mom helped me a lot in terms of meeting him.
How so?
Well, I was shooting a film and my mom was going to watch him play tennis anyway, and I said jokingly, "You know, if you do end up getting to meet this guy, invite him back" – thinking that one, he'll have no clue who I am, and two, that he's not going to accept some weird invitation from some woman's mom. But he obliged. He came and we met and hit it off.
So, is this the most serious romance you've had?
Absolutely. I'm 19. It's a big deal and love is a big deal in anyone's life.

Warwickshire's weather woes continue
Click here for all the latest scores, match reports, news, videos and exclusive interviews during the Yorkshire Bank 40 campaign
Edgbaston suffered its seventh complete washout in 12 days of cricket when Warwickshire's televised day/night Clydesdale Bank 40 match against Sussex was abandoned without a ball being bowled.
Ironically, the abandonment came in bright sunshine 10 minutes before the scheduled start at 4.40pm, but the damage had been done earlier in the day when heavy showers topped up the already high water levels.
A final deluge two hours before the start left the groundstaff with a losing battle to get the playing area fit for cricket.
When the covers were removed there were muddy areas on old pitches on the Rea Bank side of the square and standing water on the outfield on the Pershore Road side of the ground.
After several inspections umpires Trevor Jesty and Jeff Evans decided that there was no chance of the ground drying out, even to allow a reduced overs contest, and the match was called off.
The abandonment followed three lost days in the Investec Test between England and West Indies at Edgbaston last month and the washout of last week's NatWest Series one-day international against Australia.
Two of Warwickshire's five home matches in the Friends Life t20 were also washed out without a ball being bowled and two more were badly rain-affected.
Warwickshire will hope for an improvement in underfoot conditions overnight as they are due to resume their LV= County Championship campaign against Sussex at Edgbaston tomorrow.
The start time for the opening day of that match had already been put back to 12 noon because of the scheduled late finish of this match.

As for your fast, I'm not sure how I can help as I have really very little knowledge or experience in this area. I also am not sure how you should break your fast. I guess how I'm eating could be categorized as intermittent fasting, but this is something that I feel has occurred naturally. As I added more fat to my diet, I felt less hungry. I really noticed this after I began doing a version of bullet proof coffee, adding extra virgin coconut oil, butter, mct oil, etc to your coffee, which filled me up. It taught me how to recognize that I was satisfied and could wait before I ate my next meal.
As far as what to eat, eat what you enjoy but keep track of everything your eating by measuring. I love bacon and have enjoyed it on the weekend with my girlfriends son. However, I recently have avoided it bc of the sugar. I also don't want the sugar to affect my state of ketosis.
When I have a bit of hunger, I drink water to see if I'm really hungry or not. My hunger signals can be mistaken for being thirsty at times. But if I'm still hungry shortly after I drink water, then I being to prep my meal.
I think measuring your body is a good way of tracking.

In the Mall at Short Hills' second brazen robbery in less than a week, two thieves smashed a glass display case at the Orologio watch store at the Millburn mall on Monday evening and fled with $28,000 worth of watches, police said today.
The suspects grabbed five watches and fled the mall around 7:43 p.m., said Millburn Police Lt. Michael Palardy.
Police said the two men fled the mall in a green minivan. Authorities said they do not know what the suspects used to break the window.
Last week, robbers rammed through the front door of Bloomingdale's before 4 a.m. and tried to take three fur coat racks. Two coat racks were recovered outside of the store and one was still in the store. Police are looking for four suspects in that incident.
Police are looking for two suspects in the latest theft. Palardy said both men were wearing long black coats and had facial hair.

THE JSE closed in the red on Monday, taking its cue from lower global markets and awaiting a decision from eurozone finance ministers with regard to the next aid disbursement for Greece.
At 5pm, the all-share index was down 0.26% to 37,766.24 points after rallying nearly 3% last week.
Gold counters provided some upside gaining 1.05% on a stronger bullion price and banks shed some value in sympathy with off-shore banks coming off.
"It has been a fairly quiet and unexciting market after we had the monster rally on Black Friday," a local trader said.
Leading European stocks were trading weaker, with the UK's FTSE 100 seen 0.50% lower at 4.49pm local time.
Meanwhile on the other side of the Atlantic, US stocks opened lower, taking a breath after strong gains in last week's holiday-shortened week, as uncertainty over aid for Greece overshadowed what appeared to be a strong start to the shopping season, Dow Jones Newswires reported.
At 4.49pm local time the Dow Jones Industrial Average had shed 0.54%, to 12,939 points.
On the local front, among individual stocks, Gold Fields added 1.54% to R106.62 and AngloGold Ashanti tacked on 0.78% to R276.42.
Aquarius Platinum was down 4.57% to R6.05, while ArcelorMittal SA recovered 6.47% to R31.94 and Exxaro added 1.15% to R156.99.

A new contractor will be operating, managing and maintaining the city of Santa Clarita's 99-bus fleet beginning this week.
MV Transportation, Inc. is replacing Violia Transportation to operate the city's commuter, fixed-route, dial-a-ride and ASI transit services.
"The award of MV Transportation is a great step in meeting the growing demand for the city of Santa Clarita Transit," City Transit Manager Jeff O'Keefe said in a statement.

The Los Angeles Kings struggled through parts of their first 10 games, but managed a 6-4-0 record. Just six L.A. players have a positive plus/minus rating. What exactly does that indicate? Well, opinions vary.
Some believe it shows how effective a forward is defensively. Others, like Brian Burke, dismiss it completely.
Regardless of how you view plus/minus, it remains one of the major NHL stats aside from goals, assists and points. As for the 2013-14 Kings, the majority of their players should be on the positive side by season's end.
With that said, here is a look at which five players will have the highest plus/minus rating this season.

Dallas police internal affairs records detail alleged police misconduct in pepper spraying case
Today, I wrote a story about an officer facing firing after internal investigators concluded that he lied about an incident in which a man was taken to West Dallas, doused with pepper spray and then left there.
One issue raised by the case is how should departments deal with an officer who comes forward and reports the misconduct of other officers.
In this case, the young rookie officer initially backed up the statement of the other officers. But then he subsequently admitted that one of his colleagues had intentionally pepper sprayed a man who wasn't doing anything to warrant it, according to police internal affairs records.
Police accountability experts say departments should consider on a case-by-case basis how to deal with officers who failed to initially report potential misconduct.
"You have to be careful how you handle the whistleblower because you don't want to dissuade other officers from coming forward in the future, even if they delayed reporting," said Richard Rosenthal, independent police monitor for Denver.
"Most departments would not ignore the fact that that the officer failed to report. The question is what discipline should the officer face for not reporting," Rosenthal said. "You have to look at the mitigating factors and then act accordingly. "
He believes departments need to look at, among other things, how much harm was done, how long did it take them to come forward, and did they do so because they'd been caught in a lie. He also said that the experience level of the officer should be considered.
"It's a challenge because the reality is that departments have to have policies that require immediate reporting," Rosenthal said. "At the same time, there has to be a recognition that socially and culturally it's difficult."
The "Thin Blue Line" is not just the stuff of movies. Many cops view peers who report misconduct as "squirrels" and will ostracize them.
Many police officers differentiate between "noble cause corruption" and "bad corruption."
"Bad corruption" would be something like taking a bribe or robbing a drug dealer, and they would not hesitate to report such criminal behavior.
The line gets blurry when dealing with so-called "noble cause corruption" — the idea that police are at war and the ends justifies the means, i.e. raiding a drug house without having probable cause to do so or roughing up a gang member.
It's in those cases that officers often suddenly get the "I didn't see or hear anything" syndrome.
As with anything else, once an officer crosses that line, it's a slippery slope to doing something far worse.
Consider the 1997 incident when 30-year-old Abner Louima, a Haitian immigrant, was arrested and sodomized with a broomstick in the bathroom of a Brooklyn police precinct.
I doubt those officers ever really intended to go so far, but I suspect that they had roughed up prisoners before, and this time it just got way out of hand. Therein, lies the slippery slope.

Ernie Fetzer has been a head football coach for three decades at several different high schools, so it's not lame praise when he characterizes the ability of his two best linebackers, seniors Mack Behe and Devin Lawhead, as uniquely special.
"I've probably had some really good linebackers over the years, but I don't know that I've ever had a tandem like this,'' Fetzer said of Penn Cambria's bruising senior inside linebacker combination of the 6-foot-2, 190-pound Behe and the 6-foot-2, 200-pound Lawhead. "Playing at the level that those two guys are playing at is pretty special. When you get kids who can play at that level, it just elevates everybody else around them.''
Lawhead will be a third-year starter at linebacker who will be moved to the starting fullback position on offense for the Panthers this season after starting at halfback as a sophomore and tailback as a junior. Behe suffered a broken leg prior to his sophomore season that forced him to miss that entire campaign. But he came back with a vengeance last fall to earn all-state honors at linebacker. He will also return at wideout on offense this year.

Fetzer said that both players lead their teammates by the inspired example they display on the field.
"It's not just the physical way that they play the game, but they also inspire others by the way they play,'' Fetzer said. "They're both different kinds of linebackers. Mack is more of an aggressive, go-after-you type, while Devin is more of a sit and read [the play] type of guy. They complement each other very well, which is really a neat thing.''
Lawhead and Behe have been playing organized football together since they were in the fourth grade. Penn Cambria uses a four-linebacker scheme on defense.

"We know where the other is on the field at all times,'' said Lawhead, who intercepted four passes last season. "When I'm blitzing, he's falling back [in run protection or pass coverage]. And when he's blitzing, I'm falling back. I always rely on him, and he always relies on me.''
Behe concurred.
"He's a really hard hitter who has good pass coverage skills,'' Behe said of Lawhead. "It's good to know that you can trust somebody [who plays] on the other side of you.''
Fetzer said that both Lawhead and Behe - who are both members of Penn Cambria's varsity basketball team - will also be looked at to bolster the Panthers' football offense this season.
"They both have nice size and nice speed,'' Fetzer said. "We're really looking forward to their contributions on the offensive side of the ball as well.''
