CONSOL Energy Center Off Topic: You've probably heard about the plane crash involving a KHL team already. Just awful. Look at that list of media coverage up there. That's insane. ESPN is showing something about hockey? Really? Shocking. Also, it looks like Canada is apparently closed during this media conference so everyone can watch this on every channel undisturbed. How do you go up against that kind of hype? Obviously with more hype! Hence, this post. Today, Sidney Crosby will likely provide an update about his training, say whether or not he's still feeling symptoms and provide no further details about his return to hockey. We'd be pretty shocked with anything else. But then again, no one knows. We're pretty sure that it won't be nearly as exciting as this: Do It. Go Pens. Go Sid.

MORGANTOWN - A dramatic shift in momentum at Milan Puskar Stadium has the West Virginia Mountaineers (3-3, 1-2 Big 12) leading the 16th-ranked Texas Tech Red Raiders (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) 27-23 with 2:26 to play in the third quarter.
The turnaround began with Texas Tech leading 13-3 and appearing poised to increase their lead with less than six minutes to go until halftime. However, a lengthy drive came to an abrupt end at the West Virginia 1-yard line, when quarterback Davis Webb was hit by Mountaineers safety Darwin Cook at the end of a run and fumbled. The ball was recovered for West Virginia by Isaiah Bruce.
The Mountaineers then went on a nine-play, 99-yard drive that ended with a 38-yard touchdown run by Dreamius Smith. The score was followed by a fumble on the ensuing kickoff by Texas Tech's Austin Stewart, recovered for the Mountaineers by Brandon Napoleon at the Red Raiders' 17-yard line.

While the Mountaineers gained just four yards following the turnover, Josh Lambert was able to kick a 30-yard field goal that tied the game with 23 seconds left in the second quarter. A four-yard touchdown pass from Mountaineers quarterback Clint Trickett to Charles Sims on the opening drive of the second half gave the Mountaineers their first lead of the game at 20-13.
Texas Tech responded with a 26-yard field goal from Ryan Bustin, his third of the game. But the Mountaineers drove back down the field again on their next drive, culminating in Smith's second touchdown of the game, this time from 12 yards out, to increase their lead to 11. Texas Tech was able to answer that touchdown with a score of their own, a 1-yard plunge by Kenny Williams that stood up under official review and cut the Mountaineers' lead to 27-23.
The Red Raiders got the scoring started early in the first quarter, gaining possession of the ball at the West Virginia 47-yard line after a punt and scoring on a 10-yard touchdown pass from Webb to Jace Amaro four plays later.
The Mountaineers drove into Texas Tech territory on the ensuing drive in an attempt to respond, but a Sims fumble was recovered by the Red Raiders at their own 32-yard line. Texas Tech then drove down the field before being held by the Mountaineer defense to a 21-yard Bustin field goal.
Bustin added a 36-yard field goal early in the second quarter to increase the Red Raiders' lead to 13-0, answered by a 33-yarder from Lambert.
Through three quarters, Trickett was 21 of 33 for 235 yards for West Virginia, including his touchdown pass to Sims. Webb had thrown for 353 yards for the Red Raiders, completing 29 of 36 attempts, including his touchdown pass to Amaro.

By Mike Glenn, Chronicle
A small girl drowned on Friday while swimming in the pool at a south Houston apartment complex.
The girl, 6, was spotted about 6:30 p.m. at the bottom of the pool at the Oakmoor Apartments, 11900 Oakmoor Parkway near Airport. She was pulled to the surface, police said.
"Bystanders began CPR until (Houston Fire Department paramedics) arrived," said Ivan Ulloa, an HPD homicide investigator.
The girl was taken to an area where she was later pronounced dead.
She was not identified. An apartment resident said she lived there with her family.
Detectives said other people were at the pool while the girl was under but wouldn't confirm if they were relatives.
"That's part of the investigation," Ulloa said.
Even as police continued their investigation into the night, residents began building a small memorial to the girl next to the pool.
"It's just terrible," one resident said as she drove into the apartment complex.

Call for Papers: The Ethical Consumer in Canada and Abroad
Location: McGill Institute for the Study of Canada, Montreal, Canada
Symposium Dates: August 21-22, 2014
Once an alternative practice, ethical consuming has found its way into the mainstream marketplace and consumer culture. With the growing acceptance of ethical consumerism, critics have questioned its efficacy as a mechanism of political expression while others have cited the difficulty in consumer decision-making when products can indeed embody multiple and sometimes conflicting values. The aim of this three-day symposium is to bring together cross-disciplinary scholars for the purpose of discussing Canadian examples of ethical consumerism. Junior and senior researchers from both within and outside academia are welcome as one desired outcome of the conference is to foster dialogue between people working on the topic in different environments.
Is ethical consumerism merely a trendy site of 'slacktivism' or rather a lively outgrowth of uniquely Canadian cultural values and a particular political-economic tradition? How are issues of class and buying power to be reconciled so that values-based consumerism doesn't remain simply a luxury of those who can afford it? We are interested in both contemporary and historical cases and welcome proposals from any time period in Canada and internationally. Research that is comparative in scope is also encouraged.
Papers addressing the following potential areas are encouraged (papers that fall outside these themes will also be considered): -contemporary and historical cases of consumer debates, consumer activism and consumer movements -values-based consumerism as strategic communication for corporations, brands and organizations (non-profits, NGOs, etc.) -Ethical consumerism for consumer self-expression, and as a means to communicate ethical membership and advocacy -consumption, employment/unemployment and sustainability debates -ethical banking -ethical consumerism and e-commerce -designing digital platforms to promote ethical consuming initiatives -media representations of ethical consumerism (discourses surrounding ethical consuming, fictional portrayals of ethical consumers) -ethical consuming in relation to branding -ethical consumption and religion -studies of ethical consumer decision-making in Canada -issues of class, accessibility, and obstacles to ethical consuming -thrift and ethical consuming
Proposals for papers of 20 minutes in length are invited. Please send a short abstract (300 words) to firstname.lastname@example.com. Deadline for abstracts is April 10, 2014. Notifications will be sent by the end of April.

• The California Civil Commitment Statute provides for prolonged (14-day) involuntary hospitalization of the mentally ill on the basis of grave disability (GD), danger to self, and danger to others. Recently the procedure has been modified to provide mandatory review of all 14-day certificates for GD. Comparison of 47 patients certified before the law change with 58 subjects certified after the change found that correlations between certification category and criterion measures were significant but low. Although the change was directed toward GD, no significant improvement was seen in the specificity of application of the GD category after the legal change. Because of these limited effects, the value of time-consuming mandatory judicial review is questionable. The attempt may have been doomed from the start because of unquantifiable commitment criteria. Before additional judicial burdens are imposed on the psychiatrist, careful assessment of the rationale for such procedures should be made.

Blackbeard's Last Fight - Pirate Hunting in North Carolina 1718by Angus Konstam Mark Stacey
In April 1713 the War of the Spanish Succession came to an end. During the conflict hundreds of privateers - licenced pirates - preyed on enemy shipping throughout the Caribbean. These privateers now found themselves out of a job, and many turned to piracy. One of theme was Edward Teach - more popularly known as "Blackbeard". He joined the pirates in New Providence (now Nassau) in the Bahamas, and by early 1717 he had become a pirate captain. From then on he caused havoc off the North American seaboard, in the West Indies and off Honduras, before appearing off Charleston, South Carolina in May 1718. He blockaded this major port for a week, an act that made Blackbeard the most notorious pirate of his day. He then "downsized" - deliberately running his flagship aground near Beaufort, North Carolina, before sailing north in a small sloop to seek a pardon from the colony's governor, Charles Eden. For late June onwards, Blackbeard lived in the colony's tiny capital of Bath Town, and pretended to have turned his changed his ways. However, he also established a den on nearby Ocracoke Island in North Carolina's outer banks, and used this as a base for pirate forays into the waters of the Virginia and Delaware. He then used Bath Town as a clearing house for his plunder.In the neighbouring colony of Virginia, Governor Alexander Spotswood decided to take action. Two British warships were anchored in Virginia's James River, and he and their captains began planning a raid - an attack designed to deal with Blackbeard once and all. In November 1718 Lieutenant Maynard was sent south down the coast with two hired sloops, and orders to seek out and destroy Blackbeard's sloop, the Adventure. At the same time a land expedition was mounted, led by Captain Brandt of the Royal Navy. His men "invaded" North Carolina, and marched on Bath Town, hoping to corner the pirates and capture their stockpile of plunder. On Friday 22nd November the sloops Ranger and Jane rounded Ocracoke Island, and attacked the Adventure. In the small but hard-fought action that followed Blackbeard's vessel was boarded, and the pirate captain was slain. While Maynard sailed home to Virginia with Blackbeard's severed head hanging from his bowsprit, Captain Brandt seized Bath Town, captured what pirates still remained at large, and then headed back in triumph to Williamsburg with his prisoners. Most of them would be hanged before the year was out. The attack on Blackbeard's lair was the largest anti-piracy operation of the "Golden Age of Piracy", and a textbook example of how to deal with the scourge of piracy.
French Guardsman vs Russian Jaegerby Mark Stacey Laurence Spring
After Napoleon's abandonment of Moscow on 18 October 1812, throughout the subsequent Wars of Liberation that saw most of Europe turn against the French and right up to the capitulation of Paris on 31 March 1814, it was the vast armies of Imperial Russia that bore the brunt of the fighting against forces of France and her dwindling list of allies. The Russian Jaegers - nominally skirmishers, but in reality spearhead troops tasked with a host of different and demanding battlefield roles, from storming villages to defending strongpoints - were a relatively new arm of service that gained enormously in combat experience and prestige in the bitter struggle to rid Europe of Napoleon's armies. The French Emperor's Young Guard - elite assault troops hand-picked from the best conscripts available - expanded hugely in the first months of 1813, eventually forming four divisions, and became the main strike force of the French field armies in the battles for Germany and France in 1813-14.These two forces clashed repeatedly during the period. At Krasnoe, southwest of Smolensk, the Russian forces overtook the retreating French army and threatened the invaders' road home, and so on 17 November 1812 the 1er Tirailleurs and 1er Voltigeurs of Roguet's 2nd Guard Infantry Division were ordered to take and hold the town of Uvarovo to cover the retreat of other French troops, clashing with the Tsar's Lifeguard Jaegers among others; although they held off the Russians and allowed Napoleon's decimated forces to evade capture, the two senior Young Guard regiments suffered appalling casualties. At the climactic battle of Leipzig nearly a year later the Finland Lifeguard Regiment, equipped and trained as Jaegers, took part in the Russian 2nd Lifeguard Infantry Division's successful counter-attack on the hotly contested Saxon village of Gossa on 16 October 1813, ejecting the French garrison, which included several Voltigeur regiments of Oudinot's I Infantry Corps of the Young Guard. At Craonne, near Reims, the veteran 14th Jaegers played a key role in frustrating Napoleon's plans to advance on Laon; these crack troops defended their well-sited emplacements for several hours, throwing back the Tirailleurs and Voltigeurs of Meunier and Curial's Young Guard divisions, which had attacked prematurely over difficult ground under heavy artillery fire.Featuring specially commissioned artwork, expert analysis and carefully chosen first-hand accounts, this absorbing study traces the evolving trial of strength between Russia's Jaegers and France's Young Guardsmen by examining three key clashes at unit level.
Italian Navy and Air Force Elite Units and Special Forces 1940-45by Mark Stacey Piero Crociani
This volume assesses the formidable Special Forces fielded by Italy's navy and air force in World War II. Italian Navy Special Forces were particularly active and respected in the Mediterranean, where 10th Motor-Torpedo Boat Flotilla used frogmen, 'two-man torpedoes' and explosive ram-boats. The Italian Air Force formed a special commando unit, ADRA, before the 1943 surrender; it was tasked with attacking Allied airfields and communications in North Africa. Men from ADRA and Army paratroopers formed the new 'Folgore' Regiment, which also continued to fight alongside German forces until 1945. In both cases, the pro-Allied Italian forces also formed 'mirror' units to fight alongside US and British forces, including the Recce Squadron 'F'. Featuring rare photographs and specially commissioned artwork, this book tells the story of the little-known elite forces fielded by Italy's navy and air force in World War II, some of whose successors remain in service with today's Italian armed forces.
Lion Rampant - Medieval Wargaming Rulesby Mark Stacey Daniel Mersey
Lion Rampant is a set of rules designed for fighting historical or Hollywood battles in the medieval period from the Norman Conquest to the Hundred Years' War. This period is well suited to large skirmish gaming as played with Lion Rampant as it was a time of anarchy, feuds, robbery, and raiding. Become Robin Hood, Richard the Lionheart, Gamelyn, William Wallace, Llewellyn the Last, or other legends and leaders from the colorful, dangerous medieval period. Lion Rampant is ideal for players who wish to collect medieval miniatures without wanting to muster huge forces or spend time learning complex rules.Gameplay is very simple, and requires the player to use units in the correct tactical way: knights are great at charging down enemies but less useful for guarding convoys, while spearmen are jacks of all trades and masters of none, and bowmen are to be feared at distance but easily cut down if you can get close enough. An army usually consists of 6-8 units comprised of 6-12 individually based figures (making it ideal for 15mm or 28mm games), and is led by a Leader, who may have some unique character traits that affect game play and provide some opportunity for role playing. The action, however, focuses very much on the small units involved in the battle rather than individual characters: each unit moves and fights independently, assuming that they follow your orders rather than just doing their own thing. Command and control is just as important on the battlefield as the power of a mounted knight.Some army lists are provided, and guidance given for players seeking to create their own forces, but this game is not army list-heavy. The rules include a good number of scenarios, which are important to this style of gaming.
The M60 Machine Gunby Kevin Dockery Mark Stacey
The US M60 Machine Gun, known as "the Pig," was developed in the years after World War II from two revolutionary German designs, combining the effective belt-feed system of the MG 42 machine gun with the bolt-operating design of the FG 42 rifle. Chambered for the standard NATO 7.62mm round, the M60 was the first US-issue machine gun to have a true quick-change barrel; it was capable of firing 100 rounds per minute in a sustained-fire role, with the gun team only having to change barrels every few minutes.Adopted in 1957, the M60 came into its own in the jungles, hamlets, and city streets of Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. "Humping the Pig" became common in US military squads, with at least one soldier equipped with an M60 and every squad member carrying ammunition for it. The M60 design transformed infantry tactics as squads took advantage of the immediate volume of fire offered by the design. In a fast-moving combat environment, the M60 could move forward with the troops, giving them a base of fire to attack a position without slowing down. Although the M60 could be operated by one man, the tripod mount allowed the weapon to be set up to fire over the heads of advancing troops, while the built-in bipod could be used by the gunner to quickly set up the weapon to fire on targets of opportunity. Special operations troops particularly favored the M60, and several versions of the weapon were mounted in helicopters, vehicles, and watercraft.In the decades following Vietnam, the M60 was extensively modified as a result of combat experience, resulting in the adoption of the M60E3. By the 1990s, Naval Special Warfare units had adopted the Mk43 Mod 0 Machine Gun, the M60E4. Although it has now been replaced by the M240 series of weapons in US infantry and mechanized units, the M60 is still in common use with the US armed forces. Meanwhile, its iconic status has been assured by its frequent appearance in many popular films and television shows, from Full Metal Jacket to The A Team.Featuring specially commissioned full-color artwork, this is the full story of the M60, the innovative squad base-of-fire weapon that has equipped the US military from the jungles of Vietnam to the deserts of Iraq.From the Trade Paperback edition.
Of Gods and Mortals - Mythological Wargame Rulesby Mark Stacey Andrea Sfiligoi
Factions represented in the rulebook include: Greco-Roman, Egyptian, Japanese, Aztecs, Pre-Islamic Arabs (Arabian Nights), Norse, Celts and Chinese. For every army list, a list suitable models from various manufacturers and scales will be included. New armies may be added as free PDF add-ons, keeping the game fresh for years.Two armies clash: Thor, surrounded by crackling lighting, leads the assault of a horde of Viking berserkers. Preparing to receive this charge stands a wall of grim-faced, determined Spartan hoplites, commanded by Ares. Of Gods and Mortals is a scalable skirmish rules set where the average scenario plays in about one hour using up to 20 models per player on a 4'x4' table. Each player controls one god, 1-3 Legends (priests, demigods, heroes, monsters or other mythical creatures), and 10 to 20 men (infantry, cavalry, and the occasional artillery piece). This creates a three-tiered structure in the warband. The three troop types are interdependent in more than one way.Gods lead men by their powers, while at the same time men give power to the gods by their faith in them. A God cannot exist without its Faithful. The Faithful cannot win without the help of their God. There is no automatic winning strategy: the player must balance his limited resources and outguess his opponent. A bit of luck helps, too!Gods may seem all-powerful but they lose power as their troops are killed. At the same time, if the God is defeated, the mortals' morale is weakened. Gods do not die but they disappear if defeated. Legends are a sort of middle ground and provide special abilities to the warband. Mortals are more effective when used against other mortals - kill your opponent's mortal forces and you will deprive his god of much needed energy.The faith level of the warband is tracked with dice at the side of the table. When the faith level is at the maximum, the army is bolstered, priests may invoke miracles and curses, mortal troops activate at +1, and so on. When the faith level is severely reduced, the power level of the god is reduced too, and priests may not perform miracles or use spells. When the faith level drops to zero, the god disappears and all the troops still in play must make a rout test.Combat between gods is conducted like normal, but in certain cases (if both roll a six), an explosion of power hits all mortal models in range. Combat between gods use a colored dice mechanic so they can battle each other for an extened time. Combat between mortals and legends use normal Song mechanics - opposed die rolls plus modifiers, with different game results based on how much the contest is won by. The game also introduces a mechanic in which a hero or other personality may swear an oath or boast that he will accomplish something within a set number of turns. If he manages to fulfill his oath, his army gets a morale bonus.
Oldest Allies - Alcantara 1809by Rene Chartrand Mark Stacey
Although somewhat overshadowed by Wellington's main campaign in the north, the Alcantara raid was an outstanding success. The primary objective of alarming and distracting the French forces in Spain was achieved. Furthermore, the raiders also succeeded in preventing a French incursion into Portugal and tied down one of Napoleon's best marshals. There were further raids to come, but the 1809 Alcantara raid delivered a strong, permanent message: that the Anglo-Portuguese were willing and able to strike back against the French, and that they would support their Spanish allies as much as they were able.
Tombstone - Wyatt Earp, the O.K. Corral, and the Vendetta Ride 1881-82by Sean Mclachlan Mark Stacey
The Gunfight at the OK Corral on 26 October 1881 is one of the most enduring stories of the Old West. It led to a series of violent incidents that culminated in the Vendetta Ride, in which Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and several other gunslingers went after their rivals the Cowboys.Like most tales of the Wild West, the facts are buried under layers of myth, and the line between good guys and bad guys is blurry. Wyatt Earp, leader of the so-called "good guys", was charged with stealing horses in the Indian Territory in 1870 and jumped bail. Becoming a buffalo hunter and gambler, he got into several scrapes and earned a reputation as a gunfighter. Several times he helped lawmen arrest outlaws, but usually his assistance came more because of a personal grudge against the criminal than any real respect for law and order. He even got fired from a police job in Wichita for beating up a political rival. So it was in Tombstone. He settled there in 1879 along his three brothers and "Doc" Holliday. Virgil and Morgan Earp worked as lawmen. As the Earps became a power in the town, investing in some businesses and starting others, they were soon at loggerheads with the Clanton Gang, the so-called "Cowboys." In that time and place, honest cowboys called themselves "ranchers" and the term "cowboy" was reserved for rustlers and other unsavory characters.The Tombstone Cowboys had Cochise County sheriff John Behan in their pocket and the struggle between the Earps and Cowboys was partially a political rivalry. It was also because the Earps had invested in the stagecoaches and the Cowboys liked to rob them. There was an element of lingering differences over the Civil War as well, something common in Wild West feuds. The Earps and friends were mostly Republican Northerners, while the Cowboys were mostly Democrats and former Confederates. This distinction wasn't clear cut, however, as at least one Confederate veteran rode with the Earps. Brawls and threats between the two sides became more frequent and culminated in a showdown near the OK Corral. Several Cowboys were loitering around hoping to attack Doc Holliday, so the Earps and Holliday decided to arrest them on the grounds that they were carrying weapons in town. In the shootout three Cowboys were killed and Virgil and Morgan Earp wounded.The Cowboys thirsted for revenge and shot Morgan Earp in the back five months later. Virgil was crippled in a separate shooting. Taking Morgan's body to Tucson, the surviving Earp brothers and Holliday spotted Frank Stillwell, one of the Cowboys suspected of murdering Morgan. They shot him down. A large posse under John Behan, including many Cowboys, chased after the Earps but never caught them.
US World War II Parachute Infantry Regimentsby Gordon Rottman Mark Stacey
From North Africa, Sicily, and Italy, to Normandy and Holland, the Battle of the Bulge, into the heart of Nazi Germany, and also in jungle battles in the Pacific the parachute infantry regiments were among the most highly decorated US Army units of World War II, and between them they saw action right across the world. The elite nature of these units led to their being committed to action not only in the way that had been intended; their quality tempted commanders to keep them in the line longer than their light armament justified, and they were tested to the limit. This engaging study traces the story of each of the 17 regiments, from their creation and training in the USA, through their deployments overseas, to their combat jumps and all their battles. It explains their structure and organization, and records their commanding officers and other notable personalities, such as their Medal of Honor recipients. The book is illustrated with wartime photographs, many previously unpublished, and with eight full-color plates detailing the specifics of their uniforms, insignia, and equipment practices - which often differed from unit to unit. Together, these plates offer a comprehensive study of the special clothing and gear worn throughout the US Army's parachute forces.

The War of Horus and Setby Mark Stacey David Mcintee
Egyptian mythology tells us that long ago the brother gods Osiris and Set ruled peacefully over the lands of Upper and Lower Egypt, each in his own kingdom. But over time Set came to covet his brother's lands and crown, and eventually the temptation overwhelmed him. Usurping Osiris' throne, Set began a blood feud that spread war, death and mutilation through both the heavens and the earth. Gods and men chose sides and took up arms on behalf of both Set and Horus, the heir of Osiris. This book retells the mythic struggle between Horus and Set, exploring the variations and background to the feud, and examining the earthly realities that inspired, or reflected, the actions and allegiances of the Gods, such as the political rivalries between the two kingdoms, and the invasion by Cambyses II. Egyptian weapons and strategies are also examined, showing how their gods and men did battle.
Winchester Lever-Action Riflesby Martin Pegler Mark Stacey
Winchester Lever-Action repeating rifles are an integral part of the folklore of the American West. Introduced shortly after the American Civil War, the very first Winchester, the M1866, would go on to see military service as far afield as Bulgaria, but it was in the hands of civilians that it would become known as 'The gun that won the west.' Offering a lethal combination of portability, ruggedness and ammunition interchangeability with pistol sidearms, the Winchesters and their innovative and elegant breech-loading system represented a revolutionary design. They were used by a staggering variety of military and civilian groups - gold-miners, trappers, hunters, farmers, lawmen, professional gunmen and Native Americans. It equipped a whole generation of settlers and as such left an imprint on American culture that continues to resonate today. This book explores the Winchesters' unique place in the history of firearms, revealing the technical secrets of their success with a full array of color artwork, period illustrations and close-up photographs.
Wizardsby Mark Stacey David Mcintee
From the wise and mysterious soothsayer with his long grey beard to the deathless necromancer practicing his dark magics in a forgotten dungeon, wizards have captured our imaginations since the earliest days of human storytelling, presenting us with some of our greatest heroes and villains. This book collects the tales of the most interesting, popular, and important spell-casters from history, including such legendary figures as Merlin, Simon Magus, Hermes Trismegistus, Koschei the Deathless, Nicholas Flamel, Dr John Dee, and Johann Georg Faust. Written to appeal to the modern reader, each tale captures the drama, the tragedy, and the wonderment that has ensured that these stories have survived the passing centuries. Each story is also examined in its historical, mythological, and thaumaturgical contexts.
A World Aflame # Interwar Wargame Rules 1918-39by Mark Stacey Paul Eaglestone
Often called the "Pulp Era", the years between the two World Wars have seen a tremendous surge in interest among wargamers. A World Aflame captures the adventurous nature of the time period to present a fun, fast-paced set of tabletop miniatures rules that can handle the many diverse conflicts of the period, from the Chinese Civil Wars and the "Great Game" in Central Asia, to the Irish War of Independence and the bitter ideological warfare of the Russian and Spanish Civil Wars. The rules also contain options for the "Very British Civil War". This gaming trend has sprung up in recent years, following a "what-if" scenario that has Edward VIII refusing to abdicate the throne, thrusting the country into civil war in 1938. It is a quirky, fun setting, and one that is surprisingly popular. Written by a life-long wargamer, A World Aflame focuses on the daring and heroism of battles fought in the last great era of adventure.

The U.S. sled hockey team and its two Buffalo-area stars showed the world Saturday that neither disability nor the vaunted Russian team could stand in its way.
Josh Sweeney, who lost both legs in Afghanistan in 2009 from a roadside bomb explosion, scored the only goal of a hard-fought game on Russian home ice in Sochi Saturday to capture the gold medal at the Paralympic Games.
The victory ranks as especially sweet for two local players on the team – Adam Page of Lancaster and Paul Schaus of North Tonawanda. Page, 22, played on the last U.S. team to win the gold in Vancouver in 2010. Schaus, 26, lost both legs in Afghanistan in 2009 – also to a roadside bomb.
The victory is also sure to raise the spirits of local fans like Norm Page, Adam's father and the national sled hockey representative for USA Hockey – who seemed to sum up the spirit of the sport in a Saturday story in The Buffalo News.
"There's so much pride with these young men to put their jersey on and try to win a gold medal," Page said of the team, which is made up of many military veterans. "They're representing their country in a different way."
CBS Sports reported Saturday that Sweeney scored the game's winning – and only – goal in the second period by stealing the puck from a Russian defenseman, moving in on the net, and lifting a shot up and over the goalie.
And that was all it took.
The U.S. had actually lost to Russia in the games' preliminary round, but bounced back to win the tournament in an effort that also featured a 3-0 shutout of Canada. The U.S. wins the first-ever back-to-back championships in sled hockey, which has been a part of international competition since 1994.
Jeff Sauer of the University of Wisconsin is the team's coach.
Norm Page told The News that the U.S. fans – numbering about 100 – would probably be drowned out by the overwhelming Russian crowd in the 7,000-seat arena.
But the athlete's father – who was spotted on television with tears in his eyes among the jubilant American fans – noted a gold medal would ramp up interest in the sport and expose more hockey enthusiasts around the globe to the skills of people with disabilities.

"Reacting to the Past" consists of elaborate games, set in the past, in which students are assigned roles informed by classic texts in the history of ideas. An alternative approach to undergraduate general education, the pedagogy seeks to draw students into the past, promote engagement with big ideas, and improve intellectual and academic skills.
Conference participants will learn about the pedagogy by engaging in intensive two-day workshops on a particular game, including A) The Threshold of Democracy: Athens in 403 B.C. and B) Defining a Nation: India on the Eve of Independence, 1945. In addition to game sessions, we will have discussions of a more general character on student motivation, teaching, liberal education, and the problems and possibilities of the "Reacting" pedagogy.
Additional details and online registration are available online at http://www.continuinged.ku.edu/programs/reacting/index.php. The priority registration deadline is March 21, 2008.

A composite sampling device was developed that can be installed at less than ten percent of the cost of automatic sampling systems currently used in Federal highway runoff studies. This device was operated for one year, along-side an automatic sampler at the I-5 side, to demonstrate that the two systems provide statistically identical storm composites.

SHENANDOAH JUNCTION - After months of work and planning, the Jefferson County Parks and Recreation Department has completed an outdoor wedding venue at Sam Michael's Park.
"These are the columns that were left from Sam Michael's home site, which burned down in 1981," said Jennifer Myers, director of the parks and recreation department. "We kept saying that we needed to do something with them, and in the fall we came out to re-route a trail system through the park. We kept coming back to this space thinking that we had to do something with it, so we came up with the idea to clean it up and rent it out for special events."
According to Myers, volunteers from the Civilian Conservation Corps and some Eagle Scouts removed brush, trash and debris left over from the fire to ready the site. Park maintenance staff put down mulch beds and planted flowers.

Jefferson County officials gathered recently for the ribbon cutting of a new wedding venue at Sam Michael's home site in Sam Michael's Park. The columns are part of the original home of Sam Michael, and will be used as a picturesque backdrop for weddings and events.
"The tents, chairs and tables we have set up today were donated by Jefferson Rentals, so none of that cost us anything. The stone was donated from Aggregate Industries. Aside from man hours, it cost us a little bit of money to get the electric and gravel and some of the mulch and flowers. The whole project cost less than $5,000," she said.
Myers said the parks and recreation department was looking for ways to potentially generate revenue for the parks system due to funding cuts in Jefferson County for Fiscal Year 2015.
Myers said in the future, there could be restrooms, a pavilion and a parking lot at the site.
"Hopefull, this will generate enough revenue that we can start putting in some of these improvements," Myers said.
For the rest of 2014, the outdoor wedding venue at Sam Michael's Park can be rented for $350. That figure only covers the use of the space-tent rentals, catering and other amenities would cost extra.
Myers said there are some couples that have already expressed an interest in getting married at Sam Michael's Park.
"We've had two calls that seem pretty firm. One gentleman wanted to have a wedding at the end of August, and we've gotten a call for a July wedding as well," Myers said. "It's just so nice to have this space used. I think so many people didn't event know it was here."

AUBURN HILLS – The Detroit Pistons were victimized by too many blank possessions in the final moments, and LeBron James didn't miss down the stretch of a close game, as the Miami Heat held off a spirited effort for a 101-98 win at The Palace of Auburn Hills.
The Pistons got a career-high 28 points from Austin Daye and an enormous rebounding edge, but couldn't overcome their late offensive futility and another major bout with turnovers.
The Pistons' last four possessions ended in two missed free throws by Brandon Knight, a turnover by Damien Wilkins on a pass dropped out of bounds, an air ball on a 3-point attempt by Daye, a Greg Monroe miss on a 5-foot shot which could have given the Pistons a lead, and a traveling violation which deprived Daye and the Pistons of a final shot.
The Heat scored six points during that stretch, all on James free throws, after the Pistons had taken a 98-95 lead on a Jonas Jerebko 3-pointer.
James finished with 32 points and Chris Bosh had 27, on 12-of-15 shooting, for the Heat. Mario Chalmers added 16.
Daye, playing extensively because Tayshaun Prince missed the game with a family matter, shot 10 of 18 from the floor and made four 3-pointers after making one in the first 18 games. He had 16 points in the second quarter to keep the Pistons in the game.
Monroe had 20 points and 10 rebounds, Knight 17 points, and Rodney Stuckey 15.

Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations
Okamoto Rubber Products Co., Ltd. 12/30/11
Department of Health and Human Services
|Public Health Service
Food and Drug Administration
|10903 New Hampshire Avenue
Silver Spring, MD 20993
Mr. Yoshiyuki Okamoto
Okamoto Industries Inc.
3-27-12, Hongo
Bunkyo-Ku, Tokyo, Japan
Dear Mr. Okamoto:
During an inspection of your firm located in Pathumthani, Thailand, on September 26 through September 29, 2011, an investigator from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determined that your firm manufactures Crown and CR Condoms. Under section 201(h) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. § 321(h), these products are devices because they are intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, or are intended to affect the structure or function of the body.
Our inspection revealed that the Crown and CR Condoms are misbranded under section 502(t)(2) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 352(t)(2), in that your firm failed or refused to furnish material or information respecting the device that is required by or under section 519 of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360i, and Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 803 - Medical Device Reporting. These violations include, but are not limited to, the following:
Failure to adequately develop, maintain, and implement written MDR Procedures, as required by 21 CFR Part 803.17. For example, the following failures were noted in your firm's (b)(4), Rev. 6, effective date Dec. 20, 2010. Your firm's procedure fails to establish a process that provides for:
(1) Timely and effective identification, communication, and evaluation of events that may be subject to MDR requirements. For example:
(a) Your procedure, as written, combines language from requirements of other regulatory or competent authorities with those from 21 CFR Part 803. This will result in incomplete, inadequate or even non-reporting of adverse events that meet the reportability requirements under 21 CFR Part 803.
(b) There are no definitions of what your firm will consider to be a reportable event under 21 CFR Part 803. To facilitate the correct interpretation of reportable events and to assure the quality of MDR submissions, the procedure should include definitions for become aware, caused or contributed, malfunction, MDR reportable event, and serious injury based on 21 CFR Part 803.3; reasonably known found in 21 CFR Part 803.50(b);and reasonably suggests found in 21 CFR Part 803.20(c)(1).
(c) Your firm's procedure states (b)(4). Failure to consider events involving devices that are marketed outside of the U.S.A. may result in a failure to meet the reporting requirements in 21 CFR Part 803.50. Please refer to the definition of an MDR reportable event in 21 CFR Part 803.3.
(2) A standardized review process or procedure for determining when an event meets the criteria for reporting under 21 CFR Part 803. For example, there are no instructions for conducting a complete investigation of each event and evaluating the cause of the event.
(3) Timely submission of complete medical device reports including:
(a) Although your firm references the use of the FDA Form 3500A for submission of MDRs to the FDA, the procedure fails to include information about how to access the form and what types of information should be included on the FDA Form 3500A;
(b) Circumstances under which an event must be submitted as a 30-day or 5-day report;
(c) How your firm will submit all information reasonably known to it;
(d) The circumstances under which your firm must submit a supplemental or follow-up report and the requirements for such reports;
(e) How to submit reports for events that occur outside the U.S.A. As stated above, if an event involves a device that is the same or similar to a device with marketing approval in the U.S.A., then your firm must also evaluate these events for reportability and submit MDRs as required.
(4) Description for how your firm will address documentation and record-keeping requirements including:
(a) Documentation of adverse event related information maintained as MDR event files;
(b) Information that was evaluated to determine if an event was reportable;
(c) Documentation of the deliberations and decision-making processes used to determine if a device-related death, serious injury, or malfunction was or was not reportable;
(d) Systems that ensure access to information that facilitates timely follow-up and inspection by FDA.
In addition, your firm's procedure includes references to baseline reports. Baseline reports are no longer required. We recommend that all references to a Baseline Report be removed from your firm's MDR procedure (see: 73 Federal Register Notice 53686, dated September 17, 2008).
If your firm wishes to submit MDR reports via electronic submission it can follow the directions stated at the following URL:
If your firm wishes to discuss MDR reportability criteria, it may contact the MDR Policy Branch at 301-796-6670 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Federal agencies may be advised of the issuance of Warning Letters about devices so that they may take this information into account when considering the awarding of contracts.
Please notify this office in writing within fifteen business days from the date you receive this letter of the specific steps your firm has taken to correct the noted violations, as well as an explanation of how your firm plans to prevent these violations, or similar violations, from occurring again. Include documentation of the corrections and/or corrective actions (including any systemic corrective actions) that your firm has taken. If your firm's planned corrections and/or corrective actions will occur over time, please include a timetable for implementation of those activities. If corrections and/or corrective actions cannot be completed within fifteen business days, state the reason for the delay and the time within which these activities will be completed. Your firm's response should be comprehensive and address all violations included in this Warning Letter. Please provide a translation of documentation not in English to facilitate our review.
In addition, FDA has noted nonconformances with regards to section 501(h) of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 351(h)), which are deficiencies within your firm's quality system pertaining to current good manufacturing practice requirements specified in the Quality System regulation found at 21 CFR Part 820. These nonconformances include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) Failure to evaluate complaints to determine whether the complaint represents an event which is required to be reported to FDA under 21 CFR Part 803 of this chapter, Medical Device Reporting, as required by 21 CFR 820.198(a)(3). For example, a complaint was received by your firm on June 16, 2010, alleging condom failure which resulted in medical treatment. The complaint was not evaluated for reportability. The complaint investigation was limited to testing of retained samples. No investigation was made of the medical treatment or diagnosis to determine if a serious injury had occurred.
(2) Failure to establish and maintain adequate schedules for the adjustment, cleaning, and other maintenance of equipment to ensure that manufacturing specifications are met, as required by 21 CFR 820.70(g)(1). For example:
(a) Maintenance activities for the (b)(4) machines have not been documented. The Yearly Maintenance Plan and Preventative Maintenance Plan for the (b)(4). No records exist to document the preventative maintenance (b)(4). No record exists to document the (b)(4).
(b) In May 2011, no monthly check was documented for the visual inspection for (b)(4), as required by the Yearly Maintenance Plan and Preventative Maintenance Plan.
(3) Failure to establish adequate procedures for identifying training needs and ensure that all personnel are trained to adequately perform their assigned responsibilities, as required by 21 CFR 820.25(b). For example, the production employee used the incorrect symbol in completing the Preventative Maintenance Check Sheet for the daily visual inspection of the lubricant sponges for June 2011 and August 2011.
Your firm's response to this letter should be sent to: Food and Drug Administration, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Office of Compliance, Field Operations Branch, White Oak Building 66, Rm 2609, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Silver Spring, MD 20993. Refer to CMS case #254174 when replying. If your firm has any questions about the contents of this letter, please contact: Paul F. Tilton, Chief, Ob/Gyn, Gastroenterology, and Urology Devices Branch, at 301-796-5770 or Fax 301-847-8137.
Finally, your firm should know that this letter is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of the violations at your firm's facility. It is your firm's responsibility to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations administered by FDA. The specific violations noted in this letter and in the Inspectional Observations, FDA 483, issued at the close of the inspection, may be symptomatic of serious problems in your firm's manufacturing and quality management systems. Your firm should investigate and determine the causes of the violations and take prompt actions to correct the violations and bring the products into compliance.
Sincerely yours,

In a two-year period, April, 1957, to April, 1959, 11 nurses and an x-ray technician at the Billings Deaconess Hospital, Billings, Mont., were seen with a syndrome of incapacitating pain and exquisite tenderness along the superficial and deep veins of the legs. In addition to this group of cases, an outbreak of a similar illness involving 44 persons was observed in Laurel (population 3,660; located 16 miles southwest of Billings) in the fall and winter of 1958-1959. The illness in many of the cases was severe and lasted for several months. All cases were adults; a majority were females. Studies made of the two groups failed to reveal a causative agent or a common factor which might have precipitated the outbreak. Because of the high incidence and the unusual age and sex distribution of the cases, it was felt that a report describing the clinical and epidemiologic observations made of

It's hard not to appreciate the wealth of talent possessed by Sabrina and Monica Flores.
A year ago, the diminutive but explosive pair teamed up to provide Livingston with valuable speed on the defensive flanks that was quite useful in defusing opponents' threats. But, even though freshmen, both weren't bashful of utilizing their quickness and confidence to get forward and lend additional support to an already-stacked offense.
The Flores sisters are listed on Livingston's pre-season form as defenders, yet, now sophomores, it would be foolish to think that will be their only calling. Anticipate the twins to continue to bolster the attack with forays forward.
Conventional thinking would lead you to believe Livingston's goal production will fall off with the graduation of 2010 Star-Ledger Player of the Year Kate Schwindel. While there may be truth to that, I think the idea that scoring will be sparse is a bit misguided.

I must commend your good jobs.
While trying to follow the tutorial, I could not find the Code first model templates in the ADO.NET entity data model in entity data model wizard.
I'm using VS Ultimate 2013.
I will greatly appreciate your help.
Thank you.
Thanks Rowan, any plans to support indexes and migrations with the Model-First approach? EF has always supported both approaches but it seems lately that Code-First is getting lots of love and people using models are sorta left behind.
@yemo1: You need to install the EF6.1.0 tooling to have this option. At this time it's only available in Beta form - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41928.
@GuyGodin: We do want to enable migrations with the designer, unfortunately it's hard/time-consuming to do (just because of the way the designer was implemented). You can vote on the feature here - https://entityframework.codeplex.com/workitem/89.
Rowan Miller , should be nominated the official trainer for all future channel 9 demo presenters!
Super great presentation, with a rich follow up information.

Nice column by Julia - hard times today do produce a bit of nostalgia for the good times when cars were churning off the assembly lines in Detroit. But don't count out GM yet. This bankruptcy thing could be just what they need to become competitive and start making good cars again.
Jim Benning 06.12.09 | 11:26 AM ET
Yeah, that a was nice piece by Julia.
I just read Timothy Egan's piece on the murder case in Italy. So troubling.
So is this comment posted below the story: "This is troublesome and makes me rethink my own plans for studying abroad."

Nakeydran Williams, the 16-year-old accused in the shooting deaths of three other teenagers at a party in Baker, will stand trial as an adult.
East Baton Rouge Juvenile Court Judge Kathleen Richey ruled Monday that there is probable cause to try Williams on three counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted first-degree murder.
Two 15-year-olds, Marcell Franklin and Kendal Dorsey, and 18-year-old Diontrey Claiborne died in the shooting at The Baker Civic Club on March 28. Javaughn Simmons, 19, was also injured in the shooting.
"This matter is now transferred to district court, where we treat him as an adult, which means we'll have to go to grand jury for an indictment," East Baton Rouge District Attorney Hillar Moore III said after Monday's hearing. "For him, it means that he will be transferred to the parish prison."
Curtis Nelson Jr., assistant district attorney and section chief for the juvenile section, led the case against Williams, arguing that three witnesses told authorities the 16-year-old had a gun and two of them said Williams did the shooting. The first witness, who is referred to as A.M, a juvenile female, sent text and Instagram messages Saturday confirming Williams as the shooter to Fredrick Givens, a man who hosted the Friday night party at the Baker Civic Club, located at 2640 Magnolia Dr.
Greg Brown, a lieutenant with the Baker Police Department, says Givens told authorities that he received a message on Instagram: "I was there, sorry it happened. I know who the shooter was."
Givens told Brown he began texting back and forth with A.M., and she eventually told him "Nakeydran Thomas" did the shooting. Brown testified that A.M. used the wrong last name because she was afraid to say the correct name.
A.M. then sent a picture later to be identified as Nakeydran Williams. In the photo, Brown says Williams was wearing a Scotlandville High School t-shirt. East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's detective Leonardo Moore says once he saw the photo, he contacted officials at Scotlandville and they confirmed Williams' identity. From there, authorities found his home address and arrested him just after 5 p.m. (March 29).
The second witness, 19-year-old Alvin Mott, and brother to A.M., told authorities that he saw Williams shoot a gun.
"Nakeydran must of been on something and just started shooting," Mott told police. Brown says Mott and Williams are friends.
A.M. and Mott were both subpoenaed but failed to show Monday.
The third witness called to testified, Williams' girlfriend – who is referred to as J.H. in court because of her age – originally told police that she saw Williams fire off one gunshot and Mott fired three gunshots but in Monday's hearing, she recanted her statement, saying that she saw neither Williams nor Mott shoot. J.H. testified once she heard gunshots, she went to the floor and when she got up, Williams told her to "go."
J.H. told the court that she recanted her statement because when she was brought in for questioning on March 30, police threatened her with jail time if she did not tell police the story they wanted to hear. Greg Brown, a lieutenant with the Baker Police Department denied J.H.'s claims during his testimony, stating that he and another officer told J.H. to tell the truth or she could be facing an accessory to murder charge. J.H. did testify that Williams told her he had a gun at the party Friday night.
During his testimony, Brown says Simmons, also known as "CoCo" may have initiated a confrontation with Williams. Brown testified that "CoCo" was "bucking," a wild dance consisting of jumping around a party.
The lieutenant says at some point "CoCo" got into Williams face, and in return, Williams smiled and released three to six gunshots.
Police say all of the projectiles from the gun found in the victim's bodies came from one gun, believed to be a revolver, according to a Louisiana State Police Crime lab analysis.
A murder weapon, however, has yet to be recovered. "It's not unusual," Moore said. Most people that commit a murder do not want to get caught. They don't keep the gun on them. They transfer guns around or they discard the weapon."
Erica Green, Williams' defense attorney, tried to argue that the police did sloppy work and failed to produce any hard evidence implicating Williams' as the shooter.
Green says the prosecution did not test Williams for gun residue that may have been found on his hands, nor did law enforcement check to see if the close to 40 witnesses were under any drug influence.
Moore says Williams and Mott have been involved in violent crimes before.
"These two gentlemen have been arrested in the past. Those cases were crimes of violence," Moore said.
During her testimony, J.H. claimed that every time a shooting occurs, Mott had something to with it. Moore said based on the results from the ballistics, law enforcement chose not to press charges against Mott.

I am quite aware of what difference in a person's life one's educational experience may present. I realize how impactful I can be in my students' lives if I go above and beyond in trying to assist them, help with their questions, and continue to provide my students with the much needed motivation. I hope to inspire my students the way I was inspired by my teachers - with my enthusiasm, professionalism, and academic excellence. Ashford's faculty members have our student's best interest in mind. We are here to help and they should never hesitate to contact us and discuss any questions they may have." She lives in Jacksonville, FL with her spouse and two children – a boy and a girl.

American Monetary Institute And International Bank Activities Reform Commission Issue Advice To Icelandic Parliment 0 comments
Dear Friends of the AMI and IBARC,
December 2nd was the deadline to submit comments to the Iceland Parliament on a proposed monetary study to be voted on by them, and AMI submitted the following comment, which is followed by a comment by the world's first trillionaire, the only current financial backer of the International Bank Activities Reform Commission (IBARC):
Tel. 224-805-2200, email firstname.lastname@example.com
Dedicated to the independent study of monetary history, theory, and reform
"Over time, whoever controls the money system controls the society."
Stephen Zarlenga, Director
Sunday December 2nd
American Monetary Institute respectfully issues this public comment on Lilja Mosesdottir's Proposal for An Icelandic Parliamentary Resolution on forming a specialist committee to evaluate the benefits of "separating the money creation and money lending functions in Iceland." Matter nr. 239.
In brief, the AMI thinks it is a good proposal.
Iceland's crisis has received worldwide attention, and it would be
good for the world to see Iceland taking such a good step toward a real solution.
Normally, "pretend reformers" go on endlessly describing the problem, but when it comes to the solution, they go off the "deep end," and propose nonsense. That is an old tactic, and so this proposal is in the right direction.
Today there is a general awakening to the dangers to society, of any money system where the private banking establishment controls the process by which it issues what is used for money in the society. This awakening results from several events, among which are the following:
The worldwide monetary and economic destruction brought on by such control, and a consequent recognition of the deeply parasitic nature of banking systems being used in all parts of the Western World today.
Additionally, this became recognized in the United States
through several factors. For example:
My book, The Lost Science of Money - The Mythology of Money, the Story of Power; which examines the historical aspects of the money problem from Aristotle forward, in 23 Chapters
(see http://old.monetary.org/lostscienceofmoney.html).
Then Chapter 24 shows how to apply what is learned from history, to solving the problem in the U.S. today (see The Need for Monetary Reform at http://www.monetary.org/the-need-for-monetary-reform/2009/09)
That book resulted in the proposed American Monetary Act (see
http://www.monetary.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/32-page-brochure-sept20111.pdf) which became the basis for Congressman Dennis Kucinich's creation and introduction of HR 2990 into the current U.S. 112th Congress.
Called the NEED Act (National Emergency Employment Defense Act), it is essentially a monetary reform act, modeled on the Chicago Plan, which our great economic minds created in 1935 to end the Great Depression.
The National Committee of the U.S. Green Party approved a
national plank which embodied this proposal (see http://www.monetary.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/2010-GREEN-PARTY-APPROVED-MONETARY-PLANK.pdf).
Prof. Kaoru Yamaguchi, of Doshisha University in Japan put
the American Monetary Act and HR 2990, (see
http://www.monetary.org/modeling-the-american-monetary-act/2010/12) through his advanced System Dynamics computerized projection and concluded that they (1) provide the funding for infrastructure repair (which solves the unemployment crisis) (2) Pay off the national debt as it comes due (3) Does this without inflation!
These events are some of the facts leading to Dr. Michael Kumhof, (Deputy Division Chief, Modeling Dept., of the International Monetary Fund, IMF) doing his study, The Chicago Plan Revisited; an IMF Working Paper, which has swept the world's economist community like wildfire
(see http://www.monetary.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/ChicagoPlanRevisited.pdf).
This is the first time anyone has done this exercise, and it showed
outstanding results for the Chicago Plan; including that it would have much less tendency for inflation, than a privately controlled money system has. That is one reason for its wide interest. Another is that it goes counter to many widely held, but unsubstantiated beliefs about
monetary matters.
Should Iceland's Parliament become familiar with the above events and how they relate to Iceland's possible future money system? Obviously and emphatically YES!
Can that be accomplished by January 1st, 2013 as the proposal
recommends? We respectfully recommend giving the reporting committee at least until March or June 1 to give its report. It takes more time than a month to do this work properly, and it must also be considered in relation to the monetary system dominating around the world, and to what extent Iceland can go it alone.
However, understand also that the dominant system must now go through substantial reform, and little Iceland can have an important impact on that reform by promoting a monetary system designed to aid humanity, production, and justice; not just a corrupt finance sector.
That would be a shot heard round the world!

Heather Cox Richardson: When Republicans Deliberately Sowed a Financial CrisisRoundup: Historians' Take
Heather Cox Richardson is a professor of history at Boston College and the president of the Historical Society.
This week, President Barack Obama won re-election in a victory that so surprised many of his ideological opponents that they have spent the hours since wailing that the country is going to wrack and ruin.
With a divided and polarized government, and a battle looming over a "fiscal cliff" of more than $600 billion in tax increases and spending cuts scheduled for next year, Obama faces a rocky term ahead -- even assuming his Republican opponents negotiate in good faith.
But good faith fiscal negotiation isn't something a president can always count on. In 1892, a dramatic Democratic victory prompted Republicans to sabotage the economy in order to ruin the incoming administration.
Then, as now, Republican insiders couldn't believe that misguided voters had bucked the wise business leaders who backed the Republican incumbent. At the annual meeting of the New York Chamber of Commerce, held at the fancy Delmonico's restaurant shortly after the election, members commiserated over vintage wine and an expensive dinner. Republican railroad baron Chauncey Depew snarled to his comrades about the Democrats who had just taken over Congress and the White House for the first time since the Civil War. "Business interests" were dangerous, he warned, and the Democrats had better be careful....

Album Review
Though it's one of the best
Four Tops
records of the '60s,
Reach Out
still feels weighted down by a few vain attempts at adult pop crossover. It certainly starts out right, with the glorious "Reach out, I'll Be There," the group's second pop/R&B chart-topper. After a faithful cover of
the Left Banke
's "Walk Away Renee," though, listeners are forced to sit through trite versions of "If I Were a Carpenter," "Last Train to Clarksville," and "I'm a Believer" to get to real highlights like the dramatic, impassioned "Standing in the Shadows of Love" and "Bernadette." There is room for a great lesser single ("I'll Turn to Stone"), but the flip side finds
the Four Tops
taking on "Cherish," which could've worked well but didn't.
Reach Out
still did better than any other original LP by the group, almost breaking the Top Ten.
