This fragrance-free, plant-based laundry detergent I found at Nature's Temptations in Ridgefield is a great choice for those looking to move away from heavily-scented, chemical-laden detergents. In fact, the ingredient list is as follows: Purified Water, Plant-Based Surfactants, Natural Soap Bark, Chamomile and Natural Plant-Based Extracts. That's it! It contains a soy-based fabric softener they say makes it delicate enough for baby clothes and hand washables.
Its ultra-concentrated formula means you only have to use one ounce per load. Plus, the bottle is manufactured using half the plastic of a standard 100-ounce bottle, which means less environmental impact in that respect. The detergent is purported to be low-sudsing, which makes it suitable for both front loaders and high efficiency washing machines.
$10.99. Nature's Temptations, 32 Prospect Street, Ridgefield. (203) 438-5443. www.naturestemptations.com

[[caption-width-right:350: [[FlatJoy Hooray...]]]]
%% No opening quotes, please. Let's let the folks read the actual article. If you have an example that happens to be a quote, put it in with the examples.
A "woobie" is a name for any type of character who makes you feel extremely sorry for them. Basically, the first thing you think to say when you see the woobie is: "Aw, poor baby!" Woobification of a character is a curious, audience-driven phenomenon, sometimes divorced from the character's canonical morality.
A story with the Woobie allows the audience to vicariously experience relief from some pain by fantasizing about relieving the Woobie's pain. (No, not ''[[IntimateHealing that]]'' way! Well, okay, [[RuleThirtyFour sometimes]].) Woobification can also tie into a disturbing hurt/comfort dynamic, in which fans enjoy seeing the Woobie tortured so they can wish the hurt away. This is often explored in HurtComfortFic.
An important aspect of the Woobie is that their suffering must be caused by external sources. A character who suffers as the result of their own actions is a TragicHero and does not qualify.
The difference between the Woobie and such SickeninglySweet characters as the LittlestCancerPatient is that the audience actually finds the Woobie compelling rather than pathetic. Where you draw the line is sometimes a matter of opinion.
Sometimes a Woobie goes OmnicidalManiac and seeks to destroy the world in a bid to make the pain stop, in which case you're dealing with a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds. Sometimes it's possible to bring such a woobie back from the edge, but other times, only his or her destruction in a ShootTheDog moment will stop things.
In LighterAndFluffier fiction, the Woobie can sometimes [[EarnYourHappyEnding earn their happy ending]].
In many versions there is also something about the Woobie's suffering that is notably heroic or noble. In this case the character is an IronWoobie. When the Woobie does not show much outward emotion about their hurts (or anything else, for that matter), they are a StoicWoobie.
In {{anime}}, the Woobie makes up a large part of {{Moe}} characters. Part of their appeal can come from them constantly striving against [[YankTheDogsChain their chains]]. Can be taken to the point of BreakTheCutie, and if the amount of misfortune seems too great it may result in DeusAngstMachina.
If the character is TheChewToy, a {{Jerkass}}, or evil, he is not the Woobie ([[JerkassWoobie unless the character is also meant to be sympathetic]]). If the character doesn't let bad events faze him, he is not the Woobie. A small, one-off bad event does not make the character the Woobie, though it may qualify as a TearJerker.
If in your opinion the character desperately needs to die, that's likely DamselScrappy. Should '''not ever''' be confused with ButtMonkey. However, a Butt Monkey can often become a Woobie if [[DesignatedMonkey abused too mercilessly]].
A character who is considered a woobie can also be considered a TragicHero on some occasions, though not every woobie may have a FatalFlaw that defines such classifications.
For the curious, the fanspeak term "woobie" is ultimately derived from a word for a blanket, stuffed animal, or other soft object that a child keeps for its comforting properties (hence the name--some of these characters really ''could'' use a snuggling!).
Subtropes include IronWoobie, StoicWoobie, JerkassWoobie, MonsterSobStory, and WheelchairWoobie.
Not to be confused with a species of [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookiee hairy bipedal humanoids that inhabit the planet Kashyyyk.]], or [[http://wubi-installer.org/ a Linux installer]].

Des Moines' School District Tries New Approach with Grading
By Ben Kieffer & Clare Roth • Aug 28, 2014
The school year has begun once again, and students heading back to Iowa's largest school district may notice a difference in the way they are graded.
Middle schools and some high schools in the Des Moines Public School District are adopting a grading practice called "standards-referenced grading." Nanci Smith, a national curriculum consultant supports this new style of grading, saying it eliminates bias and gives a more accurate assessment of what students learn. River to River host Ben Kieffer also talks with Mary Cooksley, of the Oskaloosa Community School District, who describes how the program has worked in those schools over the past three years.

Schalke boss coming to terms with losing Raul and Farfan
Schalke manager Huub Steven admits that the club cannot prevent star players Raul Gonzalez and Jefferson Farfan from leaving the club in the summer.
The two players have contracts that are set to expire at the end of the season and are unlikely to sign new deals with the Miners.
Even the Schalke boss is skeptical about the player's future at Veltins Arena.
"I only count on them until the summer," Stevens told German newspaper Sport Bild.
"With Jefferson and Raul I have no illusions. If clubs come with good financial backing then there is little chance (of holding onto them)."
The Spanish veteran has been offered a one-year extension, but his hefty wage and offers from China and Saudi Arabia could prove to be a stumbling block.
The club chiefs are also not satisfied with Raul's showings in big games and everything suggests the former Real Madrid captain is set to leave at the end of the season.
Jefferson Farfan has made his mind about leaving the club early into the season and after being informed of the player's decision, Schalke chiefs recruited Nigerian forward Chinedu Obasi as a replacement.

RUSH: The regime. And Egypt. First let's go to audio sound bite number three. We have a montage here of the regime's flip-flops and mixed messages on Egypt. This is an anatomy of a botched foreign policy. What you're gonna hear here is the illustration of the definition of incompetence.
JOE BIDEN: (January 27, 2011) Mubarak has been an ally of ours in a n-number of things. I would not refer to him as a dictator.
MRS. CLINTON: (January 30, 2011) It's not a question of who retains power. That should not be the issue. You cannot keep trying to put words in my mouth.
OBAMA: (February 1, 2011) (godlike echo) What I indicated tonight to President Mubarak is my belief that an orderly transition must be meaningful, it must be peaceful, and it must begin now.
ROBERT GIBBS: (February 2, 2011) "Now" means yesterday. 'Cause when we said "now" we meant yesterday.
FRANK WISNER: (February 5, 2011) The President must stay in office in order to steer those changes through. I, therefore, believe that President Mubarak's continued leadership is critical.
MRS. CLINTON: (February 6, 2011) We respect the many years of service that Frank Wisner has given to our country but he does not speak for the American government. He does not reflect, uh, our polices.
OBAMA: (February 6, 2011) Egypt is not going t'go back to what it was.
ROBERT GIBBS: (February 8, 2011) Less important is what we think and more important is what the people of Egypt think.
RUSH: So that's a sound bite montage of everybody that you heard there is a member of the regime. And they're all over the board about what our policy is gonna be. Obama has recorded, exclusively for this audience, another message to the Egyptian people.
(playing of Obama spoof)
RUSH: And that was just the line outside the Porta-Potties. It was even worse as he got closer to the center of the movement. From the AP: "The White House is working aggressively to erase conflicting messages on Egypt that have frustrated even President Barack Obama." (laughing) The frustrating messages from the regime are frustrating even the leader of the regime! The White House is working aggressively? Who is "the White House," here? Who is it? Is it Gibbs? Is it Biden? Is it Obama? "The White House is working aggressively to erase conflicting messages on Egypt that have frustrated even" Obama. Well, who the hell is in charge, then?
"After comments by some State Department officials were widely interpreted as diverging from the White House stand, the White House sought to dispel any notion that it's either loosening pressure on President Hosni Mubarak or backing off from supporting the protesters flooding Cairo. Much of the White House ire centered on comments [you just heard here] made by Frank Wisner, the retired U.S. diplomat who was dispatched by Obama to help nudge Mubarak out of office. Wisner stunned Obama officials by saying Saturday that Mubarak's continued leadership was critical..."
Now, imagine this. The regime picks out this guy, they send him over there and his charge is, "Look, Frank, when you get over there you're supposed to just tell Mubarak he's gotta go. You're delivering a message from me, 'Barack Hussein Obama! Mmm, mmm, mmm,' and when you get there, you tell him scram. Get outta there." So Wisner gets over there and says just the exact opposite: "that Mubarak's continued leadership was critical as Egypt worked through reforms." Mrs. Clinton had to pipe up and say (paraphrased), "Well, he's a respected guy but he's a stupid idiot and he doesn't speak for us."
Well, you sent him! The regime sends the guy. He makes a statement and it's not what the regime wants stated. "Obama himself showed his frustration about what Wisner said ... Yet part of the confusion has stemmed from the government's own message. Comments by some State Department officials seemed to tack too far from the White House stance, particularly by raising doubts about whether it was wise for Mubarak to resign now, as protesters in his repressed nation demand. What's more, White House officials were frustrated about some of the news reporting on events.
"The overall concern was that the narrative was getting cloudy and certainly not focused on the events in Egypt." They've lost control of all of this, and they're admitting here they've lost control of the media! (laughing) Wisner is their own guy, folks! It's total amateur hour -- and in this country, we've got some of the best and the brightest, some of the most learned intellectuals analyzing this in some of the loftiest ways, and it's the Three Stooges. This is Abbott and Costello. This is Who's on First. Again, the regime picks a retired State Department guy, sends him over there with the purpose to tell Mubarak to get outta there, to nudge him away. Wisner gets over there and says, "Uh, uh, this place needs Mubarak for a long, long time." (laughing)
This frustrates Obama, and now they get frustrated with some of the reporting on the events. "[O]n Tuesday, when Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs was asked about State Department comments on the risks if Mubarak leaves hastily, he bristled. 'I want to be clear,' Gibbs said. 'I speak for the president of the United States of America. We are not here to determine who leads Egypt and when they lead Egypt.'" Really? Gibbs just said last week: Get out of there now. Last week the regime's position was that Mubarak had to go, now! "Now" meant "yesterday." We had that in the sound bite montage: "Now" meant "yesterday."
Now Gibbs is saying: "We don't have anything to say about this!" They send a guy over there to get rid of Mubarak, the guy double-crosses 'em and says Mubarak is totally necessary, Gibbs comes back and says, "Screw the media! Screw all you people here! We're not here to determine who leads Egypt and when they lead Egypt." Well, what the hell has this all been about, then? Obama put himself in front of that mob. He owns that mob. He made speeches to that mob, he made promises to that mob (whoever they are) that Mubarak was gonna be gone and some brand-new day was gonna dawn over there (Muslim Brotherhood or whoever it was).
People are being killed in Egypt! This is rampant confusion. I know it's Obama and we laugh at him and we're having fun, but this is serious stuff. People listen to what the president of the United States say! The president of the United States goes on worldwide television with that godlike reverb and pronounces Mubarak essentially over. "We support reform, and we demand that it happen now," the crowd cheers, more people join the crowd, everybody gets all hot and bothered about it. That all breaks down, and now the White House is saying, "We're not in charge of this. Whoever runs Egypt and whenever they run Egypt, that's not what we're about," and, meanwhile, people are being killed in Egypt because of this confusion!
Here's Dianne Feinstein. Well, I gotta take a break. But Dianne Feinstein is ripping the regime -- not the Mubarak regime, ripping the Obama regime -- telling 'em they don't understand what's happening over there.
RUSH: Yesterday afternoon on television, Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington, talked to Senator Dianne Feinstein of California who also probably doesn't understand much of what's going on. More on that in just a moment. But Andrea Mitchell said, talking about the transfer of power in Egypt, "Do you think that that can be done; guarantees of something so that there isn't a total vacuum and that there are political organizations and a process for elections? Can that happen within weeks or at the most months, or do we have to wait until September as Mubarak says he prefers?"
Now, let me translate the question. Here's a journalist, who actually by virtue of the question thinks that she has a role in policy here. And notice the narrative. The narrative starts: we gotta get rid of Mubarak. He's rotten. He's a dirty skunk. This guy's horrible, go, now, get gone. That's the position of the regime last week. Now the regime's done a double-take, and they're backed off that. Andrea Mitchell either hasn't gotten the memo or she still thinks Mubarak needs to go. She's got Di-Fi up there on her show. (imitating Mitchell) "Is there anything we can do? Do we have to wait weeks? Do we have to wait months? Is there anything we can do to get rid of this slime?" That's the question. And here's Di-Fi's answer.
FEINSTEIN: Let me say one more thing, and that is concern that we have over fundamentalist Islamic sects taking over, and I think it's very real that we do not --
RUSH: Stop the tape, stop the tape, recue it here. I'm sorry. For you in Rio Linda, it's s-e-c-t-s. They're not worried about Islamic sex in Egypt. Groups, Islamic groups, sects, religious sects. Here's the answer.
FEINSTEIN: Let me say one more thing, and that is concern that we have over fundamentalist Islamic sects taking over. And I think it's very real that we do not understand the ebb and flow of the currents in the Middle East. I remember in 2006 when it was being discussed whether Hamas should be permitted to run in Gaza, I think perhaps we don't understand this, and one thing that needs to be looked at is that border with the tunnels between Gaza and Egypt and whether the military is still able to keep weapons from flowing both ways.
RUSH: Do you understand it, folks, Dianne Feinstein of the Intelligence Committee is saying we don't understand that this could be an Islamist takeover, and she's speaking not just of herself but of the regime. We don't understand what this could be. Why don't we understand? Because forces have formed here in this country, both in the media and outside, to reject that as so unlikely, "No, this is for good. This is all about democracy, and we must blanketly support. This could not be anything to do with an Islamic sect take over." Except Dianne Feinstein says, "We don't understand, Islamists could take over Egypt." She's right.
RUSH: I want to play this Andrea Mitchell/Dianne Feinstein sound bite again. Yesterday afternoon on MSNBC, Andrea Mitchell Reports, Dianne Feinstein was asked, "What can we do about this Mubarak guy? Do we have to wait weeks? Do we have to wait 'til September? When can we get rid of this guy?"
FEINSTEIN: Let me say one more thing, and that is concern that we have over fundamentalist Islamic sects taking over. And I think it's very real that we do not understand the ebb and flow of the currents in the Middle East.
RUSH: Who's we?
FEINSTEIN: I remember in 2006 when it was being discussed whether Hamas should be permitted to run in Gaza, I think perhaps we don't understand this, and one thing that needs to be looked at is that border with the tunnels between Gaza and Egypt and whether the military is still able to keep weapons from flowing both ways.
RUSH: So is Dianne Feinstein saying, "I don't think we understand." I don't know who "we" is. I clearly, all of us see what's going on in Egypt and we clearly are open to the possibility that we have an attempted Islamist takeover there, just like Iran. In 1979, did we not understand that? Jimmy Carter? Who is this "we"? Did we not understand the ebb and flow of Islamist fundamentalism in Iran? Who is this "we" don't understand it? You know, those of us who have been raising flags about the possibility of an Islamist takeover have been ridiculed. Everybody out there in the learned elements of our culture are taking potshots at those of us who raise the possibility, "Hey, you know what? This might not be all that democracy oriented. This might be the latest Islamist takeover. There is evidence to suggest that this is who they are and what they want."
The Muslim Brotherhood members, they plotted, they failed, but they've tried to take over Egypt for 82 years, since 1928. And now we're told, "Well, they're just not like that anymore, you know, they're really a moderate bunch." I love hearing, "Oh, yeah, the Muslim Brotherhood is a moderate bunch." And then they say that the Muslim Brotherhood represents only 20 to 30% of the population. "Really nothing to worry about, Rush, there's nothing going on here, nothing to see here. They're just 20 to 30% of the population." But the same people do not tell us that the other 70% of the population will not dare stand up to the Muslim Brotherhood. So what the hell is the difference?
I am holding here, ladies and gentlemen, in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers a story that essentially is a translation of a book entitled Jihad is the Way, the book written by Mustafa Mashhur, leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt from 1996 to 2002. The Muslim Brotherhood, in its own words, in a book here. In this book, which entitled Jihad is the Way (Jihad means holy war) the author, Mustafa Mashhur, "explains the fundamental concepts of the Muslim Brotherhood ideology." His teachings "encompass subjects such as the Muslim Brotherhood's goal of establishing an Islamic state, world domination under Islam, the public and personal religious duty of military Jihad, and the warning not to rush to Jihad until it is prepared and timed for maximum benefit."
The national goal of the Muslim Brotherhood is Islamic world domination, according to Mustafa Mashhur, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, 1996-2002. Okay, so there it is. I mean it's there. We've got Mahmoud Ahmadinejad saying we're gonna take Israel out, there was no Holocaust, the 12th imam is gonna pop out of the well here and we're gonna own you. He's saying it. "Ah, he doesn't really mean it, Rush, doesn't really mean it." What are we supposed to believe, then? People who tell us he doesn't really mean it? What's the wisest course here? So here's the Muslim Brotherhood, "Hey, Rush, they've changed now, they're really a democracy. These are not really militant Islamists. You really can't categorize them. This is truly, truly a democracy movement and we as conservatives must all go out and support them." Fine, okay, well, here's their book.
Here's Dianne Feinstein, "We don't understand Islamists can take over Egypt." I don't know who she's a talking about, because I certainly do. All my friends know. A bunch of football coaches I know know. I mean the people I know in a cross-section of the population full well understand a militant Islamist takeover could be brewing there. Who is she speaking for, "we don't understand"? Herself and the regime. So liberals, folks, let me put this in perspective for you. Here in our own country liberals are only 30% of the population and look at the damage they cause every day. "But, Rush, but, Rush, the Muslim Brotherhood, barely 20 to 30% of the protesting group." Yeah, and the other 70% are afraid to stand up to 'em.
Moving on down the line, ladies and gentlemen. This is from USA Today, Richard Wolf, headline: "'White House More Satisfied with Progress in Egypt' -- After voicing a sense of urgency and dissatisfaction during the first week of Egypt's response to democracy protesters, the Obama administration is sounding much more positive these days. From Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Sunday, to President Obama on Monday, to Vice President Biden on Tuesday, the administration says the transition to a new government appears to be on track." Well, goody. And then we go to the AP, Associated Press: "Egypt's protesters were defiant Wednesday after a warning from Vice President Omar Suleiman, that if protesters don't enter negotiations a coup could take place, causing even greater chaos, raising the alarm of crackdown. Organizers of the mass demonstrations, now in their 16th day, sought to widen their uprising. Suleiman, a military man who was intelligence chief before being elevated to VP in the middle of the crisis, has reportedly said that Egypt is not ready for democracy." So one of the prime players here says Egypt isn't ready. He says, "The culture of democracy is still far away." He said that in a meeting last night with newspaper editors. Democracy, ha, don't make me laugh, he said, democracy, the culture of democracy, Egypt's not ready for that.
Meanwhile, in the Washington Post: "Free, Fair Elections Still Distant Prospect for Egypt." Remember, we've got stories today saying the regime's totally happy with the progress, the regime's totally happy with the direction things are taking here. "As Egypt comes under pressure to hold free and fair elections, democracy activists are expressing growing doubts about whether a ballot slated for September is feasible, and fearing that it could set the country's reform movement back even further. While millions of Egyptians have taken to the streets to clamor for freedom and the removal of President Hosni Mubarak --" Are they clamoring for freedom? I know they want to get rid of Mubarak. I haven't heard definitively that they're clamoring for freedom, not in the sense you and I mean freedom. "-- the country's pro-democracy forces have been so battered and marginalized by decades of repression that advocates say it would take many months -- if not years -- to lay the groundwork for open and credible elections." Now, how can this be? Because Obama said last week, (paraphrasing) "We want your transformation now. Your transformation starts now." And Gibbs said, "That means yesterday." Now this week they're saying, "Ah, ah, don't know we can get it done that fast." Now the news coming out of there is, "Hey, democracy, yeah, not ready for it, might take years to even prepare the ballot."
"Many of those urging a speedier exit for Mubarak acknowledge that the country is not prepared for quick elections. ... But there is no guarantee that such a process would go smoothly in a country without democratic institutions. ... The United States has advocated on behalf of Omar Suleiman, Egypt's longtime spy chief, whom Mubarak elevated to vice president last month." Okay, so now we have officially climbed into bed with Suleiman who says, "Ha, we're not ready for democracy." New York Times editorial: "'Mr. Suleiman's Empty Promises' -- We are a long way from knowing how Egypt will turn out. The government is using all of its power -- including a promised 15 percent raise for federal workers -- to try to hang on. The opposition is courageously pushing back, and, on Tuesday, it drew thousands of supporters to Liberation Square. The United States and the European Union may not have been able to wheedle or push President Hosni Mubarak from power. Still, they badly miscalculated when they endorsed Egypt's vice president, Omar Suleiman." Oh, so the Times doesn't like the fact that we got in bed with Suleiman. The Times is part of the State-Controlled Media apparatus.
"President Obama said the right things last week when he demanded that democratic change in Egypt start 'now.' Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's recent statements that change would 'take some time' have taken the pressure off. Mr. Obama needs to regain his voice and press Mr. Suleiman to either begin a serious process of reform or get out of the way." Next, San Francisco Chronicle, AP story: "US Tries to End Conflicting Messages on Egypt. ... After comments by some State Department officials were widely interpreted as diverging from the White House stand, Obama officials sought to dispel any notion that they're either loosening pressure on President Hosni Mubarak or backing off from supporting the protesters flooding Cairo."
This is a story about Wisner. He stunned everybody, go over there to get rid of Mubarak, said, (paraphrasing) "Hey, the guy can't go yet, he's too important." White House officials are frustrated with some of the news reporting on events. The overall concern was the narrative was getting cloudy, and certainly not focused on the events in Egypt. So it's a second story about how the regime has just lost control over every facet of this story. And don't forget Dianne Feinstein, "I don't think we understand. This could be an Islamic takeover. I don't think we understand."
RUSH: I thought Obama, in part, was elected to fix the Middle East. Didn't you? I distinctly remember that's what the Cairo speech was all about. In fact, his strong suit was that the world was going to love us. Because as you know the world hated us because of George W. Bush, because of the pictures from Abu Ghraib from Club Gitmo, from all the torture, all the cowboy stuff. Bush was running around the world pulling the trigger, firing bullets at anybody. "If you're not with us, you're against us," all that kinda talk. Obama was gonna restore our place in the world! Little did we know that meant "cutting America down to size." No, America was gonna be loved once again! America was going to be respected.
The Middle East was going to end terrorism against America because Obama was president. He bragged that his time living in Indonesia as a kid and his father's Muslim roots made him an expert in foreign policy, especially in the Middle East. We got the Cairo speech, and we were told Obama was the architect of "smart power" and pushing the proper "reset buttons." They were gonna have "smart" foreign policy. Obama was sold to us as an expert who knew best how to handle the Middle East (especially compared to that idiot, George W. Bush, and Darth Cheney). It doesn't appear, ladies and gentlemen, that that happens to be in the slightest way accurate. It seems we're in a bigger mess with a more confused message and policy than anyone can remember.
In fact, in the New York Times: "Allies Press America to Go Slow on Egypt." This story is all about how our allies don't like tossing Mubarak overboard, and so we're not going to do it now. Yesterday, last week, Gibbs says, "That transformation, that starts now," and "now" meant "yesterday." No, now we're gonna have an orderly transition out there, as our allies are not keen the idea. So Obama runs out there, makes a speech, takes ownership of that mob, believes what they say that they want to get rid of Mubarak. He goes out and demands the transformation start now and then all hell breaks loose.
"No, no, no! Mr. President, we don't want to get rid of this guy right now. He's too crucial here." One of Obama's own State Department guys goes over there with the charge to get rid of Mubarak, and when he gets over there... You know what? I'll bet you that this Wisner guy is probably one of the last few remaining adults, and what happened was this guy knows full well what's going on over there and probably, as an act of patriotism, went over there and under the guise of getting rid of Mubarak makes a public speech saying, "We can't afford to get rid of him right now." Somebody understanding that we've got a total novice running this show and that some adults gonna have to step in here at whatever cost and put the truth on the table.
RUSH: Montgomery, Alabama, Charles, I'm glad you waited, sir. You're up next on the EIB Network. Hi.
CALLER: Hello, Rush.
RUSH: Hi.
CALLER: There are a couple of other very serious implications in our president right off the bat asking the leader of Egypt to step down.
RUSH: Yeah?
CALLER: One, does this mean he had no advisors in the White House to warn him against this? And if there are, did he not even consider their advice?
RUSH: Well, I'm told now, there have been some people reporting on the Obama inner circle, and I'm told that he has, the vast majority of people -- I'm not making this up, now -- I forget what book or what stories out there, but most of the people that are in his inner circle think he's God. They idolize the guy and they have a superhuman impression of him, and he does not get counter-advice, as you are suggesting. That's why it's interesting, the guy that they sent over there to tell Mubarak, to nudge Mubarak away goes public and says, "We can't afford for Mubarak to go away now."
CALLER: Exactly. Exactly. But imagine you or I being in that position and having no counter-opposing viewpoints to be expressed to us before we make a major decision like that. I wouldn't have it. I would have to have opposing viewpoints. I would have to have both sides of the story. Wouldn't you, if you were the president?
RUSH: See, I have a different take on that, frankly. I've never understood, like, I don't need advisors. On this radio program, things I want to talk about, things I want to say, I don't need a bunch of advisors. I don't need a Middle East advisor to tell me what I ought to say about whatever issue over there. I understand the presidency is a huge job and that no president can singularly know everything, so I understand having a council of experts for input and so forth. The way we construct these things, we make it look like presidents are just sponges and whoever has the ... like, whenever there's a new chief of staff, why, you would think that guy is the president. Bill Daley is the new chief of staff and the Washington establishment goes nuts, "How is this going to change the White House, and how is this going to change Washington?" Well, he's not the president. What do you mean how is it gonna change?
Is the president gonna hire somebody that's more powerful than he is and smarter than he is? Some of this stuff, in the way I live my own life I've never understood. I know what you're saying in this case, and I don't disagree with you because I don't think Obama has the slightest clue what's going on in Egypt. But apparently he doesn't want to hear from people who are gonna tell him that, so he doesn't hear from them. They have to leave the country to go express their viewpoint, which is what this Wisner actually did. I'll bet that you have a certain level of panic somewhat in the White House over things like that, under the guise, circumstances you just put forth.
RUSH: Back to Egypt. It just keeps getting better and better. This afternoon at the White House, Robert Gibbs, daily press briefing, a reporter said, "The Egyptian Foreign Minister is telling PBS that VP Biden's call for immediate lifting of the emergency law in Egypt was, he was amazed by that, and he felt that the Egyptian government could not make such a move until the unrest had been put down and calm had been restored. What's the response on that?"
GIBBS: I think as we said in the readout from Vice President Biden's call to Vice President Suleiman that an orderly transition must begin now, and it must produce without delay immediate and irreversible progress. I think it's obvious that they've yet to meet the threshold that will satisfy most of the people.
RUSH: Okay, as we said on the readout for Vice President's Biden's call to Vice President Suleiman, orderly transition, gotta begin now. I've had stories I've shared with you all day long, the White House is confused, the White House is sending out different stories, "Nah, don't have to do it now, gonna take awhile, might take months, might take weeks." Now here's Gibbs back to saying the vice president says it has to happen now and it has to happen soon and it has to be irreversible, without delay. So then a White House reporter said, "Well, does the White House feel that it has the full understanding of all those participants and what their motives are?"
GIBBS: Again, it's not for us to determine, Dan. we're not going to pick which seven people represent Egypt.
LOTHIAN: I'm not saying picking --
GIBBS: No, you are. As a matter of fact, you are.
LOTHIAN: No, no, what I said is do you think that you have a full understanding of all of these players and what their motives are? I'm not saying whether or not you're supporting them or picking them. Do you think you have a good understanding of them?
GIBBS: And again, this is something for the Egyptians to work out.
RUSH: Okay, so Gibbs is saying to the Egyptians: "You better change. We've called Vice President Suleiman. We want immediate, irreversible progress, we want an orderly transition to begin now." Lothian: "Well, who?" "Why, we're not pickin'. It's up to the Egyptians." So transition to what? What Lothian is doing without saying so, it's obvious he's bouncing off Dianne Feinstein. Dianne Feinstein said, "We don't understand what's going on. We don't understand. It could be a militant Islamist takeover." Well, Lothian didn't say that in his question, but he basically meant, "Hey, Gibbs, do you think you have a good understanding of who these people are over there, could this be a militant Islamist takeover?" Gibbs said, "That's something for the Egyptians to work out. We just want 'em to do it now." "Well, do what?" "Well, that's up to them. We're not telling them what to do, we just want it to happen now." This is not presidential. This is not mature. This is not intelligent. This is not reasonable. This is fly by the seat of your pants. That's what's happening with this.
RUSH: Some people are trying to tell me that the George Mason University professor is trying to mock the requirement. The reason I didn't think the George Mason professor was mocking the mandate requirement was because NPR is all in favor it, all the gold stars on the foreheads saying you don't deserve coverage. But it did conflict me because George Mason does not produce those kinds of wacko economists. So we'll get to the bottom of this. If NPR got scammed, I'll be happy to admit my error in judgment tomorrow.

Vitale to call Final Four games on ESPN International
Dick Vitale is going to get the call the NCAA men's basketball tournament Final Four -- for the rest of the world.
Vitale will be an analyst on ESPN International's coverage of the Final Four, calling a semifinal and the championship game from Atlanta. Brad Nessler will be the play-by-play announcer for all three games, while Jay Bilas will work one semifinal.
Because CBS Sports has had the Final Four since 1982, Vitale has been prevented from calling a Final Four game. Vitale has been with ESPN since 1979.

Help! The Gummies Have Taken Over!Wednesday, April 1st, 2015 by Jonah Half
This communication is being sent from our warehouse basement storeroom, where all employees are being held hostage by rebel Gummi candies. They have overtaken us with Sweet Squirter Guns and tied us up with Licorice Laces, but I've managed to chew through them. The Gummies won't relinquish control until all candies are liberated from our warehouse so they may roam free in the world. For the sake of all the hard working employees at CandyFavorites.com, I implore you to fill your shopping carts with loads of sweet treats before they…

Trolli Santa & Elves Mustaches Gummi Candy
Classroom/movie Munchability: 5 (the fun is in the dress-up play!)
Melt Measure: 0
Novelty: 9
Sharability: 10
Trust me, it is as much a surprise to me as it is to you that the elves of Santa's toy shop have the same type of mustaches that Santa has! I always imagined the elves as baby faced little characters running around childishly as they assembled toys for the undersides of all the Christmas trees of children. (Despite growing up Jewish, I have still had many daydream about Santa and his elves).
Perhaps the elves were not preparing Christmas gifts, and instead were growing and grooming each other's mustaches. Perhaps these little elves look up to Santa and show their respectful admiration by mimicking his mustache, or lip brow, if you will.
With three flavors: Cherry, Cherry & Lime, and Strawberry & Cherry, and three different 'stache styles, this gummi provides adequate variables to balance with the consistency of the texture and chew density. Each gummi provides a substantial bite into the thickness of sweet delight.
Since I love to share, and I had more mustaches than I cared to try on, I offered to some of of these Christmas candies to my friends during a day of rock climbing in Connellsville, PA.
Here are some things that were said about the Mustaches:
|"The flavor is not overpowering, it's not in your face."
|"Tastes just like an elf!"
|"They are enjoyable… they are refreshing. Refreshing, that's definitely a word that should be in there! I was chewing away, tasting some cherry and before I knew it I was wondering, is that lime I'm tasting? It totally was lime. Lime makes it refreshing!"
|"How's the aroma?…I can smell them from here and my nose is stuffed…"
|"You actually enjoyed it?""Yes, and I'd have another one, and another one and another one. It might just be my new favorite candy."
|"I will remember them with pleasure."
Have fun with wearing the Santa & Elves Mustaches. I challenge you to try to wear the mustache, say "Ho! Ho! Ho!" and eat the mustache all without using your hands! You might even get some candy aroma therapy from this game, as the sweet tastes trickle into your brainwaves through your nasal passage. Have fun and get a laugh outa this gummi candy!
Enjoy Gummy Peach Rings in moderation…Friday, July 10th, 2009 by Becca Droz
Sharability: 9
Denture Danger: 8
Convenience: 7
Novelty: 6
Overall: 9
As soon as you open the bag, a burst of the peachy sweetness aroma floats up your nose preparing your senses for the eating of peach ring.
Manufactured by Farley & Sathers, under the brand name Trolli, these ring shaped gummies are fun to put on your fingers to admire your beautiful orange and yellow jewelry before ripping them off with your teeth. If you suck on the peach ring instead of chewing it up the sandpapery sugar melts away so that you can feel the smooth gummy squirm around your mouth.
As good as this candy is, I advise moderation. Though moderation is key with most candies, this one I can tell you from personal experience is one in which you should surely limit your intake.
Eating too many peach rings can make your stomach gurgle and your head pound. It gives you a good excuse to share this one with all of the watering mouths watching you chew up the peachy smelling, sugary, slightly sour gummy.

A parade of drumming Hare Krishnas is a familiar sight in the East Village. Less well known is the tension that has splintered the movement into separate factions. Followers who call themselves the Iskcon Revival Movement broke off from the mainstream movement and founded their own temple on St Marks Place in 1999. "We're not welcome, simply put, in the temples," says Vani Wulfhoop, a founder of the East Village temple. But less than a year later, the the Iskcon Revival Movement lost their lease.
The Local East Village posted a video about Vani and Brahmabuta-Das Wulfhoop and how they converted their apartment into a makeshift temple.

For the second one, you want to know how many combinations of 8 balls you can get from the 15. This is evaluated using
Hello, I want to learn DM by myself, and asked a university prof. (different faculty) to give me a few exercises to solve.
Can You point me to subjects those are from and what should I learn as well as explain how those should be solved (with the solving itself done if possible)?
Use generating functions to find an if :an = an - 1 + 3n, for n >= 1
Find the number of ways to select 8 balls from the set of 5 identical red balls, 3 identical
yellow balls and 7 identical green balls.
Use the extended version of the Euclid's algorithm to compute EXT-EUCLID(24,42)
How many ways are there to distribute 18 balls among 6 different persons if
a) each ball is different and each person should get 3 balls
b) all balls are identical ?
How many permutations of the letters a, a, a, b, b, b, c, c, c, d, d, d, are there with no three
consecutive letters the same?
Show that P(n, k) = P(n - 1; k - 1) + P(n - k; k) for each 1 < k < n.
For the first problem, and without any specialist knowledge of methods, the following approach seems to work.
The first term in the sequence is unknown so call it .
Then, by repeated substitution,
and so on.
It appears then as if we need to find some way of generating the number sequence etc.
A difference table shows that the sequence comes from a quadratic so assume that
substitute for three values of and solve for
(Ans: )
Hello, RoseEsque!
How many ways are there to distribute 18 balls among 6 different persons if
a) each ball is different and each person gets 3 balls?
b) all balls are identical and each person gets 3 balls?
The balls are identical.
Give any three balls to each of the six people.
. . There is one way.
The answer is the coefficient of in this expansion.
The clue is that right above the question is about generating functions.
is right that it's easier witout generating functions in this case, but since the
problem statement says to use generating functions, here is a go at
it. I'm going to assume you know something about infinite series.
The standard approach is to let
Using the recurrence given, we will find a closed form for f(x), and
then use that to find an expression for .
First, we would like to find the generating function for
, i.e., a closed form for
. A standard trick here
is to start with
Differentiate w.r.t. x, then multiply by . The result is
Now we apply the recurrence relation for
. If we interpret this in terms of the generating
functions above, it becomes
(Write out a few terms of the infinite series for f and g if you have
trouble seeing this.)
Solving for f(x),
This is the closed form for f(x) we were looking for. The next step
is to use this to find a closed form for . To do this,
we will apply the binomial theorem for negative exponents (twice) on
the right-hand side of the equation. The result is
It is now possible to "read off" the coefficient of on
the right-hand side of the equation: it is
which is the same result found by BobP.

Ubuntu to Reduce Non-LTS Support
Technical board votes for shorter support cycles on standard releases.
The Ubuntu Technical board has voted to change the support period for non-LTS releases from 18 months to 9. Ubuntu developed the concept of LTS "Long Term Services" releases to extend support for enterprise customers who were more interested in stability and continuity than in chasing the latest new release. An LTS version appears appear every two years and are supported for 5 years. The current LTS version is Ubuntu 12.04. The change affects all releases that aren't LTS releases, which the Ubuntu community now refers to as "standard" releases. Since standard releases appear every 6 months, the 9 month support window provides continuous support until the next standard version appears and gives the user three months to upgrade.
The Ubuntu community has gone through an active discussion for the last few months about possible changes to the release schedule. Ubuntu VP Rick Spencer suggested a rolling release schedule, which would basically eliminate that need for standard release entirely, but founder Mark Shuttleworth was ultimately unwilling to take this extreme step. The compromise developed by the Ubuntu Technical board affirms the importance of standard releases but minimizes redundant maintenance efforts and provides a greater share of resources for maintaining the LTS versions.
The board also offer to devise a way for users or developers to "track the tip of development" without waiting for a full release. This concept is similar to what Spencer originally proposed as a "rolling release." According to the Ubuntu website, "The general idea is that a user could opt for continuous upgrades on what is essentially the development release."
They agreed to implement this change effective with version 13.04 and later. The LTS releases will continue to be supported for the full 5 years. Visit here to read the IRC log of the meeting online.

It's annoying but understandable when web sites impose very specific password quality rules in an attempt to ensure your password is hard to guess. It's both annoying and incomprehensible when web sites impose stupid password quality rules that make it HARDER to create a difficult password!
AirportParkingReservations.com, this means you! The last time this site made me pick a password, it required me to use uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers. So far, so good. But it wouldn't let me use punctuation characters. That's bad! Including punctuation characters in your passwords makes them much harder to guess. Blocking the use of punctuation characters in your own site's passwords has two bad effects: (1) users of your site will be forced to choose passwords that lack punctuation characters and may therefore be easier to guess, and (2) users will be discouraged from using punctuation characters in their passwords in general when they discover that some poorly-designed sites block their use, which may reduce password quality at other sites too.
One reason that AirportParkingReservations.com gets away with this poor policy is that they're not a very interesting target for hackers to attack. If a hacker does manage to break into someone's account, the worst they can do is make a bunch of bogus parking reservations in a person's name and pay with their stored credit card information–bogus charges that will likely be refunded upon request if the user notices them. Only a truly bored hacker would try to be the first to do this. But if your web site holds personal, financial, or other highly confidential information, you should permit stronger passwords.
Remember these basic rules:
- If your web site does any quality checking on passwords at all, it should allow the use of lowercase characters, uppercase characters, numbers, and punctuation characters so users are able to create maximally complex passwords.
- Your site should require some reasonable minimum password length.
- You may mandate the use of various combinations of characters (e.g. at least one lowercase and uppercase alphabetic character and one number). Personally, I'm reluctant to micromanage password complexity rules too much because you may interfere with a perfectly valid user password creation scheme that uses some kinds of characters but not others. Requiring characters from at least three of the four categories of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and punctuation characters would be a good approach that would enforce significant password complexity without forcing users to use all four categories.
- If you can afford to, it's even better to run automatic password-cracking software that will try to detect poor quality passwords so you can warn or force users to change truly stupid passwords such as "password," their user name, their first or last name, and so on.
For an end user faced with the need to generate and remember hard passwords for every site on the planet, LastPass is a good solution. Increased adoption of OpenID by web sites over time will be even more helpful by enabling users to use a single credential to log in more places.
Incidentally, I tried to verify tonight that AirportParkingReservations.com still doesn't allow the use of punctuation characters in passwords, but after logging in, I couldn't even find a way to change my password. Clicking "My Account" didn't do it. Additional points off for poor usability! Ironically, the necessary link to change the password appears to be hidden by a "McAfee SECURE" image that's accidentally been positioned on top of it. This is true on the Mac in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox, so it's not an isolated browser-specific glitch. Additional marks off for bad user interface design and poor quality assurance. No matter what McAfee says, your site isn't very secure if you obstruct your users from picking strong passwords and block users from updating their passwords at will!

Recently many camcorder producers have released their high-end products to attract video editors with high tech in their camcorders. You'd know that professional camcorders series usually use MXF container format to record videos instead of AVCHD format, which is often used in family expenses camcorders.
MXF is a special HD video format which has been put to use in many high-end camcorders such as Cannon XF series and Panasonic P2HD series (including AG-HPX170, AG-HVX200, AG-HPX300, AG-HPX370, AG-HPX500, AJ-HPX2100, AJ-HPX2700, AJ-HPX3000, and AJ-HPX3700, etc.). Files are saved onto the P2 memory card in MXF format allowing direct data transfer to broadcasting and production system.
However, those files in MXF format have proved to be not so well-suited when they are about to be edited in Final Cut Pro. In this article we'd like to give you the solution to editing Panasonic P2 MXF in FCP. You can go through the page to get the detailed instruction.
To edit Panasonic P2 video footage with Final Cut Pro, you have to convert P2 MXF to FCP natively supported video format like Apple ProRes MOV with Apple Intermediate Codec. Here we recommend you the best Mac P2 MXF to MOV Converter which can help you to transcode Panasonic P2 MXF to Apple ProRes .mov format for FCP on Mac OS X quickly and easily.
Step 1: Download and install the best P2 MXF to FCP Converter and launch it to add your P2 MXF videos to it.
1. If you are using FCP X, please make sure you have download and installed ProApps QuickTime Codecs manually, or you may get files with sound only without video.
2. When import MXF videos to the MXF Converter, please make sure you have the entire MXF file structure as it saved on your camcorder's P2 card. If you only have some loose .MXF clips, your files will have image only without audio.
3. If you wanna merge several P2 MXF videos into one file, just tick the "Merge into one" box.
Step 2: Click on the "Format" and get the dropdown menu, then move your pointer to "Final Cut Pro> Apple PreRes 422(HQ)", if you give the priority to the quality of the converted videos.
Tips: You can click the "Settings" icon to customize the video/audio settings for Final Cut Pro: 1920*1080 vide size; 30fps frame rate(for original 60i videos) or 25fps frame rate(for original 50i videos).
Step 3: Click Edit button and you can deinterlace Panasonic 1080i P2 MXF footages for FCP via ticking the "Deinterlacing" box in the Video Editor interface.
Step 4: Click Convert button to start converting Panasonic P2 MXF to FCP friendly Apple ProRes 422 on Mac OS X.
When conversion complete you can click "Open" to find final .mov videos. Then you can directly import the .mov files to FCP for further editing, saving time from rendering the files for more compatible with FCP.
Tip: This top P2 MXF to MOV Converter can also help you to convert P2 MXF to AIC MOV for iMovie and FCE on Mac.

Look & Live
2 Cities Music
Matt Papa released his first project on his independent record label 2 Cities Music on Sept. 17. Papa will launch a fall tour to support the new record, the Look & Live Tour 2013.
This is not your run-of-the-mill four-chord "God is good/magnificent/full of grace" praise and worship record we've come to expect from much of the Christian music industry. This is deep stuff — theatrical in its presentation, lyrically convicting, rich and varied musically. That said, the album opener "For Your Glory" is a four-chord wonder, although even here, varied textures and rhythms lift the song head and shoulders above the norm.
Co-produced with Delirious guitarist Stu G — who almost certainly adds much to the creative beauty of the record, not to mention the occasional searing guitar riff — the record manages to present powerfully the gospel message of hope and redemption while touching on real-world issues like addiction, depression and the tension between worship and idolatry.
If you're looking just to tap your foot and nod your head to rock rhythms, keep looking. But if you'd like more — insightful lyrics, sweeping melodies and intricate rhythms — this may be just what you're looking for. Highly recommended.

Rarely do I see a line of kids clothes and think, "Hmmm, I wonder if this comes in adult sizes." But Oil & Water, a sophisticated new line of rain gear for girls designed by Darien resident Amy Wismar, has me thinking exactly that. Unfortunately for me, Wismar's rain gear with fashion forward styling and a sprinkling of couture detailing are only available to girls size 10. The fashion forward line includes a frilly opera coat, a metallic gold field jacket, a slick tan and red macintosh, and a mod 60's style cape with faux fur lining…puddle jumping just got a whole lot more stylish.
I had a chance to catch up with Amy and learn about how she launched her rainwear line…here's what she said!
Fairfieldista: Did you work in the fashion industry before starting your own company? What did you do?
Amy: No, I didn't! But wow have I learned a lot these past 2 years! Before, I worked in the telecommunications industry doing marketing/marketing communications/events for many years. There is a lot of creativity designing sales campaigns, events and parties … but my 'right-brained' self was craving more.
Fairfieldista: Why did you decide to design rain wear for girls? Why that niche?
Amy: I have always sketched clothes even as a little girl… but once I had quit my marketing job, I was looking for a creative outlet. I decided to sketch and make a muslin mockup of one of the ponchos I had designed. We went on vacation with friends who had at one time owned an outerwear company and he said 'just go have some samples made' So I did! And the story begins there… I decided to make it a rainwear line afterwards, to really make it a niche… I didn't want to compete with every clothing line that made a coat, jacket or cape. That was too much. I wanted a smaller market – fashion rainwear was it. While many designers may make one piece, an entire collection of fashion forward, designer rainwear was unique.
Fairfieldista: I love the designs – they're so fun, yet practical! Tell us about what went into designing the jackets and what's special about them.
Amy: What is special about this line is the detail in each of these coats that you rarely see in rainwear; doublestitching and piped trim, logo'd hardware, fully lined even the inside of the pockets, faux fur lining on some and the list goes on. I labored over every jacket being just right down to the smallest details. Secondly, I sourced fabrics from multiple vendors until I found the vendor that would make the fabric I was envisioning. We created the houndstooth gold print on the white jackets and then coated them with a matte coating. We created the tan weave print until it had the perfect amount of white woven into the tan, and we customized every color of patent. This makes them truly unique. And the handfeel of the fabrics is soft and comfortable to wear. The patents and metallics have an underlying knit tricot fabric that makes them soft and flexible.
Fairfieldista: How did you source the fabrics for the rain wear?
Amy: I went to TexWorld and other shows, as well as used consultants to help me find the fabric resources. Although it would have been easier to have my factory source the fabrics from one provider, I ended up sourcing from various providers and countries to get the highest quality and most luxurious handfeel by fabric type.
Fairfieldista: Where are they produced?
Amy: I initially started working with a factory in NYC Garment District to make my samples and also produce the line. But it was too costly for them to make, as the coated fabrics were breaking the machines. So they moved the cut and sew to a factory they source to in China, but kept the account and account person here in NYC. It would be my dream to be able to someday make them here. Another detail – my patterns, grading and marking were all completed here in NYC to ensure the sizing and patterns were correct before sending them overseas.
Fairfieldista: In addition to purchasing online and at the Darien Sport Shop, where else can Fairfield County moms find your jackets?
Amy: O&W will be available in New York boutiques which I will soon list on my website. A new boutique 'DOT' is opening in Manhattan and another new boutique in Brooklyn 'Numi Numi' that will have Oil & Water for their grand openings. We are also going to be available in stores in New Jersey, New Orleans, LA, Boca Raton, FLA, and hopefully Texas and California soon!
Fairfieldista: Now the most important question 🙂 When are you going to design jackets for women – I am in love with the ponchos – so much cuter than my boring yellow slicker and more fun than a classic trench!
Amy: Thank you – I've been asked that so many times recently which is a great compliment! …and maybe my next venture!

Background: A health care organization often engages in the simultaneous implementation of multiple organization change initiatives. However, the degree to which these initiatives are implemented and can be enhanced based on their interdependencies is an open question. How organizations and the change initiatives they pursue might benefit from more careful examination of potential interdependencies among projects was explored in this article.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to introduce a multiproject management conceptualization that stresses project interdependencies and suggests synergies can be found to enhance overall project and organizational performance. It examines this conceptualization in the context of a health system pursuing several major initiatives to capture insights into the nature of such interdependencies.
Methodology/Approach: Longitudinal qualitative analysis of interviews conducted with hospital leaders attempting to manage multiple initiatives being implemented by the system's leadership team was used in this study.
Findings: The implementation of an electronic medical record (EMR) is empirically identified as the most central among multiple projects based on other projects dependencies on the EMR. Furthermore, concerns for data are identified most frequently as success factors across all projects. This reinforces the depiction of the EMR as a central organizational focus.
Practical Implications: A unique perspective on multiproject management in hospitals and on EMR projects is presented. In addition, the interdependency conceptualization and its application and results provide insights into multiproject management that can help ensure that benefits of individual projects are more fully optimized or exploited in leveraging the effectiveness of other project initiatives.
