BEIJING (AP) The United States and Argentina viewed a 2-2 tie in their Olympic women's field hockey opener through much different lenses.
The 11th-ranked Americans got a goal from Angie Loy in the 64th minute to even the score after falling behind 2-0 early, and they left Olympic Green Hockey Stadium feeling good about themselves.
"To play the world No. 2 in the first game of the Olympics and come away with a 2-all tie, we are to a degree satisfied," U.S. coach Lee Bodimeade said.
Argentina wasn't so positive after scoring on just one of 12 penalty corners in a driving rainstorm.
"I am not so happy with the result, because first, we were winning five minutes before finishing the game," Argentine captain Magdalena Aicega said. "When we saw the number of shot corners we had and the number of penetrations we had ... we had more than the U.S.A."
Aicega said there's no time to worry about the result. Argentina will play Great Britain when pool play resumes Tuesday.
"The team have to look forward because it's the first game, and we had a point," she said.
The U.S. will play Japan on Tuesday.
Argentina's Carla Rebecchi scored two goals in the first 12 minutes, and her team threatened to score several more times before the U.S. replied. Keli Smith scored after a penalty corner to cut Argentina's lead to 2-1 18 minutes into the game. The Americans continued to control play for the remainder of the first half, but they missed on their next two penalty corners, and Argentina maintained its lead.
U.S. captain Kate Barber said her team remained calm after falling behind.
"We were a little bit on the back foot to start, and Argentina made us pay for that," she said. "Our team is known to persist throughout the game, regardless of the situation or the time or phase of the game."
The U.S. had a chance to win, but couldn't convert after getting a penalty corner in the final minute. That opportunity, and the many stops the Americans made on Argentina's penalty corners made Bodimeade think the Americans could have won.
"I'll take the point," he said. "We have some work to do."
In other action Sunday, host China dominated Spain 3-0 in its opener. China's Fu Baorong scored the first goal of the match in the 17th minute, then Li Hongxia followed with a goal in the 31st minute. Lihua Gao scored the only second-half goal.
Japan defeated New Zealand 2-1 in the first game Sunday. Sakae Morimoto scored the first goal in the 12th minute, then Toshie Tsukui scored five minutes later to make it 2-0. New Zealand's Jaimee Claxton scored in the 25th minute to end the scoring.
Australia recovered from a 4-1 deficit to beat South Korea 5-4. Casey Eastham scored the game-winner in the 65th minute.
In the late games, top-ranked Netherlands defeated South Africa 6-0 and defending Olympic champion Germany defeated Great Britain 5-1.

PREP GYMNASTICS: Eagles get by Waseca
NEW ULM – Michaela Otterstatter was undoubtedly firing on all cylinders during New Ulm's South Central Conference gymnastics meet against Waseca on Thursday.
The same can be said about the rest of her teammates, too.
Otterstatter earned a pair of personal bests on the night to place first in the all-around, pacing the Eagles as they combined for a season-best score to defeat the Bluejays 137.075-132.1.
"It's the highest score of the season, and probably the highest score in the last few years, so it's amazing," New Ulm head coach Ariel McFarland said. "They were very on, it was wonderful, it was nice to see."
Otterstatter took first place on the vault (9.125), beam (9.3) and floor (8.775) in the meet while placing third on the bars (8.1). She broke her previous personal bests on both the vault and the beam.
Otterstatter's near-flawless beam routine earned the highest score of the meet in any of the events.
"My beam score has been pretty consistent, but it was really nice to beat my old record from before," Otterstatter said. "It's really encouraging to get the higher score, and it's encouragement to keep working on getting my jumps higher."
Despite her personal success, Otterstatter was just as excited to help the Eagles put together such a high team score.
"It's really exciting, because I don't just compete for myself, it's for the team," Otterstatter said. "I want to do well for the team, and we all work together to get this score, so when it finally comes together, it's really encouraging."
New Ulm senior Kim Berg gave the Eagles a sweep of first-place finishes by winning on the bars with a score of 8.45. Berg impressed with her ability to halt her momentum at the top of her arc and with a backward flip on her dismount.
Emily Gulden had second-place finishes for New Ulm on the bars (8.175) and the floor (8.7) and Allison Rosenhamer placed second for the Eagles on the vault (9.1).
New Ulm seventh grader Kirsten Spaude earned third-places finishes with her vault (9.05) and beam (8.7) routines.
Otterstatter's all-around score of 35.3 was followed by impressive performances by Waseca's Madeline Swain (33.55) and Caleigh Dennis (33.35).
Swain finished second on the beam (8.875) and placed third with her floor routine (8.875).
"This is a meet where we came into it knowing we had to be on to be able to win this one, because Waseca is great competition for us," McFarland said.
New Ulm got off to a good start in the meet with a strong performance on the vault. The team's lowest score on the vault was 8.875, giving the Eagles all five podium positions in the event.
After ninth grader Michaela Howk and Spaude led off the Eagles' turn at the beam by sticking their routines, McFarland sensed that things would turn out very well for her team.
"It's always really nice for beam to start off with two sticks," McFarland said. "It's a really good start, especially coming from the young girls. It's nice to be able to rely on the young team."
In the JV competition, the Eagles defeated the Bluejays 118.25-109.15.
Bergan Forst won the all-around on the JV side with a score of 29.95. Forst also placed first on the bars (8.0) and was second on the vault (8.6).
Gulden won the JV vault event with an 8.85, Howk won on the floor with an 8.2 and New Ulm's Kate Klimek tied for first with Waseca's Michaela Groll on the beam with a 7.2.
With the victory, the Eagles now have a 3-0 record against conference competition, putting them in great position to challenge for the conference title.
"We definitely have potential to take the traveling trophy and be holding the conference title," McFarland said. "We haven't had that since 2008, so I think it's a big deal for these girls to be able to take Waseca and run with that one."
New Ulm's strong results over its recent meets have vaulted the team into the state rankings, with the Eagles holding the No. 13 rank in Class A in the most recent poll.
"It's a good confidence builder for them, because I think that they second-guess themselves sometimes," McFarland said. "After we got past our 133, 134s, [our score] has just been shooting up, and they're confident about what they're doing. They're starting to show off their routines and listening to what I tell them to do, and it's paying off."
New Ulm will compete at the Glencoe-Silver Lake Invitational on Saturday before facing a tough test Jan. 25 on the road against SCC foe Martin County West.
"They make me very proud, and they're doing really, really well," McFarland said of her gymnasts. "A 137 is huge, it's definitely something to be proud of."

What's needed is an open and transparent road map to achieve emissions reductions step by step."emissions, 16.7 percent from coal combustion, 16 percent from building and road construction dust and particles, 6.3 percent from industrial emissions, 4.5 from the burning of corn and wheat stocks and other activities in nearby rural areas. And 24.5 percent of Beijing smog comes from surrounding urban and industrial areas, including Tianjin and Hebei. That's what the vice mayor says, anyway.
People began to feel that their quality of life was impacted, and they worried about the health of their children."plants do have stricter emissions standards, but meanwhile the number of cars is still rising quickly in Beijing and other cities. Beijing's current plan does call for phasing out coal combustion within the Fifth Ring Road [an expressway encircling the city] and also retiring older, more polluting cars soon. But the surrounding areas outside of Beijing still have considerably less stringent standards on coal and car emissions, so this is a challenge.
Even with an ambitious plan, Beijing will probably not be able to meet air-quality standards for 18 or 20 years."could not ignore the problem.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (83 votes).
In short: Great fun if you like mud, rain and alot of wind to contend with!In full: Lovely local scenic off road run. Plenty of challenges in trying to keep upright during the first half of the course! Marshalls were great especially having to stand around on a very wet and windy day! Would luck to come back next year. Date of review: November 29, 2015
Date of review: November 25, 2014
In short: A good 8 miler for those who are comfortable with the distance and want a more challenging terrain.In full: Plenty of mud and even a freshly ploughed field thrown in for good measure! A fitting tribute to the Somme in this centenary year.. However, some easy going stretches too, esp the last mile which is solid track, and a nice downhill slope, making the previous 7 mile of slipping and sliding a distant memory.. Good marshalling; more than last year, which was appreciated.I missed not having the squash at the water station, which they had last year, but other than that, one happy, muddy runner :)Thanks to MRC for a great race!Date of review: November 16, 2014
In short: Thanks to all runners!In full: From all of us at Marlborough Running Club, a big thank you to everyone who took part in today's Avebury 8. It was great to see many smiling faces and to hear that you enjoyed it.We hope to be back next year and look forward to seeing you again.Happy running!Date of review: November 16, 2014
In short: To all runners on the Avebury 8In full: Marlborough Running Club recognises that there were a few runners who took a wrong turn on the course which resulted in them doing an additional 1.5 miles. We apologise for this and appreciate that this may have spoilt the enjoyment of the event for them. We will assess carefully the marshaling and signage points for future events to improve on what is a very enjoyable event for the majority.Rene V Simon BRace Director MRC Chairman Date of review: November 19, 2013
In short: Scenic run with enough to challengeIn full: Nowhere I'd have rather have been on a Sunday morning! For me, this was a well organised, challenging race and there was a commemorative mug for all finishers. I understand that a small number of runners took a wrong turn, which was extremely unfortunate but shouldn't put you off entering next year. This is a really fun race! Date of review: November 17, 2013
In short: wonderfulIn full: excellent organisation, friendly, great atmosphere. Looking forward to 2014Date of review: November 17, 2013
In short: Let down by lack of marshalls and/or signage at key turning points.In full: After today, it should be called the Avebury 9.5 miles due to poor signage. 8 of the top 10 runners ended up running 1.5 miles further then anybody else. Very disappointing.Date of review: November 17, 2013
In short: Great fun, muddyDate of review: August 14, 2013
In short: quite challengingIn full: Nicely organised race, lovely marshalls, bit of a clubby feel, but that wasnt intentional its just that a lot of the local clubs ran it! felt like you were all in it together. Nice to get a keepsake mug instead of the usual medal or t-shirt (my husband is jealous!). Pretty hard work, given the mud, lots of slippy rutted tracks, and muddy fields, and hards slogs along country lanes. but think i got away lightly as apparantly it has been a lot worse in previous years! not sure if i would do again, but only because its a 2 hour drive from where i live!Date of review: November 19, 2012

Curly's Diary
URGENT! Furever homes needed for these kitties NOW!July 13th 2011 10:54 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
Hello furriends! I haven't posted anything in my diary for a long time, but this is very urgent, so my fursibs and I are all cross-posting this in our diaries. Minda, Paula, and Merry are three wonderful kitties whose owner is dying of a brain tumor. The owner, Kathy, just went into hospice care and will not be returning home. Her house is going into foreclosure, so even though Kathy's wonderful neighbors (Catster pawrents of Albie and Mr. Silk) have been going across the street 2 or 3 times a day to check on the cats, this cannot continue much longer. These kitties have been declawed and must live indoors. PLEASE go to Minda, Paula, and Merry's page at the link below, read their story, and help if you can to save these lovely girls from going to a shelter. They can be adopted individually or together. They are located in West Virginia but transport to an approved home within several hundred miles could be arranged. Even if you can't adopt any of these girls, please share the link. Thank you so much!

Everytime I go to my tea shop or look at online stores I see matcha/powdered tea and the regalia that goes with it and I get curious.
What does this tea taste like? Is it hard to make? What kinds are good to buy? If anyone has had experience with this I'd be curious to learn more. Thanks in advance!

Theatre: "Lysistrata"
Adapted and directed by Ethan Sinnott, this classic 411 BC comedy by the wily Aristophanes spotlights the women of ancient Greece who have become annoyed with an endless, pointless, and ridiculous war being fought by their husbands and lovers. Drastic times require drastic measures. They decide to barricade themselves in the Athenian treasury and renounce sex until their men finally cease hostilities and make peace. Short version: NO MORE SEX UNTIL NO MORE WAR. It's a ballsy, cheeky idea converted by our heroine into a plan she engineers to perfection. As a result, the play has many happy endings. The pithy moral of this tale: love is indeed a battlefield.

About the Author: Ambassador Carmen Lomellinserves as the Permanent U.S. Representative to the Organization of American States.
Last Friday, I visited my home town of Chicago to speak at the United States National Hispanic Leadership Institute (USHLIL) national conference. Addressing the gathering -- composed of high school and college students from across the country, elected officials, and representatives from national organizations -- I highlighted the importance of public service and efforts to bolster recruitment of Hispanics for careers in government.
The nature of public service has evolved since President John F. Kennedy's historic challenge of "ask not what our country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Today, that vision endures and is carried forward through the work and contributions of individuals and grassroots organizations in support of important issues and causes as demonstrated by the collective response to the January 12, 2010 tragic earthquake in Haiti.
I conveyed to the audience the commitment of the U.S. to robust multilateral engagement at the Organization of American States, noting how today a common agenda -- rooted in the principles of representative democracy, respect for human rights, and the recognition that all states are equal partners -- has formed a shared regional vision for advancing the progress and development of the countries of the Americas.
The nations of the Western Hemisphere, including the United States, understand well that we are bound together by geography, history and, often, family, and that we are inevitably destined to grow closer together. Values also bind us. Today, these common interests and values converge on democracy, economic growth through free trade, and good governance, as agreed upon by our leaders at the Summits of the Americas -- most recently in Trinidad and Tobago last year.spaceWe may have our differences on how to reach these common goals or on how to deepen our shared values, but there is no dispute on what our goals and values should be.
During my participation at the USHLI conference I also highlighted the importance of a good education and encouraged the participants to consider careers in public service. We need creative and diverse thinkers to help us forge and strengthen our ever-changing global partnerships, and the young people at the conference can be part of this effort.
Our diplomatic corps needs to reflect the diversity of our population and our cultural diversity. It was gratifying to see so many young people participating at this conference, and I hope I left them with some food for thought about how they can play a role in representing America to the rest of the world with the U.S. Department of State.
Mike in Brazil writes:
My understanding is that many minority candidates face difficulties in passing the written FS exam; how does State plan to address this aside from assigning diplomats in residence to more diverse university communities? I have noticed this is also a problem across the Hemisphere, particularly with Brazil's corps not being representative of its population.
Kristina R. in Florida writes:
Very glad to see this reflection of Ambassador Lomellin on this topic. As a college student and Thomas R. Pickering Fellow, I am a strong supporter of diversity within the diplomatic corps and in fact throughout our government. While I am somewhat disappointed on the efforts some fellowship groups dedicated to recruiting for diversity in public service, I am happy to see someone from higher in the diplomatic corps notice these "diverse" absences and thus support initiatives to make a more inclusive system within the foreign service so our population can properly be reflected.
Thank you!
Kristina R.

The drug name is Contrave. Using two separate drugs to shed weight can be very effective you can find combinations before the FDA now awaiting approval. When dealing with fat loss and the people that go through it you ought to err to the side of caution and let the FDA do its job and demand some study be done in order that the public understands the side effects and dangers of the medications before we bring them. Keep in mind that drug companies will be in business to generate income and that they would say almost anything to keep people on his or her medications. Researchers found out that participants taking this drug for the year, dropped excess weight within one month and have kept the weight off through the entire 56 weeks from the study. Contrave can be a combination from the drugs naltrexone and bupropion, which seems to reflect a whole new trend of weight-loss drugs that are made up of several active ingredient, which may make them more efficient and safer. Combo-pilling may be the newest fad or also the newest in the future under scrutiny and so it is just more publicly known in recent months, comb-pilling for weight loss has been around since the eighties. The biggest reason that employing a combination of pills is starting to become popular will be the fact that since right now there aren't long term prescription weight loss supplements that have been authorized by the FDA besides orlistat. The truly disturbing part is that doctors are prescribing these combinations of medications even though some of the combinations happen to be rejected or have yet to be authorized by the FDA. Seizures certainly are a side effect with Contrave and mustn't be taken in individuals with seizure disorders. The drug may also raise blood pressure and heartrate, and really should not be used in individuals with a history of cardiac arrest or stroke in the previous six months. Blood pressure and pulse should also be measured before commencing the drug and throughout therapy using the drug. The FDA also warned that Contrave can raise hypertension and heart rate and must not be used in patients with uncontrolled high blood pressure levels, in addition to by you are not heart-related and cerebrovascular (circulation system dysfunction impacting mental performance) disease. Patients using a history of cardiac arrest or stroke in the previous six months, life-threatening arrhythmias, or congestive heart failure were excluded through the clinical trials. Those taking Contrave should have their heart-rate and pulse monitored regularly. In addition, considering that the compound includes bupropion, Contrave comes having a boxed warning to alert health care professionals and patients to the increased probability of suicidal thoughts and behaviors related to antidepressant drugs. The warning also notes that serious neuropsychiatric events are actually reported in patients taking bupropion for quitting smoking. The course of recovery, even for those using the medications, centers more about talk and much less on pills because while drugs like acamprosate and naltrexone help change brain chemistry, they just don't change minds. Once you adopt away the alcohol, sometimes using the successful usage of prescribed medicine, the minds still need work. Alcoholics who slip in recovery and non-alcoholics drink for fundamentally the same reason: It relieves social/physical/emotional tension. With alcoholics however, their own health are programmed differently genetically and react to drinking with more drinking. So counseling or even a 12-step meeting helps those abstinent keep from using the first drink. Recovery has very little to do with stopping the drinking and the ones successful in recovery admit they're success is founded on learning or relearning the way to manage life's tensions.

There are a few Memcached load generators out there that by definition are now load generators for Membase as well. Everyone has their preference, and no one tool is right for all environments or skillsets. We at Couchbase, Inc. use a variety of tools for testing various functions of the server. Some of our favorites are:
- Brutis - A flexible PHP script that is easy to get and use, and can help simulate an entire stack. This gives you results and metrics that will be similar to what your application (assuming it's PHP) will be experiencing.
- Memcachetest - memcachetest can be configured to exercise a Membase server in many different ways. It is currently the only tool that supports the native Membase protocol (vbucket-aware).
- Memslap - Provided as part of the open-source memcached project, this has been a long-standing testing tool
- mc-loader - Another tool written for bulk-loading of data
Using Brutis
Get it: http://code.google.com/p/brutis/
Install it: As a PHP script, the installation for brutis is very simple:
[user@Membase1 ~]$ tar xzvf brutis-v0_93.tgz brutis-v0_93/ brutis-v0_93/readme brutis-v0_93/brutis brutis-v0_93/license brutis-v0_93/lib/ brutis-v0_93/lib/collector brutis-v0_93/lib/functions.php brutis-v0_93/lib/task_manager.php brutis-v0_93/lib/client [user@Membase1 ~]$
You'll also need to install PHP and its memcached library. The simplest way to do this is using yum or aptitude:
yum install php-pecl-memcached
apt-get install php-pecl-memcached
Run it: Brutis has a variety of options that can be used to tune the type of traffic that it generates. The simplest way is to let it use all its defaults:
[user@Membase1 ~]$ cd brutis-v0_93 [user@Membase1 brutis-v0_93]$ ./brutis -x localhost:11211 -v Starting Collector Brutis 1 Connections Type Ops/sec Hits/sec Misses/sec Fails/sec Latency MB/sec ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sets: 129.63 --- --- 0.00 0.000731 0.03 Gets: 1,294.15 0.43 1,293.72 0.00 0.000532 0.00 Totals: 1,423.78 0.43 1,293.72 0.00 0.000632 0.03 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SETS GETS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Host Ops/sec Latency MB/sec Ops/sec Latency MB/sec ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Membase1 129.63 0.000731 0.03 1,294.15 0.000532 0.00 <ctrl-c> Total Operations: 30958 Total Dataset Size: 720640 Total Sets: 2815 Total Gets: 28143 Total Hits: 46 Total Misses: 28097 Total Set Fails: 0 Total MD5 Fails: 0 Total Keys: 2815 Total Transferred: 732416 [user@Membase1 brutis-v0_93]$
Using Memcachetest
Get it from https://github.com/membase/memcachetest
Using Memslap
The memslap tool is part of the libmemcached package at: libmemcached.org

Cleaning Up Bozo Explosion at Yahoo!
Kara Swisher of All Things D broke the news with a leaked memo: Yahoo! will stop allowing employees to
In the memo from Swisher's story, notice this line: If this
I know of at least one employee who has petitioned direct management. This employee expects to hear back from Mayer in 30-60 days to see if the CEO approves a request to continue to work at home. This employee is a productive Yahoo! veteran. In some cases, Mayer might have no other choice but to grant exceptions.
Swisher followed up her scoop by
Marissa Mayer sucks. Or she's merely looking to create a culture of collaboration that (A) lacks at Yahoo! and (B) will spur the type of innovation we see from Google
Of course, general sentiment slants in the "Mayer sucks" direction.
Even the famous urbanist, author of The Creative Class and University of Toronto professor Richard Florida, thinks Mayer made a bad move:
As much as I love Florida and respect his work, he misses the point as well. Or at least he speculates past what might be the lead.
Florida claims the "good
If you're a Steve Jobs fan, you realize what's happening here. Mayer is cleaning up something Jobs always feared at Apple
Over the years at Yahoo!, incompetent people hired more incompetent people who went on to hire even more incompetent people. These B-players maintained the status quo, while implementing all of the perks Silicon Valley and other tech staffers have come to expect and enjoy. At Yahoo!, working at home became expected, not a convenient consequence of competence.
Mayer is simply making another move -- in a long series of moves -- to clean up the mess. Firing people is a pain in the ass. And layoffs look bad.
Do you really think Mayer did not, in some way, communicate with the A-players (or at least their direct managers) ahead of making this move? She's using this "edict" to further streamline a bloated, self-entitled and largely ineffective segment of the workforce. That much should be obvious. And, based on what I mentioned earlier in this article, there very well could be exceptions. It will be interesting to see how Mayer handles these things case-by-case.

It's time for something a little various.
If your heart is set on a destination wedding event, speak with a travel agent to see if you can get a deal for everyone who is attending at a group rate. They are most likely to have prepared numerous wedding journeys before yours, and will understand exactly ways to get the very best deals possible.
On the early morning of your wedding event, you will have to provide yourself extra time to get dressed since you will desire everything to look best. Plan to begin getting ready a minimum of an hour before you normally would to prevent rushing to obtain to your wedding. This will allow you to look your finest.
Send your wedding event visitors off with a sweet treat to thank them for their support by handing out small takeout containers of warm cookies coupled with small glass bottles of natural vanilla, chocolate, or soy milk. You can utilize twine and little stamped or embossed name tags with the couple's name and wedding date.
If the couple wants to get a shot of everybody at their wedding, attempt to get a shot from up high at the beginning of the ceremony when it's likely nobody will have left yet. If you're fortunate adequate to have a church with a balcony, start from there. Check out the church before the event to select the very best spot to obtain your shot.
Provide the youngsters who attend your wedding some duty to keep them occupied. If they have to secure the ring with their life, or count the number of people been available in the doors, they'll have something to do and it must keep the monotony at bay. They might need to have various tasks to keep occupied, though, as they might become tiresome.
Consider hiring a DJ for your wedding event reception rather than a live band. With a DJ, you can choose exactly what songs will be played and you understand exactly how they will sound. Live bands are a little bit more difficult because you have no control over how the tunes will sound.
As was specified in the start of the article, a wedding event can be a very difficult thing to handle, even though it is supposed to be the most essential day for you. Use the recommendations given up this article to have your wedding day flow smoothly. This will allow you to enjoy it, much like you should!

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton traveled to Perth, Australia, to participate in the annual Australia-U.S. Ministerial Consultations to discuss our alliance cooperation on matters including security, development, and trade. Upon arrivial on November 13, Secretary Clinton met with Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard, Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr, Australian Defense Minister Stephen Smith, and Premier of Western Australia Colin Barnett.
Following these talks, Secretary Clinton met with Perth Lord Mayor Lisa Scaffidi, who presented her with a Key to the City of Perth. The Secretary then delivered remarks at the launch of the Perth USAsia Centre, which focuses on Australia-Asia-U.S. strategic and economic concerns. Secretary Clinton spoke of the enduring relationship between the United States and Australia and the importance of our roles in the Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions.
On November 14, Secretary Clinton joined U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, Australian Foreign Minister Robert Carr, and Australian Defense Minister Stephen Smith for a wreath-laying ceremony at the State War Memorial at Kings Park before beginning the annual Australia-United States Ministerial Consultations (AUSMIN). After the AUSMIN discussions, Secretaries Clinton and Panetta with their Australian counterparts held a joint press conference and released an AUSMIN 2012 Joint Communique.
In her remarks, Secretary Clinton said, "Our alliance is an anchor of peace and prosperity in the Asia Pacific and around the world, forged in war but flourishing in peace." She continued, "From the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Islands, American and Australian navies protect the sea lanes through which much of the world's trade passes, and increasingly our cyber security experts collaborate to keep our networks safe and online commerce flowing freely. Our diplomats work side by side at regional organizations to address shared security challenges and hammer out new economic agreements, and we congratulate Australia upon becoming a new nonpermanent member of the Security Council. Our growing trade across the region, including our work together to finalize the Trans-Pacific Partnership, binds our countries together, increases stability, and promotes security."
From Perth, Secretary Clinton traveled to Adelaide, where she met with Australian business leaders, including Australian Minister for Resources and Energy Martin Ferguson, on November 15. The Secretary also visited Techport Australia, Australia's largest and most advanced shipbuilding facility. Secretary Clinton said, "[T]his economic relationship is just as vital to both of our nations' continued strength as our defense partnership, because in today's world, power is increasingly measured and exercised in economic terms. So it is critical that Australia and the United States keep seeking every opportunity to increase trade and investment between us, to build economic partnerships, to share innovation and technological advances so we can continue not only to lead in the global economy, but more importantly to provide a rising standard of living to the hardworking people in both our countries."

Intel Corp. on Wednesday formally introduced a new dual-core Atom processor for netbooks. The chip got a clock-speed boost, but at the cost of Hyper-Threading technology that is not activated on the new chip.
Intel dual-core Atom processor N570 operates at 1.66GHz (up from 1.50GHz of the predecessor), sports integrated single-channel DDR3 controller, integrated graphics controller and has 1MB of cache. The chip does not support Hyper-Threading technology and thus can process only two threads of code at once (unlike the predecessor, which sported HT and could process four threads). The novelty has 8.5W thermal design power, which is in line with its predecessor, but higher compared to single-core Atom chips.
Intel Atom dual-core chip
The Atom N570 is Intel's second dual-core Atom chip designed for netbooks. The first dual-core product for this segment was introduced back in mid-2010 and was adopted by a number of netbook makers.
While dual-core design naturally helps the novelty to offer better performance when using several applications at once, those, who hope to get notebook-like performance from dual-core Atom will not see their dreams fulfilled as general performance of such chips is still pretty low and is suitable only for simplistic applications.
Systems based on the dual-core Intel Atom processor N570 are on display this week at CeBIT from ASUS, Lenovo and Samsung, and will begin shipping in March.

Forty Weeks of Fitness | With Chelsea
Pilates during Pregnancy
Pilates, invented by the late Joseph Pilates, is a great form of exercise to strengthen your pelvic muscles, increase shoulder stability, maintain correct posture, and improve balance during your pregnancy. Pilates movements are mostly performed in a prone (referred to as a plank), supine (lying on your back) or side-lying position. Pilates exercises offer you the opportunity to focus on "growing your spine" and correct postural misalignments.
The prone and supine positions lend themselves to strengthening the abdominals, lower back, legs and arms. As your pregnancy progresses, especially beyond the 20th week, you shouldn't lie flat on your back and may find it difficult to hold your body in a strong plank position due to the additional weight you are carrying. Many doctors prefer that you choose side-lying positions beyond this point while others will ask that you simply pay attention to your body and not to lie on your back if it causes any discomfort, difficulty breathing or numbness in your legs. Choose to work one-on-one with a certified Pilates instructor, join a class or purchase a DVD for home use. Pilates will also reinforce controlled deep breathing and Kegel exercises that aid in the birthing process and recovery.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (480 votes).
In short: Better than last time!In full: Good weather both times I've taken part.A much bigger field than 2002, the 1st time I entered & I think this helped. It wasn't so lonely. Hope it doesn't get too big, may ruin it!!Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: Couldn't have made a better choice for my 1st marathonIn full: Great scenery, weather, local support and testing undulations.Will definitely be back for next year! Everyone was so friendly too.Oh...and a PB (well it was my first marathon)Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: painfull but fulfillingDate of review: October 7, 2004
In short: Fantastic day, great organisation, great all round.Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: Top day, great organisation, and what scenery!Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: I've run this twice and really love it.Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: a definite PB course... if it's your 1st marathon.In full: a beautiful day for my 1st big 'un. ignoring all forecasts the sun shone on an undulating course. we ran downhill for a bit, flat for a bit, up a big hill for a big bit, dowhill for a bit, then home, glorious home. great support from the villagers en route, well spaced water/juice stops, great chat, and a tasty goody bag (espesh if you like beetroot pieces).Date of review: October 7, 2004
In short: although this was my first marathon it was without a doubt the most enjoyable run i have ever had. Date of review: October 6, 2004
In short: Scenic, challanging & rewarding - I got a PB, but it was 1st marathonDate of review: October 6, 2004
In short: Don't believe the profile - there's only 5 miles of flat and that's at the end!In full: The profile says the first two miles is downhill. Well lets just say the whole course is a leg sappin undulation. The first 1/2 is indeed maily downhill but some downhills are pretty tough and you can feel this when the uphills come along between 17 and 19 miles. After that its pretty flat. The start is breath taking (but it was sunny) and just made you want to run. Drinks stations were enthusiastically manned and there was sporadic support all the way around with welcome cheers in local villages. I really struggled at the end, probably due to an overly keen start and lack of prep (especially downhills). Can't really fault this event, enough competitors to give it a real buzz of a big event but not too many to become overcrowded. As for a first time event, then yes but don't expect to be surrounded by lots of support or fellow runners. I was on my own for a great deal of time. It's a tough course maily along a tree lined road. Not as many views as you'd have thought but when they come they really lift the spirts. This ws my second marathon after Edinburgh 2003. I found it much tougher but the course was far, far better. I'm sure it'll be a while before I find a race that tops this!Date of review: October 6, 2004

Fr. Anthony Ciorra, PhD
Fr. Anthony Ciorra, PhD, will speak on St. Francis of Assisi and the Second Vatican Council as part of the University's 48th Charter Day celebration at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, March 13, in the Meagher Theatre. The Leunissen Lecture, delivered every year on the anniversary of Neumann's founding, is free and open to the public.
Charter Day events will begin at 11:30 a.m. on the same day with liturgy in Our Lady of Angels Chapel.
The Second Vatican Council was called by Pope John XXIII and lasted from 1962-65. Its purpose was spiritual renewal of the church in the modern world. The council produced decrees on the pastoral duties of bishops, ecumenism, the Eastern-rite churches, the ministry and life of priests, the missionary activity of the church, the apostolate of the laity, and other topics.
Fr. Ciorra was ordained a priest in 1973. His experience has included parish life, teaching, administration, retreat work, preaching, and formation ministries. He has graduate degrees in psychology, history and pastoral theology, and a certificate in spiritual direction. He holds a PhD in theology from Fordham University.
He is currently assistant vice president for mission and Catholic identity and professor of theology at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut. Fr. Ciorra gives workshops and retreats throughout the United States, the Middle East and Europe, and he is actively involved in creating programs for inter-religious dialogue among Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
Neumann's annual Leunissen Lecture is named after Dorothy A. Piatnek-Leunissen, Ph.D., M.D. A longtime area physician, she launched private practice in 1976 with her husband, R.L. Abraham Leunissen, M.D., at Riddle Memorial Hospital in Media. She was a lifelong friend of the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia and supporter of Neumann University.
The Dorothy A.P. Leunissen Presidential Lecture Series was established in 2004 to bring speakers to the University's campus to address current topics of interest in Catholic Franciscan higher education.

On March 25, 1911, 146 garment workers, mostly Jewish and Italian immigrant girls in their teens and 20s, perished after a fire broke out at the Triangle Waist Co. factory in New York City's Greenwich Village. Even after the fire, the city's businesses continued to insist they could regulate themselves, but the deaths clearly demonstrated that companies like Triangle would not, on their own, concern themselves with their workers' safety. Despite this business opposition, the public's response to the fire led to landmark state regulations.
The fire was a milestone in Jewish, labor and women's history, and Americans are now observing the tragedy's 100th anniversary. Last month, PBS broadcast a new documentary about the fire, and HBO will air its own version next week. In Los Angeles and elsewhere, academics, unions and Jewish organizations have organized conferences, plays and memorial ceremonies. Publishers have recently issued several histories, a novel and a volume of poetry about Triangle.
The themes are similar: We should remember those who perished and know that their deaths were not in vain. The tragedy was the catalyst for a century of reforms that made our jobs safer and families more secure.
But the fire also offers valuable lessons that resonate with contemporary political battles. Businesses today, and their allies in Congress and the state houses, are making the same arguments against government regulation that New York's business leaders made a century ago. The current hue and cry about "burdensome government regulations" and unions that stifle job growth shows that the Triangle fire's lessons may have been forgotten. Here is what happened.
One hundred years ago, New York was a city of enormous wealth and wide disparities between rich and poor. New industries, including the clothing industry, were booming. The new age had created a demand for off-the-rack, mass-produced clothing sold in department stores. The Triangle company made blouses, called shirtwaists.
Few consumers who bought the ready-to-wear clothing gave much thought to the people who made it. The garments were sewn in miserable factories, often by teenage girls who worked seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. and longer during the busy season. They were paid about $6 per week, and often were required to use their own needles, thread, irons and even sewing machines. The overcrowded factories (often a room in a tenement apartment) lacked ventilation; many were poorly lit firetraps without sprinklers or fire escapes.
In November 1909, 20,000 shirtwaist makers from more than 500 factories walked off their jobs. They demanded a 20 percent pay raise, a 52-hour workweek, extra pay for overtime, adequate fire escapes and open doors from the factories to the street. Their union, the International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU), held meetings in English, Yiddish and Italian. The police began arresting strikers — labeling some of them "street walkers," which was literally true, as they were carrying picket signs up and down the sidewalks. Judges fined them and sentenced some of the activists to labor camps.
But the strikers held out, and by February 1910, most of the small and midsize factories, and some larger employers, had negotiated a settlement for higher pay and shorter hours. One of the companies that refused to settle was the Triangle Waist Co., one of the largest garment makers.
That July, more than 60,000 cloak makers, mostly men, went on strike. As the strike escalated, union and business leaders invited prominent Boston attorney Louis Brandeis to New York to mediate the conflict. Brandeis (later a Supreme Court justice and leader of American Zionism) plunged into a crusade to bring industrial democracy to New York's clothing industry.
Operating as a neutral mediator, and without pay, Brandeis brought the manufacturers (through their trade association) and the workers (through the ILGWU) — both led by Jews — together to hammer out an industry-wide agreement that would make strikes less likely. With Brandeis' nudging, the two sides signed the Protocol of Peace agreement that set minimum industry standards on wages, hours, piece rates and workplace safety. Under the agreement, manufacturers were to give preference to union workers. Both sides agreed to take disputes to a three-member board of arbitration.
The protocol laid the foundation for future workplace reforms during the New Deal. But the protocol's weakness was that it was a voluntary agreement, not a government regulation, and not all manufacturers signed on. Once again, one of the holdouts was the Triangle Waist Co.
The company was owned by Isaac Harris and Max Blanck, both up-from-the-sweatshop Jewish immigrants, known as the "the shirtwaist kings." They were rabidly anti-union.
On Saturday, March 25, 1911, at 4:45 p.m., near quitting time, a fire broke out on the building's eighth and ninth floors. Factory foremen had locked the exit doors to keep union organizers out and keep workers from taking breaks and stealing scraps of fabric. Other doors only opened inward and were blocked by the stampede of workers struggling to escape. The ladders of the city's fire engines could not reach high enough to save the employees. As a result, workers burned or jumped to their deaths. Experts later concluded that the fire likely was caused by a cigarette dropped on a pile of "cut-aways," or scraps of cloths, that had been accumulating for almost three months.
Out of that cauldron of misery and protest emerged a diverse progressive movement composed of unlikely allies. It included immigrants, unionists, muckraking journalists, clergy, middle-class reformers like Frances Perkins (then a Consumers League activist who would become Franklin D. Roosevelt's trailblazing secretary of labor), socialists and socialites, including Anne Morgan (daughter of Wall Street chieftain J.P. Morgan).
On April 6, 30,000 New Yorkers marched — and hundreds of thousands more lined the march's route — to memorialize the fire's victims. Numerous rallies and editorials called for reforms — not only for fire safety codes but also workplace safety standards, child labor standards, shorter work hours, minimum wages and limits in home work.
Within days of the fire, groups organized mass meetings to demand reform. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, one of the featured speakers at a rally at the Metropolitan Opera House, did not mince words.
"It is not the action of God but the inaction of man that is responsible," he thundered. "The disaster was not the deed of God (a natural disaster) but the greed of man (systematic)."
Wise did not seek charity. He demanded justice.
"We have laws that in a crisis we find are no laws, and we have enforcement that, when the hour of trial comes, we find is no enforcement. Let us lift up the industrial standards until they will bear inspection. And when we go before the legislatures, let us not allow them to put us off forever with the old answer, 'We have no money.' If we have no money for necessary enforcement of laws which safeguard the lives of workers, it is because so much of our money is wasted and squandered and stolen."
Then Rose Schneiderman — a Jewish immigrant, sweatshop worker, union organizer and socialist — rose to speak. She echoed Wise's sentiments, but went further. Having seen the police and the courts side with the garment manufacturers against the workers, and politicians in the pockets of business community, she questioned whether better laws would make a difference if they weren't enforced.
"I would be a traitor to these poor burned bodies if I came here to talk good fellowship. We have tried you good people of the public, and we have found you wanting," Schneiderman said. "This is not the first time girls have been burned alive in the city. Every week I must learn of the untimely death of one of my sister workers. Every year thousands of us are maimed. The life of men and women is so cheap, and poverty is so sacred. There are so many of us for one job, it matters little if 146 of us are burned to death. … I can't talk fellowship to you who are gathered here. Too much blood has been spilled. I know from my experience it is up to the working people to save themselves. The only way they can save themselves is by a strong working-class movement."
Public outrage led New York Gov. John Alden Dix to create the Factory Investigating Commission, with broad subpoena powers and teams of investigators, led by two savvy politicians, state Assemblyman Al Smith and state Sen. Robert Wagner. Over two years, commission members traveled up and down the state, holding hearings, visiting more than 3,000 factories in 20 industries and interviewing almost 500 witnesses. They found buildings without fire escapes, bakeries in poorly ventilated cellars with rat droppings (only 21 percent even had bathrooms, most of them unsanitary), children — some as young as 5 years old — working in canning factories and women working 18-hour days.
After the fire, many officials acknowledged there was a problem. Edward F. Croker, New York City's retired fire chief, told the commission that employers "pay absolutely no attention to the fire hazard or to the protection of the employees in these buildings. That is their last consideration." His department had cited the Triangle building for lack of fire escapes a week before the fire.
But the garment manufacturers, and the real estate, bakery and cannery industry groups, sought to stymie the commission. After the fire department ordered warehouses to install sprinklers, the Protective League of Property Owners denounced the mandate, angrily charging the city with forcing owners to use "cumbersome and costly" equipment.
A representative of the Associated Industries of New York insisted that regulations would mean "the wiping out of industry in this state." Mabel Clark of the W.N. Clark Co., a canning corporation, opposed any restrictions on child labor. "I have seen children working in factories, and I have seen them working at home, and they were perfectly happy," she declared.
Terence McGuire, president of the Real Estate Board, summed up the business argument against regulation. "To my mind this is all wrong," he declared. "The experience of the past proves conclusively that the best government is the least possible government." The board warned that new laws would drive "manufacturers out of the City and State of New York."
Fortunately, Smith, Wagner and other political leaders, fortified by a vibrant progressive movement, ignored these opponents of business regulation. In the first year, the commission proposed, and the legislature quickly passed, laws requiring mandatory fire drills, automatic sprinklers and unlocked doors during work hours. They also created rules on the storage and disposal of flammable waste, and they banned smoking from shop floors.
The next year, the legislature passed additional reforms. It set maximum numbers of workers per floor and established codes requiring new buildings to include fireproof stairways and fire escapes. It required employers to provide clean drinking water, washrooms and toilets for their employees. It gave labor commission inspectors the power to shut down unsanitary tenement sweatshops. And it ruled that women could work no more than 54 hours a week and that children younger than 18 could not work in dangerous situations.
These path-breaking state regulations, provoked by the Triangle fire, proved that government could play a powerful role in the lives of ordinary people. Other states followed suit, and, ultimately, Roosevelt, prodded by Perkins, Wagner and other veterans of New York's progressive movement, introduced New Deal reforms ending child labor, establishing a federal minimum wage and a 40-hour work week, and creating a National Labor Relations Board giving workers the right to unionize and bargain collectively with employers.
The Triangle company's owners were tried for manslaughter but were found innocent when the judge told the jury that to return a guilty verdict, they had to find that the two defendants knew or should have known that the doors were locked. But the company never recovered from the fire and the controversy. In 1918, it closed its doors.
That didn't happen to other city businesses. Contrary to the business leaders' dire predictions, they did not suffer from the new regulations. The New York Times reported in July 1914, "Notwithstanding all the talk of a probable exodus of manufacturing interests, the commission has not found a single case of a manufacturer intending to leave the State because of the enforcement of the factory laws." New York's Seventh Avenue remained the headquarters of the nation's garment industry for decades, until production gradually moved south and overseas after World War II.
Ironically, 100 years after the Triangle fire, we still hear much of the same rhetoric whenever reformers seek to use government to make businesses act more responsibly and protect consumers, workers and the environment. For example, the disasters last year that killed 29 miners in West Virginia and 11 oil rig workers in the Gulf of Mexico could have been avoided had lawmakers resisted lobbying by mine owners and oil-well owner BP to weaken safety regulations.
Today, the leading foe of reform is the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which is on a crusade against the Obama administration's plans to set new rules on unsafe workplaces, industrial hazards and threats to public health. The Chamber labels every reform effort a "job killer." Its most vocal ally in Congress is Darrell Issa, the California Republican who chairs the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. At the request of the Chamber and other industry lobbies, Issa recently launched a Congressional assault on safeguards in workplaces and communities.
In January, Issa sent letters to more than 170 companies and business lobby groups — including those representing the energy, auto, oil, chemical, health care, banking and telecommunication industries — asking them to identify "burdensome government regulations" that they want eliminated.
The business groups responded with a long wish list, including rules to control "combustible dust" that has resulted in explosions killing workers; rules to track musculoskeletal disorders such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome or back injuries that impact millions of workers at keyboards, in construction or in meat processing; and rules to address workplace noise that leads to hearing loss. And Republicans listened. They are proposing to cut Occupational Safety and Health Administration's budget by 20 percent, which, coming on top of decades of cuts, would cripple an agency that has been effective at significantly reducing workplace injuries and deaths.
If the Triangle fire occurred today, the Chamber would surely call mandatory sprinklers and fire escapes "job killing" regulations. It would call for "voluntary solutions" to sweatshops and firetraps, and ask to get government off the backs of private employers.
The Republican message, in House Speaker John Boehner's words, is that "excessive regulation costs jobs" and that the "path to prosperity" is by "getting government out of the way." Americans of earlier generations — who enjoyed the benefits of the Progressive Era and the New Deal reforms, and the political clout of a vibrant labor movement — understood this was nonsense, but it seems like these lessons have to be relearned. That's why it is important to recall the sordid circumstances in which 146 young women lost their lives at the Triangle Waist Co. a century ago.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (54 votes).
In short: a well organised raceIn full: was great running through the tunnel, loads of banter ,Date of review: October 7, 2008
In short: A good race. Enjoyed the dayDate of review: September 29, 2008
In short: Merseyside shows how cool it is yet again!In full: bit late to review but having done the British 10k today, had to add a positive review. Visited Liverpool for this race and did it with hubby. Great run, space and views great. Loved the atmosphere and the friendliness of runners and spectators. Would do this again anytime, great value and very well organised. Topped off by Macca!Date of review: July 6, 2008
In short: Great raceIn full: Even on a dull day it is a fantastic last stretch along Wallasey and into New Brighton along the Mersey, Liverpool over to the right. The tunnel itself is great and I think its enclosed space gives a sense of togetherness. (It's not claustrophobic though and it's free of traffic and fumes.)Nice t shirt and medal - yellow, submarine - and goody bag in general good, too.Not many drawbacks. There were not enough toilets at the start. I think there were more in 2007 and even then there was a fairly long queue; this time it was massive. Finally, those banners at the start for anticipated times were lacking. Date of review: June 17, 2008
In short: 3rd Tunnel in a row and with organisation & the potential for a pb I'll be back every yearIn full: Any race that provides you with a unique experience (running thru the tunnel) would be high up my list anyway when you throw in excellent organisation (as all L1310 races are), superb value for money (others please take note) and a fast course this is an essential race for me. Yes the coming out of the tunnel is an incline but I have found I more than make up for that lost time with the decline into the tunnel and on the 4K down the promenade. I've heard some complain about the scenery and yes its a tunnel but the last 4K down the prom provides excellent views of Liverpool not that you'll notice as you'll be motoring on your way to a fast time. I've done this race 3 times and my two fastest ever times were set here. Its races like this that make me despair of other races who get it so wrong maybe Mr Rothwell and his team should produce an idiots guide!Date of review: June 6, 2008
In short: Had a great timeIn full: Loved the atmosphere, the water twice, the firemen, the end (as usual). Will do this every year. Well done Liverpool, a positive race.Date of review: June 5, 2008
In short: fantastic event, and highly recommendedIn full: excellent atmosphere and the free travel was excellent. left the car and my significant others (gf and daughter) at the end, and got hte train back to the start. busy at the start area, but knew it would be with so many entrants. good route, and the tunnel wasn't as bad as i was expecting. will know for next time!Date of review: June 3, 2008
In short: felt quicker than it wasIn full: before the race wasn't really up to it, which to be honest isn't a good start!!! ...However when i got started to my suprise i really got into, would partly be to the great oggy, oggy, oggy shouts! atmosphere really pushed me! Then the fire men helping out keeping us cool, and the gorgeous water front run!!! There was so much going on the pain wasn't highlighted as much!!! haha!!!Think little improvments would be to have more toilets as i know myself i have a good few nervous wee's before haha!!! Oh,.....Whoever the guys was who decided on his run to stop off at the pub and then stand at the door watching us all run past you! EVil! haha!but good idea!!!beat my PB by 5mins from the sefton park run on the 11th!!! YAy! well done liverpool! bring on next year! an well done everyone!!! :) x Date of review: June 2, 2008
In short: It's not every day you get to experience the tunnel on footIn full: This was the first time I'd done the Tunnel 10K and I thought that it was great. The climb out wasn't quite as bad as I'd feared, although the short hill soon afterwards proved to be something of a sting in the tail. Getting to run inside the tunnel is an interesting experience. The lack of loos at the start neeeds to be addressed. All in all, however, I'd recommend the run, although my legs did feel rather achy at the Macca gig at Anfield later on in the day. Date of review: June 2, 2008
In short: unique raceIn full: The slope out of thetunnel is manageable, it is the small climb immediately after the tunnel that is a killer.Very well organised this year with the exception of the toilet shortage at the start.The chip meant that it was not a huge crush at the start.Date of review: June 2, 2008

Ritz-Carlton Is Coming to Wherever You (and the Chinese) Want to Be
SAN DIEGO (TheStreet) -- Ritz-Carlton is embarking on an ambitious expansion of properties over the next three years that will bring its total portfolio to 100 hotels worldwide in ever more exotic locations as it seeks to capitalize on luxury travel trends.
The expansion, announced last week, involves approximately 20 new properties by 2016, including six hotels scheduled to open by the last quarter of this year. Openings are scheduled for locations including Bali, Morocco and three sites in China.
"This is part of our strategic growth plan and is also based on our desire to be where our guests travel," says Ritz-Carlton's global officer of worldwide operations, Bob Kharazmi.
During a telephone interview about the expansion, Kharazmi explained that the hotel chain uses a variety of input to identify locations for future properties, including surveys, customer comments, studies of luxury trends and meetings with business partners who book substantial amounts of business with Ritz-Carlton.
The emerging travel habits of the Chinese are also playing a role.
"If you look into the travel patterns of the Chinese out of China, it is growing rapidly. Travel out of China will hit 100 million travelers by 2020, so we are always interested to know where they are going, and that becomes a road map for us," Kharazmi adds.
Among the exciting locations coming for the luxury hotel chain is Tamuda Bay, just a few miles outside of Tangier, Morocco, scheduled to open in 2015. The chain is also opening a property in Marrakech in 2016.

In the seventeenth-century, the Dutch lawyer, magistrate, and scholar Hugo Grotius advanced Protestant natural-law thinking by grounding it in human nature rather than in the divine commands of God. As he claimed, "the mother of right—that is, of natural law—is human nature." For Grotius, if an action agrees with the rational and social aspects of human nature, it is permissible; if it doesn't, it is impermissible.
This view of law shaped his writings on jurisprudence, which in turn, had a profound influence on the shape of the law in the West. The Founding Fathers of America considered Grotius's jurisprudence to be authoritative and relied on it when forming their perspectives on such areas as international law. One of the principles that Grotius advanced—and that was enshrined in our common law—was the concept that for a formal contract to be legally binding it must be entered into freely and with the consent of all parties involved.
In certain circumstances, such as when entering into commercial contracts, consent is considered to be inviolable precondition. If a person who is incapacitated and is unable to give consent or makes an agreement under duress, the contract is rendered invalid. Today, we consider this principle to be such a basic legal axiom that it seems inconceivable that anyone would challenge it.
And yet, that is precisely what the Obama Administration is doing with its inclusion of an "individual mandate" in the Affordable Care Act.

A warp mesh in E3. Just to how this would look.
A warp mesh in E3. Just to how this would look.
I drew an aligning grid and moved the nodes in sets.
A Xara mold to make the template for the sphere.
You do some very clever things. How did you get so many points on the mould in Xara? I only get perimeter points and only at the corners.
Expression 3.2 bitmap warp mesh. There is a capability to increase the nodes. You can also do vector warping. Expression doesn't do molding, and I made the template in Xara. I saved the Xara drawing to EPS and opened it in Expression. The drawing was placed on a separate layer and locked. The image was inserted into Expression and defined as a warp group. I used a node tool to manually position the nodes.
I made a few tree strokes using a method similar to the cylinder at one time.
Expression does vector warping, too.
A Xara drawing to set up the node points in perspective. Xara does very good at this.
Thought I would draw a grid in XXP and use Page Curl to shape the grid. Thought making just half of the cylinder would be good. Made transparent space on either end, but Page Curl didn't use the transparent space. I added a row of pixels at the ends to get it to work.
Gee Rich that is getting seriously difficult for a simple mesh!
Design is thinking made visual.
In Xara, you can draw a line and circle, group the two and drag the circle towards the line.
Perspective warp.

Timber Counties Won't Rush To Re-Hire Deputies
News that federal payments to timber counties are being revived for one more year has not put rural counties in Oregon in any mood to rehire sheriff's deputies and others they have already laid off.
With many counties having tapped reserve funds to ease the pain of budget cuts, much of the $100 million coming to Oregon will go toward staving off even deeper cuts during the next go-round on county budgets.
Lane County just went through $99 million in budget cuts, which among other things forced the early release of 100 inmates from the jail.
Lane County administrator Liane Richardson says she cannot recommend to commissioners that they restore services when they have an $8 million budget hole to fill next year, and there is no long-term funding solution.
