Hiking upriver allowed us to gradually get a sense of our surroundings. The steamy jungle grew thick and tangled right up to the edge of the riverbank and it felt like we were skirting our way along the fringes of a soon to be discovered wilderness. At one point we took a wrong turn off the worn path into an Indian village, where the natives came out and gave us directions in broken Spanish. We regained our bearings and headed back upriver, consciously trying to follow in the tracks of 4WD pickups long passed.
As we moved along, the sounds of click-clicking and rustling leaves told us that we were not alone. Tiny frogs chirped and jumped out of our way, and a jittery jesus lizard skipped frantically across the surface of the water as we approached, reaching the other side of the river and clinging on to a branch that had fallen in. With his head cocked sideways, he eyed us suspiciously as if he wasn't sure what our next move would be. The trek upstream was a stirring introduction to the jungle lands we were about to enter.
23 river crossings and 9 kilometers later, we came upon the edge of the Corcovado Rainforest, welcomed by a park ranger about to make his way into the interior. He said that after heading straight into the rainforest from where we were, it was still a muddy 2 kilometers uphill before we would get to Los Patos Ranger Station, our stop for the night. He told us that if we followed him in, he could show us a trail to a hidden waterfall where we could wash off. At this point we were clocking in at an hour or so from our first river crossing in Guadalupe. Not too bad, we thought, we were right on schedule.

Breaking: Fewer than 50,000 people have enrolled in health plans via ObamaCare website thus far, says WSJ
posted at 5:41 pm on November 11, 2013 by Allahpundit
Add in another 50,000 people or so who've signed up on the individual state exchanges and you've got roughly 100,000 total enrollees through all of October and 10 days of November. The program's target for October alone was 494,620. And that figure represents what they thought would be a "slow" month, as the public gradually got up to speed on the need to sign up before December 15th. If you're looking at the bigger picture, they're aiming for seven million new enrollees by March 31 of next year. They're 1.4 percent of the way there with almost 25 percent of the initial enrollment period having already elapsed.
They're in trouble.
So far, private health plans have received enrollment data for 40,000 to 50,000 users of the federal marketplace, the people familiar with the figures said. The federal marketplace uses an industry-standard format to exchange enrollment information, known as an 834 transmission…
In some cases, insurers have reported duplicated 834s and other data-integrity problems, but the people familiar with the matter said they believed these figures reflected an accurate count of enrollments through late last week…
The initial federal numbers set for release this week are expected to show enrollment only through the end of October, so the figures are expected to be lower. Efforts to clean up the data and reduce duplications could further cull the formal count.…
The administration hasn't said whether it will release demographic data such as ages when it announces the number of enrollees.
Fearless prediction: They're not going to release the demographic data. The only way to make these numbers look more dismal than they are is if it turns out that many, or even most, of the 100,000 who've enrolled are older people or people with preexisting conditions. Which, in fairness to the feds, was always likely to be the case in the first weeks after launching the exchange, even if things had gone swimmingly with the website otherwise. It stands to reason that the people most eager to get coverage are those who've been locked out of it or been paying higher premiums in the past. It's one thing to make that point, though, when you've got 500,000 new enrollees on the books and can cite such a robust figure as proof that the "young healthies" are out there and are on their way into the risk pool. It's another to make that point when you've got one-tenth that number, which means a skewed pool and circumstantial evidence that maybe the "young healthies" have now been discouraged from even trying to sign up. In fact, the Journal published a story just a week ago quoting insurers as saying the early enrollees thus far are older than they expected. If, for the reason I just gave, they were already expecting an older, sicker crop among the early enrollees, how much older and sicker must the data they're seeing be for them to be surprised at the extent of it?
Peter Suderman says it's time to start thinking about worst-case scenarios:
The potential problems are not confined to the near term either. Very soon, the short-term technical troubles could begin to have meaningful longer-term policy consequences. Insurers must decide what plans to offer and what rates to charge in the first half of next year. If enrollment is low, if the exchanges are still broken, and if the president and his administration are still losing credibility and popularity as a result of the rollout debacle, how will insurers react? By pulling plans from the market? By raising rates?…
This could still be turned around, perhaps even soon. But it's time to start considering the worst-case scenarios: that the exchanges continue to malfunction, that plan cancellations go into effect, that insurers see the political winds shifting and stop playing nice with the administration, and that significant numbers of people are left stranded without coverage as a result. Rather than reforming the individual market, which was flawed but did work for some people, Obamacare will have destroyed it and left only dysfunction and chaos in its wake.
Yuval Levin said not long ago that you can't start talking about a "death spiral" until things have actually spiraled — not just higher rates next year, in other words, but higher rates year after year as the cost of maintaining coverage becomes prohibitively expensive for more and more middle class people and they end up dropping it, leaving only older, sicker people in the pool. As Suderman notes, if low enrollment persists into the spring and the 2015 rates are set based on that data, we might have our first full downward turn in the spiral. Exit question: How long before Obama announces some sort of extension of next year's enrollment deadline? Over/under is Friday.

text: Just started beekeeping in April, 2012. I was scared to death, but now I don't know what I ever did without the girls. I adore my bees; they're not just insects to me! Ha! I can't believe what a great source of info this site is, and I look forward to "meeting" many of you. I have two TBHs. I bought my bees from BeeWeaver in Texas. My queens are Elizabeth and Latifah, and both have been very forgiving hives, believe me. If I could accidentally drop, knock over, shake, vibrate, spill, bumble or otherwise interfere, believe me, I have done it. Live and learn.

ENJOYING THE SPECTACLE A child marvels.
In seriously dark conditions, art is simply the ritual of making light.
It's more proper to say that Saturday's festival of the Sacred and Profane was more of a communion or convention than a festival. Assembled annually by a disorganized and amorphous crew at Battery Steele on Peaks Island, the event seems to persist without any fanfare or publicity, like the birthday of a modest old friend.
A member of this year's organizational team put it to me in Zen-like terms: "Some people make stuff, it's pretty, then it's gone and everyone goes home. That's it." This reductive, nothing-to-see-here angle isn't merely a concealed peevishness. Like anyone else, artists can be protective of their rituals, and the festival is a time-honored occasion for some of the city's most original artists to create work both anonymously and under uniquely rich conditions.
Sacred and Profane has been around for much longer than I've been attending, but even in that smaller window, American culture has become aggressively documentarian. It's now an era where virtually everyone is daily equipped with a camera or recording application (to say nothing of humble scribes). Needless to say, the performances and installation work of the event do not easily cooperate with this instinct. Many are time-sensitive. Many depend on tactile sensation. Nobody's found a decent way to capture dance without reducing it to artless, two-dimensional plodding, and not even Homeric verse can recreate what it feels like to be inside an enormous cave. Even at the risk of hypocrisy, it must be said that Sacred and Profane is a profoundly experiential event. Each account differs, and little documenting can do it justice.
For many, that first rush of experience begins on the ferry. Things started getting weird during the procession from the ferry terminal to the fortifications, led by an enormous variation of a Pac-man ghost and some trumpeters. As we were steered into the first turret, a carousel of wooden marionettes hanging from tall rafters became visible, each beset with big waxy wings. Deep, moaning horns bellowed from the stomach of the battery, its dark tunnel set with a prefab wooden archway.
Two curtains separated the room from the awning of the north turret. Behind them loomed a human-sized installation perched in an unlit room. A sheer white muslin gown was fastened to a thin skeletal frame, the room illuminated by a glowing halogen light embedded in the figure's chest. The detailed contours of the frame made it look distinctly human while still anonymous, and the radiant heart left no question what power it obeyed.
Barreling down the battery and into its first room, participants circled around a single bulb, its cord suspended vertically to a point a couple feet off the ground. A strange elliptical glow surrounded its dim, unshaded light, and the cement floor below was finished with a powdery sheen, as if mica or silica. As the first in a series of rooms that altered sensory perception, the optical field presented an illusory rabbit-hole entirely appropriate to the themes of the day.

Location: Arthropod-borne Animal Diseases Research
Project Number: 3020-32000-005-09-N
Project Type: Non-Funded Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jan 1, 2010
End Date: Dec 31, 2014
The objective will be to develop, expedite the evaluation and standardization of Rift Valley fever (RVF) diagnostic assays and vaccine control strategies.
This project will utilize the vector-borne disease expertise of the ARS, Arthropod-Borne Animal Diseases Research Unit (ABADRU) and the Rift Valley fever (RVF) diagnostic expertise of the Agricultural Research Council (ARC) to develop, evaluate, and standardize diagnostic assays and vaccines for RVF. The approach will be to develop a young ruminant animal challenge model to evaluate existing and newly developed vaccines and diagnostics for RVF. The collaborative project will include the evaluation of existing and newly developed diagnostic tests such as various viral genome amplification assays (real-time RT-PCR, RT-LAMP, and LATE-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) based on recombinant antigens (RVF-N, -G2, and –NSs). This will be achieved by direct comparison of available assays in both field-deployable and diagnostic laboratory based formats. The goal is to provide recommendations for standardized diagnostics that can be universally applied by international disease outbreak response teams. The collaborative project will also evaluation of the host immune response to new vaccines and virus challenge.

I am now on the organic email loop - where the oils are not discussed.
Michael, you are still using the oils?
I will be getting my bees, frames brood & honey/pollen in 2 weeks - yeah the easter bunny is selling them to me. Any who, the girl I am buying them from does IPM and only uses the chemicals when she feels she has to.
So, when my bee families get here should I give them a grease pattie? sugar syrup? (dandylions are everywhere, my iris are starting to bud). I bought a manuscript from a man in SE Missouri about chemical free beekeeping. He uses the oils, liquid lethacin (spelling - I've had no coffee yet) - I've also wondered about the crystal Vit C someone else uses on this board.
I have a screened BB for both of the hives and the 4.9 cell foundation will be here soon. What she will give me will be the regular sized cell foundation.
Should I spray a little mist of syrup w/oils on the 4.9 to get them excited about moving on it?
Martha in KC and tired.

After week 6, and against arguably the NFL's best defense Sunday, the Giants rushed for 149 yards and now rank ... guess where... still 6th in average yards per carry, down a tad to 4.6 yards per game.
Additionally, the team now ranks 9th overall in total yards rushed from scrimmage.
During last week, most of the threads were poo pooing the stat, claiming much of the yardage was gained during garbage time. The truth is that much is gained in the 4th quarter when the defense is worn down and when time is being churned off the clock.
BTW, you ever wonder how you wait all week anticipating the game, then want to see your team eat up the clock to get the game over with?
i am loving the running game. beatty has been solid at LT continuing to progress since last yr. that detached retina set him back some time but u can see he is an excellent LT and i've always maintained that. Lockler was an excellent FA signing that many slept on. I figured he would beat out DD for the RT spot.
the OL is gelling. But the reason I think we saw the OL we saw yesterdya, and it sounds crazy, but 2 words: DAVID DIEHL
he was excellent as that swing/te tackle. and he allowed us to outSF SF by lining up 1v1 and punching em in the mouth. DD is gonna be hungry and prob play much better in this role, so i think he'll be ok with being the 6th man.
And of course, the whole Eli factor of getting us into plays...setting up protection...i even believe he helps out in assessing run blocking info. i never heard a QB single out each LB, and we ran it for the TD....
if this run game is here to stay, with Eli...we're unstoppable literally. and it will help the D out...i said we'd beat SF by more than 1 possession and that the DL would show up and force Smith into 2 picks (he threw 3) and that the win would propel us on like a 10 game win streak...and now with the way the schedule is shaping up with teams and their injuries...i believe it is extremely possible
If we can finish the season ranked in the top 5-6 in rushing, we will go extremely deep in the SB tournament! Scary to think we were 28th in rushing last yr & won it all. We are running the ball better than we have in over 2yrs. The O-line has not allowed a sack for 3 straight games & only 4 for the yr so far & 3 came in the opener vs Dallas! I agree that if we keep playing the rest of the yr like we did vs SF, we can easily reel off a good long winning streak!
The redskins have a pretty good run D, ranked second only giving up 88 yds per game; however, their passing D is the worst in the league...anyone think Eli and company might have a big day?????

When a man is partaking in Doggy Style with a women, he "Changes Holes" sudenly without warning. Meanwhile a friend is hiding with a camera ready. As the women shows a "startled" expression on her face, the man puts his hands behind the women's head like moose antlers. This is the point where the hiding friend jumps out and takes a photo. She then looks like a startled moose.
Wow, perfect picture man, it was taken right at perfect moment. I cant wait to show her boyfriend the startled moose.

Maybe they would finally be able to break out of their shell, play with consistency and become perennial title contenders. Maybe Eli Manning would take another step towards solidifying a place in Canton. Maybe Jason Pierre-Paul would emerge as the next Lawrence Taylor and maybe this team could repeat as Super Bowl champions.
Excerpt: "Talent. It's what makes the NFL go 'round. Every team wants it, not every team has it, and even some who are fortunate enough to acquire it still find a way to fall flat on their face. Talent is one of many words that can be used to describe the 2012 New York Giants, and it is also what gave fans hope heading into the season that this team would be different.
None of those "maybe's" came to fruition this year. Today, safety Antrel Rolle apologized on behalf of his teammates for the colossal failure that was the 2012 season.
"Just want to apologize for a letdown," Rolle said on WFAN. "Unfortunately, we came up a little bit short this year. Something that pretty much caught all of us by surprise."
Rolle was the leader of a secondary that ranked 28th in the league in yards given up through the air. It's hard to pin the blame on any one player, because there were breakdowns throughout the entire unit. The pass rush was non-existent, Corey Webster was atrocious and Kenny Phillips missed over half the season with a knee injury. This unit was rarely, if ever, at full strength and there was not enough depth to account for any shortcomings." Read more...

text: Hi All, I enjoy Beesource forum greatly. I will be a new beekeeper in the spring. I have always been interested in raising bees, the right time to do this is now for me. I have read everything that I can get a hold off. I have checked out many hours of you tube. I've joined the local bee club. I've got a subsciption to Bee Culture. I've purchased a bee jacket,smoker,hive tools and I've purchased Woodenware from Humble Abodes (Maine manufacturing of bee woodenware)and already assembled the boxes and frames. I decided to go with 8 frame deeps for the brood boxes and 8 frame mediums for the supers. I've built the hive stands and the ipm screened bottom boards. I've ordered a package from the local bee club, I've also ordered a 4 frame nuc and a 5 frame nuc from different local maine beekeepers. Today we are in the blizzard but spring will come. Hoppfully I've thought of most of what I need.


text:
I was just reading the following web page: http://www.beeworks.com/ModKit.htm
and the info sounds good. The 10-frame WBC hive plans elsewhere on this site show a ventilated (?) cover. Is what the webpage describing "just" a bottom board and hive stand that is turned 90 degrees in fabrication (possibly with screen bottom board) and a hive cover that is ventilated? Is the hive inner cover screened as well so bees wont build into the telescoping cover? Enquiring soon to be new-bee beekeeper wants to know!

For those interested, I just got the cut off saw to go with this jig at harbor Freight for $27.99 using coupon code (83634902). $7 discount right off the bat. Bench Top Cut Off Saw
I have made a tool to aid those of us using a Harbor freight chop saw.
This jig simply bolts in with the supplied bolts and greatly speeds and "standardizes" the rough cut off operation. Using this jig gives you a rough cut case a few thousands long with a nice even mouth. No more uneven mouths catching on the final trimmer!
To use it;
Just unscrew the thumb screw, catch the nut for reuse and set your clamp to the side.
Bolt it in using your 3mm allen wrench and start cutting. My friends are cutting around 30 cases a minute fairly easily. Just slide the case in from the left, the case rim catches on a protrusion, chop it, push the next case in against the base of the just cut case.
The just cut case gets ejected under spring power out the right side a couple inches and the next snaps in place!
This means your right hand never has to leave the saw handle and your left hand is feeding the cases.
Occasionally you will find a case hangs up. Almost always it is a damaged rim. I usually shoot a little shot of thin lubricant (Hornady one shot, silicone lube etc) into the jig before using if it has been sitting a few days and everything runs smoothly.
Here's the saw it is designed for. (pretty cheap from Harbor Freight)
Sorry for the short video, I am not smart phone upload savvy...
Notice the ejection of the cut case, If you put this at the end of a bench with a bucket below it does a good job of catching them.
These are $50 shipped. (fees included) If you use a USPS money order. PM me for address.
These are well worth it. Check out all the feedback on 300blktalk.com
Ppal to vonzep58(removethis)@yahoo.com do not assume ppal puts your address on the pmt info. sometimes it does not.

" The world is a very dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who do nothing about them." - Albert Einstein, 1879-1955
the jig is slick it is a must have IMO if your going to make a lot of ammo for this round .
great idea an damm good price .
Can that be made to trim them to 1" for making 7.62x25 from .223?

It should get them VERY close to 7.62x25 length but you will need to use a couple washers to catch the left side adjusting slot. if you want one made that will be designed to get there without washers and such let me know.
I think you'd have a big market for the 223 to 762X25 tok conversions. I know I'd be interested. I started making them using a copper pipe cutter but it's a slow process...... B2B
I am going to be in the shop for several days. Someone here or elsewhere asked me to look at this (was it you?) I was planning on making a few (5-10) to do that.
That may have been me. Had a few rough days at work, had to stay late with broken airplanes, etc. I would like one purpose built for 7.62x25.

Town Square
Blueprint for change in Menlo Park?
Original post made by Renee Batti, associate editor of The Almanac, on Jan 30, 2007
By Martin Engel
A central theme drove last fall's City Council elections in Menlo Park. That theme contributed to the dramatic turnover of the City Council.
We, the citizens of Menlo Park, demanded greater openness from our government. We voted for accountability and responsiveness to the needs and wishes of all the residents. (See Almanac editorial, Jan. 17.)
However, one of the themes not adequately promoted, or demanded from candidates in the campaign, was that of greater citizen participation and our assumption of greater responsibility for effective government. After all, in a democracy, whose government is it anyhow? And, we are ultimately responsible for making it work on our behalf. We elect representatives, and when those elected officials pursue agendas not to our liking, we don't do much more than complain and eventually vote them out.
But, there are other options for us. As President John F. Kennedy famously said, "Ask not what your country can do for you ... " You know the rest. That is to say, we all can and we must assume a greater participatory responsibility.
Indeed, the Derry referendum did bring large numbers of Menlo Park residents and business people actively into the political arena. As we all know, participatory democracy in government (like the historical New England town hall meetings) is often held up as a political ideal. One form of such active participation in Menlo Park is membership on one of the eight commissions that advise the City Council.
However, what we are advocating here goes well beyond these commissions to draw on greater citizen participation. We are proposing a number of standing permanent committees -- not ad hoc task forces -- that are duly structured but, unlike the commissions, quite independent of the council and administration.
Membership for each of these committees could be as many as a dozen or more. Each committee's rotating voluntary membership is to be drawn from various neighborhoods or precincts in Menlo Park, assuring broad representation. They would function as strategic "think tanks," to advise, investigate, perform research, advocate, and produce position papers. These groups would keep the council, administration and citizenry fully informed about the ongoing process of deliberation and reflect the broad interests of the city's residents.
The committees would be organized around major, permanent concerns and big issues, such as the budget, economic development and business, the general plan, government oversight and accountability, urban infrastructure and the El Camino Grand Boulevard committee, and possibly other broad topics that are a permanent part of the life of our city.
The central thrust of these committees would be to implement the advocacy statement: "Get involved! Participate! Give a damn!" Unlike the commissions, one purpose is to keep our council and administration honest and working on behalf of us, the voters.
Yes, I know, the devil is in the details. But that should not deter us from working on those details to make this happen. The recent election demonstrated just how many people are truly smart, thoughtful, caring members of our city community, and that they could and did play an active role in the process of government. This was also demonstrated by the recent ad hoc budget committee that labored mightily, even if to no avail.
Now things are different. An excellent "proof of concept" of this broad proposal might be to reconstitute that same budget task force into one of the first of these suggested permanent standing committees. A period of trial and error to shape that standing committee could serve as the template for the other committees.
If we wish government to hear us, we must speak in an organized, orderly, thoughtful, well reasoned way. The committee structure can give us that voice by raising it to the level of a chorus of Menlo Park citizens.

Could you please tell us who the "we"are who are advocating the committees?
The budget advisory committee was exemplary and one that could/should have some permanent status.
Please elaborate on your statement about commissions- "Unlike the commissions, one purpose is to keep our council and administration honest and working on behalf of us, the voters." In what way are the current commissions, which are also made up of residents and voters, not working on behalf of the voters?
If commissioners or council members don't agree with you or don't appoint you to a commission, does that make them dishonest?

In reference to Martin Engel's "Blueprint for Change" I have the
following observations:
Mr. Engel wants to create new committees because the
the current commissions do not"keep our council and administration
honest and working on behalf of us, the voters." That's a very broad
brush for all those people who serve on the nine commissions as
Before we run off in multiple directions Mr. Engel needs
to provide more evidence that the current citizens who are serving
on Commissions are not representing the community interests.
Innuendo is not evidence.

I don't think a bunch of committees with no real mission, charged with producing "position papers," is going to do anything other than cause frustration and take up time.
I do agree that a budget oversight committee or something like Atherton's audit committee would be a useful addition to Menlo Park's roster of advisory committees.

The commissions that have been chartered by the city already do provide forums for citizen input. The problem arises when City Council members simply ignore what the commissions say and are allowed to do so with impunity. However, elections are the solution to that problem.
The commissions we already have might want to look for ways to allow more citizen participation on special issues. However, we should remember that hundreds of people participated in the Your City/Your Decision Budget Survey process last year--the problem in Menlo Park is not that we need to"Get involved! Participate! Give a damn!" People care, speak out and participate already.
The Derry project referendum is not a great example of representative government. If the members of Menlo Park Tomorrow had not been able to bankroll paid signature gatherers for their referendum, I doubt it would have gone anywhere. The well-connected, wealthy and powerful have always found it easy to participate in government; they do not need city sanctioned "think tanks" and committees.
I disagree with your assessment of Budget Advisory Committee. The BAC was given a poor charter; the previous council limited their scope to working on the Budget Survey under city staff's direction. However, the committee did not question the budget assumptions provided by the city staff, the same assumptions that led to the current controversy about a 3.7 million surplus. In fact, there have been city surpluses for 4 out of the previous 5 years as well.
Creating the proper checks and balances for an ad hoc budget committee, or "think tank", to produce the fair, unbaised and reliable "position papers" needed to govern would be incredibly expensive. The former budget task force should not be reconstituted.
Instead, Menlo Park should consider creating an Office of the City Auditor, similar to the office Palo Alto has. This office would report directly to the City Council to provide analyses of financial and operating data, as well as conduct internal audits and report conflicts of interest.

I second that motion!

How is the Palo Alto city auditor job structured? It seems there would be two big differences between an audit committee and a city auditor:
A city auditor is a city employee with a salary and benefits, hired by the city manager. This adds to the city's costs, and raises questions about the auditor's impartiality.
A audit committee with an appropriately broad charter draws upon the talents of independent residents who volunteer their time, and are not beholden to the city manager.
We've all seen that Menlo Park is full of smart people willing to invest time into their community. Why not take full advantage of that?
a resident of Menlo Park: University Heights
on Feb 1, 2007 at 6:06 pm
Death by Committee: the City Auditor position in Palo Alto is a paid employee. This of course does cost money, but so would the support for an ad hoc committee. Government needs systems of checks and balances, regardless of the talents of its citizens. Being "smart" does not always mean a person is unbiased, is fully apprised of all sides of an issue, or is even completely honest. Putting the proper checks in balances in place for a citizen committee and supporting them would cost much more than having a city auditor.
The Palo Alto city website has a great description of their city auditor position. The qualifications of the position are somewhat similar to those of a finance manager (the auditor must be a C.P.A.), but because the Auditor reports to the City Council instead of the City Manager, many conflicts of interest are avoided. The charter of the City Auditor also gives her certain authority so that if a City Council member has a conflict of interest the auditor can take action. Also, since the auditor position is not involved in making decisions about how financial resources should be used, their information about available resources is not tainted by politics.
Here's a link to more information about the Palo Alto city auditor:

I happen to prefer a citizen's committee of some sort that can serve as a check and balance to staff and politics. Menlo Park is blessed with many talented and caring residents. Their support from staff should not equate anywhere close to a full-time staff person with salary and full benefits.
My sense is that existing Commissions do good work and I'm very grateful to fellow residents who care enough to volunteer their time in that way. However, it may be time to revisit each Commission's mission and determine whether these need to be modified in any way and whether there should be different ones. With the city's financial problems, for example, I think a Budget Advisory Committee is needed. So is an Economic Advisory Committee. Maybe these could be one and the same.
I can't figure out how someone thinks an auditor who reports to the City Council will be free of politics, especially when there is a close-minded regime like the last Council. It would take a unique person to stand tall and be totally independent of political agendas. Yes, it's possible but how likely? I have more faith in the objectivity of a citizen committee (IF comprised of a variety of residents as was the BAC) than paid staff serving politicians. Now, if a paid analyst worked with such a committee, that might be the ideal.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Time: July 20, 2010 at 6pm to August 31, 2010 at 12pm
Location: zine exhibition
Street: tatar beyi sokak 27 kuledibi beyoğlu

Event Type: open, call, zine, exhibition
Organized By: gamze ozer
Latest Activity: Jul 26, 2010
fanzines, zines, independent publications and artist books are acting as a response to the mainstream media with an activist manner. as they are a way of understanding our relation with society and even with ourselves, maybe slower but more attractive for sure.
however in times of limitless possibility to spread information virtually through the network; communication with printed material is decreasing. the proportion of people who make zines and people who write blogs or collect images of everything is a good example for this. but actually arranging collages, drawings, texts, photos etc. on paper, as a medium itself, has so many possibilities that adds more value to our thoughts.
the aim of the project is to bring together independent publications and to encourage people to distribute their ideas, thoughts via printed or handmade materials. it is about to share obsessions, passions and things in your mind on paper that can be shuffled and touched. it is an open call for everyone to enhance these form of expression!
all these publications are going to be collected in form of an archive that is continuously extended and meant to be traveling through different venues in turkey and abroad.
first exhibition will take place in 15th september 2010 in manzara perspectives in istanbul.
so everybody, we are waiting for you to make your own editions, or send the ones you already did. you are completely free about topics and format, you can even ask to your mother to collaborate with you.
we want people to go home and lie on the floor and make zine!
send your editions until 31 of august to tatar beyi sokak 27 kuledibi beyoğlu/istanbul turkey.
please include, a short biography, full contact details, date of birth and nationality.

About 60 protesters of the Highway 101 bypass around Willits took over the parking lot of the Willits CalTrans building at the corner of Baechtel and East Hill roads Tuesday for about three hours.
Two protesters, ages 78 and 76, parked their lawn chairs in key positions, blocking CalTrans worker egress. They were arrested by California Highway Patrol officers.
"The two elderly ladies made it clear they wanted to be arrested," says CHP spokesman Steve Krul. All prisoners are required to be handcuffed, Krul added, but due to their age the ladies were not cuffed behind their backs.
CalTrans had advance word of the protest, and prepared employees, locking doors and parking elsewhere. In a seeming coincidence, the protest timing corresponded to a previously scheduled KGO-TV tour of the bypass zone and interviews with protesters and CalTrans.
Mary N. Korte, 78, of Willits and Priscilla Thimas, 76, of Ukiah were arrested on suspicion of trespassing. They were booked at the Mendocino County Jail and released.
In other protest news, the Brooktrails Board of Directors voted Tuesday to reconsider its March 26 resolution pledging continued support for the bypass. The motion will be agendized for the May 14 board meeting.
Board President Tony Orth recused himself from the issue and it passed unanimously.
Board members indicated their support for the reconsideration was to provide the community more opportunity to weigh in on the issue.
On March 26, only three members of the public were present for the initial resolution vote, and none spoke about it. Since that time, Brooktrails board meetings have been well-attended.
About 30 people attended Tuesday's meeting, most protesting the bypass.
The board also passed a resolution requesting the Fair Political Practices Commission issue an opinion on the need for Orth to recuse himself from any decision relating to the bypass. During the discussion, Director Rick Williams apprised the community he had proposed the original resolution, not Orth.

LEE HAZLEWOOD INDUSTRIES ::You Turned My Head Around 1967-70:: Light in the Attic Records:: $55:: By 1967, Lee Hazlewood had amassed enough cultural capital, through the success of his work with Nancy Sinatra and Duane Eddy, to turn his mustachioed cowboy pop into a cottage industry. Marketing a hip wistfulness in a Day-Glo pop market wound up being an uphill battle. In the rearview, though, it would appear that Hazlewood and Co. were inventing something called "country rock," but imbued with Hazlewood's uniquely warped musical sense. This vinyl-only set boxes 11 singles by LHI obscurities like the Nico-esque Lynn Castle, acid-tinged rockers Kitchen Cinq and Honey LTD, and Nancy Sinatra sound-alike Suzi Jane Hokom.

Swan Lake: The Royal Ballet
Royal Opera House
Swan Lake is now one of the best loved of all classical ballets, but on its 1877 premiere it was a disaster. The original choreographers had failed to recognize the brilliant innovations in Tchaikovsky's score – his first for ballet.
By 1895 times had changed and the great Mariinsky classical choreographers Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov were able to bring to their choreography an intense lyricism that matched Tchaikovsky's own. Their choreography for the ballet remains popular the world over.
Great Russian dancer and choreographer Konstantin Sergeyev staged Petipa and Ivanov's choreography for the Mariinsky in 1950, and his production is a much loved staple of the company's repertory. Sergeyev brought his acute dramatic understanding of Swan Lake to create a sensitive preservation of the original choreography, in which the Mariinsky's acclaimed corps de ballet is brought to the fore.

I'm the proud owner of the XD-M .45 Competition model with the 5.25" barrel. One of my favorite .45's.
Now, the "original" XD series .45 has a serious shortcoming that is discussed I am pretty sure on the XD forums. The redesign was incorporated into the XD-M series, and so if the XDS is "not" an "-M" model then I'd look closely at those shortcomings. You might not have issues with it but when I was shopping, it stuck me that the shortcoming is a design issue that needs to be addressed by a gunsmith.
My other XD is a .40 sub-compact. Nice but not as accurate with the shorter barrel... rather, I'm not as good with the shorter barrel That one I keep as a dedicated home defense round placed in a strategic location in the house. The XD-M series gets my thumbs-up!

Philip Guston
12 May 2000 - 30 Jul 2000
The National Gallery of Canada is proud to present the exclusive North American showing of Philip Guston: Paintings of Four Decades, on view from 12 May to 30 July 2000. The exhibition, organized by Dr. Christoph Schreier, Deputy Director, Kunstmuseum, Bonn, features 45 paintings by Philip Guston produced from 1947 to 1979, including both abstract and figurative works. Montreal-born American artist Philip Guston (1913 - 1980) is one of the great figurative painters of the twentieth century. During his early years in Los Angeles, he became involved in the artistic and political movements of the West Coast intellectuals. Guston is considered one of the most important Abstract Expressionists of his generation, alongside other important representatives of the movement including Jackson Pollock, Clyfford Still, and Willem de Kooning. Rare as it is for an artist to be equally accomplished in both styles, Guston had the added challenge of creating figurative work in the late sixties, a period in which abstraction had become the new orthodoxy. His subjects are both deeply personal and humanistic, his works socially-committed documents of a violent age. As Guston himself explained, "So when the 1960's came along I was feeling split, schizophrenic. The war, what was happening to America, the brutality of the world. What kind of man am I, sitting at home, reading magazines, going into a frustrated fury about everything - and then going into my studio to adjust a red to a blue."

2011 Chargers: A Depth Chart Examination
During an offseason without team activity from the addition of free agents to even the signing of some of the club's own top players, it's difficult to discern just what the 2011 depth chart could look like in San Diego when week one kicks off. That doesn't mean we can't at least attempt to prognosticate a bit as to what the squad is going to look like position by position once that opening game against the Minnesota Vikings gets underway on the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks in 2001.
Obviously the quarterback position is cemented down with Philip Rivers running the show, but the running back spot could be pivotal for the team's offensive balance. It's tough to be too critical of Ryan Mathews' rookie campaign in 2010, but there is no doubt that both Mike Tolbert and incoming rookie Jordan Todman could be competing for carries in the upcoming season. It's highly improbably that Darren Sproles will be back in San Diego and that really shouldn't be much of a loss for the team to overcome. Running back by committee is the new philosophy league-wide and will likely find its root with the Bolts in 2011.
On the outside, the wide receiver spot could see some serious turnover with Vincent Jackson warranting the franchise tag, but both Malcom Floyd and Legedu Naanee unrestricted free agents. Naanee already has one foot out the door with his recent run-in with the law while the team would like to hang on to Floyd, but he could be coveted on the free agent market upping his contractual value significantly. The team did draft local product Vincent Brown in the third round of the NFL Draft, but he is likely to be only a slot target in the Bolts high-flying offensive attack. Trade rumors about Steve Smith of the Carolina Panthers remain on the radar moving forward, but a move like that would likely only be a short-term remedy.
Up front, the offensive line will be back in tact for the upcoming season, but that might not be as upbeat of a statement as it once seemed. The Bolts' big uglies surrendered 38 sacks in 2010 and did nothing to upgrade the unit as a whole. Cohesion and continuity of coming together as a group should allow the five men protecting Rivers to improve their play in the coming year, but the running game is where this group really needs to pave the way for success.
On the opposite side of the ball, the defensive line received the most notable upgrade to date in defensive end Corey Liuget via the first round of the NFL Draft. Liuget looks to aid a group that was thoroughly dominated by several ground-heavy offenses during the course of the 2010 season. His addition as well as some more scheme flexibility should allow this area to enjoy a nice rebound effort in the coming season off of a disappointing conclusion to last year. Keeping veteran Jacques Cesaire for depth purposes should be a priority in free agency and finding another body or two would be nice as well to provide the luxury of a rotation along the defensive front.
Although it is debatable just which area of the Chargers' team is the most in flux at this point, the linebacker level certainly has to rank somewhere near the top of that list. The inside linebacker position was decimated by injuries during the 2010 campaign and it seems that age has gotten the better of veteran Stephen Cooper. It's highly unlikely that he will be back this year leaving the re-signing of Kevin Burnett as priority number one. Second round pick James Mouton figures to compete for a starting job as well at inside backer as the Bolts try to get tougher up the middle to defend against a run-heavy AFC West division. As for pass rushers at outside linebacker, this is the put up or shut up year for Larry English and with very little attention paid to the position thus far in the offseason, the team must be banking on English coming through.
In the secondary, re-signing safety Eric Weddle clearly takes precedence over all other concerns after his impressive season a year ago. Veteran corners Quentin Jammer and Antoine Cason also performed admirably in 2010, but Jammer will be 32 years old in a little over a month and the team drafted Marcus Gilchrist in round two as well as Shareece Wright in round three to possibly be groomed as replacements down the line. The Bolts did rank tops in the league defending the pass in 2010 so bringing the same secondary back in tact can't be a bad thing for the coming year, but the additional depth will certainly be a nice perk for the club during the long NFL season.
In a nutshell it really seems that each and every position of need has been addressed in some form or fashion and that retaining the current members of the roster scheduled to become free agents should be at the top of the to-do list for the Bolts' front office. With more attention to detail in the game's third phase of special teams during the coming year, this could be a turning point for the Chargers as an organization.
Now it's your turn. Which running back do you expect to see the bulk of the workload during the 2011 season and why? Do you think Malcom Floyd will be back with the team this year and could Steve Smith be a key veteran piece to a deep playoff run? How do you see the newest member of the defensive front (Corey Liuget) fitting into the Bolts rotation? Will the linebackers or the secondary prove to be the weakest area for the team during next season? Can Larry English finally live up to his 1st round hype or is he doomed to be labeled a draft bust? What other pieces do you see the team pursuing when free agency is finally permitted to begin? Please fill up the comments section below with your thoughts!

Wow, what an excellent read Anthony!
I've held the WR as a team need for 2 years now, but the Chargers seem to have taken a different approach. Last year, they should have drafted one but were able to get by with signing Crayton. Floyd is pretty much injury prone at this point, and VJ and Leg's futures with the team are unclear at best.
It's true that Philip Rivers makes his teammates better, but it's somewhat surprising that the front office isn't showing him much love in the way of giving him premier targets to throw to. Steve Smith actually makes some sense, especially considering the Chargers' track record of signing/trading for veteran WRs like McCardell, Chambers, and even David Boston.
I'd like to see the team become more balanced on offense and take pressure off the defense. In shootout games, our secondary is going to be tested often and we don't really have any ballhawks out there. If there's one thing that concerns me, it's being able to get back to power football, and the defense's ability to create turnovers and negative plays. I think the special teams will be improved, and as I expected, the Chargers drafted a ton of guys who will play ST so I think that weakness is going to be shored up instantly.
The really talent Chargers teams of a few years ago were teams that had backup players who were Starting Caliber. Merriman as a rookie, Cromartie as the 3 CB, Shaun Phillips as a situational guy, Michael Turner as the 2nd RB, etc. I'm not sure we have that deep of a roster any longer so I think staying healthy is going to be key, along with young guys stepping up and proving themselves, especially the 2010 draft class which we haven't seen much of.
Free agency can turn everything around. It's so odd that everything is backwards this year. Without knowing which FA's are gonna be here and which are bid a found farewell, there's a lot of guess work to be done. Especially since the Chargers have so many they may lose.
Hopefully Matthews can stay healthy to carry most of the load. Talent-wise I think he's head & shoulders above Tolbert (no height pun intended there) and that's with Tolbert being pretty darn good. I'm hoping Todman gets plenty of work in mop-up time, but that may be about it for him unless Matthews continues with the Chargers string of 1st round injury problems.
I'd bet we see Floyd back more than Smith signed. I just don't think AJ is gonna pursue Smith unless he can get him cheap which probably won't happen. UDFA's may be the way AJ goes here. He does have a pretty good record in that area.
Liuget is gonna be a big help on run defense and also provide some help on pass. Despite everyone crying for a pass rushing DE, I think it was run defense that really needed the help. I'm hoping we see him in there for every down except when he needs a breather. This is the guy who may step up to the leadership role the front 7 needs.
Linebackers are gonna be the problem area. Big turnover looming especially in the middle (which may not be that bad of a thing) and no big time leadership stepping forward either. A big concern. If Weddle is signed, I think you have a pretty darn good secondary, a pretty good line. LB's?????
English needs to come thru big time this year or he will be joining Buster Davis on the great potential but no ability to stay on the field heap. Potential only gets you so far, eventually you have to produce or it's see ya later.

- The Basics of Current-Sensing Relays
- Protecting equipment from overcurrents
- Safeguarding equipment from undercurrents
- Preventing power outages from ground faults
- Current transformers
Understanding AC and DC current relays can help electrical professionals troubleshoot power quality problems more effectively
A range of manufacturing and production processes rely on current-operated relays to provide a continuously adjustable trip-current setting. They are able to protect mechanical apparatus from jam-up or other overloading conditions that result in measurable increases in motor current. Functionally, they sense current levels and provide an output signal when a specified current level is reached. Current-sensing relays are used to:
- Signal high-current conditions, such as a clogged grinder.
- Identify low-current conditions, such as a pump that has encountered a low-water condition. Sense the current a motor is drawing to feed the current to a programmable logic controller (PLC).
To meet the unique requirements of a diverse set of applications, a wide range of devices and options is currently available to designers, installers, and maintenance professionals, including plug-in style, base-mounted, DIN-rail mount, and donut-style. These types of devices offer the following capabilities:
- Sensing both AC and DC current — from milliamperes to several amperes.
- Sensing thousands of AC amperes with a current transformer (CT).
- Current setpoints can be fixed or adjustable.
- Input AC or DC.
- Analog output — voltage or current — or contact closure.
- Self- or looped-power units.
- Fixed or adjustable internal time delays.

It goes from purely technical input (e.g. training) via organisational development (focusing on an organisation's systems and physical assets, but also on its people, its culture and its ability to plan for the future) and institutional development (the strengthening of links and development of the environments within which organisations exist) to a broader process involving individuals and communities in poor countries, strengthening and building their understanding and knowledge of their own needs, entitlements and rights, and enabling them to organise themselves to respond to this understanding.
Style information: APC spells this term with a hyphen in between "capacity" and "building".

Protest organizer Angelo Carusone tells THR he would consider launching similar action against NBC over "Celebrity Apprentice."
Petition Background
Macy's has a special deal with Donald Trump. They invest in developing Trump's brand and sell his clothing line and fragrance at their locations. To this end, they have had major events at Macy's Herald Square location and they often feature and promote Trump in advertisements designed to celebrate the magic of Macy's.
Recently, Macy's CEO Terry Lundgren sent Donald Trump a letter touting how excited Macy's was to be working with Trump and promising to expand Trump's brand even further than it already is.
But, why is Macy's celebrating Trump?
Donald Trump engages in especially unpleasant, nasty and despicable behavior. He has:
- Long engaged in sexist behavior. Trump has a long record of personally attacking women he disagrees by calling them "unattractive," ugly or fat. He once sent a target a personal note telling her that she has the "face of a dog." Not even his own daughter is immune to Trump's sexism. While referring to his daughter, Trump observed: "She does have a very nice figure...if [she] weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."
- Hypocritically complained about jobs being shipped overseas to China, despite the fact that almost his entire clothing line sold at Macy's is made in China and other Asian nations.
- Use his public platform to deny the reality of climate change. Following Hurricane Sandy, Trump publicly declared: "The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."
- Perpetuated the racially charged birther conspiracy, repeatedly arguing that President Obama has been lying and was not born in the United States.
The list goes on. But the point remains, Macy's should dump Trump.
Macy's boasts about its social responsibility policy, which reads: "There is no shortage of talk about the obligation of public companies to be socially responsible to the people and communities where they do business. At Macy's, Inc., we hold those same beliefs – along with a belief that actions speak louder than words when it comes to helping tackle some of the toughest problems facing us today."
Indeed Macy's. Actions speak louder than words. So, act and dump Trump.

NC looks for jobless rate move as economy putters
RALEIGH, WAKE COUNTY - North Carolina workers are looking for news about the unemployment rate's latest move, even as the measure of joblessness loses some of its meaning.
The state Commerce Department on Friday releases the unemployment rate for August.
July's jobless rate increased slightly to 8.9 percent as cuts in the overall government workforce tempered private-sector employment gains. The higher jobless rate was the first month-to-month increase since January.
The national unemployment rate is now 7.3 percent, down from a peak of 10 percent during the recession and falling steadily.
The trend of falling unemployment rates has come in large part for a discouraging reason as more people stop looking for work. Once people without a job stop looking a job, the government no longer counts them as unemployed.

As we welcome the Red Sox back to Fenway, it's worth noting that the national pastime itself has suffered another brutal winter, and we're not referring to the weather. Steroids continue to plague the sport's image, and to claim more and more of its heroes. The economy, too, has been as kind to the game as a screaming Big Papi foul ball is to a slow-reacting fan's unprotected mug. Here, then, on the eve of Opening Day, are nine questions worth mulling over for the game we love.
1)Will we find out the rest of those 104 names?
Five years after implementing drug testing, and nearly a year and a half after the release of the Mitchell Report, the steroidal specter continues to haunt the game. One day, hopefully, we can pretend the Steroid Era was just a bad dream. But before we do, unfortunately, the other malefactors — the 103 players who, like Alex Rodriguez (whose name was leaked), tested positive for steroids in a union-negotiated anonymous exercise — need to be unmasked. All of them. "If you don't do that," wrote recent retiree Curt Schilling on his blog, "then the other 600–700 players are going to be guilty by association, forever." (Having said that: pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease don't be anyone on the Sox.)
2) Whither A-Rod?
For a guy so infamously preoccupied with what other people think of him, you'd assume Rodriguez would avoid photo shoots like the one accompanying his recent Details profile, in which he's seen smooching his own blue-lipped reflection in the mirror and lounging dreamily on a mattress. Of course, emasculating magazine spreads are the least of A-Rod's worries these days. The fallout from his steroid scandal may — may — end up being more or less contained: like teammate Andy Pettite (and unlike former teammate Roger Clemens), he admitted it up front and apologized. But add these latest revelations to his continuing legacy of postseason impotence, the ugly divorce, l'affair Madonna, the unflattering portrait in the new Joe Torre tell-all, and now, allegedly, a "connection" to Eliot Spitzer's madam. Suddenly the erstwhile superman is looking pretty humbled. (He's sure to be reminded of this every time he makes a plate appearance in Fenway this year.)
3)As newspapers fall faster than a Papelbon sinker, how will we continue to follow our favorite teams?
Here's the dilemma: blogs have exploded in popularity — and many of them are quite good, offering more insight and analysis than your daily fishwrap is willing or able to provide. But bloggers don't get the everyday locker-room access to players and coaches that newspapers do. Which is a shame. Because both reportage and smart analysis are crucial to appreciation of the game, and as papers continue to fold, it's the bloggers who could be best positioned to pick up the slack. If the Globe or Herald were ever to go online-only, would their press passes be revoked? Doubt it.

I am finding dead larvae. Still in the cells. Not capped. They are white, but not chalky, not mummified, not glistening. They appear to be dry (not wet and shiny) but not dried out either. The dead white larvae easily fall out of the cell. They look to be stunted - no longer worm-like larvae, but more like a sphere, as if the head only of what would have been the pupae is still present. I saw a worker removing one today, but there is not a collection of removed corpses anywhere. Most of the corpses are still in the cells.
I did find one that appears brown/black, swollen and slimy. But all the others fit the description above.
I have a month old top bar hive, and a three week old queen. No mentor. I would describe the capped cell pattern as somewhat spotty/shotgun.
The bees accepted my new queen three weeks ago. I see her and she appears fine. But I do see two eggs in some cells.
Thank you for any help!

WSSU Welcomes First Science Immersion Program Scholars
Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) has welcomed its first group of students into the Provost Scholars Science Immersion Program (SIP) that will support recruitment and retention of students in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.
Begun during the second session of summer school this year, the program includes a Summer Bridge Academy for incoming freshmen students who have an interest in the STEM areas and an academic coaching component that will support them throughout the school year. During the summer session, the seven students had courses in biology, general chemistry, pre-calculus and trigonometry. The classes were supplemented by math and science labs, study skills sessions and field trips. SIP students will continue the courses from the summer during the fall 2013 semester and can remain in the program for two years.
"The program is designed to engage incoming students by providing support through positive collaborations with their peers and faculty members," said Dr. Tennille Presley, assistant professor of physics. "The uniqueness of SIP is that students are involved in an extended period in the fundamental courses in STEM as a means of encouraging a deeper understanding of the critical aspects of the subject."
In addition to Presley, the other team leaders are Dr. Cheraton Love, freshman class dean, Dr. Jill Keith, department chair of life sciences, and Dr. Denise Johnson, associate professor and coordinator of the Master of Arts in Teaching-Middle Grades program. Students in this first session of the program are Devin Burch, Ariel Dickenson, Jessica Evans, Taran Flowers, Idella Kellam, Kalah Miller and Quartney Ross. Additional professors involved in the summer program were Dr. John Merle, Dr. John Yi and Dr. Frank Ingram with Bobby Garcia and Ronald Patterson, graduate students who are teachers in the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School System, conducting the math and science labs.
The program was developed through grants from the National Science Foundation and the American Association of Colleges and Universities

Meth lab discovered 600 feet from daycare
HAWKINS COUNTY, Tenn. - A tip to the Hawkins County, Tennessee Sheriff's Office led to a meth lab just a few hundred feet from a daycare center.
We learned that the meth lab was in the Bulls Gap community off of Northridge Circle. It's a calm, quiet neighborhood where some parents drop their children off for daycare. "It's a close community, very peaceful. Never had any problems like this before," said Discovery Days Childcare's director Connie Hodges.
What was quiet quickly became loud as the Hawkins County Sheriff's Narcotics Unit showed up to a home where they were tipped off about a meth lab inside. "They got confessions, they've been making meth there and have been for quite some time," said Hawkins County Sheriff Ronnie Lawson.
Police say they found a meth lab on the porch of the home. They then arrested the occupant, Donald Martin Rife, and his live-in girlfriend Jessica Lynn Daniels.
The meth lab was discovered in a home only 600 feet away from a child daycare center directly down the road.
The daycare director tells News 5 it frustrates her that someone would do something so dangerous that close to children. "It does bother me that people have a lot of nerve to do something dangerous around children, knowing that there are children around," said Hodges.
Lawson tells News 5 what bothers him most is that the couple was dumping the parts they were done with throughout the neighborhood. "That made it even more difficult because those children in the neighborhood could pick up some of that stuff," said Lawson.
Hodges says she still feels safe in the neighborhood because things like this could happen anywhere. "I still feel pretty safe here. We're safe, we would protect the children with our lives," said Hodges.
Sheriff Lawson tells us as of Friday both Rife and Daniels are in the Hawkins County Jail on a $75,000 bond.
Hodges tells us she's happy everything happened in the afternoon and the kids didn't have to see the police at the home.

Science Daily recently reported on a new study [1] that shows that intellectual curiosity is a good predictor of academic performance. A few days ago I published the post Liberal-Artsy people. Now I know that what I was talking about are people with intellectual curiosity! In the earlier post, I contrasted them with what I called "B.Sc." types, who are narrowly focused and are not interested in asides in math class about the connections with some concept and other concepts, stories about the discoverer of the concept, the meaning of the name of the concept, and so on.
So better names would be "IC people" instead of Liberal Artsy people and "NF people" (Narrow Focus people) instead of B.Sc. This is better terminology because it isn't the type of undergraduate degree they have that matters but their attitude toward knowledge of the world.
There are things to say about these concepts with respect to research mathematicians. I have known a good many over the years. (My advice to young people who want to do math research is: Hang around people who know more than you do.) My impression is that most of the very best mathematicians are IC people who are interested in all sorts of things, not just their branch of math.
Even so, some of the best mathematicians are narrowly focused. This has always been the case. Isaac Newton was evidently IC but Kurt Gödel was apparently NF. (He had no interest in things outside math. On the other hand, he did find a new model of general relativity, so he was willing to look at others parts of math besides logic.)
I have known some NF mathematicians. When I wanted to tell them about something they might say, "I have enough trouble keeping up with my field". The ones that I knew were mediocre and rarely published much beyond writing up their dissertation. I suspect that the famous NF mathematicians were simply brilliant enough to get away with being NF.
Perhaps the sort of NF student whose eyes glaze over when
- you mention Evariste Galois's tough and short life, or
- talk about how group theory can be used to classify crystals, or
- mention that "tangent" comes from the Latin word for "touching"
are doomed to the same mediocrity. But undoubtedly some of those NF students will turn out to do great things, and some of the IC students will wind up dilettanting through life and never coming close to achieving their potential.
Don't prejudge students.

1. 2009-- Cowboys drive the field with the ground game and score a td to take the lead with roughly 1-2 minutes remaining in the 4th.
2. 2010-- Romo knocked out early, looked good up until that point.
3. 2011-- 350 ish yards and 4 TDs. Missed Austin/Austin lost ball in lights, but drove the Cowboys back down the field in under a minute to put team in FG position-- first FG is good, JPP blocked the 2nd attempt.
4. 2012-- Pinky on the line
But I mean, hell, he could choke in the home opener. He's got it in him.

Man shot in Crosslake
The Crosslake Police Department reported that at approximately 6 p.m. Monday, June 3, law enforcement responded to a reported shooting at 17027 County Road 36 in Crosslake, the home of Larry and Susan Bolton.
Crosslake Police Chief Robert Hartman said that dispatch received a 911 call from a female stating there was a shooting, and the shooter was still at the scene.
The department reported that upon arrival, a 59-year-old man was taken into custody without incident. Hartman said there was no struggle, but the man refused to answer questions and asked for a lawyer.
A 31-year-old man was airlifted from the area shortly after with injuries to a leg. The two men were acquaintances, according to a press release.
Hartman said he believes the 31-year-old man was shot only once. The department could not report which hospital the man was airlifted to and stated the extent of his injuries were unknown as of Tuesday, June 4.
Hartman said both the Crosslake police and the Crow Wing County Sheriff's Department responded to the incident. The incident is still under investigation.
Hartman said it's the first shooting he's seen since he joined the department more than 18 years ago.
