Atlanta Mayor: Kasim Reed Leads Narrowly
When Atlantans went to the polls two weeks, 46% voted for Mary Norwood for mayor. Today, 46% of Atlantans support Mary Norwood for mayor according to a ...
When Atlantans went to the polls two weeks, 46% voted for Mary Norwood for mayor. Today, 46% of Atlantans support Mary Norwood for mayor according to a new poll, which is bad news for the city council member. Jim Galloway of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution explains:
SurveyUSA, conductor of the poll, gives former state senator Kasim Reed a nominal 49 percent to 46 percent advantage over Councilwoman Mary Norwood, within the survey's 4.5 percent margin of error.
Norwood is precisely where she was the week before the first round of voting on Nov. 3. Reed pulled 36 percent of ballots in the first round.
You can consider this week the last before voters begin to unplug for the Thanksgiving holidays. So the poll is significant. But its true importance -- and its accuracy -- is hard to gauge, simply because turnout for a vote five days after T-Day is likely to be so darned small, and thus, volatile.
What's happened is that the supporters of Lisa Borders, who placed third in the first round of voting, have flocked to Reed. It would be easy to explain that as a matter of racial politics: Borders and Reed are black, Norwood is white.
But, it's just as plausible that party is the key consideration. Reed hasn't just been picking up endorsements from key African-Americans such as Borders. He's also winning support from people like former Democratic governor (and current gubernatorial candidate) Roy Barnes, who is white.
Norwood is an independent. The new poll shows Democrats (many of whom do happen to be black) rallying behind Reed. Norwood was receiving 38% of the Democratic vote in a poll from SurveyUSA before the first round of voting (that poll correctly forecast the 46% of the vote she would receive). Today's SurveyUSA poll has her down to 30% with Democrats, even though voters have thinned the field to just two candidates.
Many observers, myself included, have framed this election as a test of whether Atlanta has changed enough demographically to elect a white mayor. In reality, though, the question is whether Atlanta is willing to elect a white person who lacks clear ties to the Democratic Party or much institutional support. When you put it like that, the real question might be how Mary Norwood is doing as well as she is.

Although single devices have been demonstrated, there has been little effort in using nanotechnology building blocks to create an innovative technology with higher density and new functionality. IMEC program participants will investigate the use of semiconducting wires, carbon nanotubes and spintronics and, at the same time, develop the metrology and theoretical approach required as a backbone for implementation of the new methodologies.
In the first phase of research, the potential of semiconducting wires will be studied. IMEC's fabrication process for making these vertical-pillar structures is now sufficiently mature to start evaluating their use in back-end-of-line (BEOL) processing, more precisely in the vias between the BEOL metal layers. The typical dimensions of the pillars (20nm to 100nm) match perfectly with state-of-the-art optical lithography, demonstrating an ideal link between evolutionary and revolutionary technologies. Applications may be possible in both optical and switching components.
Next, the research will extensively investigate the growth of carbon nanotubes. A main roadblock in this area is "chirality", or the variation in diameter and structure of the tubes.
A third key area of research will focus on spintronics, or electron spin. Electron spin is a viable candidate for replacing the role of the electron charge, as spin effects are very robust. The IIAP will identify roadblocks and explore opportunities of implementing spintronics in combination with silicon technology.
To support this research, the program will develop metrology guidelines and provide theoretical quantitative models which describe newly observed phenomena in nanoelectronics. This will help researchers understand matter at the nanometric scale. A synergy between the development of theoretical formalisms, modeling and experimental work is fundamental to addressing the nanoelectronic challenges.

Finnish Spitz Temperament
What's Good About 'Em,
What's Bad About 'Em
Finnish Spitz Temperament, Personality, Behavior, Traits, and Characteristics, by Michele Welton. Copyright © 2000-2016
The fox-like Finnish Spitz is lively and agile, quick and light on his feet.
He plays hard and enjoys vigorous exercise, especially in the snow. Without enough activity (physical and mental), this creative thinker will become bored and perhaps destructive.
He is very people-oriented and needs a great deal of companionship, especially from his favorite person. He doesn't like being left alone,and because of his extremely sensitive nature, he doesn't do well in an environment with frequent tension or loud voices.
The Finnish Spitz is sharp-eyed and keen of hearing and will immediately alert when he sees or hears anything unusual.
Conservative with strangers, he requires early and frequent socialization to ensure that his caution does not become suspicion or shyness. He also needs early physical handling as he often does not like being examined.
Typically bold with other dogs, he can be jealous and scrappy with those of the same sex and predatory with rodents and birds.
The Finnish Spitz learns quickly but is clever and independent and thus challenging to train.
These vocal dogs will greet you with throaty sounds of crooning, purring, and yodeling. They love to bark, and their barking pattern is high-pitched, piercing, and rapid (more than 150 barks per minute). If left outside unattended, they can drive neighbors up the wall.
If you want a dog who...
- Is medium-sized and looks like a furry orange-red fox
- Is lively and agile, quick moving and light on his feet
- Enjoys vigorous exercise and athletic activities
- Makes a keen watchdog
A Finnish Spitz may be right for you.
If you don't want to deal with...
- High energy level requiring plenty of exercise
- "Separation anxiety" (destructiveness and barking) when left alone too much
- Suspiciousness or timidity toward strangers when not socialized enough
- Potential aggression toward other animals -- chasing instincts
- Stubbornness (mind of his own)
- Emotional sensitivity to stress and loud voices
- Heavy shedding
- Extreme vocalness, including barking and yodeling
A Finnish Spitz may not be right for you.
- choosing the RIGHT breeder and the RIGHT puppy
- or choosing an ADULT dog from your animal shelter or rescue group – a dog who has already proven that he doesn't have negative traits
- training your dog to respect you
- avoiding health problems by following my daily care program in 11 Things You Must Do Right To Keep Your Dog Healthy and Happy
More traits and characteristics of the Finnish Spitz
If I was considering a Finnish Spitz, I would be most concerned about...
- Providing enough exercise and mental stimulation. Finnish Spitz MUST have regular opportunities to vent their energy and to use their busy minds to do interesting things. Otherwise they will become rambunctious and bored -- which they usually express by barking and destructive chewing.
- Separation anxiety. Finnish Spitz need a great deal of companionship and do not like being left alone for more than a few hours. They tend to express their unhappiness through destructive chewing and barking.
- Providing enough socialization. Standoffish by nature, Finnish Spitz need extensive exposure to people and to unusual sights and sounds. Otherwise their natural caution can become shyness or suspiciousness, which are difficult to live with.
- Animal aggression. Some Finnish Spitz are dominant or aggressive toward other dogs of the same sex. Many have strong instincts to chase and seize cats and other fleeing creatures. This can make for conflict if you own a cat. It may be much worse than that if you own a pet rabbit or hamster!
- Fence security. Some Finnish Spitz are clever escape artists who will go over or under fences in search of adventure. To keep your Finnish Spitz in, you may need higher fences than you might imagine for their small size. You may also need to sink wire into the ground along the fence line to thwart digging. Gates should have the highest quality locks.
Finnish Spitz cannot be trusted off-leash. They will take off -- oblivious to your frantic shouts -- after anything that runs.
- Mind of his own. Finnish Spitz can be stubborn and manipulative. Many Finnish Spitz are willful, obstinate, and dominant (they want to be the boss) and will make you prove that you can make them do things. You must show them, through absolute consistency, that you mean what you say.
To teach your Finnish Spitz to listen to you, "Respect Training" is mandatory. My Finnish Spitz Training Page discusses the program you need.
- Emotional sensitivity. Be honest...is there tension in your home? Are people loud or angry or emotional? Are there arguments or fights? Finnish Spitz are extremely sensitive to stress and can end up literally sick to their stomachs, with digestive upsets and neurotic behaviors, if the people in their home are having family problems. Finnish Spitz thrive only in a peaceful, harmonious home.
- Heavy shedding. Finnish Spitz shed a LOT. You'll find hair and fur all over your clothing, upholstery, carpeting, and under your furniture.
- Barking. Finnish Spitz are extremely vocal dogs, quick to sound the alarm at every new sight and sound. You have to be equally quick to stop them. If you have close neighbors, Finnish Spitz are not a good choice for you. For the same reason, Finnish Spitz should never be left outside in your yard, unsupervised. To make matters worse, many Finnish Spitz have intense, rapid, high-pitched barks that can set your teeth on edge.
To learn more about training Finnish Spitz to be calm and well-behaved, consider my dog training book, Teach Your Dog 100 English Words.
It's a unique Vocabulary and Respect Training Program that will make your Finnish Spitz the smartest, most well-behaved companion you've ever had.
Teaches your dog to listen to you, to pay attention to you, and to do whatever you ask him to do.
My dog buying guide, Dog Quest: Find The Dog Of Your Dreams, will teach you everything you need to know about finding a healthy Finnish Spitz. Health problems have become so widespread in dogs today that this book is required reading for ANYONE who is thinking of getting a purebred, crossbred, or mixed breed dog.
If you'd like to consult with me personally about whether the Finnish Spitz might be a good dog breed for your family, I offer a Dog Breed Consulting Service.
Once you have your Finnish Spitz home, you need to KEEP him healthy -- or if he's having any current health problems, you need to get him back on the road to good health.
My dog health care book, 11 Things You Must Do Right To Keep Your Dog Healthy and Happy is the book you need.
Raise your dog the right way and you will be helping him live a longer, healthier life while avoiding health problems and unnecessary veterinary expenses.
Please consider adopting an ADULT Finnish Spitz...
When you're acquiring a Finnish Spitz PUPPY, you're acquiring potential -- what he one day will be. So "typical breed characteristics" are very important.
But when you acquire an adult dog, you're acquiring what he already IS and you can decide whether he is the right dog for you based on that reality. There are plenty of adult Finnish Spitz who have already proven themselves NOT to have negative characteristics that are "typical" for their breed. If you find such an adult dog, don't let "typical breed negatives" worry you. Just be happy that you found an atypical individual -- and enjoy!
Save a life. Adopt a dog.

Date of Stay: July, 2008
Mesa RV Resort is under new ownership and management. We found the grounds to be beautifully manicured with flowers, trees and shrubs in abundance. The laundry / restrooms / showers were pristine and well maintained. The staff was friendly, helpful and worked diligently to assure a pleasant visit. The campground offered a variety of site amenities including "luxury" sites, which had privacy fences, patios, and propane grills ~ some had hot tubs! We chose a "Patio" site which consisted of a nice size concrete patio on a beautifully shaded lot. "Standard " sites were available which had a grassy area rather than a concrete patio. We visited over the July 4th holiday when they have their annual rubber duck race in the little brook that run through the park. We also attended the free cookout that evening. This park rates five stars in our book.
Date of Stay: March, 2008
The park is family owned and operated. We enjoyed our visit very much and loved the little lakes (ponds). We would stay there again.
Date of Stay: March, 2008
We have wintered in this park every year since 2005. The management and staff are very friendly and strive to make your stay a pleasant experience. The park has an activities director and many, many events are scheduled throughout the winter months. The park is an over 55 community. Monthly, seasonal and yearly rates are offered.

No voter I.D.
Why should you vote no on the voter I.D. amendment?
First and foremost, legislating by constitutional amendment is just wrong.
Second, as it is written, this proposed constitutional revision creates extreme voter hardships for seniors who have no drivers licenses, for absentee voting, for deployed military personnel and others. They are effectively disenfranchised due to the regulatory maze this ill advised, poorly constructed revision creates.
Third, it locks in technology (photo ID) that may be obsolete in five to 10 years.
Fourth, it creates a serious financial burden for cities and counties.
A no vote is not a vote against better verification procedures.
Those changes can and should be worked out in the legislative process. Let's make our legislators do their job. We must not restrict the rights of something so essential to our democracy.

Reader Beware: This post is not meant to be judgmental about anyone's fitness level, size, weight, or shape! It is simply a personal way I have connected the dots about eating, exercise, fitness, overall health, and my own body size.
I'm frequently asked, "How do you stay so fit and eat so much vegan cheese?" (Read on and you'll learn the truth!) The fact is, I wasn't always so fit. Yes, I'd been vegan for decades, always exercised some, and probably ate better than the average person. But this is a post about personal honesty.
Right now, I have an image in my head of the timeline of my life after age fifty, a milestone I hit almost 6 years ago. I see the hands on the clock spinning backwards — fifty is the age from which I started getting younger again. I know, this sounds like fantasy. But this imagined timeline looked different as I was approaching my fiftieth birthday. I wasn't sure what the half-centennial actually held in store for me, but I had a whiff of the briny flavor of my own mortality, a sense that the countdown was about begin. As healthy as I was, I assumed I still had a good many more years ahead of me, but after 50 years of life seemingly moving forward, developing and unfolding, I now had a sense of The Long Wind-Down. After all, the AARP was now sending me literature – how dare they! – and I was beginning to have little issues like lower back problems, stiffness in the morning, creaky knees. Oh, and did I mention my mommy pouch? Here's a picture of me at my 50th birthday celebration, all dressed up and partying it up, but please take note of my midriff.
I sure look like I'm having a good time, but wait — was I really supposed to be drinking a mojito with a bun in the oven? Oh, I forgot– that wasn't a baby filling out my cocktail dress. Maybe I didn't look too bad for someone who's fifty, but let's be honest. I didn't look great. I looked the way we expect people to look at that age. After all, how much can you ask of a woman who's had three kids, worked all her life, and didn't have time to be a gym rat-ess?
That Christmas, my wonderful but guilty brother (guilty by virtue of being ten years younger) thrilled me by presenting me a photobook he had created of my 50th birthday bash, a book that allowed me to relive that wonderful night. Despite my genuine appreciation, I had to ask him one question: why had he not photoshopped out my muffin top? Honestly, that is about all I noticed as I flipped through the pages – I may have felt beautiful and glowing that night, but now reviewing the pictures, I had trouble looking at myself below the neck. With all that echnology could do, why had he immortalized me as Rubenesque? But to make matters worse, I was resigned to the fact that despite my relatively healthy vegan diet, running the trails with my dog and generally maintaining an active lifestyle, I was probably just going to have that "jelly belly" – as my family called it – the rest of my life. I figured that by the time I was sixty, most people would expect me to look that way, so I just had to wait another decade and my body would meet the expectations of the most critical eye. And there were those loose styles that would cover up most of it. Forget those silly tight workout gear designed for hard bodies; I would just wear "age-appropriate" clothing.
At this point, I want to make it clear that I am not a member of the "Love Your Body" movement. I do love my body. And that's why I want it to be as healthy as it can be. Because whether it's politically correct or not, your BMI does affect your overall health. But understand that it's a journey for all of us (even for me now), and I pass no judgment on others at different points along that journey.
However, something remarkable happened that very same Christmas with another present, a gift that set in motion the hands of a clock that started to tick backwards. After gazing disappointedly at myself in my brother's photos, I opened the gift from my husband. At first, his gift seemed no better; in fact, I momentarily wanted to walk out on him as I pulled out of an envelope a gift certificate for a membership at a local gym. What was he trying to suggest? Besides, I was through with gyms; I was through with gym culture, and had been for 25 years. I much preferred the fresh air of the great outdoors while bonding with my dog, Chloe, on my "runs" – or at least I called them that. And who was he to suggest I needed to start working out – his paunch was bigger than mine!
But I went, anyway, mainly so as not to waste the money. You probably know the end of the story already – girl goes to gym, girl gets fit, but girl doesn't meet boy. She just loses her paunch. But that's not the real end. Losing the paunch was just a perk to the true gift: better health and fitness. Don't fear; this isn't a post on how to get a great workout, nor is there a link at the end to the ten secrets to super fitness that ends up costing $99. And I don't pretend to be the super athlete-author who is never tired, disillusioned or suffers menopausal symptoms. In fact, I get exhausted just reading those types of books written by people who seem to be doing ultra-marathons as they pen their pages. No, it's about how I, a long-time vegan who thought she was super healthy, finally took a good look at her own lifestyle and eating habits, and realized that they could use some improvement.
Okay, so I started going to that gym. It happened to be a CrossFit gym, which meant the workouts were really tough. I'd be wiped out by noon and wanted to take a nap. I started to notice that I felt better on certain days than others, and began to pay attention to what I was eating on those days. Turns out those were the days I was eating whole foods. Real food. In other words, unprocessed fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. I noticed a huge salad for lunch kept me awake all afternoon, while take-out Chinese food had me falling asleep by 4 pm. Instead of coffee and toast for breakfast, a green smoothie kept me powered through the morning workout. But the funny thing was that the fitter I became, the more I naturally gravitated towards nutrient-dense foods. Mainly greens. Without thinking much about it, veggies became my "center of the plate", along with a healthy dose of other whole foods. And the more I ate this way, the more I wanted to continue eating this way. Vegan junk food simply lost its appeal. Okay, as chef and a foodie, I won't pass up an opportunity to try something that is really creative and delicious (as long as it's vegan!), and I continue to enjoy chocolate, wine, and other finer things of life – but just not everyday. How about cheese? That, too! Just not every day. (While my Artisan Vegan Cheeses are unprocessed, whole foods, they are higher in fat than I like to eat on a daily basis.) But that loaded vegan pastry case? It just doesn't hold the same temptation anymore.
And what happened? Here's the usual cycle: you're tired, so you eat sugar and drink coffee. You feel like crap, and later you crash, and you're tired again. So you eat more sugar and drink more coffee. Then you feel like…well, you know. Here's the other cycle: you exercise and sweat, and you feel the good sort of tiredness, and you want a green smoothie to refresh you. You feel great, so you want to move your body some more, and then you crave a big plate of greens, and then you feel great, and you exercise some more…Really. It was as easy and natural as that. I didn't "diet." Becoming fitter and healthier was never about denial. I didn't go about my day thinking about all the things I couldn't have. I just didn't crave those things anymore. It may sound weird and hard to believe, but I really believe that if you eat the things you are meant to eat, you will simply no longer crave the stuff you weren't supposed to eat in the first place. I know that when I travel or go through a period where I "party" more than usual and my diet reverts to more refined and processed foods, my cravings for less healthy foods are triggered again. But when I start my day with fresh fruit, nuts and veggies, I feel so good that I want only more of the same. And when you start getting fit and healthy, you naturally want to get fitter and healthier because IT FEELS SO DARN GOOD. In fact, it becomes FUN. The road may seem bumpy and steep in the beginning, but I swear – it gets easier and easier as you progress.
Studies show that fit people have an easier time keeping weight off. Studies also show that you can continue to increase and maintain muscle mass into old age. And the more muscle mass you have, the more your body becomes an efficient calorie-burning machine. Have you ever complained about the skinny friend who can eat so much? Well, there's science behind it. Muscle burns more calories than fat. Two people weighing the same with different BMIs will have different caloric needs to maintain their weight (the lower the BMI, the higher the caloric intake). So it's important not only to change your diet, but to exercise. The good news about exercise is that its effects outlast the time it took to do it, as your body will continue to burn calories at a higher rate 0for hours afterwards.
Am I "there" yet? No. I still eat junk every now and then. I still get tired at times. I still look in the mirror and wonder why, if my internal time clock is ticking backwards, I don't look 44. Yes, in addition to a few more wrinkles and needing to go to the colorist more often, I've had other things I attribute to getting older. But my lower back pain, creaky knees, those are things of the past. And I'm sure if I cleaned up my diet even more, I'd get even healthier. In other words, I've come a long way, but "optimal health" is a goal I'll have to continue working toward.
Last year, on my 55th birthday, my husband and I did the Tough Mudder in Tahoe (yes, he's cleaned up his act a bit, too). The Tough Mudder is a 12-mile obstacle course requiring endurance, agility, strength, and the courage to be electroshocked and covered in mud. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday. And take a look. The mommy paunch is gone. And what's the moral? If I can do it, so can you. And if you have a story to share, I'd love to hear it!

As Shadows EncroachMature
An eighteen year old member of the citizenry of Blackrock, by the name of Logan Matthews leaned against the garden wall of his habitual residence. His gaze perused the street his abode was situated on, taking in every minute detail. They passed over the weeds poking through cracks in the pavement, the small puddles dotted about the road, the cat which lay asleep on a neighbour's wall, the cars belonging to the other inhabitants, and all else present.
His thumb flicked down on the lighter in his right hand and a flame sprouted up. Logan did not partake in the habit of smoking; he simply had a fondness for fire. Some saw it as a negative trait, claiming it would only lead him to trouble. Others accepted it as a habit, and we are all in possession of habits.
Letting the flame die with a sigh, Logan moved back inside his home. He trudged up the staircase and entered the bathroom. Moving to the mirror, he stared into its depths. A slim figure in possession of wavy black hair stared back with sharp, piercing blue eyes. Logan was not a particularly strong build of frame, his body leaning more toward an athletic style. He splashed water from the sink over his face and watched in the reflective glass as it trailed down his skin, droplets accumulating on his chin and falling back to the white porcelain. A droplet ran from his left eye down his cheek and fell to join the rest of the water; lending the appearance that Logan was crying.
Casting his thoughts forward to the following day; Logan wondered if this one would be much better than the last. For four years, their family had been relocating as his father received new jobs. Seven change of houses in four years was not the most pleasant experience, as Logan had discovered. Having to start over in a new school, knowing no one, was tough. And it would all begin again the next day. Maybe it would be slightly easier this time as it was the first day back after summer holidays. But somehow, Logan doubted it would.
"Logan!... Dinner is ready!" his mother called from downstairs.
"I'll be down in a minute!" Logan called back. He stared at his face a moment longer, and the towelled his face dry. With heavy footsteps, he made his way downstairs and into the kitchen dining room. His parent's and younger sister Chrissie, aged thirteen, sat at the table. A steaming hot plate of spaghetti bolognaise sat in front of Logan's vacant seat, which he took.
Idly twirling strands of spaghetti around his fork, Logan stared absently into space, trying to source some form of appetite. His mother noticed his lack of food consumption as she leaned across and touched his hand.
"Logan dear, why don't you eat something? It's not going to do you any good if you don't".
As Logan struggled to think of an adequate reply, his father stepped in.
"Maria dear", he addressed his wife, "the boy is fine. I'm sure it's merely nerves at having to start over again in another new school. Son, I know it's hard, our constant moving about, but you must try and not let it get you down". Logan nodded.
"But Maurice", Maria stared at her husband, "he must still eat. Otherwise he may become weak and faint. It could be detrimental to his health".
"He knows that dear. Leave him be". Rather than sitting there listening to his parents' discussion about his eating habits, Logan rose and left the table. He made his way up to his room, his worries about the following day deepening. If his parents noticed how he hated the relocating, it must have been blatantly obvious.
He fell back onto his bed, sprawling on the Liverpool bed-sheets. He stared at the ceiling, wondering if he could not just disappear into it and escape from the difficulties of life. But he knew that such a feat was impossible. He heaved a sigh and closed his eyes. Images blasted his vision; possible courses tomorrow could follow, possible situations he might find himself in, and a variety of other images.
A knock came on his door and Chrissie entered. The girl slowly walked over to Logan's bedside and sat on the edge, staring at her brother.
"You're really afraid of starting again aren't you?" she asked. Logan nodded his acquiescence with her statement. "There's no need to be really, Logan. Think of it as an adventure, as if you were stepping into the unknown. In a sense, you are. It will all be unfamiliar to you, but it's your job to contend with that, and overcome any obstacle that faces you".
Logan sat up and looked his sister in the eye. She was so mature for her age, and had these remarkable insights into things which should be beyond her comprehension. He pushed himself up and hugged her.
"Thanks sis".
"You're welcome". With that she got up from the bed and left his room. Logan returned to his musings. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad after all.

My Sister is Engaged!
This week my sister called me to tell me some wonderful news: She is engaged!
Just when I thought my wedding planning days were over, here I am, the member of a wedding party – my sister's wedding party. She has asked me to be her man of honor. I am so excited. All the things I loved about planning a wedding I will get to experience all over again, with her. And all the things I hated, well, those I'll leave to her and her alone. HAHA.

THE ATHEIST'S COMPLAINT:When did Noah enter the ark? Genesis 7:7-10 says it was seven days before the flood, while Genesis 7:11-13 says it was on the day that the flood began. Is there a contradiction?
RESPONSE:It would seem quite silly for the Bible writer to make two contradictory statements in so close a proximity to one another. The questioner perceives that these texts contradict one another for two reasons, 1) because he has failed to read the text carefully, and 2) because he is seeking to find contradiction, which in turn, causes the careless reading mentioned.
Notice, between verses 7-10, we are plainly told that Noah and his family were in the ark seven days before the ..waters of the flood were upon the earth. Does that mean Noah entered the ark seven days before it began to rain? No, that is the questioners assumption of what the text says. From verse 11-13, it is evident that Noah and his family entered the ark on the same day when the rain began. I suggest, and the Bible text reveals, that the whole surface of the earth was not instantaneously flooded, but that the waters prevailed upon the land in a steady progression which took seven days in total, at which time ...the waters of the flood were upon (ie. covering) the earth.
There is no contradiction.

LE BOURGET, France (AP) Airbus CEO Tom Enders defended government financing for the euro11 billion ($15.24 billion) A350 XWB program on Tuesday, claiming the European planemaker is seeking a "level playing field" with competitor Boeing Co.
A funding row over the A350 XWB, designed to compete with Boeing's hot-selling 787, could re-ignite an old trade dispute over alleged large commercial aircraft subsidies awaiting a ruling by the World Trade Organization. The U.S. and EU both accuse each other of providing billions in illegal subsidies to the companies.
In a news conference at the Paris Air Show, Enders confirmed the development costs of the program would be "around euro11 billion," of which 30% to 33% could be financed by reimbursable loans from European governments.
He said Airbus needs the financing to "level the playing field with our competitor."
The United States says EU subsidies have enabled Airbus to capture long-standing Boeing customers. The EU counters that Boeing receives U.S. federal and state tax breaks, development funding and grants, as well as a large amount of military contracts.
The four European countries that produce Airbus jets failed to agree financing at a meeting on Monday because the fourth nation — Spain — did not show up.
Enders tried to squash suggestions that this was due to a problem with Spain, saying: "From Airbus' point of view I do not see any conflict with the Spanish government."
French Transport Minister Dominique Bussereau said a decision should be reached within a month.

As the nation continues to mourn the horrendous tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary and contemplate implications for school safety, NAESP joined the nation's leading experts from the research and school communities in a call for greater support for programs focused on mental health and student well-being. Coordinated services in mental health and school safety must be funded at the national, state, and local levels to grant schools access to programs that provide students with direct support for health, well-being, and safety.
NAESP believes that there should be a strong collaborative relationship between the school, the community, and local service providers. The community school partnership is a unique and vital feature of American education and there is a need to strengthen partnerships and direct services for health and wellness in every school. Principals are too familiar with the issues that led to the tragedy at Sandy Hook. Working with parents and the local community, principals are best positioned to consistently address the multitude of health, safety, social, emotional, and educational needs that are components of every child's success.
Going forward, the Association will advocate for community-based mental health programs that bring together local law enforcement, schools, and other key community stakeholders to create a system that responds to student mental health concerns and potential threats to community safety. Schools need access to the appropriate personnel and programs to establish positive connections to the community. Read the statement.

The History of Cinema in Nepal dates back to 2008 (Bikram Era) when the first ever made Nepali Feature Film titled "Satya Harishchandra" was produced from Kolkata, India.
"Aama" (mother) was of course the first Nepali Film produced in Nepal in 2021 B.E. It was produced by the Information Department of Government of Nepal. Shiva Shankar Manandhar (renowned radio singer and music composer) and Bhuvan Thapa (Theatre Artist) made their debut as the lead players in the movie. The film had Hira Singh Khatri as its director and V. Balsara was the music composer.
The end of 2023 B.E. saw another Nepali Film "Maitighar"(Maternal home) produced for the first time under the private banner - Sumonanjali Films Pvt. Ltd. This was a first full pledged feature film in Nepal; Famous Indian Film Artist Mala Singh played a pivotal role in the film. C.P Lohani was her co- star who became latter her life partner in real life. B.S.Thapa directed the film. The veteran music maestro Jaidev scored music for the film, Lata Mangeshkar, Nightingale of India, sang for the first time a Nepali song, which was penned by none other than the late King Mahendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev (M.B.B.S). Other veteran Indian Singer who did lend their voices in the film were Asha Bhosle, Usha Mangeshkar and Manna Dey. Nepali singers like Prem Dhoj Pradhan, Narayan Gopal, C.P. Lohani and Aruna Lama also sang for the film. The film had friendly appearances of veteran Sunil Dutta and comedian Rajendra Nath.
The Information Department of Government of Nepal continued film making for sometime and they were, "Hijo Aaj Bholi" in 2024 B.E. and Parivartan in 2028 B.E. Government of Nepal established the Royal Nepal FIlm Corporation in 2028 B.E. "Man Ko Bandh" was the first film produced by the Corporation Prakesh Thapa was the director of the film Nati Kaji and Shiva Shanker were the music directors. Amber Gurung scored background music. Salyan K.C and Sushma Shahi were the lead players. The film was premiered in 2030 B.E. in kathmandu. "Man Ko Bandh was followed by "Kumari" in 2034, "Sindoor" in 2037 and "Jeevan Rekha" in series. The success of these films opened up avenue for the private parties to enter into filmmaking as industrial endeavor.

Wall Street's rebound offers little direction
Page Tools
The Australian market looks likely to open reasonably flat tomorrow as it awaits further direction from Wall Street.
More than $40 billion was wiped off the market last week when it reacted to US inflation and interest rate concerns.
US stocks rebounded on Friday from their four-day slide, after a Government report showed that the economy lost fewer jobs last month than forecast. Energy stocks such as Exxon Mobil and Valero Energy led the recovery, with crude oil prices stabilising after a five-day slump.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 5.21 points (0.1 per cent) at 10,292.31. The Nasdaq Composite Index gained 6.27 points (0.3 per cent), rising to 2090.35. The S&P 500 rose 4.41 points (0.4 per cent) to 1195.90.
The marginal rises give little direction for Australia's market tomorrow, after it dived more than 4 per cent last week.
AMP Capital Investors' head of investment strategy, Shane Oliver, expected nervousness to remain in the market and that it would open flat or up to five points higher.
"I think we could see a few more weeks of volatility, but we should move higher again by the end of the month and be pushing records again at the end of the year," he said. Mr Oliver said the Australian market remained good value and the trigger for last week's sharp decline would dissipate.
Oil fell by more than $US4 a barrel last week, to close on Friday at $US61.84 ($A81.80).
CommSec chief equities economist Craig James estimated that the Australian sharemarket would open 10 to 15 points up tomorrow.
"There's going to be some bargain hunters out there, particularly for resources stocks, which are offering very good value at the moment," he said. Last week's sharp decline was the "correction we had to have".

The outcome of the Sixers 104-94 loss to the Lakers last night never seemed to be in doubt. Even with a huge game from Kyle Korver, who broke out of his monumental shooting slump, wasn't enough to keep the Sixers in the game.
Kobe controlled this game pretty much from the get-go. His teammates were unspectacular, which shouldn't shock anyone. But he's a superstar, and superstars win games in the NBA. The Sixers' budding superstar, Andre Iguodala, attacked the rim all night long, but couldn't do much else. He finished with 19 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Korver is the player of the game, 29 points on 10-18 shooting, 5-9 from three including one that was from about 8 feet behind the three-point line with 20 seconds left on the shot clock. He also chipped in with 8 rebounds.
The Sixers are in Denver Tuesday night to take on Allen Iverson and the Nuggets. This game is going to be fun to watch. Iguodala and Miller should be taking Boykins and Iverson down to the post, if George Karl decides to play zone, a rejuvenated Korver should light it up from the outside. I don't have any hard feelings for Iverson, I don't really see it as his fault that the Sixers traded him, but I can't root for him. This is a game I'd like to see the Sixers win, I think it would be big for Iguodala's development to see him beat his former teammate.

New Haven, Conn. -- Even small epileptic seizures can trigger widespread abnormal signals in brain networks leading to loss of consciousness, according to new findings by a Yale researcher.
"We've known for a long time that the temporal lobe misfires during seizures," said Hal Blumenfeld, M.D., assistant professor of neurology and neurobiology at Yale School of Medicine and lead author of the study, "but we were amazed to discover that the temporal lobe also causes the rest of the brain to malfunction. That's why patients lose consciousness."
"Loss of consciousness during seizures often causes serious motor vehicle accidents, injuries, and falls in patients with epilepsy," he added. "The hope is that we can interrupt the process and prevent unconsciousness."
Blumenfeld focused his study on patients with seizures in the temporal lobe, the most common form of epilepsy. He and his colleagues used single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to view changes in brain activity during seizures. He also analyzed videotapes of patients during seizures to determine how their behavior was related to imaging changes.
The study found that in patients who lost consciousness during seizures, there were abnormal signals scattered across brain images like a fireworks display. In contrast, patients who had seizures but did not lose consciousness had localized increases confined to the temporal lobe.
"These results may help us target new treatments, such as brain stimulation, to prevent spread of abnormal activity outside the temporal lobe," Blumenfeld said. "Understanding the network abnormalities leading to loss of consciousness during seizures could also help solve an even more fundamental question -- what is the relationship between normal brain activity and conscious thought?"
The senior author was Susan Spencer, M.D., of Yale. Co-authors included Edward Novotny Jr., M.D., I George Zubal, Kelly McNally, Susan Vanderhill, A. LeBron Paige, Richard Chung, Kathryn David, and Andrew Norden, fromYale; Rik Stokking from the University Medical Center, Rotterdam, and Colin Studholme from the University of California at San Francisco.

Raoul asked: Are there any good websites or books out there that explain in detail how to calculate a standardized mortality ratio (SMR) with poisson regression using external rates? I find that the STATA manuals do not contain a lot of information regarding this topic, any suggestions? ---- I wrote, among other things: You may proceed from here to -poisson-; it requires the expected number of deaths: . gen edeaths = pyrs*mrate . poisson _d exposure(edeaths) , irr ---- - and that was wrong. The -poisson- command should be: . poisson _d , exposure(edeaths) To obtain the SMR, use -lincom- after -poisson-: . lincom _cons , irr I hope this was not too confusing.

In God We Trust…ROLL TIDE!
In a political pissing contest with President Obama, who recently mistakenly referred to "E Pluribus Unum" as the slogan for America (changed to "In God We Trust" in 1956), the Republican-led House of Representatives voted 396-9 to reaffirm "In God We Trust" as the nation's motto.
This waste of time and resources to prove a point, combined with recent and ongoing misbehavior throughout the government, has led me to justify a hopeless goal full of hopeful desires for America. If the national motto is up for debate, then I propose changing it to the rally chant from the University of Alabama: ROLL TIDE!
If you want to learn about the true Christian values we claim this country was built upon, then you have to go to a place where time passes slower and change in culture lags 10 to 20 years behind the rest of society. Travel deep enough into the farmland and you will find dial up Internet and, believe it or not, original Christian values: treat others as you want to be treated and let the Lord work.
When you look at the message behind the ROLL TIDE chant you get a better understanding of what it used to mean to be an American. Fight for what is right, never give up, never surrender, take pride in yourself, take pride in those who stand among you, and give the respect you expect from others…ROLL TIDE!
At least once in your life, spend a day at a BAMA game. In the parking lot you will find diehard fans in high-end and low-end motor home game-mobiles. You will see hairspray loving women holding those plastic-but-looks-like-porcelain plates sitting in a camouflaged folding chair in front of a red tent with a plastic chandelier hanging from the apex. Inevitably she'll be yelling at her underage daughter, "Hay! Why are you drankin' out of that Styrofoam cup? Put it in plastic and stop actin' like you ain't got no class!"
Extreme analogy, yes. But the fact of the matter is that ROLL TIDE isn't about the win or the loss, or even the game of football itself. ROLL TIDE is about recognizing that we are all members of the same community, and that we ultimately all want the best for one another. ROLL TIDE means pushing yourself to exceed what you're capable of because it is possible and not settling for anything less simply because you can get away with it.
I am not a fan of football, or Alabama for that matter, but I have spent enough time in the southern farmland and river swamps to know how to survive off of the land, and enough time in the city to know that there are differences in cultures and communities throughout the world.
I will own my bias. I was raised in the south and brought up with "core southern values." But I have also traveled the country enough to know that the same rules that apply in Alabama do not apply in New York. Some laws in Nebraska are pointless in Florida. There are times when we are fifty states and there are times when we are one country, but that does not mean that we have to be a huge collective of societies and communities that all believe and support the same ideas and theologies. That itself would be a little anti-American!
Being isolated as a country has further hindered our ability to develop into a better civilization. Geographically speaking, America is like Europe, except instead of independent countries, America is composed of interlaced states. However, while European countries like Germany, Italy, France and England competed to be better than one another, our American states began as equals. We Americans never had to compete against one another to improve our cultural philosophies or further technology and standards of living.
I am not suggesting that the United States should dissolve its union or start trying to be like Europe. Instead, I am proposing that we Americans start living up to our own potential. I propose we pledge to live our own teachings, to hold ourselves accountable for our actions equal to that of our neighbors. We should strive to take pride in all that we do, speak with conviction and stand up for what is right for all people regardless of their station in life.
We are at a cultural crossroads where the differences between what Christians claim the Bible says is right and wrong and what modern society claims is acceptable or unjustifiable intersect. It is unfortunate that neither side seems willing to work towards an agreement that would allow both sides to live harmoniously together, but more so that neither side seems to remember that we are all on the same team to begin with.
Our fights as Americans, between the left and right, Christians and Gays, blacks and whites and Hispanics….these fights we have with one another are pointless. We are all AMERICANS! We are on the same team. And we need to be capable and willing to stand toe-to-toe and shoulder-to-shoulder with one another as countrymen in whatever fight or battle we find ourselves in order to make our country—our collective—a better place for all Americans. ROLL TIDE!

It states you have a two year contract with a pro-rated cancellation charge. You also agreed to let them pay any monies owed them from the payment method you have on file with them. You also agreed to promptly return their equipment at YOUR expense or be charged for it.

Celeriac nettle soup.
A really tasty soup.
We had a week or two of really warm weather - enough to get the birches fully leafed out - but things have cooled off again. Enough to have to worry about apples, cherries and plums (and bilberries), which are in full flower - with possible night frosts, and no pollinators about, cos it's too cold all of a sudden.
And our wild veggies have arrived.
So far, I've picked lots (LOTS) of young nettles (Urtica dioica). Some folks over here like to pick them when they're really teeny tiny (1-2" tall), but I like mine a bit larger: lazy as I am I get to fill my basket in next to no time, where they have to pick for an hour or two to get as much greens.
You need gloves to pick'em, at least if you pick lots, at least if you don't want tingly fingers well into next week. It's of course possible to use scissors or a knife to cut the stalks, but at this time of year they're still soft and rather easy to just break off. Nettles are a yarn crop, and later in the year those scissors are a must, if you want longer leafy stalks to dry for tea, or fully ripe seeded stalks to dry for their seeds.
There's not too much moving protein on them at this time of year, but still, it's a good idea to put them into a sinkfull of cold water, possibly with a little salt added. That'll get all the various spiders, larvae and other manyleggeds to come out of hiding, within about 10 minutes or so.
Then, put a wooden spoonful at a time (of the nettles, not the various proteins!) into boiling water and let the nettles boil until the leaves are limp and very dark green and the stalks are a light yellowish green. That's when they lose their sting.
Next, take that spoonful of limp nettles out of the kettle with boiling water and put it somewhere for later cutting, when it has cooled off.
Do the next wooden spoonful, and the next, and the next, until all your nettles are done.
Go do something else for an hour or two, and then cut your nettles into very tiny bits. I have a cool 5-blade round cutting thingy which is impossible to find - lemmesee: oooh. It's a "Ritter Schneidboy", and it's a rarity, nevermind that the same cutter, with another name, has been sold in one or the other of our local TV-shops within the last 10 years - or so I'm told. I got mine from my grandma, and I expect it's an original, from the 1960s.
Larger nettle bits feel rough in the mouth, so really try to get things tiny. I expect that a vitamix, or whatever other fast way you have to really mush up largish amounts of food, would work too.
I freeze my nettles in small 2 dl (½ pint) freezer jars, and, once frozen, transfer them to plastic baggies. One such frozen nettle thingy per soup is just about right.
Yummy soup
The stock: put some nice bone bits (perhaps 500 g / 1 lb) with a few of the too-tough onion skins that you usually throw into the compost, about 10 black peppers, one laurel leaf, the shavings etc. of one celeriac (that's the root of celery) into a suitable pot. Cover with water, add a dash of vinegar and 1 teasp. salt. Let simmer for 15 minutes, and, cos you're in a hurry, strain the liquid into your soup pot and add more water'n'salt to your bone pot. Bring to a boil again and let simmer on and off until you need more stock.
The soup: add the cut-up celeriac, one frozen cube of chopped-up boiled nettles, all the tomatoes that you bought a week ago which aren't quite bad yet (mmm. Nicely ripe tomatoes.) (say about a dozen). Also add a dash of butter or a tablespoon or three of the drippings from the bacon you fried a week or three ago. Throw in a chopped-up smallish young cabbage (it's much milder in taste than winter-stored cabbage), add a pint jar of frozen sweet pepper strips, and add any further veggies you fancy (go slow on the taters and carrots, though, they're just simple carbs). Put in one or the other meat - for instance half a kg of bratwurst, or whatever you like (I like a handful of chopped-up metwurst for meat, in my soups and stews, but the metwurst has too strong a taste for this celeriac (wow!) soup.). Let things simmer for perhaps half an hour to an hour.
I also boil'n'chop'n'freeze the young tops of fireweed (Epilobium angustifolium) and the young leaf of goutweed (Aegopodium podagraria). They, too, do well in one or the other soup or stew, at one 2 dl frozen cube per potful - you can do more than one cube in one pot, but I wouldn't do just one sort then - one fireweed plus one nettle or one goutweed plus one nettle would be just fine.

The best 4K & 5K displays for Mac
Expedia Stories June 25, 2012
The Wall Street Journal reported that travel-recommendation website Orbitz discovered that those of us who own a Mac are spending as much as $20 to $30 more a night on hotel rooms than PC users on average. That is a whopping 30 percent difference, and the smart folks over at Orbitz are looking to take advantage by changing what listings they show Mac users.
According to the WSJ, Orbitz has a new platform that tracks its visitors habits to recommend a room to match their spending habits, which can be oh-so expensive for those who own a Mac. The company is currently experimenting with a platform that shows hotel rooms matching a Mac user's spending taste a little better, but Orbitz executives stressed that it is not showing the same room to different people for a different price. For example, the WSJ found listings for a Baton Rouge hotel room were 13 percent more expensive on a search from a Mac compared to a PC. In essence, Mac users are shown the nicer rooms.
(Update: UK retailler Tescos is taking it one step further)
In a Forrester research note released last October, the firm noted that Mac users are falling into the "power laptop user" range, or people who work 45 hours a week on average and have a solid 44 percent more income. They put it: "Most of the Macs today are being freewheeled into the office by executives, top sales reps, and other workaholics." I certainly think that stands true, because owning an Apple product is an expensive investment. The lowest priced Mac laptop costs $999, which certainly is not cheap and not something everyone can buy. Despite the high price, you are buying a quality product.
To be clear, Orbitz is not putting an "Apple Tax" on the price of hotels. It is just defaulting the higher-end stuff to Mac users, because Orbitz believes Mac users are more likely to choose higher-end hotels.
It is a risky strategy and may put some people off, however. Moreover, as Mac users, it is very easy to get smug about something like this. But does it make good business sense?

Taylor Price analysis
|04.23.10 at 10:47 pm ET
FOXBORO ' The Patriots' selection of Taylor Price with the 90th pick will, like all of their picks thus far, be met with some criticism, but they addressed a position of need with a player with good upside. A player who was expected to some to rise because of his size (6-foot, 204 pounds) and speed (4.41 40-yard dash at the combine, second-best among receivers), the Patriots got decent value with the pick.
Price is Ohio's all-time leader in receptions with 149. His career totals in receiving yards (2,019) and touchdowns (14) rank second in the school's history. A cornerback in high school at Hilliard Darby (OH), Price moved to receiver as a senior and wasn't heavily recruited, but his production at Ohio earned him an invitation to the scouting combine, where he impressed.
Should the Patriots assume their problems at receiver are solved? In the past week they've added Torry Holt, who's better days are behind him, and Price, who is considered to be an underdeveloped receiver with questionable hands. The Patriots are undoubtedly interested in what a healthy Brandon Tate will bring to the table as a No. 3 receiver, but the fact of the matter is that adding Price is adding another receiver with plenty of upside to the mix. They passed on the likes of Dez Bryant, Arrelious Benn, and Golden Tate at multiple points earlier in the draft, so the decision to bring in Price in the third round when top prospects at other positions remained on the board is certainly intriguing.
