Which Means Big Tens are Right Around the Corner -- The Len Paddock Invite means one thing -- Big Ten Championships are coming up. This year's Big Ten Championships are slated for May 13-15 at the University of Iowa. Michigan finished eighth at last year's event. [ Championships Central ]
Last Meet at Home -- Alisha Cole, Danica Haight, Andrea Marcos, Jennifer Neville, Kaitlyn Peale, Danielle Tauro and Lauren Young will say goodbye to Ferry Field this weekend. Each Wolverine has either already graduated or will before next season and has exhausted all eligibility.
All in One Place -- For the first time since April 16, the Wolverines are all competing at one event. U-M split three ways last weekend, participating in the Penn Relays (April 28), Drake Relays (April 29-30) and the Hillsdale Relays (April 29-30). The previous weekend, the Wolverines were in action at the EMU Invitational, April 22-23, and the Jesse Owens Memorial Classic, April 23-24.
Historic Ferry Field -- Bearing the name of Detroit businessman and U-M supporter Dexter M. Ferry, the head of Ferry Seed Company, Ferry Field was constructed in 1906 and initially served as the home field for Michigan football teams from 1906-26. Following the 1926 season, the U-M football team moved up the road to Michigan Stadium and the old stadium began to come down as the north bleachers made way for the new Intramural Sports Building. The playing field was devoted exclusively to track and field, except for use as a military training ground during World War II and as the site of many graduation ceremonies
Ferry Field has a permanent place in track and field history. As a collegian at Ohio State University, Jesse Owens set three world records and tied another as a sophomore at the 1935 Big Ten Conference Championships held at the University of Michigan's facility. A time chronology of Owens' feat shows he tied the 100-yard dash record (9.4) at 2:45 p.m.; set the broad jump record (26-8 1/4) at 3:25 p.m.; established the 220-yard dash record (20.3) at 3:34 p.m.; and at 4 p.m. set the 220-yard low hurdles record (22.6). Described as the greatest day in track and field history, a plaque commemorating Owens' accomplishment stands at the southeast corner of Ferry Field.
DMR...Just Like NCAAs -- Just like its finish at the NCAA Indoor Championships this past season, the distance medley relay team of Danielle Tauro, Alisha Cole, Rebecca Addison and Jillian Smith finished sixth (11:07.76) at the Penn Relays. Tauro led off with the 1,200-meter leg (3:27.70), Cole ran the 400-meter leg (55.20), Addison ran the 800-meter leg (2:04.19) and Smith ran the final leg, the mile (4:40.67). Michigan's time at NCAAs was 11:07.38 for the 4,000-meter race. The DMR is only an NCAA event during the indoor season.
Pendleton Grabs Second Place -- For the second straight week, sophomore Erin Pendleton threw a season best in the discus. She threw 54.74 meters (179-07) at the Drake Relays on Friday (April 29) to finish in a close runner-up position. Her mark bettered her throw of 54.21 meters (177-10) at the Jesse Owens Memorial Classic two weekends ago. She is currently ranked No. 7 on the outdoor POP list and second in the Big Ten in the discus.
So Does Tobel -- Kiley Tobel had Michigan's best finish at the Hillsdale Relays, taking second in the pole vault with a clearance of 3.70 meters (12-1 1/2). She was one of seven Wolverines in uniform at the meet.
Pendleton Earns Weekly Laurels -- After winning the discus at the Jesse Owens Memorial Classic for the second straight season, Erin Pendleton became the fourth Wolverine to earn Big Ten Weekly honors this season. She earned the honor for the third time in her career after winning twice as a freshman. She joins Rebecca Addison (two), Jillian Smith and Allison Liske as winners this season.
Outdoor POP List -- Jillian Smith is the highest-ranked Wolverine in the current outdoor POP list, coming in at No. 7 in the 1,500-meter run. [ Full List ]
Lauren Young Trades Basketball for Track -- Senior Lauren Young came to Michigan as a basketball player but will leave it as a track athlete. [ Story ]
Sisters Add Unique Dynamic To Track and Field Team -- The Michigan Daily looks at the three sets of sisters on the team: Andrea Marcos and Erica Marcos; Emily Pendleton and Erin Pendleton; Chloe Prince and Nicole Prince. [ Story ]
Let's Make It Like Indoors -- During the indoor season, Michigan improved its 2010 Big Ten finish by four spots in 2011. The Wolverines finished eighth during 2010, before jumping to No. 4 at this year's championships. During last year's outdoor season, the Maize and Blue also finished eighth and will be looking for similar improvement at this year's championship meet.
McGuire Named Great Lakes Assistant Coach of the Year - Associate head coach Mike McGuire was named the USTFCCCA Great Lakes Assistant Coach of the Year for the fifth time in his career after helping Michigan to a fourth-place finish at the Big Ten Championships. McGuire's athletes won two individual titles along with Michigan's eighth consecutive win in the distance medley relay at the Championships. [ Release ]
Trio of Captains to Lead U-M -- Alisha Cole, Allison Liske and Danielle Tauro will serve as captains for the 2011 season. Tauro repeats as captain for the second consecutive season while Cole and Liske were chosen by their teammates for the first time.
[ Release ]
Who Is Back -- The Wolverines return 22 letterwinners from last year's team that picked up a pair of eighth-place finishes at both the 2010 Big Ten Indoor and Outdoor Championships. Michigan swept both Freshman of the Year awards with sophomores Jillian Smith and Erin Pendleton earning the honors. Smith (indoor 800-meter run) and Pendleton (outdoor discus throw) were the only Wolverines to win individual Big Ten championships during 2010. The Wolverines won their seventh consecutive distance medley relay title and return Smith, Danielle Tauro and sophomore Rebecca Addison from that team.
For the second consecutive season, the East and West Preliminary Championship competition will be utilized to qualify for the NCAA Championships. Using a descending order list, the top 48 athletes in each event will participate in two rounds (first round and quarterfinals) during the Preliminary Round. Twelve competitors from each individual event and 12 teams from each relay event will advance from each Preliminary Championship competition to the NCAA Championships. There are no qualifying marks used during the outdoor season.
The University of Michigan athletics department will no longer print media guides. U-M fans and media can still obtain all the information they're used to, only now it's available online. Each of our varsity athletic teams will have a Record Book and a Yearbook. If you're looking for in-depth historical information, statistics, records, archives, etc., the Record Book is what you'll need. For more of a general overview of a team, the staff and student-athletes, check out the Yearbook. [ Publications ]

ED Magedson – Founder
Ripoff Report
Carey Davidson - Intervention ASAP5010 E Shea Blvd. Phoenix, Arizona United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Carey Davidson is a fraud! He is not capable of doing a proper intervention. We terminated this guy within hours after a grandmother felt compelled to help her grandson. She paid him $2,500.00, was terminated and he agreed to return $1,800.00 and reneged. He is a liar and a cheat! Carey had an email termination of the services within 48 hours and a verbal termination within 30 hours.
This cheat, Carey showed up with a contract that stated $6,500. He then crossed it out when we confronted him and said it was a boilerplate contract and proceeded to change it to $2,500.00 after attempting to pass it off unnoticed. Carey worked one night (approximately 6 hours) and not 3-6 months which is what the contract states. He grabbed the phone from a family member, instigated the person, and called the police. Carey was not involved in the intervention. Carey created more anxiety, mistrust and distress for this family than anything then has the audacity to steal our money!
It appears the process could very well be a possible scheme that capitalizes off of others emotions and difficult situations. Carey will take the credit for saying he gets people into treatment and that simply is not the case. We could not rely on Carey as he caused the situation to turn dramatic due to his inept handling of this families personal matter. Carey compromised the situation, exasperated everyone in the family and almost send a young man to jail because he was unprepared and unprofessional.
Carey worked for 6 hours and then made a few phone calls the next day. If Carey keeps $700 for his few hours of work he made a lot of money for his inept handling of this familys dire situation.
Additionally, any and all detox and rehab facilities in the Phoenix, Arizona area need to know this guy has a rip off scheme going on. Carey Davidson comes off saying he is a "Christian" but he is an unreasonable vulture and should be known for it. If you are a family in need DO NOT CALL CAREY DAVIDSON OF INTERVENTION ASAP - HE IS A FRAUD AND WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Has your friend expressed an informed opinion as to whether he wants a sextant? I wouldn''t leave the dock without one, but I enjoy celestial nav. I was in Marina Del Rey a few years ago to see off a friend in the Pacific Regatta, a non-stop race to Japan. I talked to at least a dozen other skippers, none of which was carrying a sextant. I asked each what they would do if their GPS crapped out, and every one said they had at least one back-up GPS. Made me feel like a dinosaur.
Dear Celestial,
1. Does your friend already know how to use a sextant?
2. If the answer is yes, you better ask him wether he would like a US$ 500 or plus metal sextant, or a US$ 150/200 plastic one. You may also find US$ 1500/2000 metal sextant. If he knows how to drive this thing, he probably has some predefined likes, such as weight, type o mirror, light, etc, and you would like to know exactly what he wants. (Unless you are able to change it at the shop)
3. If the answer is no, and he is planning to take a course sometime, since the offshore passage is scheduled in a couple of years, you''d rather evaluate if a sextant is the correct present for Xmas. If you spend US$ 1000 in a good sextant, you will probably find yourself asking when this guy will start learning to work out this ******* thing.
In this case I will probably consider other present.
However, let me tell you that the sizes in inches of almost all the sextants, are the same. The difference is the weight, depending upon they being plastic or metal.(the latter, expensivier)
At the very end, if you don''t have any budget restriction, you will go for a metal one.
Best regards, and Happy Holidays
I want to buy a sextant for my friend for christmas but I don''t know what size to get (in inches) He''s planning on doing some offshore sailing in a few years around the south pacific. If anyone has any ideas or can fill me in on what i should be looking for that''d be great! Thanks!

Cork shot through 18th-century painting
An Italian council official caused €1,000 of damage after popping open a bottle of spumante sending its cork sailing straight through an 18th-century Italian oil painting.
The unfortunate incident came to light a few days before Christmas when Roberto Cassago was asked to open a bottle of sparkling win at a party held at council offices in Palazzo Isimbardi, Milan.
The cork left a bullet-hole straight though the valuable painting which depicts a battle scene.
According to The Telegraph, Mr Cassago had only been invited to attend the gathering moments earlier as he was passing an open door.
In his defence Mr Cassago, 71, said he was virtually tee-total and was not used to opening bottles of wine.
The damage is expected to cost about £825 to repair which Mr Cassago has offered to pay himself if an insurance claim fails.
He told the Italian La Stampa newspaper that he was waiting to hear back from the insurance company but that if they didn't pay then he would "dip into his own pocket."
He also said he was due to retire but that at his leaving party would be asking someone else to open the bottle.

In his April 2005 column, "After the Bug Report," Danny R. Faught suggested that when you're testing a bug fix, you should also look for additional bugs. This week, he expands on that idea, showing you how one bug report can multiply into many more bugs.
As a tester, you know you're doing your job when you see a bug fixed. You can do an even better job when you use that bug as a guide to show you where more bugs are lurking in your product. My personal goal is to open at least one more bug as a result of checking the fix for a bug that was reported earlier.
Here are some specific ways you can use one fixed bug as inspiration for finding more bugs in a product:
- Look around the same area where the first bug was found. You already know to check that the bug fix works and didn't introduce new problems. Also look for latent bugs that may have been masked by the first bug.
- Look for the same bug on another platform. Your product might be ported to more than one operating system, or there might be overlapping features in a natively compiled application and a Web application. See if you can find a similar bug in places where the same feature is implemented.
- Look for a similar feature in other areas of the product, to see if a similar bug afflicts these areas. You may find that a user interface change that fixed one bug should be propagated to other areas in order to maintain consistency.
- If the original bug involves a corner case, push farther into the corner. If you make your test data more stressful or unusual than before, you may find additional bugs.
- Check the documentation. The bug fix might have changed user-visible behavior, and the user documentation might need to be updated to reflect this. If you've shed light on a limitation or subtle detail that wasn't documented before, consider whether it would help the user to mention this in the documentation.
- Look for bugs that have nothing to do with the bug fix you're testing. If you watch carefully, you will notice other bugs along the way that you weren't even trying to find.
I find it helpful to keep the fixed bug open and in my queue while I'm still brainstorming for additional bugs to file. If I become distracted by another task, lunch, etc., I have this reminder still in the bug database, which is especially important when I'm trying to juggle many tasks at once. If your organization requires you to close bug reports as quickly as possible, you may need to keep a separate log of notes on test ideas instead.
How It Fits In
When I use a fixed bug to generate ideas for finding additional bugs, I often find a flurry of newly discovered problems that I need to report. If I don't find any additional bugs, and I actually allow the count of open bugs to drop, I feel like I'm missing something. If you get that feeling too, then you've successfully adopted the habit of making bugs multiply.
I usually end up on projects where I'm testing a product with many bugs. If you're testing a mature product, you may not find as many additional bugs. But you won't know until you look.
If you're required to follow a highly structured process, you might have difficulty finding sufficient time to explore the additional areas that I'm suggesting in addition to your scheduled duties. In that case, I recommend taking a minute or two to see if you find any new symptoms. If you do, tell your manager your concern about the problems you find, and ask to schedule some time to explore those areas. You may have uncovered an area of the application

Platypus SoftBottle
Product Tested:
Platypus SoftBottle
Best Use for Product:
Tight spaces
Taking wine along
"Full when you need it, flat when you don't." Looking to shave some pack weight on your next hiking trip? Maybe your hard plastic bottle doesn't always fit in your bag. Well, the Platypus SoftBottle is for you. The SoftBottle weighs 80% less then most hard plastic water bottles with the 0.5L coming in at 0.8oz and the 1L weighing 1.2oz. Being that it is lightweight means less materials and energy were used to make it. That means this reusable bottle is a green product.
My favorite part of this American made product is that it is so flexible. Once I've had some to drink I can fold the bottle up and put it in my pocket. This allows me to have water with me on short hikes without having to carry a pack or hold a bottle. When flying they are also great. If your carry on is packed tight the bottle can conform to many shapes to fit in. They can also fit easily in the seat pocket in front of you.
Another benefit of this BPA free bottle is its Clean-Taste Guarantee. I've had many beverages in my SoftBottles besides water and have always been able to get the taste out. The key is to rinse the bottle thoroughly with warm water and then let it dry upside down. If you are hiking or picnicking in a park where glass isn't allowed the 1L SoftBottle is a great way to take along wine for your adventure.

Two of the most common questions we receive from marketers are "How do I know if it's worth having a community?" and "How can I prove to my executives that my community is worth their investment?" To get the initial funding and keep support coming for an owner community — one which you operate and fully brand on your own website — you must be able to clearly measure and communicate the value up to your CMO and CFO. That means capturing the effect it will have on your company's profitability as a part of your overall marketing investments.
As a part of a new research report I just published today with Shaheen Parks, we built upon Forrester's Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) methodology to provide you with a reference framework to estimate the ROI of your community.
We suggest that you focus on these three qualitative benefits, which form the core of our framework:

The Philadelphia Flyers' extended Wayne Simmonds' contract for 6 more years. Simmonds set career highs in goals and points in his first season with the team.
As the threat of an NHL lockout becomes more and more likely by the day, the Flyers locked up one of their more recent additions for quite a long time.
Wayne Simmonds came to Philadelphia as part of the Mike Richards trade to Los Angeles. While Simmonds was part of the deal, the main focus there was Brayden Schenn. Wayne Simmonds had a pretty special first year with the Flyers, however, and so the Flyers made the move to lock Simmonds up long term. Wayne Simmonds set career highs in goals with 28 and points with 49.
The deal is reportedly worth $24 million over 6 years. Simmonds still has 1 year remaining in his contract, so the extension will not kick in until 2013.
The 6 year deal comes as the NHL is trying to limit the length of contracts to 5 years, and is also trying to reduce player salaries by 24%. While there had been optimism that a lockout could be avoided, more recently it looks like the sides are too far apart to reach a deal by the September 15th deadline.

Meet The Winning Mayor Of Newark, NJ: Ras Baraka
Ras Baraka is running for Mayor of Newark, NJ and he's significantly ahead of the competitor, Shavar Jeffries and he's counting on the win.
If he wins, Ras Baraka will get straight to work on multiple audits, property improvements and more.
What will he do if he loses? Well, that's not even a thought for Ras.
What a winner!
"Well, that's not gon' happen [me losing the race]. I'm a Newark resident and my life is dedicated to the city. So, I'ma be here forever."
FUN FACT: Growing up, Ras loved Wolverine from X-Men.
When I was a kid, I used to like Wolverine because I liked the X-Men the most. I liked him because he was independent, even though he was a part of that and he was strong. He was willful. He would basically did what he thought was right on his own. I liked him for that and I liked him because he looked like he could win all the time too.
Stay tuned for the results!

Burnt at over 800 degress Celsius, thrown in swimming pools, and crushed by heavy earth movers - these are some of the tortures endured by its products in some of ioSafe's previous product promotion stunts. However, this time the specialist's in creating fire, water and impact resistant data storage products is taking a rather more sedate approach in promoting it's latest wares.
What this new product is, we don't yet know but that's where you come in. If you can guess correctly what the image below is then you could be in with a chance of winning one. Is it a multi-disk NAS box capable of surviving a three storey fall, an SSD that sprouts wings and flies to safety, a plain and simple water proof hard drive, or (now for) something completely different?
For more clues and details on how to enter the competition, head along to the ioSafe blog.
In the mean time, here's a video of what happened last time we got one of the company's products - the ioSafe SoloPro - in for review:

What should we as investors be looking for as we dissect the presentation at WWDC
The rumors are all in every Apple fan has wagered on what new toys Apple will tantalize us with. As we watch all the excitement with new igadgets what really matters. We need to look for clues on where Apple going next. WWDC provides a great venue to help developers understand where Apple's trying to take the companies products and steer their development efforts. Hardware announcements may or may not be made at WWDC, the real story is where Apple is making gains against it competition. Look at the key verticals which we be on display in demo's and the statistics Apple provides. These are the things which matter to Apple. Apple is finally gaining traction with Enterprise and Government markets.
Cloud based initiatives
In bringing Internet into its desktop apps, Apple is also trying to overcome its lack of web savviness. A case in point is iWork.com, which carries the beta tag but is more like an alpha. For now, you can?t edit other people?s docs; you can only leave sticky notes on them or chat about them. On the issue of collaboration, as hipsters would say, iWork.com is an epic fail, considering that even tiny startups are able to offer those features. It seems that, in order to actually edit the document, you have to download it and make change offline. If they want to be taken seriously, they?ll have to get it up to par with Google Docs; I hope they do.
Snow Leopard Server
Roughly Drafted Magazine
In addition to offering Mac and iPhone users the equivalent of a hosted, 20 GB Exchange Server mailbox with additional photo and video sharing features and better file management tools at a price far lower than any vendor could afford to offer hosted Exchange mailboxes, Apple is also building upon Mac OS X Server to deliver an Exchange and SharePoint alternative for companies who want to host their own messaging and collaboration services at a far lower cost than Microsoft charges.
Apple isn?t just taking wild stabs in various desperate directions. Both Mobile Me and Mac OS X Server share a lot of the same technologies, and build upon the same client side efforts to support push messaging on both the Mac desktop and the iPhone. In other words, rather than just adding Exchange support to the iPhone and the desktop?s Mail, iCal and Address Book, Apple is also making all of them push savvy by using open standards, with the result of being able to offer Exchange-like services itself and in a server product that allows companies to host this locally.
Gaming on the IPhone/Itouch will Apple provide an ATV sdk?
We don't think anybody—Apple included—saw that one coming. iPhone was to be the ultimate smartphone. A BlackBerry killer. If it played games, great—a nice bonus. But when Apple debuted the App Store and iPhone owners began downloading three times as many games as traditional apps, a light bulb blazed on at Apple's Cupertino headquarters. Company men started to make confident statements about the iPhone as a gaming platform. Suddenly, Apple billboards and TV commercials showed iPhone and its cellular-less companion as viable portable game systems. And game demonstrations became just as important as cutting-edge app presentations during Apple's periodic keynotes.
Even so, it has been easy to point to the great divide in markets between DS and iPhone. The former has always been a wholly dedicated game system and the latter is all-in-one device that happens to play games. DS plays traditional software. Most of the iPhone games have in contrast been ridiculously simple. But with the arrival of the DSi, the lines have started to blur. One of, if not the biggest addition to the Nintendo handheld is, of course, DSiWare—downloadable software on the cheap. It's simple. And it's exactly like the games you will find populating iPhone's App Store. The DSi has an updated Web browser, cameras to take and manipulate pictures, and even a music player. Both companies are guilty of invading each other's established territory. Suddenly, the DSi and iPhone have a lot in common.
10 Reasons Nintendo Should Fear iPhone
Apple Links
AnyWare Group Inc. announced today that Quinte Health Care has begun sharing technology through the ROAM Portal Platform across multiple facilities spread over 3 diverse counties in Southeastern Ontario. The ROAM initiative makes medical systems, applications and IT resources available to physicians and surgeons, wherever they are, including those who prefer to work with the Mac OS X
There is a seemingly endless amount of medical applications that could be developed for a Mac Tablet. However, we think it would be the ultimate interface for electronic medical records (EMRs). Ease-of-use has been a primary barrier to EMR adoption, so Apple ? known for intuitive design and usability - would be welcomed by physicians.

Mac usage at Universities
I often get into discussions with software vendors about the size of the Mac market, in particular the number of scientific users at universities. It is very difficult to get accurate numbers but an increasing number of places have published a breakdown. Whilst few universities keep as complete records as University of Virginia, where Mac usage has increased from a low of 4% to nearly 40%, I?ve tried to keep a track of the numbers and what seems clear is the number of Macs on campus is increasing.
The future of "networked warfare" requires each soldier to be linked electronically to other troops as well as to weapons systems and intelligence sources. Making sense of the reams of data from satellites, drones and ground sensors cries out for a handheld device that is both versatile and easy to use. With their intuitive interfaces, Apple devices?the iPod Touch and, to a lesser extent, the iPhone?are becoming the handhelds of choice.
Apple gadgets are proving to be surprisingly versatile. Software developers and the U.S. Department of Defense are developing military software for iPods that enables soldiers to display aerial video from drones and have teleconferences with intelligence agents halfway across the globe. Snipers in Iraq and Afghanistan now use a "ballistics calculator" called BulletFlight, made by the Florida firm Knight's Armament for the iPod Touch and iPhone. Army researchers are developing applications to turn an iPod into a remote control for a bomb-disposal robot (tilting the iPod steers the robot). In Sudan, American military observers are using iPods to learn the appropriate etiquette for interacting with tribal leaders.
There's nothing specific investors should be looking for. This is a conference primarily for programmers, essentially about APIs, and apart from the keynote, it's under NDA. The only implicit hardware pronouncement I've heard from someone who has in the past been trusted with advance info is Walt Mossberg's (accidental?) statement (since buried, I think): "I?d note that the new iPhone to be unveiled next week will have lots of added features".
Just enjoy it, and digest afterwards!

something about a deal in china would probably give the stock a nice lift . . .

Since this is a conference for developers, I would expect a focus on the various avenues for developers to monetize the platform with an emphasis on the success achieved to date and prospects of future success for developers who commit to iPhone development.

something other than laptops.
Black Swan Counter: 9 (Banks need money, Jobs needs a break, Geithner has no plan, Cuomo's grandstanding, .Gov needs a hobby, GS works for money, flash crash, is that bubbling crude?).
For those who look, a flash allows one to see farther.
something other than laptops.
Well we got the laptops. And a release date for Snow Leopard. And a price of $29 to upgrade.
Rob Enderle must be a little pissed:
?The question is whether they will use it for product launches,? said Rob Enderle, president of the Enderle Analyst Group. ?It appears the answer is no since they are signaling that not only will Jobs not be there, neither will the new phones.? From the standpoint of consumers and even investors, he said, the developers conference isn?t nearly as important as Macworld.
Anyone notice the constant picking on of AT&T in the presentation?
Apple delivered lots of stuff that has been asked for like MMS and Tethering BUT NOT ON AT&T as pointed out by Phil. Sounds like Apple are getting aggressive on the user's behalf.
The naysayers have wanted an Apple without Steve Jobs. Well, they got it. Amazing mac hardware, all kinds of new features that actually add value for the customer, and $29 for an OS upgrade? Apple continues to use *software* as their loss leader, while continuing to 'drop' the price on hardware (leveraging volume discounts to keep margins high). Absolutely incredible.
Moving the 13" into the Pro lineup does indeed create another gaping hole in the laptop line, The first is the gap between Mac Mini and Mac Pro. Yes, you could say the Macbook Air and the iMac fill these gaps. I still call them gaping holes, just waiting for an October release of a quadcore mini tower and netbookthingy - both to take advantage of Snow Leopard's multithreaded goodness.
Use your powers for good.
- [ Ignore ]
As for what to watch. We anticipate and prognosticate for weeks before these events. Those investors not as invested as those here, may take a few days to react to what we now see as old news. Apple remains the bright bulb in applied technology for the masses, and the rest of us.

We are still years from seeing a Apple without Job's influence. EVERYTHING that was just announced was probably planned months ago .. long before Jobs took his leave. If Job's never returns, something I hope does not happen, Apple is set for the next few years with specific goals and even further with their " culture".
Apple sold 37 million iPhones/iPod touches since Jun 07 till Apr earnings. During WWDC, Scott said Apple sold over 40 million. So, from Apr earnings till today, Apple sold over 3 million. Is that good?

Considering that everyone knew a new phone was coming I would say that that was pretty good.

Couple thoughts on the number. The 3M is iphone plus touch so with 2/3 of month done it is probably okay but not fantastic. That said last year was severe shortage and .7M sold of iphone so YOY growth will be great assuming launch week again exceeds 1M. Looks like supply might be constrained at launch a bit based on number of countries for the June launch vs July. I would assume a simlilar build rate let's say 800K per week, hard to say when it all started but according to rumors parts were moving in March and build started in May so Apple may have about 2-3M of inventory. Since the carriers decide when to fill channel, the whole inventory could be accounted for or not this quarter. As far as the revenue. Apple delayed recognition until release of 3.0 software so we will only see a small portion of the revenue this quarter either way.

but they can't hide the cash $$$
- [ Ignore ]
but they can't hide the cash $$$
That's correct.
In looking at Apple's quarterly financial reports increasingly more attention should be paid to net pick up in cash and changes to deferred revenue liabilities. The GAAP eps outcome is increasingly divorced from operating realities, especially with the iPhone's potential still in its nascent phase.

Where I stayed
Pachamama Hostel
Back in Chile...On day four, we left Arica, heading right uphill – sea level to 12,000' in two hours – to our first destination in the Andes, the Reserva de Biosfera Lauca Parque National. We based ourselves in Putre, Chile, an agricultural hamlet where sheep and llamas outnumber human residents by at least 4-1. Here we encountered our first indigenous community, the Aymara, generations removed from the Incas, whose empire extended down to southern Chile, where the fierce Mapucha of Patagonia kept them at bay
One of our hosts at our hostel in Putre was a resident baby llama. The llama, Patricio, became buddies with Oliver, who was soon feeding him from a bottle and leading him around the courtyard. The little llama's baaaing and nuzzling was heartwarming (though potty training was definitely an issue).
Using Putre as our base, we embarked upon a two day tour of the Andean altiplano, visiting Lauca Parque National, La Reserva National Las Vicunas, and Monumento Natural Salar de Surire. This region abuts Bolivia, and Lauca's highest peak, Parinacota, at 6,340, or 21,000', borders both countries.
Rolling hills and pastoral river valleys are home to the protected vicuna, alpaca, llama, nandu, foxes, flamingos, Andean condors and the rabbit-like, and endangered, vizkotca. A few small pueblos appear out of nowhere on the shrubby pampas. One of the larger, Guallatire, seemed absolutely deserted. We freely explored the streets, empty but for a few hens, and peeked over walls of warren-like � scale mud houses. Oliver and Michael climbed the colonial church tower. They refrained from ringing the bell, as this would definitely have confused the locals.
After bidding goodbye to our new-found friends at the hostel, including Patricio the llama, we hoisted our packs on our back, caught a ride from town to the main carreterra, and awaited our bus for the five hour trip across the border and on to La Paz, Bolivia.

Special Career Day for Mebane Middle School
Starting next year, students will be expected to choose majors while in high school. The students were exposed to a variety of different career professionals, including city government health occupations education and banking.
And they had the chance to ask the questions important to them, like one directed to CH2M Hill's David Cowen, about how much money engineers make.
The exposure to the different career possibilities was enlightening to 8th graders, including Billy Godwin who says, "This is the first time I actually decided it was cool. I'm pretty sure i want to do computers." He hopes to attend Loften High School next fall.
Seventh grader Kyle Smith found there was an added benefit to the day of career learning. "I was really worth my time, I mean school's fun and everything but we actually got time to take a break and learn what we can do in life," said the 7th grader.
These career-minded students also got more than they bargained for. They were treated to a visit from two successful sports-super stars who once sat in their seats. Brothers Mike and Adrian Peterson from the Jacksonville Jaguars and Chicago Bears respectively came with a message for students to believe that they could be anything they wanted: teachers, doctors and nurses.
The former Mebane student, Mike Peterson, explained why he felt it important that he speak to the kids,"Growing up we were always taught sports go hand in hand with academics. That was instilled in us as a kid and it's still in us to this day so we're just trying to pass the message on to the younger grads."
His brother who now makes Chicago home, struggled with a speech impediment throughout his education, but told the middle schoolers the most important thing, to dream big. He he thinks that if students stay focused, they can overcome adversity., "...Put yourself in the best situation to succeed and everything else will take care of itself."
The purpose of Career Day says Principal Vieta Jackson-Carter, "...hopefully we planted the seeds in the areas they've chosen so they've had people that they could reach out and touch and talk to and ask how did you do to get where you are."

What Learning Style Does Your Student Use?
People process and absorb information in very different ways. And, as your student digs into finals this month, chances are that his learning style is what helped him get this far.
As an interesting point of conversation, consider talking with your student about learning styles and how he feels that he learns best. Share your own learning style, too, as a way to help him get to know more about you. The different options are as follows:
- Visual Learners. Approximately 65 percent of the population learns visually, responding well to visual cues such as pictures, notes and diagrams.
- Auditory Learners. Approximately 30 percent of the population tends to retain information after hearing it.
- Kinesthetic Learners. Approximately 5 percent of the population picks things up through touch or imitation.

Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.
Goodmorning everyone. Thank you all for the welcomes. Sorry for the delayed response, Ive been rather busy latley. But as I freeze my butt off in my ambulance on this quiet night, I need some entertainment!
Glad to see there are some others from Tennessee here, especialy in and near my area (Shelby Co). I looked at the TN Firearms website a few times early this year and from what I remember the forums were mostly old posts and I think it said they are on facebook now which Im not a fan of. Anyways the meetings for the TFA are held at the range I shoot at so I guess I can start there.

With the election looming, MP's personal lives are under more scrutiny than ever. There are always plenty of rumours - our current favourite has two very married, very powerful people ending their affair because the MP reportedly wouldn't leave his wife. And frankly, why would you, this close to the election? So here's our choice of eligible bachelors and bachelorettes.
Saucy minx and Auckland Central MP, National's Nikki Kaye, 34
Kaye says her perfect date is a weekend away on Great Barrier Island. And her worst? "Being stood up twice in one night."
She confesses she has had "better quality love letters from constituents than from any of my ex-boyfriends", and is pleased we're referring to her as a bachelorette.
"It's better than spinster or many of the other colourful terms I have been called as a poli."
The Hottest Ginga in Parliament and Rimutaka MP, Labour's Chris Hipkins, 35
"Yes, I'm tragically single. Lots of the oldies in my electorate seem eager to set me up with their granddaughters!
"It can be a bit of a laugh sometimes. A few of my colleagues joke from time to time about filming a reality TV series to find me a wife."
His perfect date: "Good food, good conversation, and a bit of a laugh. It's all about the quality of the company, after all."
The highly intelligent, would be-Epsom MP, Act's David Seymour, 30
He says his marital status isn't a common topic of discussion with voters. "Some people ask but I think most want someone who can show empathy and represent them well at home in the electorate and down in Wellington."
His perfect date would be with someone "who would be a best friend even if there was no romantic interest at all. I'd want to do something you'd do with said friend, a bit cliched, but cooking something good at home gives you lots of time to hang out.
"Cedar plank salmon and a rich chocolate Annabel Langbein dessert."
Sensibly sexy Labour List MP Jacinda Ardern, Auckland, 34
"I can only remember the question of whether I was married or not coming up once [with voters].
"I was door-knocking and the man who answered the door went off at the idea that I was an unmarried woman in Parliament. Otherwise it doesn't really come up . . . unless you count my grandma."
Ardern's perfect date: "Maybe it's my Morrinsville upbringing, but I have a pretty low bar when it comes to a good date. As long as the company is good, and it's just a little bit flasher than a visit to the A&P show, then I'm pretty happy."
Flirtatiously fabulous National list Melissa Lee, Auckland, 39
Spy hears Lee can be quite a flirt, with a source telling us: "Melissa is single in the sweetest sort of way, however, she can be seductively flirtatious and is quite the dancer.
"She famously tore up the dance floor at the US Marine Corps ball, dancing Gangnam Style with a dashing Major General."
Spy hears her perfect date may include a weekend away to the South Island at a nice cosy lodge.
Romantic walks would be a must as Lee loves nature and picturesque settings.

Tribeca Cinemas Presents 'Beware the Gonzo'
This event has already taken place. Click here for the latest events.15-09-2011 12:00:00 15-09-2011 12:00:00 America/New_York Tribeca Cinemas Presents 'Beware the Gonzo' | 6pm First-time director Bryan Goluboff's film is the story of a 17-year-old student who starts a revolution in his high school but nearly loses himself in the process. Eddie "Gonzo" Gilman (Ezra Miller) is the quintessential outsider - too smart to be a follower and too outspoken to be accepted. When Gavin Riley, the hugely popular editor of the newspaper (Jesse McCartney), fires Gonzo from the paper, Gavin has no idea what events he has inadvertently set into motion. Once ousted, Gonzo takes on a new role and thus a new era at the school is born. Gonzo becomes a rebel with a cause.

text: The trial of a man accused of brutally murdering an elderly woman in Farmington last year is underway. 27-year-old Juan Contreras showed little emotion in court while wearing a bullet proof vest for the first day of his murder trial. His fate now lies in the hands of Judge Michaela Murphy. Contreras is charged with fatally stabbing 81-year-old Grace Burton 35 times in her apartment last June and has waived his right to a jury trial.Police say the killer cut his hand during the murder and DNA from blood found at the crime scene matched Contreras. "There is no question here the defendant is responsible for Grace Burton's death. The only question for you is whether he acted intentionally or knowingly," Deputy Attorney General Lisa Marchese told the judge Monday during opening statements.Defense attorneys admit Contreras killed Burton, but they say he was under the influence of the synthetic drug bath salts at the time and didn't know right from wrong.During his opening statement, defense attorney Chris Berryment said Contreras visited two local bars the night of the murder and smoked marijuana with a stranger "who looked like Jesus" at one point during the night. Berryment said Contreras didn't know the marijuana was laced with bath salts and plans to call a witness that will testify to Contreras' erratic behavior the night of the murder. "He was acting paranoid. He was acting concerned with his surroundings. He was looking around constantly," Berryment said. "He will testify Mr. Contreras' pupils were fully dilated. He will testify to the fact that the next day when he heard Grace Burton had been killed, he immediately thought of Mr. Contreras." Prosecutors are rejecting the bath salts defense, arguing Contreras' actions were calculated that night proving he knew exactly what he was doing. "He went into Grace Burton's apartment, unlocked the backside. He sees her through a window and rather than kicking in the door, rather than knocking down the door, he takes a knife he's carrying and goes in the window. And he goes back out that window because it's the safe way that he wasn't caught going in," Marchese argued. "He knew how to get in and out of that apartment. He knew to lie to his wife about what he had been doing that night and how he cut his hand. The defendant made conscious decisions that night that illustrate that he's guilty of intentional or knowing murder." Prosecutors have their own theory on what set Contreras off. After his arrest he told police his life had spiraled out of control and he just snapped. "What will be supported factually in this case is that the marriage between the defendant and his wife was failing. He thought she was cheating on him. He had been fired by Reny's department store. He had little money. He disliked living in the Farmington area. He complained about being a minority living here. And everything came to a head for him that night," Marchese said. The prosecution's first witness was Wayne Drake, an officer with the University of Maine at Farmington police. UMF Public Safety officers routinely assist Farmington police and respond to calls when other officers are tied up on other cases.Drake testified that he found Grace Burton lying in a pool of blood in her apartment and talked to her while waiting for paramedics to arrive. "She was slipping in and out of consciousness. The first thing I asked her was did she know the attacker and she said no. I asked her if she knew what he looked like. She indicated he had a small mustache and a baseball cap," Drake testified. "I told her you're not dying and she said 'yes I am'." Burton later died from her wounds at Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston.Maine's Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Margaret Greenwald also took the stand Monday. She outlined each one of the 35 stab wounds Burton suffered during the fatal attack.The trial resumes Tuesday and could wrap up this week.

NEW YORK (AP) — Religious leaders are protesting New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's decision not to include a clergy-led prayer in the city's ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
About two dozen ministers gathered Saturday in front of St. Paul's Chapel in lower Manhattan. The group planned to walk to the edge of ground zero and hold a prayer service there.
The Rev. Rob Schenck notes that clergy members ministered to people in New York after the attacks. He says it was hurtful not to include religious leaders in Sunday's ceremony.
Bloomberg has said he wants to keep the focus of the ceremony on victims' families. Organizers say the event will include spiritual readings and six minutes of silence for personal reflection or prayer.

text: A children's shop in Bangor is closing its doors. The Mad Hatter opened here three years ago, after a more than 30-year history in Presque Isle. The Mad Hatter sells all sorts of high-quality children's clothes, from everyday tees to fancy frocks. They have a loyal following of customers, like Jennifer Doyel of Medway. "It's just good quality stuff. And it's different things that you don't find in other locations," Doyel says.The store moved into the Bangor Mall last year. Now their lease is up, and owner Harmony Allen says the time has come to close."In this economy, it hasn't been worth it to stay open. Maybe another time would have been better. But we opened in '07 and everybody knows what happened in retail that year," Allen says. "The people that used to come in and spend 200-300 dollars or a hundred dollars a visit are now spending 30-40-50, so our average sale has changed."She tells us she's been talking things over with her mother– now a silent partner, who opened the first store in Presque Isle 33 years ago. Allen says it's the right decision for them, but it won't be easy."I have truly enjoyed being here and I love all the kids. I'm going to miss my customers the most," Allen says.Her customers say that feeling is mutual."She's a great person and a great personality and always had great customer service," Doyel says.Allen says while she doesn't know what comes next for her, The Mad Hatter will stay open until they sell the rest of their inventory."I appreciate all the business. It's been a wonderful ride while it lasted," Allen says. "I'm going to focus on what we have here now which is a lot of inventory which we need to move. I want to get my customers in here and I want to make them happy. And I'm going to continue to do that until we close."

The unbeaten Ferris State University football team (3-0, 2-0 GLIAC) has cracked the national rankings for the first time this season as the Bulldogs are listed 24th this week (Sept. 16) in the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Division II National Poll released Tuesday.
FSU earned 56 total points in the poll conducted by head coaches from across the country following the squad's 14-0 shutout victory over previously undefeated Findlay in its home opener under rainy conditions this past Saturday (Sept. 13) at FSU's Top Taggart Field in Big Rapids, Mich.
The Bulldogs are one of only two Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) schools listed in the nation's current top 25 poll along with second-ranked archrival Grand Valley State. The Bulldogs and the Lakers will square off in the annual Anchor-Bone Classic this Saturday (Sept. 20) evening with kickoff set for 7 p.m. (EDT) at GVSU's Lubbers Stadium in Allendale, Mich. FSU and GVSU remain the only unbeaten teams in the GLIAC entering Saturday nightĺs showdown.
Ferris and 23rd-ranked Edinboro (Pa.) are the only newcomers to this week's poll, which is headed by top-ranked Valdosta State (Ga.). The Blazers received 21 first-place votes with GVSU earning two, third-ranked North Alabama receiving one and number four Abilene Christian (Texas) picking up two first-place votes. Last week (Sept. 9), Ferris had been listed among other schools receiving votes in the AFCA poll with 10 points.
This week's ranking marks the first time Ferris State has ever been ranked among the nation's top 25 teams in the AFCA poll since the organization began publishing a Division II Top 25 Coachesĺ Poll in 2000. The 2008 Division II Board of Coaches consists of 26 voters representing all Division II conferences, as well as independent schools. The poll is released on Tuesdays beginning and runs through the final week of the regular season.
This week also represents the first time the Bulldogs have been ranked in any national poll since earning preseason recognition as the nation's 18th-ranked squad in the 2007 Lindy's College Football Preview Division II Preseason Top 25 Poll. The Bulldogs finished the 2006 season ranked 17th in Don Hansen's Football Gazette's final Division II Top 40 poll and 22nd nationally in D2Football.com's final Top 25 poll.
Ferrisĺ win over Findlay gave the Bulldogs only their second 3-0 start in the last 12 years along with the 2006 campaign when they won their first three outings before losing at Hillsdale in week four (29-27). Prior to 2006, FSU hadnĺt won three in a row since the 1996 campaign when they made their last trip to the NCAA-II Playoffs. Ironically, Ferris also played GVSU in week four of the Ĺ96 campaign and suffered a 36-17 loss at Allendale, which at the time halted the Bulldogsĺ 42-game unbeaten streak (40-0-2) along with their 41-game Midwest Intercollegiate Football Conference (MIFC) unbeaten string (39-0-2) and their 27-game conference win streak.
Saturday's win against the Oilers represented FSU's first shutout dating back 71 games since recording a 35-0 triumph at home over Michigan Tech in 2001. It marked the programĺs eighth shutout victory since 1990, but only the second in the last 12 seasons along with the 2001 contest.
The Anchor-Bone Classic will be carried live locally by WYBR (102.3 FM) with Jason DaDay handling the play-by-play duties. The game will be televised live in parts of Michigan on Charter Main Street and Comcast (900/901). Live internet Gametracker statistics and a video/audio pay-per-view webcast are also slated to be offered. Links for all media coverage will be posted on the FSU website and can be found by clicking the ôinternet event scheduleö icon at www.ferris.edu/sports.
The Anchor Bone Trophy is awarded annually to the winner of the Ferris State-Grand Valley State football game. The trophy debuted in 2002 and GVSU has maintained possession of the trophy the last five years with three wins in Allendale along with two at FSUĺs Top Taggart Field in Big Rapids.
Bulldog fans can join fellow alumni and friends for the "Sink the Lakers" tailgate before Saturdayĺs game beginning at 4 p.m. (EDT) in Lot F adjacent to the GVSU Fieldhouse in Allendale. Please RSVP to Brandi in the Ferris Alumni Office at (888) 378-3647 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
For ticket information, please contact the GVSU Athletics Office at (616) 331-8800. In addition, tickets can be bought online via Star Tickets Plus at www.starticketsplus.com.

Date of Stay: April, 2014
The cleanest Rv park I have used so far during our 2 week trip across the southwest! Immaculate shower and restroom. Lovely small pool and hot tub (didn't use either). Had a kitchen available with full stove and sink near restrooms/laundry area. All back-ins, but each had picnic table and grassy areas behind each. Nicely kept lawn/flowers. Very convenient to downtown Long Beach, 15 min walk along bike trail along water front to Aquarium area with lots of restaurants and free bus over to Queen Mary. Bus then loops around and drops off about a block from RV park. Gated, with keypad entry from after hours.
Date of Stay: April, 2014
Nice shady park amongst pine trees. Each site had a fire pit for campfires or BBQ. Only 4-5 miles to Bryce Canyon Nat'L park. Nice laundry facilities and a bare bones little grocery. Very helpful staff that directed us to a pristine and beautiful lake 7 miles away where my husband caught trout.

A previous investigation conducted by the city's own authorities did not uncover any children under the age of 16, China's minimum legal working age. Samsung did find some problems at the plant and fortunately, none of those problems indicated the use of child labor.
What Samsung did find however, are "several instances of inadequate management and potentially unsafe practices" at the HEG plant. Samsung also said that it was conducting check of all its facilities in China and will be sending out a team of 100 Samsung employees to canvass all 105 Chinese suppliers the company works with by the end of this month.

What a Lovely Family (Not)
Bristol and Willow Palin With Tripp:
Fear Surrounds Obama's Visit With Denver Theater Shooting Victims
I live in Boulder, Colorado which is roughly 25 miles northwest of Denver. Off and on since Friday morning I've been watching local coverage of the massacre at the Aurora movie theater.
Yesterday we were told that President Obama would come here this evening to meet with "friends and family of the victims." I thought we would see live video of him getting out of his car, walking into one of the hospitals, coming out of a hospital or whatever.
No. There's been none of that.
The only "live shot" has been of Air Force One sitting on the tarmac at Buckley AFB.
I also thought he might make a statement near the theater or in the park across the street where people have been gathering. But no.
He hasn't made any public appearances whatsoever.
Now I hear, again, via local media, that he did visit "friends and family of the victims" but he's traveling back to the fortified Buckley Air Force Base and he'll make a statement to the people of Aurora, Denver and the nation from there.
They. Are. Scared.
The NRA owns the place. Apparently we can't even have a discussion about banning assault rifles because the Founding Fathers supposedly included those when they wrote the Second Amendment, even though they weren't invented until the 1940s. Fact is, the highest tech weapon at the time the Second Amendment was adopted was a muzzle-loaded musket.
(Here's a link to the article headlined above.)
Michele Bachmann Turns Huma Abedin's Life into a Horror Show
Michele Bachmann, trying to score points with her whacked-out base, has turned Huma Abedin's
life into a horror movie. Abedin is a top adviser to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the wife of former New York Senator Anthony Weiner:
Anthony Weiner's wife Huma Abedin has been placed on close watch after being threatened by a New Jersey man.
The typically press shy Abedin made headlines last week after [Republican] Rep. Michele Bachmann claimed that her family had connections to Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood.
Now police have been forced to place extra security around the wife of the disgraced former Congressman after a man, who is thought to be Muslim, threatened her.
The unidentified man has been questioned by police but has not charged, according to the New York Post.
Bachmann, who rose to national prominence during her failed bid for position of this year's Republican presidential candidate, alleged that Ms Abedin's deceased father, mother, and brother are connected to the Muslim Brotherhood, the controversial political opposition group who often works against American interest in Arab states.
Touting her role on the House Intelligence Committee, Representative Bachmann wrote a letter, which was co-signed by four other congressmen,alleging that given Ms Abedin's highly-sensitive position as as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's top advisor, she is effectively a national security threat.
In the letter, which was sent to the deputy inspector general of the State Department and the Director of National Intelligence among others, Mrs Bachmann and her co-signers gave no traces of evidence of their findings.
But former presidential candidate Senator John McCain spoke passionately about Ms Abedin's years of dedicated public service and denounced the senseless character attacks that were made by some of his more conservative party members.
Now, thanks to Bachmann's baseless, McCarthy-like attack on Ms. Abedin, Ms. Abedin is living in fear.
Michele Bachmann is the terrorist in this case.
James Holmes Speaking
The Guardian has published a short video showing Colorado shooter James Holmes speaking:
A six-year-old video shows Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes speaking at a science camp at Miramar College in San Diego when he was 18. Holmes, accused of killing 12 people at a cinema in Aurora on Friday, is presenting a project on what he describes as 'an illusion that allows you to change the past.'
I can't get it to embed so go here to see it.
He looks and sounds like a perfectly normal brainiac kid to me.
More Crazy Weather
This time in Phoenix:
While dust storms are fairly typical this time of year in the Desert Southwest, Saturday's event was the most significant of the season so far.
A large dust storm and or Haboob enveloped the greater Phoenix, Ariz. area in a cloud of yellow-gray blowing dust late Saturday afternoon as monsoon-driven storms developed across the region.
Wow. Look at that thing. I bet it deposits dust particles in every nook and cranny it passes over. Ugh.

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA): Rename Waters Off the Entire U.S. Coast After Ronald Reagan
This is not a joke:
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) is floating legislation that would name most U.S. coastal waters after former President Ronald Reagan.
Issa reintroduced his bill Wednesday to rename the country's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), which generally extends from three miles to 200 miles offshore, as the Ronald Wilson Reagan Exclusive Economic Zone.
The late Reagan, a Californian like Issa, established the EEZ with a 1983 presidential proclamation that declared the nation's sovereign rights for exploring, exploiting and conserving offshore resources, including energy.
Issa, who chairs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, has introduced the bill multiple times in past sessions of Congress.
Under the proposal, references to the EEZ in U.S. laws, regulations, maps and other documents would carry Reagan's name.
If crazy Issa has introduced this bill "multiple times" in past sessions of Congress, it must not be all that popular so I'm not holding my breathe on this one but it does go to show the kinds of things Republicans are thinking about, you know, as opposed to creating jobs.
