Sabre 42- comments appreciated vs IP
I have been narrowing down to IP35 and 38s, we are a couple heading out for two years to the Caribbean and the second year across the Atlantic and back with the ARC. I went on my brokers Sabre 34 Sunday and liked the build quality. I happened to see a Sabre 42 for sale in the same price range as the IP 35 and 38s I've seen. The Sabre is the shallow draft edition and the space and layout seem very comparable to the IP38. I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on comparing these boats or just general thoughts on the Sabre 42. I believe the Sabre may sail a little better in lighter winds and the 42 looks like it is big enough to get over some of the light tankage issues of smaller Sabres. Thanks for your thoughts!
Its like comparing the tortoise to the hare.
Sabre build quality is traditionally excellant. True American sucess story. IP are also built well....like tanks.
IP- Full keel...stable, protected rudder, Good tankage, slow performer to windward
Sabre- Performance sailbaot
build and repair quality are great in the Sabre, but I am partial - owned a 38 for a few years. Sabre boats sail extremely well, are easy to sail and can be rigged for shorthanded sailing.
IP's were a bit pricey compared to the competition when I looked closely at them in early 2000, but well built and seemed to have been designed with maintenance in mind. Good tankage and as Chef says built like tanks. Although I don't like the "off white" color...many do. My slipmate loves his 38, and doesn't need to leave the cockpit to sail. Well built boats.
Either would be great,
Whether it will when fully laden for a multi-year sabbatical, is another story. Some of that advantage will probably be lost when the Sabre gets heavily loaded.
As said, both boats have strong reputations. There are also some strong opinions about whether those reputations are deserved, particularly when it comes to I.P. You tend to hear a lot of negative feedback about them, from people who feel they can't sail for beans. But plenty of owners have defended their sailing ability, and there's no question that they have taken their owners far and wide in comfort.
One thing that would concern me a bit about that Sabre, is the spade rudder combined with the shallow draft keel. Speaking personally, that is not my ideal combination for ocean voyaging. But some would say that the I.P. keel/rudder combo is not much better. (I.P.'s rudder configuration is essentially a spade rudder connected to the full keel by a metal plate.)
That is a wonderful trip you're planning. Have you looked at any other boats beyond I.P. and Sabre?
P.S. Welcome to Sailnet!:) :)
Thank you for all the great comments, I never expected such quick and well thought out replies! I will be leaving in February and so my search admittedly was a little limited as I don't have a lot of experience in this size of boat. I know that ideally one would take a year or two looking and narrowing down, but with my schedule, that is not really a possibility. We have a couple years to get out and do it before needing to be back. A friend has an IP42 and used to have a 38, that is where I started looking and though there are plenty of comments on their lack of 'speedy' sailing, I do like the fact that they are generally considered very safe, as 'chef2sail' said, tank-like. We are on a long cruise, so comfort and safety are top of the list, but it would be nice to get some speed as well. I sailed an IP35 this weekend and it certainly was a stable and solid boat, but it was a very light wind day and I can see where the comments about light-wind motoring come from, but like I said, definitely impressed with the quality of the boat. On Sunday I got on the Sabre and really enjoyed that as well, but that was a 34, and I'm sure quite a different boat than the 42 I saw online. The closest Sabre is a good 10 hour drive away, which is why getting some opinions is so helpful at this point.
I've tried to do a good bit of research online, and have read tons of advice on boats at certain price boats, but when I pull up the specs, many are not under 6' drafts and I am looking for a boat without a canoe stern, which knocks out a lot of the often-touted boats like the Valiant. Undeniably a great boat, and one of the most proven blue-water boats ever, just everyone has their opinions on visual appeal. I'm trying to stay around the 120k mark with another 20k for refits before going. If I can get it for less, even better. :)
Like I said, I think that ideally one would have more time to narrow things down, but with my situation I have tried to pick some boats that have a good reputation and also a fair number of examples that are for sale in that general price point. Again, thank you all for your thoughts, they are all very helpful!
It would be pretty easy to find a boat without a canoe stern -- since those are generally more the exception than the norm. Perry and Crealock drew most of them, but there are some others too like those designed by Gillmer and offered by Southern Cross.
I am curious about the < 6' draft requirement. Is it hard and fast, i.e. do you have a specific destination that is constrained by depth, or is your homeport shallow? A limitation of 6' draft won't hamper you too much in the 30-40+' range, but as the boats get longer/larger their performance will be increasingly hampered by shoal draft limitations. A lot of 40 footers come out a bit over 6' draft, so you lose a big swath of candidates when you have a hard cut-off like that.
Also, how many crew will be aboard? Is this a family sabbatical, or a just a couple? I ask, because with your budget and the size range of boat you are looking at, you will be restricted to some older boats. Whereas, if you do not truly need the space of a 40-footer, you could look at some mid-30-footers and come out with a newer boat. Smaller will be less costly to equip and re-fit, too.
Anyway, we have some lists running around here where folks have recommended boats for bluewater sailing, and also for bluewater sailing at a price point. I'll try to dig some up and post links here for you. I guess my point is there are lots of options out there besides Sabre and I.P. If you have alittle time it may be worth it to consider some other possibilities.
The perfect $100k circumnavigator
Dreaming of Bluewater
Offshore Cruising Boat List
check out Calibers. 5 ft draft, great blue water cruisers and they sail MUCH better than IP's though they are heavy boats and won't sail as well as a Sabre (but that is true of most cruising boats). I always thought Sabres were beautiful sailboats
I second the Calibers. I like the Valiants also, but the canoe sterm appears to be an issue. Both boats have a turn of speed with good diplacement.
JohnRPollard- yes, planning on heading out in February 2011, just the two of us. The under 6 feet is based on where I will be keeping it in Florida and also for the Bahamas. I started out in the mid thirties with the IP 35 and 38, then when I saw that Sabre 42, and even the 38, I just think they are beautiful boats and everyone seems to hold their sailing ability in high regard. I appreciate you posting those links and I've read through them all. I have read quite a few of your posts on here, and if there are any particular suggestions, I'd certainly research them. I know it can get a bit old having people constantly post these sorts of questions on here, but hopefully after I'm through this process I'll have a chance to contribute back down the line. :) I am trying to narrow down to just a few manufacturers and boats to keep from getting overwhelmed in the search, and since I will probably be looking to sell it in about 3 years when I return, getting a boat with a good reputation and resale potential is part of the equation. I've probably gone through that Mahina list about 50 times and done searches on yachtworld for all different makes on that list, but often feel like I'm searching in the dark. Being in Atlanta, Ga. there aren't exactly a lot of boats nearby, so every time we take a quick trip on our weekends to check a few out it's 700 bucks on airfare and hotels. That's another reason why we are trying to narrow down to a few boats so that we can go see one, and at least have a feel for them without making 20 trips to see all different styles of boats. Hope this post wasn't too long and thank you again.
Thanks for all the comments on the calibers as well, much appreciated.

Kim Kardashian Gives Teen "Best Moment" Of Her Life at Kanye West Concert (PICS)
Kim Kardashian gave a teenage fan the "best moment" of her life at Kanye West's concert in New Orleans on Thursday, inviting the girl and her friend to sit with her in the show's VIP section. The super fan, who goes by the handle @MyleezaKardash, tweeted that she'd be looking for Kardashian at the concert, and noticing the message, the reality star responded, "I'm sending someone to go get you so you can come sit with me!!! Need your seat # & section. DM me ASAP!!!
Myleeza documented the amazing night on Twitter, telling followers, "Kim's security came to get me & [my friend] Sara and when we got to the VIP section…Kim immediately stood up and waved for us and said, 'Hey Myleeza! Thank you for coming!" After the show, Kardashian took the college sophomore and her pal backstage to meet West, whom Mylezza said was "so nice" and "hugged us both." Myleeza added that when they parted ways at the end of the night, "Kim said, 'Bye Myleeza! Thank you guys so much for coming!' I said, 'No, thank YOU sis! I love you! And she said, 'I love you too!' THE END! BEST MOMENT OF ALL MY 19 YEARS OF LIVING."

I just put a recoil reducing knox stock on my defender 1300 last week and the better half loves it now. She could barely tell the difference between birdshot and regular OO buck.
The stock really works for us. She used to have a hard time (and did better with the Saiga 12) before I installed it.
Good luck finding what works thats half the fun.

Despite the down economy and budget problems for most governmental agencies, there are a number of big projects in the area still moving forward. The Milwaukie Light Rail Project – an extension of TriMet's Green Line into Milwaukie from Portland State University – is slated to receive $200 million in funding from the Obama Administration through the New Starts program. With these funds, and others obtained thus far, the project is moving full steam ahead with acquisition of private property. TriMet's appraisers are contacting property owners within the rail corridor to set appointments for appraisal inspections, and many offers have already been made by TriMet. Construction is scheduled to start this year.
The Columbia River Crossing (replacement of the I-5 bridge between Portland and Vancouver) continues to be in the news as stakeholders consider the bridge type. With a goal of construction starting in 2013, property acquisition is not that far off if the project can stay on schedule. The Final Environmental Impact Statement is on track to be released this year.
Also of note and gaining traction again is the Newberg-Dundee Bypass Project, which has been in the planning stages for over 20 years. With funding from the 2009 State Legislature now available in 2011, ODOT has been actively acquiring property within the Phase I area. Phase I will ultimately result in a two-lane limited access road connecting Highway 99W southwest of Dundee to Highway 219 south of Newberg.
Local utility companies are also busy as of late with their own projects. Bonneville Power Administration's I-5 Corridor Reinforcement Project is currently working to release a Draft Environmental Impact Statement later in the year, after which BPA will hold public meetings to discuss all of the route alternatives currently on the table. While the agency does not plan to announce the final transmission line route until 2013, the time to potentially influence the project's location is this year.
Portland General Electric's Cascade Crossing Project is also in the works, with the environmental review and permitting process currently underway and scheduled to last another two years. PGE is indicating that private property, or right-of-way, acquisition will begin this year; however the debate between the proposed and alternate corridors from Boardman to Salem continues.
Other statewide projects proceeding with plans for private property acquisition in the near future include the Murphy Road Corridor project in Bend, the Glen Creek Road NW at Wallace Road NW Intersection Widening project in Salem, and the Salem-Keizer School District's acquisition of property for a new elementary and middle school in west Salem.

Urbina deal pays off
Setup man Ugueth Urbina has been the ultimate team player this season for the Marlins.
Updated: October 8, 2003, 2:37 PM ETBy Tom Candiotti | Special to ESPN Insider
Give credit to the Florida Marlins' front office. If the Marlins can hold on to their lead in the NL wild-card race, a wise midseason deal will be a big reason why.
When it became clear that the Texas Rangers would be shopping reliever Ugueth Urbina before the trade deadline, the prevailing thought in baseball circles was that big-market clubs like the New York Yankees or Boston Red Sox would get him. So it surprised many observers when Florida landed the 29-year-old right-hander.
Urbina was Texas' closer, and the Marlins already had a closer, Braden Looper. But when you add a relief pitcher of Urbina's caliber, it shortens the game, closing the opponent's window of opportunity.

Falcons Defeat Michigan, 15-12, in ECAC Contest
March 29, 2014
USAFA, Colo. - Senior captains Mike Crampton (Kinnelon, N.J.) and Kyle Cassady (Upper Arlington, Ohio) combined for 13 points to lead the Air Force lacrosse team to a 15-12 victory over ECAC foe Michigan on Saturday afternoon.
For the second-straight week, Crampton tallied four goals and three assists to pace the Falcons' offense. With his performance, Crampton moved into a tie for 10th place on the Falcons' all-time goal scoring list, now with 101 career goals. He becomes the first Air Force player since 1994 to reach 100 goals for his career. Meanwhile, Cassady also had a standout game for the Falcons, scoring a career-high six points (3g, 3a) with his second hat trick of the season.
Air Force got out to a quick start, scoring just six seconds into the contest as senior captain Erik Smith (Golden, Colo.) won the opening face-off to feed Crampton for the first goal of the game. The Falcons tacked on two more goals in the next two minutes before Michigan got on the scoreboard at the 12:11 mark, while Crampton tallied his third score (the 100th of his career) less than four minutes into the game.
The Falcons added two more goals--one from freshman Austin Smith (Golden, Colo.) and one from junior Keith Dreyer (Malvern, Pa.)--to take a 6-1 advantage with 6:38 remaining in the first quarter, while the Wolverines notched a score in the final minute of the period.
Michigan picked up momentum early in the second quarter, tallying three straight scores to cut the margin to one goal. However, Air Force notched three goals--including a pair from senior Tommy McKee (Holt, Mich.) in the final five minutes of the half--to take a 9-5 lead into the intermission.
Cassady scored the first two goals of the second half to give Air Force its largest advantage of the game, but the Wolverines responded with two scores of their own, including a man-up goal midway through the period, to bring the deficit down to 11-7. However, goals from Dreyer and Crampton gave the Falcons a 13-7 edge heading into the final stanza.
The Wolverines were still not done fighting, scoring two goals in the first minute and a half of the fourth quarter. Erik Smith added his second goal of the game with just under 13 minutes to play to push Air Force's margin back to five. After a seven-minute scoreless drought for both teams, Michigan tallied a man-up score with 5:27 remaining and added another goal a minute later. The Wolverines got as close as two goals down the stretch, finding the back of the net with 28 seconds on the clock, but Air Force closed out the game with the first goal of the season by sophomore Danny Brown (Mooresville, N.C.) with just seven seconds remaining.
Michigan outshot Air Force for the game, 50-37, with the biggest difference coming in the fourth quarter, taking 20 shots compared to just eight for the Falcons. The Wolverines also had the edge on face-offs, with specialist Brad Lott winning 17-of-30 draws for Michigan. Meanwhile, Air Force's goalkeepers--sophomores Brett Dadiego (Baldwin, N.Y.) and Doug Gouchoe (Concord, Mass.)--combined for 13 saves.
McKee finished with three goals and an assist to help Crampton and Cassady on the offensive end, while Dreyer (2g, 1a) and Erik Smith (1g, 2a) added three points each. Leading Michigan's offense was Kyle Jackson, who registered three goals and an assist, while David McCormack added three goals.
"We got off to a good start," said Air Force head coach Eric Seremet. "We were very efficient in our shooting early on. We made a few mistakes down the stretch, but fortunately we created that early cushion and we grinded it out. We're a grind-it-out team--we're not a team that anything is going to come easy for. We're going to have to work and our guys stepped up when they needed to."
"We gave our two game balls to Mike Crampton and Kyle Cassady," continued Seremet. "Kyle had a great game--he really stepped up today. He's always steady for us, but today he took it to another level."
With the win, the Falcons move to 6-3 on the season and 2-0 in the ECAC, while the Wolverines fall to 4-7 overall and 1-1 in the league. Air Force also extends its win streak to four games and clinches a berth in the ECAC Lacrosse League tournament, which will be held in Columbus, Ohio, May 1 and 3.
Air Force is back in action next Saturday, April 5, for a non-conference contest against Mercer. The game is slated to begin at 12:00 p.m. in Falcon Stadium.

As I understand it, -quaids- (SJ 12-3) does not itself always require
space for more than 2,048 variables, but evidently your problem does.
What does

The number of observations is immaterial here; you can't trade
observations for variables if you have Stata/IC and are fighting the
limit of 2048 variables.
But are _all_ your variables involved in your QUAIDS problem? That
sounds difficult to believe. Can you -drop- some of them?

text: You may draw up to nine additional cards (i.e. a total of 11 cards) as long as the value of your hand does not exceed 21. If you go over 21 this is called a 'bust' and you automatically lose the hand. If you have not yet exceeded 21 after receiving eleven cards you will automatically stay and the dealer will play his hand. The dealer must stand on all 17 and draw on 16. If the Dealer gets Blackjack after you have Split or Doubled your entire wager (both original and Double or Split amounts) are lost.Face cards (the Jack, Queen and King) all have a value of ten in Blackjack. If you beat the dealer with a Blackjack you are paid out at 3 to 2. If you receive two cards of the same value (such as two 'Ace's or two fives or two tens) you may 'Split' your hand. This means that your pair is divided into two separate hands. You wager a second amount equal to that of your original wager on the second hand and are able to play both hands as normal. Cards of the same value but not of the same denomination (or ranking) cannot be split in this version of Blackjack. So while a king and ten may have the same numerical value a hand consisting of these two cards cannot be split because the cards do not have the same denomination. If you have split a pair of aces and then draw a card with a value of ten then this is not counted as Blackjack. Such a hand would have a value of 21. It will beat any dealer's hand with a value of less than 21 and draw against all other Dealer hands except a Blackjack. This rule also applies to splitting pairs of cards with a value of ten. If you split a pair of tens (or face cards) and then receive an ace this hand is not counted as Blackjack. If the value of your initial two cards is 9, 10 or 11 then you are allowed to 'Double.' This is a wager that your next card will be sufficient to beat the dealer's as-of-yet-uncompleted hand. The wager costs as much as your original bet, but if you win you will be paid double of your total wager (or four times your original wager).Insurance only covers your original bet. It does not cover any Double Down bet. When the dealer is dealt an 'Ace' you are given the option to place an insurance bet. The Insurance bet costs half your original bet and will pay out 2 to 1 if the dealer gets Blackjack. You loose your original bet. If the dealer does not get Blackjack you loose your insurance bet and the game proceeds as normal.After all hands have been played your hands are compared to the dealers hand. If the value of both hands are the same it is called a Push. On the event of a Push you receive your bet back and no one wins. Blackjack (which value is 21) beats a hand that's value is also 21. If both the dealer and you have Blackjack this is considered a Push.Please Note - This version of Blackjack is played with a single deck of cards, which is shuffled after the completion of every hand / game.

Guillermo del Toro Says Warner Bros. Planning "Entire DC Universe"
Posted on Tuesday, November 12th, 2013 by Germain Lussier
At the movies, Marvel is currently kicking DC's ass. Yes Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight movies were fantastic. Zack Snyder's Man of Steel was a very strong start to the development of a potentially bigger world. But Marvel is already in Phase 2 of a cinematic universe, is setting up Phase 3, has a TV show that ties in on the air, with four more shows announced.
DC has Arrow, with a version of the Flash set to debut on that show, but those guys are unrelated to the big-screen heroes. Then there's Batman vs. Superman on the horizon, but besides some rumors of hypothetical Flash and Justice League films, that's it for the big screen in the near future.
If we are to believe Guillermo del Toro though, they have a very big plan, we just don't know all about it yet. The director is attached to a potential DC film called Justice League Dark, which will feature Swamp Thing, The Demon, John Constantine, Deadman, The Spectre and others. He said DC is planning an "entire DC universe" including movies, TV and more. Read More »

Teacher arrested in hit-and-run DWI
GONZALES - Police arrested a school teacher after they said she left the scene of a wreck Monday morning in Gonzales, and blew well above the legal limit for alcohol when she was finally stopped.
Sgt. Stephen Nethken with Gonzales Police said officers arrested Jaime Ingrassia on suspicion of second-offense DWI, hit-and-run, and careless operation.
Investigators said Ingrassia didn't stop after hitting another vehicle at the intersection of La. 30 and La. 44 around 10:30 a.m. They said the driver of the car she hit followed and contacted authorities, who stopped Ingrassia a short time later.
Nethken said Ingrassia blew a 0.285 on a breath test after she was stopped. The legal limit for blood alcohol content while driving in Louisiana is 0.08.
Police said Ingrassia told them she had gone to school and was sent home when the wreck happened. A representative for Ascension Christian Elementary and Middle School confirmed Jaime Ingrassia was employed there.
No one was hurt in the wreck.

my puppy was playing with a sibling an it's eye got scratched the white is bloody looking but not bleeding n not in pain
The puppy is a Mal-Shi (8 weeks) and was not the aggressor and ended up getting a scratch eye. I noticed it's eye looked dark then inspected and the white area above the iris is bloody looking. There isn't any blood coming from the eye or in the tears either. I can't tell where the scratch occured but something had to have caused it. I washed it out with warm water several times. He has not been in any pain nor is he winking or is any area of the eye swollen (eyelids, iris or white area). He is running around playing like nothing is wrong. Is this something that will go away or is he going to need antibiotics? He's not clumsy so it wasn't a running into something accident. Please let me know oh mighty ones.

Deserves at least 1 week off. I'd like to see a 2 week suspension. That was stupid, reckless, selfish and just plain moronic. Especially when you take out a guy fighting for a top 5 spot.
He basically just admitted that he dumped the guy on purpose in the interview. And then just basically goes, "well, now we're all even so I hope nothing else happens."
Sadly, Crockette's granny panties contain more nads than anyone in NASCAR.
Any doubt if it was some scrub that he'd be parked for 4 races minimum for dumping someone?
And THAT'S why I hate that Cousin Carl persona that they tried to shove down our throats. Edwards is the biggest a-hole in the sport. And yes, I know Robbie Gordon's still driving.

As Agamben ( Opus Dei: An Archaeology of Duty ) explains it, the shift from officium as status-specific behavior to something more like our conception of duty begins with the extension of officia to cover the human situation in general. This is already evident in the usage of Cicero and Seneca. In contrast to animals, human beings "conduct" ( degere ) and "govern" ( gerere ). The terms initially refer to the work of a governor, but even there attention is shifted from government specifically to "use of life" and "institution of life."
At the root of this expansion of the idea of officium is the Stoic insight into human sociabilitas. As Seneca says, "I can lay down for humankind a rule, in short compass, for our duties in human relationships ( humani officii ); all that you behold, that which comprises both god and humanity, is one - we are the parts of one great body. Nature produced us related to one another, since she created us from the same source and to the same end. She engendered in us mutual affection, and made us prone to friendship." Agamben glosses: " Officium thus constitutes the human condition itself, and human beings, insofar as they are membra . . . corporis magni . . . are beings of officium " (74-5).

I often get this question from customers: "Why does "grocery store honey" taste so bad?"
I don't really know how to answer them, I just say that sometimes if you read the print on the label of grocery store honey, it says "This contains honey from China, canada, and argentina." But that doesn't really explain the taste of it. Could it be that the nectar sources of those honeys are not the best tasting? China has alot of ailanthus trees, and ailanthus honey is said to have an unpleasant taste for some people. We have ailanthus trees here in Virginia and sometimes we get honey from that. Anyways, what could explain the unpleasant taste of "grocery store honey"? I'm sure not all honey from China, Canada, and Argentina tastes the way it does from the store.
So does anybody here know how to explain it?

Obama Beats Romney on Extremism, Not Flip-Flops: Ramesh PonnuruRamesh Ponnuru
Nov. 8 (Bloomberg) -- David Plouffe, an adviser to President Barack Obama, minced no words when he talked about Mitt Romney on "Meet the Press" last week. "He has no core," Plouffe said. "You get the sense with Mitt Romney that, you know, if he thought he -- it was good to say the sky was green and the grass was blue to win an election, he'd say it."
It's not only Democrats who take this view of the former Massachusetts governor. Conservative columnist George Will recently blasted Romney as a "recidivist reviser of his principles" and claimed he was "becoming less electable" as a result. Former Utah governor Jon Huntsman, who is also running, says that Romney is "unelectable against Barack Obama" because he is "on too many sides of the issues of the day."
Romney's history of flip-flopping is indeed extensive. He has changed positions on everything from global warming to abortion to gun control. But this record may not end up being the electoral liability that Plouffe and Will and Huntsman think.
We know that Obama can't run a campaign based on his record of hypothetical accomplishments. ("Things would have been even worse without me!") That's a formula for defeat. He will have to run a negative campaign against the Republican nominee.
If Romney is that nominee, attacking his flip-flops will be a tempting strategy. Democrats could portray him as weak, untrustworthy and phony -- to suggest, as Plouffe did, that Romney is no leader. President George W. Bush used John Kerry's flip-flops in just that way in 2004, and Kerry had fewer of them than Romney does.
Romney, Extremist
But there's another line of attack that will also be tempting: that Romney will govern as a right-wing extremist. That he yearns to dismantle environmental protections, slash Medicare and Social Security, ban abortion, and do the bidding of big business.
Obama can't get both of these messages across simultaneously. He can't make voters fear Romney's positions while also telling them he is liable to change them whenever they prove unpopular. So he is going to have to choose which attack to make central to his campaign.
They will probably drop Plouffe's line of criticism and go with the extremist charge, for three reasons. The first is that it packs more punch. Voters may well find a flip-flopper preferable to a failure. Republican attacks on Bill Clinton's ideological flexibility may have reduced people's respect for him, but they also sent the reassuring message that he wasn't a dangerous zealot. Arguing that Romney has an extreme agenda, on the other hand, won't give him a similar advantage with swing voters.
Second, the attack on Republicans as right-wing extremists is what the base of the Democratic Party wants to hear. They think Republicans are a bunch of ultraconservative lunatics; they want their leaders to say so; and they will be frustrated if they don't. Catering to this desire will help Obama and his team keep the base motivated to vote.
Third, full Republican control of the government will be a possible result of the 2012 elections. If Republicans take the presidency, they are likely also to keep the House of Representatives and to win a majority in the Senate. If a Supreme Court vacancy materializes, they may well give the conservative bloc a clear majority that no longer depends on the swing vote of Justice Anthony Kennedy.
The situation was different when Bush portrayed Kerry as a flip-flopper. Nobody really thought in the fall of 2004 that Democrats could take the House or the Senate. So unchecked liberal control of the government wasn't a prospect that could be used to frighten voters.
Ideology, Not Character
It will be much more plausible for Democrats to warn next year about unchecked conservative control of the government. If they do, they will be hitting the Republicans where they are weak. There is a lot of evidence that voters have lost confidence in Obama, but little evidence that they have gained confidence in Republicans. In the most recent CNN, Gallup and ABC/Washington Post polls, a majority of Americans say that they have an unfavorable impression of Republicans. They may not think the GOP can be trusted to govern.
So the stage is set for a campaign based on ideology, not character. Running that kind of campaign carries a trade-off for Obama: He runs the risk that by painting Romney as a hard-core conservative, he will persuade conservatives who have doubts about the man to vote Republican. But that's a risk worth taking, since their hostility to Obama may be enough of a motive to vote Republican already.
Romney's reputation for ideological flexibility is hurting him in the primary -- although he is still better off having made his flip-flops. If he were still pro-choice and anti-guns, he wouldn't be in contention. But those flip-flops won't be a central issue in the general election, because Obama has good reasons not to make them one.

Hi everyone,
i wan't to install ubuntu on my 16 gb usb so i can access this os only when i want it and on different laptops. I would also like this to be a complete installation accompanied with all the appropriate updates. Btw i own a notebook so i only have usb ( and no cdrom ) available. Can i just do this process with wubi file from my windows 7, by choosing the usb partition?
Thanks a lot
How-To Geek Forums / Linux
install ubuntu on usb(4 posts)
Hi everyone,
There are a number of guides available on how to do it, just do a Google for 'ubuntu live usb'. I think the problems come with the updates because when you install/run Ubuntu it immediately updates itself, but I don't think there's a ready updated package.
You Really need a USB 3 Stick,
You have to download pendrive linux, then you can download an iso from there.
Note this will create a live usb just like a linux cd and not an actual os drive as such, but you can still boot from it.
Thank you for your responses but i think i read somewhere about a method creating an actual os in the usb. I will give it a shot and let you know!

The New York Academy of Sciences
Presented by the Chemical Biology Discussion Group
This event is full. Register now for the live webinar.
Stem cells are of increasing importance as a research tool and as a therapeutic option for degenerative diseases. Small molecules have the potential to impact stem cell research in numerous ways. First, stem cells can be used to generate otherwise rare cell types for high-throughput screening of small molecules. Second, small molecules can be used to induce differentiation of stem cells down specific lineages. Third, small molecules can be used to create scaffolding materials that regulate stem cell function and increase the facility of culturing stem cells. Finally, it may be possible to create small molecules that regulate the endogenous stem cells in humans as a therapeutic option. This symposium will explore the intersection of small molecules and stem cells.
*Reception to follow.

The New York Academy of Sciences
Harvard University
Dr. Eggan completed his bachelor's degree in microbiology at the University of Illinois in 1996. A two-year Pre-Doctoral internship at Amgen at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda solidified his desire to pursue a career in academic research. He enrolled at the graduate school of Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1998 shortly after the cloning of Dolly the Sheep was reported in Scotland. During his PhD training, he actively pursued projects focused on cloning, stem cells and reprogramming after nuclear transfer under the guidance of genetics pioneer, Dr. Rudolf Jaenisch. He stayed in Dr. Jaenisch's lab after his graduation for one-year of PostDoc training in 2002. During that time, he conducted a collaborative study with Dr. Richard Axel, a Nobel Prize winner at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. In 2003, he moved to Harvard University as a junior fellow and then became an assistant professor of Molecular & Cellular Biology at the Stem Cell Institute in 2005. In 2012, Dr. Eggan received tenure and is now a full professor with the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology.
As a young investigator in the burgeoning field of stem cell biology, Dr. Eggan has garnered international recognition for his seminal work and a number of high profile awards for his creativity and productivity, including the MacArthur Foundation "Genius Grant" in 2006. His current research focuses on applying the knowledge gained in stem cell biology to studying the mechanisms underlying amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and discovering new therapeutic targets. He made a significant impact in the field by publishing two high profile papers in Cell, Stem Cell, and Science in 2008. One paper described the discovery that motor neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells are susceptible to the toxic effect of glial cells harboring an ALS mutation while the other shows that induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells generated from adult skin cells of ALS patients can be differentiated into motor neurons. In 2009, he was selected as one of 50 Howard Hughes Medical Institute Early Career Scientists who will receive six years of dedicated support to conduct transformative research. He will use this support to advance the use of both human embryonic stem cells and iPS cells in the study of ALS study and the development of new treatments.

Hi Olivier,
Thank you for the message. Unless I'm mistaken this issue can be resolved by setting the MdiMergeStyle property to Always. Please review the MergeRibbon Issue thread about a similar problem for more information. Please let me know if you need any additional assistance in this regard.
Hi Olivier,
This issue is caused by the fact that in the XtraForm the RibbonControl belongs to the LayoutControl. Before merging occurs, the RibbonControl's FindMDIRibbon method is called, which searches the RibbonControl through the MDI child form's controls (via its Controls property). So, this method finds only the LayoutControl, and returns null.
You can resolve this issue by using the following approaches:
1. Create your own RibbonControl and override the FindMDIRibbon method.
2. Add the RibbonControl to the XtraForm.Controls collection.
Please try this approach, and let me know if this helps you.

'Talented' Kate Winslet hard to write role for
Kate Winslet is "so talented" it is hard to write a role for her.
Scott Z. Burns - who wrote the script for Steven Soderbergh's 'Contagion' starring Kate alongside Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow - admits he was so involved with the production of the film he was allowed to add scenes to the pandemic thriller to accommodate the Oscar-winning beauty's talent.
He said: "Kate Winslet's character - I mean, Kate Winslet is so talented that it's hard as a writer. Steven allows me to be on the set the entire time and I'm very involved with the whole process throughout, so I could sit there and go, 'Wow, you know what? It'd be great to do another scene with Kate. We have her for another day. Let's come up with something else.' "
However, Scott admits the film - which tells the tale of a pandemic killing millions of people across the world with no known cure - was hard to shoot because of the conflicting schedules of all of the film's main stars.
He added to ComingSoon.net: "We shot every storyline through and then put them together. Because of people's schedules, that's the only way you can really shoot a movie like this is we started in Hong Kong and did Marion Cottilard's part for two weeks. Then we went to Chicago and we started shooting Laurence Fishburne's part and then Kate Winslet's part and then Matt came in."
'Contagion' is set to come to cinemas next month.

Even more disturbing, it seems that CSE deliberately targeted Canadian IP addresses in violation of the law and contrary to repeated government assurances. They then cross-referenced the IP addresses of file-hosting users with other databases to learn the identity of these users. So basically, ending up as a target for in-depth surveillance could be as easy as clicking on a link.
What if Edward Snowden was Canadian? Would his sacrifice have been for naught? The government is spying on Canadians without warrants and nobody seems to care. As a child, I was taught that a democracy cannot invade the privacy of its citizens without consulting a court. As an adult, I fear we are no longer living in a democracy. But Canadians are not powerless. It's time to get angry.
More and more often, we are reading in the news about the federal government and various intelligence and law enforcement agencies allegedly "spying" on aboriginals and pipeline opponents. I am both of those things. I have no idea whether strangers are picking up shards of information from my emails and text messages. I have no idea what kind of beautiful stained-glass mosaics their imaginations might create.
The idea of a stranger listening to our phone calls, monitoring our Internet searches, reading our emails, trawling our social media accounts. These things are not only possible, but thanks to government fear mongering feeding our increased tolerance for supervision in a post-9/11 world, they're also entirely legal. Welcome to modern Canada.


text: Went to the drags the other night and there was this sweet E55 running 12.95@111mph, The thing just had insane top end. So it lines up against a late 80s possibly early 90s beat looking civic hatch. Light turns green and the civic pulls off a 13.0@113mph and the E55 runs a 13.1@110. It was funny seeing an old beat civic take out the E55.

Who Gets The Next Song Written For Their Town – Granville Or Guilderland? [POLL]
I'm still getting many more requests to write songs for towns, and it's a thrill to do it. It's great to learn about towns that are right on our doorsteps. Here are two requests that keep coming up in conversation – Granvile and Averill Park. Which will it be? It's up to you to vote, folks! First there's Granville in Washington County. I will say they have a very beautiful website. This came from a promotional video that's on there. I would definitely like to do something on this town if I can get more information about it.
Guilderland? Everyone knows Guilderland, right? Well, maybe not. Maybe there are some longtime residents there who would have some cool information about it
Again, I'm an equal opportunity ditty writer. I'll do either one. Please take the poll and may the best town win to have a song written about it for the next Your Town Thursday segment. I will read the results on Tuesday's S&R Show!

After the nights of lawlessness that have upended British society and seen 1200 alleged looters and arsonists swept off the streets, the government is also targeting a digital culprit: social media.
Governments from China to the authoritarian regimes challenged by the Arab spring have sought to control social networking sites, fearing their power to connect and organise dissidents hungry for democracy.
But Britain is weighing an unprecedented move to intervene in the personal communication of its citizens after concluding just the opposite: that social media, including BlackBerry Messenger and Twitter, are undermining its vibrant democracy.
The plan touched off an immediate firestorm in Britain's thriving social media community, igniting charges of an assault on freedom of speech. But Prime Minister
"Everyone watching these horrific actions will be struck by how they were organised via social media," Cameron said in an emergency session of Parliament on Thursday, during which he announced that officials were working with intelligence services and police to look at how and whether to "stop people communicating via these websites and services when we know they are plotting violence, disorder and criminality.
"Free flow of information can be used for good. But it can also be used for ill. And when people are using social media for violence, we need to stop them."
British police have been monitoring social networking sites – and pouncing. Authorities in England and Scotland, for instance, have arrested more than a dozen youths on suspicion of using the internet and text messages to incite unrest. In greater Manchester, hit hard by rioting on Tuesday night, the police fought fire with fire, issuing this warning from an official police Twitter account: "If you have been using social networking sites to incite disorder, expect us to come knocking on your door very soon."
The Twitter universe in Britain was among the first to respond to Cameron and irate comments flooded digital space. Spoofing Sky News – Fox News's sister network in Britain – one tweeter employed classic British humour as political statement in a fake bulletin: "Breaking: Sky News understands David Cameron has been in talks with the Chinese government to share web filter technologies."
Furthering a nascent debate over civil rights in the aftermath of the riots were additional emergency measures outlined by Cameron.
The government announced that it would start slapping "gang injunctions" – now used for adults – on underage teens, using court-ordered restraining orders to ban them, for instance, from wearing gang colours or walking around neighbourhoods with attack dogs.
Police have also been authorised to force suspicious-looking people who have their faces covered by, say, bandannas and "hoodies" – the uniform of British hooligans and gang members – to identify themselves. The government is also reviewing the possibility of curfews.
Britain's convulsion of rioting and looting began with a protest against the police handling of a killing in north London, but it soon became something much bigger: a challenge to authority that shook the political elite; and, for police, one more bleak entry in a catalogue of crisis and condemnation.
In Parliament, recalled from recess on Thursday, a chorus of lawmakers denounced the police response to the riots as incompetent. One said officers were instructed to "stand and observe looting". Cameron said he would look for help to an American expert, William Bratton, who helped reduce crime in New York City in the 1990s.
Ever since the murder of a black teenager in 1997, the British police – who once were held in affection – have been embroiled in contentious episodes ranging from the mistaken shooting of a Brazilian electrician, Jean Charles de Menezes, in the aftermath of the July 7 London subway and bus bombings in 2005, to the death of a newspaper vendor manhandled by police at a protest against globalisation in 2009.
Only weeks ago, London's Metropolitan Police, widely known as Scotland Yard, faced public questioning over a failure to fully investigate a phone-hacking scandal that led to the resignation of its two most senior officers.
Now, after images have appeared of officers standing by as parts of London burned – seemingly outwitted and outmanoeuvred by masked and hooded marauders – the police are condemned by some rioters as a cause of their rage and are also the butt of public outrage at their failure to prevent the violence from spreading.
"There were simply far too few police deployed on to our streets," Cameron said of the initial days of the riots this week, "and the tactics they were using weren't working."
As the cabinet minister responsible for policing, Home Secretary Theresa May told Parliament: "Policing by consent is the British way, but the police only retain the confidence of the wider community if they are seen to take clear and robust action in the face of open criminality." She added later that often "officers are damned if they do and damned if they don't" in cracking down on protests and riots.
The broader question, though, is: How did a national institution once held in esteem, or at least respect, by many Britons – "bobbies on the beat" to an earlier generation – become the object of such contention, even as it has taken credit for shielding the country from an array of terrorist plots?
With their tall, rounded helmets, British police officers have traditionally avoided shows of strength in favour of community policing. Most British officers still do not carry guns.
Yet, in recent years the force, overwhelmingly white, has faced accusations of racism, brutality and incompetence which it has struggled to shake off.
The story of the change in their status is one of incremental missteps as the nature of society itself has changed. Britain has become more diverse and complex in an era when the smash-and-grab crime of earlier decades has been replaced by far more sophisticated lawbreaking.
And, at the same time, the point of contact between the police and the people has been increasingly shaded with questions of race and resentment.
During the latest riots, the most violent in memory, officers were overrun by nimble, well-connected rioters using bicycles, mopeds, smartphones and social networking to organise violence and theft across the capital. At several of the riots, young men could be seen whizzing away from slowly massing riot police, only to gather elsewhere.
Across London, as people surveyed the wreckage of their homes and businesses, many complained that the police had done too little. On Wednesday, Cameron announced new plans that would allow the British police to deploy water cannons and plastic bullets. Associated Press said facial recognition software would be used to identify looters and rioters captured on cameras.
A former senior riot police officer said the riots were allowed to rage in part because police felt constrained. They operated in the shadow of the case of newspaper vendor Ian Tomlinson, who died after being shoved by a riot officer guarding at a 2009 G20 economic conference. The police officer, Simon Harwood, will go on trial for manslaughter in October.
Police officers in the elite territorial support group, who wear distinctive boiler suits and have been present at most of the unrest, "know they've got to be very careful", the former officer said. "Everyone is filming everyone, and you don't want to be locked up." Water cannons and plastic bullets are "more for PR among politicians" and would probably not be effective against the fast-moving rioters. A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police quotes the acting head of the force, Tim Godwin: "We police by consent, that's the situation that's always been and it will continue that way."
A solicitor, Jules Carey, for the Ian Tomlinson Family Campaign said by email that the police should restore order "using lawful and proportionate force".
Others suggest that more aggressive policing to control riots would lead to further problems. "The ones who are going to get beaten up are young people from minority communities," says Rob Berkeley, a director of Runnymede Trust, a research organisation that focuses on racial equality.
Despite efforts to hire more diverse officers, many people still feel they are "underprotected and oversurveyed", Berkeley says. Extensive police stop-and-search powers are an area of tension. "If you police by consent, trust is crucial. And these communities don't trust the police to protect them, or to treat them fairly."
Metropolitan Police figures from May 2011 show three times as many black and Asian people were stopped and searched in London as all other ethnicities combined, although they are only a quarter of the city's population. The Met spokesman says officers operate within national guidelines and they must have a suspicion of crime before searching. He says 9.6 per cent of officers are now black or minority ethnic, and the police "remain committed to having a diverse workforce".
But at the riots in Tottenham and Hackney in recent days, several rioters cited a hatred of the police, and their perceived racism, as motivating the violence. One young man in Hackney shouted at the officers: "You know you all racist! You know it."
