Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
Ed Kilgore examines Mitt Romney's options in the foreign policy debate tonight:
Consider the advice offered to Romney for tonight's debate by the New York Times' Bill Keller. Here are the headlines: (1) Go easy on Benghazi; (2) Say Something nice About the Palestinians; (3) Extend a hand to Mohamed Morsi; (4) Concede that the war in Iraq was a mistake; (5) Don't rush into Syria; (6) Open the door to a deal with Iran; (7) Apply some Bain rigor to defense; and (8) Cool it on China.
....But how does a presidential candidate who has repeatedly and heatedly and redundantly defined America's interests in the Middle East as identical with those of Bibi Netanyahu do (2) and (6)? How does the nominee of a party whose base is for the most part quite happy with the idea of American foreign policy being organized around a straight out war against Islam going to do (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), or (6)? Can a candidate who's been running around Hampton Roads telling voters that they'll all starve if the defense budget is allowed to decline an iota suddenly get Bain-ish on Pentagon spending?
Ed, Ed, Ed: where has your right and proper cynicism gone? Of course Romney will do most of these things. How? Why, he'll just open his mouth and say the words. He'll be careful not to phrase any of this stuff in the form of concrete promises, but Romney is obviously dedicated to his Moderate Mitt persona when he's on a national stage, and I don't doubt that he'll find a way to extend this tonight. For the record, I don't think he'll go as far as #4, and I don't think he needs to rein in his instincts on #8, which is a fairly popular position. But the rest of them? With the proper nuances and caveats, none of them should cause him a problem. I'm not quite sure what strategy he'll pursue on Benghazi (I suspect that cooling it would be a good idea, but I'm hardly 100% sure of that), but that's the only question mark. The rest of this stuff is easy to fudge.

The Office for National Statistics said retail sales jumped by 1.9% in June compared with the previous month, and were up by 6% on the same period last year.
The monthly rise was the sharpest since November 2001, when retail sales rebounded after a sharp fall in the wake of the 11 September attacks.
The latest figures will help dispel recent fears of a sharp slowdown in consumer spending, and are likely to reinforce the case against further interest rate cuts.
"This adds to the evidence that the MPC is not going to move in August," said George Buckley, UK economist at Deutsche Bank.
The Bank of England last cut borrowing costs on 10 July, reducing the base rate by a quarter of a percentage point to a 48-year low of 3.5%.
The latest figures contrast sharply with the ONS retail sales survey for May, which revealed a 0.1% dip in sales from the previous month.
A downbeat retail sector survey from the Confederation of British Industry earlier this month triggered further warnings that the UK's long-running consumer boom was about to run out of steam.
UK consumer spending, fuelled by soaring house prices, low interest rates, and high levels of employment, has remained persistently strong over the past three years despite a downturn in the global economy.
A prolonged downturn in retail sales could signal trouble ahead for the wider economy, which now depends for much of its growth on consumers' willingness to spend.

McIlroy delights in Hong Kong return after fantastic year
FANLING, Hong Kong (Reuters) - Rory McIlroy could be forgiven for taking his foot off the gas at this week's Hong Kong Open after securing the money list titles on both sides of the Atlantic with a third-place finish in Singapore on Sunday.
However, the British world number one insists the adrenaline that flowed at September's Ryder Cup victory and his U.S. PGA Championship triumph the previous month will continue to run at one of his happiest hunting grounds.
"Back in 2005, I first came here as a junior in the Faldo Series. We stayed at the golf club and I really enjoyed the course," the defending Hong Kong Open champion told reporters on Wednesday.
"Then when I came back here as a European Tour player, I stayed in Hong Kong city and really enjoyed the buzz and the atmosphere.
"But its here at the golf course that I have had some great experiences as a player, taking part in one of the best ever playoffs against Lin Wen-tang in 2008 and then finally putting my name on the trophy last year," the 23-year-old added.
"I wasn't feeling well on the Saturday and went into the final round three behind but shot a 65, holing a bunker shot at the last, to win by two."
McIlroy admits that his love of the Fanling course was one of his main motivations to return to Hong Kong as he attempts to pick up a fifth victory of the season at the co-sanctioned Asian and European Tour event.
"It is really old school," he said. "I love the trees that frame most of the holes. You can really see your shots. There is a lot of definition. Length here doesn't matter. There won't be too many drivers used around here."
Among the sub-plots being played out this week will be the final formation of the top 60 on the Race to Dubai money list that will advance to a trip to the Emirate for next week's season-ending TP World Tour Championship. Continued...

Grand Opening Slated for Fall 2012
Sonoma State University announced today a $12 million gift for the Green Music Center from philanthropists Joan and Sanford I. "Sandy" Weill, enabling the University to complete the spectacular concert hall and adjoining lawn and commons performance venues.
This is the largest cash gift in the University's history and makes it possible to officially open the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Hall, Lawn and Commons for the 2012-2013 Season with a grand opening celebration planned for Fall 2012.
"We care deeply about the communities we live and work in," said Joan and Sandy Weill. "When we first toured the Green Music Center we were immediately inspired by the beauty, the acoustics and the wonderful potential for this spectacular arts venue."
Robert Cole, a well known arts presenter and conductor who led UC's Berkeley's Cal Performances for 23 years, has been appointed artistic consultant and will work with Jeff Langley, Artistic Director of the Green Music Center and Director of SSU's School of Performing Arts, to lead programming for the Center focusing on the finest international performing artists in a broad range of disciplines.
The Santa Rosa Symphony will be the Center's orchestra-in-residence. A handful of world class artists have already commented on the Hall's exceptional sound during private visits to sample the acoustics including Lang Lang, Fred Hersch, Ruth Ann Swenson, Chanticleer and Lee Konitz.
Designed by architect William Rawn, working closely with acoustician Lawrence Kirkegaard, the 1,400 seat Joan and Sanford I. Weill Hall is modeled after Seiji Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood and was designed to replicate the intimacy and acoustics of Vienna's Musikverein and Symphony Hall in Boston.
In addition to the concert hall, the Weill's generous gift will support the completion of two additional performance venues. The south end of the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Hall is designed with a back wall that can be fully opened onto a beautiful landscaped and terraced lawn, similar to Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood, expanding the reach of the concert hall to an additional 3,000 guests.
The Weill Commons, an area directly to the east of the main concert hall, will be transformed into an amphitheater with a 10,000 seat capacity for large-scale outdoor events. The $12 million gift includes a $4 million one-to-one challenge grant to encourage broad engagement and will complete the spectacular outdoor performance areas.
"We were impressed by what the University and the community has been able to accomplish through tenacity and determination and we are honored to join Donald and Maureen Green and the many other generous contributors who have stepped forward to help make this dream a reality," said the Weills. "There is no question that it has been a labor of love. We are passionate about education, music and the arts and we are firm believers that they can help bridge cultural divides that exist throughout the world."
"For us, philanthropy is much more than just writing a check," the Weills added. "It is donating our time, energy and knowledge to the causes we are passionate about. The Green Music Center could be a transformative project, not just for the campus but for the entire northern California community and we look forward with great anticipation to the exciting future of this world class destination."
The initial concepts for the Green Music Center began with Donald and Maureen Green's dream to establish a choral recital hall on campus and expanded into a world-class arts center after SSU President Ruben Armiñana, his wife Marne Olson and Donald and Maureen Green visited Tanglewood in the early 1990s.
These four love classical music and education, and saw the University as a future home for a music venue unmatched by any on the West Coast and beyond. They were impressed by Ozawa's acoustical perfection and intrigued by its design and set out to closely replicate it on the Sonoma State campus.
"Where else but Sonoma County could the weather be more perfect, the scenery more striking, the local food and wine finer and more celebrated," said President Ruben Armiñana. "We hoped the community would embrace this project and have not been disappointed. Donald and Maureen's leadership has been exceptional and I am very pleased that we now have a full opening planned and that, very soon, this majestic new facility will be available to all."
"I want to thank Joan and Sandy Weill, two of the country's most generous philanthropists, for their gift," said President Armiñana. "With the raising of the $4 million match from the community, we will be able to open the hall and experience the world's finest performing artists."
The Joan and Sanford I. Weill Hall, Lawn and Commons will join an already completed state-of-the-art music education building, faculty offices, and an elegant restaurant and executive retreat center. When finally complete the Green Music Center will also include the 250 seat "Schroeder's Recital Hall," named by Jean Schulz, wife of the late cartoonist Charles Schulz.
For many years, Joan and Sandy Weill have been committed to further education, healthcare, the arts and other social causes not only through their philanthropy but through their volunteer leadership.
Mr. Weill has been chair of the board of trustees of Carnegie Hall since 1991 and serves as founder and chair of the National Academy Foundation, a career-themed high school education organization he started in 1982.
Mr. Weill is chairman of the board of overseers for The Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College and Graduate School of Medical Sciences at Cornell University, having joined the board in 1982 and becoming chair in 1995. Weill Cornell established the first American medical school overseas in Doha, Qatar, in 2001 and also has an academic affiliation with Methodist Hospital in Houston, Texas.
In addition to these three organizations in which Mr. Weill serves as chair, he is also: chairman emeritus of Citigroup; trustee emeritus of Cornell University; trustee of New York Presbyterian Hospital; overseer of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center; board member of Sidra, a specialty teaching hospital for women and children that will be completed in 2012 in Qatar; board member of the Lang Lang International Music Foundation; trustee of the Gerald R. Ford Foundation; and board member of Koç Holding, headquartered in Turkey.
Joan Weill has served for the past ten years as chair of the board of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Foundation. Under Mrs. Weill's leadership, Alvin Ailey has earned a reputation as one of the most acclaimed international ambassadors of American culture. The Joan Weill School of Dance at Alvin Ailey, completed in 2005, is the nation's largest facility dedicated to dance.
Mrs. Weill is also co-chair of the advisory committee of the Weill Music Institute at Carnegie Hall; co-chair of the New York Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center's Women's Health Symposium; honorary board member and president emeritus of Citymeals-On-Wheels; and past chair of the board of trustees for Paul Smith's College of the Adirondacks.
Mr. and Mrs. Weill are recipients of the 2009 Carnegie Medal of Philanthropy Award in recognition of their philanthropic efforts. Mr. and Mrs. Weill have been married for 55 years and have 2 children and 4 grandchildren.

CR Joliette Action (EAST) 3 - Burnaby Express (PAC) 5
Round Robin
By HockeyCanada.ca |
Joliette, who kept their playoff hopes alive last night with a win over Streetsville could not cary over any momentum into Thursday's must win game against Burnaby. The result was a 5-3 loss to the Express and an early exit from the 2006 RBC Royal Bank Cup.
Burnaby opened the scoring at 13:52 of the first on a strange goal. Alex Sciangula slid it out front and the puck hit Max Grassi's skate and crossed the line. Goaltender Steve Hartley had no chance on the play as one his defenders took him out of the play after being tangled up with Grasse. All he could do was watch as the puck slid over the line. Keith Seabrook then put the Express up by two on the power-play with a hot shot from the point that beat Hartley.
Joliette tried to claw their way back in when they narrowed the lead on a power-play goal at 14:22 of the second. Joliette Captain Alexandre Lamarche banged in the rebound past Matt Gordon off a point shot from Renaud Laprise. However, Burnaby killed their momentum shortly after with their third marker of the night off the stick of Brady Cook. Grassi notched his second of the game early in the third and Cook also scored twice for Burnaby.
Joliette made things interesting with their third goal of the game to reduce Burnaby's lead to one. Sebastien Gauthier made a nice individual effort and fought off two defenceman to eventually put it top shelf on Gordon.
BURNABY: Bobby Mazerolle
GAME NOTES: Burnaby rested starting goaltender Bryce Luker while backup Matt Gordon started his first game at the RBC Royal Bank Cup … Jonathan Dick, Alexandre Lamarche and David Poulie each finished the tournament with five points to lead Joliette

The police officer got out of his car as the kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his window. 'I've been waiting for you all day,' the officer said.
The kid replied, Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could.'
When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a ticket.
A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. 'Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!'
A smart-ass student in the back of the room raised his hand and asked, 'What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?'
The entire class is reduced to laughter and snickering. When silence was restored, the teacher smiled knowingly at the student, shook her head and sweetly said, 'Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand.'
A flight attendant was stationed at the departure gate to check tickets. As a man approached, she extended her hand for the ticket and he opened his trench coat and flashed her.
Without missing a beat, she said, 'Sir, I need to see your ticket, not your stub.'

Hunting Sunsets in Mola di Bari2012-06-06 3 4 Share Tweet
What do you do when you are swept up by a huge desire to escape from the city and switch off from everyday life? I go hunting for sunsets on the beach!
You know those days when the stress of everyday life overwhelms you? Well, I'm introducing to you my personal anti-stress remedy.
When I want to feel carefree and relaxed I turn to these medicines:
-My favorite analog camera. (Alternating between the Seagull 203-l & Seagull 4A :) )
-My little lovely dogs.
-My father's Light Meter that he used when he was a young man and almost like me, was in constant search of the perfect things to photograph.
-The sea. :)
But the therapy is only effective if immersed in the magical light of the sunset!
Here are some "Anti-stress Shots":
And it's fun to capture the happiness with which my dogs are having fun on the beach:
I love the colors that this time of day gives us… Ever since I was a kid, I remained enchanted to see the variety of colors that this light is capable of generating.
And here's what comes out if you are using a Lomography X-pro slide 200 film during the sunset:
Try it too! Happy hunting!

Hi Chiara,
How about this?
sysuse auto
probit foreign price mpg
sum price
local mean_price = r(mean)
#delimit ;
twoway (function y = _b[mpg]*normden(_b[price]*`mean_price'+
_b[mpg]*x+_b[_cons]), range(mpg)) ;
#delimit cr
This plots the marginal effect of the mpg variable over its range
following a probit regression. The logic is the same with -biprobit-
but the formula for the marginal effect will of course be a little
more intricate in that case.

Corralling the Mass Maker: Hunting ground shifts for elusive particle
By Science News, 15:50 PM April 15, 2008
It was the year 2000, and scientists at a European particle collider observed possible traces of the subatomic particle known as the Higgs boson-the presumed origin of mass itself and the most-wanted quarry in high-energy physics today. Despite a feverish search for confirming evidence, they came up empty-handed (SN: 12/9/00, p. 381). Perhaps they were looking in the wrong place.
In the June 10 Nature, researchers at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Batavia, Ill., report...

There is a growing convergence of thinking about where the US Occupy movement should go as a next step to turning its values, concerns and commitments into changing what most Americans see as broken government under control of corporate interests. When it comes to political and social movements, history shows us that they usually fail not because they disappear, but rather because they become marginalized, unimportant despite a core group of committed people and groups.
They lose popular appeal and support or never expand beyond a small early group of supporters. The nation and many supporters move on. Other movements grab the interest of the most informed, dissident-type people seeking truth, justice or change. A good example of such a failed contemporary movement is the 911 truth effort. The groups, websites and true believers keep on pushing their objectives a decade after the historic event. But the goal of revealing what really happened that the official government story does not divulge is like a moldy piece of forgotten food in the refrigerator.
Movement death by inattention happens despite good resources, charismatic leaders and even great organization and communication skills. Critical mass of public support simply never materializes, in large measure because diverse segments of the population never buy into the central arguments of the movement. The Internet is littered with websites of activist groups that persist despite clear evidence of decay and wide disinterest. True believers have a mission in life tied to their egos that prevent them from admitting defeat. They do not move on.
The biggest mistake that passionate advocates for a cause make is overestimating their ability to reach critical mass and underestimating the competition of other movements with greater appeal which rob them of both attention and supporters.
Make no mistake; I totally and enthusiastically support the Occupy movement because it offers the prospect of producing reforms to fix our broken government and attracting very wide public support for a nonviolent Second American Revolution. What worries me, however, is that many of its participants seem over confident, as if they cannot fail. On the other hand, I have become impressed by a convergence of thinking about what the next big step for the Occupy movement can and should be. I will briefly identify examples of this convergent thinking.
Canadian author Erich Koch has written a compelling article: An Objective for the U.S. Occupy Movement: A Constitutional Convention. He buys into the view that the Occupy movement could embrace the thinking of Harvard Professor Lawrence Lessig who has presented the case for amendments to fix Congress. Like others Koch is correct in saying that "No one in the movement would disagree with its main point: the fundamental problem is the corruption of Congress." Unlike others, Koch recognizes the path for obtaining reform constitutional amendments is using the provision in Article V for a convention of state delegates, having the same power as Congress in proposing amendments that still must be ratified by three-quarters of the states. It has never been used despite many hundreds of state requests for a convention because, clearly, Congress and most status quo forces fear such a convention.
Koch cited a great article by Alesh Houdek: Has a Harvard Professor Mapped Out the Next Step for Occupy Wall Street? Most is a review of Lessig's book. Correctly noted about using the convention option is "it bypasses the usual means of reform (Congress, presidential elections, etc.) which the lobbyists and other interested parties have learned so well to manipulate. And lastly, such a convention would be free to propose solutions that would otherwise be subject to be stricken as unconstitutional by the Supreme Court." This is critical to understand. Houdek concludes: "Properly presented, the strategies and aims of Lessig's book could make it the handbook the protesters have been looking for — and provide a pathway for them to ride out the winter ahead."
Dan Froomkin also has presented the same case in: Lawrence Lessig's New Book On Political Corruption Offers Protesters A Possible Manifesto. He quoted what Lessig himself had said in an article about the Occupy movement and the concern that I share, namely that the Occupy movement "will become too diffuse and not focused" on the root issue of corruption of government. And that the movement will only grow "if a wide range of people can be part of it." This requires coalescing around an issue "as fundamental as the corruption of the system." Only a constitutional amendment can fix the corrupting impact of money in politics. This is also the focus of Dylan Ratigan's fine effort, except that the use of the convention path has not been emphasized.
A specific call for an Article V convention was made by the pro-Occupy US Day of Rage group: "We are organizing a coordinated national campaign at local and state levels, including where necessary the occupation of state capitols, in order to demand an article V constitutional convention be called to restore representative democracy to our nation." A set of specific reforms to be fix the corruption-money problem are presented.
The 99 Percent Declaration group has also presented an important statement centered on the call for a National General Assembly, where delegates would formulate a petition of a list of grievances that would be delivered to the main parts of the federal government on behalf of 99 percent of Americans. A suggested list of grievances includes the need for constitutional amendments to achieve solutions, but only for a few of the issues. Not explicitly acknowledged, however, is that constitutional amendments, not ordinary laws, would be necessary for other solutions, such as term limits for Congress and abandoning the Electoral College. Moreover, there is no specific recognition that serious amendment reforms will not be proposed by Congress, and that an Article V convention is needed. Inattention to method was also the shortcoming of a similar list of solutions by Ralph Lopez.
Author Scott Turow has presented: How Occupy Wall Street Can Restore Clout of the 99%. His recommendation to the Occupy movement is "work across the nation for a constitutional amendment requiring Congress to regulate the expenditure of private money on elections. … The best antidote to this imbalance of income and influence would be to greatly reduce the role of private funding in our elections. …As for the Occupy Wall Street movement, it has been criticized by some for not having a realistic agenda, even though polling shows that millions of Americans, including me, are sympathetic to the basic message of the protests." His prescription: "rally around a single goal and reinvigorate their movement." Fine, but missing from his analysis is the recognition that Congress will never propose reform amendments, only an Article V convention will do the job.
This sampling of recent writings clearly shows convergent thinking that the Occupy movement can and should focus on key reform constitutional amendments and, second, that some better informed critical thinkers recognize, this requires advocacy for using the Article V convention option that Congress has refused to honor.
As to Occupy movement success, I want again to emphasize that there is always competition for the attention and support of concerned Americans who recognize how broken our system is. In particular, the well financed Americans Elect effort is impressive. Because it is offering an alternative path to nominating a presidential candidate in 2012, over 2 million Americans have already signed up to be delegates for a web convention, with millions more very likely as the mainstream media keeps giving this effort attention. Disgust with the two-party plutocracy is surely shared by Occupy participants and supporters. But for movement success based on enticing many millions of Americans, the Occupy movement cannot ignore competition such as Americans Elect. This means that the Occupy movement must explicitly start making the case to the broad public why their effort can achieve more of what is needed. This is easily done.
Here are some key concepts that the Occupy movement could use. No matter who is nominated by Americans Elect, the odds are that either the better financed Democrat or Republican candidate will win the presidency. This may just require spending even more millions of dollars on campaigns. And whoever is nominated by the group will likely be strongly linked to one of the two major parties, rather than some courageous reformer and enemy of the status quo. Moreover, this group does not offer a realistic path to getting the key reforms of the system that most of us see critically needed, such as constitutional amendments, already recognized by many Occupy supporters.
A sign of trouble for the Occupy movement is a recent national poll that found: "In the latest survey, 33 percent voiced support for Occupy Wall Street, down from 35 percent in a previous poll, while opposition to the movement climbed from 36 percent to 45 percent. Twenty-two percent were unsure." These results are worse than earlier polls. From the left, Chris Bowers commented: "the decline in Occupy Wall Street's image is probably more connected to the increasingly negative coverage of the clashes between protesters and police than it is to declining support for movement's message." Now is the time to move the message from what is wrong to solutions, using an Occupy Congress approach. Otherwise, this view from the conservative right might prevail: "OWS will linger … but I'd argue we've seen the movement's high tide. It will now recede into a mere annoying shadow of itself as support is withdrawn by political figures and organizations."
True, Occupy movement success is not inevitable. The movement must better define what success means and how it can be achieved if it is to attract and keep the support of many millions of Americans. It needs specificity for its solutions that ordinary Americans can relate to. Never underestimate the power and commitment of status quo forces to maintain control over the political, government and economic system that has so harmed most Americans. The fight against the Occupy movement mostly seen as local police violence against peaceful demonstrators and protesters as well disinformation from some news outlets and pundits are nothing compared to what could be mounted if the movement is viewed as more threatening to the status quo delusional democracy with its delusional prosperity.Tweet

We know that when a problem is localized, small, or unique, building an automated tool is a waste of work. But we just love building automated tools - that's why we're in this line of work.

|Futile Cucumber Attempt
At first, things were very promising. Sure it was a big pain in the butt when we had a very cold June, one that required me to cover each and every one of my planters with plastic bags every night for a week while we went through an extraordinarily long frost. But I was sure it would be worth it.
Eventually, I was able to harvest tomatoes. They were late, but then, everyone's were. Summer wasn't acting very summery, and tomatoes need warmth and sunshine. The pepper plants need lots of heat too, but I could see the beginnings of peppers. We got some jalapenos and some nice Hungarian wax, but things began to take a turn for the worse.
|Pathetic Pepper (and a lousy photo, too)
For starters, the tomatillos dropped all their flowers and didn't fruit. Then the tomato plants stopped...tomatoing. Blight! Two of the four varieties aren't all blighty, but they've stopped flowering. The eggplant? Still about four inches tall. Radishes? We ate the first go 'round, and they were nice. But then they just shot straight up and didn't make anything resembling a radish. I also harvested a two-inch carrot which was tasty, but the others did nothing.
We could conjecture about the soil used (different pots have different soils, though) or the lighting (I picked the "perfect" spot according to seed packet instructions and books), watering (again, I followed instructions), etc. But the bottom line is: My vegetables aren't vegetables. They are pots of dirt with twiggy things in them.

Re-Opens to the Public on Monday, 12/17
JERSEY CITY, N.J. December 11, 2012 – 'There's no place like home'.
That's what Library Director Priscilla Gardner and all Jersey Avenue employees dispersed throughout the library system have been feeling ever since the Main Library was closed due to damages from Hurricane Sandy.
The Main Library sustained major flooding in its basement and opened only for one-and-a-half days before needing to remain closed due its poor air quality born of mold and E. coli contaminants. The basement areas were flooded with up to five feet of deep-sea water, mixed with sewerage from backed up sewers in Downtown Jersey City. All the basement spaces had to be cleaned and sanitized, with all plumbing and electrical systems repaired and all the building's interiors on the upper floors cleaned with air scrubbers. This type of work is similar to Hazmat and other de-contamination procedures, with the contracting personnel needing to wear masks and body suits. Therefore, library staff and the public could not enter the Main Library until this environmental clean up was finished.
"Since that storm, my first, and only, priority has been to get the Main Library opened as soon as possible," said Director Gardner. "To get this done before Christmas is a very special present to all Main Library staff and our ever-patient patrons."
To accomplish such an expedited remediation, Library Director Priscilla Gardner continually met with Jersey City officials, including the Office of Emergency Management and Business
Administration, and set up RFPs (requests for proposals) for competitive bidding of contractors that were reviewed with the library's Capital Improvement Manager Rudy Pleasant.
"I certainly didn't do this alone!" added the Library Director. "There were efforts beyond the call of duty that several people did, which is why they are being singled out at this time."
The people in question are: Helena Ruman, AIA, PE, architect that oversaw the remediation; library staff members Rudy Pleasant, capital improvements; Maintenance Supervisor Teresa Fairley and Assistant Supervisor Jason Hall; MIS Department; Sam Saulsberry; Library Administration and all JCFPL employees; and Public Information Officer Michele M. Dupey, MLIS; along with the contractors at CPR Restoration, who worked virtually around-the-clock to get the remediation done, with the air quality certified environmentally clean, at the Main Library.

Where is patient parking located for the MUSC hospitals?
MUSC offers patients and visitors parking in the following facilities:
For additional information on patient / visitor parking visit patientlocations.htm.
Where will I find handicap parking?
Designated handicap parking spaces are located on all floors of the visitor garages. Additional handicap parking is available on the horse shoe drive in front of the MUSC hospital located on Ashley Avenue, at the Rutledge Tower Accessible Lot, and under the Ashley River Tower.
How much does parking cost?
Self-parking for outpatients is $.75 per half hour, up to a maximum of $3 in the Ashley-Rutledge, Jonathan Lucas or Courtenay Drive garages. If parking exceeds two hours, all charges over $3 will be paid by the hospital; but to receive this courtesy the ticket must be validated by the reception staff in the area where you receive your care.
Valet parking is available for a fee of $5 at the Ashley River Tower, the Rutledge Tower, or at Hollings Cancer Center. Drive your vehicle to the main entrance of any of these buildings for valet service.
Inpatients' families and visitors may park for $.75 per half hour. The maximum daily rate (up to 24 hours) is $6. To receive the reduced rate, the visitor should provide the patient's last name and room number to the cashier when exiting the parking facility. The cashier will issue a receipt. This will allow unlimited additional exits during the 24-hour period at no charge.
I was told that some patients get free parking. Is this true?
There is an all-day rate for hospitalized patients and their families, but there is no free parking (*with the exception of handicap parkers, see below).
I understand there is no charge for parking if I have a handicap placard.
In accordance with the State of South Carolina's Code of Law, which states parking in metered or timed facilities shall be at no cost to the holders of handicap placards or plates; MUSC does not charge patients or visitors who present one of these authorizations.
The law also states that this privilege is authorized only when the mobility-impaired individual to whom the handicap plate or placard is issued is driving the vehicle or is being transported in the vehicle that is parked in the facility. If the mobility-impaired individual is not driving or being transported in the vehicle, the privileges associated with handicap parking, including free parking, is not transferable to others.
I received a parking citation while at MUSC. What shall I do?
You should call the Office of Parking Management or go to the parking office at your first opportunity. As a patient or the family member of a patient, the parking department staff will give your appeal immediate attention.
Where is the parking office located and what is their phone number?
The Office of Parking Management is located at 91 President Street on the second floor of the employee parking garage. The telephone number is 843-792-3665. Please call whenever you have any questions about parking at MUSC, or if we can assist you in any way.
Please refer to the list of visitor parking facilities for more information. You may also visit http://www.muschealth.com/parking/index.htm for additional information concerning MUSC patients and visitors.

Quilting with a Baby, Take Two
So baby #2 has arrived (a little boy–Josiah), and I decided to introduce him to the quilting world as early as possible. Two and a half years ago, I brought baby #1 (Thomas) into my sewing studio less than a week after he was born, figuring I'd get him used to it early. Thomas was not a huge fan of my studio. Well, that's not exactly true—he loves pushing buttons on the sewing machine, trying to get his hands on scissors and rotary cutters…if it's dangerous or expensive and in my room, it catches his eye. And lately, he's been intrigued with my rulers, using them to measure his feet (see photo below). But the other problem was that Thomas was not a huge fan of having to share my attention with something else. For the last two years or so, any sewing I've done has been during naptime or after bedtime.
I needed to try another approach with this new little one to get him started on the right path. So…when he was about a week old, I took him to a quilt shop to buy some fabric.** Shortly after we walked in the door, a few ladies oohed and aahed over Josiah and then scolded me for taking him out in public before he was a month old. So if that was your initial reaction, rest assured, I've been advised.
He was tucked away in a sling, cozy as could be, while I perused the aisles and mom helped me choose fabric for five different Christmas stockings. Mission accomplished! I've decided to take his contentedness in the quilt shop as a sign that he'll be on board with the quilting world, and not just that he's only a week old and only cares about sleeping and eating at this point. We'll see how long that keeps up…
**My biggest motivation for going fabric shopping with a newborn was that my mom was in town, and I needed to purchase some fabric for Christmas stockings. We don't get to shop together that often, and I wanted her opinion on what to buy. Since the baby isn't on a feeding schedule yet, he got dragged along.

Roe v. Wade stands as the most upheld Supreme Court constitutional precedent in our history. In the 33 years since the Supreme Court found that a constitutional right to privacy includes a woman's right to obtain an abortion, this precedent has been upheld 38 times. Whether you agree with the precedent set by Roe v. Wade, you should be alarmed that our newest Supreme Court nominee, Samuel Alito, has indicated he does not feel bound by Supreme Court decisions and precedents.
The next issue and precedent threatened by the increasingly political decision-making process of our Supreme Court just may be the one you care about.
In 1985, Alito said the Constitution does not protect a right to an abortion. In his confirmation hearing last week, he said nothing to indicate he had changed his position on this matter, nor did he feel compelled to say that his job would be to uphold the Constitution in this matter.
To those who support handgun possession: Imagine your incredulity if a Supreme Court nominee had been quoted in the past as saying, "I do not believe that the Constitution protects the right to bear handguns" and yet today said that he was competent to handle the issue "with an open mind." I'm fairly certain you would not stand for that.
Again, putting aside the specific issue at hand, are any of us comfortable that our Supreme Court justices can now base their decisions not on constitutional precedent but on the political climate, or worse, their own moral, ethical and political views?

Book Talk
An idyllic summer job turns into a summer of horrors for Jamie. Hired as an au pair for a wealthy family, Jamie soon learns that she looks similar to the previous au pair who was killed in an accident the year before. Her eleven-year-old charge, Isa, is an old soul with a penchant for living in a fantasy world. It doesn't help that the old mansion seems to be full of ghosts and other strange happenings. Jamie's answer to her own sleepless nights and strange moods is an eclectic mix of drugs she took from her parents' medicine cabinet, which only serve to add to her sense of unreality. The return of a prodigal son and Jamie's sightings of two dead teenagers make for some interesting island talk as she tries to fit in with the local crowd. The startling conclusion will leave you wanting to reread the story again to see what you missed!

Welcome to the School of Religion
Religion plays a major role in shaping and influencing various cultures and historical and political movements around the world. Thus, understanding religious traditions and their impact on diverse modern issues is vital preparation for building a career in the global marketplace.
The School of Religion at Queen's University offers three-and four-year undergraduate programs in Religious Studies, as well as a twelve month Masters of Arts in Religious Studies.
Religious Studies involves examining the history of religious traditions, comparing the ideas and values of different religious systems, and understanding the place and function of religion in society. Students of Religion investigate why people are religious, where religion comes from, and how it should be defined and understood.
Religious Studies gives students opportunities to interact with many different local, regional and global issues.
Queen's University is situated on traditional Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe territory.
Theological Studies
On 3 November, 2015, the Senate of Queen's University voted to close the Theology programs in the School of Religion. These programs are no longer offered by the School of Religion.

Sun Valley man pleads guilty to burglary, stealing credit card info
INDIO, Calif. - A 29-year-old Sun Valley man pleaded guilty today to felony charges for using an electronic skimmer to steal account information from customers at a Chase bank branch in La Quinta.
Vahe Ruben Yerkanyan pleaded guilty to one count each of burglary, forging an access card and using personal information to obtain credit and was immediately sentenced to 270 days in custody and three years probation.
Yerkanyan was also ordered to pay a total of about $4,500 in restitution to six victims, according to the Riverside County District Attorney's Office. Under the plea deal, 13 other counts were dismissed.
Yerkanyan was arrested May 14 at a Chase branch at 74-930 Country Club Drive in Palm Desert, where he was trying to use the stolen information to get cash.
Riverside County sheriff's Sgt. Steve DaSilva said that two days before the arrest was made, Yerkanyan went into a vestibule at the Chase branch at 78-805 Highway 111 in La Quinta on three occasions, installing and removing a skimming device.
A security guard at the Palm Desert bank later alerted law enforcement that someone was trying to use stolen account information there, DaSilva said.

I would try getting the crank pin DLC coated and set up the clearance to a "plug fit" or literally zero clearance. It's nothing new to preload or run zero clearance on a roller bearing. Look at every carrier bearing on rear differentials.
I think having actual contact of do the sides of the roller itself will perpetuate it to roll rather than "slide" across the pin and race.
Cedarmachine wrote:With roller lifters, they say "pressure fed". I don't see them advertised as "pressurized". It just means that it's force-fed oil from a pressure scource instead of relying on splash....
I like the idea of needle contact on the host bore and the axle all the time regardless if they are caged or not.

sophisticated country wedding series: 3: programs
Does every wedding ceremony need a program? Certainly not. As a wedding guest, you pretty much know what to expect…they walk down the isle, everyone "oo's and ah's," you listen to a few sentimental words, everyone "oo's and ah's," they say "I do,"everyone oo's and ah's," they walk back up the isle, everyone…well, you get the picture. It's pretty straight forward. When deciding what to include in my wedding program, I borrowed a most lovely idea from my best friend, Lauren. When listing her bridesmaids and groomsmen, she included a little information about each of them. It's thought of as such an honor to stand up next the bride and groom but often times, the rest of the guests might not know how they are connected.
I spent A LOT of time trimming, stamping, and tying these programs together. I enjoyed every step but I have to admit, I was glad to complete the final one.
Our "prince of the programs." Who could turn down an offering from this sweet faced, curly headed fella?
Nothing better than a wire egg basket to load them in.
Happy reading, guests!

Keegan and Collin were getting a little antsy riding on top of the double decker bus in the heat, so we hopped off at Union Square to walk around and get a bite to eat. It's a neat plaza area with every big name retail store you can think of surrounding it. It's also a great place to see street performers and homeless people looking for a handout. Believe it or not, we saw a homeless guy today who we met in another part of town yesterday and the boys recognized him.
After lunch and a stop by the Levi Strauss retail store, we jumped back on the bus some more city touring
Chris met us in SF at 6:00 and we took him down to the Union Square area to walk around and get a feel for the area too. It was a terrific night to walk around, people watch, and for the boys to hand out a few dollar bills to the many homeless on the streets. Oh, that reminds me of a creative one we saw today called the "Bush Man." He hides behind some thick green leafed branches on the sidewalk near Fisherman's Wharf and as you walk by, he jumps out at you with a loud noise and scares you almost to death.
I probably would have thought it was funny, but I hurt my neck yesterday carrying the backpack during our bike ride and had a bad pinched nerve in my neck. So when he jumped out at us, I felt like I had whiplash. He does this all to get a tip for scaring you. Sounds crazy doesn't it? We heard from Chris's cousin Inger and her husband, Jim, that someone actually had a heart attack and the authorities had dealt with him over his scare tactics
Collin was determined to get him back for scaring me so bad and decided to sneak up on him. So Collin did and the guy had a great sense of humor. He gave Collin a $1 bill out of his tip bucket for scaring him back.
Tonight was Game 1 of the basketball series between our Jazz and The Golden State Warriors. We came back to the RV park and listened to the Jazz win on the radio while the boys played little Game Cube together...they bond over it! Tomorrow is our last day in San Francisco and we're off to China Town God willing. -Kelly

Where I stayed
Claybrook Resort
What I did
Katie & Eric's Wedding
And then....the phone started ringing and the doorbell starting clanging and within about 20 minutes our little house was full of cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents etc....There were multiple children playing lego in the back room and many cups of coffee were being made. By the time we looked up, there were 18 of us and it was time to go to lunch. We all trooped off to Hogans Pub, a little golf club lunch spot which, as it turned out, had only opened for the season this weekend. We quickly commandeered the porch, pushed tables together and ordered drinks and food
Then back to the hotel for a swim in the heated outdoor salt-water pool. We had to quickly gather up our things and dash out of the way of the wedding party photos. Who knows there may be a couple of half-naked kiwis in the wedding photos!?!?!?
We quickly got dressed and heading down to the wedding. We will let the photos speak for themselves, but it is safe to say that it was a fantastic evening. The food was good, the speeches appropriately tear-jerking, the company most enjoyable, and the drinks and dancing sweat-inducing. We retired sometime after midnight, after a wonderful time catching up with the vast majority of friends and nearly one whole side of Jess's family.

Hilarious Equilibrium-Inspired Gun Battle Short - NO MAN LEFT BEHIND
Freddie Wong is back with another brilliantly funny action short called "No Man Left Behind." The tagline for the short reads, "The greatest gunmen get themselves in a bind…" One of the things that I like most about the short is that it was inspired by the the 2002 film Equilibrium. It also features a great one-liner that I won't spoil for you here, but you'll know it when you hear it! I'm looking forward to the day when Wong finally makes his first feature film. I'm surprised he hasn't done one yet. I'm sure there's a reason. It's ok though, because he keeps pumping out awesome shorts to entertain us.

Starting to enjoy these diary entries, only my second one. I'm afraid to hack on projects at work, but I have nothing better to do. Working on an ugly gnome clock, it's fun. I also need to start work on the backend to a dating service for my school, if I ever want to get it off the ground.
LWE is in a few weeks, I really want a laptop, I can't justify dropping 1.5-2 grand on a laptop. I've been trying to scorunge up a pentium laptop with a CD lately, with no luck. Hey, if you've got a laptop you're willing to sell or donate, please contact me. I need to be able to do some mobile hacking.
Gah, ripped the mobo out of my linux box last night. had to deal with a windows box. No mail. Pissing me off. i woke up, sat down at my desk, and stared at all the cards and chips and memory on my desk. My case just has the HD's and CDROMs in it now. BP6!. I can't wait. Getting it today, install it tomorrow, hopefully 2.4 will like it more. I'm only putting my IBM 20G HD on the ata66 channel, everythign else is going on the ata33 channels.
Right, my dad told me to put all the cards on aluminum foil when I asked him about a static free surface. Something inside me says "BAD!". But my dad's a hacker from the atari days. He's a hacker. Digital logic, eproms, asemmbler, squeezing everything into tiny spaces, cool shit. He did amazing stuff on the atari, all vision training. 3D, random dot stereograms, and some stuff involving the vertical blanking that I don't fully understand. So I'll trust him, he's still better with ahrdware than I am. I jsut don't like the idea of cards on metal, dunno why.
Time to go code pixels!

Lindsay Lohan Says She Handled Whitney Houston's Body Bag
Lindsay Lohan is making the morbid claim in a new interview that while doing her community service in L.A., she handled the body bag containing the corpse of Whitney Houston.
Lindsay Lohan is making the morbid claim in a new interview that while doing her community service in L.A., she handled the body bag containing the corpse of Whitney Houston.
Judging by how diverse each of these singers are, you might not expect them to all have covered Whitney Houston. But it's true: Ariana Grande, Kelly Clarkson and Robin Thicke have all channeled the late icon. Ariana Grande covered the late singer's classic hit 'I Have Nothing' at the White House, while Kelly Clarkson and Robin Thicke both decided to rock their own (very different) versions of 'Exhale (Shoop, Shoop).' Which artist covers Whitney Houston the best?
Pint-sized powerhouse Ariana Grande brought it when she performed Whitney Houston's 'I Have Nothing' at the White House during the 'Women of Soul' event earlier this month (March 6). Her performance has finally landed online and the belter delivered a rendition of the song that Whitney herself would have approved of.
It was a close match for all, but in Round 1 of March Music Madness, the Backstreet Boys' 'I Want It That Way' pulled a last minute win against New Kids on the Block's 'Step by Step.' Fans voted wildly up until the final seconds of the song battle, resulting in BSB's hit single getting 59.09% of the votes. Meanwhile, Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You' held a steady lead over Celine Dion's 'My Heart Will Go On' throughout Round 1 of the competition. In a duel between two of the greatest pop vocalists of all time, Whitney came through with the win. Now we're faced with an unexpected but interesting match to vote on in our quest to find the Greatest Pop Song of the Modern Era: 'I Want It That Way' vs. 'I Will Always Love You'!
Two of the most famous and most talented pop artists ever, Celine Dion and Whitney Houston, happened to have two of the most iconic singles of the '90s. Little has to be said to argue the merit of 'My Heart Will Go On' or 'I Will Always Love You,' and this round of March Music Madness just might present one of the most difficult questions of this entire bracket: Should 'My Heart Will Go On' or 'I Will Always Love You' receive the title of the Greatest Pop Song of the Modern Era?
We can't decided if the late Whitney Houston would either be mortified by or excited about her daughter Bobbi Kristina's latest shenanigans, which involve leaving a nasty note for her neighbors upon an alleged eviction.
Sometimes you just feel the music. Everyone has had that moment in their car when they get a little too enthusiastic while belting out the tunes only to find your being watched by judgeful eyes in the vehicle next to you.
Madam Tussauds' wax museum unveiled four statues of the late, great Whitney Houston. The pop diva died a year ago -- Feb. 11 is the anniversary -- and the wax figures represent, commemorate and celebrate different eras of Houston's long and storied career and show off the various sides of her personality and style.
It's been a year since Whitney Houston passed away during pre-Grammy festivities. The show, and Music's Biggest Night, must go on, and the late diva's family is divided over how to commemorate the one-year anniversary of her passing.
Her mother Cissy is pissy about it, as Whit's music industry mentor extended an invite to the family for his annual party.
We're embarking on one year since the world lost Whitney Houston on the eve of the Grammys. In addition to being heartbreaking, the loss of Houston at such a pivotal moment in music was also difficult in terms of logistics: a tribute had to be paid to the fallen legend, and a new TV special will examine how her moving farewell came to fruition.

This is a great tutorial, https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-7/share-files-and-printers-between-windows-7-and-xp/, but can you give me one on how to share a printer if the printer is connected to Windows XP?
How-To Geek Forums / Windows 7
Sharing Files and Printers between Windows 7 and Windows XP, the other way?(3 posts)
Your link is no good?
Anyway, I have Win7 and 2 XP's on my LAN. One has an HP 2575 attached and it is via USB. I can use it from my Win7 machine.
Here are the steps I used.
-- On the XP system, SHARE the printer, and give it a name.
-- Open up on W7 the Start Orb, then the Control panel.
-- Select Devices and Printers.
-- On the top, select ADD PRINTER.
-- Select ADD A NETWORK ....
-- Select the XP printer which it should find.
Done, but you might be required to load the printer driver if it isn't in W7. Depending on printer, you might not be able to use any other function but print.

We are travelling from Taupo to Auckland for Cup games at Eden Park in September and October. What are your suggestions for the best and/or simplest way to get to the stadium? We are very happy to use the transport that will be available for the public - where would be the best place to leave our cars, outside of the Auckland CBD?
Brian Halligan, Taupo.
My suggestion would be to drive to Papakura, leave the car at the station carpark there and take the train. Some special event train services will be running along the southern line from Papakura directly to Newmarket, and from there to Kingsland. An alternative is to use normal scheduled services to Britomart and then catch a special event train to Kingsland. Return trains will be running back along the southern line after the match. Travel by train is free when you produce your match ticket.
Could you tell what date the fireworks for the Rugby World Cup are on and what time please?
Owen Bradley, Auckland.
The largest firework display seen in New Zealand is scheduled to light up the downtown waterfront at 8pm on September 9, the date of the Rugby World Cup opening match. Good vantage points for watching the fireworks display include Mt Victoria, the Devonport waterfront, Bastion Pt and the Parnell Rose Gardens.
What else is going on at the waterfront on opening night?
Eugene Sutton, Auckland.
An awful lot, it seems. Here is a quick breakdown, but for more information, visit here.
4pm - Te Herenga Waka - fleet arrival
4.40pm - Dave Dobbyn and band at Queens Wharf
5pm - Mass haka and kaihoe procession - Eastern Viaduct/Quay St
5.55pm - Mayoral welcome on Queens Wharf
6.10pm - The Finn Brothers concert - headline act
7.30pm - Opening ceremony from Eden Park live on waterfront big screens
8pm - Sound and light show - Auckland's biggest and brightest fireworks and light show set to music composed for the occasion by Don McGlashan
8.15pm - Opening match from Eden Park live on the waterfront big screens
10.15pm - Concert by New Zealand music stars, including Dane Rumble, on Queens Wharf
2am - Queens Wharf closes.
I am picking my daughter up from the airport at 6.20pm to attend a Rugby World Cup game at 9pm at Eden Park. Our plan is to drive as far as we can towards Eden Park then park in a side street and walk to the park. We don't mind an hour's walk if necessary. Does this seem feasible? Could you advise the best area to head for?
Jim Doull, Thames.
It is feasible, but be warned, traffic is going to be heavy whichever route you take.
My suggestion is to take SH20 westbound from the airport to Dominion Rd. Turn down Dominion towards the city, and keep going until you have crossed Balmoral Rd. From there, use one of the side streets to park in, and you should have a fairly easy walk to Eden Park.

Brainerd native killed Saturday in Puerto Rico
Brainerd native Aaron James Dahlberg was among 19 people who were violently killed this past weekend in Puerto Rico, according to a story Tuesday in El Nacional, a newspaper in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Dahlberg, 33, a 1996 Brainerd High School graduate, was living in a house in the urbanized University Gardens in Rio Piedras when he was shot in the upper back and his armpit Saturday while he was on his balcony, according to police. Police said the gunman approached Dahlberg and shot him with a .45 caliber pistol then fled.
According to Dahlberg's Facebook page, he currently was working at Purple Desert Services in Phoenix, Ariz., and on Friday he wrote that he was looking into purchasing a condo in Puerto Rico.

Jacqueline Widmar Stewart's Book, "Finding Slovenia" is a beautiful book!!!!

Please enjoy it as we have. It's been a great gift for family and friends.

Firehouse to be built on Tinicum's Lazaretto site
In an unanimous vote, Tinicum Township supervisors awarded contracts Monday to build a controversial firehouse and evacuation center on the site of historic Lazaretto hospital in Essington. The immigrant quarantine station, built in 1799, is believed to be the oldest in the United States.
The board rebuffed a coalition of preservationists asking for more time to find an alternative site for the firehouse. The coalition argued that the new $7.5 million, 38,500 square-foot complex will hide the Lazaretto from view and destroy its historical context.
The official ground breaking is scheduled for Sept. 11. General contractor John S. McManus Inc., of Chester Heights, said the project should be finished by next summer
