Okay, that's clearer. So, when we receive a SQLException from a database, we either re-throw the exact same exception, or we throw a new Exception consistent with the API interface setting the cause as the caught Exception?

I thought from Ritika's original note, she was having problems obtaining the information anywhere. I guess not. I just re-read her note and she has indicated that the information is available if her testcase outputs the caught exception. What about trace or debug logging? Do you have a concern with logging of SQLException data when trace or debug is turned on? For applications that are not correctly processing the Exceptions thrown by our runtime, the trace or debug information associated with caught SQLExceptions may be very helpful. Probably not in all cases. But, maybe in selected paths as we continue to debug customer-related applications? Kevin

Chapter 31 (PArt Two - Toward Persephone)
Belial, Emanuelle and Greaves washed and bathed and were sat in Belials old training room. The room that once was adorned with various weaponry had been converted in to a small library. This amused Belial as he had never once seen Persephone read so much as a shopping list.
Much had changed here, the desk stood proudly and grandly in the corner of the large rectangular room. Many intimately carved bookcases lined the walls, and a large rug depicting the battle of troy was spread lazily across the centre of the room.
Persephone's new love must be a great scholar, or at least fancy himself as one. The high ceiling still burned with the same ornate chandelier, the only reminder of Belials time here. Belial looked down at the falchion he had taken from the room in which the trio had met with Hades and Zeus.
Emanuelle was unabashedly towelling her beautiful naked body with a plump scarlet towel. Greaves was sat at the desk writing notes on a large piece of paper.
Belial was trying not to notice the creamy pallour of Emanuelles slight frame dancing enticingly before him. He wondered how long it had been since he had lain with a female. He wondered if he still knew what to do with a female, he wondered a lot of things unsavoury and not expressable.
"Belial something is bothering me." Emanuelles voice fell like a soft dew drop on his ears. Belial looked up inquisitively, silently relieved that she was dressing again. He instantly recognised the short scarlet dress as that of Persephone's cocktail dress.
"Is it a mosquito?" Belial inwardly cringed at his own poor attempt at humour.
"What you said to Zeus about him having his share of the universe. Tell me that was a ploy to get what you want please." As Emannuelle spoke Greaves stopped writing and pivoted his attention to the conversation.
"What do you want to hear Emanuelle? Yes it was a ploy, I have no intention in sharing power. I want to rule the world alone and all will bow and worship me. Tell me, which is it you want to hear?" Belial looked back down at the beautiful sword in his hand.
"You mean it's true?" Emanuelle looked horrified.
"Why shouldn't it be?" Belial asked simply.
"An arrogant dweeb like Hades and a heartless brute like Zeus residing over the universe. You have to be kidding?"
"Of course I have to be." Belial swung his falchion in the air relishing the sweet whistle it gave as it cut through the air.
"I think it's wisdom." Belial and Emanuelle looked sharply at Greaves as he spoke.
"How so?" Emanuelle placed her hands on her hips in an almost comically diva stance.
"I once read about the humans prefer to rule their people. It's simple, the people choose the leaders, but no leader stands alone. All factions of human's are represented by a 'party' in there vote and even those opposed to the current leadership have a right to disclose an opinion, regardless of how heinous some may think it is." Greaves stood up from his desk and paced to the centre of the room as he absently pushed his glasses to forehead. "It is wisdom to give the netherworld and all other realms there representatives to rule over everything, that way a harmony can be produced safe in the knowledge that are being listened to." Emanuelle heeded the words and found herself agreeing somewhat with her brother.
"He is exactly right. Jehovah has ruled over as much of the universe that he can get his greedy hands on, all for his own pleasure. He has controlled the humans through fables and myths, he controls heaven through tyranny. The point of the war is for no one person to gain control of everything, but for everyone to be united under one banner." Belial sheathed his sword after he spoke.
"I wish to speak with you both for a moment with regards to a more pressing dilemma." Greaves broke a very short ponderous silence.
"Persephone?" Belial asked.
"Yes Persephone. From what I could gather from talking to the centaurs on our journey, she has now been missing for five days. Nobody unexpected had arrived here apart from us and obviously there was no break in or Hades would have mentioned it when agreeing to letting us find her." Greaves went back to the desk and began poring over his notes.
"What have you come up with brother?" Emanuelle softly asked.
"NOthing of note unfortunately. There are a few things that bother me however." Greaves slumped back against the chair and began slowly massaging his pointed chin.
"Firstly, is the fact that it would have taken two days to come from Hades' city. NOw if he had heard the same day as Persephone disappearing and came straight here, he would have with a large procession of people bringing his effects, food, guards, arsenal and that great ornamental tribute to a Pegasus that we saw as we walked through the courtyard with his name carved in the base. The centaurs told me he arrived alone with a few guards. No mention of any large procession." Greaves tapped his fingers on the desk.
"Secondly, Zeus would have had to have left the minute she disappeared to be here. The portal is a three day trek the otherside of Hades city. You see Hades hates surprise visitors and had it moved it to a wasteland area so that Zeus would be reluctant to interfere. It says so here in this scroll that was just above the desk." Belial thought his over for a moment and came to the conclusion that he really did not have any idea what Greaves was getting at.
"Thirdly. Who does all this literature belong to? Where is the person who studies here often? Where is Persephone's lover?" Greaves stood up and walked to a small basin in the far eastern corner of the room and and cupped some silvery water into his mouth.
"What is it you are asking Greaves?" Emanuelle could no longer coneal her frown.
"I am asking how Zeus got here so quickly, how Hades came so unprepared yet is very settled, and where Persephone's lover actually is. I am asking which rooms are we allowed in whilst here under the watchful eye of the NEtherworld gods. I am asking whether it is necessary to not tell them what we are doping. I am suggesting that the three people I have mentioned maybe our prime suspcts."

The Tories find the growth of the housing benefit bill over the last 10 years unacceptable. They say it's unfair claimants can live it up in mansions and penthouses while the rest of us struggle to pay the rent or keep up with the mortgage. And they (justifiably) attack the Blair/Brown ancien regime for allowing private landlords to gorge themselves on taxpayers' cash. But the Coalition's solutions - to cap housing benefit and reduce it by 10% for Jobseekers' Allowance claimants on the dole for more than a year - betrays their class instincts.
The Mail, backed with choice quotes from the Quiet Man, says housing benefit cuts means a £10 or £20 shortfall in rents for the low paid and unemployed who depend on them. Far from leading to a social cleansing of London and the South East - something even a buffoon like Boris Johnson recognises - the Tories and their press allies believe the market will adjust and rents will come down. It absolutely isn't an attempt to clear out people who are likely to vote Labour. No siree.
I have a hard time believing the Tories. If they were only interested in getting the housing benefit bill down surely it would make more sense to introduce a rent cap. Administratively it wouldn't be any more complex than the measures they're already seeking to implement. It would quickly adjust the market instead of waiting an age to correct itself. In a snap taxpayers would cease subsidising landlords, and most importantly no one runs the risk of losing a roof over their heads.
This option doesn't even appear to have been considered by the government. That should tell you all you need to know. This is their attempt to do a Shirley under the guise of welfare reform.

Terra Pax- The Dragon War
"Sumus Bellum iam hand procul... Bellum Futurum... Filia Regis, tuum fatum est pugnare... Terra Pax vertetur in Terra Bellum... est per vos populum salutem, tantum tanc pax erit vobis..."
("we are now not far from the war... the war of the future... Daughter of the King, your fate is to fight... the Land of Peace shall become the Land of War... By you is the salvation of the people, only then shall you have peace...")
Chapter One
Bella shot upright, blinking rapidly in the dim early-morning light. Heart racing and breathing quickly, she dropped her head into her hands and massaged her temples, trying to displace the the echoes of the voice from her dream.
She lay back against the soft white sheets of her four-poster bed, mulling over the contents of tonights dream. Again, it had been about the war. "Bellum Futurum", the war of the future, or so it was called. Bella had been having dreams lately, prophetic dreams- and all told of an on-coming war; a war that would erase Terra Pax from existance, forever.
Feeling jumpy and restless, Bella swung out of bed and padded barefoot to the window, leaning her head against the cool glass. The dreams were beginning to worry her- they were becoming more frequent; almost every night she heard the voices within her mind. And the message they portrayed was becoming urgent. "It is your destiny to fight", that was the message of tonight's dream- and that, more than anything, is what pierced her heart with fear.
She, Bellator, youngest of three daughters to the King and Queen of Terra Pax, fight in a war? The idea was incomprehensible. She was just 17, and untrusted even to walk the grounds of the palace alone. To aspire to leave the palace grounds was futile, for the King and Queen treated her as a child- she was followed everywhere by her servant and minder, the 20 year old Pacifus. He was the son of her father's faithful consultant, Clarus, and he took his duties exceedingly seriously- he followed her even to the restroom, and waited for her while she was inside. But he was a generous and kind-hearted man, and they got on well together.
Bella surveyed the palace grounds from her viewpoint at the window. They stretched for miles, rolling meadows and fertile fields galore, tended daily by the royal team of gardeners. She could see the gardeners at work now, about 100 men and women altogether, going about their various tasks under the lightening sky. In the distance, Bella could just see the North boundary wall. Rising ominously into the sky, it blocked Bella's view of the villages beyond; and in doing so, it mocked her- for she longed to be among the people there, to experience the world of Terra Pax outside of the palace grounds. But she knew in her heart that it would not happen, for once her parents learned of her latest dream, they would tighten her security tenfold- and they would find out whether she wanted them to or not, for Pacifus was exceedingly perceptive, and could read her thoughts as if they were an open book. Sighing heavily, Bella turned from the window, resigning herself to dressing and preparing for another long day of mundane palace duties and confinement.

Bongiovi Acoustics Digital Power Station DPS Sponsors The Jimmy Star Show Live Internet Radio Show
The Jimmy Star Show live entertainment internet radio show on W4CY Radio announces sponsorship by Bongiovi Acoustics Digital Power Station - DPS - which dramatically improves sound of existing computers, home electronics, phones and car audio.
Bongiovi Acoustics' expertise in music and sound proves just the right fit for The Jimmy Star Show, which is revolutionizing digital broadcasting with its professional approach to the still young medium and presentation of the best insider entertainment industry know-how to its global listenership. "Bongiovi Acoustics DPS is so innovative, so timely, and to go further, so necessary in today's internet reliant society, that it is already taking the world by storm," says Jimmy Star. "The Bongiovi name stands for the highest sound quality standards anywhere, so I am pleased that we could team up with such a relevant and compatible company to further the industry standards as a whole."
Tony Bongiovi is the man behind the incredible Bongiovi Acoustics technology. His legacy began in 1977 when he built the world's most famous recording studio, Power Station in New York City. Due to its breakthrough acoustical design and engineering, the Power Station Studios became the facility of choice for artists including Madonna, AC/DC, Bryan Adams, Aerosmith, The Beach Boys, Bon Jovi, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan, Grateful Dead, Whitney Houston, Billy Joel, B.B. King, Paul McCartney, Willie Nelson, The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Barbara Streisand, and Neil Young. Now the same acoustical engineering magic that made some of the biggest hits in the world has been captured in a patented technology that fits on a chip no larger than a fingernail and in a software plug-in easily downloadable to computers. Tony, along with a highly talented team of engineers, sound designers and business strategists have created this incredible technology that easily integrates with any consumer electronics device; and regardless of hardware limitations, dramatically enhances its sound. The Bongiovi team has worked together for over a decade to bring this technology to the marketplace, and it is here.
With its Digital Power Station, Bongiovi Acoustics is confronting the current online environment's degradation of sound quality head on. In the industry's online music distribution, the MP3 and other highly compressed audio formats have provided portability and distribution benefits, but at considerable sacrifice to audio quality. Bongiovi Acoustics knows first hand that recording engineers, producers and artists create rich, state-of–the-
As the company puts it, "As media is compressed and devices keep getting smaller, more portable and less expensive, big audio hardware is not the answer. A digital problem requires a digital solution." Digital Power Station™ compensates for the loss of material with active signal processing that extends audio bandwidth and adds missing harmonics without adding peak output to the signal. It effectively improves brightness, clarity and presence and delivers deeper, more resonant bass and crystal clear highs. Plainly put, the Digital Power Station digitally re-masters audio in real-time for the hardware and the environment. And instead of a bunch of confusing audio controls, the DPS technology uses a system of profiles that are hand-crafted by Bongiovi Acoustics sound engineers to optimize the listening experience. "The Jimmy Star Show sounds absolutely amazing with the DPS plug-in," says Jimmy Star Show cohost Drew Albright, "and our live recording sound quality at W4CY Radio station is already the best in internet radio. Everything is better with DPS. It's great to get back what we all lose from compression in today's streaming and portable environments."
The Digital Power Station technology may be experienced in iHome consumer electronic products, Toyota cars, and now is available as a downloadable plug-in for PC and Mac computers as well as an iPhone app. In all cases, a mere touch of the "B" button activates the technology which produces such dramatic sound improvement that industry professionals are raving about it. "The Plug In has now ruined me for iTunes without it," says MacWorld.com's Lex Friedman. CNet.com writes "It is only after engaging the DPS that you realize how muffled and muddy the sound was in non-Bongiovi mode. Specifically, activation of the processor has the effect of swelling the sound into the center of the [car] cabin and projecting audio up from the footwells where the front speakers are installed." And Bill Henderson at iPhoneworld.ca states, "It's as if an aural gauze has been lifted off your speakers and now everything sounds much clearer."
The Jimmy Star Show is pleased to team with Bongiovi Acoustics and anticipates a fun and successful time raising audio industry standards and rejuvenating the entertainment industry. Bongiovi Acoustics joins fashion sponsors Anarchy Eyewear and Angel Eyewear as an official sponsor of The Jimmy Star Show.

His £81billion programme of spending cuts is sure to induce ever-louder squeals of pain from next month, but the clumsy planning reforms rushed through by this administration are fast coming up on the rails as the major issue for this Parliament, as well as a serious potential drag on the country's economic prospects.
His £100 million strategy for 10 local Enterprise Zones - questioned by critics as a dubious revival of a Tory initiative which met with limited success in the Eighties and Nineties - will depend on the ability of the Government to work with councils to push through fast-track planning approvals.
It's ironic, then, that David Cameron lambasted the "town hall officials who take forever with those planning decisions that can make or break a business" as one of his "enemies of enterprise" in a recent speech.
Demoralised council planners are already struggling with the fall-out of a Maoist overhaul following the scrapping of regional housing targets last summer. And meanwhile the nation continues its sleepwalk towards a catastrophic housing crisis as approvals for new homes slide steadily lower and previous prophecies of a development impasse gradually come to pass.
Figures from the Home Builders Federation show the UK saw its third quarter in a row of declining housing approvals at the end of 2010.
Just 33,000 homes were given the go-ahead, 22% down on the previous year and less than half the level seen five years earlier.
Moreover, official data shows just 102,000 homes were completed in England, worse than 2009's 80-year low - and this when the Government's own forecasts suggest the number of UK households will grow at an annual rate of 232,000 over the next 25 years.
We're not even near keeping up.
The planning turmoil is putting the brakes on when the industry is still suffering from a squeeze in mortgage finance, despite its efforts to come up with innovative financing solutions. Britain's builders have been playing a similar depressing tune as results show firms putting profit margins before volumes.
Even after a record recession, stock shortages and record low interest rates are keeping up prices and the crisis is exacerbated by the builders' switch into houses rather than flats: they're more profitable, and the buyers are more likely to be able to raise funds.
In 2002/3, 26% of homes completed in England by private builders were flats: this jumped to 45% in 2007/08, but slipped back to 40% in 2010.
And with councils given £9000 for each planning consent granted under the New Homes Bonus, the suspicion remains the new system is gamed in favour of more affluent authorities with enough cash to afford to squash new building schemes.
The Government seems to have an eye for grand projects - like the £17billion London to Birmingham rail line labelled a white elephant by business leaders - but oblivious to the threat of its policies at a mundane level.
The Institute for Economic Affairs free-market thinktank says the UK has some of the highest property prices in the world, driven ever upward by a planning system which severely restricts the flow of development land, labours under a bureaucratic application process and prevents authorities from gaining from new development.
It adds tellingly that you could fit all the shops in the UK into an area around a third of the size of the Isle of Wight.
No-one is suggesting concreting over the entire country. But there has to be a way of speeding up planning by giving much bigger incentives to councils, such as letting them keep the tax from business investment - not just for the life of an Enterprise Zone, but permanently - and doing it in a way that doesn't allow wealthier areas to pull up the drawbridge on development.
Aside from the fact that people need a place to live, construction accounts for around 6% of the economy and roughly one in 10 UK jobs - and what it delivers helps other to grow.
But at the moment it's a miracle anything gets built at all.

I'd just like to post some excerpts from Craig Keener's excellent two-volume commentary on the Gospel of John, on the subject of miracles in the Gospels and their relationship to miracles which (apparently) still happen today:
"It is impossible to examine the historical question of miracles without being explicit concerning presuppositions informing much traditional historiography in the Gospels. If one assumes a priori that neutrality in the historical quest demands that one must not find data that could favor the truth claims of any particular religious movement or movements, one potentially subordinates the objectivity of one's method to desired conclusions...In its rightful reaction to medieval dogma, later Enlightenment rationalism itself eventually transgressed the bounds of both reason and empirical data, excluding even the hypothesis of divine intervention from consideration in explaining the data of even the best attested miracle claims. Is there not something culturally elitist about dismissing from the briefest consideration the credibility of traditions stemming from most cultures and eras in history, based on a presupposition for which those who hold it rarely seek to offer evidence? Granted, many individual claims (especially those far removed from the eyewitnesses) are inauthentic, but does critical thinking always favor an all-or-nothing mentality on other matters?"
But lest Keener's own challenge to the prevailing anti-supernatural skepticism in the West should be equally a priori as the skepticism itself, he goes on:
"As a former atheist who has personally witnessed, occasionally experienced, and is regularly exposed to reliable testimonies of instantaneous supernatural phenomena within circles where such phenomena typically occur (including instantaneous, visible healings in response to prayer), often through my work in Africa or among Pentecostals, I confess my own skepticism toward the prevailing anti-miraculous skepticism of Western culture. My wife, an African with a Ph.D in history from the University of Paris, also offers a substantial collection of testimonies...My affirmation that arguable supernatural phenomena are possible need not affirm that all supernatural phenomena derive from the same source, nor does it deny fraudulent or psychosomatic claims to miracles, nor that some might provide different interpretations of the same claims (though I might regard them as less plausible)."
(Craig Keener, The Gospel of John: A commentary, Peabody, Mass.: Hendrikson Publishers, 2003, vol.1, pp.264, 267)
Especially important, I think, is his comment about the possibility that an objective examination of the evidence might actually favor the religious truth claims of one movement or religion over another. Far too often it is simply assumed that such a verdict is the misleading product of apologetics, or conversely from atheist circles we hear without any justification whatsoever that the evidence for the truth claims of all the various religions is exactly equivalent and, therefore, favors none of them. In this context some comments by William J. Abraham, which I posted on an earlier post, are appropriate:
"What we have, and what we must eventually get to in our deliberations, are very specific claims and counter-claims about particular claims to divine revelation that deploy appropriate sorts of epistemic considerations at the relevant points in the exchange. It is misleading to try to win the day by constructing make-believe scenarios that work off the general epistemic practices deployed in real-life cases. Thus, in response to a particular claim to divine revelation, we can easily invent a parallel but empty case that mirrors it at every step. We simply take the claim and invent an imaginary competing claim that mimics the grounds or arguments cited...Over against such abstract possiblities we need particular claims, worked up with specific phenomenological experiences, outlining a determinate message from God in either word or deed, coupled with accompanying phenomena, and pressed home with the relevant historical narrative. We need more than armchair possibilities and thought experiments; we need actual claims advanced in some detail and with some care...Proponents of divine revelation need to advance in some detail the particular claims they think are secured, the relevant epistemic considerations they deem appropriate, the precise arguments they think straighten their case, and the way they propose to handle standard defeaters and objections...Thus it is up to Moslems to advance the claims of Mohammed; it is up to Mormons to argue the case for Joseph Smith...Indeed, it is the mark of a serious theological tradition derived from divine revelation to own up to this responsibility and explain itself in public...Let each tradition speak for itself and say its piece. In turn, let critics be free to develop whatever objections they deem relevant". (William J. Abraham, Crossing the Threshold of Divine Revelation, pp.151-153)
Atheists often glibly argue that "everyone's a skeptic with respect to other religions...atheistic skeptics just take it one step further". As it goes, this is fine, but the reasons for skepticism are not at all similar. For example, I do not reject the truth claims of Mormonism because they have supernatural elements, because I accept the existence of the supernatural. I do not reject Muslim truth claims because of Islamic fundamentalism. I do not even think that sincere adherents of other traditions are deluded, as Sam Harris would insist that I must. Wrong, yes, but that does not imply delusion or general irrationality. The atheist skeptic, on the other hand, is obliged to believe these things. For such a skeptic there is no transcendent reality to be wrong about (the Chrisian might say that the Muslim does respond to God, but in a 'refracted' or inadequate way). In fact, I find religious skepticism (i.e. skepticism based on adherence to another religious tradition) to be much more noble and generous than atheist skepticism, because atheist skepticism cannot help but debunk and tear down religion in all its truth claims, whereas believers can affirm that adherents of other traditions are indeed responding to real Divine reality.

Excellent post and quotes, JD.
My only caveat, is that "atheist skeptics" are not always necessarily obligated to believe that any theistic belief whether generally or particularly, is either delusion or irrationality (at least in some senses of that word). Granted, it is very popular for atheists to play the delusion card--it makes for an effective (though merely) rhetorical appeal sometimes. But I don't find that they are _technically_ obligated to do so.
At the very least, atheists who would appeal to the possibility "Jesus just made a mistake (i.e. about being God)", as a defense against the famous Lewisian trilemma (actually invented about 100 years previous to Lewis by the sceptical scholar Keim!) ought to agree (in a reverse a fortiori) that we might just be mistaken about our own much less drastic theistic beliefs. {s}
- JD Walters said...
Well, the point I was getting at was that from an atheist point of view, religious believers can't even be 'partly right' about responding to a supernatural reality, because there is none period. How they choose to articulate this fundamental tenet of their worldview certainly runs a gamut from outright accusation of deception to a gentle frustration that we continue to cling to comforting (if unprovable) beliefs. But I don't see how the atheistic skeptic can be generous in the sense that a religious skeptic can.

{shrug} "They managed to get _those_ things right at least, even if they did so on mistaken grounds."
Doesn't take much to make that observation. Anyone can do it, us or them. If we can do it, they can do it. Especially when it comes to acknowledging moral choices. The sheep in the parable evidently haven't heard about the parable of the sheep and the goats, and are surprised they are being accepted by the Lord. There is no reason, so far as it goes, that an atheist couldn't do the same thing for us in reverse.
Now, whether it makes logical sense for an atheist to say in effect, 'well, maybe they haven't heard or understood yet that reality is foundationally amoral and non-rational, including our own moral and rational behaviors, but at least they have managed to act morally and/or rationally in these regards over here, and we had better be fair and acknowledge this...' --that's a different debate. {g}
But they _could_ do that. Maybe without reference to the middle element there, if that helps make it easier. {g}

In a nearly lost Olympics, Shani Davis has shown he's a winner
Sochi, Russia – Shani Davis came to Sochi on a mission, not only to add more Olympic medals to the four he already owns, but also to finally embrace the spotlight and allow it to illuminate the sport he has loved his entire life.
His greatness as a long-track speedskater, the Sochi Games notwithstanding, is written in the record books for all to see. Double Olympic gold in the 1,000 meters. Double silver in the 1,500. World records at both distances. A decade of brilliance.
But Davis wanted to shine in other ways in Sochi. He wanted America to feel his passion, to connect with him, to finally get a peek under the hood of his skin suit and see what the skate-crazy Dutch have seen for years: his personality.
In the weeks before the Winter Games, Davis shot a handful of commercials and was featured in NBC promos. At the Olympic trials, he talked about how he had found balance between racing and off-ice obligations and had embraced his role as a team leader. Apolo Ohno said his friend finally understood that being a champion meant more than just winning races.
The stars were aligned. This was Davis' chance, maybe his last one, to finally get the adoration he longed for and deserved.
It didn't happen when he was at his absolute best, in Turin in 2006 and in Vancouver four years ago, for a variety of reasons – some his own doing and others he couldn't control.
Early in his career he didn't seem to understand that image, if not everything, is at least plenty. He feuded with U.S. Speedskating, couldn't rise above a running spat with fellow star Chad Hedrick and was wary of the media. What did they want, anyway? Wasn't his skating enough?
Privately, those who knew Davis described him as loyal, charismatic, genuine, approachable and honest to a fault. Those are the traits he wanted the world to see in Sochi.
In order for that to happen he knew he was going to have to win medals because America doesn't pay attention to the guy who finishes in the middle of the pack at the Olympic Games.
And so, his finishes of eighth in the 1,000 and 11th in the 1,500 were beyond frustrating. He'd rarely performed this poorly in his career, and never on a big stage.
"It kills me inside to know that the attention I am getting now, these are the kind of things I've always wanted since 2002," Davis said. "I wanted to be a speedskater that Americans knew and followed and cheered for. I worked hard to get that. In 2006, it didn't quite go my way. In 2010, I didn't have anyone working for me to pull people into my corner.
"Now in 2014 I have the whole country behind me. I have people following me. I had everything going into it but I come away with nothing to show them."
On Saturday, in a 15-minute post-race interview in the media mixed zone at the Adler Arena, Davis couldn't have been more professional. Despite the disappointment of finishing 11th in the 1,500, he was patient and candid and refused to make excuses.
"I tried the best I can and I don't have the hardware to show for it," he said. "At the end of the day the paper says I was eighth (in the 1,000) and 11th. It doesn't say because of the (skin) suit or because of lack of confidence or whatever you have to deal with. It just says eighth and 11th. So that's what I have to live with for the rest of my life.
"I feel like we had a lot of distractions but I am not going to sit here and blame my performance on those things because I have been here before and done it many times. So you have to point the finger at me."
Reporters kept firing questions at him about the controversial Under Armour skin suit and the skaters' decision midway through the Games to switch back to old suits. A U.S. Speedskating representative asked several times for them to limit questions to the race.
Davis handled it beautifully.
"We need to get the facts right," he said calmly, "so they have a good story."
And so it went, Davis answering every last question about the suits, the team's underwhelming performance and his personal disappointment.
He doesn't know if he'll stick around for the 2018 Winter Games in Korea. He would be 35 and perhaps Sochi showed that he is beginning the inevitable age-related decline. In the meantime, he has one more race, the team pursuit, where a bronze medal would feel like gold.
"I am content, man," Davis said. "This my fourth Olympics. I had success in my middle Olympics in '06 and '10. I would have loved, if you want to say (these are) my last Olympic races, to have a medal and finish with the cherry on top.
"For people who have been tuning in, watching, view parties, things like that, I'm very disappointed I couldn't do more for them."
There's a great line in the movie "White Men Can't Jump," delivered by Rosie Perez's character, that "sometimes when you win you lose and sometimes when you lose you really win."
Davis lost, but some would say he finally won. And that maybe it was one Olympic cycle too late.

Infusing modern Mexican food with craft beer, Beer Barrio, 34 N. Front St., aspires to be the neighborhood bar that pairs world-class cuisine with world-class beer.
For husband-and wife-team Hayley Jensen and Stephen Durley, opening the doors to Beer Barrio in June was a dream come true.
Durley was working as a chef in New York City at the DBGB Kitchen and Bar when Hayley–after traveling throughout Europe researching beer and working in London's craft beer scene for several months–made her way back to New York City to work as a beer sommelier at the same restaurant. It was there that the couple met, and their dream began to take root.
"Craft beer was really elevating the beer selections at bars and restaurants, but the food wasn't coming along with it. It was all frozen and fried food and we really wanted to change that," Durley said.
After a few bitter New York City winters together, the couple decided it was time to retreat to a warmer climate and open their own restaurant.
"When we visited Wilmington we knew right away. We felt very welcomed," said Jensen. "From the time we started researching it seemed like each week we saw a new brewery or beer business opening up and we wanted to be a part of that growth."
They believed the new place should feel like your neighborhood beer bar, and wanted people to feel welcomed and at home, so the name Beer Barrio came to mind. Barrio, in Spanish means "neighborhood," and serves as a reflection of how they wanted a place for the neighborhood to share some of Jensen's craft beer selections while dining on Durley's fine Mexican cuisine.
Durley—who has appeared on the television show "Beat Bobby Flay" and featured on The Cooking Channel Online— promises his craft beer infused Mexican food is "all goodness with no filler," and makes everything from the salsa to the guacamole in house, sourcing as much local meat and produce as possible. One of his favorite dishes is his beer braised beef tacos, which comes with a flour tortilla, cheddar jack cheese and lettuce, pico and chipotle sour cream, all wrapped in a hard taco shell.
Jensen's involvement in the beer industry has led to previous appearances on "The Today Show" and "Fox & Friends," along with feature articles in national publications such as The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. She serves as the restaurant's general manager and beer curator with 30 of her favorite draft taps behind the bar.
When asked about which one she enjoyed the most, she just smiled and said, "Wow, that's a hard question. That's like asking someone what their favorite song is—I mean what am I going through? How am I feeling, you know?" After flipping the options in her head, she said her current mood reflected the Asheville brewed Sierra Nevada.
Beer Barrio is open from 11 a.m. to midnight Sunday through Wednesday and 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. For more information, to reserve a table or to view the menu, visit the website or call (910) 769-5452.

Another beautiful city on the Danube
We arrived in Passau a little before breakfast. I slept a little late because Al was snoring and I was wide awake so I caught up on my journal entries. Just heard from Sylvia and Sue Ball that Erica is in labor!! So exciting!! Now I have a reason to buy a little Austrian sweater for a baby!!
We had a quick breakfast and then headed off our ship for our tour of ...
Bus trip to Czech Republic
... Rep that was formed when a large dam was built.
Cesky Krumlov was a beautiful town built on a couple of sharp bends in the Vltava River, the longest river in the Czech Rep. The old part has a huge castle. Again tough to do it justice in the pictures. We had a guided walking tour, then lunch and an hour and half free time to tour ourselves. Then back on the bus to me the boat in Germany. We sailed at 6:00 PM and our next stop is Regenburg.
Weather here ...
... flourishing city lost its valuable trade.
Passau's magnificent baroque St Stephen's Cathedral located on the highest point in old town. It was nearly destroyed by fire in 1662 when fire swept through the town. It was rebuilt and since 1928 has been home to the largest cathedral organ in the world. It has 17,974 organ pipes, 233 stops and four carillons. All five parts of the organ can be played at once or separately from the main keyboard.
Passed out in Passau
Hello Friends,
We were supposed to be in Regensburg today, but with the change in cruise plans, we spent the day touring Passau. After a leisurely lunch, we headed out on a walking tour. This little city was up in the hills a little. Again, we saw a village similar to what we've been seeing. The church, and a few other buildings, however were much more magnificent. They were built more ...
Day 5-The big swap day
We're going to do a total boat swap today with the Viking Var.
Next port on the original itinerary is Passau, Germany. However, the Danube in Passau is too shallow (by a few inches) for our boat to sail past so we are docked in Linz (Austrian side of impasse). The Viking Var is cruising in the opposite direction from ours and cannot get beyond the impasse from their location on the German side of the impasse. So ...

UPDATE 2-Ackman's hedge fund cooperating with U.S. on drug pricing probe -letter
(adds information on probe, details from letter, paragraphs 5-7, 11, 14)
By Svea Herbst-Bayliss
BOSTON, March 24 (Reuters) - Billionaire investor William Ackman, whose hedge fund is one of the biggest investors in drug company Valeant, has been asked to supply information to U.S. legislators probing price hikes in the pharmaceutical industry.
Ackman told investors in his Pershing Square Capital Management on Thursday that the firm received a request on Friday from the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging as part of an investigation into pricing of off-patent drugs.
"As you would expect, we will fully cooperate with the committee's requests," Ackman wrote in the letter seen by Reuters.
The letter did not say the request was directly related to Valeant, but the Canadian company has sparked outrage among U.S. lawmakers and the public for dramatic price hikes on older drugs.
Ackman's letter also gave no details on what information the committee was seeking and why they asked the $12 billion hedge fund to supply it. A Pershing Square spokesman declined to comment beyond the contents of the letter.
Spokespeople for the U.S. Senate committee did not immediately respond to requests for information and Valeant declined to comment.
It was not immediately clear whether the committee has also reached out to other large Valeant shareholders, including Jeffrey Ubben's hedge fund ValueAct Capital, which currently has two seats on the board of directors. Continued...

Marianne Fallon, KPMG head of corporate affairs, comments on the government's introduction of a levy on large UK employers to fund new apprenticeship schemes.
Commenting on the government's introduction of a levy on large UK employers to fund new apprenticeship schemes in today's Summer Budget, KPMG head of corporate affairs, Marianne Fallon said:
"The introduction of an "apprenticeship levy" highlights the Government's commitment to expanding routes to entry for all UK businesses and investing in UK talent. We as a firm have long seen creating a diverse and innovative workforce as a priority not only for UK corporations, but for society as a whole.
"Recognition of this from The Chancellor will provide a shot in the arm for small businesses whilst emphasising continued support from large UK organisations. KPMG fully supports this move to champion apprenticeship schemes and looks forward to receiving more in-depth information in the spending review later this year."

Finding Answers
Time whittled away the hour, and my intentions not to be beaten were looking more likely to result in a no-contest than a victory. I wouldn't be winning, sure, but more importantly, neither would they. With wings like mine, fleeing was the solution for too many of my problems, and when I couldn't run, the spirit would, and then, at least my mind could escape.
Stalling, perhaps, was not the best of ideas, but I had a lot of thinking to do, and little could be done in that posh prison of a castle. At least outside, I wouldn't be alone.
"And that's my problem," I finished explaining. I dug my head from out my hands to see his reaction -- complacent, as usual. Nothing ever seemed to faze him, and this is why (in addition to being the smartest person I knew in the whole palace) I came to him for an answer. Without a sound, he simply approached, piercing me all the while with those mysterious eyes. He brushed back the hair from my shoulder, leaned in so I could feel his warm breath, and began chewing.
Stupid goat. At least he couldn't make this garment any worse than it already looked.
"Look, you can have all the dresses you've ruined over the years if you help me out of this," I promised. "I don't even know why I've kept so many of them, anyway."
"Why don't ya just take the body guard duty?" he didn't say. It is a goat, after all, but somewhere between the desperate loneliness and too many hard nights, I could hear the billy even if he didn't speak a word. "What's the worst that could happen? You'll be a bad guard, and yer brother'll die?"
"It's just that I'll have to be around him all the time," I huffed. "I already don't want to be here, and I certainly don't want to be around them."
"Then just leave! Not like anyone'll be able to catch ya."
"Leave and do what, exactly?" I posed.
"Idunno," he tilted his horned head. "From what I understand, there's quite a demand for fairy prostitutes -- with some pretty respectable clientele, at that."
"Don't be a jackass," I spat out just before realizing just how strange it was to call a goat a jackass. "Besides, that wouldn't be a mere night out. Father would send someone after me. Not that he cares, but he certainly enjoys making my life miserable. I'd be forced into hiding from all members of the royal court, which is pretty much the life I lead here, anyway. At least at the palace, I have..." The sloshing and gnawing of the billy filled the silence and finished my thought, although not to the effect I had intended.
Stupid goat. Maybe I shouldn't have worn the one covered in food stains.

A/N: Okay, so...naming Artie's physiotherapist Dr. Walker? Totally not intentional. Oops?
Puck's really not that much of a hardass.
There's actually a lot of things about him that kids at school don't know, and Finn only knows a few of them. For one, he's asthmatic and he needs to have an inhaler in his pocket at all times (Finn has no knowledge of this – the only people who do are his mom, his sister, and the school nurse). Second, he's a total Harry Potter nerd and he sort of fancies himself as a Sirius Black-type character (this, Finn does know). Third, he's an awesome babysitter – he has to be, since his sister is almost ten years younger than him and his mom's either too busy or too drunk to do her mom-duties – and he's good at cooking and that kind of shit. Fourth, he's a fantastic storyteller, and fifth, he's really sort of a mama's boy.
He's not all that sure how exactly he came to have a reputation for the school bad boy; it was really something that just sort of happened. He's not gonna lie, though – he likes it. He likes the attention and he likes that people tend to give him what he wants. He likes the fact that if he's ever in the mood to hit something (which is a mood he's in a lot, given that his mom's an alcoholic and his dad kind of doesn't exist), people aren't surprised when he goes and beats the crap out of someone at the bottom of the food chain.
It's more than a little convenient.
At home, with just his mom and sister in the house, Puck tends to lose a lot of who he is at school. Which is weird, because he doesn't usually like being home, especially since his mom has a new boyfriend. But because his mom's occupied with said boyfriend, it means that Puck needs to be home more often to take care of his sister. And this is where the awesome babysitting skills come in.
It's one of these afternoons when he's fallen asleep on the couch and is woken up by Sarah jumping on him. "Holy shit," he groans, still half-asleep. "You're like a sack of potatoes."
"Noah," she whines, prodding him. "Wake up."
He sighs, his eyes still closed. "What do you want?" he slurs.
"You fell asleep in the middle of Parcheesi," Sarah tells him matter-of-factly.
Through his sleepy daze, he remembers blacking out in the middle of the game. He's been exhausted by shit lately, but he's got no idea why. He also has no idea how he ended up horizontal if he's only been asleep for a minute or so. "How long've I been out?" he slurs.
"Three hours."
He finally forces himself to open his eyes and look at her. "Three hours?" he repeats, a little more coherently.
Sarah nods, sitting on his hip. She's getting heavy. "Yeah, you looked tired so I didn't wake you up," she explains. "I made you a bracelet."
He raises his eyebrows. "Another one?"
"Uh-huh." She hands him a little circle of knotted thread. She's actually really good at making bracelets and stuff, and this one's no exception. It's green and blue and white and black, with a streak of yellow.
"Cool." It actually is.
"Put it on," she orders, grabbing his wrist and sliding the bracelet onto it. She's made him a ton of bracelets before so she knows his size exactly. She doesn't ask him if he likes it.
"You wanna finish Parcheesi?" he asks.
She shrugs. "Nah, I put it away."
"Where's Mom?"
"Upstairs with Rick. I think they're having sex."
Puck grimaces at that mental picture. "Ew, Sar. Don't talk about shit like that." He finally sits up, raking his fingers through his mohawk. "You hungry?"
He makes macaroni and cheese for the two of them and they're sitting at the table eating it when Rick wanders into the kitchen. "Hey, kid, where's the beer?" he asks Puck.
"In the fridge, dumbass."
"Watch it." Rick goes over to the fridge and pulls out a cold one, popping the cap off with his teeth. "So what have you and the squirt been up to?" He winks at Sarah and she sticks her tongue out at him.
"The usual," Puck says. He doesn't like talking to Rick. The guy rubs him the wrong way for some reason, but he's seventeen, so what say does he have?
"We played Parcheesi, but Noah fell asleep," Sarah says.
Rick nods disinterestedly. "You finish your homework?"
"Not yet. I didn't get the math homework so Noah's helping me with it later."
Rick chuckles, and Puck can feel his defenses go up immediately. "What are you, retarded?" he says to Sarah. "You're, what, third grade and you don't get your adding and shit?"
In the blink of an eye, Puck bristles and he's on his feet. "Don't call her that," he snarls.
"Like what?"
"Oh, now who's retarded?"
Rick's eyes harden. He points a warning finger at Puck. "Watch it, kid."
Puck's nostrils flare in anger. "Get out."
"Beg pardon?"
"I said get out. You can't talk to my sister like that and get away with it, asshole."
Rick scoffs. "Yeah? And what are you gonna do? You're a fucking brat just like your sister."
Puck's lip curls and his fists clench. He may be a brat like his sister, but he's got muscles, damn it, and at the very least he can look intimidating. "Get. Out." he repeats.
"You can't just ask me to leave, kid."
"I ain't asking."
"Well, I ain't leaving," Rick says, taking a gulp of his beer like this is no big deal.
Puck debates his choices. He could punch Rick in the nose, like he really, really wants to do, or he could let it go. After all, it wasn't the first time Rick had called Sarah names. But damn it, he wanted it to be the last.
"Noah?" Sarah says, and he glances at her. She's crying a little and she's scared of what he'll do. Puck sighs and backs down.
"Thought so," smirks Rick.
When Mr. Schue calls on Puck to perform, Puck stands up with his guitar and sits on a stool. He's wearing the new bracelet Sarah made him in addition to his old one, but he doubts the Gleeks notice this. He takes a few moments to get comfortable, then begins to strum a smooth, rhythmic melody from the strings. He draws a breath and begins.
"Well, we had to pull on something, so we're grabbing at the threads," he sings, not letting himself look at his small audience and keeping his eyes on his fingers as they work. "And now the world's unraveling inside our very hands. Glasses smeared with lipstick, hungry eyes out in the street. Same old bodies moving to the same old beat – have to draw the line. Have to draw the line."
Puck's not really sure why he's performing this song, but it seemed right so he's just going with it.
"All this talk can hypnotize you, and we can ill afford to give ourselves to sentiment when our time is oh so short." He studies the tiny knots in his bracelet as his left hand holds down the strings on the guitar's neck. "Names beneath the lichen on these cemetery stones. Carnivals of silverfish waiting to dance upon our bones – have to draw the line! Help me draw the line!"
His voice grows stronger as he reaches the song's bridge, still keeping his eyes on his bracelet though he doesn't know why he's staring at it. "I've been doubting yours, baby. I've been doubting mine. I've been out of circulation where the sun don't shine. I've been doubting fame and wealth, charity, even love itself – draw the line."
For some reason, at that moment he remembers Rick's expression when he told Puck that he wasn't going anywhere. It curdles his blood and makes him sing with fury underlining his words. "I ain't saying he's bad, baby. I ain't saying he's good. Merely that he ain't so different, 'neath his executioner's hood. In the name of liberty, in the name of brotherhood – have to draw the line, have to draw the line."
He plays the strings with more force now, every name that Rick has called him and Sarah for the past year and a half flowing through his head and feeding his voice. "Need to take some pride, baby. Need to take some heart. Need to take evasive action when the rumpus starts. Here we are buck naked, yeah, but where do we begin when it's not the flesh we're after but the howling ghost within? Have to draw the line! Help me draw the line!"
The song ends abruptly and Puck barely registers that the class is applauding. He realizes he's decided that when he goes home this afternoon, he's kicking Rick out once and for all. He fiddles with his bracelet as he takes his seat again.
A/N: The song was "Draw The Line" by David Gray.
Quick sidenote: when I said in the first paragraph that Puck has asthma, that's because I posted a oneshot about this titled Inhale a while ago and now it's sort of part of my headcanon. I couldn't help including it... Leave a review!

Chapter 2.4Mature
I wandered around the bookshop all day, impatiently waiting for four thirty to arrive. I couldn't help glancing up at the clock repeatedly. I arranged and rearranged the books twice, and even tried to meditate a little; I was too bouncy though, unable to sit still.
When four thirty finally rolled around, Mollie walked in, looking nervous. Her dark hair was a little wet from the rain during the day.
"Hey" I said, turning to her, grinning.
"Hi... boss" She laughed nervousfully, fiddling with a loose thread on her sleeve. "So, um, what am I doing?"
"Standing behind the counter, ready to serve customers mainly. Though feel free to wander around, get acquainted with the place," I said, still smiling, trying to act normally.
She nodded. "Where can I put this?" she asked, gesturing to the bag on her shoulder.
"You can put it in the bag. This way," I said, turning to take her to the back, where the spare books where kept.
She placed her stuff down by the door.
"So, you ever had a job before?" I asked.
She shook her head and took her coat off, placing it beside her bag.
"Want me to show you around so you know where things are?" I asked her.
She nodded, still playing with the loose thread. I held open the door so she could leave first. I followed, leading her around the bookshop. I gave her a basic explanation of the way the books were sorting, telling her what the different sections were about.
To her credit, she listened intently, nodding to show she'd understood something. She coughed occasionally but suddenly burst into a violent fit of hacking coughs. She clutched at her chest, coughing into her hand.
I put my arm around her shoulder without thinking, supporting her in case she collapsed. When she recovered, a minute or so later, she straightened up, looking at me.
"I'm okay," she said, a little breathless.
"You sure?" I asked, knowing what she had wasn't just a little cough.
She nodded. "Thanks." She blushed, her skin turning a deep pink.
"It's not a problem," I said to her honestly, not fully realising that I still had my arm around her.
She glanced at my arm, then up at me, before shuffling away, embarrassed.
"Oh, sorry," I said, stepping back a stride or so.
She looked down at her shoes, her cheeks turning a darker pink.
"Best get to work then," I said before walking away, going around the bookshelves, making sure they were all still in the right place from the last time I'd checked. An hour ago.
Mollie went to stand behind the counter. She looked at everything, figuring out in her mind how things worked.
I had to admit it to myself, she was pretty. Very pretty, in fact. Her eyes lit up with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. Her cheeks remained a very pale red, making her look happy. When she smiled, her whole face lit up.
After a while, a Fae walked in. I watched him cautiously. He didn't even seem to notice me.
"How may I help you?" Mollie asked, sounding very professional.
"Books on Fae?" he asked.
"Over there," she replied, pointing to the correct section.
I smiled to myself; she was a quick learner.
The Fae turned to go over to the bookshelf, but hesitated, turning back to Mollie. My eyes narrowed slightly in suspicion.
"You're a pretty girl," he said, raising alarm bells in my mind. The bells became louder and faster as he reached out to touch her.
I shot over as fast as could seem humanly possible. I grabbed the Fae's wrist, holding him away from her.
"Don't," I warned him.
The Fae glared and walked away, striding over to the shelves that Mollie had directed him to. I went back to what I'd been doing, making sure to stay on the far side of the shop, where I had a clear view of him at all times.
I could see Mollie frowning slightly but she said nothing as she continued with what she'd been doing. Checking prices from the look of it.
I kept walking around, finding nothing wrong with the order of the books.
After a short while, the Fae went to pay for his book. His fingers brushed the back of Mollie's hand in a seemingly innocent touch though I could see the daze that she instantly fell under. The Fae began to pull her towards him for a kiss.
I dashed over, not caring that it was at supernatural speed; Mollie wasn't fully conscious and so wouldn't see it. I grabbed the Fae's arm, dragging him away from her. I let my eyes flash as I glared at him, alerting him as to what I was.

I'm going to postulate this question without knowing the answer to it - but how many leads have we blown in the 3rd period in games where teams get <8-9 shots in the 3rd period? My guess is not that many. Why? Because Dubnyk is pretty consistent as a goaltender - it's the play of our ****-poor defense and "sit back" mentality that result in more shots, more chances, and inevitably more goals.
The team sags because of the goals the Dubnyk let in. Your telling me that goalies can't alter the momentum of a team with a game changing save?
You remember Cujos Save in 97 that led to the Marchant goal to win game 7 OT in Dallas? The team fought to win games for Cujo, they had confidence in him.
This team lost confidence in their Goalie, no matter how consistent he is. He lets in one soft/bad goal, and you can visible see the team collectively let out a exasperated sigh.
Yes, its up to the team no matter what to keep on pressuring and fighting to win and yes we saw how they let up in the third but I believe very strongly that its linked to Dubnyk and those goals he let in. ]
I agree hes consistent but he's also consistent in letting soft/bad goals.
Everyone on this forums if they say it or not, knows that Dubnyk will let in one bad goal that will kill any momentum in almost every game.
Of all the players I want out, its Dubnyk. You can check all my posts, and this is the first game I am vehemently state my displeasure of this man.
