|Re: Lucene Seaches VS. Relational database Queries
|Thu, 13 Apr 2006 22:58:22 GMT
Erick, Don't get me wrong. I agree with you 100 percent on everything you just said, and have been advocating what you are saying. I turned to the forum to get other peoples thoughts on the issue, feeling that my perspective may be a little warped, and wanted to see what the community thinks. I think there is a performance issue with or DB that I have never experienced in any other project I have worked on, which needs someone with more specific domain knowledge to fix. I think Lucene is fantastic for what we are already using it for (searching contents of HTML, colliding the values of database rows to make them free text searchable). We have been using it for over 2 years, and with very good results (once we got a hang of it). I for one think that native language searches are fundamentally different than Discrete Database queries, I am just having a problem trying to explain this to some of the people on my team, and wanted to see if there wer eother POV out there.

By J. P. Linstroth, Guest Blogger
Now more than ever, we need working theories of gender and greater understandings about gender identities in our world today. This is evident from media coverage on a variety of topics associated with interpreting gendered identities. As such, intellectuals, especially those who specialize in gender studies, have, in my view, an obligation to convey their knowledge about gender and its social constructions to the public at large. This is obvious for various reasons. Today, for example, there are ongoing public discussions about the LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender) community concerning such issues as Gay marriage rights and transgendered individuals' use of public restrooms. Moreover, there are other equality issues in the public sphere about women's rights, especially those associated with reproductive rights—women's ownership over their bodies and reproduction—and equal pay—fair income for both women and men.
In my recent book, Marching Against Gender Practice, I provide a theoretical framework for interpreting gender and gendered identities through a cognitive lens. In my findings, I demonstrated how gender might be analyzed from the perspective of it being cognized. In other words, it is important to realize how cognitive processes and what cognitive systems may be included in the cognition of gender through analyses of recent theories. The theories presented in the book are inclusive for representing on the one hand, traditional views about gender in Basque society, and on the other hand, newer views associated with Basque feminism. While the book, Marching Against Gender Practice, is directed at an interpretation of Basque society, and in particular, a local controversy surrounding the wider participation of women in an annual commemorative event, known as the Alarde, the theories it posits may be used universally for other disputes over gendered ontologies.
For instance, in guiding our attention once more to general society in the United States, it is significant, therefore, to expose how varying views about gender identities may be articulated from a broad spectrum of opinions and differing standpoints. Consider those interpretations from the religious right, which are based upon common theological concerns among distinctive denominations in Christianity. From the perspective of many Christians, the sole purpose of marriage should 'only' be between a man and a woman and not the same-sex; and/or arguing against varied expressions of sexualities and polyvalent sexual identities, other than 'so-called' biological and morphological assignations of women and men for reproductive value, are mostly considered to be abominations against the teachings in the Bible. Whereas in opposition to some prevailing theological assumptions, there are some more inclusive and secular beliefs allowing for difference and a variation of gender expressions such as those derived from the LGBT community. Or, to recognize those views, which support more rights for women in all facets of society, whether, for example, in the home, in the labor market, in the sports arena, in governance, and/or in the military, and beyond. These multitudes of issues represent a broad swath of attitudes and philosophies which are often politically aligned and frequently controversial.
In Marching Against Gender Practice, I explain how cognition may be largely perceived as an internalization of the structures of ideas influenced by the environment which are simultaneously directed by social behaviors familiar to that specific setting and situation. Such a conceptualization may be generally related to ideas about cultures and cognition or the causality of networking and behaviors within and between minds while also not wholly constrained by minds nor perceived without them. Cognitive processes are further limited by divergent bodily practices, distinctive social behaviors, and specific ecological environs, and all of these unique factors act in concert upon minds. It is from these general propositions we may try to interpret how gendered identities and sexualities are forged mentally or cognized.
Generally, my view is varying notions of gender are cognized by mental scripts, schemas, and templates (mental representations of concepts associated with persons, things, events, etc.); are cognized through memories (short-term and long-term); are cognized by cognitive connectionism (representing general and specific knowledge and their categorical connections); are cognized by folk psychology (the act of reading others' minds); are cognized by meta-representations (representing the self over time, projecting about other minds and worlds, and representing beliefs about one's environment as true or false); are cognized by mental time travel (thinking about one's past or forecasting about one's future); and are cognized by embodied forms of cognition (how the mind is embodied through bodily actions and bodily practices). As such, by analyzing gender in this manner, we may appreciate how mental formations regarding how women and men behave are psychological and social constructions (and partially inherited). These mental formations hence become the means by which the possibilities of personhoods are established on different levels through the mind from diverging cognitive processes.
Thus, femaleness and maleness are formulated by distinctive yet compatible processes and systems of cognition for the conception of individual ontology. These mental processes and systems and the environment in which they are created, embodied, and constrained, are further informed by politics and the specific circumstances of learned behaviors such as those supporters of the Pro-Life position in contrast to supporters of the Pro-Choice position. Marching Against Gender Practice is, therefore, meant to be read not only by specialists, but all those interested in the ways gender may be personally interpreted, talked about in the media, and individually understood from an extensive assortment of meanings.

I Am Here
I am here, again. I am always here. This is the place I come back to, when all else fails and I have lost faith in humanity. I always lose faith. These people will never live up to my expectations. They have too many failures; too many issues.
So I come here. I sit here and I ponder on the meaning of life. A little too common a subject for my liking, but I have different reasons for thinking on it. I wonder why it is that some people get the chance to live and others, like me, are condemned to this--a half life, a non-existence. We are nothing. We are worth nothing.
I am not supposed to be telling you this. Normally, I obey my orders like a good soldier. Today, of course, I am disobeying that. You can see that quite easily.
So here I am again with my notebook on my knees. A little old fashioned but I still prefer paper and pens. They are less likely to tell other people what you are writing and more likely to remain standing. Less easily manipulated, too, so I don't have to worry about people changing my words.
Not that they would. It is a long time since anybody was particularly bothered about what I did and what I thought. I suppose they think I am harmless, that I cannot fight back.
That is not true.
I am planning my rebellion, my revolution of hope and life and everything I have longed for over such a long period of time. Yes, it is true, I have been waiting for far more than one lifetime. But that is not the issue. The real truth is that I have been waiting. I have been biding my time, planning.
Patience is not the same as dormant.
I heard that phrase once on a TV show and it frightened me. I thought they were talking about me because that pretty much sums up everything I have been doing. But they weren't. It was just a science fiction drama, something that normally I would think was fun and interesting to watch.
Nowadays, of course, I have stopped. I don't think that it's necessary to spend my time watching other people battle against evil when I have my own very real fight going on all the time. It's not visible. There are no flashing lights and ray guns and people falling to the ground with loud cries. No pretty girls run over and ask them not to be dead. Instead, there is a constant torture inside my mind. Something I can never escape from. Something that will never leave me alone.
You know, I thought it would be hard to tell my story. I thought i wouldn't be able to find the words. Maybe it was my idea that the pain would make me clam up, but when I started to write I found the opposite. My tale fell from the pen like water in a fountain, landing on the page in the perfect order until even I was surprised at the quality of the content.
I never knew I had it in my to write prose so flowing it seemed like poetry, a song from the lips of a young girl. I never knew I had it in me to speak of my emotions, emotions that I have never let on about for hundreds and thousands of years.
That is how long I have walked the Earth, haunting humans with my ethereal presence. I was so thin—emaciated, even—that they thought I was a skeleton, back to make mischief. No, that wasn't it. I was back because I had to be. Back because I couldn't get out of this endless cycle.
And I was thin because I had been cursed to be thin. I had been cursed never to eat, never to rest, never to know any luxuries.
A curse indeed, and I have never forgiven the man that placed it on me. Still, I suppose if he had not I would have passed away an age ago. Maybe two ages.
I would have been like everyone else. Doesn't seem like such a bad deal to me, to be honest. I would like, occasionally, to be normal. Not forever. Maybe a day or two would be best, just so I could sample what it is like to be alive and not have to worry about things like...oh, I don't know. Not getting on their wrong side, that would be a good thing to forget.
Unfortunately, I'm already on their wrong side. I have a horrid feeling I always will be. They told me I could never redeem myself, so here I am again. Waiting for someone to set me free.
And no one exists that can. That is the curse that is upon me. No one exists that ever could end this cycle, so I remain here.
Forever, and all eternity.
Perhaps a little longer.

Enjoy the ride, Williams tells his Marquette team
Madison - Like all coaches, Marquette's Buzz Williams is continually trying to come up with ways to improve his basketball team.
One intangible yet vital area in which Williams would like to see improvement in the days and weeks ahead came up after the Golden Eagles' 61-54 victory over Wisconsin on Saturday at the Kohl Center.
"I don't know how long I will be able to do this, but I have to do a better job of making sure they have fun," Williams said after watching his team improve to 7-0.
The subject of fun came up when Williams was asked after the game if his players were the type that remained low-key after as big a victory as the one they experienced Saturday, and he got a bit emotional as he continued on with his response and attempted to put it all into perspective.
"I grew up my whole life wanting to be a high-major coach," said Williams. "And you don't know if you're going to get it. What happens to you if you do get it, you go, 'Man I have to hold on to this (bleep). I've got to hold on to this (bleep).'
"Because what am I going to do if I lose it? And I think that's of the devil. I've been blessed to have a chance, and however long it is that I have the chance, I want to make sure that everybody in our group remembers the chance they were given.
"They are 18 and 20 years old and it's OK to have fun. We've been pushing that all year long. It's been the funnest 26 practices that I've ever been a part of and the funnest seven games that I've even been a part of and everybody will say it's because we win, and that before today we hadn't played anybody. I got all that."
The 16th-ranked Golden Eagles viewed Saturday's game as a big one not just because it was against their instate rival but more important because it was against another nationally ranked team - UW is ranked No. 9 - and they felt a victory would set a positive tone going forward.
But, with a long season ahead, it remained a low-key group after the game.
Williams said the mood in the locker room was not celebratory and guards Darius Johnson-Odom and Madison native Vander Blue talked matter-of-factly about how it had been the team's "will to win" that allowed the Golden Eagles to hold off a second-half Wisconsin charge and prevail.
Marquette won without starting point guard Junior Cadougan. It was announced shortly before game time that Williams had suspended Cadougan for the game for violating team rules.
"Junior is not my biological son but in many respects he is my son," said Williams. "And the thing that I told his mom - he's from a single-parent household outside of the country (Ontario, Canada) - as I was eating in her house in September of Junior's senior year is that I was committed to making sure that I held him to the same standards that she did as she raised him as a single mom.
"He made a mistake yesterday and my decision was to suspend him from this game. That's the end of it. He made a mistake that was not intelligent in nature. It did not hurt anyone, but it was not how his mom raised him, and the commitment I made to her was that I was going to continue to hold him to that same standard."
While Williams did not get any more specific, he did say that it was not a legal problem.
Cadougan will return to practice Sunday and will play against Washington in New York on Tuesday.
Freshman Derrick Wilson started in place of Cadougan and went scoreless with no assists in 20 minutes. Johnson-Odom, Blue and Todd Mayo also helped run the team.
Asked how he thought the other players did in filling in for Cadougan, Williams referred to the outcome of the game.
"I think the reality speaks for itself," he said.
"Nobody knows what goes on on a daily basis with our group. I absolutely love every single one of my coaches, our support staff members and our players. And if we shut it down at the end of the year that will be good enough for me because we'll have had fun."

Two of the most influential legal recruiters of their generation are separately gearing up to launch new businesses in London.
Joe Macrae, who founded the ZMB business (which is now part of Hays), will be setting up a UK branch of his Californian search business Mlegal once his restrictive covenants expire in October this year.
Meanwhile, Gareth Quarry, who founded QD (now subsumed into Hudson), is understood to be actively exploring various options with a view to relaunching in London.
Confirming his plans, Macrae said: "In the last three years we've built one of the top two legal search firms in the Bay Area. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to bring the Mlegal business model here to London with the goal of establishing a top three position."
Quarry did not return repeated calls for comment; however, sources familiar with his plans say that he is considering a new headhunting operation, possibly in tandem with an existing London recruiter and with a view to acquiring a number of recruitment businesses around the world.
Five years ago Quarry sold the QD business to global recruitment company TMP Worldwide, now known as Hudson. At the time, The Lawyer revealed that TMP had paid £45.4m for QD, netting Quarry a total of £31.8m, £15m of which was in cash.

In Service Manager, we have a variety of scenarios where we needed to capture partial object state and apply that state at a later time. The state captured is usually all or part of some IT process. For example, when creating a Change Request from the UI, the user is prompted with a set of templates to choose from, each representing a different kind of change request. These templates are stored as Object Templates in MPs and pre-define a set of values to populate the change request form with.
Object templates can be used to store data about classes as well as projections. They are neither classes, nor objects, but rather blueprints (stored in management packs) for creating or modifying objects. In the attached MP you will find three different object templates.
- <ObjectTemplate ID="NFL.NFCDivision.Template" TypeID="NFL.Division" >
- <Property Path="$Target/Property[Type='NFL.Conference']/Name$">NFC</Property>
- </ObjectTemplate>
The first two set properties of a class. The Path notation is the same as used in projections, with the exception that you specify the particular property you want to set as well. You can specify as many or as few properties as you want, these objects don't need to be complete, but we do verification to ensure property values make sense.
Projections can also be defined:
- <ObjectTemplate ID="NFL.New.Template" TypeID="NFL.Conference.All" >
- <Property Path="$Target/Property[Type='NFL.Conference']/Name$">New Conference</Property>
- <Object Path="$Target/Path[Relationship='NFL.ConferenceHostsDivision']$">
- <Property Path="$Target/Property[Type='NFL.Conference']/Name$">New Conference</Property>
- <Property Path="$Target/Property[Type='NFL.Division']/Name$">New Division 1</Property>
- <Object Path="$Target/Path[Relationship='NFL.DivisionContainsTeam' TypeConstraint='NFC.Team']$">
- <Property Path="$Target/Property[Type='NFC.Team']/Name$">New Team</Property>

Wladimir Klitschko chases the 17th defence of his world heavyweight crowns against unbeaten Kubrat Pulev on Saturday with the legendary Joe Louis' record of 25 defences in the division getting closer.
The 38-year-old Klitschko has held at least the IBF and IBO heavyweight titles since 2006, adding the WBO title in 2008 by beating Sultan Ibragimov, before a unanimous decision against Britain's David Haye in 2011 gave him the WBA crown.
It says as much for Klitschko's longevity as the lack of genuine contenders that the giant Ukrainian has had few peers in the division.
Klitschko takes on Pulev in his home town Hamburg's O2 World, near the Imtech Arena where he beat Haye more than three years ago.
The Bulgarian has earned his first world title fight by becoming the IBF's mandatory challenger.
The 33-year-old has 11 knock-outs in 20 victories on his unblemished record, but sparked animosity when he boycotted Monday's pre-fight press conference having been left fuming after members of his promotional team were denied access.
"Because Klitschko is not behaving correctly, he doesn't get my respect," said Pulev. "He isn't afraid and he will be tested (during the bout)."
The Ukrainian champion pulled out of the original fight in September due to a bicep injury and was unimpressed by the challenger's pre-fight behaviour.

Terrorism isn't the only major topic on President Obama's schedule today -- there is also health care.
The president welcomes House and Senate Democratic leaders to the White House late this afternoon to discuss health care strategy as well as other legislative items.
The meeting takes place as Democrats consider a plan to by-pass the traditional conference committee as a way to resolve differences in the House and Senate health care bills. Creating a conference committee requires procedural votes in the Senate that Republicans could use to delay matters.
Instead, House Democrats may incorporate Senate changes as an amendment to its health care bill, though some Democrats have questioned the tactic. Republicans, meanwhile, have denounced the idea as a backroom deal.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, are expected to be at the White House today along with their top lieutenants.
The meeting is late, starting around 5:45 p.m.

Exploiting resources buried deep underground is no easy matter. Indeed, it can only be successful if a number of different factors fall into place. One frequently discussed problem concerns earthquakes that can be triggered by human activity in the subsurface. In March, more than 150 international researchers met up for the second Schatzalp workshop organised in Davos by the Swiss Seismological Service to exchange their views and findings on induced seismicity. Click here for all the posters on display and the presentations made at this workshop.
A recently published overview study investigating the current challenges associated with monitoring and handling induced seismicity showed that real-time monitoring of seismic activities in the subsurface is still not standard practice in many places. This makes it difficult to intervene promptly and take preventive measures. Furthermore, there are no standardised requirements or international norms regarding such monitoring, which especially creates difficulties for projects carried out in border areas.
On 28 March 2017, in consultation with Basel Industrielle Werke (IWB) the Department of Health of the Canton of Basel decided to re-open the borehole created in Basel as part of the "Deep Heat Mining" geothermal power project in 2006. The decision was prompted by an increase in microearthquake activity in the immediate vicinity of the borehole over the past few months. An extensive scientific study by the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) at the ETH Zurich revealed that the increased earthquake activity will most probably subside again in the long term if the borehole is opened.
The geothermal project in Basel launched in 2006 sought to create an artificial fracture system in rock 4,000-5,000 m underground to use as a geothermal reservoir for power generation. To this end, cold water was injected into the substrate under high pressure. In the course of this process, a large number of microearthquakes occurred, some of them noticeable, and one earthquake with a magnitude of 3.4 magnitude (ML), which caused minor damage to buildings. As a result, work on the project was interrupted and then stopped altogether in 2009 after a comprehensive risk analysis. The borehole was opened in December 2006 after increased seismicity, and closed again in April 2011.
Earthquake activity in the vicinity of the borehole has been monitored by a seismic network since the start of the project. The indications from the amassed data are that seismic activity in the stimulated area has more or less continually decreased since the project ended in 2006. Roughly a year after the closure of the borehole in April 2011, seismic activity in the immediate vicinity of the borehole markedly increased again. This increase has been particularly noticeable since the second half of 2016 and typically consisted of swarms of microearthquakes, with phases of increased activity over a number of weeks being followed by quieter periods. So far, none of these earthquakes were felt by the public.
Apart from the seismic activity, in recent months the spatial distribution of the quakes has also shifted. The latest earthquakes occurred at the southern and northern edges of the previously affected area, suggesting that the artificially induced fractures are spreading. In addition, measurements show that the hydraulic pressure in the reservoir (pore pressure) has steadily increased since the borehole was closed. A detailed analysis of the seismic data and modelling of the relationship between earthquakes and increasing pore pressure have shown that even modest pressure increases in the reservoir can significantly increase seismicity.
Analyses performed by the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) show that a noticeable minor earthquake with a magnitude of 2 may well occur within the next 12 months unless steps are taken to lower the pressure. The probability of this happening is between 55% and 85%. The current probability of an earthquake as strong as the one that occurred in 2006, which had a magnitude of 3.4, is around 5%. Based on its modelling and the decline in seismicity observed between 2007 and 2011, the SED expects that opening the borehole for the next one or two years should lower the average seismicity rate by between 50% and 90% percent.
Over the past decade, the SED has advised and supported project operators and in particular cantonal authorities (e.g. Basel-Stadt, Jura, Vaud, Thurgau and the city of St. Gallen) on deep geothermics. This work focussed on seismological aspects of the environmental impact assessment (EIA), seismic monitoring and the review of operational and seismic safety concepts.

Earthquakes and geothermal energy – a brief explanation of key correlations
Two earthquakes occurred near Vallorcine (F), close to the Swiss border on 20 March 2017. Both events were widely felt in the epicentral area as well as in the lower Valais between Martigny and Monthey. The first earthquake had a magnitude of 3.3 and happened at 1:31 h. The second earthquake, with a magnitude of 3.0, occurred at 22:09 h. The distance between the epicenters of two events is a few hundred meters. In general, earthquakes of this magnitude do not cause any damage. The region of Vallorcine has seen about a dozen of felt earthquakes since an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.9 on September 8, 2005.
The epicenter of the Magnitude 4.6 (local or Richter magnitude ML) earthquake of 2017/03/06 21:12 local time is located about 3 km NE of the village of Urnerboden in the border region of cantons Uri, Schwyz, and Glarus. The preliminary focal depth is determined to be about 5 km. The Ml 4.6 earthquake was preceded by several foreshocks with ML ranging between 0.2 to 2.2. In the first 12 hours after the ML 4.6 event, the SED recorded about 25 aftershocks with magnitudes between ML 0.5 and 2.9. Further aftershocks, some of them perceptible, are expected over the coming days. Earthquakes with a similar or even larger magnitude than the current main shock are unlikely, but cannot be excluded.
The shaking from this event was felt by the majority of people across Central Switzerland. The Swiss Seismological Service also received more than 5000 earthquake reports from a region of about 200 km diameter, including Ticino and the cantons of Bern, Aargau, Basel, Zurich and Grisons up to Chur. The high public interest was evident also in the up to 500'000 requests per minute on the SED websites. This high demand led to the SED's web pages partially not being accessible in the first 40 minutes after the event, and after that for some time with delays.
The epicenter is located in the Helvetic nappes. The preliminary focal depth of 5 km indicates a source at the border of the sedimentary cover and the crystalline basement. The moment tensor solution for this earthquake indicates it had a moment magnitude of MW 4.1 with a strike-slip mechanism, with either a NNW-SSE or WSW-ENE striking fault plane, consistent with other events in this region. These mechanisms indicate northwest-southeast oriented compression of the crust in this region of the Helvetic domain. Last night's earthquake occurred close to the magnitude 4.0 (ML) Urnerboden earthquake of 5 May 2003. The depth and the focal mechanism of that event are very similar to yesterday's earthquake and it seems likely that both events are associated with the same fault system.
Generally speaking, tectonic stresses in the Alps are the result of the collision between the European and the African lithospheric plates. However, due to the complex tectonic structure and history of the Alpine collision zone, significant along-strike variations in the tectonic regimes are observed.
The highest acceleration measured by seismic instruments were reported from Linthal (GL) and reached 85 cm/s2. On average, earthquakes of this size happen approximately once every 5 years in Switzerland. The last earthquake with a similarly large magnitude was the Vallorcine (F) (4.9 ML) event close to the Swiss border near Martigny (VS) on 8 September, 2005. It was strongly felt in the Valais.
On Wednesday 7 March, the SED installed two additional stations at Urnerboden and Bisisthal. These stations will allow characterizing the aftershock sequence and thus the properties of the activated fault in more detail.
Earthquakes are inevitable, but the damage they may be expected to cause can be mitigated in relatively simple ways. Find out the recommended behaviour before, during and after a powerful earthquake.
Switzerland experiences between 500 and 800 earthquakes a year, around 10 of which are powerful enough (with a magnitude of approximately 2.5 or higher) to be felt by the country's inhabitants. Find out more about the natural hazards with the greatest damage-causing potential in Switzerland.
If you want to be kept informed at all times, here you will find an overview of the various information services provided by the Swiss Seismological Service (SED).
In Switzerland, earthquakes are the natural hazard with the greatest potential for causing damage. They cannot currently be prevented or reliably predicted. But, thanks to extensive research, much is now known about how often and how intensely the earth could shake at a given location in the future. Consult a variety of different maps using our interactive web tool to find out how likely certain earthquakes are in Switzerland.
Research & Teaching
We are often asked what staff at the SED do when no earthquakes are occurring. The answer is they conduct research in a variety of fields, constituting SED's main scientific activities described in our research field section.
About Us
The Swiss Seismological Service (SED) at ETH Zurich is the federal agency responsible for monitoring earthquakes in Switzerland and its neighboring countries and for assessing Switzerland's seismic hazard. When an earthquake happens, the SED informs the public, authorities, and the media about the earthquake's location, magnitude, and possible consequences. The activities of the SED are integrated in the federal action plan for earthquake precaution.
Around 10 times a year on average you will hear or read about an earthquake occurring in Switzerland. However, the vast majority of quakes recorded by the SED go unnoticed by the general public because they fall below the threshold of human perception and can only be detected by sensitive measuring devices. The Swiss Seismological Service (SED) operates a network of more than 150 seismic stations across Switzerland.

Lying there,
Hole in my chest,
Two holes in my chest.
It was the Traitor that caused it,
It cause this pain,
Made the holes,
Bleeding out,
Memories flooding.
Why did she do it,
April fifth,
Drinking wine,
She smiles at me,
We are happy together.
Going to sleep,
All is well,
Or so I thought,
Hearing the screams,
Running to daughters room,
She's holding the knife,
My daughters dead,
She starts to laugh.
Back on the ground,
Still bleeding out,
She took everything.
Sirens in the distance,
I need to move,
It can't end here,
Getting up,
Stumbling forward,
Still Bleeding out,
I'll make her pay.

By Matt Kelley, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON Top executives at four companies that jettisoned their employee pension plans received $49.5 million in retirement and severance benefits in the years before the companies filed for bankruptcy, while retirees saw their benefits cut by as much as two thirds, congressional investigators conclude in a report released Thursday.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) reports that pensions at the companies, United Airlines, US Airways, Polaroid and Reliance Insurance, were underfunded by more than $11 billion when the companies turned them over to a government-backed insurance fund. The report says executives at those four companies and six others that abandoned their pension plans took in a total of $350 million in pay and perks in the years leading up to the bankruptcies.
"If the pension is getting deeper into trouble and the executives are getting richer, there's something wrong with that picture," said House Education and Labor Committee Chairman George Miller, D-Calif.
Miller requested the report as part of an examination of the troubles facing the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp., the federal pension plan insurer. The PBGC, which insures pension plans covering 44 million people, warned this month that it has a deficit of nearly $22 billion.
Miller is sponsoring one of three proposals to let struggling companies take a break from their required pension contributions while the economy improves. He said he is considering how to craft a provision to "tie executive compensation to the status of the pension plan."
Other legislation Miller said he is considering is a plan to freeze executive compensation if a company's rank-and-file pension plan becomes significantly underfunded.
Restrictions on retirement pay could deter executives from joining a troubled company or encourage them to quit, said executive compensation expert Ira Kay of the Watson Wyatt consulting firm. "Retaining and motivating executives to run their companies as best as possible is the best outcome for all participants in a pension," Kay said.
The GAO examined compensation for executives at 10 of the largest companies that turned their pensions over to the government in the past decade. At United, for example, CEO Glenn Tilton and two other executives got $7.6 million in retirement benefits from 2002 through 2006, during which time the airline shed four pension plans covering 122,000 workers. A retired United pilot told the GAO he gets only a third of the pension he had expected. PBGC benefits are limited to $4,500 per month.
United spokeswoman Jean Medina said Tilton's $4.5 million retirement trust replaced benefits he lost by leaving Chevron and "had nothing to do with a United pension plan." The trust was approved by the company's board of directors and its bankruptcy creditors, she said.
Currently, the GAO says, the PBGC is a low-priority creditor and would be unlikely to get any money if a bankruptcy judge ordered executives to repay or forgo their retirement packages.

The Alabama Crimson Tide's season is turning into a parody of Herman's Hermits, Henry the VIII. With the prevailing line, "Second verse, same as the first".
Seems like every week, Alabama is a double digit favorite. And every week, Alabama faces a new challenge. Last week it was Tyler Bray and Tennessee's potent passing attack. Mission accomplished. The week before that, it was Missouri and their up-tempo, no huddle, spread offense. The only thing that slowed the Tide in Columbus was the only thing that was out of their control, the weather. Mission accomplished. Before that, an up and coming, rejuvenated Ole Miss. Check. A feisty Florida Atlantic? 40-7. A motivated Arkansas team? Goose Egg...literally. Western Kentucky, Michigan? Check, Check.
So you get the picture. Every week, we try to come up with compelling story lines to garner your interest in whomever the Tide happen to be playing.
Like this week.
Mississippi State rolls into Tuscaloosa with a perfect 7-0 record for the first time since 1999. The Bulldogs are ranked #13 and are riding the dynamic play of up and coming QB, Tyler Russell. They have a stingy defense and an efficient offense. And they do not turn the ball over.
But...you knew "but" was coming. But, this is Alabama. This is not Auburn or Tennessee or Kentucky or Troy or Middle Tennessee or Jackson State or South Alabama--a collection of less than impressive opponents for Mississippi State this season. This is Alabama. This is the No 1 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide. And Alabama has more wins than Auburn, Tennessee and Kentucky have COMBINED. (Unless you are an avid college football fan, you've probably never even heard of the other teams)
So here's where I get you excited for the game and tell you it will be closer than the experts think. Wait, the experts have Alabama has 13.5 point favorites. So it probably won't be closer than the experts think. Alabama pulls away at the end because they will wear the Bulldogs down with a relentless and stubborn running game to compliment the steady play of AJ McCarron.
Have we heard this before?
"The second verse, same as the first."
The Tide get their VIII win of the season, in royal fashion.
Where: Bryant-Denny Stadium
When: 8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN
Where To Watch Online Livestream: No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 11 Mississippi State

Far as the first round pick is concerned, I would like the Ravens to take the guy who is their highest rated OL, DL or LB unless someone ridiculous falls to them at another position.
Vellano is a guy I like. He has intangibles that make me think he will be a better player than his measurables would predict.
Margus Hunt is a boom or bust guy. He could be a monster or could be Vernon Ghoulston lol. What happens with a guy like Kruger does have an effect on how you view a prospect like him to some extent. If you know you lost Kruger and need a pass rusher your going to be more likely to assume some risk. If your retain Kruger you might be more inclined to pick another position or go with a guy who has a lower ceiling but higher floor so to speak.

Don't Know What To Do?
- Article Summary
- Dangers of 2C-B
- 2C-B Drug Testing by Urinalysis
- Marquis Reagent Drug Test
- Mecke Reagent Drug Test
- Simon's Reagent Drug Test
2C-B Drug Testing
The 1970s gave birth to a new psychedelic drug called 2C-B. The white powder was first synthesized by Alexander Shuglin and considered an entactogen by psychologists. The ecstasy like drug was mainly used by the rave community in the mid-1970s as a way to aid pain and induce feelings of pleasure. In its early days, the drug was considered to be harmless due to users claiming to have very limited side effects. The drug was sold internationally as an aphrodisiac until the mid-1990s. It was at that time the DEA determined the drug unsafe and passed the Controlled Substances Act in 1995 that labeled 2C-B as a Schedule 1 drug, thus making it illegal in the United States.
Dangers of 2C-B
After years of being a recreational drug that flew under the radar, law enforcement began to see a boom in the late 1990s that gave major reasons for concern. This party drug is often confused or sold as ecstasy and dealers are getting rich off of selling the synthetic drug in any form that they choose. The dangers of synthetic drugs are the incredibly high risk of contamination and accidental overdose by users because of unknown dosages being sold. 2C-B has a low risk of hallucinations and tripping when taken in low doses, but just a few milligrams can be the difference between a short term sense of euphoria and a very bad trip. In large doses, the high can be even more intense than that of mushrooms, a similar type of psychedelic drug. The amount of young people and party goers has caused law enforcement and many states to begin testing for the use of the illegal narcotic. Until recently, most states did not test for 2C-B usage in an individual, but rather used testing that was designed for a group of what is called "club drugs."
2C-B Drug Testing by Urinalysis
One of the many difficult issues that arises with 2C-B usage is the way in which law enforcement is able to test for the drug in potential users. Currently, NIDA - 5 is the urinalysis drug test that is mainly used for detection of the amphetamines, cocaine, opiates, marijuana and PCP. It does not however pick up the use of 2C-B. The broader Standard 10 test is hardly ever given because of the expense and the chances of 2C-B being picked identified by this test is also very rare. The fact of the matter is you must be specifically tested for 2C-B and most states have not invested in the tests that would make that possible. There are however tests that law enforcement commonly uses to test supplies that are seized in raids and arrests.
Marquis Reagent Drug Test
The Marquis Reagent is a drug testing kit whose primary use has been for law enforcement to use during field testing for the presence of amphetamines and opiates. Only within the past few years has the drug testing kit been made available for individual use in hopes of decreasing the risk associated with buying synthetic street drugs. The test works by causing a chemical reaction and changing colors depending on the drug that the reagent interacts with.
Mecke Reagent Drug Test
The Mecke Reagent testing kit works much in the same way as the Marquis Reagent drug test. This test however is able to tell the difference between DXM and MDMA. The testing kit uses sulfuric acid to result in different color chemical changes. The ability to tell the difference between the amphetamines is vital in making a clear distinction in order for law enforcement to track the sales and uses of the different drugs properly.
Simon's Reagent Drug Test
The Simon's Reagent drug test is a secondary test to be used after an initial finding of an ecstasy like drug is found. This test is used to differentiate between a methamphetamine and an amphetamine. The test uses sodium nitroprusside and two reagents to produce results.
The rise in 2C-B use amongst young people is posing increased threats to the safety of the community. 2C-B drug testing is still in its infancy stage, but its similarity to other amphetamines allows for law enforcement to make arrests. In addition, the field test kits available are helping officials curb the rise of this party drug, in hopes of stopping an epidemic before it gets started.

Whitman Theatre
160 Walt Whitman Road,
Huntington Station,
3 people favorited this theater
Showing 26 - 50 of 123 comments
I so remember the big iron comedy / tragedy wall sculptures on the inside of the theater. As kids, while waiting for the movie to start, we would ponder "Geez, imagine if they fell off the wall onto the packed house?" Thankfully , no Sensurround movies ever played there.
It's so rare to see old signs ANYWHERE on Long Island these days. Happy it's still there & funny that it's not worth vandalizing ?
I always look for it when I drive that part of Route 110.
The Mall management probably has forgotten about it. It's sort of blends in with the background (which probably also has kept down vandalism).
Yep…it still lives!
2012 — we nee a pylon update – does it still live??
Way back when Bloop mentioned the blue decor in the lobby. The large Century's sign on the facade of the building was red with the theatre name in blue.
The pylon is still there and not, amazingly, vandalized. The only time I was in the theatre was the day it closed. Everything had been removed from the lobby, candy stand,etc. Can't believe they were that anxious to repurpose it. A handful of people were watching some movie, not the one on the marquee which they had't even bothered to change in who knows how long.
My imagination? very few theaters had benches, seats, places to sit in the lobby; but the Whitman did as I recall ?? I loved the blue (and green mixed in ?) color scheme.
It lives on and on!
It's like the monolith from "2001: a Space Odyssey" !
I noticed that, too, the other day. What always surprised me about the pylon was that it just said Whitman Theatre. Century was never shy about identifying their properties, particularly on the facades of their later theatres. Perhaps a zoning thing. The simple design may be the reason for it's survival; it's innocuous.
As of March 2011; the Pylon is still up and in nice shape! Maybe this is something symbolic? The spirit of Cinema Treasures fans are keeping it preserved. I liked this theater because it looked "very 1960s" in the 80s!
A.K.A Loews Whitman?
Photo of the Whitman Theater pylon sign on Route 110 taken on December 8, 2010 (yes, it is Elvis' birthday)…Note: the electric meter is still attached. It's the Whitman because it is right across the street from the birthplace of Walt Whitman.
Pylon is still up and not vandalized. Amazing.
pylon is up as of last week ..looks like it did years ago…good shape!
JUNE 27, 2008. THE PYLON IS STILL THERE! The memory lives on!
KRB555! you rock! Do you remember when there was no fast food in the Whitman Mall, and us hungry teens, has to cross Route 110 to go to Arby's (which used to be WIMPY BURGER in the 1960's). (LOVED Arby's Horsey Sauce!). I remember my brother and his friends went to the Whitman to see "Go Ape" (all 5 Planet of the Apes movies). I passed on that as I was too intimidated to sit in a movie theatre for 7 hours! Built in 1964, the Walt Whitman mall suffered after the great McCrorys burned down (in the May 1991) . After that, the mall was "upscaled" and geared twards affluent women and teenaged girls. This is the way ALL Long Island malls have gone! And they are more expensive than EVER!
I lived in the Walt Whitman mall between 1968-1978. My house was directly behind the mall on NY Avenue – so least be said that I saw just about every movie in the Whitman. Just a few that stick out at me are House of Wax in 3D, Patton & Batman (the Adam West original). Does anyone remember the summer that the Whitman ran marathons to keep the kids out of the heat (and IMHO, away from their parents)? The biggie that summer was the Planet of the Apes marathon (all 4-5 movies for a single price and it lasted 8 hours). There weren't that many movies with sequels back then, so showings were limited. The one thing I will always get a kick out of at the Whitman was when the Route 110 Pylon only read in large letters "Fight Pay TV" – instead of promoting the movie playing at the time. Of course back then, Pay TV equated to what became Cable TV. What great times they were.
Now it's a Cheesecake Factory restaurant
I became friends with im when i went to manage the COMMACK TWIN after his friend Dwane died…When i was dm he was at LOEWS….
Sure, he mentioned Bruce a lot. Jim was among the last of a dying breed. I'm glad I got a chance to work under his watch. A big part of making me who I am today.
Did he ever mention BRUCE who managed the Whitman and was the ast DM.He was a great guy also.
The last mtime i spoke with him he was at bay terrace!He was a great guy that got the shaft many of times after RKO SOLD OUT!

P.K. Subban is finding ways to stay busy away from the rink during the NHL lockout, and his latest endeavor takes him to the pizza parlor. The polarizing Canadiens defenseman has already tried his hand at meteorology during the latest NHL work stoppage, and with no end in sight, he appears to be willing to dabble in other things — like pizza making. Subban stars in a new video for Boston Pizza, in which he plays an eager to impress new employee, working his hockey influences into his workday at the pizza shop. If the pizza place sounds familiar, other than the Boston part, it's because Boston Pizza is the Canadian pizza chain that actually changed its name during the Stanley Cup Final in 2011 between the Bruins and Canucks. While Subban may get under the skin of Bruins fans, it's probably safe to give him the edge over Bruins forward Milan Lucic when it comes to acting skills. This, of course, is where you would insert some sort of joke about diving. Check out the video below, with a stick tap to the guys over at Yahoo's Puck Daddy blog.

Chilling Spree
Here is the comprehensive list of things cooler than a xylophone: Um...everything.
Sunglasses, cheetahs, an old cell phone, vacuum cleaners, poetry, picture frames, poetry about picture frames, lightbulbs, A League of Their Own on DVD, whatever. They're all better. Nobody has ever said, "You know what would make this situation better? A mother-effin' xylophone, baby, that's what." It just doesn't happen.
Now, here is the list of things cooler than a xylophone when veteran xylophonist Cinco Calderon is behind them: Zilch.
Richmond Chill Bar
4704 Richmond, 713-622-0775, www.ridethechill.com.
Nothing. At. All.

Charlie Sheen could be riding a white tiger with solid diamond testicles through The Men's Club (3303 Sage). Doesn't matter.
When Calderon has mallets in his hands, beating blood and glory out of the bars, it seems less like he's playing a xylophone and more like he's destroying God's piano with thundersticks. He is king.
And that's why at this very moment, everyone inside of the tiny Richmond Chill Bar (4704 Richmond) is enraptured, listening as Calderon tink-tink-tanks his way through a blues solo.
The xylophonist is flanked by the excessively talented bass player Spare Time Murray, who is every bit the sleepy blues dynamo his name implies, and Little Terry Rogers, a harmonica player/vocalist who sounds like he's been grown from the earth specifically to sing the blues; he even sings into one of those vintage steel microphones.
The triumvirate forms Little Terry and the Blues Birds, Chill's Monday-night house band for more than two years now. The fluctuating lineup occasionally includes a drummer and guitar player, and teenage prodigy Rebecca Laird sometimes sits in on guitar, but mostly it's just these three guys.
When you drive by it, which you've almost certainly done several times, Chill looks like little more than a decent restaurant. Food is available, but that's hardly all the bar is.
Tiled floors, low ceilings and a moderate amount of unassuming decor give the venue a living-room feel. A curious shelf situated along one wall holds a bunch of old board games and some trophy fish made from what appears to be parts of an old car.
"Sometimes I'm so tired from working — I work my ass off — that I come here to wind down," says Ross Paine, 24, employed in something he calls "orthopedic sales."
"We've been coming here for a few years," Paine adds. "I grew up around a lot of pretentious people, so I'd rather not hang around with them."
At one point in the evening, a woman and her large golden Labrador retriever walk in and sit down. She chooses a seat; he opts for the floor.
The dog — Slugger, as it were — finds a few empty hands willing to scratch and pat him. When the hands' owners grow tired of that, they simply say, "Go lay down," and that's exactly what he does. No one blinks.
"He's a regular," says his owner with a smile, before starting a conversation with two strangers.
So goes the night, with people vacillating between listening to Little Terry, Spare Time and Cinco and relaxing on the front-side patio. A dog waits for people to pet him, and some guys at the back of the room shout out song titles for the band to play.
Just chilling. In a bar. On Richmond.
Little Terry and the Blues Birds; Snoop Dogg
Three things: First, you can e-mail Little Terry and the Blues Birds at email@example.com. Second, bartender Jaime Cobden tells us Wednesdays are Chill's busiest nights. That's the bar's open-mike night, which is really more of an acoustic-music showcase. Third, Snoop Dogg is at House of Blues Friday. Somehow, some way, he's been coming up with funky-ass shit, like, every single day for almost two decades. Respect.
