Ahead of next week's meeting of the New England Fishery Management Council, Senator John Kerry today urged additional specific actions to provide relief to Massachusetts fishermen.
"Fishing is more than a deep part of Massachusetts' culture and history; it's also the foundation of many working people's livelihoods and their families' economic security, supporting more than 77,000 jobs in Massachusetts today," Sen. Kerry wrote in a letter to Colin McAllister Cunningham, Jr., Acting Chairman of the Council. "As I've said repeatedly, I'm not about to let these fishermen's way of life end on my watch. It's up to all of us to make smart decisions in the present to support fishing and guarantee it has a strong future."
Last month, Senator Kerry chaired a hearing in Boston examining the economic state of the Massachusetts' industry. Following that hearing, Kerry sent a letter to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Administer Dr. Jane Lubchenco urging detailed, specific actions to keep Massachusetts fishermen in business and ensure the short- and long-term health of this critical local economy.
In today's letter, Kerry outlined several specific actions for the Council to take including:
* meeting in Massachusetts to further discuss the major regulatory issues facing New England fishermen and what improvements can be made to assist small boat fishermen;
* rolling over unused quota above the existing 10 percent limit;
* opening areas off limit to fishing which no longer have relevance under the current Hard TAC management system;
* working with NOAA to develop a system for adjusting errors in allocations to ensure fairness for fishermen;
* working with NOAA to develop a long term at-sea monitoring plan; AND
* working collaboratively with the Science Center and NMFS to help mitigate any negative impacts resulting from the upcoming Gulf of Maine cod assessment.
The full text of the letter is below:
November 9, 2011
Mr. Colin McAllister Cunningham, Jr.
Acting Chairman
New England Fishery Management Council
50 Water Street, Mill 2
Newburyport, MA 01950
Dear Mr. Cunningham,
As you know, today too many Massachusetts fishermen -- particularly small boat fishermen and related local businesses - are finding it increasingly difficult just to stay in business. Fishing is more than a deep part of Massachusetts' culture and history; it's also the foundation of many working people's livelihoods and their families' economic security, supporting more than 77,000 jobs in Massachusetts today. As I've said repeatedly, I'm not about to let these fishermen's way of life end on my watch. It's up to all of us to make smart decisions in the present to support fishing and guarantee it has a strong future. That's why I am writing to ask for your help in moving the New England Fishery Management Council forward on a number of issues that were discussed during the Senate Commerce Committee field hearing I chaired to review Massachusetts fishery management plans earlier this fall. I very much appreciate your appearance and your testimony at the hearing.
I have followed up with NOAA on our discussions at the hearing, and, in the lead-up to the Council's meeting next week in Newport, I wanted to also follow up with you about the urgency of the New England Fishery Management Council moving forward with some specific steps and actions. I understand that many of these issues are complicated and have been under discussion for many years, but I am confident that addressing each of them is vital. My approach here is to lay out tangible options to help move things forward -- and I cannot emphasize enough that now is a critical moment for action.
First, as I discussed at the hearing, I would like to have a meeting in Massachusetts to bring together all of members of the Council, NOAA, and Massachusetts fishing representatives to further discuss the major regulatory issues facing New England fishermen and the improvements that can be made to assist small boat fishermen. Please let me know when you and the other Council members are available for this meeting.
Second, I would like the Council to support increasing the rollover of unused quota above the existing 10 percent limit. As you know, reports indicate that the available fishery-wide quota is, in most cases, nowhere near fully utilized. For example, only 67 percent of the total allocation of Georges Bank Cod has been caught and only 16.5 percent of Georges Bank Haddock. With the exception of Georges Bank yellowtail, sectors are permitted to carry over up to 10 percent of unused quota for each stock into the next fishing year under Amendment 16.
Earlier this year, along with members of the Massachusetts Congressional delegation, I sent a letter to NOAA asking for an increase in the percentage of unmet quota that can be rolled over into the 2011 fishing year. NOAA has since responded in support of increased rollover and has urged the Council to add the issue to its November agenda. Adding unmet allocations of fishing stocks to the assigned quota for the coming year will allow the Massachusetts fleet to fish within the current fishing year allocations and set reasonable limits for next year to provide the fleet with an opportunity to profit. This action would be greatly appreciated by fishermen across Massachusetts.
Third, it is my understanding that the Council's Habitat Committee is working on an Omnibus Habitat Amendment in conjunction with the Council's Groundfish Committee. It is my hope and expectation that the new Omnibus Habitat Amendment will eliminate some of the areas that are currently off limits to fishing which no longer have relevance under the current Hard TAC management system. Specifically, the removal of Closed Areas 1 and 2 on Georges Bank would aid the offshore fleet and lifting the Western Gulf of Maine Closure is vital to protecting the inshore fleet. Additionally, it is critically important that fishing grounds of economic significance, like Stellwagon Bank, are preserved as historic fishing grounds when considering the expansion of Essential Fish Habitats. In my conversations with Dr. Lubchenco, she has committed to having NOAA examine the feasibility of opening additional nearshore areas and expects NOAA to make a formal proposal to the Council this November. I hope that the Council will work with me to develop recommendations to preserve and increase fishing areas around Massachusetts that are currently off limits to fishing.
Fourth, I have heard from several fishermen who, due to data errors at NOAA, received incorrect allocations to begin the 2010 fishing year. While these mistakes are recognized by the Agency and were corrected for the 2011 fishing year, these fishermen must be compensated for their 2010 loss. When I spoke to NOAA about this issue, I was told that there was no mechanism in place to correct such mistakes. I would like the Council to work with NOAA to develop a system for adjusting errors in allocations to ensure fairness for fishermen. For reference, both the Bureau of Reclamation and the Bureau of Land Management have mechanisms in place to achieve responsive allocation adjustments. While these mechanisms may not be seamlessly applicable to the fishing industry, I feel that it is urgent and essential that a mechanism be put in place to provide compensation for fishermen who have been harmed by improper allocations due to administrative error.
Fifth, after hearing from many fishermen about the inability of the industry to absorb the cost of at-sea monitoring at this time, I worked closely with NOAA to ensure that monitoring will be covered for the 2012 fishing year. While I am grateful for the recent announcement that these costs will not be placed on the industry in 2012, I remain concerned about the lack of a long term monitoring plan. I ask that the Council make the development of a long term monitoring plan a top priority in the upcoming months.
Finally, although we are only in the preliminary stages of the current Gulf of Maine (GOM) cod assessment, I am extremely concerned about the potential impacts of a drastically lowered assessment. I hope that you and the Council members will remain open-minded and work collaboratively with the Science Center and NMFS to help mitigate any negative impacts resulting from the GOM cod assessment.
Once again, thank you for testifying at the fishery field hearing. I hope we can work together to take that discussion and transform it into proactive and tangible steps forward. Thank you in advance for your timely response to the issues outlined in this letter. Given the economic circumstances of our fishing community, time is of the essence.
John F. Kerry

This new tweak will let you scroll with motion, or with buttons.
Have you ever wanted to scroll through a Web Page on iOS, but the Web Page was so long that you got tired of flicking your finger up and down to find things? We have a solution for you! You can now scroll by tilting your iDevice using the accelerometer, or if you prefer, the volume buttons. This tweak will not disable your ability to scroll normally, so you get to pick between all three options on demand! The tweak is called PhyScroll and it's made by a developer named Pedro Franceschi.
The settings allow you to control the sensitivity of the accelerometer while scrolling and the amount of pixels scrolled through using the buttons. The settings also let you control which settings allow you to scroll (buttons or movement), and allow the option for you to use an activator action to activate PhyScroll. By default, you need to press down both volume buttons to enable PhyScroll then release. From there you can use either the volume buttons or the accelerometer (or both) to scroll depending on which options you picked from the settings. To disable PhyScroll, just press both volume buttons again, and release them. The settings can be viewed below:
Here is a video demonstration of PhyScroll in action by the developer himself:
I contacted Pedro Franceschi via email to learn a little more about him and also about PhyScroll:
Anthony: Write about a paragraph describing a little bit about yourself.
Pedro: My name is Pedro Franceschi, I'm a 15 year-old iOS developer. I'm Brazilian and I started coding when I was 10 years old. I've been developing things for iPhone since 2008, even before the iPhone SDK was released using alternative methods. I've released PhySwitch (in Cydia Store too) and now PhyScroll. That's a basic description of me. :)
Anthony: What does PhyScroll do for iPhone users?
Pedro: PhyScroll allows iPhone and iPad users to scroll in any application with their hardware (accelerometer and volume buttons).
Anthony: Why did you create PhyScroll?
Pedro: I created PhyScroll because I always hated to scroll with my fingers in long texts, like RSS feeds, so, I was thinking about using accelerometer and volume buttons to make it easier and faster.
Anthony: What was the hardest part about making PhyScroll?
Pedro: The hardest part probably was to make the scroll smooth enough using accelerometer. I spent days finding good values of acceleration/deceleration to achieve the smoothness you see today.
Anthony: Are there any configuration settings for PhyScroll? If so, what are your preferred settings?
Pedro: Yes, there are configuration settings in PhyScroll's preferences in the Settings app, and the default configuration is my preferred. :)
This tweak has a really cool idea behind it. Nice work, Pedro!
Name: PhyScroll
Price: $1.99
Version: 1.0
Repo: BigBoss
Developer: Pedro Franceschi
Editor's Rating: / 4.5/5
The Giveaway!
Pedro Franceschi was generous enough to give away FIVE copies of PhyScroll!

Interesting review (as ever!)
Very valid conclusion that the 12MP sensor crammed in to this camera almost inevitably leads to very dodgy pictures at higher ISO values. Yet Ricoh pitch this as an "enthusiasts" camera. Well let me tell Ricoh something: a real enthusiast will know enough to know that they are simply pitching yet another "Ooooh look how many megapixels I've got" camera to people who don't know better.
Here's an interesting thought: imagine this camera had a state-of-the art 8MP (or 6MP or whatever) sensor. All other things being equal, would the overall "Picture Quality" have been better? I say "Yes". Until Ricoh (and others) grasp this, they won't sell their stuff to *real* enthusiasts...
We all say the megapixel wars are over. But no one appears to have told that to the manufacturers!
I've used a Canon G6 for four years now (without ever really liking it - it can't focus indoors, and ISO 200 is only just about usable...) so the combo of decent image stabilisation and pocketable size, with usable ISO 400 seems fine to me. Shows how far things have come... That said, I've recommended Fuji F31s and F40s to everyone I know, so when the Canon (or Ricoh) is out of its depth I just grab a Fuji from someone ;-)
Blurry out of focus pictures of the camera?
Yes, it hasn't gone unnoticed. ;)
I think you missed the big upgrade here: the RAW processing speed has gone from 5 seconds per image to 5 RAW images per second. Frankly, the JPEG image processing engine is irrelevant (not least because it's so poor), because you can now shoot excellent quality RAW files without the speed handicap of the old GX-100. This is big news!
I like this model for various reasons. I did seriously consider the Sigma DP1 but appeared to be a very tempremental beast with unreliable white balance, generally very slow shutter lag & AF, very long read/write and processing times, prone to lens flare, low res LCD, colour castes, longwinded menu, poor flash, no historgram, can't shoot RAW and JPEG, bad/no macro, highest ISO 800 and so on.
The Canon G9 on the other hand has an excellent feature set Raw+JPEG, rugged, solid construction and excellent build quality, it doesn't have that killer 'wide' 28mm or 24mm as with the GX200 and tilting viewfinder which is useful if you are stuck in a wheel chair. The GX200 is a high-end F2.5 24mm ultra-wide-angle zoom in a pocketable compact body, manual shooting (aperture, shutter priority and SNAP mode, lovely jubly), electronic view-finder (wheel chair, hello), 460K LCD and continuous RAW capture to 5 frames !!! WOWzer. The electronic level could prove useful too. My Settings options great for registering different shooting settings. Manul flash adjustment, at last! along with "1st Curtain" or "2nd Curtain." D'uh, what's that for? (better google it),what else!?!?
𧸖 ? Isn't that more expensive than a Nikon D40 kit ? The D40 won't be that much larger and will have far better image quality.
Noticed that some of the sample photographs, including both black-and-white ones, were taken in Budapest, Hungary. Just curious, did you happen to be in Budapest for a couple of days while doing the review, or was the test unit provided by Ricoh Hungary?
I happened to have a weekend break in Budapest just after I received the camera, so took advantage of the better weather just for you!
Jamie, how long is the delay between capture of RAW images in single shot mode? How long is the wait after a 5 frame RAW burst?
It shoots at around 1fps in single shot and continuous. The delay after the burst is around 20 seconds (using a standard Sandisk SD card. In JPEG mode it's still around 1fps with continuous shooting to card capacity.
Luan Bach said:
"𧸖 ? Isn't that more expensive than a Nikon D40 kit ? The D40 won't be that much larger and will have far better image quality."
Not that much larger? I don't think you appreciate how small and light the GX200 is compared to the D40. You can put it in a shirt pocket (bit of a squeeze, but still).
Jamie Harrison said:
"The delay after the burst is around 20 seconds (using a standard Sandisk SD card."
Apparently, if you use a fast card the buffer-full delay is about 8 seconds.
Ok - so what are the better alternatives to the GX200 if you want to have something to throw in your pocket???
I cant wait to get my hands on this one! I already own a GX100, and even though is slow as a turtle in RAW mode, the flash sucks and noice over 400 ASA is terrible, its still one of my favorite cameras. Why? Its small, well buildt and a compact with a 24 mm lense is a real gemstone in all the rubble you find out there. I already had a Canon G9 when I got the GX 100. Its been collecting dust ever since. The G9 its a nice camera, but the access to manual controls in the Ricoh is ultra fast. I carry the GX 100 around my neck like a real tourist, and exposure control with the small multi function button is working like a charm, a detail I really enjoy when I use it walking the streets. The only thing thats really bugging me is the terrible delay between shots in RAW mode. Its seems the GX200 has solved that problem really well. I huge nice chip would have been really nice, but this little baby on 400 asa will solve most of my problems, anyway.
I'm specifically interested in a camera that can shoot in square format, and the GX-200 (and GX-100) are the only cameras I've found that can do that.
Does anyone know of another digital camera that shoots square format?
Also, do the electronic and viewscreen on the GX-200 display a square image, or simply provide dotted crop-lines or something like that on a full screen image?
sedentary_male said on 25th June 2008
The 1st curtain flash is on the start of the release time of the shutter, the 2nd curtain flash is on the end of the (long) release time: so on the second curtain flash there is first a movement bij the available light before the flash goes off.
Having looked at a number of reviews of high end compacts the GX200 seems to tick all the boxes as far as I'm concerned. I agree with the comments about pixel cramming and wonder when the technicians will start to win the battle with the marketing departments.
One thing I don't understand about all digital camera reviews is the obsession with high iso performance. In over 40 years of film photography I can count on the fingers of one hand the times I bought film with a speed greater than 200. When I did I accepted the inevitable increase in grain as a reasonable trade off.

MILWAUKEE -- Bud Selig joined the crowd that came out to watch Barry Bonds. All the commissioner saw was a long fly and an 0-for-4.
Bonds went hitless and stayed put at 753 home runs in the San Francisco Giants' 8-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night, moving no closer to the record 755 held by Selig's good friend, Hank Aaron.
Bonds started the series opener in the city where Hammerin' Hank began and ended his career -- and on the 31st anniversary of Aaron's final home run, no less. He hit No. 755 on July 20, 1976, at now-demolished County Stadium.
The Giants were able to win without a big hit from Bonds.
"Any time you have a hitter in the lineup like Barry, you've got to be careful," Brewers starting pitcher Jeff Suppan said. "And you try to stay away from damage. Basically, they were able to manufacture some runs and drive in some runs."
Bonds grounded out, popped out, flied out and struck out. He also walked, and his Giants ended an eight-game losing streak in Milwaukee dating to May 4, 2006. The San Francisco star was booed lustily by the sellout crowd each time he stepped into the batter's box, but the camera flashes lit up the ballpark on a cool night in Brew City.
The closest he came to a homer was a deep drive to center that was caught in the seventh.
Afterward, Bonds had a team spokesman tell the huge crowd of reporters gathered around his locker that he wasn't talking and everybody should go "talk to his teammates."
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he would chat with Bonds before Saturday's afternoon game and decide then whether Bonds will start.
Guillermo Rodriguez hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the seventh for San Francisco, which rallied with three straight walks against Carlos Villanueva (6-2) to win for only the second time in nine games. Rodriguez also had an RBI single in the fourth, and all six of his major league hits have come with runners in scoring position.
"I just try to concentrate more when I've got runners in scoring position," said Rodriguez, involved in a hard fifth-inning collision at the plate with Rickie Weeks. "That's huge in this game."
Noah Lowry (10-7) allowed five hits and four runs in six innings, winning for the fourth time in five starts. Randy Messenger pitched two scoreless innings of relief, then Steve Kline and Brad Hennessey finished up.
While Selig had an easy time getting to the stadium in his home city, he remained noncommittal about whether he will attend games elsewhere -- like back in San Francisco next week -- when Bonds moves closer to Aaron's mark. Selig said he did not speak to Bonds.
"But as far as I'm concerned, you have to use what I call common sense," Selig said. "I thought he's playing here, a game important in the pennant race and I'm here. I'm glad to be here. And I'll be back tomorrow and Sunday."
Bonds, who turns 43 on Tuesday, connected twice Thursday against the Chicago Cubs in a 9-8 loss at Wrigley Field.
A night later, he grounded out to second on the second pitch he saw in the first inning, walked on eight pitches in the third for his 96th free pass, popped out to second in the fifth and flied out to deep center in the seventh. He was called out on strikes in the eighth, and the fans at Miller Park cheered in delight.
Suppan's winless stretch reached five starts for the NL Central-leading Brewers, whose defeat allowed the Cubs to move within 2 1/2 games in the division race. Chicago beat Arizona 6-2 at home, cutting Milwaukee's lead to its slimmest margin since April 28.
"We don't control what they do," Prince Fielder said. "I don't think anybody's paying attention to the Cubs."
After Bonds popped out in the fifth, he returned to the dugout to discuss things with hitting coach Joe Lefebvre. Bonds credited Lefebvre for his film work and helping the slugger get things "corrected" this week. On Thursday, Bonds ended an 0-for-21 slump, his worst in six years since he set the single-season home run record in 2001 with 73.
"Barry has a lot of pride," Bochy said. "He works out every day. He wasn't happy with the way he was hitting."
The last-place Giants are in a tough spot: excited about Bonds' quest but also ready for it to end considering their recent struggles and all the added attention.
"I want to see it -- soon," Giants third baseman Pedro Feliz said, "in a winning streak."
The Brewers said a fan tried to climb on top of the Giants' dugout in the eighth inning and was removed by security.
- Omar Vizquel played his 2,511th game at shortstop, tying Ozzie Smith for second on the career list behind Venezuelan countryman Luis Aparicio (2,583). "Sometimes it's hard to play a lot of games like that," said Vizquel, an 11-time Gold Glover. "That's the way I grew up: be out there as many games as I can. No excuses."
- San Francisco's Dave Roberts doubled among his three hits and stole his 18th base.
- LHP Manny Parra made his major league debut for Milwaukee in the eighth.
- Corey Hart snapped an 0-for-11 streak with a leadoff triple in the first for the Brewers, then Weeks ended a funk of the same length with a single to start the fifth.

The last option to MODIFY a table is the ability to rename the table. Like other modifications this requires FOREIGN KEY constraints to be removed prior to the action. After this has been done any constraints can be reapplied and the database will have no performance changes. However, it is important to understand that changing a table name will affect anything that references the old name. This can be a problem if the table is used often and should not be done without great care and consideration.

Makes 12 servings
A rich, velvety flan is paired with a subtle caramel sauce in this Mexican-inspired dessert. If you'd rather make one large flan, use an 8-inch round cake pan and bake it about 10 minutes longer.
For the Dulce de Leche cream:
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup heavy cream
For the caramel:
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup water
For the flan:
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1-1/2 ounces Mexican chocolate, such as Ibarra, finely chopped
1-1/2 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
5 large eggs
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon Crème de Cocoa, (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter 12 (4-ounce) ramekins and put them in a large baking dish.
To prepare the Dulce de Leche Cream, in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring the milk to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add sugar and baking soda. Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring frequently, until milk becomes thick and resembles a light caramel sauce. Remove from heat and cool completely. In the bowl of an electric mixer with the whisk attachment, beat heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold milk mixture into cream and refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
To prepare the caramel, in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, just until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to high and cook without stirring until mixture turns light brown. Remove from heat. Carefully pour hot caramel into ramekins, dividing it evenly. Set aside.
To prepare the flan, combine the chocolates in a large bowl and set aside. In a microwave, heat milk until almost boiling, about 2 minutes; add espresso powder and stir until dissolved. Pour mixture over the chocolate. Allow to sit for 1 minute. Whisk until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until well blended. Gradually whisk in the chocolate mixture, Crème de Cocoa, if desired, and vanilla. Divide mixture evenly among the ramekins.
Pour hot water into the baking dish so that it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake flans in the water bath until centers are just set, about 35 to 45 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the ramekins and turn them out immediately onto dessert plates. If they resist, dip them in very hot water for about 30 seconds. Serve with Dulce de Leche Cream on the side.

Good shop somewhere around ND?
Ok, so I engine swapped my '03 wrx with a cobb sti engine with cams, headers, blah blah. Anyway, now that it's all back together, it won't take the new base map, won't start, the fuel pump sounds jacked, the gas gauge is readin empty even though there's like 7 gallons in it, and the clutch isn't working.
I feel like I've hit a brick wall with this thing want to take it somewhere to get it fixed/running/tuned. Does anyone know of a reputable shop I could take it to? I'm guessing the closest to me would either be Minneapolis or something in South Dakota or maybe Denver or something.
Oh, I'm in Minot, ND by the way. So canada might be a possibility, but I try not to go there much.
I'm just wondering if someone might personally (or by even just by reputation) know of a specific shop to take it to.
There's a really good shop here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota if you're willing to bring your car down here, it's called Excessive Autosports (605) 332-0000. Ask for Joey.
there's a shop in the twin cities I like but that's a haul for you. Not sure where you are in the state.
EDIT: Google says you are about 7.5 hours NW of it. They're right off of 52 though which is just a long freeway haul I guess ;)
thanks for the input. but i'm gonna try to take it somewhere in town to just get to run, even if it runs crappy, as hopefully that will help it sell better. I need to get rid of this car, tired of not having money. haha

The inevitable call by the left to shut down nuclear power in the wake of Japan's quake
posted at 11:36 am on March 14, 2011 by Bruce McQuain
Of course anyone who is a student of politics knew this was coming. The anti-nuclear crowd, mostly found on the left, couldn't wait to politicize the earthquake disaster in Japan and call for a moratorium on nuclear power plant construction.
Not that we've had a single nuclear power plant constructed here in the US for decades. But this is a call to kill any nascent plans for building any new plants. Right on schedule the expected reaction attempts to build public opinion against nuclear power by invoking "scare" rhetoric. The culprit is Rep. Edward Markey (D-MA):
"I am shocked by the devastation that has already been caused by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. It is heart-breaking to see the destruction that has already taken place, and to hear of so many people being killed or injured," said Rep. Markey. "As a result of this disaster, the world is now facing the looming threat of a possible nuclear meltdown at one of the damaged Japanese nuclear reactors. I hope and pray that Japanese experts can successfully bring these reactors under control and avert a Chernobyl-style disaster that could release large amounts of radioactive materials into the environment.""I am also struck by the fact that the tragic events now unfolding in Japan could very easily occur in the United States. What is happening in Japan right now shows that a severe accident at a nuclear power plant can happen here," said Rep. Markey.
No Rep. Markey, they couldn't "very easily … happen here". And while it is obvious the 8.9 quake that hit Japan has severely damaged the Japanese nuclear power plants, it isn't at all clear that they won't be able to contain the damage or that a similar accident is bound to happen here.
The Heritage Foundation lays out a few of the salient facts
* The low levels of radiation currently being released will likely have no biological or environmental impact. Humans are constantly exposed to background radiation that likely exceeds that being released.
* The Chernobyl disaster was caused by an inherent design problem and communist operator error that is not present at any of the nuclear plants in Japan.
* There were no health impacts from any of the radiation exposure at Three Mile Island.
* The Nuclear Regulatory Commission does not need to regulate more in response to this. It already regulates enough.
* The plant in trouble in Japan is over 40 years old. Today's designs are far more advanced. * No one has ever been injured, much less killed, as a result of commercial nuclear power in the U.S.
Obviously those represent the facts at this time when talking about the Japanese reactors and could change. However the other facts stand. Chernobyl was the nuclear industry's Deep Horizon. A one-off occurrence that the Chicken Little's of this world, coupled with other anti-nuclear groups, have used for years to oppose the expansion of nuclear generated power. And they plan on trying to add Japan's troubles to the litany of opposition.
As you might expect, Markey has proposed – wait for it – a moratorium on siting "new nuclear reactors in seismically active areas". Any guess who will get to define "seismically active area"? We have earthquakes everywhere in this country with most of them being so minor they're not even felt. Does that qualify for a "seismically active area"?
Let's not forget that this earthquake Japan suffered along with the resultant tsunami was massive and extremely rare. In fact, it is the largest earthquake in Japan's recorded history. The largest earthquake recorded in American history occurred in 1964 off Prince William sound in Alaska coming in at 9.2. Below, on the map, are the top 15 earthquakes recorded in the US since 1872 (7.3 or above). The year they occurred is by the marker. As you can see they're mostly centered in California with a few here and there in other areas of the US. South Carolina, for instance, hasn't see a quake of that size since 1886 – over 100 years. Missouri not since 1812:
Let's also not forget that Japan has suffered 275 aftershocks of 5 point or greater. In fact, since the quake, Japan is averaging 12 to 15 aftershocks per hour. That too hampers rescue and recovery efforts as well as the efforts to contain the damage at the nuclear sites.
To give you an appreciation of the magnitude of difference between the numbers on the Richter scale measurement of an earthquake, a "5" equals about 474 metric tons of TNT exploding. A "6" is 15 kilotons. A "7" is 474 kilotons. An "8" equals 15 megatons. And an 8.9 is approximately 356 megatons. The "Tsar Bomba", the largest thermonuclear weapon ever tested, was a 50 megaton device coming in at 8.35 on the Richter scale.
That gives you an idea of the power of the Japanese quake.
Does anyone anticipate that in the vast majority of the continental US? Of course not. Is there a history of those sorts of quakes. Again, for the vast majority of the country, the answer is "no." For Japan the answer is quite different. The islands lay on the "Pacific rim of fire", one of the most earthquake and volcano prone areas in the world.
But that won't stop the scare mongers from trying to gin up a movement to not just place a moratorium on "seismically active areas", but eventually to all areas of the country.
"Seismically safe" will become the new watchword for the anti-nuke crowd. And I predict that regardless of the design, they'll find all of them to be wanting.
"The unfolding disaster in Japan must produce a seismic shift in how we address nuclear safety here in America," said Rep. Markey.
No, it shouldn't. And we shouldn't let alarmists like Markey steal a step on nuclear energy. We have the means and the technology to provide safe nuclear power generation. It should proceed with an obvious eye on the safety of such plants. But we do not need to let the scare mongers use this lifeboat incident, this outlier scenario, as a means of slowing or stopping our move to more nuclear powered energy.
We ought to be saying, "split, baby, split". Split here and split now.

I got a headache watching that...
I got a headache watching that...
I don't see a problem with them two fighting eachother as it just looked like an interclub after 2-4weeks training. But if they are seriously considering the possibility of putting that guy who won in with the likes of Mo Kargbo with the intention of a proper fight then this seems like a potenitally dangerous idea..
** NEWS FLASH ** - Sam Gale 'Force' takes on Richard 'Day' Walker in the next round on 22nd June at Exile Gym.
Those most unwarranted use of the term newsflash that I think I've ever seen
16-bit for life http://findingdyluck.blogspot.co.uk/
this shit has gone way to far now. Makes me sick how much media attention its getting. Saw a picture of some paper down south with a full page feature on Tyrone. The news heading was "mixed martial arts". Of course its a troll job but they are trolling our sport now and if Gale gets in with somebody like Walker there is a big chance somebody will get seriously hurt
So is this real or not really do hope not as its going to make are sport look so bad even more so now its in a news paper.
the bullshit stops when the cage door locks!!! @prosystemsmma @Ryanwhitemma
Hahhahahaha just watched that its brilliant.... epic troll job im right behind it now ha ha!
This can't be legit, how do these guys keep a straight face

Business Rules Technology Belongs In Your Architecture

Those are words you don't want to hear when playing chess. Similarly, you don't want to be checkmated in the rough and tumble of the business real world.
To win at chess and in business to you have to make smart decisions constantly and consistently - decisions that are guided by a carefully crafted strategy designed to checkmate your opponent or, at a minimum, to stay in the game. Deciding what moves to make in chess is hard enough even though it is just you and your opponent. The decisions businesses have to make everyday can be much more complicated and the stakes are much higher.
Where Is Your Decision Logic Implemented?
Most firms embedd them deep within its application code far from the businesspeople who understand the business rules best. That might be OK for business rules that do not change frequently. But, for business rules that change frequently or need that need to change quickly, there is a better way. Forrester has identified business rules technology as one of the Top 15 Technology Trends Enterprise Architects Should Watch and one of the 5 key changes app dev shops should make in 2010 (attend or replay the free Webinar Live: Tuesday, October 20, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time).
Avoid Checkmate. Include Business Rules Technology In Your Architecture
Business rules platforms (often called decision management) allow decision logic to be authored and executed external to you application. The result is better management and faster change of your business rules because:
- The business rules are not embedded deep in application code such as Cobol, .NET, or Java code that only a programmer can change.
- Business rules are executed consistently across all applications that need them because they are implemented once and shared for all applications that need the.
- Businesspeople who understand the business rules can author and maintain the rules directly instead of explaining the rules to programmers who then have to code them in a programming language.
The result for your business: faster change and consistent decisions.

Comment from Max Pucher on Thu, 10/22/2009 - 01:54
Mike, I too see that business decision logic is an important asset. It is more important than BPM.The core problem is managing lifecycle and deployment of business services developed or maintained by business users. Business decisions can not be looked at independently in my mind. The starting point has to be an enterprise-wide repository that deploys services into production and that must include rules!Business decisions are what I refer to as boundary rules. Business services should be performed freely without limitation of a step-by-step process. Maybe 20% of those can be simply expressed as stable process flows. A huge rule set that will execute sensibly and performant each time some business user wants to act or each time some business event happens is an illusion. Yes, it could be defined but who would be able to maintain it with its relationships?All business services have to work with business entities and interface with other application services, SOA or not. Business service boundary rule logic too executes against business entities and has to call some business application. All of that has to be managed and made available to the business user. A standalone business decision system will simply do that? Not before I will retire ...

Don't just come back. Come back better. It won't be easy.
As the Wildcats prepare to embark on their Big Blue Bahamas exhibition trip this weekend, it sounds like that challenge was accepted.
"Well, the conversation we had was, if you put your name in the draft, I'm going to do everything I can to get you drafted in the best position possible," Calipari said Wednesday prior to one of 10 practices the NCAA permits for teams participating in a foreign exhibition tour every four years.
"And if you come back, there's questions that you have to answer… And they went 'One, two, three,' and I said 'OK, then you've got to answer those questions,' and that's what we're going to do. You're not coming back here just because it's easiest. It might be the hardest thing for you to do.'"
Asked what those questions were, Calipari initially declined to get into specifics – "Those were between us sitting in that room" – but later revealed more of what he expected from the twins.
One had to do with their bodies. The other, largely, their body language.
"They've lost weight, so they're more athletic, they're playing faster, they're able to sustain," Calipari said. "The other thing is they already know what we're trying to do. There's no anxiety. They're comfortable out on the court, where last year they were trying to figure themselves out, and that's why you had that body language.
"So you don't see any of that this year, and the only time they do anything like that is toward each other, like saying something to each other. Short of that, it's been pretty good."
The twins had a nice freshman campaign, statistically, averaging a combined 24.6 points per game in helping lead the Cats to the national championship game. But there were bumps – and hefty doses of criticism from all angles – along the way. Scouts informed them that they needed to be much better on the defensive end of the floor if they ever wanted to fulfill their professional dreams.
The Harrisons played last season in the 220-pound range. They're both in the neighborhood of 210 now, and by all accounts, much quicker and explosive.
"Just trying to be the best player I can be," Andrew Harrison said. "I feel a lot faster, a lot quicker, jump a little higher now. I feel like I'm the best player I can be right now."
Aaron Harrison says it's not just the physical aspect of the game he's been working on.
"You just have to be mentally ready to practice each and every day," he said. "You just go in and get better. That comes with getting older and being mature and just taking it more serious."
When you're Everybody's All-American coming out of high school, it can be difficult to realize how difficult the transition to the college game can be. That's something the twins both underestimated.
Now, with a different outlook, UK fans may see more of the swagger they expected early on last season, but may have taken until the end of the season to arrive.
"I think it was just us realizing how much work it actually takes to be great," Andrew Harrison said. "Just realizing or just getting that confidence you had back in high school, just feeling like you're the best player. That's what it really was."

I recently bought this cap in white. I've worn it a couple times for outdoor running and it already has some discolored splotches, probably from sweat or hair product or both. I want to get it clean without ruining the bill or compromising the sweat-wicking ability of the fabric. Any ideas? TIA!

I would write to the company through their website to see what they recommend. Also, once you get it clean, scotchguard is amazing to keep it from staining again.
tashabear on July 10th, 2012 02:34 pm (UTC)
The product page you linked to says to hand wash. I'd use shampoo; it's great for those sorts of stains.

Ohhh that's an awesome idea, thanks!!

I've heard the dishwasher is the safest bet if you don't want to handwash. It won't ruin the shape of the hat either.

Colin Powell is a decent man who only wanted to serve his country. His reward was to be insulted and humiliated by the Bush administration including forced to make a speech that was a pack of lies. It has taken time, but Colin Powell is finally finding his voice and speaking out publicly about erroneous policies.
He was the author of the famous "don't ask, don't speak" policy which allowed gays to serve as long as everyone pretended they did not exist. Now, Powell, is rethinking his original concept and stating the need to change the policy because American society is much ahead of the military in being receptive to gay rights. It takes some courage to admit one had an idea that made little sense. It also is refreshing to discover General Powell is dead set against the Guantanamo Bay prisons and insists they be dismantled and prisoners tried in the American justice system. I am certain Fox News and Ann Coulter will shortly be declaring Powell a friend of terrorists.

Peregrine dropped Andersen in early April, attributing the change to "current uncertainties" about Andersen in the wake of the Enron debacle.
Not long after, Peregrine was enmeshed in an accounting tangle of its own, where revenue of up to $100m may have been improperly booked during the financial years 2001 and 2002. Peregrine's chief executive officer and chief financial officer resigned, spurring investigations by both the SEC and Peregrine's audit committee.
KMPG had begun the internal investigation, which will now be conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers, Peregrine announced.
Last week, the company extended the time frame during which it believed accounting improprieties occurred, announcing plans to restate its financial results for 2000, 2001 and the first three-quarters of its 2002 financial year.
The contested revenue relates to transactions recorded as revenue from Peregrine's indirect channels that may have been written off in later quarters, according to the company.
The conflict with KPMG stems from past business dealings between Peregrine, KPMG and KPMG Consulting, a now-independent spin-off from KPMG that went public in 2001.
"KPMG informed Peregrine that approximately $35m of the questionable [$100m] transactions were with KPMG and KPMG Consulting," Peregrine said in a statement. Peregrine officials declined to elaborate on how the $35m was generated. The company offered no comment beyond its press release.
Peregrine said that it believed its dealings with KPMG and KPMG Consulting compromise SEC rules regarding auditor independence.
A search for new independent auditors is under way.

Judge denies request to stop Common Core
A judge denied a request for a temporary injunction to stop Common Core from being used in Louisiana classrooms while a lawsuit is heard against the state's school board.
Judge Tim Kelley denied the request by attorneys for 17 lawmakers who filed the suit, which claims the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education broke state law in its implementation of Common Core.
The decision means schools can continue with plans that have been in the works for the past four years to use the standards, which were developed by a group of states in order to compare student progress in different parts of the country. Schools are still in limbo about what test to use, since Governor Bobby Jindal took executive action to block the state's contract with the PARCC test.
The governor's recent objections to Common Core come after years of support for the measure, and have turned into a political struggle for who controls the course of education in Louisiana.

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a guide for removing a broken Hood Latch. I would just pop my hood and take a look to see if I could figure out how to take it out so I can replace it. Problem is once I pop my hood I won't be able to get it back down again, so if I am missing a tool or something I need I won't be able to just run to the store and grab what I need.
My plan is to go to a junk yard and grab a hood latch out of one out of there and again I don't want to get there and find out I don't have the right tool and spend half the day running around grabbing collecting everything I need.

Error in FractionalPart?
Dear all,
I have a little issue while fullsimplifying an apparently simple expression.
After defining the functions
F[x_] := 2 \[Pi] FractionalPart[x/(2 \[Pi])]
H[x_] := 2 \[Pi] FractionalPart[-x/(2 \[Pi])] + 2 \[Pi]
I plot the function (F[x]^2)(H[x]^2) between 0 and 4pi and i get
something like a double 'gaussian' bell (it's not gaussian, it is just
to picture it).
Then I enter
and I get as a result
16 \[Pi]^4 FractionalPart[x/(2 \[Pi])]^4
which when plotted does not give the same plot, actually it's very different.
What am I (or is mathematica) doing wrong?
Thank you in advance,

Great story. Mason Adams and Marian Seldes are two of my favorite voices in the series.
"The money will help you forget." That phrase uttered to Bill Sperling from his attorney after his wife is slain and he is the soul beneficiary to her fortune. This episode was fantastically done; the actors and writing was superb. It was also thought provoking. Can money heal wounds? I often think so. But this episode went a bit further in questioning, "Can a grand act of charity bring happiness?" 4 stars.
Davy Joe
A man's mistress wants him to murder his wife before the wife changes her will and leaves him out of the money. This betrayal is complicated by the fact that the wife has been accepting advice from a strange doctor. The plot thickens with several twists and turns.
A man contemplates murdering his sickly wife so that he and his mistress can live off the wife's millions. Does he have the nerve to go through with it...or will someone else beat him to the punch? This is a good story with several nice twists and turns. Genre: Suspense
Kenny Kramer III
A man and his lover discuss the waning health of his critically ill wife knowing that they can never really be together as long as she is alive. They also know that without her money, their existence together would be penniless. Though she is receiving treatment from doctors, there is no expectation that she will ever recover. She resorts to more outlandish treatments and finds a 'doctor' who uses hypnosis not only to bring health to her, but also her wealth to him. Through hypnosis he has her change her will to make him beneficiary. When the husband finds out, he is furious and seeks to implement his plan before the will can be changed. But watch out for twists in the road, and his underlying sense of right and wrong.
Louie Kraft
He should have still gone to jail. He did "attempt" to kill her and, if it wasn't for the glass near her bed, she would still be alive. He provided the means to kill her. In my book that's premeditated murder. Of course he could have blamed it all on the quack doctor. Not a believable ending. So he decided at the very last second to let her live because he wasn't cut out of the will, big deal. Next time, throw out the milk if you really mean it!!
I thought this episode was pretty good and had a morally decayed person start realizing that they were morally decayed. I would have to listen to it again to confirm, but in relation to Nicole's comment above I thought that he had "accidentally" spilled the drink he was going to give her, so he didn't leave it out. Although his plan to kill her was provided to the doctor via his fickle mistress, I don't think that would necessarily make him an accessory to murder. Perhaps I need to study law to find out for sure.
