BRENDAN TREMBATH: It's been nearly five days since the military regime of Fiji lifted emergency powers which banned public meetings and censored the media, but critics say new laws are even more repressive. A public order decree gives security forces the power to use weapons to break up meetings.

Vonivate Driu - FDFM Australia
VON DRIU: If in the future Bainimarama has a party that will go for the 2014 election, they will be the ones who will be promoted under the public order decree and not the opposition.
SIMON LAUDER: What do you think will happen to the opposition?
VON DRIU: People who talk in opposition with the current regime, they are being silenced.
SIMON LAUDER: Australia's Foreign Minister, Kevin Rudd, says he won't consider lifting targeted sanctions on members of the Bainimarama regime until there is real change in Fiji.

51 Ford Suspension -tubular a-arms?
Has anyone ever seen or made tubular control arms (upper and lower) for 49-51 ford? been thinking about it instead of doing a front clip job. If I were to carry out this task of building it in kit form > (a-arms, bushings, conversion for rack/pinion steering, etc) would anyone be interested in such?
Most rodders just clip or Mustang II them.
I have used JAMCo before and was happy with the results..
If you don't want to go to the trouble of an MII suspension, Speedway makes disc brake conversions for the early Ford IFS (www.speedwaymotors.com), I think. Check their catalog on-line.
I don't think anyone makes tubular arms for these. As Deuce said, most people switch to a MII system if they want to dress up the suspension.
The suspension doesn't really show. As long as the stock suspension is in good condition rebuilding it will restore ride, and a disc brake conversion will improve stopping. Even if a kit isn't made it's not to difficult to install a rack and pinions steering to these cars -- the steering arms bolt off. Sometimes you need shorter arms to get the correct turning radius when switching to rack and pinion, the bolt off arms makes it easy to construct your own at the length you need. It's not hard to make a sway bar fit either, but will take some searching to find the bar that fits best.
MII setups are popular because they are relatively easy to swap in once you have the cross member figured out. Then you can get a large variety of parts easily and relatively cheaply because of the popularity. It's not necessarily BETTER. Price and popularity go hand in hand because of the number of parts sold. In many cases the double wishbone suspension being pulled out is actually better than the MII going in, but if you can't get the parts you want for the older suspension it's a moot point.
rack it up...
Mustang II front end are cool... but our of my price range right now- money no object= it'd be done! But, I figured the same as you Farna; a rack conversion can't be too difficult.
I figure the car might benefit from adujustable tubular arms (improved unsprung weight and strength + some adjustablility). I think the the king pin front is way cool due to its strength over ball joints- seems to last as well.
Which would be better- rack on the front .. or rear of crossmember? I was thinking... reversing the hub mounted steering arms .. and inverting them to opposing sides- so the point forward ( if possible (have not taken apart yet))
then, mounting rack on front.
I want to put a tilt column in it .. and want to get the steering wheel away from my face- its like a 8-10inches from the dash. - thinking i can raise the hole in the fire wall(making new one anyway)... and shove a new column through ,.. reaching closer to the cross member - and joint it to the rack. therefore decreasing the angle that column points upward.
whichever way, What do you all suggest here? been trying to see what others have done.. but haven't found much. Not sure what length i'd need either.
the bushings are worn out on my car.. but i have not driven it yet due to the guy before me thinking it needed to be painted before fixing the 'flintstone' floor. .. and what a crappy paint job it is--
Anyway, on the front he air bagged it (dont mind) - in doing so he cut the top frame spring pockets.. and welded some home made shock brackets really poorly on... straight down the side of the frame.. so i hae to fix that too.
the car already has some sort of disc brake conversion- not sure what it is > single piston caliper hanging on front of disc - caliper bracket bolts interfere with brake line fitting, so the lines are all pinched?
the car is a mess really.. but i am excited about it and trying to get things done.
Doesn't matter if it's front or rear steer really. Where do you have room to mount the rack? Most front drive cars use rear steer (rack mounted high on firewall and steering arms high on the struts). For a front steer rack go to Ford Fox bodies, T-birds, and Aerostar van. You can use a tilt column from just about anything, you just have to devise your own mounts. I have an S-10 Blazer tilt column in my Rambler coupled to a 90 or so T-bird power rack and pinion.
Make sure you measure the original steering arms from your donor vehicle. You want the ones on your car to be close to the same length from center of pivot line to the tie rod end so you'll have a similar turning radius. Longer arms means less turning radius, shorter ones will turn much sharper (but don't over do it!). Because racks only move so far, the arms on R&P cars are usually much shorter than box type steering arms.
One more thing -- you need to have the Ackerman angle correct. That will also affect whether you want front or rear steer (usually best to keep it as original). In a nutshell, the Ackerman angle is measured from the center or the rear axle through the pivot point, in this case the center of the king pin. Before you take everything apart get a piece of string and fasten it to the center of the diff near the bottom. Now stretch that string to the front of the car through the center of the kiing pin. The tie rod end should be along that line. It may be a little off since your string is fastened 5-6" below the axle centerline. Try stretching to the tie rod end if it's off much. Your new arms need to have the tie rod ends along the same line. If not, left and right wheels won't turn at different but following angles. when going around a curve, the inside wheel needs to turn roughly 2 degrees sharper than the outside wheel (depending on wheelbase and width of vehicle). The inside wheel is making a smaller circle than the outside.

RT RUSSIA LIVE: China's central bank injected money into the financial system for the first time since February, calming concerns that June's cash squeeze will be repeated at the end of July.
"There is nothing to worry about. 7.5% is still a healthy growth and is actually designed by the government to reduce the overrated economy and the secret now lies in domestic consumption," Thorsten Pattberg, a research fellow at Peking University, told RT.

Pattberg with famed journalist Frank Ching in Beijing, July 2013
Certainly one of the most thought-provoking and entertaining talks I've heard at Peking University this year, also because it wasn't the usual propaganda work (the speaker is ethnic Chinese, but a naturalized American citizen). Frank Ching, famed journalist [Wall Street Journal, New York Times, the list is long] talked about Chinese nationalism, nationality, and the identity crisis of overseas Chinese. [The event took place in a little classroom, not one of the halls, letting alone one of the big auditoriums.] There are so many brilliant observations in his talk (read the transcript here), and the one that resonates best with my experience was the fact that China officially holds onto "all descendants of its people who emigrated overseas and claims them as its own." This, of course, makes all ethnic Chinese in the US potential spies, and most of the people of Singapore "foreigners in their own country." Chilling.

At Beijing Sihai Confucius Academy
|Visiting Beijing Sihai Confucius Academy (from left to right:) Pei Songxian, Feng Zhe, Thorsten Pattberg
Visit to Sihai Confucius Academy in Beijing (June 17, 2013). This academy is a private school that caters for children age 3-13 to learn Chinese classics, and to become experts and practitioners of Chinese culture. The student teacher ratio is 150 to 40, and 20 support staff. The curriculum heavily favors both Chinese and Western classics. Children board Monday to Friday at the academy and return home for the weekends.
The academy lies in the suburbs of Beijing on a mountain slide with forests, gardens, and beautiful mansions with clean and tidy halls, classrooms, playgrounds and student dormitories. Sihai Confucius Academy has successfully established itself as a brand, with its own farm product, a vegetarian restaurant chain, the Ertong education project, etc.
Moreover, Sihai Confucius Academy receives regular media attention from home and abroad, hosts conferences, and publishes its own teaching materials, built from scratch its classical library, offers outdoor programs, organic farming, music classes, and is supported from famous Confucian scholars like Gu Zhengkun, Wang Caigui, Wang Dianqing, Guo Qijia, Roger Ames, He Guangrong, Ling Zi, and Tu Weiming. The list goes on.
And yes, the students here learn to recite the Dao De Jing, for example. Sometimes at the age of three. Really. [SEE WEIBO BLOG] [BACK TO MAIN]

German Confucianism at Peking University

Three key measures will give huge tax breaks to holding companies - parent firms with subsidiary companies - to acquisitive businesses and to firms that run share option schemes.
The Treasury is also thought likely to compromise on the sensitive issue of ending the tax-free status of about 700,000 wealthy 'non-domiciled' foreign nationals living in Britain.
All this could stoke further trouble with the unions on top of last week's attack by TUC chief John Monks, who accused the Government of undermining workers' rights in Europe.
Financial Mail understands that three measures will provide valuable tax breaks for large-scale businesses.
First, Brown plans to extend the tax relief currently available only when a business buys machinery or shares from another firm. Relief will be widened to cover intellectual property and goodwill - the 'intangible assets'.
Mike Warburton, tax expert with accountancy firm Grant Thornton, said: 'This benefits acquisitive businesses, who will, from now on, structure their takeovers in such a way as to buy assets instead of the firms' goods.
'By doing that, they will get a 30% tax discount.'
Second, Brown will allow UK holding companies to sell subsidiary businesses, either here or abroad, without paying tax on profits from the sale.
Third, Brown will let businesses claim tax relief if they offer discounts to employees in share option schemes.
On non-domiciled residents, the Treasury has confirmed that it is reexamining their tax-free status. Many in the Labour Party would like to see them taxed in full, but Financial Mail understands that the Treasury may opt for an extension of 'non-statutory agreements' with the Inland Revenue, in which individuals pay a flat annual charge of up to £250,000.
Brown may win greater Labour plaudits for what is expected to be a raft of measures to help manufacturers.
Trade Secretary Patricia Hewitt, speaking last week to MPs, hinted at further Budget incentives to encourage capital investment and workforce skills. She said the priority was to build on Britain's 'outstanding science base'. The country had no future in 'low-value commodity manufacturing'.

Higher Education Inc.: The personal and professional dilemmas of environmental educators undertaking research with/for private corporations
Davis, Julie M. & Ferreira, Jo-Anne L. (2006) Higher Education Inc.: The personal and professional dilemmas of environmental educators undertaking research with/for private corporations. Australian Journal of Environmental Education, 22(1), pp. 39-47.
We are living in an era of market-driven, globalised economies characterised by reduced public investments in what, until now, have been considered public goods and services. In Australia and elsewhere, education, and higher education in particular, has seen steady declines in government funding. This has prompted universities to become much more entrepreneurial and to seek out new funding opportunities to support their teaching and research activities. This paper reflects on the personal and professional dilemmas and challenges we faced as two early career environmental education researchers who were commissioned to undertake research for a private corporation. As a result of issues raised during this process, we engaged in a critical reflection of our perceptions and feelings about our involvement in the project. In essence, dilemmas and challenges centred around two issues: (1) control/ ownership of the research; and (2) the clash between corporate and university values. This paper explores these issues and suggests that greater mindfulness on the part of individual researchers as well as the development of better university-corporate partnership processes and protocols might provide useful starting points for overcoming such dilemmas and for moving forward with university-corporate research partnerships.

Somehow, Kentucky survived.
The Southeastern Conference opener for both teams began as a laugher but turned into a nail-biter before the Wildcats survived, 60-58, Thursday before 14,316 fans Memorial Gymnasium.
Vanderbilt's Kedren Johnson launched an open 3-pointer at the buzzer that would have knocked out Kentucky, but the ball bounced away harmlessly. UK breathed a sigh of relief.
"We were lucky to win the game," UK coach John Calipari said.
Inside dominance sparked Kentucky (10-4) to a 16-point lead, but for the Wildcats, it was fool's gold.
Vanderbilt (6-7), the same team which scored 33 points in a November loss to Marist, came alive and ripped off an 18-0 run, taking a 49-47 lead. Memorial Gym was rocking.
The Wildcats weren't sure what hit them.
"All of a sudden, we were down, and I was like, 'Dang,'" Kentucky center Willie Cauley-Stein said.
The Wildcats re-grouped and found a way to rally past the team that upset Kentucky in the championship game of last season's Southeastern Conference Tournament.
Ryan Harrow's 3-pointer put UK ahead, 51-49, with 4:55 remaining. When the Commodores later tied it at 54, Kentucky's Kyle Wiltler swished a jump shot to put the Wildcats back in front, 56-54. Kentucky would not trail again.
Controversy emerged with 18 seconds to go when Kentucky's Nerlens Noel canned a short jumper that appeared to come after the shot clock had expired. Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings protested vehemently, but the basket stood, making it 60-55.
"It was good all the way," Calipari deadpanned.
Johnson's 3-pointer kept Vanderbilt alive at 60-58, and a Kentucky turnover with 6.7 seconds left gave the Commodores one last opportunity. But Johnson's shot went adrift.
"In the second half, they came out more smash-mouth style, and we didn't push back," Cauley-Stein said of Vanderbilt. "We have to change that because every SEC game is going to be like that."
An exasperated UK coach John Calipari reacted to a play in the second half. (USA TODAY Sports Photo by Jim Brown.)
By Calipari's estimation, 14 of Vanderbilt's 24 points in the first half came against Wiltjer's porous defense.
"They went at Kyle every single possession," Calipari said.
Calipari noted that future Kentucky opponents will view tapes of Vanderbilt's attack on Wiltjer, and that Kentucky will have to adjust accordingly.
"There are some things we're going to do," Calipari said.
As for Poythress, who nearly signed with Vanderbilt before choosing Kentucky, his lack of an offensive rebound, while yielding five to Vanderbilt counterpart Shelby Moats, chafed Calipari. The Commodores had 20 offensive boards and won the rebounding battle, 42-37, despite entering the game as the SEC's second-worst rebounding team.
"We got out-rebounded by a team that has been out-rebounded all year," Calipari said. "Who's out-working who?"
Harrow led Kentucky with 16 points, while Noel scored 13 and Archie Goodwin added 12. Johnson tossed in 18 points to lead Vanderbilt and helped jump-start the big second-half run with an assortment of jumpers, slashes to the basket and nifty passes.
Utilizing its superior size, Kentucky sprinted to a 24-12 lead while Vanderbilt made only five of its first 21 shots. The Commodores closed the half with back-to-back 3-pointers by Johnson and Rod Odom to make it 35-24, a surprisingly close margin for how dominant the Wildcats had seemed to open the game.
"They got all their points in the first half right at the rim," Moats said of UK.
UK threatened to deliver a blowout when the lead swelled at 43-27 with 16:27 remaining on a free throw by Goodwin.
That's when Vanderbilt opened its run and forced Kentucky into survival mode.
"It was an ugly win," Harrow said. "At least we got the win."
* Kentucky, the all-time NCAA leader in wins, recorded its 2,100th victory.
* UK now leads the all-time series with Vanderbilt 137-45. The Cats are 54-27 all-time against the Commodores in Nashville
* Noel has at least six rebounds in all 14 games this season and multiple blocked shots and steals in nine games.
* Willie Cauley-Stein set a career high with four assists and matched a career high with four blocked shots.
* UK returns to action on Saturday against Texas A&M at Rupp Arena in the first SEC meeting between the two programs. Tipoff is slated for a 4 p.m. ET.

A puzzling question for many beginning authors, like myself, is this one: Where do I begin my story?
Do I begin in the middle of the action? Do I begin with the backstory of the setting and characters? Or do I begin, unconventionally, at the end, and then proceed to explain everything that lead to this end?
Beginnings are important and that's why authors are always anxious about them. Why? Because we know that beginnings are only a set up. A set up for the end.
As I approach the climax of my novel's first draft, I am reminded of my beginning. I have to remember where I started, what I set up, so that I could follow through with it, so I can tie up all the loose ends, so I can make sense of what I foreshadowed, so I can think about creating closure for my characters, or lack thereof. Like two ends of the same string, the beginning and the end must be tied together, into a knot, in order to finally make a complete circle.
At this point the question no longer is "Where do I begin my story," but rather, "Where did I begin my story?" So…
Where did I begin my story?
That is when I began to wonder (as you have noticed I tend to do). A string of events might sum up a character in novel, but does it really sum up a person–a real live person?
Recently, I realized that I had become trapped by the stories I told about myself. These stories had not allowed me to move forward. The story that said that I was an actor, for instance, delayed me for 3 years to pursue the course that I knew all along in my heart was the right course: to be a writer.
I recently re-read the biography on my "About" page and realized that I was still telling the same story about myself that I had told my readers nearly a year ago. But the stories I told in this bio had passed. What's more, I had moved passed them. The challenging events that lead me to writing this very blog, where no longer essential to who I was.
Although these challenging events led me here, and I am blessed for what they taught me and how much progress I have made because of them, I am truly passed them. With time comes perspective, and now I no longer saw these events as I had once seen them. I realized that I had become a lot stronger and more capable than I was only a year ago.
Keeping those events as part of my story was not doing justice to how far I had arrived and who I had now become. So it was time to shake that Etch-a-sketch completely, and start with a blank grey screen again.
Now it was with my life, and not with my book, that I asked:
Where do I begin my story?
We should not allow ourselves to be trapped by our stories. You know the ones I'm talking about: I was always the poor kid, the bratty kid, the youngest, the oldest, I never win, I always lose, I'm the nerd, I'm the loner, I was never good at that or this, I went through a hard time once, long ago, I had an awful childhood, my teenage years were just terrible, college was the worst, my middle age what a waste, I fell in love, lost him or her, and I was never the same after that, this person I cared for passed away, I lost my faith, or ran away, or I was lost, or this happened and that happened, etc., etc., etc.
I hate to admit this as a writer, because my work is all about telling stories, but it's true that we are all more than the stories we tell people about ourselves. A person is far far more than an amalgamation of anecdotes. A person is a growing, changing organism, far more beautiful in his or her constant transformations than as a static, 2-dimensional reenactment plastered on a museum wall.
We are not our history. We are so much more. History doesn't move, but we move. We must do justice to this constant flux. We must shed all the old stories, to make room for all the brand new ones.
Let us choose more carefully what we say about ourselves. Let us be thoughtful about the stories we tell and cautious about where we chose to begin in the telling of them.
Now, the other night I couldn't sleep. So I decided to pull out one of the books I was reading, and this one happened to be Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. While I was reading, I landed on this quote, which although it is widely popular, I never quite understood until now:
" 'Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?' (said Alice)
'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the (Chesire) Cat.
'I don't much care where–' said Alice.
'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.
'–so long as I get somewhere,' Alice added in explanation.
'Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, 'if you only walk long enough.' "
Can we give up the stories we tell about ourselves? The ones that say I am the one who battles with depression, or the one who can never catch a break, who never has the confidence, who always finds it hard making friends, or who is always the victim?
I think that not only can we get past these stories, but that we must get past them.
You see, as long as we don't care much where we end up in life, and are content with just ending up somewhere, then maybe, the Chesire Cat is right: it doesn't matter in which direction we choose to go, or where we choose to start, because in the end, we will always end up at that somewhere. All we need to do is travel "long enough" and we will arrive there.
So, where do I begin my story?
You might still be asking. Well, the answer is simple, even if it isn't clear:
You may begin wherever you like.

Exhaustive testing: Part of PSA Peugeot Citroen's real-world fuel consumption study involved the installation of portable emissions measurement systems on test vehicles.
4 March 2016
By HAITHAM RAZAGUI
FRENCH car conglomerate PSA Peugeot Citroen has become the first automotive
manufacturer to publish real-world fuel consumption data for its products as
the European Union gears up to introduce a Real Driving Emissions (RDE) test
cycle as a more accurate replacement for laboratory based testing.
During this week's Geneva motor show, PSA revealed real-world results for three
of its most popular models – which were on average 44 per cent higher than
official figures based on the New European Driving Cycle – and announced plans
to release figures for a total of 30 vehicles by mid-year.
In conjunction with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) Transport &
Environment and France Nature Environment, PSA developed a test protocol based
on EU RDE measurement methods and encompassing real-life driving conditions
such as passenger and luggage loads and air-conditioning use.
A public road circuit near Paris was used, comprising 25.5 kilometres of urban,
39.7km of extra-urban and 31.1km of motorway driving, while independent auditor
Bureau Veritas was engaged to ensure testing was conducted in line with
protocol specifications and that the results were accurate.
By comparing the results with vehicle owners' fuel usage measurements obtained
through independent customer surveys, PSA confirmed the accuracy of these tests.
Testing on a Peugeot 308 Allure 1.6-litre diesel with idle-stop and six-speed
manual transmission resulted in 5.0 litres per 100 kilometres, while the
customer survey average was between 5.0L/100km and 5.1L/100km.
A Citroen C4 Grand Picasso Exclusive with the same drivetrain achieved
5.6L/100km under the protocol compared with between 5.5 and 5.7L/100km in
customer data.
The biggest variance was a DS3 So Chic with the same drivetrain as the other
two vehicles, which recorded 4.9L/100km in testing while customers recorded
between 5.1 and 5.3L/100km.
PSA says the initial results show the protocol developed is "scientifically
robust and representative of a typical driver".
GoAuto compared these results with lab-based NEDC combined cycle data, which
rates the 308 variant tested at just 3.2L/100km, the C4 Grand Picasso at
4.0L/100km and the DS3 at 3.6L/100km.
It translates to the real-world thirst of models tested being respectively 56
per cent, 40 per cent and 36 per cent higher than official – but seemingly
misleading – NEDC figures.
As Volkswagen Group and a number of other carmakers face scrutiny over the
emissions of vehicles they produce in the wake of the 'dieselgate' scandal, the
decision by PSA to make public its real-world test results serves to give its
brands a sheen of transparency.
Bureau Veritas executive vice president of marketing, sales and communication
Marc Boissonnet described PSA's collaboration with NGOs and an independent
certification organisation in developing an conducting the tests as "both
innovative and constructive".
"It meets all the conditions for addressing issues that may be raised by
consumers. PSA Peugeot Citroen has done what was necessary to ensure an
independent and credible verification that can set the standard for the
automotive industry," he said.

Texas Woman's University Staff Handbook
Employee Benefits: Sick Leave
Sick Leave Accrual and Usage
Sick leave entitlement shall be earned by a regular full-time employee at the current rate of eight (8) hours per month or a fraction of a month employment, and shall accumulate with the unused amount of such leave carried forward each month. A regular part-time employee shall earn a pro rata share based on the percent time worked. Sick leave accrual will terminate on the last day of duty.
Sick leave with pay may be taken when sickness, injury, or pregnancy and confinement prevent the employee's performance of duty or when a member of her or his immediate family is actually ill. Immediate family shall be defined as those individuals related by kinship, adoption or marriage, as well as foster children certified by the Department of Protective and Regulatory Services.
An employee's use of sick leave for family members not residing in that employee's household is strictly limited to the time necessary to provide care and assistance to a spouse, child or parent of the employee who needs such care and assistance as a direct result of a documented medical condition.
This provision for taking sick leave does not extend to an employee's parent-in-law if they do not live in the same household.
Sickness occurring during a vacation period may be charged to sick leave. When an employee is ill for a continuous period of more than three (3) days, while on vacation, in order to be eligible for accumulated sick leave with pay, she or he shall be required to furnish a doctor's certificate showing the cause and nature of the illness or some other written statement of facts concerning the illness which is acceptable to the supervisor.
Absences Due to Illness
Staff employees are required to notify supervisors prior to absences. In the event of emergencies, when prior notification is impossible, employees are obligated to notify their supervisor of their absence at the earliest possible time. Staff employees are responsible for keeping their supervisor informed of the status of their absence and an expected return-to-work date.
Absences due to illness continuing for three (3) work shifts or more will require a doctor's certificate showing the cause and nature of the illness or some other written statement of the facts concerning the illness which is acceptable to the supervisor. The University may, at its discretion, request a doctor's release, or other documentation after any absence due to illness before a staff employee would be allowed to return to work. A doctor's statement and/or appropriate documentation shall be maintained by the employing department.
Patterned Sick Leave Usage Abuse
Staff employees are responsible for the appropriate use of sick leave. Sick leave abuse occurs when a staff employee uses sick leave for unauthorized purposes or misrepresents the actual reason for charging absences to sick leave. Abuse may also occur when an employee establishes a pattern of sick leave over a period of time such as the day before or after a holiday, on Mondays and Fridays, after paydays, any one specific day, half-days, or continued patterns of maintaining a zero or near zero sick leave account balance. Staff employees who engage in sick leave abuse, and/or show a pattern of failing to notify their supervisor of absences maybe subject to corrective guidelines action up to and including employment dismissal.
Please review "Good Attendance Habits" for a definition of acceptable attendance.
A state employee who transfers directly from one state agency to another shall be given credit by the receiving agency for the accrued balance of his or her accumulated vacation and sick leave, provided that his or her employment with the state is uninterrupted. If rehired by a state agency within one year, sick leave will be re-instated.
Upon the death of a TWU employee, the employee's estate is entitled to payment of one-half of his or her accumulated sick leave not to exceed 336 hours provided that the employee had continuous employment with the state for at least six months at the time of death.
For additional information concerning sick leave, please review TWU Policy 3.17 "Staff Attendance, Vacation, and Sick Leave".

DALE McFEATTERS: Yellen the natural choice to lead Fed
President Barack Obama has been criticized fairly for dithering over critical decisions and then not fighting hard for them. Circumstances have conspired to make one of the most important decisions of Obama's second term for him.
Thankfully, it's the right one, and the president may not even have to fight hard for its approval.
Last week, Larry Summers — Obama's first choice to lead the Federal Reserve Board, one of the most powerful jobs in Washington — withdrew from consideration.
The former Treasury secretary badly wanted the job and Obama badly wanted him to get it.
Summers would have been a hard sell to the Senate. He's brilliant, knows it and doesn't mind letting others know it. He has a combative personality combined with a knack for unfortunate phrasing, as when he suggested there might be inherent gender reasons for the disparity between men and women in the sciences. That, and his awkward attempts to explain his way out of the situation, cost him his job as president of Harvard.
Moreover, Summers was opposed for the job by a handful of Democratic senators on the left, who thought he was too averse to financial regulation. Obama seemed disinclined to bring them around.
Summers' withdrawal puts Janet Yellen at the head of the line for the Fed chairmanship. Vice chair of the central bank, she has more experience there than the last three chairmen did when they were named. Washington Post columnist Ezra Klein recently described her as being "the most qualified Fed chair in memory." And prescient, too. Recently declassified transcripts of Fed meetings from February 2007 show she foresaw the coming recession when many of her fellow board members did not.
Yellen is also one of the board's strongest voices for fighting unemployment, a too-often-forgotten element of the Fed's mandate.
For whatever reason, she gets lukewarm support from the White House, which recently floated the name of former Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner. He has emphatically said he doesn't want the job.
However, support for Yellen is strong outside the White House, in Congress and the financial community. She would not only be the first woman to hold the Fed job, she would be the first Democrat since 1987.
Obama has known since at least June that current chairman Ben Bernanke plans to leave when his second term expires in January. It's now September and time for the White House to get moving.
Presidents don't often get easy choices. This is an easy one.

Now half-awake, we need all the help we can get in understanding our situation.
Just then the door behind her opened, and Paulina, her eyes still but half-awake, peeped out.
This was from George Warren, whose voice denoted that he was only about half-awake.
The mind gets into a half-awake, half-sleepy state, which hinders it from obtaining sound slumber when bedtime comes.
She was simply quiescent and passive, like a little child only half-awake.
Round every corner and shooting along every street, taxis and motors were speeding, driven by half-awake chauffeurs.
half-awake, half-asleep, the days on shipboard go by as in a dream, and you gladly welcome back restored health.
The greater part of the night passed in that half-awake senile slumber.
For a long time she had been half-awake, ever since the vehicle had stopped, which must have been ages and ages ago.
The clerk dozed, half-awake, trying to make up his mind whether the noise he had heard above called for an investigation or not.
a merger of two Middle English verbs: 1. awaken, from Old English awæcnan (earlier onwæcnan; strong, past tense awoc, past participle awacen) "to awake, arise, originate," from a "on" + wacan "to arise, become awake" (see wake (v.)); and 2. awakien, from Old English awacian (weak, past participle awacode) "to awaken, revive; arise; originate, spring from," from a "on" (see a (2)) + wacian "to be awake, remain awake, watch" (see watch (v.)).
Both originally were intransitive only; the transitive sense being expressed by Middle English awecchen (from Old English aweccan) until later Middle English. In Modern English, the tendency has been to restrict the strong past tense and past participle (awoke, awoken) to the original intransitive sense and the weak inflection (awakened) to the transitive, but this never has been complete (see wake (v.); also cf. awaken).
"not asleep," c.1300, shortened from awaken, past participle of Old English awæcnan (see awaken).
"not asleep," c.1300, shortened from awaken, past participle of Old English awæcnan (see awaken).

Another debris plugged gas valve.
Just ran across a gas valve plugged with small, slightly rounded slivers of debris. They were pretty uniform in size and were mainly bunched up at the screened inlet. The preceding line was copper and had a drip leg that was 6 feet from the furnace,. The slightly rounded shape of the debris matches the curvature of the copper pipe so I am assuming the debris is from the 6 feet of copper pipe.
I have seen this twice before on one other furnace , where the plugging was 7 years apart.
Anyone have any ideas or experience on how this could happen?
For some time copper was being discouraged because of gas containing a significant amount of hydrogen sulfide . Some areas of distribution were worse than others . While it is discouraged for use with NG but is approved for LP I've seen black flakes in propane copper lines that will plug a screen .
In Texas, it's code now to install a trap on the gas line.

Windows 7 couldn't have had a much smoother ride up until now: seamless and stable betas, a release date that stuck and widespread recognition that Microsoft had produced the best operating system in its history (I actually prefer it to OS X). Still, there are always patches to be applied...
The largest of these is the Service Pack and the first for Windows 7 (you'll generally get around three in the lifetime of a Microsoft OS) has been leaked all over the Interweb. 'Build 7061' (build string: '6.1.7061.16537.amd64fre.win7.100327-0053') was first snagged by GeekSmack and it reports a fast installation ("MUCH faster than the install process for service packs on Vista") and two reboots were all that was required.
Changes? Nothing too major - at least in this build - with a compilation of bug fixes, performance and stability tweaks the main focus. This ties in with what Microsoft communications manager Brandon LeBlanc said about the service pack last month on the official Windows Team Blog:
"For Windows 7, SP1 includes only minor updates, among which are previous updates that are already delivered through Windows Update," he explained. "SP1 for Windows 7 will, however, deliver an updated Remote Desktop client that takes advantage of RemoteFX introduced in the server-side with SP1 for Windows Server 2008 R2."
So what could be the motivation for such a seemingly inconsequential first Service Pack? Optimists could argue there is little wrong with Windows 7 in the first place - and they'd be right, but I suspect the true answer is more cynical: to attract businesses.
"Windows 7 is ready for commercial deployments now and many industry experts have recommended that customers do not wait for SP1," argued Blanc in the same blog post. I'd agree, but perhaps it remains easier to convince cautious organisations with that little issue out of the way in any case.
Either way, I suspect we won't have to wait long for an official SP1 release - call it a hunch...

My Samsung Galaxy Tab (edition 2011)
by Eric Butow, Lonzell Watson
Work details
My Samsung Galaxy Tab by Eric Butow
No current Talk conversations about this book.
It's sad, but true -- they just don't package owners manuals with electronic devices anymore. Maybe part of that is because electronics are pretty intuitive, and part of it is because the manuals would weigh more than the gadget, and part is certainly because people didn't actually READ the manuals when they were provided. Whatever the reason, there is no manual provided, and in many cases a manual is needed. It has fallen to third party publishers to provide these manuals.
First -- this is a big book. 483 pages, not including the index. But it's worth it. It's easy to use, easy to refer to, and it explains everything in detail, from turning the thing on to downloading and installing apps. Full color pictures, diagrams, easy to read text -- if owners manuals had always been like this, people wouldn't have stopped reading them.
