Japan likely to nominate ADB's Kuroda as BOJ head: sources
By Leika Kihara and Yuko Yoshikawa
TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's government is likely to nominate Asian Development Bank President Haruhiko Kuroda, an advocate of aggressive monetary easing, as its next central bank governor, sources told Reuters on Monday.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is also seen filling one of two deputy governor posts with Kikuo Iwata, an academic critical of Bank of Japan policy and an advocate of unorthodox monetary easing steps, the Nikkei newspaper reported.
The yen sank 1.4 percent in early trade to 94.67 against the dollar on expectations the reported nominees will steer the central bank toward bolder monetary stimulus measures.
"Kuroda's nomination won't change the course that has been dictated by Abe in recent months - that is aggressive monetary policy, but perhaps thanks to the inclusion of Iwata the market will expect more eye-catching bold easing measures," said Masamichi Adachi, senior economist at JPMorgan Securities in Tokyo.
The government will submit its nominations for the governor and two deputy governor posts to parliament this week. The incumbents leave on March 19.
Kuroda, 68, has been considered a strong candidate to replace current BOJ Governor Masaaki Shirakawa because of his extensive experience in international policy and his calls for more aggressive monetary easing that matched the views of Abe.
The choice of Kuroda, who has long criticized the BOJ as too slow in expanding stimulus, will likely nudge the central bank into more aggressive, unorthodox measures to achieve its new 2 percent inflation target set in January.
As Japan's top financial diplomat from 1999 to 2003, Kuroda aggressively intervened in the exchange-rate market to weaken the yen to support the country's export-reliant economy. Continued...

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel's government has given the final go-ahead for the construction of 1,100 new housing units in east Jerusalem.
The move is sure to heighten tensions, which are already high following a Palestinian move last week to seek U.N. membership.
Israel's Interior Ministry announced Tuesday that it had given the final approval for the new homes to be built in Gilo, a sprawling Israeli enclave in southeast Jerusalem. It said construction could begin after a mandatory 60-day period for public comment.
The Palestinians claim east Jerusalem, which Israel captured in the 1967 Mideast war, as their future capital. They oppose all Israeli construction in the city's eastern sector and have demanded a freeze on settlement construction in east Jerusalem and the adjacent West Bank.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel's prime minister has ruled out a freeze on settlement construction — a stance that is expected to further stall the resumption of peace talks with Palestinians.
The Palestinians have said they will not negotiate unless Israel halts settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, land which they claim as part of a future independent state. Both areas were captured by Israel in the 1967 war.
In comments published in Tuesday's Jerusalem Post, Israel's prime minister said last year's 10-month freeze on construction failed to yield results. Benjamin Netanyahu said he saw no need for another moratorium on settlement construction.
The Palestinians, also fed up with deadlocked negotiations, have asked the United Nations to recognize their independence.

The American Hospital Association is pushing the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to promptly create a centralized repository on public health agency readiness to receive data hospitals must submit under the meaningful use program.
The association is leveraging the federal Office of Management and Budget to get quicker action from CMS by sending a letter to Howard Shelanski, administrator of OMBs Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. CMS confirmed its plans to create the website in the agencys final rule on Stage 2 meaningful use, which was released September 2012, but has yet to follow through, according to the letter. The agency should expedite its website development to support the goals of efficient electronic reporting to public health agencies and registries. Time is of the essence, as some hospitals already are attempting to meet the Stage 2 meaningful use requirements to electronically send three types of data (immunizations, reportable labs and biosurveillance) to public health and registries on a continuous basis. Many more hospitals will be required to do so beginning Oct. 1.

Written by Dave Dulberg, USC blog contributor
The first morning practice of fall camp was more or less an up-tempo, run-through without pads, coming in at a shade under two and a half hours.
- The injury list has grown: LB Chris Galippo missed practice this morning and will have an MRI on his right shoulder later today. QB Jesse Scroggins was also a no-show and plans to see a hand specialist sometime this week, after spraining a ligament on his throwing hand during Monday's scrimmage. Freshman OG Aundrey Walker (who began practice with the first team O-line for the second straight day) suffered a hip strain during the morning session, although Lane Kiffin didn't believe it was all that serious. S Tony Burnett (ankle) and RB Amir Carlisle (quad) also left practice early.
- Although the last session of summer school ended on Tuesday, sophomore WR Markeith Ambles will be held out of practice until his grades come back.
- Special teams training reigned supreme Wednesday morning, and freshman PK Andre Heidari took full advantage of the extra work. Heidari- who Kiffin said would be the starter after his performance in Monday's scrimmage- made five-of-six attempts inside of 50 yards. The punter job is still up for grabs according to the head coach, as freshman Kris Albarado and redshirt junior walk-on Kyle Negrete vie for the final nod.
- Sophomore return men Nickell Robey and Robert Woods took part in an early morning competition, to see who could catch and hold onto more balls at once without a single drop. Both maintained four with ease, but No.5 ultimately did them in, ending the battle in a draw.
- Kiffin acknowledged that he has spoken to RB Marc Tyler, who is currently not with the team due to off-field behavior. "Nothing has changed, and he is still trying to get himself right." The coach went on to reiterate that there is no timetable for his return to camp.
- Quarterback Matt Barkley was Mr. Efficiency during the two-minute drill. The junior connected on seven-of-eight attempts and drove the offense 70 yards down the field in just over 90 seconds. The drive was capped off by a 10-yard touchdown grab from redshirt senior Brandon Carswell (pictured above).
- Speaking of Carswell, Kiffin lauded the wide receiver for his consistency and work ethic during camp to this point. He even went as far as to dub No.80 "the front-runner for the MVP of camp" through the first week.
- Carswell on his place in USC's talented receiving corps: "I'm not really worried about being talked about or anything like that. I am just trying to go out here and do my job, as well as making sure everybody around is doing there job, so we can win games."
- Today's two-a-day continues under the lights of Howard Jones Field at 6 p.m. Here's the coach after the no-pads portion of practice.

Observe the last three days of Holy Week with the early morning prayer service, Tenebrae, at 6 a.m. on Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday in the Chapel of St. Basil, hosted by the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist.
An ancient Lenten prayer, Tenebrae means darkness, and it combines the psalms and readings of Matins and Lauds. The prayer begins in a darkened church, with only the illumination of a lighted 15-candle candelabra on the altar. After each psalm, a candle is extinguished until only the center candle remains lit, symbolizing Christ. The service ends at dawn, and all leave in silence.
"The Franciscan Sisters have prayed Tenebrae for many years," said Sister Mary Roberta Connors, FSE. "We used to invite friends to our small convent chapel. Interest grew to the point that about seven years ago, we opened it to the public and moved it to the Chapel of St. Basil."
Everyone is welcome to attend. To volunteer to be a reader, email Sister Mary Roberta at firstname.lastname@example.com.

City to Get $1.77B in Sandy Aid
The federal government has approved New York City's plan to spend the first $1.77 billion in federal aid for Sandy recovery, after New Jersey and New York got their plans accepted last month.
Of the funds, $648 million will be put aside for programs to rebuild homes and make them more storm-resistant. Some $293 million will go to loans, grants and other programs for businesses. The remainder of the funds will go to reimburse city agencies for overtime and other emergency costs and be put aside for future infrastructure projects.
The money falls far short of what the city outlined in its application as unmet needs. The housing assistance, for example, represents just one-sixth of the $4.4 billion the city said it still needed for publicly and privately owned housing, even after insurance and other sources of aid are considered.
But U.S Housing Secretary Shaun Donovan said the first allotment represents about one-third of what the city should eventually receive for Community Development Block grants.
"You should not think of today's announcement as the only funding that should be available, and in fact it is not even the majority of funding that's available," he said.
Donovan added the state is working with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to develop a plan for tapping into what is called the "Hazard Mitigation Grant Program," which pays for measures such as raising private homes above flood plains to reduce the risk of future flooding.
Michael Murr, who lives in hard-hit Gerritsen Beach, Brooklyn, said he received FEMA funds, but found that loan requirements were too onerous. He is restoring his home out-of-pocket. Now, he is concerned about what this latest round of funds can be used for.
"Are there going to be strings attached?" he asked. "They're going to want us to use this money towards the raising of our house, which is an impossible thing for a lot of people."
Homeowners will be able to apply for the funds starting in early June. They they'll meet with housing recovery specialists who'll go through the different options and pots of money available to help them rebuild or even elevate their homes. Businesses can start applying on May 20.
Listen above to WNYC's Richard Hake conversation with Matthew Schuerman about the Sandy Aid.

Pad Tha-i
The question is not "Do you need an iPad?" The question is "Which of these iPad options is right for me?" ASK THE RIGHT QUESTION, PLEASE.If you went into a sushi bar and asked where you could get a hammer, people would laugh and point and call you names. Why? Because "where can I get a hammer" is the wrong question for a sushi bar. Similarly, "why do I need an iPad" is the wrong question for this sale here today. Because you need one. You really, really, really need one. Go another minute without one and you might- well, there's no need to speculate horrifically.
But WHICH iPad? That's certainly a valid question. After all, one will attach to the AT&T 4G LTE mobile broadband network, while the other will work with nothin' but WiFi. Both, of course, boast iSights and an A6X Chip and the Retina Display and all the other cool iPad stuff, so whichever you pick, that part will be the same.
So it's your choice now! Do you want the sushi you can use to surf the web as you walk around your apartment, or do you want the sushi that you can use anywhere that you can get a signal? See? All about asking the right question.
No, you're not allowed to say you don't like sushi. The time for that has past.

American troops are in the process of standing down from Iraq, but the legacy of what those brave men and women endured due to the crimes of Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld will not readily pass away from those who bore he brunt of combat. A new report, 'Losing the Battle: The Challenge of Military Sucide" paints a grim picture regarding what is happening every day in America. It warns that greater effort must be made to prevent those who leave the service from harming themselves after battle field harm is over.
Many vets enjoy the comradeship of buddies in combat, but once home that support is no longer available. The report emphasizes the importance of: making certain medical information is shared; encourage troops to freely discuss emotional issues in their lives, remove the stigma associated with admitting combat stress, and focus on preventive actions for those who are close to suicide.
There are men and women who are high risk and they need help immediately and long term. Unfortunately, we lack solid data as to the number of members of the military who contemplate or discuss suicide. They live in lonely parts of their minds and the end result may well be death.

Arsène Wenger has yet to decide whether he will enter the transfer market in the New Year.
The January transfer window opens in a little over seven weeks and the Arsenal manager is already fielding questions about possible reinforcements to his squad.
Wenger has not ruled out the prospect of new recruits but he cited Saturday's 2-1 victory over Manchester United as proof that he already possesses plenty of strength in depth.
"It's far from decided," replied Wenger when asked about his transfer window plans.
"We will make a check at the end of December and we will see. We have had many players out and showed we have a great squad that can win the big games."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

A&M Corpus Christi Seeks to be Drone Test Center
Texas A&M Corpus Christi is in the running to be selected by the FAA as one of six sites where the capabilities of drones will be tested and their potential for a wide variety of uses studied, 1200 WOAI news reports.
The University is the center point for a state-endorsed effort which would use airport and air space across the state, especially in remote west Texas.
Phase two of the implementation of the center has been completed. NASA's World Wind World Viewer, situational awareness command and control software and a commercial autopilot software package have been installed.
Dr. Ron George, Senior Research Development Officer, tells 1200 WOAI news that business, researchers, and government are all anxious to determine just what unmanned aerial vehicles can do.
"Once they are integrated into the air space, their uses are, just use your imagination," George told 1200 WOAI news. "Talk about precision agriculture, talk about efficiently and instantly monitoring oil and gas pipelines. Think about being able to monitor a disaster like the Bastrop fire from the air without endangering a pilot."
George says industry is 'Jonesin' for this technology.'
"Law enforcement sees it, industry sees it, state agencies see it."
He says drones have gotten a bad rap due to their offensive use in the course of the war on Terror, but he says the possibility that drones offer is unlimited.
But what about the idea that Jeff Bezos has raised of using drones to deliver packages for Amazon dot com?
"Is it feasible, I don't know?" George said. "He is apparently down the road with these technologies to see if they can work efficiently for him."
A final decision is expected by the end of this year. 25 sites have submitted applications to the U.S. Department of Transportation to host the FAA drone testing program.

Hey everybody, I'm new here and did a search but couldn't find anything that totally covered my questions.
My girlfriend is looking to buy a pistol while it's still legal to
We need some suggestions for concealed carry pistols. Preferred caliber is 9mm so we can save on ammo costs, concealed would be mostly in her purse or glove box when in the car. Preferred price under $400
My girlfriend is so left hand dominant that she only feels comfortable shooting left handed. She can fire a right handed pistol left handed but I generally have to walk her through the cycling process because it feels so counter intuitive to her in her right hand.
This creates a problem to where she doesn't feel safe for concealed carry with a pistol where slide and mag releases are setup for a right hander (as far as reloading or clearing jams is concerned) because it is a time consuming process.
Any suggestions on a lefty vs. Ambi vs. revolver
Also she has small hands, small enough to where the Sig 226 I want feels huge to her, but on the other hand a Ruger LCP is almost to small.
Thanks in advance for any input.

Make sure you always sit to her left
"Engage your brain before you engage your weapon" - James "Mad Dawg" Mattis
Have her practice using her trigger or middle finger to release the mag. This can also work for the slide release on some models depending on how heavy the lever feels to operate. I can use almost any RH pistol with my left hand. The only real issue is the safety for speed of getting the gun in play.
Bottom line it's a righty world , adapt.
"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson
Nemo Me Impune Lacesset
Make and model aside, I am totally against glove box and purse carry, unless the purse is specifically design for CC. If she insists on carrying/storing in these locations, then she needs something with an ambidextrous safety. Grabbing a Glock or similar under stress without a holster is asking for trouble. Sure, you could store in a holster in either, but IMO will waste precious moments.

Your $400 limit for an ambi pistol is going to make things difficult. My Beretta PX4 Compact is ambi, with ambi slide releases and a mag release that can be changed to the right side. I picked mine up for $489, but that is certainly one to look at.
BTW - I, too, am a lefty.

The Springfield XD line has dual/ambi mag releases. Although, even though I'm a righty, I find myself using my middle finger to use the "lefty's" mag release, since my hand is on the smallish side. Your GF may find using this method more comfortable with a female sized hand, making a lefthanded mag release unnecessary, since she may find it easier to hit it with her middle finger. With regard to the slide stop, I asked my hubby (left handed) how he does it; he sling-shots to chamber a round (which, incidentally, I do as well; the XD's I own have REALLY hard slide stops, or my thumb's too weak, lol).
Whatever choice your GF makes, there are workarounds for lefties. The mag release being the easiest to adjust to, the slide release vs. "sling-shotting" the next easiest to overcome. Unless the pistol she chooses already comes with a ambi thumb safety, I think it would be a better choice to forgo pistols with a thumb safety altogether. Whatever the choice, practice and training will make for more confidence and natural movement in "running the gun."

Glock 19 or M&P9. Nuff said.
My name is Frogman46 and I'm tougher than you.
FWIW, the Bersa 9UC has ambidextrous controls for the slide release and safety/decocker. The mag release can be switched easily.
EDC--XD9 Service and/or XDs-45 depending on my mood
Soon-to-be new mama to a S&W 66-2 4"
I'm trying to talk her into a gun with no external safety.
We will look at the XD's for sure.
She has reasons for glove box/purse carry, mostly work won't allow it in the building/partly fashion choices on days off. I'd prefer she carry on the body but at this point that's what she's leaning towards.
I sent her the link for the flash bang holster and we will be looking at their whole line up after she gets off work tonight.
Any purse she owns she can easily modify with a molle system or something to hold a holster in an easy to reach place in the purse so it won't get buried under receipts and gum wrappers.

Hi Ron,
What state are you in? If we are in the same state, I would be interested in your K98's.
Thanks. I think I will just leave it alone and forget about it. Not one to monkey around and piece out my collection.
Hello Ron,
Sorry, but I have maybe two sets put back, and as soon as I gave them up I'd need them. Those turn up. However, I'd leave the ones on there that you have until you run across another unnumbered set. Be careful as some of these guard screws are not for K98ks, but various other rifles, hence the problems with them lining up.

I got him from the pet store on November he started the behavior after I took him to my boyfriends house who has a dog who is aggressive toward other animals .

I'm not sure how else to describe what he is doing with his food. He barks maliciously and bites hard when one touches his food.

You need to get the word 'protective' out of your vocabulary for a 4 m old puppy (who's been doing this for a month).
What is your breeder recommending? Are the other puppies from the litter behaving the same?
You been working on - - > http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...s-puppies.html
a few hours a day?
What makes a normal GSD puppy able to grow up to be a drug/bomb/police/therapy/herding/agility/obedience/whatever dog also makes them more of a challenge to raise.
There is a good reason most of us take the easy route and start up puppy classes early on with our pups.
This may seem a bit familiar
He is more than fine when i hand feed him. But he gets so protective when I'm even near him. I try not to take his food away I only do it when he bites me for touching it. Ive had him for 2 months now and he has been doing that for a month now. I try to just leave him alone and maybe he'll stop but he hasnt stopped. I really dont want him to be like that because I have a niece who is 2 years old and I dont want him to bite her or me when hes older
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
Did you have him since he was a puppy? Are you intentionally taking his food away (that can cause food guarding)? If you try to take their food away just to prove you can, the dog learns not to trust you.
I would start with hand feeding him. Then anytime my hand would come near the bowl would be to drop more food into it not take it away. I would also practice NILF. I did this with a four month old foster dog that I had who would growl when I went near his food. He was a Pit/Golden/Chow mix and it worked. But it takes time and patience. Until this dog, I had no idea a young dog could be like this. It was a learning experience to say the least as none of my own dogs guarded things from me.
I had all my own dogs at eight weeks and I would make them sit before I fed them. I didn't mess with their food while they were eating, I would drop more food into their bowls with my hands and hand feed them. I've never had a food guarding dog doing that.
Aggressive behavior on male puppy
I have a 4 month old GSD . he is aggressive when it comes to food and me touching him or the food . he growls has barked and bit me lightly. He started doing it on other things too like when I was trying to put away cables he was messing with. He does not act like that when I take his toys or treats. It is making me a little bit scared that he will one day bite me hard. He does not do it to my boyfriend , only towards me.What could be the problem and how can I fix it

VIDEO: Incredible Paralympic table tennis tekkers!
Without question probably the best Paralympic table tennis shot you will ever see.
22-year-old David Wetherill represented Team GB at the games and has become an online sensation after pulling off an unbelievable right-handed 'Superman shot'.
The world number five was unfortunately beaten by Italy's Raimondo Alecci and is out of the tournament but nobody will forget this winning shot against Germany anytime soon.
The crowd at the ExCel Arena rose to their feet as Wetherill produced a moment of magic at a crucial stage of the game and was roundly applauded by both sets of coaches.
Understandably the young Briton was disappointed to be eliminated but happily tweeted about his incredible shot.
At least I might get a few YouTube hits. Superman diving forehand winner? I practice that I'll have you know.

road rash on the bumpers, needed a new alternator, paint was a bit rough needed a window regulator, VCG was leaking, maintenance wasn't up to date, suspension needs an update, CSB and guibo were bad headlights were wired wrong...and THERE WERE 3 DIFFERENT TIRES ON THE CAR WTF!?!?...but you know what? I've fixed all of this besides the paint being a bit hazy, VCG, and guibo (trying to figure out if the paint can just be detailed to be fine, not very versed in the paint world, need a guibo and waiting for vanos seals now before i do the VCG), all of this, including the spark plugs vanos seals and vcg waiting to go in, cost me...400? if THAT? I payed 3500 for the car, hell i paid 4000 for my 05 CIVIC (though its mint), granted this has 166k miles, but in my hands it will last quite a while longer, and is shaping up into a truly remarkable car as is. I'm beyond happy with my purchase, paying that much for a car that can literally put a smile on your face every time you look at it or get behind the steering well is WELL worth it, and I'll probably be buying an m3 to fix up when this ones mint just because I won't be able to switch off the inner repair man this brought out in me, lol.

Re: Deck fill cap measurements
I just noticed that this 4 year-old thread I started has been resurrected! I promised to report on how I fared trying to remove the frozen deck cap for my holding tank and I did not keep my word then , so I will do so now.
Well I succeeded in removing the cap, without destroying it, and have been thoroughly enjoying the experience of pumping out my holding tank ever since.
Here's what I did: I have a friend who works on machinery and swore that an impact drill will free up anything. He very kindly fabricated for me a customized bit with two steel pins welded to a steel bar. The pins fit into the two holes in the cap and he welded a nut to back back of the bar which fit a socket bit that I fitted into a 110 V impact drill rented from a tool shop. He was right! The intense vibration from the impact driver broke the cap loose!
Re: Deck fill cap measurements
With similar "frozen waste" problem I tried lubricants, then drilling 2 bolt holes and inserting screw bolts then trying to lever twist using the bolts. All failed, ended up drilling 1" hole and then using hacksaw to segment the remaining part of the ring and pulling it out with pliers. Next time I get a cap on, using teflon thread.
Have you tried PB Blaster to help un-freeze the threads? Link here
Also, Sailor's Solution sells an adjustable width key called KeyWiz that can accept a 3/8" socket drive. Link here
Good luck.
|Hey, thanks. I thought of the torch idea but was a little wary. I also thought about alternating heat and dry ice to get it to break loose, but didn't actually try that yet. Never noticed the inspection port, but will look for it. thanks for your suggestions.
I'd like to help you, but our boat uses a bronze cap that is keyed to the winch handles.
You mention that you've tried all the usual remedies. In case you haven't tried it, I will suggest that you put a torch on the cap and heat it up. This will often break the bonds of corrosion.
One final suggestion -- If you are desperate to pump the holding tank, you can access it through the inspection port at the bottom of the starboard cockpit locker. (At least, you can on ours, and I do that about once a year to give it a good vacuuming with the pump out hose.)
Deck fill cap measurements
Hi all,
Here's a pretty uninteresting thread, but I really need some info. The cap for the waste holding tank on my 1988 PSC31, hull #9, is completely frozen. The usual means of freeing it up haven't worked and a friend, who is a mechanic, believes a snuggly fitting 2-prong bit in an impact wrench should do the trick. He has offered to fabricate a bit to fit the 2 holes in the cap, but unfortunately I live 2000 miles from my boat and need the center-to-center distance and exact diameter of the holes in the cap. If anyone lives on their boat or is visiting it soon, could you please get these measurements for me? I expect any of the older PSCs will have the same brass caps. I would like to be able to pump out my holding tank! Thanks much.
P.S. In return I will let you know if this scheme works.

Arthur Kell Quartet
The Arthur Kell Quartet are in high demand, with 14 European tours over the past 8 years, including Copenhagen Jazz Festival, Madrid Jazz Festival and the Jazz And More Festival (Romania).
Bassist-composer Arthur Kell fronts a crew of top-shelf improvisers teaming up with alto saxophonist Loren Stillman, guitarist Brad Shepik, drummer Mark Ferber on this captivating quartet outing. Performances hop from infectious, energy charged movements, to avant-groove-oriented Ornette Coleman style writing to intelligent moody and mysterious pieces.
Arthur Kell has emerged as one of the most original voices on today's New York jazz scene. His compositions, designed with strong melodies and open structures, keep the focus on group interaction and the impulse of the soloists. Arthur's ability to fit seamlessly into any musical context has made him much in demand as a sideman. Working with Thomas Chapin, Bobbie Previte, Sam Newsome, Christian Howes, Jonathan Kreisberg, Art Baron, Matt Wilson, Bernard Purdie and Bill McHenry to name a few.
"thoughtful compositions brought into a very liberated space, eschewing technical display in favour of subtle group interplay." Cormac Larkin, Irish Times
"This is music beyond the chart; it is sentient art, challenging listeners with incongruent lines and exhilarating, exacting conversations. It is volatile, daring jazz." Jordan Richardson, Blinded by Sound
"Everything that modern jazz should be: vibrant, challenging music from a band so tight within its group dynamic and so confident in its individualistic chops that every movement is a lively step forward". Jazz Improv Magazine

Most major mythologies say that humanity will end up in either a hades or a heaven. Their destination might be based on merit, usually on wealth, sometimes on whim. But there they go, either through a series of perfection or an interrupting rapture. It's hard to imagine an ending to the world other than one or the other. This cosmic threshing remains a philosophical option. The mythology lives on.Take, for instance, the first season of HBO's "True Detective." Much has been written about the s … [Read more...]

Talking About Thomism
June 23, 2014 by 2 Comments
Some books and songs and movies and talks stay with you, and the longer they stay with you, the more you feel the need to share them. This past January, I heard a short discussion of St. Thomas Aquinas's thought (called Thomism) that was among the most compelling I'd yet encountered. It's stayed with me, and I wanted to highlight it, especially in light of conversations I've had with some friends lately about putting Christ at the center of our discourse. Fr. Thomas Joseph White, a Dominican … [Read more...]

Window Wells & Grading
2 Attachment(s)
I would like to enlarge a window and put in a window well. The ground slopes in the backyard and after a heavy rain, water pools in the middle of the yard a bit. Is there anything I need to worry about with regard to grading.
I know 2 people that have window wells and they both had flooding in their basement. Is there a relationship with window wells and flooding?
Sure looks like you could add fill and raise that grade at least 6" to get the water to run away from the house toward the yard.
If the well does not have the proper drainage in the bottom of the pit, grade does not run away from it, foundation wall was not waterproofed before back filling, waters going to get in.
Yep----the new window well will need a drain----
Does your house have perimeter drains and a sump pump?
If not, your new larger window will require some trenching and a sump pit-
That part might be more work than adding a window and a window well-
Grading, gravel, and a properly installed vertical drain leg into your weeping system is pivotal.
I would add a battery back up to the list as well if your sump runs during rain storms.
A good sump system a must but there is not replacement for proper grading and moisture direction.

Final Stats | Quotes | Notes | Photo Gallery
PITTSBURGH (AP) - Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees shrugged off a miserable first three quarters to hit tight end Tyler Eifert for a 6-yard touchdown with less than 7 minutes to go and lift the Fighting Irish to a 15-12 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday.
Rees finished 24 of 41 for 216 yards, but was a perfect 8 for 8 on the game-winning drive as the Irish (2-2) won their second straight. Jonas Gray scored on a 79-yard touchdown run for Notre Dame, which overcame eight penalties and two costly turnovers.
It wasn't pretty. The Irish failed to muster any momentum for long stretches against the Panthers (2-2), but found enough to win their second straight following an 0-2 start.
Tino Sunseri threw for 165 yards and a score for Pitt (2-2), but was sacked twice on the Panthers' final drive to snuff out a late rally.
Pitt was looking to end an eventful week by giving coach Todd Graham his first signature win with the program and prove it wasn't distracted by the school's announcement that it's leaving the Big East for the ACC in three years.
The Panthers spent 45 minutes pushing the Irish around, shutting down Rees and keeping wide receiver Michael Floyd in check.
Yet when Notre Dame needed it, Rees found a way by consistently looking to Eifert.
The junior caught four passes on the game-deciding drive, including an 18-yard gain that gave Notre Dame a first down at the Pitt 9. He landed hard on the play but brushed off the trainers and immediately caught a 3-yard pass and followed it up by hauling in a laser from Rees, who split a pair of Pitt defenders and found Eifert just past the goal line.
Pitt drove to Notre Dame 40 before going backward.
Aaron Lynch sacked Rees on first down and Prince Shembo racked up Notre Dame's fifth and final sack on third down, setting the Panthers up with a fourth-and-26.
No chance.
Sunseri's pass to Mike Shanahan was incomplete and Rees came on to lead the Irish to one more first down and run out the clock.
Ray Graham ran for 82 yards and added 43 yards receiving for Pitt.
Rees wasn't much better against the defense. Pitt sacked him twice and gave him little time to throw.
Floyd caught three passes on Notre Dame's first drive but managed just one the rest of the way. Eifert stepped in to finish with a career-high eight grabs for 75 yards.
Cierre Wood ran 23 times for 96 yards for Notre Dame but it was Gray who provided the big play. The senior sprinted 79 yards down the sideline in the second quarter for his first career score, the school's longest rush since Terrance Howard darted 80 yards against West Virginia in 2000.
It looked for the game's first 50 minutes that it wouldn't be enough to prevent Todd Graham from getting his second big win over the Irish in the last year.
Graham coached Tulsa to a 28-27 win in South Bend in 2010, a victory that helped bring him to Pitt. He's spent the last nine months trying to makeover the program. He preaches constantly about the virtue of speed and likes to call his style of play "high-octane football," but the Panthers used a decidedly low-grade approach to take the lead.
Pitt went backward on its first possession of the second half, punting after a sack and a false start. The Irish, however, roughed punter Matt Yoklic and the Panthers took advantage with a grinding 19-play drive that ended more than 8 minutes later with Sunseri finding tight end Hubie Graham for a 3-yard touchdown to put Pitt up 12-7.
For a while, it looked like it would be enough thanks to a Pitt defense that made life uncomfortable for Rees.
The sophomore, who took the starting job away from senior Dayne Crist three weeks ago, has teased the Irish much of the year, switching between flashes of brilliance and youthful mistakes.
The miscues were there once again. Rees fumbled in the second quarter to set up a Pitt field goal and threw an interception at Pitt's goal line to end another threat.

Eating Out: Drama Camp's cast will have you wanting s'more
Seven years ago, "Eating Out" – the movie franchise better known for showcasing its actors' private parts than their acting talent – entered gay consciousness. Since then, three sequels have spawned, the latest of which, "Eating Out: Drama Camp" (on DVD Oct. 25), finds partnered Casey (Daniel Skelton) and Zack (Chris Salvatore) at a crossroads in their relationship. Enter "straight" boy Benji (Aaron Milo) stage left and the usual antics ensue – many without pants. In a recent interview, the movie's stars came together to discuss their on- and off-screen chemistry, the script's sometimes cringe-worthy comedy, how social media impacts low-budget films like this, and where the group is headed for installment five – the setting of which will undoubtedly expose even more skin.
MIKEY ROX: The boys are back! How does it feel to return to the "Eating Out" franchise for your second go round?
CHRIS SALVATORE: So amazing! Filming these movies is always such a blast. Lots of laughs all day on set.
DANIEL SKELTON: It feels great. It was a really fun experience since we were already so comfortable with each other.
MR: Chris, while filming "Eating Out: All You Can Eat," you were dating your co-star Michael Walker. I'm sure that helped with the on-screen chemistry. Did you employ a similar technique for "Eating Out: Drama Camp"?
CS: [Laughs] There was definitely some off-screen chemistry that made the sex scenes all the more fun.
MR: You and Aaron have a couple very steamy scenes in this movie. Was there any prep work involved? Don't be shy.
CS: Of course he throws the question my way! Let's just say there was some scene-study rehearsals that helped. [Laughs]
MR: Aaron, assuming you saw the previous installments in the "Eating Out" franchise, you knew that the new guy always shows a generous amount of skin. Were you ready for that?
AARON MILO: I saw the first "Eating Out" years ago, so I didn't make an assumption or even really have an idea of how much skin I would show. I definitely knew going into it what I wasn't going to show. I don't know if I'd ever be ready to expose myself in such a vulnerable way. But I let go, and it ended up being a really fun and, well, interesting experience, to say the least.
MR: Your ass is really… nice.
AM: Thanks, mom!
MR: Let's discuss the script. There's no denying that the "Eating Out" movies can be classified as campy and even raunchy, but there are some jokes in this film that push the boundaries. There's a jab about Lindsay Lohan's, um, itchy nether regions. She's been known to sue people for saying bad things regarding her substance abuse and sexual proclivities. Are the writers worried?
AM: Worried? Hilarious. [Q.] Allan [Brocka] is fearless with his humor. You get it or you don't. If you don't, I'm not sure what drew you to watch a movie called "Eating Out: Drama Camp" in the first place.
DS: I highly doubt the writers – who are amazing – really care about Lindsay Lohan's feelings. But I do. I love Lindsay!
CS: If Lindsay Lohan were to sue, I think we are in pretty good shape if she's watching the movie.
MR: There's another joke about the late Brittany Murphy that is less than flattering – and that's an understatement. Did anyone think that joke was too soon and too vulgar?
AM: I was a little shocked when I first read that joke. I was a little worried that joke may not fly, but it was a joke and it wasn't said with ill intent. I don't really know if anyone felt it was out of line.
DS: I think people know what kind of humor to expect from the "Eating Out" films. It's abrasive but funny and sharp and sometimes unexpected. I love that about these movies.
MR: You're all regular Facebook users. How does social media affect the marketing of a movie like this?
DS: I think it helps for sure. It's also really nice to connect with people who have seen the films and read their feedback.
AM: It's so important. People are able to get so much more than just a movie poster nowadays; they can interact and learn so much more about the cast and crew through Internet marketing. I'm so grateful to be able to connect with my fans so easily and on such an interactive level.
CS: Love social media – especially twitter! Follow me @CSalvatore.
MR: Will do. After "Eating Out: Drama Camp" comes "Eating Out: The Open Weekend." Any spoilers you can give into the next sequel?
AM: No, no. I'm not gonna be the one giving everything away. You gotta watch.
DS: It takes place in Palm Spring sand there are a lot of hot guys. How's that for a spoiler?
CS: Everyone is pretty much naked the whole movie. [Laughs]

9-Year-Old Florida Boy, Alive To Tell His Story Fighting A Gator With His Hands!
James Barney, A 9-year-old Florida boy fought a 9-foot alligator this week. He took a swim in a restricted area of a lake in Osceola County Thursday, which turned into a dangerous dip. The gator approached him and bit him several times. Witnesses say the gator was 9 feet long, and about 500 pounds!
From his hospital bed, he says the experience amazed him, he thought someone was just playing with him and he didn't know what happened. "I reached down to grab it, and I felt its jaw, I felt its teeth, and I didn't know what to do, so I immediately reacted and hit it a couple times." Barney Says
According to the Orlando Sentinel, Barney suffered "three superficial bites, mostly on his buttocks, and about 30 teeth marks and claw scratches on his back, stomach and legs."

Artist's Notes
"Justice and Peace shall kiss, Truth shall spring out of the earth. Kindness and Truth shall meet, Justice shall look down from the heavens."
Each year when the verses from Psalm 85 were read in the liturgical service, I would visualize the poetry of the words, the hope they made me feel about living. The opportunity to hear and read these words each year, to revisit them, refreshes the spirit.
During the 1980s, I made many ink sketches of the images that these words sparked in me. I wanted to paint an image that conveyed the feelings I have from these verses. To share this was a challenge for me. My sketches incorporated different events into one large landscape, as there are several visual ideas in these four short verses.
In 1989 I completed an ink drawing that I felt could be the basis for a large painting. The acrylic painting, PSALM 85, was completed in 1990, and this painting was the source for a poster printed by The National Association for Hispanic Elderly, for use as a fundraiser for their work developing housing for the elderly. The printed poster gave many people an opportunity to live with the poetry of this image.
In 1998, I was able to repurchase the painting, and at that time I spent two weeks adding, changing, refining, "saturating" the painting. I became strongly attached to this image.
The dedication committee of the new Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, in Los Angeles, chose images from my artwork to be made into processional banners carried at the dedicatory ceremony in September 2002. They chose my PSALM 85 as one of the images. I remember that, when I was a child, our family would visit and attend mass at the old Cathedral of Saint Vibiana, in downtown Los Angeles.
At the same time as the Cathedral dedication, I had been considering PSALM 85 for my next serigraph. It would be an opportunity to develop and further enhance this image. Through collaboration of artist and printer, decisions of ink color mixtures, and 51 individual drawings required for each color, I was able to see the gradual evolution of the work. The completed PSALM 85 has achieved amazing texture and color saturation.
You once favored, LORD, your land, restored the good fortune of Jacob. You forgave the guilt of your people, pardoned all their sins. Selah You withdrew all your wrath, turned back your burning anger. Restore us once more, God our savior; abandon your wrath against us. Will you be angry with us forever, drag out your anger for all generations? Please give us life again, that your people may rejoice in you. Show us, LORD, your love; grant us your salvation. I will listen for the word of God; surely the LORD will proclaim peace To his people, to the faithful, to those who trust in him. Near indeed is salvation for the loyal; prosperity will fill our land. Love and truth will meet; justice and peace will kiss.
Truth will spring from the earth; justice will look down from heaven. The LORD will surely grant abundance; our land will yield its increase. Prosperity will march before the Lord, and good fortune will follow behind.

Small, bright, excellent battery life
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The battery life on this thing is incredible. I've accidentally left it on overnight a few times and still haven't had to change them even after months of continued use.
The light is small and bright for its size. Definitely my favorite so far.
Perfect Compact Light
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The elastic rubber band fits great on any seat stem, the switch integrated into the front lens (just push or push and hold down the front lens) is perfect to avoid having an actual switch on the light, and the light itself has an always on function as well as a pulsing function. This is the perfect bike light for your evening visibility and riding needs!
Does the job
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Works well. Seems a little cheaply made but can not expect much for the price
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This is exactly what I wanted in a light. I wanted something simple to operate that doesn't have a lithium-ion battery and won't break the bank. This has delivered and I like how you can either strap it or clip it to your bike.
Light easy to use
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
It is light and easy to use, but it feels cheep. Holding my breath while using it in the rain....
UPDATE--I had a 3-hour ride in heavy rain. Light still works great!
Great little light for the price
The battery is still going after over a year of use. It's not the brightest little light but it certainly gets the job done.
Its a light
I added this to my seat post to increase visibility when riding at night. Easy to attach, easy to turn on and change mode, easy to see at night. Cant ask for much else
Small form factor
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Great size with good finishing. Have these for almost a year now without having to change the battery ( used at least twice a week)
Anodized orange is a cool color for riders looking for some contrast under the saddle.
be seen, be safe
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Extremely fast and easy to pop on or off of your bike/gear. Will fit on any bicycle bar/post I've never used the belt clip. Enough light to let you be seen. No problems whatsoever. I would recommend and/or buy again.
Great little light, great price
This little guy puts out a great red warning to drivers with its various flashing modes. It's crazy how bright it is for being so little and inexpensive. Its size and shape look sleek on the bike. My one complaint would be that the red one I ordered is more of a pink color, so I just went with the black
Simple and Effective
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This light is a super simple design, I have both the front and rear and I couldn't be happier. At a price that doesn't break the bank you get a light that has 5 settings. At only 7 lumens it doesn't put out a ton of light but it does allow you to be seen. A great economical choice for lighting up your bar bike.
Matthew Pizza
Expert Gearhead
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This light attaches and detaches with a durable elastic band, and the battery lasts a long time. I've had it a couple months and used it multiple times a week, and the light still shines bright, on all three settings.
Simple is better
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Attach in 20 seconds with no tools, super compact, and does its job. I love how small it is and that it comes in different colors. Plus it just works!
Quality and Value
It does what it needs to do. This light has a super easy attachment method, which is great. It is small and light but still produces enough light for you to be seen. This isn't a top of the line bike light, but for the price I would say it is a solid investment for some nighttime cruising.
Bright, small, simple, lightweight
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great LED bike light. Rubber stretchy thing just hitches onto your seat post. Push the light and it turns on. Pretty handy.
Car's dont hit me
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this light because biking in the city is sketchy! So far nobody has hit me so I guess it has been a success. This light strobes in different sequences or stays bright red. I recommend it!

The clip on the back of the light is chamfered to get the light closer to horizontal when mounted on the seatpost.

Commuting and Training Light
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I recently got the rear light and it has been awesome. It is easily to turn on and off while riding, and also very easy to remove from my seatpost to a backpack. I like it for my evening commutes to the store or the bar, but it also is great for those foggy gloomy training days in the mountains. It keeps me visible and gives me great piece of mind.
a great light for the everyday commuter
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
this light has separate functions depending on how fast you'd like it to blink, and the battery lasts a long time. it's bright enough for cars to see you from a good distance, and it turns on and off easily. no hassle, highly recommended!

Network based buffer overflow detection by exploit code analysis
Andersson, Stig, Clark, Andrew, & Mohay, George (2004) Network based buffer overflow detection by exploit code analysis. In Mohay, George M., Clark, Andrew J., & Kerr, Kathryn (Eds.) AusCERT Asia Pacific Information Technology Security Conference: R&D Stream, 23-27 May 2004, Gold Coast, Australia.
|Published Version (PDF 72kB)
Buffer overflow attacks continue to be a major security problem and detecting attacks of this nature is therefore crucial to network security. Signature based network based intrusion detection systems (NIDS) compare network traffic to signatures modelling suspicious or attack traffic to detect network attacks. Since detection is based on pattern matching, a signature modelling the attack must exist for the NIDS to detect it, and it is therefore only capable of detecting known attacks. This paper proposes a method to detect buffer overflow attacks by parsing the payload of network packets in search of shellcode which is the remotely executable component of a buffer overflow attack. By analysing the shellcode it is possible to determine which system calls the exploit uses, and hence the operation of the exploit. Current NIDS-based buffer overflow detection techniques mainly rely upon specific signatures for each new attack. Our approach is able to detect previously unseen buffer overflow attacks, in addition to existing ones, without the need for specific signatures for each new attack. The method has been implemented and tested for buffer overflow attacks on Linux on the Intel x86 architecture using the Snort NIDS.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Brandon Jennings hit a three from the top of the key to give the Bucks a two point advantage with 20 seconds to play, and they would hold on the beat the Celtics, 91-88.
Paul Pierce missed two potential game tying shots in the final 20 seconds of regulation and led the Celtics with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists.
Kevin Garnett was whistled for a questionable illegal screen on a Jason Terry drive to the basket late in the fourth that would set up Jennings' heroic shot. Garnett finished with 17 points and 7 rebounds.
The Celtics opened with a 17-0 lead to start the game. The Bucks stormed back with a 36 point second quarter to cut the Celtics lead to one at the half. The Bucks took their first lead of the game on the first possession of the second half.
The Celtics had no answer for the energy and hustle of Larry Sanders, who scored 18 points, grabbed 16 rebounds, blocked 5 shots and assisted Jennings' three. Monta Ellis recorded 17 points and 7 assists for a Bucks team that had lost 5 of their last 6 games after opening the season 6-2.
Terry, filling in for the suspended Rajon Rondo, filled up the box score like Rondo with 15 points, 11 assists and 3 steals.
If their is a silver lining to the Rondo suspension it's that Courtney Lee and Jeff Green seemed to have found a rhythm offensively. Green scored 18 points and Lee added 13 while the duo combined to shoot a blistering 14-for-22 from the field. Hopefully the two can continue their hot shooting when their point guard returns.
Former Celtic Maquis Daniels got the start for the Bucks in place of an injured Mike Dunleavy. Daniels scored 8 points, dished out 5 assists and played some tough defense on his former teammate, Pierce. Pierce shot just 6-for-16 with Daniels on him most of the game.
The Celtics will head home to face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday as Rondo returns from his two game suspension.

Campaign brochure issued in behalf of Senator Joseph R. McCarthy during his successful campaign for the U.S. Senate in 1944. The text stressed his status as a Marine officer among his qualifications for office. McCarthy was defeated in the primary by Senator Alexander Wiley who was reelected in the general election. McCarthy continued to play on his status as a Marine officer throughout his career. In 1952 he was introduced to the Republican convention as the "fighting Marine" from Wisconsin and he was escorted to the podium to the Marine Hymn.

Recruit more Downsizers. Share this with others.
Quote of the Day:
"Inflation is the fiscal complement of statism." -- Ludwig von Mises, "The Theory of Money and Credit"
Subject: Protect Your Money
The price of gold moved above $900 an ounce this morning. It has been rising steadily. So have the prices for the goods and services you need to survive. These things are related.
When the Federal Reserve increases the number of dollars in circulation each dollar you earn buys less. Each dollar you've saved is also worth less. As the value of the dollar falls people look for some place to store their wealth that will hold its value. The last refuge in such times is gold.
Look at the price of oil over the last 10 years. According to the Wall Street Journal oil has risen 350% in terms of dollars, and 200% in terms of Euros, but it has stayed completely flat in terms of gold. This would seem to indicate that if gold were money the price of a tank of gas wouldn't have risen at all.
The Fed's inflation of the money supply is one of the main reason gasoline costs more. Fed inflation has also wrecked the housing market, and now threatens to wreck the entire economy. How does the Fed respond to the mess it has made? It wants to inflate the money supply even more.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has already promised more interest rate cuts. This is one of the Fed's mechanisms for inflating the money supply.
And Herb Greenberg at MarketWatch (owned by DowJones) thinks the Bank of America buyout of CountryWide is backed by Federal Reserve guarantees.
Meanwhile, the politicians want to spend more of your money. Hillary Clinton is proposing to spend $37 million to help people with their energy bills, $30 billion to help sub-prime homeowners avoid foreclosure, $10 billion to extend unemployment insurance, and $5 billion to invest in alternative energy programs.
All of this money will come out of your pocket. Much of it will really go to corporate welfare. And all of it will contribute to the government's looming bankruptcy.
Depending on who is doing the counting, the government already faces between $50 trillion and $90 trillion in future bills it has no way to pay. But our politicians, and much of the electorate, continues to whistle past the graveyard, promising more and more spending, and huge new entitlements such as national health care.
Moody's credit rating service is looking at the accounting on the wall and is already threatening to lower the U.S. government's credit rating.
Someone must stop the madness. Who will step forward to do what must be done? Will you?
We need more Downsizers to help us educate more and more people, and put more and more pressure on Congress. Please share this message with others and ask them to join DownsizeDC.org by sending a message to Congress.
What message should they send? What message should you send? Ask Congress to pass the "Honest Money Act," which will end the Federal Reserve's monopoly over the money supply.
Use you personal comments to mention any of the above facts as justification for passing the Honest Money Act.
You can send your message here.
Also, consider making a contribution to further our work. You can do so here.

Scicluna's passion and humour recalled by law contemporaries
Mgr Charles Scicluna loved law almost as much as he loved religion and his University contemporaries instantly recall his passion of both subjects.
Lawyer Max Ganado always saw Mgr Scicluna as a man with a big vision,honour and a great sense of humour. They first met as first-year law students.
"There were elections for a student organisation and he put forward his name, to serve. He gave this rousing speech, peppered with Latin statements, and had us in fits of laughter."
Dr Ganado says this was a time of "destructive oppression" in Malta, but Mgr Scicluna spoke about unity with an idealism shared by many at the time.
"Our life choices then brought us face to face with realities we never imagined we would encounter, especially Mgr Scicluna, as he had to deal with serious breaches of trust; lapses of human nature, which most of us do not have to deal with in our professional lives. They could not but have had an enormous impact on his morale, but thankfully he has deep resources of knowledge and faith to rely on."
Dr Ganado recalls Mgr Scicluna's love of Roman law, which he hopes to be able to tap into now that he was back from Rome.
"I sought his help when I was asked to draft legislation on foundations, for by then he had become an expert in canon law, which projects a lot of Roman law into a more modern context. Unfortunately, he was whisked away to Rome and I missed the benefit of his sharp analysis."
Dr Ganado recalls meeting Mgr Scicluna in Rome more recently, where the two had the pleasure of discussing controversial issues.
"His style is open. He listens and makes his point without offending anyone making an opposing point, dropping subtle hints on what a considered view could be, opening up options for the persons he is speaking to, without the need to impose... sowing a seed and letting the plant grow."
"We lack this system of discourse and debate so badly in present day Malta and I have no doubt he will have a positive effect," he says, looking forward to his guidance, inspiration and insights in this world of "confused sounds and actions all around us".
Lawyer Edward DeBono also remembers Mgr Scicluna, who, "despite his small stature was a towering rock of faith, honesty and integrity" since his student days.
Mgr Scicluna always had a kind word for everyone and used to relate well with students. He always enjoyed a good laugh but was never rude.
One thing that impressed Dr DeBono was the fact that he decided to pursue his vocation after his first year of law.
"Being a man of no half measures and never to be considered a failure, he wanted to pursue his legal studies contemporaneously with his seminary studies," Dr DeBono says, recalling how Mgr Scicluna made it a point to finish his legal studies, which must have helped him in the difficult work he undertook at the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
"He always had a fine legal brain but I believe that his love for the Church surpassed his love for law. His quest for law and order manifested itself in his role at the Vatican and he proved to be a true witness of Christ, the Gospel and the Church in his role as chief investigator of clergy abuse," says Dr DeBono, hoping that one day he would be appointed Archbishop on the way to be given the Cardinal's hat at an age when he can still vote in a future Conclave.

Public Policy Institute of California Fee increase at California community colleges over time
A new report by the Public Policy Institute of California examines how nearly $1.5 billion in budget cuts in recent years has limited access to the state's community college system.
I asked California Watch's higher education reporter, Erica Perez, to help break down what the changes mean for the 2.4 million students who attend community colleges. Below are excerpts of our conversation.
California community colleges have experienced a cut of nearly $1.5 billion between 2007-08 and 2011-12.
The Public Policy Institute of California report states: "Student enrollment rates in California's community colleges have dropped to a 20-year low in the wake of unprecedented cuts in state funding. Colleges have reduced staff, cut courses, and increased class sizes – all of which have led to declines in student access."
According to a recent California Watch report, fees have risen 130 percent in the past five years, and students are unable to get into the classes they need.
Public Policy Institute of California Changes in student enrollment at California community colleges over time
Community college enrollment rates in California are at an all-time low.
Community colleges have cut classes, instructors and other resources, meaning fewer students are able to enroll.
Despite budget cuts, more community college students are transferring to four-year colleges.
"The increases are modest (only a percentage or two), but they suggest that budget cuts have not hurt student transfer rates," the report says.
The mission of community colleges has changed.
The traditional mission of community colleges is providing access to state residents who have a high school diploma or have shown an ability to benefit from education. The reality now is not everyone who wants to take a class at a community college can.
Are community colleges "rationing" education?
Perez explained that some community college leaders describe it this way: "If we only have a limited amount of spots, then we should give it to the people who benefit the most."
The community college mission is increasingly focused on students who want to transfer to four-year colleges or who want to get associate degrees and certificates as opposed to those who want to take classes for enrichment or who don't have as firm an academic plan.
Who are the changes hurting most? Who is getting shut out?
Several types of students are getting pushed out: those looking to enrich themselves by taking an aerobics or music class, first-time students, those who are fresh out of high school and those trying to return later in life to get an education.
Community colleges have fewer resources to help students navigate the system.
As resources have been cut, community colleges have less capacity to help students who have not established an academic plan. Community colleges now have fewer counselors and less flexibility to spend one-on-one time helping students through the system.
Lauren Rabaino/California Watch
Consolidating community colleges could help cut costs, but that entails a complicated political process.
A recent California Watch investigation found that community colleges could save millions of dollars if they got rid of duplicative administrative costs. But doing so requires a political process that needs to be approved by the local boards of trustees – a move that could put some of those board members out of a job. Even after rounds of approval, it would take two years to lay off administrators, which means the cost savings would not be immediate.
This California Watch infographic explains the costs and complications.
Wasn't Proposition 30 supposed to fix budget problems for community colleges?
Prop. 30 provided additional funding, but it didn't make up for the budget shortfall. Some districts were worried that they'd face financial ruin if Prop. 30 didn't pass. For other districts in better shape, Prop. 30 helped but didn't make up the gap in funding.
What are other solutions?
Several studies show community colleges are missing out on millions of dollars of federal funding. Students eligible for a waiver of the $46-per-unit fee at community colleges could in theory qualify for federal financial aid. By changing these requirements, they could bring in federal dollars and spend them at community colleges, which would mean that instead of the state paying, the federal government would pay.
More students are attending for-profit colleges.
Although difficult to track, some students who can't get into community colleges go to for-profit colleges, which are adept at attracting them via online marketing. Despite much higher tuition, students usually are eligible for federal financial aid, loans and grants. However, once they leave the school, they are saddled with tens of thousands of dollars in debt.
How should California's community colleges handle future enrollment? Share your views below:

Marginalising practices of mathematics: why young people opt out of school mathematics
McMahon, Bronwyn F. (2001) Marginalising practices of mathematics: why young people opt out of school mathematics. In Mathematics in Society, Copenhagen, Denmark.
|PDF (75kB)
In developing an understanding of the potential of school mathematics as a marginalising practice, this paper draws on several issues which would seem to be important when considering why young people are opting out of school mathematics and ultimately school. Drawing on Australian and international literature this paper proposes that issues of pacing, the speed of content delivery and the linear discipline of mathematics have potential to marginalise young people. These issues coupled with classroom ethos give further weight to the contention of this paper that school mathematics acts as a social filter thereby reproducing (in most cases) the status quo. Classroom ethos has considerable potential for supporting or denying students access to learning. This is further evident in the assessment practices of school mathematics which verify notions of ability so that young people come to believe that they can or can not do mathematics. In light of these issues the key question for my research is – who is most likely to be the victim of the marginalising practices of school mathematics? Through the mathematics curriculum whose knowledge, culture and language are represented and how does this accord with young people as they progress through school, the workplace and society?
