Zero Tolerance During the Holidays
The end of 2012 has brought a new sense of urgency for Georgia besides battling the Christmas shopping crowds and making New Year's resolutions. For the first time in 6 years, Georgia is on track to experience an increase in traffic fatalities.
The Governor's Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) is adding a special message to its normal enforcement campaign this time of year. In addition to reminding Georgia motorists that if they don't drive sober, they'll get pulled over, GOHS has also launched Operation Safe Holidays to ask our drivers to be extra careful on Georgia roads so the state doesn't reach a 6-year milestone of traffic deaths.
The holiday season isn't just dangerous in Georgia. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that 2,597 people were killed in traffic crashes across the country in December 2010. 775 of them were in crashes involving alcohol-impaired drivers.
Drunk driving can also create a tremendous financial burden. The average cost of a DUI can climb to nearly $10,000. DUI's are a drain on the state's resources, the offender's resources and the resources of any potential victim.
Here are a few simple tips to get home safely if you plan to drink this holiday season:
- Plan a safe way home before the festivities begin;
- Before drinking, designate a sober driver and leave your keys at home;
- If you're impaired, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member, or use public transportation;
Georgia's annual holiday campaign of Operation Zero Tolerance begins on December 14th and will last through New Year's Day.

Take a look around you. Count three people. Stand back. Think. Statistically one of these three people will contract cancer. One of those three could be you.
And scarier still is that some 1,500 people die from cancer each day.
This Friday night at Chiefland High School, people dedicated to eliminating cancer and finding cures will come together to celebrate a year of fund-raising.
But the work doesn't stop there.

On America's Newsroom, Fox Business host Stuart Varney ignored key economic data in claiming that the December jobs report is proof of "a new normal, bumping along the bottom, settling for this high rate of unemployment, 7.8 percent."
Varney began the segment by warning that "you can spin it any which way, but the fact is, this is a weak report," and ended it by claiming that tax increases assure that high jobless rates are "the new normal."
But Varney's assertion is spin as well, based on a myopic reading of economic data -- Varney and other conservatives who proclaim high unemployment the "new normal" ignore three discrete piles of information that undermine their claim.
First, private-sector job creation in Obama's first term has far exceeded that fostered by the Bush recovery:
The above chart measures from the first full month of each man's presidency. Despite beginning in a deeper economic hole, the beginning of the Obama recovery was marked by a faster turnaround and stronger overall growth in the private sector. By another metric -- annual averages for private-sector job gains -- this "new normal" is also superior to Bush's old normal. This is true whether one counts their full terms in office, or just the years in which the private sector posted annual gains. And it is hardly evidence of a horrifying "new normal" of "bumping along the bottom" due to taxation.
Second, there's a broad consensus among economists that unemployment rates have remained elevated because aggregate demand -- that is, how many goods and services Americans are willing and able to buy -- has been depressed, and the government has not spent sufficiently to balance out the reduction. Varney acknowledged that demand is the key factor to economic growth, but only in the context of decrying tax increases. Varney warned of tax increases and "what [they do] to spending power in our economy," but the America's Newsroom segment made no mention of what federal and state budget cuts have done to that same spending power.
This refusal to acknowledge the damaging economic impact of spending cuts in a time of slow but steady growth is closely related to the third piece of data ignored in Varney's "new normal" analysis:
This divergence between public- and private-sector job growth is anything but normal. Under Presidents Reagan, Bush, and Clinton, public-sector payrolls expanded, helping to lift the overall "spending power in our economy," as Varney put it. But for President Obama, whose efforts at stimulating aggregate demand have been either watered down or stonewalled, the public sector has contracted steadily.
If we are at risk of establishing a harmful "new normal" of any kind, it is one in which unnecessarily stringent short-term fiscal policy leads to forced public-sector layoffs in perpetuity. Varney and America's Newsroom had time to spin the jobs report in an anti-tax direction, but no time to mention the 13,000 public workers -- 11,500 of them teachers -- who were laid off in December.

CORONA, CA -- AVT Inc. said it received a Notice of Intent to Issue Reexamination Certificate from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office that indicates that several claims for its wireless vending technology were found patentable. The Corona, CA, developer of automated self-service retailing systems did not specify which claims.
The USPTO granted AVT a patent last June relating to a wireless system designed to manage a network of remote vending machines. AVT said immediately that it was exploring the patent's enforcement. | SEE STORY
The patent was then put under reexamination last fall.
AVT's technology employs graphical touchscreen user interfaces, which can include means for paying for items vended and a two-way wireless network to connect an enterprise control center with remote vending machines. The patent, which covers 19 claims, does not apply to wireless control of a single machine or to those networked by a DSL connection. | See Patent No. 8,191,779
AVT chief executive James Winsor said the company spent more than three years and a "significant amount of money" developing the technology included in its latest patent. "We will explore all options to monetize this significant patented technology," he stated. "We are aware of several other manufacturers that are now using our technology in violation of our patent, and we look forward to bringing them into compliance in a manner that brings the most value to our company and shareholders."

Work clean with one time use pads!
The FLEX PE14-2-150 1-Pad Polishing Kit lets you detail without fear of cross-contamination. The kit includes Lake Country 1-Pads, single-use foam pads. With the 1-Pad System, the backing plate is the star and the pads are made to be used and tossed. The FLEX PE14-2-150 1-Pad Polishing Kit is ideal for detailers who want the assurance of a clean pad every time.
The 1-Pad Polishing System consists of an ultra flexible, patented Tri-Density Backing Plate and a variety of bowl-shaped foam pads. Each 1-Pad uses 65% less material than most conventional foam pads. However, the system still provides plenty of cushioning. The Tri-Density Backing Plate is cushioned to provide the soft support needed, and it won't break down because the backing plate is not in direct contact with the paint.
The FLEX PE14-2-150 1-Pad Polishing Kit includes:
FLEX PE14-2-150 Rotary Polisher
The FLEX PE14-2-150 Rotary Polisher is built to minimize user fatigue with an ergonomic design and lightweight body. It weighs in at just 5.6 pounds! The front of the polisher is perfectly curved to fit the user's hand and coated in rubber for superior comfort. The spindle lock mechanism is located behind the hump you see above so you cannot accidentally press it. A new combination of planetary and bevel gears provides extreme noise reduction. The gears are hardened stainless steel for excellent durability. A powerful internal fan provides optimized airflow to cool the engine and transmission to prevent heat buildup in the polisher. The FLEX PE14-2-150 Rotary Polisher is powerful! It has a 1400 watt motor with a no-load speed range of 600-2100 rpm. The FLEX PE14-2-150 is capable of high speed compounding, but it also works smoothly when polishing at low speeds.
Tri-Density Rotary Backing Plate
This ultra flexible, cushioned backing plate makes it easy to transition from flat to vertical panels. You've never seen a backing plate bend like this one. The Tri-Density Backing Plate is specially designed to provide added cushioning to 1-Pads. It centers itself perfectly in each bowl-shaped 1-Pad.
3 quantity 1-Pad Orange Light Cutting Foam Pads
The orange pad is made of firm, high density foam for scratch and defect removal. Use this pad with polishes and swirl removers. It's a multi-purpose pad that will work on most light to moderate imperfections.
3 quantity 1-Pad White Polishing Foam Pads
The white pad is designed for the application of micro-fine polishes and cleaner waxes. This pad has very light cutting power so it is perfect for pre-wax cleaners.
3 quantity 1-Pad Black Finishing Foam Pads
The black pad's composition is firm enough to withstand added pressure during final finishing to remove buffer swirls. It has no cut and will apply thin, even coats of waxes, sealants, and glazes.
3 Microfiber Detailing Towels
Use these microfiber detailing cloths for drying, buffing, or as a finishing wipe down. Microfiber is designed to be light, strong, super-absorbent and quick drying. The fibers are non-abrasive, and are woven so tightly that it's absolutely lint free and extremely durable. Unbelievably, these ultra-tough fibers are engineered to absorb seven times their weight in moisture.
If you're tired of cleaning pads, the FLEX PE14-2-150 1-Pad Polishing Kit is made for you. This kit combines the exceptional performance of FLEX's most innovative rotary polisher with the convenience of Lake Country 1-Pad single use pads.

Among those who knew Monica Quan was Mike James, head coach of the Diamond Ranch High School girls basketball team.
"She was going to be a star," he said Thursday.
James was a head coach of the varsity basketball team at Walnut High School and coached her during her freshman and sophomore years there.
"The big thing with freshmen was they're scared and she had not fear," James said.
Authorities were searching for former LAPD officer Christopher Dorner in connection to the killings of Quan and 27-year-old Keith Lawrence. The couple was found shot to death in their car at Sunday night.
Quan's freshman year saw her as the only freshman on the team. There were a few sophomores and a few juniors but the team consisted primarily of seniors, he said.
She was had the ability to remain calm under pressure. During one game Walnut was playing against an Alhambra-based high school. Quan knew of number of students.
"Some of the fans were on her and it didn't bother her at all," James said.
Quan wasn't just a good basketball player she was also a a carrying person who was well liked by those who knew her.
"She never changed. She was always positive," said James who remained in contact with her as she went on to college and and became a coach herself.
After Quan became a coach James tried to get her to become a coach at Diamond Ranch.
In addition to her talent as an athlete Quan had something else.
"Monica was a student of the game," James said.
The ability to remain calm was something she carried into her coaching career.
"She had a very calm demeanor ... A lot of players need that," he said.
James and his Diamond Ranch coaching staff, which also knew or coached Quan, attended a vigil that was organized Monday night at Walnut High.
"Almost every kid who she played with was there," James said. "That shows me there is a bond and respect there."
"I feel so bad for her mom and her dad," he said. "She was everything to them."
Quan's parents were frequently at practice and they never missed a game.
The Quans had two children, Monica and an older son.

Sara & Nick
August 3
South Hero, Vermont
Q & A with the Bride:
1. What was the one thing about your venue that made you know it was the one?
Nick's family has owned a beautiful piece of land on Lake Champlain for over 40 years. Growing up, Nick spent nearly every summer there and once we met so did I. We have so many wonderful memories together and with our family at the lake house. We wanted to add our wedding memories to this special place as well.
2. Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?
1. We loved our beautiful and delicious wedding cake make by my aunt complete with cute cake toppers made by my good friend Randi.
2. We tied the Lumineer's song "Ho Hey" throughout our invites and wedding. We placed one bottle of red with a picture of Nick when he was little and one bottle of white with a picture of me when I was little with our favorite lyrics from the song.
3. We decided that in lieu of a unity candle that we would bring our family and friends together with a group reading. Everyone recited a promise to love and support us through all the days of our marriage. It was very special to feel so loved and supported by everyone we cared about most.
3. Give us the one moment in your wedding day you can't stop thinking about.
We closed our ceremony with a "reading" from one of our best friends. He read the lyrics to one of our favorite songs "Power of Love" by Huey Lewis. As people began to figure out what the reading was from, there were some smiles and an indication of the fun that was in store for the next few hours. After we kissed our DJ started playing "Power of Love" as we walked back down the aisle while our friends and family tossed rainbow jimmies. It was the perfect combination of heartfelt, hilarious, and fun. We loved it.

Tebow Time is off the clock.
Tim Tebow was waived by the Jets on Monday, the end of an unsuccessful one-season experiment in New York that had been expected for months.
"Unfortunately, things did not work out the way we all had hoped," coach Rex Ryan said in a statement by the team announcing the move.
The Heisman Trophy winner attempted just eight passes after his ballyhooed arrival in a surprising trade from the Denver Broncos in March 2012. He threw for 39 yards and rushed 32 times for 102 yards and stunningly had no touchdowns as a member of the Jets.
Meanwhile, starter Mark Sanchez struggled amid constant questions about Tebow's playing time, and still Tebow remained mostly on the sideline. The Jets and new general manager John Idzik drafted former West Virginia star Geno Smith in the second round of the NFL draft Friday, giving New York six quarterbacks on its roster and creating uncertainty about Sanchez's future as well.
Tebow arrived at the team's facility in Florham Park, N.J., on Monday morning and was told he had been cut.
Tebow took to Twitter a few hours later, citing a bible verse: "Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding," Tebow wrote, "in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."
Tebow led the Broncos to the playoffs in 2011, but became expendable when Denver signed Peyton Manning as a free agent. The popular backup quarterback was acquired by the Jets for a fourth-round draft pick and $1.5 million in salary. He was introduced at the Jets' facility to plenty of fanfare at a lavish news conference, with Tebow repeatedly saying he was "excited" to be in New York.
Bills, Colts make deal
The Bills and Colts have swapped linebackers, with Buffalo trading Kelvin Sheppard to Indianapolis in exchange for Jerry Hughes. Sheppard, a 2011 second-round pick from LSU had 138 tackles and two sacks in 31 games, including 24 starts, during his two seasons in Buffalo.
Hughes was the Colts' 2010 first-round draft pick from TCU. He's had 62 tackles and five sacks in 40 games, including seven starts. Buffalo's defense is in the midst of transition under new coach Doug Marrone and new coordinator Mike Pettine.

Tips for Parents – Ideas to Help Children Maintain a Healthy Weight
You've probably read about it in newspapers and seen it on the news: in the United States, the number of obese children and teens has continued to rise over the past two decades.1 You may wonder: Why are doctors and scientists troubled by this trend? And as parents or other concerned adults, you may also ask: What steps can we take to help prevent obesity in our children? This page provides answers to some of the questions you may have and provides you with resources to help you keep your family healthy.
Why is Childhood Obesity Considered a Health Problem?
Doctors and scientists are concerned about the rise of obesity in children and youth because obesity may lead to the following health problems:
Heart disease, caused by:
- high cholesterol and/or
- high blood pressure
- Type 2 diabetes
- Asthma
- Sleep apnea
- Social discrimination
Childhood obesity is associated with various health-related consequences. Obese children and adolescents may experience immediate health consequences and may be at risk for weight-related health problems in adulthood.
Psychosocial Risks
Some consequences of childhood and adolescent overweight are psychosocial. Obese children and adolescents are targets of early and systematic social discrimination.2 The psychological stress of social stigmatization can cause low self-esteem which, in turn, can hinder academic and social functioning, and persist into adulthood.3
Cardiovascular Disease Risks
Obese children and teens have been found to have risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), including high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, and abnormal glucose tolerance. In a population-based sample of 5- to 17-year-olds, almost 60% of overweight children had at least one CVD risk factor while 25 percent of overweight children had two or more CVD risk factors.2
Additional Health Risks
Less common health conditions associated with increased weight include asthma, hepatic steatosis, sleep apnea and Type 2 diabetes.
- Asthma is a disease of the lungs in which the airways become blocked or narrowed causing breathing difficulty. Studies have identified an association between childhood overweight and asthma.4, 5
- Hepatic steatosis is the fatty degeneration of the liver caused by a high concentration of liver enzymes. Weight reduction causes liver enzymes to normalize.2
- Sleep apnea is a less common complication of overweight for children and adolescents. Sleep apnea is a sleep-associated breathing disorder defined as the cessation of breathing during sleep that lasts for at least 10 seconds. Sleep apnea is characterized by loud snoring and labored breathing. During sleep apnea, oxygen levels in the blood can fall dramatically. One study estimated that sleep apnea occurs in about 7% of overweight children.6
- Type 2 diabetes is increasingly being reported among children and adolescents who are overweight.7 While diabetes and glucose intolerance, a precursor of diabetes, are common health effects of adult obesity, only in recent years has Type 2 diabetes begun to emerge as a health-related problem among children and adolescents. Onset of diabetes in children and adolescents can result in advanced complications such as CVD and kidney failure.8
In addition, studies have shown that obese children and teens are more likely to become obese as adults.9, 10
What Can I Do As a Parent or Guardian to Help Prevent Childhood Overweight and Obesity?
To help your child maintain a healthy weight, balance the calories your child consumes from foods and beverages with the calories your child uses through physical activity and normal growth.
Remember that the goal for overweight and obese children and teens is to reduce the rate of weight gain while allowing normal growth and development. Children and teens should NOT be placed on a weight reduction diet without the consultation of a health care provider.
Balancing Calories: Help Kids Develop Healthy Eating Habits
One part of balancing calories is to eat foods that provide adequate nutrition and an appropriate number of calories. You can help children learn to be aware of what they eat by developing healthy eating habits, looking for ways to make favorite dishes healthier, and reducing calorie-rich temptations.
Encourage healthy eating habits.
There's no great secret to healthy eating. To help your children and family develop healthy eating habits:
- Provide plenty of vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain products.
- Include low-fat or non-fat milk or dairy products.
- Choose lean meats, poultry, fish, lentils, and beans for protein.
- Serve reasonably-sized portions.
- Encourage your family to drink lots of water.
- Limit sugar-sweetened beverages.
- Limit consumption of sugar and saturated fat.
Remember that small changes every day can lead to a recipe for success!
For more information about nutrition, visit ChooseMyPlate.gov and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010.
Look for ways to make favorite dishes healthier.
The recipes that you may prepare regularly, and that your family enjoys, with just a few changes can be healthier and just as satisfying.
Remove calorie-rich temptations!
Although everything can be enjoyed in moderation, reducing the calorie-rich temptations of high-fat and high-sugar, or salty snacks can also help your children develop healthy eating habits. Instead only allow your children to eat them sometimes, so that they truly will be treats! Here are examples of easy-to-prepare, low-fat and low-sugar treats that are 100 calories or less:
- A medium-size apple
- A medium-size banana
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup grapes
- 1 cup carrots, broccoli, or bell peppers with 2 tbsp. hummus
Balancing Calories: Help Kids Stay Active
Another part of balancing calories is to engage in an appropriate amount of physical activity and avoid too much sedentary time. In addition to being fun for children and teens, regular physical activity has many health benefits, including:
- Strengthening bones
- Decreasing blood pressure
- Reducing stress and anxiety
- Increasing self-esteem
- Helping with weight management
Help kids stay active.
Children and teens should participate in at least 60 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity most days of the week, preferably daily.11 Remember that children imitate adults. Start adding physical activity to your own daily routine and encourage your child to join you.
Some examples of moderate intensity physical activity include:
- Brisk walking
- Playing tag
- Jumping rope
- Playing soccer
- Swimming
- Dancing
Reduce sedentary time.
In addition to encouraging physical activity, help children avoid too much sedentary time. Although quiet time for reading and homework is fine, limit the time your children watch television, play video games, or surf the web to no more than 2 hours per day. Additionally, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) does not recommend television viewing for children age 2 or younger.12 Instead, encourage your children to find fun activities to do with family members or on their own that simply involve more activity.

Okay, now this is the post-postscript. It is hard to understand my difficulty. As far as I can remember I have always been reading and doing nothing, day in, day out, for almost half a century. Naturally, to select is almost an impossible task. But I have undertaken it during these sessions, so the responsibility is yours.
First, Martin Buber. I would not have been able to forgive myself if Martin Buber was not included. As a penance I include his two books: first, Tales of Hassidism. What D.T. Suzuki did for Zen, Buber has done for Hassidism. Both have done a tremendous service for seekers. But Suzuki became enlightened; sorry to say, Buber could not.
Buber was a great writer, philosopher, thinker, but all those things are toys to play with. Still, I pay my respects to him by including his name, because without him the world would not have even known the word Hassid.
Buber was born into a Hassidic family. From his very childhood he was raised among Hassids. It was in his very blood, bones, in his marrow, so when he relates it, it sounds so true, although he is only describing what he has heard, nothing more. He has heard correctly; that must be on record. Even to hear correctly is very difficult, and then to report to the world at large is even more difficult, but he has done it beautifully.
Suzuki is enlightened, Buber is not - but Suzuki is not a great writer, Buber is. Suzuki is an ordinary writer. Buber towers very high as far as the art of writing is concerned. But Suzuki knows, and Buber knows not; he is only relating the tradition in which he was brought up.of course, relating authentically.
Tales of Hassidism should be read by all seekers of truth. These tales, small stories, have such a flavor. It is different from Zen, it is also different from Sufism. It has its own flavor, unborrowed from anyone, uncopied, unimitated. The Hassid loves, laughs, dances. His religion is not of celibacy, but of celebration. That's why I find a bridge between my people and the Hassids. It is not accidental that so many Jews have come to me; otherwise, I am always shattering the heads of the Jews as much as I can.and still they know that I love them. I love the essential in Judaism, that is Hassidism. Moses had not heard of it of course, but he was a Hassid; whether he knew it or not does not matter. I declare him to be a Hassid - and so I declare Buddha, Krishna, Nanak and Mohammed. Hassidism came after Baal Shem. The word does not matter, the spirit matters.
Martin Buber's second book, I and Thou, is his most famous work, the book for which he was given the Nobel prize. Forgive me, but I disagree with it completely. I mention it because it is a beautiful work, written artistically, with great profundity and sincerity. But still there is no soul in it, because the soul was missing in Buber himself. How could the poor man manage to bring it into his book, his masterpiece?

Libertarian running for governor
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WTVN) -- The race for Ohio governor is getting another name and it could have a major impact.
Charlie Earl is running on the Libertarian Party ticket. The former Republican state representative doesn't see himself as a spoiler, but a vote for him could send a message to both major political parties.
"This is the perfect time to split the vote and go for liberty and teach the GOP to quit taking the tea party people, the conservative, and the libertarian and liberty-oriented people of their party for granted," he said.
He also expects to get support from Democrats who feel their party has gone too far to the left.
Medicaid expansion could be a major factor in the 2014 race, especially if it's on the ballot. Gov. John Kasich has seen opposition from many within his own party over the issue. Democrat Ed FitzGerald is also a supporter. Earl calls it an "end around on Obamacare." He says Kasich's approach on the issue flies in the face of the desires of most Ohioans.
"He's almost being Obama-like in the sense of the 'my way or the highway' type of attitude that he's taking on this and I think the people resent it," Earl said.
Earl also believes that it's time for Ohio to quit being so dependent on the federal government. He says Washington isn't making decisions that are in the best interest of Ohio.
Another potentially big topic in 2014 could be same-sex marriage. While Earl says he's personally not a backer of the idea he doesn't believe it's a decision that should be made by the government.
"I don't want the government to do it and I don't want Charlie Earl to be setting firm, established law," he said.
Earl is a backer of legalization of marijuana.
He served in the Ohio House from 1981 to 1984 and spent time on Capitol Square with current House Speaker Bill Batchelder, Gov. John Kasich, Attorney General Mike DeWine, and U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown.
"These people and people like them, that are nice people and I'd love to have dinner with them and so-forth, have been in charge of state government for 30 years and our situation hasn't improved it's gotten worse," he said.

Question and possible request tied into another request I made for the XBMC dev's at:
In a nutshell this has to do with displaying ones movies which are academy award winners or another list of them which are in the IMDB Top 250. JMarshall was kind enough to show a way in which a smart playlist could be created to show IMDB Top 250 but as good as that is it's buried in the playlist area. And while academy award winners are not currently scraped I'd be willing to submit a ticket to request this as the data is on IMDB.
My question xb2iris is this. If both the academy award movie winners and the IMDB Top 250 data is available, is this something that can be added to the Library Sort menu, where sort by Name, Rating, Genre, etc. is? On the Sapphire plugin this was a really cool feature and blew people away when I would show them. Another way for Horizonz to differentiate themselves from others!
Thx and keep up the good work!

Geithner Takes Lead in 'Much Ado About Nothing'Caroline Baum
April 19 (Bloomberg) -- What if the Bureau of Labor Statistics had reported a 220,000 increase in March nonfarm jobs two weeks ago instead of 120,000?
Simple. We would have been spared a lot of market volatility, political grandstanding, I-told-you-sos and speculation that, like 2010 and 2011, solid job growth early in the year would peter out by summer.
Not to mention that there isn't a heck of a lot of difference between 120,000 and 220,000. If you don't believe me, listen to the statisticians.
Every month, the BLS includes a technical note with the employment report -- too bad so few people read it -- explaining that the "confidence interval" for the change in total nonfarm employment from the establishment survey is on the order of plus or minus 100,000.
Translation: From a statistical point of view, an increase of 120,000, 220,000 or 20,000 is pretty much the same. But oh what a difference it makes in our world of snapshot analysis!
In a labor force of about 155 million, 100,000 is a rounding error. It's also a net change, offsetting the millions of workers who are hired each month with those who are fired or quit. The BLS's monthly JOLTs report (Job Openings and Labor Turnover) details the high degree of churning in the U.S. labor market. During the 12 months ended in February, for example, 50.6 million people were hired while 48.6 million left their jobs for a net employment gain of 2 million.
Safety in Numbers?
This isn't to denigrate the work of the civil servants at the statistical agencies. As someone who spent a day with a BLS employee on her rounds checking prices for the monthly consumer price index, I can testify that there is a method to the madness.
But the numbers have a lot of noise. Warm winter weather can turn a few construction hires in February into a seasonally adjusted boom. It also depresses industrial production through reduced output of natural gas and electricity (utilities are part of industrial production). The timing of Easter, a moveable feast, may shift retail sales from March to April or vice versa. An early or late payroll survey week may distort employment gains or losses. Holidays may shift first-time filings for unemployment benefits from one week to the next.
These are the vagaries of economic data. What's so striking, and depressing, is the reaction. Short of true shocks that ripple through the financial system, a $15 trillion economy doesn't turn on a dime. Businesses don't start hiring one month, only to get cold feet the next. And consumers don't open their wallets and immediately shut them -- unfortunately, in cases where they are empty.
The hyperventilating over the March employment report is really much ado about nothing. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said as much when he was dispatched to the Sunday morning talk shows -- not on April 8 but on April 15, nine days after the employment report was released -- to try and quell the angst. He told the various network anchors that the U.S. economy is gradually getting stronger. No, it's not good enough yet. And yes, there are challenges and risks ahead. But the preponderance of evidence from employment, exports, agriculture, manufacturing, energy, high-tech, and business and consumer confidence, suggests a gradually improving trend.
Deep-Breathing Exercise
He's right. Take a step back, take a deep breath and look at the big picture. Recoveries from financial crises, such as the one the U.S. experienced, are different, we learned from economists Ken Rogoff and Carmen Reinhart. They are more protracted, on average, with some metrics, such as employment and house prices, still depressed as much as a decade after the crisis erupted.
The government can't wave a magic wand and make things better quickly, try as it might. That's why the true legacy of financial crises, according to the authors, is a boatload of government debt. And Washington is doing nothing to alleviate it.
Everyone, both Republicans and Democrats, agrees we need fundamental tax reform that would lower the rates and broaden the base. Where's the legislation to implement it?
Congress crafts bills (see health care) and budgets to comply with a 10-year window, with the goodies front-loaded and the pain to-be-delivered sometime in the future.
The future is now. Yet somehow it's never a good time to make the hard choices to put spending on a sustainable path in relationship to revenue. It's never a good time to let the Bush tax cuts expire (the economy is too fragile). It's never a good time to do away with tax breaks and deductions, such as the one for mortgage interest (the housing market is too weak) or charitable contributions (charities are still hurting from the recession).

Post subject: 3-0 Is Great But Keep It In Perspective
Obviously, there's a ton of optimism around this team right now. We're 3-0 for the first time in 38 years. We're getting talk from all the major NFL analysts, Dan Bickley just wrote a piece about how "Red Bird Fever" is taking over the Valley again and Ron Jaworski just listed us as the 3rd best team in the league. While all of that is amazing to hear and amazing to witness/experience after all the predictions of our demise, we simply MUST keep this into perspective. 3-0 is just 3 wins. Not 12, not 13, 3. We're not in the playoffs, we're not in the Super Bowl. We have 3 wins. We've got a quarterback who still misses throws, we've got 1 back who's put the ball on the ground twice in crucial situations and another back who may be on the shelf for the next few weeks. Our OL cannot open holes for our backs on an even halfway consistent basis. Our special teams while good thus far has also cost us 7 points (Huge return by Leon Washington to set up a 10 yard scoring "drive") in a game we won 4. We're a missed field goal away from being 2-1. We are NOT perfect and we are NOT where we want to be as a team. We've got lots of work left to do and I hope our coaches preach that to our players. 3-0 is just 3 wins.
in 2011, the Buffalo Bills started the season 3-0 with a win against the New England Patriots (Sounds familiar). They finished the year with just 6 wins and a top 10 NFL Draft Pick. WE'VE STILL GOT WORK TO DO!!!

We are a dropped pass and a missed field goal away from 1-2. This offense still fails to take drives past three plays too often, and leaves our defense on the field for long stretchs (See the 2nd half on Sunday).
This team is 3-0 celebrate the fact we are 3-0, but there are still 13 games left this season, this season could end 3-13.

I agree, the best way to keep this thing rolling is to not get overly excited by a win, and also, not to get upset by a loss...one game at a time is the way to go.
however, this team is playing with more heart and passion then I have ever seen. eventually we will lose a game, but I do believe that this team has the heart to bounce back after a loss.

I won't be happy until the team gets back to the playoffs. The last 2 years has been tough. I am predicting that 9 or maybe 10 wins is whats needed for that to happen. Still alot of football needs to be played before I am happy.

I'm old enough to remember numerous better starts than 3-0 that faded.
So I'm cautiously optimistic myself, but common, we look damn good.
The issue with our team though is we have a few key stars that, heaven forbid anything happens, we'd be in a hole.
So 3-0 isn't so much as a nice start, it's a healthy start. We can only hope it stays that way.

"Just a bruise"
He's probably 50/50 on playing this week. If I had to guess? Daniel Thomas will start and him and Miller will split carries.

Post subject: 5 ups/5 downs vs Bucs
5 uppers:
1. Rg3. He continues to be everything we thought he was!
2. Alfred Morris. Congrats on his 1st 100 yard rushing game
3.Ryan Kerrigan had an amazing game. He was all overtone place and had a sack.
4. FredDavis had another big game
5. Cundiff on the game winning FG
5 Downers
1. Cundiff missing a makeable 41 and 31 yarder that would have put the game out of reach
2. The pass D got tourched in the second half again
3. Not running the clock out when we had the lead
4 and 5. Meriweather and Robinson taking each other out of the game in a collision before the game even started

5 Ups:
1. RG3. 'nuff said.
2. Holy 2 minute offense! Where was this the last... oh, 10 years?
3. Welcome back, Pierre! We're 2-0 with you, and 0-2 without. Coincidence? I doubt it.
4. Ryan Kerrigan, as you said, turtle, played very well!
5. Hank time! A team-high 7 catches! Very impressive!
5 Downs
1. Billy MF'ing Cundiff. 'nuff said.
2. Pass defense... Ugh.
3. The 4th quarter/pretty much the entire second half. I don't get it! I guess we peak in the first half, which isn't a good thing.
4. Our return game. Where is it?
5. Let's not let up any 15+ point leads please! Please? Please????

5 Ups/5 Downs (from a Bucs Fan Perspective)
5 Ups
-Morris also is the only player to rush for over 100 yards against the Bucs this season. (that includes DeAngelo Williams, Cam Newton, Andre Brown, Demarco Murray)
-Griffin is an absolute stud he goes through progressions excellently and has some of the most amazing pocket presence that I have seen from a rookie QB in a while
- When Healthy it is clear as day you have one of the top pass rushes in the NFL
-Brandon Banks is a gamechanger in the punt and kick return game
-Your O-line actually did a great job of keeping Griffin clean ( I think that had more to do with the Bucs inability pressure off the edge)
5 Down
-Why the hell are you running the option with your franchise QB, I hope for you sake that against the Cowboys and Giants or you will be seeing a lot more of Kirk Cousins then you want to see.
-Why did Hasslet let off the blitz in the second half? Starting looking like the Bucs playing not to lose (Keep the foot on the petal)
-Billy Cundiff aka the reason why we were still in the game
-Merriweather before the game, that shows that your safeties are observing the field (haha bad joke but I mean in the words of Chris Carter "come on man!")
-What is the deal with your secondary, after looking solid in the early quarters it seemed as though they had a mental lapse of Buccaneers proportions in the 3rd and 4th quarters
Overall Great game good luck the rest of the year. I was a HUGE fan of Robert Griffin going back to his Freshman year at Baylor when he took over for Kirby Freeman, and it is amazing to see how much he has transitioned from a small known QB to the (hopefully) Future star in this league. And I'm crazy jealous that you have him.

All my faith in Cundiff being reliable is gone. It'll be like No-No Gano now.. Expected him to miss and pray he makes it.
They may be calling kickers in this week.. I know it's not true but always seems ever team Except us ,,, has a steady good kicker .. Just think--18 point swing. Our kickers misses 3, their kicker makes 3.. Damn !

S/O to the big man and captain of this team, TRENT WILLIAMS! He played absolutely terrific for the injury he went though! Hero of the game! We don't win this game with Jordan Black in there at LT. Great game for Alfred Morris, too, sooo glad I grabbed him in my fantasy league...

He had a few good plays in the run game. As for the acl. 1) it does take a while to round back into form after such a serious injury. 2) he missed his rookie season last year so he's basically a rookie but not only that, he missed a year of football last year.
Jenkins can only get better and that's a great thing because his potential is that of the best DL in the nfl

FONTANA -- Police work is dangerous for K-9s too. Jaris, a 61/2-year-old Belgian Malinois, knows it well, and now police can only hope for the best for their canine co-worker.
He was taken to a veterinary specialist Monday after a wanted parolee threw him out of a second-story window on Sunday.
Jaris suffered a large gash to his head and was staggering before he was taken to a hospital.
Police said they're awaiting tests to determine if he suffered brain damage.
"This is a first," said Lt. Gary Aulis, head of the department's K-9 program. "Of the dogs injured in the line of duty, we've never had something even remotely like this happen. "
On Sunday, police came to the 9500 block of Mango Avenue about 12:30 p.m. in search of Bryan Bills, 28, of Fontana, who was listed as an armed and dangerous parolee.
A woman answered the door and said that no one else was in the house, but then officers heard noises coming from the second floor of the residence.
An officer standing outside saw Bills trying to climb out of an upstairs window.
He refused to surrender to officers, so police sent their dog, Jaris, into the home.
When Jaris ran toward Bills, Bills used the dog's momentum to throw the animal out of an open window. The dog fell on his head on the concrete below, police said.
Bills was arrested on suspicion of injuring a police dog, resisting an officer and violating parole. He was booked into West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
Jaris, who has worked for Fontana Police Department since 2008, has suffered minor bumps and bruises on the job - either from being struck by suspects or during searches.
"Most suspects can't just sit there when they're being bit by a dog," Aulis said. "They hit, kick, pull, whatever they can do to get the dog off of them. "
Now, the department is forced to wait and see whether Jaris will recover from the incident.
Aulis said the department is focused on the animal's health first, but he hopes to eventually return Jaris to duty if he is given a clean bill of health.
"Apparently it's very difficult to diagnose neurological injuries with a dog," said Fontana police Sgt. Robert Morris.

Google's Larry Page Talks Smack About Facebook, Apple
Tiffany Kaiser
January 18, 2013 12:00 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Google's Larry Page
In short, he said their products could be better
It's not uncommon for rivals to bash one another, so Google co-founder and CEO Larry Page took a couple of
jabs at Facebook and Apple
in a recent interview.
In an interview with
, Page discussed how he wants Google to come up with some "moon shots," or far-out ideas such as the company's self-driving vehicles that recently achieved 30,000 accident-free miles.
However, Page also took the opportunity to throw a few insults at rivals Facebook and Apple. Google's social network, Google+, has been working to gain the amount of users that Facebook has while Google's Android operating system
competes with Apple's iOS
While Page recognizes that Facebook is a heavyweight in the social arena, he said, "They're also doing a really bad job on their products … we're actually doing something different [from Facebook]. I think it's outrageous to say that there's only space for one company in these areas."
Page may be a little sore that Google, which launched in 2011, hasn't quite lived up to the hype of it potentially being a Facebook rival. There are currently 500 million registered users on Google+ and only about 125 million are active monthly (compared to Facebook's one billion monthly active users as of October 2012).
Rather than become a Facebook rival, though, it looks more like Google+ has become a product incorporated into Google's search.
In November of last year, Google's Vice President of Product Bradley Horowitz spoke with
Business Insider
about Google+, also
taking a jab at Facebook
. Specifically, he targeted the social network's use of advertisements, where they're forced into people's news feeds. He even went as far as comparing Facebook ads to a guy with a sandwich board popping in between a father and his daughter during an important conversation.
"We don't have to make next week's payroll by jamming ads at users," said Horowitz.
In the recent
interview, Page also had something to say about Apple's product practices. While Apple is another huge player in the mobile space, Page thinks its products are limited.
"You know, we always have these debates: we have all this money, we have all these people, why aren't we doing more stuff?" said Page. "You may say that Apple only does a very, very small number of things, and that's working pretty well for them. But I find that unsatisfying."
Earlier this week, it was reported that Google's Nexus 7 tablet market share was greater in Japan than Apple's iPad. Market research firm BCN conducted a survey in Japan last December, and out of 2,400 consumer electronics stores in Japan, the iPad had 40.1 percent of the market while
Google's Nexus 7
claimed 44.4 percent.

There was speculation recently that, in the face of Safari's integration into OS X, Opera Software would halt the development of Opera for the operating system. But, like Firefox, Opera 8 is advertised as a cross-platform solution, and so ignoring a large section of the userbase is unlikely.
Opera straddles the commercial and free sector but the company has recently announced the end of its advertsupported edition, which has been replaced by a completely free version. You will still be able to purchase support services for $29, however. This browser is also unique in this test group in that it integrates a whole suite of communication tools, including mail and news reading, within the main application.
Despite the loss of the advert bar, unobtrusive though it was, habitual Mac users and those raised on the clean simplicity of Firefox might balk at the nonstandard user interface Opera displays. It does keep everything to hand, though.
As with Safari and OmniWeb, the use of a non-standard web engine means that many sites "designed for Internet Explorer" will fail to load. And while the application does make it easy to change the User Agent String, it still exhibited problems with many of the banking sites we tested - mainly due to an issue with Cookies being rejected.
There are some nice touches to Opera - the top ten most visited list, mail, RSS and news integration, excellent theming - but many users may find it a minor pain to switch from the OS X way of working to the Opera way of working. The ads in the old free version weren't too intrusive, but they did add more visual clutter to an already very busy interface. Now they're gone there's one more reason to try Opera. If you desire an all-in-one solution, Opera is a good bet.

Towards Turkish-Islamic Union
Azerbaijan Novoye Vremya, 6 October 2008
Presenter: What would you say about the global crisis throughout the world?
Adnan Oktar: NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO TURKEY. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO TURKISH ISLAMIC COUNTRIES. ON THE CONTRARY, THERE WILL BE PROSPERITY AND ABUNDANCE IN THOSE PLACES. Here comes the age of abundance and prosperity Insha'Allah. By the leave of Allah we enter the Golden Age. Turkish countries will be happy, joyful and live in comfort. These crises are temporary indeed. They do not actually affect us but we of course do not want America be affected because of the crisis. We do not want the Christians to be in dire straits. We do our utmost regarding that Insha'Allah.
Baskent TV, 13 February 2009
Adnan Oktar: Of course the crisis has hit Turkey in a delayed way. That is true and it will continue to do so. But our people have a good aspect. Morality of Islam and the spirit of mutual cooperation are so pleasant. That brings an economic mobility in goods and money and it definitely will continue to bring them. Therefore THE REFLECTION OF THE CRISIS IS NOT AS SEVERE AS IN EUROPE. IT WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE SO. However, our actual salvation is by the Turkish–Islamic Union. In that case, forget the crisis, people will almost be uncomfortable due to prosperity.
Azernews, 23 October 2008
Adnan Oktar: TURKEY WILL BECOME THE GREAT TURKEY. I am not saying by ninety-nine percent; it is one hundred percent.It will be the leader of the Turkish-Islamic union. Within ten-twenty years, the entire world will see this. I am here and so you do. Everyone is here; by Allah's leave this is clear. There is no other way. This is the destiny of humanity, Insha'Allah. This will happen so.
