Israel's Foreign Minister has said his country will not accept a ceasefire from Palestinian militant groups unless the Palestinian Authority then dismantles them.
Raising the bar for peace, Silvan Shalom said a ceasefire without such agreement would merely allow the Islamic militant group Hamas to rebuild its armed wing and prepare new strikes.
The Palestinian Prime Minister, Mahmoud Abbas, visited the war-torn Gaza strip yesterday to try to persuade militant groups to agree to a hudna, or temporary Islamic truce.
But the US President, George Bush, said the world must "deal harshly" with Hamas, which he blames for the near-collapse of the "road map" to peace, while a prominent Republican senator has suggested US troops may have to go after them.
The Palestinian Information Minister, Nabil Amr, said he believed a six-month hudna would be agreed within 48 hours. But Mr Shalom told Israeli Army Radio terrorist groups' infrastructure must be dismantled.
As Egyptian mediators joined Mr Abbas in Gaza yesterday, there were reports that some senior Hamas figures were prepared to consider a truce despite Israeli attacks on their leaders last week.
In remarks interpreted as a possible movement in Israel's position, the Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, reportedly told a cabinet meeting that "if no one fires on us, we will not return fire, except in cases of ticking bombs".
But Israel's definition of ticking-bombs is broad, and was widened last week to an attempt to kill Abdel Aziz Rantisi, from Hamas's political wing.
Mr Bush has continued to blame Hamas for the near-collapse of the US-backed road map to peace, seeming to give a green light to Israel's continuing quest for a military solution to Palestinian attacks.
"The free world and those who love freedom and peace must deal harshly with Hamas and the killers," Mr Bush said when asked whether Israel was justified in recent attacks on Hamas. "That's just the way it is in the Middle East."
The US had criticised Israel for trying to assassinate Dr Rantisi last Tuesday, but trained its sights on Hamas after a suicide bombing in Jerusalem on Wednesday that killed 17 and wounded 100 and complaints from pro-Israel groups in the US.
Mr Bush said the US was helping the Palestinian Authority reconstitute a security force to take on Hamas, but declined to say whether Washington would provide arms or money.
Senator Richard Lugar, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, said: "Clearly, if force is required ultimately to root out terrorism, it is possible there would be American participation." Asked if that meant such troops would go after Hamas or other groups, he said: "That may be the conclusion."
But the White House spokesman, Ari Fleischer, last week seemed to rule out a role for US troops.
The road map envisages an end to Israel's occupation of the West Bank and Gaza in return for a halt to Palestinian violence. It aims to phase in a viable Palestinian state by the end of 2005.
Last week the Israeli Government dismantled 10 uninhabited outposts, but it emerged yesterday that the hardline Jewish settler movement has stealthily built five new ones.

TheRealRamoModel Male Teaneck, New Jersey, US
My Website: Official WebsiteMy MM URL: http://www.modelmayhem.com/TheRealRamo
Mayhem # 2621135
About MeOmar Keita was born on May 15, 1987 in Congo, Africa and raised in Teaneck, New Jersey. His mother and father, who were raised in poverty and received little to no education, fled Africa from the Ebola virus when he was only 2 months old to give their son a better life, Going by the Stage name Ramo, this up-and-coming rappers' desire in music started at the young age of 10 years old; Inspired by famous Rap artist such as Biggie Smalls & Lil Cease. With a little advice from the Rap Icon NOTORIOUS B.I.G himself, Ramo realized he had a lot of practicing to do in order to take his rapping to a higher level. When he was only 14 years old, the rapper found himself in an altercation which landed him some time behind bars and at that juncture he had to put his rap career on hold for a few years. Re-surfacing on the scene in 2005 at the age of 18, Ramo really began to focus on his dream. Mostly known for his freestyle "Introduction" Ramo has obtained the chance to be featured with others such as DJ Envy, DJ Big Mike, DJ Woogie, DJ Noodles, DJ Spanky, DJ Mano Com, DJ Scope, DJ Khaled, DJ Green Lantern, DJ Bedtyme 357 & DJ Young Cee and landed spots on several mixtapes. He went on to be featured on hip hop websites such as HipHopDX, ThisIs50 & DatPiff, as well as winning the opportunity in 2008 to be on 'Coast2Coast Mixtapes Presents: No Sleep Til NYC, which was played for Ebro (N.Y. Director of Hot 97.1) Which he gave Ramo's music "Two thumbs up" and he told him he would look out for him when he makes it into the industry. His past experiences have help mold Ramo into the artist he is today as he continues to master his craft, which is noticeable by the more in-depth subject matters he chooses to speak upon that separates him from most of his peers.
Words from the man himself Ramo:
Hey guys I go my the name Ramo. Well I just want to say I am a cool lay back dude who likes to have fun and enjoy life. I love working with anybody as long they are serious about their work. Right now I have a few projects coming up which will be major. But, in the meantime I am a people's person. If you nice to me I will be nice to you. And finally just because I work with you doesn't mean I'm here to hook up with you. A few so called "Models" who I try to work with feel that just because they get a few nice comments they assume that the whole world wants them. Well I'm sorry I'm not that person and I am professional and a business man. So come at me correct but, other then that let's work!

Avocado as Moisturizer
Lather avocado on dry, sun-exposed skin for a rush of moisture—make sure that your avocado fruit is fully ripe. We know some people who use the inside of the avocado skin for its moisturizing oils. To do so, rub the inner layers of the avocado peel against your face, leave on for 15 minutes, and then rinse off with warm water and pat dry.

Hello again,

 Having done few X11 driver experiments, I noticed an error log appearing in the PTY. Google says that:

 http://arkiv.freebsd.se/?ml=freebsd-i386&a=2008-05&m=7400145

 is a PR to the FreeBSD i915 driver (I've found out, my card uses it as well) reporting the error log - It seems there is no workaround, though...

Hello,

Reading your post, I have to complain a bit about running PC-Bsd on an older laptop...

As far as the filesystem is concerned, the ZFS was causing much trouble on my laptop (Fujitsu-Siemens E series Lifebook, P4 1.7GHz, 2GB DDR ram, ATA 60GB, Intel motherboard, integrated i855 graphics 1400x1050) - it used to crash while installing the system (I was trying to install it three times). So I have switched to UFS+Journaling and haven't observed the trouble any more.

However, the graphics causes a lot of trouble - the performance is very poor. Furthermore, the system used to crash while the _Intel_ driver was used by the X11. I'm going to fiddle with the X11 default _i810_ driver settings a bit now (CPU utilisation doesn't drop below 40% while "idle" running just few opened windows with all "extras" disabled: news reader, Opera, Konsole + top)...

On the other hand, the system was running for about 3 hours on a PC utilising a Core2Duo Cpu, a Nvidia 6600 pro (128MB) graphis and 2GB of DDR2 Ram on a 1280x1024 resolution with every little desktop "extra" switched on very smoothly - the Cpu utilisation has been low, too (up to 20% while "idle", depending on the windows count), frame-rates of the Plasma between 30-60fps with multiple transparent windows running simultaneously. It looked very nice, indeed.

I must say, the system looks really great on a "newer" hardware...

Regards,

milan

Dear Kris --

 This report concerns a PCBSD 7.0 Alpha 08082008 on a laptop computer
 running the Intel Centrino chipset, P4 1.5 Ghz, and Intel 82855 built
 in video. I had previously reported that the laptop had repeated
 freezes and reboots whenever I ran programs, especially Dolphin. This
 experience contrasted greatly with using the Alphas on a desktop which
 was stable. I am pleasantly surprised (after acting on your
 announcement that you would revert to the previous UFS file system in
 the next release) to report the entire laptop situation has improved
 after reinstalling the same Alpha using UFS +Softupdates as the file
 system instead of UFS +Journal.

 I have been running about four hours and have not crashed Dolphin,
 even though I have looked on other slices and some mega-sized
 directories. Both these functions were prone to crash Dolphin and
 cause a freeze or reboot. I've also surfed the web, searched Google
 and Google images. These activities were also prone to cause a freeze
 or reboot under a the UFS +journal file system. I've had up to six
 active programs running without even a hiccup.

 I am also pleased about performance, the ability to update ports and
 source using system administrator, and to install various software
 using ports.

 I had only one freeze when I clicked on four mpg video files and
 opened them simultaneously with Dragon. I'm currently installing
 Kaffeine to see if that cures the problem.

 In summary, I am happy that changing only the file system has made a
 huge improvement for the laptop and eliminated the critical problems I
 was having. Your instinct about the journaling file system was
 insightful.

Savona Restaurant Review: Savona has the low-lit, rosy, plant-filled ambience that so many restaurants strive for but don't quite achieve. It's an upscale destination, perfect for anyone celebrating a special occasion, well-heeled yuppies, and those who show interest in the 1,000-selection wine collection created by master sommelier Melissa Monosoff that emphasizes boutique producers and high-end reds. Ask about booking the private dining room in the cellar, which is atmospheric to say the least. Chef Andrew Masciangelo's cuisine is heavy on fruits of the sea, such as day boat sea scallops with caramelized cauliflower, pine nut gremolata and raisins. Masciangelo works with local farmers, embracing a farm-to-table philosophy that involves handling products as few times as possible to capture the natural flavor intensity of each ingredient. Prices are high across the board, so the budget-minded need not apply. Bar Savona, a less pricey alternative, offers a sexy patio and more straightforward food (pastas, wood-fired pizzas) reminiscent of the chef's Abruzzese roots.

Toronto city council is committing an illegal "hanging" of Mayor Rob Ford, and the mayor has the right to seek an immediate court-ordered halt to it, says his lawyer, George Rust-D'Eye.
"They are attempting to punish the mayor – it was kind of a symbolic hanging," Mr. Rust-D'Eye said in an interview. He was awaiting a meeting with the mayor to discuss whether to go ahead with a legal challenge.
If the mayor were to be granted a stay, he could regain the powers stripped from him this week for a period of several months while the issues are being heard in court.
The mayor could argue that he has been deprived of his ability to carry out his duties under the City of Toronto Act, and that the procedure was unfair because he was not given notice ahead of time and city staff made no attempt to investigate his behaviour, make recommendations or explain the implications of what council was doing, he said.
"I was at the five-hour council meeting [on Monday]. At the start of the meeting at 12:30, a new notice of motion had been placed on all the councillors' desks. I wasn't aware of it. The mayor wasn't aware of it. I found out about it about an hour into the meeting and finally got a copy of it," said Mr. Rust-D'Eye.
Council suspended its rules of procedure for the meeting, at which they reduced Mr. Ford's budget and staff by 60 per cent, and gave deputy mayor Norm Kelly all powers of the mayor not set out in provincial law, such as chairing the executive committee.
"I don't think you can suspend the rules of procedure without at least giving some degree of fair notice as normally required under the bylaw," Mr. Rust-D'Eye said. "You can't just ad-hoc the whole thing. You know, 'let's all have a meeting and discuss a bunch of very serious actions against the mayor but don't bother giving him notice of it."
Mr. Rust-D'Eye was solicitor for Metro Toronto for three years in the late 1980s, and in the mid-1990s oversaw the writing of Ontario's City of Toronto Act, which sets out the rights and duties of the mayor and council.
Trying to stop council from taking away Mr. Ford's duties would involve an application to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The argument would be that while council cannot force him from power, "they're trying to do it indirectly by trying to take away the powers and assets that he needs to carry on his office," Mr. Rust-D'Eye said.
It would probably be a couple of months before the mayor's attempt to quash the bylaws is heard. In the meantime, "there's also the power under the act to bring an early application to stay council's decision, pending the outcome of the litigation. That would be brought on quite quickly."
Ordinarily, when a council member faces allegations of misconduct, the city's Integrity Commissioner would be asked to investigate, Mr. Rust-D'Eye said. In Mr. Ford's case, there have been reams of unproven allegations about Mr. Ford's behaviour, in police material used to obtain a search warrant in an investigation of Mr. Ford and several other people. Mr. Ford has admitted to smoking crack cocaine while mayor.
Council established a code of conduct, and "the obvious way to establish exactly what happened in a fair setting in which the mayor would have an opportunity to have input would be to have the Integrity Commissioner conduct her investigation, report back and recommend what the council should do," Mr. Rust-D'Eye said.
"Instead, the council decided without any investigation or findings of fact. . . to systematically one by one, [remove] even the right of the mayor to decide what order of speaking should take place at council."
He said he will advise Mr. Ford on what his chances of success would be in court. "I'm afraid that's solicitor-client [privilege]. I'll keep that for him."Report Typo/Error

misdiagnosedI just want to post this because i think it is important for people to know that not all doctors know enough about HPV to properly diagnose it. My doctor told me i had HPV and it had a huge impact on me. I later went to an HPV specialist who told me that what i had was normal tissue. NOT HPV. Sometimes HPV shows up like long almost finger like clusters. This is what i had, but many women have this around their vulva and it is totally natural. Before you seek any treatment, please go to a specialist. The guy i went to said he sees so many women who are told they have HPV when all they have is normal bumps (they don't look very normal) but they are perfectly healthy and even common in many women. please go get checked out. And talk to the doctors that misdiagnosed you. It will help them from misdiagnosing others. all the best

West of Jesus: The Bible's Answer to the Protestant Departure from Orthodox Belief is a condensed journey through Church history that establishes the Orthodox Church as the Body of Christ, as the Church founded by the Lord Jesus in the first century as evidenced by the New Testament.
Protestantism's schism from the historic Church and the failure to return to the Church established in the first century ended in the abandonment of Holy Tradition. These "fruits" include the novel Protestant precept of Sola Scriptura, a proposition that argues Scripture alone suffices to illumine the believer's life in Christ.
This resulted in the relegation of sacraments to mere symbols, a misunderstanding of the process of salvation, and other fatal misapprehensions about Scripture.
West of Jesus provides the Bible's own answer to the Protestant error in terms (using the biblical text) Protestants will relate to while also drawing on other aspects of the Holy Tradition. This is the perfect book for Protestants seeking to understand Orthodoxy and for the Orthodox Faithful who wish to be armed with the biblical answers to Protestant challenges.
About the Author
The author was raised in the Episcopal Church, fell away as a teen, and then turned to non-denominational Protestantism. He embarked upon a search that led to correspondence with Bishop Athanasios at the Monastery of Macheras in Cyprus. Soon thereafter, the author was introduced to Archimandrite Paisios, Abbot of St. Anthony's Monastery in Florence, Arizona. This resulted in the author's baptism into the Greek Orthodox Church, where he took the baptismal name "Anthony of the Desert." Under the guidance of Archimandrite Paisios (his spiritual father) Anthony became a novice and has chosen to use his baptismal name herein.
When a Protestant asks questions about the teaching, life and practice of the Orthodox Church most Orthodox don't have a clue. The Protestant wants his answers 'backed up' by specific Bible verses. In West of Jesus we Orthodox finally have a 'handbook' for answering Protestant questions. The author has given us a most compelling argument for Holy Tradition using the biblical texts as 'proofs.' Any Protestant looking at Orthodoxy should start his or her journey by reading this book. And any Orthodox who wants to understand Western Christianity will want to study it in detail too."

"I did it just for the halibut."
The halibuts are maybe the ugliest and meaniest alien races living on earth. They are underwater creatures, living mostly in the Canadian Sea, however they have been found as far west as Oklahoma City. They got big eyes and they're flat, just like Twiggy.
edit Eric The Fish, a Well Known Halibut
The most well known halibut is Eric The Fish, who was friend of Eric The Dog, Eric The Cat, Eric The Fruitbat and Eric The Half-A-bee. Eric The Fish was the queen of Canada during the 1970's.
edit Halibuts Are Smart
Halibuts may look stupid, but in fact they are very smart creatures. Maybe not smart enough to read or write, but perhaps smart enough to NOT read and write. Halibut cultures are maybe the greatest and most complicated on Earth, if you exclude ants, bees, beekeepers, penguins, and halibut. Some people say that the Halibuts built the pyramids, but you know how people are. That's right. Stupid.
edit History of the Halibut
The Holy Bible tells that Adam and Eve were actually halibuts, and Noah only saved Halibuts during the Great Deluge. Early dinosaur halibuts were made extinct that way.
Some say that Cthulhu is actually a gigantic Halibut, waiting for the Halibuts to take over the world. People, again. Unless they're scientists, you might as well ignore all of them.
edit Psychology of the Halibut
There are innovative, liberal halibuts and conservative group of halibuts. The innovative, liberal group is planning to take over the world. The conservative group is building a spaceship to leave this planet, but so far none of them want to contribute any money to the project.
edit Halibut City
Atlantis is the biggest Halibut city under the water. Cthulhu lives in Atlantis, too, which is further evidence of the monster race's connection with the flat, fishy people. There is some evidence that hurricane Katrina was made by halibuts to sink New Orleans, so that halibuts can spread their colony to there.
edit Halliburton
This multinational corporation is a front for all halibut terrorist activities on Earth.

JERUSALEM (Jul. 29)
American Jewish influence in Washington is strong and growing because U.S. Jews are "educated, affluent, intense, cohesive and articulate" and perhaps most important-"because we will fight for Israel's security without regard to how the struggle might affect our own status as a minority in America."
This view was expressed by Howard Squadron, president of the American Jewish Congress, at a public forum here on "The White House and American Jews Politics and Pressures" sponsored by the Congress at the Van Leer Jerusalem Foundation. The event served as a curtain-raiser for the organization's 15th annual American-Israel "Dialogue," which brought together two dozen American Jewish and Israeli intellectuals, rabbis and communal leaders earlier this month.
Squadron cautioned, however, that "we win some and we lose some and "we have no assurance that we will prevail when we challenge the White House." Despite this fact, however, the AJ Congress leader said, American Jews were still courted by the Carter Administration "not only for our own support but for our influence on other Americans." He noted that when the White House launched its drive to win public support for the SALT II treaty, Jewish organizational leaders, including himself had been among the first to be invited to Washington to hear the Administration's view and to bring it to the rest of the country.
Commenting on American Jewish activity in support of Israel, Squadron said: "Israel's security-not our own safety as a Jewish community-is the determining factor."
At the same time, he added, "we would hope to be able to advise the Government of Israel how best to present its case. If we can do that, we can serve Israel most effectively and our own country as well, for we share the fundamental conviction that a secure Israel serves America's best interests."
Simcha Dinitz, Israel's former Ambassador to the United States, told the forum that while he favored "honest and blunt dialogue" between American Jews and Israel, "I do not believe it should be conducted by open letters released to the New York Times." Dinitz, now assistant president of Hebrew University, said he agreed neither with those U.S. Jews who felt Israel should be free of criticism because "it's your country" nor with those who insisted an the right to participate in making policy for the Jewish state because they were Jews.
His own view, Dinitz said, was to encourage free and uninhibited criticism of Israeli policies by those who felt criticism was necessary but that it be done "not publicly through the newspapers but through direct conversations with Israel government officials.
"There is no lack of opportunity for American Jews to make their views known here," Dinitz said, "Israel is not a closed society. Channels are available and open for giving us your advice. But you will not strengthen the Jewish cause by converting your opinions into a public argument–and you will not enhance our security by concentrating on secondary issues."
The public display of American Jewish differences on secondary matters, Dinitz said, in an apparent reference to the dispute over Elon Moreh, "serves only to make a Jewish consensus on the major issues–such as the dangers of a Palestinian state and the indivisibility of Jerusalem–more difficult to impress on the makers of public policy and public opinion."

Paul Draper did a piece on Adam Walton's BBC Radio Wales show giving out some advice to up-and-coming musicians who fancy a life in the music industry.
You can find the show here where it should be available until about the 1st or 2nd of August.
Adam also revealed that Paul is providing some guest vocals on a new The Joy Formidable track and still producing Catherine Anne Davies (or Catherine AD as she is now known) and You Animals.
Disappointingly though, no news of any solo tracks - but we are a patient bunch and I'm sure will be rewarded eventually!

Mole, Ratty, Toad, and Badger are back for more rollicking adventures in this sequel to "The Wind in the Willows." With lavish illustrations by Clint Young, Jacqueline Kelly masterfully evokes the magic of Kenneth Grahame's beloved children's classic and brings it to life for a whole new generation.
About the Author
Jacqueline Kelly was born in New Zealand and raised in Canada. She now makes her home with her husband and various cats and dogs in Austin and Fentress, Texas. She is a practicing physician. Her first novel, The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate, was a Newbery Honor winner. Clint G. Young was born and lives in Dallas, Texas.
Praise For…
"[a] fast-paced, madcap adventure."--The New York Times
"Evoking the ineffable mixture of capers and camaraderie that has kept the original in print for so long, she serves up a roistering, boisterous tale of hot-air balloons, fireworks and GBQs*. And while youngsters are lapping up Toad's adventures, howling as he rockets from lugubrious to lovable in the space of a chapter, adults lucky enough to read this aloud will also have lots of sly asides to chuckle over...."--The Washington Post
"Engaging from beginning to end, this sequel is superb." -- School Library Journal
"...an affectionate follow-up to a classic of children's literature, one that succeeds on its own as a humorous and adventurous romp along the riverbank and into the Wild Wood."--Publishers Weekly
"Writing a sequel to such a beloved classic is almost as bold a move as Toad stealing a motor-car, but happily, Kelly's results warrant accolades rather than a trip to gaol."--Kirkus
Praise for The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate:
"The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate is the most delightful historical novel for tweens in many, many years. . . . Callie's struggles to find a place in the world where she'll be encouraged in the gawky joys of intellectual curiosity are fresh, funny, and poignant today." —The New Yorker
"In her debut novel, Jacqueline Kelly brings to vivid life a boisterous small-town family at the dawn of a new century. And she especially shines in her depiction of the natural world that so intrigues Callie. . . . Readers will want to crank up the AC before cracking the cover, though. That first chapter packs a lot of summer heat." —The Washington Post
"Each chapter of this winning . . . novel opens with a quotation from On the Origin of Species—a forbidden book that her own grandfather turns out to have hidden away. Together they study Darwin's masterpiece, leading to a revolution in Callie's ideas of what she might accomplish on her own." —The New York Times Book Review
"Callie's transformation into an adult and her unexpected bravery make for an exciting and enjoyable read. Kelly's rich images and setting, believable relationships and a touch of magic take this story far." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Interwoven with the scientific theme are threads of daily life in a large family—the bonds with siblings, the conversations overheard, the unspoken understandings and misunderstandings—all told with wry humor and a sharp eye for details that bring the characters and the setting to life. The eye-catching jacket art, which silhouettes Callie and images from nature against a yellow background, is true to the period and the story. Many readers will hope for a sequel to this engaging, satisfying first novel." —Booklist, starred review
"Readers will finish this witty, deftly crafted debut novel rooting for 'Callie Vee' and wishing they knew what kind of adult she would become." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"A charming and inventive story of a child struggling to find her identity at the turn of the 20th century. . . . There's no uncertainty over the achievement of Kelly's debut novel." —School Library Journal, starred review
"Narrator Calpurnia's voice is fresh and convincing, and Granddaddy is that favorite relative most readers would love to claim as their own. Historical fiction fans are in for a treat." —BCCB
"Kelly, without anachronism, has created a memorable, warm, spirited young woman who's refreshingly ahead of her time." —The Horn Book
"That rare book that will appeal to child and adult alike." —Austin American-Statesman
"Introduces a turn-of-the-20th-century heroine for modern times." —Shelf Awareness

Update 9:59 p.m.: The Capitals selected Medicine Hat defenseman Tyler Lewington with their final pick of the 2013 draft, 204th overall. That's all for the live blog tonight as the draft wraps up, but be sure to check back later tonight for more on the Capitals' interest in Vincent Lecavalier and our full draft story in tomorrow's paper.
Update 9:25 p.m.: Washington selected center Brian Pinho in the sixth round with the 174th pick. A Massachusetts native, Pinho is a Providence recruit.
Update 9:08 p.m.: Catching up on a previous trade, Winnipeg acquired Michael Frolik from Chicago for two picks — a third (74) and fifth (134). While the Stanley Cup Champions shipped out Frolik and Bolland on Sunday, they also re-signed playoff performer Bryan Bickell to a four-year, $16 million deal.
Update 8:58 p.m.: With the 144th overall pick the Capitals took defenseman Blake Heinrich. He's a Minnesota-Duluth recruit but Heinrich is expected to spend one more year in the USHL with Souix City.
Update 7:31 p.m.: The Capitals moved up, acquiring the 61st overall pick from Winnipeg. In return, the Jets receive picks in the third (84), fourth (114) and fifth (127) rounds of the draft. With the newly-acquired selection, Washington chose forward Zachary Sanford (6-3, 168 pounds) who has committed to Boston College.
Update 7:10 p.m.: The Capitals selected Canadian defenseman Madison Bowey with the 53rd overall pick. Bowey, 18, played for the WHL's Kelowna Rockets and recorded 12 goals and 18 assists in 69 games during the 2012-13 season.
Update 6:51 p.m.: Andre Burakovsky had just wrapped up his first few interviews after being drafted Sunday night when Capitals PR director Sergey Kocharov walked over and handed him a phone. It was Alex Ovechkin, calling to congratulate Burakovsky on being drafted and welcome him to the organization. It was a neat moment as Burakovsky stood grinning as he told Ovechkin how excited he was to join the Caps.
Burakovsky, 18, is still a few years away from the NHL. He estimated he wouldn't be ready to make the jump for at least another two years.
"I will work hard every day to work to get to Washington's team," Burakovsky said. "I think about two years I will be ready, but I have to work hard every day."
Coach Adam Oates met with reporters at the conclusion of the first round. He was involved in Washington's meeting with impending unrestricted free agent center Vincent Lecavalier Saturday and I'll have more on that on the blog later this evening after filing a story for the early dead-tree edition.
Update 6:42 p.m.: Toronto has acquired forward Dave Bolland, who scored the Stanley Cup winning goal for the Blackhawks less than a week ago. In exchange, Chicago receives the 51st and 117th picks in today's draft along with a fourth-round choice in 2014.
Update 6:24 p.m.: In a swap of defensemen, Carolina sent Jamie McBain to Buffalo for Andrej Sekera and the 35th overall pick.
Update 5:57 p.m.: With the 23rd overall pick, the Capitals selected winger Andre Burakovsky. Listed at 6-1, 176 pounds Burakovsky was ranked fifth among European skaters available in the draft according to NHL Central Scouting.
Born in Austria while his father Robert was playing hockey there, Burakovsky grew up in Sweden and is working his way up through their developmental leagues and national teams. In 2012-13, Burakovsky recorded four goals and seven assists in 43 games for Malmo in the second-tier Swedish league.
Update 4:55 p.m.: Detroit traded the 18th overall pick to San Jose for the 20th and 58th selections in today's draft. Speaking of the Sharks, earlier in the day they acquired the rights to impending RFA Tyler Kennedy from Pittsburgh for a second-round pick (50).
Update 4:00 p.m.: New Jersey rocks the house by trading the ninth overall pick to Vancouver for goaltender Cory Schneider. It's a heck of a move by the Devils, who now have a clear heir to Martin Brodeur's throne. Many believe Roberto Luongo was looking for a fresh start, so it should be interesting to see how it works with him as the No. 1 netminder in Vancouver again.
Update 3:55 p.m.: In the first trade of the draft, the Islanders have acquired gritty winger Cal Clutterbuck, an impending RFA, and a third-round pick (70) in today's draft from Minnesota in exchange for winger Nino Niederreiter.
Update 3:47 p.m.: Darnell Nurse, who is the nephew of former Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb, was selected seventh overall by the Edmonton Oilers. The 6 foot 3, 185 pound defenseman told reporters earlier this week that he likes to model his game after Nashville's Shea Weber — not a bad role model.
Update 3:30 p.m.: After Florida took Aleksander Barkov with the No. 2 pick and Tampa Bay chose Jonathan Drouin third, there was some question as to how far defenseman Seth Jones might fall in the first round. Nashville made the obvious choice with the fourth-overall pick, though, by selecting the top-rated blueliner. Seth Jones is the son of former Wizards forward and current Brooklyn Nets assistant coach Popeye Jones.
Update 3:14 p.m.: So the Avalanche brass weren't bluffing when they declared, repeatedly, over the past several days that they would take center Nathan MacKinnon with the first overall pick. MacKinnon is expected to jump straight into the NHL.
Greetings from the Prudential Center in Newark, where the start of the 2013 NHL Draft is rapidly approaching. It should be an eventful afternoon, not only for the prospects but also as we see whether a week's worth of trade rumblings result in any significant deals.
As things stand now, the Capitals hold eight selections including the 23rd overall pick. As trade talk reaches a boiling point with all 30 teams in one room, though, will General Manager George McPhee jump in the fray to improve the team that will be on the ice in 2013-14? Time will tell, but as discussed in today's print edition McPhee has made draft-day deals each of the past five seasons.
Washington holds the 23rd overall selection in the first round, 53rd in the second, 84th in the third, 114 in the fourth, 127th and 144th in the fifth, 174th in the sixth and 204th in the seventh.
The draft starts at 3 p.m. and is being broadcast on the NBC Sports Network. For a full list of every selection in the draft, check out NHL.com.
I'll post updates as the Capitals make their picks and as any big trades occur around the league, so be sure to stay tuned throughout the afternoon and evening. Updates will be added in reverse chronological order.

This article is by Tom Slayton. In This State is a syndicated weekly column about Vermont's innovators, people, ideas and places.
On his black silk Tibetan smock, Tenzin Chophel of Middlebury wears a contemporary button and a patch. "Free Tibet," urges the patch. The button, more firmly declares: "Tibet Will be Free." The smock, made in a traditional Tibetan style, declares nothing, yet expresses Chophel's love for the culture of his homeland.
Those two themes – protesting the Chinese takeover of their homeland yet somehow preserving Tibet's traditional culture – are woven through much of the daily life and art of Vermont's Tibetan community. They are expressed also in a major show of contemporary Tibetan art on display now through June 22 at the Fleming Museum in Burlington. And they were vigorously expressed in song, music and dance at a recent gathering and celebration of Tibetan culture by the Tibetan Association of Vermont at the Fleming.
The event last month attracted about 50 onlookers who sat on folding chairs or on the marble stairs of the echoing Marble Court in the formal central space of the museum.
"We are here to share Tibetan dance and song," said Mingmar Tsering, president of the Tibetan Association. "Tibetans love being Tibetans, and it is important to us to try to express and protect our culture."
He then played a haunting tune on a colorfully painted flute, and said, "I just played a tune straight from my heart. I tried to take you all to Tibet, so you could see the mountains and streams and villages."
There followed a series of songs and dances. Children, with much giggling and sidelong glances, did a simple dance resembling a Virginia reel, and two groups of women performed more intricate dances, all in costume. The hard floors of the Marble Court echoed with the vigorous slapping of the dancers' feet as they spun and sashayed.
Tsering accompanied the dancers on Tibetan instruments — either on the flute, or on a seven-stringed instrument called a dramyin – and sang in Tibetan about his sorrow at being exiled from his homeland.
Vermont has been a kind host, the Tibetans said. But there have been many challenges to overcome as they adapt to American culture, and to the Vermont environment, which this past winter was colder than is generally the case in much of Tibet, they said.
About 150 Tibetans live in Vermont, mostly in Chittenden County. Some of the elders were born in Tibet, but most of the younger ones were born in Dharamsala, a Tibetan community in India centered upon the Dalai Lama, whom Tibetans regard as a living deity and who is the leader of their Tibetan Buddhist religion.
Vermont was chosen in 1993 as one of 25 resettlement sites for Tibetans relocating in America. That year a handful of Tibetans came to Burlington. The state has gained a reputation for being friendly to immigrants, and over the years, some 35 Tibetan families have come to live here. They initially found work in entry-level jobs, but over the two decades many have moved on to professional jobs or opened businesses. Tenzin Chophel, for example, is a metalsmith and artist.
They are part of a quiet but significant influx of immigrants of various nationalities to the Green Mountain State. Since 1993, more than 6,000 immigrants have come to Vermont under a federal refugee resettlement program. The largest numbers, according to a story in Seven Days, are 1,705 Bosnians, 1,437 Bhutanese, and 1,000 Africans from several violence-torn countries.
"The Tibetans came here with virtually nothing 20 years ago, and they never asked for a thing," said Steve Conlon, a Grand Isle resident familiar with the community through his work guiding tours to various Himalayan countries. "They are an exceptionally enterprising, hard-working, proud people."
Their work to maintain their native culture is an ongoing project in which virtually everyone in the Vermont community participates. But the Tibetans face an uphill struggle. Even living in Vermont, they are surrounded by the pervasive influence of American pop culture, and must work continuously to pass on their language, customs, and religion to a younger generation influenced by television, commerce, and their classmates at school. Their hope is to build a Tibetan Community Cultural Center, where religious events, festivals, language and other classes and public events could take place.
As some of the young Tibetans danced in traditional costumes, others, clad in T-shirts and jeans, raced exuberantly around the museum, much like American youngsters anywhere. It is a cultural conflict acknowledged by several members of the Tibetan community here.
That culture clash is also the subject of several paintings in the Fleming's current show of contemporary Tibetan art. Titled "Anonymous," the show combines traditional and contemporary artistic media and techniques, including photography, to document the changes and stresses affecting Tibet's scattered population.
Tsewang Tashi's series of color photographs, ironically entitled "Shangri La, Numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4" play with the Western idea of Tibet as "Shangri La" – a remote, impossibly exotic land – by mixing figures in traditional costumes with young people in hoodies, blue jeans, and fatigue jackets. That is part of today's distressing reality for Tibetans.
Another sort of social pressure is expressed in Rabkar Wangchuk's "Spiritual Mind and Modern Technology," a finely painted surrealistic mixture of electronics, gears, racing taxis, and other symbols of fast-paced American life, overseen by a calm and contemplative Buddha with penetrating Eastern eyes.
Does the fact that half the Buddha's face is replaced by gears and wires, and that "Home Depot" and "Best Buy" tags are suspended from his elongated ears imply that the Tibetans' native Buddhism is being overrun by modern life? Or does it suggest that the calmness of Buddha-mind exists even within modern technology?
As Tenzin Chophel and Anak Tseten, two leaders of the Vermont Tibetans, toured the exhibit, they seemed most strongly moved by the works protesting the Chinese takeover of their homeland.
"Demoness of Tibet," an intricate painting using mineral pigments on cloth by Penba Wangdu, depicts a reclining female figure symbolizing Tibet, with staring eyes, long claws, and white fangs. Houses, villages, shrines and monasteries perch on various parts of her body, and ominous-looking slashes of red – symbolizing red China's invasion and influence – slice toward her.
After viewing the painting, Chophel said simply, "She's protecting."
The two men contemplated Sherab Gyaltsan's "Roots and Mandala," for several minutes, but offered no explanation of its intricate, global shape, its hovering angel figures, or its web of roots reaching outward toward flocks of soaring birds.
Finally, Chophel said quietly: "Many stories there."

Comment on Anime Industry Returns to TAF, Grovels Before Ishihara by Anonymous:
I still live despite some changes in just about anything, but I'll feel slightly sad that the world and their gov't are going off the deep end, making decisions that doesn't make sense and putting their people in some deep s**t.
I find it more sad that no one seems to realize, that we are all in this mess regardless if where we are and how bad it is in our country. It's so easy for anyone whose arrogant and ignorant to just attempt to shut up anyone whose actually speaking some truth in the matter about us.
I'm as pissed as anyone else about the BS that the USA, Japan, and a few other countries are coming up these days and stuff like this throws us back in that loophole that never made anything better for ourselves. I've no choice but to live through it all for now, being repressed by the people in power whose yanking all of a chains, more than that, throwing us all around for a loop.
It's sad. It's sad for USA to be in their predicament (which I think started it all was 9/11 following the decision made by all powers in that country, which lead up to their worse turning point in 2008), it's sad for Japan to blame most of their troubles on fictional works, some of it (although some fault might be on the publishes who give their adult works to people ages 15+ or lower, something like that), and it's sad for anyone else in the world having to deal with the BS that could have been prevented.
Let's face it, we're all in this sticky mess together regardless of where we live, who we are, our thoughts and feelings and all that. And I'll tell you one more thing, All we've been doing is the same thing for most of us, Complaining, bickering, calling names, punching, kicking, yelling, screaming, discriminating, and blaming each other every single day, every single year, every single second that goes by. Those stuff some of us we've been doing won't help and will never help get us out of our troubles.
This is a really long paragraph….hmm..
I may have gone a bit off the edge, but I just wanted to get this out. I just said this because even though I'm American, I'm not somebody who you think I am. I'm grown up and learning the truth every day, seeing as I'm not the only one whose been seeing all the mess that's been made and the people I meet, are just the same in a sense, we're both proud of ourselves and our country, but we listen too much of the crap that's not always true about others.

Jessica Biel on Relationship With Justin Timberlake: I Don't Kiss & Tell
When asked about her relationship with Mr. JT, the A-Team actress played coy, telling Elle magazine:
"A girl doesn't kiss and tell."
Jessica did, however, open up about dating actors, admitting to the mag:
"I think those are the people you meet and so it just kind of happens. Let me tell you: It never happens on purpose."
So, can we expect some little Biels running around some time soon? The actress disclosed that she'd like to have kids.
"Sure, of course. And, yeah, I think probably at some point it would be something I'm interested in. But I don't feel pressured. I was never one of those girls who dreamt of my wedding and my Prince Charming. To piss off my mom, I used to say, 'I'm never having kids, and I'm going to be a fabulously rich old maid living in a house with cute butlers and dogs.'"

Under the proposals set out in the 2014 Care Act, local authorities must carry out an assessment of anyone who may require care or support, regardless of their elgibility for state-funding. Once the needs assessment is complete, a financial assessment (or 'means test') follows to see if the individual qualifies for state financial support. Under this system, there will be a life-time cap on care costs. Everyone with eligible needs will have a care account that records their spend towards the cap, which the government has set at £72,000. Once that cap is reached, the subsequent cost of care is met by the state. The cap has been proposed to prevent people incurring financially disastrous care costs, providing some peace of mind that people will know with certainty what they are expected to contribute. However, the scheme has its own shortcomings. For one, the cap does not cover daily living costs. In addition, the new administrative machinery required to monitor the scheme, plus its wider scope of assessment, brings into question its cost-effectiveness and practicality.

Social capital in a tolerant society? a response to treasurer Costello's presentation to the Sydney Institute
Jorgensen, Bradley (2004) Social capital in a tolerant society? a response to treasurer Costello's presentation to the Sydney Institute. International Journal of Sociology and Social Policy, 24(1/2), p. 1.
On 16 July 2003 the Australian Government's Treasurer, the Honourable Peter Costello, addressed the Sydney Institute on his vision for a tolerant Australian society. Drawing from Putnam's research Costello argued that tolerance will flow from an active voluntary sector. However, Costello's proposed model for a "tolerant" society fails to acknowledge that all behaviour is strategic and that voluntary association based on disinterested action is not possible. Ultimately, Treasurer Costello's notion of tolerant society fuelled by an active voluntary sector may not lead to his desired end. Indeed, the promotion of voluntary association may contribute to the ongoing exclusion of citizens with low social capital. Amid the dynamism of the modern era some citizens such as ageing workers, slow or ineffective learners and women may be especially at risk. Accordingly, rather than advocating a policy approach that seeks to build inclusiveness through an active voluntary sector this paper recommends a policy approach that explores ways in which to strengthen learning and the wider involvement of individuals through both formal and informal means.

Ok, I'll admit it. I'm hoping to lure out lurkers. I'll stoop to just about anything.
The object of the game is to guess what this is:
While I won't tell you what it is (thereby defeating the purpose of the game), I WILL tell you that it came into my possession this afternoon, and that it caused me MUCH grief and consternation. It's about three inches long and sharp as all hell (which was the source of the grief it caused). When all is said and done, it will have been worth close to a hundred bucks.
I have NO idea what your prize would be if you guess correctly. It would have to be something pretty inexpensive, though, 'cause I'm out a c-note already.

Senator Nozzolio Named One of Top State Legislators by Unshackle Upstate
In recognition of his efforts to support job growth, lower taxes and economic development in Upstate New York, State Senator Mike Nozzolio has been named one of Unshackle Upstate's top ten Senators for the 2010 legislative session. Senator Nozzolio also received a perfect grading from Unshackle Upstate on his advocacy for taxpayers during the State budget process. The ranking comes as part of Unshackle Upstate's "Judgment Day" campaign to identify which State legislators acted in the best interests of Upstate New York's taxpayers and job creators.
"It is an honor to be recognized by an organization that shares my strong commitment to creating a better future for our taxpayers and job-creating businesses," said Senator Nozzolio. "The past two years have been a time of tremendous frustration for the residents of our region, but I am more determined than ever to change the way State government operates. I will continue working aggressively with Unshackle Upstate to reduce taxes and fees, cap property taxes, cut State spending and abolish unfunded mandates."
Senator Nozzolio was recognized by Unshackle Upstate for voting to support New York State taxpayers' priorities on 100% of the 2010-11 State budget bills that came before the State Senate. Senator Nozzolio voted against all 12 of the budget bills identified as "fiscally unsound" that increased State spending and taxes. He was also applauded for opposing a number of anti-job measures that would have imposed unaffordable costs on job-creating businesses, including the Farm Labor Bill, which he lead the fight to defeat in the State Senate.
Senator Nozzolio was also commended for cosponsoring an amendment to cap property taxes at 2 percent, the same cap that brought Massachusetts from having the 3rd highest property taxes in the nation to the 33rd highest. Unshackle Upstate also recognized his efforts as a sponsor of legislation (S.6132) to repeal the unnecessary new tax on utilities included in last year's State Budget and provide energy relief for Upstate's overburdened taxpayers and job-creating businesses.
"We can and must turn our State around so that we restore fiscal accountability, put people back to work and have career opportunities so that our young people don't have to leave our region to find jobs," said Senator Nozzolio. "I commend Unshackle Upstate for their efforts to hold every State legislator accountable to the taxpayers and look forward to working with them in the future to make our State an affordable place to live, work and raise a family."

Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, is in the center of the track and field world this week -- Ostrava, Czech Republic.
It's where the IAAF Golden Spike meet will be held Friday with a star-studded field that includes Bolt running in the 100. He says he wants to run 9.7 this week after opening with 9.82 in Kingston more than two weeks ago. His world record is 9.58.
On Wednesday, Bolt took to the track with schoolchildren. On Friday, he's up against American Doc Patton, Britain's Dwain Chambers, world medalist Kim Collins and Jamaica's Lerone Clarke. All four competitors have run sub-10, but only Clarke has done it so far this season (9.99).
Other notable Americans in Ostrava: Lolo Jones (100 hurdles), Sanya Richards Ross (400) vs. 2008 Olympic champion Christine Ohuruogu of Britain, Lashawn Merritt (400), Prince Spearmon (200) and Walter Dix (200), Lashinda Demus (400 hurdles).

The north-easterners face a stern outfit who have shone under Santosh Kashyap, this Sunday evening. Can a relegation wary Lajong grind out a good result for themselves?
Lallawmzuala, Passah, Son, Shadap;
Haokip, Taisuket, Lyngdoh, Jibon;
Sushil, Edinho
Sali, Gurung, Odeola, Naresh;
Puia, Surabuddin, Bisht, Katsumi;
Patil, Brown
An intriguing matchup awaits us at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Shillong this Sunday as a desperate Shillong Lajong outfit welcome a well-oiled ONGC side in the 23rd I-League gameweek.
The onus this time around will definitely be on Lajong as they will be looking to make home advantage count in correcting their erronous ways in recent times. While both teams will go into this one on the back of two consecutive draws, the north east team will be the more concerned side as they lie at the 10th position in the standings with 21 points, half a dozen points off the drop-zone.
ONGC, who are placed in the seventh slot with 29 points, too come into this one after fighting draws against Sporting Clube de Goa and Churchill Brothers. Moreover, the visitors who have really found their feet under the tutelage of Santosh Kashyap have impressed one and all this season with some gritty displays and commendable defending. Wahid Sali & Co have done well more often than not this campaign. Shillong will have to come up with some hard tactics and a smooth display if they are to breakdown this ONGC defence.
The record of both these teams in their last 5 games are more or less similar. While Lajong have drawn three and won and lost one apiece, ONGC have a couple of draws and losses to go with their one win which came against Pailan Arrows.
While regaining confidence will be high on both these teams' priorities, the bright spark for Lajong has been their loan signing from Blackburn Rovers - Edinho Jr. Thangboi Singto's side will be hoping for the Portuguese starlet to shine against ONGC on Sunday in their bid to restore parity as far as the relegation battle is concerned.
So compared to the Meghalaya side, Kashyap's men do not have much to lose while going into this one.
|Kashyap: I am extremely proud of my players
In an exclusive conversation with Goal.com, Kashyap gave credit to his whole set of players of giving their all in their performances so far since his time at the helm. "Despite uncertainty in the team owing to injuries and suspensions, the players have been doing a great job. The team's performances in the games after the break have been exemplary", he reveled in his side's glory.
He also added, "While other sides in the league have added fresh talent from overseas and tried to fire their way forward, ONGC has been progressing by leaps and bounds given the same squad from the start of the season, within the given budget. I think that is something to be proud about."
The former Mohun Bagan coach also quipped on the ongoing debate regarding afternoon games in the I-League. "I am happy that all the other coaches in the competition too are voicing their concern regarding the 2 PM kick-offs. It will be in everyone's best interest to push matches further later in the day. While spectators can turn up in larger numbers after finishing their work-day, players too will have a good game under favourable conditions. This is not a school team match. This is the I-league. It will be good for Indian football to shift timings."
A pleasant game is in the offing for both sides as kick off is scheduled at 5 PM this Sunday evening.
Shillong Lajong: Goals have not been that big a problem for Lajong with Edinho, Haokip, Kamimura and others finding the net in recent times. If anything, they need to stay compact at the back and show consistency. Singto could name a similar side to the one that drew 2-2 against Mohun Bagan last time out.
ONGC: They have been in great form ever since Kashyap took over, and will hope to pick up another big scalp. While Keniston is still unavailable; Joel, Dhanesh (both knee) and Kamal Thapa are still on the sidelines. The returning Surabuddin could make a comeback to the starting lineup or start on the bench.
- The season's corresponding fixture in Delhi finished 3-0 to ONGC with Eric Brown and Katsumi Yusa finding the net, the latter boasting a double.
- Santosh Kashyap is one of the very few Indian coaches who possesses an AFC 'A' License.
- Shillong Lajong's goal difference of -15 is only better than the -19 of Air India and United Sikkim.

Madame lorrain the younger, Pierrette's mother, died in 1819.
But the lorrain Emperors have not forgotten their old virtue of hospitality.
Madame lorrain had received the money only the day before the post brought her Brigaut's letter, enclosing that of Pierrette.
Her grandfather and grandmother lorrain wrote to us—when was that, my dear?
His parents were poor, lived in the Duchy of lorrain and from that political division the Artist was named.
Then Brigaut, advancing, was horrified at the sight of Madame lorrain, who was now weeping.
The two lorrain princes attributed the queen-mother's absence to some trick of their niece.
lorrain, pursing up his lips, waved a severely negative finger before his nose.
lorrain replies, "Yes, Monseigneur," as the big tears run down his bronzed cheeks.
Anna Mikhaylovna stepped forward and, stooping over the dying man, beckoned to lorrain from behind her back.
region in eastern France, from Medieval Latin Lotharingia, literally "Lothar's Realm," name later given to the northern portion of the lands assigned by the Treaty of Verdun (843 C.E.) to Lothair I in the first division of the Carolingian empire. His empire stretched from the North Sea to the Mediterranean. Before his death (855 C.E.), Lothair subdivided his lands among his three sons. His son, Lothair (for whom the region is named), was given Lotharingia as his kingdom.

Halloween Man On Fire
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) _ Authorities are investigating the death of a man who somehow became engulfed in flames at West Hollywood's popular Halloween carnival.
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Irys Alvarez said detectives were seeking witnesses to Thursday night's incident to determine whether what happened was an accident or a crime.
The Los Angeles Times reports video posted on YouTube shows a man engulfed in flames next to a crowd near a performance stage. Someone can be heard saying, ``He's on fire!'' as people move in to help the man, whose pants appeared to have caught fire.
The coroner's office said the man, 51-year-old Gilbert Estrada, was taken to a hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

Rebuttal to Huffington Post's "Right Wing Attacks Climate Scientist with Outrageous Spindoctoring"Kevin Grandia, managing editor of the left-wing anti-global warming skeptic website DeSmogBlog, has posted an article on the Huffington Post about our exposure (along with that of others) of Michael Mann's $541,184 grant from federal stimulus funds.
Kevin must have known the article was fundamentally incorrect when he submitted it to the Huffington Post.
The post, entitled "Right wing attacks climate scientist with outrageous spindoctoring," can be read here. It was actually written by one of Kevin's DeSmogBlog writers, Mitchell Anderson, and appeared on DeSmogBlog at http://tinyurl.com/desmogblog on Friday.
Because the Huffington Post is one of the most highly-trafficked websites in the world, and Kevin/Mitchell's article there was so off-the-wall wrong, I posted a comment on the Huffington Post correcting the basic facts. The comment, which makes the most sense if you read the Huffington Post piece first, is:
Kevin Grandia and Mitchell Anderson embarrass themselves with lines such as "How they arrived at this $450,000 error is unknown - it is puzzling when such free market capitalists clearly can't operate a calculator..."Addendum, 1/17/10: Apparently AlterNet has posted this as well. Why aren't these very major websites doing even superficial fact-checking before they publish pieces?
Mitchell and Kevin are talking about the wrong grant, and Kevin, at minimum, must have known this before he posted this here. Their article here links to the National Center for Public Policy Research (which employs me) press release (partially reprinted by Friskaliberal.com, also linked to here), which calls for a return of a grant of $541,184.
Kevin wrote us Thursday to ask about the grant. We IDed the grant for him as National Science Foundation award #0902133, which is for $541,184.
So Kevin knew, before posting this here, that "the climate denial echo chamber" (as he so charmingy calls us) wasn't talking about an entirely different, $770,000 grant to Penn State/ U of HI, of which Mann received a small portion.
The real story: in June 2009, Penn State accepted a $541,184 grant, to cover three years, to Michael Mann's work. Climategate then exploded. Apparently believing Climategate to be serious, Penn State opened an investigation into Mann's work. Our position is that under these circumstances, the grant should be returned to the National Science Foundation, so the funds can be awarded to another scientist.
Kevin and Mitchell seem to think this would be awful. I'm not sure why. Maybe just because we're the ones who suggested it.

HPU News for August 2011
Li awarded Fujie Scholarship
August 24, 2011
Carol Fujie meets with incoming Hawai'i Pacific University freshman Susanna Li, the first recipient of the Lloyd M. Fujie Scholarship. The scholarship is named after Carol's husband, an HPU Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, who died in 2006.
HONOLULU — Incoming Hawai'i Pacific University freshman Susanna Li of Honolulu has been named the first awardee of the Lloyd M. Fujie Scholarship.
Li, a McKinley High School graduate, will study accounting. She was a member of the McKinley High School Leo Club and has participated in community cleanups, volunteered to help the homeless, and tutored at her school.
Fujie, who died in 2006, was a Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at HPU. He also served 32 years at accounting firm Deloitte & Touche, LLP.
Li said she wanted to study at a private university instead of larger public institutions and looks forward to the small class sizes at HPU.
"I think the students learn better. Instructors can focus more on students and I want to know my professors," she said.
Li said she aspires to establish an accounting firm, after her time at HPU. That brought a smile to Carol Fujie, who congratulated her on behalf of her late husband.
"She has glowing recommendations," Carol said.
The Lloyd M. Fujie Scholarship for incoming freshmen is valued up to $10,000, with $2,500 awarded per academic year.
For more information about the scholarship or to donate to the fund, contact the HPU Scholarships Office at 566-2430 or email email@example.com.
