The myth that M. Night Shyamalan is the new Alfred Hitchcock or even the old one is something that the director himself seems eager to cultivate. It reminds me of the publicity sponsored by Brian De Palma around the time of "Dressed to Kill" appointing himself heir to the throne of Hitchcock and labeling himself the "master of the macabre". As time wore on, the label proved to be an albatross around De Palma's neck and is one of the major reasons why I believe this truly great filmmaker is not more respected in this country. When "Saturday Night Live" targets your perceived pretension with a trailer parody called Brian De Palma's "The Clams", it's time to re-evaluate your image.
It's this obsession with personal image that has led Shyamalan down a very strange path. His increasingly large cameos in his own films, American Express commercials, and that absurd Sci-Fi channel documentary, "The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan" have all contributed towards the creation of an image less like Alfred Hitchcock and more like William Castle: a master not of suspense or storytelling, but rather of gimmicks and carnival barking. Moreover, all of this arm waving and tap dancing has done nothing for the work itself. With all of the hype and "mystique", Shyamalan seems to be demonstrating nothing more than the law of diminishing returns, both artistically and financially. What began as a specific style well applied to a specific story in "The Sixth Sense" became the model for a series of increasingly self conscious and self aggrandizing arty thrillers which seemed to be focused on decreasing logic while increasing the font size of the director's on-screen credit.
"Lady in the Water" is Shyamalan's attempt to wind back the clock to the days before the release of "Unbreakable", when Shyamalan felt like he was in control of his work and could mix the needs of the box office and his audience's expectations with themes and ideas that interested him. "Lady" is the tale of a "Madame Narf" (Bryce Dallas Howard) who is sent on a mission from the Blue World to inspire a human whose book will one day save the world. A gallery of mythic healers, symbolists and guardians are then needed to protect her from the villainous "Scrunts" and return her safely to the Blue World in the claws of a giant eagle called the "Great Eatlon".
What worked in "Unbreakable" dies a slow, painful death onscreen in "Lady in the Water". Shyamalan is so concerned with getting across the "brilliant" concept that he is telling a story that is really about the very nature of storytelling centering on a character actually named "Story", that he forgets to actually write a screenplay with characters and motivations that will involve the audience. "Unbreakable" was also concerned with this kind of metafiction, but it allowed the audience to work that out for themselves while we were sinking into the story of a man who learns he has powers above and beyond that of common men. Shyamalan worked hard in that film not to strain credulity and to allow us to suspend our disbelief. He doesn't even begin to create that suspension here.
What is most annoying about "Lady in the Water" is that no one, not for one second, ever considers the possibility that nothing magical is actually occurring. What's most troubling is that the material is right there for a better movie, and it's hard to imagine that Shyamalan didn't see it himself. The film starts out silly and just gets sillier. A couple of film reels later, you begin to laugh every time you hear about a "narf","scrunt" or a "tartutic". What's even more outrageous is that Shyamalan tries to pass this absurd stuff off as some kind of old Korean legend, which it is not. It comes completely from the depths of his own mind.
However, Shyamalan has cast the film well. Paul Giamatti plays the building manager of The Cove, the gray apartment block setting that is the single location of "Lady in the Water". Giamatti is unfortunately given the unlikely name of Cleveland Heep, which puts thoughts in the mind that Shyamalan was thinking of a more Spielberg kind of entertainment, perhaps titled, "Cleveland Heep and the Lady in the Water". Regardless of the oddball name and wooden dialogue, Giamatti gives another excellent performance, this time in a lead role which requires him to do the heavy lifting. He carries the movie effortlessly and will hopefully get more chances in the future to demonstrate the real sincerity and humble heroic nature he showcases here.
Bryce Dallas Howard has less to do as the cryptic title character, but her pale features and soft voice make her perfect for the role. Everyone else, from Jeffrey Wright to Mary Beth Hurt and Jared Harris, is totally wasted on roles that in many cases are much smaller than that of "Vick", the visionary writer whose ideas will one day inspire the world, a role played by the director himself, whose very presence onscreen throws you out of the story. Imagine Alfred Hitchcock playing the role of Detective Arbogast in "Psycho". You wouldn't be able to watch the movie. Every time he appeared, the audience would giggle and leave the movie's reality behind. For a director so obviously concerned with his image in the real world, playing a messianic character in his own movie is the worst choice possible.

Who cares what the PM has on his iPod?
"Deep down, people know that politics is more important than Pop Idol. They understand that it is utterly irrelevant what a would-be prime minister has on his iPod. They do not care if he is a devotee of Arctic Monkeys. In fact, they would prefer that those who serve them spent their spare time thinking about the economy or public services than in pathetic populist posturing. They appreciate that Hansard is not Heat magazine without the pictures. Westminster is not Hollywood. Politics is about ideas or it is about nothing." —Tim Hames

Ratings for Dr. John Hunter
Due to a few bad car accidents I have met more than my share of doctors. I have met several really bad doctors, a few good doctors but only 1 sticks out in my mind as a great doctor and that doctor is Dr John Hunter. I made a bad decision to try some meds that I got from a "dispensary" to try and get off the opiate pain meds I am on and if it wasnt for Dr Hunter I would for sure be dead right now. I am still not completely back to normal but he for sure saved my life. Great guy!
Dr>John Hunter of the Beaverlodge Medical Clinic was our family physician for over 30 years - since he first came to Beaverlodge. He goes way beyond the call of duty. He listens and HEARS. he supports. He refers. He is experienced and very kind and caring. He follows up. Our community has been so lucky to have him for so many years. He will be missed.
Dr Hunter has been my whole families doctor for the last 20 years. Sad he is retiring. Just to add to measure what a great man he is and he truly cares about his patients. He researched and printed a list of doctors covering the lower mainland that are accepting new patients. He sometimes runs late, although you never feel rushed in your appointments. He takes the time to listen, never makes you feel stupid for asking stupid questions. He is a doctor worth waiting for if running late. His staff, while not super friendly, (due to be super busy I'd imagine) though always polite and informative. Dr. Hunter, you'll be greatly missed. Thanks for all the amazing care to myself and my family over the years. xo
He is simply the best doctor I have ever had. He is easy to talk to, very knowledgeable and just good man!
Dr Hunter is indeed one of the most intelligent, smart doctors around. He was able to diagnose a potentially irreversible condition immediately,and took it very seriously. My own, long term GP didnt even querie about it for 3 yrs even though it was related to a disease I already had for 20 yrs. Just as she did not any other disasteruos preventible conditions. Dr Hunter's capability was confirmed to me yet again when visiting my opthamologist and in conversation he said himself that Dr Hunter is a very smart doctor.Don't I know it! Thank you Dr Hunter.
Genuine , caring, knowledgable, fantastic doctor. I wouldn't go to anyone else
Excellent doctor. Doesn't make you feel embarrassed or ashamed. Treats people with dignity!! Very knowledgeable and caring.
Amazing Doctor. Have been visiting him for years and years, and he has always shown the utmost care for his patients. Having had some very nasty experiences with doctors, he is THE best doctor in Vancouver as far as I'm concerned.
Awesome, just awesome. Great doc, superb person. He takes the time to listen, gives you the advice you need, and follows up to make sure you're doing ok. We followed him from Brentwood Medical to his new location because we don't want to even consider seeing someone else. Thanks a millino Dr. Hunter! Keep up the awesome work. You truly are a service to your community.
I adore Dr.Hunter -- he is worth waiting an entire day at the Walk-in-clinic just to see him. I would not spend a day-off work waiting in a clinic to just see any doctor, but I would book a day-off work just to go see him. Dr. Hunter is very polite and mild mannered, easy to talk to and caring. He is never rude or weird or arrogant. He is always helpful and genuinely provides good care. Even after I moved from Burnaby, I still travel back to Burnaby to wait in line at the clinic to see him. I only wish he worked out of his own office!

The NSW government will invest $53 billion in state transport infrastructure over the next four years, including a project to build light rail through Sydney's CBD and shut nearly half of George Street to non-essential traffic.
State transport minister
The strategy includes 220 short, medium and long-term priorities. Current estimates are that about $13 billion in capital costs and recurrent spending for annual upgrades and maintenance could be spent each year, taking the possible cost for the two decade project up to $260 billion.
Part of the revitalisation includes plans to pedestrianise the city's primary thoroughfare, George Street and install light rail to replace private vehicles.
However, there are concerns that the light rail project will not solve congestions issues and merely contribute to the problem by forcing cars into alternative busy roads such as Elizabeth Street.
The government has confirmed money for the projects will come from the already budgeted $61.8 billion set aside to fund infrastructure projects across all its portfolios.
But Greens MP and transport spokeswoman Cate Faehrmann labelled the masterplan "unambitious" and forecast it would be a "huge failure.
Ms Faehrmann said the government's light rail proposal was not even funded.
"Tollways will not get Sydney moving. By scrapping the Westconnex we'd have $1.8 billion to bring light rail and the second harbour rail crossing forward."
Treasurer Mike Baird said a range of funding sources would be used to deliver the strategy, including Restart NSW and public-private partnerships.
The government's asset transaction program is expected to fund Restart NSW, which has already banked about $344 million from the sale of Waratah bonds and revenue from leasing the desalination plant.
However the treasurer left open its response to earlier suggestions from Infrastructure NSW chairman and former state premier
Mr Baird said they forecast the lease of Port Botany and Port Kembla facilities and the sale of the remaining electricity generators will net the government between $5 billion and $6 billion.
The government's flagship $1.6 billion, 12-kilometre light rail development will run from Circular Quay up George Street via Central Station, linking Moore Park, Randwick Racecourse, University of New South Wales and the Prince of Wales Hospital at Randwick. Construction is expected to begin in 2014.
Forty per cent of George Street between Bathurst and Hunter Streets – representing the area between Wynyard and Town Hall station – will be pedestrianised to make way for the light rail. Emergency vehicles and small delivery trucks will still be able to gain access to the area.
Infrastructure Partnerships Australia chief executive Brendan Lyon said plans to deliver the light rail as a PPP would drive innovation and ensure global best practice. "Strong interest [is] expected from firms both in Australia and overseas," he said today.
Mr Lyon said the removal of 220 buses from the CBD during morning peak hour, as a result of the light rail would clear congestion and create opportunities to increase functionality of George Street, if done well.
Mr Greiner previously expressed his opposition to light rail in Sydney, with the Infrastructure NSW report proposing a rapid transit tunnel for buses from Sydney Harbour Bridge to Town Hall as an alternative.
"Light rail down George Street does not work remotely well as a mass-transit activity," Mr Greiner has said.
"To do something that runs the risk of gridlocking... the CBD more than it already is, is a huge risk and you should not go there lightly."
But City of Sydney mayor Clover Moore said the plan was a huge win for Sydney.
"Congestion costs Sydney businesses and residents an estimated $5.1 billion a year, and that's projected to rise to $8.8 billion by 2021.
"Doing nothing is not an option. Our train system is reaching capacity, bus passengers face major delays, our roads are grinding to a halt and our footpaths are overcrowded," she said.
Sydney Business Chamber executive director
Ms Forsythe said the development of key precincts such as Barangaroo, Haymarket and the Entertainment precinct necessitated a "fresh approach to transport".
"Common sense will tell us that building a light rail system in the CBD especially in George Street will not be without its challenges and there will be difficulty during the construction phase," she said on Thursday. But she added that they were similar to challenges faced during the building of the city circle line and upgrades to Harbour Bridge access.
Transport and Tourism Forum deputy chief executive Trent Zimmerman said the decision to build a second harbour crossing for heavy rail, which includes passenger and transport trains was the "most important transport project for the future capacity of Sydney's entire railway system".
However, the plan is in stark contrast to suggestions from Infrastructure NSW, which concluded in October that a well-run bus network would be the most appropriate way to meet transport needs over the next 20 years.
Mr Greiner advised against a second heavy rail harbour crossing, but the government confirmed on Thursday that it would go ahead once the North West rail link was complete sometime between 2017 and 2022.
Australian Railway Association chief executive
"Trying to cure traffic congestion by adding more road capacity is like trying to cure obesity by loosening your belt," he said in response to its plan to spend $6 billion on road projects in NSW.
ARA estimates that a single rail line running at full capacity is equivalent to a 10-lane freeway.
Train stations including Town Hall, Central, Redfern, Wynyard and Circular Quay will be upgraded and expanded, and Sydney's bus network will be re-designed.

Beirut: Syrian rebels linked to al-Qaeda have taken control of a key border crossing connecting Turkey to Syria's Latakia province, considered the heart of support for the government of President Bashar al-Assad, in heavy fighting that took the lives of three members of the Assad family.
The offensive has been led by the Nusra Front, al-Qaeda's official Syrian franchise, and the Islamic Front, a broad coalition of Islamist fighters that includes the al-Qaeda-linked group Ahrar al-Sham.
On Monday, the official social media accounts of the Islamic Front released photos of its fighters taking control of the border crossing, although reports said that fighting for control of the area was continuing.
Latakia has both symbolic and strategic importance, connecting the rest of Syria to the Mediterranean Sea. Russia maintains a military facility at the Latakia port city of Tartus.
The importance of the region to the Assad regime is reflected in the command structure of the National Defence Force there. On Sunday, Syrian state television announced the death in the fighting of the local defence force commander, Hilal Assad, a distant cousin of the president.
On Monday, Syria announced the deaths of two other cousins of the president, Ali and Kifah Assad, though it was unclear if they were killed separately of Hilal, who died when rockets fired by rebels targeted his command post. Both men were rumoured to have been in command positions in the National Defence Force and could have been killed in the same incident.
A group that is part of the Islamic Front, Jaysh al-Islam, issued a statement detailing Hilal Assad's death.
"The first rocket was fired around 7.15pm, followed by another five minutes later," the statement said. "The rockets targeted a house where Hilal was holding a meeting with other members of the National Defence Force."
Syria accused the rebels and Turkey of using the Turkish side of the border crossing to ambush Syrian government forces, a day after Turkish jets downed a Syrian fighter-bomber. Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said the decision to down the jet had brought expressions of solidarity from Turkey's NATO allied.
"Turkey will respond to any violation of its borders," Dr Davutoglu said. "No one should dare to test power of Turkey."

Merry Christmas EVE
I love these little Steinbach Christmas ornaments. They're so cute. Steinback is the German company that makes the big nut crackers. Too cute. I usually pick up one each Christmas. I need to get a baker one for my DH, he's always baking bread.
It's Christmas Eve, and DH is downstairs putting together the "big" present for the kids. I'm finally getting a little excited. I'm trying to put the bad stuff behind me and just be with my kids and hubby.
We decided that after church this evening, we'll get some hot cocoa and jump in the car and check out the lights. I still need to do some present wrapping. Time is flying by, and here I am blogging!
My son wanted a guitar, and it finally came today! Delivered by Santa wearing a brown uniform and driving a big brown van! LOL! Bet you didn't know that's what Santa wears nowadays!
Here's the brown box! No peeking inside yet!!
I also won a RAK from Liz Ness! I was very excited. Look!
And, here are all the goodies I won! Wow, can't wait to get those stamps!!
Merry Christmas everyone!

A more tight-fisted approach to media advertising by the federal, South Australian, Northern Territory and West Australian governments did not stop the total government advertising category from growing last year.
According to data collected by The Nielsen Company, government ad spending rose 2.9 per cent to $455.6 million during 2010.
The federal government took the top spot in the category, although its ad budget fell 12 per cent – or $16 million – to $114.2 million. The NT government cut its spending 13 per cent, while the SA and WA governments respectively trimmed their ad budgets by 3 per cent and 0.2 per cent.
The budget cuts by four governments were more than compensated by hefty increases in ad spending by the NSW and Victorian governments and a more modest lift in the Queensland government's ad budget.
The Victorian government's budget rose 11.7 per cent to $103.9 million ahead of the state election on November 27. The NSW election two days ago triggered a 19.9 per cent jump in the NSW government's ad spending during 2010, to
$81.3 million.
"The spending patterns by governments are unbelievably predictable, be they federal or state, Labor or Liberal," said Peter Cornelius, managing director of Nielsen's Asia-Pacific media division.
"Governments cut ad spending during their first term, then increase it as they head to the end of their term."
The Queensland government's ad budget rose 6.2 per cent to $61.2 million, including the $16.4 million spent promoting the float of QR National on November 22.
The money spent on ad campaigns for last year's federal election was not enough to put any political party on the list of the 25 biggest advertisers.
Nielsen estimated $39.7 million was spent on federal election advertising, including $15 million spent by Labor, $13.7 million by the Liberals and $3.8 million by the ACTU.

6 Reasons To Consider Drug And Alcohol Rehab For Yourself Or A Friend
Precious few people have lived a life entirely untouched by alcohol or drug abuse of some form. There are those who struggle with these addictions themselves and then there are those with a parent, friend, sibling, child or significant other who has battled substance abuse. There are those who've been the victim of a crime committed by a person with an addiction. All of us, in some way, have been touched if only through poignant stories so it is not as if we do not know the dangers. Still, each year more and more people discover they have a serious addiction and that they need help. This is what drug and alcohol rehab programs exist to do. They are all about helping a person get back on their feet. What we want to do now is explore 6 powerful reasons people seek these programs out. Maybe one applies to you or maybe some of these are something you can mention to someone you care about in order to encourage them to get help.
1. Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs Save Lives While Promoting Health
This is perhaps the most obvious and that's why it's first. Drugs and alcohol both dole significant damage out to the body. People who are trying to recover do need help which is why drug and alcohol rehab programs are so crucial. No matter where your addiction is coming from, there are now techniques out there which can help you save yourself before its too late. Health care is expensive these days and people can and do die from drug and alcohol abuse related health concerns. Don't let this happen to you – seek help and get back to your life again.
2. The Cost of Drug and Alcohol Rehab is Cheaper Than Addiction
When a person has an addiction, they will spend money on it even if they have next to nothing. Some will even resort to theft or worse to get the cash they need. This is an economic problem and it is tied right in with addiction. Some people thing drug and alcohol rehab programs cost too much, but when you look at what you save buying your substance of choice, paying for any legal fees that come up, paying for health care bills later and so forth, then you really see the true expense of an addiction. They do not come cheap and they have ruined millions of people's financial lives which impacted the rest of their lives.
3. In Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs People Can Rebuild Key Relationships
People lose friends when they abuse alcohol or drugs. They may make new ones, but these people are often only around due to the substances being abused. Once that stops they move on to others who are still using. If you've lost contact with friends you used to have, family and perhaps even lost the trust of your employer then you need to take action. Seeking help is important if you want to be able to rebuild damaged relationships which is easier to do during and after rehab.
4. Kids Benefit When Parents Choose the Best Drug and Alcohol Rehab
Parents may feel this should be the number 1 reason to seek help. For many it will be exactly that. The point is, you can lose custody of your kids if substance abuse consumes your life or if you get caught with illicit substances. Nothing is worth that so rehab is a far, far better choice. Your kids will see your strength as a person and know you've set a good example for them.
5. You Only Have One Life So Make It a Quality One
This is the heart of it all. We really do have one chance to make this life as good as it can be and if substance abuse is ruining your ability to enjoy anything except drugs or alcohol, it's not a good life. Other things make people happy and finding out what really works to make you personally happy can happen once your addiction subsides. No one promises that rehab will be easy or that life takes on a perfect, rosy glow forever after, but it's worth getting your life back. Then you know that each day belongs to you, not to whoever used to sell you what you needed to cope with life. That's an important realization that can literally change your life for the better in a powerful way.
6. Finding a Drug and Alcohol Rehab is Much Easier Today
A lot of people think that it will be hard for them to find help, but nothing could be further from the truth. It's easier today than it ever has been to get the kind of help you need. There are a lot of resources out there and when you turn to the web it is easy to learn about your options. This is a great way to go that is sure to pay off in dividends. The other 5 top reasons really to show that for those who decide to quit and make a new life, the benefits are huge.

Preeclampsia sometimes develops without any symptoms. High blood pressure may develop slowly, or it may have a sudden onset. Monitoring your blood pressure is an important part of prenatal care because the first sign of preeclampsia is commonly a rise in blood pressure. Blood pressure that exceeds 140/90 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or greater — documented on two occasions, at least four hours apart — is abnormal.
Other signs and symptoms of preeclampsia may include:
Sudden weight gain and swelling (edema) — particularly in your face and hands — may occur with preeclampsia. But these also occur in many normal pregnancies, so they're not considered reliable signs of preeclampsia.
Make sure you attend your prenatal visits so that your care provider can monitor your blood pressure. Contact your doctor immediately or go to an emergency room if you have severe headaches, blurred vision or other visual disturbance, severe pain in your abdomen, or severe shortness of breath.
Because headaches, nausea, and aches and pains are common pregnancy complaints, it's difficult to know when new symptoms are simply part of being pregnant and when they may indicate a serious problem — especially if it's your first pregnancy. If you're concerned about your symptoms, contact your doctor.
The exact cause of preeclampsia involves several factors. Experts believe it begins in the placenta — the organ that nourishes the fetus throughout pregnancy. Early in pregnancy, new blood vessels develop and evolve to efficiently send blood to the placenta.
In women with preeclampsia, these blood vessels don't seem to develop or function properly. They're narrower than normal blood vessels and react differently to hormonal signaling, which limits the amount of blood that can flow through them.
Causes of this abnormal development may include:
Preeclampsia is classified as one of four high blood pressure disorders that can occur during pregnancy. The other three are:
Preeclampsia develops only as a complication of pregnancy. Risk factors include:
The more severe your preeclampsia and the earlier it occurs in your pregnancy, the greater the risks for you and your baby. Preeclampsia may require induced labor and delivery.
Delivery by cesarean delivery (C-section) may be necessary if there are clinical or obstetric conditions that require a speedy delivery. Your obstetric provider will assist you in deciding what type of delivery is correct for your condition.
Complications of preeclampsia may include:
HELLP syndrome. HELLP — which stands for hemolysis (the destruction of red blood cells), elevated liver enzymes and low platelet count — syndrome is a more severe form of preeclampsia, and can rapidly become life-threatening for both you and your baby.
Symptoms of HELLP syndrome include nausea and vomiting, headache, and upper right abdominal pain. HELLP syndrome is particularly dangerous because it represents damage to several organ systems. On occasion, it may develop suddenly, even before high blood pressure is detected or it may develop without any symptoms at all.
Eclampsia. When preeclampsia isn't controlled, eclampsia — which is essentially preeclampsia plus seizures — can develop. It is very difficult to predict which patients will have preeclampsia that is severe enough to result in eclampsia.
Often, there are no symptoms or warning signs to predict eclampsia. Because eclampsia can have serious consequences for both mom and baby, delivery becomes necessary, regardless of how far along the pregnancy is.

Regards the Offsec course. There was a thread just recently discussing it, and a few people who have attended the course made some pretty detailed comments. In particular, I went over the circumstances under which I do and don't recommend people take the course. Your first test (should you choose to accept it) is to find that thread. You do need to be able to track things down on your own to be successful in the PWB course.
Next - do you have a good understanding of TCP/IP? By that I mean have you spent time looking at packet captures, configuring IP clients and servers, troubleshooting communication problems, etc? Have you attended any TCP/IP focused courses (e.g. CCNA) or read and understood any good TCP/IP references (The Richard W Stevens book for example). Know what DNS is and how it works? Have you run a port scanner or a vulnerability scanner before? Do you understand how they work? If so you should probably be OK for the information gathering/scanning phases of the course.
Third, try the free Metasploit Unleashed course. If you can follow all of it (by that I mean understand whats going on, and be able to take what you learned in the cours and apply it in different situations), then you should be OK for the exploitation portion of the course. Next Id recommend trying some of these buffer overflow exploit tutorials. If you can follow at least the first one or two you should be OK for the exploit writing sections of the course.
If you're OK with all of that you should be OK with the Offsec course. It probably has higher entry requirements than most other similar IT security style courses, but if you're willing to put in the effort you should be OK.

Christine Matthews: Republican contradictions
Byline info is not available
Friday, May 04, 2012 6:13 AM
By CHRISTINE MATTHEWS
WASHINGTON - Republican primary voters in Indiana say they want a U.S. Senator "to focus first on trying to solve many of our country's problems, even if that means working with elected officials across the aisle to do it," (60%) versus a U.S. Senator "to focus first on standing up for conservative principles, even if that means not working with elected officials across the aisle to solve problems" (30%).
Yet, on the cusp of the May 8th election, they appear poised to elect someone who believes "We don't need bipartisanship as much as we need the application of principle." (Richard Mourdock, Evansville Courier & Press, April, 2012). Challenger Richard Mourdock leads incumbent Senator Richard Lugar by a 43%-35% margin which expands to 48% to 38% when initial undecideds leaning toward a candidate are included.
So, what to make of this apparent contradiction?
Actually, Mourdock supporters are about evenly split on this question: 48% want a problem solver vs. 46% want conservative principles first. Lugar supporters, however, overwhelmingly want someone to solve problems first (78%) vs. putting principles ahead of bipartisan problem solving (17%).
However, while voters may differ on what brand of conservative they want to send to Washington, and even express a preference for bipartisan problem solving, the race really boils down to this: Close to three-fourths of voters supporting Richard Mourdock say it's because of Lugar's longevity or age or the fact that he lives in Virginia. These voters think Indiana's senior senator has served too long. The comments relating to Lugar being too liberal, or Obama's favorite Republican, or voting for his Supreme Court Justices account for just about 15% of the reasons given for supporting Mr. Mourdock. In fact, while the Senator's support for the DREAM Act is one of the main arguments Tea Party groups make against Senator Lugar, the majority of GOP primary voters say they support it (54%), while only about one-third oppose it. And Lugar's support of the DREAM Act did not register as a reason, specifically, for supporting Mourdock.
What's happened since our last survey in late March is that Mr. Mourdock is now capturing a majority of the vote among those who identify as Republicans (51% - 36%) whereas Senator Lugar has remained very close to the level of support he got in March (38%) when the two candidates were tied. All the voters we interviewed for this survey have a past history of voting in a Republican primary, but roughly one-fourth identify initially as independent. Among these self-identifying independent voters, Senator Lugar has a narrow edge (41%-38%). He needs a strong showing among independent-leaning primary voters to compensate for Mr. Mourdock's lead among Republicans. However, because the race appears to hinge as much, if not more, on longevity as ideology, adding independents may less dramatically accrue to Senator Lugar's benefit. [1]
Unlike a general electorate, the majority of Republican primary voters tend to be male and they are breaking toward the challenger by a 52%-36% margin. Among women, the race is closer with 44% for Mourdock and 39% for Lugar. Nearly six in ten of the remaining undecided voters are women.
A plurality (44%) of primary voters identifies themselves as "very conservative" and, not surprisingly, they overwhelmingly favor Mr. Mourdock (63%-26%). So the balance of the electorate is somewhat conservative (33%) or moderate (19%) and, to win, Mr. Lugar would have to dominate among these voters. The problem for Senator Lugar, is that Mr. Mourdock is also winning the less conservative voters (43%-41%), so that the senator carries only moderate voters (60%-26%).
Generally, the rule of thumb is that undecided voters break two or three to one for the challenger. That may be true here, but the demographics of the undecideds give Lugar a shot. Nearly six in ten are women with whom he fares better. They are less conservative and more independent leaning than voters overall. The endorsements of Governor Mitch Daniels and the Indiana Right to Life carry the most weight with them, as with voters overall. They are much less likely to have an opinion of either candidate (33% favorable – 24% unfavorable for Lugar and 21% favorable – 17% unfavorable for Mourdock), but have become more unfavorable toward both over the past few weeks – mostly likely as a result of all the negative television ads.
About one third of voters say their opinion of Senator Lugar has become less favorable over the past week or so, compared with about a quarter trending negative for Mr. Mourdock.
While Lugar has a slight edge over Mourdock on general electability, enough voters think both would fare equally well against Democrat Joe Donnelly that this argument doesn't help much. And Mourdock has a similar edge on what may be a more important voting consideration, which is, "shares my values."
We conducted our polling on Monday (April 30) and Tuesday (May 1), ending a full week ahead of the May 8 primary. Of course, the last week before a primary campaign can be very fluid; things can change. But, without any new data to conclude otherwise, it certainly looks as if the momentum has shifted toward Richard Mourdock.
[1] Of course, one could argue that this primary will attract some voters with no history of voting in a Republican primary. In addition to the 700 interviews we conducted, we also dialed a separate list of voters with no primary vote history but who voted in the 2008 and 2010 general elections. We did not dial known Democratic primary voters. We stopped calling after the first night, after obtaining 50 interviews because: 1.) the calls are expensive due to the lower number that qualify as likely GOP primary voters and 2.) they were breaking for Mr. Mourdock in a similar fashion to our 700 sample of past GOP primary voters. Those 50 additional interviews are not included in our results. Our thought was to obtain these interviews in case we needed to model what an expanded electorate might look like in the event of a very close contest. While we only did 50 interviews, if the voters were breaking strongly for Senator Lugar and the race were virtually tied, an argument could be made that this could be a factor, but only with a race that is close enough that it could be decided by non-traditional voters.

Trump targets Mueller, assails Sessions in NYT interview
"I think that's a violation. I can't answer that question because I don't think it's going to happen."
President Trump
to the New York Times on whether he'd fire special counsel
Robert Mueller
if the probe went beyond Russian collusion, and into his finances. Trump also blasted
Attorney General Jeff Sessions
, saying, "Sessions should have never recused himself, and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me before he took the job and I would have picked somebody else."
Godspeed, John McCain
"I greatly appreciate the outpouring of support - unfortunately for my sparring partners in Congress, I'll be back soon, so stand-by!" With that
U.S. Sen. John McCain
vowed to take on the greatest fight of his life, against glioblastoma brain cancer he was diagnosed this week. If anyone is up to it - and I've known two people who have beat the odds - it would be McCain. He followed his vice admiral father and grandfather into the U.S. Navy, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy. He became an aviator, survived a fire on the USS Forerestal in 1967, then was shot down on a bombing mission over Hanoi later that year. He was a POW until 1973, facing torture, turning down at least one repatriation. And he was the 2000 Republican presidential nominee. So godspeed, John McCain, an enduring and brave American ready for the next fight.

"Clos" is a French term for an individual, distinct vineyard, usually enclosed by a wall. Perhaps the most famous clos in France is the Clos de Vougeot in Burgundy.
Clos Clare, about a kilometre south of Watervale in South Australia's Clare Valley region, is a two-hectare subdivision of the larger Florita vineyard.
It once provided grapes for many fine Leo Buring rieslings, but has been owned by family wine company Jim Barry since 1986. The charming late 19th century villa on the property was once the home of artist and building conservator Ian Saunders, who established clos Clare and created the distinctive artwork on the label.
While the vineyard is not enclosed, it does yield high quality and highly valued fruit. This is reflected in many of its wines, even though there have been several changes in ownership and in the winemakers responsible for crafting the wines.
So it was that Ian Saunders sold the place to Noel Kelly in 1996, who passed the property onto the Barrys when he retired.
Jeffrey Grosset was responsible for the winemakers until 2003 and O'Leary Walker from 2004 to 2007, after which the Barrys took the task on when they purchased the property from Kelly, unifying ownership of the entire site.
Riesling is the star of the site – and of the broader Watervale district – and it is for this gently aromatic white grape variety that clos Clare has earned its considerable reputation.
So I could not refuse an invitation to a vertical tasting of clos Clare riesling – from the 1998 vintage to the present, including the not quite bottled 2012 – during the Clare Valley Gourmet Weekend. Making it more intriguing as a tasting were another couple of variables.
Until 1999 the wines were sealed under cork, then under screwcap. And from 2008 the wines have been under the respectful eye of Tom and Sam Barry, although the winemaking has been handled by Daniel Wilson, of The Wilson Vineyard at Polish Hill River.
So the question I wanted answered was, with all the variables involved – the changes in ownership and winemaking, and the various vintage vicissitudes – did vineyard character emerge at all through the tasting?
Much to my surprise, I'd have to say "yes". I'd describe it as a quite assertive, bittersweet lime character on the finish of the wine. The younger wines had this character, while the older ones exhibited a more crystallised citrus flavour. It was in every wine, although it seemed to hide completely in the more extreme vintages such as 2011 (wet, cold), 2006 (hail, late rain), 2004 (dry, alternating extreme heat and cold), 2002 (late, dry, cold), and 2000 (heat, sunburn).
But in more even riesling years such as '96 and '98, and '09, '10 and '12, it shined through. Even in the 2000 vintage wine there was a distinct bitter-candy character. (All three bottles of the '99 were stuffed by the way – so the '96 was inserted as a replacement).
Now I may be getting a little carried away in identifying this "clos Clare character". But over the past few years I've spent time in Watervale, and tasted extensively from three other nearby vineyards, all a little to the north of Watervale, and my notes do not reflect the strength of this character as it appears in the clos Clare rieslings.
So perhaps there's something in it after all. It may lack a wall, but clos Clare has already established solid foundations.

Governor Nixon Announces His Intent to Establish WGU Missouri
In his January 28 State of the State Address, Governor Nixon announced his intention to establish WGU Missouri in partnership with Western Governors University. Western Governors University looks forward to expanding access to higher education for Missouri residents.
"Now, we've made it our mission to help more high school students graduate, go to college, complete their degrees and enter the workforce. That's the traditional path. And I'm glad more students are taking it. But there are nearly 750,000 Missourians who started college but never completed their degrees. They left school, got jobs, started families, moved on with their lives. At this point, some of these folks may feel that going back to college is too expensive, or too hard to juggle with work and raising kids.
I want to change that and help these adult students finish the degrees they started years ago, so they can get better jobs and meet their full earning potential. This year, we'll do more to help these adult students finish their degrees online, from an accredited university that's putting down new roots in Missouri. Let me tell you about its history.
In 1995, 19 governors came together to provide a realistic option to help adult students complete their degrees at an affordable price. They founded Western Governors University, a nonprofit institution that offers bachelors and masters degrees in four areas Missouri's employers are looking for: business, health care, teacher preparation and information technology. The point is that with today's technology, we can make it easier than ever for folks to finish their degrees without disrupting their lives, and help them move up the economic ladder.
It's designed to meet the needs of real people with real lives. You can take your tests after work, on weekends or at night, after the kids are asleep. Instead of paying tuition by the credit hour, students can take as much coursework as they want for a flat rate. And how quickly you earn your degree depends on how quickly you master the subject matter: you advance at your own pace.
In the past three years, Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, and the states of Texas and Washington have established WGU in their states. And starting this year, we will begin enrolling students at WGU Missouri.
We'll be helping Missourians who never finished college, who are underemployed and who need degrees to move up, reach their full potential. Now that's a mission we can all get behind."

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 22.0287 Thursday, 3 November 2011
Date: October 30, 2011 4:32:25 AM EDT
Subject: Medieval and Early Modern Authorship
Medieval and Early Modern Authorship
Edited by Guillemette Bolens and Lukas Erne
"This rich, challenging and exceptionally well conceived collection addresses the construction of authorship in medieval and early modern England, and revises received opinion in important ways. All the essays are worth attention; several should be considered essential reading."
Stephen Orgel, J. E. Reynolds Professor in the Humanities,Stanford University
Reports of his death having been greatly exaggerated, the author has made a spectacular return in English studies. This is the first book devoted to medieval and early modern authorship, exploring continuities, discontinuities, and innovations in the two periods which literary histories and institutional practices too often keep apart. Canonical authors receive sustained attention (notably Chaucer, Gower, Shakespeare, Jonson, Milton, and Marvell), and so do key issues in the current scholarly debate, such as authorial self-fashioning, the fictionalisation of authorship, the posthumous construction of authorship, and the nexus of authorship and authority. Other important topics whose relations to authorship are explored include adaptation, paratext, portraiture, historiography, hagiography, theology, and the sublime.

This is a helpful way to get a big picture of where your
family branches migrated over time, see where families connected
or branched off, and note geographic similarities (in my research,
for example, I've noticed that most of my Germans on Mom's and
Dad's side came from the same area in what's now Germany).
PedigreeMap is located under the Apps tab in your MyHeritage tree.
You can zoom in and out on the map, click a location to see a list
of all the events or photos associated with it, view all the
places associated with a particular individual or subset of
individuals (a person's extended family, immediate family, etc.),
and more. Read
more about this tool and get tips for using it on the MyHeritage
The Geni world family tree website, which is owned by
MyHeritage, announced today that it's partnering with Family Tree
DNA to integrate autosomal, Y and mitochondrial DNA test results
into Geni trees. Read

|I was pleasantly surprised by how good this route is; when I saw "ramp" in the name, I envisioned something along the lines of easy inclined ledges, but it's nothing like that at all. Each of the corner systems has its own little sequences to solve, and most end at a fairly comfortable stance where you can scope out the next section. Make sure your belayer is spotting you on the hard start. Overall, an excellent 5.8.

Canada's Response to the Earthquake in Chile
A strong earthquake of magnitude 8.8 struck near the coast of Chile on February 27, 2010. This was the country's largest earthquake in 25 years. The earthquake generated a tsunami, which affected a coastal strip of more than 500 kilometres, and numerous aftershocks continue to cause damage.
Reports indicate that hundreds of people have been killed and that the earthquake caused extensive damage to infrastructure. Power and telecommunications have been severely disrupted. Canadian government officials are currently assessing the situation to clarify the extent of the damage in Chile as well as to assess the potential impact on Canadians who are present in the country.
Government Response to the Earthquake
- In response to a request for international assistance from the Government of Chile, the Government of Canada announced on March 2, 2010 that it will provide up to $2 million for urgent humanitarian assistance to the people of Chile.
- Also on March 2, Canadian Embassy officials arrived in the city of Concepción to gain a first hand assessment of the extent of the damage and to make contact with Canadians believed to be in the region, but with whom the Embassy had not yet been able to make contact. The department is now providing consular assistance to those Canadians whom we have been able to contact.
Travel Reports
Travel Report and Warnings
Please consult our Chile Travel Report.
Assistance for Canadians in Chile
Canadians seeking emergency consular assistance in the area should contact the Emergency Operations Centre or call 613-996-8885 collect. The Operations Centre of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
How Canadians Can Help
The best way for Canadians to help is to donate money—not clothing or food—to the registered charity of your choice. In order to avoid potential fraud, we urge you to check to see if your preferred charity is registered before you give.

Cards Flirt With Perfection, Hold Off K-Mets In Nightcap
August 14, 2012 9:23 PM ET
After spending most of the nightcap of Tuesday's doubleheader on the ugly end of a potential perfect game, the Kingsport Mets nearly staged a successful comeback. The K-Mets had the tying run at the plate when their 4-2 loss to the Johnson City Cardinals concluded.
Kingsport didn't even get its first base runner until the bottom of the fifth inning, when Jeyckol De Leon doubled down the left-field line. Until then, Cardinals starter Thomas Lee (2-4) had retired the first 13 men he faced. De Leon's double broke up the perfect game as well as the no-hitter.
The shutout followed in the bottom of the seventh, and De Leon was the culprit again. This time, Jorge Rivero and Gavin Cecchini set the table with singles, and De Leon brought them home on a double he lined off the outfield wall in left. That made it a 4-2 game and chased Lee from the mound in favor of Cardinals closer Ronald Shaban, who fanned Anthony Chavez and got pinch-hitter Jon Leroux to ground out to tally his 13th save of the Appalachian League season.
Johnson City got its offense by either the long ball or the unearned run. Jeremy Schaffer, who hit a towering homer to left in the opener of Tuesday's twin bill, belted another in almost the exact same spot in the second inning off Persio Reyes. Reyes (3-5) made another mistake in the sixth, and Bruce Caldwell crushed his off-speed pitch and took it over the center-field wall.
A passed ball resulted in a third-inning run being unearned, and the Cards tallied what proved to be an important insurance run in the seventh when newly entered Kingsport reliever Christian Chivilli air-mailed a throw to first base on C.J. McElroy Jr.'s squib groundball. The two-base error allowed Ronard Castillo to come around from second and score.
NOTES: The Kingsport Mets are in the midst of a brutal stretch in their schedule. They continue a four-game series with Johnson City, which is currently tied for second place in the West, on Wednesday night and Thursday. The K-Mets then hit the road for 11 straight road games in a nine-day span, beginning with a three-game set at West leader Elizabethton and continuing with five games in three nights with the Burlington Royals, the East's first-place team. Elizabethton and Burlington are, combined, 37 games over the .500 mark. ... McElroy, the son of former veteran big league pitcher Chuck McElroy, had two hits, an RBI and a stolen base out of the leadoff spot in the Johnson City lineup. ... Lee threw just 76 pitches in 6 1-3 innings. ... Reyes was also efficient, throwing 72 pitches in six innings of work. ... Kingsport had swept its other two home doubleheaders this season.

Performing bodies : narrative, representation, and children's storytelling
Mallan, Kerry M. (2003) Performing bodies : narrative, representation, and children's storytelling. Post Pressed, Australia, Queensland, Flaxton.
'Children appear to know the importance of storytelling as if by instinct. From a very early age their play takes the form of story; sometimes they term their story play "pretend." ...They delight in using what comes to hand; they are small bricoleurs who make barbecues or bowls out of sticks of wood, or who fashion snowballs that make noise and need to be hushed, or who build tents or caves with a blanket...Mallan's book is an important contribution to our understanding of how story works and of how storytelling functions as a social, political, and educative activity.'

Pumpkin Pie Spice Cookie Butter
November 9, 2015—Fearlessly Archived—Still a fun read; price & availability may have changed.
Have we gone too far? Has pumpkin mania reached its apex? Will the Earth's core explode and bring everything to an end? Gosh, we hope not; we're just really fond of pushing boundaries. The latest boundary we've smashed through resulted in the creation of Trader Joe's Pumpkin Pie Spice Cookie Butter. It's exactly what you think it is, and then some. Pumpkin Pie Spice Cookie Butter began as a twinkle in our eyes, and a box of Pumpkin Joe Joe's. The cookies are transformed into smooth and creamy cookie butter, with real pumpkin purée blended in to seriously amp up the pumpkin flavor. Grab a spoon and take a taste - pumpkin pie, right? We've even left some crunchy cookie pieces, which are quite good at representing pie crust in this creation.
Like its Pumpkin Season siblings, Pumpkin Pie Spice Cookie Butter is available in limited supply, for a limited time. How you might enjoy it is only limited by your imagination. Apple or pear slices, toast or bagels, milkshakes or smoothies… We're selling each 14.1 ounce jar for $3.69, while it lasts.
