The large-scale renovation of the Brooklyn Bridge has drivers concerned about the heightened level of congestion that will result when the Manhattan-bound lanes close and traffic is rerouted to the Manhattan Bridge.
Sparked by the 2007 bridge collapse in Minneapolis that took 13 lives, the $500 million renovation project, which begins in June, will repair some components of the over-all structurally sound Brooklyn Bridge that state inspectors rated as "poor" and in need of repair, the Brooklyn Paper reports.
The 126-year-old bridge will get both safety and cosmetic fixes, including new paint job, deck resurfacing, and rehabilitation and widening of the bridge's ramps and approaches. These measures, when completed, are promised to reduce congestion for the 100,000 drivers who utilize the bridge.
But during the four-year renovation, traffic lanes will be closed on weeknights from 11 pm to 6 am, on Saturdays from midnight to 7 am, and Sundays from midnight to 9 am. While all six lanes will be open for rush hour, single lane in each direction will be closed during off-peak hours.
And throughout the course of the project, the Manhattan-bound side of the bridge will be entirely closed for up to 24 weekends.
"The traffic will increase tremendously," Captain Vanessa Kight, an executive officer at the 84th Precinct, told the Brooklyn Paper.
The Manhattan Bridge is expected to get about 80 percent of the detoured vehicles, according to the Brooklyn Paper, and drivers will be diverted to the Flatbush Avenue and Tillary Street intersection to get to the alternative bridge.
In the end, the renovation will give travelers a smoother ride, with completely replaced approach roadways, two more lanes of free-flowing traffic at the Cadman Plaza exit and from the southbound FDR drive onto the bridge.
The bridge will also get a fresh coat of "Queensborough tan," a new coffee-colored paint, after contractors blast away the existing coat of paint and cover the span with protective wrap to prevent the spread of lead particles. The paint job itself will take two years, and will be done during the evenings and early mornings, typical times of traffic.
But the assurance of a better commuting experience upon the renovation's completion is doing little to sooth concerns of drivers.
"Parking is already horrible," Brooklyn Heights resident Kathlene Gates told the Brooklyn Paper, fearing that the area will get even worse.
Non-motorists, though, can rest easy -- the bridge span will be open to pedestrians and cyclists during the entire renovation.

Rays' Chris Archer earns July AL pitcher and rookie honors
Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Chris Archer was named the American League pitcher of the month and AL rookie of the month for July, Major League Baseball announced Monday.
Archer, 24, was 4-0 with a 0.73 ERA in five July starts. He had 22 strikeouts with two shutouts and seven walks in 37 innings during the month. Among major league rookies, Archer was first in wins and shutouts, and he led all rookies with a minimum of 27 innings pitched in ERA.
Article continues below ...
Archer's honors mark the sixth time since the rookie of the month award was introduced in 2001 that a player or pitcher of the month award-winner has earned rookie honors in the same month. Others to achieve the feat include the Florida Marlins' Dontrelle Willis (June 2003), Milwaukee Brewers' Ryan Braun (July 2007), Rays' Jeremy Hellickson (May 2011), Los Angeles Angels' Mike Trout (July 2012) and Los Angeles Dodgers' Yasiel Puig (July 2013).
Archer is 6-4 with a 2.65 ERA in 12 starts this season. He is scheduled to start Wednesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field.

That's probably the most sought after query on web - most people want to either watch hindi movies online or download the movies for offline viewing without spending money.
Indian Bollywood Hindi films are popular in for their music, songs, and extravagent colorful potrayl of Indian Weddings but unfortunately most of the bollywood videos online are either copyright violations or have been posted without prior permission from the producers.
While you can legally buy entire bollywood film DVDs from Indiatimes, rediff, ebay or even subscribe and watch the Hindi, Tamil, Kannada Movies, Malayalam or Telegu Movies, Pakistan Plays or films online as streaming media by paying for it, sites like Youtube and Metacafe have just taken the business out of them.
For example, a simple search for "bollywood movies" or "hindi movies" will returns tons of video clips on Youtube which have either been scrapped from the movie VCD's or recorded with camcorders during pre-release sessions.
While youtube requires you to register before you can view adult movie scenes, Metacafe has no such restriction and is turning out to be a popular destinations for Indian located across the world.
It is also possible to download movies and video clips from Youtube or any other video site since they are essentially flv files which can be played with any free FLV player. You can even download them as AVI and play with Windows Media player.
However, downloading hindi movies is not for dial-up users as the music video files are huge. Some downloadable hindi movies in xdiv formats on some torrent websites are of excellent quaility like a original hindi DVD.
Youtube and even Google video also has a large collection of old hindi movies and songs plus movie trailors of the latest bollywood flicks. But again, you may be breaking certain copyright laws by download them to your computer.

The press freedom situation in Russia and, in particular, the lack of progress in solving murders of journalists continue to be a source of great concern, Reporters Without Borders said today after the Russia resort of Sochi was awarded the 2014 Winter Olympics. The organisation sent a team to Russia at the end of last month to meet the families and employers of murdered journalists.
"We are not in the least reassured by the announcement that a special commission of enquiry led by jurist Alexandre Bastrykin will get under way in September," the press freedom organisation said. "Bastrykin's proximity to the Kremlin and the fact he is regarded as a supporter of Vladimir Putin, with whom he studied in St. Petersburg, raise doubts about his independence. The problem is not the resources available to prosecutors but the existence of a real desire to solve the murders of journalists. The creation of new commission with an unclear mandate does not change that."
Although the prosecutor's office has welcomed the way the investigation into the murder of Novaya Gazeta reporter Anna Politkovskaya is being conducted, none of its conclusion has yet been revealed. The prosecutor has only said that it is highly likely that those responsible will be identified.
Six leads are currently being investigated, but colleagues of Politkovskaya whom Reporters Without Borders met said they suspected that those who gave the orders for her murder were not being questioned and that only the perpetrators would be brought to trial. Their initial confidence in the judicial system's ability to carry out a complete investigation has waned. Recent statements published in the press implying that exiled billionaire Boris Berezovsky could have been involved in Politkovskaya's murder seem designed to deflect attention from alternative theories that would be more embarrassing for the Russian authorities.
The retrial of the alleged murderers of the editor of the Russian version of Forbes magazine, Paul Klebnikov, could not be held because of the supposed disappearance one of the leading defendants, Kazbek Dukuzov. Dukuzov nonetheless appeared on Andrei Kalitin's programme "Spetsrassledovaniye" ("Special Investigation") on the national TV station Pervy Kanal (Channel 1) on 18 June and told Kalitin he was not hiding from the authorities.
A total of 21 journalists have been killed in connection with their work in Russia since March 2000. Ivan Safronov of Kommersant, who was killed in a fall from the fourth floor of his apartment building on 2 March could be the 22nd. The prosecutor's office announced on 29 June that, in its view, there was no link between his death and his recent work. But those close to Safronov say he had no reason to take his own life and there was no sign that he intended to do so, and that the authorities should be examining the possibility of a link between his death and his research into Russian arms sales to the Middle East.

Fox News finally deigned to address their parent company's phone-hacking scandal with an awkward exchange between Fox and Friends host Steve Doocy and guest Robert Dilenschneider.
Doocy took the lamestream media to task for focusing too much on the scandal while neglecting the real issues. (Fox and Friends later featured a segment on Mila Kunis and a live performance from modern rock also-rans Lifehouse. Trenchant!)
So okay, standard-issue Fox News jab at other media outlets: check. But what about a comically overstated, sycophantic explanation of the events that grossly distorts the actual facts?
Mr. Dilenschneider, the floor is yours:
"We know it's a hacking scandal, shouldn't we get beyond it at this point and really deal with the issue of hacking? I mean, CitiCorp has been hacked into, Bank of America has been hacked into, American Express has been hacked into, insurance companies have been hacked into. We've got a serious hacking problem in this country… CitiGroup, great bank, Bank of America, great bank. Are they getting the same kind of attention for hacking that took place less than a year ago that News Corp is getting today?"
Did you see that? Did you blink and miss it? Dilenschneider connected the attacks on Citigroup with the News Corp scandal while failing to mention that News Corp were the ones that did the hacking, rather than the other way around. Then he blames it on the media!
It has a dark kind of genius to it. And I've found that you can actually derive quite a bit of entertainment pleasure from Fox News by watching it as performance art or high acting, rather than news. The amount of poise it has to take for a rational human being to keep a straight face during this kind of insane blather is unreal. Either Doocy deserves an Oscar, or he's a Terminator. I'm not sure which explanation I prefer.

I've wrote some code to fill Numeric arrays with levy distributions from gsl. GSL has many, many distributions - http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref_19.html#SEC284 Here's a sample test script from levy import randlevy, seed gamma = 0.003501 alpha = 1.341702 seed(1235) x = randlevy(100000, alpha, gamma) print min(x), max(x) Seeding is optional - the rng is seeded by the clock if you don't explicitly call seed. Below is the module code which you can use as a template if you're interested. I think it would be nice to extend this code to include all the gsl distributions, but haven't taken the time. pygsl wraps these distributions, but suffers from the repeated call overhead that is hurting you. It would be a natural extension of pygsl to include initializing numeric arrays from the distributions. #include "Python.h" #include "Numeric/arrayobject.h" #include <stdio.h> #include <time.h> #include <gsl/gsl_rng.h> #include <gsl/gsl_randist.h> #include <gsl/gsl_errno.h> static PyObject *ErrorObject; // get x[i] from a 1d array of type xtype #define get1d(x,i,xtype) \ *(xtype *)(x->data+i*x->strides[0]) int _levymodRNGSeeded = 0; gsl_rng * _levymodRNG; static PyObject * seed(PyObject *self, PyObject *args) { const gsl_rng_type * T; int N; T = gsl_rng_default; _levymodRNG = gsl_rng_alloc(T); gsl_rng_env_setup(); if (args==Py_None) { //printf("Default seed\n"); time_t t1; (void) time(&t1); srand48((long) t1); N = (int)t1; } else if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "i", &N)) return NULL; //printf("Setting seed %d\n", N); gsl_rng_set (_levymodRNG, N); _levymodRNGSeeded = 1; Py_INCREF(Py_None); return Py_None; } static PyObject * randlevy(PyObject *self, PyObject *args) { if (_levymodRNGSeeded == 0) { seed(self, Py_None); } int dimensions[1]; int i; PyArrayObject *x; int N; float alpha; float gamma; if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "iff", &N, &alpha, &gamma)) return NULL; dimensions[0] = N; x = (PyArrayObject *)PyArray_FromDims(1,dimensions,PyArray_FLOAT); for (i=0; i<N; ++i) { get1d(x,i,float) = gsl_ran_levy(_levymodRNG, gamma, alpha); } return Py_BuildValue("N", x); } static struct PyMethodDef _levy_methods[] = { {"randlevy", (PyCFunction)randlevy, METH_VARARGS, "Return a numeric array of levy numbers."}, {"seed", (PyCFunction)seed, METH_VARARGS, "Seed the random number generator."}, {NULL, NULL} /* sentinel */ }; DL_EXPORT(void) init_levy(void) { PyObject *m, *d; /* Create the module and add the functions */ m = Py_InitModule4("_levy", _levy_methods, "Fill Numeric arrays with random numbers ", (PyObject*)NULL,PYTHON_API_VERSION); /* Import the array object */ import_array(); /* Add some symbolic constants to the module */ d = PyModule_GetDict(m); ErrorObject = PyString_FromString("_levy.error"); PyDict_SetItemString(d, "error", ErrorObject); /* Check for errors */ if (PyErr_Occurred()) Py_FatalError("can't initialize module _levy"); }

Milwaukee Talks: FOX 6 news personality Katrina Cravy
Katrina Cravy isn't from Milwaukee, but it's as good as home for the California native. It was a job that brought her here, and it also took her away. The FOX 6 anchor and reporter will also admit that it was a man who convinced her to come back to Wisconsin, but ultimately, meeting her husband (and then coworker) is what kept her here for good.
Cravy, 41, is one of the hosts of "Real Milwaukee," the locally-produced morning show on Channel 6. Even though motherhood helped her decide to step away from the evening anchor desk, she also serves the station's consumer investigative reporter through her role as the "Contact 6" point person.
Recently, we caught up with Cravy over lunch to discuss her changing job and the industry as a whole, but also what it's like to share (and avoid "oversharing") details of her life in an increasingly personality-driven business. Enjoy this latest Milwaukee Talks.
OnMilwaukee.com: Usually, when we do a Milwaukee Talks interview with someone in the media, we're revealing a side of him or her that the public doesn't always see. But you, with "Real Milwaukee," are already putting most of it out there, right?
Katrina Cravy: It's different, because I was afraid that no one would care once I put it out there. I'd be doing the news for years, but did anyone care about my personal life?
OMC: Apparently they do. Why do you think so?
KC: In some ways, it's building that commonality. A lady called me the other day and left me a message saying that she used to think I was really uptight, but then she saw me with my neighbor on the first day of school, drinking champagne and Skyping into the show. She said, "Now I know you're really cool." I don't know if I'm really cool, but at least I'm not uptight!
OMC: "Real Milwaukee" must be a pretty dramatic shift from what you did the first part of your career.
KC: It is different. I couldn't have any opinions at all. I was supposed to be unbiased. Then, when they gave me "Contact 6," which I was not expecting when Tom Hooper retired in '99, I thought they were crazy. I was 28, and Tom Hooper had opinions. I thought, "I get to have an opinion now?" Now, they put me on a show where they want my opinion every day.
OMC: Even though you're still young, you've really seen the local news landscape change, right?
KC: It has. When I started at FOX 6, they used to come around and hand us our e-mails on paper. We only had one e-mail address. Now, my e-mail is the bane of my existence. It's great, you want a lot of feedback, but sometimes it's a little much.
OMC: What do you like better? Reporting or the personality-driven stuff?
KC: I like them differently. I like researching, so I like "Contact 6." "Real Milwaukee" is different because I like the producing of it because it's the itty-bitty nuances that can take the conversations somewhere. I have a list of things called "nothings" that will keep us going.
OMC: Are you the official "quarterback" of "Real Milwaukee" or did you just sort of fall into that role?
KC: When the show started, Nicole (Koglin) and Rob (Haswell) were still doing "Wakeup" and were busy up until the start of the show. Cassandra (McShepard) was new to television, and I was the one with the producer in my ear. But after a while, the show kind of morphed, and we realized that it's bad for me to just give out the information and react. Now everyone is bringing stories to the group. We all have different backgrounds and ages.

Mr. Bliss, a Math Teacher at Benson High School in Portland Oregon, was fired for his participation in pro-life activities on his personal time. My heart is broken during this wonderful season when we celebrate the birth of our Savior to see an outstanding teacher fired for simply having pro-life beliefs. This is institutional bigotry.

Every college coach already knew about Pahokee (Fla.) running back Antone Smith before the NIKE combine in Miami. Now fans and coaches alike are salivating over the South Florida star.
At the camp he earned MVP honors and posted a 4.25 40-yard dash. This was the second consecutive year in which he posted the camp's fastest time. Early on there were a few doubters who said that he may be a little small at 5-foot-9, 181 pounds, but now all doubt has been erased.
"I don't know who all has offered to tell the truth," said Smith. "My coach handles most of the offers and stuff like that. I mean I know which schools that I am really interested in and all of them have offered, but I try not to worry too much about that."
Article Continues Below
Last year as a junior, he had more than 1,000 yards in rushing and 12 touchdowns. He had an ankle injury, which kept him out of over three games last season. The year before as a sophomore, he rolled up almost 2,000 yards and had 21 touchdowns.
So how does he feel about another stellar camp showing?
"All it takes is a work ethic. If you work hard and play at 100 percent you are going to end up doing well. I feel like I'm always the hardest working and I think that is what has allowed me to do so well."
Prior to a stellar junior campaign as a sophomore Smith had 1,908 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns. He was named Florida's Sophomore Player of the Year. His freshman year he had over 500 rushing yards.
"I don't have too much of a list right now. I really just want to take some visits this summer. I'm still weighing my options and I want to make sure that I check everyone out."
Depending on when you read an article you might have remembered him saying that he wanted to stay close to home or get away from home. The truth is, he wouldn't mind either.
"Staying close to home would obviously be cool because then my family could come and watch me play. I'm comfortable with this area and all and that is an advantage. Leaving wouldn't be so bad either though because I think it can help you be a more well-rounded person and it would be cool to see other parts of the country too."

text: 4 years ago my daughter was expecting her 3rd child, and first girl. I bought fabric to make a quilt - some variation of a 9 patch. Well, life (and work) got in the way, and the baby was born before the quilt was even started. So my daughter asked me if I could make a twin size instead. Before I got that started, she wanted me to make a sampler quilt. I did get that started, but before I got all the blocks done she was pregnant with another girl. So, would I please make two twin size quilts. She requested the size and suggested the checkerboard pattern. They are both completed! And the baby is only one. This is the quilt for the almost 4 year old. The "E" block is her initial. Ellie loves her quilt with her initial on it. I also made a doll quilt and a valance to match.

Can others learn from China's remarkable growth rate? We explore some indirect determinants of China's growth success including the degree of openness, institutional change and sectoral change, based on a cross-province dataset. Our methodology is the informal growth regression, which permits the introduction of some explanatory variables that represent the underlying as well as the proximate causes of growth. We first address the problem of model uncertainty by adopting two approaches to model selection, Bayesian Model Averaging and the automated General-to-Specific approach, to consider a wide range of candidate predictors of growth. Then variables flagged as being important by these procedures are used in formulating our models, in which the contribution of factors behind the proximate determinants are examined using panel data system GMM. All three forms of structural change - relative expansion of the trade sector, of the private sector, and of the non-agricultural sector - are found to raise the growth rate. Moreover, structural change in all three dimensions was rapid over the study period. Each change primarily represents an improvement in the efficiency of the economy, moving it towards its production frontier. We conclude that such improvements in productive efficiency have been an important part of the explanation for China's fast growth.

Here is a landmark book that reveals the way boys think and that shows parents, educators, and coaches how to reach out and help boys overcome their most common yet difficult challenges - by the best-selling author who changed our conception of adolescent girls.
Do you constantly struggle to pull information from your son, student, or athlete, only to encounter mumbling or evasive assurances such as "It's nothing" or "I'm good"? Do you sense that the boy you care about is being bullied, but that he'll do anything to avoid your help? Have you repeatedly reminded him that schoolwork and chores come before video games only to spy him reaching for the controller as soon as you leave the room? Have you watched with frustration as your boy flounders with girls?
Welcome to Boy World. It's a place where asking for help or showing emotional pain often feels impossible. Where sports and video games can mean everything, but working hard in school frequently earns ridicule from "the guys" even as they ask to copy assignments. Where "masterminds" dominate and friends ruthlessly insult each other but can never object when someone steps over the line. Where hiding problems from adults is the ironclad rule because their involvement only makes situations worse.
Boy world is governed by social hierarchies and a powerful set of unwritten rules that have huge implications for your boy's relationships, his interactions with you, and the man he'll become. If you want what's best for him, you need to know what these rules are and how to work with them effectively.
What you'll find in Masterminds and Wingmen is critically important for every parent - or anyone who cares about boys - to know. Collaborating with a large team of middle- and high-school-age editors, Rosalind Wiseman has created an unprecedented guide to the life your boy is actually experiencing - his on-the-ground reality. Not only does Wiseman challenge you to examine your assumptions, she offers innovative coping strategies aimed at helping your boy develop a positive, authentic, and strong sense of self.
©2013 Rosalind Wiseman (P)2013 Random House Audio
"Rosalind Wiseman, who so insightfully explained the world of girls in Queen Bees and Wannabes, has done it again. This book is a powerful exploration of the inner life of boys, which is far more complex than many parents and educators may realize. Wiseman reveals the unwritten rules boys must both abide by and try to overcome, and she helps parents understand boys' reactions, as well as their own. This is an essential guide - not just for parents but anyone who wants to better understand their own childhood and its impact." (Anderson Cooper)
"Trying to communicate with boys - teenage boys especially - can sometimes feel like cracking the world's most complicated secret code. What makes Masterminds and Wingmen so remarkable is how thoroughly it decrypts boy-world language. It allows us to really connect with boys. If you want to understand what's in your son's head, read this book!" (Michael Gurian, New York Times best-selling author of The Wonder of Boys)
"Such helpful insight"
Every mom of a boy or girl should read this book. We were never given manuals in how to do things as parents, but this not only does that it also helps me to be a better aunt, God-parent, teacher, friend, confidant, to all the boys I know. As a sports coach, this is very helpful too.
"Insightful and down to earth"
I'm a teacher not a parent. I've already sent paperback copies to parents of boys. Regarding audio performance it was clear when the author was speaking vs. some of the boys who were interviewed and had quotes in the book. Parents are definitely the intended audience but I still found it quite helpful and enlightening.
"If I was in kindergarten... :-(p"
This book has some value however the HORRIBLE narration was so saccharin and condescending that I felt sorry for anyone who for any reason had to listen to this book.
It was absolutely ruined by the person who read it. Yuck! I must go wash my hands.
"Great Boys Info."
great research information on actual examples along with strong opinionated view points of consideration

Padilla works for second straight day
Padilla works for second straight day
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Dodgers pitcher Vicente Padilla returned to the mound for a second consecutive day on Tuesday, making 15 pitches at his highest velocity yet, before throwing breaking balls on flat ground.
Padilla, who underwent surgery to free an entrapped radial nerve in his right forearm on Feb. 24, came away from the workout with a smile.
The Dodgers have not given a timetable for Padilla's return -- because the surgery is rare for a pitcher -- but the only one known to have had it is former Milwaukee pitcher Jeff D'Amico, who was out for two months.
Padilla, however, is being asked to return as a reliever, so his rehab should be shorter because he won't need to build up the arm strength of a starter.

Philippine President Joseph Estrada vowed Wednesday to pursue the Abu Sayyaf Muslim rebels and said he had ordered the army assault on their island hideout to be stepped up.
"We should crush them and reduce them to ash, this Abu Sayyaf," Estrada said at a news conference with two French journalists who escaped from their captors Tuesday night.
"We cannot stop here, there are still 17 hostages to go," said Estrada, adding he had ordered an intensification of military operations.
"We shall continue to pursue the Abu Sayyaf criminals and secure the safety of the remaining hostages."
Jean-Jacques Le Garrec, 46, and Roland Madura, 49, had managed to give their Muslim rebel captors the slip undercover of darkness during the Philippine military assault on the southern island of Jolo.
They arrived in Manila Wednesday after having been held since July 9 when they were seized by the Abu Sayyaf as they tried to interview hostages snatched in April from the Malaysian dive resort island of Sipadan -- MANILA (AFP)

A University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Nursing study found that nurses can help significantly lessen alcohol and drug use in homeless youth.
According to the press release of UCLA School of Nursing, the study evaluated 154 drug-using homeless youth in Santa Monica, California — many of whom went through a number of life crises, including a history of foster care, a low level of education and a support system of individuals who themselves use drugs and/or alcohol. Researchers tested the effectiveness of two group interventions, one led by nurses and the other led by artists.
The nurse-led intervention program featured three highly interactive group sessions that focused on educating adolescents about disease transmission and vaccinations and providing them with training in self-management and the development of healthy social networks. Participants were encouraged to share their experiences and discuss how they could integrate health promotion strategies into their lives.
After six months, alcohol use decreased 24 percent in the nurse intervention program, while marijuana use declined by 17 percent.
The study also found that "art messaging," the intervention program led by artists that allowed participants to create messages about health and drug use to influence other drug-using youths, have positive effect on drug and alcohol abuse and other risky behaviors among homeless youth. Alcohol use decreased 25 percent in this program while marijuana use dropped 20 percent.
"Both resulted in significant reductions in the use of alcohol and binge drinking, as well as dramatic decreases in the use of marijuana and, in the nurse-led program, noteworthy decreases in cocaine, methamphetamine and hallucinogens use," said lead researcher Adey Nyamathi. "These results are very promising, as reducing alcohol and drug abuse in any population is very difficult."
The research, published in the current issue of the American Journal on Addictions, was funded by a grant from the National Institute of Drug Abuse.

Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound OffYeah, had to fucking write one. It's pretty late, though, and it peeks through in my numerous punctuation errors, but wtf.
this is a pretty good album.
Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound OffShit yeah it is.
Great to see this reviewed man. Pos.
I reviewed their latest and was going to jump on this one as well. Nicely done. I must say, I prefer the singularity over this one.
Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound OffI can't decide. Singularity seems to be overall a bit better, but some songs on Allegory stand out a bit more. Still, "Approaching the Singularity" is so awesome that I decided to learn the outro on piano. Ha.
Singularity is great, but it kind of gets boring after a while. I think this album is waaaaaay better.
Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound OffYou sell your soooul, and spread it thiiiin!!
My skin crawls when I don't see you, my blood knows that I don't need you!
I bleed for mine and you sell your soul! YOU SELL YOUR! SOOOOOOOOOOUL! >_

Meh i've had this album for long now but I have only listened to a few of it's songs. I gotta mention that "Chasm" really blows my mind. I really need to start listening to the heavier songs on this album aswell.
There is something so magical about this band and makes me more and more attached to it as time passes:p
Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound OffYeah, you've captured their essence quite well. They get better as time passes, even though they're a bit annoying at the beginning. But the later the more awesome they get. Can't wait for their next work.
Album Rating: 3.5Hey! Awesome review.

SAN DIEGO - A taxi driver plowed slowly through a crowd on a sidewalk in a popular restaurant and nightclub zone early Saturday, severing the leg of one woman and injuring more than two dozen other people, police said.
The crash occurred about 2 a.m. in the heart of the busy Gaslamp District as revelers were heading home, according to police Sgt. Ray Battrick. Witnesses said the cab was traveling around 15 miles an hour.
The driver sustained a broken nose after being beaten by people in the crowd, who also smashed windows on the taxi, Battrick said.
The crash did not appear to be intentional, authorities said.
Police said 25 people were injured. All but two were taken to area hospitals.

zrep provides an easy-to-use program to manage zfs filesystem replication and failover. No configuration files are required. The program is developed under Solaris, but may work with any up to date zfs implementation. The executable is a single script. Initialization does a full data copy, but subsequent syncs are incrementals. It uses internal locking to make sure there is no danger of overlap if you just shove it in cron to run every minute. Design target is more "near-time replication", since the sync can be run every minute or more. However, it could conceivably be used for "backup" purposes as well.
|dr replication failover Systems Administration Solaris ZFS backup
|Operating Systems
|Solaris Nexenta Illumos FreeBSD
Release Notes: This release fixes the format of the timestamp for the initial sync snapshot.
Release Notes: This release adds capability for "pull" updates (zrep refresh), so that it is possible to use zrep in a central backup server capacity. This release also makes invocation of Perl more flexible, to be kinder to non-Solaris OSes.
Release Notes: This release adds new subcommands: snaponly and synconly. This allows for short downtime of things like databases, to take the snap, then run the actual sync in the background after the database has been cleanly resumed.
Release Notes: This release adds support for the ZREP_CREATE_FLAGS environment variable. This allows the ability to override default creation properties on the remote replica side on initial sync, for those who do not have a ZFS that is advanced enough to support "recv -x".
Release Notes: This release has a trivial one-line fix for a trivial bug for older versions of zrep.
A Fluent OpenStack client API for Java.
A TWiki appliance that is easy to use and lightweight.

When a team was pulling a big barge all the way along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal to boost a charity, they were welcomed to Pendle by the borough's Mayor.
Coun. Smith Benson went along to Barrowford Locks to meet them as they arrived there on their long journey. They were a little later than planned, but he was pleased to welcome them.
The Barge Pull Charity Event was established to raise money for the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation.

Snow days. While they create a wonderful little break away from school, this year, combined with the week Darien Public Schools had off from super-storm Sandy, students, parents, and teachers alike are starting to ponder the possibility of having April Break canceled as many schools in the Connecticut area already have.
Sure, snow days as a little kid are the greatest thing in the world.
As an elementary school student, it was my utopia to wake up, find snow on my roof and lawn, run down to family room, turn on to News 12, impatiently wait for the school cancelations to turn to the letter "D," and see the wonderful phrase, "Darien Public Schools: Closed Today."
Unfortunately, with increasing age, I have finally come to the realization that having snow days is not the greatest of ideas.
This is primarily because every day missed just adds on to the schedule in June. And you can call me crazy, but I rather spend my vacation relaxing at the beach with friends than shoveling my driveway in the biting cold.
Besides the fact of the cold, I find snow days make it hard for me to hang out with friends. The biggest reason for this is because the driving situation, or lack thereof. Since I do not have my permit or license yet, I am required to asking my parents for rides from one place to another.
Ninety nine percent of the time getting rides from my parents is not a limiting factor, but on snow days my parents are reluctant to drive to my friend's house and risk possible safety. My mom's car is a Honda Odyssey, which is not that great in snow. While I do agree with my parents on that term, it adds to the reason why snow days are not the greatest time of the year.
An added problem for this year's snow days and time off from super-storm Sandy is the threat of losing a break.
Luckily for us, the recent snowstorm only had us miss one day of school, while in upstate Connecticut the devastation was much worse and some schools missed up to a week of school.
This caused many of these schools to cancel their February break or shorten their February break. Norwalk Public School was one of these schools, and they shortened their break by three days. It is also rumored that Stamford Public Schools is thinking about canceling their April break.
A Darien student can only think that the same fate may be in place for Darien Public Schools if any more snow days occur.
While I personally don't think students, parents, and teachers should be penalized for Mother Nature's irregularities, I see where the administration could be coming from if they did such a thing.
And when school is out relatively early in June, I think most may agree that while the decision was unpopular, it all worked out in the end.
Brendan Ferguson is a sophomore at Darien High School and has written for the Neirad, the high school's newspaper.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Cat Network, Inc., Miami, FL, USA
As a pre-vet student, I volunteered with the Cat Network helping to provide cheap spay/neuter surgeries for pets and feral cats. Many people do not understand the importance of spaying and neutering animals. It helps to control the animal population so that thousands of cats and dogs don't need to be euthanized each year. The people I worked with while volunteering work very hard and deserve a lot of recognition. If more people put their time and effort into great causes like this the world would be a better place.

Power Outages in Haverford - Related to Outages in Ardmore AgainPECO?

(Don't live in Lower Merion? That's okay. We won't hold it aginst you.)
Power outage now in Haverford - I believe it is related to the one Susan reported in Ardmore.
This outage runs at least thru Booth Lane and Lancaster Ave on the western end and thru to Ardmore on the eastern end - TD Bank and Tinderbox and all those places are out. I feel especially bad for the really nice new yogurt shop which opened next to Brueggers Bagels.
I don't know if those apartments on Lancaster Ave in Haverford owned by Korman Suites are affected or not.
This is the circuit which ALWAYS goes out when ARDMORE goes out. I think PECO just doesn't want to fix it properly as a friend of mine from high school said today "the power still goes out near that WaWa in Ardmore? It's been doing that since high school, when is PECO going to fix it?"
I also had a report of power outages elsewhere in Ardmore today - Jhn Henry's Pub about 1:30 this afternoon.
Keep reporting the outages folks!
- carla's blog
- Login or register to post comments
Commissioners told me that as per Don Cannon a guy from PECO named Greg Carey said an underground something went out and the repair crews should be done by 9:00 p.m. - so it's that now, I hope someone will post an update from that area. Apparently it's an east to west fault (which we kinda already know because we live here)
Power was back to Wawa when I stopped by around 10:30 PM this evening.
Wawa is back, other places not so lucky. At 7 am the traffic signals were still out in Haverford and now are on generators in at least one location - Lancaster Ave and Haverford Station Rd. You know, every time there are extremes in weather (heat and rain especially) or sometimes we don't know why, the power dumps off leaving two to three (at least) of the most problematic intersections with traffic signals WITHOUT signals. And let's not forget the human element of people in apartments, houses, and small businesses who are affected by these outages.
Brueggers Bagels and the new yogurt parlor called Kiwi are but two examples of still withut power. Kiwi is a BRAND NEW SMALL BUSINESS and their business is cold sweets so can you IMAGINE their losses right now? They have not even been open a month I think. We want businesses like that to stay, not fold up their tent and disappear in a cloud of losses.
When will PECO finally address this underground fault which always seems to straddle Haverford and Ardmore? The most recent one or part of one dealt with was on Lancaster Ave closer to the Haverford School. But there is this east-west thing so why not just fix it????
Also, TD Bank which is always affected no matter which part of these faults or whatever go out said they had to service customers OUTSIDE in the HEAT yesterday. I think that is awful. I don't know if the Korman building formerly known at Whitehall next to Wells Fargo on Lancaster Ave has power or not - couldn't tell but I can tell you last time they were affected by an outage it was days out.
We pay a LOT for power around here I think our infrastructure should be a little more reflective of that. The township responded well to this and you could see them out and about checking on the busiensses, etc.
All power should be pretty much restored now. I spke with someone at PECO today at length and it was the Ardmore 17 circuit which failed. It has been bumped up to their people - engineers I guess - for review, so maybe they will consider replacing it.....we can hope....

CUSTOMERS at Nantwich pubs got new hairdos at the weekend to raise money for charity.
Patrons of Firenze, the Bowling Green, the Boot and Shoe and the White Horse made donations to the Children's Liver Disease Foundation in exchange for haircut.
A hairdressing team from Johnston Brady salons took to the streets for the pub crawl with a difference, raising £2,000 for CLDF.
Staff decided to support the charitry after a friend's baby daughter, Sienna, was born with the rare liver disease, biliary atresia. She has since received a life-saving transplant.
"We wanted to put our skills to good use to support Sienna and other children like her as we didn't realise that liver disease was something which can affect babies," explained Jenna Robinson of Johnston Brady.
"We really didn't know what sort of response to expect but were overwhelmed with the support we received.
"We had queues of people all day and everyone was so generous. It's a fantastic result and we're really grateful to the people of Nantwich."
You can still support the Johnston Brady pub crawl by going to www.justgiving.com/johnstonbrady.

From the start of the week, when the partners to the Tamar 1 offshore gas exploration shouted "Eureka!", the net asset value of Yitzhak Tshuva's Delek Group has shot up by 22% to about NIS 4 billion - says Leader Capital Market equity analyst Yoav Burgan, who calculated Delek Group's worth based on an NAV (net asset value) model.
This is good news for Tshuva. Just two weeks ago Clal Finance's equity research department applied the NAV model to Lev Leviev's company, Africa Israel Investments, and came up with a net asset value of zero.
Last week, TheMarker checked out the NAV of Nochi Dankner's IDB Holdings, with a negative result: the company's assets are currently worth NIS 2.5 billion than its liabilities. (IDB commented that the evaulation is wrong.)
One point that must be remembered, however, with respect to Tshuva's personal position is that his private holding company El-Ad was naturally not included in the Delek Group calculation, and El-Ad has some hefty debts because of its extensive real estate investments in North America.
That said, Tshuva could smile this week following the sharp rally in Delek Group's share price, which added close to a billion shekels to Burgan's model. Following the 40% jump in Delek Group's share price, the gap between the NAV model and Delek Group's market cap widened so much, that based on Burgan's model, at the end of trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange on Monday Delek Group was trading at a 43% discount in comparison with the NAV model.
According to Burgan's model, the value of Delek Group's holdings, which include Delek Automotive, Hot Cable Communications Systems, Gadot Biochemicals, the Phoenix insurance and of course Delek Energy and Delek Drilling, amounts to about NIS 9 billion, offset by debts of about NIS 4.8 billion, not including administrative expenses.
Similar figures have been compiled by Psagot analysts Limor Gruber and Noam Pinko. Their NAV model also resulted in a NIS 9 billion figure for Delek Group's holdings, with debts of about NIS 4.8 billion and around NIS 200 million for other expenses, for an NAV of about NIS 4 billion, such that Delek Group's share is trading at a discount of 41% compared to the model.
The models used by Psagot and Leader show which companies contribute most to Delek Group's NAV. The top spot, even after the celebrations at Delek Drilling, is Delek Israel, which operates the Delek gas station chain, and accounts for 14%-15% of Delek Group's net worth. Next is Republic Companies Group, an American insurance company that contributes 12%-13.5% to Psagot's and Leader's calculations. Third and fourth place are occupied by Delek Automotive and Delek Energy, each of which represents about 11% of Delek Group's worth.
Both NAV models derive a discount of tens of percentage points for Delek Group, even after the sharp increases in the share's price in the last few days, prompting some analysts to issue Buy recommendations on Sunday. Before the current economic crisis analysts would not issue a Buy recommendation unless there was at least a 15% gap between a company's market value and the NAV model, but now the required gap is much more.
"These days there is no talk of Buy recommendations if a holding company is trading at a discount of less than 25%," said one analyst Monday, explaining that this was due to the impact of the capital market crisis on holding companies, which are usually highly leveraged and therefore much riskier. Hence the analysts look for significant share price growth potential before issuing Buy recommendations.

It's a cowardly move for a cowardly dishonest administration.
Keystone is one of those cases where Obama can't afford to make a decision. So he doesn't.
There's little doubt that his sympathies are with the environmental left which wants Keystone dead, but neither can he afford to offend unions or give Republicans a Keystone job-killing talking point.
So Obama will go on doing what he's been doing all along. Delay it to death.
Any decision that Obama makes will hurt him politically. And he has an election coming up that will determine whether Congress will finally have the power to stop him. Midterm elections are determined by lower turnout and donations so that both sides, environmentalists and unions, will wield disproportionate power.
So Obama has postponed the decision again.
It's obvious which side Obama has come out on. You don't constantly postpone something you support. The only novelty is that instead of directly throwing his weight around and launching a hashtag for his fake Twitter followers, Obama has distanced himself from Keystone and tried to kill it through delays.
It's a cowardly move for a cowardly dishonest administration.

My little fashionista takes every chance she gets to show her styling skills, and our day at the pumpkin patch was no exception. Stella put this ensemble together herself, and I have to say I was impressed. She chose a pink (obviously) peasant dress, jean cutoff shorts, a pair of her fave retro socks, and pumpkin patch appropriate vintage cowboy boots. My little stylista topped her outfit off with a pair of statement sunnies, which are vintage as well. Can you say toddler chic?!
I was so in love with Stella's get-up, I decided to dress Hattie in a matching outfit! My matching ladies looked so adorable together, and had so much fun frolicking around the patch. Thanks to Stella, Hattie has a cutting edge style icon to look up to in her big sister.
Do you ever dress your little ones in matching outfits? Do they love it? Hate it? Share your thoughts on the topic in the comments below!

Hamas: Netanyahu Is Trying to Push an Empty Deal on Shalit's Release
Khaled Meshal tells Russian President Medvedev: We don't want to keep Shalit but only an honorable deal will solve the issue.
A Hamas politburo official on Wednesday accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the failure to reach a prisoner exchange agreement in which Palestinian prisoners would be released in exchange for captured IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.
"Netanyahu is trying to push for an empty deal," Izzat al-Rishq told Reuters. "Hamas wants the maximum number of prisoners with long sentences to be freed from Israeli occupation jails."
Rishq's comments came a day after Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, on a visit to Syria, asked Khaled Meshal, the exiled leader of the Palestinian Islamist movement, to quickly resolve the issue of Shalit, who was captured in 2006 by Hamas militants who tunneled into Israel from Gaza.
Hamas dismissed the Russian request on Wednesday, saying that Shalit will not be released without an "honorable" prisoner exchange deal.
"Khaled Meshal told the Russian president that we don't want to keep Shalit but only an honorable deal will solve the issue," Rishq said.
President Bashar al-Assad, who was hosting Medvedev in Damascus, attended the meeting.
Syria hosts exiled leaders of Hamas, including Meshal, and has influence on the group, which is also backed by Iran.
A German mediator renewed efforts in January to reach an agreement between Hamas and Israel, but the process has stalled.
Hamas said then that Israel was demanding that dozens of Palestinians jailed after being convicted of involvement in killings be deported upon their release.
As a right-wing leader, Netanyahu faces a particular dilemma in freeing Palestinians who might commit further violence. But he is also under heavy public pressure to win Shalit's release.
Hamas is shunned in the West because the group refuses to recognize Israel, and the United States considers Hamas a terrorist organization.
But Russia, a member of the Middle East peace negotiators known as the Quartet, says Hamas should not be isolated, and Moscow has kept channels open with the group.

"Age isn't important unless you are a cheese"
I used to have a pad of post-it notes with this slogan, courtesy of a cheese dairy.
There's one aspect of Perl that no one's mentioned yet, and that's the Perl Community. I'm also in my fourth decade, and a regular attender of Perlmonger events especially socials. One of the nice things about Perlmongers is that, in my experience, the group is inclusive, and non-ageist.
Perlmonger social meetings provide an opportunity to chew the collective cud, and to talk about some of the meta issues of Perl programming. Tech talks are even better, as you get the opportunity to learn something.

Winter Burning
Poem: "Winter Burning" by Sidney Hall Jr. from What We Will Give Each Other published by Hobblebush Books.
It was on this day in 1940, during World War II, that Germany began dropping INCENDIARY BOMBS ON LONDON. This was part of the eight-month Blitz on England that Hitler ordered to prepare for a German invasion, and the firestorm that night engulfed the area around St. Paul's Cathedral.
It s the birthday in 1922, New York, of novelist WILLIAM GADDIS who died last December. He only produced four books in the 40 years he spent writing, and after the first one, The Recognitions, came out in 1955 to horrible reviews, he published nothing for nearly 20 years. His next book finally appeared in 1975, JR, a sarcastic look at the corporate world. Carpenter's Gothic followed 10 years later, and his satire on the U.S. legal system, A Frolic of His Own (1994), won Gaddis both the National Book Award and National Book Critics' Circle Award. He grew up without a father, and all his novels feature the spirit of a dead or absent father who leaves his affairs in a mess for his children. Gaddis was famous for refusing interviews and for using long, stream-of-consciousness dialog that purposefully didn't designate who was talking. When critics said he made the reader work too much, Gaddis replied: "That's what books are about. The reader must bring something to it or he won't take anything away. Television provides everything. In situation comedies, you go with a completely blank mind, and you take nothing home. Bad fiction is like this. Everything is provided for you, and you forget it a week later."
It's the anniversary of the WOUNDED KNEE massacre. It took place in South Dakota, 1890, when about 200 Sioux Indians were killed by U.S. troops sent to disarm them. It was the last major conflict between Native Americans and the federal government. A few hundred Sioux had left the Pine Ridge Reservation in southwest South Dakota two weeks earlier after their leader, Chief Sitting Bull, was killed. They were armed and planned on hiding in the Badlands. But on the 28th they decided to turn themselves in, and on the morning of the 29th they were handing over their guns to the U.S. 7th Cavalry, when a shot went off somewhere in the crowd. A trooper fell, then the soldiers opened fire. The exact number of dead is unknown because it occurred in winter, and some survivors returned to retrieve bodies themselves. But come spring, a grave could finally be dug, and 144 Indians, including 44 women and 16 children, were buried in a mass grave.
It's the birthday in 1876 of the cellist and composer PABLO CASALS, in Vendrell, Spain. Casals loosened up the cellist's technique, making the left hand more flexible, and the right "bow" arm freer; and his own playing was marked by an effortless, singing tone. He was also a good piano player, and every morning before breakfast went to his piano, he said, to fill the house with Bach and get the day off to the best possible start.
It was on this day in 1170 that ARCHBISHOP THOMAS BECKET was murdered in Canterbury Cathedral in England. He and King Henry II had been at odds for years over who in England held the reins of the church: the Pope, as Becket believed, or the king.
Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.®

Man, Son Indicted for Killing Man Who Allegedly Stole Their Dog
Menachem Adato and his son Sa'ar, of Moshav Ganot, are suspected of battering their neighbor to death.
A man and his son were indicted on Thursday for killing their neighbor, whom they suspected of stealing their dog.
Tel Aviv District Court heard that Menachem Adato, 54, and his son Sa'ar, 21, both of Moshav Ganot east of Tel Aviv, went looking last week for their dog that had disappeared. They learned that she had been found on Zvi Silberspurn's farm land in the nearby Moshav Ramot Meir.
When they arrived at Silberspurn's house, they started beating him with rods. As Silberspurn retaliated, Sa'ar hurled a big stone at him, hitting him in the chest. The blow broke his ribs and injured his spleen, which eventually led to his death.

A headline referred to Redskins quarterback Chase Daniel as Daniels.
Campbell, Offense Still Struggling
Daniel Passes For a Pair of Late Scores : Redskins 17, Steelers 13
Sunday, August 23, 2009
His work finished after a disconcerting performance, Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell walked slowly to the sideline Saturday night to speak with Coach Jim Zorn. It seems they have a lot to talk about.
Campbell appeared shaky throughout three series in a 17-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, stirring more concern about the team's unproductive first-team offense and No. 1 quarterback. Although it's only the preseason, Campbell completed one of seven passes for 10 yards.
"I don't worry about numbers," Campbell said. "A quarterback would like to get in a rhythm, but tonight is just about trying to take shots."
The performance of rookie quarterback Chase Daniel, however, was a positive development for the Redskins. Daniel made the most of his extended opportunity and led a second-half comeback. He threw touchdown passes of three yards to impressive rookie wide receiver Marko Mitchell -- the team's first touchdown of the preseason -- in the third quarter and an 18-yarder to second-year tight end Fred Davis early in the fourth a play after Davis forced a fumble on special teams.
Daniel completed six of eight passes for 58 yards. And in the process, he might have turned up the heat on Colt Brennan in their competition for the No. 3 quarterback job. Brennan, who achieved cult-hero status with fans as a rookie last season, has been considered the favorite to again play behind Campbell and longtime No. 2 quarterback Todd Collins. But Daniel, in his first appearance of the preseason, showed a lot.
Brennan did not fare as well against the Steelers. With the Redskins driving late in the fourth, Brennan tried to force an ill-advised pass into an area of the end zone well covered by four Steelers, and linebacker Tom Korte intercepted the pass.
As for injuries, running back Ladell Betts strained his back in the first and did not return. Fullback Mike Sellers bruised his right knee in the second and did not play after halftime. Pro Bowl defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth made his Redskins debut, and defensive end-tackle Phillip Daniels, who sat out last season because of a major knee injury, played in his second game since the end of the 2007 season.
But it's all about the big picture for the Redskins, and Campbell still is the focus. He missed receivers with a variety of poor passes.
"I didn't know that it was 1 of 7 for 10 yards. I thought he stood in strong," said Zorn, who added that he wanted to try more vertical passes. "Overall there was not a lot of production, but I thought he was in command of what we were trying to do."
During five series in the preseason spanning about two full quarters, Campbell has completed four of 13 passes for 48 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions. He has a 43.10 quarterback rating.
"Overall, for myself, we wanted to try to come out and take some shots," Campbell said. "Either you hit them or you don't. Against a team like Pittsburgh, you know it's going to be a challenge even in the preseason."
Many Redskins fans in an announced crowd of 68,243 at FedEx Field -- who came out despite the rain to attend the Redskins' preseason home opener -- groaned and occasionally booed as Campbell sailed passes over the heads of receivers, left balls short of their intended targets or threw wide. And unlike what often derailed Campbell last season, pass protection was not the problem.
The first-team offensive line provided Campbell with time to progress through his progressions, but he failed to capitalize on the effective pass blocking. With a 23-0 shutout loss to the Baltimore Ravens and another ineffective showing on offense against the Steelers, the Redskins still are seeking encouraging signs on that front with two preseason games remaining.
The Redskins have significant areas of concern on offense as the regular season draws closer, and Campbell's performance against Pittsburgh undoubtedly is on the list.
Although the Ravens shut out the Redskins, Washington's coaching staff expressed optimism about the play of the first-team offensive line, which did not give up a sack in its brief outing. The unit was intact against Pittsburgh as right guard Randy Thomas made his preseason debut after sitting out against Baltimore because of lingering knee problems, and Zorn, Washington's play-caller, showed confidence in the group from the opening snap of the game.
He called a long passing play for second-year wideout Malcolm Kelly, and Campbell had plenty of time to take his drop and wait for Kelly to break open deep down the middle of the field. Campbell's pass hung up too long, providing Steelers All-Pro safety Troy Polamalu with enough time to close on the play and break up the pass.
From that point, things would quickly worsen for Campbell and Washington's offensive starters.
Campbell's next pass fell incomplete near Clinton Portis's feet. On third down and 10, Campbell overthrew Santana Moss. In the week leading to the game, Zorn was candid about his desire to see progress from the first-team offense, and going three-and-out on the game's first possession was not what he envisioned.
So Zorn took a chance. When the team lined up to punt from its own 35-yard line, Zorn called for a direct snap to Rock Cartwright, who gained a first down. Campbell completed his only pass in the game later in the drive -- a short pass in the middle of the field to Chris Cooley for a 10-yard gain. And that was Campbell's highlight for the game.
The drive stalled at Pittsburgh's 3-yard line and place kicker Shaun Suisham, who is competing with Dave Rayner, connected on a 20-yard field goal for Washington's first points of the preseason.
On the Redskins' second possession starting at their 11-yard line, Campbell overthrew Moss deep down the left sideline. Betts was stopped for no gain and Campbell's pass to Betts fell incomplete, leading to another appearance for punter Hunter Smith, who has punted 14 times in two games.

It's impossible to watch the new $1.3 billion Parkland Memorial Hospital rising from the earth and not think of Ron Anderson.
Anderson, Parkland's chief executive officer for nearly three decades, has spent his professional career caring for others. His legacy will include lives saved or extended, distinguished trauma and burn units, and a string of community clinics that brought health care where it was most needed.
He used his brain and heart to improve lives for the least among us through Parkland's mission as Dallas County's public hospital. Without him, there would be no new facility, largely funded by bond money and private donations.
And it's time for him to go.
These words do not come easily, given all that Anderson, who turns 65 this month, has done right. Unfortunately, as a report from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services points out in damning detail, too much has gone wrong on his watch, as well. Parkland's problems were so severe that CMS threatened to pull its federal funding, which would be a death blow to any public hospital.
Parkland's board of managers did the right thing late Tuesday in agreeing to remove Anderson as CEO, although the timing is suspect. Parkland faces a Friday deadline to show CMS that it has corrected systemic problems in its emergency department and infection-control procedures. The board could have assertively voted out Anderson weeks ago, when it became aware of the problems. It could have compassionately waited until the hospital was back in good standing with CMS.
Either option would have seemed less desperate. But appearances do not change the fact that Anderson had to go if Parkland had any hopes of regaining a broken public trust.
Parkland's problems — many detailed by this newspaper's investigative team long before the feds swooped in — go beyond a single top official.
Anderson served at the board's pleasure and direction. Those managers — and the county commissioners who appoint them — must ask themselves if they have the right leadership, as well.
The clear answer is that Lauren McDonald — even with a powerful patron in County Commissioner John Wiley Price — has overstayed her time as board chair. She should join Anderson in a new, non-leadership role.
Replacing a CEO and board chair will be difficult, but it's the only choice for Parkland. Turning a blind eye to obvious structural problems would prove far more dangerous to the people Parkland serves.

Adecco's outplacement brand gains momentum

Slowdown Impact: Minimum job shifts at top level this year
State leads - Karnataka claims to have gone far ahead of other states
The Economic Times, Aman Dhall & Lisa Mary Thomson, September 27, 2009
The year 2009 may well go down as one of the most job stable years, top business leaders at India Inc have ever witnessed. Even as companies continued to lay off workers at lower ranks this year, the C-level positions — CEOs, managing directors, CFOs, CIOs, CTOs, business unit heads and legal heads — witnessed minimum job shifts in India's top 500 companies.
So while the world watched the high-profile exits of Ranbaxy CEO Malvinder Mohan Singh, ICICI Prudential CEO Shikha Sharma, Punjab National Bank CMD KCChakrabarty, TCS CEO S Ramadorai and the much-maligned Satyam CEO Ramalinga Raju, a wide array of India's business leaders just chose to stay put.
In fact, a SundayET-Adecco study of BSE500 companies reveals that the CXO level movement has declined by one-fourth in 2009 till date, in comparison to the same period last year. While in 2009, the total number of changes in the same companies has been 166; the total number of CXO level changes for 2008 in the BSE500 companies was 226.Speaking of the dip in job switches, Sudhakar Balakrishnan, CEO of HR services provider, Adecco India said; "Hiring happens based on forecasted economic growth. The increased uncertainty post-crisis in the US meant offtake here came down considerably.
And hence there was more job stability at management levels this year." Sector wise, it was the banking and financial services companies, which saw maximum retrenchment across levels in the current year due to the global financial ripple effect.This sector reported a 41% increase in CXO movement in 2009 vis-à-vis the same period in 2008. ICICI Bank witnessed the highest shuffle at the CXO level, with as many as five key positions changing hands.
This was the year when KV Kamath (now ICICI Bank chairman) retired from executive responsibilities to hand the baton of ICICI Bank over to Chanda Kochhar. There was also the high-profile exit of Shikha Sharma, who took over as CEO of Axis Bank this year.
