Searching for a Mossad Chief in the Shadow of a New Nuclear Threat
The prime minister is mum about who will take over the spy agency, but whoever it is, North Korea will have to be on their mind.
On Thursday, or at the latest, early next week, the prime minister will announce his pick for the top post at the Mossad. It's possible that Netanyahu decided to move up the timing of this announcement because of media pressure, specifically a lead story published this week in Yedioth Ahronot depicting him as a wishy-washy and indecisive leader. But the truth is that, as this story shows, the media are less powerful and resourceful than is commonly thought.
Members of the press have been groping in the dark for bits of information. Nobody knows who will replace Meir Dagan, the current Mossad chief, and before Netanyahu let it be known that the announcement was imminent, nobody had any idea when it would be made.
The rumor mill has been at full tilt for several months. The names of possible candidates have come and gone.
This week Amos Yadlin left his post as head of Military Intelligence, after five years on the job, and his name has come up in media reports as one of the candidates for the top Mossad post.
Yadlin, it appears, has left his IDF intelligence position without knowing whether he is in the running for the Mossad job. Because of an absence of information, journalists (including this writer ) are forced to regurgitate a list of likely candidates that includes: the current head of the Shin Bet Yuval Diskin, "T," who has served twice as deputy head of the Mossad, and perhaps also Hagi Hadas, who was No. 3 at the Mossad during Dagan's tenure and today serves as the prime minister's envoy for negotiations over the release of Gilad Shalit.
The possibility that Netanyahu will bypass this short list and promote some other figure from within the Mossad ranks, or an outsider whose name has not surfaced in this context, cannot be ruled out either.
It's to Netanyahu's credit that the press is groping in the dark for information.
The prime minister will make this decision on his own. Netanyahu is withholding information not only from the press, but even from members of his closed circle of advisers.
Dagan is about to leave his post after more than eight years on the job. The first part of his term was mired in controversy and marred by tense office politics, policy upheavals and the departure of top Mossad officials who could not adjust to his management style.
But after about two years on the job, Dagan learned some lessons and began listening to his associates. Senior Mossad officials persuaded him to scrap some ambitious operational plans that were likely to have ended in major catastrophes.
The moment he found his equilibrium, Dagan flourished in his role. Most importantly, he restored the Mossad's prestige and enhanced its power of deterrence.
Deserving of credit
Several events of strategic import for Israeli security, for which the Mossad and the intelligence community deserves credit, according to foreign sources, happened on his watch.
It was the Mossad, for example, which supplied precise information about Hezbollah's arsenal of long-range missiles, enabling Israel's air force to destroy the missiles in 34 minutes during the Second Lebanon War. It was in 2008, while he was chief, that Hezbollah's "defense minister," Imad Mughniya was knocked off in Damascus. Hezbollah has since been struggling to find a replacement for Mughniya.
And, criticism leveled by reporters and commentators notwithstanding, the assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai attributed to Israel was not a failure.
True, Israel's relations with Australia, Britain and Ireland sustained some short-term damage as a result, but Hamas hasn't been able to to find someone to replace al-Mabhouh, both as chief of logistics and as liaison with the ultra-secretive al-Quds force, Iran's Revolutionary Guards. It was also the Mossad, according to foreign sources, that helped obtain information used by the air force when it attacked a convoy trying to smuggle arms to Hamas.
Beyond anything else, though, Dagan's term will be remembered as a time when the Mossad was systematically able to hamper Iran's nuclear efforts, even though the ultimate objective of putting an end to Iran's nuclear ambitions has yet to be fulfilled.
In this context, there couldn't have been better timing for the changing of the guard at the Mossad. With Dagan's replacement about to be named, Iran's nuclear program has suffered a major setback:
In an unprecedented development, uranium enrichment activities at the Natanz plant have been suspended because of malfunctions and damage to the centrifuges.
Whether this was really caused by a computer virus, by faulty equipment sold to Iran by certain organizations, or by a lack of technological virtuosity on the part of Iranian nuclear experts, the widely held assumption is that the Mossad, under Dagan's tutelage, had something to do with it.
Notwithstanding the successes it's notched up, what happened this week far away from Mossad headquarters is cause for concern.Dr. Siegfried Hecker, a nuclear weapons specialist at Stanford University, was invited to visit a North Korean uranium enrichment site and was amazed at what he found.
Within one year, he found, the North Koreans have managed to build a sophisticated facility for uranium enrichment. Advanced P-2 centrifuges, the model that Iran has had difficulty producing, operate at this site.
What guarantee is there that North Korea, which in the past supplied a nuclear reactor to Syria (which was later destroyed by the Israeli air force ) will not supply centrifuges to Teheran?
The lesson from North Korea is clear: When a country is determined to develop nuclear weapons, it will find a way to do so despite international pressure and sanctions and despite a successful Mossad chief.

When you start your Surface Pro2, your Arc Touch Mouse works perfectly.
After awhile, it stops working. To recover the Mouse and make it work again
you have to turn the power of the Arc Touch Mouse off and turn it on again. That helps for awhile, then it stops working again.
When the Arc Touch Mouse stops working you can see the light of the Arc Touch Mouse is still on.
In order to avoid this behavior you should follow the following steps:
Disable power setting from "device manger"-->"Bluetooth"-->"Marvel Avastar Bluetooth Radio Adaptor"-->"Power Management"-->Uncheck "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
I hope this helps

Has it really been five years since the first Faces of Schlock? Has it really been half a decade since this critic wrote the following: "Thanks to the Internet, the relatively inexpensive nature of filmmaking technology, the de-mystification of the post-production process via software, and two decades of readily available home video entertainment, there is a new breed of independent auteur on the pop culture scene. These film fans - most geared toward the macabre - bring new meaning to the notion of homemade b-movie madness." Though significant time has indeed passed, the personalities behind this outrageous mock fright anthology have changed very little. Wandering through their latest installment of the series (promising to highlight "Boobs and Blood"), it's clear that, while the calendar says 2010, these filmmakers are flitting around like its 2005 - or 1995 - or 1985...
The Plot:
Blood Witch
Mike Wuz Here
One Foot in the Grave
Slay Ride
The DVD:
Blood Witch (Score: ***1/2)
Mike Wuz Here (Score: ****)
One Foot in the Grave (Score: ***)
Slay Ride (Score: ***1/2)
Taken in total, the four films that make up this omnibus all suffer from ambitions the no-budget backing can't contend with. They also have various levels of amateurish acting marring their frequent magnificence. Of the quartet, Mike and Slay are the most successful, though Witch and Foot aren't very far behind. There are a couple of additional caveats that have to be considered as well. None of these films are scary - not even to the most novice of horror movie fans. They are meant to be funny first, horrifying a far off distant second. Next, don't expect a pure gore fest. While Zane Crosby is a fine F/X artists, money clearly dictated the level of arterial spray present. Finally, the "boobs" part of this presentation are all natural, slightly squishy (at least, from appearance), and adorned with more body art than Ray Bradbury's Illustrated Man. You got to love your ladies on the far side of organic to enjoy the bodkin bounty here.

ELYRIA — Signs of more robust production are returning to Invacare Corp.'s Taylor Street facility with news that some laid-off employees are being recalled.
Lara Mahoney, company spokeswoman, said a small group of associates have been hired. However, the number is too small to quantify. They will be placed in a variety of positions in the facility.
"It's a small number, but I know it is a goal to return to full capacity at the facility," she said. "Is this good news? Yes, it is, but we still have a ways to go."
The number is dwarfed by the number of those laid off between December 2012 and mid-2013, when Invacare was forced to halt the design, manufacture and distribution of manual and power wheelchairs at the plant under a consent decree with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
In total, 235 employees lost their jobs and the company was forced to demonstrate to the federal agency's satisfaction that it was in compliance with quality regulations and standards.
Mahoney said to that extent, the company continues to work through the process of winning final approval.
"As we previously said, under the consent decree, we had to undergo three third-party audits that were to be submitted to the FDA," she said. "Two have been filed and accepted by the FDA, and we expect a third one to be filed this month."
After the third-party audit reports are filed, Mahoney said the FDA will do its own inspection of the facility, which will likely include some time for observation and discussion among company officials.
"After that process is complete, and I have no timetable as to when that might be, we should be given the green light to resume full production at the Taylor Street facility," Mahoney said.
The consent decree has not stopped all activity at the facility. It continues to produce certain wheelchairs with documentation from customers stating that the Invacare products are the only ones to fit their specific medical needs. In addition, the facility still is able to produce parts and components for other Invacare facilities.

Eggs are cooking. You can see them in the pan on the lower left, and see the split eggshells hanging from their strings above the pan, about the middle of the frame. Astonishingly, this worked perfectly the first (and only) time it was ever tried.
Note half-cooked pancake on plate; the first frying pan was supposed to flip the pancake into the second frying pan. Instead, it overshot. leapfrogged the pancake all the way over the second pan and onto the plate. It in fact landed half on the plate, which was pretty cool.

[1]Many customers of JPMorgan Chase's (NYSE:JPM[2]) Chase Bank found themselves unable to access their accounts online[3] on the evening of March 18. Those that could were shocked to see their account balances listed as $0.
The bank moved quickly to reassure customers that it hadn't been hacked during the night. A bank spokesperson attributed the access problems "an internal issue" with the bank's system, CBS News noted.
Chase announced via Twitter that the problem, which last about two hours, had been fixed.
Only customer checking accounts were affected by the glitch. Mortgage accounts and credit banking accounts did not experience any problems.
In September, a number of banks including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America (NYSE:BAC[4]) and Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC[5]) were attacked by hackers[6]. An Islamic militant group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Shares of JPMorgan Chase slipped fractionally in Monday morning trading.

text: Wisconsin bowler takes singles lead at OC Matt Cannizzaro and Emil Williams March 20, 2012 BATON ROUGE, La. - In three previous trips to the United States Bowling Congress Open Championships, Andrew Kleutgen of Wild Rose, Wis., excelled in the team event, averaging more than 17 pins higher than doubles and singles. His 2012 USBC Open Championships campaign didn't get off to the best start, however, as he shot 541 in team Monday. Things then got much worse before they got better during doubles and singles at the Baton Rouge River Center on Tuesday night, but the trip ended on a happy note as Kleutgen slid into the Regular Singles lead with a 785 series. The 22-year-old right-hander struggled with his footing throughout doubles, fouled twice and even fell on the lane at one point. His struggles resulted in a 483 series, the lowest of his short tournament career, and left him on pace for a career-low all-events total, too. But, a new heel and a pep talk from his longtime friend and doubles partner, Mike Cole, helped him rebound with games of 219, 276 and 290. Ryan Whitney of Lewisville, Texas, previously held the Regular Singles lead with 773. "It's unreal," said Kleutgen, who made his fourth Open Championships appearance. "I had no idea I was bowling that good. It's really great and just an awesome feeling. At first, I told myself the tournament was over, and I had wasted my money. But Mike told me to forget about it and get lined up for singles, so I pulled out another ball and got lined up. He really calmed me down." Kleutgen had problems with the heel of his bowling shoe, and unfortunately, his bowling equipment. "Doubles was rough," said Kleutgen, who bowls league at Plainfield Bowl in Plainfield, Wis. "I was bowling well to begin the set, and then my heel fell off. I tried to put it back on, and it just wouldn't stay. I fell twice, and I fouled twice. After that, I wasn't comfortable at all. And, to top it all off, my thumb sleeve came out." Once singles began, Kleutgen was able to stay in the moment but had no idea he had a chance to take the lead heading into the final frames. "I looked at it as a whole new tournament," Kleutgen said. "Once doubles was over, it was a new tournament. I made the switch to an older heel from another pair of shoes. I was able to put it past me and start fresh. I really had no idea I was close. I was actually a little upset with myself because I knew I could have shot 800. I just can't describe the feeling right now. It's great." Heading into this year's event, Kleutgen was averaging 217.9 in team, 200.7 in singles and 200.1 in doubles for a composite average of 206.2. His stellar singles effort this year helped him to a 1,809 all-events total. As an 11-year-old, Kleutgen was a spectator at the 2003 Open Championships in Knoxville, Tenn., and witnessed his father and another bowler start a game with 10 consecutive strikes. Although neither competitor rolled a perfect game, that image stood out in his mind. Since that moment, he has wanted to win an eagle. "I know I'm young, but it's a goal of mine," Kleutgen said. "This is what I've wanted since I was 11 years old. I watched my dad and another bowler have the front 10 at the same time, and that's when I knew I wanted this."Sponsors for the 2012 USBC Open Championships include Circus Circus Reno, Eldorado Hotel Casino Reno and Silver Legacy Resort Casino Reno. Other sponsors include the Belle of Baton Rouge, official brackets sponsor; Kegel, official lane maintenance provider; Humana, official registration sponsor; Bud Light and Budweiser, official beer sponsors; The Advocate, official publication sponsor; Brunswick, official lane provider; Steltronic, official scoring system; Storm Bowling Products and Nationwide Insurance.

So what is the US Postal Service is 'broke?' That doesn't actually mean that they need to get their spending under control or anything stupid like that right? I mean, they still suck on the teet of the taxpayer, so why not spend another $2.2 million tax dollars on a conference in Little Moscow aka San Francisco?
Documents obtained by local California TV station KTVU reveal that Postal Service will end up spending $2.2 million on the four-day National Postal Forum conference at the Moscone Center in March.
KTVU reports that between travel, exhibit space and other aspects of the trip will cost the postal service $2.2 million. There will also be workshops, golf, a dance party, music entertainment, and a taste of San Francisco banquet, according to the report.
USPS explained to KTVU that the Forum will help to make money by creating future business, claiming that last year the Forum conference in Orlando generated $73,000 for each dollar they spent.

Good Points
Dropped from 1.5 meters onto concrete and despite big dent, still works fine,
does EMS, send ringtones & pictures,
make your own bitmaps on computer to replace logos / screensavers,
included data cable (which siemens want copious ammounts of money for as a separate - £40),
excellent ringtone editor - I am experienced with PC midi editors, and this comes quite close to full blown midi software! - use crotchets, quavers & rests and stuff like that. name a song, you can make it),
GPRS (untested)
Bad Points
Quite complicated software - address book especially unuseful (you can copy ppls details to it, but not back onto the sim),
not colour screen (what you expect for £99),
screen scratches easily (same as most mobiles) & no way to replace screen (as can be done on nokia-via a new cover),
General Comments
Well done, you have observed the first sensible rule of capitalism - don't believe the hype, it's nearly always craap. However, after reading extensive reviews, some from this site, i bought the Siemens s45 mobile phone. It must be understood that this fone is very much aimed at business.
The deal: I got a pay-as-you-go fone on T-mobile from argos.com for £99. very good deal. shop around, everywhere else sold the fone for no less than £180 on payg.
The fone: this fone has just over 1/3 MB of flexible memory, which can be accessed by the PC as a drive via the data cable. This may seem like little memory, but when ringtones only take up 1 or 2 KB each, you see my point. the fone has voice recognition for foen numbers and fone functions. this is however very patchy. eg, saying "lesbiian" aparently sounds like my recording for "calculator" this gave me & my best mate stomach ache from the hysterics. anyway, the fone has EMS, however i tried it with several other new fones and the only one to recognise the ringtones and animations i sent was my mates T68. all others just spurted out garbage and charged me 30p for 3 joint txts. that should change over time. the dictaphone is good, giving over 2 1/2 minutes of OK quality sound. not good enough for business purposes, but OK for recording the meaning of life (before you forget it) when you are drunk.
The software: the PC software that comes with it (updatable from internet) is very poorly written, but means you can use paint to design bitmap images 100x50 pixels and downloasd them to your fone as a screensaver or operator logos.
I personally feel that this looks 500% better than the previous ME45 and other vain attempts at a mp3 fone, but it has exactly the same software
This is really more of a 1st generation primative computer software. yea - it certainly could do with a fair ammount of debugging, but its a lot more versatile than most other fone software. They have tried to squeeze a lot into this fone, and they have largely succeeded in creating a great business fone.
If you can get it for between £100 - 150 then go for it, but don't get it on T-mobile PAYG - craap, i'm getting it unlocked for 15£ and getting an O2 online sim.
Written on: 24/05/2003
I agree with the ur appraisal on the phone's functions. But the phone itself feels fragile, I had to buy a leather case just in case anything happens to it. And also on the second day of using it I already experienced my first sim card error, and the phone stopped during and sms send and I had to reset it. No more trouble yet, though I sense Siemens tried to cram too much into the phone thus the bugs and glitches. Or do you think I am worrying too much?

Washington (AFP) Jan 5, 2011
An Amnesty report laid bare Wednesday horrific accounts of rape in Haiti's squalid refugee camps a year after a devastating quake left many struggling to rebuild their shattered lives.
They are women like Guerline, who two months after losing her husband when their home crumbled to the ground in the devastating quake, had to watch as her teenage daughter was raped in a makeshift tarpaulin camp in Port-au-Prince.
"Four men raped her. She is 13 years old," Guerline told Amnesty International researchers, who compiled the report after interviewing more than 50 women and girls in Haiti's post-quake camps.
"They told me that if I talked about it, they would kill me. They said that if I went to the police, they would shoot me dead.
"I'm scared. There is nowhere safe where I can live, so I had to keep quiet," said Guerline, who, like all the women interviewed for the report, was given a false name to protect her from reprisals.
Guerline was raped on the same night as her daughter by hooded men in the tent city. She can't get the events of that terrible night out of her head.
Amnesty said little is being done to help her and other victims of rape and sexual violence, old woes for Haiti that worsened after the earthquake killed over 230,000 people, injured 300,000 others and flattened large tracts of the capital.
The destruction and death meant many women and girls lost the family and community networks that used to shield them from the threats they now face. Precarious living conditions in the camps further worsened their already dire situation.
"The lack of security in and around the camps is one of the main factors contributing to sexual and other forms of gender-based violence," the report said.
But the government, which was also crippled by the quake that brought down the presidential palace and scores of other official buildings, has made little progress in resettling Haitians or ensuring they are not in danger in the camps.
A year after the quake, some 1.05 million Haitians still live in 1,200 such camps. Most of those displaced by the quake are women.
"There is no security for women and girls in the camps," said Gerardo Ducos, Amnesty International's lead Haiti researcher.
"Armed gangs attack at will, safe in the knowledge that there is little prospect that they will be brought to justice."
Most rape victims are assaulted by armed men and gangs of youths who roam the poorly lit, overcrowded camps after dark.
Few of the rapes are reported to the police or health authorities, either because the victims fear reprisals or because they don't know who to turn to for help.
Women who did report a rape to the authorities said they were either told that nothing could be done for them, or were asked to pay the police -- with money they don't have -- for inquiries.
As a result, few of the women's attackers are ever brought to justice and they continue to prey on women and girls with impunity, the report said.
Myriam was raped when she was 11.
Marie was raped by three men just steps from the main police station in Port-au-Prince.
Suzie was gang-raped in front of her children.
"Women victims of rape should go to hospital, but I didn't go because I didn't have any money," she told Amnesty.
"I don't know where there is a clinic offering medical treatment for victims of violence," Suzie said, unaware that the Haitian government runs a program for victims of rape, mostly free of charge, at Port-au-Prince's general hospital, which is a 15-minute walk away from where she was raped.
Marie said she would have "loved to go to the police but they don't listen to what you are saying."
And Myriam's aunt, who has been her guardian since the little girl's mother went missing during the quake, didn't take the young victim to hospital "because you need money."
She didn't go to the police because she didn't know who had raped her niece.
"The only thing I do is go to church and pray," she said.
The grassroots Commission of Women Victims for Victims, a women's group run by survivors of sexual violence, registered more than 250 cases of rape in several camps in the five months after the quake, but Amnesty believes that number is just the tip of the iceberg.

Crippling 'indecision' blamed for slow Haiti recovery
Port-Au-Prince (AFP) Jan 5, 2011
One year after Haiti's earthquake, only five percent of the rubble has been cleared as crippling "indecision" has stalled reconstruction efforts, a new report by humanitarian group Oxfam said. "This has been a year of indecision and it has put Haiti's recovery on hold," said Roland Van Hauwermeiren, country director for Oxfam in Haiti.

The poem(s) are below...
The pay is good. The world's abrim
With men in need of dying.
Though being shunned confounds him
Some, he's past the point of trying.
Unwelcome in their church, he prays
Alone for his deliverance,
But can't recall the magic phrase
To jimmy open God's forgiveness.
He looks sidelong at all their locks,
the doors he may not enter.
And ponders hard the paradox
Of circles with no center.
The citizens avert their eyes
From him at obtuse angles.
Preserving thus in their surmise
Safe distance from the throats he strangles.
He feels no need to hide his face.
He does the work as bidden.
Yet yearns to feel the touch of grace,
Which seems perversely hidden.
The man sleeps heavy on his farm.
He's valiant in a world unkempt,
Where every breed of villain swarms.
The hangman dreams his hands are hemp.

Congresswoman claims a Filner groping (years ago)
Former San Diego mayor allegedly went in for a kiss
Don Bauder 5:30 p.m., Nov. 20
Hillcrest Over the past year in southern Hillcrest, starting at the corner of Fourth and Pennsylvania and ending at the corner of Sixth and Redwood, the sounds of construction on several condominium complexes have dominated the area. High-pitched beeping from forklifts and skip loaders echoed through the neighborhood and entered small one- and two-story apartment buildings and older houses. Cranes and building supply trucks took up coveted street parking, and construction workers on their way to job sites cluttered sidewalks early in the morning.
The residents of Hillcrest have grown accustomed to the sounds of construction in their neighborhood. In the last five years, the community has witnessed the building of more than a dozen large condominium projects. And despite the recent lull in the housing market, in the upcoming months three new mid- and high-rise developments are slated for completion, while the fate of a fourth is undecided. In all, 216 new residences are planned, not including the controversial 301 University project, which is facing harsh opposition by members of the community regarding its height and number of units.
Alan Nevin, director of economic research for Marketpointe Realty Advisors, feels that there is not enough development occurring in Hillcrest and welcomes an urban makeover. "The area should be a shining star, complete with a blend of high-styled low-, mid-, and high-rise residential projects.… Instead, it's a neighborhood of one- and two-story obsolete structures that should have been torn down decades ago. Smart growth and Hillcrest should not be mutually exclusive."
While Nevin believes that the community "should be one of the great urban cores of San Diego," John Taylor, a representative for Save Hillcrest, a group "dedicated to smart growth in the Uptown District," sees the matter through a different set of safety goggles. "Hillcrest is not an extension of downtown, nor should it be. Hillcrest is an established community with predominantly one- to three-story buildings. If one brings the downtown model to Hillcrest, you lose the eclectic feel of Hillcrest that many have worked so hard over the last 100 years to create."
In mid-November 2007, the first condos to be completed, Phase I of Atlas at Hillcrest, opened to new owners on the corner of Fourth Avenue and Pennsylvania. Texas-based D.R. Horton, the nation's largest homebuilder, developed the Atlas project.
Atlas at Hillcrest — Phase I
3687 Fourth Avenue
5 stories
63 units, approx. 15 per floor
4 floor plans, 725, 1022, 1214, 1485 square feet
1 and 2 bedrooms
Prices: $344,000–$679,000
Amenities: Bar lounge with terrace and fire pit; state-of-the-art gym; gated underground parking; pool and spa; satin nickel front door hardware; tile in entry, kitchen, and bath; granite countertops in kitchen and bath; large walk-in closets in master suites; black-on-stainless appliances including slide-in range and self-cleaning oven, built-in microwave/hood, and multicycle Energy Star dishwasher.
Atlas at Hillcrest is located near the heart of Hillcrest, just two blocks south of University Avenue. Builder D.R. Horton touts the U-shaped design of Phase I as "chic, sleek, and innovative." According to the San Diego branch of D.R. Horton, 39 of the 63 units have been sold.
Richard Benson of Benson and Bohl Architects, whose offices are four blocks away, isn't a fan of Atlas. He feels that change is inevitable for Hillcrest but that each project should complement and add to the surrounding structures. "I would like to see a variety of buildings…but they should be quality designs that add and enhance the character of the community and not just buildings that get adorned with fake cornices, as is the case with Atlas. The other problem is the fact that due to the height restrictions, they feel like they can go long instead, thus taking up the whole block, which, in my opinion, destroys that block."
Atlas at Hillcrest — Phase II
3650 Fifth Avenue
77 units, approx. 20 per floor
4 floor plans, 725, 1022, 1214, 1485 square feet
Prices: $344,000–$679,000
Completion date: January 2009
Amenities: Same as Atlas I
Phase II, east of Phase I and facing Fifth Avenue, is located on the site of the former headquarters of the American Red Cross, just north of the popular Hash House a Go-Go restaurant. Construction on Phase II has slowed. "We are focusing all of our energy onto completing Phase I and moving the new owners into the building," said Daniel Stevens, a sales representative for Atlas at Hillcrest, in mid-November of last year. None of the Phase II units are currently for sale.
Bill Hall, a 38-year resident and former beauty salon owner in Hillcrest, whose small two-story apartment building sits on Pennsylvania tucked in between Phase I and Phase II, feels that overall "the changes are for the good, besides the dust and the noise. The sidewalks will be redone, the buildings are nice looking. Obviously traffic will be an issue, but really, there's not much that I could do about it anyway."
Asked if the infrastructure of the cramped community of Hillcrest would be able to handle the addition of hundreds of new residents, Councilwoman Toni Atkins, who represents the area, said, "Our older urban neighborhoods need upgraded infrastructure.… New development does pay for much of the impact of growth through developer impact fees, fees that are charged to address the impact of increased density and population in a community. The community supported raising those fees several years ago, and they were smart to do so, because during the upturn in the real estate market, the City collected millions of dollars that have been allocated toward infrastructure projects."
Trilogy on 5th
3265–3285 Fifth Avenue
5 stories
25 units, 5 per floor
17 floor plans, 1166–2858 square feet
2–3+ bedrooms
Price: $615,000–$1,350,000
Completion date: March 2008
Amenities: Nine- to ten-foot ceilings in living areas; hard-surface flooring in entries, kitchens, and baths; plush carpeting; granite countertops in kitchens and baths; top-quality appliances; and a double party-wall system for sound insulation.
Four blocks south of the temporary sidewalks of Atlas at Hillcrest Phase II, located on the corner of Fifth and Thorn, Trilogy on 5th occupies the former site of an old Craftsman house, that, according to the builder's website, was the home of a man named Deroy Spaulding. The Waverly Electric Car Company, a Midwest firm that, according to the Indiana Historical Society's website, was "the first company to successfully produce several battery-powered vehicles for neighborhood use" during the early 20th Century, also had an office in that block.
Wow, your information on Biarritz seems to be way outdated. THere has been a lot of activity on this site for weeks now. In fact, the project is getting smaller by the day. Ample amounts of construction material have been removed from the site including a temporary roofing and two walls facing 6th and Redwood.
Maybe we need to look further into what is going on with this project.
I happened to go by there today, and the project is underway again, with lots of construction activity. I took a pic; it's at: http://oi43.tinypic.com/mrbod4.jpg Any word on the developer doing the condos now? Or will it be luxury apartments instead?

Weigh In Day Discouraging
Monday, June 30, 2008
So, Monday mornings are my weigh in days. For the past 4 weeks it has been all over the place. The first week I lost 6 pounds, the second week, nothing, the third week 2 pounds and this week 1. It is discouraging because I did a better job tracking my food (even the bad stuff) and worked out more days during the week. I had even found that by tracking my food there had been times where I wasn't getting enough calories for the day.
Today I am really struggling fighting off a binge/emotional eating. The thing of it is at this rate it will take me almost a year to lose 40 pounds. I know the first 6 pounds was a lot of water so truly my rate of weight loss is pretty slow.
This week I am going to increase my time on the treadmill and see if that helps make the scale jump next Monday morning. Ugh...I am just so down today. So much hard work and for what????
Well, I guess here's to a better week this week eh?

Hey Connie!
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I KNOW you understand because we seem to have the same issues. We can do it. I have 70 to lose, and it will take me a year as well. Check in with me, okay? Let me know if you want to chat!
You should be so proud of yourself, I have never (ever) lost as much as you have. I have only gained. Period. This is the best I've done, so sparks is helping to get me REAL. I am hoping to stick with it.
Beginners luck is one thing but my plateau is coming... ugh.

I did this last month, I had a couple of sweet drinks, (sugar makes me gain water weight for some reason), and the scales were off because of my water weight, I got all depressed, and almost threw it all out the window, I lost it for a few weeks, (I am an emotional eater too), luckily my SP buddies helped me to bounce back, but the whole turn of events was useless, it was just over a few water weight pounds, that I would have most likely lost in a day or so, and I let it get to me, turns out I lost almost 7 inches last month, so I was doing something right...
Sorry I can be long winded, but I do have a point, point is, we are women, water weight don't just happen at the beginning, or during TOM, it can happen anytime, for no known reason, as long as you know you are doing right, don't be so relying on the scales, they can be misguiding... go by what you feel, if your still feeling right, and good about what your doing, it's ok, the pounds will come off eventually, and sometimes when were losing inches, we may not be showing much pound loss, the body is weird that way, hang in there, you can do this, don't let the depressing binge eating get to you.
A fellow DONE girl said today in her blog, and I love it...
"This time next year, I'll be glad I didn't quit today."
Don't forget...

A little bit is much better than none at all or a gain. Think positive and make it happen. You are doing the right thing here. Just be consistent and make what you eat and what you do count! Do not give up now and once you get going and get in the hang on things it will be no biggie at all:) You can do it!!

Don't be discouraged. Remember, this is a life long quest. I have to remind myself it's not the weight that counts; it's the changes in my life for the rest of my life. The weight WILL come off. If it's slow, well that's good because then it will be that much harder to put back on.
If I may offer a personal opinion, I don't believe in denying myself the things I love. If I want pizza one day then I will work in pizza (a moderate serving and within my calorie range.) Always denying yourself is not the answer - not for me anyway.
If I can help in any way, please spark mail me.

I know how you feel, but don't forget this is a journey, not a destination. If it takes a year to lose 40 pounds, that's ok. If you give up, a year from now you'll wish you'd lost those 40 pounds! That's what I have to tell myself. I get mad for having gained so much and having such a long way to go, but what's my alternative? I'll just keep gaining if I don't make changes. Hang in there! We're here for you!

I think everyone can totally understand what your going through. It is very discouraging and attempting to fight off the binge emotional eating is a struggle for sure. What I do is just think to myself that if I binge eat I will be further away from my goal. You are doing the right things and the results will pay off as long as you stay strong!

Many people are clearly still very angry at, what they perceive to be, Liberal Democrats waving through Conservative plans to fragment and privatise the NHS – despite it not being in the Coalition Agreement – and believe that, within that, mental health treatment in the NHS will inevitably suffer.
I do not think that anybody who reads these pages will believe that the party can regain every vote which we have lost because of the NHS Bill.
I can only speak from personal experience and for me there have been two clear problems during my own course of treatment for anxiety and depression which I think need to be addressed urgently.
When I first went to my GP in July I immediately got the impression that he was doing things 'by the book' and did not have a real interest in listening to what my problems were or how best to help me. A friend of mine has told me that he has known people who have gone to the doctors suffering from anxiety and depression who feel that they have had anti-depressants 'thrown at them' – without a willingness to discuss a more detailed course of treatment. I am not for a moment saying that all doctors are like this, but this has been my personal experience and it is why I have decided to switch to a different GP.
The second problem has been the amount of time which it took between being referred to a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy course and actually starting on the course. For me, four months was too long to be struggling on my own and it was only the help of friends and colleagues which made this bearable. I am fully aware that for people who are more ill than I am and who do not have access to any support, such a period of time would prove to be far too long.
I hope that these are two problems regarding provision of mental health care in the NHS which will be improved by giving mental health parity of esteem with physical health in the NHS mandate.
The treatment which I have received has so far been incredibly helpful – providing lots of helpful tasks and activities which can help deal with mental illness – and all of my friends have been incredibly supportive and have offered to help in any way they can (especially one who spent the first six months of 2012 in a coma, attached to a life support machine!).
I truly believe that such support and understanding is a direct result of the growing understanding regarding mental health and the effects it can have on people from all walks of life. I hope that putting mental health on the same level as physical health within the NHS mandate will continue to improve the access people have to mental health treatments in the future.

Public debate on BBC funding
Plans for a digital licence fee have provoked hostility
By Media Correspondent Torin Douglas
Viewers and listeners have been invited to air their views on BBC funding following hostile reactions to plans for a "digital licence fee" and privatisation of parts of the corporation.
The government has invited the public - and broadcasting organisations - to air their views on the report on BBC funding by the independent panel, chaired by the economist Gavyn Davies.
He said he hoped there would be "a vigorous debate" and these responses would be taken into account when the government considered the panel's review in November.
The closing date for responses is 1 November.
MPs on the culture, media and sport select committee will also be conducting hearings into the review, and their report will be taken into account before ministers take any decisions.
In particular, the government says it wants to hear:
Report attacked
The immediate reactions to the report, within hours of its publication, were generally hostile. The BBC, while welcoming the panel's endorsement of its 'digital vision', regretted it had not proposed a sufficient increase in the Corporation's funding to carry it out.
And its director general Sir John Birt said the main proposals were "not in the best interests of the licence payer".
Commercial broadcasters attacked the proposed increase in the licence fee, calling it a "digital poll tax".
The head of Carlton TV suggested it might even call into question ITV's support for licence fee. Age Concern also attacked the proposal.
Broadcasting union BECTU accused the Davies Committee of "vandalising the BBC" in its proposals to sell off BBC Resources and 49% of BBC Worldwide - and the pressure group Voice of the Listener and Viewer was equally critical.
Most newspapers also criticised the recommendations.
One exception was the Guardian, which said in a leading article "The Davies report has got most of it right", praising its "cool and laudable grasp of this complex issue".

May 19, 2011 Phil Blackwell Uncategorized
For the Fayetteville-Manlius track and field teams, last Wednesday's trip to Rome Free Academy proved quite harrowing as it nearly suffered a sweep to the Black Knights.
The Hornets did hold on for a 72-68 victory on the boys side, but F-M's girls took a 78-63 defeat, burned by its inability to secure any points in field events.
Heather Martin still took two of the sprints, as she ran the 200-meter dash in 26.3 seconds and covered 400 meters in 59 seconds flat. Martin also helped F-M win both the 4×400 (4:27.0) and 4×800 (10:19.0) relays with Jillian Fanning, Katie Sischo, Courtney Chapman, Kelly Muller and Natalie Zazzara.
In the distance events, Fanning needed 2:21.5 to win the 800-meter run, while Katie Brislin tore to victory in the 1,500-meter run in 4:47.2 and Alana Pearl ran 3,000 meters in 10:53.8. Isabelle Carapella contributed a victory in the 400-meter hurdles in 1:15.3.
However, RFA won every field events, including a sweep by Allison Cosimeno in the shot put and discus, as Kayla Husband took the 100-meter hurdles and triple jump.
Meanwhile, in the boys meet F-M got a boost from sprinter Austin Perez, who worked his way to a win in the 100 in 11.2 seconds and also took the 200 in 22.8 seconds. Perez also teamed with Langston Lightcap, Aaron Blitz and Mark McGurrin to speed to first place in the 4×400 relay in 3:32.1.
Nick Ryan supplied more points with his sweep of all three distance events. He ran the 800 in 2:05.1, covered the mile in 4:23.6 and, in the 3,200-meter run, earned the title in 9:44.3.
Matt Corbett tied RFA's John Swancott as they both cleared 5 feet 2 inches in the high jump. In the 4×800, McGurrin, Lightcap, Ben Thomas and Eric Billinson won in 9:01.9. RFA's Josh Maiolo led his side with three wins in the 110 high hurdles (16.5 seconds), long jump (19 feet 11 3/4 inches) and triple jump (40 feet 3 1/2 inches).

Press Release: IMF Staff Statement at the Conclusion of the Article IV Discussions with Costa Rica
December 14, 2007
An International Monetary Fund (IMF) staff mission led by Mr. Dominique Desruelle, Chief of the Central America Division in the Western Hemisphere Department, issued the following statement on December 14, 2007:
"An IMF mission visited San Jose during December 3-14 for the 2007 Article IV discussions with Costa Rica to review economic developments and policy prospects. The mission met with Minister of the Presidency Rodrigo Arias, Central Bank Governor Francisco de Paula Gutiérrez, Finance Minister Guillermo Zúñiga, Minister of Foreign Trade Marco Vinicio Ruiz, other senior government officials, parliamentarians, representatives of the private sector, and think tanks. The mission thanks the authorities for the very close cooperation and warm reception it received during its stay in San Jose.
"Benefiting from the authorities' sound economic policies, Costa Rica's economy has continued to grow rapidly over the past 12 months but headline inflation remains high, partly caused by high international oil and food prices. The strong economic performance has been driven by both private consumption and investment as well as external demand. Exports have increased substantially despite some appreciation of the real exchange rate, indicating that the economy remains competitive. However, there are signs that the economy may be overheating such as labor market pressures, rapid growth of consumer goods imports, and persistently high inflation of non-tradable goods.
"The near-term outlook is favorable, and has been strengthened by the ratification of the Central America Free Trade Agreement with the United States (CAFTA-DR). For 2008, economic growth is expected to revert to a rate of around 5 percent, in line with potential growth. This growth outlook is predicated on a U.S. slowdown and a moderate reduction in world growth. The authorities and the mission concurred on the need to pay close attention to changes in the global outlook, which has become subject to greater risks.
"The mission congratulated the authorities on advances made in strengthening economic fundamentals and noted that the coming year provided a great opportunity to consolidate this progress. The authorities and the mission agreed on the main elements of the reform agenda, namely passage of legislation associated with CAFTA-DR, a further strengthening of public finances, additional steps toward the adoption of inflation targeting, and improvements in financial regulation and supervision.
"The mission welcomed the continued improvement in public finances, which has resulted in the best fiscal position in over a decade. Revenue performance has been strong as a result of both administrative measures and the economic expansion. This has allowed for a substantial reduction in the public debt-to-GDP ratio. The mission agreed with the fiscal stance envisaged in the 2008 budget, which would continue to support the authorities'disinflation efforts and bring down public debt levels further.
"The mission noted the steps taken this year to reorient spending toward priority areas, including social spending, which is already having a positive impact on poverty reduction. It welcomed the measures envisaged in the 2008 budget to continue in this direction. The mission strongly supported the authorities' intention to pursue tax reform in 2008 to finance additional priority spending in later years. It congratulated the authorities on the introduction of multiyear scenarios in the 2008 budget documents. Building on this first step, the mission discussed moving toward a full-fledged medium-term budget framework, which would link policy objectives, spending levels, and the need to raise additional revenue.
"The mission fully shares the authorities'medium-term objective of bringing inflation down to that of Costa Rica's trading partners and concurs with the planned move to an inflation targeting regime. In that context, it will be important to make further progress toward lowering underlying inflation over the next twelve months. Given external price shocks, which could adversely impact inflationary expectations, and domestic price pressures, the authorities and the mission agreed on the need to make monetary policy more effective in order to curtail demand and meet the inflation objectives. The mission welcomed the authorities' plan to proceed speedily with a recapitalization of the central bank.
"The mission agreed with the authorities on the need for further financial sector reform. It also shared the authorities' concern about rapid credit growth, which will require continued close monitoring. Further efforts would be needed to raise the regulatory and supervisory regime to international standards. Passage of the law on strengthening financial supervision would be an important first step. In addition, the adoption of an inflation targeting regime, which will imply greater exchange rate flexibility, should go hand-in-hand with the issuance of financial derivates' regulation, development of currency hedging instruments, and improved monitoring of foreign-exchange and interest risk in the financial system.
"The IMF will maintain a close policy dialogue with the authorities as they continue implementing their reform agenda. In the coming weeks, the mission will prepare a report to the IMF's Executive Board, as a basis for a Board discussion in early 2008."

Earley injury not major
Kildare midfielder Dermot Earley is expected to be fit for the All-Ireland SFC quarter-final against Meath on Sunday.
Earley tweaked a hamstring during last weekend's win over Monaghan, but the injury is not considered serious enough to keep him out of this weekend's Croke Park encounter.
Ken Donnelly is also an injury doubt, but is expected to be fit enough to play some part, probably off the bench.

The U.S. gets its latest reading on the economy today. Analysts are expecting growth in GDP to slow for the first three months of the year due -- in part -- to bad weather. Many people consider Gross Domestic Product the final word on how the economy is doing. But does the measure of money changing hands really tell us how well we are doing?
Kristen Lewis, co-director of Measure of America, joins Marketplace Morning Report host David Brancaccio to discuss her organization's alternative measure and how various localities and ethnic groups are faring. Click on the audio player above to hear more.

A conceit or fancy may be wholly unfounded, while a conception always has, or is believed to have, some answering reality. (Compare REASON.) An intellectual fancy or conceit may be pleasing or amusing, but is never worth serious discussion; we speak of a mere fancy, a droll or odd conceit.
