The New York Times last week announced that it would begin hosting the popular political blog FiveThirtyEight, and bring founder Nate Silver into its stable of regular contributors.
The NYT's justification:
Mr. Silver, a statistical wizard, became a media star during the last presidential election season for his political projections based on dissections of polling data. He retains all rights to FiveThirtyEight and will continue to run it himself, but "under the banner and auspices of NYTimes.com," The Times said in a news release.
In other words, what Silver writes suddenly has more weight. And on Sunday, the fivethirtyeight.com author ranked the nation's pollsters. Georgia's two polling firms, Strategic Vision and InsiderAdvantage, fared poorly.
Strategic Vision was blacklisted "for extreme misconduct; substantial likelihood that polls were fabricated." See the background here. Dave Johnson, the CEO of Strategic Vision, has denied wrongdoing, but has severely cut back his firm's polling.
InsiderAdvantage of Atlanta, run by Matt Towery, ranked second-to-last on the Nate Silver ranking.
Towery has partnered with WSB-TV over a series of polls in the race for governor, and most recently declared that former Gov. Roy Barnes had a 64 percent lead in the Democratic race.
Towery declared himself puzzled by Silver's ranking. "Ask him to show me the races that we've missed," Towery said.
The InsiderAdvantage CEO also pointed the curious to a 2008 address at Fordham University where Silver said the following, as noted by the university's public relations team:
Silver's analysis showed that Zogby, AP-GFK and Insider Advantage were the most accurate of all polling firms, although the percentages separating them were small. Comparing polling firms can be misleading, he said, because pollsters such as Rasmussen Reports include states like Alaska, whereas Zogby sticks to so-called battleground states.

Like Mark Twain said, there are "Lies, damned lies, and statistics". But one thing we can be 100% certain on is that Roy Barnes is the wrong choice for Georgia. Everyone needs to vote against Mr. Barnes and rally behind House Minority Leader DuBose Porter in the primary regardless of political affiliation. He is a true statesman and by far the most qualified candidate on either side of the race.

DuBose, the anti-choice candidate, is not what Democrats in Georgia need.
Of course, neither is Roy.
I'll vote for Poythress.

NO! Bad boy, bad! Don't you dare turn this into a debate on abortion! It's what the conservatives use to blindly beat dems even though they have never even tried to get a bill through both houses and we must not reduce ourselves to that level. Listen to Carol Porter, she states: "The question politicians really need to be asked is not, "Are you pro-life or pro-choice," but instead, 'will you work to reduce abortions?' My answer is yes, but if you have to give me a label you will have to call me pro-Georgian." I freaking LOVE this woman, Carol Porter for Governor!

Right. Fordham's the source for truth and honor….NOT! Why do you thing Avery Dulles was a cardinal there vetting good Roman Catholics to enter the FBI to slaughter the Black and White Davidians at Waco…for outing the Roman Anti-Christ on shortwave radio?
G-d made Matt Towery bald…and runt Towery tries to hide his baldness as a fraud and fake "man."
Rome is the Anti-Christ and Towery works for them, urinating on the graves of all righteous – Black and White = Southerners' ancestors.

FiveThiryEight's response can be found at
Commenters above that characterize the rankings as either "good" or "bad" are missing the point.
Rankings of pollsters rise and fall depending on their performance.
InsiderAdvantage has not had good performance lately.
It doesn't mean that they won't have good performance in the future.
It does mean that people are now watching pollsters for their accuracy.
FiveThiryEight does point out that InsiderAdvantage is using misleading marketing material.

FoxNews is "Vatican TV," started by Mr. Vatican himself, Roger Ailes…who brought America a draft-dodging pederast, Rush Limbaugh, who stated "The Roman Catholic Church is the rock-ribbed backbone of American moral values." The Gay Old Pervert party, with undercover operative like the accursed Matt Towery, are working to usurp Our Nation in every way possible…from debasement of the currency, to illegal immigration, to false war off 9/11. The Founder called it "the real Anti-Christ." If any here think himself smarter than Jefferson, do tell.

CNN and Fox both use outside polling firms for their polls. Strangely enough, the names of those firms were omitted. You can also find different sources for ranking the firms as well.
Pollsters are having a difficult time with accuracy thanks to cell phones, VOIP, and sources like MagicJack. Samples are becoming more skewed among the 18-34 demographic and pollsters are trying to compensate for that. Add to the fact some firms use random digit dialing and there is a flaw in assuming the person answering is even being honest about being registered. Other firms use voter files themselves which cut that problem out from the get-go. I did not see PPP, Mason-Dixon, and the Polling Company on there which are three larger firms. Add to the fact the above list was solely based on the 2008 Presidential. Nationwide samples are harder to base results on. And picking one result and judging firms by is not scientific either.

To applaud or not to applaud: a predictable State of the Union ritual [Photo: CNN].
The State of the Union speech gives Washington a chance to reacquaint itself with ritual. When else do we need to know the name of the House doorkeeper? What other extended opportunity do we get to study the body language of the president, the vice president and the speaker of the house -- in a single screen shot?

Gwen's Take: The art of the authentic apology
Posted: Thu, 01/09/2014 - 4:54pm
In many ways, it was a relief to hear New Jersey Governor Chris Christie declare he was apologetic, humiliated, embarrassed and sad after an odd tale of bridge and tunnel retribution exploded on his watch this week.
"I had no knowledge or involvement in this issue, in its planning or its execution," Christie said of the George Washington Bridge lane closures allegedly carried out by his staff last fall. "And I am stunned by the abject stupidity that was shown here, regardless of what the facts ultimately uncover. This was handled in a callous and indifferent way."

JOHNSTOWN, N.Y. – A local businesswoman almost fell victim to a National Grid phone scheme.
Chauncey McCormick runs her business, Grandma Millie's Bakery, in Johnstown. When she received a call from someone claiming to be National Grid, she was afraid she had missed a payment.
"National Grid says they're coming to shut us off in 45 minutes if you don't give them $700 right now," she explained.
The cost of McCormick's electric bill has been very high the past couple months. She had to work out a payment plan with National Grid.
"I'm getting scared thinking, 'Oh, my God. I don't want my electric shut off,'" she said.
Worried that cutting the power would affect her business, McCormick dropped what she was doing and checked her records.
"Then all of a sudden it dawned on me this is a scam," she said. "I was like, 'Uh, uh. You are not doing this to me buddy."
McCormick said she knew it was a trick to get money from people already struggling to make payments. Patrick Stella is the spokesperson for National Grid. He said this scheme isn't new.
"They will keep calling until they find someone who may be behind on their bills," he said.
But they couldn't get McCormick.
"He said 'You better make a payment and you'd better make it now or we are shutting you off,'" she said. "And I said, 'Like hell you will' and hung up."
Now McCormick is worried others might fall victim to the same scheme.
"I kept thinking what if it was my grandma sitting at home a sweet, nice lady," she said.
McCormick wants to warn others, and National Grid said she did the right thing by hanging up and calling National Grid directly.

A recent comment where I was asked about the bonding process closed with,
"Thanks…glad I stumbled upon you. I'm definitely thrilled to hear that life is really bumpy for you too.
It's reassuring."
If nothing else I have learned that my odd ability to bounce back constantly has been either enlightening or comforting for others. A kind of, "If Cindy can get through all her monstrous stuff each day, I suppose I can deal with mine." Or the best I ever heard was, "When I think my life stinks (although they didn't use that word, I'm cleaning it up here), I just think of your life. Then I feel better."
Glad I can be of service. We country folks, raised in the Bible Belt, do like the theory of service to others. It's the doing it that gets tough at times.
What about the bond between adopted older children and the new parents? Can it exist? Is it instantaneous? Do we simply fall in love with photo listings of cute children, imagining our soon to be sweet life with grateful orphans? Then they unpack their Pandora's Boxes at our houses and we get overwhelmed with the level of emotional damage that has been wrought upon them. Do I get to second guess my decision? Lord, I can't deal with all this?
I don't instantly fall in love with my new children. I was always happy and excited to meet them, reassurance immediately falling out of my mouth, arms open wide with a goofy grin on my face. I'd simply step in the mama mode, which left them only the children's mode to use and a pattern of stability would form and grow.
We'd have a glorious honeymoon period when I felt I could parent a thousand children, and then the facades would crumble and the testing would commence making me wonder if I still could successfully get shoes tied each morning. They'd lie, steal, manipulate, destroy, rage, cheat, be deceitful, hateful, angry, mean, rude, disobedient and demonstrate any other negative behavior that they could think of using.
Then it's really hard to love them. Early on I was very fortunate to have a caseworker who somehow got through my hard head, and she explained the acting out and testing process to me which enabled me, strengthened me for the battle, it allowed me to step back and see the behaviors differently; to understand that it wasn't about me at all.
Then it was somehow easier to love them, to see them differently, as terribly wounded individuals. It became my challenge and my goal to prove my love and commitment to them. That's where my hard-headedness really served me well.
It sure wasn't easy. I'd buckle and cry, I'd holler, fuss, and scream "Woe is me!" in prayer, but I'd always get back up and keep going. It's a wonder my caseworker would even take my phone calls as I'd complain and moan and wonder aloud why love and logic wasn't working.
Decades ago I'd run to my favorite pastors also only to gently hear the obvious, "Well who ever told you this would be easy? What did you expect?" Hearing the truth from those I respected also welded my backbone solid upright and unbreakable.
But this is how the bonds and the love grew over time. The kids watched me not quit, not dissolve into a puddle too often and they began to dare to love me back, finally understanding that this was the real deal.
Now I'm the grandmother to 13 of their children, nothing has changed. Change being their greatest fear as it always led to loss. The tough, hardened children I adopted in their pre-teens are now grown folks leaving me with the only answer I can give to other parents. This takes years and years and years, and it was never easy, but it can be done. An easy answer for a long, difficult process.

NEW YORK (CNN) — Accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's face on the cover of the latest Rolling Stone sparked a backlash against the magazine Wednesday in social media and in boardrooms around the country.
"THE BOMBER," the cover reads. "How a popular, promising student was failed by his family, fell into radical Islam and became a monster."
The photo of a tousle-haired, thinly goateed Tsarnaev is one the suspect posted online himself and has been picked up by other outlets. But a groundswell of criticism objecting to its prominent play emerged on platforms such as Twitter and Facebook and among leaders in Boston, where the marathon bombings killed three people, wounded more than 200 and led to a frantic manhunt that left a police officer dead.
Ed Kelly, president of the Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts, called it "insulting." Using Tsarnaev's booking photo might have been one thing, but a photo that shows "the innocence of youth" gives the wrong message, Kelly told CNN.
"He gave up any innocence he had on April 15, when he took the life of an innocent child, two women and then went on to execute a police officer," Kelly said.
"What he did to a city, a country, we're never going to forgive him for it," Kelly said. "We're not going to cower from it. It disturbs us that our media chooses to celebrate it."
Three prominent New England-based businesses -- CVS pharmacies, Stop & Stop, and Tedeschi Food Shops -- heard the public outcry and announced they will not sell that edition, which will be on newsstands soon.
The magazine's Facebook post of the cover image had received more than 16,000 comments by Wednesday evening.
"Oh look, Rolling Stone magazine is glamourizing terrorism. Awesome," Adrienne Graham commented on the magazine's Facebook page. "I will NOT be buying this issue, or any future issues."
Others expressed similar sentiments, and words such as "tasteless," "sickening" and "disgusting" flew around social media.
"What a slap in the face to the great city of Boston and the Marathon Bombing victims," commented Lindsey Williamson.
The cover also brought out comments from the "Free Jahar" movement. (Dzhokhar is also spelled Jahar or Djahar.)
"#BoycottRollingStone calling Djahar a monster and stirring the pot even more shame on you! Innocent until PROVEN guilty," tweeted @Jahars_Tsarnaev.
Authorities accuse Tsarnaev and his brother Tamerlan of setting off a pair of bombs just seconds apart near the finish line of the packed Boston Marathon course on Boylston Street on April 15. Tamerlan was killed during the police pursuit three nights later; Dzhokhar was captured and charged with 30 federal counts stemming from the attack. He pleaded not guilty to the charges last week.

"Love the simple yet touch-of-whimsy design of this first birthday card. Chose these for my daughter's first birthday celebration. I loved the color scheme so much I decided to base her party off of it."
"The product as a whole was just perfect!! We were worried when we ordered it but when we got the cards in they were just the way I had imagined them. I would definitely recommend this to anyone and eveyone because it is hassle free!!! And it's adjustable to everyone's preferences!!"
"I was looking for an invitation for an 80th and 85th (male) birthday, and this card was exactly what I was looking for. It's so hard not being able to see and feel the card, but it turned out to be a good weight and love the colors! (I went with the turquoise) With the black and white pictures, the invitation was a cross between vintage and modern...Love it!!"
"We are so happy with everything ,color great,fast delivery,even the birthday girl is very happy nice paper sturdy.I showed a few people they thought they are awesome I will order again .....Goober"
"It was very easy to personalize, which made my job so much easier. I had accidentally written the wrong address on my invitation, but the customer service helped me so much. I will continue to buy products from here for all types of parties."

Take two boys who are to shy to admit their feelings, a mischievious little brother and his boyfriend and an elixir? This can't be good! Frerard and Bikey :)
Gerard's POV
Frank That's what's in my head. My best friend and my secret crush. I do not like him, I love him. I can't find any fault in him cuz he's just that perfect! Just then a knock on my door was heard. I groaned and saw Mikey holding a cup of coffee. "Here bro, just to keep you alive and hope the mortician doesn't mistake you for a real corpse." Mikey chuckled. I gave a snort before taking the mug from his hands. "How's it going with you and Bob? I haven't seen you much since you started dating him." I asked. Yes my lil bro has a boyfriend. He's bi and I'm gay. Bob helped him up and confessed his love to Mikey after he found out Alicia cheated on him for a girl. That bitch was playing with his heart even though she's a lesbian. But now my bro is happy and that's the important part. "It's all good Gee, he calls me his Angel." Mikey blushed while I snickered. I downed my coffee in record time and immediately felt sleepy. "Go to sleep Gee, you look tired." Mikey said and took the mug from my hands. Moments later I passed out
Hours Later
I woke up and blinked. How come everything in this room looks so big now? Just the Mikey and Bob came into view and they both grinned. I was about to flip them both the finger when I noticed I didn't have fingers or hands. I had PAWS. I gave a shriek and it sounded like a cat wail. Bob placed a small hand mirror in front of me as I gasped in shock. I was a fucking cat. I had my big hazel green eyes, and jet-black medium fur. I saw medium, more like... nearly at the adult stage but still classed as kitten. "What the fuck did you guys do?!?!" I screamed. "It's for your own good Gerard, Bob and I are sick and tired of your lifeless attitude and the fact that you can't ask Frank out. And we can understand your talk cuz it says in the book that the person/persons who made the elixir can talk to the victim." Mikey explained quietly. A few weeks ago they got this black book that they kept to themselves. I think that was a black magic book.
Mikey craddled me in his arms and the three of us went to the living room to watch TV. Mom was also in this so it really pissed me off, so we decised to watch NCIS Los Angeles. Not ten minutes later the doorbell rang. Bob opened it to reveal a heartbroken and crying Frankie. Mom who was baking at the time walked in and saw Frank. "Oh My Sweet Lord! Frank what happened?" she cooed while comforting my Frankie. "They disowned me, I told them I was gay and they screamed and kicked me out." Frank sobbed. I jumped off Mikey's arms and rubbed my head on Frank's arm. He looked at me in surprise. "Who's this? You never told me you got another cat and where's Gee?" he asked while scratching the top of my head. I purred like a normal cat would. "Just getting Bunny (Mikey's adorable cat!) a friend to play with, his name is Shadow, and Gee's visiting family outta town. He'll be back next week."Mikey explained. Frank looked disappointed. "Frank you will live with us from now on! You'll sleep in the spare room and when Gee gets back in his room!" Mikey sang gleefully. Mom laughed as well as Bob. "Thank you guys, I've got all my stuff outside and my guitar." Frank said and half an hour later we were all watching the NCIS LA marathon with me on his lap. Maybe being a cat isn't so bad.

DAYTONA BEACH SHORES -- While some Volusia County municipalities want to establish new community redevelopment areas, the City Council here bucked the trend by voting to terminate the city's CRA.
City leaders say the reason for killing its CRA is simple -- it hasn't made any money.
Steve Whitmer, the city's finance director, said only one number was an important factor in the City Council's decision, the amount of revenue the CRA is expected to generate this year and in future years.
That number? "Zero," Mr. Whitmer said.
Daytona Beach Shores' CRA was established in 2005, shortly after the hurricanes of 2004 did considerable damage along Atlantic Avenue, with a sunset after 15 years. The taxable value of the CRA has been below its 2005 baseline valuation at least the last three years, and city staff believes the valuation would not see any substantial increase in the near future, Mr. Whitmer said, adding he felt the city keeping its CRA would be "pointless."
"It really makes no sense to have this thing," Mr. Whitmer said.
After city leaders voted unanimously to terminate the CRA, the Volusia County Council must now give final approval on the city's action. City Manager Mike Booker indicated the county also is in favor of terminating the CRA.
"It's a prudent thing to do with the way our economy has turned," Mr. Booker said. "I think our council has recognized that."
CRAs are special taxing districts designed to generate revenue aimed at stimulating economic development and eliminating blight. Daytona Beach Shores' CRA is just one of about 15 in Volusia County; other cities with CRAs include Daytona Beach, DeLand, Holly Hill, New Smyrna Beach, Port Orange and South Daytona.
Mr. Booker said the Shores CRA made money in its first few years, enabling the city to make improvements, such as the development of public parks and more than 300 off-beach parking spaces.
"I think we did accomplish a lot in a short period of time," Mr. Booker said.
But with the onset of the real estate bubble in 2007 and the financial crisis in 2008, the CRA crashed as well.
"There really is not much hope it would make money again," Mr. Booker said.
Mayor Harry Jennings agreed, simply saying, "I think it's in the best interest of the city at the time."
After Mr. Whitmer said Volusia County leaders had considered the Daytona Beach Shores CRA a "poster child" for how other communities should manage their redevelopment areas, Councilwoman Jennie Celona said county leaders "are probably going to call us the poster child again, for terminating."
Whether other communities follow the lead of Daytona Beach Shores and eliminate their redevelopment districts, city leaders believe the economy's adverse effects on its CRA could cause other local governments to rethink the idea of new CRAs.
"I believe it will be a very cold day before the county decides to do a new CRA anywhere," Mr. Whitmer said.

Don't be too hard on yourself. I'm sure there are some out there who appreciate such puns. Not that I can prove it, but I justin stinctually know it to be berlievable. I mean, didn't JFK himself stutteringly declare with absolute sincerity, "Ich bin ein Be-Berliner"? I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know Jack.
So keep it up, my friend. Others are sure to join in. Sometime.

Skylar Diggins fires 33, leads No.2 Notre Dame past No. 9 Tennessee
Knoxville, TN, United States (4E Sports) – Skylar Diggins fired a career-high 33 points to lead No. 2 Notre Dame to a 77-67 triumph over No. 9 Tennessee Monday at Thompson-Boling Arena.
Diggins made 13 of 26 attempts while Jewell Loyd added 10 as the Fighting Irish extended their winning streak to 14 games and improved to 19-1 (7-0 Big East).
Diggins scored the biggest output against the Lady Vols this season, the most since A'dia Matthews had 34 for Kentucky on Jan. 12, 2012.
Kayla McBride added nine markers and 10 caroms for the Fighting Irish, who also ended the Lady Volunteers' nine-game winning run.
Freshman Bashaara Graves tallied 19 points and 13 rebounds, Taber Spani had 12 and Meighan Simmons added 11 for the Lady Volunteers, who slipped to 16-4.
Graves double-double was her team-leading eighth of the season, and 10 of her rebounds came on the offensive glass, a career best.
In the first half, the Lady Vols jumped out to an early 5-0 lead but the Fighting Irish responded with an 8-0 run of their own to take a 14-9 advantage.
The game was close in the first half until Michaela Mabrey buried a triple in the dying seconds to give the Fighting Irish a 33-29 lead at the break.
Behind the hot shooting of Diggins, Notre Dame opened the second half on 8-3 run, extending its lead to 41-32, the largest of the game.
A few minutes later, the Fighting Irish launched an 11-0 run to make it 54-37 but the Lady Vols countered with an 18-5 offensive onslaught to cut the deficit to just six, 67-61, with less than five minutes remaining.
However, Diggins buried a triple to put the Fighting Irish ahead, 74-64, and keep the Lady Vols' comeback attempt at bay.
Before the match, Tennessee honored Lady Vol head coach emeritus Pat Summit in a banner-raising ceremony.
Summitt became the 11th Vol to have a banner raised in their honor at Thompson-Boling Arena, and just the sixth Lady Vol.
Summitt's banner was raised in the rafters alongside Daedra Charles, Brigette Gordon, Tamika Catchings, Chamique Holdsclaw, and Holly Warlick.
During her tenure from 1974-2012, the Hall of Famer coach accumulated 1,098 wins and eight national championships. She resigned in April after announcing in 2011 that she has early-onset dementia.

Chapter Three: Dead on Arrival6 Reviews
Chaotic adventure with Patrick as he and Gerard goto Joe's house.
"Holy crap!! What the fuck!?" he yelled as he he saw Patrick sitting at the end of his bed smiling at him.
"I set my clock early cause I know I'm always late!" sang Patrick.
Patrick stared at Gerard smiling.
"WHAT?!" screamed Gerard.
Patrick giggled. "There's something in your nose."
Gerard blushed "How did you get into my house?! Why are you here!?" yelled Gerard in Patrick's innocent face.
Patrick looked guilty. "I was just stopping by to give you a ride to Joe's apartment...remember?"
Gerard felt bad for acting so mean to poor Patrick. "Hey man, I'm sorry. It's just, it's scary to wake up to a strange man staring at me."
Patrick grinned and said joyfully, "It's okay buddy! I'll be outside waiting in my car!" Patrick happily walked out of Gerard's bedroom.
Gerard's clothes was already packed. He wore a black long sleeve shirt and his ripped up jeans. He didn't bother brushing his black hair.
Gerard went to Patrick's pink convertable...err, ok. Gerard sat down in the passenger's seat and looked out the window. Patrick began to drive his car. Gerard naturally doesn't like silence, and no one was talking so he said "I like your car" in a low voice.
"Really?! It's new, I bought it yesterday! I can't wait for the rest of the guys to see it." it was clear in Patrick's voice that he really did love his car...even if it was pink.
Gerard could tell Patrick was looking at him. He tried not to look back, but it was getting annoying.
"WHAT?! WHY DO YOU KEEP LOOKING AT ME??" yelled Gerard.
"You smell like cigarettes."
Gerard sighed. "Uh..thanks? You smell like...uh..-" Patrick looked at Gerard, waiting for him to reply. "-you smell like...vanilla." Gerard gave a cheesey grin.
"Why thank you!!!" Patrick almost yelled out of happiness.
Patrick kept Gerard "occupied" as he shared his life story.
"I use to have a pet llama named Burger. I miss him." Patrick said.
Gerard actually thought Patrick might cry. So awkward. Gerard wished he could be anywhere but there. He wanted to be at home eating his mom's outrageously good German Chocolate cake. He loved that cake, even though he was Italian...but still. The way it was decorated with those colorful tasteless sprinkles on it...oh yeah. Oh god, and the irrisistable creamy chocolate. Hell yeah.
Gerard began to drool as he thought of it.
"YO! We're here!" yelled Patrick.
Gerard groaned and stepped outside of the car.
"AH!" gasped Gerard. Patrick appeared in front of him with his suicase.
"How'd you do that?!"
"Do what?" asked Patrick.
"You...you were sitting in your car and then you just poofed right here!"
Patrick and Gerard walked into the apartment complex that Joe lived in. Joe's apartment was on the 13th (and highest) floor. Patrick bursted through the doors.
"WE'RE HERE!!!" screamed Patrick.
"Oh god! What's that smell?" Gerard gagged while covering his nose.
"You" said Pete as he walked past Gerard.
Patrick rolled his eyes and some Fre-Breeze air freshener magically appeared.
"Joe, I told you to use the fre-breeze that I bought you!" yelled Patrick as he sprayed the Lavender sented fre-breeze.
The lavender smell mixed in with the nasty smell...which wasn't to pleasant. Gerard would have to get new lungs when this was over with...if that was possible.
Joe's house was actually very pretty and fancy. The kitchen/dining room was spacious and the living room had a large window that looked out into the large city.

Retirement may be a long way off, but 30-somethings are worried about the money they'll receive after they stop working.
A new Pew survey took a look at people between 35 and 44 years old. About 49% said they had little or no confidence that they would have enough money for retirement.
The results show a major shift from just three years ago, when baby boomers were the most worried.
The results seem to have changed because the 35 to 44 age group was most likely to have bought a home at bubble prices. They've also seen their average wealth fall by $12,000 over the past decade.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 8, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- High levels of bacteria are associated with water breaking prematurely in pregnant women, a new study indicates.
Researchers arrived at their findings by analyzing samples of amniotic sacs (fetal membranes) from 48 women after they gave birth. The report is published in the Jan. 8 online issue of the journal PLoS One.
Nearly one-third of early deliveries are associated with premature rupture of fetal membranes, and it's important to learn more about why this happens, the researchers noted.
"Complications of preterm births can have long-term health effects for both mothers and children," study author Dr. Amy Murtha, associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Duke University School of Medicine, said in a Duke news release.
Further research is needed to determine whether the presence of high levels of bacteria is a cause or result of fetal membrane weakening, the investigators said.
The researchers are now investigating whether certain types of bacteria may increase the risk of premature rupture of fetal membranes. Identifying such bacteria could lead to the development of preventive treatments.
"For instance, if we think that certain bacteria are associated with premature rupturing of the membranes, we can screen for this bacteria early in pregnancy," Murtha said. Treating the affected women with antibiotics might reduce their risk for this problem, she added.

I was off the air for nearly a week. I had to take down my antennas so that some tree guys could come in and take down a couple of elm trees that finally succumbed to Dutch Elm Disease.
Before I could even do that, I had to hack a path through the undergrowth to the tree supporting the far end of my 40m/30m fan dipole. I had been negligent about clearing the buckthorn and honeysuckle, and it took me about a half hour just to get enough of that out of the way to take down the antenna.
I also had to take down the 80m random wire. To do that, I had to get to the mulberry tree that was supporting the far end of the wire. This was a chore as in the past year or so, several thick strands of poison ivy had climbed up the trunk. It took a fair amount of time to carefully pry the vines from the trunk and carefully them.
It took the tree guys three days—Wednesday through Friday—to take down the two trees. On Saturday, I had other things to do, and besides it's been very hot here, so I wasn't motivated to do a lot of work outside. On Sunday, though, I decided to finish the job of clearing the buckthorn and honeysuckle and then get the antenna back in the air.
I seriously misjudged the amount of work. I worked from 9 am until noon cutting branches, digging out saplings, and bundling it all up for pickup. By the time noon rolled around, I still hadn't finished the bundling, but it was already quite warm, so I retreated inside and turned on the air conditioning. Just before dinner, I went back out and finished the bundling, but had other plans for the evening, so once again put off setting up the antenna.
Yesterday, I did go out and finish the job. This time, instead of running the 30m legs at an angle to the 40m legs, I decided to run them along the same plane. The antenna seems to like this orientation for some reason. To do this, I simply connected a 12-ft. piece of cord to the end of the 30m legs and tied the other end to the end insulators of the 40m legs. With this arrangment, the 30m legs droop down below the 40m wires.
I hooked it all up and everything seems to work just fine. I made four contacts last night, including two DX contacts: DL7UKA on 30m and PY3XAT on 40m.
I do have a couple of observations on how the antenna has weathered the elements:
- The splice in one of the 40m legs that I made three years ago seems to be holding up quite well. I expected it to fail by now.
- The fancy, UL-resistant dacron rope that I bought when I first put up the antenna is weathering quite well, but so is the cheap nylon rope I used on the 30m legs.
- This spring I noticed that the adapter in the PL-259 that plugs into the balun had somehow worked its way out and had slid a couple of feet down the coax. I thought that was kind of amusing. I screwed it back in before I hoisted the antenna up again.
So, I'm back on the air now, but it really is time to do some more antenna tinkering. I really need something better for 80m, and I do want to try 17m. I just have to get off my butt and do it.

Audio card choice
Have just done my first build - SN i5 2500 on Gigabyte H67 UD3H board and jsut want to do a little experimenting with an audio card - nothing flash but quality.
Have picked out two locally and wondered what others might think of these.
Auzentech X-Raider 7.1
ASUS Xonar DG there is a fair price difference nad the opinion locally is so divided I really don't know what to choose.
Wouldn't mind going to something that I can mix through a sound system, at the machine end.
|My System Specs
|22 Apr 2011
Windows 7, 64 bit Home SP1, Win 8.1.1 Pro 64 bit
I don't know anything about either. I have an HT Omega "Striker 7.1" installed. It does not have ASIO drivers but the ASIO4ALL will work with this card if you need ASIO for recording. I've used this, just testing, with my Sonar 8.5.3 Recording Program. I have other hardware for recording but I did it to test it.
The Striker 7.1 has the usual analog outputs and also has S/PDIF in and out. It will drive a P.A. or Karaoke system.
HT Omega The card is available at www.newegg.com
|My System Specs
|22 Apr 2011
ultimate 64 sp1
well the auzentech card is nearly three times the price of the budget asus, which is normally a good indicator of audio quality.
each card will use different electronic converters to playback and record audio. the more expensive card will (hopefully) have better circuitry, which will result in better sound quality (flatter frequency response) with less hiss/noise or distortion.
you pays your money, and you takes your choice.
if you're only using cheap speakers, you probably won't hear much difference, but if you're playing back through a hi-fi amp or expensive speakers, then i would go for the auzentech card - especially if you plan to do any recording.
i haven't tested any of these cards myself, so i'm only going by common sense.
saying all that, the asus does get very good reviews for the price, whereas the auzentech is more of a 'pro' card, with a wider range of in's and out's, including things like spdif digital i/o that can talk to other digital audio gear that you may have (or plan to get in the future)
|My System Specs
|22 Apr 2011
Hey thanks to both of you I have gone with the ASUS for the time being - it's only $35 and well I can shove it into a friends machine that is a bit older ansd try something more expensive.
The system I'm using is only a Logitec Z313 25 watts output quality is quite good but you now one s always looking for that little bit extra and I want to eventually get an audio app where I can mix the frequencies around a bit to suit my taste and experiment.
Any suggestions??

CCNA is one of the best industry accepted networking certificate in the world. Primarily CCNA validates the ability to setup, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot small to medium size switched and route networks, including to a WAN. To become CCNA certified, individual need earn a passing score on CCNA exam straightaway, or combined passing on both the ICND1 and ICND2 exams.
Most of IT companies constantly look for people who are competitive and have recognized certifications in to maintain their infrastructure . Therefore most IT companies expect for CCNA certifications to prove their skills in networking industry. This will actually save their amount of time in conducting tests along with other relevant background investigations. Also this will likely also save them from further spending time and cash developing their employees within the field. Companies also can prevent making unnecessary trouble within the current system because using a CCNA makes sure that they do know the basic steps of installation and troubleshooting . In today IT businesses, time is money. Any delays and hang backs denotes less productivity and earnings for your company.
Even though people need to become a CCNA, it cant be practices within day or two. With the huge CCNA syllabus some you can think the target would be impossible. Not only the huge syllabus, the test is quite complex as students needs to answer around 60 questions within 90 minutes which mean each question tight on than 90 seconds to reply to.
There is nothing to be afraid if you follow proper steps. First you must focus on the network domain knowledge. Really you can actually pass quality without the knowledge :) [yep remember that there are tricks].But exactly what is the point, in case you cant work but acquiring the certificate. Surely you will end up kicked off in most of the company on the globe. To study, Surely you should use good text study material. But I would recommend you to definitely follow through good video trainings because that could help that you understand nearly all of hard networking concepts.
Secondarily you need to practice for the exam. Trust me Networking Knowledge and passing the CCNA exam is very two different things. Even should you are expert on networking or having a decade of experience in Cisco products still you might fail the test. Thats is the reason exam tricks is there. Mmm what sort of tricks???????? Yeha there is only one trick, Practice the dump exams prior you facing the actual exam. It doesn't matter how many times you fail used tests but ensure you wouldn't loose 250$ at the end of the exam.
So now the real question is, How you find a very good CCNA practice exams. There are lot in the event you Google. But importantly be sure tests questions are updated very frequent. If you follow us further, we're renewing our contents with latest questions as we are experts in teaching CCNA for last six years.

|The investigation of the isospin dependence of multifragmentation reactions relies on precise reconstruction of the fragmenting source. The criteria used to assign free emitted neutrons, detected with the TAMU Neutron Ball, to the quasi-projectile source are investigated in the framework of two different simulation codes. Overall and source-specific detection efficiencies for multifragmentation events are found to be model independent. The equivalence of the two different methods used to assign experimentally detected charged particles and neutrons to the emitting source is shown. The method used experimentally to determine quasi-projectile emitted free neutron multiplicity is found to be reasonably accurate and sufficiently precise as to allow for the study of well-defined quasi-projectile sources.

Fletcher EQR and Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority Minister Gerry Brownlee have praised the pace of residential repairs in Christchurch.
They cited a "milestone" of 30,000 full home repairs at a value of about $3.8 billion. These are houses with less than $100,000 of damage.
When NBR ONLINE asked Fletcher PR communications officer Barry Akers how many property repairs remained to be completed, he said about 60,000, meaning the programme is about one-third of the way through.
But most repairs so far have been to relatively undamaged homes in the west of the city and contractors have begun to focus on the more damaged and difficult-to-repair properties.
Some of these require significant piling work and in some cases it is unclear how it will be achieved in TC3 properties where deep piling or new "floating foundations" are required.
For example, it will be difficult to move some houses to allow for piling repairs.
Fletchers remains committed to completing work by the end of 2015.

Blues legend breaks down Stoke's threat
Graeme Sharp believes stopping Stoke's two wide players will be key for Everton if they are to prevail against the Potters at Goodison Park on Sunday.
Tony Pulis' team place a real onus on both boxes and look to launch long balls, throw-ins and set-pieces into the opposition area whenever possible.
Key to that strategy are wingers Jermaine Pennant and Matthew Etherington, who look to swing crosses in at every opportunity.
And Sharp said: "Pennant has had a chequered career but is now playing regular games at Stoke while Etherington is a key player. The two of them like to cross the ball and they don't necessarily have to beat their man to do so. Stopping those two will go a long way to stopping Stoke."
Watch the video in the player above to hear the rest of Sharpy's Scouting Report as he breaks down the threat posed by the Potters.

The technical and creative consistency that makes Dishonored feel so special is the mark of a studio working at the height of its powers, and an achievement indeed considering that half the team is based in Lyon, France, and half in Austin, Texas. Dishonored is the game where many of Arkane's skills and ideas have really paid off: its firm belief in player choice, experience in finely honed melee combat and communicating a sense of firstperson physicality. We can't wait to see where the studio goes next.

The Port of Davisville welcomed its newest addition on Friday – a 126-foot-tall harbor crane. Gov. Lincoln Chafee joined Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse at the port as the new piece of equipment arrived.
Officials hope the crane will help bring more business to Quonset Point, where the port is located. The $4-million crane is capable of lifting up to 140 metric tons and was purchased using federal funds.
"Today is a good day for Quonset and the future of Rhode Island. This extraordinary new piece of equipment will help us create more jobs and bring more business to our state and to our residents," said Governor Chafee. "This will ensure that Quonset Business Park continues to be the economic engine of growth that we need, and help define the Park as one of Rhode Island's key resources."
In February, a should take a larger role in the East Coast shipping industry. In the past year, .
"Upgrading the pier and adding this versatile new crane will help leverage the federal investments we've made in Quonset by bringing short sea-shipping options to the port," said Senator Reed. "After decades of work, the Port of Davisville has become an important hub for the auto-import business. We want to build on that success. This crane can help us diversify, maximize our assets, and bring more business and economic growth to Rhode Island."

Those on the U.S.-spec 645Ci (ours come with more features loaded in than the European-spec version) still needing mention include a power-tilting glass Panorama moonroof with power-operated interior shade, the high-version iDrive controller with GPS navigation system and voice command, dual cupholders front and rear.
Not surprisingly, the options list is much shorter. If you're not satisfied with the base AM/FM/CD audio system with eight speakers, you can opt for the Premium Sound Package Logic 7 system with 13 speakers, Digital Sound Processing, Surround Sound simulation and a six-disc CD changer. Care to have the car do most of your thinking? Then you should consider having the Active Cruise Control and Park Distance Control with graphic display installed. For those living in colder climes, the Cold Weather Package offers three-stage heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and a ski bag. And, it's a given that I highly recommend the Sports package with sport seats, 19-in. wheels and performance tires, DDC, Active Steering and high-gloss Shadowline exterior trim, as it gives this already impressive luxury sports coupe an even sharper edge.
It's been 15 years since the first 6 Series was on the market. First introduced in 1976 (1977 in the U.S.), the 6er-especially the later versions-was, and still is, considered by many enthusiasts to be Munich's ultimate driving machine. When BMW announced the coupe's return, those same enthusiasts were worried that the new version would not live up to their beloved classic, that overly helpful technology and Chris Bangle's design philosophy would ruin everything. And, there will be several who will hold to this line of thought, no matter the convincing evidence to the contrary. (There's just no pleasing some people.) But for the open-minded, the new 645Ci will be everything its predecessor was and more. The classic coupe has returned. Welcome back.
Editor's note: As of this printing, U.S. and European pricing had yet to be announced.
