First things first, there is a new Tourist Trapped up on SFGate! Eve, Tim, Melissa, Christopher, Tara, and I went to see 'Superman' on the Presidio Main Post Lawn. Read all about it on the Culture Blog, per our usual, RIGHT HERE.
Today I took the bus into work. It was all normal Monday and I was sleepy and cranky. I plopped down in my cubicle and said to my co-worker Bill, "I wish I was at the U.S. Open."
I said this mainly because I had to post something about the U. S. Open on Facebook, and it was being held at the very same place I've spent 25 or so annual Saturdays in November at the Father-Daughter Dance.
Anyway, at 11 am my boss emerged from his office and said, "Who wants to go to the U.S. Open today?"
Bill nonchalantly replied, "Beth does."
Half an hour later, I was on a bus home feverishly texting Grey Cloud, "What do I wear to the U.S. Open?!?"
Today was Day One of U.S. Open practice, a mellow, moderately-attended first day that doesn't count. So it makes sense that a couple of passes trickled down to lowly old me. But I was delighted. I was thrilled that my boss likes me enough to give me an afternoon off, just for fun. That's always reassuring. And also, I didn't even have to go alone. My good friend is looking for a job right now, and isn't stuck behind a desk like everyone else.
"Lisa! Wanna go to the U. S. Open right now? I just got two passes."
How many people could say yes to this? Lisa could. And Lisa knows loads about sports. Even golf!
Her sweet mom, a member of the SFPD, dropped us off at the main gate, promising to meet us for dinner later at Westlake Joe's. It was 2pm on a Monday and I was pinching myself. I wanted to text my boss one last time and make sure he was sure I was allowed to be out in the sun, wearing my fanciest of sportswear, looking forward to a free dinner with someone who's got great stories.
But I couldn't text anyone. Cellphones are forbidden at the U.S. Open. I went without my phone for 8 hours. I felt naked. And I HATE being naked.
I was thinking, "Someone could be dead. My mother doesn't know where I am. Melissa BARELY does. What could happen?"
Nothing happened.
We walked up the hill, stopping to watch golfers, judge strangers, and eat snacks. We sat on bleachers and tanned ourselves while eavesdropping on people who said things like, "I don't know about you, but I am not about things or money. I learned that actually, and again this is just me, it's all about relationships."
We couldn't get into ANY of the myriad of special villages set up. Lakeside has been turned into a small city, full of corporate tents complete with white picket fences. It goes on forever and ever. They must have been working on this for months and months.
We couldn't even get into the Clubhouse.
Lisa was floored. "Your father is a member, right?"
"Yeah. I don't think that counts when ESPN has an entire studio at the 9th hole."
It didn't matter, and I didn't even try. We wandered around, having the most fun watching professional golfers practice at the driving range. Their last names were posted on little signs.
Hahn, Poulter, Harrington.
I have no idea who they are, but I could basically touch them.
Lisa and I spent way too much money in the "Merchandise Pavilion" which is bigger than the flagship Old Navy and looks like the inside of where they hold the Westminster Dog Show.
Ralph Lauren had TWO separate sections.
We spent 4 afternoon hours, walking around in the sun and checking out golf-boys.
I felt like I was getting away with murder. It was a lucky break, my getting to go to this.
Today was one of those days where you wake up and think you know what's going to happen. And then suddenly, you're walking across the 18th hole at the Olympic Club Golf Course at 6pm and asking a stranger, "Do you know where the Pot-O-Potty is? No, no, dum-dum. The good ones?"

Ex-Islander Rob Schremp scored the game winning goal to lead the visiting Atlanta Thrashers past the New York Islanders 2-1 Thursday night. The Islanders came out flat and managed only 15 shots on goal in an uninspired performance.
Andrew Ladd also scored for Atlanta while Chris Mason made 14 saves to earn the victory in a game in which he was rarely tested. John Tavares scored the only goal for the Islanders.
"We weren't ready to play hockey tonight," admitted Isles Coach Jack Capuano. "We just could never seem to get the legs underneath us that we needed…They took it to us pretty good."
The Thrashers dominated the first period, outshooting the Isles 12-3 but good goaltending by Al Montoya kept the Islanders close. In fact, it took the Islanders nearly seven minutes to register their first shot on goal against an Atlanta team ranked near the bottom of the league defensively.
"We weren't moving our feet," Capuano explained when asked about his team's lack of offense. "We weren't in constant motion, we lost a lot of one-on-one battles and we looked really tired tonight."
Ladd scored his team leading 27th goal of the year when he poked home a pass from Blake Wheeler at the 7:56 mark of the opening period. The Islanders defense left Ladd alone in the slot on the play.
The Isles played a bit better in the opening minutes of the second period and tied the game on Tavares' tap in of the rebound of a P.A. Parenteau shot. Travis Hamonic made a good play to keep the puck in the Atlanta zone and start the Isles attack.
But the Islanders couldn't sustain the momentum and were outshot in the second period 16-4. The Thrashers finally regained the lead on Schremp's power play goal with 6:04 left in the middle stanza. With Radek Martinek in the penalty box for holding, Schremp beat Montoya with a low wrist shot to make it 2-1 Atlanta. Schremp had been claimed off waivers by the Thrashers from the Islanders last month.
The Isles played a bit better in the third period but still couldn't put sustained pressure on Mason despite three power play chances including one in the final 33 seconds of the game.
"In the third period, we just simplified it a bit and just chipped more pucks in," Isles forward Matt Moulson explained. "In the third we started moving and it seemed we got more chances. It was too little, too late."
Tavares, who Capuano praised as one of the Islanders better players tonight, felt his team's frustration. "It just seemed like we were sluggish most of the game and couldn't really get much going," Tavares said. "We were behind the play most of the night. We tried to get things going but [we had] too many turnovers, mistakes and breakdowns that just didn't let us get in much rhythm and get in the game."
The Islanders will look for a better effort when they return to action Saturday night when they host the Philadelphia Flyers.
Prior to the game, the Isles announced that defenseman Mark Streit would miss the rest of the season due to the shoulder injury he suffered at the team's scrimmage in September.
P.A. Parenteau celebrated his 28th birthday tonight.
Trevor Gillies, who remains suspended, was the only Islander not in the lineup. Eric Boulton and Patrice Cormier were the Atlanta scratches.

Cold, Flu, & Cough Health Center
Swine Flu Pandemic FAQ
Why has WHO declared a pandemic now?
WHO's technical criteria for declaring a pandemic is that the infection must be spreading locally in at least two distinct regions of the world. That actually went on for some time before the official declaration.. But the WHO was worried that governments might overreact to a pandemic declaration.
They had good reason to think so. Early in the pandemic, some countries stopped importing pork and even slaughtered local pig herds -- even though the so-called swine flu is spread from person to person and cannot be spread by eating pork. And other nations established unreasonable travel restrictions or unnecessarily quarantined healthy people from countries where the flu was spreading.
These unnecessary actions had serious economic and social impacts. And since most public health experts feared that the next flu pandemic would be the vastly more deadly H5N1 bird flu, most pandemic preparedness plans contained steps far more drastic than steps needed to fight swine flu, which is only moderate in severity.
The six-stage WHO pandemic alert system does not take disease severity into account; it's based on the geographic spread of a virus.
The CDC does have a pandemic severity scale, which has five categories. The scale is based on the percentage of infected people who die -- the case-fatality ratio.
It's too soon to know the case-fatality ratio for H1N1 swine flu. But the CDC's best estimate so far is that it is 0.1%. That puts it on the borderline between Category 1 (the lowest category) and Category 2. The 1918 swine flu was a Category 5 pandemic, with a case-fatality rate of over 2%.
Even a Category 1 pandemic is serious. The CDC estimates that a pandemic with a 0.1% case-fatality ratio would result in some 90,000 U.S. deaths if no vaccine becomes available.
Has H1N1 swine flu become more dangerous?
No. So far, the H1N1 swine flu virus that is spreading around the globe is very similar to the swine flu viruses first seen in North America.
Experts say the disease is moderate in severity. That is because most cases -- and most hospitalizations -- have been in young people 5 to 24 years old. A small proportion of these young people have died.
Even though most people who get swine flu recover fully, these troubling deaths in otherwise healthy young people make experts hesitate to call the disease "mild."
Flu viruses do, of course, mutate. They may become less dangerous. But they may become more deadly, possibly picking up virulence factors from other flu bugs circulating at the same time. The nightmare scenario is that the H1N1 swine flu would combine with the H5N1 bird flu to create a fast-spreading, lethal virus. But the chance of this happening is small.
And pandemics come in waves. They tend to appear, wane, and reappear over two or three years. Sometimes there may be a mild first wave, followed by far more serious waves. That's what happened in 1918 and 1919 -- and that's what keeps public health officials awake at night.

The Daycare Assignment Problem
AbstractIn this paper we take the mechanism design approach to the problem of assigning children of different ages to daycares, motivated by the mechanism currently in place in Denmark. This problem is similar to the school choice problem, but has two distinguishing features. First, it is characterized by an overlapping generations structure. For example, children of different ages may be allocated to the same daycare, and the same child may be allocated to different daycares across time. Second, the daycares' priorities are history-dependent: a daycare gives priority to children currently enrolled in it, as is the case with the Danish system. We first study the concept of stability, and, to account for the dynamic nature of the problem, we propose a novel solution concept, which we call strong stability. With a suitable restriction on the priority orderings of schools, we show that strong stability and the weaker concept of static stability will coincide. We then extend the well known Gale-Shapley deferred acceptance algorithm for dynamic problems and show that it yields a matching that satisfies strong stability. It is not Pareto dominated by any other matching, and, if there is an efficient stable matching, it must be the Gale-Shapley one. However, contrary to static problems, it does not necessarily Pareto dominate all other strongly stable mechanisms. Most importantly, we show that the Gale-Shapley algorithm is not strategy-proof. In fact, one of our main results is a much stronger impossibility result: For the class of dynamic matching problems that we study, there are no algorithms that satisfy strategy-proofness and strong stability. Second, we show that the also well known Top Trading Cycles algorithm is neither Pareto efficient nor strategy-proof. We conclude by proposing a variation of the serial dictatorship, which is strategyproof and efficient.

JPMorgan's Best Ideas for 2013
Meena is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Just in time for the new year, chief U.S. equities strategist at JPMorgan, Tom Lee, appeared on CNBC on Dec. 31 to discuss the firm's outlook for 2013. Lee and his team are very bullish: he set a fairly high price target for the S&P 500 and recommended cyclical sectors such as basic materials. Interestingly, Lee likes a number of blue chip brands better than lesser known companies in the same industry. In the interview Lee and JPMorgan issued ten "best ideas for 2013;" here is our quick take on five of these top picks:
One of JPMorgan's best ideas for 2013 was Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and we agree that this stock is a good value. Apple trades at 12 times trailing earnings and while we aren't quite as optimistic as the analyst consensus- the forward P/E multiple is only 9, and the five-year PEG ratio is 0.5- we would expect moderate growth from Apple and the stock would easily be undervalued if that turned out to be the case. Apple was the most popular stock among hedge funds in the third quarter of the year, according to our database of 13F filings (see the full top ten rankings).
Fellow big bank Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) was another of JPMorgan's stock picks, after having nearly doubled in 2012. In terms of book value, Bank of America does look cheap at a P/B ratio of 0.6, but its earnings multiples don't look as good as those of other large banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) itself. Specifically, the forward P/E is 12. Bank of America was one of the most popular financial stocks among hedge funds last quarter, but we think there are considerably better buys in the sector including JPMorgan Chase and possibly Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo & Company (WFC) as well.
McDonald's Corporation (NYSE: MCD), another large cap blue chip brand and the most popular restaurant stock among hedge funds last quarter (find more of hedge funds' favorite restaurant stocks), carries a trailing P/E of 16 and that's good enough for Lee and his team to recommend buying. Naturally, McDonald's is a smart defensive pick with a beta of 0.3 and a dividend yield of 3.5%, so it's not that dependent on JPMorgan's bullishness on the overall market. We would be a bit concerned that its business was stagnant in the third quarter compared to the same period in 2011.
Another pick disclosed in the interview was The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA). Analysts expect that the aerospace and defense company will see declining earnings in 2013, possibly because of cuts in U.S. military spending. In fact, net income was already slipping last quarter, coming in 6% below its levels from Q3 2011 (though revenue was up). Renaissance Technologies, whose success since inception has made founder Jim Simons a billionaire, more than doubled its stake to 1.8 million shares by the end of September (check out Renaissance's stock picks). At earnings multiples in the teens we think there might be better buys in industrials.
Lee and his team also like Target Corporation (NYSE: TGT). At trailing and forward P/Es of 13 and 12, respectively, the retailer is quite cheap and it hasn't only staved off online competition, but actually had its earnings rise over 10% last quarter versus a year earlier. Note that Target, like McDonald's, has a limited connection to the broader economy and doesn't depend too much on a bull market. Billionaire Stanley Druckenmiller initiated a position of 1.2 million shares in Target between July and September. We like Target, but it's possible that other retail stocks are even better buys: Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) trades at a very small premium to Target, and then there are the dollar stores to consider.

Sting sales send crack seller to jailFebruary 15,2014WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — A Springfield man is heading to jail for selling crack cocaine.
William Aviles, 36, pleaded guilty Thursday in White River Junction criminal court to a felony count of cocaine sales. He was sentenced to two to four years in jail. The judge also recommended that Aviles participate in the state Department of Corrections' work camp program which could result in less time behind bars.
In May, police said a confidential informant told them about buying drugs from Aviles "for numerous years" and offered to cooperate.
Court records stated that on two occasions that month detectives watched as the informant went to Aviles' home. The informant met Aviles at his door and then they walked to Aviles' garage. Each time the informant purchased two grams of crack cocaine rocks at a price of $100 per gram, according to court records.
Aviles was arraigned on the felony sail of cocaine charge in June.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryBENNINGTON — A local man was killed in a one-car accident Saturday. Full StoryMONTPELIER Drivers who use hand-held cellphones and other electronic devices while driving... Full Story

Red Bull, Jaguar Among the First Advertisers on SoundCloud
SoundCloud, the free-for-all audio platform, has added advertising.
SoundCloud, the free-for-all audio platform, has added advertising.
On July 1, 1941, Bulova Watches aired the first-ever television commercial during the lead-in to a baseball game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies. The 10-second commercial depicted a black-and-white outline of the United States sitting stoically on a screen, with the Bulova Watch logo emblazoned on it. For the first seven seconds, the image stood in silence, like a classroom map eagerly imprinting a nation's outlines on a child's mind.
Although trips to the emergency room linked to energy drinks almost doubled between 2007 and 2011, little was known about how the highly caffeinated beverages affected the heart. Now, researchers say that healthy adults who downed the drinks, which are also high in the amino acid taurine, had increased heart contraction rates an hour later, according to a study presented Monday at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America.
Red Bull, the company that live streamed Felix Baumgartner's record-breaking space jump, is not surprisingly YouTube's biggest brand, with nearly 3 million subscribers. Behind the energy drink's lead are a slew of tech companies, including PlayStation, Rockstar Games, Apple, GoPro Camera and Rovio. See also: YouTube's 10 Most-Shared Ads in September Statista's chart, below, shows the 10 brands that have the most subscribers on YouTube.
What's it like to plummet to Earth when your starting point is 24 miles above its surface? What's it like to free fall at 833.9 mph — 140 mph faster than the speed of sound? When the Austrian daredevil Felix Baumgartner made his great leap from space last year, it was not only the record-breaking nature of the jump that inspired the Earth-bound. It was also, and more so, the video of the leap — the camera shot heard 'round the world.
For many, the shutdown of the federal government is no laughing matter. While some federal employees are losing income, recipients of the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children program are denied access to food for their children. Nevertheless, a few brands have viewed the episode as an excuse for humor -- or at least some real-time marketing that acknowledges what's going on in the real world.
Red Bull is one of the world's most successful brands at marketing itself on social media. Its posts, particularly on YouTube, tout its daredevil, extreme image and frequently become viral content hits with fans of action sports and crazy videos. But, as with many brands, Red Bull seemed to struggle with figuring out how to leverage Instagram's still relatively new video feature. Until Thursday, that is, when it scored a big win on the platform.
When advertising and entertainment collide, as it so often does, "advertainment" is born. Remember Felix Baumgartner's record-breaking space jump? That's advertainment from Red Bull. And the 18-minute Follow Phoenix documentary about rock band Phoenix? That's advertainment from Spotify for its (relatively new) Follow button. It's everywhere.
The top 500 brands on YouTube generate 442 million views per month, averaging 884,000 each, according to a report. Outrigger Media's analysis, which used its Open Slate analytics platform, also shows that brands are averaging lower subscriber counts on YouTube -- 35,000 -- compared to an average 200,000 Twitter followers. These are the top 10 most-viewed YouTube brand channels: 1. Google Chrome 25,063,920 2.
James O'Brien writes for The Content Strategist, a digital magazine by Contently, the leading technology company for brand publishing tools and talent. The button is five stops in, counting from the left on the homepage of RedBull.com. Along the smaller of two navigation bars, it's sandwiched between "Audio" and "Games." There it is, the fifth one: "JUST EPIC." In a sense, the channel embodies Red Bull's entire marketing approach.
Even Rube Goldberg himself would've likely been blown away by Red Bull's latest extreme stunt. Red Bull Kluge is an obstacle-course-like contraption run by some of the world's greatest athletes -- including Olympic hurdler Lolo Jones, skater Ryan Sheckler and Scottish trials cyclist Danny MacAskill. More than 25 tons of material was used to create Kluge -- derived from the German word "Klug," which means "clever." The entire stunt took more than 100 builders and 17 days to complete.
Slim Jim's not taking Red Bull's challenge lying down. Well, actually it sort of is, but the brand attempted to counter the Red Bull-sponsored Felix Baumgartner space jump over the weekend with this stunt on Conan. Team Coco billed the event as "four inches of pure excitement." See if you agree. The brand, known for its Judd Apatow-style marketing approach, joins Kit Kat and Lego, both of whom attempted to steal Baumgartner's limelight with varying degrees of success.
Red Bull's not the only brand to benefit from Felix Baumgartner-mania. Shortly before Baumgartner's stunt, Kit Kat sent one of its chocolate bars into space to give him a "fun break," according to JWT London, the agency behind the stunt. SEE ALSO: Watch the Red Bull Stratos Jump — This Time in LEGO The Kit Kat, which was attached to a weather balloon and launched from Cambridgeshire in the UK, reached 116,490 feet -- a bit short of Baumgartner's 127,000 feet.
Stuntman Felix Baumgartner gave 8 million viewers the chills Sunday when he jumped 128,00 feet from the edge of space. Now you can see the breathtaking view Baumgartner experienced, without ever lifting your feet off the ground. Austrian TV channel Servus -- owned by the space jump's sponsor, Red Bull -- has revealed some footage from Baumgartner's headcam. Before the jump, Baumgartner's last words were, "I wish you could see what I can see.
It's official: Felix Baumgartner's jump from the edge of space broke a record for the "live stream with the most concurrent views ever on YouTube," according to the video-sharing website. At peak, there were more than 8 million concurrent live streams, YouTube said in a Sunday blog post. The jump was broadcast on Red Bull's YouTube channel.
The social web had record-setting responses to the Red Bull Stratos space jump Sunday. To start with, more than 8 million viewers tuned into YouTube's live video stream of Felix Baumgartner's leap. A number of Stratos-related topics trended on Twitter, including #SpaceJump, #RedBull and #FelixBaumgartner. We'll keep you posted when we have numbers in from Twitter and other networks about the volume of comments on the supersonic space jump.
After Felix Baumgartner successfully jumped 127,900 feet from space and landed on his feet on Earth, a closing montage on Red Bull's live stream used Scottish band Twin Atlantic's song "Free" to end the spectacle. The alternative rock band's fans and curious YouTube viewers quickly gave the song a boost on Twitter, mentioning the band and song in a flurry of tweets.
Felix Baumgartner survived a space jump from 128,120 feet Sunday, breaking the record for the highest altitude skydive in history.
On top of the world record for longest freefall jump, Felix Baumgartner's Red Bull Stratos space jump has already broken an Internet record. More than 7.1 million people are tuning in to watch the live video of the jump on YouTube, setting an Internet video record. According to All Things D, the previous YouTube viewing record was set during the London Summer Olympic Games, when about 500,000 people concurrently tuned in to live video.
We can't keep our eyes off the live video of Felix Baumgartner's fall from space, but this LEGO creation is well worth a two-minute distraction. In this whimsical short, you can watch the Red Bull Stratos jump reenacted entirely by LEGO. You'll see the team of toy men and women watch from below as Baumgartner's helium balloon is inflated, as he floats up through the air and finally descends, and then jumps to a safe landing.
Watch Felix Baumgartner make his second attempt at the world-record breaking 22-mile supersonic freefall from the edge of space Sunday morning at 11:15 ET.
More than 1 million people tuned in to YouTube to watch Felix Baumgartner's aborted 22-mile jump from space on Tuesday. The plan was for Baumgartner to float up to that height in a pressurized capsule pulled by a weather balloon and then break the record for the world's longest jump. However, windy conditions prompted him to postpone the effort. Red Bull, the sponsor of the jump, has spent five years preparing for it.
Australian daredevil Felix Baumgartner is set to step out of his fiberglass space capsule, 120,000 feet above the Earth, and jump. But the biggest threat to Baumgartner is not his speed nor the hard crust of Earth -- it's space itself.

"I'm not sure Polish people understand what pro wrestling is. Their history is full of wars; they were always engaged in a battle with someone—so the very idea of fighting, even for sport, is a very serious deal to them. In general, as a nation, they are very serious. Americans can chill out a bit. We understand that this is just entertainment. It's still a sport, as everything that happens in the ring hurts quite a lot, but it's strictly for the enjoyment of the audience."

I managed to catch the right bus to get to OPA early instead of late, and Tom Harvey walked in a few moments after. He reminded me that there was a song of mine he wanted to harmonize on and we decided to go out in the courtyard and see if we could figure out which one it was. After figuring out it was Keep Telling Me, I wrote out the lyrics for him on two pages, it has a lot of words and I was writing in Sharpie.
Ana B had us unplugged, I guess there have been some requests to turn it down the past few weeks, and if there's no mic, there's nothing to turn down! :-) It did create a bit more of an intimate atmosphere, those who wanted to hear all came close instead of spreading out, and it ended up being a night of sing-alongs and duos and trying out new things. With that precedent set, I kicked off with Rain Song, encouraging everyone to join in, and Tom and I decided to go for it with Keep Telling Me as my last song. After a false start because the two pages I wrote out for him were in the wrong order, we had a great time singing it, and it will only get better in the next times we sing it and Tom has more time to figure out more guitar fills and such. Pretty cool.
I brought some of my felt whales to work on while listening to the other performers, and Ana B joined in with sewing together a few. I am making a bunch of them to offer as Kickstarter prizes, so it was nice to have the help!

Ultimately Powerful, Shockingly Effective Winning Tips on Soccer Betting that will drastically boost profit for every ordinary Soccer Punter
The Proven Winning System is guaranteed
to Generate instant piles of cash and a huge fortune of profit from soccer betting
You can win as much profit as 5 times of your stake DAILY
Are you aware that what you are about to read is going to make you a HUGE FORTUNE?
From the desk of:
Tyler Yuen
Rebelling Elite Master Punter
Dearest Fellow Punter,
Of course you want to confidently bet and earn profit from soccer betting. You've tried so many ways, from subscribing to a Tips & Picks website, carefully checking out a team's performance pattern, to thoroughly researching a team's history, etc... But finally you still ended up losing.
Does that sound familiar to you? How about this:
Your loss gets bigger and bigger, because you don't bet strategically
Your expected fortune abruptly disappears just because of some sudden stupid unexpected events during the game. But everyone knows that soccer always partners with surprises.
Your bank account still turns empty even after you spent days and nights studying, researching and forecasting the results
Even worse, your family saving is wiped out overnight, just because of the bet that you thought you would surely win.
Truth is: 95% of soccer punters LOSE
When you place your money on a stake, you are not only betting against your bad-luck, but also a pool of top successful punters. It is because your loss means their profit. Every single odd is carefully calculated and studied by top professional punters. As an amateur punter, it is deadly hard for you to make a living by betting.
But hey! You have to get back what you have lost. You have to put up yourself and fight against the so-called expert punters whose greed is bigger than the universe. Of course, without a proven betting strategy, everyone is destined to lose.

I currently charge a minimum of $200 for this product. When I asked my fellow punters whether $200.00 is the reasonable price for this package, they fell off their chairs.

After Todd Akin last year and Trent Franks this week, abortion is about the last topic many national Republicans want the political conversation to focus on.
Yet social conservatives in town this week for the Faith and Freedom Coalition Conference say the GOP would be making a grave mistake to ignore the hot-button culture war issue. To the contrary, they believe it's key to the party's fortunes in the 2014 midterms and beyond.
In the wake of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell's murder convictions, they are prodding GOP leaders to play offense at the national and state level.
(Also on POLITICO: House adds rape exception to abortion ban)
"This is a time for the pro-life movement like we have not had in decades," said former Rep. Marilyn Musgrave (R-Colo.), who works for the Susan B. Anthony List, which focuses on electing anti-abortion women to Congress. "We must seize the moment."
The Republican National Committee's 100-page "autopsy" report in March, packed with recommendations for how the party can recover after its 2012 losses, did not make reference to abortion. "When it comes to social issues," it stated, "the Party must in fact and deed be inclusive and welcoming. If we are not, we will limit our ability to attract young people and others, including many women, who agree with us on some but not all issues."
Still, some GOP politicians are responding to the call of social conservatives to take a more aggressive stand on abortion -- even as Democrats sound the alarm about a Republican "a war on women" and after Mitt Romney lost by double digits among female voters.
(Also on POLITICO: Paul Ryan explains GOP's 2012 loss)
Next week the House will debate a bill that would ban most abortions after 20 weeks, even though the measure could never clear the Senate or receive the support of President Barack Obama.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a likely presidential candidate, is poised to sign a law requiring women to undergo an ultrasound before being allowed to go through with abortions. Ohio's Republican legislature passed a budget last week aimed at making abortions more difficult.
(Also on POLITICO: Sanford snubbed at faith conference)
And the Virginia GOP last month nominated E.W. Jackson, who has compared Planned Parenthood to the Klu Klux Klan, for lieutenant governor.
With the economy improving and turnout lower in midterm elections, evangelicals in town for the three-day faith conference warned that the party must give them reasons to mobilize in 2014.
"If they want to just run on economic issues, you're not going to get the church people," said Bob West of Tallahassee, Fla., wearing a yellow tie with the words "Choose Life" on it. "That's the bottom line."
West said he knows social conservatives who stayed home last November because they did not believe Romney was one of them. He warned that incumbents like Florida Gov. Rick Scott need to demonstrate their pro-life bona fides to shore up support.
Gary Bauer, the 2000 presidential candidate, grumbled that the Republican political class sees abortion as a controversial issue but thinks nothing of holding the line against tax increases for billionaires.
"They've got it upside down," Bauer said. "The social issues we believe in are more popular than the Republican economic agenda."
Rep. Franks, the Arizona Republican who said at a committee hearing that the incidence of late-term abortions resulting from rape is "very low," rallied Thursday night at the Capitol with activists in town for the conference. He emailed a fundraising solicitation that said he will never back off being "100 percent unapologetically pro-life."
Franks authored the bill to be taken up Tuesday that would ban abortions after 20 weeks. On Friday, an exception was added for pregnancies resulting from rape and incest. And Franks will not, as had been planned, manage the bill when it goes to the floor.
The likely 2016 candidates who spoke to the conference for evangelicals touted their pro-life bona fides in speech after speech. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), for instance, said he introduced an act that would say life begins at conception. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) promised the House will continue looking into reports the Internal Revenue Service targeted pro-life groups.
The rank-and-file believe the steadfastness of the party's opposition to abortion is a reflection of its character.
"If they back away from that, they'll never win another election," said Regina Brown, the national prayer coordinator for the Faith and Freedom Coalition. "Our numbers are in the church."
Brown, 58, became a full-time activist after her mortgage brokerage business dried up in 2009. The Tampa resident was one of several hundred people who took buses to the Capitol Thursday afternoon to lobby their representatives. She and a group that included home-schooled students sat with J.R. Sanchez, Marco Rubio's director of outreach, for about half-an-hour.
The friendly session covered immigration, the IRS and gay marriage. A young man from the Miami area urged Rubio's office to push for more anti-abortion votes in the Senate. After they prayed together and as the visitors filed out, Sanchez encouraged them to stay engaged.
"You all understand where Marco comes from - his policies on life and traditional marriage," he said. "It's good to know we've got our evangelical friends watching our backs."
Several activists said they want congressional hearings featuring those who testified in the Gosnell trial, along with former clinic workers and abortion survivors.
"It will not happen with namby-pamby conservative politicians who are convinced that the only way to win an election is to sit on top of that really high gray fence," said Day Gardner, president of the National Black Pro-Life Union. "If you're going to run for office, especially for House or Senate, don't bother running if you're going to leave your backbone in your state."
The pervasive belief among speakers and attendees at the conference is that not talking about social issues hurts more than the occasional gaffes that get such intense media attention.
"The problem connecting with young people was not social issues," said radio host Michael Medved. "It was economic issues."
The CEO of Concerned Women for America, Penny Nance, touted success at the local level. She said 24 states passed 92 laws restricting abortion in 2011, and 19 laws passed in 2012. Four states now have just one abortion clinic.
"The politicians are often bullied into silence and afraid to speak on this," she said. "Actually on the issue of abortion, we are winning ... We are advancing."
Mike Huckabee took heat last summer for urging religious leaders to stand behind Akin after the national party abandoned him when he said that pregnancies after "legitimate" rapes are rare. But Huckabee is unapologetic about abortion being a litmus test.
"For me, that's non-negotiable," the former Arkansas governor said. "I know that I'm not going to vote for somebody that doesn't have respect for the sanctity of every single human life."
Dick Morris, the controversial political consultant, warned at the conference that single women are turned off "massively" by the GOP's position on abortion. But then he reassured his audience that the problem is "emphasis," not policy.
"There is an answer to it, and it does not involve changing our position on abortion one iota," he said. "What we need to say to the single white women in America is, 'We want to repeal Roe vs. Wade but we know in 40 years it has not been overturned and with Obama appointing the judges it's not likely to be. So we want to lead a coalition to reduce the number of abortions in the United States.'"

Feature request to fix iOS and Website feature inconsistency when adding tasks
Dear TD team
(this message is copied here from a raised ticket.)
In the view "Today", that is when filtering my tasks for Today in TD, the following inconsistency can be observed currently:
1. When adding a new task with iOS TD, the system automatically sets the new task's date to today's date. (I find this is a great feature as it saves a lot of time when adding lots of tasks to the days task list)
2. when adding a new task with the Website TD, the system DOES NOT automatically set the new task's date to today's date. (this is frustrating as I can then forget the task is on my list for Today, or waste time changing the TD Sorting to find my task so I can manually set the date.
Solution suggestion: enhance the Website TD so that the system automatically adds the current date to newly added tasks when the filter is Today. ALSO, the system should implement the same logic when the filter is set to Tomorrow (as currently in iOS).
PS as an ex- software developer, I would rate this as a trivial change that even a junior developer should be able to complete within half a day.
Hope this helps.

Hi there
I've searched the forum but it seems that I am the first to request this (although I may be wrong here).
I want to be a be able to create a Saved Search of recently completed tasks so that I can review what I have been working on and report back to the Mrs (to get some brownie points ;-))
I tried to achieve this by creating a Saved Search and specifying to select tasks that were Completed After [7 days in the past].
Currently, you need to manually edit the Saved Search each time you want to run it, which is takes extra time.
Also, it would be good to access Saved Searches on the iPhone app, although I understand this is already a priority feature (from another thread).

From Topic: Search not available in Slim and iPhone App
Glad to hear the Search feature for iPhone app is a high priority. This would be so useful. (I was going to post a feature request but found this thread...)

I would also find a rich text facility immensely useful.

FEATURE REQUEST: be able to review goals on iPhone having >6 words without system truncating the end.
I want to be able to be able to view my goals often (and to review my top 3 short term goals DAILY) on my iPhone whilst I am commuting so that I can keep these in mind.
(Identifying top 3 short term goals and reviewing them daily is a part of Anthony Robbins' Goal Setting process.)
The trouble is that currently the iPhone app will only show about 6 words and then hide any remaining text in the goal, so it is not possible to read anything but short goals.
There is a sort of very nasty workaround which involves editing the goal and then dragging the insertion beam left and right along the text, but this is effectively unusable as a) it so cumbersome and b) you still cannot see the entire goal in one go, instead needing to scroll left and right.
Suggestion: why can't the screen wrap the goal text rather than truncating it?

Not all tasks are created equal... or at least not all tasks want to start off the same!
I'd like to be able to create a task from a photo. The idea is to be able to take a photo of some written notes, news article or other picture containing contextual information and have Toodledo automatically attach this picture as an attachment to the task.
This would be very valuable for me, as I often have contextual information that I'd like to attach to a task.
Currently, it takes a great deal of time and effort to be able to get a picture/document attached to a task via Toodledo on the web.
Acceptance criteria
- The system MUST be able to accept one photo from the iPhone's photo roll to be able to create a new task from
- The system SHOULD be able to accept TWO or more photos from the iPhone's photo roll to be able to create a new task from
- The system SHOULD be able to create tasks from photos even when the phone does not have internet connection (and later sync/update server when have a connection)
- The system SHOULD be able to view and edit tasks with photos even when the phone does not have internet connection
- The system MUST be fast for the user to operate: given the photo is already on the iPhone's camera roll and that the Toodledo app is already loaded on the iPhone, it must be possible to create a 'bare-bones' task (e.g. with a short task name of "T") from a photo within 20 secs.
- The user MUST have a Pro Plus account (so as to be able to store attachements)

Feature request - ability to easily attach/take photo to a Toodledo task on the iPhone Toodledo app.
For those of us with a Pro Plus account, enabling the storage of attachments, this would be a very useful feature indeed.
I often have conversations with people that result in me taking a bunch of written notes (often with sketches) that I need to action. Rather than having to type them up it would save me a LOT of time to be able to just use iPhone to take a picture that can easily be associated with a Toodledo task.
A good example of an implementation of something like this is Evernote (the IPhone app).
I think that this feature would also benefit Toodledo (as well as the customer) as it would be another incentive to upgrade to the Pro Plus account.

From Topic: Viewing files on the iPhone
Hi folks
Just to say that I also would value being able to view attachments on the iPhone app.
Toodledo: I think that, in the meantime, the iPhone app should at least be updated to indicate whether or not attachments exist on a task. This should be a trivial 'agile' feature to develop - just a simple read only flag.
All the best

Aaaah - I see!
Thanks Peter for your help here as I can see what's happening now.
So, when the "Subtasks" Filter setting is "In-line" then the total task count will include all subtasks (as the task list will be flattened).
However, when the "Subtasks" Filter setting is "Nested" then only parent level tasks are counted.
I still would prefer for the Application Badge's task count to always show the total number of starred tasks, including subtasks *irrespective* of what filter I may have happened to have previously used.
Perhaps a new config option could be used to determine how the Application Badge's task count works: a) use the current "Subtasks" Filter setting [as now], b) show only parent task count, or c) show total number of parent and sub-task count
I welcome your thoughts on this Peter.

Hi there
Would it be possible to be able to have email alerts sent when someone posts on a forum thread that is in the Watchlist?
Posted: Jul 29, 2010
Posted by PeterW:
Try setting subtasks as flattened on the iPhone and see if the task count changes.
Er, I'm not sure how to do that on iPhone app. I've looked at the config settings but can't see how to do it. I've tried "List Dividers" as "On" (although not really sure what this option does) but that makes no difference to the Application Badge's task count....

Thanks, thanks, thanks for providing the "Manually Sorting Subtasks" feature (www.toodledo.com/forums/1/3905/0/manual-sorting-of-subtasks.html).
However, it is not possible to change the sort order of subtasks on the iPhone app. I tend to use my "dead time" during the commute time for GTD and Toodledo-ing, so it would really be useful to be able to do change the sort order of subtasks on the iPhone app.
Please could you implement this?
Look at the way the Safari iPhone application handles the ordering of bookmark items. That would be perfect.
Best regards
Posted: Jul 29, 2010
Dooh! Ignore my last post, I should have read through the thread properly. Thanks Toodledo!
Posted by Toodledo:
If you use subtasks, you can manually sort your subtasks via drag and drop.
Posted: Jul 29, 2010
Hi all
Thanks for the feedback Peter. I have done some tests and found the following:
1. You're right: completed tasks ARE already filtered from the Application Badge's task count. My bad. However...
2. The task count on the Application Badge is misleading (IMHO) as it counts only parent tasks. E.g. If I have a parent task (not starred) with 8 subtasks where 4 subtasks are starred, then the Application Badge will only count one starred task.
I think that the Application Badge "starred count" should count every parent task and subtask as a individual task.
Best regards

Thanks for putting on your todo list Toodledo Admin.
Posted: Jul 28, 2010
Hi there
I have configured my iPhone's "Application Badge" to be "Starred Tasks" but the count number is much larger than I am expecting (as it seems to include completed tasks) and so is misleading and not useful (IMHO).
I do not want my task counts to include completed tasks; I just want to know the count of outstanding tasks.
I found the "Dual List Counts" option in General Settings, but a) this doesn't affect the Application Badge and b) I don't want dual count on application badge anyway (this might have been a workaround solution).
Suggestion: can you provide a mechanism on iPhone app to be able to only show non-completed tasks in all List Counts including the Application Badge?
Many thanks!

I would also like to add my support for the manual sorting feature.
I completely agree with rcross_us, that "...if I had only one feature request to use over the next 5 years this would be it!"
I HAVE TO manage the order of subtasks, and I want to do it QUICKLY.
There are different workarounds folks are using for manual sorting (my workaround tends to be setting a dummy Due Date).
However, workarounds TAKE TIME to micro-manage and can corrupt the meaning of the metadata (e.g. as in my case I have lots of due dates that are complete nonsense, mixed up with REAL due dates, consequently making the use of due dates confusing and belittling the value of due dates).
I use Toodledo for home task management and Achieve Planner (AP) for work planning.
AP is really great for QUICKLY being able to manage and manually reorder tasks (even with keyboard shortcut, e.g. Ctrl+Alt+Shift UP/DOWN (and LEFT/RIGHT for changing the task's nesting level, but that's a bit off topic)).
And QUICKLY is what I need.
The big problem with AP is that it does not sync to iPhone/handheld, and so is not good for remote access when on the move, in meetings, on the tube etc. (which is where Toodledo is absolutely superb, and hats off to them for that!).
So, perhaps looking at AP may inspire a solution to this problem in Toodledo?
Thanks all (and sorry for the various CAPITALISATIONS, I just want to emphasis key points and am honestly not trying to be obnoxious :>)

Hi there
I often have tasks with subtasks in Toodledo and often want to use another level of subtask, e.g.
Task 1
sub task 1.1
sub sub task 1.1.1
sub sub task 1.1.2
sub task 1.2
sub task 1.3
However, Toodledo limits the subtask hierarchy to one level (e.g. 1.1)
I understand that it can be counterproduct to plan in too much detail (e.g. sub task 18.104.22.168.1.1.1. etc) but I really want to be able to make a sub task down to 3 levels (e.g. 1.1.1.)
Thanks for listening

Just as good fences make for good neighbors, boundaries between work and home life make for greater productivity and less stress. Yet in our 24/7 always-on-call-world, clear boundaries between work and home life can be hard to erect. For moms working part-time, or at home, the challenge is tougher still: how to maintain a productive, professional work environment when the sippy cup set demands attention.
The Ultimate Juggle
In a recent New Yorker article comedienne Tina Fey calls the topic of working motherhood "a tap dance recital in a minefield." Fey takes comedic liberties with her description of working motherhood but she's spot on about the difficult dance.
Set work hours. By establishing set work hours (either the days you head into the office or at home hours of 9 to 3pm or noon to 5pm, whatever works) you can clearly signal to your family when you are not accessible. Setting up a framework of regular work hours also allows you to carve out protected family time, preventing the problem of "work creep," the phenomenon where work starts creeping into all hours of the day.
Establish a dedicated workspace. Try to find a quiet area of the home for your office (preferably with a door) and let kids know that a closed door means do-not-disturb. Establish a hands-off policy for work supplies in this area to prevent computer paper from becoming art projects or the lap top from being commandeered by tweens.
Nanny 911: Have a stable of babysitting options on speed-dial. Working from home doesn't mean you can work while the kids scamper about or while you drive carpool. School-aged children require babysitting after 3pm and the sippy cup set needs constant supervision; be sure to outsource that task to paid help so you can concentrate on work.
Need more ideas for making the juggle work? We've assembled some useful resources for working parents. Think of it as your toolkit for sanity.
Finally, here are some real life case stories of moms making part-time jobs work for them. Good Housekeeping has assembled some inspirational stores in Make Full Time Money Working Part-Time. Tips include, letting personal calls go to voicemail during work hours and not mixing home activities during work hours: i.e. keep play dates and chores for non-office hours.
Do you have any great tools that help balance the demands of work and parenting? Share your thoughts here and on the Pendaflex Facebook page.

Xavier and UC rivals come together for Crosstown Helpout
Presidents of both universities to kick off event with crowd of 900 volunteers
01/09/04Xavier and the University of Cincinnati may be opponents on the basketball court, but both schools are cooperating rather than competing to give back to the community during the seventh annual Crosstown Helpout on Saturday, Jan. 24. Xavier President Michael J. Graham, S.J., and UC President Nancy L. Zimpher both are helping to kick off the event as volunteers from both schools gather at UC's Fifth Third Arena at 8:00 a.m.
Approximately 900 volunteers, including students, alumni and friends of both universities, are expected. From the arena, volunteers are splitting up into teams and heading to 37 schools and agencies in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas to work on various projects. The projects include painting and plastering walls, waxing floors, cleaning windows, picking up trash, weatherproofing buildings and building bookshelves. The teams are working from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Among the sites the teams are visiting are Corryville Catholic School, Bond Hill Academy, Our Daily Bread, East End Community Heritage School and the Welcome House of Northern Kentucky.
"Xavier is pleased to support the Crosstown Helpout. As defined as our allegiances become on Feb. 3, the Crosstown Helpout shows how fans can unite to support our city," says Thad Matta, Xavier head men's basketball coach.
Again this year a prize patrol is visiting all the sites, and volunteers are eligible to win an assortment of prizes, including tickets to the Crosstown Shootout on Feb. 3 at the Cintas Center.
"The Crosstown Helpout is a wonderful event that carries the spirit of the Crosstown Shootout into the community, providing needed assistance to many area schools and agencies. It's a great opportunity for Bearcat and Musketeer fans to come together for a worthwhile cause," says Bob Huggins, UC head men's basketball coach.
This year's event is sponsored by Xavier's national alumni association, UC's alumni association, The Home Depot, Glidden Paint, Cincinnati Bell Wireless, Aramark, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Panera, Chiquita, LaRosa's, Home City Ice and Skyline Chili.
For more information, contact Mary Ann Schomaker at Xavier at 513 745-3081 or Phillip Lanham at UC at 513 556-4405, or visit www.crosstownhelpout.com.

Salt Lake City police said a man was in critical condition after being stabbed during an altercation at a downtown Burger King restaurant Wednesday morning.
The incident occurred just before 7:30 a.m. at the restaurant, near 400 South and 200 East. The suspect, who was arrested by police soon thereafter in the area of the eatery, stabbed the victim repeatedly, including in the neck, and fled on foot, Salt Lake City police Detective Rick Wall said.
The victim, a 25-year-old man, was taken to a hospital and was immediately taken into surgery. He remained in critical condition Wednesday afternoon, Wall said.
Wall said the suspect, a 28-year-old man, was booked into Salt Lake County jail on suspicion of attempted homicide.

Professor's book inspires teenager - Around the Arch
December 2009 Issue
William Kamkwamba with his handmade windmill. Special photo A science textbook written by UGA education professor Mary M. Atwater is being heralded as the inspiration and guide for a 14-year-old African boy's quest to build a windmill that provided electricity to his family and village. Eight years ago, William Kamkwamba's native Malawi suffered through one of its worst droughts. Thousands died. Others were surviving on one meal a day. William dropped out of school when his family couldn't pay the tuition but spent his days at the library, where he found a book with photographs of windmills. That book, Using Energy, was Atwater's 8th grade science textbook, first published in 1993. It was one of dozens donated to his village in Malawi.
Inspired by the diagrams in the book and pictures of windmills, William decided he would bring electricity to his family's home, a luxury only 2 percent of Malawians are able to afford.
Using Atwater's book, he built a …

The Concrete Producer and Concrete Construction magazines recently received a letter requesting information on aged concrete mixers from the Gorham Historical Society.
Universal concrete mixer by Equipment Corp of America
Seeing articles about old cement trucks on your website makes me think that you might enjoy a photo and some info about a 1920's era concrete mixer recently resurrected after 60 years of storage in a barn in Gorham, N.H.
Roger Cloutier got it limbered up and running! He had the Novo 4 HP(?) hit and mix engine going and the drum turning, while it was strapped on his trailer, pulled by an old John Deere tractor, on the 4th of July.
It was owned by the Libby Sawmill. Old timers remember using the beast, estimated to weigh around 2,800 pounds.
Reuben Rajala, President, Gorham (NH) Historical Society
