Faithfulness in the performance of small duties gives us strength to adhere to difficult determinations that life will someday force us to make.
Paramahansa Yogananda
I think that when you look at the great politicians, the two greatest in my view were George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, they certainly had character traits. You also know Abraham Lincoln overcame severe depression problems that he had when he was younger, which gave him the strength and the character later on.
John McCain
Placing one foot in front of the other, I've climbed to higher lengths. Reaching beyond my own limitations, to show my inner strength. No obstacle too hard, for this warrior to overcome. I'm just a man on a mission, to prove my disability hasn't won.
Robert M. Hensel
Solitude is strength; to depend on the presence of the crowd is weakness. The man who needs a mob to nerve him is much more alone than he imagines.
Paul Brunton
The rolling fictions grow in strength and size, Each author adding to the former lies.
Jonathan Swift
Rumor, than which no evil flies more swiftly. She flourishes as she flies, gains strength by mere motion. Small at first and in fear, she soon rises to heaven, Walks upon land and hides her head in the clouds.
Modesty is to merit, as shades to figures in a picture, giving it strength and beauty
Jean de la Bruyere
The proximity of an army causes prices to go up; and high prices cause people's substance to be drained away. When their substance is drained away, they will be afflicted by heavy exactions. With this loss of substance and exhaustion of strength, the homes of the people will be stripped bare, and their incomes dissipated.
Sun Tzu
Our government sprang from and was made for the people -- not the people for the government. To them it owes an allegiance; from them it must derive its courage, strength, and wisdom
Andrew Johnson
Dwell not upon thy weariness, thy strength shall be according to the measure of thy desire.
Arab Proverb
The whole strength of England lies in the fact that the enormous majority of the English people are snobs.
George Bernard Shaw
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Grudge no expense -- yield to no opposition -- forget fatigue -- till, by the strength of prayer and sacrifice, the spirit of love shall have overcome . . .
Maria Weston Chapman
It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more 'manhood' to abide by thought-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles and an immature mind.
Alex Karras
When I would recreate myself, I seek the darkest wood, the thickest and most interminable, and to the citizen, most dismal swamp. I enter a swamp as a sacred place - a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength, the marrow of Nature.
Henry David Thoreau
Few things are impossible to diligence and skill ... Great works are performed, not by strength, but perseverance.
Samuel Johnson
Oh soul, you worry too much. You have seen your own strength. You have seen your own beauty. You have seen your golden wings. Of anything less, why do you worry? You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle will never know.
Charles Kingsley
I admire President Chavez for his strength to resist the United States. Instead, Bush is waging a war of terrorism against the world.

Illinois man wins hole-in-one lawsuit
EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. (AP) -- A southwestern Illinois meat cutter who sued after a prize for his hole in one during a charity golf tournament wasn't paid out as promised has carded a legal victory.
The (Alton) Telegraph reports that a Madison County judge has awarded Donald Beiermann of Godfrey an $11,000 judgment against the Alton church that sponsored the tournament and the Godfrey course that hosted it.
Beiermann scored the ace on the 17th hole, where a sign promised such a feat would win an $11,000 trip for four to California's Pebble Beach Golf Course.
A specialty insurer refused to pay, arguing the contract provided that the hole in one must be on a hole at least 165 yards long. Biermann's ace, witnessed by three companions, was on a hole 149 yards long.

Worcester Senior Center Presentation on Diabetes
Here is a video I thought you would enjoy about a presentation I did at the Worcester Senior Center. I do a live exam on a patient.
Dr. Pelto
How am I supposed to move when I am not supposed to walk?
This seems kind of like a funny question because how are you supposed to get around when you cannot walk is a typical question I get from a lot of patients. There are a few reasons why I ask my patients not to walk, or rather not to put pressure on their foot. If you just had foot surgery, you should not be putting pressure on your foot and you should not be having your foot down because the more you have your foot down and pressure on it, the greater swelling you are going to have, the greater pain you are going to have, and as well, the greater risk of having a complication to the surgery, at least until the bone is healed or the skin is healed, depending on the type of surgery. But as well, you could need to stay off of your foot because you have a sore on your foot. This is typically from someone who has diabetes or a foot ulcer on the bottom of their foot or on any part of their foot and I ask people to stay off of their foot and the way you stay off of it with this is to use either a knee walker. One company that makes them is a company called Drive and they actually have a cup holder that you can put a soda in there if you want. Probably should not be having soda though! Another option is using something called a Freedom Leg. This is actually something that you put on your thigh and on your leg and it allows you to walk, but it transfers all of the pressure, instead of to your foot, it transfers it to your leg so your foot is not actually put on the ground. It works very effective. If you still need to get around and are unable to do any of these knee walkers or the Freedom Leg, an okay option is to try to use crutches, a cane, or a special walking boot that can take the pressure off of the area. All of those other options are not optimal, but they work okay.
If you want to see what you can expect before, during and after surgery click
What is the proper way to trim your nails?
There are basically three steps to trim your toenails properly. The first thing you need to do is get the proper instruments. Most people have the typical nail nippers that push down between your fingers and it cuts the toenails. These are okay for normal-looking, normal-thickness nails, but if you have a thicker nail with a nail fungus, you should get the heavy duty nail trimmers that are used kind of like scissors. Be careful, especially if you have diabetes or any other conditions, or you have a lack of sensation or lack of blood flow. When you are trimming the nails, try to trim them straight across. I do not recommend trimming into the edges if you are trimming them on your own. A lot of the reason I see people with ingrown toenails is because they are constantly having to trim out the edges. If you are trying to trim out the edges, or if you feel like you have to, it is usually because you have an ingrown toenail and you should see a podiatrist. The third thing is if you are trimming your toenails and you find that it is painful on the edge, if you cannot get out the edge, if it looks red, infected, or swollen, you should probably see a podiatrist and get some help. So, those are the three tips on how to trim your own toenails.
If you want to learn more about how to treat ingrown toenails click
Have you tried Kerasal on your nails?
Kerasal is a type of a urea cream that can be used on toenails. Many people have tried different types of home remedies, such as tea tree oil or Vicks VapoRub. One other type of treatment is a urea cream that can be bought over the counter, called Kerasal, or even in the doctor's office something called Calicylic cream. These are 20 to 30% urea-based creams and they can be used on toenails to reduce the thickness and have them make them easier for you to trim. They do not always clear up the fungus (actually, they very rarely clear up the fungus), but they can make them a little more manageable and easier for you to trim. These types of creams can also be used on calluses on the bottom of the foot or on areas that become painful because of callusing.
To learn about other ways to help nail fungus click
Be careful using acid on your warts!
Acid treatment is one of the treatments that causes the most problems we see in the office. Many people try to treat their calluses and their warts with acid and they either get too strong of an acid, or they put it on too long and this can cause a sore on the bottom of the foot. This sore is typically called an ulcer and it is caused by having too much acid for a prolonged period of time. Some of the more common ones that you may find over the counter are Compound W or Salinocaine. These can be both purchased and tried over the counter. There are also some over-the-counter remedies for both ingrown toenails and calluses that if you look at the components, they have a component of something called salicylic acid. All of these are acids and they can injure the skin. The problem is they do not know when to stop and so if you keep putting it on, it can break down the top of the skin, which is called the epidermis, and go down into the dermis, which is the area that is the beefy, red area of the skin. I had one patient, he was a man and he thought he had a wart on his heel and he used an acid for many weeks and he came in with a very large wound on his heel and he could not even walk. He was on crutches. We did not need to do much treatment to heal it, all we had to do was have him stop using the acid and it healed up on its own. You can imagine for a healthy young man, that is easy, but if someone, for example, has poor blood flow or poor feeling in their feet, it can create a big problem for them.
To learn more about warts click
How many laser treatments do I need?
Many patients come into the office because they want to know how to treat their toenail fungus. I typically give them three options for treatment. We can use a topical medication, which I typically use Formula 3 and it offers about 20 to 30% success rate. Another type of treatment is an oral pill called Lamisil, but many people do not want to take it because they are concerned about the complications with the liver and so they choose to do laser treatments for the toenail fungus. These consist of typically three treatments. They are spaced out at one month, three months, and then as needed. I find that typically three treatments are enough, but occasionally we have to do a fourth or a fifth. I find both the oral pills and, as well, the laser treatment to be about 80% effective for treating toenail fungus.
If you are interested in learning more about getting toenail treatment for nail fungus, you can visit our office or even research online about laser treatment for toenail fungus. Here are some resources I recommend -

Worcester shoe stores
Many of my patients in the area of Worcester ask what type of shoe stores we recommend as podiatrists. On my blog,
, there is a list of shoe stores that I typically recommend and I am going to go over a few of them with you.
First of all, I recommend a shoe store called Sneakerama. Sneakerama is a place where you can buy sneakers and athletic shoes and they do a very good job, especially finding shoes that can fit orthotics in them.
The next shoe store is Panza Shoes. It is located in Framingham. They have shoes that are more for professional females and males for hard-to-fit feet. If you go to their website prior to seeing them, www.PanzaShoe.com, you can get a coupon to get a discount on your first pair of shoes.
Evans on the Commons is located in Townsend, Massachusetts. They have a good selection of shoes, as well as the Walking Company at the Solomon Pond Mall, they have a good selection of shoes, and then there are also different types of shoes that can be found online and you can find a complete list on the website.
If you have a need for diabetic shoes though, we can actually offer them through our office to help for people who have high-risk feet of developing sores, wounds, or other types of complications.

Here we have this tremendous success in the EFS oil well production but, the gas at the pumps remain high. Allowing oil companies to drill indiscriminantly or until the cows come home; will not result in lower gasolne prices. Why? This is a country of greed. Just as the Middle East nations have done with their cartel(s); American production will follow the same suit. People in the business will just keep getting richer and it will not make one iota difference on the consumer. But, they sure play, sing and dance a lovely, "anti-foreign-oil-dependency," song. The lyrics are so captivating we yell out, "drill baby drill...!" Sad and funny at the same time.

Weakness and volatility in the municipal bond market caused the company to cut the offering to a projected $323.6 million from an expected $600 million, WPPSS assistant treasurer Stephen Buck said.
Proceeds from the offering will help the utility cover its debts, which run nearly $500 million a year. The issue is scheduled to be priced today by a Goldman, Sachs & Co. group.

The absolute, undeniable right thing
As the Left casts about for something – anything – to hammer Gov. Sean Parnell with as the election season gets under way, the state's challenging the Minto Tribal Court's jurisdiction in a parental rights case involving Edward Parks, convicted in the brutal beating of his girlfriend and mother of his children, must seem a tempting target.
Parks, by the recent record, anyway, is not a nice guy and certainly is not a poster boy for state intervention in his case. But the issues involved have little to nothing to do with him as a person.
The question being taken before the Alaska Supreme Court is whether a tribal court has jurisdiction over him and whether he was denied his civil rights when a tribal court he had nothing to do with denied his attorney the chance to speak in his behalf in the parental rights case. The court's ruling placed his daughter in the care of her mother's relatives.
The Left argues the court was right because Parks is not a nice man; that he had a history of beating and injuring his wife; that he should not even have been a parent. We wonder if that reasoning – that jurisdictional overreach and denial of civil rights based on lousy personal attributes – would be hailed if it were applied in a state or federal court simply because the defendant was not somebody you would take home to meet your family. The American Civil Liberties Union, en masse, would have a stroke.
As the Left whines and drags its hair shirt out of the closet, let us keep in mind that the same evil state trying to determine whether an Alaska citizen's rights were violated is the same evil state that hauled Parks into court in the first place.
Some, the Anchorage Daily News among them, argues that is all is very complicated; that the state simply is out to fight tribal authority; that justice was done and a child saved; that the state should "respect" the tribal court's decision. Mind you, the questionable decision was reached, we are forced to note, in possible violation of the Constitution and the law, but they would overlook those facts. The ends, as always with the Left, justify the means.
We are left to wonder how the state's detractors in this instance would feel if, in a case lodged against them, their constitutional rights were overlooked and the law ignored. Then, you would really hear whining.
Despite what you will hear to the contrary from the usual suspects, the state of Alaska did the right thing – perhaps even more so because it was so very unpalatable.
2 Responses to The absolute, undeniable right thing
Getting rid of Parnell has nothing to do with the 'left'. I'm way right of center, and Parnell is close behind Obama as far as I'm concerned, as a pretend intelligent person who needs to be flushed, just like Obama. Parnell isn't so much of a con man as Obama, but he is bought and paid for by oil. Not someone we need in any government position in Alaska, let alone Governor.
My choice for Governor would be our current Anchorage Mayor, Mr. Sullivan. He isn't wearing blinders with any labels on them, and would be the best person to formulate a plan for Alaska to move forward. He will be willing to take suggestions from all corners, which will benefit Alaskans generally.
This is the reason I believe Mayor Sullivan should be the Republican candidate for Governor, rather than Parnell. Think about it.

We booked a double room with private bathroom even if there were no reviews on the hostel at that time.The bathroom was so tiny that the shower head was almost above the toilet. We checked other rooms but they were all the same "design" and size. When entering the room after few hours (we went for a walk) we found it smelly,like humidity and dust. The room was gloomy, a wall was made of bricks and gave the impression of a prison.

This time it was the sweet potato cinnamon roll. It seems that every time I visit The Cafe (yes, simply The Cafe, because it's pretty much the definition of what a cafe ought to be), some heretofore unnoticed menu item catches my attention.
Of cinnamon rolls there is no shortage in this world, and I pretty much like them all. But this sweet potato cinnamon roll ($2.95) has the dark, rich colors you'd expect from something made from sweet potatoes. Served warm, its texture is lush, more like creamy than bready.
It has a punchy cinnamon aroma, a thin, translucent glaze and a complicated sweetness that spreads slowly across the tongue. Comparing it to, say, your favorite coffeehouse cinnamon roll, you might think this one comes from another world. And you'd be right.
For years, chef Cindy Rubino (who owns The Cafe with her husband, Sal Rubino, who is usually found in the front of the house) has populated her kitchen with a crew of cooks from around the globe.
In a post-review phone interview, Rubino told me that she often works with Kentucky Refugee Ministries to recruit staff, and her multilingual kitchen crew hails from places like Burundi, Myanmar, Nepal and Turkey.
"It's a very exciting work environment," Rubino told me. "We're constantly talking about new techniques, recipes and ways to use spices. It's turned the kitchen into a great learning environment." And one where English-as-a-second-language instruction and a white board with translated terms are as much a part of the daily routine as chopping vegetables.
That sweet potato cinnamon roll? The idea came from a cook named Karima from Turkey. And you might find subtle international influences showing up in many dishes, but mostly what you find at The Cafe is a disciplined, thoughtful approach to food and dining that translates into excellence across the board.
The space is as beautifully lighted as an artist's studio — some of the best natural light in the city. Furnishings and art — one wall is covered with posters celebrating American musicals — fresh flowers, charming table settings and high standards of service have long made The Cafe one of the city's consistently best eateries.
On a busy Saturday morning, you might pick up the smell of French toast ($7.95) out in the parking lot. On the table, it's a glorious, golden, custardy concoction with cinnamon, pecans and apples. Or maybe what you smelled outside was a Belgian waffle ($4.95), or the roasted potato mixed-grill hash ($7.95), chunks of redskin potatoes, roast beef, corned beef and ham, with slivers of grilled onion and a drape of scrambled eggs over the top.
Or maybe it was the quiche-like meatless Strata Al Cucina, with layers of spinach, tomato, Swiss and Parmesan, all embedded in an eggy batter ($9.45).
Lunchtime offerings include soup (the best tomato dill you'll ever find, $3.55 for a cup, $5.25 for a bowl, and $13.25 for the quart you'll take home) and salads (it's an open question whether the best salad in the city is The Naturalistic, $8.95, with grapes, apples, raisins, feta and red onion on a bed of greens; or the Tuscan roasted chicken salad, $9.95, with a slightly different mix of veggies and gorgeous roasted chicken breast).
House-made pimento cheese — an exemplary rendition of one of the South's greatest dishes — can be had as a cold sandwich ($8.45, with a side) or as a pita-based pizza, accompanied by a cup of chili ($9.45).
The Cafe is, of course, a cafe. And sandwiches are central to the menu. Many of us take sandwiches for granted, as a quick convenience food. That's not the case at The Cafe, where every sandwich is mindfully composed.
Whether your taste runs to the Louis IV (freshly baked chicken breast mixed with apples, celery and pecans, $8.95) or The Neoclassical (a veggie combination of carrots, cucumbers, red onions, banana peppers, walnut-wheat bread and miso-dill ranch cream cheese, $8.45), it'll be excellent.
Add one or more of the sides (like the colorful, satisfying Fiesta bean salad), and you can create combination lunches for dining in or box-lunch delivery (sandwich with side and cookie, $9.45; two sides, $9.95; half-sandwich and a cup of soup with a side and cookie, $9.45).
As for dessert, well, that sweet potato cinnamon roll is just one example from a great pastry program.

Home-Start charity shop in Lord Street, Watford, set to reopen after revamp
10:50am Thursday 10th October 2013 in News By Claire Maxwell, Reporter
A Watford charity shop has undergone a revamp and is set to be opened by the town's elected mayor on Friday.
Home-Start, in Lord Street, is currently being refurbished with the assistance of some local businesses. John Lewis Brent Cross is overseeing the revamp with Watford Hilton Hotel helping paint the charity shop.
Emma Power, scheme manager, said: "Our wonderful shop volunteers are also using their skills in refurbishing the charity shop."
The refurbished charity shop will be launched and open to the public on Friday, October 11 between 1pm and 2pm.
Ms Power said: "Dorothy Thornhill is joining us to open the shop and as we are the Watford Sainsbury's charity they will be providing us with Bucks Fizz and soft drinks to celebrate and delicious cup cakes."
She added: "We are waiting to see if a past footballer of the Watford club may be able to join in with the celebration."

Rancho Cucamonga, CA - The Los Angeles Dodgers have named outfielder Scott Schebler, who spent the entire 2013 season with the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, as their 2013 Minor League Player of the Year.
Schebler, 22, enjoyed a break-out season this year and was named a California League Post-Season All-Star. The Cedar Rapids, Iowa native batted a team-high .296, with 27 home runs (second in the league), 91 RBIs (seventh) and a league-best 69 extra-base hits, helping him to the second-best slugging percentage (.581) in the circuit.
Former Quake Zach Lee was named the Dodgers' Minor League Pitcher of the Year, after a strong year for Double-A Chattanooga of the Southern League. Lee, 22, finished the year with a record of 10-10 and a 3.22 ERA over 28 games for the Lookouts. The 2012 Quake was third in the league in punch-outs (131) and was also named a mid-season Southern League All-Star.
Both Schebler and Lee will be honored at Dodger Stadium before Sunday's regular-season finale against the Colorado Rockies.
Don't forget that Ticket Packages and Group Tickets will be on sale soon. For more information, call (909) 481-5000 or visit our website at rcquakes.com. We hope to see you at LoanMart Field very soon. Go Quakes!

1. A bassinet/moses basket. Considering these only last a baby a maximum of six months, chances are you can find one secondhand in great condition. I bought the organic bassinet pictured above, retailing for around $350, for just $100 used, and sold it for the same when I was done!
2. A dresser/change table. A vintage dresser is a great way to add some age, some depth to a new nursery. Add a change mat on top and you have yourself a change table for as long as you need it.
3. The crib. If you decide to go straight to a crib and forego the bassinet, a crib can be purchased used: all you will need is a new mattress. Remember, stay away from drop side cribs - they are dangerous and illegal to sell used.
4. The stroller. Test out strollers at the baby store, and have a quick look online to see if anyone is selling the same model.
5. Bouncers and swings. These almost always have removable, washable covers and can be recovered if the design isn't to your liking.
6. The high chair. You won't need one for at least 4 months, but when you do, if there's a particular one you want, you might get lucky online. I had my heart set on a Stokke Tripp Trapp, and found one on Craigslist for just $10! The paint needed a touch-up, but that's only a small amount of work for a savings of $200!!
Good luck, and happy secondhand hunting!

Public Life & Institutions Collection
Image: Model - Captain Cook's Cottage, Cyril Noisette, Icing, 1934
Source: Museum Victoria
The lives of all Victorians are shaped by organisational and institutional structures in the public sphere. Such structures are dynamic, always in the process of creation, redefinition, maintenance, and change.
While some individuals may have the opportunity to participate in the creation of some of these structures, and to influence their direction, others suffer under, negotiate with or react to them. Groups of people may then combine to bring about changes to the ways the structures operate and develop.
This collecting field is concerned with communal and institutional activities in the public sphere in Victoria since 1835. Material evidence generated as a result of particular forms of public, cultural, political and institutional activity in Victoria is collected to document distinctive forms of urban and regional life.
The collection focuses on the operation of particular structures at particular times, and also on the processes of change, continuity, reaction and adaptation. Sub-themes include celebrations and festivals; political history; charity and welfare; ritual and belief; and images and icons of Melbourne.
It also illustrates the events and patterns that help us define and understand Australian identity in all its complexity and diversity. A wide range of material has been gathered from many organisations and institutions, both active and inactive.

Tight ends transformed
Tight ends transformed
Gronkowski enters record books
Gronkowski enters record books
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — With his two touchdown catches yesterday, rookie tight end Rob Gronkowski upped his total to nine on the season. That's two more than all of the tight ends combined in Tom Brady's arsenal last season.
That number also put Gronkowski in the same sentence with Patriots Hall of Famer Ben Coates, with whom he now shares the franchise record for most touchdown receptions by a tight end in a season.
Should he pull in three more touchdown passes against the Dolphins next Sunday, he will tie Mike Ditka's NFL record for a rookie tight end.

Believers flock to miracle 'bleeding' Mother Mary statue in US
Jul 18, 5:43 pm
London, July 18 (ANI): Faithfuls are gathering in a small Louisiana neighbourhood to witness a statue of Mother Mary "bleeding."The statue of the Mother Mary holding baby Jesus is in the front garden of a house in Baton Rouge. The house owner,
Hai Nguyen, had been cutting his lawn when he looked up and saw blood on the statue which seemed to be coming out of Mary's temple, his family said. According to WLOX Channel 13, neighbour Kim Pham
said that the blood had been dripping down the statue's face."He don't know how to explain it. He just know that maybe God sent a message through Mary," the Daily Mail quoted Nguyen's daughter as saying.Believing that it had been a real message from God, the family called everyone whom they knew to come and see the bleeding Mary with their own eyes. As news spread and more believers arrived to the place, the family erected a gazebo for the faithful to keep an overnight vigil in front of the statue. "So everybody come over and we pray all night last night. All night," Pham said.Local priests took samples of the substance from the statue's face to determine what it was.A religious studies professor from Louisiana State University told CNN that the observation demonstrated the devotion of these believers."One way to think about it is to see how this is real to those who devote themselves to Mary and what that means to them as a kind of prayerful way to contemplate the role Mary in their lives or Jesus in their lives and for many people it's empowering and it's a way to return to a devotion," the professor said.

In the film La Nouvelle Kahnawake the French duo Patrick Bernier and Olive Martin zoom-in on a Mohawk tribe of Canadian First Nations people, located on the south shore of the St Lawrence river across from Montréal (Québec, Canada). Yet the film is as much about the artists research and presence in Kahnawake as it is about the Mohawks who live there. The artists appear throughout the film, embedding and acknowledging their own position as outsiders noting, "If this is a documentary then the subject is us." But it's not just a documentary, nor a critical analysis of the legal loopholes, business practices and cultural histories of the Mohawks. It's a poetic and performative investigation of relationships in the global sphere, impacted by a cluster of forces so multiple and complex as to become abstract, almost metaphysical.

Pit three or four plump cherries and toss them into a cocktail shaker. Add 1/2 oz of the homemade rosemary cardamom bitter liquor and using a wooden spoon or a muddler mash the cherries and the liquor. Fill shaker with ice and add 1 1/2 oz the Willet's Rye. Shake vigorously and strain into a cocktail glass. Squeeze a few drops of fresh lemon juice into the drink and add a sprig of fresh Rosemary as garnish.
This game concept is the result of an ongoing series of conversations between two friends, curator Joseph del Pesco and game designer Al McElrath. McElrath was involved in the production of the single-player console (Xbox) version/translation of the popular PC game America's Army (AA), the most successful tool ever deployed by the US Army's recruiting department. "The game had more impact on recruits than all other forms of Army advertising combined." But AA is more than an advertisement. Like a flight simulator used for the education of pilots, AA purports to "provide players with the most authentic military experience available". In other words, it occupies a slippery ground between a simulator designed for soldiers-in-training and a commercial game intended for the entertainment market. In fact, its proximity to "authenticity" may be the very thing that makes it such popular entertainment.
The conditions for artists in San Francisco have become increasingly precarious since the dot.com boom and bust of the late 1990s. Housing prices have ballooned as has the cost of living. In the US, California suffers from the least state funding for the arts as a result of the professionalization and privatization of the arts that began in the Reagan years and continues under the pressures of neoliberal capitalism. The aftershocks of the culture wars continue to be felt on a national level as a general mistrust of artists as a political liability, despite growing audiences at major museums. The San Francisco Bay Area, however, has been feted as an oasis for the newly identified "creative class" which have, for better and worse, influenced policy makers and real-estate developers who see a thriving culturati as an important register in a city's quality of life index.

Wade Phillips
Sorry. I know the visual that title created in your head.
But it's true, Wade Phillips has removed himself from consideration for the Bucs' head coaching job.
Phillips, 64, was scheduled to interview following the Texans practice in Houston on Friday, but sources with knowledge of the Bucs' coaching search said he called general manager Mark Dominik early Thursday evening and told him he was pulling out.
The notification from Phillips came shortly after Phillips said during an afternoon news conference that he preferred to stay in Houston.
"My first priority is to be here, "Phillips said. "I like it here. I love it here. We've had such a magical year and we're going to keep it going so that's my first choice.''
Phillips seems like a guy who really wants a head coaching position, so either he didn't think he had a shot or the Texans promised him a pretty sizable raise to drop out of the race. Either way, everyone who was saying that the Bucs' roster would choke on the 3-4 can all re

"Maniacal" Ballmer on Facebook and free software
Posted by Brier Dudley
Here's the Times of London interview with Steve Ballmer that has Facebook fans in a tizzy today.
Ballmer was coy about Microsoft's rumored investment in the social networking company, which may be part of his strategy to "surprise" investors with a foray into advertising.
Facebook's networking effect has value but the site is faddish and its technology isn't revolutionary, Ballmer said:
"There can't be any more deep technology in Facebook than what dozens of people could write in a couple of years."
That was the money quote, but he said some interesting things later about Microsoft's new take on free software and services. I wish the article kept going; it ends just after it turns to this topic. A few excerpts:
Mr Ballmer suggests that there lies a new formidable force behind the drive into advertising. "My general rule of thumb today is that anything the consumer doesn't have to pay for, they won't," he says.
I'm surprised he didn't use the opportunity to plug the new Office Live services, but maybe the interview was done before Monday's launch. The story almost reads like a set-up for the new services:
The admission beckons towards a trend of free online software and services that has the potential to decimate Microsoft. Google and IBM, for example, recently launched free alternatives to Microsoft Office, Mr Ballmer's biggest earner by far. The stalwart suite of office tools, which includes Word and Excel, accounted for revenues of $4.6 billion -- a third of Microsoft's total sales -- in the company's most recently reported quarter.Microsoft is in danger of losing licence fees that it has milked for decades as customers depart for free alternatives. The answer: Microsoft will also offer free services -- e-mail, photoshare, instant messaging and the like -- and reap revenues through advertising.
"There is no way to play in broad consumer services unless you're going to use advertising," Mr Ballmer says, "and you only have two choices for advertising: one, you do it yourself, or you outsource it to Google. In our case, that's probably not going to happen."
