More information: |
This book addresses the related topics of self-control and individual autonomy. "Self-control" is defined as the opposite of akrasia - weakness of will. The study of self-control seeks first to understand the concept on its own terms, and its bearing on one's actions, beliefs, emotions, and personal values. It goes on to consider how a proper understanding of self-control and its manifestations can shed light on personal autonomy and autonomous behavior.

She said Snyder seemed satisfied that Detroit emergency manager Kevyn Orr held good-faith negotiations with creditors before recommending bankruptcy to the governor in July. Creditors aren't so sure.
"We're still very concerned that there were no proper negotiations going into this process and that if we had more time and better negotiations perhaps there could be have been a different result," Levine said.
Last month, the attorney general's office tried to keep Snyder on the sideline by invoking executive privilege, a common defense. But that didn't seem to sit well with U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes, so lawyers for the governor said he would agree to be interviewed.
Snyder has repeatedly said bankruptcy was a last resort for Detroit, which has lost 25 percent of its population since 2000 but continues to bear pension and health care obligations struck in better times. He benched local elected leaders in March when he appointed Orr, a bankruptcy specialist, as emergency manager with sweeping powers.
Schindler doubted that Snyder, a certified public accountant who rarely strays from a cautious style of speaking, would give any fuel to critics who want to derail the bankruptcy case.
"He's a very talented, savvy fellow who understands how the legal system works," Schindler said. "I'm sure he'll be careful, precise and honest in what he says."
Governors and other high-ranking officials generally are protected from testifying in a legal matter. But there are exceptions, especially when the topic is outside their public role. In 1998, President Bill Clinton was on the hot seat when he gave a deposition in a civil lawsuit filed by Paula Jones, who claimed he had sexually harassed her when he was Arkansas governor.

Green Bank gets $25M growth investment
- Collin Eaton
- Reporter- Houston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
When three private equity investors dropped $100 million on Green Bank two years ago, it had $536 million in assets.
Now, after three acquisitions, the bank stands at $1.4 billion in assets, and it's rolling up its sleeves to double its growth again.
Green Bancorp Inc., the holding company for Houston-based Green Bank, got another $25 million infusion from those three private equity investors, according to regulatory filings.
Green Bank — the fifth-largest financial institution based in Houston — wants to double its size to more than $3 billion in assets in the next 2 1/2 years and is looking to score more bank acquisitions along the way in the Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston and Austin markets.
"Due to our organic growth and the three acquisitions we've done since (the $100 million investment), we just got to the point where we thought it was a good idea to inject another small amount," said Geoff Greenwade, president and CEO of Green Bank. "The $25 million should keep us actively growing organically and allow us to continue to shop for mergers and acquisitions. What we've found is once you have excess capital on your books, it's easier to have those conversations than to be at the normal 8 to 10 percent capital level."
Looking at the rest of the year, the bank saw it would get close to spending all of its $100 million. The bank doesn't currently have any specific plans laid out for the new $25 million, but it'll most likely be used for shopping for banks and growth in general.
Greenwade said the bank continues to have conversations, "put things in our pockets and knock on doors," but currently doesn't have a deal to announce anytime soon. In doubling its size over two years, Greenwade speculates that one-third of the bank's growth will be organic and two-thirds will come from bank deals.

Workforce training to be provided
2:36pm Wednesday 21st August 2013 in Business By Jill Harding
THE Swindon and Wiltshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) and Serco Vocational Training will provide skills training to the area's workforce in order to aid business growth.
Having acquired European funding for the project, the LEP and Serco have identified priority areas in which to improve the skill level of Swindon and Wiltshire's workforce.
These include manufacturing and advanced engineering, business and financial services, tourism, land-based industries, environmental technologies and life sciences.
Skills development is a key objective for the LEP and the focus will now be on engaging with small and medium enterprises (SMEs) across Swindon and Wiltshire in order to address their skills needs and deliver the training.
Commissioned by the Skills Funding Agency (SFA), the contract will run until July 2015.
Isobel Brown, director of partnership and programmes at the LEP, said: "The Swindon & Wiltshire LEP is very excited by our new partnership with Serco Vocational Training.
"We have identified key sectors that will benefit from skills training and look forward to seeing the positive effects that this programme has on business growth in the area."
Lesley Watson, head of apprenticeships, Serco said: "This is the first time that Local Enterprise Partnerships have played a critical role in determining the effective use of European funding at a local level.
"We will be closely working with the LEP and local businesses to meet workforce development needs across the region and will be delivering a variety of different training courses using a range of subcontractors.
"By working in partnership with a range of diverse organisations, we strongly believe that we will be able to meet the LEP's priorities, developing the workforce skills that businesses need to help them grow."

Good Points
Reliability, features, design, menu, sound quality, price.
Bad Points
Battery life (I recommend to replace the standard NiMH battery with a Li-Ion).
General Comments
I think that the Siemens M35i is a very good mobile phone and a great value for money. Its dimensions are very good and has an internal antenna. The phone is really tough, I have it almost 2 years and I have dropped it MANY times... Also, the M35i has adequate features: WAP, calendar, currency converter, chronometer etc, and its menu is functional and user friendly. The display is clear with dimmer, which is something I like very much. Sound quality and reception are very good and I haven't encountered problems so far. The only thing I didn't like was the phone's NiMH battery which I had to recharge every 2 days, so I bought a Li-Ion one and now I recharge it every 4-5 days! Overall, I think that the phone really worths its money so I strongly recommend it.

WITH no hinterland or natural resources, Singapore's Government has long cultivated this island-state's stability as corporate pastureland, leaving citizens to reap what they call the five C's: a car, a condo, credit cards, cash and a career with a multinational.
Ben Lim, 37, had it all. He was running the global computer systems for a 150-year-old British bank and earning $300,000 a year.
Then, in April, he did something that seemed contrary to everything Singapore Inc. stood for: he quit. Not to join another multinational company for more money, but to start a tiny high-technology company here with three other entrepreneurs -- a college buddy, a Japanese paraglider and a digital tinkerer who had helped authorities put urine detectors in Singapore's elevators.
Even stranger, the Government -- notorious for central planning and ironclad control -- wishes there were more people here like Mr. Lim.
Singapore is already a center for making high-technology hardware -- it is, for example, the world's largest producer of computer disk drives. And through the 90's, the Government has been plotting to make it an ''intelligent island,'' a networked city that would be Asia's Silicon Valley.

BMW Engine Parts
BMW produces a number of car models that auto fans love to admire and enjoy. In doing so, each of these cars incorporate different engine designs with hundreds of specially-made parts, consumables, and components that all need to work together to produce the BMW driving experience.
Much of the higher cost for BMW engine parts is that they are manufactured and shipped from outside the U.S. However, a lot of the cost also has to do with price markup. The "import" label can be a cover for many dealerships and mechanic shops specializing in BMW engine parts to charge more. Customers usually don't have any real reference, so how would they compare a fair price to a bad one? They can't except on BMW engine parts.
BMW Parts Online
FCP Euro provides a BMW engine part alternative for those who love their BMW cars but don't love the inflated bills that come with their repair. Using ASE-certified technicians to help customers, FCP Euro's system stocks hundreds of BMW-specific engine parts that address multiple BMW car models, from the BMW SUVs to their famous Z-series Roadsters. Carrying both OEM engine parts as well as aftermarket BMW engine parts, FCP Euro provides a library of high quality replacement parts are prices far cheaper than what may be provided at a dealership or mechanic service.
Looking for a throttle assembly? Maybe all that's needed is a mass air flow sensor unit. Whatever the case, FCP Euro will provide easy access to its inventory covering these parts and many more for BMW engines, all of which is in stock.
BMW Engine engine parts are also easy to find on FCP Euro's website as well. Utilizing a customer-friendly online search system, engine parts for custom kitted products, aftermarket parts, and even OEM engine parts can all be found and compared for price. This allows a BMW owner to find the specific engine parts that best serve his car as well as his wallet.
Additionally, utilizing FCP Euro is made even easier by the guidance of its ASE-certified technicians as well as the fact that engine part orders over $149 total include free shipping. For anyone who has had to order engine parts the shipping cost alone can sometimes be as much as 10 to 20 percent of the total order cost. And some engine parts can be heavy or require shipping surcharges. So this is a huge boon for customers.
Even if a mechanic service is needed to install engine parts ordered, customers can still take advantage of FCP Euro's prices and in stock same day shipping features. Most BMW dealerships and businesses will perform the necessary repair service because they still need the business. Customers should keep in mind that non-BMW engine parts will likely not come with associated warranties from BMW dealers, but this is normal for aftermarket engine parts. Additionally, customer-provided engine parts let the dealership off the hook for engine part failure because it wasn't sourced through their system. That said, FCP Euro provides only high quality engine replacement parts, so this sort of scenario should not be an issue for BMW engine owner.

Charles Bridge in Prague.
Inside the walled city at Prague Castle.
Up on the hill above the city and river is Prague Castle.
There are a number of old Synagogues in Pragues old Town. Here a few photos of them.
My friend Al (a blacksmith from the Ukrainian Village) told me that while in Prague I had to find a blacksmith who set up shop on the streets of Prague. I eventually found him and he made all kinds of things on his portable forge.
In the Old Town Square in Prague their is a medieval astronomical clock. It dates from the 15th Century and every hour, on the hour, it chimes a mechanized procession of the Twelve Apostles. A small trap door opens and Christ marches out ahead of his disciples, while the skeleton of death tolls the bell to a defiant statue of a Turk. So many people gathered around the square at the top of every hour just to watch the clock.
After all the fun I had in Budapest, my next stop was Prague, Czech Republic. Prague is a city full of beautiful architecture and I was lucky enough to get an insiders tour of all the most picturesque squares and streets. My friend Kendrah (who I stayed with in Brussels) hooked me up with friends of hers. They toured me around Prague and hosted me for a couple nights at their house. I became fast friends with their 2 year old daughter, even though when I spoke to her in English she looked at me like I was crazy! She speaks Czech and German.

CMI progress slows
Columbia, MD. – After six months of solid gains, the Credit Managers' Index (CMI) showed slower progress and registered declines in key indicators. There was still some positive movement in the Index as a whole, but there are obvious weaknesses showing up in terms of credit availability, credit applications and sales.
The CMI showed a dramatic decline from the levels in July, but overall the index gained and moved a little closer to the magic number of 50, climbing from July's combined index score of 48 to the August score of 48.1.
These numbers are a little sobering given the sense that the economy had started to come out of the recession in July's report. This suggests that the proposed recovery is a little weaker than some of the indicators reflect, especially in terms of availability of money. The reduction in credit applications indicates that there is less willingness to lend and that companies seeking credit are being put through more hoops than in the past. The number of additional disputes and delinquencies also suggests that some sectors of the economy are still struggling.

On the subject of blankets being lifted, I will add a warning I heard shortly after a jamboree. Keeping in mind that the value of a blanket is in the badges on it, not the blanket, there are those unscrupulous collectors who will collect individual badges from others blankets. I heard that apparently at the jamboree, some unfortunate people had the experience of wearing their blankets for campfires and later finding that someone had helped themselves to a badge or two by the simple method of cutting it from the blanket with a razor while the blanket was being worn. Appalling to think that anyone who has made the scout promise could be capable of such things, but a significant reason why I understand that scouts attending jamborees are now discouraged from taking campfire blankets.

1-2 bunches of kale is plenty for the recipe. I'm not sure sherry vinegar is absolutely necessary - Janice used cider vinegar and my guess is that the flavor change would be minimal at best. This basically tastes a lot like a typical side of Southern greens.

Judge sides with US in Manning document dispute
WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge in Baltimore said Wednesday she's satisfied for now with measures the military has taken to release documents related to Army Pfc. Bradley Manning's court-martial in the Wikileaks case.
Lawyers for the New York-based Center for Constitutional Rights and other groups, including The Associated Press, have complained for more than a year that court documents related to the military case were being released too slowly, if at all. Earlier this month, however, the Army put the vast majority of the documents online. The Army also promised to be forthcoming with the documents as Manning's trial, which began June 3, continues at Maryland's Fort Meade. The documents are being posted for the public and press on an Internet site.
But lawyers for the center said they weren't satisfied. One argued in court Monday that the Army's turnaround time to release new documents — a goal of one to two days — was too long for journalists covering the trial. He also objected to redactions and sought access to transcripts or audio recordings of past proceedings.
But on Wednesday, the judge in the case, Ellen L. Hollander, sided with the Army. In a 42-page ruling she wrote of the lag time in releasing documents that there was "no indication that such a brief delay is unreasonable." And she said she wouldn't order the Army to speed up the release transcripts and audio of past proceedings because it would be "a serious and unwarranted interference in the operation of the court-martial." She also agreed certain redactions were appropriate.
A lawyer for the Center for Constitutional Rights, Shayana Kadidal, said the decision was "disappointing" and that the center is considering its options.
The center initially petitioned an Army court in May 2012 for better access to the documents, filing its petition on behalf of the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks, its founder Julian Assange and several left-leaning pundits and publications. At the time, pre-trial proceedings in the case were underway. But the nation's highest military court said earlier this year that it wasn't the right place for the dispute. Some of the judges suggested the dispute could be heard by a civilian court, which is how the case landed in federal court in Baltimore.
Manning's trial, meanwhile, began its third week Monday. The 25-year-old Oklahoma native has acknowledged giving information to WikiLeaks, but said it did not harm national security. He faces numerous charges, including aiding the enemy, which carries a potential life sentence.
As of Wednesday evening, the last time case documents were posted on the Army site was Tuesday morning.

The policies have helped fuel a huge expansion of U.S. solar and wind capacity in recent years. Now debates are arising, especially in Republican-held statehouses, about whether they increase costs for customers.

There is no federal rule requiring utilities to purchase renewable energy, but mandates require it in 29 states. This year, legislators in at least 14 of those states have introduced bills that would water down or repeal renewable-energy mandates, according to the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency at North Carolina State University, though none has been signed into law so far.
Ohio state Sen. Bill Seitz, a Republican who is leading a review of his state's renewable-energy mandate, said the policy reminded him of "Joseph Stalin's five-year plan." He added that his main interest is "in what delivers the lowest price for electricity in our state. That is what we are trying to figure out."
Backers of the mandates say the U.S. needs to shift away from fossil fuels to prevent global warming and disruptive climate changes, and that the policies create jobs and entice companies to invest in the U.S.
The state battles show how the front lines of energy policy are moving away from a gridlocked Congress. "We've shifted a lot of resources away from federal lobbying," said Michael Brune, executive director of the Sierra Club, the big environmental group that has pushed for more use of renewable energy. The club boosted its presence in North Carolina ahead of the 2012 elections and is keeping staff on the ground to work on several energy bills there.
Despite tough Chinese competition In the solar power business, solar energy is growing in popularity in the U.S. Three solar company CEOs tell WSJ's Russel Gold that as costs comes down solar power is becoming competitive with conventional power.
Meanwhile, Grover Norquist, the antitax advocate better known for his influence with conservatives in the nation's capital, has signed letters to lawmakers in Kansas, North Carolina and other states urging them to support the rollbacks, saying a mandate "acts much like a tax increase" by boosting energy bills. Studies from conservative think tanks have predicted double-digit cost increases from various state mandates.
Supporters of renewable energy call the projections of cost increases overblown. The Kansas state utility regulator recently estimated the state's mandate accounted for less than 2% of electricity costs in 2012.
States with mandates "have seen in some cases over a billion dollars of investment and thousands of jobs both in construction and manufacturing," said Rob Gramlich, interim chief executive of the American Wind Energy Association. "The benefits are no longer hypothetical."
Most of the current policies act like North Carolina's. Utilities there must generate energy from sources the law classifies as renewable—including wind and solar farms and landfill gas—or cut usage through energy efficiency. The renewable sources and efficiency savings must account for 12.5% of retail electricity sales by 2021.
North Carolina adopted the law in 2007, when Democrats controlled the legislature. Both chambers flipped to Republican hands in 2010, one of 11 states nationwide where the GOP took control that year. Now, some leading North Carolina lawmakers are backing a repeal of the 2007 law.
The abundance of cheap natural gas in the U.S. is driving out carbon-free options: solar, wind, and nuclear. But is it the right solution to our environmental problems? NRG Energy CEO David Crane talks with energy reporter Russell Gold at WSJ's ECO:nomics conference.

The American Legislative Exchange Council, a nonprofit whose members include fossil-fuel companies and mostly Republican state legislators, created a model bill for rolling back the standards last year and urged its members to pass similar bills in 2013.
Rhone Resch, president of the Solar Energy Industries Association, said the push to repeal the mandates was coming from conservative think tanks "funded by fossil-fuel interests."
Todd Wynn, who directs ALEC's energy task force, said in an email, "I have not received one dime to work directly on renewable-energy mandates."
In Texas, freshman state Rep. Scott Sanford, a Republican, said he got the idea to introduce a bill to eliminate the state's mandate from a paper by the Texas Public Policy Foundation that found the policy was increasing costs for Texas consumers.
According to a list of its 2010 donors, the foundation received funding from individuals affiliated with a range of fossil-fuel companies. The author of the foundation paper said funding didn't influence the study's outcome.
Mr. Sanford said he wrote the bill because he is opposed to government mandates, not because he favors any particular energy source—a sentiment echoed by legislators in other states. "Texas is blessed with a lot of incredible resources for energy, wind and solar amongst them. But they need to be developed with free-market principles, not with the heavy hand of government directing us to an inefficient process," he said in an interview.
The bills have passed one legislative chamber in both Montana and Missouri. But in Kansas, a bill to delay the state mandate has stalled in the House. The state Senate, also in Republican hands, rejected a similar bill.

so i saw this post going around and i had to share this with you guys because the story is even better.
so the austrians were setting up camp to defend a city from the turks. they sent out a group to scout for the presence of turks, but they couldn't find any. but a group of gypsies offered them alcohol and they bought it from them and drank it. a few hours later a different group of austrians saw them drinking and demanded alcohol too. the scouts wouldn't give it to them and they got into an argument until one of the soldiers fired a shot.
then all hell broke loose and they all started fighting each other until someone (falsely) started shouting "turks! turks!". most of both groups ran away thinking the turks's army were about to attack. it was made worse when the austrian officers started shouting "halt! halt!", but as most of the soldiers couldn't understand german, they thought they were shouting "allah! allah!".
as both of the groups ran back and approached the (sleeping) austrian camp, they camp thought the turks were invading and quickly shot artillery at them. this woke up the entire camp and as it was dark and everyone was confused, they fled and shot at everything that moved, thinking they were turks. the remaining 90,000 soldiers retreated from the city. the turks arrived two days later to find a pretty much empty city and 10,000 dead austrian soldiers and could easily take it.

Kovacevic: Pitt's Golden (Dome) opportunity
By Dejan Kovacevic
Published: Thursday, Nov. 1, 2012, 11:59 p.m.
Paul Chryst probably was one of those children whose expressions never change, even when sitting in pajamas by the Christmas tree. Every great gift might as well have been tube socks, every lousy gift an Xbox 360.
Upon losing to Youngstown State in his Pitt debut, the unflappable coach told us all: "We certainly have to become a better team."
After the ugly win in Buffalo: "By no means was it perfect."
Chryst is a passionate man, by all accounts, about his job and the young men he guides. But to say that it seldom bubbles up is akin to saying Tino Sunseri has his share of critics.
It's kind of fun, then, to picture how Chryst will react Saturday if the Panthers can buck all the forecasts and beat undefeated No. 3 Notre Dame in South Bend.
Thoughts on a potential first signature win, Coach?
"Well, I think it's more than just a game," Chryst replied to my question Thursday on the South Side. "Any time you get an opportunity like this … they don't come all that often, so you want to take advantage of it."
OK, so that's something. In context, that's like a battle cry from atop a charging horse.
Know this: Even if Chryst is privately ecstatic about the chance for his 4-4 team to spill the 8-0 Irish, even if he's spending his waking hours envisioning the nation tuning in for the 3:30 p.m. NBC broadcast, even if he's got "Rudy" playing on repeat mode, the man isn't going to show it.
That's why Chryst has had his players in all-business mode all week. He's got little to gain from having them so amped up about the Golden Dome and Touchdown Jesus that they can't function.
But for the rest of us, let's not pretend this game is anything less than one that can salvage Pitt's disappointing season.
And maybe much more.
All you have to do is flip back to Dec. 1, 2007.
The Panthers were 4-7, and heading to Morgantown to face a 10-1 West Virginia team for an event that historians can attest was known as the Backyard Brawl. Emotions were high, the stakes even higher for the Mountaineers, who needed the win for a BCS championship berth.
Pitt 13, West Virginia 9.
Who can forget it?
Certainly not the victorious quarterback that night.
"What I remember most was being out there celebrating like we'd won a high school championship, really whooping it up," Pat Bostick said Thursday. "But then when I saw it later on TV, you could tell that crowd was just shocked. Totally silent. Could have heard a pin drop in there except for us."
The winning didn't stop there. You can argue that 13-9 carried over for a couple years.
Wide receiver Cam Saddler, then at Gateway High School, was visiting West Virginia that game and wound up walking off the field with the Pitt guys. Eight others, notably Jonathan Baldwin and Mike Shanahan, soon followed.
Call it coincidence, but Pitt went 9-4 and 10-3 the next two seasons, the best back-to-back outputs in three decades.
"There's no doubt in my mind that game had a residual effect," Bostick said. "A lot changed."
"I've been in places where we've had big wins, and there's certainly momentum that comes from them," Chryst said. "I think the biggest thing is for the group of guys. They're the ones who go out and get it done."
I'll be blunt: I don't think the Panthers will pull off a sequel Saturday.
But I also won't say they can't.
Notre Dame's defense has allowed an absurd 9.9 points per game — only No. 1 Alabama is better — and the Irish ground game has topped 200 yards the past two weeks. Logic tells you that both of Pitt's beleaguered lines will be overwhelmed.
Thing is, logic sometimes also can add up to 13-9.
Logic can point to Pitt winning two of the past three in South Bend, including the four-OT thriller in 2008.
Or logic can point to these Irish coming off three tough wins — over No. 17 Stanford, by three points over BYU and over No. 8 Oklahoma — with a possible letdown at hand.
Or logic can toss out intangibles and point to Pitt's skill on offense. Ray Graham and Rushel Shell should be able to run against any Division I defense, much as Shady McCoy stormed West Virginia in 2007 for 148 yards. There's big-play ability at receiver, too. And Sunseri … well, look, you can keep crushing him for how he played in the past, or you can applaud how efficiently he's playing now.
To repeat, I don't think it will happen.
But if it does, no one will have much more to say about Youngstown State or Buffalo than Chryst did.
