I realize it's been a while since my last blog post. Those pesky finals kept getting in the way. Thank God that's over with for now. I have been so busy this year that I had to cross some things off my to-do list. I usually send out homemade Christmas cards every year. Not this year. Also, my front yard usually is comparable to the Griswold's. I didn't get a chance to make a gingerbread house with the kids either. Oh well. Maybe next year.
The holiday parties we hosted went well. The first one we had 30ish guests and last Saturday we hosted 58 people. It was a blast! Everything is wrapped. Baking is done. Now, there is only one more thing to do before tomorrow.
Have you seen this? http://www.northpole.com/Parents/verify.asp You can upload a picture of your house to the website and "catch" Santa in the act. I think I'm going to try it. It should be fun since the kids are always trying to sleep under the Christmas tree to catch the big guy.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

De Klerk honours Mandela, recalls 'stormy' relationship
F.W de Klerk, the former South African president who shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Nelson Mandela, on Friday paid tribute to his successor while recalling their "often stormy" relationship. "It was an honour to work with former president Nelson Mandela in bringing democracy to South Africa," de Klerk said in a statement after the death of the anti-apartheid hero. When Mandela was finally released from prison in February 1990 he was entrusted with the task of persuading the new president de Klerk to call time on the era of racist white minority rule. Mandela and de Klerk, South Africa's last white president, were jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 for their role in the ending of apartheid.
Anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela dies aged 95
Nelson Mandela, the icon of South Africa's anti-apartheid struggle and a colossus of 20th century politics, died late Thursday aged 95, prompting mass mourning and a global celebration of his astonishing life. The Nobel Peace laureate, who was elected South Africa's first black president after spending nearly three decades in jail, died at his Johannesburg home surrounded by his family, after a long battle against lung infection. The news was announced to the nation and the world by an emotional South African President Jacob Zuma, in a live late-night broadcast. "Our beloved Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the founding president of our democratic nation, has departed," said Zuma, whose own role in the struggle against white rule saw him imprisoned with Mandela on Robben Island.
South Africa, world mourn 'giant for justice' Mandela
By Ed Cropley and Pascal Fletcher JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South African anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela died peacefully at home at the age of 95 on Thursday after months fighting a lung infection, leaving his nation and the world in mourning for a man revered as a moral giant. President Jacob Zuma's announcement late on Thursday of the death of a man who was a symbol of struggle against injustice and of racial reconciliation reverberated through South Africa and around the world. Mandela's passing, while long expected, left Africa's biggest economy still distant from being the "Rainbow Nation" ideal of social peace and shared prosperity that he had proclaimed on his triumphant release from prison in 1990. "He's in a better place, but I really hope South Africa realises what he wanted us to be ... we are not even half-way to what he wanted us to be," local resident Jack Van der Merwe said in the Johannesburg suburb of Melville.
Nelson Mandela, South Africa's peacemaker, dies
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Nelson Mandela was a master of forgiveness.
Nelson Mandela's death: Live Report
AFP IS CLOSING THE LIVE REPORT ON THE DEATH OF NELSON MANDELA, the South African anti-apartheid hero beloved as a global symbol of peace and forgiveness and the father of the "Rainbow Nation". 0245 GMT: F.W de Klerk, the former South African president who shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Mandela, has paid tribute to his successor while recalling their "often stormy" relationship. "It was an honour to work with former president Nelson Mandela in bringing democracy to South Africa," de Klerk said. Zindzi and Zenani had just met dignitaries including Prince William and wife Catherine at the screening when they were informed of the news by telephone "and immediately left the cinema," according to the Nelson Mandela Foundation.

This is part III in my series about using TaxonomyFields in SharePoint 2010. In this part I will talk about how to search TaxonomyFields. I will show how to set up the metadata properties and how to search TaxonomyFields programmatically. This post continues on my previous posts about this subject:
Part I: Declaration and initialization
Part II: Using taxonomyfields programmatically
Part III: Searching taxonomy fields (you are reading it!)
To use our taxonomyfields in SharePoint search they need to be available in the managed properties of the farm. This works a little bit different with TaxonomyFields than with other fieldtypes. In this example I use the custom contenttype created in part I of this series and make the contained TaxonomyField "My taxonomy field" searchable using SharePoint search.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin called out MSNBC executives for their "hypocrisy" following host Martin Bashir's attack against her during an appearance on Fox News Sunday.
Palin complained that MSNBC had given Alec Baldwin's show the boot after he made anti-gay comments, but that it had done nothing to Bashir following his suggestion that someone should "defecate" in her mouth.

This board and buyers have vanished......I would say that PEC is an ultimate Contrarian play now. If there is any chance that the unconventional drilling program pays off, this could jump like Goldquest did. From .04 to $2.03 in a very short period. Or it could go to zero. I would hope that the experienced oil people running the show have some sort of plan in place to keep from going to zero as the odds of the pre-salt well hitting were about 30%.

In Britain, scandal has plagued the Murdoch family and its News Corp. media conglomerate. And today, another blow. Under pressure, Rupert Murdoch's son, James Murdoch, is stepping down as chairman of British Sky Broadcasting, also known as BSkyB. This occurs against the backdrop, of course, of the phone hacking and police bribery scandal that has focused heavily on two Murdoch tabloid newspapers. NPR's media correspondent David Folkenflik has been covering all of this and he joins us now to sort this out. Good morning, David.

The hacking scandal that has ripped through Rupert Murdoch's newspapers in the U.K. has now led to son James Murdoch's decision to step down as chairman of the satellite broadcast giant BSkyB.
NPR's David Folkenflik tells our Newscast Desk that:
And that brings us to our last word in business, flying cars. Finally, they're here. Well, almost here. We're not exactly in Jetsons' territory quite yet. But a company in Massachusetts says its prototype flying car, called the Transition, completed its first flight and will be ready for sale within the next year.
The two-seat vehicle soared to 1,400 feet in its maiden voyage. The car - can we call it that - is expected to cost $279,000, and 100 buyers have already plunked down their deposits.
An inspector general's report about "excessive and wasteful" spending on a 2010 conference in Las Vegas hosted by the federal government's General Services Administration has cost GSA administrator Martha Johnson her job.
Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum have been fighting it out in Wisconsin for the past week. And Tuesday night they'll see the results of their labors. Republicans will also cast votes Tuesday in Maryland and Washington, D.C., primaries, though the candidates have not spent much time there.
In all three contests, polls show Romney with a wide lead. Yet Santorum continues to campaign as relentlessly as ever. On Tuesday's Morning Edition, NPR's Ari Shapiro and David Welna filed reports from the trail.
Originally published on Tue April 3, 2012 4:28 pm
Once the Republican presidential primaries entered April, leaving behind March with its run of several Southern contests, the electoral terrain was expected to start looking much better for Mitt Romney.
That seems the case Tuesday, as Wisconsin, Maryland and the District of Columbia hold the first primaries in April, with a total of 98 delegates at stake. The front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination is expected to have a very good day. Just how good remains to be seen.
Medicare coverage for people with depression used to be, well, depressing. But that's starting to change.
In October, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services began covering screening for depression without any cost-sharing when Medicare beneficiaries visit their primary care doctor.
Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, the suspected mastermind behind the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, India, that left 166 people dead, now has a $10 million bounty on his head from the U.S. State Department's "Rewards for Justice" program.
Six American citizens died in the Mumbai massacre.
Mobile gaming, or at least playing games on a cellphone, is nothing new. Just think of all the quick, sometimes mundane rounds of Snake you played if you were one of the lucky owners of that brick of a Nokia phone from the late '90s and early 2000s.
Yet as smartphones evolved in recent years, the number of games available on them grew rapidly, as well. It has become common to see users of Android phones and iPhones wrapped up in intense sessions of games like Angry Birds or Draw Something.
Kentucky is now in the record books as this year's NCAA Division I men's basketball champion after its 67-59 win over Kansas last night.
Survivors are telling harrowing tales about what happened Monday morning at Oikos University in Oakland when a man who police say once attended the small Christian school allegedly ordered the dozen or so people in a classroom to line up against a wall, drew a handgun and started firing.
Good morning, I'm David Greene. A Florida woman is putting her car in park after 576,000 miles. Rachel Veitch bought her Mercury Comet, new, in 1964. The car has been through 18 batteries and it's outlasted three marriages. Rachel even appeared on "The Tonight Show" with the vehicle. Now, her failing eyesight is forcing her to hang up her keys. She told Fox News she is not giving that car to her family, because they won't take care of it like she did. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.
Now a word about the media in China - it is heavily controlled by the government. That reality was clear on Saturday when new restrictions banning commenting were imposed on two Twitter-style websites. This followed online rumors about a military coup in Beijing. The government says the rumors aren't true. And today, the restrictions were finally lifted, but the government certainly made a point about who's in charge.
The nation of Mali is in turmoil. Within two short weeks, the apparently stable West African democracy has gone from preparing for presidential elections to a military coup. Neighboring countries are imposing a total embargo, demanding the coup leaders step down. Add to the mix a separatist rebellion in the north that has captured the fabled desert city of Timbuktu. From Mali's capital, Bamako, NPR's Ofeibea Quist-Arcton reports.

A sharply divided Supreme Court has ruled that individuals arrested for even the most minor offenses can be stripped searched before they are jailed while awaiting a hearing. The high court's five-to-four decision came in the case of Albert Florence, the finance director at a New Jersey BMW dealership. He was arrested, strip searched and held in prison for a week because of a computer error.
NPR's legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg reports.
DAVID WELNA, BYLINE: I'm David Welna in Ripon, Wisconsin. Rick Santorum got a big welcome yesterday from a pair of singing sisters as he campaigned in nearby Oshkosh.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMEN: (Singing) Yes, I believe Rick Santorum is our man. Yes, we believe...
WELNA: Santorum urged the several dozen people who showed up to take the day off from work today, take their friends to the polls and pull off another primary day surprise.
Sixteen years - that is a long time to be number one. And this week, media critics and TV viewers are wondering whether NBC's "Today Show" can stay on top. There was a time, of course, when the name Katie Couric was synonymous with the "Today Show," helping them make it the ratings winner in morning news. And this week, Katie Couric could be the one who helps break that winning streak. Couric now works for ABC, and all week, she's guest hosting rival show "Good Morning America" with George Stephanopoulos.

Please, pardon me. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Matthew, and I am a relatively new resident in Brookfield. I moved to CT from out of state and had the opportunity to choose in which town to live. I chose Brookfield over many other towns for several reasons. We have very good schools across the board, from kindergarten on up to high school. We have a good commercial presence in town and room for further growth. The residents are friendly and have a good sense of community. We also have lower taxes than many of our surrounding towns and that was before the reassessment lowered taxes on most households in town this year.
I have been getting involved in town governance, because I care. I care not only about the quality of education delivered by our schools, but also about our town's general well being as a great place to live. This requires a long-term view. Unfortunately, I think our Federal government has fallen prey to the influence of special interest groups, far-left and far-right factions. This is not what local politics should be about. The issues on the national level do not translate directly to the local level.
Connecticut has a fantastic tradition of government that is new to me, and I like it. I can tell you that I have participated in many discussions and debates over the last year regarding the town budget and school budget. If you have not done so, I encourage you to get involved in those conversations for the next budget. I found everyone involved to be very open to discussion (and educating me!). Thanks to all involved for that. Given the great number of meetings around the two budgets, you have no room to complain if you did not participate.
With regard to the budgets up for voter approval next week, I have seen first-hand the amount of work put into creating, revising and revising yet again the town and school budgets. They are both good, solid budgets. I am not a fan of government spending, but given my view toward economics and a long-term outlook, I thought the school budget was cut too much. The town and school budget proposals grew at a pace less than inflation. Given the cost increase in oil, gas and other supplies, this is an admirable budget proposal. Please don't fall into the extreme category of cutting costs regardless of impact to our town residents of all ages. Please also don't forget that the proposed budgets have been vetted prior to the vote by many in town. I must take a moment to tip my hat to First Selectman Bill Davidson and several others on the Boards of Finance and Education for their demonstrated level of fiscal responsibility and their high level of patience during the budget discussions. I also want to thank the many who compiled the proposals for their review.

Bad miss when cold
When I started the truck today after it had been sitting roughly 18 hours, I noticed a high idle and heavy miss. I let it run about a minute, and when under load, the miss went away. I turned a corner and as I went up the hill in 3rd, it stalled, then caught again running on maybe 4 cylinders. I stopped in a parking lot to check my UVCH connections, and it stalled. It restarted, but had very little throttle response. I removed the chip, and it restarted and ran to the point of being driveable, but still had a bad miss at idle. Only under load does the miss go away. I have new UVCH harnesses at the house, so I may swap those in. The glow plugs are a year old, the injectors are a year old, and the Stan-Cor relay is less than a year old. Yesterday when driving I noticed a slight miss, but nothing like it was today. Removing the chip seemed to help, but only slightly, which I thought was odd. Any suggestions?
Sponsored Links | ||
Advertisement | ||
How cold is it outside? How long do you let it run before driving it? Removing the chip will help defuel the injector pulse and lessen fuel squirted into the cylinder cold, meaning a more efficient burn in the cylinder.
It wasn't that cole. 35 or so. I'm thinking I had a connection problem with the chip and the PCM, because with the chip set to stock, it would start and immediately die. With it removed, however, the engine will idle without stalling. As I drove around the rest of the evening with the chip removed, the truck seemed to drive normally. I guess I'll look at all my connections when I get home and see if that was the issue.
Maybe it is a bad connection with the chip. I usually pop my PCM though at the slightest hint of a bad connection. Dude, 35 is plenty cold. Do you have a friend with the same truck that doesn't drive it all that often? Swap Glow Plug Relays with them and I'd bet you'll get a better start up.
I'm running the Stan-Cor, so I shouldn't be having relay problems. I may have connection issues though, where I connect to the relay. I may get back in and try to scrub the connections on the PCM a little cleaner. Do you think it's worth doing the UVCH's?
Pull the connectors off and look inside. If the pins are shiny brass and there is no oil in there then the Wiring ought to be good. People have found that the UVCH somehow back off the injectors sometimes. I guess if you are going to open it up the might as well do the work.
I'll check them out here in a couple days. I'm wondering if I might not have a failing ICP sensor too, but I didn't think to pull the plug yesterday when it wouldn't start.
The same situation has occurred the past two mornings. I believe I have a pinhole in a fuel line, as I've been smelling diesel, finding little diesel spots around the motor, and now am having this starting issue. I tend to think that a very small hole is allowing the fuel in the supply line to drain back to the tank, causing the fuel pump to suck air and be unable to provide fuel pressure for a 3 minute window that is almost exactly 2 minutes after starting the engine. I have fuel in the valley, I just need to pinpoint where it's coming from and I think I can fix it. I've got the full o-ring set for the fuel bowl, too. How hard are they to rebuild?
Look at the bottom of the fuel bowl and around the up pump. The lines under the bowl are prone to leaking and there is a weep hole on the pump. Get rid of this leak, diesel eats wiring. The longer it leaks the more other problems are going to show up.
Pump is new...I've got to pull the bowl and clean everything out, then drop it back in and see if I can figure it out. Wherever air is leaking in, fuel should be leaking out, shouldn't it? As long as the engine is running.

I came across this guide on optimizing CrunchBang Linux for use with a solid state drive (SSD), which gave me the idea of formatting my SSD using GUID Partition Table (GPT) via Gparted. One benefit is that partitions are automatically aligned on a 1024KiB block size base.
Below is the relevant section:
Step 1: Formatting the drive with a GUID partition table
Boot #! from a live cd or usb drive. Start up Gparted and go to Device–>Create New partition Table. Instead of using the traditional MS-DOS partition table, select GPT (GUID Partition Table). This will make Gparted automatically align your partitions on a 2048 sectors (or 1024KiB) block size base which should be compatible with the vast majority of SSD if not all. Create a single root partition that takes up the whole disk (more on this later). Before you apply these changes, right click the partition that you created and click on "Information." Make sure that the last sector is one less than a multiple of 2048. If it isn't, decrease the size of the disk accordingly until it is. For example, my 120gb drive has a first sector of 2048 and a last sector of 234440703, which is ((2048*114473)-1). Then just run the #! installer like you normally would (make sure to use ext4 as the file system type, install everything to the root partition you made, and ignore the messages about not having a swap partition (swap space not recommended for use on solid state disks for both performance and disk health reasons, and is not really necessary if you have at least 2Gb RAM, and if you don't, why are you spending money on a solid state disk!). GPT partition tables are not supported by GRUB legacy, but the #! disk I used installed GRUB2 by default, so if you are using an older version or a different distro, you might have to boot from a live environment again afterwards and run update-grub.
(Credit: mynis01)
For the first time ever, I installed a Linux distro without a swap partition. So far, I've not experienced any issues without a swap drive. My system has about 4GB of RAM.

This mosque is on highway no.42 (Pattani - Narathiwat route) at Ban Krue Se, and is about 7 kilometres from Pattani town. At present, this ancient venue is near Chao Mae Lim Ko Niao Chinese Shrine. Both places had their legend of the relationship depending on the beliefs. This mosque has round pillars which are in a Middle-Eastern style.

Salman Khan has had a serious changeover ever since his surgery and this is for good of the actor. Salman who was a chain smoker and had social drinking habits is reported to have completely done away with both.
A friend of Salman says, "Salman bhai is in his prime. He is enjoying success like never before and has become extremely disciplined. After his health scare around a year back due to trigeminal neuralgia (nerve pain), Salman does not want to hamper the recovery process any more. That's why he decided that he would quit smoking and drinking."
Apparently, it has been nearly five months now that Salman has not had a smoke or a drink. Also, in spite of him partying like always before, word is that he has made sure he stays away from any such bad habits.
Our source adds, "Salman is also making sure that he finishes his films as per schedule and is always present on the sets on time. He is also taking keen interest in every aspect of the film making including the promotions which he never did earlier."
The source further adds, "Salman's illness scared everyone around him and his family. He now does not want to do anything that will upset his family members and quitting drinking and smoking is the first step towards that."
Another interesting method said to be used by Salman Khan is that he holds the cigarette and puffs it without lighting it and throws it away, later one of his boys will go collect it and give it back for re-use. We think that the throwing away habit is quite unhygienic! Thats just us!
We are proud about this event and give full support to our beloved star!

"Sunkara and the new left that he represents— your Jacobin, your New Inquiry, sundry other publications arranged by Marxian youngsters into something resembling a Livejournal on class oppression— have got to understand that corruption will come in the form of social capture and the quid pro quo of "follow for a follow." The long-term, subtle (but vital, important) work of a new Marxist left is not going to be defeated by riot cops— nothing so aesthetically pleasing to the fashionistas— but by the New York cocktail party circuit. Ideological death for the left wing comes with an arm thrown over your shoulder, a friendly chat with the guy who maybe someday might write you checks that will pay your rent. If you'd like to depress yourself, you can find photos on Facebook of, say, arch media critic Alex Pareene at industry parties where people like Jacob Weisberg are mere feet away. Sunkara and all of them will have to decide if they want left-wing practice or if they want to participate in all of that. I'm hopeful, though recent evidence is not encouraging."
In large part, the shooters and arsonists who are behind many, if not most of these events in America, are white men. In large part, these men have either come of age in the shadow of September 11. They have watched the media, heard Department of Homeland Security officials, and followed as mostly white male (and some female) politicians have given the anxious go ahead to wage an enormous war against Muslims abroad (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan) or at home (in the form of the War on Terror). Several of them have served in a military that follows the orders of two U.S. Presidential administrations by training their men to shoot, invade, drop rockets from helicopters, and drones controlled remotely from Syracuse, NY and other air force bases in the United States.
These white men have learned their lessons well, whether in the military or from hours of media news: the frustrations of a scared (white) America can be dealt with waging a war using guns, bombs, chemicals, and drones. They have learned that it is ok to kill those who you believe to be behind threats to your comfort. They have internalized the message that those you fear can be addressed without words, without dialogue, but with violence, with power, with coercion. They have learned that some religions are automatically evil and that those who adhere to those religions must be destroyed. And these white men reflect an ideology of violence that has permeated America in the name of the War on Terror. Sadly, that ideology, perpetuated by our white men and women in power, carried out by American soldiers, and endorsed by a lapdog media, isn't fading away. It's becoming bigger, stronger, and more murderous.
These men are not mad or crazy. They are the well-trained students of American foreign and domestic policies. They have learned well the United States' message: that violence and mayhem are the answer. We need to change the scripts, and confront the fallout of a decade of the War on Terror—and other excuses for state-led violence quickly
Murdoch has hotly denied ever trading the influence of his market-leading newspapers in return for policy favours. "That was absolutely not News Corporation's policy and I would not do business like that," Murdoch repeated in a six-hour appearance before the Leveson inquiry on Tuesday.
But emails published by the inquiry indicate that some in Murdoch's inner circle were not blind to the political importance of the media group. Frédéric Michel, the head of European public affairs for News Corp and the man tasked with smoothing the way for the BSkyB deal, told Murdoch in an email on 10 January 2011 that Hunt might appreciate some friendly coverage in anticipation that the government would come under fire from those who opposed the $8bn takeover.
"He [Hunt] is keen to meet next Tuesday or Wednesday to discuss our submission. He said he would not be influenced by the negative media coverage but would welcomed [sic] other opeds like Littlewood or Elstein in the coming days," Michel said in the email to Murdoch. Two weeks later Mark Littlewood, director general of the Institute of Economic Affairs, issued a statement supporting the bid and David Elstein, former Thames TV and Sky executive, writes two pieces for Open democracy website in favour of the takeover.
What scares the banks is any criticism that goes beyond claims of greed or fraud or even incompetence, and instead questions the system itself. The sanctity and perfection of the system and its right to 'regulate' itself, is what they are totally committed to protect. The system is what gives them their status and wealth. Question that and you threaten them where they are vulnerable.
It seems to me therefore that it is high time we questioned not just the probity, or even the solvency of the big global banks but their very intellectual foundation. It is time for us to wrench back the initiative from the banks. The financial elite have spent all this last year rewriting history so that blame for the banking crisis has been turned away from them and laid instead at the door of 'people' and then entire nations who 'took' on debts they coudn't afford . It is time to counter-attack and make the case, that it was and is the way that banks and banking go about their normal business that caused this crisis and are still causing it. We have to show that it was not a break down in an otherwise fine system which caused this crisis but that it was a result and consequence of a system which is an utter failure at doing what it prides itself most on being able to do – managing risk. Not just a onetime failure but a systemic failure which presents an on-going danger to the rest of us.
Defined as a leading black feminist scholar for her work on developing black feminist thought, bell hooks clearly also had a blind spot regarding third world feminisms, which disappear from her formulations, except, perhaps, in "Third World Diva Girls: Politics of Feminist Solidarity." 16 While the essay claimed to work toward "feminist solidarity between black women/women of color" (94), it homogenized all "third world women" into some generic "third world woman." In this formulation, clearly no room exists for black feminist discourse in some sort of transnational context.
Again, speaking of its limits, and not devaluing its contributions, it is helpful to examine the underlying principles of the work of Patricia Hill Collins. In her Black Feminist Thought one is even more struck by the way in which the definitions of black feminism are circumscribed by U.S. nation-state, patriotic Americanism; the ways in which racial discourse in the United States consistently effaces "transnational Afro- diasporism.""Thus she dismisses the analyses of internal colonialism that would link African American populations in the United States more solidly to the discourses of African diaspora. Her essay "Learning from the Outsider Within: The Social Significance of Black Feminist Thought" is perhaps most instructive. It is based entirely on a position grounded in U.S. parochialism and by its very construction marks the limits of "outsider within" positionality. Beginning with the case of the domestic worker who knows the house better than the mistress allows her to construct black feminist intellectuals within a similar relationship to white feminists. The subject of the address is white women, with a U.S. definition of naturalized, essentialized race as marker, which thus allows her to develop what she calls "standpoint epistemology," that is, that U.S. black women as a group all see the world from a particular angle. It is only logical that the discourse will turn in onto itself in her formulation of Afrocentric feminism
Luckily, I managed to get a partial recording of the speech. Transcribed below, it began with Evans referring to a recent episode of BBC's Newsnight, during which former Sun editor Kelvin Mackenzie dismissed any attempt to understand the wider context of the riots…
… The presenter turned to Kelvin Mackenzie and said to him, "don't you think we should try to understand these riots?"
He said, "no I don't think we should". And there we have it. The lack of understanding; the wilful ignorance. To try and come to terms with what's caused this trouble in our society and this alienation where one large section of society just doesn't want to think about the people who are involved in it [the rioting]. And wants to write them off, criminalise them, and put them in to a sort of box where they don't have to be thought about.
I think that is what has characterised the coverage of the riots. I think it has been a particularly grim period for journalism. It was led that way, in many ways, in the initial outburst of violence by the 24hr rolling news.
I found it staggering, the way news presenters were editorialising. They were showing film of what was going on in Tottenham, and they were saying: "there is no political element to this, this is just vandalism, this is just people looting" … without any sense of what the background to this was. Without any attempt to put it in its context.
We saw Sky News reporters walking down the streets, filming people on their phones and saying, "I come from round here, I can't believe what I'm seeing, are you proud of yourself?" As if they were headmasters.
That's not journalism. Journalism should be the pursuit of the truth and the pursuit of knowledge. And we weren't seeing knowledge there. We were getting the vicarious thrills of being in the middle of a riot. The Daily Mail's view? "Give this man an award". I don't think it's award-winning journalism personally – because it told me nothing.
It told me nothing because I've been in a riot. I've fought with policemen. I've kicked in shop windows. I've stole from shops. Alot of people haven't, but I have. And I understand the frustrations that come from being in that underclass, where you're written off, where you're given no opportunities. And you're demonised. You're demonised by the media and you're demonised by the political system. It was 30 years ago, but I felt the same way they [the rioters] did.
The way the media was quick to put it all down to a sense of consumerism. "They've all got Blackberrys". Well, a Blackberry doesn't cost very much actually. But I'll tell you what – what alot of the kids who where there [rioting] don't have is expectations. The poverty of expectation, the poverty of belief in what you can do with your life…
But of course, the newspapers were more concerned with taking the opposite view. The Daily Express – the headline – "Flaming Morons". Which says to you: these people don't deserve to be treated well, they don't deserve to be regarded as human beings. And all through that whole week of rioting… the narrative was all about that. It was all about criminality. It's all about not being able to explain, about not being able to understand. As if this came all out of the blue and surprised us.
This has been building for four or five years. And the only people who appear to be surprised about it are journalists and politicians. So we have this situation where the government now is allowed to move the dialogue on and suddenly blame gangs. And the newspapers are rushing to report this, and agree with it.
In every time of economic turmoil, where poverty is building, there have been riots over the years. There has also been the instinctive urge to blame gangs. It goes back to the 1870s and the 1880s and the High Rip [gang] in Liverpool. So they [gangs] are easy targets.
And what it does: you don't need to get beyond the surface, you can just point fingers. And this is what's disappointed me from the newspapers especially in the last few weeks.
I can understand the superficiality of television. But you know, I can't understand that newspapers, where you've got time, you've got the chance to talk to people, the anonymity that's guaranteed in print, that no one's gone out to talk to the people who were doing this, who were out there.
… Sky News ran a piece with four kids, where they discussed the reason that they rioted. And they were very articulate about it. They talked about how they had attempted to fit in to normal society, but had been turned back at every turn. You know, it's easy to understand. But again, that piece was undermined by the payoff, which talked about criminal behaviour. If this was about criminal behaviour, if this was about violence, if this was just about feral kids running out of control, we'd see it every weekend.
We saw spontaneous outbursts of it because this society's mantra is "there is no society". Why would you expect these kids to care about people around them?
And yet, there was no sense of blaming the politicians for this environment that they've created. It's all about punishment. It's all about victimisation, it's all about marginalising people who've got the least voice. That's what's really disappointed me. And I don't see it getting any better.
Unfortunately I don't think there's a will to understand in this country. And I also think there is an instinctive fear in some journalists – quite alot of them – to actually confront the preconceptions of the mass of the British public.
This is a time when journalism has been trusted probably about as little as it's ever been trusted. And what people don't want to do is say to the people who say "they're louts, send them to the army, hang them, shoot them", no, you're wrong, think about it. It's easier to go along with public perceptions…
But that's not our role. Our role is to come up with the truth. And I don't believe we've got to the truth in the last few weeks.

My comments above say it all. I was expecting a marginal product given the low price. What I received was an extremely attractive, high quality, genuine leather case. It even feels good to the touch!
Great case, durable, great quality. Have recommended this to family and friends.
The Leather Case was beautiful, but it didn't fit the Kindle Fire. Maybe it was meant for the standard Kindle. Don't buy this for the Kindle Fire.
This cover is lovely, but it does NOT hold my Kindle Fire HD. I will be returning this product for a refund.
The Kindle case was delivered in a timely manner and was exactly as pictured on the web-site. The Kindle Fire second generation that I own fits perfectly inside the case. I am pleased with the case. It is perfect for protecting my Kindle when I drop it in my bag and it makes the Kindle more comfortable and "book-like" to hold when reading. It is exactly what I wanted and expected at a reasonable price. The only flaw is the stained plastic window inside the case where you would keep an ID.
This was a great gift for my daughter. She loved it.
I was very impressed with the quality and color of my Kindle Fire case. Compared to others I have seen online, the price was much lower. I am very happy with my purchase!
the product is of good quality and was delivered quickly
It is well padded and will protect the Kindle if dropped. It is also decent looking and is comfortable to hold.
Ordered a cover for my friend's "Kindle Fire"! I was easy to order...Arrived as promised and exact as was shown...I just love to order from them...

Twitter officially announced changes in version 1.1 of its Application Programming Interface (API), sparking outrage from developers and users.
The changes to the new API will limit how often third-party twitter clients and other services can access information on Twitter. While some of the changes will help Twitter reduce the number of spam accounts and bots that mar the service, they will also impose significant limitations to third-party applications.
Follow us
Under the new API rules, any new app that aims to serve more than 100,000 users will now require Twitter's explicit permission. Meanwhile, apps which already have more than 100,000 users will be allowed to expand by 200 percent, after which they will need Twitter's approval to expand further. According to numerous critics, these changes will stifle innovation.
The changes are part of Twitter's overhaul of its API. An API allows applications to share content with each other and enables different parts of a program to communicate together. In this case, Twitter's API has allowed for the development of wildly popular third-party services such as Twitpic, Tweetdeck, and Hootsuite.
Announcing the new rules, Twitter's director of Consumer Product Michael Sippey said the changes aim to "deliver a consistent Twitter experience."
"If your application displays Tweets to users, and it doesn't adhere to our Display Requirements, we reserve the right to revoke your application key," wrote Sippey in a company blog post.
While the changes are not expected to immediately impact end users, developers have expressed outrage and heavily criticized Twitter's new strategy. Instapaper developer Marco Arment, for instance, encouraged developers who were building on Twitter to "start working on another product."
"Twitter has left themselves a lot of wiggle room with the rules," Arment wrote in a blog post. "Effectively, Twitter can decide your app is breaking a (potentially vague) rule at any time, or they can add a new rule that your app inadvertently breaks, and revoke your API access at any time," warned the developer. "Of course, they've always had this power. But now we know that they'll use it in ways that we really don't agree with."
"I sure as hell wouldn't build a business on Twitter, and I don't think I'll even build any nontrivial features on it anymore," Arment added.

The trouble begins when the only male ape dies. To save the rest, the officer and his side-kick sneak in to Zurich and steal an ape from a German circus. This results in a promotion for the officer, and now he and his partner are assigned to protect the ravens in the Tower of London. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

The Best Places To Meet Singles That You Never Thought Of
How would you like to meet a potential date everyday?
Sometimes dating is depressing because you really just want one person that you think is awesome and vice versa. How many dates wouldn't most singles trade just to have one person who could make them feel "special"?
I already know the answer, all of them. No matter how much any of us enjoys our single lifestyle, we have a need and desire to express love and be loved.
Unfortunately getting to the "one" sometimes requires going through the sea of plenty of fish and a couple of frogs.
There is no way to enjoy dating if at first you don't enjoy meeting people. Right now you hate it because you feel like others are judging you. Why not, you're judging them.
Every time we meet a potential date we can't help but fast-forward to the future, is this person the "one". We hate dating because we want to know if we're wasting our time or not, and a host of other questions.
I can't answer them. Let's take it one step at a time. Let's meet people who want to date us and go from there. The question I'm always asked is where do you meet these people.
Where can you meet quality potential dates and actually get them to agree to go out with you?
Obviously, you're best bet is where there is little to no competition. You want to go places where your dates aren't expecting to meet. As with every man I've ever met, it was always in the unlikely of circumstances, the difference is that I was aware enough not to let them get away.
I want you to do the same.
A few years ago I thought I didn't have any control over my love life. I did what many singles tend to do, especially women, I read books. I thought if I know how to act in a relationship I would be happier in a relationship then I realized I wasn't in a relationship. AND I was never going to be in one if I never met the right person.
I wish I could tell you that it's just a matter of luck but it actually takes effort, meeting these fantastic people. Why? Because everyone wants to meet them, date them and claim them for their own. I know this from experience. I'm a catch, I'm attractive, and lots of men want to date me. This isn't a personal opinion, although I have a healthy self-esteem, it's what I experience everyday. I know its possible to attract these people into your life because that's how I meet all the time.
You can meet potential dates going about your day, in the very same places you already frequent, you only need to be aware and prepared.
The best places to meet single men and women that you have never thought of.
Starbucks In case you haven't noticed the country is going through an economic downturn. This is driving a lot of eligible singles to go back to school or start their own business; most of them are moving their office and library to the comforts of Starbucks and other coffee shops.
As someone who works from home, I can tell you it's sometimes the hardest place to actually get work done. Many professionals who are starting businesses, studying for degrees are doing so at local coffee shops.
You may need to try a few to find out which ones have the best traffic of good-looking people but it's worth it. Not only will people approach you or you them. There are lots to talk about.
Take a book or your own projects and don't be afraid to start conversations.
The Gas Station- All you need to ask is, "How do you like that car, I just test drove one last week." Lie or not, it's a great conversation starter. If their interested you can admit that you haven't been looking for new cars you just wanted to say hello and couldn't think of anything else. Trust me, they will be flattered.
It doesn't matter how you start a conversation, it just matters that you start one. I have gone to extra lengths to talk to good-looking men at the gas station and I did it because my love life is important to me.
Hotel bars- No one ever thinks of going to a hotel in the city that they live in, unless its Miami, NYC or LA. In my city I often frequent hotel bars because I know that's where the men are.
In the past going to a hotel was the game plan of groupies and gold diggers but there are many men and women in sales and consulting that frequently travel. If you don't think there are enough potential dates in your city you need to start checking for imports.
The Mall. If you didn't know that America loves to spend money, I want you to know that America loves to spend money. I enjoy to people watch but I find that any mall is a great place to meet eligible singles because when people have "free" time, they enjoy retail therapy. Its a one stop shop for most people to get what they need, be it something for themselves or a thoughtful gift for someone else.
It's a relaxed environment and there is no competition. Many singles will have their guards down and it's very easy to say, "Excuse, do you know where there's an ATM?" (Because that map is just too complicated)
Are you ready to take your dating life to the next level? I believe in you!
