If Adobe can position itself as an open platform advocate, it will be one of the great feats of modern marketing. The company has spent the last few years being bashed — and banned — from Apple's mobile products. After Steve Jobs wrote an open letter explaining Apple's distaste for Adobe's product Flash last month, Adobe is fighting back.
Today, the company launched a digital and print campaign extolling the company's affinity for digital freedoms and openness. The trouble is, Adobe is not an open platform. This could be a hard sell.

HTML5 is coming, and a growing number of companies are trying to kick the Flash habit, even if on a limited basis. The latest: popular online document sharing service Scribd.
According to the startup's CTO, "We are scrapping three years of Flash development and betting the company on HTML5 because we believe HTML5 is a dramatically better reading experience than Flash."

The iPhone OS 4 SDK was released last week, but it's not all good news for iPhone (and iPad) developers. That's because Section 3.3.1 of the iPhone Developer Program License Agreement comes with a new catch:
Applications may only use Documented APIs in the manner prescribed by Apple and must not use or call any private APIs.

Myriad are the complaints from developers and consumers who have had to deal with wonky Flash programming. But Apple has drawn a line in the sand with its refusal to support Flash on its mobile products, and the repurcussions are continue to be felt.
Flash currently flourishes online, but more and more companies are opting out of using it. First a few publishers came out with iPad friendly websites. And now the Open Video Alliance, which includes Mozilla, Kaltura, and Yale Law School, has announced plans to get video on Wikipedia – Flash-free.

The battle between Adobe Flash and HTML5 is a subject that looks like it will be receiving a lot of attention in 2010. That has a lot to do with the iPad, which, like the iPhone, isn't expected to support Flash.
Some believe HTML5 could kill off Flash (and for that matter Silverlight), others don't. Of course, the full HTML5 spec probably won't be finished for another decade, but the debate over HTML5 and its impact on Flash is heating up because subsets of it are available and being adopted.

Adobe's recent $1.8bn purchase of analytics provider Omniture had many people scratching their heads. While Adobe's CEO called the acquisition a "no-brainer" and it just might turn out to be a very wise strategic move, it's certainly possible that some Omniture customers will ask questions about the future of the company now that it's an Adobe company.
So I was interested to come across a Coremetrics ad addressing the Omniture acquisition. It leads to a landing page designed specifically for current Omniture customers and wastes no time in making a sales pitch.

When it comes to the desktop, Flash Player is one of the more dominant plugins. Adobe claims it's "the world's most pervasive software platform...reaching 99.0% of Internet-enabled desktops". There's just one problem: internet-enabled mobiles are where much of the internet's future growth is usage is expected to come from.
But Adobe is trying to make sure that Flash Player is as dominant on the mobile as it is on the desktop and is making lots of announcements about its Open Screen Project at the Adobe developer conference in Los Angeles today.

On the heels of Adobe's quarterly earning call, where they announced the grim news about software sales, they also announced the acquisition of Omniture. Is this a play to be a player in the analytics market, to have a strong presence in the SAAS space, to take advantage of Omniture's recurring revenue model, or something else?

Adobe's Flash product may be one of the most widely used platforms for creating content on the web, but web content today is only as good as the number of people who see it. To help encourage the act of sharing, Adobe announced Monday a new product called Flash Platform Services for Distribution.
Adobe says the online distribution service allows developers to make their applications compatible with most social networks and mobile operating systems, and will make content more easily shareable by users.

If M&A activity is a good indicator of the health of the economy, there's hope for a recovery, at least in tech. Newsworthy acquisitions are becoming more frequent and yesterday saw a billion-dollar deal with Adobe's announcement that it is purchasing business optimization software provider Omniture.
The deal, which is valued at $1.8bn, was hailed by Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen as "a game changer for both Adobe and our customers". And it better be, as Adobe's offer of $21.50 per share for Omniture stock represents a 24% premium to Omniture's closing price on Tuesday.

Flu Shots
Each year, over 30,000 people die from the flu. Over 200,000 people are hospitalized with complications. Getting the yearly flu shot (vaccine) is your best protection from the flu.
Influenza (Flu)
The seasonal flu refers to several common strains (specific forms) of flu virus that go around each year, mainly in the fall and winter. A yearly shot (vaccine) can help prevent it.
Why Get A Yearly Flu Shot?
The flu is more than just a "bad cold." It's a virus that...
Infects the respiratory system - This includes the nose, throat and lungs.
Can spread easily - People with the flu spread infected droplets when they cough or sneeze, which you can contract by inhaling or touching these droplets.
Can have severe effects - The flue can be serious for anyone, but young children and older people, and those with chronic health conditions are most at risk.
Changes every year - that's why you need a new shot each year.
Common Flu Symptoms Include:
Body Aches
Extreme Tiredness or Weakness
Dry Cough
Stuffy or Runny Nose
Sore Throat
A nasal spray vaccine is also available. However, certain people should not get this vaccine. Ask your healthcare provider what?s right for you!
Yearly Flu Shots and Children: What parents need to know...
Which children need flu shots? Every child from 6 to 23 months old should get a flu shot each year. Children under 6 months are too young for the shot. Also children of any age who are considered "at risk" need flu shot. Children "at risk" include those with:
Breathing problems, such as asthma and cystic fibrosis
HIV/AIDS, cancer or other conditions that weaken the immune system
Blood disease, including anemia and sickle cell
Heart or kidney disease
Don't Believe Flu Shot Myths!
During flu season, other illness (such as colds and bronchitis) can cause breathing problems. Don't blame the flu shot. The truth is:
You can't get the flu from a flu shot!
Flu shots don't cause asthma or make it worse.
Flu Shots Help Protect the Community.
Children spread the flu more easily than other people. Children who get the flu shot help protect others from the flu.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Is the flu the same as the "stomach flu"? No. The so-called "stomach flu" is not caused by the flu virus.
Many people in good health get the flu shot to protect their health. They also want to avoid inconvenience and lost work time caused by the flu.
For more information about the flu and low- or no cost flu shots, contact:

Missouri and Arizona State will take the field for the 7th time when they square off Saturday night in Columbia, Mo., and the winner will break a 3-3 deadlock from the previous six matchups.
The Sun Devils tied the series up with an exciting 37-30 overtime win in Tempe last season.
Saturday will mark ASU's first game in Columbia since 1990, when MU upset the 21st-ranked Sun Devils by a 30-9 score in Columbia.
That avenged a 19-3 loss in Tempe in the year before, which followed consecutive wins by Mizzou in Tempe in 1977 (15-0) and in Columbia in 1974 (9-0).
The first-ever meeting between Mizzou and Arizona State was a wild affair in the 1972 Fiesta Bowl, won in 49-35 fashion by ASU in its home stadium.
In what was the 2nd edition of the fledgling bowl game, there was 1,129 yards of total offense, including a massive 718 for ASU (MU had 411 yards).

Court orders water fee refunds for some
Some Farmers and ranchers will get fees they have been paying on water rights back under a decision by the Third District Appellate Court in Sacramento. The California Farm Bureau and other groups brought suit saying the fees were an unconstitutional tax in that they were not passed by a two-thirds majority of the legislature. The court ordered that the fees be repaid to those who filed petitions. It is not clear if the state will appeal the decision to the Supreme Court.
Propane shortage worries farmers
Citrus farmers in the San Joaquin Valley have another problem with which to cope, a lack of propane. They use this clean burning fuel to power wind machines, which offer frost protection. Additional cold weather is predicted for the weekend in the growing region, and without propane lemon growers are fearful their trees may be frozen and they would lose the trees as well as the crop. Farmers have been told two refineries are off line for maintenance and to repair damage.
Cold has damaged olive trees
Olive growers across the state are assessing frost damage to their trees. The freezing temperatures are especially harmful to recently planted young trees. Many producers of boutique olive oil have young orchards, which have been damaged. These plantings are in areas such as Napa and Sonoma Counties as well as traditional locations in the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys. The Olive Growers Council says table olive production was about half of average following the freeze in 1990.
Milk price hike won't cover farm production costs
California dairy farmers will get an average increase of 12 cents a gallon February 1 for their top grade milk, or an average $1.31 a gallon, according to the California Department of Agriculture. The increase will still not be enough for farmers to meet their production costs. The increase came about when the department revised the formula used to set milk prices to include dry whey. But the price is higher than last year when the February 1 price was $1.25 a gallon.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Matt McGloin had been waiting to make this call.
The seconds were ticking down in Penn State's 34-7 win Saturday over Navy, so the senior quarterback got teammates Jordan Hill and Gerald Hodges to sneak up behind rookie head coach Bill O'Brien to douse him with a bucket of water.
"I said `Hey listen, it's his first win as a head coach. You've got to give it to him,"' McGloin said with a laugh.

More college football coverage |
It was too much to resist. Penn State football finally had a victory to celebrate.
McGloin threw for 231 yards and four touchdowns, Allen Robinson torched the Midshipmen secondary with 136 yards and three scores, and the Nittany Lions (1-2) rolled to the morale-boosting win following two draining losses to open a season of change in Happy Valley.
"In many ways, it was a long time coming," said O'Brien, soaking wet while speaking to reporters after the game. "All the hard work they've put in this week, it finally paid off ... But it's just one win. We've got to soak it in tonight but get back to work on Monday."
Penn State hadn't come off the field victors since last Nov. 19 at Ohio State. That was soon after former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was charged with child sex abuse and the late Joe Paterno was fired. O'Brien was hired in January as Paterno's replacement, and the Penn State program was slammed with NCAA sanctions in July over the school's handling of the Sandusky case.
Among the penalties, the school was forced to vacate all its wins since 1998, so technically that 20-14 victory over the Buckeyes didn't even count. The Nittany Lions last official win was 35-10 over Wisconsin on Nov. 22, 1997.
"When you think about all the things they've been through - it's a pretty neat group of kids," O'Brien said. "I just feel great for these football players here at Penn State today."
Gee Gee Greene ran for 70 yards for the Midshipmen (0-2) and scored on a 12-yard run to end the Penn State shutout with 10:03 left.
Too little, too late, for mistake-prone Navy.
Linebacker U forced four turnovers including Mike Hull's 74-yard fumble return to make it 34-0 in the fourth quarter. Navy was beset by seven penalties for 41 yards.
"It's uncharacteristic of us. We didn't play well. I didn't coach well," said Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo. "We've got to play mentally perfect to have a chance against a team like Penn State. We didn't come close, not even close."
Faint chants of "Bill O'Brien" echoed out of the stands after the two teams exchanged handshakes at midfield following the final whistle. The Nittany Lions avoided going 0-3 for the first time since 2001.
"For Coach O'Brien that was big because of all the hard work he's put in for us," said Hill, who recovered a Navy fumble. "And for us, too. All the hard work that we've put in and everything we've been through. Just to get one game under our belts, one win under our belts, now we feel like we're just going to get it rolling."
The Nittany Lions offense rolled from the start against Navy.
On a play fake, McGloin scrambled right and found tight end Jesse James in the end zone for a 2-yard touchdown catch and a 7-0 lead on the game-opening drive. More than five minutes later, McGloin hit Robinson with a pass at about the 10, but the sophomore two-stepped around defensive back Tra'ves Bush to jog untouched into the end zone for a two-touchdown lead.
McGloin was 13 of 21 passing. Robinson caught five passes, cementing his status as the favorite target in the revamped Penn State offense.
"I think it was all about game-planning and good route combinations called," Robinson said.
Some luck was involved, too, when a deflected pass landed in Robinson's hands in the end zone for a 25-yard touchdown reception to make it 27-0 in the third quarter.
Linebacker Gerald Hodges got in on Penn State's turnover party, intercepting an underthrown pass in the flat by Navy quarterback Trey Miller, who was flushed out of the pocket under pressure. That turnover set up a drive that ended with another Robinson touchdown.
Just like in its season opener to Notre Dame two weeks ago, Navy allowed touchdowns on its opponents' first three offensive series.
And just like two weeks ago, Navy limped home to Annapolis with another double-digit loss.
"We're going to have a hard time beating high school teams if we don't take care of the football, much less a program like Penn State," Niumatalolo said.
Miller, who had both feet heavily taped, injured his right ankle in the 50-10 loss to the Irish. Appearing to walk with a slight limp, Miller was ineffective in the pocket, rushing 18 times for 21 yards and going 6 of 13 passing for 17 yards and an interception.
"He's still a little ginger on that ankle," Niumatalolo said. "Not everything that happened was his fault; he was running for his life."
Penn State stepped up the pressure on Miller to try to contain Navy's triple-option attack. For the most part, it worked early, with linebacker Michael Mauti leading the way with 12 tackles and a sack.
Freshman backup quarterback Keenan Reynolds entered in the third quarter to get Navy from its own 21 to the Penn State 26 before another mistake - this time a fumble by Noah Copeland at the line of scrimmage.
Hull emerged out of a swarm of blue shirts and raced down the middle of the field untouched 74 yards for a 34-0 lead. The creaky Beaver Stadium press box swayed as fans rocked the stands.
Navy now has six lost fumbles in its first two games after losing nine all of last year.
Those turnovers were costly for Navy, which otherwise was able to keep up with Penn State's new-fangled offense modeled after the attack O'Brien coordinated while he was with the New England Patriots. Navy outgained Penn State in total offense 371-341 and held the ball for 36 minutes.
But much of Navy's yardage came in the fourth quarter with the game well in hand for Penn State. Another bright spot for the Midshipmen came on fourth downs, when Navy converted 5 of 8 chances.
Before they left the field, the Nittany Lions started a new tradition initiated by O'Brien, gathering in front of the Blue Band to sing the alma mater.
And for first time in the new era of Penn State football, Nittany Lion fans went home happy.
Bill O'Brien is all smiles following Penn State's 34-7 win over Navy, the first in his tenure as coach. (AP) |

When I first started developing an "online presence" I, like most newbies, thought that everyone who ever put an eBook together must have had something unique to say. I wanted to know everything I could about the ways of social media and more than anything wanted to make a big splash for myself.
What I found over time was that most people writing eBooks are just re-purposing the same set of "must haves/must reads/must do's" and that making a big splash online wasn't really me in the first place. I found that what really made me happy was building my business from the real me.
Having gone through this experience, I would like to make three suggestions for anyone trying to build an online presence for either fun or profits (or both):
- Start by understanding you! Social media and the internet allow for you to present yourself in anyway that you like. Lasting success online will come by building from the real you.
- Build organically! Great conversations with people who know, like, and trust you are always better than "spitting in the wind."
- Learn the proper blend of life and business. I really don't care what you had for lunch, but do want to know enough about you to suggest your favorite quiescence when we meet for a business lunch. I want to do business with the real you!
What lessons have you learned in your time online? How to you share the real you in the online world? What suggestions do you have for new people/businesses trying to make there way in social media?

Hot chicks: At 60, Peeps more popular than ever
BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) — It's Easter morning. A boy rouses his younger brother, and they run to the living room to find their baskets filled with — what else? — Peeps.
"Peeps are THE candy of Easter," the excited boy tells his wide-eyed sibling, who pops a yellow marshmallow chick in his mouth.
"You can eat 'em, smash 'em, microwave 'em, deep fry 'em, roast 'em on a stick," the boy explains. That's not all. You can make "historically accurate Peeps dioramas ... Peeps pop art ... You can make a Peeps topiary." On he goes, all day and night. "Peeps jousting ... hide-and-go Peeps ... Peepshi ... that's sushi made out of Peeps."

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Management, autocracy, tyranny
At week's end, we have some smart columnists reflecting on what we've been learning about Harper's leadership through the combined controversy over Guergis-Jaffer and the parliamentary showdown over Afghan documents. There's our own Chantal Hébert and then, some other must-reads:
Paul Wells, in Macleans, has some important insights into the PM's obsession with secrecy. I particularly like this turn of phrase:
But this Prime Minister cannot help himself. If he knows something you don't, he values that thing out of all proportion to its true worth.
And this little snippet should give us all pause.
During the 2006 election, one Conservative staffer was assigned to stake out the coffee shop where Liberal staffers would pause from long days in their party's campaign war room. History doesn't record that the overheard chit-chat did the Conservatives any good, but it made the leader feel better. Today, reporters seeking comment on any story are quizzed at length about their intentions. They may or may not get a call back with any information. But the information they surrender is collated and analyzed for trends on the issues that interest the media.
I'm betting the PMO is now wishing they paid as much attention to Mr. Jaffer's website and conversations as they do to reporters. As I mentioned on CBC this week, it takes the PMO approximately 10 minutes within putting something online to let reporters know that we've done something to offend the folks at Langevin. It took more than seven months after Mr. Jaffer's arrest for the PMO to exhibit any curiosity about his post-political dealings.
The other must read of today is Dan Gardner's column in the Citizen. He apologizes for his alarmist tone, but I'm glad someone is rattling people's attention about this parliamentary standoff. If you thought prorogation was a slap in the face to democracy, pay some overall attention to the trend line here, Gardner is warning.
Most Canadians have little or no understanding of how parliamentary government works, and Stephen Harper has consistently stoked that ignorance and used it to his advantage. He governs like a president, and since Canadians' understanding of government comes mostly from American television and movies, that seems reasonable.
What people don't realize, however, is that the American president is restrained by institutional checks and balances, including a strong and independent Congress. Stephen Harper is subject to no such checks and balances: If he is a president, he is a one-man government.
Errol Mendes calls it "prime ministerial autocracy." In 17th-century England, they had a simpler term for it. It is "tyranny."

Well, you do have a point.
However, I promised myself that I wouldn't waste the time of many people to release songs that are just going to be bashed all over the web. I realize that the "majority" do not want my music on the game. I'm tired of getting all the emails telling me to get cancer and die. I am sick of going into live streams and the chats turning into huge discussions as to why I suck. I'm sick of the fake supporters on YouTube comments who end up telling me to eat a dick after a few hours of comments.
But instead of quitting making music, which is something I like to do, I decided to instead not charge people for it. I would put the songs on Rock Band almost instantaneously had there been a free option included on the XNA framework. But Microsoft feels the need to take money from indie developers, so they don't have that option.
I thought I was doing the right thing by offering it for free, rather than charging even a dollar. But if you guys are really pissed off over it, I'll consider it.

People seriously send you death threats because you released a pair of Chiptune songs on RBN? Dear lord, some people have huge, huge issues.
Author for Freen in Green Freelance
It only happened once, but yeah, it happened.
I didn't mean to turn this into a discussion over releasing some content on Rock Band.
The main reason I am hesitant of putting the songs on the game is because my XNA expires in a few months, and I seriously doubt I'd be able to get them out alongside the other stuff I'm trying to release. In my mind, helping others get their songs on the game is a higher priority than putting my own stuff on the game, especially since more people are interested in acts such as Ashilyn Summers and Unicron than my own music.

Screw Phase Shift. :P
The Cure [1]
Queen [28?]
My Chem. [3]
Oh yeah, with them, I'm just waiting on them to reply to me about getting it into testing.
I've been thinking about the "Missing Chromosomes" situation. I personally would rather release it on Phase Shift for free, since it'd be quicker and be no cost to anyone. However, since my XNA is due to expire soon, if there's any authoring groups interested in releasing the tracks, I've got some expert charts done for each and every song on the album. *Save the bonus track, which once the album is released you'll realize why it's not coming to Rock Band any time soon*

Lion's Whelp : A Ship to Take a Family A-Roving
A family launches an Alden schooner, fit and finished in Maine, to take them around the globe-again. From "Yachtstyle" in our August 2008 issue
For a hair-raising hour, the fog was so thick I could barely see past the schooner's graceful bowsprit as we sailed for the windward mark, a rocky ledge in Maine's Penobscot Bay. It was the 22nd annual Eggemoggin Reach Classic Yacht Regatta, and the wooden boats that loomed suddenly through the fog were some of the most beautiful classic yachts in the world. With mere seconds to alter course, we'd swoop by our opponents with just inches between us and a collision of gorgeous sheer lines, elegant overhangs, and gleaming brightwork. Skippers and crews, many unfamiliar with the conditions, looked tense and pale as ghosts as they disappeared back into the fog; the radio crackled with boats withdrawing from the race. But Lion's Whelp loped confidently onward, gliding prettily past the rocks under the hand of a skipper, Phineas Sprague Jr., who was as steady as granite.
Phineas was 6 years old when he fell in love with the sea. At his family's saltwater farm in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, he'd walk a mile through the woods to his first boat, a leaky 16-foot dory. When his godfather returned from sailing across the Pacific bearing gifts of grass skirts and cowrie shells, a dream began to take shape. By the time he was 13, Phin knew what he wanted to do with his life: "Sail around the world. In a schooner. An Alden schooner."
It's rare that a childhood dream retains its vitality into adulthood, but for Phin Sprague, his dream first became a young man's reality, then gained new momentum later in his life, when the ideals and romanticism that informed his boyhood vision were, if anything, stronger and reinforced by decades of experience. So Phin has lain out plans to sail around the world again-in an Alden schooner, of course.
There is a mythology in sailing, Phin says, that one learns "coming up through the hawsepipe; things you recognize as truths and you really don't understand why or how." For Phin, long-keel schooners still represent the best in sailing. Created without regard for ratings systems, which distort yacht designs to conform to specific rules, they were developed to be relatively fast, seakindly, comfortable, easy for a few people to handle, and able to sail well in harsh conditions.
While conceding that the long-keelers aren't as fast as modern designs, Phin feels the tradeoff in comfort at sea is worth the loss of a knot or two of boat speed. There's also nothing so beautiful to his eye as the long, elegant lines of a schooner drawn by the designers at John G. Alden, Naval Architects. "You sail anything you can get your hands on, but in the final analysis, you want to have something you love to look at. Life is too short to own an ugly boat," Phin says.
In 1972, the 22-year-old Phin and two school friends bought an aging 72-foot John Alden/Aage Nielsen-designed wooden schooner, Mariah. The delivery home to Maine from City Island, New York, may have marked the first dampening of his partners' enthusiasm for cruising. Mariah was an old, leaking, barebones boat without winches or electronics, and they set sail on December 16 into the teeth of a building gale. With no heat, a damaged engine, and rough weather, it wasn't the romantic adventure that the friends envisioned.
A year later, Mariah and her young crew left Newport, Rhode Island, in December to sail around the world. They soon found themselves being blown offshore, overcanvassed, in 45 knots. Sailing too fast, Mariah dropped off a wave; the resulting leaks were bad enough to necessitate hauling her out in Florida. They found nine broken planks and five broken frames, and a month of sweaty boatyard work further eroded the crew's enthusiasm. Still, it wasn't all bad. They visited some Florida beaches, where Phin met a young Canadian nurse named Joanna.
Mariah continued to test her crew's commitment as they sailed south into the Caribbean. After long passages highlighted by water spouts, very physical sailing, and constant maintenance, they made their first celestial-navigation landfall in Panama and limped into port with a failing engine. Here it was that Phin's disillusioned friends stepped ashore and left Mariah for good, but Phin was as happy as he'd ever been. A Yankee embodying the old New England values of inventiveness, cheerful industry, and self-reliance, Phin found the challenges and the serious responsibility to be fulfilling. He was going to sail this schooner around the world, but he needed more crew. He collected a few sailors in Panama, called his brother Seth to join him, and placed a long-distance call to Joanna, the girl he'd known for only a few weeks in Florida. Then Mariah set sail for the Galápagos.
For the next two years, Phin and Joanna, along with Phin's brothers, sister, and various friends, explored the Pacific in the spartan cruising style of the day. In 1975, Phin's and Joanna's families joined them in Bali for the holidays-and a surprise. At Christmas dinner, as Joanna's dad began carving the roast pig, the local minister began an impromptu wedding ceremony. Phin and Joanna were married on deck, under the swaying palms.
Mariah returned home to Maine in 1977, and an account of the voyage was published in Cruising World that June. (See "Voyage of Mariah," Shoreline.) Author Betsy Hitz closed her story with these lines: "Joanna and Phin, now 23 and 26, plan to live ashore for a few years. . . . Mariah is for sale, but Phin assured me, 'There will be another boat!'"
For the next two decades, as they raised their family and developed their Portland, Maine, boatyard, Portland Yacht Services, Phin and Joanna always had an eye out for a replacement for Mariah. They considered many of the very boats that have contributed to the fame and allure of Alden schooners, including Vela, When and If, Malabar X, and Tar Baby. But none of these grand dames seemed up to the task of circumnavigating.
Then one day, Phin stumbled upon an ad: "65-foot Alden schooner hull, strip-plank cold-molded, unfinished. San Diego." This was exciting: What if they could build the exact boat that they desired? After all, they had a boatyard. But building a 65-foot schooner to Phin's exacting standards would require a lot of capital; a partner would be needed. Phin's brother, Abbot, had practically grown up sailing during the first circumnavigation. He wanted to get his own kids involved in cruising, but after his early experiences sailing the demanding Mariah, he had no interest in old schooners. A new boat, on the other hand, was an entirely different proposition.
The two brothers met in San Diego and went to look at the Alden, which was high and dry beside a California freeway. The relentless sun had burned the decks and disintegrated the plastic tarps that once covered the hull, and there was visible rot from a decade of standing water inside. Despite the damage, though, the boat's lines and potential spoke to them, and she was soon on her way across the country back to Maine. Says Phin, "I felt whole again. Ignoring the work of several years that lay ahead, I had my hands on a boat! A boat!"
Abbot and Phineas Sprague's ancestors were Pilgrims, having arrived in New England in 1629 aboard a ship named Lion's Whelp. Subsequent generations of Spragues built a series of pleasure boats that shared the same name. Since the new schooner was to be a family project and would one day carry family members to the far reaches of the world's oceans, it seemed only fitting that she be christened Lion's Whelp.
The hull had a year to dry out indoors while Phin concentrated on the design. Niels Helleberg, the boat's original designer at Alden, worked with him on the layout, deck, and rig. It was clearly an enjoyable experience for both men. Niels calls Phin "an extremely knowledgeable yachtsman with years of experience." The designer was impressed that the project wasn't rushed: They took the time to get every detail exactly right, and it shows, he says, in the finished product. Phin was meticulous about researching options, and after concluding his work with Niels, he designed the interior details and systems installations himself. The result is an intriguing marriage of old and new technologies. The masts, for example, are of carbon fiber painted to look like varnished spruce. Having lost parts of Mariah's rig, Phin wanted beefy masts that would be both strong and flexible. While the sails are still raised using multipart tackle (not winches) and made fast to traditional belaying pins, the halyards are high-tech cordage.

Description: CS61A The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs Instructor Brian Harvey Spring 2008 Introduction to programming and computer science. This course exposes students to techniques of abstraction at several levels: (a) within a programming language, using higher-order functions, manifest types, data-directed programming, and message-passing; (b) between programming languages, using functional and rule-based languages as examples. It also relates these techniques to the practical problems of implementation of languages and algorithms on a von Neumann machine. There are several significant programming projects, programmed in a dialect of the LISP language.

All on this out Mitt Romney.
Video that everybody seems to be talking about -- he's defended that comment that forty -- 7% of Americans you know.
Don't pay income -- taxes he does need to -- they target those people -- are already supporting.
-- the president but as we bring -- from Los Angeles -- deposited the CEO CK.
Restaurants his senior economic advisor to the Romney campaign so the question becomes.
And yesterday was supposed to be all about -- -- the shift in focus of people writing about.
-- Romney would start talking about himself not just attacking the president specially is economic.
Message but instead this is gotten a lot of attention what do you make of -- all.
But what it it has gotten a lot of attention but I think it really does bring bring us back to governor Romney's economic message I think the governor -- -- saying look.
People who don't pay taxes and there's about 47% who don't.
And who depend on the government increasingly are reliant on the government for benefits.
-- in all likelihood not going to find a message of reducing taxes.
And shrinking the size of government appealing right and that about 47% of the people there probably will find that -- aside I don't.
I think it really did focus back on the the economy really the message here is.
It's a free enterprise society message from from governor Romney -- a government centered government dependent message from President Obama.
And I think this conversation really focuses about the focus isn't just.
And -- -- so he was just saying at some -- supported this out it your view that you just pointing out who the undecided voters are and what this election is.
Is really about the one of the -- -- points I thought that was brought this morning but it was not Charles -- was just here he was on.
With not -- on -- in the morning and he his point.
Was that.
-- -- if you think that that's fine but don't give up on those people he thinks that you should take your economic message and try to convince more.
Of those people in the quote unquote 47%.
Paid my way is the right -- should just don't write them off.
And that's what we need to do now that's the message -- that -- the governor will begin to right but it wasn't the message in the city over.
That's not the message in the video the message in the video was -- that it was an attempt to describe to people.
How does how the landscape was set up that doesn't mean that governor Romney's giving up on anybody mean I know people.
Better -- that 47%.
To the last thing in the world they would do would be to vote for President Obama so I don't think anybody's giving up and anybody it is an economic message.
It's the message of made this country great it's why my grandfather came -- -- -- -- -- job he didn't come here for a government benefit.
-- so it it's a message -- should reach everybody and I and I and governor Romney will get that out I think.
He was just trying to explain kind of the political economic landscape and when you when you talk 24 hours a day almost which is what these candidates -- you don't always say things exactly the way you'd like to so.
We know if we're gonna -- done we know that if you about that also cannot -- Are -- world war -- strategy that we ask you one other question is a little bit slightly off this topic but it's about the economy in the campaign because I think if you're talking about this we -- be talking a lot about China.
The president yesterday talked tough on China -- Mitt Romney throughout very tough on China so both candidates have this have hey we're gonna be tough on the Chinese message.
As a business person and -- Romney but as a business person all worried that this is -- -- trade war.
Rhetoric that might be harmful to business are now.
Well that there's always -- a there's always a risk that you -- that we will be I would do something to offend China but what we are China's.
Largest customer.
And the last person in the world coupon to -- if you're in business -- -- largest customer so I think taking a stronger stance with China if China is manipulating its currency.
Why wouldn't political candidates want that to stop if it hurts American manufacturers that hurts American business.
And it's hurting American jobs and it and it's not playing by the rules it's doing something people shouldn't do why wouldn't we take a strong -- to -- didn't stop doing that but the Chinese.
Have historically -- friends of the United States going back to the old imperialistic colonial status and other than the the period under mile we've always had very good relationship been since President Nixon we've been improving relationships self.
I don't see the relationship with China deteriorating or disappearing but I do think we need to let them know.
That we're gonna play by the rules and would like them to play by the rules.
Agree tough balance sometimes and because there's these CEO that CKE restaurants also buses the Romney campaign.

Oil prices have remained stable in 2010 after several wild years and have settled in a pretty high range -- $65 to $85 -- despite record inventories and a stubborn global economic downturn (see "Oversupplied," below). However, for the rest of the year analysts agree that the most important factor for energy prices will be economic recovery (or lack thereof).
Recent economic news remains somber. U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the second quarter of 2010 was revised lower to 1.6% after initially coming out at 2.4%, which is down from 3.7% in the first quarter. New and existing home sales dropped dramatically in July. The Federal Reserve has held interest rates at near zero since late 2008 and maintained its quantitative easing process by reinvesting in mortgage-backed securities in August long after its exit strategy was expected to begin.
Government stimulus has actually altered oil prices from where they should be, says Phil Flynn, senior energy analyst at PFGBest Research. "Every time it looks like the oil market's going to give in to the weight of over supply or it looks like the economy's going to start to get weak, we either hear from the Federal Reserve [that] they're going to keep interest rates low or they drop hints that they're going to print more money, so those threats keep a floor under oil," Flynn says. "There's a $20 premium in oil because of economic stimulus. If we looked at real supply and demand numbers, oil prices wouldn't be flirting with $70, they'd be flirting with $40."
Inventories for crude oil are at record levels, with the Energy Information Administration (EIA) reporting an increase of 4.1 million barrels in stockpiles for the week ended Aug. 20. "There's too much oil coming into the marketplace for the demand scenario that's out there. Summer driving season [ended] with gasoline inventories higher than where they were going into the Memorial Day weekend. That's pretty bearish," Dominick Chirichella, founder of the Energy Management Institute, says.
And some analysts say there's no end in sight for production, which will keep supply high. "Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Iran are not going to cut back production because that's what their economies run on. Inventories are going to remain high because of supply and demand. World economies are [growing] much slower than expected, therefore you're going to see less demand for oil," Keith Springer, president of Capital Financial Advisory Services, says.
However, an excess supply in crude hasn't affected prices as much as it should because of Fed policy and dismal economic conditions. A weak economy usually equals less demand for oil. "The market is telling us that this economic slowdown is going to go on a lot longer than we had originally anticipated. Even the International Energy Agency warned that we could see a substantial demand drop in oil if the economy takes a turn for the worse," Flynn says.
Chirichella says of oil prices, "It's all about the economy. The whole mentality of the U.S. and global economy recovering has been more than enough to keep the attention away from the fact that oil fundamentals are still relatively bearish. No matter where you look right now the global economy is slowing, which means that the consumption of oil is likely to slow accordingly," he says.
The Fed's buyback of Treasuries is another indicator that economic recovery may take longer than originally believed, Rich Ilczyszyn, senior market strategist at Lind Waldock, says. "The prospect of economic growth in the next year [is] subdued from [early 2010]. So as the Fed makes a statement, that shifts all currencies and crude is selling off. Oil has run its natural course. The wild card for energies may be geopolitical tension and hurricanes, but if you're looking at it on a demand basis, oil may retest $70 and it's close to breaking below that," he says. He expects oil to be at $60-70 a barrel by year end, with slower economic recovery and slower manufacturing keeping crude prices relatively low.
Spencer Patton, chief investment officer of Steel Vine Investments, disagrees, and expects crude to go up to $80 a barrel. "Probability favors an economic recovery through the end of the year. A lot of negativity has been priced into the market. I expect the market to be stronger through the end of the year with gains in the S&P 500 which should be positive for crude oil," he says, adding that a lot of negative news has already been priced in for crude, meaning it could have already hit its lows for the year.
Springer, on the other hand, forecasts a weakening economy based on a continued slide of GDP numbers and says crude oil should be in the low $60 per barrel range by year end, absent a geopolitical event.
"The market's perception right now is that if the economy gets better, oil prices will go up, which is probably what will happen at least initially," Flynn says. "[However], the economy [could] get better and oil prices go lower [because] we're going to see the inverse of what drove oil prices up during weak economic times. If the economy gets better, [we'll] raise interest rates, which means the dollar will get stronger, and a stronger dollar will put downward pressure on oil prices. Once we start to get out of this economic muck, we could see a break in oil prices after the initial rally." He expects oil prices to go down into the $40 per barrel range by year end.
Analysts believe the economy is key for the dollar and equities, which will drive crude. "The market looks at equities as the leading indicator for GDP. If equities are going up, GDP is going up and oil consumption is going up and vice versa," Chirichella says. "Unfortunately we're in the vice versa stage right now. Equities are going down, GDP [is going down] and OPEC's pumping away, and inventories are going up," (see "Down and out," below).
Chirichella is bearish on oil for the short to medium-term and says that the outcome of midterm elections in the United States could move oil. "If the Republican party takes the House and makes gains in the Senate, that could result in a decent relief rally in equities and equities are so highly correlated to oil that we could see oil prices get to $75-$80 a barrel," he says, adding that barring that, oil will remain in the trading range of $65-80 for the rest of the year. The EIA puts an almost 50% probability that WTI crude prices will be below $80 a barrel by the end of 2010 (see "Forecasting crude," below).
Natural gas glut
The supply story is once again the driving factor for natural gas prices. Supplies are at record highs and analysts expect them to stay that way. "Natural gas just keeps on flowing. The one constant that exists in the natural gas market is that supply is continuing to run at high levels," Chirichella says, adding that if the economy does continue to slow, it's going to have a negative impact on the consumption of natural gas, increasing supply even further. Unless there is a hurricane, he expects natural gas to trade in the upper $3 to mid $4 range for the rest of the year.
Patton agrees. "The supply and demand picture looks really bad, so the only thing that could save natural gas is a hurricane. Lower prices are coming soon. The only other thing that could help is if there's a policy announcement from the White House saying natural gas is going to be more important to alternative energy (see Cover story). Prices look like they're headed lower, and quickly." He expects natural gas to stay in a range between $3.75 and $5 around the end of 2010.
Ilczyszyn says a stronger dollar short-term will drive down natural gas prices. He expects natural gas to be at $5-$6 at year end.
Flynn expects the hurricane season to end with a glut of natural gas supply and an uncertain economic outlook. "Manufacturing and natural gas prices sometimes go hand in hand, especially when we talk about industrial demand, and if we lower our expectations in the manufacturing sector, we could lower our prices. I'm looking for a spike below $3," he says.
Hurricanes or geopolitical events, as always, remain the wild cards for energy prices. "Oil and natural gas were supported throughout the summer on predictions of a record hurricane season. A lot of the hurricane season has passed us by and we've already seen the hurricane premium being taken out of the market," Flynn says.
Energy fundamentals, however, are a funny thing as Flynn pointed out above. While the global recession is keeping demand down, the Fed's remedy of quantitative easing may be keeping crude prices up. While a sustained recovery may bring back demand, it also will bring the much anticipated exit strategy that would take out that support, making the energy outlook that much more difficult.

Freeney will be 33 in 2 weeks.
Nink is 2 inches taller and almost 4 years younger, he also outplayed Freeney this year.
Wilfork is 15 months younger, and interior DL's last a lot longer than DE's that chase QB's.
Freeney's last great year was 2009.
I think we have a good mix of DE's, we need another DT that can bring pressure up the middle a lot more than an aging DE. Jones in his 2nd year past his injury would automatically be better than Freeney too. Cunningham, Francis...
If Jones can be counted on? Jones had 6 sacks in his first 8 games, got hurt and had 0 sacks in the final 10 games of the season (missing 3 of them). I don't see anything to worry about outside of 100% recovery from the injury.
We've got Jones, Nink, Cunningham, Francis, Bequette, perhaps Scott as well. So we're going to pump up our depth at a position that we already have a bunch of depth at (at good prices) to add an old man by NFL standards, but not add a real top 5 NFL stud? Thankfully BB is in charge.

Glass Boy down!
Jones played in 31 games at Syracuse as a Soph/Jr/Sr. Doesn't seem like he had much trouble with injuries in college.
Baltimore changed the player alignment on the OL and the blocking schemes late in the season, nobody got to Flacco.
You want to bring in a prime pass rusher with some years in front of him? Fine, Freeney isn't that guy, he'd just be another guy. For $2M a year, maybe. Over $5M? Can't see it.

The reason Flacco had time wasn't because our DE's weren't doing their jobs, it was because our interior pass rush was non-existent. Wilfork can't be expected to push the pocket back on his own forever and unfortunately Kyle Love doesn't seem like he's going to be able to help consistently in that regard. Flacco had plenty of room to step into throws, Freeney won't help eliminate that. With a better interior pass rush, Jones and Ninko's sack totals will go up because they have been doing their job with or without the help of an interior rush.
To your point about Jones' health, this is true, it is a legitimate concern and something worth keeping an eye on but I don't like to make assumptions based on very small sample sizes. If Freeney wanted to come here in the same role that Trevor Scott had this past year as a depth piece and situational rusher on short money, I'd be all for it. I don't think Freeney wants to try to win a championship as a backup though, I would imagine he wants to be a starter since he already has a ring.
Patriots Forum Hall of Fame Class of 2013
Jones is a great all around DE. He should be able to consistently put up around 10 sacks a year and play the run well. He's not that quick first step guy. That isn't him. I think a speed rusher off the edge in sub packages to play opposite of Jones or even force him inside in that hybrid DE/DT role (I think he'd be great at it). More pass rush never hurts. Freeney on a 1 year deal I think could work in that role, but I expect he'll get more.
Anquan boldin may get released. Anybody want him on the patriots. The patriots almost traded for him a few years ago.
After the way he played in the playoffs, he'd be worth considering if the price was reasonable. I have a feeling it won't be though. I also don't know that he has a place as a need in our offense either. He's a very good possession receiver but he's not big enough to justify an upgrade on Aaron Hernandez outside the numbers where it would force Hernandez back inside in my mind.
The way I'm looking at our receiving core for next year is Hernandez moving outside the numbers for most of his snaps and seeing a good percentage at the slot and some on the line as well. What I'd really like to see is Ballard playing the second traditional TE spot opposite Gronk. If we could get a big possession receiver to play outside the numbers though, I would have no problem with Hernandez playing on the line and in the slot for almost all of his snaps. Gronk and Hernandez should lead the team in targets next year with 3rd likely being Lloyd. This assumes we let Welker walk and save the money we're paying him for Talib and Vollmer.
Patriots Forum Hall of Fame Class of 2013
Posted this in the Randy Moss thread as well.
After last nights performance from Moss I retract any interest i showed previously. He quit on a number of plays that I saw. Lazy, Lazy, Lazy on the biggest stage. We need a big physical WR. Those win games this time of year (Anquan Boldin) Who will likely be out of Balt. Ed Reed and Boldin would be a damn good offseason for us nevermind what we get out of the draft.
Ed Reed isnt the only one who admires Bill Belichick. Dashon Goldson had some nice words.
Here was the part about Ed Reed and BBGoldson could be another option for the Patriots, who were inconsistent in the back of the secondary, even after Devin McCourty shifted from corner to safety. Goldson visited with the Patriots in 2011 and admitted there was real interest in signing, though he wasn't overwhelmed with a deal and returned to the 49ers on a modest one-year, $2 million contract.
"I really thought highly of it," Goldson said. "I was up in my hotel late at night talking to my agent going back and forth, and I just made the decision and stuck with it."
When pressed for more specifics, Goldson said, "I just think it was a better situation for me to stay in San Francisco. It was based on what was going on over there, how I felt. I still felt I had something to prove. Boston had their stuff intact already, and I just felt the situation would have been different if I had gotten there. I think I made a good decision on staying here and making the best out of it."
Goldson looked at a Patriots roster that included safeties Patrick Chung, James Sanders and Brandon Meriweather, and knew there would be greater competition for playing time. So he stuck with the 49ers, who drafted him in 2007, and made the Pro Bowl the last two years and earned an All-Pro nod this season.
"My football team I was on was a great football team," Goldson said. "The mindset, we were on a building stage, and I want to be a part of that. We had made so many strides, especially for me being there early in 2007. We had made so many strides that we got to the point to where we could get the team to this point."
Goldson would be the 49ers' highest-priority free agent, so they could retain him with the franchise tag for the second consecutive season if negotiations don't materialize in the next few weeks. He even said yesterday he believed he would be back for a seventh season with the Niners.
But Goldson has some good history with Belichick and relished the chance to meet him two summers ago. He could be the Patriots' X-factor if the 49ers don't secure him quickly enough.
"Bill is a good guy," Goldson said. "We sat down, talked football. He stressed how he wanted me there and let me know what it was going to take. My hat is off to him."
There's one reason why Ed Reed wears a cut-off sweatshirt around the Ravens' facility.
It's Bill Belichick.
And there is one head coach outside of the 49ers who has drawn an immense amount of respect from Dashon Goldson.
It's Bill Belichick.
The Patriots' answer at safety could very well be playing Sunday night in Super Bowl XLVII, as Reed and Goldson will be unrestricted free agents this offseason. Surely, it won't be easy for anyone to pry Reed or Goldson from the only teams they've ever known, particularly when each organization is performing at such a high level.
But the Patriots have a heck of a recruiting tool. The mutual respect between Belichick and Reed has been well-known since the Pro Bowl at the conclusion of the 2006 season. They can't help but glow over one another, and Reed was asked yesterday if he could see himself playing for Belichick.
"Yeah, oh yeah, man, I could definitely play for coach Belichick," Reed told the Herald. "He is a great coach. I'm sure he can help me to expand my football knowledge even more as a player and as a coach, so if I'm ever able to be around him, just like I was at the Pro Bowl, it's huge.
"It's the reason why I wear my sweater cut off a little bit. He's the first guy I saw like, 'That's cool.' You know, that's cool. He cuts those sweater sleeves, and he'll be comfortable. So there's a reason why. Most people will tell you around the facility that's how I look. It's just a blessing to even have met, to know coach Belichick."
The biggest hindrance would be Reed's willingness, or lack thereof, to leave the Ravens after 11 seasons. He'll be the unquestioned face of the defense after linebacker Ray Lewis retires, and his legacy will be on the line, regardless of Sunday's outcome. The Ravens could also place the franchise tag on Reed, but with quarterback Joe Flacco and several other key starters hitting free agency, it's no certainty they would tag Reed.
Gronk is an idiot but I love him (antics wise and football wise)

I've heard great things about oil pulling.
I have really bad tooth staining on the inside of my teeth - not the outside ... I am fairly sure it is coming from eating berries ... Does anyone have solutions for this, besides going to the dentist?

coconut oil pulling in particular.
ahaha i just started doing that again ... TODAY. I've been browsing through the forums, reading up on it again. I did it around an year ago, but I got lazy :P
Does coconut oil actually help STAINING or just reduces plaque/bacteria?
After I switched from conventional toothpaste with its glycerin and artificial whitening agents to a more natural version, I noticed my teeth weren't as white as they had been. Brushing with baking soda helps dramatically! Just be sure to only do it once or twice a week max as baking soda is a mild abrasive. If you want extra whitening power, brush with hydrogen peroxide after your regular tooth care routine.

I've always heard gargling with hydrogen peroxide once or twice a day works on stains, but I've never actually tried it. I'm impressed you can even see the inside of your teeth that well!
...although I've never actually tried so maybe mine are just as stained and I've never noticed...
